The gender agenda in Saudi Arabia and Iran: factors for an international socialization
Authors: FILL Alice
Published: November 2019

Since the last century, Tunisia has been a source of inspiration for the Arab world in protecting rights and recognising the status of the person. The issue of women's rights has always unfolded at the centre of the country's political, religious and social dialogue: questioned and reaffirmed along with the succession of different conceptions of the state and with the alternation of policies divided between secularism and democratisation, has indeed played a pivotal role throughout the development of the country. The revolution of the Arab Spring is an authentic watershed in Tunisian history and has profoundly changed women's status. After a troubled transition period studded with complex ideological and political compromises, in 2014 a new constitution, incredibly advanced for the rights and the recognition of equality, came into force. The process of implementation of the Charter —not yet completed— is accompanied by the vigilant participation of activists and various movements facing the resistances that  —rooted within the country— hinder the effective recognition of constitutional rights. These more or less explicit oppositions are strongly linked to a tradition that, at a social, cultural, political and juridical level, seems difficult to reconcile with the new horizon of rights in which post-revolutionary Tunisia has set itself. This paper aims to identify the root causes of the gap between what is constitutionally recognised and what is found on the social level, taking into consideration the historical and political interweaving of the country and the changing role played by women in articulating moments of continuity and revolution, until today.
Desarmar al ‘bárbaro’: Occidente y la cruzada contra la proliferación nuclear en Oriente Medio
Authors: PUGA ÁLVAREZ Cristina Valeria
Published: November 2019

El Tratado de No Proliferación Nuclear (TNP) en vigor desde 1970 legitimó la tesis de Occidente de que hay estados más racionales y estables que otros para poseer un arsenal nuclear. Aunque las diferencias entre estados existen, una división binaria entre un mundo civilizado y racional y otro bárbaro e irracional no contribuye a explicar la diversidad de fenómenos en la arena internacional, antes bien, obtura esa posibilidad. La Guerra contra el Terrorismo, declarada por Estados Unidos en 2001, exacerbó su postura estratégica etnocéntrica y le permitió implementar políticas y acciones de contraproliferación nuclear desproporcionadas en países como Irak, Libia e Irán. A partir del análisis sobre etnocentrismo y seguridad del teórico británico de las Relaciones Internacionales, Ken Booth, el presente artículo explica las contradicciones de la narrativa dicotómica occidental en referencia a la proliferación nuclear en Oriente Medio, sintetizada en tres postulados: primero, la disuasión nuclear no es posible debido a la inestabilidad política de los actores; segundo, los países de Oriente Medio carecen de capacidades técnicas para la posesión de armas nucleares y tercero, el gasto militar nuclear contraviene al desarrollo de estos países.
Social Pedagogues’ Definitions Of Three Types Of Bullying
Authors: Aia-Utsal Minni , Kõiv Kristi
Published: November 2019

The purpose of this exploratory descriptive research using a free-response methodology was to examine social pedagogues' definitions of learner-on-learner, learner-on-educator and educator-on-adult bullying in school context. This study is one of the first studies to approach to conceptualize three different types of bullying from the perspective of the social pedagogues. A representative sample of 165 social pedagogues provided their own definition about school bullying, educator-targeted bullying and educator-targeted workplace bullying. Quantitative content analysis revealed that the participants held a shared understanding of the three types of bullying concurred with those used in the research literature – intention, repetition, imbalance of power, and causing harm to victim. Although, these components remain a part of the definitions of three types of bullying, social pedagogues operated broader multilevel bullying definitions with adding two components – recognition of individuals engaging in bullying behavior and approaches for dealing with bullying. However, differences in the conceptualization of three types of bullying among social pedagogues were found as well. It was revealed that social pedagogues differentiated the meaning of three types of bullying from each other in terms of type of aggression, power relationship character, manifestations of workplace bullying forms, and characteristics of the individuals engaged in bullying. The one occupation-specific approach focusing on social pedagogues’ perspective can enhance our understanding of the multilevel conceptual nature of bullying in school context.
Removal of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) in packed microcolumns with carbon xerogel modified with TiO2 nanoparticles
Authors: Gomez Rengifo Viviana Eloisa , Herrera Barros Adriana , Sanchez Toro Jorge Hernan
Published: November 2019

