Authors: Зинчук М.Н. , Зинчук Н.Н
Published: January 2023

По результатам комплексного исследования особенностей геодинамического и гипергенного изменения вулканогенного материала как в его коренном залегании, так и при переносе, построена схема преобразования минералов в процессе выветривания этого типа образований для территории Восточно-Сибирской платформы. Особое внимание при этом уделено поведению в упомянутых процессах тонкодисперсных глинистых минералов, характерных для различных типов пород. В умеренных климатических поясах (особенно при неполных профилях выветривания) часто размыву подвергался элювиальный материал, который в зависимости от степени преобразования обладает специфическими структурно-минералогическими особенностями, сохраняющимися при недалеком и спокойном переносе, а также при накоплении в бассейнах седиментации и при последующих незначительных диагенетических изменениях.

Objetive: To determine the impact of dental erosion on the oral health related quality of life in preschool children aged 3 to 5 years. Material and Methods: An observational, cross-sectional study was carried out. The sample consisted of 150 preschoolers from a preschool in the suburban areas of Lima, Peru. The Basic Erosive Wear Examination (BEWE) index was used for the evaluation of dental erosion; and the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS) was used to measure quality of life. The data were analyzed in the statistical program SPSS v.25. Results: A prevalence of erosion of 40.7% was observed; with an initial loss of tooth surface in 28% and a loss of hard tissue of <50% of the surface area in 12% of the examined children. No statistically significant association was found between the impact of erosion and the oral health related quality of life (p> 0.05). However, the dimension with the highest score was functional limitations. Conclusion: The prevalence of dental erosion in preschool children was high, and dental erosion did not show an impact on the oral health related quality of life.
Are measurements of non-cholesterol sterols in plasma useful in identifying susceptibility to atherosclerosis?
Authors: Eder Carlos Rocha Quintão
Published: January 2023

This review discusses the validity of plasma non-cholesterol sterols precursors of cholesterol synthesis and phytosterols in the identification of human atherosclerosis. There is an insufficient demonstration that these sterols are valid methods of measurement of cholesterol metabolism. All markers, including cholestanol, that derive from cholesterol synthesis may only reflect body retention of sterols and not necessarily increased intestinal absorption. Also, in most studies, conventional risk factors of atherosclerosis, such as obesity, diabetes mellitus, gender, and age were not taken into account.

Authors: KAYA Ümit Ünsal , KAYA Şerife Burcu
Published: January 2023

Ağıt söyleme geleneği, Türk toplumunun yaşantısında çok eskiden beri önemli bir yere sahiptir. Sözlü kültürün önemli bir parçası olan bu gelenek sosyo-kültürel yaşamdaki değişimlere bağlı olarak yavaş yavaş yok olmaktadır. Bir kültürel değer taşıyan bu yöresel geleneğin derlenmesi, Türk kültür mirası içinde yer edinmesinin sağlanması çalışmanın temel amacıdır. Bu düşünceden yola çıkarak Afyonkarahisar-Bayat yöresinde söylenen ağıtlar derlenmiştir. İç Batı Anadolu’daki Afyonkarahisar ilinin Bayat ilçesinde kültürel miras olarak yüzyıllardır günümüze süregelen Bayat ağıtlarının kendine özgü söyleme şekli ve mitolojik hikayesi vardır. Ağıt söylemenin temelini vefat karşısında duyulan üzüntü, evlenme, ayrılık, kına gibi durumlar oluşturmuştur. Bu çalışmada Bayat yöresine ait ağıtların, bu yörede yaşayan 15 kaynak kişiyle yüz yüze görüşme yaparak video ve ses kaydı ile toplanıp yazıya geçirilmiştir. Uygun örnekleme tekniği ile oluşturulan çalışmanın örneklemini bu yörede ağıt söylemeyi bilen 15 kaynak kişinin söylediği 21 ağıt oluşturmaktadır. Kaynak kişilerin 13’ü okuryazar, 2’si okur-yazar değildir. Kaynak kişilerden tespit edilen ağıtların nesilden nesile sözlü olarak aktarıldığını gözlemledik. Ağıt içeriklerinin söyleyicinin sevdiğini kaybettiği durumlarda hissettiği üzüntüyü dile getirmek ve evlenerek ana evinden ayrılan kızına duyacağı özlemi ifade etmek amaçları ile dile getirildiğini tespit ettik. Çalışmanın sonunda ağıtların kültürel birikim taşıyan önemli kaynaklar olduğu ve bu ağıtlar sayesinde yörenin yaşam biçimi, coğrafyası, geçim tarzları ve günlük yaşayış biçimleri hakkında bilgiler edinebileceğimiz ortaya konmuştur. Bu ağıtların bölgenin kültürel birikimlerinin aktarılmasında önemli işlevi olduğu görülmektedir. Bu işlevin yok olmaması için yazılı kaynaklara aktarılmasının gerekli olduğu değerlendirilmektedir.

