Published: January 2023

La oncología, una rama de la medicina relativamente nueva, gracias a los conocimientos genéticos, ha tenido un amplio campo de aplicación de tratamientos como terapias blanco e inmunoterapia, que sumados a los ya existentes, como hormonoterapia, quimioterapia, terapia biológica, obligados a ser administrados en todos los pacientes oncológicos, sean éstos con intención neoadyuvante (antes un tratamiento radical), adyuvante (luego de un tratamiento radical para prevenir la recaída y/o progresión), o con intención paliativa, se ha hecho también más frecuente la presentación de efectos colaterales, los cuales deben ser conocidos por los médicos, para una prevención o un pronto tratamiento, que dis- minuyan las complicaciones y mejoren la calidad de vida. Como se describe en esta obra, el enfoque es multidisciplinario, ya que también las complicaciones se presentan en diferente órganos y sistemas con las respectivas alteraciones funcionales, lo que hace muy complejo el manejo. 274 páginas ISBN: 9789942847621 e-ISBN: 9789942847638
El viaje Académico 2018
Authors:   Universidad del Azuay, de Arquitectura y proyectos UDA labobatorio
Published: January 2023

Para comprender una obra de arquitectura es fundamental no desligarla de su entorno, es decir, hay que estudiarla y recorrerla atendiendo a su conjunto. Las consideraciones asimilables resultarán más provechosas en la formación del arquitecto si derivan de la propia experiencia a través de evocadores paseos por el paisaje urbano. Una práctica aún más enriquecedora consiste en cultivar la mirada sobre lo que no se ve, sobre el espacio entre lo construido, en el esfuerzo por destilar valores de partes de ciudad vistas desde sus entramados de relaciones. 52 páginas ISBN 978-9942-778-12-3 e-ISBN 978-9942-778-13-0

XVI Conferencia Iberoamericana de Sistemas de Información geográfica: Mermoria
Authors:   Universidad del Azuay, Delgado-Inga Omar
Published: January 2023

A lo largo de los años la Geomática ha alcanzado “un alto grado de desarrollo tecnológico” satisfaciendo las necesidades de los usuarios a “costes cada vez más asequibles y con un creciente número de bases de datos geográficas” al punto que en nuestros días el factor tecnológico es de relativa importancia frente a “las dificultades organizativas y de formación” (Comas Vila – Pujol Causa, 1993). Las aplicaciones que ha encontrado esta ciencia a través de las TIG´s son diversas: geografía, ordenación, planificación y gestión territorial, biología, minería, vialidad e infraestructura,recursos naturales, condiciones ambientales, demografía, población, entre otras. Sin embargo, a pesar del gran potencial como herramienta, su utilización y difusión es aún limitada en profesionales que trabajan con información geográfica. Por lo que es indispensable “una adecuada formación de profesionales ligados a la Geomática” para incorporar estas nuevas tecnologías en las actividades mencionadas. Las nuevas tecnologías de la información contribuyen a caracterizar, gestionar y administrarrecursos naturales sobre un espacio geográfico. Entre las nuevas tecnologías se encuentran, los sistemas satelitales de navegación global, los sensores remotos y los sistemas de información geográfica; herramientas en conjunto denominadas Tecnologías de la Información Geográfica TIG´s, que a su vez forman parte de la Geomática. 475 páginas e-ISBN: 978-9978-325-87-2

La principal razón para la creación de nuestra Facultad de Medicina fue el deseo de contribuir a la atención de la salud de la región con médicos formados con una sólida base familiar y comunitaria. Edgar Rodas puso en práctica su visión de la salud como una, integral e indivisible; la práctica médica como un ejercicio ético que debe incluir no solamente actividades hospitalarias, sino sobre todo comunitarias, ambientales y cívicas. Además, consideró muy importante, reafrmar los tradicionales valores de la medicina cuencana, formando personas capaces de cuidar y de transformar el mundo con una sólida base científca, ética y de solidaridad Enfatizaba que el currículo debe propender a la formación integral de la persona y para ello se debe dar oportunidad a los estudiantes para aprender los conocimientos científcos y tecnológicos y la experiencia necesaria para la práctica profesional. Además, y esto es muy importante, permitirle ampliar su visión del mundo más allá de los limites de su profesión. La formación integral supone el fomento de la actividad cultural a fn de que las personas puedan ver el mundo más allá de su profesión, entenderlo mejor y entender mejor al ser humano. Eso lo concretamos, además, al tener una sede de la Facultad de Medicina en nuestro campus principal, para que sus profesores y alumnos puedan participar a plenitud de la vida universitaria.

