The Municipality of Štrpce (Southern Serbia) is an area located within the Šar Mountain National Park, and due to its great ecological importance, it was necessary to analyze the terrain susceptibility to the occurrence of natural hazards. The main goal of this research is to determine the locations that are most susceptible to natural hazards (earthquakes, erosion, torrential flooding, snow avalanches and forest fires) on the territory of the municipality of Štrpce. By utilizing the geographic information systems (GIS), the first step was to analyze seismic hazard for a 475-year return period (VII-VIII MCS for the observed area). The second step was to determine the intensity of erosion and total sediment production using erosion potential model (EPM). The mean erosion coefficient is quantified to 0.34, and the total sediment production is 131.795 m3/year. The third step was the analysis potential of torrential floods using the Flash Flood Potential Index (FFPI). This method indicated that 43.33% of the municipality is highly susceptible, and 18.86% is very highly susceptible to torrential floods. The Avalanches Potential Index (AVAPI) method was used for the fourth step which involved determining the area prone to the occurrence and movement of avalanches. It was determined that 9.1 km2 of the municipality area is susceptible to this type of hazard. The fifth step included the analysis of the terrain susceptibility to the occurrence of forest fires. More than half of the municipal area (52.4%) is highly susceptible, and 8.5% is very highly susceptible to forest fires. Following the five criteria analysis, weight coefficients were assigned for each of the analyzed parameters using the analytical hierarchy process (AHP), giving the result of the total susceptibility of the territory of Štrpce to natural hazards. Results indicated that over 45% of the municipality is highly or very highly prone to various natural hazards. This paper presents a significant step towards better understanding and more adequate management and mitigation of natural hazards not only in the investigated area, but on regional and national levels as well.

Published: May 2021

The axis of highway tunnels constructed in mountains under complex geological conditions is usually orthogonal to the section of potential landslide. The tunnel construction may lead to landslide, which then may result in the deformation and/or cracking of tunnels. Therefore, it is very important and practical for tunnel projects to study the complex interaction mechanism between orthogonal tunnel and landslide and provide appropriate prevention measures for tunnel. This paper, on the base of geological survey, on-site monitoring and numerical simulation, analyzed the deformation and reason of an ancient landslide revived by tunnel construction and studied the prevention measures for tunnel. The results show that the reason for the revival of the ancient landslide resulted mainly from the tunnel construction through sliding surface, and the ancient landslide is generally stable because most landslide deformation occurred beyond the tunnel and in the upper part of landslide. The numerical simulation was used to optimize the tunnel prevention scheme by the analysis to the stability, stresses and deformation of landslide based on stress-strain control theory. The original anti-slide pile design was cancelled and finally the tunnel is reinforced by upper soil removal and moving upper soil into toe. This tunnel has successfully completed and are under good operation. The used prevention measures were proven to be effective according to the monitoring data about displacements and stress of landslide and tunnel during operation period, and saved about seven million US$. The research results in this paper may offer a beneficial reference to projects with similar geological conditions.

Published: May 2021

Background: No study in inpatient or outpatient nurse staffing research have examined nurse staffing using the measure of the World Health Organization’s Workload Indicator of Staffing Needs, despite this being a commonly used tool to make staffing decisions across various healthcare settings around the world. This study aimed to understand the relationship between nurse staffing in HIV clinics and the patient outcomes of viral load documentation and viral load suppression in order to better understand the best ways of staffing nurses to provide the best HIV services to clients. Methods: This study modeled nurse staffing measured as the Workload Indicator of Staffing Needs, with two HIV outcomes of viral load documentation and viral load suppression in remotely located 66 hospitals, health centers and clinics in Northern Namibia. Various control variables were taken into account. Results: Sufficient nurse staffing based on the Workload Indicator of Staffing Needs was associated with better viral load documentation, however overly sufficient staffing made no difference on viral load documentation. There was no association between sufficient staffing by the Workload Indicator of Staffing Needs and viral load suppression. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that staffing sufficiently by the Workload Indicator of Staffing Needs was associated with better HIV outcomes of viral load documentation and viral load suppression at the facility level. This suggests that policy makers should continue using the Workload Indicator of Staffing Needs tool to staff their clients in order to have the best HIV outcomes possible at their facilities.
Influence of Organic Ammonium Derivatives on the Equilibria Between of NH4+, NO2- and NO3- Ions in River Waters
Authors: Spataru Petru
Published: May 2021

