Published: February 2023

The article presents analysis of the jet pump designs and methods of their improving, as well as technical approaches to their calculation, which is associated with a reasonable choice of an efficient variant, depending on the required accuracy of engineering calculations with optimal hardware support of pumping stations for solving specific oil and gas transportation tasks. According to the analysis results it has been inferred that one of the reasons for delay in application of jet pumping stations for lifting the fluid from the borehole space is the shortage of reliable surface-type pumping power stations, in particular, for driving the jet unit, as well as a compact set of equipment for purification and preliminary preparation of working fluid in the Russian Federation. For this reason, such units are mainly used for influencing the bottom-hole area, where the long-term permanent operation of jet pumping stations is not important, the mobile field pumping stations being possible as power plants.
MEANINGS ‘BOWL’ AND ‘SKULL’ IN THE MIRROR OF COMPARATIVE SEMANTICS: THE PROBLEM OF HISTORICAL PRAGMATICS AND ARCHAIZING TRANSLATION
Authors: Iliadi Alexander I.
Published: February 2023

The article is devoted to the consideration of the semantic relations between Indo-European words for designation of the cup and the head, skull, which hypothetically could form a cultural sign complex, that drawns to universality. The results of the study allow to make some conclusions. 1. Semantic pattern ‘bowl, cup’ → ‘skull, head’ reveals signs of universality, being inherent in lexico-semantic systems of many languages. This is due to typological common processes into vocabulary of analyzed languages. Everywhere this semantic development proceeds at about the same scheme, including allusions, ideophonia and reliance on cultural background. 2. Semantic shift ‘skull’ → ‘bowl, cup’ really is not attested in known us data. Available for study examples in fact show a play on words, used by the authors of texts, or ritually determined rethinking of semantic relations in the opposite direction. 3. Linguistic data is different from conclusions of archeologists, whose investigations confirm wide usage of bowls made of human skulls. Therefore further researches in the field of etymology can give researchers linguistic evidences of skulls usage as bowls in antiquity.
TO THE ISSUE OF POETRY TRANSLATION
Authors: Shpylievyi Daniil , Vilkova Olha , Salaukhina Oleksandra
Published: February 2023

This work is devoted to the peculiarities of the poetic text, the concept of poetic translation, the problem of form and content in poetic translation; discursive, pho-netic, graphic and linguistic features of the poetic text. Translation of poetry is a very difficult task. Even with careful translation, formal and semantic transformations are inevitable. Therefore, the translator has to sacrifice something and balance between artistic content and linguistic form. Of course, due to the variability of the choice of relevance depends on the context. Over the years, opinions on poetry translation have changed, and there is still no single approach, but the word “interpretation” is the most suitable here. When translating poetry, the number of interpretations can be infinite, but all interpretations will differ from each other in some way. By the end of this article, we can conclude that the process of translating poetry is indeed very complex and time-consuming, since the content of a poetic work is connected with a complex set of elements: rhythm, melody, strophe and stylistics, which when interacting with each other acquire additional meanings and create a certain effect.
WORLDVIEW UNIVERSALS IN LITERARY TRANSLATION

Published: February 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of rendering linguistic manifestations of worldview universals in English-Ukrainian literary translation. The fantasy genre as the material of the study proves to be the author’s embodiment of worldview universals, which, in their interaction and connection, set a holistic, generalized image of the human world. Worldview universals are categories that accumulate historically stored social experience. The system of worldview universals is the space in which a person of a certain culture evaluates, interprets and experiences the world, integrates all the phenomena of reality that appear in the sphere of his experience.

It has been proved that the fantasy work of J. Rowling is represented by the opposition of the “good” and the “evil”, which are constituted by the realities of the magical world. The results of the structural-semantic analysis of the thematic groups of the worldview universals that create the philosophical concept of the fantasy work and the lexical units that actualize them made it possible to set the following groups of realities: onomastic realities, everyday realities, ethnographic and mythological realities, the realities of the state-administrative system and public life.

The comparative analysis of the peculiarities of translation of the realities of the magical world suggests that the translator resorts to different translation techniques: actually descriptive translation, as well as various combinations of descriptive translation: transcription and descriptive translation in the translation commentary, transcription and descriptive translation in the text of the work, graphic transfer (preserving the original writing) and descriptive translation in the text of the work, calque translation and descriptive translation in the translation commentary.

