Introduction: Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is a frequent infection in patients admitted to intensive care units. The occurrence of VAP prolongs hospital stay and increases health care costs. The objective of this study is to assess adherence of health professionals to a VAP prevention package of interventions (Bundle). Outline: Retrospective, documentary study performed in an intensive care unit of a university hospital. The sample consisted of patients hospitalized in the period from January to June 2014, who met the inclusion criteria. The data collection was carried out through examination of medical records. Results: Increase in hospital stay of patients with VAP and low adherence to Bundle items were verified. Proper cuff pressure and oral hygiene with standardized antiseptic were the items with lower adherence. Implications: The adherence to some Bundle VAP prevention measures was not different between groups of patients (with or without VAP) and showed low values of adherence.

Reflecting on Reflections on COVID-19
Authors: Dam Ynte K. van , WEBBINK Joke F.
Published: June 2020

Aim: This paper is an invited reaction to Platje, Harvey & Rayman-Bacchus, March 2020, ‘COVID-19 – reflections on the surprise of both an expected and an unexpected event’ in CEREM 4(1). In the tradition of critical science this paper starts from a discussion of the assumptions underlying the paper it reacts upon.

 

Findings: The original text is a laudable attempt to initiate a discussion on unpredictable future threats that remains constricted in semantic confusions, misperceptions, misinterpretations, and logical fallacies implying preconceived conclusions. As a logical consequence of a socio-economic system that systematically disregards human wellbeing and welfare – and exploits human weaknesses – in its endless pursuit of short term profit, the current pandemic and its subsequent crisis was expected and predictable, but wilfully ignored. And, unless this crisis will be used to rebuild the socio-economic system for sustainable development, so will be the next one.
Джерела національних перекладів Святого Письма: англо-український контекст
Authors: Дзера Оксана
Published: June 2020

У статті визначено специфіку синхронних та діахронних англомовних та українських перекладів Святого Письма, зумовлену різницею їхніх прототекстів. Виокремлено джерела першого ряду, до яких відносимо масоретські гебрейські тексти й грецьку Септуагінту, доповнені кумранськими рукописами. У свою чергу, масоретські тексти та Септуагінта заклали основу для латинської (Західної) й візантійської (Східної) традицій перекладів Біблії, які актуалізувалися у джерелах другого ряду – Вульгаті та церковнослов’янському перекладі відповідно. До джерел третього ряду зараховуємо канонічні (авторизовані) для певної лінгвокультури переклади Біблії, які офіційно визнані Церквою і/або поширені серед вірян та мають високий коефіцієнт цитування в позабіблійному дискурсі. В англомовному світі такий статус має Біблія короля Якова (1611). В українській традиції складно виділити єдине джерело третього ряду, хоча його функції в різних перекладах виконували російський синодальний переклад, перша повна українська Біблія 1903 р. і переклад І. Огієнка.

Особливості народної ботанічної термінології в українських західнополіських говірках
Authors: Омельковець Руслана
Published: June 2020

The article deals with the investigation of the lexical structure of Western-Polissian dialect which presents a particular interest as far as it concerns lexics reflecting different language changes in local dialect since the Western-Polissian dialect preserves the real treasure for slavic philology. The lexical and theme groups are analyzed in this work. The botanical vocabulary group appeared to be the oldest and the most valuable one for learning in the course of the study of the history of language. The analysis has been carried out from the semantic-motivation point of view. It has been revealed that one part of the names have direct motivation and the other – indirect motivation. Few names can be motivated in different ways. The names of the plants in the Western-Pollisian dialect form a theme group of vocabulary that is rich in the repertoire, high level of representation and the nominative variability of designations. Changing the meaning from well-known trees and shrubs to those phyto-objects that are known only to individual dialect native speakers, they also depend on the expanded range of the plants in the studied area, on the place of their growth, life form, nutritional and medicinal properties. Most plant names are monolexemes. Analytical names are represented mainly by the type of attribute phrase. The repertoire of the names indicates the formal variation of the Western-Pollisian dialect at the phonemic, accent and grammatical levels. The article deals with the topical group of the names of plants which are quite ancient and worth studying in the course of the history of language. In the focus of consideration are the semantic transformations in the result of metonymical changes based on botanical vocabulary, the so-called metonymic transference. It has been revealed that semantic derivatives are the result of the associative connections caused by spatial, time-based or logical contiguity. The author differentiates metonymy proper and the metonymy complicated by derivation. The characteristic peculiarity of the analyzed group of words is presence of absolute synonyms for many notions. Often, in one settlement or even in the respondent’s conversation several notions are used to denote the same phenomenon. Majority of the literary names, especially of foreign origin, have several phonetic, morphologic оr accentuation variants.
Лексико-семантичні та граматичні особливості порівнянь у повісті Володимира Лиса «Соло для Соломії»
Authors: Тиха Лариса

