Published: September 2020

AbstractThree metafunctions of meaning in Systemic Functional Linguistics are interpersonal meaning, textual meaning, and ideational meaning. In ideational meaning, it is realized through the transitivity system (Halliday, 2004). As for this study, it focuses on the analysis of processes type classification and what type of process that dominant in Bandung hotel slogans based on Halliday’s theory about transitivity. To present the findings, a qualitative descriptive study is applied as the research design. The documentation method is used to collect 36 Bandung hotel slogans. It appears that the relational process is the most dominant in the hotel slogan clauses in order to represent their brand to affect the customer’s mind.

Alternativas farmacéuticas: ¿pueden ser intercambiables?
Authors: Carrasco-Portugal Miriam del Carmen , Flores-Murrieta Francisco Javier
Published: September 2020

Pharmaceutical alternatives are products with the same active moiety, but different salt, ester or pharmaceutical form. Regulatory agencies have different criteria for this kind of drug. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) accepts the generic substitution using these alternatives, whereas the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) only authorizes generic substitution of pharmaceutical equivalents. The objective of this paper is to describe some relevant aspects that should be considered before deciding on making a generic substitution with pharmaceutical alternatives. It is important to note that a pharmaceutical alternative must show no significant difference in the rate and extent of absorption (bioequivalence) in a well-conducted in vivo study when compared with the reference formulation. Current Mexican regulations state that generic substitution is possible using pharmaceutical alternatives when bioequivalence is demonstrated in in vivo studies conducted under the NOM-177-SSA1-2013 criteria. In conclusion, generic substitution with pharmaceutical alternatives is possible if these products demonstrate in vivo bioequivalence when compared with the reference product.

Published: September 2020

Background. There are numerous reports of low-quality formulations of ciprofloxacin in the market, which has been associated with therapeutic failure and the development of microbial resistance. Objective. The aim of this study is evaluating the bioequivalence between two oral immediate-release ciprofloxacin 250 mg tablets. Material and Methods. The study was performed in 24 Mexican healthy volunteers following a randomized cross over 2 × 2 design. Single doses of a test formulation Lemyflox® (Lemery Laboratories, Mexico) and the reference formulation Ciproxina® (Bayer, Mexico) were administered; blood samples were obtained during a 12 h period. Ciprofloxacin plasma concentrations were quantified using a validated High-Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) method, plasma concentration against time curves were constructed and pharmacokinetic parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis. In order to determine bioequivalence, test/reference ratios of Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-inf were compared using analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by the 90 % confidence intervals and the Schuirmann bilateral test. Results. The 90 % confidence intervals limits ranged from 82.92 to 100.88 % for Cmax, from 93.05 to 109.15 % for AUC0-t and from 97.76 to 114.99 % for AUC0-inf, all cases were within bioequivalence acceptance range of 80 - 125 %. Schuirmann test confirmed such observation as the probability that Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-inf ratios were beyond 80 - 125 % was lower than 0.05. Conclusions. The results obtained demonstrate bioequivalence between the test and reference formulations.

Authors: Dos Santos Carneiro Raylson , Dos Santos Carneiro Rogerio , Ferreira da Silva Kattia
Published: September 2020

O método dos elementos finitos tem como princípio básico a discretização do domínio da estrutura, efetuando procedimentos matemáticos para se ter uma aproximação mais exata da realidade da estrutura a ser analisada, pois existem alguns fatores que não podem ser considerados na utilização de métodos analíticos. Assim, por meio de uma pesquisa bibliográfica, este artigo teve como objetivo realizar um comparativo entre métodos analíticos e de elementos finitos em estruturas unidimensionais pelo método de Galerkin. Ao final desta pesquisa verifica-se que, ao elevar o número de elementos na malha que representa o objeto de estudo, tem-se uma melhor aproximação da solução exata. No entanto, o número de operações matemáticas a serem utilizadas pela análise por elementos finitos aumenta substancialmente.

