Batı Medeniyeti Düşünü Doğu’nun Pygmalion’unda Seyretmek: Felâtun Bey ile Râkım Efendi ve Naomi Adlı Romanlara Karşılaştırmalı Bir Yaklaşım
Authors: İLHAN Nilüfer , İLHAN Nilüfer
Published: October 2022

Batı’da Rönesans, reform ve coğrafi keşiflerle başlayan, sonrasında Fransız ihtilali ve endüstri devrimiyle birlikte siyasi ve sosyal alanda büyük bir değişimi başlatan ve aydınlanma olarak adlandırılan süreç, Batı medeniyetinin etkisinin tüm dünyaya yayılmasını sağlar. Batı dışı toplumların bu süreci yakalamak ve geç kaldıklarını düşünerek devlet eliyle yaptıkları değişimler, geleneksel olanla modernitenin bir aradalığına kendini bırakıp taklidi ya da çatışmayı beraberinde getirir. İkiliğin oluşturduğu bilincin yaralanmasını göz önüne sermek ve üstesinden gelmek için edebî türler içerisinde romanın da rol üstlendiği görülür. Romanlarda yeni bir medeniyet dairesinin aile ve kadına yansıması, erkek karakterin hayalini kurduğu kadın imgesi ile verilmeye çalışılır. Erkeğin hayalinde arzuladığı kadın imgesini ortaya döküp bir eser inşa etmesi ve eserine âşık olması ise Yunan mitolojisindeki Pygmalion’la karşılık bulur. Pygmalion mitinde, erkek sanatkâr “bir kadın yaratmakla” aktif bir rolde olurken, kadın da beden ve zihninin bir başkası tarafından biçimlendirilmeye çalışılması ile pasif bir konumdadır. Bu bağlamda Batı medeniyetinin yeni ahlâk ve yaşam tarzının topluma yansımasını gözlemleyen Tanzimat edebiyatından Ahmet Mithat Efendi Felâtun Bey ile Râkım Efendi (1875) ve modern Japon edebiyatından Juniçiro Tanizaki de Naomi (1924) isimli romanında erkek karakter üzerinden yeni kadın imgesinin nasıl olması gerektiğini ortaya koyar. Bu çalışmada, söz konusu romanlardaki erkek karakterler ve onların “eserini” temsil eden kadın figürleri arasındaki benzerlik ve farklılıklar incelenecektir.

The objective: to define the specificities of clinical characteristics in women of reproductive age with endometrial hyperplasia associated with hypothyroidism.Materials and methods. There were 180 women with endometrial hyperplasia under our supervision. In 120 women, the pathology of endometrium was associated with newly diagnosed hypothyroidism. The patients with the thyroid dysfunctions were divided into the following groups: asymptomatic persons – 48 cases; symptomatic ones – 45 women; compensated patients with mild symptoms – 27 individuals. The control group consisted of 60 patients with endometrial hyperplasia without thyroid pathology.The data of the somatic and gynecological anamnesis, the concentration of sex hormones and thyroid hormones, the results of histological examination of the endometrium were analyzed in all the women.Results. The following data were found: the age of women with hyperprolactinemia without thyroid pathology is younger than the age of those with hyperprolactinemia and thyroid pathology; hypothyroidism in women with endometrial hyperplasia is contingent on frequently growing body weight, but not obesity; the most common concomitant pathology in women with endometrial hyperplasia and hypothyroidism was mastopathy which was diagnosed almost in every third patient. The frequency of such endocrine pathologies as polycystic ovary syndrome and hyperprolactinemia in women with endometrial hyperplasia has almost increased twice in the presence of hypothyrosis. In case of endometrial hyperplasia and hypothyrosis there was a significant decrease of estradiol concentration with a preserved level of gonadotropic hormones (luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone), and the lowest values were defined in women with symptomatic hypothyroidism. Chronic endometritis, the detection rate of which does not depend on thyroid dysfunction, was diagnosed in 61.5 % patients with endometrial hyperplasia.Conclusions. Thyroid dysfunction is involved in the mechanisms of development of hyperplastic processes of the endometrium, which is the basis for screening the functional state of the thyroid gland in women with endometrial pathology.

