Swiftly growing viruses are a major intimidation to human health. Such viruses are extremely pathogenic like Ebola virus, influenza virus, HIV virus, Zika virus etc . Ebola virus, a type of Filovirus, is an extremely infectious, single-stranded ribonucleic acid virus that infects both humans and apes, prompting acute fever with hemorrhagic syndrome. The high infectivity, severity and mortality of Ebola has plagued the world for the past fifty years with its first outbreak in 1976 in Marburg, Germany, and Frankfurt along with Belgrade and Serbia. The world has perceived about 28,000 cases and over 11,000 losses. The high lethality of Ebola makes it a candidate for use in bioterrorism thereby arising more concern. New guidelines have been framed for providing best possible care to the patients suffering from Ebola virus i.e Grading of Recommendation Assessment, Development And Evaluation (GRADE) methodology to develop evidence-based strategy for the treatment in future outbreak of Ebola virus. No drugs have been approved, while many potent drugs like rVSV-EBOV, Favipiravir, ZMapp are on clinical test for human safety. In this review we will discover and discuss perspective aspects that lead to the evolution of different Ebola variants as well as advances in various drugs and vaccines for treatment of the disease.

The present work described the development of two simple, accurate, rapid, cost effective and reproducible UV-Spectrophotometric methods for the simultaneous estimation of Quinfamide and Mebendazole in bulk and in laboratory mixture using 0.01M methanolic HCl as a solvent. The absorption maximum for Quinfamide and Mebendazole were found to be at 260.00 nm and 232.40 nm respectively. Beer’s – lamberts was followed in concentration ranges of 1 – 6 μg/mL for Quinfamide and 2- 12 μg/mL for Mebendazole. The percentage recovery of Quinfamide and mebendazole ranged from 98.48 to 99.08 and 98.83 to 99.62 (Method I); from 98.14 to 98.93 and 99.16 to 99.35 (Method II) for Quinfamide and Mebendazole. The established methods were sensible for simultaneous quantitative determination of both these drugs in fixed dose combinations. Validation of both these methods was performed as per ICH guidelines. The developed methods can routinely be used for estimation of both these drugs in their combined dosage form.

Probability Models For Explaining Migration Process From Eastern Uttar Pradesh, India
Authors: S. K. Singh  , Raj Narayan
Published: September 2020

This paper aims to examine the pattern of male out-migration and explains the distribution of households according to number of male migrants aged fifteen and above. The suitability of proposed model is tested with primary data collected from remote and semi-urban areas of Varanasi, 2012. Findings highlight that the average number of clusters from the remote households is higher and the average number of individuals per clusters is lower in comparison to the semi-urban villages. The average number of migrants per household has increased with increasing size of households in the remote as well as in semi-urban villages. The average number of migrants per household is higher among upper caste followed by middle caste, Muslims and scheduled caste from the study area. Average number of migrants per household has increased over six times in the low economic status of the households. In the medium and high economic status of the households, average number of migrants per household is found to be around three and two times more respectively, over the last three decades. The increasing average number of migrants per household portray that an increasing propensity of adult male migration from the study area. Over 2.7 times increase in the average number of migrants per household may be primarily due to increasing man-land ratio in the absence of relative growth in employment opportunities. Thus, the existing imbalances in demand and supply of gainful employment opportunities in the region may be the key to continuously increasing the number of migrants per households from the region.

Authors: McEnany Fiona B. , Ojugbele Olutosin , Doherty Julie R. , McLaren Jennifer L. , Leyenaar JoAnna K.
Published: September 2020

CONTEXT:

The growing prevalence of pediatric mental and behavioral health disorders, coupled with scarce psychiatric resources, has resulted in a substantial increase in the number of youth waiting in emergency departments (EDs) and medical units for inpatient psychiatric care.

OBJECTIVE:

To characterize the prevalence of pediatric mental health boarding and identify associated patient and hospital factors.

DATA SOURCES:

Medline and PsycINFO.

STUDY SELECTION:

All studies describing frequencies, durations, processes, outcomes, and/or risk factors associated with pediatric mental health boarding in youth ≤21 years of age.

DATA EXTRACTION:

Publications meeting inclusion criteria were charted by 2 authors and critically appraised for quality.

