Problem nepopolnih pogodb in mehanizmi pogodbenih spodbud pri javnih naročilih
Authors: Kovač Mitja
Published: May 2019

Problemi javnega naročanja in z njimi povezane izbire učinkovitega pogodbenega mehanizma pri javnih naročilih gradbenih del so zaradi svojega izjemnega ekonomskega pomena vzbudili precejšno pozornost pravnoekonomske znanosti. Iz tega članka izhajajoča glavna priporočila pogodbene ekonomske analize so naslednja: (1) Trenutno uporabljani pogodbeni mehanizmi po nepotrebnem podaljšujejo izvedbeni čas, povzročajo negativne eksternalije, povečujejo izvedbene stroške, spodbujajo oportunistično obnašanje in moralni hazard pri ponudnikih in po nepotrebnem trošijo sredstva ter tako resno zmanjšujejo družbeno blaginjo. (2) Načelno mora tip predmeta javnega naročila določiti tudi izbiro pogodbenega mehanizma. (3) Iz asimetričnih informacij in visokih transakcijskih stroškov izvirajoča nepopolnost pogodb definira problem javnih naročil predvsem kot problem ex post pogodbenih in izvedbenih prilagoditev, ki so plod spremenjenih in nepredvidljivih okoliščin pri sami izpolnitvi. (4) Minimiziranje ex post transakcijskih stroškov s pomočjo cost-plus pogodb je potencialni in pogosto spregledani vir zniževanja skupnih stroškov izvedbe zapletenih javnih naročil. (5) Načelno naj se pogodbe s fiksno ceno uporabijo v primerih enostavnih projektov (enostavna preverljivosti izpolnitve in nepomembne potencialne nepopolnosti pogodb), ki jih naj spremlja visoka stopnja pogodbene, specifikacijske in izvedbene določnosti. (6) V primerih nepreverljivosti ali z njimi povezanih visokih stroškov preverjanja kakovosti izpolnitve naj se uporabijo pogodbe s ceno, ki se oblikuje glede na stroške izpolnitve. (7) Načelno naj se v primerih predvidene visoke stopnje pogodbene nepopolnosti (zapleteni projekti) in zaželene pogodbene in izvedbene fleksibilnosti uporabijo pogodbo s ceno, ki se oblikuje glede na stroške izpolnitve. (8) Za preprečevanje moralnega hazarda je nujna uporaba učinkov ugleda in multiplikativnih motivacijskih mehanizmov.
Konfliktni položaji med uradno osebo in stranko v postopku izdaje gradbenega dovoljenja
Authors: Oblak Ksenija
Published: May 2019

Postopek izdaje gradbenega dovoljenja je posebni upravni postopek, ki ga ureja Zakon o graditvi objektov (ZGO-1), subsidiarno pa Zakon o splošnem upravnem postopku (ZUP). Uradne osebe so pri vodenju gradbenega postopka soočene z usklajevanjem in odločanjem med javnim in zasebnim interesom, poleg tega so v postopku poleg vložnika zahtevka udeleženi tudi stranski udeleženci, kar lahko pripelje do uveljavljanja nasprotujočih si zahtevkov. Ravno zato so uradne osebe pri vodenju in odločanju vse bolj priča neprimernemu vedenju in ravnanju strank, njihovim pritiskom, ustrahovanjem in grožnjam. Cilj prispevka je prikazati dejavnike, ki onemogočajo, da bi bili postopki hitrejši in učinkovitejši in osvetliti pomen odnosa med uradno osebo ter stranko. Članek poleg razlogov, ki povzročajo nezadovoljstvo strank, s pomočjo izvedene ankete prikazuje neraziskano in neevidentirano področje nedopustnih in nezakonitih posegov v delo uradnih oseb pri vodenju in odločanju v postopku izdaje gradbenega dovoljenja.
Implementation of the Lisbon Strategy Targets at the Regional Level in the EU and Slovenia
Authors: Aristovnik Aleksander , Pungartnik Andrej
Published: May 2019

