More Bronze Age less bronze: copper axes in the late Bronze Age hoard from Karmin, Poland
Authors: Baron Justyna , Maciejewski Marcin , Miazga Beata , Nowak Kamil , Sych Dawid
Published: September 2020

A Late Bronze Age hoard from Karmin, Poland, contained 16 socketed axes, half of which were made of copper. The copper axes represent the same local type as the bronze objects and bear the same traces of manufacturing and use. The authors argue that the move to copper was a response to unexpected difficulties in the tin supply.

Eken, MM, Withers, A, Flanagan, K, Burger, J, Bosch, A, and Lamberts, RP. Muscular activation patterns during exercise on the treadmill, stepper, and elliptical trainer. J Strength Cond Res 36(7): 1847–1852, 2022—Because of the low-impact, the stepper and elliptical trainer are popular alternatives to running when runners sustain running-related injuries. Muscular effort is expected to be lower during exercise on the stepper and elliptical trainer compared with running. The aim of this study was to quantify this by comparing muscular effort when exercising at similar moderate-to-high exercise intensities on a treadmill, stepper, and elliptical trainer. Seventeen well-trained runners (V̇o
2max: 53.3 ml·min−1·kg−1 [male: n = 9], 44.8 ml·min−1·kg−1 [female: n = 8]; average peak treadmill running speed: 18.7 km·h−1 [male], 16.3 km·h−1 [female]) performed exercise at submaximal levels (60%-70%-80% of peak workload) on the treadmill, stepper, and elliptical trainer. Peak workload was determined during peak exercise tests on separate days. Surface electromyography was recorded from lower extremity muscles. Root-mean-squared (RMS) values were calculated and compared between exercise modalities and submaximal levels. Significance was set at p < 0.05. Root-mean-squared levels of lower extremity muscles were significantly reduced during exercise on the stepper and elliptical trainer compared with treadmill running (p < 0.05, except for quadriceps (p > 0.05). Overall, similar RMS levels were found on stepper and elliptical trainer (p > 0.05), whereas in several cases higher RMS levels were found on the stepper compared with elliptical trainer (p < 0.05). These findings support clinical expectations that exercise on the stepper and elliptical trainer reduces muscular effort up to 60% compared with (treadmill) running, and therefore can be effective training modalities during rehabilitation from running-related injuries by restricting impact on lower extremities.

Comparison of 2 weekly frequencies of resistance training on muscular strength, body composition, and metabolic biomarkers in resistance-trained older women: Effects of detraining and retraining. J Strength Cond Res 36(5): 1437–1444, 2022—This study aimed to compare the effects of 2 weekly frequencies of resistance training (RT) on muscular strength, body composition, and metabolic biomarkers in previously resistance-trained older women after detraining and retraining. Forty subjects (>60 years) performed RT (8 exercises, 1 set of 10–15 repetitions maximum) 2 (G2x) or 3 (G3x) times per week over 12 weeks of training and retraining. After training, subjects were detrained for 12 weeks. After detraining, there were significant decreases (p < 0.05) in upper-body (∼12%) and lower-body (∼14%) muscular strength, fat-free mass (FFM) (∼2%), and testosterone (∼26%), whereas increases were revealed for fat mass (FM) (∼4%), relative body fat (∼3%), fasting glucose (∼8%), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (∼21%), and triglycerides (∼24%), with no differences between groups (p > 0.05). Following retraining, there were significant increases (p < 0.05) for upper (∼7%) and lower (∼10%) muscular strength, FFM (∼2%), and testosterone (∼20%). In contrast, decreases were found for FM (∼7%), relative body fat (∼3%), fasting glucose (∼6%), LDL-C (∼14%), and triglycerides (∼21%), also with no differences between groups (p > 0.05). Gains after retraining were lower than after training (p < 0.05) only for upper- and lower-body muscular strength (∼6%) and testosterone (∼11%). Total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, IGF-1, and C-reactive protein did not change at any point in the study for either group (p > 0.05). Our results suggest that older women can regain previous RT program benefits following detraining, regardless of the weekly training frequency. However, some fitness components may take longer to reestablish than the initial training level.

