INFLUENCE OF SYSTEMATIC TAKING BLOCKERS OF H2-HISTAMINE RECEPTORS ON THE DEGREE OF SEMINATION OF GASTRIC MUCOSA WITH HELICOBACTER PYLORI INFECTION OF PATIENT WITH CHRONIC NON – ATROPHIC GASTRITIS
Authors: Avramenko Anatoly A.
Published: January 2021

The aim: To determine the effect of prolonged use of H2-histamine receptor blockers on the degree of contamination of the gastric mucosa with HP infection in patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis.
Materials and methods: 28 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis (the main group), who regularly took H2-histamine receptor blockers for 2 to 7 years, and 30 patients (control group), who never used them were comprehensively examined. Comprehensive examination included: step-by-step intragastric pH-metry, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, helicobacter infection test (НР) (helicobacter urease test and microscopic examination of stained smears), histological investigations of the gastric stump mucous, material for which was taken during endoscopy from 4 topographical zones: from the middle third of the gastric antrum and body of stomach on the big and small curvature.
Results: All the patients in 100% of cases have confirmed the existence of chronic non-atrophic gastritis in both active and inactive stages of varying degrees of severity. Helicobacter infection was detected in 100% of cases. A comparative analysis of the data on the average degree of infection of the gastric mucosa by HP infection in the same topographic zones in the patients of the main and control groups revealed a significant (p <0.05) higher degree of seeding of the gastric mucosa in patients of the main group in all zones.
Conclusions: Monotherapy for chronic non-atrophic gastritis with blockers of Н2-histamine receptors leads to an increase in the degree of gastric mucosa semination with HP infection. This fact requires mandatory parallel use of antibacterial agents – colloidal bismuth subcitrate and antibiotics, with blockers of Н2-histamine receptors.
Technology readiness of medical students and the association of technology readiness with specialty interest
Authors: MacNevin Wyatt , Poon Eric , Skinner Thomas
Published: January 2021

Background: Technology readiness (TR) is a construct which characterizes an individual’s propensity to utilize new technology. Despite increased technology use in healthcare, limited data exists on medical student TR and the relation of TR with specialty interest. This study assesses the TR of 2nd year medical students and its association with specialty interest.

Methods: Respondents completed a survey assessing their most preferred specialty, specialty interests, and technology readiness using a 5-point Likert scale. Using Chi-square analysis, we examined the relation between demographics, TR, and specialty interest.

Results: This study obtained a 45.7% (n = 53/116) response rate demonstrating that 79.2% (n = 42/53) of students were “technology ready.” Male students were more likely to be technology ready (95.2%, n = 20/21, vs 68.8%, n = 22/32, p = 0.02) when compared to female students. Technology ready students were associated with being more interested in “Technology-Focused” specialties compared to students who were not technology ready (88.5%, n = 23/26 vs 70.4%, n = 19/27, p = 0.104).

Conclusions: As a cohort, most medical students were technology ready. It is inconclusive if technology ready students are more likely to be interested in technology-focused specialties due to the limited sample size of this study, although with an increased sample size, an improved understanding on technology readiness and its potential impact on student specialty interest may be obtained. Furthermore, knowledge of TR may aid in developing targeted technology-based education programs and in improving remedial approaches for students who are less comfortable with new technology.
Central and Eastern Europe: Imaginary Geographies, Geopolitics and Security Issues
Authors: Paulovicova Nina , Stępniewski Tomasz
Published: January 2021

The following editorial offers a reflection on the situation of Central and Eastern Europe with a special focus on the European Union’s Eastern Neighbourhood and Russia. In the past few years, we have witnessed the divisive impact of neoliberalism, economic recession, Britain’s departure from the EU, the refugee and migrant crisis which further shattered societies along cultural lines, the aggressive expansionism of Russia exploiting the weakness of the West, and more recently, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic with an unprecedented impact on societies, global health and economy. The editorial reflects on how Central and Eastern Europe scores among the imaginative geographies and how these imaginative geographies translate into geopolitics concerning hard and soft power application in the Eastern European Neighbourhood.
Public debt limit of the EU Member States and its impact on polish legal system – considerations in the context of public finance stability
Authors: Bożek Wojciech
Published: January 2021

