Introduction. The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) is a comorbidity scale used widely throughout the world. Despite its widespread use, its relationship with patient readmission to the Emergency departments (ED) has not been evaluated previously. Aim. To show whether there is a correlation between the CCI score and the number of repeated admissions to ED and that the CCI score can be used as a predicted factor for the serious patients. Material and methods. This was a prospective observational cross-sectional study. Age, gender, vital signs of the patients who agreed to participate in the study was recorded. Numbers of ED readmissions of patients within six months after discharge and CCI scores have been recorded. Results. The study was completed with 1420 patients. The admission rates of patients in the ED in the six months were significantly higher in the CCI 5+ group than in other groups (p<0.05) There was a positive correlation between the number of visits and CCI scores (p<0.01; C>0). Conclusion. We believe that the CCI scoring system can be used by ED clinicians to predict the risk of readmission of patients after discharge from ED.

Introduction. Leiomyosarcomas (LMS) originate from smooth muscle cells. They are very rare malignant neoplasms. Bony Leiomyosarcoma is a variant of spindle cell sarcoma, primarily affecting long bones, predominantly the distal femur and the proximal tibia followed by craniofacial skeleton. Aim. To describe clinical presentation and diagnostic approach of primary leiomyosarcoma of bones in two different patients. Description of the cases. Case 1. A 64-year-old male with a fracture of left distal femur after a fall was investigated and found to have a pathological fracture. An open biopsy of the fracture site confirms leiomyosarcoma. Case 2. A 58-year-old previously healthy female presented with a swelling on right side mandibular region. Orthopantomogram radiograph (OPG) of mandible and Cone beam CT (CBCT) mandible was taken initially and revealed a large area of bone destruction of the right side of the mandible associated with a soft tissue mass. Initial incisional biopsy made the diagnosis of spindle cell sarcoma followed by excisional biopsy, which confirms the diagnosis of moderately differentiated leiomyosarcoma. Conclusion. Primary leiomyosarcoma of bones is very rare. Imaging features are helpful in the evaluation of such conditions, but final diagnosis should be based on histopathologic and immunohistochemical features.

Abstract Objective: To analyze which factors may be associated with the quality-of-care transition of children with chronic diseases from the hospital to their home. Method: A cross-sectional, quantitative study, carried out in two hospitals in Southern Brazil, from February to September 2019. Participants included 167 family members of children with chronic disease. Data collection took place through a demographic questionnaire, and the use of the Brazilian version of the Care Transitions Measure (CTM-15). Results: The average score for the quality of care transition was 90.1 (sd = 19.5) (0–100). Factor 1, “Health management preparation”, was the one with the highest self-perceived average, 92.3 (sd = 11.6), while Factor 4, “Care plan”, had the lowest average, 86.3 (sd = 21.3). The quality of care transition was higher for patients living in municipalities belonging to health regions other than the hospital’s. Conclusion: The quality of care transition for children with chronic diseases, perceived by the children’s family members, in the discharge process from the hospital to home, was considered high. Living in a health region other than the hospital’s region was associated with better perception of the quality of care transition.

Published: April 2022

ABSTRACT Objective: To understand the main situations faced by community health agents in relation to children’s health in the light of permanent education actions. Method: This is a research of qualitative approach, which used the Arc of Maguerez. Ten community health agents from a Primary Health Care Unit participated in the study. The following steps were addressed: observation of reality; identification of key points, and theorization. The speeches were recorded, transcribed, and their textual content was processed in the IRAMUTEQ software, using the Descending Hierarchical Classification. Results: Five classes were formed, which composed three thematic blocks named as follows: child’s social vulnerability in the territory; handling the child’s health record, and vaccination schedule. Conclusion: Unveiling situations that influence the work of community health agents is essential for continuing education, as this favors assumptions applicable to daily work with resoluteness in child health.

