Authors: D.D. Malysheva , Yu.B. Vorobieva , A.M. Kovalevsky
Published: April 2022

Abstract. As you know, one of the most important stages in the aesthetic restoration of teeth is its finishing, which means grinding and polishing to a “dry shine”. When carrying out restoration work by a dentist, light-curing composite filling materials are used. However, the fact that different materials at the final stage are completely polished differently is rarely taken into account. The aim of the study is to achieve a “dry gloss” of restorations from the most popular composite materials with prepolymerized inclusions from the composite itself, as well as a subsequent comparative analysis of the results. A laboratory study was carried out aimed at determining the polishing properties of composite materials, and a technique for evaluating the polishing of composite materials with prepolymerized inclusions was also developed for subsequent comparison. Polishing discs, polishing rubber heads, brushes with polishing paste were used. First, the sample of the composite material was polished with all polishing discs in the manner prescribed by the manufacturer. If a “dry sheen” was achieved as a result of polishing, then the polishing was considered successful. If this effect was not achieved, the following polishing agent was used. The steps were repeated until the desired result was achieved. A microscopic examination of four composite materials before and after polishing was carried out to compare the results. The data obtained are summarized in a single table. It has been found that different composite materials are polished in one step or in multiple steps to achieve a "dry sheen". Each composite material requires different forces and the use of different systems and tools, which is important for timing when taking a patient.

Abstract. The paper considers an original method for asessment the ciliar beating frequency (CBF) of the ciliated epithelium (mucociliary clearance) of the nasal mucosa using modern high-speed digital video recording of the microscopic picture of the brushed specimen, which followed by mathematical processing. This method used to study the local mucociliary clearance of the middle nasal meatus, which plays a key role in the modern understanding of the osteomeatal complex function. The normal values of the CBF of the middle nasal meatus in healthy individuals (11.76 ± 3.01 Hz) were determined. We studied the changes in the CBF of the ciliary epithelium of the middle nasal meatus with foreign bodies of the maxillary sinus. A correlation found between changes in the CBF of the ciliary epithelium of the middle nasal meatus and the CT changes in the region of the middle nasal meatus and paranasal sinuses. This also determined the effect of surgical trauma on the CBF of the middle nasal meatus and its changes in the early (up to 1 month) and late (1-6 months) following period. We clearly proved the dependence of the mucociliary clearance of the middle nasal meatus on the type of surgical access to the maxillary sinus during surgical interventions for foreign bodies of the maxillary sinus. We revealed certain advantages of transmaxillary and prelacrimal surgical access to the maxillary sinus over endonasal antrostomy during surgical interventions for foreign bodies of the maxillary sinus. Our data allow optimizing surgical interventions on the maxillary sinus with minimization of surgical trauma to the ciliary epithelium of the middle nasal passage and improving the functional and morphological results of surgical treatment of foreign bodies in the maxillary sinuses.

In this work, the W-doped Ag3PO4 was prepared by the chemical coprecipitation method and irradiated with a femtosecond laser (FL). The successful formation of the Ag/Ag3PO4:W heterostructure was confirmed by XRD analysis. A higher structural disorder in the [PO4] clusters was observed for the FL irradiated sample (Ag3PO4:W-FL), indicating the formation of Ag metallic from the Ag3PO4 structure. The photocatalytic activity of the samples was studied by photodegradation of rhodamine B under visible light irradiation. The formation of Ag nanoparticles on the surface of Ag3PO4:W led to a degradation rate constant 3.54 times higher than the nonirradiated sample. This higher photocatalytic activity was related to the surface plasmon resonance effect of the Ag metallic, which acts by capturing photoexcited electrons from the Ag3PO4:W, avoiding the recombination of electron-hole pairs, and thus improving the photocatalytic activity.
Catalytic potential of titanium oxide and gold dopped titanium oxide nanoparticles in the selectivity benzyl alcohol oxidation
Authors: Gabriel Arthur Martins , Malaquias Karla da Silva , Cristovan Fernando Henrique , Arantes Tatiane Moraes
Published: April 2022

