Published: June 2022

The number of throwing-related arm injuries in youth baseball pitchers is increasing. Many variables correlate with increased injury rates, but the role of shoulder strength in pitching mechanics and resulting injuries is not well understood. Thus, the purpose of this study was [1] determine if shoulder strength is associated with youth pitchers’ throwing kinematics, [2] investigate how Biodex can be used as a training modality for improving strength and performance while preventing throwing-related injuries. Kinematic data was collected from seventeen youth pitchers ages 9-14 years old. Isometric and isokinetic strength data was collected using the Biodex. Spearman correlations were used to investigate associations between Biodex measurements and kinematic data at the shoulder for maximum external rotation (MER), maximum internal rotation (MIR), maximal internal acceleration (MIA), and maximal internal velocity (MIV) during the pitching cycle. There was a significant correlation between MER and isokinetic external rotation strength at 60 and 180°/sec and isometric external and internal rotation at 45°. MIA was significantly correlated with isokinetic external and internal rotation strength at 60°/sec, and isometric internal rotation strength at 0, 45, and 105°. MIV was significantly correlated with isokinetic external and internal rotation strength at 60°/sec. Age, BMI, and years of experience were investigated as confounding variables; none were significant. There are significant correlations between kinematic measurements during the pitching cycle and shoulder strength. We feel training at strength parameters best correlated with each kinematic phase could improve pitching mechanics while preventing injuries in youth pitchers.

Authors: Valassi Elena , Chiodini Iacopo , Feelders Richard A , Andela Cornelie D , Abou-Hanna Margueritta , Idres Sarah , Tabarin Antoine
Published: June 2022

Background

Cushing’s syndrome (CS) is a rare condition of chronically elevated cortisol levels resulting in diverse comorbidities, many of which endure beyond successful treatment affecting the quality of life. Few data are available concerning patients’ experiences of diagnosis, care and persistent comorbidities.

Objective

To assess CS patients’ perspectives on the diagnostic and care journey to identify unmet therapeutic needs.

Methods

A 12-item questionnaire was circulated in 2019 by the World Association for Pituitary Organisations. A parallel, 13-item questionnaire assessing physician perceptions on CS patient experiences was performed.

Results

Three hundred twenty CS patients from 30 countries completed the questionnaire; 54% were aged 35–54 and 88% were female; 41% were in disease remission. The most burdensome symptom was obesity/weight gain (75%). For 49% of patients, time to diagnosis was over 2 years. Following treatment, 88.4% of patients reported ongoing symptoms including, fatigue (66.3%), muscle weakness (48.8%) and obesity/weight gain (41.9%). Comparisons with delay in diagnosis were significant for weight gain (P = 0.008) and decreased libido (P = 0.03). Forty physicians completed the parallel questionnaire which showed that generally, physicians poorly estimated the prevalence of comorbidities, particularly initial and persistent cognitive impairment. Only a minority of persistent comorbidities (occurrence in 1.3–66.3%; specialist treatment in 1.3–29.4%) were managed by specialists other than endocrinologists. 63% of patients were satisfied with treatment.

Conclusion

This study confirms the delay in diagnosing CS. The high prevalence of persistent comorbidities following remission and differences in perceptions of health between patients and physicians highlight a probable deficiency in effective multidisciplinary management for CS comorbidities.

Published: June 2022

Objective

Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF15), a key metabolic regulator, is associated with obesity and diabetes in which sex-specific differences have been reported. Thus, we assessed whether GDF15 could be dependent on sex in diabetes and/or obesity groups.

Methods

We measured serum GDF15 levels by ELISA in eight lean women and men (n = 16), eight women and eight men having obesity (n = 16), eight women and eight men with type 2 diabetes (T2D, n = 16), and seven women and nine men with both diabetes and obesity (n = 16). Estimation of the difference in the means of each group was performed by two-way ANOVA. The interdependence of the different variates was addressed by multivariate analysis. Correlations between GDF15 levels and HOMA-IR, HbA1c, triglycerides, HDL, and LDL were explored by linear regression.

Results

Being a woman and having obesity alone or in combination with diabetes decreased GDF15 serum levels (β = −0.47, CI = −0.95, 0.00, P = 0.052; β = −0.45, CI = −0.94, 0.05, P= 0.075). Diabetes independently of metformin treatment and obesity were not predictive of low GDF15 levels (β = 0.10, CI = −0.36, 0.57, P = 0.7). Correlation analysis showed that HOMA-IR (r = 0.45, P = 0.008) and triglycerides (r = 0.41, P = 0.017) were positively correlated and HDL (r = −0.48, P = 0.005) was negatively correlated with GDF15 levels in men.

