Purpose. The purpose of this work is obtaining connections between the Baltic and European height systems based on the I class leveling between the Ukrainian and Polish control points of the base vertical networks and construction of the quasigeoid surface on the border area. Method. Full integration of the hight system of Ukraine into the European vertical reference system (EVRS) consists of two stages: modernization of the height network of Ukraine through its integration into the United European leveling network UELN; construction and use as a regional vertical date the model of high-precision quasigeoid, which will be consistent with the European geoid EGG2015. The analysis of methods of high-precision leveling in Ukraine and Poland, and also the analysis of methods of construction of quasigeoid models in these countries is performed. Results. For integrating the Ukrainian hight system into the UELN/EVRS2000 system, the Ukrainian side performed I class geometric leveling along two lines: Lviv - Shehyni - Przemysl and Kovel - Yagodyn - Chelm with total length of 196 km. The root mean square systematic error on both lines of leveling was s<0.01 mm/km. In turn, the mean square random error along the line Lviv - Shehyni - Przemysl is h=0.29 mm/km, and along the line Kovel - Yagodyn - Chelm is h=0.27 mm/km. For double control on the cross-border part, the Polish side performed high-precision leveling with a length of 33 km. The differences between the Ukrainian and Polish leveling in all sections are within the tolerance. The analysis of influence of geodynamic phenomena on control of high-precision leveling is carried out. GNSS-leveling was performed on all fundamental and ground benchmarks, as well as horizontal marks. These measurements were used to build a quasigeoid model for the border area of Ukraine. The MSE of the obtained quasigeoid model is about 2 cm, which corresponds to the accuracy of the input information. Scientific novelty and practical significance. The connection of the Ukrainian and European height systems will ensure Ukraine’s integration into the European economic system, participation in international research of global ecological and geodynamic processes, study of the Earth’s shape and gravitational field and mapping of Ukraine using navigational and remote-sensing satellite technologies. Calculation of a high-precision model of a quasigeoid on the Ukraine area in relation to the European height system, agreed with the European geoid EGG2015, will allow to obtain gravity-dependent heights using modern satellite technologies.

Authors: Frolova Elena Viktorovna , Kabanova Elena Evgenevna , Vetrova Ekaterina Aleksandrovna , Rogach Olga Vladimirovna
Published: July 2021

The article identifies the most significant problems of the development of domestic tourism, reveals the main directions of the development of the tourist attractiveness of Russian territories, and justifies the contradiction between the high tourism potential of municipalities, the importance of unique territorial resources, and the low level of their tourist attractiveness. The key problems in the field of tourism infrastructure development are transport inaccessibility of tourist attractions, a shortage of economy-class hotels, regional differentiation (which means that transport, leisure, and tourism infrastructure are concentrated mainly in big cities and are absent in small and medium-sized cities of the Russian Federation). During the population survey, the authors identified the problem of the insufficient relevance of the existing techniques of providing services in the field of cultural and educational tourism, as well as the problem of meeting the renewing needs of consumers by tourist attractions. The article has scientific significance and practical value for the local government leaders and can interest a wide range of readers.

Published: July 2021

This article examines the main methodological provisions for the theory and practice of predictive socio-cultural design. The article examines the main problems, which the developers of projects in the socio-cultural sphere are facing; emphasizes the communicative content and project activities focus; analyses the achievements of the Russian school of predictive social design initiated by T.M. Dridze and their significance for modern design practice. The theoretical and activity-related, as well as systematic and situational analyses of project activity in terms of the social interaction paradigm are considered to be the initial methodological requirements. The social levels of this interaction and the corresponding strategies for project activities are of particular attention. The leading role of the cultural content and the cultural context of predictive socio-cultural design is highlighted in the critical analysis of the project experience accumulated during the autonomous sociological approach and social engineering, which remain insufficiently effective in their development and implementation.

