Authors: Jursa Aleksejs
Published: October 2022

The aim of this article is to investigate the activity of foreign direct investors in Latvia and find out the main source of financing for foreign investors - new investments or reinvested earnings. To achieve the set goal, the methodology of the Sixth Edition of the International Monetary Fund's Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual was used to define the types of foreign direct investment (FDI). This methodology was adapted to Latvian data. At the request of the author, Lursoft IT Ltd selected business data on all registered companies with foreign capital in Latvia since 2005 and aggregate data were used in the analysis. Foreign direct investment in Latvia flows mainly in the form of reinvested earnings, due to the profit earned from operating activities in Latvia. While new investments or greenfield investments in equity is lower compared to the amount of reinvested earnings.

Published: October 2022

As organizations go global by trying to increase revenues or penetrate new markets for expansion, it becomes necessary to have employees who will work overseas. Working overseas as an expatriate requires a lot of effort both from the expatriate and the organization in order for the assignment to be successful. Work-life balance is vital in this regard. Employees will only succeed in the official assignment when their organizations prioritize their well-being, as this will greatly assist them in making sure they are effective and efficient in their work. The goal of this research was to see how work-life balance impacts expatriates’ careers and whether there are any relationships between work-life balance and expatriates’ careers. Results showed work-life balance has a significant positive effect on performance. This is to say that a healthy work-life balance will impact an expatriates’ career greatly, which will also benefit the organization.

The aim of the article is to characterise selected historical issues and the contemporary perception of the response of financial asset prices in the capital market. It also attempts to partially analyse the most important reasons for the current level of effectiveness of the Warsaw Stock Exchange. This is significantly related to the widespread interest of investors in the functioning of capital markets, especially stock exchanges. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the mechanisms shaping share prices. The presentations of the following key theories may prove helpful in this respect: Efficient market hypotheses, the concept of a coherent market, and hypotheses of adaptation markets. The efficiency of the capital market, especially the stock exchange market, can be understood in various ways, although most often in economic research, this concept is equated with information efficiency. Importantly, care for an efficient capital market is crucial from the point of view of economic development based on innovations, which are largely financed by this market. The efficiency of the capital market is one of the most discussed topics among practitioners because it has very serious consequences for investors. The article presents the latest regulations that are to have a positive impact on the development of the capital market in Poland and in the European Union, as well as historical content in the scope of the above-mentioned effective market hypothesis, the concept of a coherent market and the hypothesis of adaptation markets. The author has also attempted to characterise contemporary conditions that affect or are to affect the development of the domestic capital market in the near future.

Authors: Satvaldieva Elmira , Kuralov Eldor Turgun ugli
Published: October 2022

The aim of the study. To improve the quality of perioperative analgesia by combined multimodal use of paracetamol and ketorolac tromethamine in children after abdominal surgery.

Materials and methods. 48 children (6-17 years old) with choledochal, pancreatic cysts, hepatic echinococcosis, and abdominal trauma. The study period was from January 2021 to January 2022. Group 1 (main group, n=28): baseline analgesia - 15 min before surgery, intravenous paracetamol administration at 25-30 mg/kg. In order to prevent postoperative pain syndrome 15 minutes before the end of the surgery, we administered ketorolac and tromethamine in a dose of 0.5 mg/kg. Pain relief was repeated 6-8 h later with ketorolac at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg. Group 2 (comparison, n=20), who received 0.2 – 0.3 mg/kg promedol (trimeperidin) in the postoperative period. Both groups received standard endotracheal anaesthesia (propofol + fentanyl + arduan against the background of Low-flow anaesthesia with sevoflurane MAK=1). Systemic haemodynamics, C-reactive protein, and glucose were investigated, and a visual analogue scale was applied at the main stages of the study.

Results: Analysis of the parameters of central hemodynamics, parameters of the operational stress response and clinical data showed that in the postoperative period, sufficient analgesic effect was established only in children in group 1 with the preventive combined administration of paracetamol and ketorolac on the operating table, which allows recommending them in the practice of perioperative analgesia during abdominal surgical interventions.

