Paradoxos: Zenão de Eléia e os processos de compreensão da inteligibilidade
Authors: Tssara Eda Terezinha de Oliveira , Morais Lafayette De , Abbud Neusa
Published: August 2018

No exercício da racionalidade, parte-se do pressuposto de  que ela se constitui como uma das formas do pensar por meio de uma necessidade lógica traduzida por estruturas matemáticas,  que sustentam os processos axiomáticos (Moraes 2016;Tassara, 2003), manifestando-se em uma direção trans-historicizada.   Para se cumprir tal propósito, buscou-se a origem grega da crítica do método, direcionando-nos para os estudos sobre Zenão de Eleia, tentando desvelar possíveis raízes da racionalidade, tanto aplicadas ao estudo do movimento como às necessidades lógicas interpostas para fundamentar a demonstração. Contudo, Zenão estudou o movimento e não o repouso, por quê? Até o presente momento, não existe estudo para responder a essa questão. A saber o problema de Zenão, era trabalhar a compreensão sobre a realidade  porém não houve elementos de busca na determinação dessa temática,  não conseguindo dessa forma o exercício no campo da demonstração. Com efeito, limitou-se à elaboração de argumentos, considerando-se a prova pelo absurdo, como referente de uma capacidade analítica que permaneceu intacta no percurso histórico, a ser retomada pelos matemáticos, no século XIX.

Sebagai negara yang merdeka dengan ekonomi terpusat, menjadikan Suriah sebagai negara yang patut dicontoh oleh negara di dunia. Terbukti bahwa tanpa neoliberalisme dan dominasi ekonomi Barat, Suriah mampu meningkatkan kondisai hidup dan berkembang secara mandiri. Sistem politik Suriah tentu membutuhkan reformasi dan modernisasi. Namun, konflik internal antara pemerintah dengan kelompok oposisi yang telah berkecamuk selama enam tahun ini, semakin rumit karena kekisruhan bukan hanya terkait revolusi, demokrasi dan modernisasi seperti yang diinginkan oleh rakyat Suriah, tetapi ketidaksukaan negara Barat dan Teluk terhadap rezim Assad. Mereka ingin menggulingkannya telah membawa Suriah ke dalam kehancuran yang sangat parah. Pada setiap konflik yang paling merasakan dampaknya adalah masyarakat sipil, tidak sedikit masyarakat sipil yang telah menjadi korban dari pertempuran.

Authors: Lipatnikov V. S. , Kirsanova K. A.
Published: August 2018

The relevance of the chosen topic is connected to the fact that in the conditions of value-based management, market capitalization acts as a key indicator of the company efficiency. At the present time, when the Russian oil and gas industry has become the object of international sectoral sanctions, the identification of the impact of these sanctions on the domestic oil and gas companies’ value is of great practical importance. The article considers the cost of oil and gas companies and the impact of sectoral sanctions and negative dynamics of oil prices. The study was conducted using econometric modeling tools. For analysis 4 of the oil company with the largest market share, namely PJSC “Rosneft Oil Company”, PJSC “LUKOIL”, JSC “Gazprom Neft” and PJSC “Tatneft”, which in the aggregate represent 62% of the entire Russian oil industry, were selected. The features of valuation of Russian oil and gas companies are covered. The sanctions in the oil and gas industry of the Russian Federation are considered, the consequences of their introduction and the fall of the world oil price are analysed. The analysis to determine the impact of the cost of oil and gas companies from international sanctions and oil prices. It was found that in the oil industry market capitalization depends directly on the price of oil, and in the gas industry this impact is absent. It was discovered that due to the low level of oil prices, the sanctions did not have a significant influence on the cost of oil and gas companies.
On the Impact of State Anti-inflation Policy on the Level of Poverty in Russia and Other Countries
Authors: Goreeva N.  M. , Demidova L.  N. , Chernyaev S.  I.
Published: August 2018

