Meter el cuerpo, activar el archivo: revisión de las artes vivas en Venezuela desde la teoría de los afectos
Authors: Vargas Vanessa
Published: December 2024

El texto a continuación se ubica en el proceso de investigación de documentos materiales e inmateriales de las artes vivas en Venezuela entre 1962 y 1999, con la pregunta acerca de la dimensión afectiva de la danza y la performance en este país, a partir de aquello que enuncia desde su memoria documental. Cuatro conceptos son claves aquí: afecto, movimiento, comunicación y archivo. Conectaré estas nociones para abrirle espacio a las artes vivas en el campo de los estudios de la comunicación: como lugar de generación, circulación de otras narrativas, difusión de cultura, e interpretación de la realidad. Acudí a la revisión de imágenes, material periodístico, coreografías, partituras de danza desde la investigación interdisciplinaria; por una parte, a través del estudio documental, los estudios de performance; y por la otra, de la investigación autoetnográfica en la danza, la exploración archivos utilizando herramientas propias de los estudios en la práctica de las artes vivas: sesiones de improvisación y anotaciones posteriores, e iteraciones de movimientos y coreografías. La memoria afectiva contenida en los archivos de las artes vivas en Venezuela tiene potencial comunicativo: los afectos aquí son claramente transmisibles, pero especialmente son una forma de pensar, generar conocimiento, comunicar su tiempo, y reconfigurar el presente y el futuro.

Published: December 2024

The study aims to explore the role of artificial intelligence in enhancing the efficiency of public relations practitioners in Jordanian telecommunication companies. This study belongs to the category of descriptive research and adopted a survey methodology. The study surveyed (86) individuals representing the community of public relations practitioners and customer service personnel in the Jordanian telecommunication companies Zain and Orange.The study findings revealed that less experienced public relations personnel in Zain and Orange, with less than five years of experience, exhibit greater acceptance and enthusiasm for using artificial intelligence applications compared to their more experienced counterparts. The study also indicated that most public relations practitioners in Zain and Orange perceive artificial intelligence applications to have a moderate to significant contribution to achieving public relations functions and enhancing their work, reflecting technological advancement and the need to adapt to rapid changes in the business environment. Moreover, the study also discussed the limits, including that artificial intelligence can analyze large amounts of data related to the market and the audience, which provides further research and study.
Auxílio-aluguel: rompendo com os grilhões do patriarcado
Authors: Saiboth Amanda , Ningeliski Adriane de Oliveira
Published: December 2024

Este artigo tem como intuito apresentar o auxílio-aluguel, nova garantia ao direito das mulheres que sofreram violência doméstica, acrescido a Lei Maria da Penha (Lei n. 11.340/2006), que possui como finalidade conceder à mulher valor pecuniário após a denúncia e afastamento do agressor do lar, garantindo-lhe a subsistência em casos de que a mulher era economicamente dependente do companheiro. O problema que este artigo busca questionar é se o auxílio-aluguel previsto na Lei n. 11.340/06 é uma forma de libertar a mulher do patriarcado. O objetivo geral é analisar o auxílio-aluguel para as vítimas de violência doméstica como forma de liberar a mulher do patriarcado. Desta forma, têm-se os objetivos específicos, que buscam analisar a perspectiva do patriarcado; abordar a Lei Maria da Penha, seus fundamentos e preocupações e, por fim, compreender a importância do auxílio-aluguel como forma de autonomia às mulheres vítimas de violência doméstica. A metodologia de abordagem adotada é dedutiva, porque se parte da premissa que o auxílio-aluguel pode conceder autonomia à mulher que permaneceria no ciclo da violência em razão da vulnerabilidade econômica, por meio de pesquisas bibliográficas sobre o tema, além de entendimentos jurisprudenciais e legislação específica, possuindo como recorte geográfico o Brasil. Pode-se concluir que o benefício do auxílio-aluguel à vítima de violência doméstica surgiu como uma forma de ruptura ao patriarcado e a propagação de violência, vez que a partir de sua instituição, as mulheres que dependiam financeiramente de seus companheiros passarão a receber auxílio para se manterem longe de seus agressores.
A análise das ADI'S 6.298, 6.299, 6.300 e 6.305 e a inserção do juiz das garantias sob a ótica da literatura machadiana
Authors: Gerhardt Kássia Fiorese Rech , Rockemback Ana Claudia
Published: December 2024

