Defining Edges: Toward a Social Poetics of Housing
Authors:   Washington University, Pereau M. Jana
Published: February 2021

The house, as a formal and functional type, also provides a basic container for culture and for meaning. Its form will not be altered casually, and when people do undertake to change their houses, those changes will undoubtedly signify other changes in their cultural and social world. Along the U.S./Mexico border, the unique political geography of the borderlands allows people to build their own housing on a broad scale - in other words, to build vernacular housing. This building takes place in colonias - outside the constraints of urban zoning and building codes - by a largely Latino and immigrant population.
A case-study in cross-disciplinary student work: a CNC-manufactured body for FSAE racing
Authors:   Florida Atlantic University, Vermisso Emmanouil
Published: February 2021

The project discussed here involves the contribution of architecture students towards the design and fabrication of the body for an open wheel race-car for the annual SAE competition (Society of Automotive Engineers). The development of this body constitutes only a portion of a wider project that involves engineering a fully functional car within the time-span of one academic year, within the school of Mechanical Engineering. Naturally, the overall project involves a wide range of skills that exceed architectural training and the author is interested in this collaborative effort between two distinct departments and the logistics involved in its materialization.
Assessing Measurement Invariance Across Multiple Groups: When is Fit Good Enough?
Authors: van Dijk Wilhelmina , Schatschneider Chris , Al Otaiba Stephanie , Hart Sara Ann
Published: February 2021

Complex research questions often need large samples to obtain accurate estimates of parameters and adequate power. Combining extant datasets into a large, pooled dataset is one way this can be accomplished without expending resources. Measurement invariance modeling (MI) is an established approach to ensure participant scores are on the same scale. There are two major problems when combining independent data sets through MI. First, sample sizes will often be large leading to small differences becoming non-invariant. Second, not all datasets may include the same combination of measures. In this paper, we present a method that can deal with both these problems and is user friendly. It is a combination of generating random normal deviates for variables missing completely in combination with assessing model fit using the RMSEA good enough principle, based on the hypothesis that the difference between groups is not zero, but small. We demonstrate the method by examining MI across eight independent data sets and compare the MI decisions of the traditional and good enough approach. Our results show the approach has potential in combining educational data.
TwoArrests of Harlampiy Ermakov —prototype of the main character of the novel «And Quiet Flows the Don»

Published: February 2021

Во время гражданской войны в России казаки, выступившие в большинстве против большевиков, казались представителям советской власти враждебной монолитной силой.
Лишь небольшая часть казаков поддержала большевиков.
Проводя против казаков репрессивную политику, представители власти в первую очередь старались показать, что карают белых казаков, которые убивали красных казаков.
Случай, когда восставшие казаки казнили казаков, возглавлявших на Дону советское правительство, стал идеальным поводом для репрессий против казаков вообще.
В статье рассматривается судебное дело, в котором уцелевшие после гражданской войны белые казаки преследуются именно по обвинению в убийстве лидеров красных казаков.
Показано, как изменение политики власти по отношению к казачеству влияет на решение суда, как после изменения политики тех же людей и по тем же обвинениям не отпускают домой, а расстреливают.

During the Russian Civil War the Cossacksstrongly acted against the Bolsheviks. Soviet government perceived them as a solid antagonistic force.
Only a few Cossackssupported the Bolsheviks.
The Bolshevik policy of systematic repressions against Cossacks of the Russian Empire was aimed at the White Cossacks who killed the Red ones.
The case when rebel Cossacksexecuted those Cossacks supporting the Soviet Government, became the perfect trigger for launching repression against Cossacks in general.
The article examines the court case in which the White Cossacks who survived the Civil War have been charged with the murder of Red Cossacks leaders.
It is shown how politics affect the decisions of the court.
ФЕНОМЕН ЖІНОЧОГО МИСТЕЦТВА АРТЕМІЗІЇ ДЖЕНТІЛЕСКІ У РАННЬОМОДЕРНИЙ ПЕРІОД ІТАЛІЙСЬКОЇ КУЛЬТУРИ
Authors: Олена Гончарова
Published: February 2021