The braking effect of the ammonium derivatives on the natural aquatic environment varies dramatically with the number and nature of organic radical substitutions at nitrogen atom, particularly with their structure, composition and genesis. The most common discrepancy in their toxic effect are showing the natural and synthetic amines. For instance, the values of the maximum allowable concentration (MAC) of the derivatives of the natural origin for drinking water exceed the MAC of the synthetic ones by two orders. On the other hand, it has been found out that 1- naphtylamine (1-NA) inhibitory effect is associated to its toxicity. The Diethylamine (DEA) braking impact on the nitrification process is effectively lower than that of the toxicity. Our experiments show that the carbon-radicals of organic amines act as reducing agents. It is found that DEA decomposition leads to a high NH4+ ions (approx. 3.8 mg/L ammonium nitrogen) concentration in river water samples. By laboratory simulations two types of fixations by microbial organisms have been established: 1) absorption-desorption, the hydromicrobiotic reaction to ammonium (HMBRA) at the instantaneous increase of the concentration of ammonium ion in the river water (so-called shock/stress effect); 2) nitrogen fixation stimulated by a certain concentration (0.05mg/L) of a 1-NA and other amines.

Published: May 2021

Background: To test the efficacy of a documented 5-week karate training intervention for rehabilitation and neuroprotection in older adults. Methods: Sixteen older adults (8 male, 8 female, age 59-90y), with or without chronic conditions, participated a 5-week karate training intervention. Dynamic balance, hand grip, ankle plantarflexion force, Timed Up and Go (TUG), and spinal cord excitability (via the soleus H-reflex) were assessed pre- and post-intervention. Results: Participants completed 2437 steps, 1762 turns, 3585 stance changes, 2047 punches, 2757 blocks, and 1253 strikes. Karate training improved dynamic postural performance. The group average time for dynamic postural reaction was reduced (time to target (-13.6%, p = 0.020) and time to center (-8.3%, p =0.010)). TUG was unchanged when considering the entire group (p=0.779), but reductions were found in 5 neurologically intact older adults (-4.5 to -8.6%; p<0.05) and increased for 1 Parkinson’s Disease participant (3.8%, p<0.05). Strength increased in left arm (7.9%, p=0.037), right leg (28.8%, p=0.045), and left leg (13.3%, p=0.024) for the group. Spinal cord excitability remained unchanged across the group but 3 neurologically intact older adults (215.4%, 47.9%, -35.9%; p<0.05) and 2 Parkinson’s Disease participants (152.4%, 195.3%; p<0.05) had modulated H-reflex amplitudes. Conclusion: 5-weeks of karate training delivered in a fashion to mimic community-level programs provided an effective therapeutic “dose” to improve balance and strength in older adults. Whole-body training embodied in martial arts enhanced neuromuscular function and postural integration. Further quantitative work should explore threshold dose and development of martial arts interventions as functional fitness for older adults.

Published: May 2021

Many bird species rely on the ecological functions of rice field microhabitats. However, recent intensive practices are causing rice fields to provide fewer suitable habitats. This study examined bird microhabitat usage and the effects of intensive use of chemical substances on it. Eco-friendly and conventional rice fields were surveyed from January 2014 to December 2016, and the species presence, the number of birds, and the location of observed microhabitats were recorded. It was found that shorebirds and herons used more eco-friendly rice paddies with fewer or no chemical substances, while waterfowl used the paddy microhabitat more than the other microhabitats, regardless of the amount of chemical substances used. It was confirmed that land birds used ditches or roads in conventional rice fields more than those in fields that used chemical substances. Chemical substances affected bird assemblages differently. Consequently, bird assemblages used habitats differently depending on the farm crop cultivation as well as food abundance. These results provided valuable information useful for managing rice fields that serve as habitats for birds.