Bu çalışmanın amacı imalat sanayi ile hizmetler sektörünün katma değerleri ile GSYH arasındaki ilişkilerin zaman serisi modelleri kullanılarak tespit edilmesidir. Türkiye için 1960-2020 yıllık verilerinin kullanıldığı bu çalışmada, serilerin doğrusallığını tespit etmek amacıyla Harvey vd. (2008) Harvey ve Leybourne (2007) doğrusallık testleri, doğrusal tespit edilen seriler için Genişletilmiş Dickey-Fuller (ADF), Philips-Perron (PP) ile Kwiatkowski-Philips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS) geleneksel birim kök testleri ile doğrusal olmayan seriler için Kapetanios, Shin ve Snell (2003) (KSS) birim kök testleri yapılmıştır. Serilerin durağan tespit edilmesinden sonra Kapetanios, Shin ve Snell (KSS) (2006) koentegrasyon testi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yapılan analiz sonuçlarına göre, Türkiye’de imalat sanayi ile hizmetler sektörünün katma değerleri ile GSYH arasında koentegre ilişki bulunamamıştır. Üç değişken arasında koentegre ilişki bulunmuyor olması, Türkiye’de imalat sanayi sektörünün katma değeri ile hizmetler sektörü katma değerinin ekonomik büyümeyi yeterince desteklemediği anlamına gelmektedir. Birbirleriyle ilişkili olan söz konusu değişkenlerin ekonomik büyümeye olan etkilerinin, yani imalat sanayi ile hizmetler sektörünün katma değerinin artırılması adına politika yapıcıların uygulamalar gerçekleştirmesi önemlidir.

To improve public services and improve the regional economy, regional autonomy is implemented. To help the whole community, a program called Village Fund Allocation (ADD) was created. ADD is a term used to describe the financial interactions between different levels of government. As a business that sells locally produced goods and services, BUMDes achieves its social and financial goals by offering a variety of goods and services to the market (goods and services). However, the efforts of BUMDes have not been successful in Babaksari Village, Dukun District and Gresik District. However, this study evaluates the elements that limit and encourage the implementation of village fund budget allocations in BUMDes (Case Study of Babaksari Village, Dukun District, Gresik Regency). Descriptive qualitative research is a type of qualitative research. Observations, interviews, and village record collection were all used to collect data. Although ADD was designed in part through village dialogue, the results of this study indicate that community involvement remained minimal throughout the process. The complete implementation of actions related to the realization of the use of ADD for community empowerment in Babaksari Village will cost Rp 49,319,785,472.05, - and take three months. BUMDesa Mekar Sari has a savings and loan service program that aims to increase family income while at the same time fostering independence as part of its goal. There is no responsibility to the community, as the researchers found, in the accountability step of the procedure. As a consequence of the low level of involvement of the Babaksari community in the management of Add, human resources are considered as an ideal supporting component that results in well-running village governance.

Published: October 2022

This study is conducted to identify and evaluate the factors affecting the migration behavior of workers in garment enterprises in Vietnam. The subjects selected for the survey are workers who are working at many garment enterprises in some cities and provinces such as Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh, Bac Ninh, Nam Dinh, and Binh Phuoc... By conducting a survey to collect opinions from 312 employees and using SPSS statistical software to test the hypotheses; based on SEM linear structural model with 3 groups of factors affecting the intention to migrate to find job workers and consider the impact of the intention to migrate on the decision to migrate off the workers, the research results show that the factors "Behavior"; "Subjective norm" and "Perceived behavioral control" have a positive impact on the intention to migrate of garment workers with the impact level of +0,523; +0.73; +0.439; and the factor "Migration intention of garment workers" has a positive correlation to "Migration behavior of garment workers" with an impact level of +1.0, meaning the variation of intention to migration will lead to a corresponding change of migration behavior. From the testing, analysis, and evaluation of the factors affecting the migration intention and behavior of workers in Vietnamese garment enterprises, the research team has made some exchanges and discussions to attract more employees to the garment industry, contributing to promoting economic growth and creating sustainable jobs for workers.