The adsorption capacity of acetylsalicylic acid was evaluated using carbon xerogel (CX) and carbon xerogel modified with TiO2 nanoparticles (CXM). These materials were characterized by different techniques such as Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. BET surface area measurements found values of 762 m2/g and 214 m2/g for CX and CXM, respectively. Batch experiments show that the Langmuir-Freundlich model best represents the experimental adsorption isotherm, in addition to show a maximum adsorption capacity of 17,48 mg/g.  In continuous experiments, the effect of the inlet concentration and flow rate on the adsorption capacity of the micro-packed bed adsorber were evaluated. Breakthrough curves agree well with the axial dispersion model. In view of their adsorption capacity, carbon xerogels provide a potential material for the removal of emergent contaminants from the pharmaceutical industry. Besides, the incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles allows the implementation of complementary techniques, e.g. photodegradation, as an alternative to achieve higher elimination of aqueous contaminants.
Bem viver e terra sem males: a cosmologia dos povos indígenas como uma epistemologia educativa de decolonialidade
Authors: Dalla Rosa Luís Carlos
Published: November 2019

O artigo discute os conceitos de “bem viver” e de “terra sem males” presentes na cosmologia dos povos indígenas em vista de uma epistemologia educativa de decolonialidade, tal como a propõe pensadores como Enrique Dussel e Walter Mignolo. O ponto de partida é a razão do/a Outro/a, sobretudo a exterioridade indígena, mas que se manifesta também em outras fronteiras (a mulher, o negro, a juventude...) que desbordam a modernidade e a colonialidade, duas faces de uma mesma ontologia que pensa o fundamento do ser a partir da totalidade que oprime e exclui a outridade. Trata-se de uma abordagem eminentemente teórica que parte de uma análise fenomenológica e, ao mesmo tempo, hermenêutica, na medida em que a manifestação da sabedoria indígena tem a prioridade e, como tal, deve ser o pano de fundo da presente discussão, a qual ocorre no âmbito da filosofia da educação.
Escolas do campo e a guetização do processo pedagógico
Authors: Wanderer Fernanda , Bocasanta Daiane Martins
Published: November 2019

O artigo é fruto de uma investigação desenvolvida com o propósito de examinar as enunciações sobre a escola do campo produzidas por acadêmicos de um Curso de Licenciatura em Educação do Campo. O material de pesquisa escrutinado é constituído por documentos do curso e questionários aplicados junto aos estudantes. Os aportes teóricos advêm do pensamento de Michel Foucault e Zygmunt Bauman. A análise mostrou que os discentes estão capturados pelo enunciado que diz: “a escola do campo deve trabalhar com a forma de vida do campo”. Sobre a recorrência desse enunciado é possível dizer que: a) a valorização exacerbada da cultura do campo atende a uma urgência: manter na zona rural a população que nela reside, evitando seu deslocamento para as periferias das cidades; e b) reforça a guetização do processo pedagógico presente nas escolas do campo.