Published: May 2021

In thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair, repairing the visceral and segmental arteries is challenging. Although there is a pre-hand-sewn and multi-branched graft based on the conventional image-based technique, it has shortcomings in precisely positioning and directing the visceral and segmental arteries. Here, we introduce two new reconstruction techniques using patient-specific 3D-printed graft reconstruction guides: 1) model-based technique that presents the projected aortic graft, visualizing the main aortic body and its major branches and 2) guide-based technique in which the branching vessels in the visualization model are replaced by marking points identifiable by tactile sense. We demonstrate the effectiveness by evaluating conventional and new techniques based on accuracy, marking time requirement, reproducibility, and results of survey to surgeons on the perceived efficiency and efficacy. The graft reconstruction guides cover the segmentation, design, fabrication, post-processing, and clinical application of open surgical repair of thoracoabdominal aneurysm, and proved to be efficient for accurately reconstructing customized grafts.

Published: May 2021

Background

Previous meta-analysis of heterogeneous surgical cohorts demonstrated reduction in postoperative pain with perioperative intravenous dexamethasone, but none have addressed adults undergoing elective abdominal surgery.
Objective

To determine the impact of intravenous perioperative dexamethasone on postoperative pain in adults undergoing elective abdominal surgery under general anaesthesia.
Methods

This review was prospectively registered on the international prospective register of systematic reviews (CRD42020176202). Electronic databases Medical Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), Exerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), (CINAHL) Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science and trial registries were searched to January 28 2021 for randomised controlled trials, comparing dexamethasone to placebo or alternative antiemetic, that reported pain. The primary outcome was pain score, and secondary outcomes were time to first analgesia, opioid requirements and time to post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) discharge.
Results

Fifty-two studies (5768 participants) were included in the meta-analysis. Pain scores ≤4 hours were reduced in patients who received dexamethasone at rest (mean difference (MD), -0.54, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.72 to -0.35, I2 = 81%) and on movement (MD -0.42, 95% CI -0.62 to -0.22, I2 = 35 ). In the dexamethasone group 4–24 hour pain scores were less at rest (MD -0.31, 95% CI -0.47 to -0.14, I2 = 96) and on movement (MD -0.26, 95% CI -0.39 to -0.13, I2 = 29) and pain scores ≥24 hours were reduced at rest (MD -0.38, 95% CI -0.52 to -0.24, I2 = 88) and on movement (MD -0.38, 95% CI -0.65 to -0.11, I2 = 71). Time to first analgesia (minutes) was increased (MD 22.92, 95% CI 11.09 to 34.75, I2 = 98), opioid requirements (mg oral morphine) decreased (MD -6.66, 95% CI -9.38 to -3.93, I2 = 88) and no difference in time to PACU discharge (MD -3.82, 95% CI -10.87 to 3.23, I2 = 59%).
Conclusions

Patients receiving dexamethasone had reduced pain scores, postoperative opioid requirements and longer time to first analgesia. Dexamethasone is an effective analgesic adjunct for patients undergoing abdominal surgery.

Authors: Khalaf Marwa M. , Hassanein Emad H.M. , Shalkami Abdel-Gawad S. , Hemeida Ramadan A.M. , Mohamed Wafaa R.
Published: May 2021

Background:

Methotrexate (MTX) is used potently for a wide range of diseases. However,
hepatic intoxication by MTX hinders its clinical use.

Objectives:

The present study was conducted to investigate the diallyl disulfide (DADS) ability to
ameliorate MTX-induced hepatotoxicity.

Methods:

Thirty-two rats were randomly divided into four groups: normal control, DADS (50
mg/kg/day, orally), MTX (single i.p. injection of 20 mg/kg) and DADS+MTX. Liver function biomarkers,
histopathological examinations, oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis biomarkers
were investigated. Besides, an in vitro cytotoxic activity study was conducted to explore the modulatory
effects of DADS on MTX cytotoxic activity using Caco-2, MCF-7, and HepG2 cells.