Developing artificial learning systems that can understand and generate natural language has been one of the long-standing goals of artificial intelligence. Recent decades have witnessed an impressive progress on both of these problems, giving rise to a new family of approaches. Especially, the advances in deep learning over the past couple of years have led to neural approaches to natural language generation (NLG). These methods combine generative language learning techniques with neural-networks based frameworks. With a wide range of applications in natural language processing, neural NLG (NNLG) is a new and fast growing field of research. In this state-of-the-art report, we investigate the recent developments and applications of NNLG in its full extent from a multidimensional view, covering critical perspectives such as multimodality, multilinguality, controllability and learning strategies. We summarize the fundamental building blocks of NNLG approaches from these aspects and provide detailed reviews of commonly used preprocessing steps and basic neural architectures. This report also focuses on the seminal applications of these NNLG models such as machine translation, description generation, automatic speech recognition, abstractive summarization, text simplification, question answering and generation, and dialogue generation. Finally, we conclude with a thorough discussion of the described frameworks by pointing out some open research directions.

Objetivo. Explorar la relación entre la resiliencia organizacional y la evolución de dos mipymes colombianas del sector transporte y turismo a partir del contexto de crisis generado por la COVID-19 hasta la reapertura económica decretada por el gobierno nacional. Metodología. La metodología utilizada en este estudio sigue un enfoque cualitativo a partir de dos estudios de caso de corte transversal. Resultados. Los resultados obtenidos aportan una mayor comprensión sobre la relación entre los factores de la empresa que condicionan la resiliencia, las acciones de resiliencia implementadas y la evolución de la organización en un contexto de crisis. Conclusiones. La adaptación es un resultado inherente de las organizaciones resilientes, pero no la renovación de la empresa. La renovación en contextos críticos puede estar sujeta a las acciones de resiliencia implementadas por la empresa, los factores que condicionan la resiliencia, la magnitud de la crisis y a los recursos financieros y experiencias previas de la empresa para hacer frente a ella.

The standardization of restaurant data in public database for maximizing data utilization
Authors:   The Tourism Sciences Society Of Korea, Oh Munhyang (Moon)
Published: April 2022

The purpose of this study was to derive the optimal configuration of restaurant data fields as required by various stakeholders utilizing public data and to establish priorities among data items. To achieve the purpose of the research, the restaurant data hierarchy was established through literature research and in-depth interviews with an industry expert, and we conducted online surveys with 28 experts in the restaurant industry, academia, and government/public institutions. The main research questions in this study were: 1) what kind of restaurant data should be established first for food tourism service development and restaurant-quality control, and 2) whether there is a difference in the relative priorities of restaurant data items. The restaurant data in the public data derived from the analysis can be divided into five top concepts: “Basic Information”, “Operation and Reservation Information”, “Facilities and Tourism Information”, “Menu and Ambiance Information”, and “Service and Quality Information”, and 15 sub-concepts and 44 detailed items were derived. Industry respondents rated the relative importance of “Service and Quality Information” and “Facilities and Tourism Information” higher than the overall average, while academic respondents rated the relative importance of “Menu and Ambiance Information” and “Basic Information” higher than the overall average. Government and public institution respondents rated the relative importance of “Menu and Ambiance Information” and “Operation and Reservation Information” higher than the overall average.
The construction of split whiteness in the queer films Kanarie (2018) and Moffie (2019)
Authors: Andrews Grant
Published: April 2022

After the end of formal apartheid, a number of South African feature films have explored queer white men in conservative social settings, with a particular focus on Afrikaans-speaking gay men. These films have reflected strict heteropatriarchal values within white Afrikaner culture where homosexuality is still often seen as a taboo topic. In this article I discuss two feature films with gay white male protagonists, Kanarie (2018) by Christiaan Olwagen and Moffie (2019) by Oliver Hermanus. These films both feature young men conscripted to fight in the South African Border War in the 1980s, but differ greatly in terms of genre, plot, and style. I argue that, while many scholars discuss whiteness as a general construct that affords privilege, the films demonstrate a split whiteness that is effected through the composition of particular shots and scenes as well as through the films’ processes of production and reception. Whiteness is split into an invisibilised, assumedly critical perspective on the one hand, with transnational links to the Global North, and a hypervisibilised, reified, and criticised racial identity on the other hand, located specifically in the heteropatriarchal Afrikaner male. Queer characters in both films are able to split their identities and dissociate from uncomfortable parts of their whiteness, taking on an assumed criticality that highlights their own oppression and exclusion. The films thus dismiss the protagonists’ complicity in white supremacy, and allow audiences to dissociate from their own complicity in anti-black violence and oppression.
Confucius against Covid (Some Aspects of Chinese Experience in Dealing with a Pandemic)
Authors:   Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Novosibirsk, Komissarov Sergey ,   Novosibirsk State University, Russian Federation
Published: April 2022