'The Answer to All Your Problems?' The Overly Positive Presentation of Meditation in the Media
Authors: Lutkajtis Anna
Published: November 2019

The current popularity of ‘secular’ meditation has been due in large part to its promotion in the mainstream Western media. In 1975 Time magazine ran a cover featuring an image of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the founder of Transcendental Meditation (TM) along with the headline: ‘Meditation: The Answer to All Your Problems?’ Ever since, stories about meditation have captured the attention of a Western audience receptive to narratives around spirituality, healing, self-help and wellness. The view of meditation that is portrayed by the Western media is, however, radically simplified and incomplete. Specifically, it is an overwhelmingly positive view, which at its most extreme, promotes meditation as a type of panacea or cure-all and ignores some of the potential adverse effects associated with meditation practice. Why has there been such an overwhelmingly positive portrayal of meditation in the media? This article examines some of the factors that have contributed to this view: the use of popular meditation tropes, poor scientist-journalist communication, celebrity influence and the commodification of meditation. It argues that all of these factors have combined to create a popular, but inaccurate, media portrayal of meditation as a simple and side-effect free solution for a variety of common problems.
Promotion of Legal Culture as a Factor of New Stage in Integration. From the Community of Legal Values to the Community of Law
Authors: Biernat Tadeusz
Published: November 2019

The basis of European communities’ integration is diversified. Some of its aspects are particularly emphasized, like the dynamics of economic development, which creates new quality of life for millions of Europeans. Much attention is devoted to the common historical past and the common democratic political values. The attention is focused, to a lesser extent, on what constitutes the real basis of cultural identity for European societies, namely law and the attitude to it. It is law and values attributed to it as well as legal institutions, which have been the strongest links of cultural chain connecting Europeans. Except for a basic issue, that is the Roman law tradition, one can point at a great common achievement with essential practical qualities. Lex mercatoria in the field of commercial law. Traditions of European constitutionalism, including the second, in the terms of the time of creation, modern constitution which was Polish constitution of 1791. Modern civil law becoming widespread due to the French Napoleonic Civil Code, which at the beginning of the 19th century was binding on the eastern European territory within such borders, which are now the European Union’s borders. The exchange of ideas and legal doctrine from the Middle Ages at European Universities. Promoting in these discussions, starting from the 16th century, modern solutions in the area of law, like the postulate of departing from capital punishment and equal rights. A systematic development of subjective rights, human rights, equal rights for women, rights of minorities and rights of the disabled. Introducing these rights to the positive law and ensuring their international and institutional protection.
New Conditions and Changing Image of Military Forces in the Early 21st Century. Readiness to Unlimited Violence?
Authors: J. Piątek Jarosław
Published: November 2019

Today’s world undergoes unbelievably rapid changes in the main spheres of social life. Nearly everyday we can see spectacular socio-political, economic, cultural, science and technological transformation. Rules previously typical for an industrial society became obsolete. The third wave of civilization development and information society emerges. Increasingly more often production capacity enables manufacturing goods considerably saturated with modern knowledge to develop into highly advanced technologies. New forms of production developed, including soft ware, media, advertising, consulting, and public relations. Consequently, the stage of relative stabilization comes to its end and threats result from the lack of ability to follow continuous changes.
Voter Absenteeism in the Local Government Elections in Poland in 2006
Authors:   Jagiellonian University in Kraków (Poland), Sasińska–Klas Teresa
Published: November 2019

Numerous public opinion polls conducted in Poland since the 1990s have tried to answer questions linked with the processes of installing, and later stabilizing the new democratic order. Theoretical considerations were conducted on the basis of political science, sociology, and communications studies dealing with the democratic system, tended to concentrate on procedural questions as well as in institutional frameworks dealing with the functioning of the democratic system. Analyses dealing with the social reception of the political transformations and their reflection in the state of social awareness most often were in reference to the situation concerning successive political elections. It would appear the linking of these research approaches, of the so-called theoretical studies of the democratic process in the political system as well as empirical findings, and also perceived social signals resulting from public opinion research, may lead to the creation of more valuable results, as well as the posing of new research questions.
The Senate 2007: Block Voting in Operation
Authors: Flis Jarosław
Published: November 2019

Elections to the Senate are rarely a topic of deep analysis by media or researchers. The Upper House of the Parliament is not a place where key political decisions are made. The Government, which is appointed by the majority of the Lower House, the Sejm, is the center of Polish political life. Experience show that the political situation in the Senate is much more stable than in the Sejm. From 1997, parties which won elections to the Sejm always had a majority in the Senate, although none of these parties had an independent majority in the Sejm. The 2007 elections crown this trend – only one mandate in the Senate was given to a candidate who did not come from the winning party or any main opposition parties. Every fifth mandate in the Lower House was given to smaller parties. The purpose of this analysis is to find an answer to the question on what leads to such results.