Comparisons, like metaphors and metonyms in the artistic text, add expressiveness and vividness to portraying people, their feelings and the surrounding world. It is one of the most important stylistic tropes, and Volodymyr Lys actively uses this classical figurative language device. It is the comparison that helps the writer to create a specific language picture of the world which represents his idiolect. It is worth mentioning that the creativity of V. Lys, in general, manifests his tendency to create complex artistic images using associations. The majority of the comparative structures are anthropocentric by their nature, that is, in the focus is a personality with the individual distinguishing features, own inner world, communication specifics, relations with nature and surrounding realities. Volodymyr Lys, as a gifted master of a word, creates comparative images on the basis of contrast and does it in his own original way. Most of the comparisons are structures created on a national or traditional basis. Despite this, such comparative constructions in the novel of V. Lys sound in a new way, revealing unique multi-faceted world of the epoch. With their help, the author transmits the entire palette of the relationships between people, their tastes, preferences, attitudes to the world around them, the realities, the new things that appeared in their lives. The central images in V.Lys’ works are the Polishuks and their everyday life. Creating comparisons, the author makes use of the local transformed phraseologisms. However, they are transformed so masterfully that, without losing their essence, they sound in a new way, express the individual speech of the characters, depict their appearance and describe the situation. As to the grammatical features of the comparisons in the prose of V. Lys, both simple and complex structures are masterfully woven into the body of the text, but complex and scattered structures prevail and are of special interest for researchers. Due to their specific structure, they can convey complex feelings, emotional states and attitudes to certain realities of life.
Діалектні та розмовні одиниці в мові газети «Волинь»: стилістичний та лексико-граматичний аспекти
Authors: Деркач Лариса
Published: June 2020

Themass media as a sphere of speech activity represent a certain style of material presentation, the purpose of which is to inform and captivate the addressees. The functioning of dialecticisms in the texts are usually studied in comparision with the stylistic norms of the literary language and considered as stylization aimed at interaction with the reader, approaching to his worldview. Intensive use of territorially specific language elements not only in modern fiction works but also in the language of the regional periodicals and radio broadcasting caused an increase of interest to the scientific studies of functional-stylistic peculiarities of the dialectal words in the language of modern mass media.

The purpose of the research is to analyze the stylistic motivation of the use of dialectal elements in the language of the periodicals, to find out the genre specification of the penetration of regional spoken units into the language of periodicals and their stylistic function.

The article considers the use of the dialectal elements in the language of regional periodical “Volyn” as a means of emotionally-colored attitude of the authors of publications towards certain objects. The importance is placed on the mechanism of comparison, harping different lexical units of the national language in order to achieve artistic and aesthetic effect in journalism. It is proved that the use of geographically differentiated language elements is determined by the expressive function of language in the media. It has the effect of immediacy, informality, communicative interaction with the reader in his own language. Colloquial lexical items in journalism are a manifestation of updating verbalness in the newspaper discourse. The orientation of the media to the daily/spoken language patterns allows to bring the content of the texts closer to the reader's perception.