Published: February 2023

In line with the development in the construction sector and continuous need for many of concrete structures that meet the need of continuous population increase in Iraq. It became necessary to think in concrete construction to be more economical through the use of alternative raw materials in concrete production. Also it helps to rid of materials that cause environmental problems.The first objective of this paper is to produce concrete less expensive. Second, reduce pollution of the environment in terms of using a type of glass which cannot be recycled in other industries. This type of glass will be used as a raw material in the concrete production instead of cement or sand by specific rates. Research results were carrying a good indicator about compressive strength when using a glass powder instead of cement; especially when the glass was grinding at a more time. When the compensation ratio instead of cement was 20%, and using glass was grinding by 16 hour; the results were a good. They were (31.99, 44.9, 51.64) MPa in age (7, 28, 56) respectively, compared with standard samples which were (22.4, 36.51, 43.2) MPa .

Published: February 2023

Vascular complications are the leading cause of increased morbidity and mortality of diabetic patients. It has been postulated that matrix metalloproteinases MMP-2 and MMP-9, zinc-dependent endopeptidases through remodeling of the extracellular matrix, can contribute to the onset and progression of diabetic vascular complications. The aim of our study was to assess whether there is a major difference in single nucleotide polymorphisms in the MMP-2 (at position -1306C˃T) and MMP-9 (at position -1562C˃T) gene in type 2 diabetic patients and healthy controls and to determine whether there is an association of these gene variants with the presence of microvascular complications in diabetic patients. Our study included 102 type 2 diabetes patients and a control group which was comprised of 56 healthy controls. All diabetic patients were screened for microvascular diabetes complications. Genotypes were detected by polymerase chain reactions followed by restriction analyses with specific endonucleases and their frequencies were determined. The MMP-2 variant -1306C>T showed a negative correlation with type 2 diabetes (p=0.028). It was also shown that the presence of the -1306C allele increases the probability of developing type 2 diabetes. This was a 2.2 fold increase and that the -1306 T allele has a protective role in regards to type 2 diabetes. The MMP-2 variant -1306T showed a negative correlation with diabetic polyneuropathy (p=0.017), meaning that allele-1306T has a protective role in regards to diabetic polyneuropathy while the presence of allele -1306C increases the probability of developing diabetic polyneuropathy by 3.4 fold. Our study showed that the MMP-2 gene variant (-1306C) doubles the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, and for the first time an association of this gene variant and the presence of diabetic polyneuropathy was shown.

Cardiomyopathies are a heterogeneous group of diseases predominantly affecting the heart muscle and often lead to progressive heart failure-related disability or cardiovascular death. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a cardiac muscle disorder mostly caused by the mutations in genes encoding cardiac sarcomere. Germ-line mutations in MYBPC3 causes hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). However, most of the HCM associated MYBPC3 mutations were truncating mutations. Extreme phenotypic heterogeneity was observed among HCM patients with MYBPC3 mutations. In this study, we investigated a Chinese man who presented with HCM. Whole exome sequencing identified a novel heterozygous deletion (c.3781_3785delGAGGC) in exon 33 of the MYBPC3 in the proband. This heterozygous variant causes frameshift (p.Glu1261Thrfs*3), which predicted to form a truncated MYBPC3 protein. The proband’s father also carries this variant in a heterozygous state while the proband’s mother did not harbor this variant. Here, we report on a novel deletion in the MYBPC3 gene associated with HCM. We also highlight the importance of whole exome sequencing for molecular diagnosis for the patients with familial HCM.

The purpose of the study is to determine the prevalence of interleukin (IL)-1A (rs1800587), IL-1B (rs1143634) and vitamin D receptor (VDR) (TaqI, rs731236) gene polymorphisms in the Turkish population and their association with Stage III Grade B/C periodontitis. Systemically and periodontally healthy individuals (N = 100) and Stage III Grade B/C periodontitis patients (N=100) based on clinical and radiographic examination were included in this research. Clinical attachment level, probing depth, bleeding on probing, plaque and gingival indices of the subjects were measured. Genotyping of IL-1A (rs1800587), IL-1B (rs1143634) and VDR (rs731236) polymorphisms was conducted by Real Time PCR. Allelic and genotypic distributions of IL-1A (rs1800587) gene polymorphism were not associated with periodontitis (p>0.05). In IL-1B (rs1143634) gene polymorphism, the C allele was detected more frequently in healthy individuals compared with the periodontitis patients (p=0.045). CC genotype and C allele in VDR (rs731236) gene polymorphism was higher in periodontitis patients (p=0.031, p=0.034, respectively). In comparison with Grade B periodontitis patients and healthy subjects, CC genotype and C allele were observed more frequently in the Grade B periodontitis in terms of alleles (C/T) and genotypes for VDR (rs731236) polymorphism (p=0.024, p=0.008, respectively). This study presents that the VDR (rs731236) polymorphism are associated with enhanced susceptibility to Stage III periodontitis in the Turkish population. Furthermore, VDR (rs731236) polymorphism may be used as an identification criteria to discriminate Grade B and Grade C in Stage III periodontitis.
A novel likely pathogenic variant in the RUNX1 gene as the cause of congenital thrombocytopenia
Authors: Despotović M , Pereza N , Peterlin B , Ostojić S , Golob B , Maver A , Roganović J
Published: February 2023