Published: November 2019

Paul Collier’s recent publication: ”The Bottom Billion” tries to give an answer to the question stated on the cover: why are the poorest countries failing and what can be done about it? Collier points at fifty states claiming that the real problem lies there, affecting circa one billion of their population. The sources of the decline in living standards are identified in four groups: the trap of a conflict, natural resources – usually being a part of the problem, less frequently part of the solution, the problem of being landlocked by “bad neighbors” and last but not least – bad governance.

The history of local government on Polish territories is not shorter or less fascinating than in other European countries. However, political obstacles, military conflicts, changes in the statehood system or finally its loss caused that what wherever else is the basis for further development of local democracy in Poland has to be built from the start. I mean here of course the long-lasting tradition of independent shaping and strengthening patterns, views and visions of local & regional self-governance, of which chance to fully develop Poland had not have. The socio-political reality of today’s 3rd Republic is a dynamically evolving country, which due to the rapidness of that change demands strong support from its finest researchers and scientists. The goal set for them is to present a wide range of concepts that will allow to program the future direction of progress. This way the necessary fundaments for Polish democracy at the regional and local level, and a tradition of discussion and sustainable development is born. In my opinion a good attempt to take part of the mentioned responsibility was the book edited by PhD Joanna Marszałek-Kawa from Univeristy of Nicolaus Copernicus in Torun, Poland.

Subjetividade e diferença: implicações para os estudos interculturais em educação
Authors: Bona Juliano , Bona Camila Thaisa Alves , Luna José Marcelo Freitas de
Published: November 2019

Em nosso momento histórico, parece ser consenso o fato de que vivemos em um mundo de diversidades culturais, sendo os seus aspectos geográficos objetos de pesquisa na área dos Estudos Culturais desde, pelo menos, o início do século XX. Para além desse foco, os estudos interculturais em educação, particularmente, analisam as relações que podem ser construídas entre as diferentes culturas. Os estudos de Candau (2002) permitem-nos afirmar que a construção dessas relações exige uma percepção particular do conceito de diferença em diferentes níveis. Em torno desta problemática, o objetivo geral deste artigo é analisar a relação entre o conceito de diferença e os estudos interculturais em educação. Trata-se de um texto ensaístico. Analisamos, inicialmente, o conceito de diferença e seus pressupostos subjetivos, no que se refere à percepção da realidade a partir de uma lógica dos sentidos, e, em nível de linguagem, na relação entre sentido e significação. Logo em seguida, aproximamos o conceito de diferença e analisamos as suas implicações para os estudos interculturais em educação.

La aplicabilidad de los eximentes de responsabilidad disciplinaria en Colombia
Authors: Paternina Sierra Jaidith Milena
Published: November 2019

Las causales eximentes de responsabilidad disciplinaria consagradas en nuestra normatividad son una expresión de los derechos y garantías a favor de los investigados, ya que al presentarse estos eventos se impide la configuración del elemento responsabilidad, quedando incompleta su estructura jurídica, ocasionando por ende unos efectos que se traducen en que la persona investigada queda exceptuada del deber de responder. La aplicabilidad de estas causales en Colombia es muy frecuente, reflejando las circunstancias o particularidades de carácter exterior que acontecen en el entorno de los servidores públicos, y dentro de las sobresalen las de mayor complejidad o utilización de acuerdo a la jurisprudencia y decisiones de algunas autoridades disciplinarias, figurando la fuerza mayor y el caso fortuito, en estricto cumplimiento de un deber constitucional o legal de mayor importancia que el sacrificado y la convicción errada e invencible de que su conducta no constituye falta disciplinaria.