Published: October 2022

Background: To our knowledge, no systematic update on the descriptive epidemiology of endometriosis and its trends has been published based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) datasets. To investigate the burden of endometriosis in 204 countries and territories from 1990 to 2019. Methods: Data were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 datasets. Estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) were calculated to assess trends in the incidence and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) of endometriosis. Measures were stratified by region, country, age, and socio-demographic index (SDI). Results: From 1990 to 2019, the global incidence and DALYs of endometriosis increased by 10.37% and 16.36%, respectively. However, both the age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized DALY rate of endometriosis showed downward trends (EAPC = –0.81 and –0.80, respectively). The ASIR decreased in all SDI regions, with the largest decrease observed in low-middle SDI regions [EAPC = –1.19, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): –1.21 to –1.16] except Eastern Europe, the only region where the ASIR increased (EAPC = 0.15, 95% CI: 0.01 to 0.29). The largest decreases in the ASIR and age-standardized DALY rate of endometriosis were observed in Qatar and Oman, respectively. Conclusions: The global incidence and DALYs of endometriosis continued to increase during 1990–2019. However, the ASIR and age-standardized DALY rate have shown decreasing trends worldwide, with increasing trends detected only in Eastern Europe.

Published: October 2022

Background: Coronary heart disease is a highly prevalent inflammatory disease caused by coronary atherosclerosis. Numerous studies have revealed that perivascular adipose tissue is closely associated with atherosclerosis. Here, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of long non-coding RNAs and mRNAs differentially expressed in perivascular adipose tissue in patients with coronary heart disease. Methods: We conducted Gene Ontology term and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses of the differentially expressed genes. Furthermore, single sample gene set enrichment analysis, immune infiltration analysis, and co-expression analysis of differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs and immune gene sets were performed. Finally, the starBase and miRTarBase databases were used to construct a competing endogenous RNA network. Results: The results show that aortic perivascular adipose tissue has higher inflammation and immune infiltration levels in patients with coronary heart disease. Dysregulated long non-coding RNAs may be related to immunity, inflammation, and hypoxia. Conclusions: The findings of this study provide new insights into atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease.

Published: October 2022

Background: In cardiology, the global phenomenon of population ageing poses new major challenges, ranging from more comorbid and frail patients to the presence of complex, calcified and multiple coronary lesions. Considering that elderly patients are under-represented in randomized clinical trials (RCT), the aim of this systematic review is to summarize the current knowledge on the revascularization of the elderly patient with myocardial infarction and multivessel coronary artery disease. Methods: A systematic review following PRISMA guidelines has been performed. The search was conducted on Pubmed (Medline), Cochrane library, Google Scholar and Biomed Central databases between January and February 2022. We selected the articles focusing on patients hospitalized for myocardial infarction (MI) with multivessel disease and aged 75 years or older. A total of 36 studies have been included. Results: Multivessel coronary artery disease is present in around 50–60% of older patients with MI. The in-hospital mortality rate of patients older than 75 years is double compared to their younger counterpart, and the most prevalent complications after revascularization are bleeding and renal failure. In the treatment of patients with ST elevation MI (STEMI), primary percutaneous coronary intervention should be the first choice over fibrinolysis. However, it is not clear whether this population would benefit from complete revascularization or not. In patients with non-ST elevation MI (NSTEMI), an invasive approach with either percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass graft may be chosen, but a conservative strategy is also accepted. There are no data from large trials about the comparison of possible revascularization strategies in NSTEMI patients. Conclusions: This systematic review shows that this field of research lacks randomized clinical trials to guide revascularization strategy in older STEMI or NSTEMI patients with MI. New results are expected from ongoing trials.
Shadows and Light of the Fairy-Tale World: Romantic Imagery and Romantic Topos in the Works of Evgeny Schwartz
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Culture, RSU named after A.N. Kosygin, Zavelskaya Darya
Published: October 2022

This article examines the artistic specifi city of the images and motifs of the works of Evgeny Lvovich Schwartz (1896–1958), in whose dramaturgical and prose fairy tales the infl uence of the romantic literary tradition is traced. Turning to the works of Andersen and Perrault, amongst others, Schwartz transformed not only the original plots, but also the very fi gurative poetics of their works. A hypothesis is advanced on the infl uence on these poetics of the motifs and images of E. T. A. Hoffmann and German Romanticism in general. In part, such an infl uence became possible since the literary author’s fairy tale itself was formed largely thanks to German romanticism. However, it is also necessary to take into account the close creative interaction of Schwartz with the artistic association of the “Serapion brothers.” Special attention is paid to the poetics of urban topos in the fairy tales “Doll City”, “Adventures of Gogenstaufen”, and “Shadow”, where the romantic tradition inherent in such authors as Andersen, Hoffman, and Odoevsky is traced. Using the historical poetics method, the comparative historical method, and comparative analysis in the works of Schwartz, the principle of romantic duality is revealed: the interaction of shadow and light, the motif of illusion, and the style of phantasmagoria. The motif of vampirism in the literal and allegorical sense is also separately touched upon, with reference to the peculiarities of this motif in the poetics of Romanticism.
The Language Situation among the Italian Community of Koper (Slovenia): Field Study Data
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Pivovarenko Alexander , Pilipenko Gleb ,   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: October 2022