Present behavior is influenced by its imaginary future consequences. However, it is known that the immediate and long-term consequences of the same behavior may have different effects on a person's well-being. Hence, when analyzing one’s way of making decisions, it is important to take into account how far-reaching consequences of their behavior are considered. Among the variety of methods to measure future time perspective and its motivational impact on one’s decisions and behavior, special attention should be paid to the Consideration of Future Consequences Scale (CFC), which consists of two sub-scales – immediate future and distant future. The scale allows to assess how far-reaching consequences of one’s own actions are taken into consideration when making decisions and acting in the present moment. The first adaptation of the scale into Ukrainian language was conducted in 2017 (Senyk, Riznyk, Horbal), which resulted in good reliability and validity scores for both subscales. However, the question of the possibility of using the Ukrainian version of the CFC as a unidimensional scale remained open. The present article is dedicated to reviewing the validity and reliability of the Ukrainian CFC in its one- and two-factor solutions. The sample comprised of 1137 participants (M = 21.05), residents of almost all Ukrainian regions and the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. The results have shown that the Ukrainian version of CFC has good validity and reliability in both two- and one-factor solutions, and therefore is recommended to be used for future research and in the field of individual practice.

The article analyzes the salutogenic approach in psychology, reveals the role of an individual’s salutogenic attitudes to help counteract stress impact. The relationship between the constructs of salutogenesis and an individual’s hardiness are analyzed. An individual’s salutogenic orientation is understood by us as his/her value attitude to his/her own psychological health; and health is considered not as an absent illness, but as a state in the continuum between mental disorder and psychological well-being. The integral indicator of a valuable attitude to health is a sense of coherence as a special structure of attitudes that includes three interrelated components: comprehensibility, manageability, meaningfulness. The study purpose is to determine empirically the salutogenic factors of an individual’s hardiness. The study used the following methods: C. Riff’s Psychological Well-Being Scale; A. Antonovsky’s sense of connectedness scale, S. Maddi’s Hardiness Test; Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory; Ways of Coping questionnaire by S. Folkman and R.S. Lazarus. The study sample consisted of 183 people, 48 men and 135 women; average age was 37.7 ± 11.1 years. The correlations among the components of salutogenetic orientation, hardiness, coping strategies and time perspective were determined empirically. The resources of an individual’s general resistance, which alleviate stress impact and contribute to the individual’s optimal functioning, are related to understanding and assessment of a situation by the individual, existing acknowledged life goals, the ability to influence life events, one's own capabilities understood by the individual and existing positive relationships with others.