Pedagogical Practices in Teaching SiSwati as a First Language in Diverse Linguistic Settings
Authors: Mngometulu Tholakele Constance , Makgabo Connie
Published: January 2023

This article reports on pedagogical practices in teaching SiSwati as a first language (SL1) in diverse linguistic settings of Eswatini. In response to educational research indicating the vital role played by a learner’s first language in learning, the Eswatini government embarked on an exercise of decolonising the curriculum in 2011 by using SiSwati as the medium of instruction and learning in the foundation and middle phases and a core subject throughout primary and senior secondary school. However, arguably, research on African language pedagogy is scanty, let alone teaching of SiSwati, as the little available research has been on issues of policy, thus leaving a knowledge gap on the pedagogy in SiSwati first language (SL1). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore pedagogical practices that are used in the SL1 class in compliance with the policy, which provides for SiSwati to be a compulsory subject and a vehicle for teaching and learning in early primary schools.. This qualitative case study involved eight teachers who taught SL1 in the foundation and middle phases. Data were generated through interviews. The findings indicated that teachers’ practices were anchored in the understanding that teaching SL1 meant equipping learners with functional language skills, such as productive and receptive skills, essential for studying across subject curricula. However,  a lack of pedagogical knowledge thwarted teachers’ practices to teach language in general, let alone to multilingual learners as expository pedagogy dominated SL1 classrooms, as opposed to curriculum requirements that learner-centred pedagogies anchored in social practice be used. Besides, these findings advocate for culturally responsive pedagogies appropriate to teach SL1 to learners from diverse linguistic backgrounds.

Authors: Sumarsono Dedi , Permana Dira
Published: January 2023

The use of contract learning is essential to involve students actively in the classroom activities and to facilitate teachers’ control and flexibility in the teaching and learning process, while letting students to work on activities independently. Therefore, this research is aimed at 1) revealing out whether or not contract learning instruction has a significant difference in the students’ academic writing performance; 2) describing to what extent the contract learning promotes students’ learning and autonomy; and 3) elaborating how the students perceive the diagnostic and feedback phases of individualized strategy as embedded in the contract learning. This study is mixed method interventional research design because the data are obtained from quantitative and qualitative. The participants of the study was the year 3 students of English Department at Mandalika University of Education consisting of 21 students. The instruments used in collecting the data are diagnostic test of academic writing performance, contract form, and questionnaires. The quantitative data are analyzed through the inferential paired t-test. Meanwhile, the qualitative data of each individual’s response to each item on the questionnaire are broken down according to the responses to each question, and the responses are compared, contrasted, and explored to find patterns and themes. The results revealed that 1) contract learning has affected positively students’ learning and performance in academic writing, 2) contract learning brings positive improvement on academic writing performance and 3) positive  perception towards the application of contract learning was shown by the students as it provided self-study materials and multiple types of feedback from the  the lecturer. This implies that students may benefit from multiple types of feedback and that instructors’ expertise in effective feedback delivery is of paramount importance.

There are problems faced by the students particularly the seventh grade students of this research location such as the difficulty to understand the form of English words and to pronounce them. The objective of this research was to solve those problems in order to increase the students’ mastery of vocabulary by applying spelling bee game. The research method used was a classroom action research by fulfilling planning, acting, observing, and reflecting in each cycle. It was accomplished in two cycles since the determined achievement was not obtained in the first cycle. The subject involved was 35 students of grade seventh. Qualitative data were gathered by administering interview, observation, and questionnaire while quantitative data were obtained from students’ vocabulary mean score. The qualitative data analysis from questionnaire showed that there was increasing of positive responses (23.97%) while observation and interview showed that the students were more motivated in engaging the teaching-learning process through spelling bee game. The quantitative data analysis showed that there was increasing on students’ vocabulary mastery seen from the increasing of mean score from 25.07% in orientation test to 88.57% in post-test cycle II. There were 31 students in post-test cycle II passed the criteria. Thus, the criteria of success were achieved. It can be concluded that using spelling bee game can be an alternative method to increase the vocabulary mastery in an enjoyable and fun atmosphere.
Endocarditis with No Valve Involvement? A Case of Superior Vena Cava Endocarditis, Rare but Serious Vascular Infection
Authors: Affas Ziad , Sreenivasan Anuradha , Patel Vijay
Published: January 2023

Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) will likely need vascular access for hemodialysis, the vascular access increases the risk of having bloodstream infections such as Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections (CRBSI). Rarely some patients may have non-valvular endocarditis. Fibrin sheath usually plays a role in this infection, and these can be identified on a transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE). ESRD patients can present without fever in cases of endocarditis due to uremia impaired cellular host defenses, therefore, a low threshold for TEE should be considered in these patients. We report a case of SVC endovascular endocarditis in the setting of MSSA bacteremia in an ESRD patient. A 49 -year-old female with a past medical history significant for ESRD secondary to diabetic nephropathy on dialysis with a tunneled subclavian hemodialysis dialysis catheter. Presented to the hospital for a chief complaint of fever for 2 days duration. The patient was vitally stable on admission; the area around the catheter was indurated and tender. The patient had a blood culture on the first day of her fever, it came back positive upon admission as the blood culture showed staphylococcus aureus bacteremia, and the patient was started on IV Vancomycin. Ultrasound was done and showed an abscess surrounding the dialysis port. TTE was done and showed no obvious evidence of endocarditis. TEE was done which demonstrated a large, mobile RA mass consistent with vegetation, which is attached at the lower junction of SVC and right interatrial septum. Angiovac of vegetation was done. The catheter was out. Blood culture sensitivity grew MSSA, susceptible to ancef, therefore vancomycin was switched to ancef 2g for a total of 6 weeks. Clinical suspicion should always be high for endocarditis in patients with fever and having dialysis catheter. TTE can be negative many times in these patients; therefore, having a high index of suspicion should always be there in these patients. Non-valvular endocarditis such as superior vena cava endocarditis is very uncommon and is only documented in a few cases in the literature. This infection responds very well to the antibiotic and Angiovac is helpful in these situations too.
Evaluation of Performance of Robotic-Assisted Coronary Angioplasty System Over Conventional/Manual PCI
Authors: Camm N John , Singh Sherrie
Published: January 2023

Most percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) might present hazards for patients, procedure operators, and the laboratory staff [1-3]. Due to complex nature of lesions and procedures, both patients and laboratory team may be subjected to exposure of longer procedural duration and radiation [3]. The long hours of standing for operators while wearing a lead apron commonly leads to exhaustion and injuries that frequently results in reduced performance and sub optimal clinical results [1]. A remote-control, robotic-assisted angioplasty system was developed to address some of the procedural challenges and occupational hazards associated with traditional PCI in addition to enhancing the degree of precision and control for the interventional procedure. A remote- control, robotic-assisted angioplasty system is used to address some of the procedural challenges and occupational hazards associated with traditional PCI. The objective of this study was to assess the safety and feasibility of the operating robotic system in patients undergoing elective PCI. This review summarises the safety and feasibility of a robotic angioplasty system in delivery and manipulation of coronary guidewires, balloons, and stents in patients undergoing PCI. Patients with coronary artery disease and clinical indication for elective PCI were enrolled. The coronary angioplasty procedure was performed with the CorPath 200 robotic system (Corindus, Inc.) The operating system consists of a remote interventional cockpit and a multicomponent bedside unit that contains advance, retract, and rotate guidewires within rapid exchange catheters. The primary endpoint was device clinical success (30% residual stenosis) with- out in-hospital major adverse cardiac events. The procedural success was defined as the ability of the system to complete all the planned angioplasty steps based on procedural segments.30 days follow up after angioplasty procedure was done. A total of 47 patients were enrolled in the study. Primary endpoint had been achieved in all patients. The success of the robotic system was 98.1% in completing 48 of 49 planned steps. No device or procedure-related complications were reported and no in-hospital or 30-day major adverse cardiac events were observed. We rated the robotic system performances as equal to as or better than manual procedures in 97.7% of the cases. Cardiologist’s radiation exposure was 97% lower than found at the standard table position. Our procedure results demonstrated better safety, feasibility and procedural effectiveness than manual operation. Besides, total operator exposure to radiation was quite low. However, a larger study is warranted to confirm the safety and effectiveness of robotic-assisted percutaneous coronary intervention.