Results:

DADS significantly reduced the increased serum activities of ALT, AST, ALP, and LDH.
These results were confirmed by the alleviation of liver histopathological changes. It restored the
decreased GSH content and SOD activity, while significantly decreased MTX-induced elevations
in both MDA and NO2
- contents. The hepatoprotective effects were mechanistically mediated
through the up-regulation of hepatic Nrf-2 and the down-regulation of Keap-1, P38MAPK, and NF-
κB expression levels. In addition, an increase in Bcl-2 level with a decrease in the expression of
both Bax and caspase-3 was observed. The in vitro study showed that DADS increased MTX antitumor
efficacy.

Conclusions:

DADS potently alleviated MTX-induced hepatotoxicity through the modulation of
Keap-1/Nrf-2, P38MAPK/NF-κB and apoptosis signaling pathways and effectively enhanced the
MTX cytotoxic effects, which could be promising for further clinical trials.
Pengaruh Pupuk Kalsium dan Kalium terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Kualitas Hasil Sawi Hijau (Brassica rapa L.)
Authors: Aryandhita Monica Intan , Kastono Dody
Published: May 2021

Mustard (Brassica rapa L.) is one of vegetable that cultivated and consumed by people in Indonesia regions. Using calcium fertilizer in mustard cultivation is less important, so that it is done when symptoms of calcium deficiency affect the quality of crop yield such as tip burn. Calcium fertilization could overcome calcium deficiency, but plant will undergo potassium deficiency as side effect. Foliar application of calsium fertilizer was used to avoid negative interaction between calcium and phosphate in the soil so that good quality yield and growth could be produced. A research was conducted on August-October 2019 at Kebun Percobaan Tri Dharma, Agriculture Faculty, Gadjah Mada University, Banguntapan, Bantul, Yogyakarta. The research used RCBD with two factors which were the concentration of calcium fertilizer (0, 2, 4, and 6 g/l) and the second factor was the dosage of KCl fertilizer (0, 100, 200, and 300 kg/ha). Concentration showed amount of calcium fertilizer mixed in a liter of water and dosage showed amount of fertilizer applied per plant. Result of the research showed that interaction between calcium concentration and phosphate dosage did not increase mustard growth and yield but had potensial in increasing texture and taste of mustard by applying 4 and 6 g/l calcium concentration with 100 kg/ha phosphate dosage, while 2 and 4 g/l calcium concentration with 200 kg/ha dosage could increasing sweet taste in mustard. Calcium fertilizer concentration increased mustard consumption index. The more amount of phosphate fertilizer dosage applied (> 300 kg/ha) could decrease mustard fresh weight

Published: May 2021

Bovine leptospirosis is a bacterial disease that affects cattle herds,
causing economic losses due to reproductive problems, which require
expensive treatments. The main source of transmission for cattle is
still uncertain, but it has been described that rodents and bats can
play an important role in the transmission cycle by being maintenance
hosts for the pathogenic species of the bacterium and spreading it
through urine. In this study, we characterize possible risk areas for
bovine leptospirosis exposure in the state of Veracruz, Mexico, based on
the geographical distribution of flying (bats) and terrestrial (rodents
and opossums) wild hosts of Leptospira sp. reported in Mexico in
addition with climatic, geographic, soil characteristics, land use and
human activities variables (environmental variables). We used a
generalized linear regression model (GLM) to understand the association
between the frequency of anti- Leptospira sp. antibodies (a proxy
of exposure to) in cattle herds exposed to Leptospira, the
favorability of wild hosts of Leptospira as well as the
environmental variables. The parameterized model explains 12.3% of the
variance. The frequency of anti- Leptospira sp. antibodies
exposoure in cattle herds was associated with elevation, geographic
longitude, pH of the soil surface and environmental favorability for the
presence of rodents, opossums, and bats. The variation in exposure is
mainly explained by a longitudinal gradient (6.4% of the variance) and
the favorability-based indices for wild hosts (9.6 % of the variance).
Describing the possible risks for exposure to Leptospira in an
important and neglected livestock geographical region, we provide
valuable information to the selection of areas for diagnosis and
prevention of this relevant disease.

