Authors: R Dr. Tejashree , BR Dr. Hemalatha
Published: February 2022

Background: The postoperative sequelae after third molar surgery include pain, swelling and trismus, Flurbiprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and the anti-inflammatory mechanism of Flurbiprofen is thought to involve inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis, in common with other NSAIDs. Prostaglandins such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and other inflammatory mediators released in response to pain or non-infectious stimulants trigger a complex inflammatory cascade that contributes to inflamation symptomsThis study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of oral Flurbiprofen lozenge given 30 min before surgery on reducing postoperative sequelae. Method: We recruited 70 patients, randomly assigned to two groups: Flurbiprofen and Control group, groups received 100mg Flurbiprofen lozenge, placebo lozenge 30 min before surgery respectively and every 6h till 72h after surgery. Third molar extraction was performed under local anesthesia. After extraction, pain, swelling, and mouth opening in both groups observed till 72h. Statistical Analysis: Preoperative and postoperative measurement of visual analog scale scores for pain, edema, interincisal opening, was analyzed using Student t test or ANOVA, Chi-square or Mann-Whit-ney U test was performed for non-parametric samples. P < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results: The overall incidence of Pain in the Flurbiprofen group was 18% compared to 43% in the Control group (P = .003) Incidence of Pain, swelling, and mouth opening at different time intervals 6h, 24h, 48h and 72h were significantly (P >0.05) better in Flurbiprofen group. Conclusion: Oral Flurbiprofen lozenge administered 30 minutes preoperatively can significantly reduce postoperative sequelae after third molar extraction.

Structural and functional intestinal barrier abnormalities and chronic kidney disease. Literature review. Part I
Authors: Pyatchenkov M. O. , Markov A. G. , Rumyantsev A. Sh.
Published: February 2022

The gut microbiota is an essential part of the human organism, which plays a crucial role in maintaining its homeostasis. Peaceful coexistence with trillions of microorganisms mainly depends on the normal functioning of cellular and extracellular components of the intestinal mucosa, often called the "intestinal barrier". This barrier protects the organism against pathogenic infections while and at the same time satisfying its requirements for digestion and absorption of nutrients. It is not surprising that structural and functional intestinal barrier abnormalities are involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases including various nephropathies. The pathogenetic interconnection between the intestine and the kidneys is bidirectional. On the one hand, uremia affects the microbiota composition and the integrity of the intestinal epithelium. On the other hand, uremic toxins translocation, formed as a result of abnormal microbial metabolism, from the intestine into circulation through the ultra-permeable barrier contributes to the progression of renal dysfunction. Furthermore, according to a number of researchers, dysbiosis and the leaky gut syndrome are considered as one of the possible causes of anemia, nutritional disorders, cardiovascular and many other complications, often diagnosed in patients with chronic renal disease. The first part of the review reflects modern data about normal intestinal barrier structure and physiology, as well as methods for studying the intestinal wall integrity and permeability. The significant role of microbiota in the regulation of the barrier properties of the intestinal mucous and epithelial layer is emphasizing. The main differences between the intestinal microflora of patients with nephropathies from healthy people are presented, possible causes of their occurrence are discussed.

