Arte urbano: ¿Portal de Las Américas o Portal Resistencia?
Authors: Duarte Mauricio
Published: July 2024

En este documento se examinan las narrativas visuales realizadas en la estación de transporte del Portal de Las Américas, en Bogotá, durante el Paro Nacional del 28 de abril de 2021. Después de proporcionar el contexto histórico y artístico del paro, se analizan las intervenciones artísticas realizadas en el Portal y su difusión a través de redes sociales como Facebook y Youtube. Se enfatiza en los informes de medios alternativos como La Silla Vacía, Canal Capital y Humana Noticias, así como en un flashmob realizado por la empresa distrital TransMilenio y el conglomerado mediático RCN al interior de la terminal de transporte. Esta investigación parte de un análisis de medios que revela una ciudad polarizada en la cual las narrativas resignifican el espacio público de manera contradictoria. Por un lado, se promueve un Portal artístico y solidario, y por el otro se sugiere un Portal en cual la cohesión social se debe estrictamente a la movilidad y la productividad urbana. En conclusión, las imágenes que surgen del Portal durante el paro reflejan la tensión existente entre las violencias dirigidas hacia los jóvenes dentro de un marco eminentemente racializado y la preocupación por proteger la infraestructura urbana.
Profesionalización decimonónica de la escritura femenina en desacato al mandato masculino: Los tratados de economía doméstica en Catharine Beecher y Josefa Acevedo de Gómez
Authors: Bejarano-Sánchez Mélida
Published: July 2024

Este artículo repasa dos textos decimonónicos de autoría femenina producidos en latitudes distintas del continente americano; A Treatise on Domestic Economy for the Use of Young Ladies at Home, and at School (1841) de Catharine E. Beecher (Estados Unidos) y el Tratado sobre economía doméstica para el uso de las madres de familia y de las amas de casa (1848) de Josefa Acevedo de Gómez (Colombia). El texto expone y analiza formas de resistencia femeninas, contenidas en estos tratados aparentemente plegados al orden patriarcal impuesto que, sin embargo, alientan a sus lectoras femeninas a la emancipación económica y política de sus pares masculinos, ya sea a través de la sensibilización sobre las condiciones de subordinación femeninas de la época, o bien a través del ejercicio mismo del trabajo profesional remunerado de la mujer como escritora.

Cromatismo antropomorfista y estrategia heterodoxa en La camisa, de Lauro Olmo
Authors: N'DRI Amon Paul
Published: July 2024

Como título, La camisa es una micro-estructura estructurante en la cual los intereses y desafíos sociales se ven plasmados. Su estudio no es nada marginal, por cuanto mantiene con la macro-estructura una relación dialéctica. Desde esta perspectiva, el presente artículo ayuda a comprender que el objeto que da nombre a este drama asume la centralidad escénica para vislumbrar el declive de la España franquista. Dentro del marco estrictamente paratextual, “la camisa” es un signo semiótico que comparte con el escenario su poder evocador.

Relapsing Polychondritis Masquerading as Auricular Pseudolymphoma: Case Report and Literature Review
Authors: Yousefian Faraz , Michael Mary , Yadlapati Sujitha , Sedaghat Emily , Glick Brad
Published: July 2024

Relapsing Polychondritis (RP) is a rare autoimmune disease associated with recurring inflammatory episodes predominantly affecting cartilage and other tissues throughout the body, including proteoglycan-rich structures. It is characterized by gradual deformation of tissue that leads to impairment of normal function. Areas involved include, but are not limited to, the respiratory tract, eyes, nose, joints, and vascular system. The inflammation targets cartilage, most commonly causing auricular and nasal chondritis but can involve cartilage throughout the body. Diagnosis of RP is often hindered by the vast variety of symptoms associated with this systemic disease and subtle symptomatology. In this paper, we demonstrate a case of relapsing polychondritis masquerading as pseudolymphoma and review recent literature relating to pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment.
Use of Topical Minocycline for Treatment of Confluent and Reticulated Papillomatosis
Authors: Meledathu Shannon , Nguyen Helen , Husain Zain
Published: July 2024

Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis (CRP) is a rare dermatosis initially that typically affects young adults and is characterized by scaly, hyperpigmented macules or papillomatous papules combining into patches typically involving the upper trunk and neck. Herein, we report two cases of CRP successfully treated with topical minocycline. The most widely accepted treatment of CRP to date is oral minocycline. Due to the chronic nature of CRP, topical minocycline could be considered a better first-line treatment option. This alternative treatment offers the advantage of a targeted, local application for enhanced skin bioavailability and efficacy. This case supports the possibility of topical minocycline use as an alternative to long-term oral antibiotics for treatment of CRP.
Brimonidine-induced punctual eversion: An uncommon adverse effect
Authors: Shah Riya Prakashbhai , Chaudhary Kiran Gagdasbhai , Bhagat Purvi Raj
Published: July 2024

Brimonidine is a highly selective alpha-2 adrenoreceptor agonist which is primarily used to treat glaucoma and ocular hypertension. It has a well-known profile for adverse reactions, the common local ones being periocular dermatitis, allergic conjunctivitis, hyperaemia, and dry eyes. Here, we present two unusual cases of punctal eversion following the administration of brimonidine eye drops. On cessation of the medication, we could haul the progression of the condition. These cases highlight the importance of vigilance on the safety profile of drugs, manifestation of adverse drug reactions, and prompt withdrawal of the offending agent.
Foveolitis with fever: An optical tomography biomarker for dengue maculopathy
Authors: Bhojwani Deepak Narain
Published: July 2024

We report a case of a 25-year-old boy presenting to an ophthalmologist with unilateral foveolitis associated with fever. After a thorough ocular clinical examination and with the aid of the characteristic finding of foveolitis on optical coherence tomography, a probable clinical diagnosis of dengue fever maculopathy secondary to systemic dengue was made. The patient was referred to the physician for systemic management of dengue. On laboratory investigation, the patient was found to be seropositive for dengue virus. The patient was treated with topical and systemic steroids from our end besides receiving general symptomatic care at the physician’s end. This case highlights the role of an ophthalmologist in promptly diagnosing and managing dengue-related ocular complications in collaboration with a physician.
Strategies to build stronger bones in Indian children: Challenges for implementation
Authors: Mukhopadhyay Satinath , Dutta Deep
Published: July 2024

Background & objectives

Globally, vitamin D deficiency has been incriminated in poor bone health and growth retardation in children, impaired adult musculoskeletal health (classically described), increased risk of cardiovascular events, immune dysfunction, neurologic disorders, insulin resistance and its multiple sequelae, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and certain cancers. This review intends to holistically highlight the burden of vitamin D deficiency among children in India, the public health importance, and potential therapeutic and preventive options, utilizing the concept of implementation research.

Methods

A systematic search was carried out on PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Cochrane database, clinicaltrials.gov, Google Scholar, and ctri.nic.in with the keywords or MeSH terms namely ‘vitamin D’, ‘cholecalciferol’, ‘ergocalciferol’, ‘children’, connected with appropriate boolean operators.

Results

Vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency prevalence varies from 70-90 per cent in Indian children. Rickets, stunting, impaired bone mineral health, and dental health are common problems in these children. Serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D) should be maintained >20 ng/ml in children. Oral vitamin D supplementation has a high therapeutic window (1200-10,000 IU/d well tolerated). Fortification of grains, cereal, milk, bread, fruit juice, yogurt, and cheese with vitamin D has been tried in different countries across the globe. From Indian perspective, fortification of food items which is virtually used by everyone would be ideal like fortified milk or cooking oil. Fortification of “laddus” made from “Bengal gram” with vitamin D as a part of a mid-day meal programme for children can be an option.

Interpretation & conclusions

There is enough evidence from India to suggest the importance and utility of food fortification with vitamin D to address the epidemic of vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency in children.