Published: May 2021

The Aim: This prospective, randomised controlled study aimed to
investigate the efficacy and respiratory effects of postoperative pain
management with erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in patients undergoing
percutaneous nephrolithotomy surgery. Methods: A total of 60 ASA I-II
patients aged 18–65 years, scheduled to undergo percutaneous
nephrolithotomy (PCNL) were included. Patients were randomized either to
the ESPB or control group. Ultrasound-guided ESPB with 15mL 0.5%
bupivacaine at the T11 level was performed preoperatively using the
in-plane technique in the ESP group. In both groups, 1gr of intravenous
paracetamol was administered intraoperatively. Postoperative pain and
agitation was evaluated using VAS, Dynamic VAS at 0, 6 and 24 hours and
the Riker sedation-agitation scale at 0th Hours after surgery. Peak
expiratory flow rate(PEFR) and SPO2 were measured in preoperative
examination and at the 0th, 6th, 24th hours postoperatively. In the
postoperative period, intravenous tramadol (100mg) was administered as a
rescue analgesic when VAS ≥ 4. Time and number of the rescue analgesias,
mobilization time and length of hospital stay were also recorded and
analyzed. Results: A significantly lower VAS and DVAS were observed at
0th, 6th, 24th hours in the ESPB group (p < 0.05 for each
timepoint). Also number of and time to rescue analgesia decreased in the
ESPB group (p< 0.05 and 0.01 respectively).
Postoperative/preoperative PEFR ratio was lower and there were more

analgesia in patients who underwent PCNL comparing to intravenous
analgesia.
Global existence and energy decay of solutions for a wave equation with a time-varying delay term
Authors: Aissa Benguessoum
Published: May 2021

We consider, in a bounded domain, a certain wave equation with a weak internal time-varying delay term. Under appropriate conditions, we prove global existence of solutions by the Faedo-Galerkin method and establish a decay rate estimate for the energy using the multiplier method.
Four Bosons EM Conservation Laws
Authors: Doria R. M. , Soares I.
Published: May 2021

Electromagnetism is expressed from two basic postulates. They are light invarianceand charge conservation. At this work one extends the Maxwell scenario from macroscopic to microscopic electromagnetism by following the elementary particles electric charge microscopic behavior. It yields a triune electric charge interrelationship. Three charges {+, 0, −} be exchanged through a vector bosons quadruplet. It is called Four Bosons Electromagnetism. A systemic EM physics appears to be understood. Maxwell photon is not enough for describing the microscopic electric charge physics. An extension for  electromagnetic energy is obtained. The fields quadruplet {Aµ, Uµ, Vµ±} are the porters of electromagnetic energy. They are the usual photon Aµ, massive photon Uµ and two charged photons Vµ±, A new understanding on EM phenomena has to be considered. A set determinism based on granular and collective fields is developed. A space-time evolution associated to a whole.Conservation laws are studied. The EM phenomena is enlarged to three charges interchanges to {+, 0, −}. Two novelties appear. New features on nonlinear fields acting as own sources and on electric charge physics. Properties as conservation, conduction, transmission, interaction are extended to a systemic electromagnetism. A whole conservation law for electric charge emerges from three charges interwoven. Electric charge has a systemic behavior. Although there is no Coulomb law for zero electric charge, the Four Bosons Electromagnetism contains an EM energy which provides a neutral electromagnetism. Particles with zero charge {Aµ, Uµ} are carrying EM energy.
Another consideration is on EM energy being transported by four nonlinear fields. A new physicality appears. The abelian nonlinearity generates fields charges. Fields are working as own sources through mass terms, trilinear and quadrilinear interactions, spin couplings. Consequently the photon is more than being a consequence from electric charge oscillations. It is able to generate its own charge. Introduce the meaning of photonics.Thus, electric charge is no more the isolate electromagnetic source. There are another conservation laws. Fields sources appear through corresponding equations of motion, Bianchi identities, energy-momentum, Noether laws and angular momentum conservation laws. They move EM to a fields charges dependence. Together with electric charge they carrythe electromagnetic flux. Supporting the Ahranov-Bohm experiment of potential fields as primitive entities.

