Las estrategias de comunicación de Foster Associates en Fitzroy Street (1971-1981): Una mirada a la cadena de producción gráfica a través de Birkin Haward, Helmut Jacoby y Jan Kaplicky
Authors: Hernández Gabriel
Published: November 2021

El traslado en 1971 del equipo de Foster Associates a una céntrica oficina en Fitzroy Street motivó una configuración espacial que supuso un reconocimiento y posterior institucionalización del método de ideación transversal, colaborativo y multidisciplinar con el que operaban. En este entorno experimental de creación, alrededor de la mesa de reuniones que constituía el epicentro neurálgico del estudio, emergen una serie de agentes cuyas aportaciones a los procesos de comunicación gráfica están por estudiar. Esta investigación se aproxima al trabajo de Birkin Haward, Helmut Jacoby y Jan Kaplicky, protagonistas de lo que se podría considerar una cadena de producción gráfica, al más puro estilo de la revolución industrial. Mediante los dibujos de estos tres arquitectos podemos desgranar las estrategias para la mediación y comunicación gráfica ‘fosterianas’: tanto a nivel interno del equipo y con clientes/usuarios, como a nivel externo en la proyección en medios editoriales y expositivos.

Informal Economy and Peacebuilding Efforts among Muslim and Christian Communities during Communal Conflicts in Ambon
Authors: Wardani Abellia Anggi
Published: November 2021

Communal conflicts that happened in Ambon, eastern part of Indonesia more than 20 years ago still reserve a lot of lessons to unveil. One of the least discussed issues is the roles of economic exchanges among diverse community members in bringing peace from below. This article tries to capture the interreligious interactions (Muslim and Christian) among buyers and sellers in areas considered as border space during the conflicts from 1999 to 2004. It showcases the intertwin of everyday peacebuilding efforts through trade and the spread of peace messages among those involved in the exchange practices. This research employed qualitative research methods using ethnographic strategy with in-depth interview, observation, and library study. Data was collected from 2016-2019 including 10-month intensive fieldwork. The article discusses that social networks and cultural ties embedded in the economic drivers of trade-related activities arguably set the foundation for everyday peacebuilding. In conclusion, economic transactions allowed interethnic, intervillage, and interreligious interactions to take place, eliminated distrust among the traders, and potentially extended peace message narratives at the micro level such as among family members.
Modernization and Changes in Kiai-Santri Relations in Three Pesantrens in Java
Authors: Machmudi Yon
Published: November 2021

This study focuses on analyzing the changing role of kiai and his influences in pesantren. The decline of kiai’s authority in pesantren, besides being resulted from the changing role of kiai, is caused by social changes outside pesantren. As a result, kiai, who initially served as the agent of change and political reference, is now experiencing some challenges. To analyze such conditions, this study carefully uses the concept of authority and the patron-client relationship between kiai and santri. In this case, the research is carried out in three pesantrens in Java; Pesantren Cidahu Pandeglang, Pesantren Husnul Khotimah Kuningan, and Pesantren Darul Ulum Jombang. Pesantren that has transformed into a modern institution tends to be more resilient, but the influence of kiai toward his santris starts to decrease. Meanwhile, pesantren that remains as a traditional institution has reduced in number, but the influence of kiai toward the santris is still strong. Thus, this study shows that the power of kiai toward santri in modern pesantren has decreased due to modernization and social changes.
Islamization and the Transition of Power in Nusantara According to Kiai Abul Fadhol's Aḥlā al-Musāmarah
Authors: Ashif Fuadi Moh.
Published: November 2021

The discourse on the process of Islamization in Nusantara (Indonesia) still attracts academic attention. This article discusses the history of Islamization in Nusantara as represented by the book of Aḥlā al-Musāmarah written by Kiai Fadhol. He mentions Ten saints (Walisepuluh) as propagators of Islam in Java, adding one to the nine generally known as Walisongo. He also describes that Islam was brought to Nusantara by the scholars (‘ulamā’) from Pasai, who carried da‘wah out through several channels of Islamization. Using the library research method, this article shows no significant difference between the Walisepuluh and the Walisongo characters. The Islamization of Nusantara presented in the book was intensified through the diaspora of kinship marriages, the education of the Pesantren Ampel Denta, which produced a network of students, and the establishment of Demak Kingdom, which strengthened the influence of Islam over the Javanese population.