The author’s goal is to determine the consequences of implementing treaty solutions concerning public debt to the Polish Constitution and to define the differences between the methodology of counting public debt in the European Community and Polish legal order. The raised issues concern important problems from the substantive and practical point of view, therefore the study’s content is important for science and practice. The research methodology was based on the analysis of the EU and Poland’s normative solutions, opinions expressed in the international and national literature on the subject, and the case law of the Polish Constitutional Tribunal. The paper applies mostly the dogmatic-analytic and legal-comparative method with reference to available statistical data on Poland’s public debt. The study allowed the author to gain an understanding of the significance of fiscal rules implemented at the EU level to ensure stability. Article 216(5) of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland indicates that the treaty solutions regarding the reference value (public debt-to-GDP ratio) were reenacted. However, until this day, the EU and Poland’s debt measurement methods do not fully correspond. In order to counteract excessive debt incursion, a state is required to take not only efficient actions but also ones that are adequate and, to some extent, flexible. This is an expression of acceptance of the EU’s preventive assumptions. However, there is still no full correlation in the methodology of calculating public debt in the EU and the Republic of Poland.

Authors: Orzechowski Marcin , Jartyś Janusz
Published: January 2021

In the article, the authors attempted to analyze the actions of the Russian Federation towards Ukraine. The research goal was to justify the hypothesis that in the case of Ukraine, the neo-imperial expansionist strategy in the post-Soviet area is implemented through the deconstruction of statehood as a result of a hybrid war. The authors try to answer the following questions: what consequences can such actions have for Poland and is there a real threat from Russia for the countries of Central Europe? As a result of the analysis, the authors managed to obtain affirmative answers to the above questions.
The challenges for Central Europe posed by the rivalry of the Russian Federation below the threshold of war
Authors: Banasik Mirosław
Published: January 2021

This article identifies the political challenges for Central Europe resulting from the Russian Federation conducting competition below the threshold of war. The main research methods, both inductive and deductive, were analysis and a survey of the existing literature. There is still aggression in international rivalry, and its level is deliberately regulated so as not to cross the threshold of open armed conflict as defined by international law. The contemporary rivalry of the Russian Federation takes on an unlimited scope and goes beyond the physical sphere: the main emphasis in its application is on non-military and non-lethal forms of influence that can be easily combined with kinetic ones. The exploitation of the space between the binary borders of war and peace was practically verified both under the Tsarist Russia and the Soviet Union. It has been confirmed that a great deal of importance in Russia is now attached to unconventional activities and that their application offers great opportunities to achieve strategic objectives without the need to resort to direct military confrontation.

Recovering Forgotten History: A study case of politics of memory in Poland
Authors: Łazarski Krzysztof
Published: January 2021

The Conference on “Recovering Forgotten History” is one of the oldest attempts undertaken in the III Republic to defend Poland’s (and East- Central Europe’s) image abroad, especially in the US. From 2006, the Conference has organized its seminars, originally bi-annually and now annually, to provide a forum for discussions between the authors of English-language history textbooks and monographs, and Polish historians who review those publications. Arguments are scholarly, grounded in evidence of primary sources and historiography, therefore, they are convincing in combatting Western prejudices and clichés about Poland and East-Central Europe. Additionally, the Conference provides opportunities for sightseeing of Poland’s historical places. As a result, the work of the Conference leads not only to the removal of countless mistakes and misinterpretations in the reviewed books but also to a change of guests’ attitudes toward this part of Europe. For the most part, they are academic teachers, who can also influence students through their classes. The Conference achieves all of this while having very modest means at its disposal.

Die Aufgabe des Artikels ist es, die gebräuchlichsten Namen von Nationalitäten in lettischen Phrasen mithilfe von Wörterbüchern und verschiedenen Internetquellen zusammenzufassen und auf der Grundlage der Erforschung elektronischer Ressourcen herauszufinden, welche von ihnen in der modernen Sprache verwendet werden, bzw. nicht mehr verwendet werden.
Es wurden einsprachige und mehrsprachige phraseologische Wörterbücher sowie erklärende Wörterbücher und Dialektwörterbücher und verschiedene Informationsmaterialien untersucht. Die Suchfunktionen des GOOGLE-Browsers wurden verwendet, um die Verwendung von Ausdrucksweisen zu verfeinern, da der aktuelle Sprachgebrauch und die neuesten Entwicklungen im Internet zu sehen sind.
Im Artikel werden die am häufigsten verwendeten Namen von Nationalitäten zusammengefasst und analysiert.
Es muss gefolgert werden, dass nur wenige (nur 15) Namen von Nationalitäten in den Phraseologismen erwähnt werden. Normalerweise wird der Name einer bestimmten Nationalität aufgenommen, wenn ein Zusammenhang mit dieser Nationalität bestanden hat/besteht.
Oft wird eine Nationalität in einem Phraseologismus nicht als Vertreter einer bestimmten Nationalität erwähnt, sondern um zu betonen, dass es sich um etwas Fernes, Kompliziertes usw. handelt.
Unter dem Einfluss historischer Umstände sind mehrere Phraseologismen entstanden, um die damalige politische Situation zu beschreiben.
Die Häufigkeit der Verwendung von Phraseologismen hat sich im Laufe der Zeit geändert (was insbesondere von Lexikografen berücksichtigt werden sollte). Einige Phraseologismen haben aufgrund von Änderungen in der historischen Situation ihre Relevanz verloren, andere sind noch im Umlauf, andere sind als Reaktion auf gesellschaftliche Ereignisse in die Sprache eingetreten.
Lexikografen müssen diese Änderungen bei der Arbeit mit den modernen Sprachwörterbüchern berücksichtigen und Informationen in elektronischen Ressourcen klären.
Recognition of Power Quality Disturbances using Fuzzy Expert Systems
Authors: Kanirajan P. , Joly M. , Eswaran T.
Published: January 2021

