Facework in Confessional Videos by YouTube Content Creators
Authors: Dekavalla Marina
Published: April 2022

This article analyses the role of facework in the discourse of confessional YouTube videos by female fashion and beauty content creators, where they disclose personal problems, and offer viewers advice. It uses thematic analysis to identify discursive tactics that protect viewers’ face. The article argues that the parasocial nature of the connection that these videos attempt to establish with an audience that content creators know little about makes it important for them to reflexively adapt to these viewers’ needs for fellowship and autonomy. Their disclosures may be intended to create closeness, but at the same time they need to cater for distance and prepare the ground for this content to be received as well as possible. However, just like the connection that the videos seek to establish, the facework they contain is also parasocially situated: the videos speak to an imagined viewer’s need for inclusion and this viewer’s possible objections, as these are perceived by the content creator. The article contributes to a better understanding of the construction of closeness in this genre of mediated discourse.
Effects of family-centered care on bonding: A systematic review
Authors: Kutahyalioglu Nesibe S , Scafide Katherine N
Published: April 2022

Most critically ill neonates require constant monitoring, continuous care, and supervision. However, distance created by admission and prolonged stay in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) may contribute to a delay in parent-infant bonding. This review aimed to determine how family-centered care (FCC) in the NICU affects parental bonding with critically ill infants. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were used to perform a systematic search of the literature within the following four electronic databases: Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. The search was conducted through July/August 2020. Research quality was evaluated using the Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Grading Scale. Out of 816 articles identified through literature search, 16 of the studies met our inclusion criteria. The majority of the studies ( n = 14) found FCC interventions resulted in a significant increase in parental bonding. Results showed evidence practicing FCC in the NICU setting supports early parent-infant bonding. Nurses should consider implementing evidence-based FCC strategies into practice, such as allowing parents unrestricted access to their infants. More rigorous research with larger samples is recommended. More studies are also needed focusing on father-infant dyads and mother-father-infant triads.
Saint Bonaventure and the future of Christian education
Authors: Rapinchuk Kyle David
Published: April 2022

Four writings by the medieval theologian Bonaventure (c. 1221–1274) provide inspiration for the future of Christian education. His writings cast a vision for Christian education and provide insight into four key areas for hope in the future: a reclaiming of the purpose of Christian education; a recovery of the Great Tradition; a rediscovery of the liberal arts and their natural role in cultivating wisdom and virtue and leading us back to God; and a renewal of the cooperation between the church and the academy.

Authors: Liu Xiangyang , Zhou Wanming , Fan Wenmao , Li Aihua , Pang Jungang , Chen Zefang , Li Xiangmei , Hu Xiulian , Zeng Yanmin , Tang Liangqiu
Published: April 2022

Background

Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) has been taken as a biomarker of inflammation in patients with acute coronary diseases. Regular exercise rehabilitation could attenuate inflammation and promote the rehabilitation of coronary heart disease (CHD). The level of Lp-PLA2 is negatively correlated with 6-min walk test (6-MWT). The exercise prescription of appropriate intensity is the basis of exercise rehabilitation. 6-MWT is associated with maximal oxygen consumption, and can be used to determine the intensity of exercise prescription guiding patients how to do exercise rehabilitation. The aim of this study was to observe the benefit of 6-MWT guided exercise rehabilitation on the level of Lp-PLA2 in patients with CHD undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Methods

We prospectively, consecutively enrolled 100 patients between Dec 2018 and Dec 2020 in the fourth ward of the Department of Cardiology, Yuebei People's Hospital Affiliated to Shantou University. Eligible patients were 1:1 divided into Group A, with no exercise rehabilitation, and Group B, with regular exercise rehabilitation, using random number table method of simple randomization allocation. Clinical data such as general information, the profile of lipids and the level of Lp-PLA2 were collected at baseline and at 12-week follow-up.

Results

There were no statistically significant differences of the percentages of gender, hypertension, type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), the profile of lipids and level of Lp-PLA2 between the groups at baseline (P > 0.05). The level of Lp-PLA2 decreased at 12-week follow-up, moreover, the decline of the Lp-PLA2 level in Group B was more significant than that in Group A (t = 2.875, P = 0.005). Multivariate linear regression analysis indicated that exercise rehabilitation was independently correlated with the level of Lp-PLA2 (β′ = − 0.258, t = − 2.542, P = 0.013).