Published: January 2023

En la actualidad existen dos pisos periglaciares activos en el Macizo de las Ubiñas: el nivoperiglaciar, situado entre 1750-1800 y 2100-2200 metros s.n.m.; y el crionival, ubicado por encima de 2100-2200 metros s.n.m. hasta el techo del macizo a 2417 metros s.n.m. (Fontán Sur). El piso nivoperiglaciar, donde los procesos son más atenuados y la nieve determina la actividad geomorfológica, se caracteriza por mantos nivales estables entre seis y ocho meses al año, siendo frecuente que se desencadenen aludes de nieve, así como movimientos en masa rápidos como los flujos de derrubios, los argayos y las fanas, además de otros de movimiento más lento como la solifluxión, la arroyada y el karst nival, aunque se han observado escasos ciclos de hielo-deshielo. Por su parte, en el piso crionival se aprecia una intensificación de los procesos anteriormente mencionados, a excepción de la caída de aludes, debido a unas temperaturas inferiores, en torno a 1 ºC y 3 ºC de media anual y a mayor presencia y duración de la nieve y los neveros permanentes. En estas cotas la crioturbación genera suelos ordenados (círculos de piedras y suelos estriados) y se observan procesos de gelidescamación y la gelidisyunción al combinarse la crioclastia y el karst nival,
La nación en la era posmoderna: ¿existe todavía?
Authors: Puentes Juan Camilo
Published: January 2023

Las profundas y vertiginosas transformaciones de la era posmoderna han llevado a la Ciencia Política Normativa a construir y aplicar nuevas herramientas epistemológicas apartadas de los estándares científicos hegemónicos. En este contexto, este artículo de investigación estudia, a la luz del macromolde posmoderno, la injerencia de las fuerzas, manifestaciones y representaciones posmodernas (globalización, revolución tecnológica o cultura mainstream) en la configuración de la nación como un elemento tradicional y esencial de los Estados modernos. Se parte de la hipótesis central de la fragmentación inconclusa, es decir, que la posmodernidad no logra suprimir completamente la idea de nación (como lo afirman muchas posturas radicales), ni tampoco dejar incólume su naturaleza y sus elementos compositivos, tal como han existido desde la modernidad. En definitiva, la nación se enfrenta a un debilitamiento de las fuerzas tradicionales políticas, como el Estado, que ven cómo los ciudadanos se cohesionan en torno a principios, valores y derechos transnacionales, a través de canales no convencionales como internet, plataformas interactivas, redes sociales, entre otros.

Published: January 2023

Cryptosporidium is one of the major causes of diarrhea in HIV-positive patients. Infection is related to the ingestion of oocyst-contaminated drinking water or food. In HIV infected individuals, this infection could have a higher mortality and vary in clinical manifestation. We report a case of cryptosporidiosis in a recently detected HIV patient who was suffering from intermittent diarrhea for last 2 months. Stool samples were collected and examined by modified Kinyoun’s acid fast staining. On microscopy of smear, we found pink, spherical oocyst 4-6µm in diameter. The absolute CD4+ count of patients was 85 cells/µl and viral load was 560 copies/ml. Patient was treated with an antiparasitic drug Nitazoxanide for 3 days and anti-retroviral Treatment started in ART clinic. On follow up there was resolution of symptoms and no complaints of intermittent diarrhea.

Published: January 2023

This study examines how female executives affect bank performance in Indonesia’s emerging market. It also investigates whether a critical mass of females on the board of management impacts bank performance. The sample was obtained from 29 banks, which covers 64.5% of publicly listed banks in Indonesia, for the observation period of 2010–2019. This study employs balanced panel data regression analysis, including the year fixed effect. Five surrogate indicators were used for female executives: female Chief Executive Officer (CEO), female Chief Financial Officer (CFO), the presence of females on the board of management, the proportion of female members on the board of management, and the number of female members on the board of management. Critical mass is reached if there are three or more female members on the board of management. The findings suggest that female executives do not significantly impact bank performance. The critical mass suggests a similar result. The findings are consistent and robust for the additional analysis using a lagged independent variable. Nevertheless, the results show that female CEOs positively impact return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE). Empirical findings in Indonesia suggest that female executives do not affect bank performance. The absence of this effect is likely due to unique aspects of Indonesian culture and the structural ownership of firms. However, female CEOs were shown to improve ROE. The findings imply that females are more risk-averse decision makers than males and tend to choose lower-risk investments, which can improve ROA and ROE.