Conclusions/interpretation

GDF15 level was significantly different between men and women, as well as between the groups. Sex and group interaction revealed that being a woman and having obesity alone or in combination with diabetes decreased GDF15 levels.

Published: June 2022

La atención visual es un indicador importante en las interacciones entre docentes y estudiantes. Este artículo presenta los resultados de un estudio que buscó determinar cómo fluctúa la atención visual que los estudiantes prestan a la persona docente durante sus clases de matemáticas e inglés y detectar posibles diferencias en dicha atención. El estudio se llevó a cabo en una escuela secundaria con una muestra de 16 estudiantes (varones). Los datos se obtuvieron a través de una mini cámara de video, montada sobre las gafas que son usadas por los estudiantes. A través del uso de imágenes de Google, analizamos de manera automática y objetiva 2613 fotogramas de las grabaciones en las que la persona docente de la clase aparecía en el campo visual de los estudiantes. Los resultados dan cuenta de la diferencia en la atención visual de los estudiantes entre los introvertidos y los extrovertidos durante los 90 minutos de clase. También se observó que los estudiantes estaban más comprometidos visualmente cuando el discurso de la persona docente estaba acompañado de gestos. Se destaca la importancia de diversificar las interacciones que busque otras formas de comprometer a los estudiantes en los últimos dos tercios de la clase. Algunas implicaciones para los programas de desarrollo profesional se derivan de este estudio.
Drivers and Evolution Paths of BPMS: State-of-the-Art and Future Research Directions
Authors: Szelągowski Marek , Lupeikiene Audrone , Berniak-Woźny Justyna
Published: June 2022

The aim of the article is to identify drivers and limiters of the development of Business Process Management Systems (BPMS) from the point of view of the industry and the academia, and to formulate practical recommendations. Their identification is crucial in order to remove a considerable gap between the approach to knowledge-intensive business processes (kiBPs), which require dynamic management and are decisive with regard to the competitive position of the organization under the conditions of Industry 5.0, as well as the possibilities offered by ICT solution, and the current possibilities and needs of BPM practitioners. The authors applied a methodological approach based on a theoretical literature review and a review of practice through online structured expert interviews with key BPMS solution providers. According to the literature, the main drivers pertain to the enterprises’ efforts to reduce costs and improve their productivity and efficiency, develop technology, and enact changes in business models and business processes. According to vendors, the main drivers for the combination of BPMS and Case Management Systems (CMS) were the users’ expectations, technology identity, and further development perspectives. The main limiters of the decision to combine both classes of systems were technological problems predicted by vendors related to the unification of historically different technologies used in both classes of systems, as well as implementation-based problems related to the likely need to reconfigure the software environments of software users. The article formulated original recommendations for both vendors and users of iBPMS software, including the basic recommendation of the selection of the methodology of implementation of BPM and iBPMS in accordance with the context of the organization’s operations (the nature of its business processes).

Published: June 2022

Purpose: Few studies in the literature address the success of enterprise Information Systems (IS) projects, namely focusing on how success is influenced by project management practices. This research studied the impact of ISO 21500/PMBOK processes on the success of IS projects, aiming to contribute to a better understanding of management practices importance in the context of this type of projects. Design/methodology/approach: An international survey was used to collect data, which was analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings: The results show higher levels of success than usually reported in the literature. Furthermore, this research shows that overall success is strongly influenced by ISO/PMBOK project management processes, thus reinforcing the relevance of competent project management to improve the results of IS projects. Originality: Focusing on the specific case of IS projects, this study shows that higher levels of success are achieved by organizations with higher project management maturity.
Working patriarchies? Police and criminal justice responses to domestic abuse in Scotland 1960–1990
Authors: Donaldson Anni
Published: June 2022

Post-war Scotland remained a deeply patriarchal country. Domestic abuse was common yet widely under-reported by the women it affected. This article argues that police and criminal justice agencies in Scotland 1960–1990 were ‘working patriarchies’ which created significant barriers to reporting. Oral history narratives from domestic abuse survivors, police and criminal justice professionals reveal deeply patriarchal workplaces and practices designed to maintain longstanding traditions of the patriarchal family. These inhibited reporting, denied women access to safety and justice in private life and contributed to women’s continuing inequality in post-war Scottish society.