Published: November 2021

Objective. To invent the concept of new postural pattern formation in the consequence of severe injury of lower extremities associated with the development of «syndrome of posttraumatic diaphyseal deformities of lower extremities». Methods. The classic model of the development of transformation «health–disease», that was initially worked out in 1960th years, has been used to build up a concept of the returning of patient from trauma to relative health. The idea of this approach was to make analogy of regulatory process under the conditions of disease with emergency control insophisticated technical systems of automatic control. The results of instrumental investigation of patients and mathematic modelling was used. Results. In the case of the development of «syndrome of posttraumatic diaphyseal deformities of lower extremities» in addition to decreased muscular strength, joints stiffness and limb lengthening the complex of following complications occurs: anatomical disarrangements in adjusted joints and muscular imbalance. If the deformity development is accompanied by the saved weightbearing function of the limb a compensatory mechanism in length of time and in a process of walking capacity restitution creates new «body scheme» and stereotypes of walking and standing. Inherent program of movement substitutes with acquired one. If the deformity occurs just on one lower extremity the anatomical disarrangements of the whole skeletal system take place: the tiltof pelvis and spine, hip abduction/adduction contracture, varus/valgus deformity in knee joint, the disturbance of weightbearing capacity of feet with different derangements in ankle and subtalar joints (including varus/valgus deformities). The severity of these secondary changes depends upon the value of deformity, general and psychological status of patient. Outcomes. Invented concept of new postural pattern formation in consequence of severe injuryof lower extremities associated with the development of «syndrome of posttraumatic diaphyseal deformities of lower extremities» allows to assess and understand a locomotor behavior of patient and take it into consideration in treatment planning.

Authors: Barkov Barkov , Veretelnik Oleg , Tkachuk Mykola , Tkachuk Mykola А. , Veretelnik Victor
Published: November 2021

Objective. To study the stress-strain state of the elements of the human lumbar spine when we use the transpedicular system, taking into account different angular values of segmental and total lumbar lordosis. Methods. For computer modeling of the stress-strain state of the elements of the human lumbar spine after mono- and polysegmental fixation, the Workbench product was used, and for the construction of parametric three-dimensional geometricmodels — the SolidWorks computer-aided design system was used. 4 groups of decisions were studied, which differed in angular values of segmental and total lumbar lordosis. In each group, 11 models were analyzed that describe the lumbar segments after mono- and polysegmental fixation in various configurations of the sagittal alignment of the lumbar spine. Results. It was found that the maximum stress on the cortical bone is concentrated on the base of the LV in case of the «pathological» intervertebral disc LV–S in the group of patients with hyperlordosis. At polysegmental fixation of the LI – S, there is a redistribution of stress on the cortical bone of all vertebrae, the maximum values of which is present in the bodies of the LV and S vertebrae. And only in the group with hypolordosis this stress is minimal. The maximum stress was always on the overlying intervertebral disc during transpedicularfixation. Significant increasing of cartilage stress in the facet joints of the LIV–LV segment was recorded during fixation of the LV–S segmentin case of hyperlordosis. The maximum stress on the rods was identified in the group of patients with hyperlordosis and polysegmentalfixation of the LI –S, on screws — on LV, LIV, LIII vertebrae during fixation in all groups, except for hypolordosis. Conclusions. Increasing in angular values (hyperlordosis), which describe segmental and total lumbar lordosis, leads to the stress elevation in the fixing elements and structures of the spinal motor segments, and, conversely, a decreasing in angular values (hypolordosis) causes the stress falling.

Authors: Fil Adrian , Valihursky Mykhailo , Dudar Olexandr
Published: November 2021

