A STUDY ON GLUTAMIC ACID DECARBOXYLASE 65 (GAD-65) AUTOANTIBODY AND ANTI-INSULIN AUTOANTIBODY IN LEAN PATIENTS WITH DIABETES MELLITUS
Authors: Phan Thi Minh Phuong
Published: March 2020

Introduction and objectives: The Glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD-65) autoantibody and anti-insulin autoantibody (IAA) are serum markers of autoimmune diabetic patients. The presence of these autoantibodies in aging diabetic patients can differenciate the latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) from type 2 diabetes. Patients with these auto-antibodies were considered high risk group and will progress into insulin dependent in 5-7 years. This study was carried out with aims:(1) To define the positive rate, the concentration of GAD-65 autoantibody and IAA on lean patients with diabetes. (2) To survey the correlation between the presence of GAD-65 autoantibody, IAA and several clinical and laboratory characteristics of these patients. Objects and methods: 86 patients diagnosed of diabetes following the ADA 2015 criteria, fasting glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL (or ≥ 7.0 mmol/L) and HbA1C > 6.5%. Indirect ELISA technique was performed to measure anti GAD-65 autoantibody and IAA. Kits used in the study were AESKULISA GAD-65 from AESKU Company- Germany and IAA ELISA from DRG Company- Germany. Results: the positive rate with anti GAD-65 and IAA was 48.84% and 30.23% respectively. The positive rate with one of the two antibodies was 55.81%; the positive rate with both antibodies was 23.26%. Mean concentration of GAD-65 positive was 51.08 ± 16,86 IU/mL; The average concentration of IAA positive was 1,46 ± 0,27 U/mL. Regarding the correlation between the concentration of GAD-65, IAA and laboratory data: there is a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) between positive GAD-65 antibody and insulin concentration. A statistically significant difference between GAD-65 antibody and hypertriclyceridemia in the studied and control group (p<0.05) is also observed. Keywords: glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) autoantibody, insulin autoantibody, diabetes mellitus

Authors: Tran Van Huy , Bui Thi Ngoc Diep
Published: March 2020

Background: The recurrent variceal bleeding is still very high with a very poor prognosis. The combination of a non-selective beta-blocker and endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) is still a standard therapy for the prevention, but many patients showed no response to propranolol. Carvedilol is a new, non-selective beta-blocker having intrinsic alpha-blocker activity, but the data about the efficacy and safety of carvedilol is still very limited. This study is aimed at assessing the efficacy and safety of carvedilol combined with EVL in the prevention of recurrent variceal bleeding. Patients and methods: 33 patients having variceal bleeding were enrolled. All patients received carvedilol and were performed the EVL until variceal eradication. All the patients were followed after 9 months. Results: rate of variceal eradication of oesophageal varices was 87.88%; the recurrence rate of variceal bleeding was 12.12% after 9 months. The side effects of carvedilol were rare and not severe, including vertiges, headache, and orthostatic hypertension. Conclusion: Carvedilol combined with EVL appeared as a relatively safe and effective in the prevention of recurrent variceal bleeding in patients of cirrhosis. Key words: carvedilol, variceal bleeding, EVL

THE INFLUENCE OF PRIVATE LAW ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE WORLD AND RUSSIAN LAW AND ORDER: MODERN FORMS AND TRENDS
Authors: GONGALO BRONISLAV , NOVIKOVA NATALIA
Published: March 2020

