Bibliografija radova hrvatskih autora o obrazovanju informacijskih stručnjaka
Authors: Lakuš Jelena , Stanarević Katavić Snježana , Žilić Tomislava
Published: January 2021

Cilj. U radu se donosi bibliografija znanstvenih i stručnih radova hrvatskih autora o obrazovanju informacijskih stručnjaka iz triju grana informacijskih i komunikacijskih znanosti – arhivistike i dokumentalistike, knjižničarstva i muzeologije. Rad ima za cilj dati kvantitativni i kvalitativni uvid u hrvatsku znanstvenu i stručnu produkciju iz navedenoga područja, te ukazati na njegovu važnost u etabliranju informacijskih znanosti u nas.        
Metodologija. U svrhu pronalaska relevantnih radova o temi, pretraženi su domaći izvori (Hrvatska znanstvena bibliografija, Hrčak - Portal znanstvenih časopisa Republike Hrvatske i katalog Nacionalne i sveučilišne knjižnice Zagreb), strane bibliografske, citatne i baze punog teksta u području društvenih znanosti dostupne preko Portala elektroničkih izvora za hrvatsku akademsku i znanstvenu zajednicu, te tražilica znanstvene literature Google Scholar. U nastojanju da bibliografija bude što cjelovitija, pretraženi su i popisi literature u identificiranim radovima, pa je bibliografija tako rađena i  de visu. Učinjena je i kvantitativna i kvalitativna analiza prikupljenih bibliografskih jedinica, kao i njihova analiza prema autorstvu, vrsti radova i jeziku.          
Rezultati. Kvantitativna analiza je pokazala da su se prvi radovi pojavili već početkom pedesetih godina 20. stoljeća te da se već tada promišljalo o obrazovanju informacijskih stručnjaka. Taj se interes intenzivirao sredinom osamdesetih godina 20. stoljeća te od tada nije jenjavao već je, štoviše, rastao. Najveći je broj radova objavljen u prvom desetljeću 21. stoljeća. Razloge vjerojatno treba tražiti ne samo u  naglom razvoju informacijsko-komunikacijskih tehnologija već i u uvođenju Bolonjskog procesa na hrvatska visoka učilišta, čemu su se nastavni kurikulum i obrazovanje informacijskih stručnjaka trebali prilagoditi. Kvalitativna analiza pokazala je da je toj problematici i posvećen najveći broj radova. Više od polovine radova napisano je u koautorstvu dvoje ili više autora, što ukazuje na dobru profesionalnu suradnju hrvatske stručne i znanstvene zajednice koja se bavi problematikom obrazovanja informacijskih stručnjaka. Relativno velik broj radova izloženih na inozemnim skupovima, kao i značajan broj radova na engleskom jeziku, ukazuje na važan doprinos hrvatskih autora razumijevanju ove problematike i na globalnoj razini.         
Originalnost/Vrijednost. Vrijednost rada je u tome što tematska bibliografija ovoga tipa do sada nije postojala. Rad je ujedno poticaj novim generacijama znanstvenika i stručnjaka na daljnje promišljanje o obrazovanju informacijskih stručnjaka i o nužnosti njihova kontinuiranog stručnog usavršavanja i prilagodbe novim informacijsko-komunikacijskim tehnologijama.