O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar a constitucionalidade formal da Lei nº 13.964/2019, conhecida como "Pacote Anticrime", que introduziu o juiz das garantias, figura judicial responsável pelo controle da legalidade dos atos de investigação criminal. Paralelamente, a pesquisa trará a síndrome de Dom Casmurro como analogia para destacar a importância de um julgamento justo e imparcial, garantindo os direitos fundamentais dos investigados. Com o advento da lei, foram propostas Ações Diretas de Inconstitucionalidade buscando o reconhecimento da incompatibilidade de alguns institutos com a ordem jurídica brasileira. A pesquisa seguiu o método dedutivo típico da pesquisa jurídica, baseando-se em revisão bibliográfica e análise documental. Portanto, o estudo se concentra nos fundamentos que legitimam a constitucionalidade do juiz das garantias, em consonância com o pacto federativo e a garantia do juiz natural e imparcial. Os resultados indicam que a síndrome mencionada deve ser excluída do Código de Processo Penal, pois a justiça criminal requer evidências concretas e respeito aos direitos de todas as partes. Condenações baseadas apenas em suspeitas ou convicções pessoais seriam injustas e ineficazes. Conclui-se que o Juiz das Garantias desempenha um papel crucial na prevenção dessa síndrome, ao separar fases e funções, promover o contraditório e fortalecer a imparcialidade. Isso contribui para um ambiente jurídico mais justo, fundamentado em evidências e argumentos, reduzindo o risco de imparcialidade e interpretações tendenciosas.

Authors: Ayanwale Musa Adekunle , Chere-Masopha Julia , Mochekele Mapulane , Morena Malebohang Catherine
Published: December 2024

We examine the feasibility of implementing Computer Adaptive Testing (CAT) for high-stakes assessments in Lesotho, specifically through the Examination Council of Lesotho (ECoL). CAT, a cutting-edge testing method, enhances precision and efficiency by adjusting test items in real-time based on an examinee's ability. While CAT has gained widespread global adoption, its implementation in developing countries presents significant challenges, particularly regarding infrastructure, expertise, and resource limitations. Our research addresses a critical gap in understanding how CAT can be effectively integrated into educational systems in developing contexts such as Lesotho. We conducted a literature review across five databases—Google Scholar, ERIC, PsycINFO, JSTOR, and PubMed—retrieving 48 studies published between 2013 and 2023. Of these, 18 studies met our inclusion criteria, focusing on CAT's advantages, challenges, and real-world applications in educational assessments. We applied thematic analysis to identify key benefits and barriers, focusing on precision, fairness, and infrastructure requirements. We outline the essential stages of CAT development, including feasibility studies, item bank creation, pretesting and calibration, specification determination, and live CAT publication. We highlight critical tasks such as using Monte Carlo simulations to validate CAT feasibility and developing a robust item bank calibrated with Item Response Theory (IRT). We also address challenges like building a robust technological infrastructure, providing comprehensive stakeholder training, and securing adequate funding. We emphasize the importance of continuous evaluation and stakeholder engagement to ensure CAT's successful implementation and sustainability. Global trends indicate growing adoption, driven by advancements in psychometrics and technology. CAT has the potential to offer more equitable and accurate assessments, making it a promising solution to improve educational outcomes in Lesotho.
Artificial Intelligence in Education, Bridging Community Gap: A Phenomenological Approach
Authors: Opesemowo Oluwaseyi
Published: December 2024

Integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education holds transformative potential for bridging community gaps, particularly in under-resourced and marginalized communities. This study explores the multifaceted ways AI technologies can enhance educational accessibility, quality, and equity, thereby fostering inclusive community development. The educational disparity between under-resourced and resourced communities in Nigeria is a pressing issue, primarily driven by unequal funding, insecurity, corruption, resource allocation, and teacher shortages. This gap affects academic performance and limits future opportunities for learners in the under-sourced communities. The study delves into AI-driven initiatives to reduce the digital divide, such as deploying AI-powered educational tools in underserved communities with limited access to quality education, which is imminent. By leveraging AI, this research underscores the potential to democratize education, offering tailored learning experiences that can adapt to students' diverse needs across different geographical locations in Nigeria. The study's core objective is to bridge the community gap via AI in education using a phenomenological approach. The qualitative study adopted a phenomenological approach. The population comprised all secondary school teachers in Nigeria. Fifteen public school teachers from under-resourced communities constituted the study's sample and drew purposively based on availability. The qualitative data were thematically evaluated, and three themes (i.e., learning assistance, quality education, and infrastructural deficiency) emerged from the research. This study's findings indicate that AI can provide learning assistance and improve quality education. While AI may potentially enhance learning experiences, stakeholders must quickly address the concerns about infrastructural deficiency, insecurity, corruption, and the impediment of social interaction in education. The study concluded that incorporating AI-based technology into under-resourced communities will bridge the community gap and enable all learners to compete favourably, regardless of where they reside.

Spatio-temporal analysis and risk management of forest fires (West Algerian region)
Authors: Benbakkar Hadj Ali , Souidi Zahira , Kattar Salim , Bento Gonçalves António José
Published: December 2024

The forest fires constitute a major danger for the forests in the Western Algerian region. They are caused by a combination of several factors, particularly climatic and anthropogenic, which are often amplified by the composition of vegetation that is considered highly flammable during the dry season. The priority for action to deal with this phenomenon is to strengthen monitoring resources and apply preventive silvicultural measures to avoid the outbreak of fires, without forgetting efforts to educate and raise public awareness. A systematic examination of data retrieved from the General Forests Directorate of Forest Fires stretching between 2003 and 2017 reveals the spatiotemporal, spatial and temporal evolution of fires in the Western Algerian region. The statistical approach applied in this study allowed us to identify the periods in which our forests are mostly vulnerable to fires, allowing the programing of an action plan for an effective forest fire management.

The fire danger map produced by calculating the Fire Danger Index can be a decision-support tool for forest managers to locate areas at high risk in order to take preventive measures to limit the loss of natural resources, properties, and even human lives.
Fees for Providing Information in the Age of Digitalization
Authors: Janderová Jana
Published: December 2024

The article examines the principle of transparency as a cornerstone of the rule of law and a deterrent to power misuse. Effective and efficient means must be used to ensure access to government information. However, under EU and Czech law, persons legally bound to provide information are entitled to request reimbursements of their costs. Such fees may be requested in an amount specified by law, namely for excessive information search which usually form the most significant part of the fees charged. Contrarily, the Tromsø Convention does not allow for reimbursement of extensive search. This article investigates whether these fees impede access to information. The Czech Supreme Administrative Court’s and Constitutional Court’s case law defining the conditions under which reimbursement of costs may be requested is analysed. Further, current administrative practice of ministries and regional authorities is compared, highlighting considerable disparities in their fee schedules. The article scrutinizes the amount of fees collected, which is rather insignificant and posits that the principle of effectiveness, which initially justified these charges, has been superseded in the digital age. The research, which has both national and EU-wide implications, concludes that it would be beneficial to abolish all fees. This recommendation also applies to other countries with a similar approach to information access. The findings of this research offer valuable insights for both the scientific community and practical applications in the field of law.

Published: December 2024

The civil service in the Republic of Kazakhstan is undergoing significant transformations in response to emerging demands and challenges. This study investigates the factors influencing civil service development effectiveness, focusing on both internal and external comparative analyses. We identify critical determinants shaping the civil service system, utilizing secondary data and expert interviews (N=24). Key findings highlight that political will is essential for fostering a modern civil service aligned with fundamental principles of transparency, accountability, and efficiency. Despite some progress in anti-corruption measures and regulatory quality, obstacles still need to be addressed, including a lack of transparency in processes and issues related to employee remuneration and work conditions. Furthermore, political stability and social factors, such as the professionalization of the civil service and the attractiveness of public sector careers, significantly impact reform outcomes. Economic considerations, including wage disparities and budgetary constraints, also play a crucial role. Finally, technological advancements present opportunities and challenges, particularly in digital transformation and e-government initiatives. This study emphasizes the need for comprehensive strategies that address these diverse factors to enhance the effectiveness and resilience of Kazakhstan’s civil service.
The Acceptance of Nudges to Encourage HEI Students to Graduate: A Comparative Study
Authors: Kovács Radek , Klunin Artsiom , Korečková Jana , Sloboda Matúš
Published: December 2024