Published: November 2019

La presente investigación tuvo por objetivos: 1) caracterizar las actitudes hacia la estadística en las etapas iniciales, intermedias y finales de pregrados en Ciencias Económico Administrativas y, 2) determinar las aplicaciones que los alumnos dan a la estadística durante sus estudios universitarios. Participaron 159 estudiantes (69.18% mujeres y 30.81% varones) de carreras como Recursos Humanos, Administración, Negocios Internacionales y Mercadotecnia, los cuales contestaron un cuestionario de diferencial semántico integrado por siete pares de adjetivos extremos con base en una escala de -3 a +3. Los resultados mostraron que, durante las tres etapas de las carreras (inicial, intermedia y final), las actitudes hacia la estadística se mantienen algo positivas (con promedios de 0.73, 0.94 y 1.00, respectivamente) y que, aunque se percibe su importancia, son algo tensas para los estudiantes. Asimismo, se encontró que dichas actitudes son utilizadas para comprender información, calcular datos e investigar. Además, se discuten posibles explicaciones para tales hallazgos, por ejemplo, las estrategias didacticas de los docentes y la historia académica de los estudiantes.

Published: November 2019

In the processing of lead bullion necessary to separate the metal from impurities – copper, tin, antimony, arsenic, silver, bismuth, and with the possible use of environmentally friendly, technologically effi cient and cost-eff ective high performance vacuum distillation. To analyze the behavior of multicomponent alloy processing, pre-selection of temperature and pressure of the system, evaluate the eff ectiveness of component separation in a vacuum distillation using phase diagrams temperature–composition “of T–h,” pressure–composition “R–x”. The aim of this work was to calculate the equilibrium “gas–liquid” VLE (vapor liquid equilibrium), including the dependence of phase composition on temperature (T-x) and pressure (P-x) for Sn-Sb alloy during vacuum distillation on the basis of the three-dimensional model of molecular interaction MIVM (мolecular interaction volume model), as well as determination of thermodynamic parameters of the process. In the temperature range 823-1073 to the calculated saturated vapor pressure (Pa) Sn (3.32.10–9–8.12.10–5) and Sb (3.954–273.66). High values of the ratio р*Sb / р*Sn = (1190–3.37).106 and separation factor logβSb = 6.25–9.44 create a theoretical background for the selective separation of these metals by vacuum distillation, when the antimony is enriched in the gas phase (βSb > 1), and tin – liquid. The mole fraction of tin in the gas phase уSn = (1–5000).10–9 increases with increasing temperature 823-1073 K and the molar fraction of the metal in the alloy хSn = 0.1–0.9. Using the MIVM model calculated activity coeffi cients of antimony γSb = 0.439–0.992 and tin γSn = 0.433–0.992 for Sn-Sb alloy with diff erent composition in the investigated temperature range. For phase diagrams VLE can be used by the lever rule (rule lines) to help predict quantities of substances, residues and sublimates at a predetermined temperature. For the phase boundary “liquid–gas” Sn-Sb alloy the values of the excess Gibbs energy, enthalpy and entropy: 􀈂 􀜩􀯠 􀮾 = 0.744–2.096 kJ/mol; – = 0.763–2.166 kJ/mol; = 0.0181–0.0891 J/mol.K. VLE phase diagrams alloys provide the necessary information for the design of technological parameters in industrial production, vacuum metallurgy, as well as to predict temperature and pressure process for obtaining Sn – and Sbcontaining products of a given composition