In 2000, the European Union set itself a target in the Lisbon Strategy to become the most dynamic, competitive and knowledge-based economy in the world in ten years, whereas during the mid-term review, which was held five years later, it redefined its two main objectives: creation of new and better jobs and achievement of stronger, lasting economic growth. This paper aims to study the current situation in the European Union and Slovenia regarding the implementation of the targets of the renewed Lisbon Strategy. The analysis focuses on establishing at what stage the EU is in the attainment of its goals and how successfully it has implemented the strategy at the regional level of the EU Member States. The basic tools in the analysis included the time-distance monitoring method and a presentation of the time lead or lag in the implementation of the selected Lisbon Strategy targets at the NUTS 2 regional level of the enlarged EU and Slovenia.
Social Responsibility and Governance-Management Process as a Basis of Excellence in Public Administration
Authors: Tomaževič Nina
Published: May 2019

An increasing number of public administration organisations are already aware of the fact that excellence is not only the domain of private sector organisations. They are looking for up-to-date management tools with which they would like to continuously improve operations and increase stakeholder satisfaction. This confirms the belief that approaches for managing private organisations are the same as for public organisations, the only difference (by now) being in the basic goal(s) of private and public sector organisations. The article presents definitions and descriptions of key fields whose understanding is important for the logical and systematic formation and use of an up-to-date excellence model for public administration. The proposed excellence model was formed and tested with the objective to contribute to the development of Slovenian public administration and a state as a whole.
Self-Concept of Leaders in Administrative Units
Authors: Buzeti Jernej , Stare Janez
Published: May 2019

Within the leadership process, the positive self-concept of a leader can have an impact on quality reciprocal relations with subordinates and on the conduct of the leader and the subordinates. The results of the research into the selfconcept of administrative unit leaders indicate that the most poorly expressed areas of self-concept were the social and physical self-concept, while the highest was the general self-concept. Since it is important for leaders to have well developed skills, especially social skills and skills for working with people, the result of the research into the social self-concept of leaders in central government bodies (administrative units) is an important indicator of leaders’ concepts of their own social image. The paper focuses on the self-concept of administrative unit leaders and presents results of research carried out in that field.
The State of E-Business in Slovenian Public Administration: The Case of Administrative Units
Authors: Jelenič Mitja , Vintar Mirko
Published: May 2019

Over the last few years e-government in Slovenia has experienced very rapid development, with the latest EU surveys showing that Slovenia is among the most advanced member states in this field. However, the actual use of public e-services lags far behind the growing supply. This paper offers a comparative analysis of the current state of affairs in this field in Slovenia, focusing on the country’s administrative units. That analysis is based on the results of empirical research into the administrative units’ e-business, which was carried out in the first half of 2009 by the Institute for Public Administration Informatisation at the Faculty of Administration. The research looked at e-business in the most typical areas of the administrative units’ work, such as internal affairs, the environment and physical planning, agriculture etc., which most accurately reveal the current state of e-business in Slovenia’s public administration, particularly insofar as it relates to operations with citizens. The paper also examines the e-business of administrative units in their internal operations and in operations with other administrative bodies. The final part includes a comparison of the results of the empirical research with the latest results from the EU Capgemini Benchmark study (Capgemini, 2009), as well as a number of other international studies.

Local Management and New Public Management
Authors: Bačlija Irena
Published: May 2019

Economic globalization, growingly differentiated and unstable markets, fiscal crises in light of increasing public expenditure are the elements of an uncertain future for local communities. The latter are captured in the growing demand of users or citizens for quality in public services and in the regulation of the state that (sometimes) limits the creative development and competition on a global market of local communities. In the context of this ever demanding environment functions local administration that has to be reformed in order to conform with the elements of this environment. The article presents the specifics of local management and alongside its reform process by the principles of new public management. Empirical part of the article explains findings of an extensive study of local administrations in the European Union and their reforms with implications that show the effects of reformed local administration on the effectiveness of the entire local community.