This paper presents a new approach to detect and classify power quality disturbances in the power system using Fuzzy C-means clustering, Fuzzy logic (FL) and Radial basis Function Neural Networks (RBFNN). Feature extracted through wavelet is used for training, after training, the obtained weight is used to classify the power quality problems in RBFNN, but it suffers from extensive computation and low convergence speed. Then to detect and classify the events, FL is proposed, the extracted characters are used to find out membership functions and fuzzy rules being determined from the power quality inherence. For the classification,5 types of disturbance are taken in to account. The classification performance of FL is compared with RBFNN.The clustering analysis is used to group the data in to clusters to identifying the class of the data with Fuzzy C-means algorithm. The classification accuracy of FL and Fuzzy C-means clustering is improved with the help of cognitive as well as the social behavior of particles along with fitness value using Particle swarm optimization (PSO),just by determining the ranges of the feature of the membership funtion for each rules to identify each disturbance specifically.The simulation result using Fuzzy C-means clustering possess significant improvements and gives classification results in less than a cycle when compared over other considered approach.

Introduction and background: Cervical cancer is one of the leading responsible condition for causinghigh death rate among women after breast cancer. It is preventable and curable disorder, but the prevalenceof cervical cancer remaining too high in India. Majority of women do not aware of cervical screeningprocedures. Maharashtra is standing in second position in possessing more number of cervical cancer cases.Methodology: A quasi- experimental pretest and post research design was used to execute the study. Thisstudy was conducted in selected hospitals of PCMC. The samples were the women age group between 30-60 years attending Gynec OPD. The systemic random sampling techniques was used to select the samples.Total sample size was 501. A self-administered tool was administered to find the reasons for participationand nonparticipation in cervical screening. Tool and content validity was done. The reliability of the toolwas done r value is = 0.88. The study proposal has been approved by the Ethical Committee, MGM Instituteof Health Sciences, Kamothe, Navi Mumbai. Permission has been taken from the concerned authority ofthe selected urban health care centers for data collection. The content was prepared on prevention and earlydetection of cervical screening in the form of video and modules in their regional languages.Results: Majority of participants among three experimental groups, about 38.32 % in verbal group, 41.91%in written group and 40.71 % in video group have responded that they could not take part in the cervicalscreening programme as they are very embarrassed with cervical screening procedure. While others hadresponded that, I am healthy I do not have to go for this test, some women said, I have only one sexualpartner so I don’t require this test. A few women have assumed that the test is very expensive, thinkingthat not required the Pap test as no symptoms of cancer observed and other have stated that don’t know thefrequency of test.Conclusion: A key strategy to improve the attendance of the women for cervical screening is to spread theawareness on prevention and early detection of cervical cancer by using various educational methods.