Authors: Jakopec Tomislav
Published: January 2021

Cilj: Cilj je ovog rada ustanoviti razvojni put diplomiranih studenata informacijskih znanosti FFOS zaposlenih u IT tvrtkama, utvrditi relevantnost podučavanih znanja i vještina na Dvopredmetnom diplomskom studiju informacijskih tehnologija (DDS IT) definiranih kroz ishode učenja studija kao i ustanoviti razinu njihovog zadovoljstva radnim uvjetima i razvojnim mogućnostima na trenutnim radnim mjestima. Kako bi postigli ove ciljeve prvo se daje analiza znanja i vještina definiranih kroz ishode učenja na DDS IT. Slijede intervjui s diplomiranim studentima koji su nakon studija svoju poslovnu karijeru započeli u IT tvrtkama. Analizirati će se njihov razvojni put i dati zaključci o ključnim indikatorima uspješnosti zaposlenja u IT tvrtkama nakon završetka studija.
Metodologija: Analiza sadržaja DDS IT u kontekstu ishoda učenja obveznih kolegija, nazivlja izbornih kolegija  te područja projektnih radova i polustrukturirani intervju s diplomiranim studentima informacijskih znanosti koji rade u IT tvrtkama.
Rezultati: Iskazi ispitanika mogu se sumirati kao uspješne priče mladih ljudi koji su svoju sreću pronašli u području informacijskih tehnologija. Sve ispitanike, iako se kroz tekst transkripta ne može formalno iščitati, krasi ljubav prema onome što rade, predanost poslu, želja za kontinuiranim usavršavanjem i istinska zainteresiranost područjem u kojem djeluju.
Originalnost: Uspješan razvojni put svih budućih studenata kako informacijskih tehnologija, tako i ostalih područja informacijskih znanosti može se iščitati iz rezultata provedenog istraživanja, poglavito u odgovorima ispitanika u dubinskom intervjuu. Na novim je generacijama da uče s ramena ispitanika te prigrle pristup i iskustvo prethodnika te na isti način definiraju vlastiti (uspješan) razvojni put diplomiranih studenata informacijskih znanosti zaposlenih u IT tvrtkama.
Pitanje opstanka tradicionalnih papirnih izvora informacija u suvremenim knjižnicama: osvrt na istraživanja provedena u visokoškolskim knjižnicama
Authors: Antulov Zorica , Burčul Kristian
Published: January 2021

Cilj. Cilj rada je dobiti uvid u interes suvremenih studenata, korisnika visokoškolskih knjižnica  (specijalnih knjižnica usmjerenih na znanost i znanje) za njihove tradicionalne tiskane izvore.
Metoda. Na temelju pregleda rezultata većeg broja istraživanja provedenih u proteklom desetljeću u Hrvatskoj i svijetu, kao i na temelju razmatranja stavova uglednih znanstvenika o ovoj temi, nastoji se dobiti uvid u dosadašnji interes studenata za tiskane izvore (izvore koji u vremenu „eksplozije informacija“ ne donose brze informacije). Osobito je važno pritom uočiti eventualne promjene koje se po tom pitanju događaju tijekom vremena. Sintezom promatranih i analiziranih rezultata i stavova nastoji se sagledati moguća slika dogledne budućnosti ovih izvora.
Rezultati. Premda spadaju u vrstu korisnika za koje bi se očekivalo kako će pokazivati veći interes prema internetskim izvorima informacija, interes za tiskane izvore informacija među studentima je još uvijek vrlo visok. Istraživanja pokazuju kako se interes za određene e-izvore (uglavnom časopise i baze podataka) s vremenom povećao, no kako je pritom tiskana knjiga studentima ostala preferirani informacijski izvor. Studenti i dalje radije uče iz tiskanih udžbenika, a uz slabu dostupnost i nedostatno poznavanje, nemogućnost se dubinskog učenja iz e-udžbenika ističe kao jedan od glavnih razloga tome. Iako se, barem kada je riječ o tiskanoj knjizi, može zaključiti kako se ne radi o izvoru kojem prijeti skori nestanak, određeni pokazatelji uočeni kroz rezultate pregledanih istraživanja, ukazuju kako bi veća prilagodba na e-izvore i poboljšanje tehnologije, mogli u budućnosti dovesti do određenih promjena u stavovima studenata koje bi se kretale u korist e-izvora.
Originalnost. Promatranje interesa knjižničnih korisnika za knjižnične izvore informacija iznimno je bitno za budućnost suvremenih knjižnica. Svako provedeno istraživanje, kao i pregled: analiza i sinteza rezultata i saznanja o ovoj temi, stoga ima određenu vrijednost. Knjižnice moraju biti spremne prilagoditi se zahtjevima svog doba, ali i zahtjevima svojih korisnika, jer upravo o njima i njihovom interesu ovisi i budućnost samih knjižnica.