Authors: Cote Maria P. , Hamzah Radzi , Alty Isaac G. , Tripathi Isita , Montalvan Adriana , Leonard Sophia M. , Kamble Jyoti , Javed Saad , Asturias Sabrina , Khajanchi Monty , Raykar Nakul P.
Published: July 2024

Background & objectives

Many low- and middle- income countries (LMICs) have attempted to implement trauma registries with varying degrees of success. This study aimed to understand the registry implementation mechanism in LMICs better. Study objectives include assessment of the current use of trauma registries in LMICs, identification of barriers to the process and potential areas for intervention, and investigation of the registry implementation experience of key stakeholders in LMICs.

Methods

An initial narrative review of articles on trauma registry use in LMICs published in English between January 2017 and September 2023 was conducted. Key findings identified in this review were used to establish a theoretical framework from which an interview guide was subsequently developed. Expert consultation with key stakeholders in trauma registry implementation in two LMICs was conducted to assess the experience of registry implementation further.

Results

The presence of trauma registries in LMICs is limited. Key implementation barriers include funding concerns, uncoordinated administrative efforts, lack of human and physical resources (i.e., technology, equipment), and challenges in data management, analysis, and quality. Stakeholder interviews highlighted the importance of trauma registry development but echoed some obstacles, notably funding and data collection barriers.

Interpretation & conclusions

Barriers to registry implementation are ubiquitous and may contribute to the low uptake of registries in LMICs. One potential solution to these challenges is the application of the WHO International Registry for Trauma and Emergency Care. Future studies examining context-specific challenges to registry implementation and sustained utilization are required.

Authors: Mathew Geethu , Bava Nooh , Varghese Aby Dany , Sushan Abey , Benjamin Anoop Ivan
Published: July 2024

Background & objectives

mHealth technologies, with their potential in improving public health, have recently gained considerable interest in India, offering an opportunity to deliver tailored and low cost interventions to the selected populations, especially in resource-poor settings. Project Vayoraksha aimed at developing and pilot testing mHealth technology-assisted strategies (Vayoraksha mobile application and field Vayoraksha network) to improve healthcare delivery and reverse quarantine at the field level among the geriatric population.

Methods

This field operational research study was implemented in Pathanamthitta, Kerala, from October 2020 to July 2021. The Vayoraksha mobile phone application for the geriatric users and a web interface used by healthcare workers involved in the field Vayoraksha network was developed with multisectoral expertise. Vayoraksha had facilities for symptom surveillance, teleconsultation and assessment of needs and included a community-based system to monitor and meet their needs that can help in reverse quarantine of the geriatric population.

Results

The project was implemented using the field Vayoraksha campaign involving frontline health workers and community volunteers. A baseline survey of 4782 geriatric population in the study area was conducted in Phase I, and 2383 (49.8%) had access to a smartphone facility to use Vayoraksha. Of these, 1257 (52.7%) were covered under the ‘field Vayoraksha campaign’ using intersectoral coordination and community participation. A total of 750 (59.6%) geriatric individuals downloaded the application of whom, 452 (60.3%) used the services of Vayoraksha. Needs were registered by 56 (12.3%) individuals of which 46 (82.1%) were medical needs related to the management of chronic diseases. More than 70 per cent of the needs were met through the Vayoraksha field network under the local primary health centre. More than 80 per cent of the geriatric individuals reported symptoms related to COVID-19 during the intervention period. Compliance with quarantine was observed in 77.7 per cent of the geriatric populations. Among those who used Vayoraksha, 26 (5.7%) availed tele-counselling services, and 3 (0.6%) used teleconsultation facilities. It was observed that Vayoraksha users had a higher proportion of the geriatric population who were young, educated, having chronic morbidity and living with family. Regular symptom surveillance was done within this group; only 12 (2.6%) of them tested positive for COVID-19 during this study.

Interpretation & conclusions

Results of this pilot study are promising, with 60 per cent of the geriatric population downloading and using Vayoraksha within a short time. Technology-assisted interventions can supplement the existing system for improved healthcare delivery among the vulnerable groups and have good potential for scale-up in the near future in developing countries.