Authors: Day-Lewis Megan , Chiel Laura , Gaffin Jonathan , Lee Pui Y. , Chandler Mia T. , Son Mary Beth , Casey Alicia M. , Halyabar Olha
Published: June 2022

OBJECTIVES

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) and e-cigarette or vaping product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) have significant overlap in clinical features, which can contribute to delay in identification and treatment. The objectives of this report were to identify and describe features that are common in both diagnoses and those that may help distinguish EVALI from MIS-C, and to highlight the diagnostic challenges observed at our tertiary medical center.

METHODS

We identified adolescents diagnosed with MIS-C who had respiratory or gastrointestinal symptoms and patients diagnosed with EVALI during the same time period. We compared demographics, history, clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, and features of the hospital course to determine areas of overlap between MIS-C and EVALI, as well as distinct features of each diagnosis. Mann–Whitney U test was used to compare continuous variables and Fisher’s exact test was used to compare categorical variables.

RESULTS

We found that cardiovascular and mucocutaneous findings and thrombocytopenia were more common in MIS-C. EVALI patients had a higher degree of inflammation and history of antecedent weight loss. Providers at our institution were more likely to consider MIS-C than EVALI on the differential diagnosis, including in patients with vaping history and no evidence of previous severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection.

CONCLUSIONS

This study emphasizes the need for a thorough collection of substance use history for all patients and consideration of EVALI in adolescents who present with respiratory compromise or gastrointestinal symptoms and systemic inflammation, particularly in the absence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 exposure or cardiac findings characteristic of MIS-C.

Do evaluation and self-identification relate to self-reported and actual social media use?
Authors: Cathelyn Femke , Van Dessel Pieter , Cummins Jamie , De Houwer Jan
Published: June 2022

Background and aims

Social media use can sometimes become excessive and damaging. To deal with this issue, scholars and practitioners have called for the development of measures that predict social media use. The current studies test the utility of evaluation and self-identification measures for predicting social media use.

Method

Study 1 examined the relation between evaluation (n = 58) and self-identification (n = 56) measures on the one hand and several self-report measures of social media use on the other hand. Study 2 examined whether the main results of Study 1 could be replicated and whether evaluation (n = 68) and self-identification (n = 48) also relate to actual social media use. We probed evaluation and self-identification using implicit and explicit measures.

Results

Explicit evaluation and self-identification measures significantly correlated with several of the self-report measures of social media. Explicit evaluation also significantly correlated with several indices of actual social media use. Implicit measures did not relate to social media use.

Discussion and conclusions

The current results suggest that researchers and practitioners could benefit from using explicit evaluation and self-identification measures when predicting social media use, especially an evaluation measure since this measure also seems to relate to actual social media use. Study 2 was one of the first to test the ecological validity of social media use measures. Although implicit measures could provide benefits for predicting social media use, the current studies did not show evidence for their predictive utility.
The effect of the 12-week judo physical activity program on the self-esteem of secondary school students during the COVID-19 period
Authors: Efek Engin , Eryiğit Hakan
Published: June 2022

Background and Study Aim. During the COVID-19 period, participation in physical activity decreased, and at the same time, many psychological problems occurred in children and adolescents. Therefore, this study examines the impact of secondary school students’ participation in regular exercise on their self-esteem.

Material and Methods. The research was carried out with an experimental method and sequential design. The study, carried out in 2 sessions, started with the first measurement in November 2021 and ended with the last measurement in January 2022. 46 volunteer students forming the study sample were divided into experimental and control groups. Students in both groups completed the ‘Personal Information Form’ and the ‘Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory’ in the first week and the end of the 12th week. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 17.0 was used for data analysis. First, a descriptive statistical test was conducted to indicate the socio-demographic characteristics of the participants. Then, normality tests (Skewness and Kurtosis) were applied to determine whether the data showed normal distribution, and it was determined that the data showed normal distribution. Finally, the independent sample t-test and Paired Samples t-test were applied because the data met the assumption of normal distribution. The significance level was determined as p<0.05.

Results. A statistically significant difference was found between the self-esteem values of the experimental group before the physical activity program and after the exercise sessions. There was no significant difference in the self-esteem levels of the control group pre-test and post-test.