From the end of 2019 to the present day, the world lives in a constant confrontation with the epidemic caused by coronavirus infection. The first country to experience COVID-19 attack was China. The data on the number of cases and deaths from this disease are tens, and sometimes hundreds of times less than in most developed countries, especially if we take into account the huge population of the PRC. During 2021, mortality caused by coronavirus remains practically zero, and the number of cases per day varies from a few persons to two dozen, and they always came from abroad. To achieve this, it required mobilization of all medical and administrative resources on the part of the authorities, as well as the observance of discipline and complete loyalty to the activities carried out on the part of the population. Many observers – journalists and then scientists – suggested that moral values articulated within the framework of Confucian ideology should be singled out among the factors that contributed to the establishment of control over the epidemic. Not all specialists agree with this approach. But it seems to us quite justified, since a similar picture can be observed in those countries of East and Southeast Asia, whose civilization was formed under the strong influence of Confucianism. Among the socio-cultural factors contributing to the successful fight against COVID-19 and its consequences, one can also name the active use of the methods of traditional Chinese medicine, especially Qigong and Taijiquan complexes. We suppose the Chinese experience in this sphere could be useful for other nations.
Shadow Campaigning in American Politics
Authors:   American Political Science Association, Somerville, USA, Zhezhko-Braun Irina
Published: April 2022

Participants in the shadow 2020 presidential campaign openly admitted to forming a secret conspiracy alliance against candidate Trump and funding actions that violate existing electoral laws. The author analyzes the term «shadow campaign«, as well as the real goals of the shadow campaign of 2020. The article shows that the Democratic Party is gradually losing significant segments of its social base and is taking extraordinary measures to win the support of new population groups, in particular «the new American majority«. A third political force, distinct from the two leading parties, has realized that the Democrats can win elections only by seizing control over the electoral process and reformatting their electorate. A third political force has assumed a mandate to correct the electoral system under the pretext of saving democracy. In the context of the epidemic, the shadow campaign of 2020 with money from private business has imposed new rules and methods of work in the election campaign with money from private capital. There was actually an act of privatization of elections by big business. The article analyzes, using the example of the state of Wisconsin, a number of actions of the shadow campaign that went beyond the framework of the current electoral laws. The Wisconsin case study shows that left-wing organizations have carried out a historically unprecedented takeover of county election commissions by activists from nominally non-partisan but overtly ideological organizations in key counties amid the chaos caused by the abrupt shift to absentee voting. The mechanism of the destructive influence of oligarchs and activists on the institution of elections in Wisconsin is described: the issuance of grants under the conditions of changing the rules of elections, party bias in the issuance of private grants, the weakening of the system of control over the quality of voting, the infiltration of election commissions by political activists, the admission to vote of persons who do not have the right to vote. The shadow campaign was operating to seize control over the elections, but this has nothing to do with saving democracy.
Chinese Epistemic Culture on the Example of Traditional Chinese Medicine
Authors:   Institute of Far Eastern Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Pushkarskaya Natalya
Published: April 2022

