Advancements in MADM with college English teaching quality evaluation: Integrating 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic models with prioritized heronian mean techniques
Authors: Lu Meiyan
Published: August 2024

With the continuous development of Internet era, teaching modes are also being innovated and developed, and online and offline blended teaching (OOBT) is one of them, which is mainly achieved by combining OOBT. By combining online and offline teaching modes with college English courses, teachers not only help students cultivate independent learning habits, but also help them think alone and improve their practical skills. This is also true for vocational and technical education, and it can be said that this approach is more relevant. The OOBT evaluation in college English teaching courses is deemed to multiple-attribute decision-making (MADM). In this study, we connected the geometric Heronian mean (GHM) technique and prioritized aggregation (PA) in line with 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic numbers (2TLNNs) to produce the generalized 2TLNN power GHM (G2TLNPGHM) technique. Then, the G2TLNPGHM technique is implemented to process the MADM under 2TLNNs. Finally, the G2TLNPGHM technique is implemented as the numerical example of evaluating the OOBT in college English courses. Some comparative analysis of the impact of parameters are fully addressed.

Published: August 2024

Background: Asymmetric gait patterns are mostly observed in hemiplegic stroke patients. These abnormal gait patterns resulting in abnormal speed, and decreased ability in daily of activity living. Objective: This study aimed to determine the immediate changes in gait parameters and plantar pressure during elevation by wearing an insole on the sound side lower extremity of patients with hemiplegia. Methods: Thirty-six participants were recruited, comprising those with a post-stroke follow-up of ≥3 months and a functional ambulation category score of ≥2. The participants were asked to walk with and without a 1 cm insole in the shoe of their sound side, and the order of wearing or not wearing the insole was randomized. Gait parameters, bilateral gait parameters, and dynamic plantar pressure were measured using the GAITRite Walkway System. Results: Paired t-test was used to examine immediate changes in gait parameters and plantar pressure with and without insoles during walking in the same group. Overall, gait velocity and step length significantly decreased (p < 0.05), whereas step time significantly increased (p < 0.05). The swing phase of the affected sidelower extremities significantly increased (p < 0.05), and the stance phase significantly decreased (p < 0.05). Double-support unloading phase (pre-swing phase) significantly increased (p < 0.05). The changes in plantar pressure were significantly increased in some lateral zones and significantly decreased in the medial zone of the mid-hindfoot, both in terms of pressure per time and peak pressure (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Although this study did not show immediate positive effects on gait parameters and gait cycle, it is expected that sensory input from the sole of the foot through changes in plantar pressure may help improve gait asymmetry and regulate postural symmetry.
Resource prioritization and allocation in fog computing using hybrid optimization
Authors: Karpe Sharmila Patil , SH Brahmananda
Published: August 2024

With the rapid proliferation of IoT devices, the volume of data generated has reached unprecedented levels, necessitating efficient management strategies. Fog computing, complemented by 5G technologies, offers promising solutions to reduce service latency and enhance Quality of Service (QoS). However, allocating resources effectively remains challenging due to factors such as uncertainty, mobility, heterogeneity, and limited resources in fog computing environments. Traditional resource allocation (RA) algorithms often fall short of addressing these complexities. This study proposes a novel approach to RA in fog computing, utilizing a non-linear function to optimize resource allocation. An objective function is introduced, incorporating multi constraints such as resource utilization, service response rate, makespan, migration cost, and communication cost. The methodology emphasizes efficient resource allocation in crucial scenarios, facilitating rapid resource distribution where needed. The novel Coati Integrated Beluga Whale Optimization (CI-BWO) strategy is proposed to achieve optimal resource allocation in fog computing environments. By leveraging CI-BWO, this research aims to overcome the limitations of traditional RA methods and enhance the performance and scalability of fog computing applications. Finally, the superiority of the suggested strategy is assessed by comparison with many existing methods. When the task count is 200, the developed CI-BWO attained less migration cost of around 1.287, while existing models have acquired higher migration costs.

Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND: Military physical fitness tests and standards often lack a scientific basis. Contrary to this traditional-historical precedent, US Air Force researchers use a “Two-Tier” health (Tier 1) and performance (Tier 2) approach to develop evidence-based criterion physical fitness tests, standards, and training. This study specifically and only addresses a physical demands analysis, the first step in a six-step process to develop Tier 2 occupationally specific, operationally relevant physical fitness tests and standards, and training guidance. OBJECTIVE: This study conducted a physical demands analysis to identify and delineate occupationally specific, operationally relevant critical physical tasks for eight physically demanding US Air Force occupational specialties. METHODS: A comprehensive five part physical demands analysis reviewed duty tasks, conducted focus groups, assessed incumbents, observed operational tasks, and interviewed senior leaders to detail critical physical tasks. RESULTS: The physical demands analysis delineated duty tasks to critical physical tasks for Special Tactics (556 to 40), Pararescue (981 to 50), Tactical Air Control (415 to 44), Special Operations Weather (586 to 50), Explosive Ordnance Disposal (1107 to 39), Security Forces (1286 to 25), Fire and Emergency Services (802 to 39), and Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape (1099 to 25). CONCLUSIONS: The study approach proved efficacious for conducting a thorough physical demands analysis to identify and delineate occupationally specific, operationally relevant critical physical tasks for eight US Air Force physically demanding occupations. Critical physical tasks provide basis for the next overall research process step, developing physical task simulations to link to predictive physical fitness tests and training guidance.
Influence of high-carbon wire drawing method on its production efficiency
Authors: Kharitonov V. A. , Zainullin A. I.
Published: August 2024

The issue of improving the production efficiency and competitiveness of high-carbon steel wire, determined by a rational ratio of quality and costs of its production, is an urgent task. The main way to solve it is the development and implementation of an effective technical process, the main elements of which are the technological process and equipment for its realization. Since the middle of the last century, domestic steel wire production has been operating on imported equipment, which significantly hampers the use of modern technological processes. This unfavorable situation has been aggravated at present by the imposition of severe economic sanctions by “unfriendly states”. The way out of this situation in the current production is the improvement of existing and introduction of new methods of wire drawing. According to the original methodology the analysis of the existing at one of the domestic enterprises route of drawing of high-carbon wire rope wire with a diameter of 1.70 mm from wire rod of 5.50 mm with the use of standard single monolithic fibers, twin monolithic fibers, roller fibers, as well as modules including roller and monolithic fibers (combined drawing) was carried out. The obtained results have shown that when using standard fibers, the drawing route should be designed with the minimum possible multiplicity, which will provide on the existing equipment to improve the quality of wire and reduce the cost of its production. The greatest efficiency is provided by the application of combined drawing: twofold reduction of drawing multiplicity, energy saving up to 30%, improvement of wire quality by creating a favorable stress-strain state when deforming the wire first in roller and then in monolithic drawing. In addition, in comparison with the roller fibers, the equipment is simplified and the costs of its purchase and operation are reduced. Recommendations on the directions of increasing the efficiency of production in the conditions of existing production, purchase of new imported and designing of domestic drawing equipment are given

Published: August 2024

These research materials consider the main problems of barrier-free street and road environment in modern conditions.
The importance of studying the main problems and finding their solutions, relying on regulatory documents in order to create a space without barriers, was considered.
The current state of ensuring physical accessibility to infrastructure in cities and settlements is analyzed. It was found that in addition to the lack of accessibility elements, an even bigger problem is their incorrect application.
The necessity of designing the street and road environment and its elements, taking into account the needs of low-mobility population groups, has been determined.
It is necessary to arrange ramps, handrails, etc. on a large number of streets with complex terrain (slopes, stairs, etc.), installation of sound signals, pointers and tactile elements.
As for pedestrian crossings, it is a mandatory requirement to equip them with infrastructure that meets the requirements for people with reduced mobility, namely: ribbed pedestrian crossings, raised crossings, sound traffic lights, etc.
In order to ensure the unhindered movement of people with limited mobility to the railway transport at the exit and entrance, platforms and stops must be adapted, that is, have canopies, seats, tactile elements, information boards, etc. 
Also, pavements and roads should be in good condition, there should be no potholes and high curbs, there should be enough parking spaces to provide parking spaces for personal vehicles of persons with disabilities.
INTANGIBLE CONTEXTS IN THE CONCEPT OF A SMART CITY
Authors: Habrel Mykola , Kosmii Mykhailo , Habrel Mykhailo
Published: August 2024