Conclusions. In conclusion, this study reveals that participation in 12 weeks of regular exercise significantly increases middle school students’ self-esteem.
Biotransformation of sesaminol triglycoside by intestinal microflora of swine supplemented with probiotic or antibiotic diet
Authors: Jan Kuo-Ching , Wang Tzu-Yi , Hwang Lucy Sun , Gavahian Mohsen
Published: June 2022

Lignans, found throughout the plant kingdom, are complex diphenolic chemicals that act as phytoestrogens. The main lignan component in sesame flour is sesaminol triglucoside (STG). In vivo, STG is converted into antioxidant sesaminol, mammalian lignans enterodiol, and enterolactone. Thus, use of antibiotics may impact the conversion of lignans to enterolactone. The present study investigated the metabolism of STG by microorganisms in swine-fed diets supplemented with either probiotics or antibiotics. It was observed that microorganisms from swine-fed probiotics helped with hydrolyzing the glucose unit of STG and generated metabolite 2-hydroxymethyl sesaminol- tetrahydrofuran (ST-2) as compared to antibiotic diet. It was also observed that bacteria that converted sesaminol to ST-2 were oxygen-sensitive and it was hypothesized that these were anaerobes. While Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium were more prevalent in probiotic-fed swine feces, both groups of swine had a healthy mix of helpful and detrimental bacteria. All selective investigated microorganisms (Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, and Clostridium perfringens) could hydrolyze the glucose unit of STG; however, lactic acid bacteria contributed least. In conclusion, the bacteria found in the feces of swine-fed probiotics had a greater ability to digest STG. It can be concluded that the biotransformation of STG could be attributable to anaerobes, but Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium could balance intestinal flora.

Leveraging Communities of Practice and Pedagogies of Practice to Prepare Ambitious Teachers
Authors: Nitta Kathleen
Published: June 2022

Ambitious teachers view students as sense makers in collaborative learning of disciplinary ideas and value students’ assets as resources for learning. Preparing teachers to enact ambitious instruction requires an approach to professional learning that constructs connections between instructional practice and a vision of principled teaching. This study explored how pedagogies of practice and communities of practice support prospective teachers’ development of a mathematics teaching practice. The study findings suggest pedagogical activities situated within a community of practice may provide opportunities for prospective teachers to build an understanding of the relationship between a core teaching practice and principles of ambitious teaching.

Abstract The aim of this paper is to better understand the dynamics of crystallogenic and starting activity in biological fluids of patients throughout surgery and the late postoperative phase in alveococcosis. Samples of saliva from 22 individuals with alveococcosis were included in the research. Biological fluid samples were taken at the time of admission and before the patient was discharged. Following that, slides were made utilizing the teziocrystalloscopy method, which incorporates the investigation of the crystal forming activity of mixed saliva with its starting characteristics using a 0.9 percent sodium chloride solution as the foundation ingredient. Using our own set of criteria, we evaluated the outcomes of crystalloscopic and tezigraphic experiments. Specrophotometric examination of tezigraphic and crystalloscopic facies was done using a PowerWave XS microplate spectrophotometer at wavelengths of 400, 350, and 300 nm to augment the results from ocular morphometry of dried saliva micro slides. Surgical therapy results in a partial normalization of physical and chemical parameters, as well as the composition of the patient's biological fluids after the patient is discharged from the hospital.
Is leaf fluctuating asymmetry related to plant and leaf size in Miconia albicans, a common Melastomataceae species?
Authors: Dodonov P. , Braga A. L. , Arruda L. H. , Alves-Ferreira G. , Silva-Matos D. M.
Published: June 2022

Abstract Fluctuating asymmetry, defined as random differences between the two sides of a symmetrical structure, has been often related to development stress in both plants and animals. In plants, leaf fluctuating asymmetry has been related to stresses such as pollution and fire and may also be related to leaf growth and herbivory rates. We assessed whether leaf fluctuating asymmetry is related to plant and leaf size in Miconia albicans (Sw.) Triana (Melastomataceae), a common multi-stem Neotropical shrub, in a Brazilian savanna area. We collected 15 leaves from each of 70 individuals, and measured fluctuating asymmetry as the difference in area between the right and left sides of the leaves using the central vein as reference. To avoid spurious results due to measurement error, the division along the central vein was performed independently by three researchers. We also measured the basal area and height of each stem of the plant individuals. We used linear models to assess the relations between leaf fluctuating asymmetry, plant size and leaf size. No consistent relations were observed between leaf fluctuating asymmetry and plant size, as the analyses performed on the fluctuating asymmetry values obtained by the different researchers showed different results. However, relative fluctuating asymmetry values, obtained by dividing the fluctuating asymmetry by the total leaf area, tended to be smaller in larger leaves. It thus appears that, in the study species, fluctuating asymmetry is related to the developmental conditions faced by the individual leaves and not by the plant as a whole.

Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT Objective: to identify the Nursing diagnoses in men deprived of their freedom, based on the Basic Human Needs framework. Methods: a descriptive and exploratory study with a qualitative approach conducted by means of the Theory of Basic Human Needs framework. Data collection took place from June to November 2019, with individual interviews carried out with 220 men deprived of their freedom. The data were submitted to thematic and content analysis directed to NANDA International Taxonomy II. All ethical aspects were respected. Results: 12 Nursing diagnoses belonging to the categories of health problems and potential risks were identified, grouped and interpreted according to the theoretical framework. Sedentary lifestyle, obesity, overweight, risk-prone health behavior, and ineffective health control are factors that have been related to the psychobiological needs. Involvement in recreational activities, anxiety, ineffective coping, risk of violence directed toward others, disrupted family processes, and risk of ineffective relationships were related to the psychosocial needs, while the risk of impaired religiosity was related to the psychospiritual needs. Conclusion: the absence of Nursing diagnoses in the health promotion category signals the need for actions that provide quality of life to these people.
Evocações da escravidão. Sobre sujeição e fuga em experiências negras
Authors: Díaz-Benítez María Elvira , Rangel Everton
Published: June 2022

Resumo Este artigo relata passagens do nosso encontro com duas mulheres negras: Dona Luiza e Fafá. A primeira, uma senhora moradora de favela, matriarca, mãe de um homem condenado por estupro, avó da criança que teria sido estuprada. A segunda, uma jovem de 24 anos, mãe de um menino de três, atriz de filmes de fetiches extremos. Partindo da ideia de que as vidas negras permanecem na oscilação entre a sujeição e a fuga, nos interessa descrever como essa oscilação acontece no plano do ordinário e interpretar a sua relação com evocações da escravidão que se realizam em fragmentos ou se materializam em situações de “faz de conta”. A fuga, mais do que resistência, denota formas ambivalentes de estar no mundo, movimentos imprevisíveis para quem se esforça para tocar a vida. Discutimos imagens e situações que têm a capacidade tanto de restaurar a sujeição quanto de conjurá-la.
AI-Based Software Defect Predictors: Applications and Benefits in a Case Study
Authors: Tosun Ayse , Bener Ayse , Kale Resat
Published: June 2022

Software defect prediction aims to reduce software testing efforts by guiding testers through the defect-prone sections of software systems. Defect predictors are widely used in organizations to predict defects in order to save time and effort as an alternative to other techniques such as manual code reviews. The application of a defect prediction model in a real-life setting is difficult because it requires software metrics and defect data from past projects to predict the defect-proneness of new projects. It is, on the other hand, very practical because it is easy to apply, can detect defects using less time and reduces the testing effort. We have built a learning-based defect prediction model for a telecommunication company during a period of one year. In this study, we have briefly explained our model, presented its pay-off and described how we have implemented the model in the company. Furthermore, we have compared the performance of our model with that of another testing strategy applied in a pilot project that implemented a new process called Team Software Process (TSP). Our results show that defect predictors can be used as supportive tools during a new process implementation, predict 75% of code defects, and decrease the testing time compared with 25% of the code defects detected through more labor-intensive strategies such as code reviews and formal checklists.
Void states perspective for critical hydraulic gradient of internally unstable non-cohesive soils
Authors: Kalore S. A. , Sivakumar Babu G. L.
Published: June 2022

The critical hydraulic gradient ([Formula: see text]) for internally unstable soils is observed to be significantly less than the [Formula: see text] given by Terzaghi's classical equation. The difference is due to the uneven stress contributions by fine and coarse fractions of internally unstable soils, and thus an empirical stress reduction factor ([Formula: see text]) was considered for [Formula: see text] predictions. Internally unstable soils are coarse fraction dominant with a void ratio of the fine fraction higher than the void ratio of overall internally unstable soil. The differential stress states lead to washout of the fines from the local voids of the coarse fraction at a hydraulic gradient of less than the [Formula: see text] given by the classical equation. This study presents a theoretical approach for predicting [Formula: see text] based on the notion of the effective stress of the fine fraction within the voids of a coarse fraction being equal to zero for internally unstable soils. A comparison of predicted [Formula: see text] based on the proposed approach and experimental observations obtained from the literature and the current study has demonstrated the validity of the proposed approach. The applicability of the proposed approach is also illustrated for the estimation of a critical hydromechanical envelope.