The Japanese rice straw culture started from the Yayoi period, the start of wetland rice method of farming technique. The rice straw culture is spread across Japan, as the supply of the rice straw is high, and it does not require special tools to process it. The rice straw culture is performed both during the special events and everyday life. However, along with the modernization and industrialization of agriculture, the culture slowly disappears. It is increasingly difficult to find the rice straw culture in Japan. To prevent this, several rice straw communities create a movement to preserve the culture. Within their methods, the community focuses on pure preservation, preservation and development or pure development. An example of the community focusing on the preservation and development is the Inagaki Wara no Kai. With this method, this community help to preserve the traditional activities of Inagaki village while at the same time creating new events for wider community. The development is rooted in local and global issues and the process of preserving and developing the rice straw culture is documented through workshops, exhibition and festival.

Authors: Bustos Ibarra Andrea Verónica , Montenegro Villalobos Cintia Susana , Batista Kida Adriana de Souza
Published: July 2021

En la tarea formativa de la comprensión de textos una actividad frecuente de acompañamiento en las salas de clase es la lectura puesta en diálogo con intervenciones del profesor. Una forma de organización de esta actividad es aquella que incorpora episodios con un componente regulatorio que propicia externamente una guía de la acción que permite la justificación de una meta explícita como indicador de éxito. El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar el impacto de un episodio de planificación de la lectura compuesto por ayuda regulatoria oral con componentes asociados a la justificación de la lectura y la explicitación de meta sobre la comprensión lectora de niños/as de 3º de primaria del sistema escolar chileno con una muestra distribuida en 4 grupos experimentales: con/sin intervención regulatoria oralizada y lectura autónoma/no autónoma. Se puede señalar que los estudiantes chilenos se beneficiaron de la ayuda regulatoria aislada o acompañada de la lectura oral una vez igualados en medidas de inteligencia no verbal, memoria, vocabulario, comprensión oral y de textos, precisión y velocidad de lectura de palabras. Esto proyecta la importancia de evaluar y discutir estas repercusiones para en el ámbito de la formación inicial y continua de profesores.

Published: July 2021

Bevezetés: A hipertónia előfordulásának magas gyakorisága a fejlett és fejlődő országokban egyaránt jelentős népegészségügyi problémának számít. Megelőzésében számottevő szerepe van azoknak az ismereteknek, készségeknek, melyek az egészségműveltség részeként az egészségtudatos magatartáson keresztül fejtik ki hatásukat. Vizsgálatunk célja felmérni a 45 évnél idősebb, magasvérnyomás-betegséggel élők egészségműveltségét, terápiahűségét, valamint egészségmagatartását. Módszertan: Keresztmetszeti, kvantitatív, leíró vizsgálatunkat kérdőíves lekérdezés keretében 2019. február-június között folytattuk le. A kutatásba 45 évnél idősebb, Kaposváron élő, hipertóniával diagnosztizált betegeket vontunk be egyszerű, nem véletlenszerű mintavétel alkalmazásával (n=143). Kutatási eszközünk saját szerkesztésű kérdések (szociodemográfiai ismérvek, egészségmagatartásra vonatkozó kérdések) mellett a nemzetközi szakirodalomban alkalmazott, standardizált kérdéseket (Health Literacy EU Q16, Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (8-item) (MMAS)) is tartalmazott. A minta jellemzését leíró statisztikával, a változók közötti kapcsolatok vizsgálatát matematikai statisztikai próbákkal (χ²-próba, lineáris regresszió, ANOVA, független T-próba) végeztük el. Vizsgálataink során a szignifikanciaszintet p<0,05 határoztuk meg. Eredmények: Az egészségműveltség fokára legerőteljesebben a legmagasabb iskolai végzettség (p=0,005) hat, mely az egészségműveltség mindhárom dimenziójában („Egészségügyi rendszerrel kapcsolatos kompetencia”, „Prevenció”, „Egészségfejlesztés”) megtartotta differenciáló hatását. Nagymértékű különbségek mutathatók ki továbbá az alacsony és a magas terápiahűséget mutató válaszadók egészségműveltsége között (alacsony terápiahűség átlagpontszám: 37,52; magas terápiahűség átlagpontszám: 42,82; p=0,040). Az egészségmagatartás és az egészségműveltség közötti kapcsolat vizsgálata során elsősorban az „Egészségügyi rendszerrel kapcsolatos kompetencia” al-index és a rizikómagatartás (dohányzás, alkoholfogyasztás, fizikai inaktivitás) között találtunk összefüggést: a rizikómagatartás jellemzően alacsonyabb szintű egészségműveltséggel jár együtt (p<0,05). Következtetések: A hipertóniás betegek körében végzett vizsgálatunk ráirányította a figyelmet az egészségműveltség és a terápiahűség közötti kapcsolatra: a magasabb szintű egészségműveltség jellemzően magasabb fokú terápiahűséggel jár együtt. A prevenciós céllal végzett egészségfejlesztő beavatkozások tervezése és végrehajtása során ezért figyelembe kell venni a kognitív képességek közötti különbséget, főként az alacsony egészségügyi ismeretekkel rendelkező betegek esetén, melynek eredményeként egészségműveltségük fejlődik, és egészségtudatosabb magatartás alakul ki náluk.