The expansion of discussions about smart cities, which are currently ‘obsessed’ with information technology capabilities, and the underestimation of cultural aspects, human behaviour, values and social identity, requires the study of urban development to shift from a one-dimensional business model and a number of material metrics to the city as a hyper-complex system. According to the authors, for the concept of smart cities to have methodological value, research and organisation of their life should be aimed at developing uniqueness, spiritual identity, and improving the quality of life both today and in the future. The proposed approach to the development of smart cities, taking into account the intangible nature of their main dimensions, is based on the provisions and use of: 1) knowledge, which is the central link of a smart city and determines the prospects for the development and renewal of their main subsystems; 2) sustainability and environmental orientation of decisions based on real-time data on specific, including intangible, characteristics; 3) mobility (kineticity) of the urban sphere, which is aimed at reducing the problems of movement and providing high-quality and environmentally friendly communication services; 4) integration of new technologies into operations, functions, processes and relations with all interested parties, primarily with the authorities ("smart city" and "smart government" are often used as synonyms); 5) security, which includes systems of intelligent surveillance and protection of citizens from threats, resistance to security violations through the participation of communities and the use of data in real time and their provision to relevant services and residents; 6) smart activity and its connection with competitiveness (innovation, entrepreneurship, intangible assets, productivity and flexibility of the labor market, integration and use of information technologies); 7) focus on cooperation (connections and relations) of interested parties, creation and use of intangible potential to improve the quality of life of citizens and protect the environment (among other things, the use of intelligent sensors, home service of smart networks); 8) intellectualization of waste disposal solutions in households, commercial buildings and public places; 9) healthy city technologies, which are most closely related to the concept of smart life, include life expectancy, quality of health care systems, health programs and technologies, smart care systems and remote monitoring of sick and elderly patients, etc.; 10) culture and tourism — ideas of smart tourism and smart integration of new technologies into the recreational infrastructure to improve the quality and spiritual comfort of life and recreation of the population. Attention to immateriality in the context of "smart" cities will contribute to the justification of new scientific approaches and practical solutions for the harmonization and development of urbanized systems.
DISCRETE-CONTINUOUS PROCESSES AS THE MATHEMATICAL BASIS OF THE RELIABILITY OF THE BEHAVIOR OF SUBSYSTEMS OF THE "DRIVER-VEHICLE-ROAD-ENVIRONMENT" SYSTEM
Authors: Osypov Valentyn
Published: August 2024

The work is devoted to the study of the reliability of the behavior of subsystems of the driver-car-road-environment system. According to the definition of a number of researchers, traffic safety is a complex and system of rules, measures and means that ensure safe traffic conditions, which are aimed at protecting and preserving the life and health of active and passive road users, as well as protecting and preserving the environment and property. Therefore, the question of studying all aspects of the operation of the "Driver-car-road-environment" system becomes acute. The general approach to the formation of reliability models of the B-A-D-S system consists in the fact that this model is described in a formalized form from the standpoint of the reliability of the interaction of subsystems in the process of functioning and reflects the degree of influence of the reliability of individual subsystems on the reliability of the system as a whole. Usually, reliability indicators of system elements (failure intensity) are determined on the basis of the laws of distribution of time of failure-free operation, and the concept of "failure" is clearly defined for each subsystem. Reliability models formed in terms of element failures are the main type of system reliability models. It follows that the set of combinations of possible states of elements determines the set of possible states of the system in general, which is called the space of system states (control theory).
When writing the work, the research of domestic and foreign authors on the issues of the basics of reliability and risk assessment was studied. The purpose of the publication is to study approaches to ensuring the reliability of complex systems. It was determined that for all mechanical elements (car parts, road elements) the most suitable failure model is the DM-distribution, while the estimation of the coefficient of variation can be in the range from 0.3 to 0.7

Published: August 2024

The relevance of the research is stipulated by the need to maximise the involvement of residents in the processes of management and development of the city's territories, which will create a comfortable, convenient and modern urban environment with maximum consideration of the interests and needs of users of the city's infrastructure. The research aims to analyse modern approaches to urban planning, taking into account the needs of the population living in the area, as a component of sustainable development of a modern city, using geoinformation technologies and open geospatial data, such as geotags. These issues are discussed in the context of urban amenities and attractiveness from the point of view of an average resident. To meet the basic needs related to improving the level and comfort of living, it is proposed to divide the territory into vernacular areas. This type of territorial division differs significantly from administrative districts. The research was conducted on the example of a city with a population of over a million people - Kharkiv.
The principles of vernacular area formation within the existing urban territory are defined, and the origin of this concept is considered in retrospect. The relationship between vernacular areas and the population mentality through habitus is considered.