The article examines the main features of the epistemic culture of Ancient China and designates its place in the modern theory of knowledge. The author shows a close connection between the method of cognition and the holistic worldview expressed by the proto-categorical conceptual constructions yin - yang 阴阳 (two fundamental opposites), san cai 三才 (heaven - man - earth) and wu xing 五行 (five forces: water - fire - wood - metal - soil). The interrelation between the strategy of cognition and the general socio-cultural paradigm can be most clearly traced on the example of the phenomenon of traditional Chinese medicine. The treatise “Huangdi Neijing” “The Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor” («黄帝内经»), the earliest surviving text on ancient Chinese medicine, is used as the primary source. The content of this treatise is the origin of all medical theories and practices that exist in China. Referring to the text “Huangdi Neijing”, the author demonstrates the influence of basic classifications on the theoretical and methodological foundation of traditional Chinese medicine. The binary classification, represented by the interaction and interdependence of the two opposites yin and yang, is the basis of the main principle of treatment in Chinese medical practice; the treatment with the opposite. The trinary classification, the unity of heaven, earth and man is reflected in the idea of the three levels of the human body (upper, middle and lower). The quinary classification expands the field of interaction of the binary conceptual construction, involving the five internal organs wu zang 五脏, functioning within the framework of the general processes of mutual overcoming of xiang ke 相克 and mutual generation of xiang sheng 生生. Additionally, the article attempts to answer the question concerning the reason for the popularity of natural medicine in the modern world, and to identify the prospect of its use.

This article discusses the design of a system for collecting and predictive analysis of social media data. With the development of the Internet, as well as social media, it has become easier to access and distribute information because the network users themselves are both creators and recipients of varying information. The main type of social media is social networks. Facebook, VK, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, Odnoklassniki, WhatsApp and Telegram messengers are among the most well-known ones. The most important functions of social media are to influence the perception, attitude and final behavior of consumers. Predictive analytics is based on automatic search for connections, anomalies and patterns between various factors. To form a predictive model, a large set of statistical modeling methods, data mining, machine learning, neural networks and other mechanisms are used. Together with various methods of collecting information from Internet resources, such as parsing and social network APIs, predictive analytics can offer the most interesting sources of information for the user. In order to combine the methods of predictive analysis and data collection methods, it is necessary to take a detailed approach to the system design process. In this paper, special attention is paid to the detailed description of the second of the main parts of the system (the analysis subsystem). In addition, the full architecture and algorithm of operation are highlighted. The results obtained will be used in further development, and it is planned to use them in full. Working on this topic will facilitate the process of subsequent testing and research of the system.
Problem based learning didactic program to develop critical thinking in high school students
Authors: Laguna Estrada Xavier Alexander
Published: April 2022

The aim of this research was to determine the influence of the problem-based learning didactic program on the improvement of critical thinking of third grade high school students, in the area of Social Studies, of San Juan High School, Trujillo, 2020. The methodology was based on an experimental research design, in its preexperimental form, for which a single group consisting of 20 students was considered. To identify the level of critical thinking, before and after applying the program, whose learning sessions were carried out through the Zoom virtual videoconferencing, the data collection instrument called “Questionnaire to measure the level of critical thinking in the area of Social studies” was used. It should be noted that this instrument was validated by expert judgment and obtained an acceptable reliability coefficient with Cronbach's alpha consistency index. Hypothesis testing was done through the “student's t” test. It was concluded that the problem-based learning didactic program influences the improvement of critical thinking in Social studies of third grade students from San Juan High School, 2020, significantly.
Human thought in the science of law
Authors: Santos Cruz Teódulo J. , Esquivel Córdova Jenny E.
Published: April 2022

In this research with the help of Neuroscience, Physiology, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, thought was analyzed as movement, creation or product of brain neurons, which allows differentiating Law from legal sciences and the institutions with which they interrelate, as a product of an individual thought of each human being. The objective was to define and structure the levels and dimensions of human thought for the science of law and legal sciences, throughout the history of humanity. The scientific method was applied as the main method and the hermeneutical interpretation as a technique, in order to focus linguistics on the technical use of the object of study and its significance in law, legal sciences and legal-constitutional institutions. It was concluded that thought is a spatio-temporal movement of the brain neurons of living beings, it materializes as a human system, depending on the processes of hominization and humanization of man, in nature, in society, at work in direct relationship with the cosmos. We report the bibliography that served us as a basis.