Machek, SB, Hwang, PS, Cardaci, TD, Wilburn, DT, Bagley, JR, Blake, DT, Galpin, AJ, and Willoughby, DS. Myosin heavy chain composition, creatine analogues, and the relationship of muscle creatine content and fast-twitch proportion to Wilks coefficient in powerlifters. J Strength Cond Res 34(11): 3022–3030, 2020—Little data exist on powerlifting-specific skeletal muscle adaptations, and none elucidate sex differences in powerlifters. Powerlifters tend to display higher fast-twitch fiber content and phosphagen system dependence. Nevertheless, it is unknown whether fast-twitch fiber or muscle creatine content are predictive of competitive powerlifting performance (via Wilks coefficient). Twelve actively competing powerlifters (PL; n = 6M/6F; age = 21.3 ± 1.0; 3.0 ± 1.8 year competing; 7.3 ± 6.6 meets attended) and 10 sedentary controls (CON; n = 5M/5F; age = 19.4 ± 2.0 year) underwent vastus lateralis muscle biopsies and venipuncture to compare the myosin heavy chain (MHC) fiber type and creatine analogue profiles between groups of both sexes, and determine whether MHC IIa and muscle total creatine (MTC) composition predict powerlifting performance. Samples were analyzed for specific MHC isoform (I, IIa, and IIx) content via mixed homogenate SDS-PAGE, and creatine analogues (MTC, muscle creatine transporter [SLC6A8], serum total creatine [STC], and serum creatinine [CRT]). Furthermore, MHC IIa and MTC content were compared with Wilks coefficient using Pearson correlation coefficients. Male PL MHC content was 50 ± 6% I, 45 ± 6% IIa, and 5 ± 11% IIx, versus 46 ± 6% I, 53 ± 6 IIa, and 0% IIx in female PL. Conversely, male CON MHC content was 33 ± 5% I, 38 ± 7% IIa, and 30 ± 8% IIx, vs. 35 ± 9% I, 44 ± 8% IIa, and 21 ± 17% IIx in female CON. Muscle total creatine, SLC6A8, STC, and CRT did not significantly differ between groups nor sexes. Finally, neither MHC IIa content (r = −0.288; p = 0.364) nor MTC (r = 0.488; p = 0.108) significantly predicted Wilks coefficient, suggesting these characteristics alone do not determine powerlifting skill variation.

Published: September 2020

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that may develop in individuals after a traumatic event. Tactical professionals (e.g., military, police, and firefighters) are at an elevated risk for exposure to traumatic events and the onset of PTSD. Exercise and mindfulness training techniques have been shown to be beneficial for both the physical and mental health of the individual with PTSD. Knowing that tactical professionals have an increased risk of exposure to trauma and PTSD symptoms compared to general population, practitioners should understand how to properly train these individuals. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to provide important considerations and training recommendations for tactical professionals suffering from PTSD.

Published: September 2020

Sada Sabai dance as one of South Sumatra's traditional art works, especially in East Ogan Komering Ulu Regency is very closely related to Komering culture. Sada Sabai dance is one of the characteristics of the Komering culture that dwells in the South Sumatra region, created based on the spirit of the Komering community when holding a traditional wedding ceremony. Sada Sabai dance is one form of art that is used by many Komering people who are presented during the traditional wedding ceremony. The problem raised in this study aims to analyze the characteristics of the Sada Sabai dance that developed in the Komering culture. The method used is a qualitative method with a case study research design. Data collection techniques include observation, interview and document study. The results showed that Sada Sabai dance was a symbol of the harmony between the bride and groom family, so that in the past Sada Sabai dance was only danced by married families. This phenomenon was clearly seen when the groom's family and the bride danced on the stage how the two of them looked very close to each other. Then, the movement in Sada Sabai dance emphasized improvisation and exploration as its main approach and the main characteristic lied in the middle fingers of the dancers.