The causes behind most cases of unilateral nasal disorder are inflammatoryin nature and responds well to medical intervention and rarely there is need for surgical management. Thepossibility of neoplastic nature is high when there is unilateral nasal complaint or pathology as neoplasticconditions during their early stages may mimic inflammatory pathologies.Aim of the Study: The aim of the current study was to highlight the causes of unilateral nasal disease, theirmost frequent mode of presentation, management strategies and outcome in a sample of Iraqi patients.Patients and Method: The current prospective study included 96 patients, 42 males and 54 females, withsigns and symptoms suggestive of unilateral nasal disease. The study was carried out at Hillah GeneralTeaching Hospital, Babel province, mid-Euphrates region of Iraq and the work with this study has extendedfrom January 2014 to August 2019. All enrolled patients were subjected to routine ENT examination andoffice flexible endoscopy. Patients were managed by functional endoscopic sinus surgery for purpose ofexcisional or incisional biopsy.Results: The current study included 96 patients with a mean age of 49.09± 7.43 years and an age range of 39 to67 years. There were 42 males and 54 females. The results of complete evaluation have shown the followingpathologies at the end of the study: nasal polyposis (31, 32.3%), chronic rhinosinusitis without polyp (16,16.7%), antrochoanal polyp (14, 14.6%), inverted papilloma (11, 11.5%), frontoethmoidal mucocele (7,7.3%), concha bullosa (4, 4.2%), squamous cell carcinoma (3, 3.1%), rhinolith (2, 2.1%), fibrous dysplasia(2, 2.1%), adenocarcinoma (2, 2.1%), malignant melanoma (1, 1.0%), cavernous hemangioma (1, 1.0%),pyocele in concha bullosa (1, 1.0%) and non Hodgkin’s (1, 1.0%). Therefore, in the current study, nasalpolyposis was the commonest cause of unilateral sinonasal disease followed by chronic rhinosinusitiswithout polyp, antrochoanal polyp and inverted papilloma. The rate of malignant neoplasms was low.Conclusion: Differentiating the neoplastic nature form non-neoplastic nature of unilateral nasal pathologyis the most critical management step and in the current study, nasal polyposis was the commonest causeof unilateral sinonasal disease followed by chronic rhinosinusitis without polyp, antrochoanal polyp andinverted papilloma.

The Afrenta de Corpes: empatía encarnada en el Cantar de Mio Cid
Authors: López González Luis F.
Published: January 2021

Este estudio intenta entender las formas en las que el poeta del Cantar de Mio Cid emplea herramientas retóricas como una manera de aumentar la empatía encarnada en su audiencia. Me centro en teorías de performatividad vigentes durante la composición del Cantar que el poeta cidiano pudo haber utilizado para intensificar el efecto dramático de su poema. El retórico hispano-romano Quintiliano ofrece un manual con normas para oradores y artistas sobre cómo ponerse «en la piel» de las víctimas de violencia y, al hacerlo, mover a la audiencia al llanto o a la rabia. Siguiendo estas estrategias retóricas, el autor del Cantar monta un acto performativo de la Afrenta de Corpes, en la cual los Infantes de Carrión casi asesinan a sus esposas, para mover al público a sentir el dolor desgarrador de las víctimas, así como a sentir una furia intensa hacia los culpables.
Aspects of the structure on the coast of the West Greenland volcanic province revealed in seismic data

The coastal structure in central West Greenland is expressed by Palaeogene basalts which show pronounced seaward dip. Traced along strike the tilted basalts occur in two segments, separated by an area in which dips are low. Within these segments the lavas have been displaced by extensional faults with strike parallel to the strike of the lavas and dip and downthrow to the landward side.

This structural pattern bears many similarities to regional structural features in volcanic rifted margins in other parts of the world, although in West Greenland the continent-ocean boundary is situated more than 100 km west of the coast.

The structure has previously been studied onshore and has now been studied in high-resolution seismic data acquired both west of the coast and in the sounds between the Nuussuaq and Svartenhuk peninsulas. From the offshore data it can be seen that within the sections correlated with mid-Paleocene volcanic rocks onshore, the tilting of the lavas took place almost entirely after eruption, as there is little or no indication of any increase of dip towards the faults or of fan-shaped geometry in cross-section. However, southwest of Ubekendt Ejland and stratigraphically within Early Eocene lavas, dips can be seen to increase with depth in several fault blocks, indicating that tilting was active during eruption of these lavas. It is therefore concluded that tilting of the volcanic rocks in the coastal zone took place largely in the Eocene.

This conclusion is corroborated by the following onshore evidence:

Firstly, the angle of discordance between seaward-dipping Eocene lavas and the underlying tilted Paleocene lavas is small, where observed at all, so the mid-Paleocene lavas must owe their seaward dip largely to tilting during the Eocene.

Secondly, Early Eocene ages have been obtained from sequentially tilted dykes onshore. This tilting and concomitant extensional faulting was contemporaneous with the second phase of seafloor spreading in the Labrador Sea which took place during the Eocene. The first phase of seafloor spreading in this sea took place between magnetochrons 27r and 24r and was not accompanied by significant rifting of lavas in central West Greenland. It can also be seen from the seismic data that the tilted lavas level out less than 25 km from the coast. West of this, the volcanics generally show very low dips and thin gradually towards the continent-ocean boundary.
Fritzolenellus lapworthi (Peach and Horne, 1892) from the lower Cambrian(Cambrian Series 2) Bastion Formation of North-East Greenland.
Authors: Stein Martin

Fossil collections from the lower Cambrian (Cambrian Series 2) Bastion Formation at Albert Heim Bjerge in North-East Greenland acquired during 1950 and 1951 contain some 60 specimens of olenellid trilobites.
Although morphologically variable, the material can be attributed to a single species, Fritzolenellus lapworthi (Peach and Horne, 1892), previously known from the ‘Fucoid’ Beds of north-west Scotland.
Immature specimens allow a first, limited, description of the ontogeny of Fritzolenellus. The presence of F. lapworthi in North-East Greenland offers an important tie point for correlation of Olenellus-bearing strata (Cambrian Series 2, Stage 4) across eastern Laurentia.