Conclusion

Exercise rehabilitation for 12 weeks guided by 6-MWT can further reduce the level of LP-PLA2 in patients with CHD undergoing PCI.

Clinicopathological characteristics and treatment outcomes of occult breast cancer: a population-based study
Authors: Zhao Zijun , Zhang Ting , Yao Yu , Lu Xin
Published: April 2022

Background

Occult breast cancer (OBC) is a special type of breast cancer. Because of its rarity, clinicopathological information is still insufficient, causing a controversial condition about its treatment recommendation. Thus, we aimed to clarify major clinicopathological information, treatment strategies and prognosis of OBC based on a large population.

Methods

We retrospectively collected adult female OBC population from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. We divided the whole cohort into two groups based on surgical treatment in-breast. Descriptive analysis of 18 clinicopathological variables was conducted. Survival analysis was performed based on different clinicopathological factors. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to identify potential independent predictor for prognosis of OBC.

Results

1189 OBC patients were in final analysis and most of them were diagnosed as an early-stage carcinoma. Patients received breast-conserving treatment (BCT) was nearly two times of ones received mastectomy. Patients receiving radiotherapy in BCT group were significantly more than patients receiving radiotherapy in mastectomy group (61.76 vs. 50.9%, P  <   0.001). After a median follow-up period of 62 months, 5-year and 10-year overall survival (OS) of all subjects was 81.6% and 68.8%, respectively. No significant difference in OS and breast-cancer specific survival (BCSS) was found between mastectomy and local breast-conserving surgery. Older age and larger number of positive lymph nodes causes a worse prognosis whereas radiotherapy brought a better clinical outcome for OBC patients.

Conclusions

OBC has a generally good prognosis. Less-intensive surgery does not negatively impact clinical outcomes of OBC while additional radiotherapy is totally beneficial to prolong OS and BCSS.

Published: April 2022

Holographic stereogram (HS) printing is a promising holographic technique for three-dimensional (3D) visualization of an object with accurate depth cues. In this paper, unlike the conventional rectangular hogel based HS, efficient hexagonal hogels sampling for HS printing that enhances the volumetric visualization of reconstruction while providing rapidly generated data using inverse-directed propagation (IDP) is proposed. Specifically, an array of hexagonal hogels is sampled by a computer-generated integral imaging technique using an IDP, which acquires the full information of the 3D object prior to higher volumetric 3D reconstruction. To demonstrate the proposed approach, IDP-based hexagonal hogel sampling for HS printing is implemented, and the enhanced image quality of printed holograms is verified both by numerical simulation and in an optical experiment.
Ultrasound: Gianfranco Rosi’s Lampedusa
Authors: Wilson Emma
Published: April 2022

Gianfranco Rosi’s Fuocoammare (Fire at Sea) (2016), a poetic reflection on the island of Lampedusa and its relation to the migrant tragedy in the Mediterranean, offers a contemplative scene where the island’s doctor, Pietro Bartolo, uses ultrasound to examine a pregnant woman. This article looks closely at this scene, engaging with writing by Akira Lippit and Lauren Berlant and considering how the scene opens questions about the unborn child, about life, infancy, maternity, care and protectiveness. Rosi has spoken about ‘our emotions concerning the real’, and about how he opens spaces in his documentaries for the viewer to interpret and feel. I explore how this is managed in Fire at Sea through appeal to the senses in returning images of blueness, of darkness, of liquid environments.