Published: August 2020

The number of dialysis patients is increasing every year and is estimated to be more than 2 million, with an annual increase of 6–12% in dialysis programs. There is a high correlation between cognitive impairment and mortality in dialysis patients, which suggests the relevance of screening cognitive functions in dialysis patients using diﬀerent neuropsychological scales.

Aim of the study was to test the cognitive status and identify cognitive impairment in patients with terminal stage of chronic kidney disease treated using program hemodialysis, as well as to evaluate risk factors for cognitive impairment in this category of patients.

Material and methods. 83 patients aged 28 to 78 years (mean age 56.7±13.7 years) were examined. The main group included 53 people who received program hemodialysis, of them 23 men and 30 women. The mean age of patients in this group was 58.3±13.3 years. The control group composed of 30 individuals without kidney diseases, including 13 men and 17 women. The mean age in the control group was 53.6±14.9 years. The MoCA and SLUMS scales were chosen for detecting cognitive impairment and assessment of neuropsychological status. We used mathematical methods of research data processing such as inductive statistics and correlation analysis.

Results. Cognitive impairment was found to be signiﬁcantly more frequent in dialysis patients (75.5–81.1% of cases, P=0.05) compared to those without kidney pathology. The SLUMS scale was shown to be more sensitive than MoCA (P=0.05, CI 95.0%). The risk factors of cognitive impairment in dialysis patients included increased dialysis duration, age (rs=–0.298) and low estimated urea dialysis adequacy index (Kt/V less than 1.2).

Conclusion. A high risk of cognitive impairment is common in dialysis patients. For its timely detection,  the screening neuropsychological test are recommended to be used by clinicians. Cognitive impairment, diagnosed by the tests, is an indication for a specialist consultation.

Authors: Sivkov O. G.
Published: August 2020

Nutritional support is central to prompt treatment of patients with generalized secondary peritonitis (GSP).These patients desperately need a simple and aﬀordable solution to evaluate their daily energy need.Objective: to determine accuracy of estimating the Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) in GSP patients.Materials and methods. Study design: a prospective, single center study. The inclusion criteria: diagnosed GSP and stay at the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Three treatment arms were formed. The ﬁrst arm included all patients (n=61), the second arm included patients capable to breath spontaneously and adequately (n=29), and the third arm included patients on artiﬁcial ventilation (n=32). Reference values of REE were calculated by Indirect Calorimetry (IC) method using Engstrom Carestation Lung Ventilator and Metabolic (General Electric,USA). Six equations were used to predict REE values: Ideal Body Weight multiplied by 25 (IBWX25); Actual Body Weight multiplied by 25 (ABWX25); J. A. Harris, F. Benedict (HB); HB with corrective ratio 1.25 (HBX1.25); C. Ireton-Jones, 1992 (IJ); PennState, 2003 equation, in modiﬁcation (PS). SPSS Software Package was used for statistical analysis of the results. The zero hypothesis was rejected at P<0.05.Results. In patients with GSP, the REE value determined by means of Indirect Calorimetry method was equal to 25.78±1.37 kcal/kg/day. If compared with Indirect Calorimetry results, predictive accuracy of calculation equations in the second and third arm, respectively, were as follows: IBWX25: 30 and 0%, HB: 36.7 and 9.9%, HBX1.25: 49.9 and 45.5%, IJ: 51.8 and 53.2%, ABWX25: 63.4 and 60.6%, PS (as determined in patients on mechanical ventilation only): 42.4%.Conclusion. Indirect Calorimetry method is the only accurate way of REE evaluation in GSP patients. ABWX25 and IJ showed the highest predictive accuracy. IBWX25 and HB had the lowest predictive accuracy.