Published: January 2023

The article addresses to the modern ideas about pedagogical artistry, briefly discusses the methods of its implementation, lists the main components and highlights its functions and the role in the process of the professionalism formation of the future teacher.
The role of the teacher has changed: the modern teacher is a leader not only of information but also of culture, a spiritual mentor. To cope with this task, he needs a developed mindset, the ability to empathize, to imitate, co-create and empathize. He must be able to maintain his creative form. In other words, a creative educator must master artistry.
The purpose of the article is to consider the role of artistry in the professional qualities formation of a future teacher at the present stage of education development in Ukraine, as well as to consider and analyze the elements of “theater” pedagogy in the future teachers’ training.
In the article the authors make conclusion that pedagogical artistry can be defined as the ability to organic existence and effective action in the pedagogical process. This ability is associated with the knowledge of the teacher and the development of his pedagogical thinking also with mastering the art of self-expression (ability to embody thought and experience in image, behavior, word), improvisation, ability to regulate mental state, constructing “scores of pedagogical communication”.

Authors: Singh Vartika , Deen Bhagwan , Singh Shashank
Published: January 2023

Micro-propagation refers to the technique of in vitro multiplication of plants in a short duration using any plant parts (nodes, leaves, flowers, seeds etc.) under aseptic conditions. It is advantageous over vegetative propagation and its application in horticultural aspects. It is well-proven method of surplus production of elite identical plants in a controlled environment which are uniform, stable, disease-free, true-to-type and are independent of any seasonal restrictions or limitations. India is homeland to diverse of significant but minor fruit crops such as Indian gooseberry, (Emblica officinalis Gaertn.), Karonda (Carissa carandas L.), Bael (Aegle marmelos Corr.), Jamun (Syzygium cuminii L.), Jackfruit (Artocarpus hetrophylous L.) which bear high nutritional, medicinal, therapeutic values and of great commercial importance (medicinal, food and cosmetics). Due to a paucity of desirable planting materials, the commercial production process for these crops is restricted. Micropropagation has the potential to significantly increase the number of new cultivars or genotypes of such fruit crops. The objective of this review study is to compile existing research work done on the micropropagation of these underutilized fruit crops.

This study investigated the antibacterial activity of clove extract and the effect of adding clove powder to the diet on survival cantang grouper infected with V. alginolyticus. The clove extraction used a maceration method. Two dose levels of clove powder were used, namely 10 and 15 g kg−1. The control treatments without clove powder supplementation contained positive control (CP) and negative control treatment (CN). The results found that the clove extract contained five major compounds. The highest compound was phenol, 2-methoxy-4-(2-propenyl)-Eugenol (64.07%). Phytochemical analysis of clove extract contained phenolics, flavonoids, and tannins at (28.53 ± 0.00) mg/g, (0.38 ± 0.00) mg/g, and (0.15 ± 0.00) %, respectively. The diameter of the clove extract inhibition zone was significantly different (P < 0.05) in all treatments. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) result presents that the clove extract can alter the V. alginolyticus cell morphology. The dietary supplementation of clove powder improves the survival rate significantly higher (P<0.05) post-challenge test. The conclusion of this research is that clove extract has antibacterial activity that can inhibit growth and cause cell morphological damage to V. alginolyticus. The application of clove powder at a dose of 15g kg-1 was able to improve the survival value which was a higher post-challenge test.

Freedom: Old Truths Need To Be Rediscovered
Authors:   Omsk State University n.a. F.M. Dostoevsky, Kuparashvili Mzia J.
Published: January 2023

This more than cursory analysis of the concept of “freedom” is an attempt not only to capture the actual ways of reading and interpretation, but also to justify the need to disclose its content in words understandable to a contemporary. Freedom as a purely human event, closely connected with spiritual and moral consciousness, prescribes self-sufficiency and the absence of coercion in actions and thoughts to the individual. The realization of the principle of self-restraint through free will reveals the God-natural essence of man. The article cannot claim to be complete in fixing the aspects of relevance and depth of analysis of the stated directions. What is important is that rethinking the philosophical meaning of freedom is a requirement of the day. Old truths require rediscovery. In other words, the previous ways of assigning this, of course, basic value to society in modern reality are in an inoperative state. Consequently, new ways of analyzing and substantiating the content of the concept, new language formulations are required, since the understanding of the sacred meaning of freedom is secretly hidden by the eternal value of a person.