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest prezentacja aktywności marzenio-twórczej podejmowanej przez osoby w okresie późnej dorosłości w oparciu o wyniki badań własnych, w którychuczestniczyło 10 osób (5 kobiet i 5 mężczyzn) w wieku powyżej 60 r.ż. Materiał badawczy pozyskany został przy pomocy pełnego narracyjnego wywiadu autobiograficznego, wybranychkart wchodzących w skład narracyjnej gry (auto)biograficznej W osiemdziesiąt historii dookoła życia Urszuli Tokarskiej oraz autorskiego Testu Zdań Niedokończonych.

Analiza materiału pozwoliła na dokonanie charakterystyki aktualnych marzeń seniorów oraz opisanie relacji, w jakiej pozostają do własnych marzeń. Uzyskane wyniki umożliwiły sformułowanie stadialnego modelu rozwoju marzenia oraz wyróżnienie nowej kategorii marzenia nazwanego marzeniem generacyjnym. Wnioski płynące ze zrealizowanego projektu badawczego odsłaniają potencjalne możliwości aplikacyjne zarówno w obszarze psychologii wspomagania rozwoju człowieka dorosłego, jak i optymalizacji komunikacji międzypokoleniowej oraz doskonalenia narzędzi umożliwiających poznanie człowieka oraz podejmowanie oddziaływań psychologicznych w obszarze gerontologii narracyjnej.
Satysfakcja z życia u osób trenujących i nietrenujących karate
Authors: Potoczny Wiktor
Published: May 2021

Badania nad zadowoleniem z życia oraz dobrostanem psychicznym to szeroki i wciąż rozwijający się obszar psychologii. Karate jako specyficzna aktywność fizyczna może wiązać sięz satysfakcją z życia. Celem badania był pomiar poziomu zadowolenia z życia u osób regularnie trenujących karate, w porównaniu z osobami niepodejmującymi regularnych aktywnościfizycznych oraz zbadanie relacji pomiędzy czasem trwania i częstotliwością treningu a poziomem satysfakcji z życia.

Po przebadaniu 112 osób, dobranych celowo do dwóch równolicznych grup (osoby regularnie trenujące karate vs. nietrenujące) analiza przy użyciu Skali Satysfakcji z Życia (SWLS) wykazała, że poziom satysfakcji z życia u osób regularnie trenujących karate jest istotnie wyższy. W badaniu wykazano także dodatnią korelację pomiędzy stażem treningowym a satysfakcją z życia. Związek pomiędzy częstotliwością treningu a satysfakcją z życia okazał się nieistotny. Otrzymane rezultaty poszerzają wiedzę na temat zadowolenia z życia w odniesieniu do aktywności fizycznych oraz mogą stanowić podstawę do prowadzenia dalszych analiz.

Fish farming is a job that many Indonesian people do, especially in villages. The nature of fish that is able to adapt quickly to transfer from pond to pond makes many residents choose to breed fish over other livestock. Many types of fish can be cultivated well, but most people choose to cultivate goldfish. Goldfish have an economic value that is quite tempting for the community. There are some fish that have a higher economic value, but people are more extra in maintaining them, for example in terms of feed. Goldfish can be fed only when the sun is hot. If the sun does not come out, then the goldfish should not be fed because it can cause the fish to die. Besides that, goldfish only need water flowing into the pond for fish oxygen. The number of people who breed fish, there are also many irresponsible people. The reason is, when the fish begin to grow up, many fish begin to disappear, making people nervous and hot. Based on the above problems, it provides a very potential opportunity to create a tool that can overcome community unrest. Fish farming theft detection tool which is an innovative tool to overcome or find out the perpetrators of theft. Thus, hopefully the tools used can reduce the risk of stealing fish and reduce the losses of fish cultivators.