Published: August 2024

In recent years, there has been an active introduction of artificial intelligence in education (AIEd). Recently, one of the most popular AI tools — ChatGPT — is an example of a generative AI technologies, which create new content (different types of text, image, audio, video) in response to a user’s request. On the example of ChatGPT, the article considers the possibilities of using AI in various spheres of educational activity and the ways of increasing its efficiency with the help of generative technologies. To structure the ways of interaction with ChatGPT during its integration into the educational process, the COST model, which describes the receipt and exchange of information in the learning process, is used. In order to utilize the capabilities of ChatGPT more fully and to compensate for its shortcomings, it is necessary to formulate appropriate queries, for example, using a concept tree. In addition, it is necessary to formulate queries in such a way that the concept under investigation is concretized as much as possible. As an example, the article presents fragments of the developed concept tree representing the composition of educational activity and interrelations between its elements, which can be the basis for making queries to a chatbot. The quality of the query response is determined by the completeness of the input information. The results of the research presented in the article will help to get more accurate and relevant answers to queries in the practical application of ChatGPT in the daily work of an educational institution by students and teachers as well as other stakeholders who are involved in the organization of the learning process.

Published: August 2024

In Mexico, heavy traffic with excess loads is the main cause of pavement deterioration, which has influenced the consumption and exploitation of natural resources, thereby affecting road rehabilitation. The use of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) has been presented as a technique to reduce the aforementioned issues, which consists of milling the material of a flexible pavement during its rehabilitation. The objective of this work is to reuse RAP by using the Los Angeles Wearing Machine to recover fine aggregate, using it in a rigid pavement. By means of compressive strength and diametral tension tests, different mixes were evaluated: RAP in washed recovered condition, LAV, and RAP in unwashed recovered condition, SL. A control mix, MC, and the RAP in original condition, CO, were also evaluated. The aggregates of the different mixes were sieved through the No. 8 sieve to later make concrete cylinders of 10 × 20 cm. By means of compressive strength and indirect tension tests, the performance of the materials as a whole was evaluated, not only giving the use of RAP aggregates, but also showing the work in a similar way to the virgin sand aggregates. The results indicate an increase of 3.97 % in compression and 7.3 % in indirect tension with the LAV material.

Published: August 2024

The pre-design of an urban storm drainage network is proposed with an optimization method consisting of two parts: in one part, the connection of the manholes is proposed so that there is little water flow in the pipes; in the other part, it is based on a genetic algorithm to find the lowest cost of acquisition of the pipes and of the excavation necessary for their installation, complying with several hydraulic and constructive restrictions recommended in construction manuals of networks of this type. The described procedure is made from the linking of the pipes that make up the network (network layout) trying to obtain the smallest sum of the lengths. It is considered that the conduits are of circular section, where their diameters only take commercial values. The slope of each pipe in the network is calculated so that the hydraulic depth of the water flow is 80% of the pipe diameter, in order to approximate the flow conduction capacity of the liquid within it. Finally, its application to a real case is demonstrated, and the hydraulic performance of the pre-designed network is evaluated by simulating the non-permanent free surface flow in the network using the EPA-SWMM 5.1.015 model, in order to ensure that the hydraulic restrictions and assumptions made for permanent flow are met.

Published: August 2024

Primary cutaneous adenoid cystic carcinoma (PCACC) is a rare tumor originating within the skin, typically presenting as a solid, gradually enlarging nodule or mass. We report a unique case of recurrent PCACC of the scalp in a 90-year-old male, initially diagnosed in 2010 and managed with surgical excision. Despite initial treatment, the lesion recurred twice, necessitating re-irradiation due to ineligibility for surgical resection at the second recurrence. We discuss the treatment modalities and outcomes of this case, highlighting the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in managing rare malignancies. Our case underscores the feasibility and efficacy of radiotherapy as a palliative treatment option for recurrent PCACC, particularly in patients unsuitable for surgical intervention.
ТРИВОЖНО-ДЕПРЕСИВНІ РОЗЛАДИ ТА ЇХ ВПЛИВ НА МЕНТАЛЬНЕ ЗДОРОВ’Я В УМОВАХ ВІЙНИ