Purpose: to study the dynamics of blood plasma electrochemical parameters in patients with severe combined trauma before and after fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusions.

Materials and methods. The open circuit potential (OCP) of platinum electrode and antioxidant activity of blood plasma were studied in 35 patients with severe combined trauma and 35 post-FFP samples with at least 6-month shelf life. The electrochemical parameters of patients’ blood plasma were analyzed before transfusion, and 1 hr. and 24 hrs. after transfusion.

Results. OCP measured in FFP was found to be more positive vs. OCP measured in recipients' blood plasma in 34 out of 35 cases (97%). It has been shown that in patients with severe combined trauma, OCP increased from 5.047 [-7.553; 12.976] mV to 12.827 [-1.372; 24.764] mV and antioxidant activity decreased 24 hours after FFP transfusion from 16.979 [11.302; 20.946] µC to 13.551 [9.288; 18.405] µC. After FFP transfusion, there were no signiﬁcant changes in clinical blood parameters.

Conclusion. By measuring electrochemical parameters of blood plasma in patients with severe combined trauma before and after FFP transfusions, it was discovered that in spite of absence of changes in blood parameters by routine methods, there are changes in the condition of the antioxidant system of the body, which manifest in the bias of patients’ blood plasma OCP towards higher positive values and decreased antioxidant activity. Redox imbalance in the body might cause the oxidative stress development.
Knowledge and the Sociology of Education
Authors: Young Michael
Published: September 2020

This paper does not go into detail concerning the current debate around the idea of “powerful knowledge”, however, a brief account of the history and context of the sub-discipline as it has developed in England, is presented. For that purpose, some references to the important works of Basil Bernstein are explicated. It was he after all, following the critical reception of his early work on linguistic codes, who first argued that knowledge, or as it is sometimes expressed “the stuff” and not just “the who” of education, was crucial to any serious debate. Some hot points in the debate between Bernstein and Michael Young are presented. The suggestion is given that differently from Bernstein ideas to take into account „pedagogical code“ in the knowledge reproduction we have to begin with the distinction between memorisation of knowledge which is close to the idea of consumption, and developing a relationship to knowledge which has more affinity with becoming a member of a community.

OBJECTIVES:

Adults with chronic conditions originating in childhood experience ongoing hospitalizations; however, efforts to guide youth-adult transitions rarely address transitioning to adult-oriented inpatient care. Our objectives were to identify perceptions of clinical leaders on important and feasible inpatient transition activities and outcomes, including when, how, and for whom inpatient transition processes are needed.

METHODS:

Clinical leaders at US children’s hospitals were surveyed between January and July 2016. Questionnaires were used to assess 21 inpatient transition activities and 13 outcomes. Perceptions about feasible and important outcome measures and appropriate patients and settings for activities were summarized. Each transition activity was categorized into one of the Six Core Elements (policy, tracking, readiness, planning, transfer, or completion). Associations between perceived transition activity importance or feasibility, hospital characteristics, and transition activity performance were evaluated.

RESULTS:

In total, 96 of 195 (49.2%) children’s hospital leaders responded. The most important and feasible activities were identifying patients needing or overdue for transition, discussing transition timing with youth and/or families, and informing youth and/or families that future stays would be at an adult facility. Feasibility, but not importance, ratings were associated with current performance of transition activities. Inpatient transition activities were perceived to be important for children with medical and/or social complexity or high hospital use. Emergency department visits and patient experience during transition were top outcome measurement priorities.

CONCLUSIONS:

Children’s hospital clinical leaders rated inpatient youth-adult transition activities and outcome measures as important and feasible; however, feasibility may ultimately drive implementation. This work should be used to inform initial research and quality improvement priorities, although additional stakeholder perspectives are needed.
Sexually Transmitted Infections: Part I: Genital Bumps and Genital Ulcers
Authors: Gupta Nupur
Published: September 2020

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) affect young people in a disproportionate way, with more than half of the infections occurring in 15- to 25-year-olds, although as an age group they constitute only 25% of the sexually active population. Pediatricians should be familiar with the social, behavioral, and biological factors that predispose adolescents to STIs. Preventive visits for teens and pre-teens should incorporate education and counseling about sexuality, safe sexual behavior, and STIs. Pediatricians should be able to identify, diagnose, and manage STIs presenting as genital “bumps” and genital “ulcers.” Pediatricians should also offer human immunodeficiency virus testing and expedited partner treatment to all adolescents who are diagnosed as having an STI.