This paper discusses the current language situation among the Italian minority in Slovenian Primorje in Koper. During the fi eld research conducted by the authors’ team, narratives in Italian were recorded from informants. Using discursive and structural-typological methods of analysis, the authors reveal that the linguistic reality of modern Koper is perceived as constantly changing, and the Italian spontaneous speech of respondents is intertwined with borrowings from the surrounding South Slavic languages. The modern language situation is the result of historical changes in the Istria region during the twentieth century. In addition to insertions and quotations in Slovenian, items from the Croatian language are found, refl ecting the linguistic situation of the Yugoslav period and the border position of the Slovenian Primorje. Special attention is paid to analysis of the language competence of Italians in the Slovenian language, among representatives of both the older and younger generations of students. In the Slovene language of Italians, a number of features peculiar to Slavic dialects in Italy are found, which allows us to discuss the same linguistic factors. It is possible to reconstruct the language competence of older people only partially on the basis of indirect evidence. There is a discrepancy between the rights guaranteed under the law (the use of the Italian language) and the linguistic reality faced by informants, which may be the result of both a decline in the prestige of Italian and of the small number of the Italian diaspora, part of which is subject to language assimilation, including as a result of mixed marriages. The paper also discusses the role of the media and the linguistic landscape in the region.

Pettifer J., Vickers M. Lakes and Empires in Macedonian History: Contesting the Waters. London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2021. 240 p. ISBN 978-1-3502-2614-2
Authors:   School of International Relations, Saint Petersburg State University, Koloskov Evgenii
Published: October 2022

This review is devoted to the book “Lakes and Empires in Macedonian History: Contesting the Waters” by James Pettifer and Miranda Vickers. Two British authors who are world famous specialists in Balkan history (Oxford University Professor J. Pettifer and M. Vickers, now a “free agent”) present to the public the history of the Prespa Lake region, which gained some fame after the signing of the Prespa agreement. This agreement ended the Macedonian name dispute, which dated back to 1991. The authors, who have an impressive scholarly background, show the results of more than 30 years of study of the region. The review provides an overview of the book, the translation of which into Russian is not only the desire of the monograph’s authors, but also our recommendation. The book makes a successful attempt to trace the complex history of a multi-ethnic and multi-religious microcosm around the lake owned by three countries: Albania, Greece, and North Macedonia. Primary attention is paid to the history of the inhabitants of the village of Psarades / Nivitsi in Greek Macedonia. This small settlement on the shores of the Prespa, with a long history of political upheavals, now, like the entire region, also faces environmental diffi culties – the problem of the lake’s shallowing clearly demonstrates new challenges for the inhabitants of this Balkan microcosm, which traditionally has been oriented towards fi shing. The authors use a wide variety of scientifi c methods for the description, analysis, and study of the Prespa region. Specifi c attention in this review is paid to the methods of studying ecological history.

Published: October 2022

Industrialization and consumerism have aroused growing concern about energy depletion, necessitating a transition from fossil fuel to renewable energy sources. To this end, every segment of the population should shoulder responsibility for mitigating environmental problems, especially the young generation. This study contributes to the literature on environment management and development by improving the understanding of young adults’ intention to acquire energy conservation knowledge and its correlation with their demographics and environmental concerns. We employed a systematic randomized sampling method and conducted a large-scale online survey with the participation of 1454 students in 48 different universities in Vietnam. The first results show that young adults had significant environmental concerns, yet more efforts are demanded to turn perceptions into actions or contributions. Almost 83% expressed a desire for energy-saving knowledge, and roughly 50% are willing to take an energy course. We found that the young adults' perception and high income were positively associated with their decision on energy course enrolment. Demographically, women were more likely to take energy-saving courses, and those living urban areas had a higher desire for knowledge enhancement. These findings have numerous policy implications for facilitating energy transformation based on improved environmental education programs for sustainable development in Vietnam and beyond.
Nanoparticles by green method, a comparative study with chemical method
Authors: khan Sharjeel
Published: October 2022