Published: November 2019

Quality, reliability, and service durability of mill rolls are critical factors determining the quality of finished products and efficiency of rolling mills. The main problem that arises in the course of production of steel forged mill rolls is selection of reasonable conditions of heat treatment. As far as the size of the grain with an original structure and the pattern of distribution of separate structural components within the billet play a significant role in formation of final properties of the article, the objectives of this work are studying the heat treatment influence on the microstructure and hardness of steel mill rolls and development of reasonable process conditions on the basis of obtained data, in particular: determining the optimum conditions of primary heat treating the cold rolling mill rolls after their forging to reach the homogeneous structure and reduce the carbide grid score and carbide liquation; determining the optimum conditions of secondary thermal treatment of cold rolling mill rolls to provide the hardness within the range of about 300 HB, favorable structure for industrial frequency current hardening and reduction of carbide network score and carbide liquation; determining the hardening temperature, holding time and cooling rate to obtain the optimum structure and hardness within the range of 650-700 HB. Optimization of heat treatment conditions and analysis of steel microstructure have been performed with the application of cylindrical items (diameter 30 mm, height 20 mm) cut from the sample and template. Based on the study findings some microscopic images of steel microstructure after application of certain heat treatment conditions have been made and data on carbide network and current grain evaluation have been obtained
Between ‘Labour Migration’ and ‘New European Mobilities’: Motivations for Migration of Southern and Eastern Europeans in the EU
Authors: Fischer-Souan Maricia
Published: November 2019

This article investigates in comparative perspective different accounts of the motivations for migration offered by Bulgarian, Romanian, Italian and Spanish nationals living in another EU country, or planning to move. In-depth interviews yield a range of accounts for the decision to leave the home-country, from narrowly defined economic motivations, professional and ‘qualitative’ labour market considerations, to desires for cultural/lifestyle exploration. Both individual and country-level factors are mobilised in motivational accounts, which are also set against the backdrop of major external shocks, such as the 2007 enlargement of the European Union and the 2008 global financial crisis. Findings highlight the need to consider the interplay between macro and individual-level factors—that is, perceptions of cultural, economic, political and societal structures as well as individual characteristics—in studying migratory behaviour. Moreover, the findings to a certain extent support the distinction between the ‘classic’ labour migration behaviour of Bulgarian and Romanian respondents and the ‘new European mobilities’ of Italian and Spanish participants, who emphasise more the overlapping professional, affective, cultural and quality of life considerations that shape the decision to move. However, convergence across groups may be expected in the future as East-West movers become more socialised into ‘new’ cultures of European mobility and as South–North migration patterns increasingly reinforce some of the ‘periphery-core’ dynamics of contemporary intra-EU mobility.
Receiving Country Investments and Acquisitions: How Migrants Negotiate the Adaptation to Their Destination
Authors: Demireva Neli
Published: November 2019

This article looks at the adaptation patterns of EU migrants—Bulgarian, Romanian, Italian and Spanish—in European markets, and uses several interviews of overseas non-EU migrants in the UK and Germany. The interaction of migrants with the receiving context is being considered. Drawing on several interviews with actual migrants and recruitment agents collected in the GEMM (Growth, Equal Opportunities, Migration and Markets) project in four major immigrant societies (Germany, UK, Spain and Italy), this article focuses on the receiving country acquisitions that facilitate the adaptation of migrants along their journeys. EU migrants have very different adaptation strategies to non-EU migrants, and this article comments on the differences observed as well as on the differences between them according to skill levels. Migrant adaptation challenges are acknowledged and studied dynamically. Thus, this unique data brings forward a multi-layered picture of the migrant adaptation process in Europe.
“Here, There, in between, beyond…”: Identity Negotiation and Sense of Belonging among Southern Europeans in the UK and Germany
Authors: Quassoli Fabio , Dimitriadis Iraklis
Published: November 2019