Published: May 2019

The automated global real‐time association of phase picks into seismic sources comes with unique challenges when simultaneously monitoring at local, regional, and global scales. High spatial variability in seismic station density, transitory seismic data availability, and time‐varying noise characteristics of individual stations must be considered in the design of an associator that is fast and accurate with a low false association rate. These challenges are particularly apparent at the U.S. Geological Survey National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC), which monitors seismicity in near‐real time on local, regional, and global scales using seismic data from roughly 2100 real‐time seismic stations. To fully leverage this large dataset, NEIC developed a standalone self‐configuring seismic phase associator, GLobal ASSociator 3 (GLASS3) that simultaneously processes variably scaled 3D association webs, each with a unique set of nucleation criteria (e.g., nucleation stack threshold). GLASS3 has many useful features for real‐time monitoring including its computational efficiency, instantaneous pick processing, and on‐the‐fly configurability such as the creation and removal of targeted association webs and updates to supporting station metadata. GLASS3 runs both as part of a real‐time event processing system and as a configurable standalone associator that can be applied to a large variety of seismic problems. Here, we describe the GLASS3 algorithm and demonstrate (including input data and configuration files) its use in associating phase‐ambiguous picks on multiple scales.

Régimen jurídico de plantación del viñedo y otros aspectos normativos del sector vitivinícola
Authors: Sánchez Hernández Ángel
Published: May 2019

La producción de vino con DOP tiene muchos retos de cara al futuro, pero quizá el principal sea el de conseguir mantener el prestigio de sus vinos, para lo cual es imprescindible contar con uva de calidad, pagando las bodegas de la DOP unos precios correctos a los viticultores por esas uvas capaces de mantener la diferenciación, la calidad y el prestigio de los vinos con DOP. Ahora bien, ésta debe crecer en el marco de una normativa de la UE que le asegura un crecimiento ordenado de sus plantaciones de viñedo para que mejore su competitividad, pero debe respetar a la vez sus principios, tomando como base lo que le viene caracterizando: su calidad. Las limitaciones a las nuevas plantaciones en el ámbito nacional y en particular las limitaciones de expedir autorizaciones en el ámbito regional que se contemplan con base en el Reglamento (UE) 1308/2013, son importantísimas para el sector vitivinícola.
Study of blood component therapy in obstetrics
Authors: Pancholi Nidhi
Published: May 2019

Background: Blood transfusion is a life saving measure. Various pregnancy complications and disorders of labor present as risk factors for extra blood loss during pregnancy and cause severe hemodynamic instability. This along with complications due to abortion (spontaneous or induced) and ruptured ectopic pregnancy show up as conditions needing transfusion in the day-to-day practice of obstetrics. In a country like India, limited and fixed resources of blood, forces us to titrate the use of blood and its components. Normally, blood loss during birth is well-tolerated because of changes during pregnancy.Methods: This is a retrospective observational study done at tertiary care hospital. This study is based on study of indoor patients admitted during one year duration. Detailed history and all necessary investigations were carried out. Details regarding blood transfusion were taken indication of blood transfusion, number and type of unit transfused, number of patients given blood components, indications where single unit was transfused. Analysis of the data was done.Results: Anemia followed by antepartum hemorrhage followed by postpartum hemorrhage was the major cause for blood and blood product transfusion. Approximately 60% patients required two units of PCV (Packed Cell Volume) transfusion. Anemia in pregnancy was the major cause of single unit PCV transfusion.Conclusions: A proper knowledge for blood and blood product transfusion is needed to make it available for people who are actually in need and also to decrease the economic burden. Measures to prevent anemia should be implemented. Active management of third stage of labour (AMTSL) should be done to avoid postpartum hemorrhage. Single unit transfusion should be avoided.

Background: The aims and objectives were to study the progression from tuberculosis to multi drug resistance-TB in revised national tuberculosis control programme: perspectives from health system care givers.Methods: The study was carried out in TB Sanatorium ITKI, Sadar Hospital Ranchi and RIMS Ranchi. The interview of various health personnel including SAHIYAs was taken using a semi-structured questionnaire based on programmatic management of multi drug resistant tuberculosis guidelines -2016.Results: Among Doctors knowledge level was good compared to other health personnel which had mean value 7.33 (±2.79), laboratory technician 3.45 (±2.64), STS 4.67 (±1.59), Sahiya 2.1 (±0.73). Regarding capacity enhancement level all health personnel needed refresher trainings in which doctors got 4.67 (±1.58), laboratory technician 3.45±2.64, STS 1.72±0.34, and Sahiya 0.5±0.52. Specially sahiya needs training regarding MDR-TB because they are the connecting link between health system and community. Regarding execution level, Doctors got 1.86 (±0.74), laboratory technician 1.64 (±0.56), STS 1.64 (±0.56) and Sahiya (ASHA) 2.2 (±0.44). Sahiya were better than other health personnel at execution level.Conclusions: Advocacy, communication, and social mobilization are important aspects of TB control, Policy makers and administrators should be sensitized for need of adequate and sustained funding for TB control to ensure quality capacity building. They need to provide continuous and quality training of staff at different levels and retention of trained staff and periodic reviews to identify gaps and take corrective steps.