Humans have a remarkable fidelity for visual long-term memory, and yet the composition of these memories is a longstanding debate in cognitive psychology. While much of the work on long-term memory has focused on processes associated with successful encoding and retrieval, more recent work on visual object recognition has developed a focus on the memorability of specific visual stimuli. Such work is engendering a view of object representation as a hierarchical movement from low-level visual representations to higher level categorical organization of conceptual representations. However, studies on object recognition often fail to account for how these high- and low-level features interact to promote distinct forms of memory. Here, we use both visual and semantic factors to investigate their relative contributions to two different forms of memory of everyday objects. We first collected normative visual and semantic feature information on 1,000 object images. We then conducted a memory study where we presented these same images during encoding (picture target) on Day 1, and then either a Lexical (lexical cue) or Visual (picture cue) memory test on Day 2. Our findings indicate that: (1) higher level visual factors (via DNNs) and semantic factors (via feature-based statistics) make independent contributions to object memory, (2) semantic information contributes to both true and false memory performance, and (3) factors that predict object memory depend on the type of memory being tested. These findings help to provide a more complete picture of what factors influence object memorability. These data are available online upon publication as a public resource.
The role of gold atom concentration in the formation of Cu–Au nanoparticles from the gas phase

The synthesis of bimetallic nanoparticles need to be controlled in order to obtain particles of a desired size, spatial structure, and chemical composition. In the synthesis of the Cu–Au nanoparticles studied here, nanoparticles can be obtained through either chemical or physical methods, each of which has its own drawbacks. Although it is very difficult to achieve the required target chemical composition of nanoparticles during chemical synthesis, their size can be stabilized quite well. In turn, physical synthesis methods mainly allow to maintain the required chemical composition; however, the size of the resulting particles varies significantly. To solve this issue, we studied the formation of Cu–Au nanoparticles with different chemical compositions from a gaseous medium using computer molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The aim was to determine the effect of the concentration of gold atoms on the size and on the actual chemical composition of the formed bimetallic nanoparticles. The modeled region had a cubic shape with a face length of 1350 Bohr radii and contained a total of 91125 copper and gold atoms uniformly distributed in space. Thus, based on the results of the MD simulation, it was concluded that an increase in the percentage of gold atoms in the initial vapor phase led to a decrease in the size of the synthesized nanoparticles. In addition, it was found that clusters with a size of more than 400–500 atoms, regardless of the chemical composition of the initial vapor phase, basically corresponded to a given target composition.

The paper analyses the situation in the foreign and domestic systems of training specialists in the tourism sector, the role of legal culture in the training of tourism personnel. The purpose of this paper is to form a legal culture by means of the organization of a training process for future tourism professionals. The dynamics of approaches to the training of specialists in the tourism industry and the factors of modern perspective, innovative, and creative activity were determined. The features of tourism and tourism education are considered. The experience of training specialists in leading tourist schools in the world, studying foreign programs and basic models of training and the expediency of its use in the practice of domestic educational institutions of the tourist profile are investigated. Ideas and systems for ensuring the continuity of tourist education from the beginning to the end of a career are substantiated. Particular attention is given to the three basic principles of higher education (accessibility, equality of opportunity, diversity). The specificity of the efficiency of professional activity in the tourism sector and its interrelation with the tourism professional training of highly qualified specialists, who are able to compete in the market of the service industry, are analyzed. The basic approaches to the formation and stages of development of tourist education in Ukraine and in other European countries are analysed. The scientific works on the problems of tourism are examined, the conclusions are drawn for the use of the above experience. Priorities of modern tasks of organizational and pedagogical work in tourism are outlined. The specificity of the efficiency of the professional activity of the tourism sector and its interrelation with the tourism legal culture are analysed. The importance of forming a legal culture in the educational system, in the context of tourist activity, was proved. Reasons for confirming the relevance of the task of developing the legal culture of employees of the tourism industry are substantiated.