Authors: Natochin Yu. V. , Chernyshev O. B.
Published: February 2022

THE AIM. To study the key homeostatic physicochemical parameters of blood serum characterizing the patient's state with COVID-19 of varying severity. Patients and methods. The study involved 94 patients with COVID-19, age from 24 to 102 years, median – 67 years, men – 43, women – 51. Patients were divided into 3 groups: 1st – 40 patients with a relatively mild course, 2nd – 22 patients with a severe course of the disease, after treatment they were discharged from the clinic, the 3rd – 32 patients with a very severe course of COVID-19 and a fatal outcome. The concentration of ions in blood serum was measured on a Gem Premier 3000 (Instrumentation Laboratory, USA), clinical analysis was performed on a BC-5380c Mindray hematology analyzer (Mindray, China), biochemical studies were performed on an Architech c4000 analyzer (Abbott Laboratories, USA). RESULTS. The harbingers of a serious impairment in patients with COVID-19 were an increase in the Na+/K+ ratio in blood serum from 32,7±0,8 to 44,7 ± 2.1 (p<0,01), a decrease in the concentration of ionized Ca2+ from 1,08 ± 0,01 to 0,9 ± 0,03 mmol/l (p<0,01), a sharp increase in the concentration of C-reactive protein from 43,6±8,6 to 175 ± 14,7 mg/l (p<0,01). Within the reference values with COVID-19 the concentration of bilirubin and creatinine in the blood serum remained normal; the concentration of total protein was at the lower limits of the normal range, the glucose level was slightly higher than normal, and ferritin was increased compared to the reference values. CONCLUSION. Harbingers of a sharp impairment in COVID-19 are an increase in the Na+/K+ ratio in the blood serum, a decrease of the of ionized Ca2+ concentration, a sharp increase in C-reactive protein concentration.
Urine uromodulin and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors: is there a relationship?
Authors: Khasun M. H. , Rumyantsev A. Sh. , Galkina O. V. , Korosteleva N. Yu.
Published: February 2022

BACKGROUND. Uromodulin (UMO) is a multifunctional glycoprotein expressed in epithelial cells of the thick ascending part of the loop of Henle. Currently, enough information has been accumulated about the participation of this glycoprotein in a number of important physiological and pathological processes. THE AIM: to evaluate the relationship between the level of urine uromodulin (Umo) and the intake of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors in chronic kidney disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS. 96 patients aged 43.6±15.4 years were examined. (M:W = 46:50). The presence of kidney disease in all cases is confirmed morphologically. The main criterion for the inclusion of patients in the study was the presence of CKD C1-C3. The exclusion criteria were age over 70 years, the presence of diabetes mellitus, immunosuppressive therapy at the time of examination, taking diuretics. Umo concentrations in blood serum (SUmo) and urine (UUmo) were measured by enzyme immunoassay. Serum and urinary concentrations of creatinine, potassium, sodium, chlorine, calcium, and inorganic phosphorus, as well as protein levels in urine, were also determined. The glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the formula CKD-EPI. The values of daily excretion, clearance, and fractional excretion were calculated for all ions. RESULTS. The patients were divided into two groups: group 1 – 20 people who did not take ACE inhibitors; group 2 – 78 people who took ACE inhibitors. The content of Umo in urine correlated in the first group with the value of systolic and diastolic blood pressure and serum Umo. In the second group, associations of the concentration of Umo in urine with age, eGFR, the excreted fraction of sodium and chlorine, and serum Umo were noted. CONCLUSION. The data obtained suggest that the nephroprotective properties of ACE inhibitors are broader than is commonly thought. Our data allow us to talk about their protective effect at the level of the tubular apparatus. The authors believe that the information currently available is quite sufficient to discuss the need to introduce the definitions of SUmo and UUmo into real clinical practice.

The problem of Indonesian Workers (TKI) already exists from the management of a number of labor distribution companies. The factor of the low education of prospective Indonesian Workers is also a problem which results in them facing the risk of being easily cheated by others. In addition the problem occurs because of the lack of understanding of the rules and requirements for working abroad, as well as the falsification of labor documents. Whereas the basic rights inherent in the individual including Indonesian workers are protected in the eyes of the law, so that various problems regarding the torture of Indonesian migrant workers abroad, basically contradict what is stated in the General Statement on Human Rights. The Government has issued legislation to guarantee the protection of Indonesian Workers as migrant workers as stipulated in Law Number 18 of 2017 concerning the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers. The Law on the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers also provides legal, social and economic protection.

Statement of the problem. Reliable operation of modern high-precision gas flow reduction and control systems located in cabinet, block and capital gas distribution points calls for the use of two-stage cylindrical gas purification plants containing preliminary and fine filters. An urgent task is to design and scientifically substantiate the use of cost-effective two-stage natural gas purification devices located at gas distribution points as well as the development of analytical calculation methods for identifying pressure losses in the filter elements of two-stage cylindrical installations and the timing of their regeneration.Results. Theoretical and experimental identification of pressure losses depending on the degree of clogging of a multilayer filter element with mechanical impurities is given.Conclusions. Analytical equations for identifying pressure losses are obtained which differ from the known solutions in that the effect of clogging with mechanical impurities in a multilayer filter cloth is first presented as the sum of pressure losses on a number of clean calibrated grids located one after another, with the cell sizes of each subsequent grid less than the previous one.

CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT, ACADEMIC LOCUS OF CONTROL, AND COMMUNICATION COMPETENCE: A STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODEL ON LANGUAGE LEARNING ATTITUDES
Authors: Gemma Landerio–Reyes  , Marilou Y. Limpot
Published: February 2022

This research aimed to establish the best-fit structural model for learning the Filipino language. Specifically, the study intended to determine the relationship between the exogenous variables: classroom management, academic locus of control, communication competence, and the endogenous variable: language learning attitudes. Four hundred respondents, chosen through stratified random sampling, took the survey. The mean, Pearson r, regression analysis, and structural equation modeling (SEM) analyzed the data. These are the results: both exogenous and endogenous variables have high levels, the relationship between classroom management, academic locus of control, and language learning attitudes are moderate, positive, and significant. However, communication competence did not substantially affect language learning attitudes. Of the three exogenous variables, the academic locus of control has the most influence on language learning attitudes. The structural equation modeling (SEM) result showed all three exogenous variables as predictors of language learning attitudes, with their manifest variables. For example, classroom management manifested by specific teaching strategy and planning and support; academic locus of control demonstrated by being hopeful, being positive, and better planning; communication competence exemplified by communicating with acquaintances and friends. The findings of this study have insinuations for the overall teaching and learning environment.

Complementary and Alternative Medicine Utilization among Pregnant Women Attending Antenatal Care Clinics in Tongaren Sub-County, Kenya: a Cross-sectional Survey
Authors: MAKHAPILA MARTHA , Makalliwa George , Mong’are Samuel
Published: February 2022

Background: In Kenya, Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) has been used in almost every culture to manage intolerable symptoms of pregnancy since ancient times. However, studies in Kenya have focused on herbal medicine which is just one of CAM practices. In rural settings (such Tongaren Sub-County), no studies have ever evaluated the prevalence and determinants of CAM use during pregnancy including the common CAM modalities used, and so there is need to bridge these knowledge gaps. 
Purpose: This study aimed at determining the prevalence of CAM utilization and associated factors among pregnant women attending antenatal care clinics in Tongaren Sub-County, Bungoma County.
Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study design was employed in collecting data from 340 pregnant women attending antenatal clinics in Tongaren, Kenya. Quantitative data was collected through semi-structured questionnaires. Chi-square test was used to establish the associations between socio-demographic variables and CAM usage, and multiple logistic regressions were used to examine the relative effects of the various aspects of the variables which were significantly associated with CAM usage.
Results: Among the 340 participants, 50.7% indicated using CAM modalities during pregnancy, indicating that CAM use prevalence in Tongaren is about 50%. 55.80% of CAM users concomitantly use CAM and conventional medicine. The high CAM use prevalence among participants was motivated by the preference of CAM over conventional medicine for certain illnesses (31.4%) and the perceived lack of response to conventional medicine (20.1%). It was noted that marital status, educational attainment of the spouse, employment status, occupation type, and household monthly income level are the major determinants of CAM usage. From the logistic regression analysis, the variables positively associated with CAM use among pregnant women were married status (Odds ratio (OR) = 2.341, p = 0.008), having a spouse with informal education (OR = 5.371, p < 0.001), self-employed status (OR = 0.415, p = 0.028), farming occupation (OR = 2.777, p = 0.206), and household monthly income higher than 35,000 Kshs (OR = 0.093, p = 0.012).
Conclusions: Due to the widespread trust in the safety and efficacy of CAM, the utilization of CAM during pregnancy is common among women in Tongaren Sub-County, which is a rural setting, and therefore CAM can be regarded as the backbone of rural health care in Kenya.
indigenismos en el discurso médico de la Guatemala decimonónica: una aproximación a partir del Método preservativo y curativo de la cólera (1833)
Authors: Ramirez Luengo José Luis
Published: February 2022