INFLUENCE OF METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS ON ECONOMICALLY VALUABLE SOYBEAN TRAITS
Authors: Gureeva Е. V.
Published: January 2021

The results of research conducted in 2015-2019 in the forest-steppe agroclimatic zone to identify the dependence of economically valuable traits of soybean varieties on the meteorological conditions of the Ryazan region are presented. The soil of the experimental site is dark gray forest, heavy loamy in granulometric composition. Reaction of the soil solution-phsol. - 5,2; humus content 5,8 %. Mobile phosphorus content – 191.4 mg / kg of soil; exchange potassium content-108.5 mg / kg of soil; nitrate nitrogen-8.4 mg / kg; ammonium nitrogen-1.57 mg/kg. The object of the research were varieties of soybean breeding, FEDERAL state scientific institution "Ryazan research Institute of agriculture" - Mahewa, George, Whale, Light. The work was carried out in accordance with the methodology of the State variety testing of agricultural crops and the methodology of field experience. To characterize the climatic conditions, we used an integrated indicator – Selyaninov's hydrothermal coefficient (GTC). It was found that the duration of the growing season of early — maturing varieties depends more on the weather conditions in july, early-maturing varieties-on the conditions in august. The height of the plant is affected by weather conditions in june, and the weight of 1000 seeds – in july. The yield of soybeans largely depends on the climatic conditions during the main stages of development of the crop. The average yield over the years of the study for varieties was in the range from 1.37 to 1.79 t/ha. The highest yield was recorded in 2015 and 2016 with the GTC close to 1, the lowest yield for varieties was obtained in 2018 with the GTC=0.6. A significant relationship was found between seed yield, seed weight from the plant and the GTC of the growing season: the variation in soybean seed yield by 67% is associated with the action of the studied factors (R2=0.67).
ASSESSMENT OF THE BIOMASS OF SPRING WHEAT SOWING

Published: January 2021

The use of Earth remote sensing data (ERS) is a key information technology in modern crop production, as it allows you to assess the parameters of the state of crops of crops, the number of which can reach up to ten. Based on such assessments, managerial decisions are made aimed at obtaining specified final results. It is impossible to assess these parameters by the currently widely used vegetation indices, due to their scalar shape and dimensionless size. The paper develops a classical approach to the problem of assessing the parameters of the state of crops of crops, in which remote sensing data are considered as an indirect measurement of the estimated parameters. The difference of this article from previous works of a similar orientation is that crops with a more complex morphological structure are considered as an object of evaluation, which inevitably leads to a complication of the estimation algorithm. In addition, such an important feature of agricultural objects as their spatial distribution is considered here. To take it into account, a new kind of mathematical models is used in which spatial coordinates are introduced. Due to the significant complication of modeling and estimation algorithms based on such models, approximation schemes that are simpler in terms of software implementation are proposed. The basis of such schemes is the basic estimation algorithms, by which first estimates are formed for 20-30 elementary sowing areas, using which spatial variations of the estimates and reflection parameters are used on the used channels of the remote sensing system, and then linear spatial corrector parameters are constructed from these variations.