Az iskolázottság, műveltség, mint a társadalmi-gazdasági helyzet egyik legfontosabb meghatározója alapvetően befolyásolja az egészséget. Még a magasan fejlett országokban is igaz, hogy az alacsonyabb végzettségűeknek rosszabb az egészségi állapota. Az egészség-egyenlőtlenségek csökkentésében és a jövő nemzedékek jól-létének fejlesztésében kulcsszerepe lehet az iskolázottság-egészség kapcsolat kutatásának.
Cikkismertetés: Közvélekedés a kábítószer-függőségről és a mentális betegségekről
Authors: Barna Gréta
Published: July 2021

Korábbi kutatások alapján egyértelműen megállapítható, hogy a mentális zavarban szenvedőkkel szemben a közvélemény hozzáállása alapvetően negatív, melynek mértéke az Általános Szociális Felmérés (General Social Survey, GSS) – melyet az Amerikai Egyesült Államokban végeztek el – 1999-es és 2006-os adatait összehasonlítva csekély mértékben változott. Az egyének igénye továbbra is igen magas arra, hogy elkerüljék a mentális zavarban szenvedőket, és többnyire veszélyesnek tartják őket. Bár kevesebb információ áll rendelkezésre a drogfüggőségben szenvedők elítélését illetően, mégis megállapítható, hogy az egyének attitűdje negatívabb a drogfogyasztó személyekkel szemben, mint a mentális zavaroktól szenvedők iránt.

Authors: Habán M. , Zvercová D. , Adamjaková M.
Published: July 2021

Milk thistle [Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn.], a member of Asteraceae family, is one of the most cultivated medicinal plants widespread throughout the world. The pharmacological drug is a ripe fruit without pappus – Silybi mariani fructus – containing flavonolignans and generating silymarin complex. In folk medicine, it is used for the treatment of liver disorders, kidney problems, rheumatism as well as gastronomic disturbances, cardiac and neurotic disorders, and fever. The components of silymarin complex are useful in cancer prevention and treatment. The aim of the study was to determine the amount of silymarin complex contained in the fruit of the harvest of two consecutive years and how much they differ from one another. Representative samples of fruit were collected in 2015 and 2016 and distributed by a company Agrofos (Slovakia). Regarding the analytical method, we used a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC); the method was approved by the European Pharmacopoeia 10. The statistical significance was on the level P < 0.05. The total content of silymarin complex was 15.28 ± 0.06 g.kg−1 (in 2015) and 16.65 ± 0.09 g.kg−1 (in 2016). In both studied years, the highest representation of silybin B was observed (7.04 ± 0.07 g.kg−1 versus 5.92 ± 0.08 g.kg−1). The differences between the individual fractions of the silymarin complex were statistically significant. There was also a significant difference of 9% in the total silymarin content between 2015 and 2016. In conclusion, we can state that both samples of Silybi mariani fructus meet the requirements of the European Pharmacopoeia.

