The tight schedule of lecture activities requires accuracy so that it always runs smoothly. Lecturer assignments play an important role to ensure the smooth lecture activities. Problems that often occur in the assignment of these lecturers need to be avoided. In an effort to reduce the risk of problems that occur in the assignment of lecturers, it is necessary to make a structured system with the right method. Hungarian method can be said very appropriate for this assignment problem because each course will only be charged to one lecturer. Another advantage of using the hungarian method in this lecturer assignment model is also because it uses the preferences of prospective lecturers as subjects of measurement. Each lecturer will take courses according to their best preferences with the expectation that the lecturer will have more mastery in the courses that he will teach.

Batik is an Indonesian intangible cultural heritage that needs to be preserved. Indonesia has a variety of batik patterns such as Sasambo (Sasak, Samawa, and Mbojo) batik patterns from West Nusa Tenggara. This study aims to develop Sasambo batik patterns by using the Lindenmayer System (L-System). The Sasambo batik patterns developed in this study are of two types: Lumbung (rice barn) and Kangkung (water spinach) patterns. By applying the L-System, there are three different ways that can be done, namely (1) making the Sasambo batik patterns as axioms, (2) making the batik patterns as generators, and (3) combining the Sasambo patterns with fractals. Based on the new patterns produced using the L-System, the selection of generators should have the initial and final segments which are both in a single line position, so that the original patterns unchanged.

Based on the result of the researches on  text book materials under 2013 curriculum published by  the government, for elementary school level, it is found that the materials from one competence to another on those books are not well-integrated, even the competences are elaborated in single theme or subtheme. Though those text books are entitled “Integrated Thematic Book of Curriculum 2013”, they still do not show the integration they should give. It is assumed that the disordered materials are caused by the absence of a certain field of knowledge that should be used as a binder and medium of transmitting and integrating the whole competences in case the material changes. Regarding the problem, this article delivers a brief description on how Indonesian language is used to bind and become a medium of transmission of the whole nonintegrated field of competences from any different materials. In other word, this article presents a conceptual model of designing integrated thematic learning on the basis of the language as a medium of transferring knowledge

Field experiments were conducted to study the effect of biochar with/without FYM and inorganic fertilizers on soil productivity of cotton – maize – cowpea based cropping system and to examine the direct, cumulative and residual effects of biochar on soil properties at field No.36 B, Eastern block, TNAU, Coimbatore, on an Inceptisol belongs to Periyanaickenpalayam series and Vertic Ustropept in USDA classification. The study reveals that application of biochar irrespective of levels, increased the available N, P and K of the post harvest clay loam soil of cotton. The effect was increased with corresponding increase in the rate of application. Significant improvement was found when biochar was applied in conjunction with fertilizers and FYM. Among the treatments, the trend of results were significantly higher in biochar @ 10 t + 100 % NPK + FYM followed by biochar @ 10 t + 75% NPK + FYM treatment which was statistically on par with biochar @ 7.5 t + 100 % NPK + FYM treatment. Similar trend of direct effect was registered in the post harvest soil of maize grown under both cumulative (continuous application) and residual (one time application) studies. However, the effect was higher under cumulative study than the residual study. Similar trend of results were also registered in the post harvest soil of cowpea under both the cumulative residual (residual effect of continuous application) and second residual (second residual effect of one time application) studies. A significant improvement in the soil properties of post harvest soil of cowpea under second residual study was also recorded. Thus, proving the biochar’s ability to sustain the soil fertility over long run.

Identidade cristã
Authors: Tepe Valfredo
Published: December 2020

Os critérios da “identidade cristã” devem ter caráter global, abarcando todos os cristãos e distinguindo-os dos que não o são. O mistério trinitário e o discipulado de Cristo satisfazem esta exigência. E discípulo quem crê em Jesus e o ama acima de tudo. Todos os discípulos são iguais, embora com carismas e funções diferentes. A diferença entre “discípulos missionários” e “discípulos caseiros”, do tempo de Jesus, se transformou, no correr da história, em polarização. Os “discípulos caseiros”, os “leigos”, se viram reduzidos a uma categoria secundária. Restabelecida a igual dignidade e vocação, descobre-se hoje o protagonismo evangelizador dos leigos, mais diretamente inseridos na sociedade humana.