Introduction

Heterozygous pathogenic and likely pathogenic sequence variants in the RUNX1 (Runt-related Transcription Factor 1) gene are a common genetic cause of decreased platelet count and/or platelet dysfunction and an increased risk of developing myelodysplasia and acute myeloid leukemia. The majority of causative variants are substitutions, which rarely occur de novo. The aim of this case report is to present a patient with congenital thrombocytopenia caused by a deletion variant in exon 9 in the RUNX1 gene.

Case report

A one-month-old male infant was admitted to the Clinical Hospital Center Rijeka because of anemia and thrombocytopenia verified in the course of an acute viral infection. During follow-up, he occasionally had petechiae and ecchymoses on the lower extremities after mild trauma, with no other symptoms. The patient had persistent slightly decreased values of platelets with normal morphology, but with pathological aggregation with adrenaline and adenosine diphosphate. Due to the unclear etiology of persistent mild thrombocytopenia, he was referred for genetic testing at the age of five. Genomic DNA was isolated from the patient’s peripheral blood and whole-exome sequencing was performed using the next-generation sequencing method. A heterozygous frameshift variant, c.1160delG (NM_001754.4), was identified in exon 9. The variant is classified as likely pathogenic.

Conclusion

To the best of our knowledge, the heterozygous variant c.1160delG in the RUNX1 gene was first described in our patient. Although pathogenic variants in the RUNX1 genes are very rare, persistently low platelet counts of unclear etiology should raise suspicion of an underlying genetic disorder.

Published: February 2023

Deficiency of lysosomal acid lipase (LAL-D) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the LIPA gene. Spectrum of LAL-D ranges from early onset of hepatosplenomegaly and psychomotor regression (Wolman disease) to a more chronic course (cholesteryl ester storage disease - CESD). The diagnosis is based on lipid and biomarker profiles, specific liver histopathology, enzyme deficiency, and identification of causative genetic variants. Biomarker findings are a useful for diagnostics of LAL-D, including high plasma concentration of chitotriosidase as well as elevated oxysterols. Current treatment options include enzyme replacement therapy (sebelipase-alpha), statins, liver transplantation, and stem cell transplantation.

We present two pairs of siblings from Serbia with a distinctive phenotype resembling LAL-D with a novel variant of unknown significance (VUS) detected in the LIPA gene and residual LAL activity. All patients presented with hepatosplenomegaly at early childhood. In siblings from family 1, compound heterozygosity for a pathogenic c.419G>A (p.Trp140Ter) variant and a novel VUS c.851C>T (p.Ser284Phe) was detected. Patients from family 2 were homozygous for c.851C>T VUS and both have typical histopathologic findings for LAL-D in the liver. Enzyme activity of LAL was tested in three patients and reported as sufficient, and therefore enzyme replacement therapy could not be approved.

When confronted with a challenge of diagnosing an inherited metabolic disorder, several aspects are taken into consideration: clinical manifestations, specific biomarkers, enzyme assay results, and molecular genetic findings. This report brings cases to light which have a considerable discrepancy between those aspects, namely the preserved LAL enzyme activity in presence of clinical manifestations and rare variants in the LIPA gene.

Published: February 2023

Introduction

APOE is one of the prominent genes involved in the increased risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease, but its effect on cognition in patients who are not yet diagnosed with dementia or mild cognitive impairment is relatively understudied. We aimed to examine the effect of ApoE4 on cognitive performance in unimpaired middle-aged and elderly persons.