La historia del léxico médico en Guatemala constituye un tema que hasta el momento ha recibido muy poca o nula atención por parte de los estudiosos; precisamente por esto, el presente trabajo pretende aportar una aproximación a esta materia en el siglo XIX por medio del análisis de los indigenismos que pueden descubrirse en el Método preservativo y curativo de la cólera, texto divulgativo publicado en la Ciudad de Guatemala en 1833. Teniendo en cuenta este propósito, los objetivos concretos que se persiguen son los siguientes: (a) registrar los indigenismos léxicos que son utilizados en el corpus; (b) analizar estas voces de acuerdo con factores tales como su origen etimológico, su campo léxico o su carácter de americanismo desde una perspectiva de uso y dinámica de ese concepto; (c) señalar su carácter de primeras dataciones, sean absolutas o centroamericanas; y en definitiva, (d) comprender las razones que justifican su empleo tanto en el corpus como en el discurso de la práctica médica en general.

Published: February 2022

El recibimiento del real sello fue uno de los más destacados ceremoniales de exaltación de la lealtad en las audiencias americanas. La Breve relación de la solemnidad y augusta pompa con que se recibio en la Capital del Reyno de Guatemala el Real sello de nuestro reinante Catolico Monarca el Señor Carlos IV (1793) es la única de este tipo que se publicó en el reino de Guatemala. Este artículo pretende dar cuenta, a partir del estudio de su estructura retórica o dispositio, de la persistencia de un modelo de escritura festiva —patrones estéticos y políticos— que comienza a desarrollarse en el siglo XVI, pero que a fines del XVIII muestra claros signos de transformación. Además de destacarse el aporte del real sello a la construcción simbólica del poder real, se busca demostrar la superposición de las fórmulas retóricas barrocas e ilustradas en el periodo final de la colonia.

Was macht den Unterschied im Lehr-Lern-Prozess aus? In der Unterrichtsforschung wird in erster Linie die Ansicht vertreten, dass dabei alles auf die Expertise der Lehrperson ankommt. Es wird postuliert, dass der Erfolg bzw. Misserfolg der Schüler*innen beim (Fremdsprachen-)Lernen hauptsächlich auf Lehrkräfte zurückzuführen ist und vorwiegend davon abhängt, welche Geisteshaltungen den Handlungen und Entscheidungen der Lehrenden zugrunde liegen. Im vorliegenden Buch wird zum einen die Relevanz der Rollenvorstellungen von Lehrenden für die Prozessqualität des Unterrichts untersucht, zum anderen der Veränderungsprozess einiger Aspekte des Lehrer*innen-Handelns im Lehr-Lern-Prozess.

Relating English Language Proficiency to Academic Performance among non-English Speaking Undergraduate Students in Kenyan Universities
Authors: Kithinji Winfred K. , OHirsi Adam I.
Published: February 2022

In Kenya, English language is the standard medium of instruction at primary and post-secondary levels of education and training. At universities, English is the primary language of academics and research. Its mastery and proficiency among students and staff also influence the overall learning experience. This research paper examined the influence of English language proficiency on academic performance among non-English speaking undergraduate students in Kenyan universities. These are foreign students whose countries of origin do not use English as the main language of instruction. The study was conducted in six universities that use the Grade Point Average in determining academic performance. The mixed methods research design was utilized to gather both qualitative and quantitative data concurrently. Using the purposive sampling techniques, 61 foreign students and 13 academic staff teaching were selected, while semi structured questionnaires and document analysis guide were used to collect data. The findings revealed a positive correlation between English language proficiency and academic performance (.000). It also emerged that over 76% undergraduate students from non-English speaking backgrounds lacked the expected language skills for quality learning experience. Specifically, students’ difficulties in listening and speaking had the strongest influence on their academic performance (Rs =1.000, p<0.01). Finally, the study recommended the need for universities to conduct English proficiency assessment when admitting undergraduate students from non-English speaking countries. It also suggested academic writing and mentor support programs to equip foreign undergraduate students with the requisite English literacy skills. The study further recommended faculty to practice pedagogical approaches that nurture foreign students to actively engage in the academic and social interactions.