Published: January 2023

Authors: Kembu Nakamoto, Hiroshi Hashiyada, Sadahiro Kawamoto, Toshiyuki Fujii. Introduction: Electrolyzed saline (ES) is a non-toxic virucidal disinfectant. A treatment strategy for COVID-19 infections, in which initial decontamination was achieved by gargling ES, was retrospectively investigated. Methodology: Thirty-eight COVID-19 patients were admitted between June 8, 2021, and September 30, 2021. Each patient gargled ES 3 times a day for as long as salivary SARS-CoV-2 antigen (Ag) tests produced positive results. Treatment effects were evaluated based on the salivary Ag level. Results: Gargling ES solution was used to decontaminate the primary infection site in 33 patients (study group), whereas it was used at 7~10 days after admission in 5 patients (control). Thirty patients were <65 y.o., and 12 were female. Twenty-six exhibited pneumonias on CT. 13 patients were fully vaccinated, which reduced the risk of pneumonia (OR: 4.67, 95%CI: 1.08-20.22). Gargling ES significantly reduced the duration of the Ag-positive period and salivary Ag levels. An Ag-positive rate of 50% was achieved within 7 and 17 days in the study and control groups, respectively (p=0.0013). All pneumonia shadows faded away as the salivary Ag level reduced. All of the patients were released from quarantine within 20 days. Conclusion: ES gargling rapidly reduced Ag levels and suppressed the progression of COVID-19.

Published: January 2023

Pregnancy-associated dermatoses represent a heterogeneous group with variable expression, ranging from pathologies with simple aesthetic impact to those with a pejorative prognosis. The occurrence of pemphigus during pregnancy is exceptional. The diagnosis is generally easy and is based on the clinic, histology and direct and indirect immunofluorescence. No clinico-biological particularity is observed during this association, but the occurrence of maternal-fetal complications makes it all the more serious. The treatment is mainly based on corticosteroid therapy, plasmapheresis as well as intravenous immunoglobulins. We report the case of a patient37 years old, married and mother of 3 living vaginally who consults for spots erythemato-papular lesions, vesicular in places associated with lesions in rosette and pseudo-rosette occupying the abdomen without respecting the periumbilical region, the limbs generalized lower arms and forearms occurring in the third trimester in a presumed unmonitored pregnancy at 36 weeks of amenorrhea and 3 days and whose skin biopsy wasin favor of a pemphigoid.

Authors: AlHamaqi Ghadeer , AlGhamdi Susan , AlAzhri Jamila , Mashhour Miral , AlYuosof Buthina
Published: January 2023

Extra-mammary breast malignancies are rarely the source of a metastatic breast mass. Uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS) is a rare disease with aggressive features and poor survival due to late presentation and advanced stage at diagnosis. Peritoneal seeding and cancer dissemination are not uncommon, but metastasis to the breast is extremely rare. Here we report a case of metastatic carcinosarcoma of uterus with unusual presentation as a breast lump without gynecological symptoms. Tissue biopsy and immunostaining confirmed the diagnosis. Few cases have been reported in the literature, mainly of serous type with the development of metastatic disease at multiple sites. To date, this is the only reported case of uterine carcinosarcoma metastasizing to the breast only, without intrabdominal dissemination, peritoneal carcinomatosis or another distant metastasis. We discuss presentation, diagnosis, methods of differentiation, and the up-to date treatment recommendations.