Goals: General: The collection of dust samples deposited on Ficus benjamina leaves in the Guadalajara metropolitan area (GMA) will allow the identification of heavy metals and their spatial distribution. Specific: Identify the most polluted areas of the city and the elements present by means of particle dispersion schemes (maps) made with the data obtained by the atomic absorption technique. Metodología: For the extraction of heavy metals an acid digestion was performed. The samples were previously homogenized. The determination was made on an atomic absorption spectrophotometer model Varian AA 240 FS, with a monochromator of CZERNY-TURNER design, panel of 4 lamps and inert and adjustable nebulization chamber. The technique used was flame (flame) and calibration curves were used. Contribución: The concentrations of the seven metals analyzed Cu, Zn, Co, Ni, Cd, Pb and Cr were identified, the most abundant being Cu and Pb. The maps allowed to identify that there are some patterns of distribution of the contamination, such was the case of the Cd, Pb and Zn that are distributed very homogeneously on the Lázaro Cárdenas avenue until reaching the supply market area.

Published: September 2020

UGT1A6 catalyzes the glucuronidation of several xenobiotics and drugs widely used. Changes in the glucuronidation rate are attributed to inter-personal and inter-ethnic variations, that can impact the expression or enzyme function. Frequencies of genetic polymorphisms of UGT1A6 have been reported in another countries; however, there are no date of frequencies in the Mexican population. The aim of this work was to determine the genotypic and allelic frequencies of UGT1A6 19T˃G in a Mexican mestizo population of the state of Puebla and compare them with the frequencies observed in other populations. Peripheral blood DNA was obtained from 60 healthy adults and 19 T˃G alleles were identified by the PCR-RFLP technique. Our results were compared with those observed in other ethnic groups, and we observed that our frequencies were lower than those reported in Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Hindu, and Greek populations. These results must be considered to make decisions when choosing the drugs administered to different ethnic groups.

El conflicto epistémico de la pulsión
Authors: Oriard-Valle Michel , Juárez-Campusano Yara Suhan
Published: September 2020

This article analyzed the epistemological validity of the term drive (trieb) in psychoanalysis by contrasting its supposed biological origin in Sigmund Freud's theory with recent genetic results. Culture, for Freud, appeared in a moment of human evolution when it became necessary for our ancestors to form alliances in order to face natural hazards. Therefore culture’s main purpose is to protect us from nature and to regulate social relationships. Consequently it is implied that drives formed part of human’s nature before culture existed and due to drive’s sacrifice that culture demands it’s possible to live in society. Given that drives, in Freud’s theory, are the source of psychic suffering and the resources used to defend against it are cultural, the way in which these are considered have repercussions on the basis of clinical interventions and the aims of psychoanalytical treatment. At present, genetics questions the idea that human nature cannot be modified by culture. In other words, epigenetic studies, assisted reproduction, cloning, among others, seriously query the idea of an unchangeable human nature.

Se utilizaron como instrumentos de recolección de datos cuestionarios, observaciones de clase, encuestas y entrevistas. Los resultados indican que los docentes utilizan una metodología enfocada en el producto de la escucha que se centra más en la evaluación de la destreza en lugar del desarrollo de la misma (enfoque de comprensión); que los principales problemas que enfrentan los estudiantes al momento de escuchar audios en inglés están relacionados con dificultades de procesamiento de abajo-arriba (bottom-up) y que la enseñanza de la descodificación mejora significativamente la comprensión auditiva de los estudiantes, por lo que se recomienda incluir este tipo actividades en la práctica educativa de los docentes.
Mapping of hydrocarbons pipeline transportation in the Arctic Region of Russia
Authors: Gubanov Mikhail , Nokelaynen Tatiana , Rilskiy Ilia
Published: September 2020

Pipeline transport plays a key role in the infrastructure of the oil and gas complex in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. It is the most efficient type of hydrocarbon transportation and currently dominates in terms of freight traffic in the Russian Arctic. Among the shortcomings of this type of transport, one can single out a very high cost of investment in construction, as well as the threat of damage to the nature of the region. An alternative option for transporting hydrocarbons produced in the Arctic region of Russia is the export of oil, liquefied gas and gas condensate by sea tankers.

To solve a number of problems that have arisen during the exploitation of the Arctic hydrocarbon resources, spatial analysis and an integrated cartographic assessment of the current transport situation are necessary.