RESULTS:

Eleven studies met inclusion criteria; 10 were retrospective cohort studies and 9 were conducted at single centers. All of the single-center studies were conducted at children’s hospitals or pediatric EDs in urban or suburban settings. Study sample sizes ranged from 27 to 44 328. Among youth requiring inpatient psychiatric care, 23% to 58% experienced boarding and 26% to 49% boarded on inpatient medical units. Average boarding durations ranged from 5 to 41 hours in EDs and 2 to 3 days in inpatient units. Risk factors included younger age, suicidal or homicidal ideation, and presentation to a hospital during nonsummer months. Care processes and outcomes were infrequently described. When reported, provision of psychosocial services varied widely.

LIMITATIONS:

Boarding definitions were heterogeneous, study sample sizes were small, and rural regions and general hospitals were underrepresented.

CONCLUSIONS:

Pediatric mental health boarding is prevalent and understudied. Additional research representing diverse hospital types and geographic regions is needed to inform clinical interventions and health care policy.

Authors: Gómez Tabares Anyerson Stiths , Narvaez Marin Mariela
Published: September 2020

El objetivo consistió en analizar las diferencias de género y la relación entre empatía, autoeficacia emocional y tendencias prosociales en adolescentes que han vivido situaciones de vulnerabilidad psicosocial, ubicados en una institución de protección en Manizales y en tres municipios de Caldas (Colombia). El estudio se realizó con una metodología cuantitativa, diseño no experimental de tipo transversal, alcance descriptivo-correlacional; la muestra fue no probabilística a disponibilidad, conformada por 69 adolescentes entre 12 y 18 años. Se usaron como instrumentos la Escala de Tendencias Prosociales revisada (PTM-R), Índice de Reactividad Interpersonal (IRI), y Escala de Autoeficacia para la Regulación Emocional (RESE). El modelo empírico muestra que la expresión de emociones positivas y el manejo de emociones negativas requieren del rol mediador de la empatía, en sus dos componentes, cognitivo y emocional, para explicar las motivaciones prosociales en los adolescentes. Por lo tanto, se concluye que es necesario articular la investigación y la intervención psicosocial y educativa en el estudio y estimulación de la prosocialidad, así como los factores positivamente asociados en poblaciones que han vivido experiencias de vulneración psicosocial

Model Penafsiran Kisah oleh Muhammad Abduh dalam Al-Manar: Studi Kisah Adam pada Surah Al-Baqarah
Authors: Bustamam Risman , Aisyah Devy
Published: September 2020

This paper aims to criticize Tafsir al-Manar, Muhammad Abduh's monumental work as a pioneer of modern interpretation, which criticizes classical interpretative works, which he considers to be too story oriented, then offers a method of interpreting stories that focuses on `ibrah narratives, although not maximally. This study is a research library, using a semantic perspective as a knife of analysis, through three approaches; interpretation, content analysis, and hermeneutics. This study found that Abduh had applied the method of interpretation of the verse of the story that he had conceived. From the perspective of semantic interpretation and study, Abduh interprets verse by verse, studies the meaning of lughah, and reviews balaghah, munasabah, which focuses on hida'i (hidayah) and intiqadi (critical studies), and does not use hadiths. That is, Abduh is consistent with the Salaf pattern in interpreting the story, namely positioning it as mutasyabihat, and holding to the principle; tanziih, tasliim, and tafwiidh, and anti-takwil.
Ensuring the psychedelic renaissance and radical healing reach the Black community: Commentary on Culture and Psychedelic Psychotherapy
Authors: Buchanan Nicole T.
Published: September 2020

Similar to much of the mental health field, psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy has failed to center the needs of people of color. Monnica Williams and colleagues demonstrate the harm faced by Black women and other people of color when working with psychedelic-assisted psychotherapists that are unaware of and ill-equipped to address sensitive topics related to race. Here I discuss the benefits and limitations of Functional Analytic Psychotherapy training for therapists that have not engaged in deep and reflective processes to understand their personal engagement in racism, privilege, and oppression. I call on leaders in the field of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy to adhere to a new standard of intersectional cultural humility for anyone preparing to provide these services. Finally, I highlight the need to significantly increase the number of therapists of color trained to offer psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy to begin to address racial disparities to access to these radical treatments for trauma.