Para compreender o significado e alcance do novo Diretório Geral para a Catequese (= DGC) publicado em português no ano passado, é necessário situá-lo dentro da vida da Igreja nestes últimos anos, particularmente dentro do movimento catequético. Na verdade, ele é uma revisão e atualização do Diretório Catequético Geral de 1971 que deu um grande impulso à catequese pós-conciliar. E necessário também ter em consideração três documentos pontifícios dos quais depende explicitamente: as exortações apostólicas Evangelii nuntiandi de Paulo VI e Catechesi tradendae de João Paulo II e a encíclica Redemptoris missio sobre a validade permanente do mandato missionário. Neste artigo, teremos em conside¬ração particularmente o movimento catequético a partir da ótica da Amé¬rica Latina, começando justamente do primeiro Diretório de 1971.

Published: December 2020

This study used the AUDIâ€™s technology application with repair rations, aimed at increasing the productivity of Arabâ€™s hens in the 2 nd phase. The repair ration is focused on the addition of calcium minerals. AUDI technology is a combination of water filtering technology with extract beluntas (Pluchea indica L.). The research used seventy two Arabâ€™s hen with homogenous body weight. The study used a completely randomized design with 3 treatments, 6 replications, each replication consisting of 3 chickens. The research was conducted in 6 weeks of treatment. The parameters measured in this study were ration consumption, calcium consumption, hen day production (HDP), eggshell weight, and thickness. The results showed that the use of AUDI technology on rations significantly improved (p <0.05) affected ration consumption, calcium consumption, and increased hen day production (HDP), but did not affect weight, and thickness of an eggshell. Feed intake and calcium consumption significantly influenced by differences in calcium and crude protein in the rations. Based on these results, it was found that the use of AUDI technology was able to shorten the clutch cycle in laying hens so that production still reached 60-70% equivalent with phase I. Weight and thickness of eggshells were not affected by the use of AUDI technology and improved rations because the hens used as subject had reached peak production.

The article provides data on the importance of psychodiagnostics in the examination of sexological patients. It is specified that psychical deviations are more-less present in all sexological patients, which is important for diagnosis and for the choice of pathogenetically based therapy.Commonly sexological patients are diagnosed with non-profound disorders of brain activity. To identify them, a carefully collected history and patient complaints from a psychological assessment of the data obtained are often sufficient.Obtained data requires additional testing. The following methods are used more often: MMPI, HADS, Spielberg-Hanin, Beck, Hamilton, Rorschach, Tsung ...In sexological patients, the following syndromes are most common: asthenic, affective, obsessive states, senestopathic, hypochondriacal. Less common: syndrome of overvalued ideas, delusional syndromes. Correctly performed psychological diagnostics presupposes an competent chosen treatment. Psychotherapy is rarely used as an independent method of therapy, more often it is combined with other methods.In sexological practice, preference is given to individual rational psychotherapy.

The objective: was to determine the efficacy and safety of nine-year therapy in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (ВРН) using the combination «Flosin – Prostamol Uno» by the method of assessing the quality of life and the possibility of improving objective data of urological status. The ultimate goal of nine-year follow-up of patients was to reduce the risk of developing acute urinary retention as a complication of this disease.Materials and methods. A study of patients with BPH who were included in PROSPECT IV found that 37 people from the entire cohort at the age of 59–78 years (68.2±4.7) remained under observation for 2020 (of n=94 in PROSPECT III – 39.3 % of patients were followed up for 9 years). In a similar way, the subjects were randomized according to the conditions of previous therapy into two groups: the І group (clinical) included 33 patients who received the combination «Flosin – Prostamol Uno» for 9 years; ІІ group (control) consisted of 4 subjects who received a combination «doxazosin – finasteride» also for 9 years.Results. The obtained results testify to the high therapeutic efficacy of the combination «Flosin – Prostamol Uno», comparable to the combination of drugs «doxazosin and finasteride». Combination therapy with Flosin and Prostamol Uno was well tolerated in patients with a low incidence of adverse events (5.75 %; p <0.05) compared with patients receiving the combination of doxazosin and finasteride (27 %, p <0, 05). 7 (18.9 %) patients were operated on during the last 5 years (TUR – 6; laser vaporization – 1); the level of acute urinary retention – in 7 people in the form of 1–2 episodes, which required operative assistance.Conclusion. The above facts made it possible to assert that: the adherence of patients to the combined conservative therapy of BPH according to the «Flosin – Prostamol Uno» scheme was high (43.2 %); adherence of patients operated on for acute urinary retention to this type of combination therapy was evident (all patients received Extr. Serenoa repens and tamsulosin in the postoperative period); the level of acute urinary retention in persons of group I with BPH who received treatment for 9 years was 19 % (p> 0.05).