The ‘‘green synthesis’’ of metal nanoparticles receives greater attention due to their unusual optical, chemical, photo-chemical, and electronic properties (Mohanpuria, Rana, & Yadav, 2008). Nanoparticles are of great interest due to large surface to volume ratio and their extremely small size, which lead to differences in their both physical and chemical differences in their properties (e.g. biological, catalytic activity, thermal and electrical conductivity, mechanical properties, sterical properties, optical absorption and melting point) compared to bulk of the same chemical composition (Iravani, 2011). Metal nanoparticles are hugely considered due to their unique electrical, optical, catalytic properties and enhanced surface chemistry and high surface area. (Bar et al., 2009).

Authors: Minihan Savannah , Songco Annabel , Fox Elaine , Ladouceur Cecile D. , Mewton Louise , Moulds Michelle Leanne , Pfeifer Jennifer H , Van Harmelen Anne-Laura , Schweizer Susanne
Published: October 2022

Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic there has been a rise in common mental health problems compared to pre-pandemic levels, especially in young people. Understanding the factors that place young people at risk is critical to guide the response to increased mental health problems. Here we examine whether age-related differences in mental flexibility and frequency of use of emotion regulation strategies partially account for the higher levels of negative affectivity, reduced positive affectivity, and increased mental health problems reported by younger relative to older people during the pandemic.Method: Participants (N=2,367; 89.95% female, 11-100 years) from Australia, UK, and USA were surveyed thrice at three-month intervals during the first year of the pandemic (May 2020–April 2021). Participants completed measures of frequency of use of emotion regulation strategies, mental flexibility, negative and positive affect, and mental health problems. Results: Younger age was associated with less positive (b =0.008, p<.001) and more negative (b=−0.015, p<.001) affect across the first year of the pandemic. Maladaptive emotion regulation partially accounted for age-related variance in negative affect (β=−0.013, p=.020); whereby younger age was associated with more frequent use of maladaptive emotion regulation strategies which, in turn, was associated with more negative affect at our third assessment point. More frequent use of adaptive emotion regulation strategies, and in turn, changes in negative affect from our first to our third assessment, partially accounted for age-related variance in mental health problems (β=0.007, p=.023). Conclusion: Our findings add to the growing literature demonstrating the vulnerability of younger people during the COVID-19 pandemic, and suggest that emotion regulation may be a promising target for intervention. Reducing the use of maladaptive and increasing the use of adaptive emotion regulation strategies in younger people may lead to improvements in negative affect, and in turn, mental health.

Introduction: Many people are currently interested in improving and maintaining their health status by changing their dietary habits, like eating more natural foods; thus sprout products are becoming increasingly popular. In this context, sprouted brown rice grains are an excellent example of functional food, because besides their nutritive value, they also lower the risk of various diseases and/or exert healthpromoting effects. In this paper, we focused on the bioactive compound γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in germinated brown rice. GABA is known as an important amino acid that can help reduce hypertension and inhibit cancer cells development. Methods: We investigated the hydration characteristics of brown rice by drying them in a moisture analyser at 130°C until reaching a constant weight. The effects of soaking (duration and pH of soaking solution), as well as incubation conditions (temperature and time) on GABA biosynthesis in MangBuk brown rice of Vietnam were measured. Quantification of GABA was measured using a spectrophotometer. Results: GABA content in MangBuk type 1 brown rice was higher than in type 2. GABA content reached its highest value at 691.88 µg/g for type 1 rice and 596.48 µg/g for type 2 rice when MangBuk brown rice was soaked in a pH 7 water at 30°C for 12 hours, and then incubated at 35°C for 30 hours in aerobic condition. Conclusion: Germination conditions modified the content of biologically active compounds in MangBuk soft and hard rice varieties. GABA was synthesised during germination based on three factors, namely time of incubation, temperature of incubation, and pH of solution.
Curating Climate (In)Action: Strategic News-Sharing in Canadian Civil Society
Authors: Gunster Shane
Published: October 2022

Background: Canadian civil society organizations engage in strategic news-sharing to shape engagement with climate change, generating audience subsidies for news outlets.

Analysis: This study analyzes the actors involved in such news sharing on Facebook and the engagement they generate for news genres, outlets, and authors. It maps the networks through which those favouring stronger climate action and those delaying such action subsidize different venues for climate journalism.