The analytical and journalistic materials of the newspaper «Volyn» use live linguistic units (nouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs, rarely –numerals) in order to reproduce the regional linguistic flavour, the linguistic characteristics of the subjects of publications. Territorially differentiated units in journalism are a convincing manifestation of the implementation of verbal stylistic means in the newspaper discourse. Dialect and colloquial tokens help to identify the individual elements of the ethno-cultural picture of the world of the inhabitants of Volyn in the language of the regional printed editions.
Концепт освіта в українському та польському дискурсах: міждисциплінарний підхід
Authors: Громик Юрій , Семеног Олена
Published: June 2020

The aim of the study is to reveal peculiar verbalization features of the concept of education in Ukrainian and Polish educational discourses, based on an interdisciplinary approach. The research tasks involve interpretation of the basic concepts, highlighting the essence of the interdisciplinary approach and basic components of the concept of education with a focus on the legislative-educational and educational-pedagogical contexts. The authors propose to analyze the concept of education, taking into account the basic principles of the interdisciplinary approach. This approach involves methods of linguoculturology, cognitive linguistics, pedagogical axiology, and the techniques of the cognitive-discursive, linguocultural, linguoaxiological, and praxeological approaches.

 The conceptual and terminological education thesaurus of Ukraine and Poland is at a challenging stage of development on the way to their integration into the European educational space. The Law of Ukraine “On Education” (2017) defines the concept of education as the basis of intellectual, spiritual, physical, and cultural development of the individual, his/her successful socialization, economic well-being, a guaranty of a society and state development united by common values and culture. In the legilature of Poland (Ustawa o szkolnictwie wyższym), education is compared to a joint public treasure. The documents focus on the lexeme quality and the need for quality development of higher education and science, which contributes to the formation of professional, ideological, and civic competencies in the relevant field of knowledge. In Ukraine and Poland, researchers demonstrate an increased interest in the praxeological aspect of the conceptual sphere of education, the main sememes of which are success, efficiency, productivity, which is, probably, due to both globalization process and mental features of every culture. The concept education is replenished with new terms like continuing education, life-long learning, knowledgable society, education capital, and with international lexemes in educational vocabulary - competence, pedeutology, andragogy, educology. In general, the concept of education combines ethnocultural and European characteristics.
Особливості функціонування арготичної лексики в романі Мирослава Дочинця “Лис”
Authors: Прокопович Лідія
Published: June 2020

The article argues that social transformations in the last decades have actively influenced the language issues. The vocabulary and semantic system have expanded the resources of the language emotional and evaluative means, mainly at the expense of slang vocabulary. The study focuses on the functioning features of the argot vocabulary in the novel “Fox” by Myroslav Dochynets since it is the basic lexical stratum used in communication by the criminal world in the novel. The author considers important issues of the argot vocabulary life, its entry into the canvas of a work of art, its compliance with stylistic and aesthetic norms. The key findings of the study argue that creative originality is determined by the author's focus on the unusual language of his characters, his desire to convey their world outlook and philosophy by means of argot lexicon, and thus to draw attention of the reader. On the one hand, negative lexical nominations prevail (musora, slidak, kent, shushval, chuika). On the other hand, the author appeals to national language experience of a reader and achieves desired semantic and stylistic effect using units of lexical, phraseological, syntactic language levels. The author analyzes contextual synonyms which emphasize the local coloring of the individual narration: koroidka; vypravna colonia; terytoria, de zakon vidpochyvav; nevilnyi svit; dorosla zona. The study sheds light on the processes that take place in the literary language and assumes the need to evaluate all the components of the speech stream, including the dynamics of the Ukrainian argot system development. The conducted research proves that the language of the criminal world is constantly changing, developing, expanding the sphere of influence and use in fiction, that is, the language develops not in its traditional hypostasis, but in oral, spontaneous, socially uncontrolled speech. Thus, jargon is an element of the linguistic picture of the world, a powerful semiosphere of a particular time layer of culture, which opens a meaningful perspective in the word as a quintessence of the socio-cultural, spiritual, and psychological climate of the epoch.

