MODERN CONCEPT OF RENDERING AID TO WOMEN WITH OVARIAN HEMORRHAGES
Authors: Gladchuk Igor Z. , Nazarenko Oleg Ya. , Volyanska Alla G. , Kozhakov Vitalii L.
Published: June 2021

Aim: Analysis of modern medical care for women with ovarian hemorrhage, determination of the main diagnostic criteria that influence the choice of treatment tactics and further prognosis of the outcome of treatment of ovarian apoplexy.
Material and methods: The provision of medical care to 888 women with ovarian apoplexy. Depending on the volume of hemoperitoneum, all patients were divided into three groups.: Group I – 480 (54.0%) women in whom intraabdominal bleeding did not exceed 200 ml; Group II – 283 (31.8%) patients with hemoperitoneum ranged from 200 to 500 ml; Group III – 125 (14.1%) patients with hemoperitoneum volume greater than 500 ml.
Results: According to the data of the transvaginal US , a linear dependence was observed between the level of free liquid and the volume of hemoperitoneum (r=0.63, p<0.05). In 792 (89.2%) patients the diagnosis of apoplexy of the ovary and intraperitoneal hemorrhage was made to surgical intervention- on the basis of clinical picture and US data. The most frequently performed hemostatic operation was resection of the ovary – 477 (77.2%) interventions. The average volume of hemoperitoneum discovered in patients with AO, in absence of the adhesive process was (273.5±21.3) ml, whereas in patients with the expressed adhesive process of the small pelvis organs it was (141.4±35.5) ml. The cause of AO was the corpus luteum or cyst of the corpus luteum in more than the half of the cases – 348 (56.3%).
Conclusions: The manifestation of the clinical symptoms in apoplexy of the ovaries depends on the volume of intraperitoneal hemorrhage. The application of laparoscopy as a main therapeutic and prophylactic method in AO allows to preserve, and sometimes to restore the reproductive function of a woman and to reduce the rate of the disease relapse development.

The article discusses Georgian microzonal vini-viticulture potential. We have described Georgian wine denomination of origin production and trends. Also, we have analyzed the current situation and perspectives of micro zone agriculture. The appellation wines are different from table wines and has the international economic value. We have provided evidence with the example of local and international experience, that the development of the wine appellations is one of the best ways to develop wine economics. We have made conclusion about the advantages of this kind of wines. In the end we provided the recommendations about studying, developing and forming wine microzones.
Both based on the experience of Georgian and international countries we have analyzed all the opportunities that microzonal agriculture, especially appellation wines have. We have discussed the theoretical and practical aspects of the Georgian winemaking and possibilities to develop Georgian viticulture with the help of Micro zones.
In the article we have analyzed how the development of the current wine microzones and establishment of new appellations can develop both social and economic situation of Georgian winemaking. How both of the cases affect the region.
The purpose of the development of micro regional winemaking is to increase the quality of wine production, also to create better quality control mechanisms and of course to make Georgian wine more popular on domestic and international markets. The development of micro zonal winemaking can be established with the help of international and local wine professionals and with the help of international experience.
In the end of the article we have summarized all the possibilities that we have discussed in the main part of the article and we have made recommendations for Georgian wine industry.

Forecasting the flow of Russian rivers by hydrograph extrapolation / Borsch S.V., Koliy V.M., Semenova N.K., Simonov Yu.A., Khristoforov A.V. // Hydrometeorological Research and Forecasting, 2021, no. 2 (380), pp. 77-94. An automated system has been developed based on the hydrograph extrapolation method, which allows the year-round daily forecasting of water level and streamflow for the Russian rivers with up to 10-day lead time. The forecast of discharges or water levels is expressed by a linear formula depending on their values on the date of the forecast issue and five previous days. The forecasting scheme limits the possible minimum and maximum values of the discharge or water level based on historical data. Forecast schemes were obtained for 2776 river gauges. The time period from 2010 to 2019 with daily observations of discharge and water level was used. The forecast verification shows that this method can be successfully applied to large rivers with smooth hydrographs. Keywords: daily discharge and water levels, short- and medium-term forecasts, hydrograph extrapolation method, forecast verification, maximum lead time of satisfactory forecasts, self-learning of an automated system for preparing and issuing forecasts

Published: June 2021

T. A. Burton presented in some examples of integral equations a notion of progressive contractions on C([a,\infty \lbrack). In 2019, I. A. Rus formalized this notion (I. A. Rus, Some variants of contraction principle in the case of operators with Volterra property: step by step contraction principle, Advances in the Theory of Nonlinear Analysis and its Applications, 3 (2019) No. 3, 111–120), put “step by step” instead of “progressive” in this notion, and give some variant of step by step contraction principle in the case of operators with Volterra property on C([a,b],\mathbb{B)} and C([a,\infty \lbrack,\mathbb{B}) where \mathbb{B} is a Banach space. In this paper we use the abstract result given by I. A. Rus, to study some classes of functional differential equations with maxima.