The objective: to study the long-term results of organ-preserving surgeries when removing cystic kidney tumors of category III – VI according to Bosniak.Materials and methods. The study was carried out with the participation of 16 patients with verified cystic renal tumors of the category III – VI according to Bosniak. Indications for surgery were: clinical manifestations, laboratory, ultrasound, Doppler and radiation methods (MSCT with bolus contrast or MRI). The diagnosis of renal tumor process was also confirmed using histological and histochemical research methods.Results. Long-term studies after 18 and 36 months showed no signs of recurrence of cysts or tumor process in the kidneys. Signs of a tumor process in the lymph nodes or in other organs during these periods of the study were also not found. Removal of cysts and tumors in the long term after surgery leads to a significant improvement in blood circulation in the kidneys.Conclusion. Organ-preserving resection of a part of the kidney affected by Bosniak category III–VI cystic tumors is a modern effective method of treatment and should be an alternative to surgical removal of affected kidneys in such patients.

The objective: was to determine in the urine of patients with calcium-oxalate nephrolithiasis (Ca-Ox NL) and phosphoric acid nephrolithiasis PhAU) and in the rabbit kidney parenchyma with simulated ischemia, the activity of lysosome enzymes N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) and β-galactosidase (β-Gal) as enzymatic indicators of the ischemic origin of the kidney parenchyma.Materials and methods. In the urine of 151 patients with nephrolithiasis with preserved renal function (45 with Ca-Ox NL and 106 with PhANL), the activity of the lysosomal enzymes NAG and β-Gal was examined. Patients are divided into groups depending on the type of NL, the size of the calculus and its mineral composition. The reference group – 25 healthy persons. An experimental study was conducted on 10 rabbits with modeled left kidney ischemia, which developed 3.5 to 5.0 months after ligature was applied to its upper pole, and 3 healthy rabbits (6 kidneys). The activity of NAG and β-Gal was determined in the homogenate of the cortical layer of the upper pole of the ischemic kidney and the kidneys of healthy rabbits.Results. All patients with nephrolithiasis have ischemic damage to the kidney parenchyma of varying severity. The most significant ischemic damage to the kidney parenchyma by calculus according to the definition of NAG and β-Gal was recorded in patients with PhANL with magnesium-containing calculi, which had the largest stone sizes. In the experiment on rabbits, a significant decrease in the enzyme activity in the renal parenchyma of animals with ischemia was shown to be compared with similar parameters in healthy rabbits.Conclusion. The results obtained indicate the feasibility of determining the activity of lysosomal enzymes of urine NAG and β-Gal as non-invasive enzyme indicators of ischemic damage to the tubular epithelium of the kidney in patients with nephrolithiasis, which is confirmed by experimental studies. The severity of ischemic damage to the kidney parenchyma in patients with nephrolithiasis according to the determination of the activity of the NAG and β-Gal enzymes in urine depends on the type of nephrolithiasis, the size of the calculus and its mineral composition.