Introduction: modern legal science and practice is aimed at the need to ensure and develop law and order both at the level of individual countries and at the level of the entire world community as a whole. At the same time, it is obvious that private-law relations occupy a significant place in the structure of legal relations. That is why it seems interesting to examine the main trends in the influence of private law on the development of law and order as such, to identify the main forms of such influence, to determine the directions for the development of private law and to make recommendations on the possibilities for improving private-law regulation on a national and international scale. Methods: the system method was chosen as the determining method for studying the trends in the development of basic private law institutions from the standpoint of the norms of Russian and international legislation. The choice of the system approach as the determining method of investigation is due to the fact that it is this method that makes it possible to reveal the integrity of the developing object, which is the rule of law, to reveal the interrelationships of individual institutions and private law rules with each other and the legal system as such. Analysis: the study examined the main trends in the development of private law in the current economic and political environment, in addition to aspects of the general part of civil law, including explored the scope of intellectual property, private-public partnerships, corporate relations. The problems of stimulating innovative development by means of private law were touched upon, as well as recommendations on the use of private law mechanisms to protect the national interests of the Russian Federation. Results: in the course of the study, the authors come to the conclusion that it is necessary to formulate a clear and well thought out concept of private law, which should combine public and private interests in the legal regulation of public relations. The creation of such a concept, oriented to practical application, should become the main task of modern civil science.
THE POTENTIAL OF CATEGORIZATION OF CRIMES IN THE SPHERE OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITY
Authors: KOZACHENKO IVAN , SERGEEV DANIL
Published: March 2020

Introduction: categorization of crimes is a means of making criminal law rules and differentiating criminal liability. The article considers the current approaches to categorization of crimes stated by Chapter 22 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation; most constituent elements of crimes are non-grave crimes.

Methods: the authors analyze the fact that the gravity of a crime does not always correlate with the level of public danger of a crime. In this connection, the authors suggest changing the boundaries between crimes, and also between crimes and administrative offenses. The article considers a possibility of introducing criminal infractions in the sphere of liability for crimes against economic activity.

Analysis: the authors underline that the Russian criminal policy in the sphere of economic activity should be based on the inter-branch model of combating crimes. Such a model includes regulatory legislation, administrative and criminal liability; but the share of criminal-law regulation should be minimized, and criminal liability should be applied in case of really dangerous acts. The authors think that the measure of real danger in the economic sphere is the size of real damage caused, which should be calculated including a possible useful economic effect occurring as a result of this or that act.

Results: the authors suggest excluding a possibility of building constituent elements of crimes bordering administrative offenses solely on the quantity elements of an act and classify such acts only in the category of administrative offenses or only in the category of crimes. The authors suggest viewing crimes of little gravity in the sphere of economic activity only as criminal infractions leading to no conviction.

Optimization of energy savings in shoe sole production
Authors: Špelić Ivana , Mihelić-Bogdanić Alka , Budin Rajka
Published: March 2020

Since 1970’s, the most popular shoe soles are (EVA) soles, made from Ethylene Vinyl Acetate, copolymer consisting of ethylene and vinyl acetate. The thermosets and elastomers (rubbers), among them accounting EVA, encompasses around 30% of the tonnage of all synthetic polymers produced, with the synthetic rubbers exceeding the tonnage of natural rubber. With that in mind, the energy savings in rubber processing plants are of great importance and the paper analyses the potential of energy savings in shoe soles production process made of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA). The shoe soles made from EVA are lightweight, easy to mould, water and moisture resistant, highly elastic, shock absorbent, great thermal insulators, highly durable, etc. The energy savings using the process return condensate in shoe sole production process are presented. Using the return condensate results in lower make up water consumption, substantial fuel savings needed to produce steam and lower chemical consumption. Returning hot process condensate to the boiler results in oil savings of 14,9%. Also, the thermal pollution is reduced by 95,3%, while the volume of the flue gases is lowered from 17,11 m3FG/kgNEC to 14,57 m3FG/kgNEC or by 14,8%. Such a system enables both the oil savings and reduces the thermal pollution. The comparison of process with and without flue gases heat recovery shows fuel savings of 18,76%, while the temperature reduces from 221°C to 137,39°C and while the volume of the flue gases is lowered to 13,90 m3FG/ kgP.