Authors: Paledung Christanto Sema Rappan , Hia Alfa Kristian
Published: June 2021

Abstrak Studi ini merupakan uraian historis mengenai pergulatan gereja-gereja di Indonesia terhadap relevansi pengakuan iman dengan konteks kehadirannya. Uraian ini berfokus kepada beberapa gereja lokal ini Indonesia, yakni Gereja Toraja, Gereja Kristen Indonesia, Huria Kristen Batak Protestan, dan Gereja-gereja Kristen Jawa. Gereja-gereja tersebut lahir dari rahim zending yang membuatnya menggunakan pengakuan iman dari gereja pendahulunya. Namun, pergulatan dengan konteksnya membuat gereja-gereja tersebut harus merumuskan pengakuan iman dengan kesadaran konteksnya. Studi ini menelusuri pergulatan tersebut dengan menggunakan pendekatan historis. Pada bagian akhir, kami akan membandingkannya dengan Pengakuan Bersama Iman Kristen yang dirumuskan Persekutuan Gereja-gereja di Indonesia. Argumen utama tulisan ini adalah bahwa pengakuan iman sebuah gereja merupakan wujud pergulatannya dengan tradisi di mana ia berpijak dengan konteks kehadirannya.AbstractThis study is a historical description of the struggles of the churches in Indonesia on the relevance of the profession of faith to the context of their presence. This description focuses on some of these local churches in Indonesia, namely the Toraja Church, the Indonesian Christian Church, The Batak Christian Protestant Church, and the Javanese Christian Churches. These churches were born from the womb of zending which made them use the confession of faith from his predecessor church. However, the struggle with the context makes these churches have to formulate the confession of faith with awareness of the context. This paper explores these struggles using a historical approach. At the end, we will compare it with the Common Confession of Christian Faith formulated by the Communion of Churches in Indonesia. Our main argument is that the confession of faith of a church is a form of its struggle with the tradition in which it stands with the context of its presence.

Flucht und Vertreibung von Sozialwissenschaftlern aus Deutschland und die Konsequenzen im 20. Jahrhundert
Authors: Roth Ralf
Published: June 2021

Das Problem der Wissenschaftsfreiheit wird in dem folgenden Beitrag im Zusammenhang mit der Problematik von Vertreibung und politischen Zwangsmigration diskutiert, und zwar am Beispiel der Verfolgung von Sozialwissenschaftlern vor und während des Zweiten Weltkriegs in Deutschland.
Flucht und Vertreibung legten allerdings die Grundlagen für die wissenschaftlichen Erfolge vieler Emigranten in den 1950er und 1960er Jahren. Voraussetzung dafür war das hohe Maß an scientific freedom, das den emigrierten deutschen Wirtschaftswissenschaftlern, Soziologen
und Sozialphilosophen in den USA gewährt wurde. Der Beitrag handelt also einerseits von der Zerstörung der Wissenschaftsfreiheit und widmet sich andererseits den komplexen, weit über Deutschland hinausgehenden Folgen, die daraus resultieren, weil die Exilanten in der Fremde
wissenschaftlich arbeiten konnten. Der von den Nationalsozialisten erzwungene brain drain wirkte in den USA umgekehrt als brain gain mit weitreichenden Konsequenzen für die Nachkriegsordnung der Welt. Insgesamt war dies eine glänzende Bestätigung von Francis Bacons

Für das Allgemeinwohl. Gesellschaft, Recht und institutionelle Macht als fördernde und hemmende Faktoren akademischer Freiheit in den Vereinigten Staaten
Authors: Clark Thomas
Published: June 2021