Materials and methods

Our study included 51 cognitively unimpaired participants divided into ApoE4 positive patients and controls by APOE genotyping. The following clinical and demographic characteristics were collected: age, gender, education, social status, BMI, history of medical or psychiatric disorders. Patients with current anxiety or depressive disorders were excluded. Cognitive function was evaluated using MMSE, Rey Auditory-Verbal Learning Test, Rey Complex Figure test, TMT A and B and verbal fluency test. The two groups were matched for age, sex, and education. Categorial data was analyzed using Chi-Square and continuous data using Student-T test (parametric variables) or Mann-Whitney test (non-parametric variables). Statistical significance was considered at p≤.05.

Results

There were 11 (21.6%) ApoE4 positive patients and 40 (78.4%) controls. There were no significant differences between the groups regarding socio-demographic and clinical characteristics. The ApoE4 positive group performed slightly worse on cognitive evaluations compared to controls but only the mean scores of the Rey Complex Figure Test – Memory reached statistical significance (p=.019).

Conclusion

Cognitive evaluation generally rendered lower scores in the ApoE4 group compared to the control group. However, only visual memory impairment scores were significantly lower in the ApoE4 positive individuals than in controls.

Errors in criminal law studies are known in two forms, namely errors based on the element of intent (dolus) and errors based on the element of starvation (culpa). Negligence (Culpa offense) which the perpetrator did not want. Cases related to Delik Culpa where a person, due to his negligence, committed a criminal act, was often committed by the community. This case is not uncommon and there are still pros and cons in the field of law. There are many examples of cases where due to their negligence other people died. As the explanation of article 359 of the Criminal Code in the positive criminal law for the criminal offender (offense Culpa), even though his negligence has taken the life of another person, he is still convicted. It is known that the Islamic Criminal Law (Fiqh Jinayah), there is a classification of criminal acts and sanctions, negligence in murder (fi qatli al khata ') is someone who commits an act accidentally, but by reason of this action it can result in the loss of another person's life. The penalty for errant murder is almost the same as for deliberate murder, namely the basic punishment of diyat and kafarat, and the substitute punishment is ta'zir and fasting and there are additional penalties, namely deprivation of inheritance rights and revocation of the right to receive a will

The study investigates the anion and cation concentrations and their distribution in the Dammam  aquifer to assess the groundwater suitability for irrigation and livestock in Sayed Al-Shuhadaa, Karbala, central Iraq. It lies between longitudes 43º 29' 00'' – 43º 40' 00'' E and latitudes (32º 17' 00'' – 32º22' 00'') N. The physicochemical properties, cations and anions were measured in 14 active wells distributed in the study area. The assessment was conducted based on the sodium adsorption rate (SAR), sodium percentage (Na%), electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), and Hydrogen number (pH). Groundwater in the study area is very good for livestock and characterised by no damage, as the rate of sodium adsorption was good. The percentage of sodium and pH values are within the permissible values for irrigation, except for some wells that have high TDS and EC, which leads to an increase in salinity.

The aim of this paper is to estimate a single reliability system (R = P, Z > W) with a strength Z subjected to a stress W in a stress-strength model that follows a power Rayleigh distribution. It proposes, generates and examines eight methods and techniques for estimating distribution parameters and reliability functions. These methods are the maximum likelihood estimation(MLE), the exact moment estimation (EMME), the percentile estimation (PE), the least-squares estimation (LSE), the weighted least squares estimation (WLSE) and three shrinkage estimation methods (sh1) (sh2) (sh3). We also use the mean square error (MSE) Bias and the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) to compare the estimation methods. Both theoretical comparison, simulation and real data are used. The results in light of this distribution show the advantage of the proposed methods.

Published: February 2023

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), the second-most-serious parasitic illness after malaria, is currently endemic in more than 88 countries. Need for new anti-leishmanial compounds is currently being taken into consideration by researchers due to resistance and lack of effective vaccinations. This research was conducted to find out more about the effect of artemisinin (ART). ART was examined in vitro promastigotes stages and ex vivo amastigotes stages of the Iraqi strain of Leishmania donovani in U937 cell line after 24, 48 and 27 hours using MTT assay. In addition, the level of macrophage nitric oxide (NO) was measured using Griess assay in U937 cell line. The results of promastigotes viability percentage were less than 50 %, where the IC50 was 43.8, 37.9 and 36.6 µM respectively. Similar cytotoxic effect of ART was observed against amastigote forms, where the cell viability was 36.11, 40.2 and 37.4 µM respectively, after the three times of follow up.. Furthermore, by using Griess assay the level of nitrite in infected macrophages was measured. The results after 48hr were 6.58 in high concentration and 1.22 in lower concentration. However, considering the absence of a significant difference, the observed concentrations are still higher than the control when compared to Griess assay.. These findings demonstrated that ART has a cytotoxic effect on both forms of L. donovani. It also increased iNOS production in infected macrophages which can define artemisinin therapeutic efficacy against L. donovani infection.
Study the Antimicrobial Resistance Genes of Listeria Monocytogenes Isolated From Industrial and Clinical Samples in Iraq
Authors: Al-Brefkani Azad Mohammed Taher
Published: February 2023