Published: March 2020

Background. Noise-induced hearing loss is one of the oldest problems of occupational medicine. The purpose of the study was to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of the development of noise-induced hearing loss in industrial workers of the Murmansk Region in 1988-2017. Materials and methods. We analyzed data on incident cases of occupational diseases in 1988-2017 and socio-hygienic monitoring forms in part of “Working Conditions and Occupational Morbidity” in the population of the Murmansk Region in 2007–2017. Results. We established that in 2007–2017 almost 20% of all workers affected by harmful or hazardous industrial factors were exposed to noise. Over eleven years, their percentage decreased by 5.3% (p < 0.001). In 1988–2017, noise-induced hearing loss was registered in 27.3% of new cases of occupational diseases among industrial workers and made up 16.9% in the general structure of occupational pathology. We observed an increasing tendency in the prevalence of noise-induced hearing loss, especially in combination with other occupational diseases of the musculoskeletal, nervous, and respiratory systems. The risk of developing noise-induced hearing loss for miners (RR = 4.50; CI: 4.04–5.01) and ship repair workers (RR = 6.73; CI: 5.54–8.18) was higher than that for other industrial workers of the Murmansk Region. Conclusions. The findings suggest the need for more efficient technical and medical measures aimed at preventing hearing impairment caused by occupational noise.

Introduction. High density of oil-producing and refining facilities in certain areas of Bashkortostan significantly affects the environment including ambient air quality in residential areas. Materials and methods. We analyzed concentrations of airborne toxicants (sulfur and nitrogen oxides, nitrogen and carbon oxides, hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, xylenes, toluene, phenol and total suspended particles) and population health status in the cities of Ufa, Sterlitamak, Salavat, Blagoveshchensk, and the Tuymazinsky District in 2007–2016. Pearson's correlation coefficients (r) were used to establish possible relationships between medico-demographic indicators and air pollution. Results. Republican fuel and energy enterprises contributed the most to local air pollution levels. Gross emissions from such enterprises as Bashneft-Ufaneftekhim and Bashneft-Navoil reached 43.69–49.77 thousand tons of pollutants per year. The levels of some air pollutants exceeded their maximum permissible concentrations. Elevated concentrations of ammonia, total suspended particles, nitrogen dioxide, and carbon monoxide were registered most frequently. High rates of congenital abnormalities, respiratory diseases in infants (aged 0-1), general mortality and morbidity of the population were observed in some oil-producing and refining areas. The correlation analysis proved the relationship between the concentration of carbon monoxide and general disease rates in adults based on hospital admissions (r = 0.898), general incidence rates in children (r = 0.957), and blood disease rates in infants (r = 0.821). Respiratory diseases in children correlated with nitrogen dioxide emission levels (r = 0.899). Conclusions. Further development of oil-producing, petrochemical and oil-refining industries should be carried out taking into account socio-economic living conditions of the population.

Communicating through hand gestures is one of the most common forms of non-verbal and visual communication adopted by speech impaired population all around the world. The problem existing at the moment is that most of the people are not able to comprehend hand gestures or convert them to the spoken language quick enough for the listener to understand. A large fraction of India’s population is speech impaired. In addition to this communication to sign language is not a very easy task. This problem demands a better solution which can assist speech impaired population conversation without any difficulties. As a result, reducing the communication gap for the speech impaired. This paper proposes an idea which will assist in removing or at least reducing this gap between the speech impaired and normal people. The research going on this area mostly focuses on image processing approaches. However, a cheaper and user-friendly approach has been used in this paper. The idea is to make a glove that can be worn by the speech impaired people which will further be used to convert the sign language into speech and text. Our prototype involves Arduino Uno as a microcontroller which is interfaced with flex sensors and accelerometer, gyroscopic sensor for reading the hand gestures. Furthermore, to perform better execution, we have incorporated an algorithm for better interpretation of data and therefore producing more accurate result. Thereafter, we use python to interface Arduino Uno with a microprocessor and finally converting into speech. The prototype has been calibrated in accordance with the ASL (American Sign Language).