Authors: Romanenko O. , Konova S. , Solodushko N. , Baloshenko S.
Published: January 2023

Results of long-term research of Zaporizhia State Agricultural Research Station (southern steppe zone) as to the impact of productive moisture reserves in the soil for sowing mild winter wheat on yields in the context of global climate changes are presented. The water regime deterioration in wheat sowing on black fallow during the vegetation period within phases of plant growth was discovered. It was noted that for the autumn-winter period (termination — resumption of vegetation) wheat sowing on black fallow absorbed only 27% of precipitation. The main reasons for the low level of precipitation absorption are the deterioration of agro physical characteristics of the soil, increase of soil density and reduction of its permeability.

In terms of Zhytomyr Polissya on sod-podzolic soils the influence of different fertilization in cornrow rotation in humus, nutrient regime, physical and chemical soil properties and crop yields was identified. Agro economic and energy efficiency of fertilization is determined. It has been investigated, that in the absence of manure for soil fertility reproduction, by-products with crop rotation and green manure biomass fertilizers should be used as fertilizers. It is proved that alternative systems of fertilization are economically, environmentally and energetically equivalent. It has been found that to reduce the intake of radionuclides by plants we should ensure careful monitoring to both physical and chemical properties and optimal content of phosphorus and potassium in the soil
Agrogenic transformation of the common black soil under long-term irrigation with mineralized waters
Authors: Naydyonova O. , Vorotyntseva L.
Published: January 2023

We studied the influence of irrigation with saline water on the properties of ordinary chernozem depending on the duration of irrigation. An increase of the degree of adverse changes in the physical, physical-chemical, chemical and biological properties of the soil accordingly increasing duration of irrigation is shown. The processes of salinization, alkalinization and soil compaction enhance mineralogy and grain size distribution of soil changes. Irrigation with saline water for 20 years has led to an increase in the total content of water-soluble salts in soil’s layer 0–25 cm from 0.07% to 0.14%. After 50 years of irrigation salts concentration increased to 0.23%. Density of subsoil increased from 1.23 g/cm3 to 1.43 g/cm3 . Long-term irrigation with saline water has adverse effect not only on chemical and physical properties of ordinary chernozem but also on the size and functioning of the soil microbial cenosis and soil enzymatic activity. Irrigation with saline water for 20 years in the vegetable and fodder crop rotation resulted in a decrease in the number of microorganisms by 16–37 %, irrigation for a period of 50 years has reduced the number of microorganisms belonging to main ecological and functional groups by 26–47%.
The Nitrogen content and environmental capacity of soil organic substance in agroecosystems of Forest Steppe
Authors: Shum I.
Published: January 2023

Nitrogen content is considered to be a sensible indicator of soil quality. The main objectives of this study were: i) to investigate the impacts of oak shelterbelts on nitrogen distribution in soil; ii) to evaluate the profile changes of general and special environmental protection capacity of soil. The sample plots were set up on the alfisols in East European forest steppe: in the middle of the shelterbelts and also 1, 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 H from them. The soil samples were taken down to 50-cm depth with 10-cm step. We found that the highest nitrogen content – up to 0.45% was accumulated in the subsurface soil layer 0 – 10 cm. The content of this element significantly decreased with distance from shelterbelts – down to 0.23% at 20H. There was also a significant reduction of N content with depth in all the variants of the experiment – down to 0.05% at a depth of 40–50 cm. Changes in general and special environmental protection capacity of soil organic matter were analysed. The highest values of these both parameters were found under the shelterbelt and significantly decreased with distance from it. We also found that special environmental protection capacity was not an informative indicator in our studies. A possible explanation for these results may be the lack of adequate experiments on the soils with high content of total nitrogen. We suppose that the discussed parameter should be used only if lack of nitrogen is soil is observed. The obtained experimental data proves that not only total nitrogen content, but also the quality of soil organic, its general and special environmental protection capacity depends on the distance to shelterbelt. That is to be taken into account while planning the optimal dozes of fertilizers and ameliorants.