A tube reactor simulation module based on MATLAB has been developed. For this the units considered were mathematically modeled, from the balances of matter and energy for plug and flow reactor. The obtained models were coded in the language of the program to later compile them through a graphical interface, providing a fast and intuitive means to carry out the corresponding calculations. The supply of the information required for the calculation of the state functions and other parameters is obtained from an attached database, created from the information obtained from the Design Institute for Physical Properties. The results obtained were compared with bibliographic data as well as compared with the values provided by other simulation programs.
Новое объяснение сознания: подход М. Грациано
Authors: Акопов Г.В.
Published: April 2022

В обзоре представлена теория М. Грациано, изложенная в книге «Сознание и социальный мозг». Определены ее новизна и существенные особенности концептуальной идентификации сознания. Осуществлено сопоставление основных положений «теории схемы внимания» с рядом других концепций сознания. Авторская композиция оснований теории достаточно представительна и охватывает нейронаучные, когнитивные, клинические, психологические и иные данные науки. Базовым понятием в оформлении теории Грациано является «внимание» в нейронаучной трактовке. Автор усматривает восемь существенных моментов сходства внимания и сознания: целенаправленность (интенциональность) сознания как эквивалент направленности, т.е. сфокусированности внимания; единая субстанция или источник сознания (Я как функция мозга) и внимания (селективная функция мозга); избирательность в проявлениях как сознания, так и внимания; градуированность, т.е. отчетливая дифференциация: центр — периферия в работе сознания и внимания; равная связь сознания и внимания с процессами памяти, перцепции, аффекта, мышления и др.; равная связь с действием и поведением; равная «глубина погружения» в информационное пространство; невозможность сознания без внимания. Отличие такой идентификации сознания от ранее предлагавшихся в классической и в современной когнитивной психологии сознания состоит в новом структурном оформлении внимания, что позволяет автору усмотреть ряд преимуществ своей теории в сравнении с другими информационными и социальными теориями сознания. Это, в частности, перспектива преодоления известного со времен Декарта дуализма, получившего наименование трудной проблемы в современной науке о сознании, а также обоснованная автором реципрокность индивидуального и социально-перцептивного сознания. Категории информации и репрезентации в равной мере важны для авторских положений о соответствующих процессах моделирования и оформления сознания, однако функции репрезентации не вполне ясно обозначены. Новая концепция сознания обогащает пространство современных исследований сознания – одной из самых сложных проблем современной науки.
Роль восприятия полиции и чиновников в агрессивности молодежи
Authors: Реан А.А. , Шагалов И.Л.
Published: April 2022

В статье представлены результаты исследования агрессивности и социально-перцептивного образа полиции и чиновников в сознании молодых людей. Исследование опирается на опрос 6563 молодых людей в возрасте от 16 до 19 лет, из которых 42% мужчин (2759 чел.) и 58% женщин (3804 чел.). Опрос был проведен в восьми российских регионах. Авторы используют оригинальную методику оценки восприятия индивидами социального окружения — «80 прилагательных», а также разработанный на ее основе коэффициент позитивного восприятия. Анализ данных показал, что в молодежной аудитории проявляются эффекты агрессивности по отношению к полиции, восприятие молодежью чиновников не показало значимой связи с исследуемыми психологическими параметрами. При этом сильнее всего с негативным восприятием связана реактивная агрессивность, возникающая как ответная реакция на внешнюю агрессию или угрозу. Также установлено, что отрицательное восприятие правоохранительных органов с 1996 по 2016 г. значимым образом не изменилось, а следовательно, характеризуется высокой степенью инертности и устойчивости. Кроме того, укоренившийся в психологии тезис о влиянии полноты семьи на агрессивность личности не нашел своего подтверждения в исследовании. Вместе с тем молодые люди, воспитанные двумя родителями, демонстрируют меньший уровень застенчивости и могут более успешно преодолевать трудности социализации. Анализ экзогенных факторов агрессивности показал связь между агрессией респондентов и размером города. В больших и густонаселенных городах молодые люди более склонны к агрессии, чем их сельские сверстники.