Conclusions and Implications: Anti-climate action actor subsidies are con­centrated and amplify a small number of ideologically conservative voices and media outlets. Pro-climate action actor subsidies are smaller, widely dispersed and overlap with engagement generated by large news organizations.
Hepatosplenic mucormycosis due to Rhizomucor pusillus identified by panfungal PCR/sequencing of ribosomal ITS2 and LSU regions in a patient with acute myelogenous leukemia: A case report
Authors: Gillrie Mark , Chow Barbara , Griener Thomas , Johnson Andrew , Church Deirdre
Published: October 2022

Background:

Angioinvasive Rhizomucor pusillus infection with dissemination to the liver and spleen is exceedingly uncommon, representing less than 1% of reported cases of mucormycosis.

Methods:

Diagnosis of mucormycosis is often difficult using conventional methods that rely on broad-based non-septate hyphae present on histologic examination and morphological identification of the cultured organism. Our laboratory also uses an in-house panfungal molecular assay to rapidly diagnose invasive fungal infection when conventional methods do not provide definitive results.

Results:

Herein we present a case of disseminated mucormycosis with hepatosplenic involvement in a 49-year-old female with acute myelogenous leukemia following induction chemotherapy. But in this case repeated tissue biopsy cultures were negative. R. pusillus infection was diagnosed using an in-house panfungal PCR/sequencing assay based on dual priming oligonucleotide primers.

Conclusions:

New molecular assays facilitate prompt diagnosis of invasive fungal infections.
Keeping 1.5°C Alive in the Global South: Life or Death
Authors: Vargas Pamela Escobar
Published: October 2022

This commentary by a youth leader from Mexico discusses the impacts of the current economic system (neoliberal capitalism) on the social and environmental conditions of the planet. It reflects on the finite resources of the planet and explores why keeping the 1.5ºC goal of the Paris Agreement alive is a matter of life or death in the Global South. The countries of the Global South are the most exposed to natural disasters, have the least capacity to adapt, and have the most difficulty recovering from losses.
Correcting Fallacies about Validity as the Most Fundamental Concept in Educational and Psychological Measurement
Authors: BADEMCİ Vahit
Published: October 2022

Validity is the most fundamental cerebration in educational and psychological testing. That is to say, validity is a crucial concept in psychometrics, but it is still misunderstood and misused. Validity has changed in the last 100 years, in other words, evolved. Validity is the degree to which evidence and theory support the adequacy and appropriateness of the proposed interpretations and uses of the scores obtained from the test or measurement instrument applied to a particular population or sample. In short, validity is not a property of a test or measurement instrument itself, but it is a property of the proposed interpretations and uses of the scores. Thus, such statements as ‘the test is valid’, ‘the validity of scale’ or ‘the scores are valid’ should not be used. The most authoritative source regarding the development and evaluation of educational and psychological tests is published by name of the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing and briefly referred to as the Standards. The view of content validity, criterion-related validity and construct validity supported in 1966 Standards was quitted in 1999 Standards.

Published: October 2022

The article is devoted to the study of some psychosocial and psychoemotional aspects of medical students and their parents and relatives living together. The work is relevant, as the pandemic of the new coronovirus infection COVID-19 is currently ongoing in Russia and in the world. The study is also interesting in that despite a number of works by various authors – scientists and teachers of higher education studying aspects of the psychoemotional state of students, very few works are devoted to their relationship and the dynamics of these relationships with their loved ones – parents and relatives, especially against the backdrop of a pandemic of a new viral infection., which was the aim of this study. The objects of the study were 359 people. The 1st and 2nd groups included 100 students, men and women, of the medical faculty of VSMU. N.N. Burdenko (5 course); Group 3 consisted of 159 people, men and women, who were related to representatives of group 2 and lived together with them. The study was based on an anonymous questionnaire specially developed by the authors, aimed at studying the gender and age composition of the respondents, identifying the main psychosocial and psychoemotional interactions of the objects of study, including determining the conditions of their residence and determining the circle of persons living with them; determining the main aspects of their interpersonal relationships, including their «warmth» and the frequency of quarrels and omissions; determination of susceptibility to stress in the objects of study, the severity of anxiety in certain periods of life and the possible presence of true depressive or depressive-like states in them. The data obtained are of particular interest not only for scientists and researchers involved in sociology and psychology, but also for higher education teachers involved in the educational process of medical universities.