The study aims to shed light on the acceptance of nudges to encourage HEI students to graduate successfully and to prevent drop-out. The example of two Central European countries with significantly high drop-out rates examines the acceptance of high- and low-touch nudges. The nudges were classified as high-touch or low-touch based on the potential costs of the intervention and whether the intervention involved in-person interaction. The results show that the general acceptance of proposed nudges is similarly high, whereby high-touch nudges are more popular than low-touch ones in both countries. Further, high-touch nudges have a significantly higher level of acceptance. The findings suggest that a communication form (text messaging, email, face-to-face interaction) can influence the acceptance level of the pro-graduation nudge.
Western Sanctions Evasion through Third Countries: The Case of Sanctioned Cars Re-export to Russia
Authors: Partsvaniya Vakhtang , Pirveli Erekle
Published: December 2024

This paper investigates the role of third countries in circumventing Western sanctions on Russia amidst the geopolitical tensions following its 2022 invasion of Ukraine. We use car export/import data from January 2018 to June 2024 and apply the gravity model of international trade, adjusted with the difference-in-differences estimation technique. Our empirical results suggest that the introduction of secondary sanctions targeting third countries led to a significant decrease in the volume of cars directly re-exported from the Western-oriented third country of Georgia to Russia, but concurrently caused a significant increase in the volume of cars re-exported from Georgia to third countries such as Armenia, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan, which share a common trade bloc with Russia. These findings raise questions about the effectiveness of Western sanctions, as the sanctioned goods ultimately reach the sanctioned country through indirect and extended channels involving its trade bloc partners. This study provides valuable insights into circumvention strategies and suppression mechanisms, with implications for third countries and global sanctions enforcement. The existing trade patterns jeopardize the strategic alignment of countries like Georgia with the EU and expose them to the risks of secondary sanctions.
Efficiency and Fairness in Financing Slovak National Sports Associations
Authors: Zimková Emília , Kučera Jozef
Published: December 2024

National sports associations are private-sector sports organisations with an exclusive, monopoly position for a particular type of sport within individual countries. This monopoly position is done by the internal regulations of international sports associations, of which only one entity for a given country can become a member, which its country represents at the international level. The legislation of individual countries also regulates National sports associations. The main aim of this contribution is to assess and benchmark the technical efficiency of 70 sports associations offering their services in Slovakia by a set of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) models and to consider fairness in the financing of Slovak national sports associations. It is important to note that all models used have different premises in their modelling, each of them solves optimisation problems of real live under specific conditions. The arguments for evaluating fairness in financing are based on the methodology of the breakdown of financial subsidies for sport and on controlled interviews with experts of the state administration and national sports associations. Based on our analysis, we can state that the system of financing Slovak national sports associations is neither efficient nor fair in the redistribution of public funds from the point of view of meeting the goals of public policy in the field of sport. The outcome of the research may be of interest to regulatory institutions, as well as to the management of individual national sports associations.

Published: December 2024

Information and communication technology should be integrated into the learning process to enhance the quality of education. One of the technologies that can be utilized is Augmented Reality (AR). AR media can help students learn complex concepts through interactive 3D visualizations of science topics. In the study, a science learning media based on mobile Augmented Reality (AR) technology was developed using the 4-D model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate). This study aimed to validate the feasibility and practicality of mobile augmented reality (AR) based science learning media. Lecturers, teachers, and students tested the feasibility and practicality of the media. The media validation test conducted by two lecturers resulted in a score of 92.26%, while the subject matter validation test by lecturers and students yielded a score of 97.84%. The developed AR media was also classified as highly practical, with the teacher and student questionnaires scoring 91.07% and 88.33%, respectively. The validity assessments of this AR media indicate that both the media and the subject matter fall into the "Highly Feasible" and "Highly Practical" categories for use as science learning media in elementary schools. The student’s response to using this media in learning is very good. Students are enthusiastic about participating in learning and enhancing their curiosity.