Total hip arthroplasty is widely spread in all over the world medical practice. Different approaches are used for that procedure. Objective. To analyze the advantages and disadvantages of` «Bikini» approachand compare them to the Harding approach in patients after total hip arthroplasty. Methods. Тhe results of treatment of 108 patients were retrospectively analyzed: 41 patients were operated with «Bikini» approach, 67 — with Harding approach. Total hip implant with ceramic-on-ceramic, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene-on-ceramic, and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene-onmetal movement pair were used, also were used both cemented and cementless types of fixation. Results were evaluated on 14 day and 3 months after the surgery by Harris scale. Results. 14-day of followup the average Harris score value in patients operated with Harding approach were 74.87 points, in patients operated with «Bikini» approach — 80,55 points, on the 3rd month of follow-up period the Harris score was 78.24 and 83.9 respectively. Conclusions. Both evaluated approaches have their own advantages and disadvantages, instruments and surgeon skills requirements. Proper utilization of the «Bikini» and Harding approaches provides good functionalresults in early and late terms. «Bikini» approach requires a larger volume of preoperative preparation. The absence of fascia lata andperiarticular muscles injury due to the «Bikini» approach usage allows reducing of narcotic analgesics prescriptions, intraoperative blood loss and duration of walking with crutches. Good cosmetical scars effects are achieved by the parallelism of skin incision relatively to Langer’s lines. In the early postoperative period the better functional results were marked, early rehabilitation and mild pain syndrome allow to reduce hospital length of stay. The technicalcomplexity of the «Bikini» approach requires operations number more than 30 per year.
SURGICAL TREATMENT OF VALGUS DEFORMITY OF GREAT TOE (LITERATURE REVIEW)
Authors: Prozorovskiy Dmytro
Published: November 2021

The most common manifestation of static deformity of the forefoot is hallux valgus. This symptom complex consists of valgus deviation of the first toe, varus deviation of the first metatarsal bone, and the presence of osteochondral exostosis along the medial surface of the head of the first metatarsal bone. The objective of the work was to determine the most common methods of treatment of hallux valgus and varus deformities of the first metatarsal bone on the basis of the analyzed published literature. Methods. We analyzed publications from the Google search engine, electronic databases PubMed, Google Scholar, archives of specialized journals and other relevant sources of scientific and medical information. Results. Based on the analysis of literary sources, the development of forefoot surgery from the 18th century to the present day was highlighted in the historical aspect. The greatest attention is paid to the use of various osteotomies of the first metatarsal bone for the correction of hallux valgus. In addition, special attention is paid to the developmentof various complications at osteotomies. Conclusions. The problem of surgical correction of hallux valgus is multifaceted and extremely interesting, containing a large number of nuances and hidden complexities. For quite a long time, there has been an improvement in various surgical techniques and methods of fixation. Considering the great variability of the clinical manifestations of hallux valgus, for many years no universal method of treatingthis pathology has been proposed. Therefore, in the future, most likely, individual and differentiated approaches to the choice of one or another method of surgical intervention will be considered, depending on what type of deformity of the forefoot the orthopedisttraumatologist has to meet in his practice.
THE CURRENT STATE OF DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF THE CONGENITAL TIBIA PSEUDOARTHROSIS
Authors: Khmyzov Sergij , Katsalap Yelizaveta
Published: November 2021

Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) is a rare disease that is detected with a frequency of 1 in 140–250,000 newborns. The disease is characterized by a wide range of clinical and radiological signs from progressive antecurvature deformation of the tibia to nonunion with a significant bone defect. Changes in the CPT area are caused by the influence of pathologically altered periosteum, which forms a fibrous hamartoma and is responsible for the deformityof the biomechanical properties of bone tissue. CPT can be formed at the moment of birth or developed spontaneously or as a result of minimal trauma in the early years. The main method of treatment of CPT is a surgery. Nowadays a number of surgical techniques, which are actively used and improved by specialists in the world, has been developed, The most used methods are the Ilizarovʼs method, application of intramedullary fixators, techniques with the use of vascularized tibial autograft, «induced membrane» technique. However, there are a few studies on comparing the effectiveness of different techniques or metal fixatives, most of them are presented in the format of a retrospective analysis of clinical cases series. This is due to the rarity of the disease and the lack of unified approaches on the choice of surgical treatment techniques. The main aim of surgical treatment of CPT is to achieveconsolidation in the area of pseudoarthrosis, which may restore the limb resistance. The part of primary consolidation of CPT after using the surgical treatment various techniques varies very much, range from 60 to 100 %. The percentage of children with CPT tibial amputations has decreased significantly over the past 30 years, which generally indicates an improvement of the results of surgical treatment of the mentioned pathology. However, CPT still remains one of the most difficult diseases of pediatric orthopedics due to the large number of unsatisfactory results and complications after surgery.
Cartoon Image of the Mother, Its Perception by Elementary School Students and Correction in the Process of Media Education