Titanium oxide (TiO2) nanoparticles have been widely used and researched in recent years due to their wide application in several areas such as solar cells, catalysis and their chemical, non-toxic and electrical properties. Thus, this work aimed to study the catalytic potential of these nanomaterials through the oxidation of benzyl alcohol, for which TiO2 nanoparticles synthesized by the hydrothermal method and decorated with gold nanoparticles obtained by the Turkevich method (TiO2/Au) were used. The catalyst proved to be active for the catalysis of benzyl alcohol oxidation, with a yield of about 73% for the TiO2/Au catalyst and 1.4% for the TiO2 catalyst. Additionally, it was observed that the catalyst was selective, since the GC-MS and FTIR spectra showed only benzaldehyde as the final reaction product. The selective oxidation of alcohols is one of the most significant transformations in organic chemistry, as it is essential for the production of industrial intermediates.
Analysis of Waste Minimization Challenges to European Food Production Enterprises
Authors: Grinberga-Zalite Gunta , Zvirbule Andra
Published: April 2022

Economic growth increases the pressure on environmental issues, thus highlighting the importance of waste minimization processes. The waste management approaches in most European countries have so far been relatively little studied and compared at the micro level. The main objective of the current research is to analyze the challenges of waste minimization in European food industry enterprises and identify good practices in the selected countries. The research used a mixed-method methodology, combining both qualitative and quantitative methods, thus providing an in-depth insight into food enterprises’ efforts to reduce their production waste and use their resources more efficiently. The main data collection methods used for the study were secondary data research, discourse analysis, case studies, and focus group interviews. The analysis of the food waste management applications in the European countries’ food sub-sectors leads to the conclusion that since the national initiatives and success factors vary between the countries, it is important to invent such national food waste management systems that are economically justified and technically available for all enterprises regardless of their food waste production volumes. It is also necessary to raise awareness of the strategies that food industry employers, employees, and consumers can use to reduce their waste and thus promote a waste minimization culture in Europe. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2022-06-03-08 Full Text: PDF

Published: April 2022

Economic growth can be defined by real gross domestic value and international imports and exports supported by technology and innovation. Currently, there are concerns about the level of international technological policy investment, despite having the capability to be macroeconomically and business-valuable. The main objective of this research is to study the attributions in relationships and associations between the policy implications of technological business (PITB) and the effort of technology and innovation acceptance capacity (TIAC), which influence capacity development and foresight to ensure effective Japanese foreign policies. This research has been fully justified through business policy receiving technology and innovation, the potential for technology and innovation adoption (PTIA) and innovation for firm performance (IFP) of Japanese joint venture companies in Thailand was examined. Fifty-seven companies were subjected to the structural equation model testing method. Data collection was conducted by the questionnaire and an in-depth interview with validity and reliability checked under 4 main latent variables: PITB, TIAC, PTIA, and IFP. All processing was performed with the ADANCO 2.2.1 program. The research found that PITB had a positive correlation and directly influenced PTIA and IFP unless it had an inverse correlation to TIAC and the relationship between TIAC and PTIA. It can serve as a guide for how to correctly carry out the principle of creating a new Japan's foreign policy in the future. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2022-06-03-09 Full Text: PDF
Rus dilinde ilgeçler
Authors: ÖMER Süreyya
Published: April 2022