Published: January 2021

The results of the study of the resistance to rust (Gymnosporangium sabinae (Dicks.) G. Winter) of pear cultivars, forms and intergeneric hybrids with different genetic origin as well as economical and biological characteristics of identified absolutely resistant genotypes are given. The studies were carried out in 2012-2020 in the pear collection orchard with the aim of to reveal genetic donors and sources of absolute resistance to rust for the further use in breeding programs. The work was carried out in accordance with the Program and Methods of Fruit, Berry and Nut Crop Breeding  and Program and Methods of Fruit, Berry and Nut Crop Variety Investigation. Four intergeneric hybrids (Malopyrus № 1, Pyromalus № 818, Sorbopyrus auricularis, Sorbopyrus Kuryanovii); 114 pear genotypes of different genetic origin including pear cultivars and forms of Pyrus communis L., Pyrus pyrifolia (Burm) Nakai, Pyrus ussuriensis Maxim.; cultivars that are interspecific hybrids of Pyrus communis and Pyrus ussuriensis; Pyrus salicifolia Pall. and Pyrus calleryana Decne. as well as 2800 hybrid seedlings were used as objects for the research. As a result it was determined that all cultivars and hybrid seedlings used in the work regardless of their genetic origin were susceptible to pear rust: cultivars and forms derived from Pyrus communis, Pyrus ussuriensis, Pyrus pyrifolia and interspecific hybrids within the Pyrus L. genus. Intergeneric hybrids of pear with apple, apple with pear, pear with mountain ash and pear with whitebeam showed absolute resistance to the pathogen. Four intergeneric hybrids Malopyrus № 1, Pyromalus № 818, Sorbopyrus auricularis, Sorbopyrus Kuryanovii were allocated as sources for future use in breeding for high resistance to pear rust.

Based on multi-location tests with different edaphic and climatic conditions and process approaches to the cultivation of field crops (Oryol, Samara, Nizhny Novgorod, Voronezh), the article dwells on the algorithm of a systemic approach to studying the individual characteristics of 17 varieties and samples of winter wheat, and shows the principles of their selection to form a single system for the purpose of stabilising the production of high-quality grain. Ecological approaches to the assessment of individual characteristics of different wheat varieties allowed identifying bottleneck issues related to the implementation of their adaptive potential, behaviour in the single system of agrobiogeocenosis, specifying the influence of the genotype–environment interaction on the manifestation of individual characteristics. The understanding of these issues makes it possible to develop a process sequence beneficial for the formation of genotypes with high productivity. Following the analysis, the breeds Leonida, Grom and Nemchinovskaya 85 wheat varieties were identified as promising for production in Central Russia. They showed high productivity and proved to be close in terms of sensitivity to growing conditions. In addition, a new wheat variety, Nemchinovskaya 85, demonstrated high quality of grain product. Izumrud Dubovitskogo and DF2020 varieties were distinguished by a high level of adaptive properties, expressed as their superiority in severe conditions of the Volga region and regions with a low level of soil moisture during grain filling. The study also suggests high processability and narrow limits of ecosystem boundaries when using Stork and Sineva wheat varieties in production, which most fully implemented their potential only in the system of intensive cultivation technologies with moderate to increased soil-moisture regimen in the second half of the vegetation season.

Authors: Buskila Yaffa , Chen-Levi Tamar
Published: January 2021

This study aims to explore teachers’ perceptions of the role played by school principals in promoting teachers' well-being. The teachers in Israel have a low professional self-image and work under stressful conditions. Psychological well-being combines a good feeling with effective functioning and promoting well-being can enhance efficacy at work. This is a qualitative study, with a personal interpretive paradigm of teachers' reflections. Data was collected from 53 teachers and analyzed in a four-stage process: condensing, coding, categorizing, and theorizing. The study was based on the planned theory (Ajzen & Fishbein, 1980), and the data was encoded and categorized according to the Goleman, Boyatzis and McKee (2004) emotional intelligence (EI), leadership competence which founds to enhance well-being and effectiveness at work. Findings indicate that school principals can play an important role in promoting teachers’ well-being by displaying relationship management, which generates the highest level of EI: Creating a positive emotional climate, keeping relationships on the right track, and demonstrating genuine concern for teachers. Understanding the importance of EI and mastering it by educational leaders is important for promoting well-being. It is significant for the positive functioning of the teachers and school system. This study contributes to the epistemology of promoting teachers' well-being and developing EI by educational leader. Keywords: School principals, teachers’ well-being, emotional intelligence

Published: January 2021

Coronary anomalies are rare congenital malformations that are associated with an increased risk of arrhythmias, ischemic events and sudden death. Many remain asymptomatic throughout the patient’s life, and are diagnosed incidentally by imaging tests. The treatment is necessary when ischemia is confirmed or in the presence of symptoms, and surgical intervention is the method of choice. However, some studies allow percutaneous treatment to be used as an alternative, especially in anomalies of the right coronary artery. In view of this, the objective of this study was to report three cases of congenital malformation of the right coronary artery treated by percutaneous coronary intervention.