Published: November 2021

This article presents a psychological study of the mother image projected in cartoons and its perception by elementary school students. The research provides evidence for the importance of an integral approach to the analysis of media texts addressed to children, as well as for the necessity of considering their narrative, verbal, and descriptive components. A psychological analysis was conducted on the material of three cartoons: “Chunya” (USSR), “Barboskiny” [The Barkers] (Russia), and “Peppa Pig” (UK). Hypotheses were formulated about the potential influence of the cartoons on the younger audience. 70 elementary school students (ꭓ̅ = 9.5 years old) took part in the study. The research was conducted using the method of semantic differential; the data obtained were processed using factor analysis. The results show that the categorization of images follows the factors of “education”, “love”, “patience”, and “respect”. Differences in the semantic assessment of the cartoons under study are presented. Children perceive the events taking place in a cartoon directly, without reflection. Artistic mediation—polysemy, metaphors, and the category of the comic—does not evoke an aesthetic reaction in children, as assumed by the authors. It was found that the semantic assessment of the word “mother” by elementary school students did not agree with the traditional cultural status of a mother. Thus, the respondents ranked such indicators as “understanding” and “prestige” at a low level. A developmental experiment was conducted to correct the mother image as perceived by elementary school students. During the experimental program (8 lessons in total), the schoolchildren watched and discussed the cartoons together with a psychologist. At the end of the experiment, the semantic assessment of the verbal stimulus “mom” by the respondents showed a statistically significantly increase (р≤0.05) in the indicators of “understanding” and “prestige”.
Informal Sperm Donation in Russia
Authors: Polyakova Irina G.
Published: November 2021

Rising infertility across the globe has created a growing demand for assisted reproductive technologies (ART). In recent years, apart from sperm donation in formal settings such as fertility clinics, informal donation practices have emerged and spread across Russia. These reproductive donation practices have become possible due to the development of social networks and private online platforms. We conducted a pilot study (eleven semi-structured interviews) of the informal sperm donation in Russia and analyzed donor-recipient interactions, donors’ expectations and experiences of finding recipients online. We focus on donors' motivations and on the meanings, which donors invest in this practice that consumes significant resources on their part (medical tests and artificial insemination costs, travel and accommodation expenses, sometimes mutually agreed financial support of future offspring). We interpreted the practices that coalesced around informal donation from the perspective of symbolic interactionism, because it allowed us to showcase how actors reflected on and formulated the meanings of their actions in the absence of externally imposed rules (legal regulations, established moral conventions). Since informal donation practices do not fit into the traditional schemes of interpretation, such research requires the actors involved in informal donation either to create their own schemes or to modify the existing conceptual frames in creative ways. The study shows that informal donors do not only provide their genetic material but also spend time and invested considerable resources to ensure their procreation, including eventual financial support of the child. At the same time, these men are not interested in marital relations or paternal relations with their offspring. Thus, the informal sperm donors do not associate the parental project with traditional family and its values. We conclude that ART engendered a new phenomenon, which might be described as extramarital reproduction. Assisted reproduction outside marriage ­gains footing in Russia and requires more detailed further study.
Forest in the Context of Social Change: Traditional Orientation and Forest Mystification in a Nigerian Forest-Reserve Setting

Published: November 2021

This article exposits the mystification of forests among people residing in proximity to a forest reserve in southwestern Nigeria. The theory of material engagement and the ecology of human development support the position that the forest is a classical motivator of traditional culture. Still, socio-cultural change is prevalent. As an element of this change, forest-based social cognition warrants systematic examination in the interest of environmental sustainability. This is because the concurrent conveyance of sustainability-promoting immaterial culture across generations is a component of the pathway to a sustainable future. Moreover, systems theory posits that social events affect each other. Since social change is not solitary but encompassing, forest mystification was examined along with other indicators of traditional orientation including attitude towards―religion, ageing, gender; and cultural enthusiasm. The results indicate that forest mystification is still huge and connected with orientations towards ageing and cultural enthusiasm. This exemplifies the Yorùbá social context’s manifestation of continuity as opposed to change in forest culture; and stands in solidarity with traditional African mentality.