На основі антропоцентричного підходу до аналізу візуальних самопрезентацій А. Джентілескі у творах живопису представлено художню творчість як феномен ранньомодерного періоду італійської культури як самооб’єктивації мисткині, що, породжуючи нову культурну реальність, виступають водночас засобами пізнання сутності людини. При написанні статті використано принципи і методи філософсько-антропологічного дослідження у поєднанні з хронологічним, іконографічним і образно-стилістичним методами. З поміж філософсько-антропологічних використовувався принцип антропологічної редукції, керуючись яким аналізувалась творчість А. Джентілескі як її само об`єктивація, принцип екстраполяції окремого факту життя художниці та антропологічної інтерпретації еволюції творчості, коли крізь низку хронологічно послідовних творів як образних об’єктивацій, здійснюється спроба пізнання їхнього творця. Іконографічні та образно-стилістичні методи (прийоми композиції, сюжети, колористичні характеристики) – при аналізі художнього відеоряду: автопортретів, алегорій і сюжетних картин. Аналітична робота здійснювалась поетапно як перехід від іконографічної інтерпретації картини з поступовою елімінацією художньо-стильових характеристик як позаантропологічних культурних констант із подальшою антропологічною редукцією культурного образу. Наукова новизна полягає в авторській методиці аналізу творів візуального (образотворчого) мистецтва з точки зору антропоцентричного підходу, а також у розгляді художньої творчості А. Джентілескі як її самооб’єктивацій, що породжуючи нову культурну реальність, виступають, водночас, засобами пізнання сутності людини. Творчість А. Джентілескі в діахронічному розгортанні можна розглядати як феномен ранньомодерного періоду італійської культури, як самооб’єктивацію художниці, в якій простежується еволюція самовиявлення від особистості з традиційним самосприйняттям за соціальними гендерними стереотипами (1610 р.) до феномену особистого життя, який визначатиме подальшу еволюцію її самоідентифікування (зґвалтування 1611 р.) та викорінення почуття сорому через віртуальну помсту (самовиявлення в циклі Юдиф), каяття (цикл Марії Магдалини), провини (цикл Лукреції) та формування складової ідентичності художниці як звільнення від соціальних гендерних забобонів і стереотипів щодо соціально приписаних жінці ролей і стандартів поведінки (цикл Сусанни).

Виявлені підходи до з’ясування поняття «технології», які побутують у культурознавчій, мистецтвознавчій та філософській літературі цієї тематики. Досліджено рівень наукової розробки понять «технофілії», «технофобії», «детермінізму», з’ясовано вплив технічного прогресу на становлення мистецтва й культури загалом. У дослідженні застосовано загальнонаукові та конкретно наукові методи: аналітичний – при розгляді філософської, мистецтвознавчої, культурологічної літератури з теми дослідження; історичний – у простеженні еволюції проникнення технології в культурно-мистецьку практику, концептуальний – при аналізі поняття «технології» та з’ясуванні основних розглянутих концепцій; порівняльно-типологічний – для виявлення рис відмінності технофобії та технофілії як протилежних за змістом концепцій.
ЗНАКИ І СИМВОЛИ УКРАЇНСЬКИХ НЕКАНОНІЧНИХ ІКОН ХРИСТОЛОГІЧНОГО ТИПУ XVIII−XIX СТ.
Authors: Віталій Козінчук
Published: February 2021