Authors: Jones Les , K. Naikare Hemant , C. Mosley Yung-Yi , Ralph A. Tripp and
Published: April 2022

COVID-19 is a public health challenge requiring rapid testing for detecting infections and transmission. Nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT) targeting SARS-CoV-2 (CoV2) are used to detect CoV2 in clinical samples.Real-time reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) is the standard NAAT for CoV2, although Reverse Transcription Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) is used in diagnostics. We show a sequence-specific RT-LAMP-based NAAT assay that is finished within 30 min using minimally processed clinical nasal swab samples and describe a fluorescent-quenched RT-LAMP assay (FQ-LAMP) using labeled primers and a quencher oligo. This assay can achieve rapid (30 min) and sensitive (1000 PFU/ml) fluorescent detection of CoV2 (WA1/2020), B.1.1.7 (Alpha), and variants of concern Delta (B.1.617.2) and Omicron (B.1.1.529) in nasal samples.

Modernidad como diferenciación. Marx, Weber, Simmel y Durkheim, nuevas interpretaciones
Authors:   Universidad de Buenos Aires, Lewkow Lionel , Zapata Juan Guillermo ,   Universidad de Antioquia
Published: April 2022

El eje central de la discusión que motiva la presente compilación es la discusión de la conceptualización diferenciación-individuación-sociedad en los cuatro clásicos más representativos de la teoría sociológica: Marx, Weber, Simmel y Durkheim, estableciendo, en primer lugar, todo un campo de investigación cuyo objetivo es, sin duda, el análisis sociológico de la condición moderna, y, en segundo lugar, toda una agenda de investigación contemporánea. Por tanto, la actualización-reivindicación de las obras de los fundadores de la sociología es otro de los ejes de discusión de este libro por cuanto la sociología contemporánea constituye un esfuerzo intelectual de interpretación y/o reinterpretación de los clásicos que se concentra en la actualización conceptual y metodológica de sus postulados, introduciendo en los análisis problemáticas nuevas, identificando así rupturas y/o continuidades.
Efectividad de los Juegos educacionales en la formación del cirujano:
Authors: Suárez-Gómez Andrea , Vega-Peña Neil Valentín
Published: April 2022

La educación médica ha propiciado estrategias de enseñanza-aprendizaje que integran nuevas actividades pedagógicas y evaluativas acordes con el avance en el conocimiento. Los juegos educacionales (JE) surgen como una opción en pro del mejoramiento en los objetivos y resultados educacionales, con una utilidad potencial dentro del proceso formativo de los cirujanos. Hay investigaciones crecientes sobre el tema. Objetivo: evaluar de forma cualitativa el estado de la evidencia disponible sobre la efectividad de los JE como estrategia pedagógica en estudiantes de postgrado de cirugía general.Método: revisión de alcance de la literatura, según la metodología del Joanna Briggs Institute. Se evaluó el impacto educacional de los JE según la clasificación de Kirkpatrick. Resultados: la evidencia acerca de la utilidad los JE en la educación médica en cirugía es limitada. Existe una heterogeneidad de metodologías, procesos y resultados educativos producto de implementar JE como instrumento de evaluación o de instrucción. No obstante, es posible un impacto positivo de acuerdo con las investigaciones. No hay una evaluación de los alcances y el rol de los JE en la formación de los cirujanos.Conclusión: los JE se constituyen en una estrategia novedosa a considerar en la educación en cirugía general. Su implementación se condiciona a la construcción de una evidencia sólida, reproducible y basada en objetivos claros de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Sin embargo, la investigación en el tema es incipiente.
Male Nursing Students’ Perception of Gender Barriers in Nursing Curricula in an Iranian University of Medical Sciences
Authors: Hosseini Fahimeh Alsadat , Parvan Kobra , Shaygan Maryam , Thomson Brian
Published: April 2022

Objective. The present study aimed to determine male nursing students’ perception of gender barriers in nursing curricula.