The article deals with nominal and real inflation, both in the whole country and in various sectors of Russia, including individual product groups, and identifies the main trends of inflation processes. The authors made an attempt to assess the impact of anti-inflationary measures taken in different countries on the level of social stratification of the population using nonparametric criteria. The results of the study clearly demonstrate that the use of monetary policy measures to control inflation in different countries does not reduce the proportion of the population with incomes below the subsistence level. Economic factors are not the only drivers of the human capital development and the rise of living standards. Therefore, institutional reforms must have not only a general economic effect but also the effect of social utility. The aim of the study is to identify and quantify the impact of inflation policies on human development in developed and developing countries. To achieve this goal, the work has set and solved the following tasks: real and nominal inflation rates in Russia as a whole for the past 6 years have been assessed; consumer inflation rates for individual commodity groups have been estimated; the use of nonparametric methods of assessing the impact of anti — inflationary policies on the proportion of the population with incomes below the subsistence level has been proposed and tested. The methodological basis of this article comprises economic and statistical methods of analysis, including the use of nonparametric methods and criteria for assessing non-quantitative indicators in small samples, methods of generalizing indicators, and comparison methods. The work analyzes the relationship between the GDP deflator index and the poverty level using the 2 χ -test, Chuprov coefficient and Wolfe criterion with the amendment of Yates. With the use of nonparametric estimates it was established that at present, the main levers of the state policy should be directed not so much at the economic efficiency but at the development of the potential of each participant in the economy. Nonparametric methodology sufficiently allows us to evaluate the hypothesis of homogeneity and the assertion of independence of the applied anti-inflationary measures for solving social problems facing any state.

Authors: Idrus Yudi Avalon , Achsani Noer Azam , Hardiyanto Arief Tri
Published: August 2018

BPK audit report on a government financial report contains an opinion that is a professional statement of the auditor regarding the fairness of financial information presented in the financial statement. In forming opinion, a BPK auditor uses four criteria, namely the application of Government Accounting Standard, adequate disclosures, compliance of laws and regulations, and effectiveness of internal control systems. The unqualified opinion is issued to a financial report with no material statements and/or fraud.Â  However, it is widely reported that many irregularities still occur across government entities and cost the stateâ€™s resources (finance). This study aims to analyze corruption committed by heads of local governments and its influence on BPK opinion build a model which shows the relationship between them. This study uses a model called ordinal logistic regression and found that there is a correlation between BPK opinion with corruption committed by heads of local governments. The best ordinal logistic regression model shows that BPK opinion is dominantly influenced by the compliance of government financial report with Government Accounting Standard, compliance with law and regulations and effectiveness of internal control systems.

Published: August 2018

Background: Periodontitis have a bidirectional relationship with diabetes mellitus, both can increase oxidative stress that trigger an increase of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α. Sea cucumbers have anti-inflammatory component that act to inhibit the release of inflammatory mediators. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy reduce oxidative stress. Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the sea cucumber powder and hyperbaric oxygen therapy on the expression of TNF-α in rats with diabetes mellitus induced by P.gingivalis bacteria. Materials and Methods: The study was an experimental laboratories research with factorial design. Twenty wistar rats were divided into 5 groups. K0 negative control, K1 positive control. K1-K4 groups were induced with streptozotocin for diabetes condition and P.gingivalis bacteria for periodontitis condition. K2 group was treated with sea cucumber 3% for 7 days, K3 with OHB 2.4 ATA 3 x 30’ interval 5’ for 7 days, and K4 group was treated with combination of sea cucumber and OHB. At the 51st day all rats were sacrified, then the expression of TNF-α on periodontal macrophages were examined by immunohistochemistry stain. Data were analized by Kruskal Wallis followed by Mann-whitney. Result: Expression of TNF-α were increased in K1 (11.50±1.291) compare K0 (p<0.05). Sea cucumber treatment, OHB, and combination treatment decreased expression of TNF-α significantly in amount of 2.50±0.577 (K2), 8.25±2.217 (K3), 3.00±0.816 (K4). Conclusion: Sea cucumber powder and OHB therapy affected the expression of TNF-α in rats with diabetes mellitus induced by P. gingivalis bacteria.