Conclusions. Optimised method of preventive (preoperative) use of paracetamol in children at a dose of 25-30 mg/kg during abdominal surgery followed by administration of ketorolac tromethamine (15 minutes before the end of the surgery) increases the degree of nociceptive protection. It ensures high efficiency of postoperative pain relief, which allows to recommend it in the practice of perioperative analgesia for the above abdominal surgical interventions in children
Evaluation of the efficacy of paravertebral blockade as a component of combined anesthesia in the surgical treatment of pulmonary cancer
Authors: Suprun Andrey , Lysenko Victor
Published: October 2022

The aim. The paper evaluates the effectiveness of implemented combined anaesthesia (inhalation with paravertebral blockade) in comparison with inhalation anaesthesia (IA) and total intravenous anaesthesia (TVA) at the stages of surgery and the early postoperative period in the surgical treatment of cancer lungs.

Methods. The study involved 60 patients with an average age of 55±5.6 years, physical status ASA II–III, who underwent open surgical interventions in the scope of frontal or pneumonectomy or resection of part of the lung. Patients were divided into 3 groups depending on the method of anaesthetic support at the stage of anaesthesia maintenance: I (n=20) – combined anaesthesia was used; II (n=20) – IA with sevoflurane; III (n=20) – TVA. In addition, the leading indicators of central hemodynamics were studied; oxygen saturation (SaO2), CO2 ET (concentration of CO2 in exhaled air), cortisol level, and indicators of acid-base status were determined. The effectiveness of analgesia in the early postoperative period was assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS) at 10 control stages. Fasting intensity was recorded after waking up, after extubation, after 1 h. after surgery, on the first day after surgery every 3 h. and once a day from the 2nd day for 5-6 days.

Results. The studied clinical and laboratory indicators indicated an adequate course of the applied type of anaesthesia. In the dynamics of pain syndrome (PS) in the postoperative period, a gradual subjective increase of pain syndrome was noted until the 3rd day, including a decrease in pain on the 4th - 6th day. It was established that when using combined anaesthesia, a less significant level of PS, according to VAS, was noted compared to inhalation anaesthesia and the use of TVA.

Conclusions. Combined anaesthesia (inhalation with PVB) can more effectively prevent the development of post-thoracotomy pain syndrome (PTPS) compared to TVA and IA in the surgical treatment of lung cancer
Forensic classification of battle axes
Authors: Nikitiuk Vitalii , Yaroshenko Ihor
Published: October 2022

The essence of the definition of "battle axe" has been investigated. It is determined, that it is an axe, intended for use as a cutting, chopping-stabbing, chopping-slicing and chopping-stabbing-cutting cold weapon, and consists of an iron (percussive part with a blade) and a hatchet (handle). The history of the development of battle axes - from stone to modern ones - has been studied. The material for making axes has been determined - stone, metal and other materials. For foot soldiers, a battle ax was often the main weapon, for horsemen - an auxiliary one. Battle axes were used mainly for close combat. Some types of axes were used for throwing. Axes were also widely used as ceremonial weapons. The battle ax has spread all over the world, different modifications of it have appeared in different regions. The reasons for the spread of the battle ax were the relative cheapness compared to the sword and the personal preferences of the owner. The purpose of the study was the formation of a forensic battle axes classification. The materials of the research were literary sources, scientific works and expert conclusions on the studied issues. On the basis of the conducted research, a forensic classification of battle axes is proposed.

