Corpus linguistics is a newly emerging field of study in applied linguistics that deals with construction, processing, and exploitation of text corpora. To date, a high-quality analysis of vast amounts of empirical language data provided by computerized corpora is impossible without computer technologies and relevant statistical methods. Therefore, teaching future philologists to effectively apply statistical computer programs is an important stage in their research training. The article discusses the possibilities of using one of the leading in Western linguistics, but not well-known in Ukraine, software packages for statistical data analysis – R statistical software environment – in the research by future philologists. The paper reveals the advantages and disadvantages of this program in comparison with other similar software packages (SPSS and Statistica) and provides Internet links to R self-learn tutorials. The flexibility and efficacy of R for linguistic research are demonstrated on the example of a statistical analysis of the use of hedges in the corpus of academic speech. For novice philologists to properly understand the peculiarities of conducting a statistical linguistic experiment with R, a detailed description of each stage of the study is provided. The statistical verification of hedges in the speech of students and lecturers was carried out using such statistical methods as the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test and the Mann-Whitney U Test. The article presents the developed algorithms to calculate the specified tests applying the built-in commands and various specialized library functions, created by R user community to enhance the functionality of this statistical software. Each script for statistical calculations in R is accompanied by a detailed description and interpretation of the results obtained. Further study of the issue will involve a number of activities aimed at raising awareness and improving skills of future philologists in using R statistical software, which is important for their professional development as researchers.

The most critical global security threats in the information sphere are analyzed in the article, and, as a result, it was made a conclusion about the increasing of information confrontation and infiltration of tension in relations between countries. This situation requires a new qualitative approach to IT specialists’ training, focusing their attention primarily on the practical plane in the field of information and cyber security, and taking into account the most relevant expertise that a future specialist should receive in the field of cyber security. To solve this problem, the most important priority areas for the training of such specialists are identified in the article. According to the results of the analysis of Ukrainian legislation in the field of information and cyber security, as well as the typical cyber security plan of the NATO, examples of models of training competencies for the national cyber security system are proposed in the article. Considering that the main subjects of the national system of cyber security in accordance with the Constitution and laws of Ukraine are the State Service for Special Communications and Information Protection of Ukraine, the National Police of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine, the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine and the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, intelligence agencies and the National Bank of Ukraine, the models of professional competences of the employees/personnel of these organizations training, agreed with the tasks entrusted to these structures, are proposed in the article. As a result, the proposed models of professional competences may be the basis for the development / improvement of educational programs and curricula for training specialists in the field of cyber security, especially at the first, Bachelor’s level of higher education, and may become the basis for adjusting the relevant standard agreed in 2017 by the national Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education. In the future, the creation of new standards for cyber-security, both in the second (master's) and in the third (educational-scientific) levels will be promoted.
FOUR-DIMENSIONAL BIOPRINTING FOR REGENERATIVE MEDICINE: MECHANISMS TO INDUCE SHAPE VARIATION AND POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
Authors: Morouço Pedro
Published: February 2019

Regenerative medicine is an exciting field of research, in which significant steps are being taken that are leading to the translation of the technique into clinical practice. In the near future, it is expected that clinicians will have the opportunity to bioprint tissues and organs that closely mimic native human tissues. To do so, imaging of patients must be translated to digital models and then fabricated in a layer-by-layer fashion. The main aim of this review is to elaborate on the possible mechanisms that support four-dimensional bioprinting, as well as provide examples of current and future applications of the technology. This technology, considering time as the fourth dimension, emerged with the aim to develop bioactive functional constructs with programmed stimuli responses. The main idea is to have three-dimensional-printed constructs that are responsive to preplanned stimuli. With this review, the authors aim to provoke creative thinking, highlighting several issues that need to be addressed when reproducing such a complex network as the human body. The authors envision that there are some key features that need to be studied in the near future: printed constructs should be able to respond to different types of stimuli in a timely manner, bioreactors must be developed combining different types of automated stimuli and aiming to replicate the in vivo ecology, and adequate testing procedures must be developed to obtain a proper assessment of the constructs. The effective development of a printed construct that supports tissue maturation according to the anticipated stimuli will significantly advance this promising approach to regenerative medicine.

Large-scale Magnetic Funnels in the Solar Corona
Authors: Panasenco Olga , Velli Marco , Panasenco Aram
Published: February 2019

We describe open coronal magnetic fields with a specific geometry—large-scale coronal magnetic funnels—that are found to play an important role in coronal dynamics. Coronal magnetic funnels can be attributed to three main factors: (i) the presence of pseudostreamer(s), (ii) the presence of filament channels, and (iii) the presence of active regions in the close vicinity of a pseudostreamer. The geometry of magnetic funnels displays a strongly nonmonotonic expansion below 2 R
⊙. We present a detailed study of a funnel arising from a double pseudostreamer near the equator, formed between a triplet of coronal holes of the same polarity. By following the evolution of these coronal holes we find that the pseudostreamer and, therefore, funnel topology, changes when two coronal holes have merged together. The funnel geometry of the open magnetic field becomes smoother, with a monotonic expansion factor, after this merging. The presence of magnetic funnels is indirectly confirmed by the appearance of coronal cloud prominences in the solar corona, typically in the 304 Å passband, as a result of colder plasma debris falling back toward the Sun in the wake of eruptions in the surrounding atmosphere. The coronal clouds appear suspended at heights of 1.2–1.3 R
⊙, coinciding with the region of strongest gradients in the magnetic field. By studying the evolution of funnel open magnetic fields over several solar rotations we find a direct relation between the presence of coronal clouds high in the solar corona and the coincident existence of funnel magnetic fields below them.