Currently, digitalization and digital transformation are actively penetrating into various spheres of public life, new and new forms of their mass application are emerging, and citizens’ access to information technologies is expanding. For a legal and democratic state, the issue of openness of government is paramount, therefore, a special role in the process of digital transformation should be given to the creation of channels of information openness of the activities of state power. To study the problems of implementation and prospects for the introduction of information systems for monitoring and controlling the activities of authorities in modern Russia in 2021–2022, an empirical sociological study was conducted using questionnaire survey and expert interview methods. The method of data collection is a questionnaire survey of citizens of the Russian Federation aged 18–60 years (n = 2256 people) living in Russia. Heads of state and executive authorities, heads of commercial organizations, representatives of the academic community in the number of 25 people were invited as experts. As a result of the research on the way to the implementation of the concept of an open state, the main problems identified today are the following: unwillingness of authorities to be subject to control, closeness of information about the activities of authorities, high corruption, lack of interest among citizens, underdevelopment of civil society, bureaucracy of authorities, low level of education and upbringing of the population, lack of an understandable digital platform, imperfection of legislation, “digitalization for the sake of digitalization”, low security of personal data, low level of Internet ownership of technologies, lack of interest among citizens. In order to effectively solve the above-mentioned problems, we believe that it is necessary to further develop civil society institutions, increase government transparency, conduct systematic activities to improve the quality of work of civil servants responsible for citizens’ appeals, train digital transformation managers and, of course, apply digital solutions to increase transparency and efficiency of government activities with regular quality assessment and rating These decisions are analyzed by both the state and citizens to improve the level of information openness.

In the conditions of high dynamics of digitalization of all spheres of public life, the active use of blended and hybrid learning in educational practice is of particular importance. These phenomena have been introduced into the Russian education system relatively recently, which requires their careful consideration and detailed analysis. In the course of the study, the author of the article found that in the conditions of Russian pedagogical practice today there is no common understanding of the term “blended learning”, as there is no specifics in the differentiation of blended and hybrid learning, which gives rise to frequent substitution of concepts and the lack of detailing the difference in these phenomena. At the same time, the analysis showed that blended and hybrid learning are, although similar, but still not identical processes. In particular, hybrid learning involves the priority use of online formats, as well as the parallel, rather than sequential, implementation of innovative digital and traditional educational technologies, so that the difference between online participants and face-to-face participants is practically erased. The study also revealed the advantages, disadvantages and main problems in the implementation of blended and hybrid learning in Russia; emphasis is placed on the transformation of the teacher’s functions in the context of the transition to mixed forms. In particular, it has been established that it is not teaching that becomes the dominant function, but the organization and management of the pedagogical process, its methodological support using the synthesis of various educational technologies, advising students at all stages of mastering educational programs.

Authors:   Belorussian State University, Erovenko Valery A.
Published: January 2023

Students of non-mathematical specialties experience many problems when studying mathematics. This fact implicitly encourages teachers of higher mathematics to turn to psychology and the phenomenon of cognitive dissonance. In the philosophy of mathematical education, the problems of cognitive learning of understood mathematics are solved differently in accordance with cultural and educational traditions. Educational practice shows that mathematical anxiety is an important problem of learning, along with the formation of mathematical thinking.

Authors:   Ural State University of Railway Transport, Pyatiletova Lyudmila V.
Published: January 2023

On specific examples from the field of railway tourism, the issues of the formation of competencies among students in the field of Tourism training in the process of studying the special course “Man and his needs” on the basis of the Ural State University of Railway Transport are considered. Three key skills are identified that contribute to the professional identification of the needs of a modern tourist as an experienced, demanding client of Russian tourism enterprises, the urgent task of which (including within the framework of the import substitution policy) is the production of competitive products in the domestic consumer market. The allocation of these skills as basic for the formation of a professional culture of a specialist in the field of modern tourism is justified — a specialist capable of producing a successful (including financially) tourist product that is in demand among the consumer. Examples of specific tasks aimed at consolidating the necessary skills in the production of tourism products that meet high quality standards (primarily) domestic tourism are given.