Methods. This descriptive study was conducted on 150 B.Sc.  and M.Sc. nursing students at Tabriz School of Nursing and Midwifery, Tabriz university of medical sciences, Tabriz, Iran that were selected through convenience sampling. The study data were collected using Inventory of Male Friendliness in Nursing Programs-Short (IMFNP-S). This scale has 17 items for investigating male nursing students’ perception of gender barriers in nursing curricula. Each item is a 5-point Likert-type scale scored from 0 to 4; total scale score could range from 0 to 68, higher scores representing male nursing students’ perception of less gender barriers in nursing curricula.

Results.  The total mean score of gender barriers was 35.11+6.15. The most important barriers included different requirements/limitations in obstetrics apprenticeship (Median=1), and need for proving oneself because of people’s expectation of nurses to be female (Median=2). On the other hand, the least important barriers were lack of important people’s support on one’s career decisions (Median=3), and lack of opportunity to work with other male nurses (Median=3). The scale score was not associated with the socio-demographic characteristics studied.

Conclusion. The most male nursing students feel various gender issues in the nursing curriculum in a medium level that may negatively impact on their learning, professional performance and motivation and tendency to nursing. Furthermore, this vicious cycle can lead to lack of professional development, leaving the job and burnout. Thus, creating a gender-neutral environment can make nursing programs more male friendly.

Abstract

Objective. To make a dialog about the nursing professionals’ perception regarding how they cope with COVID-19 and the repercussions on their practice and personal life.

Methods. This is a qualitative study, typified as participatory action research, which was carried out using Paulo Freire’s Research Itinerary linked to the steps of the Nursing Process. To that end, the following guiding question was launched: How is it for you to act as a nursing professional in the hospital area during the COVID-19 pandemic?

Results. Three syntheses emerged, which guided the discussion: The challenges of being a nursing professional in the pandemic. The learning and growth that the challenges of the pandemic have generated and Nursing as the protagonist of care. The Virtual Culture Circle was a space where, despite the limitations, provided a social interaction among the participants, with mutual exchange of experiences, with many reflections, besides expressions of feelings, experiences and learning obtained during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Conclusion. The nurses perceived that, although this moment highlights and appreciates the profession, nursing is overloaded and exhausted by the COVID-19 pandemic, with repercussions on professional and personal life. The care for those who care needs to be planned and implemented in different scenarios, and the Nursing Process built based on theoretical and scientific knowledge guide the effective improvement of the quality of health care.

Published: April 2022

This work describes the design, construction, and evaluation of a sequential discontinuous reactor with recirculation and aeration through a Herschel-type Venturi tube made of high-density polyethylene, coupled to a centrifugal pump. Four laboratory-scale prototypes were built, each with a volume of 8 L and a characteristic distance for venturi discharge. During the evaluation, temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen were monitored. Also, the chemical oxygen demand (COD), the biological oxygen demand (BOD5), and the total suspended solids (TSS) in the clarified discharge liquid were determined. The BOD5 reduction efficiency registered values higher than 80%, while the COD reduction efficiency was around 60%. Thus, the action of microorganisms reduced the biodegradability factor, the BOD5, and contributed to the DQO through soluble microbial products. Besides, the increase of solids retention time (SRT) evidenced the increase in biomass settleability, which positively contributed to SBR operation. The results obtained support the implementation of the sequential batch reactor with mixing and aeration by recirculation through a Venturi as a technology for wastewater treatment.

Background: Diabetes mellitus treatment is based on oral hypoglycemic agents or insulin. Medicinal plants constitute an option, and the leaves of Prosopis ruscifolia (Pr) were shown to be effective in reducing glycemia in hyperglycemic animals. Objective: In this paper, we report the effect of P. rusciofolia (Pr) on insulin and incretin secretion in alloxan-induced hyperglycemic rats. Methodology: The effective dose was selected, and four groups (n=10) of Wistar rats were used. Two groups with normal glycemia received water or Pr (75 mg/Kg, per os, p.o.), and two groups with hyperglycemia induced by alloxan (intraperitoneal, ip), received water or Pr (75 mg/Kg, p.o.) for 2 weeks. Oral glucose tolerance test, and incretin and insulin levels were measured at the end of the experimental period. Results: The results showed that extract promotes better tolerance to oral glucose overload, in addition to a statistically significant (p<0.001) increase in blood levels of incretin and insulin, compared to the hyperglycemic rats. Conclusion: It is concluded that the ethanolic extract of P. ruscifolia leaves has a hypoglycemic effect in hyperglycemic animals by a mechanism that involves the incretin-insulin system.
Automated Control System for the Process of Electroplating in a Bath with a Non-Conductive of Electric Current Screen
Authors: Pchelintseva I. Yu. , Litovka Yu. V.
Published: April 2022