Authors: Hrynchuk K.
Published: January 2023

The aim of research was to develop diagnostic system of BNYVV based on polymerase chain reaction for the identification of protein P75 of RNA-2. The bioinformative analysis of the nucleotide sequences of RNA-2 virus isolates of beet necrotic yellow vein (BNYVV) was made. The conserved sequences of a gene that encodes a protein 75 have been shown. Primers design for identification of RNA-2 has been made. It was synthesized pair primers: Forward 5’ – CTTTGGCAGGATTAGGCTCG-3’, Reverse 5’ – CACTCGGGACTATCACCAGG-3’ with amplification product fragments of size – 490 nucleotides pairs. The developed system was tested and confirmed the effectiveness of its use in Ukrainian model cDNA of BNYVV isolate. The annealing temperature of primer was optimized and we have found that a more optimal temperature for identification of BNYVV is in the range of 50–62°C. In further studies we plan to determine the nucleotide sequences of RNA-2 of Р75 protein and establish phylogenetic relationship to world′s isolates.

The article reveals results of the study on heavy metals content in common bullhead’s organs and tissues (Ictalurus nebulosus Lesueur, 1819) in Shatsk lakes. Heavy metals (HM) are main pollutants of Shatsk lakes. Common bullhead (Ictalurus nebulosus Lesueur, 1819) has been an asslimate to different types of reservoirs in Ukraine including some Shatsk lakes and a number of cooling reservoirs for energy facilities since1937. Analysis of content particularities and accumulation of HM in the body of common bullhead is important from an environmental point of view. The starting material to address the issue of pollution control is to determine the concentrations of heavy metals in common bullhead’s (Ictalurus nebulosus Lesueur, 1819) organs and tissues with a help of ecological, toxicological and technical parameters of monitoring in dynamics. HM were determined by atomic absorption method. The results were compared with the data of background levels of HM for freshwater fish and with sanitary and hygienic norms. It was scientifically proved that common bullhead (Ictalurus nebulosus) can be classified as a bioindicator of HM pollution in Shatsk Lakes National Park through studying toxicological and ecological parameters of common bullhead (Ictalurus nebulosus) and examination HM distribution in its organs and tissues. If we assume that the investigated level of HM in common bullhead’s organs and tissues (Shatsk Lake District) can be used as basic indicator for anthropogenic pollution then the following series can be introduced (min – max): Black Big > Liutsymer > Pulemetske > Luke-Peremut > Svitiaz. Due to the lack of information on HM content in the common bullhead’s organs and tissues further comprehensive research and analysis of HM distribution in organs and tissues should be conducted in order to develop methods for HM content prediction in future.

Published: January 2023

The problems of monitoring and evaluation of soil quality are investigated. The directions of soil protection and rational land use are proposed. Soil is one of the key factors of an abiotic and biotic diversity of the ecosystem. Soil significantly affects the processes of creating new species and plant communities. In addition, soil and a geologic surface is an important factor in the creation of endemic species. This is especially important for terrestrial species communities of organisms. The condition of Ukrainian soil was analyzed. The concept of soil monitoring as the factor to preserve their ecological functions, such as soil diversity and the fundamental principle of the landscape mosaic, proposed V.V. Medvedev, has been developed. The need for the creation of the Red Book of Ukraine’s soil has been confirmed. The purpose of the Red Book of Ukraine soil is to protect endangered virgin and unique, rare and rare soils in the conditions of growing degradation of the biosphere and its ground components. Defining the role and importance of soil conservation monitoring for the most vulnerable species, threatened by extinction or irreversible transformation was developed.

Authors: Pichura V.
Published: January 2023

The paper presents the internal structure of the geomorphological system and performs geo-modeling of water-erosion processes in the basin of the Dnieper river. As a result of hydrological geo-modeling, the study identifies 776 basins of orders IV–IX and determines the total length of the erosion network of the transborder basin. Based on GIS technology, it creates spatial raster models of the distribution of the values of factors influencing potential hazards of soil erosion; assesses erosion hazards using the modified RUSLE (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation) model; calculates the potential of annual soil loss of arable land, and presents a spatial gradation of potential erosive violations of sub-basins of various orders in the area of the Dnieper river basin.

During the application of anhydrous ammonia in the area of its localization significant agrogene differentiation of physical and chemical, agro-chemical and biological properties take place. In this regard, for improving the monitoring of agricultural land, where anhydrous ammonia is used, it was proposed scheme of soil sampling. We proved that by the indicators of soil fertility the most representative soil sampling is the scheme with zigzag crossing with the formation of a mixed sample from the 20 individual samples.