Published: September 2020

Abstract Phytochemical and antioxidant activity of quinoa flour was evaluated after subjected to gamma irradiation processes at dose 3 and 6 kGy. Both non-irradiated and irradiated quinoa samples were subjected to successive extractions in ethanol solvent. The antioxidant activity after gamma irradiation treatment was investigated via Ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and radical-scavenging activity (RSA) using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH).Total phenolic and flavonoid content were analyzed using Folin–Ciocalteu micro-method, aluminium chloride (AlCl3) method and High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). As well as, effect of irradiation treatment on saponin was also evaluated. Irradiation treatment showed slight differences in the saponin content after exposure to 3 and 6 kGy. Irradiation process enhanced both total phenolic content (TPC) and Total flavonoid content (TFC), TPC were 34.52 and 30.92 mg Gallic Acid Equivalent (GAE)/100g compared to 26.25 mg GAE/100g in non-irradiated quinoa. TFC were 67.44 and 62.89 mg Quercetin Equivalents (QE)/100g compared to 53.15 mg QE/100g. Irradiation dose 3 kGy significantly (p> 0.05) decreased the IC50 as DPPH-RSA and increased the FRAP.

Published: September 2020

RESUMO A análise de desempenho de uma organização é sempre algo passível de muitas discussões. Questionamentos sobre quais indicadores utilizar e como consolidá-los de forma a estabelecer um critério justo de avaliação de performance estão presentes em vários estudos e no dia-a-dia das empresas. É nesse sentido que se apresenta este trabalho como uma proposta de modelagem deste problema, por intermédio da utilização da Análise Envoltória de Dados (DEA). Busca-se um índice de performance relativa que seja capaz de conjugar indicadores financeiros de liquidez, de custo, de risco e de rentabilidade na análise de desempenho organizacional. Em outras palavras, o índice de cada empresa é uma combinação integrada de vários vetores de desempenho e é função não só de sua performance, mas também do desempenho das outras empresas analisadas. Fizeram parte da amostra desta pesquisa bancos de quatro segmentos: 20 bancos de varejo, 34 de atacado, 21 de middle market e 26 de financiamento, que estavam em operação no Brasil em 2003, listados no ranking da revista Balanço Financeiro da Gazeta Mercantil, sobre o desempenho dos melhores bancos e outras instituições financeiras. Os resultados mostram que tanto os gigantes quanto as pequenas e médias instituições têm totais condições de sobrevivência e de competição, pois não é o tamanho que gera a competitividade no setor, mas sim o desempenho superior.

Published: September 2020

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE We aimed to present a review of renal changes in patients with COVID-19. METHODS We performed a systematic review of the literature to identify original articles regarding clinical, laboratory, and anatomopathological kidney changes in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 published until May 7, 2020. The search was carried out across PubMed, Scopus, and Embase using the keywords “COVID-19”, “coronavirus”, “SARS-CoV-2”, “kidney injury” and “kidney disease”. Fifteen studies presented clinical and laboratory renal changes in patients with COVID-19, and three addressed anatomopathological changes. DISCUSSION Acute kidney injury (AKI) was a relevant finding in patients with COVID-19. There were also significant changes in laboratory tests that indicated kidney injury, such as increased serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), proteinuria, and hematuria. The presence of laboratory abnormalities and AKI were significant in severely ill patients. There was a considerable prevalence of AKI among groups of patients who died of COVID-19. Histopathological analysis of the kidney tissue of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 suggested that the virus may directly affect the kidneys. CONCLUSION Although COVID-19 affects mainly the lungs, it can also impact the kidneys. Increased serum creatinine and BUN, hematuria, proteinuria, and AKI were frequent findings in patients with severe COVID-19 and were related to an increased mortality rate. Further studies focusing on renal changes and their implications for the clinical condition of patients infected with the novel coronavirus are needed.

Published: September 2020

SUMMARY INTRODUCTION The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by infections from a novel human coronavirus, has been reported since December 2019 in China but was only made official in March 2020. Since then, it has had an impact worldwide, both due to its aggressiveness and its fast propagation. Society has been facing this pandemic by following the recommendations and determinations of the WHO and the strategies deployed by governmental institutions. Among these, social isolation has been shown to be the most important, because when isolating, society tends to move less, with a consequent increase in physical inactivity and sedentary behavior, affecting its levels of physical fitness. The objectives of this review were: to review the most important effects of physical inactivity and sedentary behavior on the physical fitness levels of the population during the COVID-19 pandemic. CONCLUSION The role of a regular practice of activities on the levels of physical fitness is fundamental to define the balance of quality of life during a COVID-19.