HYDROCHEMICAL RESEARCH OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF KARST IN THE CHUSOVSKY CAPE IN THE AREA OF INFLUENCE OF THE RESERVOIR
Authors: Kilin Y.A. , Minkevich I.I. , Shardakov I.N. , Shutov P.V.
Published: June 2022

The territory of the Chusovsky Cape belongs to the area of mainly gypsum and carbonate-gypsum karst. The Kama reservoir has a great influence on the hydro-dynamic and hydrochemical situation. Karst processes are becoming more active. The thickness of the transitional hydrodynamic zone increases, which is manifested in an increase in the frequency of karst sinkholes. The high dissolving capacity of surface waters and groundwaters of the solikamsk and iren aquifers of the kungurian stage of the lower permian contributed to the development of a karst sinkhole in the village of Gorodishche (1991). Periodic observations of the chemical composition of groundwa-ter and surface waters showed that the chemical composition is subject to fluctuations, the amount of sulfates increases from 1163mg / dm3 (2018) to 1403mg / dm3 (2021).

Published: June 2022

Geochemical and hydrogeological oil and gas exploration was carried out in the west of the Siberian platform in the basin of the river Podkamennaya Tun-guska, where 6 thousand groundwater sources and streams have been studied. The main informative hydrogeochemical indicators in the Tunguska basin in the upper hydrodynamic zone are: the type of water, the nature of mineralization, the content of chlorides, sulfates, bromine, iodine, some organic substances and microelements, as well as an indicator of water metamorphization. 150 hydrogeochemical anomalies associated mainly with geodynamic active zones have been established. In general, all the studied hydrogeochemical indicators indicate a good closure of deep horizons and a favorable environment for the preservation of deposits in the depths of local positive structures.
UPPER DEVONIAN SANDSTONE MICROFRACTURES (KODINKA FAULT BLOCK, ALAPAYEVSK-TECHA ZONE, MIDDLE URALS EASTERN SLOPE)
Authors: Melnichuk O.Yu.
Published: June 2022

Microscale fractures of Upper Frasnian Kodinka Formation and Famennian Ust`kodinka Formation sandstones are considered in this work. It`s found that genesis of the microfractures and their mineral filling is associated with late and uplift diage-netic alterations. Moreover we suppose that illite/smectite transformation fluids were the main source of silica. For the carbonate mineral filling it was both noted fluids and other formations fluids. Example of the last-named may be underlyindg carbonate formation and Kodinka fault block adjacent carboniferous formations.
The problem of diamond content of the Pomyanennovskaya suite (South Cis-Tyman, Perm Region)
Authors:   Perm State University, Paktovsky Yuri Germanovich
Published: June 2022

The polymictic composition of the rocks of the Pomyanennovskaya suite indicates their difference from the quartz rocks of the Upper Ordovician in the South Cis-Tyman, which is the basis of the method of relative «lithochronology» for the «mute» sections of the Early Paleozoic in the region. According to the lithological criterion, the rocks of the Pomyanennovskaya suite can be correctly distinguished from the composition of the Polyudovskaya suite (O3pl) into a local stratigraphic taxon, possibly comparable in age to the Alkesvozhskaya sequence (Є3–O1) of the Northern Urals. The diamond content of the Pomyanennovskaya suite indicates the possibility of the existence of intermediate Precambrian reservoirs in the Urals.