Rusçada ilgeç anlamına gelen çastitsa (Rus. частица) terimi tek başına anlamı olmayan, cümle içerisinde başka sözcüklerle bir araya geldiğinde anlam kazanan sözcükler için kullanılır. Çeşitli görüşler olmakla beraber genel olarak bu sözcükler bağımlı ulamlar sınıfında ele alınır. Kullanıldığı yere göre anlamsal açıdan bilinen birincil anlamından büsbütün farklı anlama sahip olabilen ilgeçler, anlamsal ve işlevsel açıdan oldukça zor dilsel birimlerdir. İletişim sürecinde çok tercih edilen bu birimler, özellikle gündelik konuşmalarda hayli işlektir. Konuşan ile alıcının iç dünyasını yakınlaştıran ilgeçler sayesinde konuşanın tavrını alıcı kolayca anlayabilmekte, bunun sonucunda da başarılı bir iletişim sağlanmış olabilmektedir. İletişimi yöneten ilgeçlerin, sözün ve metnin kurucu bileşenleri olarak rolü son derece büyüktür. Bu nedenle ilgeçlerin anlamsal ve işlevsel açıdan ayrıntılı ele alınmasına yönelik gün geçtikçe ilgi artmaktadır. Makalemizde Rus dilinin en problematik ulamlarından biri olan ilgeçlerin betimlenmesinde mevcut olan çeşitli yaklaşımlar ortaya konulmuş ve araştırmacılar arasında ilgeçlerin bir kavram olarak tanımlanması, ilgeçlerin ulamlar arasındaki yeri, ilgeçlerin sınıflandırılması gibi konularda görüş ayrılığı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. XIX. yüzyılın ikinci yarısından başlayarak günümüze kadar ilgeçler konusunu ele alan çok sayıda çalışma yapılmakla birlikte çok anlamlılığı, anlamsal sınırlarının belirsizliği gibi nedenlerden dolayı ilgeçlerin tanımlanması ve sınıflandırılması konusunda kesin çizgilerin çizilememiş olduğu kanısına varılmıştır. İlgeçler konusundaki birçok belirsizliğin ortadan kalkması için bu birimleri onların işlevsel-edimbilimsel özelliklerini dikkate alarak inceleyen çok yönlü çalışmaların hazırlanması gerekmektedir.
Антропонимические Гнезда Очерка И.С. Тургенева «Живые Мощи», Ассоциативные Поля И Функции Антропоэтонимов
Authors: KARAYEL Can
Published: April 2022

Статья посвящена связи семантики антропоэтонимов очерка «Живые мощи» (1874) И.С. Тургенева с характерами героев, мотивами данного произведения и ассоциативными полями, формирующими художественные образы. Все антропонимические гнезда очерка, за исключением гнезда Ермолай, группируются вокруг антропонимеческого гнезда главной героини, тесно связаны с ним. Функции антропоэтонимов Ермолай и Ермолай-охотник заложены в имени персонажа. С помощью этих имен собственных в очерке формируются такие важные мотивы, как мотивы странствия, дороги, охоты, характерные для цикла очерков «Записок охотника» в целом. Семантическое «наполнение» имени персонажа определило также и функцию объединения разных очерков в один цикл. Ассоциативные поля антропоэтонима полностью соответсвуют семантике имени персонажа. Семантика антропонимов гнезда главной героини позволила автору использовать их в характерологической и сюжетообразующей функциях. Завершают формирование образа Лукерьи ассоциативные поля, построенные по принципу контраста, что также было заложено в противопоставлении имени героини Лукерья / Луша ее прозвищу Живые мощи. Антропоэтонимы Иоанна д’Арк, Симеон Столпник и Христос входят в ассоциативное поле героини и используются в произведении в характерологической функции. Антропонимы гнезда возлюбленного Лукерьи использованы в очерке: а) в мотивооформляющей функции: они вводят в произведение мотивы любви, расплаты за нее, несбывшегося семейного счастья, б) в сжетообразующей функции: они предопределили резкий поворот в судьбах героини и ее возлюбленного, в) формируют ассоциативную связь Лукерьи в период ее счастливой жизни с русалкой.

Authors: Arichabala Mendieta Vilma Rumelia , Mesa-Cano Isabel Cristina , Ramírez-Coronel Andrés Alexis , Quito Peralta Jenniffer Nataly
Published: April 2022