Die amerikanische Öffentlichkeit und selbst viele Akademiker scheinen sich der Natur akademischer Freiheit wenig bewusst zu sein. Das populärste Missverständnis ist wahrscheinlich, dass sie sich direkt aus der Garantie der freien Rede des ersten Zusatzes der US-Verfassung
ableiten lässt. Aber diese und andere Verschmelzungen der Rede- und der Wissenschaftsfreiheit ignorieren sowohl die historischen als auch die gegenwärtigen Bedingungen im amerikanischen Hochschulwesen, durch die akademische Freiheit aktuell wesentlich komplexer definiert wird.1
Mein Beitrag beschäftigt sich daher mit zwei Punkten: Indem ich einige der wichtigsten gesellschaftlichen, rechtlichen und institutionellen Faktoren untersuche, welche die akademische Freiheit in den USA ermöglichen und welche sie einschränken, werde ich argumentieren, dass
sie weit fragiler ist, als ihre robuste Fassade es scheinen lässt. Als intellektueller Historiker, der sich mit politischen Ideen beschäftigt, möchte ich die Hypothese erläutern, dass die Wissenschaftsfreiheit in Amerika von der starken Tradition des klassischen Republikanismus
geprägt wurde, welche die bürgerliche Tugend sowie das Allgemeinwohl ins Zentrum der Gesellschaft, verstanden als πόλις (polis), stellt.
CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES OF THE DECLINE IN CIVIL ACTIVISM OF TEACHERS IN REGIONAL CENTERS OF RUSSIAN REGIONS
Authors: Levchenko N. V.
Published: June 2021

The article analyzes the forms of civil activism in teaching, identified in the course of field research in 2013-2016 and in 2019. So, in 2013-2016, we found that teachers continued to show an active position in their activities, driven by civic duty. As part of the research, it was found that only those innovations introduced in education that are accepted by the teaching community are successfully adapted at the level of regional centers of the Russian Federation. At the same time, according to the results of a study conducted in 2019, it was found that civil activism is declining among teachers, and they are limited to providing educational services. As a method of sociological survey, focus groups were chosen with representatives of the district administration, teachers of General education institutions, employees of additional education institutions, and figures of cultural and leisure institutions.
POSSIBILITIES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN TEACHING HIGHER MATHEMATICS
Authors: Apatova N. V. , Gaponov A. I. , Smirnova O. Yu.
Published: June 2021

The example of application of methods of computer representation of knowledge to the «Matrix» of the higher mathematics course, the authors examine the possibility of using elements of artificial intelligence, but do not propose an exhaustive algorithm for the construction of relevant systems, and based on the known thesis: «intellectual tasks no formal solution algorithm». Moreover, we implicitly proceed from the concept that when solving problems that require the participation of human intelligence, artificial intelligence can be only an auxiliary tool. Analysis of Russian and English sources has led to the conclusion that automated the process of proving mathematical theorems with the use of artificial intelligence (including neural networks) leads first-year students does not lead first-year students to the natural goal of teaching higher mathematics – » to teach logical reasoning. Usually the result comes down to «programmed» using the keyboard that, in certain circumstances, of course, is a very useful skill. But, unfortunately, the task «to teach the student to think, to reason logically and think outside the box», based on modern level of development of artificial intelligence (machine learning), according to the authors, is not yet resolved. Using the same knowledge base in an adequate format, and semantic networks allow at least allow you to at least get closer to the possibility of using artificial intelligence in the proof of theorems of higher mathematics. Because properly constructed semantic network will greatly assist as a teacher is in presenting the proof of the theorem, and demonstrate to the students a well-known logical connections and, we hope, will interest them in creating a new one. The above arguments determine the purpose of the proposed study is to build semantic networks for proof of mathematical theorems, and to solve the so-called «proof-based» tasks. In our opinion, the results of this study will not only contribute to streamlining the structure by the teacher and better understanding by students of the relevant sections of mathematics, but few will bring the solution of the problem of formation of artificial intelligence, based on the decision of «evidence-based» tasks of higher mathematics.
Telluride Mineralogy of the Deer Horn Au-Ag-Te-(Bi-Pb-W) Deposit, British Columbia: Implications for the Generation of Tellurides
Authors: Roberts Jordan A. , Groat Lee A. , Spry Paul G. , Cempírek Jan
Published: June 2021