The main characteristics of battle axes include their type; method of action; application method; iron manufacturing technology; number of blades; blade shape; blade width; the presence of additional striking elements; iron material; the shape (cross-section) of the eyelet; the method of attaching the iron to the ax; ax length; ax shape; ax material; the way of holding (grasping) the ax; availability of additional accessories, tuning; the method of making an ax; time of manufacture; construction decoration
Features of simplified proceedings regarding criminal offenses in the court of first instance
Authors: Oboronova Iryna
Published: October 2022

Summary court proceedings regarding criminal misdemeanors are a differentiated type of court proceedings in the court of first instance. Three forms of simplification of court proceedings regarding criminal misdemeanors are singled out, in particular: 1) with accelerated holding a trial in a court session; 2) without holding a trial in a court session; 3) with holding a trial without examining the evidence regarding those circumstances that are not contested by anyone. The list of documents, the presence of which is a prerequisite for the consideration of the indictment by the court in the order of summary court proceedings, has been determined. The author states that a summary court proceeding without a trial in a court session limits the right to a fair trial, provided for by the Convention on the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. It has been established, that the features of summary court proceedings regarding criminal offenses are: 1) procedural speed; 2) simplification of the procedural form; 3) greater efficiency compared to the "usual" form of court proceedings; 4) changed structure of the proof process; 5) modification (restriction) of certain principles of criminal proceedings. The definition of summary court proceedings for criminal misdemeanors is proposed. The grounds for conducting court proceedings in a simplified manner have been determined, in particular: 1) legal material ground (qualification of the accused's act as a criminal misdemeanor); 2) procedural grounds: a) the presence of the accused's consent to this procedure for consideration of the indictment; b) undisputed recognition by the accused of his/her guilt in committing the incriminated misdemeanor; c) recognition (non-dispute) by the accused of the circumstances of the proceedings, established during the investigation; d) the presence of the prosecutor's initiative (petition) to consider the indictment in a simplified manner

Authors: Panasenko Inna
Published: October 2022

The object of the study is the condition of the education system in Ukraine and directions of its development. One of the problematic points is the fact that the outdated principles of the functioning of the education sphere and the mechanisms of its management call for the formation of a new system. Education services are a type of social goods, the provision of which is guaranteed by the state. However, outdated management approaches the lack of economic levers of development in the functioning of educational institutions, the quality of acquired educational skills – all this requires the introduction of new directions of development and the application of new management models in practice, and not just declaring them on paper.
In the course of the research, the following scientific methods are used, such as a comparative analysis of scientific literature and information sources based on comparative methods to highlight the problem. Methods of systematization and grouping for finding ways to solve the problem. As well as methods of summarizing the results of the analysis and logically forming conclusions when formulating the components of the development of the sphere of education in Ukraine.
The article analyzes the problems of the modern sphere of education in Ukraine. As the main departments: instability of the financial condition of educational institutions; complications of introducing their autonomy in practice; reduction of state funding, etc. Quantitative analysis of state expenditures on education financing is provided. The need for systemic reform of the educational funding model to ensure transparency and efficiency with the simultaneous implementation of a differentiated approach based on quality indicators is substantiated. An analysis of the implementation of public-private partnership schemes in the field of education, as one of the methods of effective financing and training of specialists, who are needed in the modern market, was performed. There is a well-founded need to create an audit system of knowledge and skills acquired by pupils, students or trainees, as the main indicator of the correspondence between the directions of training of applicants and the needs of the labor market. The vectors of transformations and further development of the educations’ sphere are outlined.

Context. The problem of synthesizing pulsed neural networks based on an evolutionary approach to the synthesis of artificial neural networks using a neuropathic mechanism for constructing diagnostic models with a high level of accuracy is considered. The object of research is the process of synthesis of pulsed neural networks using an evolutionary approach and a neuropathic mechanism.

Objective of the work is to develop a method for synthesizing pulsed neural networks based on an evolutionary approach using a neuropathic mechanism to build diagnostic models with a high level of accuracy of work.

Method. A method for synthesizing pulsed neural networks based on an evolutionary approach is proposed. At the beginning, a population of pulsed neural networks is generated, and a neuropathic mechanism is used for their encoding and further development, which consists in separate encoding of neurons with different activation functions that are determined beforehand. So each pattern with multiple entry points can define the relationship between a pair of points. In the future, this simplifies the evolutionary development of networks. To decipher a pulsed neural network from a pattern, the coordinates for a pair of neurons are passed to the network that creates the pattern. The network output determines the weight and delay of the connection between two neurons in a pulsed neural network. After that, you can evaluate each neuromodel after evolutionary changes and check the criteria for stopping synthesis. This method allows you to reduce the resource intensity during network synthesis by abstracting the evolutionary changes of the network pattern from itself.