Meta-Analytical SEM: Equivalence Between Maximum Likelihood and Generalized Least Squares
Authors: Yuan Ke-Hai , Kano Yutaka
Published: August 2018

Meta-analysis plays a key role in combining studies to obtain more reliable results. In social, behavioral, and health sciences, measurement units are typically not well defined. More meaningful results can be obtained by standardizing the variables and via the analysis of the correlation matrix. Structural equation modeling (SEM) with the combined correlations, called meta-analytical SEM (MASEM), is a powerful tool for examining the relationship among latent constructs as well as those between the latent constructs and the manifest variables. Three classes of methods have been proposed for MASEM: (1) generalized least squares (GLS) in combining correlations and in estimating the structural model, (2) normal-distribution-based maximum likelihood (ML) in combining the correlations and then GLS in estimating the structural model (ML-GLS), and (3) ML in combining correlations and in estimating the structural model (ML). The current article shows that these three methods are equivalent. In particular, (a) the GLS method for combining correlation matrices in meta-analysis is asymptotically equivalent to ML, (b) the three methods (GLS, ML-GLS, ML) for MASEM with correlation matrices are asymptotically equivalent, (c) they also perform equally well empirically, and (d) the GLS method for SEM with the sample correlation matrix in a single study is asymptotically equivalent to ML, which has being discussed extensively in the SEM literature regarding whether the analysis of a correlation matrix yields consistent standard errors and asymptotically valid test statistics. The results and analysis suggest that a sample-size weighted GLS method is preferred for combining correlations and for MASEM.
Friendship and Implicit Preferences for Whites over Blacks
Authors: Aberson Chris
Published: August 2018

The present study examines relationships between self-reported friendships with Blacks and implicit preferences for Whites over Blacks. There is considerable evidence that friendships relates to more favorable attitudes toward outgroups, however, the bulk of this evidence comes from explicit self-report measures. Using a sample of 123,445 participants that completed a Black-White IAT on the Project Implicit website, results indicate the those participants reporting either childhood or post-childhood friendships with Blacks demonstrated weaker preferences for Whites over Blacks on the IAT. The size of this relationship was substantially smaller than found for an explicit evaluation of Blacks. Findings suggestion that outgroup friendships relate to reduced implicit preferences but that the relationship is weaker than those typically found for friendship-explicitly stated attitude relationships.

Authors: Barroso Almudena Serrano
Published: August 2018

Objective: The aim of the present study is to identify attentional biomarkers by using BCI technology of the Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) associated with several pejorative outcomes that are difficult to detect using only behavioral testing. We investigated whether Attention measures using a BCI application game in combination with a neuropsychological test can help to discriminate between participants attending to developmental differences on attentional skills.Materials and Methods: The GokEvolution application game was designed to train and improve attention and to provide an additional measure to identify attentional problems in children. Attention and Meditation changes registered with NeuroSky Mindwave in combination with the CARAS-R psychological test were used to identify attentional skills and impulsivity in 52 non-ADHD and 23 ADHD children from 6 to 12 years old.Results: The analyses revealed the usefulness of GokEvolution, when considering the measure of Attention. The ADHD group showed lower levels of Attention and more variability in brain responses when compared to the control group. In the ADHD group we found a strong significant negative correlation between attention at the last level of the game. Likewise, a negative correlation with impulsivity was found.Conclusion: Our results suggest that the system was able to map the low attention profile of the ADHD group when compared to control group and that it holds potential to be used in clinical settings as a screening tool previous to diagnostic.