Authors: Jeelani Tazeen , Amin Jibran , Rasheed Rabiya , Bilal Sheikh
Published: May 2019

Background: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most aggressive and invasive cancer types. Squamous cell carcinomas of the oral cavity are among the ten most common cancers in the world, and accounts for almost 3-5% of all malignancies. The invasive edges of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas often display different morphological and molecular characteristics than more superficial parts of the same tumor.

Methods: In our 2 year retrospective study, carried at a tertiary care centre of north India, main aim was to evaluate the prognostic significance of several parameters of the modified Bryne’s grading system along with probability of survival in OSCC patients.  

Results: Out of 60 cases 40 were males and 20 were females. Tumor differentiation was assessed which showed that 90% of the tumors were well differentiated, 6.6% of the tumors were moderately differentiated and 3.4% of the tumors were poorly differentiated. The predominant POI in the primary OSCC was pattern 2 (63.4% in 38 cases) followed by pattern 3, pattern 1and pattern 4 (28.4% in17 cases, 6.6% in 4 cases and 1.6% in 1 case) respectively.

Conclusions: Distributing all the cases according to the Bryne’s prognostic groups we found that 13 (21.7%) cases belonged to group with a score of <9, and 47 cases (78.3%) had a score of >9. The 5-year tumour-specific survival in OSCC patients with invasive front score of <9 was 95% compared to 46.25% in patients with high invasive front score >9.

Evaluation of Tissue Response in Sites Sutured with Cyanoacrylate and Submitted to Low Power Laser Therapy: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Authors: Andrade Eduardo de lima , Zerbinati Livia Prates , Oliveira Marilia gerhardt
Published: May 2019

This study aimed to qualitatively evaluate the inflammatory response in sites sutured with nylon and 2-octyl cyanoacrylate and submitted to low-power laser therapy. Background: 2-octyl cyanoacrylate acts as both a bonding agent for incisional wounds and a substitute for conventional suture methods after topical application, forming an occlusive layer that prevents the entry of any exogenous agent into the wound. Tissue reactions such as granuloma formation are cited in the literature as possible outcomes following 2-octyl cyanoacrylate use. Methods: Thirty wistar rats, were randomized into groups of five, of which fifteen were sutured with 2-octyl cyanoacrylate and another fifteen with nylon thread. In the postoperative period, all the animals were submitted to low power laser therapy in a single centralised region, with light perpendicular to the surgical wound, applied every 48 hours via the ArGaAl laser, with a wavelength of 685nm, a dose of 4J/cm2 and power level of 35mW. All the animals were kept in separate cages, under similar conditions, and provided with water and ad libitum feed. Animals were euthanized at 1 day (D1), 3 days (D2) and 7 days (D3). Tissue samples were removed from the central region of the wound and the slides were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Results: Histological sections were analysed by evaluating inflammatory parameters and in accordance with a previously standardized scale. Similar inflammatory reactions were observed between sutured wounds with nylon and cyanoacrylate, with no statistically significant differences observed. Conclusions: Results suggest that there is no difference in the association between 2-octyl cyanoacrylate and laser therapy and nylon sutures with and the same As-Ga-Al laser application dosage