Results. The developed method is implemented and investigated on the example of the synthesis of a pulsed neural network for use as a model for technical diagnostics. Using the developed method to increase the accuracy of the neuromodel with a test sample by 20%, depending on the computing resources used.

Conclusions. The conducted experiments confirmed the operability of the proposed mathematical software and allow us to recommend it for use in practice in the synthesis of pulsed neural networks as the basis of diagnostic models for further automation of tasks of diagnostics, forecasting, evaluation and pattern recognition using big data. Prospects for further research may lie in the use of a neuropathic mechanism for indirect encoding of pulsed neural networks, which will provide even more compact data storage and speed up the synthesis process.
INVESTIGATION OF COMPETITIVE ADSORPTION AND DIFFUSION BEHAVIORS OF CO2/CH4/N2/H2O AFFECTED BY COAL RANKS IN SLIT STRUCTURES
Authors: Shi Yu , Yang Xiaona , Xue Junhua , Zhao Pengxiang , Liu Jikun , Wei Zongyong
Published: October 2022

In this work, different slit structures of coals (brown coal, bituminous coal, and anthracite coal) with various ranks are established at a molecular level. Based on the grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) and molecular dynamics (MD) methods, the effects of coal rank on CO2, CH4, N2 and H2O multi-component gases adsorption and diffusion in slit structures are investigated. The influence of coal rank on the swelling ratio caused by adsorption and diffusion in different slit structures is discussed for the first time. It is shown that the adsorption capacity of CO2, CH4, N2 and H2O in different slit structures follows the order of H2O > CO2 > CH4 > N2, whereas the diffusion coefficient follows H2O < CO2 < CH4 < N2. With the growth of coal rank, the adsorption capacity and diffusion coefficients of CO2, CH4, N2 and H2O increase, meanwhile, the adsorption selectivity coefficients of CH4/CO2, N2/CH4, and CO2/H2O rise, following the order of anthracite coal > bituminous coal > brown coal. In addition, both the adsorption and diffusion swelling ratio reduce with the decrease of coal rank. The present molecular investigation of competitive adsorption and diffusion characteristics of multi-component gases can provide theoretical basis for efficient exploitation of coalbed methane.
Briefing: The role of the Technology and Construction Court in alternative dispute resolution
Authors: Agapiou Andrew
Published: October 2022

The construction industry is highly litigious, and disputes can be costly, not merely in a financial sense but also in terms of the breakdown of otherwise valuable relationships due to the conflict. While arbitration and adjudication are commonly used in the construction sphere as dispute resolution tools, the adversarial nature of such processes may hold deleterious consequences for parties in terms of financial costs, delays, risks and loss of business. It was not until the late 1980s that it was realised that conventional litigation for construction disputes was far too cumbersome and expensive. Arbitration was the traditional method for the resolution of construction disputes for many years until the introduction of a range of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) techniques, adjudication and the introduction of pre-action protocols in litigation. The English courts have also proven eager to embrace ADR during the early stages of litigation proceedings, particularly when litigation costs will exceed the amount in dispute. This briefing examines the role of the Technology and Construction Court in ADR.

Significance Statement

Standard blood markers of kidney function undergo renal clearance and are thus inversely correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Recent work has shown that blood levels of the podocyte-derived protein testican-2 are positively correlated with eGFR among individuals with relatively normal kidney function. The current study considers blood testican-2 levels among three cohorts of >8,000 individuals in total, including many with established kidney disease. Testican-2 levels are positively correlated with eGFR across the full range of kidney health, with higher levels associated with lower risk of incident end stage kidney disease (ESKD), even after adjusting for baseline eGFR, proteinuria, and other kidney disease risk factors. This study highlights a positive association between testican-2 and kidney health and prognosis.