Authors: MAMONDOL MARIANNE REYNELDA
Published: August 2018

The purpose of this study is to examine the input efficiency of rice field farming at Tendedongi Village North Pamona District in terms of technical, allocative, and economical aspects. Inputs which assumed influence rice production significantly are seed, fertilizer, and herbicide. Technical efficiency is analyzed through regression coefficient obtained by Cobb-Douglas production function modelling. Allocative or price efficiency is determined by Marginal Product Value (MPV) and Input Price (IP) ratio. Multiplication sum between technical and price efficiency constitutes economical efficiency from inputs which are used in production process. Study result demonstrates that technically, the seed applying by farmers is not efficient yet, whereas the applying of fertilizer has reached efficiency. The application of herbicide is not efficient, excessive, and its addition will reduce rice production. Price efficiency shows that variables of seed and fertilizer have not achieved efficient using and can still be enhanced to increase output and farmers’ profit, otherwise herbicide variable indicates an inefficient using. In terms of economical efficiency, seed and fertilizer usings are not efficient yet as well, while herbicide using may cause inefficiency on rice production. It may be concluded that farmers need knowledge regarding good input management in terms of quantity and time for application so that farm efficiency may be achieved.

The process of formation of communities in the Balta Consolidated Territorial Community was explored on the basis of the criteria specified in the Methodology for the formation of capable territorial communities: modeling of the capable territorial communities of the Balta Region; sustainability of administrative functions by certain settlements and analysis of infrastructure provision; researching of the areas of influence of settlements (first of all labour and other connections of population with a certain settlement); highliging of cultural and geographical similarities, territorial differences in conditions and living standards; analysis of existing administrative boundaries, etc. Summarizing the research of the preconditions and factors that were the basis for the creation of the Balta Consolidated Territorial Community, the author concluded: in the past the institutions of local self-government within the Balta Region were unable to effectively resolve their powers due to their demographic, territorial, material and financial inability; the creation of the Balta Territorial Community was a consolidation of economic and financial opportunities for solving the problems of economic and social development, attracting the investments, providing the high quality services to community members, creating new jobs; the Balta Territorial Community according to its indicators may be a model community for Ukraine that makes it possible to use the experience in other communities which are being voluntarily consolidated.
Basis of the general theory of pathology (Part 2. Pathogenesis of chronic diseases)
Authors: Prokopchook V. S. , Lyckbäck A.V.
Published: August 2018

The authors believe that, despite of the endless variety of pathology, there is a single stereotyped pathogenetic mechanism for all chronic diseases. This mechanism doesn't dependent on a cause of an illness. If unnumbered etiological factors have a direct link to a damage of a certain number of cells (structures) of the target organ, then a disease, as a reaction to this damage, aims to restore the structure and function of the damaged organ. However a new pathogenetic mechanism arises in the course of a disease. This mechanism is based on energy deficiency. It arises due to violations of biorhythms of a remaining tissue. The violations of biorhythms in their turn are based on deviations from the law of «optimal construction». This mechanism destroys the remaining tissue that haven't been damaged by etiological factors. A "separation" of a disease from an etiologic factor occurs. A disease continues its course even without external damaging factors. Consequently a treatment of chronic diseases requires a fundamentally different approach than etiotropic therapy. Until now only an empirically obtained experience of non-specific treatment has been used. Therefore all existing therapy requires a fundamental revision.

Published: August 2018

This publication is devoted to the problem of occurrence of acute cerebral circulatory disorder (STROKE) in operated patients as the most severe type of cerebral dysfunction that increases mortality and leads to patients’ disability, aggravating results of cardiosurgery treatment. The aim of our work was to determine the frequency, types, predictors of the risk of STROKE after coronary artery bypass grafting. The study included 844 patients who were operated in the National Amosov Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery of NAMS of Ukraine, Kyiv. Findings and conclusions. The incidence of acute disorders of cerebral circulation in the early postoperative period was 1.4 % (n = 12). In the structure of all strokes the STROKE of ischemic type were recorded at 83.3 % (n = 10) and that was the most frequent type of acute cerebral circulatory disorder (ACCD) in the early postoperative period. The most important risk factors for STROKE in the early postoperative period are: radionecrosis of the carotid arteries > 50 %, aortic atherosclerosis, atrial fibrillation in postoperative period, performing operations under extracorporeal circulation. All patients at high risk of the emergence of ACCD require careful assessment of the state of the aorta and carotid vessels before operation, improvement of surgical technique and the postoperative period according to the corresponding risk factors identified.