Authors: Kotov Denis O.
Published: April 2022

The analysis of existing technologies for the development and implementation of vehicle control systems based on the automation of their functionality in accordance with the standard of the Society of Automotive Engineers J3016 2018and proposals of the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is performed. The classificationof the functionality of the on-board information-control system of vehicles according to the type of Advanced Driver Assis-tance Systems is carriedout. On the basis of the conducted analysis the variant of structure of adaptive information-controlled system of the car with multisensory channels of information interaction is offered. Approaches to the elimi-nation of a priori uncertainty regarding the information about the input multisensory information array in the adaptive information system with external and internal standards are proposed. Based on the methods of direct and inverse mod-eling, an approach to solving the class of problems of system identification is proposed, when the researcher has input and output signalsand the transmission characteristics of the system are unknown. On the basis of direct and inverse methods of solving the system identification problems, structures offormation of direct and inverse estimation of the distortion operator are developed. This matrix distortion operator of the input multisensory information array in the sys-tem under study is a priori unknown. The analytical dependences of the formation of direct and inverse estimation of the distortion operator of the input multisensory information array in the controlled system with the adaptive principle of information processing in the conditionsof a priori uncertainty are substantiated.In this study, the structure of an adaptive robotic complex with an information-controlled vehicle control system is proposed. This structure is invariant to external and internal destabilizing influences.
The Cominternist Origins of Current Socialist Bolivarianism
Authors:   Saint Petersburg State University, Jeifets Victor , Jeifets Lazar ,   Saint Petersburg State University
Published: April 2022

Introduction. The article examines the Comintern “trace” in the formation of modern “Bolivarian socialism”, proclaimed by the leaders of Venezuela at the beginning of the 21st century. Communist postulates (in the Comintern perception) were, certainly, not the only source of the formation of the ideology of the ruling Socialist United Party of Venezuela. At the same time, a number of the postulates were formulated back in the 1920s by activists of the Venezuelan Revolutionary Party (later they became members of the country’s Communist Party) and the Socialist Party of Ecuador. A number of similar concepts were the subject of discussions between the leadership of the Comintern and the Peruvian People’s Revolutionary Alliance and were also debated during one of the congress of the Communist International. Another important aspect explored by the authors is the analogy between the processes of the formation of a united left party in Venezuela in the 1930s and in the 2000s (as a comparative example, the pattern of creating a united revolutionary party within the framework of the Castro revolution in Cuba was also used). Methods and materials. The study uses a set of methods of analysis adopted in historical and political science, namely documentary analysis, systemic and comparative analysis. Analysis and Results. The cases presented in the article prove that Socialism of the 21st century is not the exclusive creation of Hugo Chavez, but is closely related to ideological discussions in the international left-wing movement of the first half of the 20th century. The article is based primarily on archival documents, which allowed the authors to show little-known pages in the history of Latin American left-wing parties. Authors’ contribution. V.L. Jeifets and L.S. Jeifets made joint analysis of the archival documents, carried out the study of historiography, and developed the theoretical framework of the research. The conclusions also are the product of joint work.
Policy Toward Russia: American Expert Community Debating Future in the Fall of 2020
Authors:   European University at Saint Petersburg, Kurilla Ivan
Published: April 2022

Introduction. Contemporary Russian-U.S. relations have reached freezing point, but expert community continues to analyze possibilities and produce recommendations for the Russian policy of the incoming administration. The study of the debate is important not only for the political and diplomatic purposes but also for better understanding of the mechanisms shaping Russia’s image in the United States. Methods and materials. The article provides an analysis of the exchange of expert opinions published in the USA in August – November of 2020, including five open letters published on Politico web site, report of the Atlantic Council and several articles addressing similar themes on the pages of American periodicals. Analysis. Texts of the letters are analyses for their argument and recommendations and compared between each other. The author underlines the difference between the groups of the signatories, depending on their relative experience in working in and on Russia or in the Eastern Europe and suggests correction to the Tsvetan Todorov’ approach to the understanding of links between knowledge about and practice towards the “Other”. Results. The author notes the existence of the centuries-old legacies of the American approaches to Russia: similar descriptions of Russia persist from the late 19th century to 2020. He also highlights an absence of a Russian position in the debate, while positions of Eastern Europeans and Ukrainians were provided by separate letters.
The Problem of Choosing the Candidate of the New U.S. Ambassador in the USSR in 1941–1942 (According to New Archival Documents)
Authors:   Saint Petersburg State University, Minkova Kristina
Published: April 2022