Background

Testican-2 was recently identified as a podocyte-derived protein that is released into circulation by the kidneys and is positively correlated with eGFR and eGFR slope. However, whether higher testican-2 levels are associated with lower risk of ESKD is unknown.

Methods

Aptamer-based proteomics assessed blood testican-2 levels among participants in the African American Study of Kidney Disease and Hypertension (AASK, n=703), the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) study (n=3196), and the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study (n=4378). We compared baseline characteristics by testican-2 tertile and used Cox proportional hazards models to study the association of testican-2 with incident ESKD.

Results

Higher testican-2 levels were associated with higher measured GFR (mGFR) in AASK, higher eGFR in the CRIC and ARIC studies, and lower albuminuria in all cohorts. Baseline testican-2 levels were significantly associated with incident ESKD in Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for age, sex, and race (model 1) and model 1+mGFR or eGFR+comorbidities (model 2). In model 3 (model 2+proteinuria), the associations between testican-2 (per SD increase) and incident ESKD were AASK (hazard ratio [HR]=0.84 [0.72 to 0.98], P=0.023), CRIC (HR=0.95 [0.89 to 1.02], P=0.14), ARIC (HR=0.54 [0.36 to 0.83], P=0.0044), and meta-analysis (HR=0.92 [0.86 to 0.98], P=0.0073).

Conclusions

Across three cohorts spanning >8000 individuals, testican-2 is associated with kidney health and prognosis, with higher levels associated with reduced risk of ESKD.
‘Kudüs’ Adlı İki Şiirin Mukayesesi: Nizâr Kabbânî’nin Kaleminden Arapça ‘El-Kuds’ ve Else Lasker-Schüler’in Kaleminden Almanca ‘Jerusalem’
Authors: Ayyıldız Esat
Published: October 2022

Nizâr b. Tevfik Kabbânî, modern Arap edebiyatının en meşhur şairleri arasındadır. Onun Arap edebiyatında böylesi büyük bir tanınırlık kazanmasının nedeni, daha ziyade Filistin’in sorunlarının dile getirilmesi hususunda son derece faal olmasıdır. Özellikle son bir asırdır, Filistin ile bu kutsal toprakların mukaddes kenti Kudüs’ün akıbeti, pek çok ulustan pek çok aydının zihnini meşgul etmektedir. Bu aydınlardan birisi de şiirlerini Almanca nazmeden Else Lasker-Schüler’dir. Tüm semavi dinler için kutsal bir kent olan Kudüs, hem Nizâr Kabbânî’nin hem de Else Lasker-Schüler’in şiirlerinde karşımıza çıkan bir motiftir. Söz konusu şairlere ait iki farklı şiir, aynı adı yani Kudüs ismini taşımaktadır. Nizâr Kabbânî’nin el-Kuds’ü ve Else Lasker-Schüler’in Jerusalem’ı, belirli açılardan birbirine benzemekte, bazı noktalarda da birbirinden ayrılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, biri Arapça diğeri Almanca olan söz konusu iki şiirin mukayeseli bir incelemesinin yapılması amaçlanmaktadır. Kabbânî’nin mezkûr şiiri, bu çalışmada edebî ve sanatsal bir tercümeden ziyade, mukayesenin daha doğru yapılabilmesi için kelimesi kelimesine tercüme edilmiştir. Benzer şekilde, Else Lasker-Schüler’in şiiri de aynı metotla Almancadan Türkçeye tam haliyle kelimesi kelimesine aktarılmıştır. Bu çalışmanın önemi, söz konusu şiirler arasında mukayeseli bir incelemenin yapılacak olmasıdır. Dolayısıyla bu çalışmanın kapsamı yalnızca mezkûr iki şiirin mukayesesiyle sınırlıdır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda bilimsel bir karşılaştırmanın yapılması planlanmaktadır.