Published: August 2024

В статті розглядається проблема тривожно-депресивних розладів та їх вплив на ментальне здоров’я в умовах війни. Аналіз наукової літератури показує, що тривожно-депресивні розлади в умовах війни набувають необхідність комплексного підходу до діагностики, лікування та профілактики цих станів, враховуючи як зовнішні фактори, так і індивідуальні особливості постраждалих осіб. Основна ідея проблеми тривожно- депресивних розладів та їх вплив на ментальне здоров’я в умовах війни полягає в тому, що воєнні конфлікти створюють екстремальні стресові умови, які викликають хронічний дистрес, що значно підвищує ризик розвитку тривожно-депресивних розладів, які виникають у наслідок неспроможності ефективно адаптуватися до постійних загроз, травматичних подій, та втрат, спричинених війною. Така ситуація не лише погіршує ментальне здоров’я, але й впливає на фізичний стан, соціальні зв’язки та загальну якість життя людини, вимагаючи комплексного підходу до лікування і підтримки. Війна – це екстремальна ситуація, яка виходить за рамки нормального людського досвіду. Люди, які вдалися до вимушеної внутрішньої або зовнішньої міграції, не можуть повністю дистанціюватися від подій, які стосуються їхніх родичів і місця їх постійного проживання. Зовнішні фактори, такі як військові дії, втрата житла, соціальна нестабільність, стають постійними джерелами стресу. Вони підсилюють відчуття безпорадності і безнадійності, які є детермінуючими факторами у розвитку депресивних станів. Невизначеність майбутнього та загроза життю стимулюють хронічний стрес, що у свою чергу підвищує рівень тривоги. Ми визначаємо тривожно-депресивні розлади як неврологічний стан, що характеризується поєднанням симптомів тривоги та депресії, при цьому жоден з них не є настільки вираженим, щоб окремо діагностувати тривожний розлад або депресію. У нашому дослідженні, ментальне здоров’я – це не статичне явище, а процес, що потребує систематичного догляду та уваги за всіма його компонентами: власним емоційним і психологічним станом, включаючи в себе здоровий спосіб життя, правильне харчування, регулярну фізичну активність, а також розвиток позитивних стратегій управління стресом, розвиток психічної стійкості та резилієнтності Війна впливає на всі аспекти життя людини, зокрема на психічне здоров’я, що може призвести до розвитку тривожно-депресивних розладів. Тривожно- депресивні розлади в умовах війни є серйозним психічним станом, що виникає через тривалий вплив стресових факторів, пов’язаних із бойовими діями.

Perangkat jaringan yang telah terpasang terkadang perlu dikonfigurasi ulang agar dapat terus beroperasi dengan baik. Di suatu perusahaan dalam melakukan konfigurasi perangakat jaringan masih menggunakan cara konfigurasi manual. Melakukan konfigurasi manual membutuhkan waktu yang lebih lama jika perangkat yang digunakan dalam jumlah yang cukup banyak serta dapat menimbulkan kompleksitas yang tinggi dan potensi terjadinya human error. Metode yang lebih efisien untuk dapat mengkonfigurasi perangkat-perangkat tersebut secara otomatis yaitu dengan melakukan otomatisasi jaringan. Otomatisasi jaringan merupakan sebuah sistem yang dibuat untuk melakukan konfigurasi ke beberapa router secara bersaaman. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan otomatisasi konfigurasi yang diimplementasi oleh Ansible yang hasilnya diuji pada aplikasi simulasi jaringan atau GNS3. Otomasi konfigurasi diimplementasikan melalui skrip pada Ansible yang dihubungkan dengan router melalui Secure Shell (SSH) sehingga konfigurasi dapat dimasukkan kedalam router. Router yang digunakan pada penelitian ini merupakan router virtual yang dibangun menggunakan GNS3. Hasil dari penelitian ini Ansible telah berhasil digunakan untuk mengotomasi konfigurasi router. Berapapun router yang akan dipasang pada jaringan, router tetap dapat di otomasi hanya dengan menggunakan skrip yang telah dibuat pada Ansible. Penerapan otomasi jaringan ini dapat memudahkan untuk konfigurasi perangkat jaringan dengan skala besar secara otomatis serta dapat meminimalisir human error.