Published: January 2021

A Igreja de Nossa Senhora dos Prazeres e sua Casa paroquial, localizadas em Maranguape II, no litoral Pernambucano, foram construídas, possivelmente, em 1656. Esta pesquisa teve como premissa básica identificar os fatores determinantes para a construção desses dois prédios em um território afastado da Vila de Olinda. Assim, a partir do ponto de vista quantitativo – através das composições mineralógicas dos tijolos cerâmicos, das rochas de cantaria e dos rejuntes – e qualitativo –através das paginações das alvenarias e da planta baixa –, chegou-se à identificação de três possíveis fases construtivas. O desafio maior foi associar os dados do levantamento físico e das fases construtivas aos contextos históricos e assim entender porque, em um período de instabilidade política, essas edificações  foram construídas em uma área afastada do centro da antiga Vila de Olinda e quais as justificativas das ampliações e alterações nas técnicas construtivas e nas plantas baixas.

Introduction: Fathers’ knowledge, attitude, and involvement in breastfeeding practices are crucial factors to determine the success of breastfeeding outcomes such as decision-making on breastfeeding, successfulness of exclusive breastfeeding, and continuation of breastfeeding practices. This study aimed to identify the determinants of fathers’ involvement in breastfeeding practices. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 203 fathers attending Maternal and Child Health Clinics in Kuala Selangor. Self-administered questionnaires were used to obtain information regarding fathers’ sociodemography, breastfeeding knowledge, attitudes, and involvement towards breastfeeding practices. Results: Mean age of the fathers was 32.1±5.9 years, ranging between 21 to 50 years. Findings showed that majority of the fathers were involved in breastfeeding practices (52.7%; n=107, 57.0±6.2), had fair knowledge in breastfeeding (62.6%; n=127, 13.8±3.2), and showed low attitude towards breastfeeding (68.0%; n=138, 61.9±6.7). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed factors with significant influence on fathers’ involvement towards breastfeeding practices were: (1) fathers’ breastfeeding knowledge, (2) fathers’ attitudes towards breastfeeding practices, and (3) mode of infant delivery. Conclusion: These significant predictors may help healthcare professionals to establish effective strategies by advocating the role of fathers in the breastfeeding process such as by offering continuous support, active involvement, and effective participation.

Background: Subclinical hypothyroidism is represented by high serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and normal serum free T4 and T3, Recent studies on subclinical hypothyroidism and lipid profile indicates that the serum total cholesterol, LDL-C, and total triglycerides were significantly increased. Clinical evidence suggests that thyroid replacement therapy with levothyroxine has beneficial effect.

Methods: It is a hospital based prospective observational study involving 122 patients based on non probability sampling conducted in the Department of Internal Medicine. The study involved patients who have been diagnosed with subclinical hypothyroidism with normal level of free T4, T3 and elevated levels of TSH with positive Thyroperoxidase (TPO) antibodies. Patients were advised to investigate lipid profile before and after prescribing levothyroxine. Follow up was done after 6-9 wks.

Results: In this study 122 patients diagnosed with Subclinical hypothyroidism were prescribed with levothyroxine in which 112 came for follow up. The mean age of the patient was 46.81. There was significant reduction in mean TSH from 12.09 (±1.89)mIU/L to 7.97(±1.59)mIU/L,TC from 217.12( ±20.87)mg/dl to 198.47( ±17.34)mg/dl and LDL from 137.16(±14.57)mg/dl to 124.62( ±12.89)mg/dl was found along with significant reduction in VLDL was found after levothyroxine therapy, There was slight reduction in serum triglyceride was found with no significant alteration in HDL and BMI levels.

Conclusion: The study showed significant reduction in the lipid profile including TC, LDL and VLDL after levothyroxine therapy. There was significant reduction in the level of TSH was also found whereas the level of free T4 and T3 were not much altered. There was no significant change found in the level of HDL and BMI.