The use of plant products has shown great potentials as alternatives to synthetic insecticides. The present studies investigated the efficacy of Dennetia tripetala and Deltamethrin as grain protectants against adult Sitophilus zeamais in stored maize. Acetone extracts of D. tripetala and Deltamthrin 12.5EC were evaluated in the laboratory based on insect mortality, progeny production and grain damage.  Five concentration levels of each toxicant were prepared including 20mls, 15mls, 10mls, 5mls and 1ml for D. tripetala and 1ml, 0.5ml, 0.25ml, 0.1ml and 0.01ml for Deltamethrin. Controls with no toxicants were included. The design of the experiment was a CRD and each repeated 4 times. Twenty grams of insect-free maize were measured into each replicate vial and infested with ten, 1-5-days old adult insects.  Mortality was recorded at 12, 24, 48- and 72-hours post-treatment. After 35 days, progeny production and number of damaged grains were recorded. Data obtained were statistically analyzed using SPSS version 13. The results indicated that Deltamethrin was more toxic than Dennetia tripetala, however, at 10mls-20mls, D. tripetala showed moderate toxicity against S. zeamais. Comparative mortalities of the two toxicants indicated that Deltamethrin was significantly (P < 0.05) more toxic than D. tripetala at all levels. The studies however, revealed that the application of D. tripetala in controlling S. zeamais could be effective at higher concentrations. Therefore, it was suggested that D. tripetala should be applied at higher concentrations for effective control of maize weevil.

This descriptive survey research investigated the influence of employee demography on bank workers’ team-playing behaviour. The population of this study is the entire bank workers in Ijebu Ode Southwest, Nigeria. Participants were selected randomly while an instrument titled “Team-playing Behaviour Questionnaire (TPBQ)” was used for data collection. TPBQ is designed on a five-point rating scale divided into 3 parts. The first part contains participants’ demographic data, the second part seeks information about employees’ team-playing behaviour. The last part contains items to elicit factors that bring about non-assistive team-playing behaviour at work. TPBQ was examined by experts in Sociology and Measurements for validity. Cronbach alpha method (resulting in 0.79 reliability co-efficient) was used to test the instrument for reliability. The data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics of frequency counts and Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC), Mean and Standard Deviation, and ANOVA.Findings revealed that employee demography (age, sex, years of experience, and job status) have a significant but varied influence on team-playing behaviour of banker workers. There are other non-demographic variables like team’s lack of focus, membership laziness, lack of voice in team deliberations, and lack of interest or required skill for the job or task given, all have high tendencies to bring about non-supportive team-playing behaviour among staff. Recommendations are raised upon these findings.

Se presenta el caso de un paciente de 80 años de edad con diagnóstico de enfer­medad de Alzheimer desde 12 años antes y con antecedentes de otras enferme­dades crónicas, a quien, en una consulta, el médico dermatólogo le diagnosticó un melanoma maligno con metástasis, y le inició tratamiento médico y quirúrgico para el control de su neoplasia maligna.

Previamente, y estando en uso de sus facultades mentales, el paciente le había pedido a su familia que, si aparecía una nueva enfermedad, no le dieran trata­miento, excepto los cuidados paliativos que le permitieran una muerte digna.

El médico hizo caso omiso de esta manifestación y sometió al paciente a trata­mientos agresivos para su neoplasia maligna, que prolongaron su sufrimiento y no le permitieron una muerte digna.
Criopirinopatías: ¿qué son?, ¿cómo detectarlas? y ¿cuál es el enfoque de su tratamiento?
Authors: Gallego Maribel , Jaramillo Catalina , Sierra Jaime , Velásquez Margarita María
Published: June 2020