Дослідження знаків в українському мистецтвознавстві тісно пов’язане з  рядом  запитів  образотворчого та богословського характеру. Дана наукова розвідка є спробою поставити та розглянути питання про значення символів і алегорій в українському образотворчому мистецтві на прикладі маловідомих ікон, які прийнято називати неканонічними, тобто з певними відступами від загально прийнятих візантійських норм (канонів). Автор аналізує малодосліджені ікони з позиції проблематики їх «канонічної» і «неканонічної» символіки. Широта асоціацій, вивчення культових пам’яток дозволяє автору різносторонньо висвітлити особливості знаків і символів в українських іконах.
ФЕСТИВАЦІЯ: ТЕХНОЛОГІЇ ПОЛІКУЛЬТУРНОГО КОНСТРУЮВАННЯ
Authors: Лариса Бабушка
Published: February 2021

Досліджено феномен фестивації як некласичної моделі сьогочасної святкової культури. Враховуючи досвід концептуалізації свята, увага акцентується на категоризації та диференціації основних смислових елементів і дискурсів, а саме, фестивації як процесу тотального освятковування дійсності, що технологізується, прагматизується, перетворюється на гіперфестивну реальність комунікативної поведінки, своєрідне одивнення дійсності. Виявлено, що виникає гіперфестивна реальність, яка конструюється надлишковістю художних та технічних засобів і прийомів, технік візуалізацій, ідеологій, політик, що формуються у віртуальній, гібридно-презентаційній моделях інформації. Узагальнено, що стратегія апропріації свята та трансформації його в бік фестивації відбувалася шляхом залучення запозичених культурних індустрій як схвальних практик, які в глобалізаційній моделі (як домінуючій) здатні використовуватися поза межами власного культурного контексту.

Published: February 2021

Colonoscopy provides information on the natural history and complications of many lesions. Biopsy forceps provide the opportunity to obtain multiple samples for evaluating the pathogenesis of the disease. Pathologist plays an important role in the diagnosis and management of patients with colitis. It is further made use of for GI cancers that are amongst the commonest malignancies worldwide. This prospective study of 300 cases included colonoscopic biopsies received in the department of pathology. We found out of 300 cases, 237 were non-neoplastic, 12 cases were benign and 51 were neoplastic. Out of the non-neoplastic cases, maximum was ulcerative colitis (UC); followed by acute colitis and chronic colitis. The benign lesions included tubular adenoma and tubulo-villous adenoma. Amongst the malignant ones, moderately differentiated adenocarcinomas predominated. On endoscopic histopathological correlation, non neoplastic lesions, benign and malignant lesions correlated 71%, 100% and 88% respectively. Conclusion of the study advocated that comprehensive histopathological study of the colonoscopic biopsy specimens should be done in constant correlation with the clinical and colonoscopic procedures for follow up of inflammatory diseases like UC and CD as well as early recognition of carcinomas.

Published: February 2021

Background: Global TB burden in India in children is about 2.2 lakh per year, among which pulmonary TB is most common presentation. Childhood TB contributes to about 10-20% of all TB in high burden countries and accounting for 8-20% TB related deaths. Children up to 14 years constitute about 35% of the population in our country and are expected to contribute about 10% of the case load. In order to achieve ‘Zero death by TB’, additional focus has to be directed towards TB in children. Paediatric clinical feature is variable in tuberculosis. Many cases of primary TB infection in children are asymptomatic and remain completely unnoticed or accidentally discovered at a later stage. In this study we looked for clinical and radiological presentation of childhood TB and its correlation in diagnosis within a period of 1 year in a tertiary care hospital.
Methods: Total 254 children suspected of having tuberculosis were enrolled in the study and various microbiological, laboratory and radiological tests were used to diagnose the patients. Clinical samples were processed using standardized protocols. CBNAAT was the initial test of choice for microbiological confirmation.
Results: Among 254 children, 69(27%) had pulmonary tuberculosis, extrapulmonary tuberculosis was found in 76(30%) children. Fever was the most common (in 100% cases) symptom in pulmonary TB. Most common radiological presentation was segmental consolidation (44%). Amongst 69 pulmonary TB patients, 16(23%) were Rifampicin resistant by CBNAAT method.
Conclusion: Primary childhood TB being paucibacillary, makes microbiological diagnosis (gold standard) difficult. In relevant clinical setting, certain radiological lesions may be highly suggestive of tuberculosis: miliary pattern, hilar and/or paratracheal lymphadenopathy with or without parenchymal involvement and fibro-cavitatory lesions. All presumptive TB cases with these radiological patterns are considered to be probable TB and should be subjected to microbiological testing to confirm the diagnosis.