The aim of this study was to study the clinical efficacy and safety of the preparation of meldonium Vazonat® as part of the complex therapy of patients with stage II hypertension with comorbid non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. There were 72 patients under examined, the average age was (48.4 ± 1.8) years. Depending on the composition of the combined therapy, patients were separated into 2 groups: the main (38 patients) and comparisons (34 patients). Patients of the main group to the basic therapy, which consisted of modern antihypertensive drugs and statins, were supplemented with meldonium Vasonate preparation 1 capsule (250 mg) 2 times a day for 2 months. Patient comparison groups received only basic therapy. All the examinations were conducted before the appointment of therapy and after 2 months. The study showed that the appointment of complex therapy with the addition of the drug of meldonium Vasonate® not only promotes normalization of the level and daily profile of arterial pressure, a decrease in its variability and recovery of the vasomotor function of the endothelium, but also positively affects most of the indices of lipid, carbohydrate and fat metabolism, can to a certain extent inhibit the development of further metabolic disorders and reduce cardiovascular risk. Due to the complex action on various links and general mechanisms of the pathogenesis of arterial hypertension and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, the use of meldonium Vazonat® allows optimizing the standart basic therapy, restoring the metabolic status, accompanied by good tolerance, improvement in the well-being, activity and mood of patients.

Authors: Kuryata O. V. , Frolova Ye. O.
Published: August 2018

The aim – to assess the efficacy and safety of combination treatment using the infusion form of L-carnitine (Metacartin) in patients with chronic renal failure. The study included 32 patients with CKD stage III (14 men, 18 women) aged 21 to 62 years with a glomerular filtration rate of 59–30 ml/(min · 1.73 m2) after receiving their informed consent. The quality of life of patients with CKD stage III was significantly reduced, especially due to the indicators of the physical component of health: general health and body pain. From indicators of the psychological component of health in patients with CKD stage III, the lowest level is set for vital activity. Inclusion to standard treatment of L-carnitine has led to a significant decrease in serum creatinine levels and increased GFR and improvement of GH and mental health in patients with CKD stage III.

Background: Age is a major risk factor in developing heart diseases and has been associated with profound transcriptional changes in mammalian tissues. Low tissue selenium has recently been linked to several age-related diseases, including cardiovascular disease. This study investigated the global effects of age and dietary supplementation of selenium on heart transcriptional profiles in POLG mutator mice.Methods: Heart transcription profiles from young (2-month-old) and old (13-month-old) animals fed either a control diet or a diet supplemented with 1.0 mg selenium from selenium-enriched yeast (SP)/kg diet were obtained and validated using microarray and real-time RT-PCR techniques.Results: Aging led to significant transcriptional changes, where the expression of 1942 genes in old animals was changed by a fold change larger than 2.0, when compared to young animals. Age-regulated genes are associated with cardiovascular system development, immune and inflammatory response, and cellular oxidative stress response. Multiple genes linked with cardiomyocyte apoptosis, hypertrophy, and cardiac fibrosis, such as Myh7, Lcn2, Spp1, and Serpine1, were significantly up-regulated in old animals. SP supplementation also caused significant transcriptional changes in the heart, especially in old mice where many age-dependent transcriptional changes were totally or partially reversed by SP. Upstream regulator analysis further indicated that genes for Foxo1 and Foxo3, two transcriptional regulators involved in the regulation of cardiac muscle remodeling, were significantly activated by SP, suggesting that Foxo-mediated transcriptional activities play important roles in the anti-aging properties of SP.Conclusions: Results of this study indicate that SP supplementation attenuated age-related transcriptional changes in the heart of old POLG mice, which implies a potential clinical application of dietary selenium in preventing decline of cardiac function in old animals.  Key words: Aging, heart, gene expression, selenium