Los síndromes periódicos asociados con criopirinas (Cryopyrin Associated Periodic Syndromes, CAPS), o criopirinopatías, son enfermedades raras que hacen parte de los síndromes autoinflamatorios, caracterizados por episodios de fiebre recu­rrente e inflamación sin etiología autoinmunitaria, neoplásica ni infecciosa. Entre estos síndromes, los CAPS incluyen tres entidades: el síndrome autoinflamatorio familiar por frío (Familial Cold Autoinflammatory Syndrome, FCAS), el síndrome de Muckle-Wells y la enfermedad multisistémica inflamatoria de inicio neonatal (Neonatal Onset Multisystem Inflammatory Disease, NOMID), también conocida como síndrome articular, cutáneo y neurológico crónico infantil (Chronic Infantile Neurological Cutaneous and Articular (CINCA) syndrome).
Se han identificado mutaciones en el gen NLRP3 como etiología de estos sín­dromes, con un patrón de herencia autosómico dominante en la mayoría de los casos. El diagnóstico suele hacerse por sus manifestaciones clínicas, con apoyo de la biopsia de piel, y se confirma con el estudio genético. Hasta la fecha, el tra­tamiento basado en el bloqueo de la IL-1β, ha mostrado una mejoría satisfactoria en la mayoría de los pacientes.

Published: June 2020

Bu araştırma, 6. sınıf öğrencilerinin STEM temelli ders etkinlikleri uygulama sürecine ilişkin görüşlerini ortaya koymak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın örneklemini 2018- 2019 eğitim öğretim yılında 6. sınıfına devam eden dokuz ortaokul öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden durum çalışması uygulanmış ve açık uçlu sorulardan oluşan veri toplama aracı kullanılmıştır. Araştırmacılar tarafından literatür taraması yapılmasının ardından geliştirilen sorulara uzman görüşü alınmış ve nihai hali verilmiştir. Açık uçlu soru formları uygulama öncesi ve sonrasında kullanılmıştır. Ön test olarak kullanılan açık uçlu soru formu dört sorudan oluşmaktadır. Son test olarak kullanılan açık uçlu soru formuna ön teste ek olarak dört açık uçlu soru daha eklenerek toplam sekiz soru ile veri toplanmıştır. Çalışmadan elde edilen veriler içerik analizi ile değerlendirilmiş ve frekans değerleri elde edilmiştir. Öğrencilere, araştırma sürecinde STEM yaklaşımı, sabit süratli hareket ve ısı yalıtımı konularıyla ilgili ön bilgi verilmiş ve ardından iki konuya ait STEM uygulamaları yapılmıştır. Ön test bulgularına bakıldığında, öğrencilerin fen bilimlerinde deney yapmaktan hoşlandıkları ve daha çok uygulama yapmak istedikleri ortaya çıkmış ayrıca STEM ile ilgili hiçbir bilgiye sahip olmadıkları görülmüştür. Son test bulgularında ise öğrencilerin tümünün STEM hakkında bilgi edindikleri; STEM’i eğlenceli buldukları ve STEM’in birçok disiplini içerdiğini farkettikleri görülmüştür. Ayrıca öğrenciler uygulamalara çok istekli olmuşlar ve sürece merakla yaklaşmışlardır. Süreç sonunda tasarımlarına eleştirel yaklaşmış, eksiklik ya da hatalarını fark etmişlerdir. Öğrencilerin fen bilimleri dersine ilgilerini arttırmak ve sürekli kılmak, üst düzey düşünme becerilerini geliştirmek, eğlenerek kalıcı öğrenme yaşantıları edinmelerini sağlamak amacıyla öğretmenlerin STEM etkinliklerine daha sık yer vermeleri önerilmektedir.
TURKISH CHILDREN’S ON-LINE SENTENCE PROCESSING: EVIDENCE FROM EYE TRACKING
Authors: AYDIN Burcu
Published: June 2020