Multi-drug resistance in Listeria monocytogenes is considered a major public health problem associated with foodborne outbreaks and causes high hospitalization and mortality rates. This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial resistant genes among Listeria monocytogenes isolated from meat and clinical samples. Phenotypically, the isolates were tested for their susceptibility against the 12 most commonly used antimicrobials in veterinary and human therapy via the disc diffusion method, while conventional PCR was performed to study the presence or absence of 14 resistance genes predicted in L. monocytogenes isolates. The study established that 30(66.66%) of L. monocytogenes isolates showed phenotypic multi-drug resistance against at least three antimicrobial classes. Furthermore, high resistance frequencies were reported among commonly used antibiotics for listeriosis therapy. The present study revealed that the investigated isolates show resistance against tetracycline 33(73.3%), ampicillin 29(64.4%), penicillin 28(62.2%), erythromycin 26(57.8%), and gentamycin, clindamycin and vancomycin 24(53.3% each). Of the 45 L. monocytogenes isolates studied, 37(82.2%) were phenotypically susceptible to meropenem, followed by ciprofloxacin 36(80.0%) and SXT 30(66.7%). PCR amplification of antimicrobial resistance genes established the occurrence of antibiotic resistance genes in all studied L. monocytogenes isolates. Notably, 41(91.11%) of these isolates exhibited more than five resistance genes. Surprisingly, penA and ampC were detected in all L. monocytogenes strains   45(100%), followed by ermB 44(97.8%), tetA 38(84.4%), tetG 32(71.1%), and vanB 30(66.7%). Moreover, vanA 22(48.9%) and tetB 18(40.0%) were detected less frequently. The lowest incidences of resistance genes were observed in L. monocytogenes carrying tetD 4(8.9%) and cmlA 6(13.3%). In conclusion, the study demonstrates that the majority of L. monocytogenes from human and meat samples displayed a high index of resistance to a variety of agents used for clinical listeriosis treatment adding further burden to the existing global antibiotic resistance problem.

Emotional Labor in the Service Sector: The Role of Organizational Commitment
Authors: Uysal Hasan Tezcan , Yılmaz Fatma
Published: February 2023

This research examines the Organizational Commitment (OC) levels and emotional labor (levels) (EL) of employees in the service sector and to determine whether there is a significant relationship between these variables, to identify which dimensions of OC affect which dimensions of EL if there is a significant relationship, and to determine whether EL varies statistically according to demographic factors. For this purpose; a survey has been carried out in Zonguldak province in Türkiye and the data were obtained by a face-to-face survey method of 433 workers actively working in the service sector. These data have been tested with reliability, correlation, simple linear regression, multiple variance analysis, independent sample T-test and one-way variance analysis. Because of the reliability analysis carried out, it has been determined that the scales used in the research have high internal consistency. The correlation analysis indicates a moderate and positive relationship between the normative and emotional commitment dimensions of EL and OC. Because of simple linear regression analyses; it has been determined that the 1-unit increase in emotional commitment caused an increase of 0.693 units on EL and a 1-unit increase in normative commitment caused an increase of 0.959 units on EL.
Análisis de la brecha de género de desempleo en Colombia 2001-2021: Un modelo SARIMA-GARCH
Authors: Romero Mantilla Carolina , Cárdenas Greissly , Ramoni-Perazzi Josefa
Published: February 2023