We considered the problems and prospects of organic and mineral nutrition of soil of Zaporizhia region during 2000–2014 years. Over the past fifteen years, in average, 1 ha of sown area has got 29 kg of fertilizers and 0.2 tons of manure. It is respectively in 5 and 80 times less than recommended optimal values for Steppe conditions. The ways of decreasing the negative balance of humus and nutrients are offered. We determined that the average number of nutrients from organic and mineral fertilizers and other sources is three times less than their removal, and the loss of humus in 2.5 times more than their formation. Article indicates the necessity for conservation and reproduction measures of soil fertility, restoration of humus and nutrients balance through the balanced application of organic — mineral fertilizer and other alternative measures. We proposed to use plant remains within the limits of 80%, which will allow getting an average yield of grain crops in the area of 2.5 tons/hectare. Fertilization increased active substance to 175 kg/hectare.

Chloroform contamination of potable water as a result of its disinfection
Authors: Danylova I.
Published: January 2023

Practically all water supplies of Ukraine use a chlorine or connections that contain chlorine for water treatment. In the process of water preparation organic substances that are included in its composition co-operate with disinfectants, and as a result a few types of trihalomethanes (ТHМ) appear, and chloroform prevails among them. Sufficiently long time the underestimation of the most meaningful sides of their biological action took place — remote consequences, in particular mutagenic and carcinogenic action. Although in experiments on higher animals, data about the chloroform cancerogenicity for organisms were got and after classification of IARC (France) it was attributed to the group 2 (factors that are probably carcinogenic for a human), the increase of morbidity from cancer among people who used the chlorinated drinking-water in epidemiology researches didn’t confirm clearly in the half of cases during observation. It was determined later that chlorinated drinking-water influences elasticity of blood vessels. They become harder, and that is why functioning of the cardiovascular system is violated. And, as known, the lost elasticity of blood vessels causes atherosclerosis, disease of heart. In opinion of several authors, risk of development of cancer for people and animals that use the chlorinated water, grows substantially. The presence of organic substances in water supplies causes chloroform formation in drinking water. Frequently «water-blooming», which is caused by growth of phytoplankton in consequence of coming of biogenic substances into the water, determines the appearance of organic compounds. Article writes above determining actuality of problem of danger of chloroform contamination of drinking-water for a human and animals as a result of its disinfection and bleaching with liquid chlorine during water treatment. Some indices of drinking water quality which influence the chloroform formation in it are analyzed. It is noted that oxygen concentration and turbidity here have to be examined as the most essential indices that testify the level of water contamination and determine the necessary terms of its bleaching and disinfestation. Reproduction intensity of diatomaceous, blue-green and green algae is investigated in the water intake «Vidsichne» of the Teteriv river in 2014 and it is shown that an active development of planktonic algae causes the necessity to increase the doses of reagents, that are added to water during its preparation. The features of different departments’ coexistence of phytoplankton in a water intake and their influence on the changes of turbidity indices and size of oxygen are also educed.

Abstrak: This study aims to determine the attitudes or intellectual character of modernism and salafism that exist in pesantren academics who are also university students in responding to some of the problems they have encountered. The results of this study indicate that Mambaus Sholihin students use the intellectual character of modernism and salafism in answering several problems, in this case in the form of a view on professional zakat and an analysis of the verses of Q.S At-Taubah. Then in a review of Karl Mannheim's social theory on social action and the meaning of behavior of students of Santri Mambaus Sholihin which contains 3 object meanings. First, the objective meaning is that students of Mambaus Sholihin students have views on several things related to professional zakat and provide. The two meanings are expressive, that they view intellectual modernism as a type of thought that prioritizes rationality from contemporary and classical references that tend to tectulize from the Al-Qur'an and the Prophet's Hadith. The third documentary meaning is that the intellectual character of modernism and salafism has become something that is very inherent in santri students in answering various problems found from classical or contemporary reference sources.Kata Kunci : Intelektual Modernisme, Intelektual Salafisme.