Introduction. Differences in views with the US Ambassador to the USSR L. Steinhardt and the military situation in the USSR forced the President of the United States F.D. Roosevelt to approach the search for subsequent candidates for the post of ambassador to the USSR in the fall of 1941 more carefully. Methods and materials. The analysis of documents deposited in the Roosevelt Presidential library, memoirs of the ambassadors and their biographies can explain the appointment of Standley to Moscow and to determine his contestants. Analysis. Ambassador Steinhardt left Moscow in early November 1941, but the new ambassador was appointed only on February 13, 1942. The delay was caused both by the controversy surrounding the candidates prinvosed by the President and the reluctance of some of them to accept the prinvosed position. President Roosevelt strove to ensure that this responsible post was occupied by peinvle loyal to him, who fully shared his views on rapprochement with Moscow through unilateral concessions. The State Department opposed candidates who supported this policy. In 1941–1942, the post of the U.S. ambassador to the USSR could have been granted to the Soviet spy A. Stern, famous for his pro-Soviet views General Faymonville, General J. Burns from the Lend-Lease Administration. None of these candidates was supported by the Department of State, and as a result, a compromise figure of Admiral Standley was found to satisfy both sides. Results. The mistrust and disrespect of Roosevelt and the Soviet leadership towards Steinhardt and Standley significantly reduced the effectiveness of interaction between the USA and the USSR in 1941–1943. As a result of confrontation between the President and the Department of State, inexperienced diplomats who occupied an unstable intermediate position between these two poles became US ambassadors to the Soviet Union.
A method for assessing photorealistic image quality with high resolution
Authors:   Pacific National University, Sai S.V.
Published: April 2022

The article proposes a method for assessing photorealistic image quality based on a comparison of the detail coefficients in the original and distorted images. An algorithm for identifying fine structures of the original image uses operations of active pixels segmentation, which include point objects, thin lines and texture fragments. The number of active pixels is estimated by the value of a fine detail factor (FDF), which is determined by the ratio of active pixels to the total number of image pixels. The same algorithm is used to calculate the FDF of the distorted image and, further, the image quality deterioration is estimated by comparing the obtained values. Special features of the method include the fact that the identification of small structures and the segmentation of active pixels are performed in the normalized system N-CIELAB. The algorithm also takes into account the influence of false microstructures on the results of the restored image estimating. Features of the construction of neural networks SRCNN in the tasks of a qualitative increase in the image resolution with the restoration of fine structures are considered. Results of the analysis of the quality of enlarged images by the traditional metrics PSNR and SSIM, as well as by the proposed method are also presented.

Authors: G. Rathod Prachala , Kumar Atul , Tandon Radhika , H. Ahmed Nishat
Published: April 2022

Background and Purpose: Although Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus are more commonly implicated with ocular infections; there are some saprophytic species, such as Aspergillus nidulans (A. nidulans) which may occasionally lead to serious ocular infections. There is a paucity of data on ocular infections caused by A. nidulans. We report a case series of three ophthalmic infections caused by A. nidulans from a tertiary care eye center in North India.
Case report: Three cases of ophthalmic infections, including two cases of keratitis and one case of recurrent endophthalmitis caused by A. nidulans were diagnosed at the ocular microbiology section of a tertiary eye care center. One case of keratitis had a history of ophthalmic surgery and underlying diabetes mellitus. The case of recurrent endophthalmitis had undergone cataract surgery in the recent past. Diminution of vision was the most common presenting feature in all three cases. The microbiological diagnosis was made by conventional microscopy and culture techniques.
Conclusion: This case series illustrates the potential of uncommon fungal pathogens, such as A. nidulans to cause devastating ocular infections and has an emphasis on the importance of timely microbiological diagnosis in the management of such cases.
SARS-CoV-2 Infection: A Possible Risk Factor for Incidence and Recurrence of Cancers