Authors: Shabbir Asma
Published: March 2020

Background: Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma are the most common esophageal cancers. Barrett’s esophagus is the change of esophageal stratified squamous epithelium to columnar cells which if remain undiagnosed follows the dysplasia – carcinoma sequence. The last two decades show a change in the histologic pattern of esophageal carcinoma. Adenocarcinoma is at majority rate than SCC in the West, however, in Asia, SCC is still the commonest cancer of esophagus. In this study, we aim to define a spectrum of premalignant and malignant neoplasms of esophagus in our region.

Methods: This study was done at Dow Diagnostic Research and Reference Laboratory (DDRRL). All the cases of preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions of esophagus received during the period of 7 years (2009-2015) were reviewed. The data obtained were subjected to descriptive statistical analysis using SPSS version 21.

Results: Out of 94 premalignant cases, 70 (74.5%) were diagnosed as Barrett’s esophagus, 23 (24.5%) as dysplasia and 1 (1.1%) as adenoma. From the total of 450 malignant cases, 395 (87.7%) were SCC, 54 (12%) were adenocarcinoma and a single case of leiomyoma was diagnosed. Grade II SCC was found to be most the common lesion.

Conclusion: Barrett’s esophagus was more than dysplasia and showed male preponderance. SCC was the predominant esophageal cancer, which is similar to the other studies in our country. SCC was found more common in females than males and vice versa for adenocarcinoma. Majority of all the cases belonged to 41-60 years of age group.

Authors: Assad Tahira
Published: March 2020

Background: Thyroxine has shown beneficial effects on intelligence, learning, and memory process in patients of congenital hypothyroidism. Minocycline has been used in clinical practice for various indications and reported to have anti-thyroid effects. This study was specifically designed to observe the role of thyroxine on minocycline induced damage to thyroid gland.

Methods: This experimental study was undertaken at Anatomy department of BMSI, JPMC, Karachi, for eight weeks, from October to November 2019. Thirty adult (10-12 months) male guinea pigs, weighing from 450-650 gm were obtained and divided into 3 groups. Group A served as control, group B was given Minocycline 0.02mg/gram/day once daily and group C was administered Minocycline in similar amount as group B along with thyroxine 0.5µg/gram/day for the same duration. Dosing was continued for 8 weeks, at the completion of which all the animals were sacrificed. Thyroid gland was processed and tissue sections were stained with Haematoxylin and Eosin for morphology.

Results: The absolute weight of thyroid gland was significantly increased (p<0.001) in minocycline treated group B animals compared to the control animals, whereas substantial decrease (p<0.01) in absolute weight of thyroid gland was witnessed in group C in comparison to group B animals. The follicular cells showed hypertrophy and shrinkage of colloid in the thyroid follicles. These changes were prevented when animals were co-administered with thyroxine and minocycline in Group C.
Conclusion: Concomitant administration of thyroxine with the antimicrobial drug minocycline showed protective effects of thyroxine on Minocycline induced damage to thyroid gland of animals.

الذكاء هبة من الله يمنحها لعباده بنسب متفاوتة كالرزق والجمال وغيرهما من الصفات وقد وضعت عدة نظريات حول الذكاء وتصنيفاته وكذلك فقد وضعت اختبارات متعددة لقياس الذكاء. وأن الذكاء الأكاديمي والعلمي يختلف كلياً عن الذكاء الاجتماعي فالذكاء العلمي والاكاديمي تدخل فيه عدة عوامل من ذاكرة قوية وقوة استرجاع للمعلومات وربط ومعالجة المعلومات العلمية بسرعة كبيرة. أما الذكاء الاجتماعي فهو قابلية الفرد على الاستحضار والاستفادة من كل الظروف الاجتماعية المحيطة والخروج بموقف يبعد عن الفرد الإحراج ويحقق أهدافه سواء كانت بسيطة أو كبيرة. (الفقهي ،2007،ص2).