Published: July 2024

Multiple myeloma (MM) represents a difficult-to-treat plasma cell malignancy and the second most common hematologic malignancy in adults, significantly impacting kidney function. The spectrum of kidney involvement in MM is broad, encompassing electrolyte imbalances, tubular injury, and even rare glomerular diseases. The evolution of MM treatment modalities has led to notable improvements in the long-term survival of patients experiencing kidney-related complications. Over the past decade, groundbreaking therapeutic agents have emerged, including proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies, selective inhibitors of nuclear export, and antibody-drug conjugates. These novel therapies have revolutionized the landscape of MM management, offering new hope for patients and challenging the traditional treatment paradigms. This comprehensive review explores recent advances in the diagnosis and management of MM, emphasizing the pivotal role of these innovative therapeutic agents in improving patient outcomes. We delve into the intricacies of diagnosing MM, highlighting the significance of early detection and precise diagnostic tools. We elucidate the evolving treatment strategies, emphasizing the mechanisms of action and clinical efficacy of the latest agents. This manuscript provides valuable insights into the ever-evolving field of MM management, shedding light on the remarkable progress achieved in enhancing the prognosis and quality of life of MM patients.
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) in an Outpatient Wound Care Clinic: Case Series Analysis of a Non-Invasive Technology in the Management of Chronic Wounds for Wound Bed Preparation
Authors: Nemeth Denise , Shah Jayesh
Published: July 2024

Background: Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) has been shown to reduce wound dimensions and healing time in chronic wounds and should be considered a valuable tool in the healing of chronic complex lower extremity wounds. Purpose: The aim of this small case series was to evaluate the effect of ESWT on complex chronic wounds in patients with multiple comorbidities in a medically underserved outpatient wound care clinic setting. Methods: All patients had baseline wound measurements taken. Pictures of the wounds were also taken at the time of the initial visit. Patients selected for ESWT received weekly treatments for a maximum recorded duration of 12 weeks in the form of focused electro-hydraulic acoustic pulses. Wound beds were cleansed according to standard of care. Results: Thirteen patients were followed with a total of 18 wounds treated. After retrospectively analyzing the data, 3 subjects and a total of 5 wounds were excluded, leaving 10 total subjects and 13 wounds. Out of these wounds, 12 healed completely by or before week 12 of ESWT. All wounds demonstrated significant wound dimension reduction during the first 12 weeks of treatment. Conclusion: ESWT could offer accessible, fast, safe, and cost-effective management of some complex chronic wounds. Further research is needed to validate these findings.
Efficacy of Plasma Rich in Growth Factors for Healing Chronic Skin Ulcers: A Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials With Meta-Analysis
Authors: Anitua Eduardo , Pino Ander , Alkhraisat Mohammad
Published: July 2024

Background. Chronic skin ulceration is a serious pathological condition for which the adjuvant use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been indicated. However, evidence for the use of PRP in patients with chronic skin ulcers remains insufficient due to a large heterogeneity in experimental designs, PRP composition, and preparation protocols. Objective. To assess previously published reports of the clinical effect of plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) on chronic skin wounds. Methods. A comprehensive search of the PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases was performed to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effect of PRGF on chronic ulcer healing, with no limitation regarding publication date (up to September 1, 2022). Percentage area reduction and probability of complete healing in chronic ulcers, pain reduction, infection risk, and cost savings were analyzed. A meta-analysis was performed, and the overall evidence was qualified using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE) approach. Results. A total of 113 studies were identified. After full-text screening, 5 RCTs met the inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis showed a significant effect of PRGF on both wound area reduction (mean difference, 56.90% [95% CI, 52.28-61.51], I² = 0%; P = .56) and on the probability of complete healing (RR, 7.07 [95% CI, 1.84-27.16], I² = 0%; P = .53) in chronic ulcers. The overall risk of bias rating was “some concerns,” whereas the certainty of evidence was high for both outcomes. A qualitative analysis suggested that PRGF did not increase infection risk and was able to reduce wound pain. Conclusion. The use of PRGF significantly enhances wound area reduction and also the probability of complete healing in chronic ulcers. More studies are needed to assess the effect of PRGF on pain and infection, as well as its cost-effectiveness.
Reviewing Recommendations From the IWGDF 2023 Guidelines on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Active Charcot Neuro-Osteoarthropathy: Highlighting the Role of Temperature Monitoring With Illustrative Case Reports
Authors: Rothenberg Gary , Killeen Amanda , Holmes Crystal
Published: July 2024