Authors:   Institute of Geology, UFRC RAS, Snachev Vladimir Ivanovich
Published: June 2022

Based on the example of the Tash-Yar and Vesennee deposits, a fundamentally new approach to the problem of diffusion of elements at the boundaries of ore minerals of the pyrite-sphalerite association is considered in the article, which makes it possible to calculate the temperatures and duration of transformations of ore objects, the impact of intrusive bodies (Osennee, Avangard and many others), or experienced deep regional metamorphism (deposits of Karelia, the Baikal region, the Yenisei ridge).
Petrochemical features of acid volcanism of the Sablegorsk Complex (Subpolar Urals)
Authors:   Ural State Mining University, Trutnev Artyom Konstantinovich
Published: June 2022

The study of the composition of the rock using petrochemical, geochemical and other analytical studies makes it possible to obtain quantitative information about the content of chemical elements, more accurately diagnose the object under study and create an idea of its genesis. Acidic volcanics of the sablegorsk subvolcanic complex (Subpolar Urals) are represented by rhyolites, trachyrhyolites, rhyodacites, trachydacites and dacites with high silicon contents, up to ultra-acidic varieties, from low-alkaline to moderately alkaline calc-alkaline series of rocks. By the nature of their concentration, trace elements have a very similar distribution with inner continent.
Mineral-petrographic and geochemical features of conglomerates of the Belokataisk formation, conditions of formation and their minergenia
Authors:   Ural State Mining University, Trutnev Artyom Konstantinovich , Zhuklin Evgeny Alexandrovich ,   Ural State Mining University, Prokopchuk D.I. ,   Ural State Mining University, Demina Lyubov Andreevna ,   Ural State Mining University
Published: June 2022

In the geological history of the Earth, conglomerates are found in a variety of formations, including platform and geosynclinal formations, in molasse strata of intermontane depressions, foredeeps, etc. A detailed analysis of conglomerates makes it possible to identify the facies (formational) belonging of sedimentary deposits, their place in the history of geological development, mineralogical, petrographic and geochemical features, which ultimately leads to the identification of metallogenic specialization of specific sedimentary strata.

Deposits of Hydrocarbons of non-сlassical reservoir-rocks
Authors:   Perm State University, Yurkina Anastasia , Kozhevnikova Elena Evgenievna ,   Perm State University
Published: June 2022

The oil and gas content of unconventional reservoirs is less widespread and small compared to carbonate and clastic reservoirs, however, the development of such fields is expedient, since there are unique and high-rate fields with significant oil and gas reserves that can function in a gusher mode for many years. The article discusses the features of the basement structure and the formation of deposits in the sample of the White Tiger deposit.

Examination of Qur'an Course Activity Books for 4-6 Year-Old Children in Terms of Story Content and Illustration Features
Authors: GELİCİ Zehra
Published: June 2022

Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı 2013-2014 eğitim yılıyla birlikte kendine yeni bir hizmet alanı açmış ve Cumhuriyet tarihinde ilk olarak resmi okul öncesi din eğitimini 4-6 yaş Kur’an Kursları ile başlatmıştır. Bu alanda her geçen yıl tecrübe kazanılmış olsa da çeşitli noktalarda bazı sorunların devam ettiği görülmektedir. Araştırmanın konusu 4-6 yaş Kur’an Kursları etkinlik kitaplarında yer alan hikâyelerin içerik ve resimlendirme bakımından okul öncesi çağındaki çocuklar için uygunluğunun incelenmesidir. Araştırmamızın amacı, okul öncesi dönemde okuma yazma bilmeyen çocuklar için hikâyelerin ve özellikle de hikâyelerde yer alan resimlerin ve görsellerin öğrenmede çok önemli bir paya sahip olduğunun altını çizerek etkinlik ve ders kitaplarının düzenlenmesine ve zenginleştirilmesine katkı sağlamaktır. Nitel bir araştırma olan çalışmada mevcut etkinlik kitapları incelenmiştir. Araştırma, var olan durumu, var olduğu şekilde betimlemeyi amaçlayan tarama modelidir ve etkinlik kitaplarındaki hikâyeler ve resimler betimsel analiz yoluyla incelenmiştir. Ulaşılan sonuçlara göre; 4-6 yaş Kur’an Kurslarındaki etkinlik kitaplarındaki hikâyelerin içeriklerinin okul öncesi çocukların seviyesine göre, bilgilendirme işlevini gören ancak etkileme ve çocukta merak uyandırma noktasında yetersiz olduğu, resimlerinin ise bazı hikâyelerde metne uygun olmadığı ve çocuğun hayal dünyasına hitap etmediği tespit edilmiştir. Bu konuda daha hareketli ve renkli resimlerle hazırlanmış ders ve etkinlik kitaplarının gerekliliği ortaya konmuş ve önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