CONCLUSION: Overall findings of the shows that majority of the women 19 (21.66%) having poor knowledge, therefore it is necessary to provide adequate knowledge regarding household waste management.
A RARE CAUSE OF NEONATAL CYANOSIS - CONGENITAL METHEMOGLOBINEMIA — A CASE REPORT
Authors: R Somasekar
Published: February 2021

Cyanosis can occur at any age but it is a great challenge when it is in the newborn. Multiple causes have been established, and it usually is an ominous sign, especially when it occurs with neonatal sepsis or cyanotic congenital heart disease. Cyanosis caused by abnormal forms of hemoglobin can be life threatening, and early recognition is mandatory to prevent unnecessary investigations and delay in management. Abnormal hemoglobin newborn screening is a useful tool for the diagnosis. Acquired methemoglobinemia caused by environmental oxidizing agents, is common, but congenital deficiency of the innate reducing enzyme is so rare that only a few cases are documented in the medical literature around the world. Here I am presenting a case of a neonate with cyanosis as a result of congenital deficiency of cytochrome b5 reductase enzyme. This neonate was found to have cyanosis and appeared blue at newborn follow-up visit. Sepsis, congenital heart disease, prenatal administration, and ingestion of oxidant dyes were excluded as causes of the cyanosis by history, examination and appropriate tests. Chocolate discoloration of arterial blood provided a clue to the diagnosis. A normal newborn screen and hemoglobin electrophoresis made the diagnosis of hemoglobin M unlikely as the cause of the methemoglobinemia (Hb A 58.9%, A2 1.9%, and F 39.2%). Red blood cell enzyme activity and DNA analysis revealed a homozygous form of the cytochrome b5 reductase enzyme deficiency. She responded very well to daily methylene blue and ascorbic acid administration, and she has normal growth and developmental parameters, although she shows an exaggerated increase in her methemoglobin level.
STUDY TO EVALUATE THE VITAMIN D SCENARIO IN AN INDIAN POPULATION
Authors: Begum Firdushi , Borah Papori
Published: February 2021

Introduction : Till the 20th century deficiency of vitamin D which is synthesized in the skin upon exposure to UVB light was largely unknown. But today vitamin D deficiency has taken an epidemic form and is linked with many disease conditions. Several studies have put forward a very high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency among Indians of all age groups.
Aims and objectives : To study the vitamin D status of people visiting a tertiary care centre in India.
Materials and Methods : This is a prospective observational study conducted in the Biochemistry section of Central Clinical Laboratory of Gauhati Medical College & Hospital (GMCH). All the vitamin D reports generated in the laboratory for a period of 9 months were recorded and analysed to estimate the prevalence. Similar to other vitamin D studies, 20ng/ml was taken as the cut-off for vitamin D deficiency, 30ng/ml for insufficiency, and 30-100ng/ml as the normal vitamin D range.
Results and Observations : In this study Vitamin D data of 1000 patients admitted in GMCH was analysed. Of them females outnumbered males (68.7% vs 31.3%). Of the 1000 vitamin D reports analysed 51.9% were found to be in the insufficient range, followed by 30.1% in the normal range. In 17.5% vitamin D levels were found to be deficient Vitamin D status was found to be lower in females as compared to males. 86.75% of females were either vitamin D deficient or insufficient and 71.88% of males were either deficient or insufficient.
Conclusion : In this study 17.5% of study subjects had vitamin D level <20ng/ml, which may be considered as deficient, as per the Institute of Medicine(IOM) which considers a serum vitamin D value of 20 ng/ml as optimal. According to the U.S. Endocrine Society 30 ng/ml is optimal. Due to this variation the recommended daily intakes of this nutrient also vary.
SCREENING FOR 16S RIBOSOMAL RNA METHYLASES (armA, RmtB & RmtC) GENE IN CLINICAL ISOLATES OF ENTEROBACTERIAECEAE FROM A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL IN SOUTH INDIA
Authors: Banu V.K.M. , Lilly R.Beaula
Published: February 2021