Published: December 2024

The water quality of drilled wells in the tourist area of Bantayan village, North Aceh, has been carried out. This study aims to find out how suitable the water from the drilled well is for use by the community in the area. Samples were taken from five water sources of drilled wells with a depth of 3.5 m located in Bantayan village. The feasibility of water consumption can be assessed by testing the quality based on microbiological, physical, and chemical parameters. The parameters measured were color, turbidity, odor (physics), heavy metal content pH (chemical), and bacterial content (microbiology). The measurement results showed that although almost all water samples had water quality that met the standards based on physical and chemical parameters, the water sourced from the five borewells did not meet the standards of biological tests. Testing revealed the presence of total coliform and Escherichia coli (E. coli) ranging from 8-370 CFU/100 mL and 0-150 CFU/100mL, respectively. According to the requirements of the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia No. 2/MENKES/2023 concerning drinking water quality, the acceptable levels for total coliform and E. coli in drinking water are 0 CFU/100mL. Therefore, the presence of these contaminants in the drilled well water renders it unsuitable for consumption, posing potential health risks to the community.

A Tauberian theorem for the logarithmic summability in ordered spaces
Authors: Önder Şentürk Zerrin
Published: December 2024

The present manuscript aims to extend a Tauberian theorem previously established for the Cesàro and weighted mean summability methods of single sequences in ordered spaces to the logarithmic summability method, also known as the (ℓ,1,1) method, for double sequences. In order to achieve this, we present several Tauberian conditions which address the O_L-oscillatory behavior of a double sequence (s_mn ) with respect to logarithmic summability in certain senses. These conditions facilitate the transition from (ℓ,1,1), (ℓ,1,0), and (ℓ,0,1) summability to P-convergence in ordered spaces.

Every day the amount of text data containing the subjective evaluation of the author is increasing thanks to the Internet. This information is used, for example, by numerous companies to assess the loyalty of their target audience. Due to the incredibly fast growth of the volume of such texts, their manual processing becomes impractical. It is in such situations that automated sentiment analysis is used, which is an actively developing area of natural language processing. We collected a corpus of medical service reviews, on the basis of which three classifiers were trained. We also performed acomparative analysis of the obtained results of the models, which belong to traditional or deep machine learning. Our corpus of texts is public and can be useful for other researchers.
Method for Extracting Multi-Component Terminological Units with Right Definitions from Scientific and Technical Texts
Authors: Butenko Iu. I.
Published: December 2024

The paper proposes a method for extracting Russian-language multicomponent terms with right definitions in their structure. The analysis of modern methods, techniques and software tools for extraction of special terminology is carried out, and on its basis it is shown that they cover terms only with left definitions only. The formal structure of Russian-language multi-component terminological units with right definitions is investigated, where special attention is paid to their grammatical features, which include gender, case, number for Russian language nouns and adjectives. The inexpediencyof applying lemmatisation to all components of a term is substantiated. The correctness of morphological analyzers of Russian texts is analyzed in the aspect of their applicability to the extraction of multi-component terms. The models of five-component terms are given, which became the basis for the development of the method of extraction of Russian-language multicomponent terms with right definitions. The proposed structural models identify the nuclear element, left and right definitions, and grammatical features of the right definition for Russian-language multicomponent terms. The paper also illustrates he differences in the lists of Russian-language candidate terms when using traditional approaches that use lemmatisation at the first stage and the proposed method for extraction of multicomponent terms with right definitions.
Investigation of a Brand: The Identity in Web-based Communication and Perceptions of Akhmadullina Dreams
Authors: Pozhidaeva E. V. , Karamalak О. A.
Published: December 2024

In spite of the growing attention to brand research in recent years, few studies have sought to investigate a brand identity and its web-representation to better understand how it communicates its dispositional characteristics and how it is perceived by customers.

The authors generate new insights and research propositions in a case study of the Russian women’s clothing brand “Akhmadullina Dreams” to provide findings on the brand identity and its contribution to the brand’s success.

In this descriptive study, the Akhmadullina Dreams brand is defined through several analytical stages by using a mixed-method design.

The initial stage involves multi-dimensional brand-related settings analysis [Kotler, 2006]: brand-as-person, brand-asproduct, brand-as-organization, and brand-as-symbol. Discourse and semiotic analyses uncover key brand features and the resemblances of the brand to a cultural concept. The critical discourse analysis determines the key features of web communication and its contribution to the brand identity.

A psycholinguistic associative experiment shows how successful the brand is in maintaining its identity and delivering its primaries to the customers and, on the other hand, the meaning the customers perceive.