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia has been characterized as a chronic lung disease producing oxygen dependence of variable degree, as a result of a predominance of pulmonary injury factors that have had a higher incidence in premature newborns who have required mechanical ventilation and supplemental oxygen added to this prenatal and postnatal factor. Objective: To review scientific literature on neonatal bronchopulmonary dysplasia associated with prolonged mechanical ventilation. Methodology: In order to obtain relevant information to contribute to knowledge, a systematic review of original articles will be carried out including the databases Pubmed, Scopus, Scielo, using the following keywords "bronchopulmonary dysplasia, mechanical ventilation, surfactant oxygen therapy, caffeine, corticosteroids". We searched for articles written in Spanish, English, and Portuguese, published in the last 10 years. Results: A search was carried out in the following databases: Pubmed, Scopus, Scielo, in which we obtained a total of 638 documents, of which 588 did not meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria, so that for the present research we used 25 articles that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were those that responded to the objectives set. Conclusions: Despite several studies carried out since the first description of this disease, to date it has not been possible to eliminate the prevalence of this disease in neonates subjected to mechanical ventilation since this is an important clinical social and economic problem. In turn, it was concluded that, when using noninvasive ventilation, early use of surfactant and rapid extubating, as well as implementing strategies that regulate ventilatory parameters to avoid volutrauma are protective measures against lung injury.

Authors: León Abad Eliana Geomar
Published: April 2022

E-learning represented a true revolution that generated training needs at educational institutional levels all around the world. As a result of COVID-19 pandemic, face-to-face educational institutions were forced to change drastically from their regular teaching practice into virtual education. Consequently, the virtual teacher had to master skills, technological knowledge, and attitudes that would promote e-learning. With this premise, the objective of this research focused to analyze if the teachers of the Pedagogy of National and Foreign Languages (PINE, as per its initials in Spanish) Major possess sufficient skills, technological knowledge, and attitudes to teach in virtual mode. This study is quantitative-descriptive in nature and the study of the hypothesis is descriptive. The participants correspond to a sample of 87 aspirant students to Pedagogy of National and Foreign Languages Major (PINE). The evaluation instrument was a survey with a Likert scale. The percentages of the responses were considered for the analysis and comparison of the Ideal and Real Profile of the virtual teacher. Both, the statistical results, and the comparison of the Ideal Profile versus the Real Profile of the teachers, presented data above the estimated 60%. Finally, this work contributes to virtual teaching practice in emerging times. The results show that, despite the urgency and the drastic form of the change in modality, teachers knew how to adapt themselves to this change and were able to work successfully in this new modality.

Published: April 2022

La violencia contra la mujer es un problema evidente de salud pública, que trae consigo consecuencias negativas (tanto en su salud física como mental) no solo para la persona que las padece sino para la sociedad en general. Como tratamiento para estos casos se propone el uso de la Terapia Cognitiva Conductual misma que permite entender la influencia de las cogniciones en la relación con la violencia sexual, además de utilizarse por ser una terapia de aplicación corta que trae consigo resultados positivos en costos y tiempos de tratamiento y que se puede aplicar de manera individual y grupal. A través de esta revisión sistemática se muestran los resultados de búsqueda realizados en Scielo, PubMed, Redalyc, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Medline Plus, Researchagate y Google Scholar, de los cuales se incluyeron estudios de casos únicos, estudios experimentales, cuasiexperimental y descriptivos. Como resultados finales, a nivel general se evidencia que los artículos seleccionados muestran una reducción significativa de la sintomatología que padecen estas personas, destacando de esta manera la eficacia de la TCC.

Business Ecosystems of Ghana: challenges and development trends
Authors: Osei Lambert Kofi , Cherkasova Yuliya
Published: April 2022

The growth of Ghana's business ecosystem is examined in this article. The business ecosystem is a growing sector in terms of both volume and economic impact, particularly in emerging countries. The paper is an exploratory study that looks at the ecosystem's structure, laying the groundwork for future strategic analysis of the system. We used data from 2004 to 2020 extracted from Bank of Ghana annual reports and Ghana payment system reports. To illustrate the intensity of the system, issues confronting ecosystems, critical resource requirements, and motivation for Ghana to establish its own business ecosystem, we use Moore's business ecosystem theory. Also, to explain the appropriate workflow for the participants in the system, we drew heavily on Iansiti and Levien's work as well as that of Senyo’s et al. We have recommended that businesses pursue co-creation, networking, enhancing openness, and releasing information in their efforts to build a formidable business ecosystem in Ghana. It is also stated that, for the purpose of state security, governments should create a policy framework and improve regulation to provide an enabling environment for the country's business ecosystem to thrive.