Published: April 2022

COVID-19 and malignancy can affect the susceptibility of one another. Clinically recovered COVID-19 individuals display immune abnormalities that persist several months after discharge. The lymphopenia-related immunosuppression, functional exhaustion of cytotoxic lymphocytes (such as CD8+ cytotoxic T-cells and natural killer cells), hyperinflammatory responses, oxidative stress, downregulation of interferon response, development of the myeloid-derived suppressor cells, downregulation of tumor suppressor proteins and perhaps reactivation of the latent oncogenic viruses may directly and/or indirectly play a role in the cancer development and recurrence in severe COVID-19 patients. SARS-CoV-2-infected malignant patients may be at higher risk of death of their cancer than SARS-CoV-2-uninfected patients with the same cancers. On the other side, the patients with some types of cancers may be more vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection compared with the non-cancerous individuals, due to their immunocompromised state resulted from malignancy, chemotherapy, and other concomitant abnormalities as well as perhaps greater expression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2. SARS-CoV-2-infected cancerous patients are unable to produce an effective anti-virus immune response and may exhibit more severe forms of COVID-19. This review described the possible impacts of SARS-CoV-2 infection on cancer development and recurrence, and the potential cancer impacts on COVID-19 development, while the possible interventions are highlighted.
Lower Levels of Vitamin B12 Among Patients with Viral Warts Compared with Control Subjects: A Retrospective Study
Authors: ERTUĞRUL Gökşen , AKTAŞ Habibullah
Published: April 2022

Aim: Viral wart is a common benign infectious dermatosis. It remains unclear why not everyone exposed to HPV develops warts. It is known that vitamin and mineral deficiencies can affect impair natural and acquired immunity and lead to a tendency to get more infections. This study aimed to determine the potential utility of evaluating vitamin B12, folic acid, and ferritin levels in patients with viral warts.
Material and Methods: In this retrospective study, 70 patients who were diagnosed with viral warts in the dermatology outpatient clinic of Karabük University Training and Research Hospital between January 2018 and December 2019 were included. 70 healthy individuals matched with viral wart patients in terms of gender and age were included as the control group. Serum vitamin B12, folic acid, and ferritin levels of both groups were detected and compared from the hospital automation system.
Results: Vitamin B12 level was detected statistically significantly lower in the viral wart group as compared to the control group (p=0.046). Although serum ferritin levels were found lower in the viral wart group, this difference was not statistically significant (p=0.677). No statistically significant difference was detected between the viral wart and control groups in terms of folate levels (p=0.879).
Conclusion: In patients with viral warts with low serum vitamin B12 levels, replacement therapy could be considered. Also, the evaluation of serum ferritin level, an iron storage parameter in the body, is important in patients with viral warts infection.

Authors: ERDAL Harun , BAKIR Ayfer , GÜNEY Mustafa , GÜNAL Armağan , GÜLŞEN Mustafa
Published: April 2022

Aim: In this study, sensitivity and specificity of the albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score were investigated to detect significant liver fibrosis, and these findings were then compared to fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) and aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index (APRI) scores.
Material and Methods: A total of 69 patients were included in the study. Of these patients, 54 (78.3%) were male and 15 (21.7%) were female. Serology, molecular analysis, biochemical parameters, and pathology results of the patients who underwent a liver biopsy due to a chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, were retrospectively evaluated. ALBI, APRI, and FIB-4 scores were calculated. To predict the fibrosis stage, F≥2 and F≥4, ALBI, APRI, and FIB-4 scores were investigated using the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
Results: The area under the ROC curve with 95% confidence interval (CI) for the ALBI, APRI, and FIB-4 scores were 0.613 (95% CI: 0.463-0.762, p=0.160), 0.658 (95% CI: 0.513-0.803, p=0.040), and 0.731 (95% CI: 0.570-0.891, p=0.004), respectively, to predict the F≥2, and 0.758 (95% CI: 0.544-0.971, p=0.090), 0.604 (95% CI:0.451-0.757, p=0.490), and 0.923 (95% CI: 0.856-0.990, p=0.005), respectively, in prediction of F≥4. The sensitivity and specificity rates of the ALBI score were 61.1% and 64.7%, respectively, for the cut-off value of -2.81 in predicting F≥2, and 75.0% and 70.8% for the cut-off value of -2.78 in predicting F≥4.
Conclusion: ALBI scores can be used to detect F≥2 in patients with chronic HBV. However, it is not yet clear whether this approach is superior to other non-invasive methods for detecting F≥4.