ABSTRACT Objective To identify and analyze the weaknesses of the nurse's practice in meeting spontaneous demands in primary care units in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Method Qualitative study carried out in Rio de Janeiro, in 2016, with 20 nurses recruited unintentionally. The focus group and simple observation were applied, and data were subjected to thematic content analysis. Results The spontaneous demand service causes tensions and work overload. Nurses and community health agents are primarily responsible for organizing access. Final considerations There was a lack of understanding of the practice of spontaneous demand as part of care management, in addition to a polysemy related to the term. While for some, welcoming practices means greater autonomy, incorporating a larger scope of actions related to care and expanding their clinical practice; for others, they represent a stage that precedes medical consultation and a disorganizing element of care.

Structural robustness of an RC pier under repeated earthquakes
Authors: Aloisio Angelo , Pelliciari Matteo , Alaggio Rocco , Nuti Camillo , Fragiacomo Massimo , Briseghella Bruno
Published: November 2021

The seismic resilience of structures and infrastructures is affected by damage accumulation phenomena, mainly related to the type of hysteresis. Specifically, pinching drives the cyclic response of several building materials, such as reinforced concrete and masonry. Structural systems affected by pinching phenomena are prone to exhibit a dramatic increment of their displacement response after multiple cycles (e.g. repeated earthquakes). The authors estimate a reinforced concrete pier's response using truncated incremental dynamic analysis by concatenating three earthquake scenarios. The authors adopted a Bouc–Wen class hysteresis model to simulate the reinforced concrete pier's cyclic response, matching its experimental cyclic response. The current analysis proved that ductility and resistance primarily drive the seismic response after a single earthquake. However, the performance after multiple earthquakes strongly depends on the pinching, degradation and drift accumulation, which are generally neglected in standard design practices.
Enduring Victoria: Iconoclasm and Restoration at the British Embassy in Tehran
Authors: Popoviciu Laura-Maria , Parratt Andrew
Published: November 2021

This article will address curatorial challenges faced by the Government Art Collection in the repatriation, conservation, and selection of a new display for the British ambassador’s residence in Tehran following an attack by Iranian protesters in 2011. Drawing on the authors’ experience, the article will focus primarily on the history of George Hayter’s autograph copy of Queen Victoria’s state portrait of c. 1838–40, commissioned from the artist specifically for the new legation building in 1862–63. It will reconstruct the context of its making, the significance of its presence in nineteenth-century Tehran, its survival, and reinstatement in 2019. While uncovering new archival material that will help to situate this portrait within the wider context of Hayter’s copies of  Victoria’s state portrait and to shed light on his so far unexplored connections with Iran, its examination will also explore what this work conveys about the complex history between Britain and Iran. At a time when the UK is having a profound national conversation about how it wants to engage internationally, can Victoria’s image help to build cultural relations or is it merely a relic of an imperial past?

The article analyzes the uneven loading of the scraper conveyor electric motors. The most common type of multi-motor conveyor is considered here: two-drive, with head and end drives connected through gearboxes and sprockets by an endless chain with scrapers. The simulation results are presented for three variants of com-binations of parameters of electric drives. It has been established that the use of a two-motor variable frequen-cy drive of a scraper conveyor powered by a single frequency converter inevitably entails uneven loading of the electric motors of the head and end drives. To eliminate this disadvantage, it is proposed to supply each electric motor from its own frequency converter. A system of automatic load balancing is proposed. The implementation and the result of the work of the load balancing system are carried out on a model in the Matlab / Simulink system.

Published: November 2021

This study discusses Malaysia’s stand and commitment in its foreign policy in the Israeli-Palestinian conflicts from 1957 to 2014. Malaysia’s foreign policy towards the Israeli-Palestinian conflicts is to prioritise security and stability in West Asia and the Middle East. A more critical aspect of Malaysia’s commitment is the liberation of the Palestinian land from the Zionist regime’s conquest and oppression, strongly supported by the major powers such as the United States and Britain. Although various peace negotiations have been held between Israel and Palestine, such concrete solutions have not been achieved adequately. The objective of this paper is to analyse the role of Malaysia in the Israeli-Palestinian conflicts from 1957 to 2014. This research uses qualitative methodology involving analysis of primary resources such as files, documents, Official Statements of Parliament of Malaysia, speech texts, and newspapers clipping from National Archive Kuala Lumpur and Tun Sri Lanang Library (PTSL). The result of this study proved that Malaysia had played a proactive and consistent role to seek a just and lasting solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflicts.