The Deer Horn deposit, located 150 km south of Smithers in west-central British Columbia, is an Eocene polymetallic system enriched in Au-Ag-Te with lesser amounts of Bi-Pb-W; the Au and Ag are hosted in Te-bearing minerals and Ag-rich gold (Au-Ag alloy). A quartz-sulfide vein system containing the main zones of Au-Ag-Te mineralization and attendant sericite alteration occurs in the hanging wall of a local, spatially related thrust fault and is genetically related to the nearby Eocene Nanika granodiorite intrusive suite. Tellurium-bearing minerals commonly form isolated euhedral to subhedral grains or composite grains (up to 525 μm in size) of Ag-, Bi-, Pb-, and Au-rich tellurium-bearing minerals (e.g., hessite, tellurobismuthite, volynskite, altaite, and petzite). Panchromatic cathodoluminescence imaging revealed four generations of quartz. Within remnant cores of quartz I, local oscillatory zoning occurs in quartz II. Fine-grained veinlets of quartz III and IV crosscut quartz I and II, showing evidence of at least two deformation events; late-forming veinlets of calcite crosscut all generations of quartz. The tellurides and Ag-rich gold occur in stage III quartz. Three types of fluid inclusions were observed in stage III and IV quartz: (1) aqueous liquid and vapor inclusions (L-V); (2) aqueous carbonic inclusions (L-L-V); and (3) carbonic inclusions (vapor-rich). Primary fluid inclusions related to the telluride mineralization within quartz III were tested with microthermometry, along with a few primary inclusions from quartz IV. Homogenization temperatures are 130.0–240.5 °C for L-V inclusions and 268.0–336.4 °C for L-L-V inclusions. Aqueous carbonic inclusions had solid CO2 melting temperatures from –62.1 to –56.8 °C, indicating the presence of ≈1 to 30 mol.% dissolved methane in these inclusions.

The Deer Horn Au-Ag-Te-(Bi-Pb-W) deposit is a reduced intrusion-related gold system characterized by sheeted veins, metal zoning, low salinity aqueous-carbonic fluids, and a genetic relationship to an Eocene granodiorite. Values of δ34S of pyrite vary from –1.6 to 1.6 per mil and are compatible with a magmatic source of sulfur.

Thyroid disorders are associated with the abnormalities occur in thyroid hormone concentration and imbalancein their regulation may causes life threatening diseases. Thus, the present study was planned to establish theprevalence of thyroid defects in Diyala, Iraq due to paucity of information is available in our region. Total67 subjects in the age range of 20-80 years were recruited in Al - Shafa hospital, Diyala, Iraq, sufferingfrom thyroid disorders or suspected with the symptoms favoring thyroid diseases. Thyroid function test andphysical examination were performed. Those who were found alteration in thyroid hormones and presenceof nodules, further investigation like FNAC of neck was performed for the diagnosis. Once confirmation ofthyroid defect, total thyroidectomy was performed as a first line of treatment and malignancy was confirmedusing histopathology analysis. The incidence of thyroid diseases in female (86.57%) was found to be morethan male (13.43%) and there ratio was 19.3:3. The thyroid defects incident rate was highest in mean 49years age. Almost 61.2% patients were found affected by thyroid disorders in this age group. The largestnumber of patients (64.18%) had shown MNG, then other thyroid defects out of which 4 female patientspresented very big thyroid multinodular goiter (MNG). Among 43 MNG patients, 86% patients were femaleand 4% were male. Of the 67 cytologically diagnosed cases, 79.10% cases were found benign cases whichare highest among all other types, out of which 91% cases were female. Among the thyroid disorder burdenof thyroid carcinoma is very high and common in the enrolled patients in Diyala, further longitudinal studiesare required to explore the prognosis and causes of these thyroid defects in the Iraq.