INTRODUCTION

Infant and child health status depends upon knowledge of mothers regarding health promotional measures. This study aimed to determine knowledge and its associated factors regarding health promotional measures of infants amongst the mothers attending pediatrics outpatient department of Universal College of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital, Bhairahawa, Rupandehi, Nepal.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

Hospital based cross-sectional study was conducted in Universal College of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital, Bhairahawa, Rupandehi, Nepal among 414 mothers attending pediatrics outpatient department from June 2019 to March 2020. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to explore associations between different factors with health promotional measures.

RESULTS

The mean age and family size was 25.89 ±4.81 and 5.94 ±2.48 respectively. A total of 73.2% mothers have good knowledge of health promotional measures. Mothers greater than 20 years (AOR =8.13, CI: 2.16-30.67), Dalit (AOR=0.02, CI: 0.003-0.16), living in rural area (AOR=0.27, CI: 0.08-0.61), family size greater than 5 (AOR =3.99, CI: 1.37-11.59), below SLC education (AOR=0.29, CI: (0.09-0.88) and fathers with SLC and above education (AOR=25.40, CI: 4.54-142.0), fathers engaged in non-agricultural work (AOR =4.78, CI: 1.80-12.68) and birth space of index child greater than two years (AOR =5.88, CI: 1.48-23.55) were significantly associated with knowledge of health promotional measures.

CONCLUSIONS

Mothers’ age, caste, residence, family size, education of parents, occupation of father and birth space of index child were found to be independent associated factors of knowledge. Thus policy makers should provide specific education regarding health promotional measures to both parents focusing rural area. Similarly, local Government needs to subsidize in reducing teenage marriage.
Simulation in Nursing Education: Review of Research

Published: January 2021

INTRODUCTION

Nursing education consists of the theoretical and practical training provided to nurses with the purpose to prepare them for their duties as nursing care professionals. The scope of nursing practice reflects all the role and responsibilities undertaken by the nurse to address the full range of human experiences and responses to health and illness. The instructional strategies utilized in both didactic and clinical components of nursing education courses are highly influential in determining critical thinking and clinical decision making ability as well as in developing the psychomotor skill performance of new graduates. Simulation provides nursing students with opportunities to practice their clinical and decision-making skills through various real-life situational experiences. Although endorsed in nursing curricula, its effectiveness is largely unknown.

Population growth, mechanization, and industrialization have now made humanity the equivalent of other natural processes in its effect on air-pollution levels and associated climatic change. Link turbidity is an important parameter for assessing the air pollution of Kathmandu (Lat.:27.72oN, Long.: 85.32oE and Alt.: 1350 m. above sea level). The Because of the unavailability of spectral measurements, a model has been used to estimate the Linke turbidity factor (TL) from broadband measurements of Global Solar radiation on 2012 by using CMP6 paranometer. The average value of extinction coefficient (K) and Linke turbidity are 0.69 ± 0.03 and 5.53±0.23$ respectively, which can be compared with other sites around the world. Relationship between turbidity co-efficient with meterological parameters (humidity, temperature and water contained) have been investigated further.