Published: April 2022

Usaha peternakan babi di Bali berkembang secara pesat seiring dengan meningkatnya kebutuhan produk asal babi. Keberadaan ternak babi tidak terlepas dari berbagai permasalahan salah satunya serangan penyakit. Beberapa penyebab terjadinya kematian babi secara mendadak adalah demam babi Afrika (African Swine Fever/ASF), hog cholera (Classical Swine Fever/CSF) dan streptococcosis. Hal ini disebabkan karena belum tersedianya vaksin untuk ASF dan sering terjadinya kegagalan vaksinasi pada S. suis dan CSF. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui rancangan strategi pencegahan dan pengendalian yang disesuaikan dari pengetahuan tentang identifikasi dan alokasi risiko untuk masuknya penyakit yang dapat dihasilkan secara transparan melalui penilaian faktor risiko. Sebanyak 82 peternakan babi yang mengalami kematian mendadak pada bulan Januari sampai Desember 2020 dijadikan objek penelitian. Peternakan babi berada di Kecamatan Payangan, Tegalalang, dan Tampaksiring, Gianyar. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan observasional dengan metode cross sectional. Teknik sampling yang digunakan adalah random sampling. Data yang diperoleh ditabulasi selanjutnya dilakukan penghitungan Odd Ratio dan Confident interval 95% menggunakan Statistical Product and Service Solutions. Hasil analisis menunjukan 7 dari 12 parameter faktor risiko diidentifikasi sebagai faktor risiko potensial yang signifikan terhadap kejadian babi mati mendadak (P<0,05). Faktor risiko kejadian babi mati mendadak adalah peternakan yang tidak menerapkan akses terbatas memasuki kandang, tidak menggunakan celup kaki disinfektan, tidak menggunakan baju kandang khusus, tidak melakukan penyemprotan disinfektan, ditemukannya lalat dan serangga di areal kandang, memberikan pakan sisa, dan tidak menerapkan sistem produksi all in-all out. Simpulan dari penelitian ini adalah peternakan yang tidak menggunakan celup kaki disinfektan merupakan peternakan yang paling berisiko mengalami kematian babi.

Muhammadiyah is an influential organization, especially in reforming the education sector and eradicating all forms of religious practice deviations. The development of Muhammadiyah in the Sumatra region began in 1925 in Minangkabau. Furthermore Muhammadiyah began to rapidly spread to the interior, which was oriented towards the countryside. With the rapid spread of Muhammadiyah to reach the Musi banyuasin Regency, Muhammadiyah established an elementary school in the rural area of ​​Sekayu (Ulak Paceh) in 1926 which is the oldest Muhammadiyah school in the South Sumatra region. Muhammadiyah then began to show its role by carrying out movements in the fields of economy, preaching and social welfare, politics and education

Pola komunikasi adalah suatu bentuk penyampaian pesan yang terstruktur atau sistematis oleh seseorang kepada orang lain. Dalam pola komunikasi terdapat beberapa unsur komunikasi yaitu pengirim pesan (communicator), penerima pesan (communicant), pesan, respon dan efek. Pola komunikasi verbal adalah berkomunikasi secara tertulis dan lisan. Sedangkan pola komunikasi nonverbal adalah berkomunikasi menggunakan bahasa isyarat, gerak tubuh, ekspresi wajah, alfabet jari dan lain-lain. Dalam proses belajar mengajar, guru biasanya menggunakan bentuk komunikasi kelompok atau komunikasi interpersonal dengan komunikasi dua arah. Strategi yang digunakan dalam eksplorasi ini adalah dengan menggunakan teknik subjektif, yaitu informasi yang digunakan dalam ujian berupa pertemuan dan gambar untuk mengetahui bagaimana desain korespondensi instruktur dalam mengembangkan lebih lanjut kapasitas belajar siswa penyandang cacat di SLB Negeri Lubuk Linggau (belajar tentang gangguan pendengaran dan pendengaran). Ilmuwan pelemah wacana dimanfaatkan dalam kajian ini sebagai data esensial dan opsional. Informasi primer sebagai informasi yang diambil langsung dari hasil pertemuan dengan pengurus dan pendidik di SLB Lubuk Linggau. Informasi sekunder berupa dokumentasi dan foto-foto di SLB Negeri Lubuk Linggau. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa contoh korespondensi instruktur dalam pengembangan lebih lanjut kemampuan belajar siswa difabel di SLB Negeri Lubuk Linggau (studi pada siswa tuna rungu dan siswa tuna wicara) dengan menggunakan desain korespondensi verbal dan nonverbal memiliki unsur pendukung dan penghambat selanjutnya Dalam mengembangkan kapasitas belajar, khususnya faktor populasi, pendidik dapat memanfaatkan tayangan pendukung pemberian topik kepada siswa. Sementara itu, faktor penghambatnya adalah indra pendengaran mereka, yang memiliki batasan jika mereka tidak menggunakan panduan visual, batasan nyata, penghalang semantik dan penghalang mental.