Published: October 2022

The purpose of this study is to develop a model of the risk-controlling mechanism of an investment project. The following methods were applied: analysis and synthesis, a systematic approach, as well as modeling methods. The relevance of the study lies in the fact that in conditions of high uncertainty of factors of the external and internal environment, it is necessary to create such a risk management mechanism for investment projects that would allow the following: - adapt as quickly as possible to adverse factors, thereby increasing the degree of compliance of the investment strategy with environmental factors; - to carry out the integration of investment project management functions and the process of its implementation to achieve all the goals; - manage the risks of investment projects using indicators that allow taking into account both the state of the external environment and the state of the enterprise and the internal environment during the implementation of the project; - monitor risks through the values of the relevant indicators (indicators) and make effective management decisions. The paper proposes a model of the risk-controlling mechanism for investment projects, based on taking into account the factors of the external and internal environment and, on this basis, identifying the risks of an investment project. To control the risks of an investment project, it is proposed to compare actual risk assessments with a system of parameters representing a kind of indicators (characterize the investment project, as well as the state of the enterprise and the state of the external environment of the investment project). It is proposed to monitor the risks of an investment project using the method of expert assessments, taking into account the relevant characteristics of indicators: good (the indicator value changes in the best way), satisfactory (compliance with the indicator), etc. The developed mechanism of risk controlling will allow to take into account the factors of uncertainty and risk of the investment project, monitor the identified risks based on the proposed system of risk indicators and ultimately improve the financial results of the project. In addition, the results of the implementation of the risk-controlling model can be used in the formation of investment policy on the main aspects of investment activity.
PARTICIPATION OF BUSINESS STRUCTURES IN INVESTMENT PROJECTS OF THE REGION: THEORETICAL ASPECT
Authors:   Ufa State Petroleum Technological University, Ishmukhametov E.M.
Published: October 2022

This article discusses the issues of the participation of the business sector in the investment activities of the authorities, as well as the theoretical aspect of the interaction of state and business structures. A preliminary analysis of the essence of private management makes it possible to single out an entrepreneurial structure as a key link in the process of investment interaction between the state and business. The study also revealed that economic and non-economic social spheres, as well as state (regional) authorities, have a direct impact on business structures, while the role of the state is decisive. The scale of the authorities' influence on the investment behavior of business figures is formed based on the specific economic interests of state structures. The interests of representatives of the business sector entering into investment interaction with the state are quite diverse and may depend on the scale of entrepreneurial activity, strategic priorities, functional orientation. The central place of business structures in the investment interaction under study is also justified by the fact that in the processes of implementing joint projects, entrepreneurs can be involved in solving problems that are beyond private economic interests. The analysis of the cumulative impact of entrepreneurs on the socio-economic development of territorial entities made it possible to form a definition of the impact of entrepreneurial potential on the socio-economic system within the framework of joint investment activities with the state. An important result of the study was the definition of the concept of «investment interaction between government and business», which in a broader sense involves the process of bilateral influence of authorities and business entities in order to obtain high-quality socio-economic results and at the same time minimize risks, reduce costs (economic, financial, temporary) through joint investment on the terms stipulated by the relevant contracts. In a narrower sense, investment interaction between government and business is the participation of business entities in the implementation of investment projects implemented by public authorities, during which relatively stable economic ties of a production and structural nature are formed between the participants, provided that the state forms a favorable investment climate.

The paper discusses the problems of the labor sector, which have become particularly relevant in the context of a pandemic. Even before the COVID pandemic broke out, hundreds of millions of workers around the world received less than the minimum wage, this phenomenon is quite relevant for many countries. According to a report by the International Labor Organization, more than 4 billion people still do not have any social support. Research areas include the dynamics of digital platforms, firms, labor standards, and global chains. The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed and exacerbated the gap in social protection between high- and low-income countries. Today, experts are talking about a slow and uncertain recovery, as the pandemic continues to have a strong impact on labor markets around the world. In recent years, digital technologies have radically transformed and penetrated into various sectors of the economy, completely shaking the traditional foundations of labor markets. The article provides a dynamic analysis of the digitalization of labor activity, in the context of modern challenges, using the example of online platforms. The presented dynamic model makes it possible to track the evolution of the process of digitalization of the labor market over the past decades. Empirical data indicate profound changes taking place in society, including technology, innovation, demography, the organization of labor and production, work and society, and the formation of the world of work. Various problems and ways to solve them in the labor market, which have been implemented in various countries, regulating new relations in the conditions of digitalization of labor, are noted.