La reducción de la brecha de género de desempleo se considera un indicador de la capacidad de empoderamiento de la mujer en pro del crecimiento equitativo de la economía del país. A nivel regional, Colombia exhibe una de las brechas de desempleo más altas, pese a los esfuerzos realizados para cerrarlas. El objetivo del presente estudio es modelar la evolución de la brecha de desempleo en Colombia en el periodo 2001:01 - 2021:06, para pronosticar su comportamiento y determinar su volatilidad. Para ello, se recurre a un Modelo Autorregresivo Integrado de Medias Móviles estacional (SARIMA) con Heteroscedasticidad Condicional Autorregresiva Generalizada (GARCH). Los resultados indican que, aunque la brecha de género venia presentando un ligero descenso en las dos últimas décadas, este fue impactado de forma negativa por la pandemia del Covid-19 lo que provocó que creciera de nuevo. Por otro lado, se incrementa la volatilidad de la serie haciéndola más vulnerable a los ciclos económicos y estacionales. Finalmente, el pronóstico indica que la brecha tenderá a decrecer en los siguientes meses, no obstante, se incrementará nuevamente para diciembre dado el componente estacional.

Authors: Olarte Cabana Jairo Alberto , González González Patricia
Published: February 2023

El objetivo de este artículo, es proponer el Value-added Intellectual Coefficient (VAIC) como una herramienta que mide la creación de valor adicionado a partir de la eficiencia productiva del capital intelectual en grandes empresas agroindustriales del departamento del Magdalena, Colombia; para ello, se elaboraron estados de valor adicionado, luego se determinaron los índices propuestos por la metodología VAIC, y, finalmente, se confirmaron las hipótesis de asociación y relación significativa entre el VAIC e indicadores financieros. En los resultados empíricos, basados en la validación de hipótesis, estimadores, análisis de regresión lineal múltiple y panel de datos, la mayoría de las empresas analizadas obtuvieron una nota con concepto bueno frente a la creación de valor adicionado; así mismo, se validó la fuerte capacidad de explicación del VAIC, en sí, de la eficiencia del capital humano, con respecto a los valores obtenidos en la utilidad operacional; resultado que confirma los supuestos de la teoría de los recursos y capacidades.
TRAFFIC SIGNS CONSPICUITY IN URBAN ENVIRONMENT: A CASE OF LONDON
Authors: Sunjoto Margareth
Published: February 2023

The conspicuity of traf ic signs is crucial, as their purpose is to give drivers with direction and information. The ef ectiveness and ef iciency of a traf ic sign is determined by its visibility, legibility, and veracity of information for observers. This study recruited primarily postgraduate students as participants. The assessment was conducted as part of a controlled experiment. Method used in this research is a controlled indoor experiment using a visual search task in which a random order of daytime and nighttime scenes are given within 200 milliseconds. Subjects were instructed to identify any visible signs at the scene. Four variables, including the size/distance of signs, the complexity of the background, the luminance contrast, and the color dif erence, were utilized. The results reveal that the size of the sign influences its conspicuity. Sign conspicuity is likewise af ected by luminance contrast, however it may have a greater ef ect at night. The results may also show that the impact of color dif erence between daylight and nighttime conditions is minimal. In as much as a portion of the parameter's value is based on visual evaluation, and the findings do not appear to have reached a statistically significant level, additional methodological refinement is required.

Security of the Media Audience in the Modern Information Space
Authors: Marochkina Svetlana Stanislavovna , Kruglova Marina Sergeevna , Kruglova Lorina Ermondovna
Published: February 2023

The object of the study is the current state of the information space, the subject of the study is human security in the conditions of modern media space. The author examines in detail such aspects of the topic as the impact of media products on society, manipulative and viral technologies in the media sphere, the theory of setting the agenda, the problem of fake content in mass communications. Particular attention is paid to finding ways to identify fakes in the information field of the Internet and, in particular, social networks to ensure the media security of the user. The authors consider the dynamics of the development of the phenomenon of "post-truth" against the background of pandemic reality, analyze the differences between true news and fake, and provide a set of measures to expose false data in the media environment. The main conclusion of the study is the judgment that the mass audience invariably faces the need to filter content and recognize fakes, especially in the online environment of social networks, which requires certain procedures for monitoring and analyzing information. A special contribution of the author to the research of the topic is the conduct of a sociological study and processing of the results, which allowed us to form a model for evaluating news content in social networks to identify fake posts. The scientific novelty of the study consists in considering the previously unexplored features of the media security of the modern media audience in the information space on the example of social media resources.
Two Concepts of Artificial Intelligence: Realistic and Utopian
Authors: Rozin Vadim Markovich
Published: February 2023