The International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot (IWGDF) has consistently published evidence-based guideline recommendations on the prevention and management of diabetes-related foot complications. In 2023, the group published their first guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of Charcot neuro-osteoarthropathy (CNO) in persons with diabetes. The guidelines highlight 26 recommendations based on 4 categories: diagnosis, identification of remission, treatment, and prevention of re-activation. As reviewed in the guidelines, there are 2 recommendations suggesting the use of temperature assessment and monitoring as a tool for management of patients with CNO. Utilizing the systematic review and the GRADE system of evaluation, the authors deemed the level of evidence around temperature monitoring and Charcot to be low with a conditional recommendation for use. The purpose of this manuscript is to summarize the IWGDF guidelines while highlighting the role of foot temperature monitoring. Several case examples are given to illustrate the use of temperature monitoring in patients with CNO. Until there are guidelines determining active vs quiescent CNO, skin temperature monitoring can be a fast, easy-to-use, and effective tool for the clinician.
Türkiye’de ekonomik büyüme ve enflasyonun savunma harcamaları üzerindeki etkisi: 1970-2022 ARDL analizi
Authors: Çınar Şahin İsminaz , Aytun Cengiz
Published: July 2024

İhtiyaçlar Maslow’a göre beş bölüme ayrılmaktadır. En alt tabakada fizyolojik ihtiyaç yer alırken bir sonraki tabakada ise güvenlik ihtiyacı bulunmaktadır. Devletler güvenlik ihtiyacını karşılamak amacıyla savunma harcamaları veya askeri harcamalar adı altında birtakım kamu harcamaları gerçekleştirmektedir. Bu harcamalar enflasyon, ekonomik büyüme, cari işlemler açığı ve işsizlik gibi birçok makroekonomik değişkeni etkileyebilmektedir. Ayrıca bu değişkenlerden de etkilenebilmektedir. Bu çalışmadaki amaç, Türkiye ekonomisinde enflasyon ve ekonomik büyüme değişkenlerinin savunma harcamaları üzerindeki etkisini araştırmaktır. 1970-2022 dönemi için yapılan çalışmada yıllık veriler kullanılmış olup ARDL yöntemi ve Sınır Testi uygulanmıştır. Değişkenler arasında eş bütünleşme ilişkisi tespit edildikten sonra ARDL modeli kurulmuş ve kısa ve uzun dönemli ilişkiler analiz edilmiştir. Uzun dönem sonuçları savunma harcamalarının hem enflasyon hem de ekonomik büyüme ile istatistiki olarak anlamlı bir ilişki içerisinde olduğunu göstermiştir. Dolayısıyla, enflasyon ve ekonomik büyümede yaşanan artışlar savunma harcamalarında artışa neden olmaktadır. Hata düzeltme modeli ile kısa dönemde yaşanan sapmalar uzun dönemde ortadan kalkmaktadır.

Published: July 2024

Letonya parlamenter demokrasiye sahip üniter bir devlettir. Yönetim, merkezi yönetim ve yerel yönetimler olmak üzere iki kısımdan oluşmaktadır. Letonya 2009 yılında idari toprak reformundan sonra 110 belediye ve 9 şehir şeklinde düzenlenmiştir. Riga hariç 119 yerel yönetimin tamamı aynı yetkilere sahiptir. Letonya Cumhuriyeti Anayasasında yerel yönetim ilkeleri ile ilgili herhangi bir hüküm bulunmamaktadır. Letonya Parlamentosu 1994 yılında Yerel Yönetim Yasası’nı kabul etmiştir. Letonya Cumhuriyeti Parlamentosu, Avrupa Yerel Yönetimler Özerklik Şartı’nı 1996 yılında imzalamıştır. Ülkede toplam hükümet harcamalarının büyük bir kısmı merkezi hükümet tarafından karşılanmaktadır. Yerel yönetimler kendi vergilerini alma ve paylaşılan vergilerdeki marjinal oranları değiştirme yetkisine sahip değildir. Çalışmanın ilk kısmında Letonya’daki belediyelerin siyasal ve yönetsel yapısı, tarihsel yapısı, yasal çerçevesi; ikinci kısmında ise mali yapısı incelenmiştir.
Bu çalışma Letonya yerel yönetimlerini yapısal, işlevsel ve mali açıdan incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma konusu olarak Letonya yerel yönetimlerin belirlenme sebebi Türkçe yerel yönetimler literatüründe daha önce Letonya yerel yönetimlerin çalışılmamış olmasıdır. Letonya yerel yönetimlerin 2013-2022 yıllarına ait harcama ve gelirleri, bütçe açığı ve borçlanması incelenmiştir. Çalışmada Letonya yerel yönetimlerinin idari ve mali yapısına ait sorunlar ele alınarak değerlendirilmiştir