Published: May 2019

Teknolojinin gelişmesi insanoğluna daha geniş, daha ağır ve daha karmaşık yapılar yapma fırsatı vermiştir. Artan ve karmaşık hale gelen yükleri zemine aktarma problemi ile karşılaşan geoteknik mühendisleri için; zemini iyileştirmek, zeminde meydana gelecek oturmaları ve gerilme dağılışlarını tespit etmek kaçınılmaz hale gelmiştir. Son yıllarda zemini iyileştirmede kullanımı artan bir yapı malzemesi olan geotekstiller, zeminlerin taşıma gücünü etkilemektedir. Zeminde meydana gelecek oturmalar açısından gerilme dağılışı ve taşıma gücü temel tasarımının en önemli parametrelerden birkaçıdır. Bu çalışmada donatılı kum zemin yüzeyine oturan model şerit temelle düzlem deformasyon koşullarında deneyler yapılmış ve uygulanan düşey yükten dolayı zeminde belirli noktalarda meydana gelen düşey gerilme artışları tespit edilmiştir. Deneysel çalışma kapsamında, üç farklı rölatif sıkılıkta geotekstille güçlendirilmiş kum tabakalarında, önceden belirlenen noktalara yerleştirilen basınç ölçerler yardımıyla düşey gerilme artışları kaydedilmiştir. Daha sonra model deney düzeneği PLAXIS 2D programı ile modellenip Mohr-Coulomb modeli ile düşey gerilme artışları belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca donatılı zeminin, Elastisite Teorisine dayalı olarak geliştirilen analitik yöntemlerle (Poulos ve Boussinesq) düşey gerilme artışları hesaplanmıştır. Deneylerle elde edilen tüm değerler incelendiğinde, rölatif sıkılığın donatılı zemindeki gerilme dağılışında etkili bir parametre olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bununla birlikte, yaygın kullanılan Elastisite Teorisine dayalı çözümlerin düşük rölatif sıkılıktaki donatılı zeminlerde oldukça hatalı sonuçlar verdiği görülmüştür.
Assessment of the Disaster Recovery Progress through Mathematical Modelling
Authors: DİKMEN Seyyit  Ümit , AKBIYIKLI Rıfat , SÖNMEZ Murat
Published: May 2019

Natural
disasters, especially major earthquakes, cause widespread devastation in the
built environment. Hence, the major component of the recovery in its aftermath constitutes
a chain of projects starting at different times, having different costs and
durations. In this study, the post disaster recovery curve modelled through a
mathematical approach taking into account these properties of the projects. The
approach followed is based on the project S-curve concept that provides the
opportunity to simulate the progress by outlining the project spending. Well-known
mathematical functions are adapted to model the project spending and the
handover processes. Monte Carlo simulation is performed to evaluate the general
behavior of the recovery curve using the model developed. Weibull distribution
is used to generate the model’s parameters. Results of the Monte Carlo
simulation demonstrate that the recovery process exhibits an S-shape, the
duration of initial portion and the slope of the bulk portion being
significantly governed by the level of preparedness of the community.

„Where writing runs into death…” – Ars moriendi nova in Wolfgang Herrndorfs Blog "Arbeit und Struktur" (2010-2013)
Authors: Jaśtal Katarzyna
Published: May 2019

Der vorliegende Beitrag setzt sich zum Ziel, das 2013 in Buchform veröffentlichte Weblog Wolfgang Herrndorfs (1965-2013) Arbeit und Struktur als eine Autothanatographie zu analysieren, d.h. als einen Text, in dessen Zentrum die Auseinandersetzung des Ichs mit seinem Sterben und Tod steht. Dabei wird das Online-Diarium als ein literarisches Dokument der ars moriendi nova betrachtet. Diese begegnet dem Phänomen der Sterblichkeit mit der Infragestellung althergebrachter religiös vermittelter Konzepte, klammert die Hoffnung auf ein Jenseits aus, verwandelt das in der traditionellen ars moriendi dominierende religiöse Bekenntnis in ein „Bekenntnis zur eigenen Biografie und den darin gelebten Glaubensvorstellungen“ und plädiert für das Recht auf einen selbstbestimmten Tod angesichts einer irreversiblen Krankheit und unerträglich gewordener Leiden.

Published: May 2019

In the article there is considered the problem of optimization of the control and supervision activities of the Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing on the criterion “prevention of the economic damage”. In the process of the solution of the multi-objectives optimization the task was reduced to one-criterion, to be solved by the methods of mathematical programming. The results were obtained by the use of main criterion methods and successive concessions. The problems were solved with the help of MS Excel means, by using “Search solution” tool. Testing of the solution of the problem was performed on the statistical data at the federal level. The optimal performance indices of the activity of agencies and organizations of Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing were acquired for the script, which preserves the existing level offunding. The use of an optimal model of action allows to predict an increase by 38% of prevention of economic losses from underproduction of Gross Domestic Product due to the loss of health of economically active population of the country at the same cost to the supervisory activities of Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing. The solution of problems of optimization by the criterion offinancial costs of activities of the Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing has shown that the reduction in funding of control and supervisory activities of the Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing even in case of the system of measures ’ optimization could have the effect of lowering the total avoided economic loss. The latter indicates to the relevance of the maintenance of the level of providing health surveillance when improving its structure and organization.