Published: August 2024

Population characteristics were analyzed and specific features of the newly created Ukrainian trotting breed group of horses were revealed. The main conditions for stable preservation of the horse gene pool, risks and opportunities for the newly created Ukrainian trotting breed group are determined. The quantitative composition of the reproductive population of the Ukrainian trotting breed group of horses, which according to the FAO classification is in the status of “in a state of danger”, has been established. The basic population characteristics of the newly created breed group are described. The share of the breed group in the total of trotting horses of Ukraine, which is 37.2%, was determined, the amount of interbreeding improving crossbreeding with the American Standardbred and French trotting breeds was determined, and the expediency of its use was justified. The maximum number of generations in the breed – 11 – was observed in the Scotland line, a branch of Speedy Crown. The use of indicators, one of which is based on the generation interval, and the second is based on the inbreeding coefficient, made it possible to analyze the population and identify specific features of the Ukrainian trotting breed group of horses. The average annual yield of foals and the number of repair young ones were calculated to preserve the gene pool of the breed group at the current level. The generation interval for the breed group was L=11.57±0.98 years. It was determined that the generation interval between sires and their male offsprings is greater than between dams and male offsprings, and the generation interval between dams and female offsprings is greater than between sires and female offsprings. The effective number of the population, according to which the new breed group will develop qualitatively, is 688.2 horses of reproductive age. The increase in the inbreeding coefficient for one generation is ∆F=0.0063, and therefore, to prevent the growth of inbreeding, the increase in the effective size of the population per generation should be 79.4 heads. If the quantitative composition of the breed group does not increase, the population will lose 2.36% of genetic diversity in 10 generations.

The paper presents experimental data on the effect of echinacea extracts on the sowing qualities of medicinal herbs. The biological activity of extracts obtained from the areal part (EAP) and rhizomes with roots (ERS) of pale echinacea was investigated. The object of study was the sowing quality of the seeds of such medicinal plants as blue cornflower (Centaurea cyanus L.), purple echinacea (Echinacea purpurea (L. Moench.), pale echinacea (Echinacea pallida (Nutt.) Nutt.), St. John’s wort (Hypericum perforatum L.), forest mallow (Malva sylvestris L.), which are of industrial importance for medicinal plants. The seeds were soaked in 0.01%-0.0001% solutions of extracts, under the control they were treated with water, after that they were germinated in Petri dishes by generally accepted methods according to the standards. The best results were obtained in mallow seed extracts. The solution of EAP at a concentration of 0.001% increased the energy of germination by 19.2% compared to the control, and when using ERS in all concentrations, a positive effect was obtained (by 18.2 %-23.6% to the control). Germination of variants treated with EAP solutions increased by 1.12-1.21 times, and ERS – by 1.09-1.21 times. Treatment of Echinacea purple seeds with EAP solutions was not effective, but rhizome extract treatment with roots had a positive effect on both germination energy and germination resulting 12.0%-17.3% and 8.3%-9.5% compared to the control, respectively. Similar regularities were observed in variants with the treatment of Echinacea seeds with extracts in different concentrations. The action of EAP solutions did not statistically exceed the control, but when using ERS, the results reliably exceeded the control by 10.8%-13.8% (germination energy) and by 11.0%-17.8% (germination). Treatment of St. John’s wort and cornflower seeds with extracts did not lead to changes in seed quality indicators. A general trend of greater activity of extracts in concentrations of 0.01%-0.001% was observed.

Scientific and industrial research was carried out at the industrial pig farm. The efficiency of industrial crossbreeding of Large White pigs with Landrace and Pietrain meat breeds has been clarified. The reproductive capacity of sows after crossing with boars of different breeds, growth and development and fattening qualities of piglets of different genotypes were studied in a comparative aspect.

Six experimental groups of pigs were formed for the experiment: Group I – purebred Large White breed, Group II – Landrace breed and Group III – Pietrain breed. Groups IV and V included crossbreeds IV – ½ Large White × ½ Landrace and V – ½ Large White × ½ Pietrain, respectively. Group VI is represented by three-breed hybrid animals: ¼ Large White × ¼ Landrace × ½ Pietrain. Such a scheme is due to obtaining crossbreds with high growth energy and good meat qualities.