ESTIMATION OF SPATIAL RELATIONSHIPS OF AVERAGE ANNUAL RIVER RUNOFF WITHIN THE RIGHT BANK OF THE PRIPYAT RIVER
Authors: Moskalenko S.О.
Published: November 2021

Assessment of the spatial relationships of any element of river water flow or meteorological indicators of a certain territory is based on the use of the spatial correlation function. The aim of the presented study is to construct such a function for the average annual water flow of the rivers of the right-bank part of the Pripyat basin and to establish the territorial patterns of its interrelations. The initial data were the series of observations of the average annual water discharges on 11 rivers, which turned out to be representative for further calculations. Checking the series of observations for homogeneity was carried out according to the parametric criteria: t -Student’s and F-Fisher’s at the 5% and 1% significance levels. She showed that the rows are uniform. Only a sequence of average annual water discharges on the river Pripyat near the village of Rechitsa turned out to be heterogeneous according to Fisher’s criterion. Based on the calculations, two matrices were obtained – the correlation matrix of the average annual river water flow and the matrix of distances between the centers of attraction of their basins, on the basis of which the spatial correlation function r = f (L) of the average annual river water flow for the territory of Pripyat within Ukraine was constructed. The largest number of joint years of observations in determining the correlation coefficients was 70 years, the smallest – 52. The resulting regression equation of the spatial correlation function was evaluated for accuracy and homogeneity. This test gave positive results. It was found that the pair correlation coefficients decrease with an increase in the distance between the centers of river basins. Significant spatial relationships of the average annual river flow for the territory of Pripyat within Ukraine with correlation coefficients of more than 0.75 are observed at a distance of up to 100 km between them. Satisfactory territorial correlation with a coefficient ranging from 0.60 to 0.75 – at a distance between them up to 100-150 km. The development can be used for practical purposes in hydrological calculations and forecasts, to optimize the hydrological observation network, etc.

Alexander Sergeevich Mozzhukhin was born on August 27, 1921, in Krasnsodar in a family of an employee. After graduating with honors from high school, A.S. Mozzhukhin became a student at the Kuibyshev Military Medical Academy and completed his medical education with honors at the military faculty of the 2nd Moscow Medical Institute. In 1943, A.S. Mozzhukhin came to the Department of Normal Physiology of S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy, with whom he connected more than 30 years of his life and in which he went from adjunct to head of the department, and scientific secretary of the academic council of the academy. The scientific activity of A.S. Mozzhukhin began in the life-giving atmosphere, which was formed at the department during the leadership of Academician L.A. Orbeli and his closest assistant A.V. Lebedinsky. All scientific activity of A.S. Mozzhukhin is an organic and natural combination of fundamental problems, physiology, psychophysiology, human biology, and practical medicine. The main scientific direction of the Department of Normal Physiology under the leadership of A.S. Mozzhukhin was on the study of the interaction of afferent systems under exposure to extreme stimuli as well as on the study of human functional reserves. In addition, a team examined the physiological cost of pedagogical activity depending on the age, seniority, psychophysical characteristics of teachers, and type of training sessions. A.S. Mozzhukhin investigated the biological effects of ionizing radiation. Together with chemist F.Yu. Rachinsky, he created a radio defense drug RS-1 and became a leading Soviet radiobiologist. A.S. Mozzhukhin created a unique scientific physiological school of the S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy, which scientifically proved that the adaptation process was accompanied by the formation and improvement of a specific system of functional reserves for body adaptation, and the systemic factor was the result of the activity (adaptation). A.S. Mozzhukhin, while working at P.F. Lesgaft Institute of Physical Culture, proved that functional reserves have potentials in changing the functional activity of structural elements of the body and their interaction among themselves to achieve the target result, adapt to physical and psychoemotional loads, as well as the effect of various factors of the external environment on the body. The bright memory of Alexander Sergeyevich Mozzhukhin will forever remain in the hearts of his students and followers.