Authors: Raharjo Slamet , Utomo Al Hadi
Published: May 2021

Electronic waste management in Indonesia is currently not a major concern for various parties and is relatively left behind when compared to developed countries. This study aims to evaluate the existing conditions of electronic waste management in Indonesia and compile recommendations for electronic waste management programs in Indonesia. This research was conducted by collecting primary data from questionnaires and collecting secondary data from the literature on electronic waste management in developed countries (United States, Japan, and Switzerland) and Indonesia. The collected data were compared and analyzed for compiling strategy in the SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats). Recommendation programs for electronic waste management in Indonesia were established based on SWOT Matrix. The evaluation results show that the existing conditions of electronic waste management in Indonesia are lagging compared to developed countries. The management recommendation program provided is the 4R programs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Remove) for electronic waste; Dropbox to collect electronic waste; Development of formal electronic waste management infrastructure; Industrial revitalization / private electronic waste recycling facilities; Development of electronic waste landfill; Application of economic instruments for electronic manufacturers; Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for electronic equipment; Trade-in for all electronic products; and cooperate with the informal sector.

The peculiarities of organization and problems of development of the territorial public self-government in the conditions of territorial differentiation
Authors: Medvedeva Nataliya
Published: May 2021

The development of the territorial public self-government (TPS) has been recently prompted by the adoption of national projects that imply additional activation of social resource in the territory. The capabilities of TPS in realization of social service procurement should expand. The article is dedicated to examination of territorial disparities in the development of territorial public self-government in Russia. The subject of this research is the organization of TPS in the conditions of regional differentiation. The branches of the territorial public self-government are unevenly distributed across the country, and their development potential is quite low. The novelty and practical significance of this work lie in the attempt to generalize the practices of implementation of TPS in various Russian regions (the constituent entities of the Russian Federation were allocated in proportion to the number of federal districts), as well as to outline the priority vectors in the development of TPS in the current context. The conducted comparative analysis allows concluding that despite the substantial differentiation in allocation of TPS branches across the country, the difficulties of its development in all indicated regions are similar: insufficient funding of TPS by the local self-governments, low interest in supporting TPS with the legal entity status, low social activity of the population along with the level of information awareness of the citizens on the forms of their participation in self-government. As a result, the capabilities of TPS in implementation of socioeconomic policy of the municipality are limited; the local authorities and TPS are not partners due to mutual distrust and low interest in the development of TPS as a social institution.

Authors: Trinadtsatko Anton Aleksandrovich
Published: May 2021

The object of this research is the process of sociocultural rehabilitation of the people with disabilities as an instrument for their social adaptation and integration. The subject of this research is performing art ad form of manifestation of social activity of the visually impaired people. The goal consists in compiling social portrait of a typical participant of inclusive theater for visually impaired people and establishing correlation between the theatrical activity of such people and their social activity in other spheres of life. Leaning on the analysis of scientific sources and own empirical research, the author attempts to compile an exemplary portrait of the visually impaired person participating in the inclusive theater for such invariant of persons with heath limitations. The author also drawn parallel between the social characteristics of the visually impaired people, their participation in theatrical activity and social activity in other spheres of life. The novelty of this work consists in compiling social portrait of the typical representative of inclusive theater for visually impaired people, which indicates that men with severe visual impairment in the age group 41-15, who have higher education, are employed,  attend cultural and sports events, have skills of artistic reflection of the surrounding world and creative potential, are more involved in such activities. Their theatrical activity is not so much an instrument of sociocultural rehabilitation, but rather a means of personal fulfillment and self-actualization through public participation in stage performances and receiving public recognition. The scientific value of the acquired results lies in the fact that based on formation of social portrait of an actor with visual impairment in the inclusive theater, the author proposes the vectors for conducting multidisciplinary studies of various invariants of the discredited stigma group of persons with health limitations in the context of reflection of their social characteristics and for improving the instrumental, artistic, and efficient components of art therapy.