The results have significant relevance for those in brand-related spheres: brand creators, content writers, fashion bloggers, linguists, and journalists.
Assessment of the Reliability of Lexical Lists for Automated Evaluation of Proficiency in Russian as a Foreign Language
Authors: Vakhranev A. Y.
Published: December 2024

The assessment of language proficiency plays a crucial role in education, but it often relies on subjective evaluation methods, which can result in bias and inconsistencies in the results. To address this challenge, many researchers advocate for the use of automated and semi-automated assessment methods based on linguistic characteristics of texts. In this study, we explore the applicability of available vocabulary lists as tools for automatically evaluating the proficiency levels of students learning Russian.

There exist several types of lexical lists, including frequency-based word lists and minimum vocabulary lists. In this research, we analyze four popular Russian-language lexical lists commonly employed in education and lexical knowledge analysis. We hypothesize that texts produced by students assessed at lower language proficiency level will predominantly contain frequently used words and low-level vocabulary items corresponding to the distribution of lexical elements by frequency or language proficiency level represented in these lists. Conversely, students assessed at a higher proficiency level are expected to employ less commonly used and more complex lexical units. By examining the correlation between these resources and student-generated texts, we aim to gain insight into the suitability of using lexical lists for evaluating proficiency in Russian.

For the analysis of correlations between the selected lexical lists and student texts, we employ custom Python scripts. Additionally, we utilize a cluster analysis method known as Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to test the hypothesis that students at the same proficiency level tend to use a similar basic vocabulary with some degree of variation.

This study raises important questions about the effectiveness of using lexical lists for assessing language proficiency. The findings may serve as a foundation for developing more accurate and comprehensive methods for evaluating lexical proficiency among students learning the Russian language.

Исследование было проведено на 32 испытуемых в возрасте 18-24 лет. После записи фоновой ЭЭГ испытуемые получали инструкцию о том, что они получат электрокожное раздражение. Обнаружено отличие реакции бета - и гамма-ритмов на тревожное ожидание: если в первом случае отмечено снижение амплитуды биопотенциалов по сравнению с фоном, то для гамма диапазона значительное его увеличение. Возможно, это связано с тем, что гамма-колебания, отражают процессы обработки когнитивной информации, в то время как бета-частоты активационные процессы.

A study was run on 32 subjects, aged 18-24. After recording of background EEG, the subjects were instructed that they would received electroskin stimulation. The differences in the reactions of beta and gamma rhythms to anxious expectations was revealed. If in the first case a decrease of biopotential amplitudes was obtained, than for gamma band its significant increase was observed. Probably, this difference is related to the fact that gamma waves reflect the processes of cognitive information processes, while beta waves reflect activation processes.

Published: December 2024

Локализацию и клинические особенности односторонней (диссимметричной) и 2х-сторонней (недиссимметричной) внебольничной пневмонии (ВП) изучали у 10890 взрослых обоего пола и 175 детей. Отмечена частотная инвариантность среднедолевой (13-15%) и верхнедолевой локализаций ВП слева (9-11%). У женщин период менопаузы был ассоциирован с резкой правосторонней латерализацией локализации ВП (до 65 - 76%). Недиссимметричная двухсторонняя пневмония (ДВП) показала себя в ряде случаев единым, хотя и развившимся в разных легких патологическим процессом. Повторная ВП топически была «привязана» к локации первичной ВП и совпадала с ней по частотному спектру сегментарных локализаций. Гендерный фактор ассоциировался с энантиоморфно противоположной степенью выраженности системной воспалительной реакции (СВР). Максимальная СВР отмечалась при локализации ВП в часто поражаемых 5 и 10 сегментах, а минимальная – при ВП в редко поражаемых 1, 2, 7 сегментах. Выявлена энантиоморфная «чувствительность» реакции клеток нейтрофильного ряда в отличие от других клеток воспаления. Ковидная ВП топически резко отличалась от обычной недиссимметричной ВП.