The relevance of the article is determined by the state policy in the field of education, as well as the need to find and develop approaches and means to implement the task of forming functional literacy among students, in particular, its reader component. International studies confirm the low level of its formation among the modern generation of schoolchildren. Socio-scientific subjects — history, social studies, regional studies — play a significant role in solving this problem. It is about the ways of solving the designated task in the lessons on these subjects that the article is about. The purpose of the article is to determine the methodological approach and means of forming reader literacy in the lessons on social and scientific subjects in rural school. As a result of the research, a local history approach was identified as a methodology and in its context three competence-oriented educational tasks were proposed, demonstrating the variativeness of the presentation of information in the text (written, graphic), the educational potential of such tasks, their activity orientation. The novelty of the results is determined by the concretization of general theoretical concepts about the formation of reader's literacy as a component of functional literacy in relation to teaching social and scientific subjects. The theoretical significance lies in enriching the methods of teaching history and social studies with knowledge about the pedagogical potential of the local history approach. The practical significance consists in the presentation of samples of educational tasks, a kind of «template models», according to which any teacher will be able to construct author's versions of tasks for the formation of students' reading literacy on another educational content. The materials of the article will be useful primarily for teachers of subjects of the humanities cycle in rural educational organizations, as well as for those teaching staff who turn to local history in their activities.

The infant gut microbiota is the set of microorganisms colonizing the baby’s intestine. This complex ecosystem appears to be related to various physiological conditions of the host and it has also been shown to act as one of the most crucial determinants of infant’s health. Furthermore, the mother’s endocrine system, through its hormones, can have an effect on the composition of the newborn’s gut microbiota. In this perspective, we summarize the recent state of the art on the intricate relationships involving the intestinal microbiota and the endocrine system of mother/baby to underline the need to study the molecular mechanisms that appear to be involved.
New Dimensionless Numbers Characterising Viscous Crossflow During Chemical Flooding in Layered Reservoirs

Reservoirs are often layered due to depositional processes and this affects the sweeping efficiency of chemical flooding. The traditional dimensionless numbers of viscous crossflow may fail to predict the impact of crossflow under these circumstances. In this work, we have derived new dimensionless numbers to take into account mobility modification that occurs as a result of chemical flooding.

We considered models of viscous dominated chemical flooding. In such systems, the formation waterfront was formed and followed by a second chemical waterfront. We also took into account models where there was a rarefaction wave of a gradual increase in water saturation behind the second waterfront. We began by deriving analytical solutions in noncommunicating layers. Then, we used these solutions to obtain dimensionless numbers that described the relationship between fluid flow and the heterogeneity between layers. We considered models where each layer was contrasted from the other by porosity, permeability, initial and final fluid saturation, relative permeability, viscosity and retardation factor. We compared the predictability of these numbers against the numerical results for models under low salinity and polymer flooding.

The new analysis shows that a group of four dimensionless number can be used to quantify the effect of viscous crossflow. While two of these numbers are new, the others have been modified to extend previous work. The current study shows that mobility modification due to chemical flooding is a significant parameter and should be included, whereas this was not considered previously. We also introduce a modified longitudinal heterogeneity ratio as a new dimensionless number that grouping the contrast of porosity, permeability, saturation change, and harmonic average of total mobility of displacing front. This new term is more descriptive than having a dimensionless number of each individual property as previously suggested. Also, for the first time, we report the role of fractional flow contrast where it should be considered as an individual dimensionless number in chemical flooding and as associated parameter within the longitudinal heterogeneity ratio for both chemical and traditional flooding.

This newly derived group is very important for EOR processes in layered models where mobility changes occur, and mobility modification, fractional flow and saturation change are accurately presented.