यस लेखमा ऐतिहासिक भौतिकवाद के हो; यसले साहित्यलाई कसरी हेर्छ र साहित्यभित्रको अन्तर्वस्तु र रूपको अन्तर्सम्बन्धबारे केकस्तो मान्यता राख्छ भन्ने सैद्धान्तिक पक्षलाई सङ्क्षिप्त रूपमा चिनाइएको छ । प्रकृति, समाज र चिन्तनको समग्र द्वन्द्वात्मक विकासको वैज्ञानिक खोज ऐतिहासिक भौतिकवाद हो भने साहित्यले वर्ग, द्वन्द्व, चेतना रक्रान्तिको मार्गदर्शन गर्दै समाज रूपान्तरणलाई मूल धेय बनाउँछ । त्यसै गरी वस्तु तथा सङ्घटनालाई निर्माण गर्ने तत्त्व तथा प्रक्रियालाई अन्तर्वस्तु र त्यसको प्रस्तुति, तरिका, शैली तथा संरचना रूप हो । यसका आधारमा साहित्यका विभिन्न विधामा रचित सृजनाहरूको विश्लेषण गर्न सकिन्छ । नारायण ढकालले प्रेतकल्पउपन्यास ऐतिहासिक भौतिकवादी चिन्तनलाई आधार बनाई रचना गरेका छन् । यस रचनामापूर्वी काठमाडौँको दुःखपुरमा काशीबाट शास्त्री पढेर फर्किएको आर्यसमाजी विचारबाट प्रभावित बालकृष्ण पात्रले फैलाएको विचार, तर्क र व्यवहारबाट स्थापित पुरातन मान्यता भत्कदै क्रमशः नवीन मूल्यको स्थापना हुन थालेको तथ्यलाई द्वन्द्वात्मक रूपमा चिनाइएको छ ।समाज परिवर्तनको गति चिनाउन यो उपन्यास सफल देखिएको छ । यस लेखमाउक्त रचनामा अन्तर्निहित तत्कालीन शासक वर्गविरुद्ध शोषित निम्न वर्गमा पलाएको शूक्ष्म जागरणका झिल्का र अन्तर्विरोधका स्वरहरूलाई ऐतिहासिक भौतिकवादी कोणबाट चिनाउन खोजिएको छ ।
Dynamika ustępowania zaburzeń afatycznych u chorego po udarze mózgu
Authors: Bigos Kamila
Published: January 2021

Do najczęstszych jednostek chorobowych powodujących trudności językowe o typie afazji należą choroby naczyniowe mózgu, a wśród nich udary niedokrwienne. Zaburzenia mowy wynikające z uszkodzeń mózgu mają zazwyczaj charakter dynamiczny. Duży wpływ na obraz kliniczny, a dalej – skuteczną diagnozę i terapię logopedyczną pacjenta po przebytym incydencie neurologicznym, mają zatem okoliczności, w jakich znalazł się chory, a także czynnik czasu. W artykule przedstawiono dynamikę ustępowania zaburzeń afatycznych u chorego po udarze niedokrwiennym w obrębie lewej półkuli mózgu. Celem jest zwrócenie uwagi na zmiany w obrazie zaburzeń u 63-letniego mężczyzny po przebytym incydencie neurologicznym, u którego zdiagnozowano afazję semantyczną. Stwierdzono różnice w występowaniu objawów (w tym zaburzeń afatycznych) u pacjenta bezpośrednio po udarze oraz po kilkunastu miesiącach od zachorowania, po intensywnej terapii logopedycznej.
Miejsce zwykłego pobytu dziecka — uwagi na tle wyroków Trybunału Sprawiedliwości Unii Europejskiej z dnia 28 czerwca 2018 r. (C-512/17) oraz z dnia 17 października 2018 r. (C-393/18 PPU)

In cases C-512/17 and C-393/18 PPU, the national courts raised doubts as to the significance of the circumstances that should be taken into account in determining the habitual residence of a child. In particular the issue was whether the child’s physical presence is a prerequisite in order to recognize that a child has his habitual residencein the country concerned. In its judgment of 17 October 2018, the Court of Justice found that a child must be physically present in a Member State in order to be regarded as habitually resident in that Member State. The parent’s intention cannot be assigned a decisive role. The arguments in this respect are consistent with the interpretation of the concept of habitual residence laid out in the earlier judgment of 28 June 2018, in which the Court of Justice connected the habitual residence of the child with the place where the centre of that child’s life is actually situated, and not with the place where the child would have lived in accordance with the plans of one of the parents. The Court’s interpretation can be attributed to the so-called combined model of determining a habitual residence by looking for child’s centre of interest, taking into account a number of circumstances, including the intention of parents with parental responsibility. Physical presence has rightly been recognized as a necessary condition for establishing jurisdiction under Regulation No 2201/2003 based on habitual residence.