The article analyzes modern concepts of artificial intelligence. The author suggests distinguishing between two main ones: utopian and realistic; in the first, it is argued that it is possible to create machines that think like a person and even better than him, in the second, intelligence is presented as a kind of psychobiological computer. An excursion into the history of the development of artificial intelligence is made, within the framework of which three approaches are considered that have had a serious impact on the development of this phenomenon: the reducinalist approach, psychological and computer. Artificial intelligence is compared with natural intelligence, the latter is considered as a complex semiotic, cultural and social education, involving human communication, development, filiation of ideas and techniques. The conclusion is made and justified, according to which the utopian concept of artificial intelligence cannot be implemented, although efforts to implement it will continue for a long time. One of the arguments here are contradictions in the ethical interpretation of artificial intelligence, which is discussed in the form of a virtual dialogue between the author and the designer of modern robots. On the contrary, the realistic concept is implemented in the form of a permanent project. There are practically no anthropological claims in this concept, and the concept of intelligence is reduced here, i.e. intelligence means imitation of only those established intellectual processes that can be modeled and algorithmized, which is a necessary condition for programming.
Critical comparative curriculum research beyond globalized neoliberal policy

Published: February 2023

Problemas transnacionales, como el nacionalismo cultural, el populismo, el proteccionismo económico, la construcción de la identidad en las redes sociales, el comportamiento performativo, el fundamentalismo religioso, la desconfianza en la participación política democrática y una disminución del respeto por las instituciones generadoras de conocimiento los medios de comunicación tradicionales, han puesto en tela de juicio las ideas tradicionales de ciudadanía y de formación de la identidad en las sociedades democráticas en los últimos 30 años. El auge de los nuevos medios de comunicación social y la ideología neoliberal dominante en los estados capitalistas han contribuido a estas tendencias. La Teoría de la Educación No Afirmativa (NAT) permite abordar estos retos ofreciendo un marco reflexivo desde el que analizar los objetivos, los contenidos, los métodos y la gobernanza de la educación, y puede servir como punto de partida para la investigación curricular comparada.

This article presents the results of a case study carried out in a school where a researchaction process is launched that fails. The object of this study is to understand in depth which inhibitors have been involved in it. We are dealing with a qualitative investigation. As instruments for the investigation, video recordings have been made. Teachers, students and families were interviewed. Abundant field notes of observations in the classrooms were made. Finally, the data has been triangulated with interviews with different teachers, holding a meeting with the management team. We have verified that the internal inhibitors were the most frequent and most influential in stopping the project. We finally concluded that there is never a single cause but rather a combination of several. The inhibitors do not have to be negative, and the
PERANCANGAN ULANG TATA LETAK FASILITAS MENGGUNAKAN METODE ARC GUNA MEMAKSIMALKAN PRODUKTIVITAS KERJA PADA UKM SB JAYA DI CISAGA

Published: February 2023

Judul dari skripsi ini adalah “Perancangan Ulang Tata Letak Fasilitas Menggunakan Metode Arc Guna Memaksimalkan Produktivitas Kerja pada UKM SB Jaya di Cisaga”. Pada penelitian ini membahas mengenai tata letak fasilitas di salah satu UKM produk makanan keripik di Cisaga yaitu UKM SB Jaya yang meliputi aktivitas proses produksi, layout, pengolahan data, dan perancangan ulang tata letak fasilitas UKM. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Activity Relationship Chart (ARC) yang dikembangkan oleh Richard Muther (1973). Teknik pengumpulan data pada penelitian ini yaitu studi litelatur dan studi lapangan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan aktivitas produksi pada UKM SB Jaya yakni pembuatan keripik singkong yang terdiri dari pengupasan bahan baku, pemotongan bahan baku, penggorengan, kemudian pengemasan. Hubungan aktivitas produksi pada UKM SB Jaya kurang optimal, hal ini dikarenakan penempatan stasiun kerja yang belum teratur dan terencana menyebabkan terjadinya aliran material yang bersilangan dalam proses produksi. Kemudian perancangan ulang tata letak fasilitas pada UKM SB Jaya berdasarkan metode Activity Relationship Chart (ARC) menghasilkan penempatan stasiun kerja yang lebih teratur sesuai dengan hubungan aktivitas proses produksi sehingga menghilangkan aliran material yang bersilangan, aliran proses produksi yang relatif lebih pendek dibandingkan dengan aliran proses produksi pada layout awal, sehingga proses produksi lebih efektif.