Some Biophysical Modeling of the Human Circulation Apparatus
Authors: Vincze Janos , Tiszay Gabriella Vincze-
Published: September 2020

Statistics from Hungary over the last seven years clearly show that diseases of the circulatory device lead the statistics on the causes of death. The Hungarian trend is the same as the global trend, with circulatory system disease being the most common cause of death in every country. The modeling of the blood volume, if we administer a certain substance amount, then its passing speed will depend on its concentration, hence the volume at which it spreads in the deposit. Consider the contraction and relaxation of the atrium/ventricle of the human heart; use the function of the rhythmic change for this. We apply the calorimetric principles for the measurement of the gastric blood flow. In the physio­pathology research of the circulation in arteriopathic people, when there are necessary arguments refering to the efficiency of new medicines or for the purpose of reestablishing the work capacity, the clinic diagnostic must be completed with laboratory samples: regional debt, peripheral arterial resistance, circulation time. Its measuring can be made with a normal double walls calorimeter and we measure the water temperature variations. Knowing the values of the previous formulas and the mass of blood circulated in that segment, we find out the segment’s flow. The human organism is a system because it is made up of a finite number of interacting p1, p2,… pn elements, characterized by the quantitative degree of q1, q2,… qn. The circulatory apparatus is a subsystem of the human body. In our opinion, the circulatory device should have a control associated with its own structure, which is likely to consist of neurons with hyperordonated spatial structure, called the “hypothetical secondary brain”, which performs certain control functions. This “hypothetical secondary brain” of the circulatory apparatus, in humans, functions continuously throughout their life.

Hermeneutik Pedagogis Maria Magdalena
Authors: Simon John C. , Ramli M.
Published: August 2020

Early Christian tradition placed Mary Magdalene as a sacred woman, who because of her divine God made her worthy of being a witness to the resurrection. Mary became an epitome for many who were awake in faith searching for Him on Easter morning. He is also a model of the church in its pilgrimage seeking God. Using a hermeneutics perspective, dealing with the Bible, Paul Ricoeur clearly distinguishes between reading and interpreting activities, "exegesis" and "hermeneutics". "Interpretation" not only means "exegesis", but "exegesis" as well as "hermeneutics". Productive hermeneutics bear a thesis, that is, the position of faith which contains free ethical choices. It is in this light that Mary Magdalene and her life will be seen in a hermeneutical perspective in order to arrive at an emancipatory ethical calling. In a pedagogical perspective, Maria's life values are: sensitivity- compassion, missionary vocation to be an agent of change, and wise creativity.

Published: August 2020

To become higher competitive a university needs to develop a viable students’ absorption strategy on the labor market. A key to the successful development of such a strategy rests to synchronize jobs descriptions with profiles and behavior of IT students. In order to generate this synchronization, it is essential to identify a way to improve university curricula, learning and teaching process based on the students’ profile and on the labor market needs. In this manner, universities could offer IT companies information about their IT students’ profile and behavior. Our paper proposes a data mining and social network analysis to examine IT students’ skills and behavior in order to generate their actual profile. The results contribute to the development of knowledge concerning the IT graduates’ profile and based on this, a solution that might match the university curricula with the labor market requirements. Finally, the results attempt to provide IT companies with information with the aim of better understanding the IT students’ profile and to create a realistic description of the job in the recruitment software on the digital market.