Sentence comprehension depends on the understanding of both the individual words and their hierarcical relations with other words. So far, researchers have studied sentence processing by using different methods. In this study, sentence
comprehension of school-aged children without developmental language disorder were investigated by using eye tracking measure. The data collection tool consists of ten sets of sentences in four different meaning conditions such
as literal sense, figurative sense, polysemous sense and technical sense. In each condition the same target word, area of interest, were identified, which make a total of 40 target sentences. In this study, ‘the first fixation
duration’, ‘total fixation duration’ and ‘total visit duration’ are used as the metrics of eye tracking data to analyze the processing of different types of Turkish sentences. The results revealed that in TVD and TFD parameters
there was significant difference among all 4 categories of meanings. Furthermore, there was significant difference in TVD and TFD parameter among literal and polysemous meaning categories and figurative and polysemous meaning categories.
On the contrary there was no significant difference among literal and figurative, literal and technical and figurative and technical meaning categories. The results of this study indicate that different meanings of the same word
can cause different processing difficulties. The processing of polysemous meaning takes longer time than processing of literal, figurative and technical meaning. The children have difficulty in making connection between the literal
meaning and polysemous meaning. Educators should improve children’s cognitive abilities and help them to create the connection between the literal and polysemous sense. The results suggest that salient meaning is more activated
than the less frequent meaning. The results of the study are in consistence with Giora’s Graded Salience Hypothesis revealing that salient meaning is activated faster than the nonsalient meaning.

TURKOPHILIA IN THE CONTEXT OF CLAUDE FARRÉRE’S VISIT IN 1922
Authors: ÖZÜÇETİN Yaşar , YURT Ayşenur
Published: June 2020

Beklenti içerisinde olunmadan karşıdakinin kaygısını kendi tasasının önüne koyan, onun için çözüm arayan ve ona faydalı olmak durumuna “dostluk” denilmektedir. Dosta, Türklerin en fazla ihtiyaç hissettiği zaman dilimlerinden biri “İstiklâl Harbi” süreci olmuş, bu süreçte Türklerin maruz kaldığı sıkıntıları kendi üzüntüleri imiş gibi ölene değin sahiplenmiş olan “gayri Türk” yazarlara sayılı da olsa tesadüf edilmiştir. Bu sayılı yazarlardan biri de Claude Farrére olmuştur. Farrére, “dostluk” un anlamına uygun tutum ve tavır içinde olmak için aynı millete veya dine mensup olmanın bir mecburiyet olmadığını göstermiş, insanî ve yazar kişiliği ile Türkleri ve Türkiye’yi zor ve sıkıntılı günlerinde yalnız bırakmamıştır. Farrére, varlık-yokluk mücadelesinde istiklâlini elde etmeye çaba sarf eden Türk milletinin halini sağlıklı bir şekilde gözlemlemiştir. Farrére, Türklerin haklı olmalarına rağmen mağdur edildiklerini dile getirmiş ve Türkiye’ye muhtelif zamanlarda ziyaretlerde bulunmuştur. Farrére, 18-19 Haziran 1922 tarihli ziyaretine ilişkin; Mustafa Kemal’in karargâhına tamamen özel bir ziyaretçi olarak gittiğini, seyahatin amacının; eşsiz bir vatansever olan büyük insanı selamlamak, tanımak ve ülkesiyle bağımsız Türkiye arasında kendisinden daha yetkili olanların işaretini verdikleri dostluk gösterisinde bulunmak olduğunu ifade etmişti. Farrére, Türkiye’nin belli başlı tutum ve değerlendirmelerini zaman ve değişen süreç içerisinde eleştiriye tâbi tutmuş olsa da onun, Türk milletine yönelik alaka ve sevgisi ölene kadar devam etmiştir. Çalışmanın amacı, Türk dostu olan Farrére’in Türk millî davasındaki önemini ve onun Türkler tarafından nasıl görüldüğünü ortaya koymak olmuş, Farrére’in düşünceleri, fikirleri ve önerileri, içinde bulunulan devre göz önünde bulundurularak ele alınmış, telif ve tetkik eserlerden de istifade edilmiştir.