The results of examination and treatment of 647 patients with endogenous hypercortisolism were studied: pituitary corticotropinoma was detected in 494 (76.4%) patients, corticosteroma and pre corticosteroma of the adrenal gland in 142 (21.9%), bilateral macro-nodular hyperplasia of the adrenal glands of primary adrenal origin-in 11 (1.7%). Differential diagnosis of clinical forms of endogenous hypercortisolism was based on the assessment of the level of adrenocorticotropic hormone and cortisol, both in peripheral blood, and with selective bilateral blood sampling from the adrenal veins and lower stony sinuses, and the study of the nature of samples with 8 mg of dexamethasone. Topical diagnostics consisted in assessing the state of the adrenal glands and pituitary gland during computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging with the use of contrast agents, and the use of special software 3D-Volume Rendering Technique allowed optimizing tactical and technical approaches to performing surgical interventions. Of the operated patients with adrenocorticotropic hormone dependent endogenous hypercortisolism, total removal according to the control magnetic resonance imaging was achieved in 92.3% of cases, subtotal in 7.7%. However, hormonal remission was achieved only in 82.4% of cases. All patients with corticosteroma and pre-corticosteroma of the adrenal gland underwent adrenalectomy: in 6 patients by open method, in 136 patients by endovideosurgical method (in 11 patients by laparoscopic method, in 124 patients by retroperitoneoscopic method, and in 1 patient by thoracoscopic transdiaphragmatic adrenalectomy). In all patients, the operation led to recovery. Patients with benign macronodular hyperplasia of the adrenal glands needed conservative treatment with steroidogenesis blockers. Indications for surgical treatment in the volume of unilateral adrenalectomy occurred only in 2 patients.

This study presented the results of the analysis of existing approaches to the assessment of the severity of lower extremity injuries protected with explosion-proof shoes in case of mine-explosive ammunition explosion. An increasing number of mine explosives are used in modern local wars and armed conflicts. At present, more than 110 million mines are planted and activated. Every year, nearly 10 thousand individuals are killed by explosive demolitions, and more than 20 thousand civilians sustain injuries. The necessity to clear minefields and to destroy located ammunition increases the risks of mine clearance specialists to mine-blast trauma of the lower extremities. To reduce the likelihood of severe trauma in this population, developing effective blast protective equipment, such as anti-mine boots, is necessary. The effectiveness evaluation of protective boots requires special methodology that should comprise relevant methods of mine-blast trauma severity estimation. Mine-blast trauma is a special type of surgical pathology where the injured individual has extremity avulsion or multiple injuries to extremity tissues accompanied by severe impairment of body functions. Almost all available domestic classifications of mine-explosive wounds have a pronounced clinical orientation, and foreign ones have terminologies that are not accepted in Russia and cannot be fully used for assessment purposes. The modified working classification, in the form of a rating scale, showed not only the characteristics of a given blast trauma but also the criteria of trauma severity estimation and feasibility of exposure to blast trauma. The results of the study demonstrated the potential for its use to estimate the protective features of mine clearance specialist boots when exposed to charge explosion, as well as recommendations to include this classification in documenting the science and technology that deal with the general specifications of protective equipment for specialists at the project stage.

The possibility of modifying the existing diagnostic algorithm of latent forms of hormone-active and potentially malignant formations in the adrenal glands using modern methods of laboratory diagnostics and radiation imaging is substantiated. In the clinic of a faculty of surgery and on its clinical base, experience in the examination and treatment of 1457 patients with various formations of the adrenal glands has been accumulated. Among them, 270 (14.9%) patients were selected, in whom precursor hormones of steroidogenesis and metabolites of catecholamines in the blood plasma were specially studied by high-performance liquid chromatography, tumor marker measurement, and three-phase computed tomography with intravenous contrast enhancement. Determination of steroidogenesis precursor hormones and catecholamine metabolites in the blood plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography in combination with traditional methods of laboratory diagnostics, use of computed tomography with intravenous contrast enhancement, construction of multiplanar reconstructions, and postprocessor image processing are the basis of a modified algorithm for verification of latent forms of hormone-active and potentially malignant tumors of the adrenal glands. The implementation of the diagnostic algorithm developed in the clinic made early diagnosis of the subclinical forms of NP neoplasms possible, as well as ensure the implementation of minimally invasive surgical interventions before the development of endocrine and metabolic disorders and consequently prevent the development of intraoperative and postoperative complications, which thereby reduce the duration of rehabilitation and disability of patients with good long-term treatment results and high quality of life.