Published: February 2022

The article is devoted to the analysis of Osama Tezuka’s manga “Crime and Punishment”, based on the novel by Fyodor Dostoevsky. The study describes the mechanism of the intersemiotic translation of the novel genre into the space of manga. The purpose of the work is to consider the manga of Osama Tezuka simultaneously in the light of two approaches: literary and linguistic. The authors regard the work of a Japanese author as a creolized text. The leading role in it is played not by the verbal component, but by the pictorial one. The subject of analysis is the specific features of manga - polycode and performativity. The results of the research can find application in the practice of analyzing Dostoevsky’s novel as additional material.

AVDOTYA RASKOLNIKOVA AS THE CENTER OF THE LOVE PLOT IN THE NOVEL «CRIME AND PUNISHMENT»
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University of Economics, Makaricheva N. A.
Published: February 2022

In Crime and Punishment, Dostoevsky focuses on the ethical confrontation between Sonya Marmeladova and Rodion Raskolnikov, weakening their love relations so as not to get away from the main problem. Therefore, the love story in the novel “Crime and Punishment” is concentrated around Avdotya Raskolnikova. An analysis of Dunya’s relationships with Svidrigailov, Luzhin and Razumikhin allows us to identify such plot features as the absence of open acute conflicts between male or femalerivals. Dostoevsky’s novel depicts various types of psychological relationships between men and women, as well as various versions of marriage. Particular attention is paid to the image of Avdotya Raskolnikova, as a special stage in the evolution of the image of the proud (infernal) heroines of Dostoevsky. In her relationship with Dmitry Razumikhin, you can find a dialogue with the plot of the relationship between the heroes of the novel by N. G. Chernyshevsky “What is to Be Done?”

Authors:   Vladimir Dahl Russian State Literary Museum, Shaulov S.S.
Published: February 2022

The article considers the issue of artistic reflections of the Kumanin’s heritage case in the novel The Brothers Karamazov . In the novel the author fully manifested the algorithm of the artistic ‘refusion’ of the facts from his own lifetime and the family history. That resulted in the ‘text of life’ transforming into the literary text. The heritage dispute had become the plot stem of the novel. It also got complicated with a moral&psychological and philosophical&religious conflicts. The dispute threw the shadow over the narrative structure of the novel. The same event is interpreted in the book from different subjective viewpoints that define moral (self)estimations of the heroes. Rising above different interpretations of justice, legal and moral rights in relation to the heritage case, the artist of Dostoevsky gives the readership a potential opportunity to assess them from the Christianity prospective.

Здійснено аналітичний огляд розподілу між закладами вищої освіти бакалаврської і магістерської підготовки за спеціальностями у Києві. З’ясовано надмірне поширення багатьох спеціальностей груп мистецтва, гуманітарних і соціальних наук, що зумовлює невиправдане розпорошення і дублювання підготовки, відтак деконцентрацію і послаблення кадрового, дослідницького, інноваційного, інфраструктурного, організаційного і фінансового ресурсу, зрештою втрату конкурентоспроможності. Натомість скромно представлена або взагалі відсутня підготовка за низкою актуальних STEM спеціальностей, що суперечить інноваційному високотехнологічному типу прогресу людства, а, отже, спричиняє відставання від глобального розвитку. Надано практичні рекомендації щодо вдосконалення столичної університетської мережі шляхом укрупнення закладів, оптимізації структури підготовки в них з використанням акредитаційних, рейтингових, класифікаційних й інших механізмів оцінювання якості інституційної діяльності. Рекомендації можуть бути використані для створення регіональних стратегій університетського розвитку в Україні.

Review question / Objective: P: Breast cancer patient; I: Single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with breast cancer risk; C: Healthy person; O: By comparing the proportion of SNP mutations in the tumor group and the control group, the effect of BREAST cancer risk-related SNP was investigated; S: Case-control study. Condition being studied: Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common cancers among women, and its morbidity and mortality have continued to increase worldwide in recent years, reflecting the strong invasiveness and metastasis characteristics of this cancer. BC is a complex disease that involves a sequence of genetic, epigenetic, and phenotypic changes. Polymorphisms of genes involved in multiple biological pathways have been identified as potential risks of BC. These genetic polymorphisms further lead to differences in disease susceptibility and severity among individuals. The development of accurate molecular diagnoses and biological indicators of prognosis are crucial for individualized and precise treatment of BC patients.