Pulmonary Thrombosis in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: Theory, Evidence, and Clinical Relevance to Resource-Limited Settings
Authors: Greeff Nicole , Greeff Nicole , Davids Ryan A.
Published: October 2022

Thrombosis is often seen in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients, increasing morbidity and mortality. This review highlights the pathophysiology of ARDS and how it links to pulmonary thrombosis. Understanding this link is furthermore critical as pulmonary thrombosis a serious issue in coronavirus diseases, such as COVID-19. There is a clear link between ARDS pathophysiology and pulmonary thrombosis as defined by the “two-path unifying theory” and “two-activation theory of the endothelium”. Interestingly, ARDS in influenza versus COVID-19 patients have a slightly different pathophysiology, the latter having more compact fibrin clots that are more difficult to dissolve; this will impact the treatment of COVID-19 ARDS patients. We therefore also reviewed the current treatment options, underlining that potentially life-saving thrombosis-screening procedures could be lacking in resource-limited settings, therefore needing redress.

Higher order elastic constants were calculated of the intermetallic GdFeAl ternary compound using Lennard Jones potential approach. With the using of second order elastic constants (SOECs), other elastic moduli; shear modulus, bulk modulus, Young’s modulus, Pugh’s ratio, constants of elastic stiffness and Poisson’s ratio are estimated for mechanical and elastic characterization at room temperature. Born stability and Pugh's criteria are used to examine the nature and strength of the intermetallic ternary compound and found that it is mechanically stable compound. For the investigation of anisotropic behaviour and thermophysical properties, ultrasonic velocities and thermal relaxation time have been also calculated along with different orientations from theunique axis of the crystal. The temperature variation of ultrasonic velocities, Debye average velocity and thermal relaxation time along the z axis is evaluated using SOECs. The ultrasonic properties correlated with elastic, thermal and mechanical properties which is temperature dependent is also discussed. Ultrasonic attenuation was calculated at different temperatures due to phonon –phonon (p –p) interactions. The responsible reason of attenuation is p-p interactions; it was got that the thermal conductivity is a core contributor to the characteristic of ultrasonic attenuation as a role of temperature.GdFeAl ternary compound behave as its purest form at lower temperature and are more ductile demonstrated by the minimum attenuation

The two-neutron Halo of 19-Boronhas been investigated within this work. This investigation used the Microscopic Cluster Model (MCM). The main properties of Halo nuclei such as binding energy, radius, and deformation of the core have been calculated in this study.The 19B has been defined in the shape of core-n-n. The 17B is the core of the system. The feature of the three-body system depended on a structure and a deformation of the core. The core of 17B hasn't been considered as an inert core but has some degree of freedom. This degree has a high influence on the structure of a three-body system. So we used the Microscopic Cluster Model (MCM).The main aim of this study is to expand using cluster model in a new version which is Microscopic Cluster Model
METAL-INSULATOR TRANSITIONS IN DOPED La-BASED SUPER CONDUCTORS WITH SMALL-RADIUS DOPANTS
Authors:   Institute of Nuclear Physics, Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences, Tashkent, Uzbekistan, Dzhumanov S.
Published: October 2022

n this work, we study the possibility of realizing two distinct mechanisms of metal-insulator transitions in hole-doped cuprates induced by the localization of charge carriers near the small-radius impurities and in a deformable lattice (i.e. in the absence of impurities). The purpose of this research is to determine the criteria (i.e. conditions) for the existence of the localized states of hole carriers and solve the problem of metal-insulator transitions in La-based cuprates. The advantage of La-based cuprate versus other types of cuprates is that two distinct metal-insulator transitions in La-based cuprates driven by the strong carrier-impurity-phonon and carrier-phonon interactions occur simultaneously in a wider doping range from the lightly doped to heavily doping regime. We show that at very low doping, the separate levels of hole carriers localized near impurities and in a deformable lattice are formed in the charge-transfer gap of the cuprates. As the doping level increases towards underdoped region, the energy levels of such charge carriers start to form energy bands which gradually broaden with increasing doping. We propose a new two-carrier cuprate superconductor model for studying two distinct metal-insulator transitions occurring simultaneouslyin hole-doped La-based cuprate compounds. We demonstrate that when hole carriers reside in impurity and polaron bands, these metal-insulator transitions in La-based superconductors with small-radius dopants occur accordingly in a wide doping range and relatively lower doping levels.