Published: May 2019

The article demonstrates the methodical approach to the justification of biomarkers of adverse effects (for example, endothelial dysfunction) in workers of sylvinite ore-dressing production occupied in conditions of the long-term noise exposure at the level of 85-95 dBA. The methodology testing revealed that the professional risk in workers of basic specialties is estimated from mild to unbearable by the criterion class of working conditions (3.1.-3.3.). Hypertensive heart disease is a most often occupationally conditioned disorder (RR = 8.69, DI = 2.53-29.83; etiological fraction (EF) = 88.49%). Endothelial dysfunction, pathogenetically related to the development of hypertension, has a high degree of occupational conditionality in terms of a reduced level of K-brachial artery sensitivity to stress and a reduced level of the relative increase in the brachial artery diameter. Biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction (in terms of reducing the relative increase in the brachial artery diameter) are elevated serum levels of TSH, MDA, IL-10, lipoprotein (a) in respect to the physiological norms. The reasonable biomarkers of negative effect allow to expand the evidence base of industrial conditioning of disease process in workers at individual and group level at the determined noise exposure.
Age structure and dynamics of the morbidity rate of respiratory and autonomous nervous system diseases in children living in conditions of the aerogenous impact of chemical factors of technogenic origin (cohort study)
Authors: Maklakova Olga A. , Ustinova O. Yu. , Alekseeva A. V.
Published: May 2019

There was executed a 6-years cohort study of 65 children divided into an observation group comprising of 45 cases residing in the conditions of atmosphere air contaminated by a complex of chemical substances of technogenic origin (suspended solids, phenol, formaldehyde), and a comparative group (20 children) from the area with beneficiary sanitary-hygienic conditions. In conditions of the impact of these chemical substances in children reaching of the age of 7-10 years the prevalence of allergic rhinitis and vegetative disorders was established to increase by 1.2-1.9 times, and the risk of getting sick with bronchial asthma is growing by more than twice; by 11-14 years the risk of spreading of allergic rhinitis is additionally growing by 1.4 times against the background of the decreasing in the probability of forming of chronic lympho-proliferative processes of nasopharynx and secondary immunodeficiency.

This work presents results of the study on the environment prevalence of spores of aerobic bacteria, which are of potential danger to human health. The investigation of swabs from handles of supermarket trolleys revealed on their surface the presence of a large number of spores of unrelated pathogenic bacteria carrying as antibiotic resistance genes and the origin of genes protected by bacterial spores from harmful environmental conditions as well. The high resistance of bacterial spores to antiseptics and disinfectants can be considered as the reason for the their accumulation in the environment.

The aim of the study was a comparative description and assessment of seasonal dynamics of organoleptic characteristics, degree of salinity and chemical composition of the water from some reservoirs in Uzbekistan. Organoleptic indices and parameters of salinity of water from Kattakurgansky reservoir in the spring and summer were established to be practically within the range of MPC. Indices of chemical composition of water of the Kattakurgan reservoir were below the upper limit of MPC. In water samples of Tuyamuyunsky reservoir organoleptic indices and parameters of water salinity in summer were higher than the MPC. Indices of the chemical composition of water in the summer time were below upper limits of the permissible level, there were noted reliable inter-seasonal differences on the content of chlorides and sulfates. Organoleptic indices and the degree of mineralization of water samples of Charvaksky reservoir were within the range of MPC. All parameters of the chemical composition of water of Charvaksky reservoir were lower than the upper MPC limit, regardless of the place of sampling and the time of year.