Authors:   The Ryazan State University named for S. A. Yesenin, Popova Anna D.
Published: January 2023

The article analyzes the role of a university museum in the formation of students’ vocational skills. The author highlights that it is essential that students should solve pedagogical problems which are equivalent to those they will have to solve in real life. Applied tasks should be relevant and enable students to apply their professional knowledge in real-world environments. The article maintains that a university museum can help solve the aforementioned task. The author singles out a range of varied activities that enable students to accumulate sufficient applied experience: hosting excursions, providing master-classes on interactive museum software to schoolchildren, designing leaflets and display stands. Such activities enable students to gain initial vocational experiences and collect their portfolios which can later come in handy during the job-hunting process. To illustrate such activities, the article describes work of volunteer tour guides of the Time Machine team of Ryazan State University named for S. Yesenin, outlines the principles of their performance and the structure of the team.

Materials for Outer Shell of 1.170 Gwh (1.00669 Kilo Ton TNT) Fusion Device - Weight Basis
Authors: Rafique Muhammad Musaddique Ali
Published: January 2023

With recent developments in fusion engineering, interest has sparked in development of fusion devices for deterrent. Enormous amount of energy generated by combining two light nuclei could be contained and manipulated at will to trigger and accelerate micro explosions (from shock wave, x-rays or ion beam focusing) which finally result in full scale blast. Materials required to make such device are critical. They must possess high strength, high hardness, ductility, formability, drawability, and anisotropic properties. High entropy alloys (HEA) are new class of materials which nicely fulfils this requirement. Essentially, they are solid solutions of multi principal elements (usually > 5) eliminating the need of base metal as in conventional alloys. This gives them many unique properties which may be tailored at will (heat treatment, cold rolling, precipitation, irradiation). They also exhibit excellent directional properties with formation of distinct bands along certain preferred crystallographic planes even in hexagonal close packed structures. These anisotropic properties are strong function of rolling, working, or forging (swaging) direction and can be utilized to benefit. This study encompasses making outer shell of a typical fusion device selected on the basis of the weight, which is a function of area of pay load bay of carrier aircraft.

AIM: The study aims to identify if mutations in the SLC4A11 gene are present in Filipino families affected with Congenital Hereditary Endothelial Dystrophy (CHED). METHODS: This is a family cohort study that investigated the genetic profile of a selected family in Northern Luzon, Philippines, whose members were diagnosed with Congenital Hereditary Endothelial Dystrophy (CHED). A patient who was diagnosed with CHED prior to this study, served as the proband for this family. A detailed family history and a complete ophthalmologic examination were done to each of the family members. A total of six affected members and three unaffected members were included in this study. DNA was isolated from peripheral blood samples of family members, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify the gene’s entire coding region, (19 exons and 2 putative promoter regions), and finally, the amplified regions were analyzed using DNA sequencing. RESULTS: Consanguinity was not present in the family. Corneal haze was reported to be present since birth or shortly thereafter in all affected patients. Slit-lamp examination showed edematous corneas. Molecular studies of the SLC4A11 gene revealed four novel homozygous point mutations variably present in six affected members as well as three unaffected members. One unaffected family member (I-1) had a novel sense mutation absent in other family members. All affected siblings showed little phenotypic variability. CONCLUSION: This is the first report that gives us a genetic profile of a Northern Luzon family with members affected by CHED. This study supports earlier findings that the mutations in the SLC4A11 gene are not consistently the same among different ethnic groups worldwide, probably due to the disease’s genetic heterogeneity. Our study documented five novel mutations adding to the growing list of mutations probably responsible for acquiring the CHED phenotype. It is possible that there are more novel mutations waiting to be discovered in this hereditary disease. Screening for these specific mutations in other families may prove useful for genetic counseling, prenatal diagnosis and the future development of gene therapy.