Published: October 2022

The development of the agricultural sector serves to solve vital problems at the national and global level. To increase the pace of innovative development in the agricultural sector, it is necessary first of all to determine the possibilities and priorities for the formation of an economic mechanism for assessing innovative potential and accelerating innovative activity. This situation is determined by the need for an integrated approach to identifying and implementing opportunities to accelerate innovative development in the agricultural sector. The speed of dissemination and implementation of innovations is an important factor determining the pace and proportions of development at the level of the national economy, industry and enterprise. The pace of innovative development in the agricultural sector is determined by the environment, which is formed under the influence of many factors. It is necessary to justify the priorities for the formation of an appropriate economic mechanism in order to create a more favorable environment for accelerating innovation. It should be borne in mind that the specificity of agriculture is reflected in the speed of distribution and development of product and process innovations. Limiting the rate of biological processes due to natural factors affects the pace of innovative development of the industry. These and other issues require new approaches to the priorities of the formation of an economic mechanism for accelerating innovation in the agricultural sector. Justification of the priorities for the formation of an economic mechanism for accelerating innovation is one of the topical issues in terms of achieving optimal rates and proportions of innovative development of agricultural production and increasing the competitiveness of products. The article outlines the necessary changes in the process of forming an adequate economic mechanism for accelerating innovation in the agricultural sector, including the financial and tax system, depreciation policy, competition and the system of commercialization of scientific ideas. The factors that determine the speed of innovation activity in the industry were characterized, and the attitude to the sphere of their influence was expressed. Then, the possibilities of forming an economic mechanism for accelerating innovation in the agricultural sector were assessed, and priorities were identified

Generation Z is the first generation of the information/digital society formation stage that has specific features in the cognitive field. Representatives of Generation Z experience certain difficulties in interacting with older generations both during their studies and during adaptation in production teams. Traditional socialization tools in educational and scientific sphere have low efficiency, since Generation Z representatives have higher skills and competencies in the field of digital technologies, and therefore they master new technologies faster. At the same time, they have a different motivation to work and different priorities in comparison to older generations. On the one hand, this makes it difficult for representatives of generation Z to adapt to the teams of structural divisions of companies where there is an established structure of communications and at the same time, companies need new employees, because the quantity of specialists from generation Z will be grew. The purpose of this study is to identify the specific features of the generation and create a technology that allows optimizing the work of Generation Z representatives in a team based on interaction and cooperation. The authors identify the problem and at the same time offer a solution in the form of digital technology. The technology proposed by the authors, based on which a digital service for predicting effective teams based on artificial intelligence will be developed, will allow timely identification of the shortcomings of emotional capital and purposefully develop various types of individual soft skills to reduce the effectiveness of teamwork. Thus, the adaptation of representatives of generation Z will be carried out with greater efficiency, and the risk of intergenerational conflicts will be significantly reduced. This approach can be presented as a new one, providing for the mutual adaptation of older generations with an established structure of communications and generation Z, who have unique competencies in the field of digital technologies.