Gram-negative bacilli may commonly produce aminoglycoside modifying enzymes. However, any one of these enzymes alone cannot confer resistance to all commonly used aminoglycosides because of their narrower substrate specificities(3,13).But ,the mechanism of resistance mediated by 16S rRNA methylases that methylates residue G1405 is the very high level of resistance to all parenterally formulated aminoglycosides (MIC>128ug/ml) commonly used (16). Screening for 16S rRNA methylase producing organisms has become an essential measure to be taken for epidemiological as well as diagnostic purposes when nosocomial spread of such bacteriae is suspected. Only by early identification of these resistant determinants (armA, rmtB and rmtC) by molecular methods can help us to design appropriate antibiotic and infection-control policies which are necessary to limit the nosocomial spread of these resistance organisms (2).

Published: February 2021

Introduction: In developing countries like India, the various socio-economic factors like anaemia, hypo proteinemia, early menopause, hysterectomy at younger age and loss of teeth at early age are leading causes of osteoporosis. The treatment for all the above problems at community level is difficult job. We advocated IV injections of Zoledronic acid once in a year which is feasible and possible way of preventing the progression of osteoporosis. This is evidenced by decrease in incidence of new fractures in our patients.
Patients and Methods: We studied the efficacy of once yearly IV injection of Zoledronic acid -ZOLE to prevent osteoporotic fractures in the 130 elderly patients and compared the incidence of fractures in the placebo group of 150 patients who were not received the ZOLE injection. The age group ranges from 50 to 70 years who attended OP unit of our Orthopaedic department from January 2018 to December 2019 (2 years). These 280 patients presented with common fractures like fracture neck of femur-110, vertebral fractures-85, proximal tibial fractures-15, proximal humoral fractures-15 and distal radial fractures-55. IV Zoledronic acid was given to 130 patients in addition to fracture treatment. The remaining 150 patients who were not willing for IV injections for various reasons were included in the placebo group of our study.
Results: We assessed the incidence of new fractures in both the groups patients, ZOLE group who received Zoledronic injection and placebo group who were not received injection for 2 years period. The incidence of new fractures was significantly diminished in ZOLE group compared to placebo group. We observed the incidence of all cumulative fractures were 30 fractures (24%) in the ZOLE group and in the placebo group the incidence was 110 fractures (76%). Bone mineral density (BMD) of Lumbar spine, femoral neck, proximal humerus and distal radius were done for all the patients at the time of starting of the study and at 2 years follow-up. We observed increased BMD in the ZOLE group. There were no adverse effects like osteonecrosis of jaw and others in our study.
Conclusion: In rural areas of developing countries, with poor socioeconomic status, early osteoporosis is prevalent and causing the major fractures after trivial injury. Once yearly administration of Zoledronic acid 5 mg IV is safe and effective way of preventing the incidence of Fractures and subsequent morbidity and mortality.

Identification of Procedural Acts Performed at the Hearing: Considerations in the Context of the Actual Utterances of Non-professional Participants of Court Proceedings
Authors: Gmerek Karolina
Published: February 2021

The empirical research of the communication process at the trials which were held in common courts indicated, in particular, that the utterances of trial participants, despite their varied verbal forms, were identified as procedural acts. In addition, these verbal forms were often significantly different from the explicit forms where proper legal terms were used. The aforementioned results of the analysis lead the author to pose the following question: what thought processes (mechanisms) allow for the identification of procedural acts based on the utterances which are not explicit for the performance of these acts. The aim of this paper is to describe these types of mechanisms. The utterances of participants of a trial illustrate the issues taken into consideration in this paper.