In recent years, the market demand for online car-hailing service has expanded dramatically. To satisfy the daily travel needs, it is important to predict the supply and demand of online car-hailing in an accurate manner, and make active scheduling based on the predicted gap between supply and demand. This paper puts forward a novel supply and demand prediction model for online carhailing, which combines the merits of convolutional neural network (CNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM). The proposed model was named convolutional LSTM (C-LSTM). Next, the original data on online car-hailing were processed, and the key features that affect the supply and demand prediction were extracted. After that, the C-LSTM was optimized by the AdaBound algorithm during the training process. Finally, the superiority of the C-LSTM in predicting online car-hailing supply and demand was proved through contrastive experiments.

Designing efficient routing algorithms in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) plays an important role in the emerging intelligent transportation systems. In this paper, a routing algorithm based on the improved Q-learning is proposed for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications in VANETs. Firstly, a link maintenance time model is established, and the maintenance time is taken as an important parameter in the design of routing algorithm to ensure the reliability of each hop link. Aiming at the low efficiency and slow convergence of Q-learning, heuristic function and evaluation function are introduced to accelerate the update of Q-value of current optimal action, reduce unnecessary exploration, accelerate the convergence speed of Q-learning process and improve learning efficiency. The learning task is dispersed in each vehicle node in the new routing algorithm and it maintains the reliable routing path by periodically exchanging beacon information with surrounding nodes, guides the node’s forwarding action by combining the delay information between nodes to improve the efficiency of data forwarding. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated by NS2 simulator. The results show that the algorithm has a good effect on the package delivery rate and end-to-end delay.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, transvers maksiller darlığı (TMD) olan yetişkin hastalarda transpalatal distraktör ile yapılan cerrahi destekli maksiller genişletmenin (TPD+CDMG) faringeal havayolu boyutları üzerindeki etkisini araştırmaktır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmaya 5 mm’den fazla TMD’si olan hastalar dahil edildi. Bütün hastalara genel anestezi altında, standart Le-Fort I osteotomisi ve maksillada orta hat osteotomisini takiben maksiller genişletme uygulandı. Dört ay sonrasında apareyler çıkartılarak transpalatal ark uygulandı. Hemen ameliyat öncesinde ve distraktör sökümünden en az 6 ay sonra alınan konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntüleri üzerinde Dolphin 3D Surgery Görüntüleme yazılımının havayolu modülü kullanılarak, faringeal havayolunun nazofaringeal, retropalatal, retroglossal bölümlerinin hacimleri ve faringeal havayolunun en küçük kesit alanı ölçüldü. Sürekli değişkenler için normal dağılım varsayımı Shapiro-Wilk testi ile kontrol edildi ve dağılım tipine göre testler seçildi. Bağımlı yapıda olan TPD+CDMG öncesi ve sonrası ölçümler arasındaki farklılık test edilirken, normal dağılıma sahip olan ölçümler için eşleştirilmiş t-testi, normal dağılıma sahip olmayan ölçümler için ise Wilcoxon testi kullanıldı. İstatistiksel anlamlılık düzeyi p≤0.05 olarak kabul edildi.Bulgular: Çalışmaya 9’u kadın (%42.9), 12’si erkek (%57.1), toplam 21 hasta dahil edildi. Hastaların yaş ortalaması 22.8±5.7; takip süresi ortalaması 22±11.1 ay olarak bulundu. Retropalatal, retroglossal ve toplam havayolu hacmi ve faringeal havayolunun minimum kesit alanı için TPD+CDMG öncesi ve sonrasında yapılan ölçümler arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunamadı. Ancak, nazofarinks hacmi için TPD+CDMG öncesi ve sonrası ölçümler arasında anlamlı fark tespit edildi (p≤0.05).Sonuç: TPD+CDMG sonrası nazofarinks hacminde önemli artış olduğu bulunurken, faringeal havayolunun diğer bölgelerindeki hacimsel ve kesitsel değişikliklerin önemli düzeyde olmadığı bulunmuştur.