According to the indicators of growth and development, crossbred piglets had better dynamics during the entire growing period. At the end of fattening, the animals of Groups IV and VI exceeded their purebred contemporaries of the Large White breed in terms of reaching a body weight of 100 kg 10 and 8 days faster.

The best slaughter yield had pigs of Group VI – ¼ Large White × ¼ Landrace × ½ Pietrain. A high indicator had also animals of Group IV – ½ Large White × ½ Landrace.

In general, crossbred pigs obtained from different combinations of breeds ½ Large White × ½ Landrace and ¼ Large White × ¼ Landrace × ½ Pietrain exceeded their peers of purebred origin in terms of reproductive capacity and indicators of growth and development of piglets.

During the research, it was also found that the half-carcass length was better in crossbreeds of the Landrace breed. Landraces also had a positive effect on the index of spigot thickness. The area of the “muscle eye” and the mass of the rear third of the half-carcass were significantly influenced by the Pietrain breed.

The main aim of the present study was to evaluate the oxidative stress biomarkers [TBARS, carbonyl derivatives of oxidative modification of proteins (OMP), total antioxidant capacity (TAC)] in the muscle tissue of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum) after in vitro incubation with the root and stem extracts derived from greater celandine (Chelidonium majus L., CM) (at final concentrations of 5 and 2.5 mg/mL) collected in South Park in Słupsk in the Pomeranian Province (northern part of Poland). The current study demonstrated the increase in TBARS levels after in vitro incubation of rainbow trout muscle tissue with stem and root extracts of CM at a final concentration of 5 mg∙mL-1 compared to untreated control samples. There was a statistically significant increase in TBARS levels compared to controls. We obtained similar results after in vitro incubation with root and stem extracts of CM at a final concentration of 2.5 mg∙mL-1 with rainbow trout muscle tissue, where we also observed a statistically non-significant increase in TBARS levels. There was a decrease in the levels of aldehydic derivatives and ketonic derivatives of OMP in muscle tissue after incubation with extracts from roots and stems of CM at final concentrations of 5 mg∙mL-1 compared to untreated controls. There was a decrease in the levels of aldehydic and ketonic derivatives of OMP in muscle tissue after incubation with extracts from roots and stems of CM at final concentrations of 2.5 mg∙mL-1 compared to untreated controls. TAC levels in rainbow trout muscle tissue after in vitro incubation with extracts of CM roots and stems at final concentrations of 5 and 2.5 mg∙mL-1 were not statistically significantly increased. The present study investigated the antioxidant potential of CM. Extracts from CM roots and stems exert their activity by inhibiting protein damage.

The relevance of the study is due to the lack of data on the cortical mechanisms of regulation of the activity of the antioxidant defense system in the body of dogs. In this regard, this article is aimed at revealing the specifics of the activity of key enzymes of the system of antioxidant protection of the blood of dogs with various types of higher nervous activity under the influence of short-term food deprivation. It was shown that short-term food deprivation in dogs caused a stressful state, which was accompanied not only by a change in the behavior of the animals, but also reflected the state of the enzymatic link of the antioxidant defense system in their body. In particular, a significant effect of short-term food deprivation on the activity of catalase in dog blood erythrocytes was established (F = 13.7 > FU = 4.15; p < 0.001). We note the increase in the influence of the force of nervous processes on the activity of catalase in the blood of dogs during the experiment from – gh²ᵪ = 0.20 (р < 0.05) in the intact state, to the indicator – гх²ᵪ = 0.68 (р < 0.001) by the third day of research. Also, under the influence of food deprivation, direct connections of the strength and balance of nervous processes with the activity of this enzyme appear (r = 0.52–0.78 (р < 0.05–0.001). Under such influence, after one day and three days after the action of the stress factor, the activity of catalase in the blood of dogs with a weak type of higher nervous activity is lower by 3.6–5.8% (P < 0.05) than that of dogs with a strong balanced mobile type of higher nervous activity blood erythrocytes also found a decrease in the activity of the glutathione link of the antioxidant protection system in the blood plasma of dogs, in particular, under the influence of a stress factor, the activity of glutathione reductase during the day in dogs with various types of higher nervous activity decreases by 11.6–16.9%, respectively (р < 0, 05–0.01), the activity of glutathione reductase also decreases. Prospects for further research consist in the development of new methods for the correction of substance metabolism based on the use of nanoaquachelates of biogenic metals, taking into account the individual characteristics of the dog’s body.