As a result of the research, a series of thematic maps of the transport infrastructure of the oil and gas complex of the Russian Arctic was created (scale 1 : 20 000 000). An integrated mapping method has been implemented that takes into account the environmental, technological, transport and economic characteristics of pipeline transport. Assessment and forecast indicators were developed. Thematic content includes: resource potential of the industry; centers for the extraction, storage and processing of oil and gas; network of trunk pipelines with classification according to the number of branches and the diameter of the pipes; existing and potential hydrocarbons delivery routes; the degree of impact of hazardous natural processes and phenomena on the components of the oil and gas complex.

The developed maps make it possible to objectively assess the state of the pipeline transport of hydrocarbons in the Arctic region of Russia and can serve as an essential part of the system for making responsible decisions on modernizing the infrastructure of the oil and gas complex to ensure sustainable development and safe operation.
Comparison and display on small-scale maps and diagrams of the territorial resources of the largest countries of the World and their major cities
Authors: Markova Olga , Maslennikova Valentina
Published: September 2020

The largest countries of the world are inevitably involved in various global processes, both natural and socio-economic. These countries have common features and characteristic differences in the state of their territorial resources; the study of these characteristics is of interest for the global prospects of sustainable development. A large territory provides a variety of natural conditions and resources for the country; however, not in all countries it is possible to effectively use them in the economy throughout the all country.

An analysis of their territorial resources was carried out for the six largest countries of the world according to the following parameters: area, efficiency, environmental load on the territory of the country, number, density, forecast of population growth or decline for 2050, main agricultural land (arable land, pastures, the provision of the population, degradation and pollution of the soils), forest resources (including security per capita, share in the area of countries), fresh water resources (including per capita provision and availability), greenhouse gas emissions, including per capita, the proportion of mammals endangered, proportion of areas of preserved ecosystems. The data obtained was displayed on the maps; a common legend is built for them in tabular form. A number of other parameters of the state of territorial resources and the environment were also studied.

In the process of research, the most important cities of these countries were also studied and diagrams showing their similarities and differences in a number of indicators were constructed: area, population and population density, time of foundation, climatic and landscape parameters, the presence of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, high-rise construction parameters.

The developed methodology is effective for assessing a variety of data on territorial resources that can be used to build models of sustainable development of the largest countries and regions of the Earth.
The experience of mapping socio-cultural boundaries in Crimea
Authors: Volkhin Denis , Voronin Igor , Shvets Alexandra , Yakovlev Andrey
Published: September 2020

The article deals with the essence of socio-cultural boundaries in a multiethnic region. Socio-cultural boundaries are presented by the authors as a marker of the mental unique character of the territory for those who live within it, and a likely source of interethnic tensions. In the conditions of the multiethnic region of Crimea, the probability of the existence of socio-cultural boundaries coincides with the nature of its administrative-territorial structure that arose after 2014. On the territory of the Crimean Peninsula, there appeared two subjects of administrative and territorial administration of the Russian Federation: the Republic of Crimea and the Federal city of Sevastopol. Similar bicentric division of Crimea existed during the period of the Ukrainian administrative-territorial ownership of the Peninsula, only the administrative-territorial subjects were called respectively the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Republican subordination Sevastopol. Geographically, both subjects have a common border, which runs through the territories of the Bakhchisarai municipal district of the Republic of Crimea, as well as the lands belonging to the Federal city of Sevastopol. The paper considers the possibility that the residents of the border territories of both subjects of the administrative-territorial structure of Crimea have mental differences in the awareness that they belong to different worlds: the urban one with a special political and geographical status in the case of Sevastopol and the rural — within one of the agrarian municipal territories of the Republic of Crimea. Does the artificially divided mentality mean that the inhabitants of the geographically united Crimean Peninsula have different ways of life, value orientations, and migration mobility?