The work is dedicated to methodological problems of the mathematical assessment of the impact of meteorological factors on the adaptive function of the teachers of the High School Institutions. Objects of research. Male teachers of the High School Institution, aged of from 24 to 49 years. Meteorological data were evaluated during the investigation of anthropometric indices of height and weight, individual-typological features and the physiological assessment of the central nervous system, cardiovascular system of the High School teachers. Statistical analysis was performed with the use of Statistica 6.0 package and special statistical software. Paired correlation coefficients obtained as a result of calculation were used to estimate the proportion of the influence of input factors (arguments) on the output factors (functions). A mathematical analysis has allowed to reveal leading meteorological factors that cause a certain level of functional exhaustion during the investigated period. The use of a non-linear correlation analysis allowed to enhance significantly the ability for analytical processing of the results, increase of the effectiveness and the possibility of interpreting the interaction of factors in achieving optimal adaptation of teachers in the working process and to identify the role of meteorological factors in this process. Knowledge of leading factors and the percentage of their contribution to the functional state allowed to give the more accurate assessment of stress to the organism in specific circumstances. The ultimate aim of the mathematical analysis should be not only to find the critical value defined the priority factor characterizing the degree of of information load, but the critical combination of all priority factors causing disruption and the beginning of “start-up” adaptation process in the system “dose-effect. “

Published: May 2019

There was studied the effect of 6-weeks intake of small doses of the herbicide 2,4-DA on the body weight of animals. The consumption of water containing the herbicide in a concentration of 0.5 MPC was shown to have led to the greater gain of the body weight in experimental rats in comparison with the control. Simultaneously there was noted the gain of the mass of epididymal fat and increase in the concentration of leptin. This effect was more pronounced in rats treated with 2,4-DA, under the diet with high caloric content. The results obtained are likely to be associated with the disrupting action of the herbicide, leading, in particular, to the disturbance of the regulatory function of the thyroid gland and insulin resistance.

Published: May 2019

Teacher noticing is one of the issues that math educators have given importance recently. The noticing-raising skills that require a professional vision beyond their use in daily life requires a series of activities within the framework of prior learning by the teacher, then interpreting and providing appropriate feedback. Investigating the level of awareness in pre-service teacher trainees will provide a foresight for future education. In the field of algebra learning, it has been identified in previous studies that primary school students experience various misconceptions and have a trouble. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine the misconceptions and errors of 7th grade students about equations and to observe their noticing of these errors and misconceptions. Participants of the study, in which qualitative research methods have been adopted, are 3 student and 3 mathematics teacher candidates with medium and high academic achievement. As a means of data collection, in the scale of error and misconceptions about equations was utilized and teacher candidates' awareness of these responses was investigated. At the end of the study, it was found that the success of the attending step was not sufficient for the other steps.

Published: May 2019

Background:

Early mobilization is an important therapeutic goal after total knee replacement and total hip replacement. Orthostatic hypotension and orthostatic intolerance can impede mobilization. Midodrine hydrochloride, an orally administered vasoconstrictor, may improve blood pressure and diminish the prevalence of adverse mobilization events.

Methods:

We conducted a pilot change-of-practice study. Two cohorts, each comprising 10 patients managed with total knee replacement and 10 patients managed with total hip replacement, were managed with blood pressure-adjusted midodrine, which was administered 3 times daily for the first 72 hours postoperatively at either a low dose (2.5 or 5 mg) or a higher dose (5 or 10 mg). These patients were then matched with an equivalent preintervention cohort of patients.

Results:

The midodrine protocol was instituted effectively and with high compliance. Hypotension was uncommon across all groups, with the mean lowest systolic blood pressure ranging from 110 to 121 mm Hg. Moreover, adverse mobilization events were uncommon across all groups (prevalence, 9.6% in the control group, 5.6% in the low-dose group, and 2.9% in the high-dose group) (p = 0.046 for the high-dose group versus the control group). A midodrine dose of 10 mg generated a significant mean dose-related systolic blood pressure increase of 14 mm Hg at 2 hours after administration (p < 0.001). There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of mean systolic blood pressure, biochemical markers, or intravenous therapy administration.

Conclusions:

A dose of 10 mg was found to achieve a significant systolic blood pressure response at 2 hours after administration and, in patients who received higher-dose midodrine, adverse mobilization events appeared less common. Additional investigation with a blinded randomized controlled trial, utilizing 10 mg of midodrine 2 hours before mobilization, would be needed to confirm the efficacy of midodrine therapy.

Level of Evidence:

Therapeutic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