Diabetes mellitus, often referred to simply as diabetes, is a chronic metabolic disorder due to the relativedeficiency of insulin secretion and varying degrees of insulin resistance. It is characterised by high circulatingglucose. Excessive levels of either molecular oxygen or Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) lead to an imbalancein the body’s normal oxidative metabolism that to leads to high glucose levels in the blood (hyperglycaemia),resulting in metabolic disturbances (oxidative stress) and chronic complications in diabetes. The presentstudy aims to estimate the antioxidant activity in diabetic mice induced via alloxan of a combination ofthree types of plant leaves (Conocarpus lancifolius L., Capparis spinosa L. and Dodonaea viscosa). Thetotal phenolic content using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent and the antioxidant activity utilizing 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay were estimated. The effect of polyherbal formulation leaves extracts onserum glucose level was done on forty-two albino mice divided into six groups and treated with polyherbalextracts and metformin. The results of total phenolic content in the polyherbal leaves extracts was observed(15.52 mg\g) in the aqueous extracted samples, while the total phenolics content was (46.97mg\g) in themethanolic extract, and the antioxidant activity showed the methanolic extract was the highest free radicalscavenging activity (93.28%) than the aqueous extract (86.77%) in 10 mg/ml and approach to the artificialantioxidant Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) which was (93.67%). This study showed both extracts ofpolyherbal leaves did not induce lethality in mice when administered orally at a dose of 2000 mg/kg. on theother hand, Diabetic mice treated with methanolic extract at doses 200 and 400 mg/kg showed a significantdecrease (p<0.01) in serum glucose level after 35 days, which was 113.66 and 107.66 mg/dl respectively,and the aqueous extract was 124.66 and 117.00 mg/dl respectively when compared with the control positivegroup (324.00 mg/dl).

Measles is a vaccine-preventable disease. The case increases over the past 3 years in Indonesia. Thestudy aimed to analyze the correlation between health resources and measles. The ecological analysis wasconducted using secondary data from the Ministry of Health report in 2019. All provinces were taken assamples. Apart from measles cases as a dependent variable, while the independent variable consists of a ratioof public health center (PHC), a number of active Posyandu(Integrated Health Post), adequacy of midwives,availability of five typesof promotive-preventive health workers at PHC, availability of drug and essentialvaccine at PHC and the obedience of district drug warehouse to applied good management of drug andvaccine. The univariate analysis shows a descriptive table. Bivariate analyses were analyzed using a scatterplot. The results showa gap of measles cases between province in Indonesia were uneven. The highestmeasles cases occurred at Central Java (1.310cases) and the lowest at North Maluku (0 cases). The mean ofsuspect measles was 226, the higher cases of mean were dominated at Java. The variable of health workerand health logistic depict a random pattern with measles cases. It was concluded that the effectiveness ofhealth workers to prevent measles was measured by their performance. As well as optimizing the potentialof five types of promotive-preventive health workers at the PHC. The choice of method in distributionmanagement and vaccine management at the health center level must be a concern.

Manipulation in the administration of elections is incompatible with the spirit of democracy. Bawaslu is adetermining body for upholding democratic values of elections and must carry out the mandate of the law.The failures in terms of election supervision carried out by Bawaslu in implementing previous electionsupervision must be evaluated fundamentally so that future election violations can be avoided and reduced.Weak control at the time of voting implies the abuse of a person’s voting rights by repeatedly voting, injuringthe voting results. An honest and quality election is achieved if all elements of society, especially the partiesinvolved in organizing the election, can maintain their credibility, independence and advance the Nation andthe State.

Background:-ABO and Rhesus blood group system is considered as clinically significant blood groupsystems in transfusion practice . A feature of the ABO system is the regular occurrence of anti A and anti B inthe absence of the corresponding red cell antigen. A Discrepancy exists when results of forward testing doesnot match with reverse testing. Blood donors and patients must be correctly ABO and Rh grouped becausetransfusing ABO incompatible blood transfusions which may lead even death of patient.Aims and Objectives To assess the incidence and cause of blood grouping discrepancies in Blood Bankat Tertiary care teaching hospital during Jan 2019 to December 2019.Methods : Forward and reverse grouping were performed on blood samples from inpatients ,outpatientsand donors during the study period. ABO discrepancies were studied with their clinical details to group theirdiscrepancies and resolve them with suitable steps.Results: A total of 10,048 (patients and donors) who satisfied inclusion criteria were included and ABOtyped among which there were 55 discrepancies were observed (15 donors and 35 patients). The problemin patients was due to expression of weak antigens. The problem in patients were due to clinical conditions,the most common being autoimmune haemolytic anaemia.Conclusions: The ABO blood group discrepancy reported in present study is 0.49%. The study helped todetermine the incidence and causes of discrepancy encountered in tertiary care hospital. Discrepant resultsshould be recorded, and resolved by suitable measures and correct ABO & Rh Blood group should bereleased to avoid any mismatched transfusions.