The proof of the existence of mental socio-cultural boundaries has been presented by the authors on the basis of a survey of rural residents living in 12 border villages of the Sevastopol region and the Bakhchisarai municipal district of the Republic of Crimea. The original maps of the results of the survey of rural residents within the Crimean administrative border have been constructed. The cartographic markers to define the values of residents of the border villages have been determined, which allows to establish the degree of manifestation of the socio-cultural boundaries between Sevastopol and the Republic of Crimea.
Solution of technological principles of complex analysis of the environment on the basis of GIS technologies and methods of mathematical modeling
Authors: Kurbanov Bakhtiyor
Published: September 2020

The agricultural sector is one of the most important for the economy of Uzbekistan. Uzbekistan is the third largest exporter of cotton in the world. In the agricultural sector, 44 % of the population of the republic are involved. Active anthropogenic environmental impact in order to increase productivity in the agricultural sector was carried out without proper scientific justification. The increased demographic burden on the land has led to the intensification of desertification, salinization of land. Excessive application of chemical fertilizers into the soil, pollution of surface waters, which are often used for drinking and drinking water in rural areas, have led to an increase in the incidence of the population. The above problems indicate the need for a comprehensive analysis of the state of the environment in order to develop the most optimal ways to solve these problems.

The paper gives examples of the development of regional zoning maps for various thematic areas. When zoning the territory, a mathematical apparatus developed by the famous mathematician Lotfi A. Zadeh was used. The theory of fuzzy sets makes it possible, on the one hand, to take into account the experience and intuition of researchers in the model, and on the other hand, to find a compromise between the increasing complexity of environmental processes and the requirements for the accuracy of research results. These approaches were used for scoring in solving assigned tasks. In a comprehensive analysis of the state of the environment, the OVERLAY procedure was used. It made it possible to develop an integrated map taking into account the contribution of each of the analyzed thematic areas in accordance with the tasks being solved.

The solution of the technological problems of a comprehensive analysis of the territory will contribute to the development of a strategy for the environmentally sustainable socio-economic development of the republic.

This feature allows you to significantly expand the functionality and improve the accuracy of standard geocoding functions. The article provides a comparison of the most popular methods and software implemented on their basis, using the example of solving the problem of extracting geographical names from plain text. This option is an extended version of the geocoding operation, since the result also includes the coordinates of the point features of interest, but there is no need to separately extract the addresses or geographical names of the objects in advance from the text. In computer linguistics, this problem is solved by the methods of extracting named entities (Eng. named entity recognition). Among the most modern approaches to the final implementation, the authors of the article have chosen algorithms based on rules, models of maximum entropy and convolutional neural networks. The selected algorithms and methods were evaluated not only from the point of view of the accuracy of searching for geographical objects in the text, but also from the point of view of simplicity of refinement of the basic rules or mathematical models using their own text bodies. Reports on technological violations, accidents and incidents at the facilities of the heat and power complex of the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation were selected as the initial data for testing the abovementioned methods and software solutions. Also, a study is presented on a method for improving the quality of recognition of named entities based on additional training of a neural network model using a specialized text corpus.

Published: September 2020

We consider the process of forming the iconic system of atlas mapping of the Baikal region. More than twenty atlases were created for the territory of the Baikal region and published. Fifteen of these were selected by us for their general cartosemiotic study. We review the results of the analysis of the information-modular structure of atlases on the example of the map index in these atlases. It is shown that the number of information-semiotic modules in each atlas can vary and depends on its subject and purpose. The subject, structure and purpose of atlases are the cause of their complex and flexible modular-thematic semiotic structure. The analysis of the internal semiotic structure of atlases was carried out from the perspective of a single system of classification of conventional signs and graphic display methods on the example of three atlases: Atlas of Transbaikalia, Atlas of the Baikal Basin and the new atlas “Baikal region: society and nature”. The information and semiotic modules of the new atlas are formed according to the macrostructure of its thematic content, taking into account territorial levels and specific substantive thematic positions of mapping. When creating this atlas, we used effective methods of semiotic modeling and a certain balance and variety of applied syntactic constructions of cartographic signs. The atlas is being prepared for a printing publication as a work of a new kind, integrating modern information about the impact of socio-economic processes on the natural environment. The balance and diversity in the combination of various types, classes, groups and types of syntactic constructions of cartographic signs revealed during semiotic analysis of atlases of the Baikal region shows a high scientific level of map compilation and works on the general semiotic design of the publication of most atlases of the Baikal region.
Cartography-geoinformation support of national projects implementation: social-demographic challenges and spatial planning tools