Objective: Facial symmetry is an important component of a successful treatment of patients with cleft lip and palate. The aim of this retrospective study was to examine the pronasale, nasolabial, and paranasal region asymmetries in patients with nonsyndromic unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) using three-dimensional (3D) facial imaging.Materials and Method: The study group consisted of 29 patients with complete UCLP aged 8–29 years. 3D stereophotogrammetric soft tissue recordings of all patients were analyzed. Measurements were performed on the cleft and noncleft side and compared with each other by the paired t-test.Results: Statistically significant differences were observed between the cleft and noncleft sides. Alar contour-Pronasale distance was longer on the cleft side than on the noncleft side, with the difference between them being statistically significant (p<0.05). The Subnasale-Pronasale / Alar contour-Pronasale ratio was also significantly lower on the cleft side than on the noncleft side (p<0.05).Conclusion: Patients with UCLP did not present significant asymmetries regarding Cheek and Buccal contours and Chelion-Subnasale and Christa Philtry-Subnasale heights. Asymmetrical appearance was prominent on alar base and pronasale regions.

Authors: Bobryshev Alexey N. , Agafonova Nelly P.
Published: September 2020

Importance. The limited resources inherent not only in the Russian economy, but also in the global economic system, lead to the need to form new forms of economy and methods of managing them.Project management emerged as a response to the problem of limited resources, since its essence is to direct material, financial and labor resources to clearly defined goals within a specified timeframe. Thus, the application of the project approach in the management of an economic entity allows you to create fundamentally new types of activities, develop and implement innovative products, and implement progressive methods in production activities. However, the functioning of this management system is impossible without information support of the necessary level of detail for making effective management decisions. The development and implementation of the management accounting system provides an opportunity to create a relevant information base for the implementation of projects in accordance with the established time, resource and quality constraints. It should be noted that management accounting tools that are effective in process activities are not always able to demonstrate similar results when implementing the project approach. In this regard, the research aimed at adapting budgeting to project-oriented activities is an actual and practically significant task that can increase the competitiveness of domestic economic entities.Objectives. Justification of the relevance of budgeting as a key element of management accounting in project-oriented activities, highlighting the key features of building organizational and financial structures in process and project activities.Methods. In the process of studying budgeting as the main element of the management accounting system in project-oriented organizations, methods of logical, statistical analysis, as well as Generalscientific methods of cognition were used.Results. The article presents the organizational and financial structure of the economic subject from the point of view of process and project activities, and suggests the cash budget of the projectand current (process) production, which is necessary for the formation of an information base that allows for operational and effective management of the business entity.Conclusions and Relevance. The main task of all organizations, regardless of the volume, type of activity and form of ownership, aimed at maximizing profits, is the optimal consumption of resources, which is subject to management at the planning stage, which requires the development of an objective and flexible budgeting system that meets modern business conditions. The main purpose of management accounting is to generate information about costs in the context of the financial and organizational structure of an economic entity.

Цель: разработка методики многомерного прогнозирования экономических процессов с помощью матричной модели, построение которой основано на совместном использовании регрессионных моделей и аппарата главных компонент. Обсуждение: аппарат прогнозирования региональных процессов постоянно требует своего совершенствования. Их многомерность и сложность взаимодействия практически исключают возможность применения традиционных методов и моделей. В разрабатываемой методике предлагается двухуровневая система расчета сбалансированных прогнозных оценок, позволяющая учитывать как общую системную сбалансированность, так и внутри блочную. Достигается этот эффект за счет использования главных компонент второго уровня, под которыми понимаются главные компоненты, построенные на расчетных значениях обычных главных компонент. В соответствии с этим двухуровневым подходом предусмотрено построение матричных моделей, которые на каждом уровне обеспечивают получение многомерных прогнозных оценок. Результаты: предложена методика формирования многомерного прогнозного образа из системно сбалансированных прогнозных оценок.