Yoksulluk ve gelir dağılımı eşitsizliğini önlemeye yönelik politikaların sosyal adelet açısından işlevselliği
Authors: Manav İlker
Published: July 2024

Bireylerin insan onuruna yakışır bir hayat standardına sahip olması için gerekli olan sosyal ve ekonomik kaynakların dünya genelinde yeterli miktarda bulunmasına rağmen kaynakların dağılımında adaletsizliklerin ortaya çıktığı ifade edilmektedir. Ekonomik büyüme ve verimlilik üzerine yoğunlaşan, ayrıca sosyoekonomik kaynakların yeniden dağıtımına yönelik politikaları zayıflatan küreselleşme süreci ve neoliberal politikalar serbest piyasa ekonomisini ve özel mülkiyet ilişkilerini olumsuz etkileyerek yoksulluğun ve gelir dağılımı eşitsizlerinin artmasına yol açmaktadır. Burada temel problem, kaynakların belirli kesimlerde yoğunlaşarak diğer kesimlerin dezavantajına olacak şekilde eşitsizliklerin derinleşmesidir. Bu anlamda sosyoekonomik eşitsizliklerin makul seviyelerde olması ve kaynakların dağılımında adaletin gözetilmesi amacıyla hakkaniyete zarar vermeden özel mülkiyet haklarının korunması ve serbest piyasa koşullarının toplumun refahına hizmet edecek şekilde düzenlenmesi gerektiği ve bu amaca yönelik devlet politikalarının gerekliliği savunulmaktadır. Çalışmada, belirtilen sebeplerle ortaya çıkan yoksulluğun önlenmesi ve gelir dağılımı eşitsizliğinin daha adil bir seviyeye getirilmesi amaçlarına yönelik olarak uygulanan politikaların “sosyal adalet” düşüncesi bağlamında değerlendirilmesi yapılmaktadır.

Аннотация. Восстановлены распределения мощности акустического излучения по характерным размерам трещин на основе данных наблюдений акустической эмиссии в процессе одноосного сжатия образцов гранита. С использованием построенных распределений исследован характер развития процесса разрушения в течение промежутка времени между моментами регистрации амплитудночастотных спектров акустической эмиссии.

The acoustic radiation power distributions over the characteristic crack sizes are reconstructed based on observations of acoustic emission during uniaxial compression of granite samples. Using the constructed distributions, the nature of the development of the destruction process during the time interval between the moments of recording the amplitudefrequency spectra of acoustic emission is studied.

Published: July 2024

Выполнено сопоставление доступных в настоящее время глобальных баз данных магнитных аномалий литосферы: EMAG2 версии 3, WDMAM версии 2 и данных аномального магнитного поля Арктики CAMP-M на территорию Уральского региона, ограниченную координатами 5572 с.ш. и 5466 в.д. Указанные наборы данных сопоставлены с результатами аэромагнитных съемок, представленных в виде цифровой карты аномального магнитного поля Урала. Выяснено, что основные общемировые модели аномального магнитного поля в этом регионе заметно отличаются друг от друга и могут быть использованы в качестве исходных данных для построения магнитных моделей глубинного строения литосферы только в региональном масштабе. Для исследований верхнего слоя земной коры предпочтительно опираться на данные аэромагнитных и наземных съемок, которые имеют более высокую детальность.