Published: April 2022

Introduction. This study aims to compare the effects of similar calorie-restricted intermittent overnight fasting diet (OFD) and frequent-meal diet (FMD) on body composition and insulin, leptin, and ghrelin levels in overweight women. Materials and Methods: While the FMD was administered as six mealtimes, the OFD was administered as five mealtimes and at least 12 hours overnight fasting for four weeks. Some parameters regarding the metabolic rate and fat metabo-lism (glucose, insulin, HOMA-IR, leptin, ghrelin levels), body composition, resting metabolic rate, and physical activity level were measured before and after the diet. Results: There was no sig-nificant difference in the resting metabolic rate (kcal) and fat-carbohydrate oxidation (g/min), while diet programs showed a similar significant improvement in body composition in both groups (p < 0.05). The glucose and insulin levels in OFD and the insulin level and the insulin re-sistance index in FMD significantly decreased (p < 0.05). There were significant differences in the leptin (-37%) and ghrelin (5.8%) levels in FMD, but only a significant decrease in the leptin level (-49%) was observed in OFD. Conclusions: After a 4-week same calorie-restricted FMD with six meals and OFD with a 12 hour-overnight fasting, similar improvements in the body composition and the insulin, leptin, and ghrelin levels have been achieved.

Published: April 2022

Este artículo caracteriza los temas de investigación en la literatura en torno a la convergencia tecnológica a escala global, en Argentina y en México, además de analizar el lugar de este concepto en documentos rectores de la política de ciencia y tecnología en estos dos países, así como iniciativas que impulsan dicha convergencia. Los resultados muestran asimetrías entre los dos países y conexiones globales, así como un uso del concepto en la política de ciencia y tecnología basado en las promesas y las potencialidades de las tecnologías emergentes. Los autores concluyen que para entender mejor estos procesos sociotécnicos, se requiere un nuevo abordaje que parta de los imaginarios sociotécnicos, entre otros aspectos determinantes.
Stem solidness as an important factor for wheat protection from European wheat stem sawfly (Cephus pygmaeus L.) in Altai
Authors: Lepekhov S. B. , Petin V. A. , Chebatareva M. V.
Published: April 2022

Background. European wheat stem sawfly (Cephus pygmaeus L.) is the main pest of wheat in Altai Territory, Russia. Resistance of host plants to this insect is based on a solid stem. The effect of a solid stem on the infestation of wheat stem sawfly larvae and on agronomic traits of spring bread wheat under the conditions of Altai Territory has not been studied.Materials and methods. The study was conducted on the experimental field of the Federal Altai Scientific Centre of Agro-BioTechnologies, Barnaul, Russia, in 2019–2021. The index of stem solidness was assessed according to a 20 point scale. The interplay between stem solidness and wheat stem sawfly larvae infestation of wheat plants was studied on 12 genotypes. The effect of stem solidness on agronomic traits was studied on 6 pairs of sister lines. One hundred cultivars were studied for the stem solidness index and 184 cultivars were tested for their resistance to wheat stem sawfly.Results. Stem solidness negatively correlated with wheat stem sawfly infestation (Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient was rs  = –0.77 in 2019 and rs  = –0.80 in 2020). Sister lines with a solid stem had significantly shorter plant height (–5 cm), less kernels per spikelet (–0.11 kernels), 1000 grain weight (–1.7 g) and grain weight per spike (–0.08 g), but higher grain weight per tiller spike (+0.11 g), compared to sister lines with a hollow stem averaged over two years. Stem solidness had no negative effect on yield or grain quality. Eleven cultivars with a solid stem index higher than 15 points were identified (‘Ershovskaya 33’, ‘Izera’, ‘Kvintus’, ‘KWS Akvilon’, ‘Tybalt’, ‘Cunningham’, ‘KW 240-3-13’, ‘KWS 3.13’, ‘Lillian’, ‘Sparrow’, ‘WW-4’).Conclusion. Stem solidness significantly decreases the damage from wheat stem sawfly and has no negative effect on yield or gluten and protein content in grain. The abovementioned cultivars with a solid stem are recommended for use in breeding for resistance to wheat stem sawfly.