ocalization and clinical features of unilateral (dissymmetric) and 2-sided (non-dissymmetric) community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) were studied in 10890 adults of both sexes and 175 children. The frequency invariance of the middle lobe (13-15%) and upper lobe localizations of CAP on the left (9-11%) was noted. In women, the menopause period was associated with a sharp right-sided lateralization of the CAP localization (up to 65–76%). In a number of cases, non-dissymmetric bilateral community-acquired pneumonia (BCAP) proved to be a single pathological process, although it developed in different lungs. The repeated CAP was topically “tied” to the location of the primary CAP and coincided with it in the frequency spectrum of segmental localizations. The gender factor was associated with an enantiomorphically opposite severity of the systemic inflammatory response (SIR). The maximum SIR was noted in the localization of CAP in the frequently affected segments 5 and 10, and the minimum in CAP in the rarely affected segments 1, 2, 7. An enantiomorphic "sensitivity" of the reaction of neutrophilic cells, in contrast to other inflammatory cells, was revealed. Covid CAP topically differed sharply from the usual non-dissymmetric CAP

Задачей исследования было определить параметры пиковой частоты альфа ритма ЭЭГ у лиц с различными показателями темперамента, а также ее динамические характеристики. Обнаружены различия в успешности выполнения заданий у импульсивных (3.2 балла) и самоконтрольных (4.7 баллов) групп. Показана разница мощности альфа колебаний (р=9.5Е-4). У самоконтрольных лиц наблюдается значимое преобладание активности левого полушария, что позволяет им успешно планировать и контролировать поведение [1]. По мере повторения проб у самоконтрольных лиц отмечается постепенное перемещение фокуса активации из передних отделов в затылочные. У импульсивных карты мозга с высокой и низкой активацией фиксировались в случайном порядке, что, повидимому, и определяет непредсказуемость поведения импульсивных лиц.

The aim of the study was to determine the parameters of the peak frequency of the alpha rhythm of the EEG in individuals with different temperament indicators, as well as its dynamic characteristics. Differences in the success of completing tasks were found in impulsive (3.2 points) and self-controlled (4.7 points) groups. The difference in the power of alpha oscillations (p=9.5E-4) is shown. Self-controlled individuals have a significant predominance of left hemisphere activity, which allows them to successfully plan and control behavior [1]. As the samples are repeated in self-controlled individuals, there is a gradual shift in the focus of activation from the anterior to the occipital regions. In impulsive individuals, brain maps with high and low activation were rec

Монреальский когнитивный тест (MoCA) — широко используемый инструмент скрининга для выявления легких когнитивных нарушений и ранних стадий деменции. Целью исследования было выявление церебральных структур, связанных с успешным и неуспешным выполнением теста МоСА у пациентов с хронической ишемией головного мозга (ХИМ). Функциональная магнитно-резонансная томография (фМРТ) в состоянии покоя была проведена 83 пациентам с ХИМ в возрасте от 43 до 87 лет. Паттерны активации мозга сравнивались между пациентами, набравшими высокие (29–30) и низкие (18–22) баллы по тесту MoCA. У пациентов с успешным выполнением MoCA наблюдалась значительно более высокая активация в нескольких областях мозга, включая левую нижнюю теменную дольку, левую верхнюю височную извилину, левую среднюю затылочную извилину, левую угловую извилину, правую островковую кору, правую скорлупу, левую нижнюю теменную дольку, левую орбитофронтальную кору, левую островковую кору, переднюю поясная извилина, верхнюю лобную извилину и левое хвостатое ядро. Эти результаты позволяют предположить, что снижение когнитивных функций при ХИМ связано с дегенерацией структур мозга, участвующих в различных когнитивных областях, оцениваемых с помощью теста MoCA, с одной стороны, а с другой – с развитием заболевания. Сочетание когнитивных оценок с методами нейровизуализации позволяет лучше понять нейронные механизмы когнитивных нарушений при хронических цереброваскулярных заболеваниях.

The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a widely used screening tool to detect mild cognitive impairment and early stages of dementia. The aim of the study was to identify cerebral structures associated with successful and unsuccessful performance of the MoCA test in patients with chronic cerebral ischemia (CCI). Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was performed on 83 patients with CCI aged 43 to 87 years. Brain activation patterns were compared between patients scoring high (29–30) and low (18–22) on the MoCA test. Patients who successfully completed MoCA had significantly higher activation in several brain regions, including the left inferior parietal lobule, left superior temporal gyrus, left middle occipital gyrus, left angular gyrus, right insular cortex, right putamen, left inferior parietal lobule, left orbitofrontal cortex, left insular cortex, anterior cingulate cortex, superior frontal gyrus and left caudate nucleus. These results suggest that cognitive decline in CCI is associated with degeneration of brain structures involved in various cognitive domains assessed by the MoCA test, on the one hand, and with the development of the disease, on the other. Combining cognitive assessments with neuroimaging techniques allows us to better understand the neural mechanisms of cognitive impairment in chronic cerebrovascular diseases.