Introducción: el ultrasonido junto a la cama del paciente (PoCUS) es una herramienta clínica que se emplea en los servicios de urgencias desde hace tres décadas. Sin embargo, actualmente persisten interrogantes relacionados con los riesgos de error diagnóstico por parte del médico no radiólogo y la certificación de competencias para su incorporación.
Objetivo: describir y analizar el marco conceptual sobre el uso de PoCUS en las especialidades medicoquirúrgicas en Colombia.
Resultados: la implementación del PoCUS mejora la sensibilidad de la exploración física en el contexto oportuno y orienta la formación médica en áreas como anatomía, fisiología y evaluación clínica. Además, permite a diferentes especialistas complementar su quehacer cotidiano, pues facilita la adquisición de habilidades y el reconocimiento de las limitaciones de la herramienta, según la certificación de competencias y la reglamentación vigente.
Conclusiones: el PoCUS es una herramienta efectiva (y con mínimos eventos adversos) para la toma de decisiones clínicas en el servicio de urgencias, e incluso en otros contextos de la práctica clínica. El entrenamiento requerido para la adquisición de las habilidades técnicas necesarias para su manejo está al alcance de cualquier médico.
Coco, sus trastornos de memoria y el poder de la música
Authors: Rodriguez-Ucros Angela Maria , Hernandez-Pabon Juan Camilo , Palacios-Sánchez Leonardo
Published: October 2022

Coco es una película de Disney Pixar del año 2017 inspirada en la tradicional fiesta mexicana del Día de los Muertos. La cinta gira alrededor de la aventura que emprende Miguel en busca de sus ancestros guiado por su amor por la música. Durante su travesía descubre que, debido a las fallas de memoria que presenta su bisabuela, Coco, el padre de ella será olvidado para siempre. A su regreso, Miguel interpreta para ella la canción Recuérdame, lo que provoca una sorprendente y transitoria mejoría de la protagonista.
En este artículo los autores llaman la atención sobre el efecto de la música en la memoria de mamá Coco, y desde el punto de vista neuropsiquiátrico se plantea la inquietud en torno al diagnóstico que podría tener dicho personaje a la luz de la quinta edición del Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V). Se revisa el concepto del poder de la música propuesto por Oliver Sacks hace quince años y la evidencia actual acerca de la influencia de dicho arte en pacientes con demencia.
Un melodrama de la psicología
Authors: Burgos José E.
Published: October 2022

En este artículo discuto críticamente un debate que considero como melodramático por excesivo y científicamente estéril, a saber, cuál es el objeto de estudio propio de la psicología científica. En un lado de este debate se encuentran el conductismo skinneriano y kantoriano, en los cuales se postula que la conducta e interconducta, respectivamente, son los objetos propios de estudio de la psicología, manifestando una obsesión por separarla ontológica y epistemológicamente del resto de la ciencia, así como de la psicología mentalista, falsamente acusada de dualista. En el otro lado se encuentra el mentalismo, con una obsesión igualmente separatista, sobre todo respecto a la biología. Este melodrama, que si la conducta, que si la mente, está plagado de manoteos teatrales que en algunos casos buscan forzar agendas de investigación psicológica motivadas en buena parte por intereses y gustos personales, violando en algunos casos la libertad académica intelectual. Arguyo que este melodrama solo entorpece el progreso en la psicología y que, en esos casos, amenaza la libertad intelectual, adquiriendo tintes normativos en manos de personas con poder político y económico. Mi sugerencia es la moderación en este debate, complementada por una mayor cultura general filosófica y más respeto a la libertad académica intelectual.
Las psicologías no mediacionales: Introducción
Authors: Pérez Almonacid Ricardo
Published: October 2022

El artículo tiene el objetivo de introducir a las aproximaciones no mediacionales en psicología y servir de contexto para comprender el debate al que fueron invitados Josep Roca i Balasch, José Enrique Burgos Triano y Pablo Covarrubias en este número monográfico. Comienza caracterizando lo central de las psicologías mediacionales, para comprender a lo que se oponen las psicologías no mediacionales. Posteriormente, ofrece un mapa genealógico de esta familia de aproximaciones, que a su vez sirve para comprender las redes de influencia teórica entre varios autores y para ubicar a los autores invitados. Enseguida, presenta los principales argumentos que esgrimen las psicologías no mediacionales, resaltando que no necesariamente todas las modalidades acogen todos los argumentos. Finalmente, se hace una breve reseña biográfica de los invitados y se presenta la estructura del monográfico.