فان طلبة الجامعة الذين لايمتلكون القدر المناسب واللازم من مهارات الذكاء الاجتماعي سيواجهون مشكلات كبيره في تفاعلهم وتكيفهم مع انفسهم ومع الاخرين او بشكل ادق سيكون ذكاؤهم الاجتماعي متدنيا ان تدني مستوى  الذكاء الاجتماعي ينتج عنه مشاكل كثيره تؤدي احيانا الى  اضطرابات سلوكيه ومشاكل صحية ونفسية وصعوبات في  التكيف و التفاعل مع الاخرين .والإنسان هو الكائن الوحيد الذي يبحث عن معنى لحياته، ومن ثم فإن فهمه لطبيعة الحياة يقوده إلى نمط يتعامل على وفقه مع متطلبات الحياة في أي زمان ومكان. ولما كان الإنسان حراً فإنه يستطيع أن يقرر ويختار ما يسعى إلى تحقيقه من أهداف بناءً على أسس ومعايير تعد مقبولة لديه ومتناغمة مع معنى الحياة الذي توصل إليه، ويختلف معنى الحياة من مجتمع إلى آخر ومن فرد الى اخر ومن مدة زمنية إلى أخرى، نتيجة لاختلاف العادات والتقاليد والقيم وأساليب التنشئة الاجتماعية بين هذه المجتمعات والافراد، فضلاً عما يمر به الفرد من ظروف حياتية ضاغطة داخل المجتمع نفسه لذلك فإن دراسة المشكلات التي قد تواجه طلبة الجامعة من خلال التعرف على معنى الحياة لديهم . ويمكن تلخيص مشكلة البحث الحالي  بالاجابة على السؤال الاتي : ما طبيعة العلاقة الارتباطية بين الذكاء الاجتماعي ومعنى الحياة لدى طلبة الجامعة .

ان تنمية الذكاء لاطفال الرياض وفي سن مبكر (5-6) سنوات قضية جدليه بمعنى ان هناك من يرى ان هذه التنميه ممكنه في حين ان البعض الاخر يرى ان ذلك غير ممكن ولابد من الانتظار الى سن متقدم حتى يكون الاطفال اكثر قابليه واستجابه للبرامج الاثرائية وعليه فالتتطورات التي حصلت في مجال تقنيات المعلومات والانترنيت والحاسوب ولد ما يسمى بالذكاء الصناعي الذي ادى الى تنمية الكثير من المفاهيم العقلية التي كانت حتى الامس كامنة بسبب رتابة الانظمة التربوية وتعاملها من الاطفال عن قدرات محددة كالحفظ والفهم وفي هذا العالم تتطور قدرات البشر بشكل مذهل وتبقى المشكلة في الانظمة التربوية التقليدية يبقى اطفالها يعانون من مشكلات في بطئ النمو العقلي مقارنة بالدول التي تستخدم هذه التقنيات ومن هذا الباب اطفالنا لايزالون يتعلموا بطريقة الحفظ التي ساعدت الى حد لم تحتفظ بمستوياتها كطريقة تعلمية ولذا فان مشكلة البحث الحالي تتمثل في اختبار مدى فاعلية برنامج تعليمي معد من قبل الباحثان في تنمية الذكاء لاطفال الرياض.
Developing intercultural communicative competence – the two sides of the coin
Authors:   New Bulgarian University, Bulgaria, Dimitrova-Gyuzeleva Svetlana
Published: March 2020