В работе проведен сравнительный анализ психоэмоциональных особенностей учащихся средней школы. Установлены достоверно значимые различия эмоциональных личностных характеристик между мальчиками и девочками подросткового возраста в зависимости от школьной успеваемости. Найдено, что наилучшие показатели успеваемости наблюдаются у девочек с низкими показателями школьной тревожности, а наихудшие – у школьниц с высокой степенью тревожности. У мальчиков суммарная оценка по всем предметам выше в группе высокой тревожности. Аналогичные соотношения характеризуют своеобразие гендерной зависимости успеваемости и физиологической сопротивляемости стрессу. Показано, что в группе высокой чувствительности к стрессу уровень локальной активности правой височной области достоверно выше, чем при умеренной степени физиологической чувствительности к стрессу. Обнаружено значимое взаимодействие факторов пола и чувствительности к стрессу относительно уровня постоянного потенциала головного мозга (УПП) центральной, правой височной области и УПП, усредненного по всем отведениям, значения которых у девочек выше при низкой, а у мальчиков – при средней степени стрессоустойчивости. В сложной системе регуляции и контроля индивидуальных различий в резистентности к стрессу и склонности к появлению состояния тревоги, связанных со школьной успеваемостью, важную роль играет баланс активности правой височной и центральной областей коры головного мозга.

The work carried out a comparative analysis of the psycho-emotional characteristics of secondary school students. Reliably significant differences in emotional personality characteristics were established between teenage boys and girls depending on school performance. It was found that the best performance indicators are observed among girls with low levels of school anxiety, and the worst - among schoolgirls with a high degree of anxiety. For boys, the total score in all subjects is higher in the high anxiety group. Similar relationships characterize the unique gender dependence of academic performance and physiological resistance to stress. It was shown that in the group of high sensitivity to stress, the level of local activity of the right temporal region was significantly higher than in those with a moderate degree of physiological sensitivity to stress. A significant interaction between the factors of gender and sensitivity to stress was found regarding the DC brain potential (DCBP) of the central, right temporal region and DCBP averaged over all leads, the values of which are higher in girls with a low degree of stress resistance, and in boys – with an average degree of stress resistance. In the complex system of regulation and control of individual differences in resistance to stress and the tendency to develop anxiety associated with school performance, an important role is played by the balance of activity in the right temporal and central areas of the cerebral cortex.

В мясном скотоводстве основная цель за короткий промежуток времени путем интенсивного выращивания получить высокую живую массу скота. В то же время мясо должно иметь превосходные качественные и количественные показатели. С этой целью в последние годы в хозяйствах республики с молочным направлением скотоводства была поставлена цель скрещивать быков мясных пород с малопроизводительными коровами молочных пород. Как известно, пол, возраст, кормление, порода и правильное применение методов скрещивания и факторы, влияющие на продуктивность мяса и молока. Целью наших исследований явилось на основе научных и практических доказательств путем перекрестного скрещивания повысить мясную продуктивность [2,4,11].

Our studies have once again proved that the dynamics of growth and development of purebred (black-and-white and hybrids (Aberdeen Angus x Black-and-White) animals up to 18 months depends on the influence of genotypic features and paratypical factors. Therefore, in the study groups, regardless of the same level of feeding individuals are able to show their positive phenotypic properties. Thus, in order to obtain high-quality meat, it is necessary to cross low-yielding dairy animals with producers of meat breeds in order to obtain hybrids of meat animals. The creation of such herds is of great economic importance.

Бройлеры, полученные от «молодого» родительского стада, нуждаются в создании дополнительных условий для их выращивания. К таким можно отнести использование суперпрестартера в первые дни выращивания. В работе показано эффективное влияние суперпрестартера на продуктивность бройлеров.

Broilers received from the "young" parent herd need to create additional conditions for their growing. These include the use of superprestarter in the first days of growing. The experiment shows the effective influence of superprestarter on the productivity of broilers.