Published: September 2020

The demographic situation and the level of socio-economic development of the Russian Federation require new consolidated solutions that can ensure the dynamic socio-economic development of the country, ensure an increase in the quality of life of the population, its well-being, and, as a result, improve the demographic situation. One of the key decisions on budget consolidation is the national projects adopted by the decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated May 7, 2018 for the period up to 2024. National projects are developed in three areas: “Human capital”, “Comfortable living environment” and “Economic growth”. Achieving the targets and additional indicators that are defined in the passports of national projects is a key aspect of the implementation of national projects. The passports refer to improving the network of health facilities (FAP and outpatient clinics), educational facilities (schools), the network of educational institutions, projects for creating a comfortable urban environment, etc.

To date, Russia does not have a monitoring system based on intellectual and innovative technologies that allows a comprehensive approach to the stages of implementation of national projects, to assess the effects (including changes in the socio-demographic situation) that the implementation of projects should provoke. Such technologies include geo-information systems and modern cartography.

Based on international experience in creating various monitoring systems, as well as personal experience in organizing geo-information systems for monitoring ethno-demographic and migration processes, and territorial planning, the authors propose the concept of mapping and geo-information support for national projects, which is presented in the form of “GIS-national projects”. According to the idea, this GIS will improve the quality of management decision-making at all large-scale levels (country, subject, municipal district, locality), and will make it possible to understand the effects of the implementation of national projects.
Using social media data to map the areas most affected by ISIS in Syria
Authors: Hasan Mohamad
Published: September 2020

This paper presents a model to collect, save, geocode, and analyze social media data. The model is used to collect and process the social media data concerned with the ISIS terrorist group (the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria), and to map the areas in Syria most affected by ISIS accordingly to the social media data. Mapping process is assumed automated compilation of a density map for the geocoded tweets. Data mined from social media (e.g., Twitter and Facebook) is recognized as dynamic and easily accessible resources that can be used as a data source in spatial analysis and geographical information system. Social media data can be represented as a topic data and geocoding data basing on the text of the mined from social media and processed using Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods. NLP is a subdomain of artificial intelligence concerned with the programming computers to analyze natural human language and texts. NLP allows identifying words used as an initial data by developed geocoding algorithm. In this study, identifying the needed words using NLP was done using two corpora. First corpus contained the names of populated places in Syria. The second corpus was composed in result of statistical analysis of the number of tweets and picking the words that have a location meaning (i.e., schools, temples, etc.). After identifying the words, the algorithm used Google Maps geocoding API in order to obtain the coordinates for posts.
Approaches to mapping the regional housing market to provide visualization of the National Project “Housing and Urban Environment”
Authors: Gurov Sergey
Published: September 2020

The article shows various ways of mapping the regional residential real estate market, which can be used in the future to visualize the National Project “Housing and Urban Environment”, implemented until 2024. The author demonstrates different types of cartodiagrams. It is shown that the equipment of residential real estate is more convenient to display a petal cartodiagram. Attention is paid to the use of cartodiagram with stroke, the semicircular and mesh cartodiagram.

The author gives a significant place in the publication to the method of mapping housing affordability for citizens, as one of the important tasks of the National Project “Housing and Urban Environment” is to create conditions for increasing the level of affordability of residential real estate acquisition. There are 4 availability indicators that can be displayed on the map using special cartograms and the cartogram method. The most successful option, according to the author, is a combination of two techniques for the image of a cartogram on one map.

Attention and rather rare means of socio-economic mapping, in particular the pseudoisolines (of isopleth). The author notes that this method is one of the most obvious in mapping the residential real estate market, especially the price situation. The article, by building isoprices, it was clearly shown how to identify the main geographical factors in the pricing of the housing market. Attention is paid to the geoinformation component of the isopleth construction. The algorithm of working with them using the Spatial Analyst module of the ArcView GIS program is shown.

According to the author, cartographic research should be completed with the construction of synthetic maps. One example of synthesis in mapping the housing market is a map of its geographical segmentation. Such maps can be supplemented with matrix legends. The author emphasizes the importance of moving away from primitive maps with one or two cartographic methods to complex maps.