The activity and content of superoxide dismutase isoforms (SOD) in granulosa cells from cow ovarian follicles were studied for research after slaughter of cows ovaries were selected, which according to the physiological state were divided into groups: with "fresh" ovulation, at the site of the ovulated follicle there is a hole, no corpus luteum or diameter up to 5 mm, red color (n = 14); with "early corpus luteum", diameter 10-20 mm, color red or brown (n = 41); with “late corpus luteum", diameter 5–15 mm, color yellow (n = 32); "follicular growth", without the corpus luteum (n = 84). The ovaries of cows with small (<4 mm), medium (4 - 7 mm) and large (> 7 mm) follicles were used. Antral fluid was obtained from the follicles, from which granulosa cells were isolated. Cells were suspended according to the volume of follicular fluid in the medium Dulbeccos modified Eagle medium (DME) with the addition of estrus serum of cows, follicular fluid, insulin and heparin. In cell culture, protein concentration, activity, and superoxide dismutase isozymes were determined. It was found that granulosa cells are characterized by SOD activity - 12.4 ± 0.74 IU / mg protein (6.8 ± 1.72 - 19.8 ± 3.75 IU / mg protein). The activity of SOD in the culture of granulosa cells had 5–6 isoforms of the enzyme. It was found that isoforms at the site of localization are divided into cytosolic, mitochondrial and extracellular proteins of SOD. The cytosolic isoform were represented by 3 - 4, and mitochondrial and extracellular have one active protein of the enzyme. he activity of the enzyme and the content of isoforms depended on the size of the follicles from which the cells are removed and the physiological state of the ovaries. The studied indicators characterize the intensity of oxidative metabolism as a whole in cells and in their individual parts and organelles. For cultivation, it is advisable to select granulosa cells from ovarian follicles of "follicular growth" and "late corpus luteum" because they are characterized by consistently high activity of SOD, which protects intracellular components from the cytotoxic action of superoxide anion.

Published: February 2021

The article presents the results of studies of erythrocytopoiesis in horses with herpesvirus infection of the first type (rhinopneumonia) and respiratory manifestations of herpesvirus of the second type and their coexistence in animals. In the general pathology of horses, herpesvirus infections of horses occupy a leading place, and diseases of mixed etiology, which occur with atypical manifestations of clinical signs, are of particular concern.

The work was performed in 2018 on the basis of the laboratory of the Department of Microbiology, Pharmacology and Epizootology of Polissya National University on breeding horses belonging to the Nahiryan branch of PJSC "Rise-Maximko" Ternopil region. Blood for the study was taken from the jugular vein against Jugulares in the morning before feeding Diagnostic studies to confirm herpesvirus infection were performed in the reaction of delayed hemagglutination, reaction and diffusion deposition - for herpes of the first type and in the reaction and diffusion precipitation to herpesvirus infection of the second type.

Evaluation of erythrocyte indices allows you to get an idea of the characteristics of erythrocytes, which is very important in determining the type of anemia. Erythrocyte indices often respond quickly to the treatment of anemia and can be used to assess the effectiveness of therapy. The studies revealed a significant decrease in the number of leukocytes P ≤ 0.05 in animals of all experimental groups. Regarding hematocrit and erythrocyte counts, a significant decrease in P ≤ 0.05 was found in horses affected by EHV-1, and in the case of coexistence of two types of pathogens - a significant decrease in P ≤ 0.01. Erythrocyte index indices for herpesvirus infection of the first type in horses were characterized by a significant P ≤ 0.05 increase in the mean hemoglobin concentration in erythrocytes and a significant P ≤ 0.05 decrease in the mean erythrocyte volume. In herpesvirus infection of the second type, the fluctuations of the indices were not significant. In the combined course of the two types of viruses in horses, a significant increase in P ≤ 0.05 hemoglobin content in one erythrocyte and a significant P ≤ 0.05 increase in the average volume of erythrocytes.