A corotating interaction region (CIR) develops between the solar wind streams with different bulk speeds emanating from distinct coronal sources. The arising pressure perturbations redistribute momentum between adjacent streams forming the regions of the compressed solar wind around the stream interface. We focus on properties of α-particles with respect to protons in CIRs using measurements of the Wind and Helios spacecraft. In the slow solar wind in front of CIRs, the relative helium abundance A
He is usually low (about 1%) and the α-proton differential drift, V

αp
is close to zero. In the high-speed stream behind CIRs, both of these characteristics are significantly higher. Inside CIRs, a large enhancement of A
He accompanied by a decrease in V

αp
is often observed in the compressed and slowed down fast solar wind close to the CIR leading edge. On the other hand, a depletion of A
He is sometimes present in the compressed and accelerated slow solar winds. We explain these observations in terms of magnetic mirroring of the multicomponent solar wind in a converging magnetic field that develops within CIRs.

We report an analysis of the first known β Cep pulsator observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission, the runaway star PHL 346 = HN Aqr. The star, previously known as a singly periodic pulsator, has at least 34 oscillation modes excited, 12 of those in the g-mode domain and 22 p modes. Analysis of archival data implies that the amplitude and frequency of the dominant mode and the stellar radial velocity were variable over time. A binary nature would be inconsistent with the inferred ejection velocity from the Galactic disk of 420 km s−1, which is too large to be survivable by a runaway binary system. A kinematic analysis of the star results in an age constraint (23 ± 1 Myr) that can be imposed on asteroseismic modeling and that can be used to remove degeneracies in the modeling process. Our attempts to match the excitation of the observed frequency spectrum resulted in pulsation models that were too young. Hence, asteroseismic studies of runaway pulsators can become vital not only in tracing the evolutionary history of such objects, but to understand the interior structure of massive stars in general. TESS is now opening up these stars for detailed asteroseismic investigation.

Introduction: Cystic Echinococcosis (CE) and toxocariasis caused by the larval stages of intestinal dog worms including Echinococcus granulosus and Toxocara spp. are among the most widespread zoonotic diseases.

Methodology: Four hundred municipal waste collectors were serologically evaluated for CE and toxocariasis. To identify the seropositive cases of CE, an ELISA test was performed using native AgB. Toxocara IgG detection was carried out using ELISA DRG kit (USA), and the seropositive cases were then examined by a Western blot kit (LDBIO, France) to confirm the positive ELISA results.

Results: 15 (3.7%) workers were seropositive for CE according to the ELISA. A significant relationship was observed between being seropositive and having contact with soil and dogs. No significant correlations were observed between education and the prevalence of these diseases. Of the 15 seropositive workers for CE, ten worked in district 5 of Ahvaz. Toxocara IgG was identified in 11 (2.7%) cases using the ELISA; however, none of them were confirmed by Western blotting.

Conclusion: The 3.7% rate of seroprevalence for CE in asymptomatic municipal waste collectors living in urban regions of Ahvaz suggests a high rate. The higher rate of infection among workers in district 5 is likely associated with the presence of stray and owned dogs in that area of the city. A prolonged exposure to contaminated soil, the lack of awareness about the risk of diseases that can be transmitted through waste and the lack of general availability of suitable personal protective equipment for waste collectors might cause infectious diseases.
Intraoperative rupture of tuberculous pseudoaneurysm associated with spinal tuberculosis: A case report and literature review
Authors: Tang Haijun , Liu Yun , Moro Abu , Xiao Zengming , Zhan Xinli
Published: February 2019

Introduction: The increase in the incidence of tuberculosis in developing countries has resulted in increased reporting on more related complications. We report the successful management of an intraoperative spontaneous rupture of a tuberculous pseudo aneurysm associated with spinal tuberculosis.
Methodology: We report the case of a 66 years old woman diagnosed with spinal tuberculosis of the T3/T4 vertebrae. During an anterior approach surgical reconstruction for the degenerative vertebrae, massive hemorrhage was observed after the removal of a portion of the prevertebral fascia of the affected vertebrae. This led to the exploration of the hilar fascia for the possibility of hilar hemorrhage, and when no hemorrhage was observed, aneurysm rupture was suspected. A portion of the hilar fascia was then sutured to the prevertebral fascia and the hemorrhage was partially controlled.
Results: On the 32nd month post-operative follow-up, the symptoms of chest and back pain had disappeared and the tuberculous lesion eradicated.
Conclusion: Presently, there are few reports on the successful treatment of intraoperative spontaneous rupture of tuberculous pseudoaneurysms. We therefore report on the successful management of such a case.
Permeation Data Analysis Considering a Nonzero Hydrogen Concentration on the Low Pressure Detector Side for a Purged Permeation Experiment

Published: February 2019

Currently available diffusion constant and Sieverts constant experimental results are based on time dependent permeation experiments. The common principle is an analysis which is expecting that the permeating hydrogen is “transported” from the retentate chamber to the permeate chamber through the connecting membrane, with a vanishing hydrogen partial pressure on the permeate side. But reality shows a different behaviour caused by the fact that a nonzero hydrogen partial pressure in the permeate chamber is necessary for detection purposes. This nonzero pressure is mostly not considered by analysis. This issue is solved (approximatively) numerically by the procedure as described in this paper. This work is rooted in the field of fusion research, where so called purge gas with low partial pressure of tritium is contacting the structural materials (300-550°C) of the fusion reactor (blanket) and of process equipment, where the tritium losses are of interest. The developed algorithms are intended for the evaluation of an experiment termed “Q-PETE” (Q for any hydrogen isotope, PEermeation Transport Experiment), which abstracts the hydrogen transport conditions of the fusion blanket, and where the effect of nonzero hydrogen concentration on the permeate side is relevant. The algorithms are useful for all experiments, where the ratio of hydrogen pressures between retentate and peremeate side are far from infinite.