We performed a comparison of currently available global databases of lithospheric magnetic anomalies: EMAG2 version 3, WDMAM version 2, and the data of the anomalous magnetic field of the Arctic CAMP-M for the territory of the Ural region between 55-72 N and 54-66 E. These data sets are compared with the results of an aeromagnetic digital map of the anomalous magnetic field of the Urals. We found that the global models of the anomalous magnetic field in this fragment noticeably differ from each other and can be used as initial data for constructing magnetic models of the deep structure of the lithosphere only on a regional scale. For detailed investigations of the upper crust, it is preferable to rely on data from aeromagnetic and ground surveys, the spatial resolution of which is higher.

Приведены материалы опытно-методических сейсмоэлектрических работ на плотине Ельчевского пруда-отстойника. По результатам исследований построены разрезы различных сейсмо- электрических параметров, хорошо отображающих основные особенности и структурные элементы плотины. Введенный параметр усиления амплитуды электрического сигнала при прохождении упругой волны позволяет наглядно представить характер поведения фильтрационного потока в разрезе плоти- ны. Проведенные исследования показали приуроченность сейсмоэлектрических и других геофизиче- ских аномалий к одним и тем же участкам обследованной плотины. Это позволяет идентифицировать аномальные ослабленные зоны повышенной фильтрации, представляющих потенциальную опасность в плане развития суффозионных процессов.

The materials of experimental-methodical seismoelectric works on the dam of the Yelchovsky settling pond are presented. Based on the research results, sections of various seismoelectric parameters were constructed, which well refl ect the main features and structural elements of the dam. The introduced parameter of the amplifi cation of the amplitude of the electric signal during the passage of an elastic wave makes it possible to visualize the behavior of the fi ltration fl ow in the section of the dam. The studies carried out have shown the confi nement of seismoelectric and other geophysical anomalies to the same sections of the surveyed dam. This makes it possible to identify abnormal weakened zones of increased fi ltration, representing a potential danger in terms of the development of suffusion processes.

Продолжены исследования поляризационных характеристик среды по экспериментальным данным многочастотных электрических зондирований на переменном токе на восточном участке Ельчевского ГТС, ограждающего накопитель-отстойник нейтрализованных шахтных вод, изливающихся из Дегтярского рудника. Использование данных электрических зондирований на переменном токе на трех частотах позволило реализовать алгоритм восстановления поляризационных характеристик (поляризуемости и постоянной времени релаксации) на основе спектральной модели вызванной поляризации Cole-Cole. Проведено сопоставление полученных результатов с материалами методов ВЭЗ и частотной дисперсии, а также с геологическими данными объекта исследования.

Studies of the polarization characteristics of the medium based on experimental data of multifrequency electric sounding on alternating current in the eastern section of the Yelchevsky GTS, enclosing a storage tank of neutralized mine waters pouring out of the Degtyarsky mine, have been continued. The use of electrical sounding data on alternating current at three frequencies made it possible to implement an algorithm for restoring polarization parameters (polarizability and relaxation time constant) based on the spectral model of induced Cole-Cole polarization. The results obtained were compared with the materials of the methods of VES and frequency dispersion, as well as with geological data on the object of study.

В статье представлены результаты проведенной авторами проверки объективности глобальной стратегии сдерживания затрат на здравоохранение. В частности, было выявлено, что она построена на ошибочном утверждении, т.к. не учитывает теневой сектор, составляющий во многих странах мира значимую долю.  По мнению авторов, стратегия, направленная исключительно на обеление теневого сектора экономики, не является достаточной. Представляется, что акцент должен быть направлен на применение креативных методов обложения денежных средств, полученных в теневом секторе экономики. Авторами было предложено применение 4 траекторий набора мероприятий по модернизации управления финансовым обеспечением здравоохранения, конкретное сочетание которых при практической имплементации будет определяться конкретными характеристиками государства (в т.ч. долей и структурой теневого сектора экономики и др.). Результаты исследования будут полезны Всемирной организации здравоохранения, Международному валютному фонду, аналитическим и рейтинговым агентствам, финансовым органам стран, желающим обеспечить качественную модернизацию финансового обеспечения здравоохранения и всем исследователям поднимаемых проблем.