SUMMARY INTRODUCTION In this retrospective study, we aimed to investigate the frequency of COVID-19 in patients with and without BCG application due to bladder tumors. METHODS The presence of COVID-19 was investigated in 167 patients with BCG and 167 without bladder cancer. All patients were compatible with COVID-19 infection. Patients with RT-PCR positive for SARS-CoV-2 and/or Chest CT positive for viral pneumonia between March and May 2020 were included in the study. RESULTS A total of 334 patients were included in the study. The mean age of the 167 patients in the study group was 71.1±14.2 1 (min. 38.0– max. 98.0 years), 141 (84.4%) were male. The mean age of the 167 patients in the control group was 70.5±13.8 years (min. 41.0– max. 96.0 years), and 149 were male (p> 0.05). COVID-19 was detected in 5 patients in the BCG group and in 4 patients in the control group (P> 0.05). CONCLUSION Intravesical BCG administration does not decrease the frequency of COVID-19 infection.

RESUMO O objetivo do presente trabalho foi relacionar a eficiência do controle químico em pós-emergência de Brachiaria decumbens Stapf. (capim-braquiária) e Brachiaria plantaginea Hitchc. (capim-marmelada) por meio de herbicidas inibidores da enzima ACCase em função do estádio de desenvolvimento da planta, visando fornecer subsídios para o manejo químico dessas espécies daninhas. A semeadura de B. decumbens e B. plantaginea foi feita em vasos plásticos contendo solo e mantidos em casa de vegetação. Para a avaliação do controle químico foram testados os herbicidas (g ha-1): fluazifop-p-butil a 150, haloxyfop-methyl a 50 e sethoxydim a 230. Os herbicidas foram aplicados em três estádios de desenvolvimento da planta: estádio 1 (plantas com 4-6 folhas aos 15 dias após a emergência), estádio 2 (plantas com 3-4 perfilhos aos 23 dias após a emergência) e estádio 3 (plantas adultas no início do florescimento aos 48 dias após a emergência). As avaliações de controle foram feitas 4, 7, 10, 14, 17, 21, 24 e 28 dias após a aplicação dos herbicidas. O estádio de desenvolvimento das duas espécies de Brachiaria foi determinante na eficiência de controle proporcionado pelos diferentes herbicidas estudados. Verificou-se que o herbicida sethoxydim foi mais eficiente no controle das espécies de Brachiaria, nos três estádios de desenvolvimento estudados.

RESUMO Objetivou-se avaliar eficiência e efeito residual de inseticidas aplicados sobre azulejo (face lisa) e ardósia (rugosa) para o controle de Blattella germanica. Realizou-se o experimento no Departamento de Fitossanidade, UNESP-Jaboticabal, SP (de 3-5 a 2-8-2007). A população suscetível ao controle químico foi criada em sala não climatizada. Os tratamentos utilizados foram (dosagens em produtos comerciais): lambdacialotrina (Demand 2,5 CS) 10 mL/L (12,5 mg/m2); lambdacialotrina (Icon 5,0 CE) 5 mL/L (12,5 mg/m2); deltametrina (Deltagard WG) 2 saches/10 L (12,5 mg/m2); lambdacialotrina (Zeon 50CS) 5 mL/L (12,5 mg/m2); deltametrina (Deltek CS) 5 mL/L (6,25 mg/m2); Diclorvos (DDVP 1000CE) 5 mL/L (250 mg/m2) e testemunha. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi blocos casualizados, com quatro repetições. Os inseticidas foram aplicados com pulverizador pressurizado (350 kPa) e volume de 40 mL/m2. Uma hora após a aplicação, liberaram-se 10 baratas adultas para caminhar sobre a área tratada. Após 15 minutos foram retiradas e colocadas em potes para avaliações (0, 1, 2, 4, 24, 48 e 72 horas após a exposição). Placas tratadas foram mantidas em prateleiras para avaliar o efeito residual dos produtos 30, 60 e 90 dias após aplicação. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância e teste Tukey. Concluiu-se que no dia da aplicação dos inseticidas não ocorre diferença entre as superfícies no controle de B. germanica. O efeito residual dos inseticidas foi maior na superfície lisa (azulejo) do que na superfície rugosa (ardósia). Os inseticidas lambdacialotrina e deltametrina (WG) proporcionaram excelente controle de B. germanica, até 90 dias após a aplicação.