The Ukrainian Institute of Sexology and Andrology studied the clinical efficacy of PHARMAPROST manufactured by SYSTEM PHARM (Ukraine) in patients with grade I BPH in combination with chronic abacterial prostatitis.Study design: examined and treated 60 men with BPH I degree in combination with chronic abacterial prostatitis, aged 48 to 66 years and disease duration from 6 months to 12 years. The treatment program consisted of two courses of rectal suppositories PHARMAPROST for 10 days a night, the interval between courses was 20 days. All 60 patients completed the full course of treatment.Evaluation of effectiveness: the study included two visits (before and after treatment), during which a history was collected, physical examination, laboratory examination of ejaculate (clinical analysis and bacteriological examination), questionnaire, uroflowmetry, ultrasound. The effectiveness of treatment was evaluated 30 days after the end of the course.Results. The obtained data confirm the clinical efficacy of PHARMAPROST presented inUkraine by SYSTEM PHARM (Ukraine) in 60 patients with a combination of grade I BPH and chronic abacterial prostatitis (NIHUSA, category IIIa CP/CPPS – chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic syndrome) signs of inflammation). High clinical (89.6–91.7 %) efficacy of this drug has been proven. Treatment was accompanied by good tolerability and minimal side effects.Conclusions. The use of the drug PHARMAPROST in the treatment of patients with chronic abacterial prostatitis and BPH I degree is clinically justified and effective (89.6–91.7 %). The use of the drug PHARMAPROST is accompanied by good tolerability and a small number of side effects (8.3 %). The obtained results allow to recommend the use of the drug PHARMAPROST as monotherapy of patients with a combination of BPH I degree and chronic abacterial prostatitis.

Authors: Г. С. Кочарян
Published: December 2020

The objective: Study of some aspects in the formation of syndrome of anxious expectation of sexual failure (SAESF), chiefly of the neurotic genesis, were studied in 220 males.Materials and methods. Three variants of its formation were separated (premanifest, manifest, postmanifest: acute-subacute and chronic). This was determined by period of their occurrence in relation to manifestation of sexual disorders. Also twenty groups of psychological traumatic factors, which took part in the development of the syndrome were identified: normal physiological discharge, pains and pathological changes in the genitals, violation of spontaneous sexual indices, violation of adequate sexual manifestations in erotic contacts, copulatory (physiological and pathological) disorders, homosexual episode, reproaches and behaviour of the female partner, unfaithfulness of the wife, fear of dissatisfaction for the wife, fear of appearing disabled before the eyes of an experienced female partner, divulgence of information about sexual disability, onanophobia, fear of consequences of sexual abstinence, iatrogenia, reading of medical literature and acquaintance with medical documents, information about pathogenic influence of microwave frequencies, information about negative effects of anabolic hormones, apprehension of a possible deterioration of sexual functions in prospect, activation of recollections of previous sexual failures, confidence in one’s own unattractiveness.Results. The degree of participation of these factors in the formation of the above SAESF variants as well as proximate causes of sexual «malfunctions» with the resultant postmanifest development of the studied syndrome were analysed.Conclusion. The conclusion is drawn that the obtained results will make it possible to solve problems of SAESF prevention more effectively.

The objective: of the study was evaluate efficiency and safety of ethamsylate and tranexamic acid administration for prevention of the hemorrhagic complications of ESWL.Materials and methods. Patient with urinary stone diseases (stone localized in kidney or upper part of urether) without coagulation disorders and who did not take medicines that affect the blood coagulation system was included. All patient was undergo ESWL. The group І included 1400 patients who did not receive preventive antihemorrhagic therapy. Group II – 375 patients who received 250 mg ethamsilate intravenously before the ESWL session. Group III – 300 patients – 500 mg tranexamic acid intravenously. During the postoperative period, the occurrence of kidney hematomas, prolonged macrohematuria and the occurrence of diseases associated with hypercoagulation were assessed.Results. Group I: hemorrhagic complications were found in 52 (3.71 %) patients; 19 (1.36 %) people had renal hematomas, and 33 (2.36 %) had prolonged macrohematuria. In group II –3 (0.8 %) patients had hematomas and 3 (0.8%) – prolonged macrohematuria. In the group ІІІ, there was no hematomas and only 2 (0.67 %) patients had macrohematuria. The number of hemorrhagic complications in the tranexamic acid group was lower than in the control one (p=0.006). More severe complications predominated in the control group, compared with patients receiving hemostatic. None of the experimental groups didn’t show an increase in the frequency of pathology associated with hypercoagulation.Conclusions. ethamsylate and tranexamic acid can reduces the likelihood of renal hematoma and prolonged macrohematuria after ESWL. We did not find any complications specific to these medicines. The use of tranexamic acid is much more effective than ethamsylate.