The article has developed an automated control system for the electroplating process, which has a two-level architecture. At the lower level, the technological parameters of each bath are controlled: temperature stabilization and electrolyte level in the bath; stabilization or software control of electric current. At the upper level, the problem of calculating the optimal configuration of a non-conductive of electric current perforated screen is solved, providing a minimum value of the unevenness of the coating. For this, a nonlinear mathematical model of the galvanic process in a bath with a perforated screen is developed which differs from the known ones by adding boundary conditions on a non-conductive screen. It is noted that the nonlinearities contain the equations of the model describing the boundary conditions near the anode and cathode of the galvanic bath. Therefore, a numerical method for solving the model equations is developed, which is distinguished by the implementation of Newton’s method in Maxima (the mathematical package) through input/output redirection. The article describes an algorithm for working with a mathematical package, a feature of which is the preparation of package commands in a text format and parsing the results of calculations also from a text file. The applied numerical method for solving the system of model equations has a quadratic convergence rate which indicates its effectiveness on a large grid, for example, of 900 nodes. Numerous computational experiments is shown a tenfold gain in time compared to the traditional iterative method described in well-known articles.

For the first time, the problem of discrete optimization was posed and solved for the developed automated control system for the electroplating process. A feature of the formulation of this problem are restrictions that allow only a complete enumeration of possible values of the varied parameters, the volume of which is not large. Therefore, a sequential algorithm for solving the optimization problem is used. The combinations of possible values of the varied parameters and criterion values are given, and the time for solving the optimization problem is analyzed.

Published: April 2022

The theme of creativity is actualized in “Humiliated and Insulted” not only in the proper image of the main character, the writer. In addition, the motive of searching for a word in description of the world, which is so intensely conducted by Dostoevsky's hero, is revealed in the establishment of many intertextual connections of his works with the texts of other authors. The reminiscential structure of “Humiliated and Insulted”, emphasized in the narrative, allows the reader to see how this novel literally "being composed" before the eyes of its reader, presenting the opportunity for the word to create and transform the world.

Authors: Dekina E.V. , Shalaginova K.S.
Published: April 2022

The article discusses features of motivation and personality in adolescents studying in multicultural schools located in rural ares and offers psychological and pedagogical technologies for the study and prevention of negative phenomena. The materials of an empirical study obtained on a sample of 30 students of 8-9 grades of three rural schools of the Tula region are described. We used the questionnaires developed by ourselves as well as the following techniques: "Scale for assessing the need for achievement" (Yu.M. Orlov), "Motivation for success" (T. Ehlers), "Meaning-of-life orientations test" (D.A. Leontiev), "Lifestyle index" (a questionnaire by Plutchik-Kellerman-Conte). To prevent the negative phenomena in rural adolescents in a multicultural environment, the program "Strive for Change" was developed and tested. It includes the following areas of focused work: self- knowledge and self-development; development of the adolescent community; relationships with peers and adults; involvement in various activities based on the needs and interests of adolescents; actualization of professional self-determination; interaction with the family, class teacher, social worker; promoting the interest in representatives of various nationalities. We also provided several recommendations to teachers and parents on how to establish an appropriate environment for rural adolescents that would promote successful development of their motivation and personality. We suggest that such environment should meet the following requirements: the psychological and pedagogical work should be aimed at shaping the identity of a rural community member; families and schools should join their efforts in supporting traditions and transforming the rural society; any prevention programs and its methodological framework should be based on psychological and educational technologies that take into account the social and individual features of rural adolescents; interactions with adolescents should involve active engagement in socially significant activities based on their interests and abilities.