Published: September 2020

Abstract Introduction: The presence of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) associated with neuropathy (myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis - HAM/TSP), can generate morphological and functional changes in the respiratory system. As a preventive therapeutic possibility for respiratory dysfunctions, it is expected that the already conceptualized inspiratory muscle training, when performed at home, can be a therapeutic resource that favors adherence to treatment. Objective: To evaluate respiratory muscle strength in patients with HTLV-1 after participating in a home respiratory muscle training protocol under indirect supervision. Method: This was a clinical, longitudinal, prospective, quantitative, and single-center trial approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the State University of Pará, opinion no. 2.695.505 and registered in clinical trials NCT03829709. Six HTLV-1 patients participated in a 5-week home respiratory muscle training protocol lasting 30 minutes daily through a linear load inspiratory muscle trainer. For the characterization of the imposed load, they were submitted to manovacuometry during pre (T0), peri (T3), and post (T5) treatment. Results: Six individuals completed the program, of which 83.33% were female and 16.66% male. With the application of respiratory muscle training, it was possible to achieve a significant increase (p < 0.011) of the maximum inspiratory pressure as shown when comparing T0 (66.8±12.58) to T5 (115.08±31.78). Conclusion: This study identified an increase in inspiratory muscle strength after HTLV-1 patients participated in a home muscle training protocol under indirect supervision.

Abstract: Earthworms are often related to fertile soils and are also frequently used as environmental quality indicators. However, to optimize their use as bioindicators, earthworm populations must be evaluated together with the environmental and anthropogenic variables regulating their communities. This review sought to identify the earthworm-sampling, soil chemical and physical, and environmental and anthropogenic attributes evaluated in 124 published studies that quantified earthworm abundance (>7,300 samples) in 765 sites with different types of climate, soils, land use, and management systems in Brazil. Soil chemical and physical attributes (except pH) were less reported (≤50% of studies) than other environmental variables such as sampling date, altitude, temperature, precipitation, climate and soil type, and land use (>50% of studies). Earthworms were rarely identified (24%) and few studies (31%) measured their biomass, although most provided adequate information on sampling protocol. Based on their importance in regulating earthworm populations, a set of variables is proposed to be evaluated when studying earthworm communities and other macrofauna groups. This should help guide future studies on earthworms in Brazil and other countries, optimize data collection and replicability, allow comparisons between different studies, and promote the use of earthworms as soil quality bioindicators.

Published: September 2020

Problem çözme sürecinde anahtar rol oynayan problem çözme stratejilerinin bir sınıflandırmaya tabi tutulmadığı görülmektedir. Bu araştırma ile literatürde en çok yer alan problem çözme stratejilerinin matematiksel süreç becerileri itibari ile sınıflandırılması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın nitel boyutu Çanakkale İl Merkezindeki bir ortaokulun sekizinci sınıfında öğrenim görmekte olan 21 öğrenciden elde edilen verilerle gerçekleştirilmiştir. Literatürde en çok yer alan dokuz problem çözme stratejisine yönelik on sekiz sıradışı problemden oluşan “Problem Çözme Testi (PÇT)” kullanılarak toplanan veriler üç uzman tarafından içerik analizi yöntemiyle analiz edilerek problem çözme stratejilerinin matematiksel süreç becerilerine göre sınıflandırılması yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda, “Bağıntı Bulma”, “Değişken Kullanma” ve “Diyagram Çizme” stratejilerinin hem formüle etme hem de yürütme süreçlerini; “Sistematik Liste Yapma” ve “Tablo Yapma” stratejilerinin sadece yürütme sürecini; “Geriye Doğru Çalışma”, “Tahmin ve Kontrol” ve “Muhakeme Etme” stratejilerinin hem yürütme hem de yorumlama ve değerlendirme süreçlerini; “Basitleştirme” stratejisinin ise formüle etme, yürütme, yorumlama ve değerlendirme süreçlerini içerdiği tespit edilmiştir. Gerçekleştirilen sınıflandırma ile problem çözme strateji öğretimlerinin daha nitelikli olarak planlanmasına fırsat sağlanabilir ve süreç becerileri doğrultusunda sınıflandırılan stratejilerden yararlanılarak etkili matematik okuryazarlığı eğitimleri gerçekleştirilebilir.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19) is a pandemic disease that is today a global public health problem caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2). COVID-19 is a disease of middle and old age, but clinical expression may also be present in childhood. Asymptomatic and mild clinical forms are most often present in persons aged 0-19, but severe clinical forms such as, among others, acute respiratory distress syndrome and multisystem inflammatory syndrome may occur. In addition to presenting the epidemiology, clinical symptomatology of COVID-19, the authors consider certain specifics of COVID-19, that is, possible reasons for the lower incidence of the disease as well as unusual and rare clinical forms of the disease in children. The current activities of health professionals in the supervision of COVID-19 are mainly focused on early detection, isolation and treatment of patients, isolation of contacts, the regular and thorough practice of respiratory hygiene, hand hygiene, and physical distancing. Future efficient and safe vaccination will solve the biggest global medical challenge caused by the new coronavirus in the best possible manner.
The Modeling of Spike-Wave Discharges in Brain with Small Oscillatory Neural Networks