Whilst most of the research on intra-EU mobility has mainly focused on the reasons behind young Southern Europeans leaving their home countries, and secondly on their experiences within the new context, little is known about their sense of belonging and identities. This article aims to fill this gap by exploring Italian and Spanish migrants’ social identity repositioning and the cultural change characterising their existential trajectories. Drawing on 69 semi-structured interviews with Italians and Spaniards living in London and Berlin, this article shows that the sense of belonging to one or more political communities and boundary work are related to individual experiences and can change due to structural eventualities such as the Brexit referendum. While identification with the host society is rare, attachment to the home country is quite common as a result of people’s everyday experiences. Cultural changes and European/cosmopolitan identification are linked to exposure to new environments and interaction with new cultures, mostly concerning those with previous mobility experience, as well as to a sentiment of non-acceptance in the UK. However, such categories are not rigid, but many times self-identification and attachments are rather blurred also due to the uncertainty around the duration of the mobility project. This makes individual factors (gender, age, family status, employment, education) that are often considered as determinants of identification patterns all but relevant.

The state of the glutathione-dependent link of the antioxidant blood system of rats under obesity development and with the compatible consumption of the kidney bean (P. vulgaris) pods extract was studied. Glutathione system forms functional basis of organism antioxidant defense system and disturbances in its work can lead to a number of serious cytotoxic and destructive lesions. Glutathione system constituent elements has its own glutathione and enzymes, which catalyze the reaction of its reverse transformation. These include glutathione peroxidase, glutathione transferase, and glutathione reductase. It is known that the water kidney bean (P. vulgaris) pods extract has hypoglycemic properties. However, complex studies of the polyfunctional action of this extract in obesity are absent. The obtained results indicate a decrease in the overall potential of the glutathione system in animals on a high-calorie diet. It has been established that glutathione peroxidase activity (GP) decreases in the serum of rats under experimental obesity, also glutathione transferase (GT) and glutathione reductase (GR) activity increase compared to the corresponding values in control animals. Our results demonstrated the concentration decrease of recovered glutathione (GSH) under consumption of high-calorie diet compared to the control. The findings after 6-th weeks of kidney bean (P. vulgaris) pods extract consumption indicate the positive modulating effect of this extract on the content of GSH and the activity of GP, GT and GR in rats with the obesity development. Probably, the consumption of this extract leads to attraction of the investigated components of the antioxidant system to the reactions of neutralization of toxic free radical compounds that were formed against the background of the development of obesity. Further studies may serve as the basis for the development of new therapeutic or medicinal preparations that based on the kidney bean (P. vulgaris) pods extract, because of still no consensus on the treatment of obesity.
Morphological changes of the rats pancreas after the joint influence of the dosed normobaric hypoxia and melatonin
Authors: Yanko R.
Published: November 2019

The aim of the study was to investigate the morphological changes in the rat's pancreas after the combined effect of dosed normobaric hypoxia (DNG) and melatonin. The study was carried out in the spring on 24 male rats of the Wistar line. The experimental animals were daily given a hypoxic gas mixture (12 % oxygen in nitrogen) in a intermittent mode: 15 minutes deoxygenation / 15 minutes reoxygenation for 2 hours. The same rats were daily administered orally with exogenous melatonin at 10.00 at a dose of 5 mg/kg. The duration of the experiment was 28 days. From the pancreas tissue, histological preparations were prepared according to a standard procedure. The morphometry was performed using the computer program "Image J". For the first time it was revealed that the 28-day combined effect of DNG and melatonin results in an increase in the size of the acinus, exocrine cells, epithelial height, and nucleolus hyperplasia in the pancreas. The change in these parameters may indicate activation of the exocrine function of the gland. The effect of intermittent hypoxia and melatonin also increase (to an insignificant extent) the activity of the endocrine part of the pancreas. This is evidenced by the large size of the Langerhans islets and the number of endocrinocytes placed in them. In the experimental animals was noted a decrease in the thickness of the interlobular and interacinus interlayers connective tissue, which can be considered as a manifestation of the mechanism of structural adaptation, which facilitates the transport of oxygen and nutrients to the parenchymal elements of the gland. The combined effect of DNG and melatonin has morphological signs of increased activity of exocrine and endocrine (to a lesser extent) parts of the pancreas.