Effective intercultural communicative competence goes beyond a good command of the foreign language and an insight into the foreign culture. What real-life intercultural communication often calls for is an ability to present one's own cultural identity in the foreign tongue. Are our learners empowered to face this challenge and how can the foreign language teacher cater for this need? The aim of this paper, which was developed on the basis of the author's presentation at the 4th conference of the Educational Role of Language network "From theory to practice, from practice to theory", is to outline the contemporary understanding of the essence of intercultural communicative competence underpinning the need for language teachers to devote equal attention to both the target and the local culture and language in order to prepare competent language users who can function as efficient mediators in the process of intercultural communication. In an answer to some of the deficiencies identified in educational practice, some practical ideas are also shared on how to exploit the rich affordance of language classes to enhance both the language command and the intercultural communicative competence of the learners. / Keywords: intercultural communicative competence, foreign language education

The Plight of Women in Positions of Corporate Leadership in the United States, the European Union, and Japan: Differing Laws and Cultures, Similar Issues
Authors: Binder Bettina , Morehead Dworkin Terry , Nae Niculina , Schipani Cindy , Averianova Irina
Published: March 2020

Gender diversity in corporate governance is a highly debated issue worldwide. National campaigns such as “2020 Women on Boards” in the United States and “Women on the Board Pledge for Europe” are examples of just two initiatives aimed at increasing female representation in the corporate boardroom. Several

European countries have adopted board quotas as a means toward achieving gender diversity. Japan has passed an Act on Promotion of Women’s Participation and Advancement in the Workplace to lay a foundation for establishing targets for promoting women.

This Article examines the status of women in positions of leadership in the United States, several major countries in the European Union, and Japan. We focus on the legal backdrop in each jurisdiction regarding gender discrimination and studies tending to demonstrate the economic benefits of gender diversity. We conclude that although important steps have been taken in the direction of narrowing the gender gap in all jurisdictions examined, progress has been slow and difficult across the board. The issue of too few women at the top will not be resolved until there is a wider acceptance that female leaders can benefit their organizations and contribute to social and economic progress. Moreover, the presence of women on corporate boards is valuable in and of itself and the status quo ought to be further challenged in international business.

Post-communism structural changes of the Romanian forestry sector
Authors: Abrudan Ioan Vasile
Published: March 2020

Forests cover 28 % of the land area of Romania and, they are important from the ecological, economic and social perspectives. Political initiatives to restore property to its pre-nationalization (1948) forest owners became a reality, after the fall of communism. Compared to the other former communist countries from Central and Eastern Europe, the forest restitution process in Romania took a longer time and has been legally implemented via three successive restitution laws in a period of 15 years: Law 18/1991, Law 1/2000 and Law 457/2005. By the successive implementation of these forest restitution laws, the total forest area restituted to the non-state forest owners reached 3.15 million ha at the beginning of 2017, representing about half of the total forest area in Romania. The institutional changes in the forestry sector have been politically influenced (both by the Government and European Union) and not always responsive to the sector needs, realities and evolution. Whilst during the communist period, all typical sectoral functions such as regulatory, supervisory, management and ownership were under the responsibility of the same entity – the Ministry of Forests, in early 1990 s the regulatory and supervisory functions of the state were separated from the management function as the National Forest Administration (NFA)-Romsilva was established as the management entity of state forests, mainly with a commercial mandate. The move of the Department of Forests (the public authority responsible for forests in Romania) under different ministries in the last three decades was accompanied by many changes of the subordinated units and disruptions in the normal activity of its staff. Regarding the forest control and supervisory functions at regional level, 7 regional Forest Inspectorates were established in 1999, their number being increased to 16 in 2001. After 2003 they have had a tumultuous evolution, with several changes of mission and subordination and in 2015, the Forest Inspectorates were transformed into Forest Guards. A significant institutional milestone in the post-communist development of the forestry sector in Romania was the establishment of the first "private" forest districts (administrative/management legal entities for non-state forests, similar to those of NFA-Romsilva) in 2002: their number reached 145 in 2017, managing more than 1.7 million ha of forests. The radical change in forest ownership continues to pose a high pressure on the restructuring of the forest institutions, administration and management structures. It is expected that the decentralisation and reduction of state role in forest administration and management will continue in the next decade.