Published: September 2020

A pathology of coupling architecture in the thalamo-cortical system is considered the main cause of absence epilepsy, the eletroencephalographic primary manifestation of which are spike-wave discharges. The immediate cause of the discharges may be in increase of intracortical connectivity or external stimulation of cortex or thalamus. At the same time, the mechanisms of discharge termination are still not clear; so from the point of view of the dynamical system theory, the spike-wave discharge can be considered as a long transient process. In this paper, we propose a simple mathematical model of network with 14 identical Fitzhugh–Nagumo neurons, which is organized in accordance with modern ideas about thalamo-cortical brain network. In this model, long transients in response to short-term pulse driving from a separate neuron, representing the nervus trigeminus, are shown to be possible. Bifurcation analysis reveals such transients to develop in the system approximately the bifurcation of the cycle birth from the condensation of phase trajectories. The model may be useful for detailed studies of the thalamo-cortical system. It also can be used to investigate effects of electrical brain stimulation and pharmacological interventions, and to test the methods for evaluating connectivity in brain.

Published: September 2020

The article analyses the process of intuitionism's "entry" into European philosophical – aesthetical and studying of art area from 1913 – the year of publishing the first English speaking interpretation of the French thinker. It is shown as the line of thesis of his philosophical conception transformed into the sphere of artistic creation and influenced on the art of the XX century. The examples of intuitionism's interpretation which are represented in modern Ukrainian human science have been accented. It is underlined that the first experience of English – language interpretation of Henri Bergson's ideas, whose works were very popular in European cultural area, is connected with the name of Gerbert Wildom Karr (1859 – 1931), who proposed popular account of the French theorists views in the work The philosophy of Bergson. The accent is made on the fact that G.W. Karr's interpretational model uses the principle of systematization of "the problem field" which H. Bergson formed during the first decade of the XX century. Special attention is paid to"intuitionalism" – composed part of "bergsonism" in the context of which a special theoretic loading lies on the factors "memory" and "time". Examining "time" H. Bergson proposes to take into consideration its "reversibility" and "non-reversibility". It is shown that factors "memory" and "time" were actively used in avant-garde art and in "logic – alogic" of the building of literary works of the school of "new novel" and in European cinematograph of the 70 – 80 years of the ХХ century. As a good example of aesthetic-artistic embodiment of the modifications of "memory" and "time" the creation of famous Spanish producer Karlos Sauro has been considered. It is emphasized that a special load in the general system of views of H. Bergson is "intuitionism", which in the European cultural space was highly appreciated by both the philosophical community and artists. It is emphasized that such factors of "intuitionism" as intelligence, instinct, intuition, time, memory, are still relevant in the research field.

The article attempts to highlight the understanding of culture in the work of famous Ukrainian Soviet philosophers of the second half of the ХХ century – Vadym Ivanov and Olexandr Yatsenko. Ukrainian Soviet philosophy of the postwar period is known primarily for research in logic, philosophical problems of science, philosophical anthropology, as well as research on the history of national philosophy. At the same time, philosophical and cultural issues seemed to be "in the shadow" of the above studies and actually leveled off in this period of development of Ukrainian philosophical thought. Because of this, there is a need to analyze the legacy of Ukrainian Soviet philosophers, who focused their attention on the philosophical explication of the phenomenon of culture. V. Ivanov and O. Yatsenko were among such thinkers. The thesis is substantiated that the philosophical comprehension of culture, of course, was not in the center of attention of the studied Ukrainian thinkers, however, while developing these or those concepts, they certainly concerned reflections on the cultural phenomenon, which became important for the development of the philosophical tradition in Ukraine. It is proved that for V. Ivanov culture becomes one of the most important factors of human self-realization and self-realization. It is especially important to emphasize that the culture of the Ukrainian Soviet philosopher is very connected with various kinds of social phenomena, thereby making it key in interpersonal relations in society. V. Ivanov emphasizes that culture is not a system, but one of the elements of human existence and manifestation of its existence. Thus, culture in the context of human existence determines not only the present, but also the perspective on which human progress is directed in one aspect or another. It was revealed that O. Yatsenko notes the close interconnection of culture and goal setting and ideals. In his opinion, culture, being a social phenomenon, is one of the key forms in which a person is able to realize his goals and ideals.