Authors: Dimeny Edina , Bán Erika , Brassai Attila

Objective: Cholesterol is one of the cardiovascular risk factors, but also a core component of the central nervous system. Moreover, hyper-cholesterolemia and hypocholesterolemia are directly related to numerous mental illnesses too. This study intents to examine the association between cholesterol level and autolytic behavior among female psychiatric patients. Methods: The present study involves 123 female subjects, who suffered from suicidal thoughts at the moment of hospitalization. The risk of suicidal intentions was assessed by the Modified Scale for Suicide Ideation (Miller et al) and their total serum cholesterol levels were measured. We performed a case-control, analytical, randomized, observational study at the Clinical Hospital of Neurology and Psychiatry Brasov among adult female psychiatric patients admitted during 2014. Results: By our results we distinguished 3 categories: 38 patients with low suicide risk, 32 with moderate risk and 53 with high suicide risk. Significant difference can be noticed in the higher suicide risk patients’ blood cholesterol levels: 44 patients having under 4,5mmol/L total cholesterol level (83%). Although, in other two categories, this proportion is minimal: in the moderate-risk category were 8 patients, representing just 25 %, and in the low-risk category only 1 patient had her cholesterol level under 4,5mmol/L (2,6%). Conclusions: According to our results, proposing cholesterol-level as a biomarker for the determination of high-risk suicide behavior can be important. The presence of other important risk factors (sociodemographic and psychiatric variables) can increase exponentially the suicide behavior. The limitations of this study are the relatively small number of cases and the lack of longitudinal subsequent follow-up. Further investigations are needed on a larger and more heterogenous sample of patients in order to clarify this suggestive correlation.

Authors: Kokotec Ivana Đunđek , Orsag Silvije , Čalopa Marina Klačmer
Published: July 2021

The research problem of this study is focused on examining the impact of the ownership of institutional investors on the corporate governance of Croatian companies. The problem was approached comprehensively such that institutional investors were analysed as both homogeneous and heterogeneous groups (investment funds, pension funds, insurance companies). The results of this study reveal a statistically significant impact of institutional investor ownership being viewed as both homogeneous and heterogeneous groups on business performance and financial position, which reduces the gap between ownership intentions and management interests, thereby resulting in an increase in shareholder wealth while limiting the satisfaction and social goals of a company.
Perspectives on the Implementation of the 2017 Nuclear Weapons Ban Treaty
Authors: Guţan Sabin
Published: July 2021

The adoption of The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) by the UN General Assembly in July 2017 is a real success for the international community in the fight against armaments and the danger of an apocalyptic war. Despite the scepticism of many, the treaty entered into force in January 2021, with its 50th ratification. Although this story seems to have come to a happy end, it is only now that the turmoil begins. No nuclear-weapon state has supported the adoption of the treaty and they refuse to recognize its legal power. The implementation of this treaty will be the hardest test for the UN. Nuclear states are the strongest and most decision-making, especially within the Security Council. In this context, the question arises whether the UN will succeed in finding an effective way to persuade nuclear states to give up these weapons or whether we will witness an international “putsch” of nuclear states.
An Image of the Evolution of Switzerland’s Neutrality Policy
Authors: Metea Ileana Gentilia
Published: July 2021

The specific elements of neutrality, namely, the national interests, the right to neutrality, the international situation, as well as aspects related to tradition and history, are determinants of Switzerland’s neutrality policy. Switzerland’s role on the international stage is the role of a “silent witness” who transmits his “testimony” through nonverbal language. The effort of the Swiss confederation to preserve its neutrality is the effort of a champion who puts his title to the test again and again to permanently reconfirm the legitimacy of his position.

Military Supply Network at Risk
Authors: Alexa Andreas
Published: July 2021

An efficient supply network is a basic building block of a globalized society and an essential element for maintaining the sustainability of armed forces in an operation. However, the increased optimization of supply chains, the integration of various partners and the resulting complexity increase the vulnerability of supply networks. The protection of internal and external supply chains is therefore important. In order to be better prepared for the future, it is therefore necessary to strengthen the resilience of the military supply network. To this end, risk management must be implemented at the appropriate military command levels in order to be able to take the right measures. Starting with the military strategic level and continuing to the operational and tactical level, a consistent, plausible and functioning instrument dealing with risk management planning, risk identification, risk analysis and evaluation, risk treatment, and risk monitoring must be introduced.
