The system of executive process science: current issues
Authors: Fursa S. , Фурса Ye.
Published: November 2022

This scientific article is devoted to issues of the executive process science system. In particular, attention was drawn to the need to systematize information into two blocks, which concerns the organization of enforcement bodies and procedural activities of the state and private executor. Concepts and components of the system of the science of the executive process are formulated and emphasis is placed on the fact that when systematizing information about the enforcement of decisions of courts and other bodies (officials), it is essential to decide the question for whom this information should be used. In particular, for scientists in the research field, for students in the educational process, for practicing specialists and ordinary citizens who are users of enforcement services. Speaking about the system of science, the authors drew attention to the scientific works of scientists who are engaged in researching issues of executive proceedings, but noted that the approaches to this jurisdictional activity of persons authorized by the state are different, which significantly affects the educational process, the practice of enforcement of decisions, and especially legislative activity regarding the preparation of a new version of the law on bodies that carry out enforcement of decisions and the procedure of executive proceedings itself The proper systematization of information by scientists regarding executive proceedings will significantly affect the improvement of relevant legislation and the streamlining of the procedural activities of executors at various stages of executive proceedings, which will contribute to the implementation of the main task facing the enforcement bodies of the full, timely and objective execution of the decision and the restoration of violated rights subjects of civil and other relations. Various sources of information on enforcement proceedings were analyzed, in particular, the websites of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, bodies of the state executive service, private executors, which should also be taken into account by scientists, summarized, analyzed in order to solve those problematic situations that occur in this area of ​​jurisdictional activity and improving the state of enforcement of decisions.
The concept and classification of reasons for a court decision in economic litigation
Authors: Cherkez D.
Published: November 2022

Issues of the historical formation of the motives of a court decision as a component of the process of motivation of court decisions in the economic judiciary of Ukraine are highlighted.

Attention is drawn to the complex nature of the motives of the court decision, to their twofold subjective-normative essence. Emphasis is placed on the importance of motivational reasons, judicial reasoning and judicial conviction, as the fundamental motives of the law enforcement activity of judges of the economic jurisdiction.

The significant complexity of such a psychological category as a motive was noted, even regardless of the procedural activity associated with the motivation of court decisions.

The existing classification of reasons for a court decision is analyzed and the legal characteristics of the main types of reasons are provided. Attention was drawn to the inadmissibility of taking into account "political motives" in the process of judicial proceedings. The importance of the role of judges in the process of citing the motives of court decisions, taking into account moral aspects in order to endow judicial acts with the property of justice, is noted.

Emphasis is placed on the complexity and importance of the activity of economic jurisdiction judges in providing sufficient and convincing reasons for the decision, which requires maximum professional knowledge, skills and abilities from them.

On the basis of the obtained results, the need for further improvement of the motivational and law-enforcing activity of the court is stated, which will ensure that every person realizes the principle of the rule of law and the right to a fair hearing of his case, with the receipt of a high-quality and motivated court decision.

One-wheeled self-balancing robot is a high-order SIMO system. It is developed from bicycle balancing and two-wheeled self-balancing robot by using only one wheel instead of two wheels. In this paper, we consider this model as two combined SIMO systems. Thence, a PID control structure is designed to balance this model not falling on a plane. Simulations are shown to prove again the ability of PID controllers in balancing this robot is two directions. Besides, we present a hardware platform of one-wheel self-balancing robot. Through the real model, PID control algorithm is proved to balance this object well at equilibrium point.
SOME REMARKS CONCERNING THE “USE OF AN OBJECT”
Authors: MÂNDRUȚ David-Augustin
Published: November 2022

The aim of this paper is to propose some philosophical interpretations of Winnicott’s concept of the use of an object. These interpretations will be coming from Heidegger’s fundamental ontology and from Buber’s late philosophical anthropology. We also noticed that Winnicott’s theory of the use of an object was already in some way or another present in the Phenomenology of Spirit, in the fourth chapter, where consciousness is treated in terms of desire. Our main thesis is that after the subject encounters the resistance of the external world, its adversity and contrasting feature, the subject recognizes it as something independent and autonomous from the Self, so the subject is able therefore to set that being at a distance, enter into relation with it, and finally establish the world qua world. We are going also to draw lines between Winnicott’s perspective and the views of some phenomenological authors such as Eugen Fink, Merleau-Ponty or Marc Richir.
BETWEEN PATHOLOGY AND WELL-BEHAVIOUR – A POSSIBLE FOUNDATION FOR TAME MATHEMATICS
Authors: MOLDOVAN Angelo-Vlad
Published: November 2022

An in-depth examination of the foundations of mathematics reveals how its treatment is centered around the topic of unique foundation vs. no need for a foundation in a traditional setting. In this paper, I show that by applying Shelah’s stability procedures to mathematics, we confine ourselves to a certain section that manages to escape the Gödel phenomenon and can be classified. We concentrate our attention on this mainly because of its tame nature. This result makes way for a new approach in foundations through model-theoretic methods. We then cover Penelope Maddy’s foundational virtues and what it means for a theory to be foundational. Having explored what a tame foundation can amount to, we argue that it can fulfil some of Maddy’s foundational qualities. In the last part, we will examine the consequences of this new paradigm – some philosophical in nature – on topics like philosophy of mathematical practice, the incompleteness theorems and others.
The Philosophical Fusion of the Primitive Aesthetics of Chinese and Western Religious Paintings and the Study of Contemporary Paintings
Authors: Gao Ming Sun Fei,
Published: November 2022

When art develops to a certain extent, it is bound to be mixed with traces of religion, and art influenced by religion occupies an important position in the entire history of art development. Looking at the development history of Chinese and Western painting art, we can find that there are indeed many connections between religion and art. The spiritual transmission of religion is carried out using intuition through painting art, and its vital role is reflected in the long history of human civilization. This paper studies the relationship between the philosophical fusion of the original aesthetics of Chinese and Western religious painting and contemporary painting by studying the development and characteristics of religious painting in China and the West. This paper studies the differences between Chinese and Western religious doctrines and how religious figure painting embodies divinity and secularized humanity in terms of painting methods and forms of expression. The study of the philosophical fusion of the original aesthetics of Chinese and Western religious paintings and its influence on contemporary paintings fills the gap in this aspect.

Investigation of the Optoelectronic and Photovoltaic Properties of YxIN1-xP Alloys using First Principles Calculations
Authors: Talbi Khedija , Cherchab Youcef , Mir Ali , Bouhadef Bachir
Published: November 2022

Structural stability, electronic, optical, and photovoltaic properties of pure and doped InP were evaluated by using first principles calculations via the density functional theory (DFT). The exchange-correlation potential is treated with generalized gradient approximation (GGA-PBE). Additionally, the Tran Blaha modified Becke-Johnson exchange potential (TB-mBJ) is employed, because it gives very accurate results of the band gap in solids. Our results reveal that all compounds are energetically and mechanically stable. It is found that for Y concentrations less than 30%, the favored structure is a Zinc blende-like one, while for Y concentrations greater than 30%, the favored structure is a NaCl-like structure. The substitution of In by Y is found to be able to enlarge the direct bandgap of about 34% (from 1.43 eV to 2.17 eV) and confirms the semiconductor behavior for zinc blende stable structures. The absorption coefficient is reasonably exceeding 105
cm
−1 for YxIn1-xP alloys in the case (x=0 and x=25%). The reflectivity shows less than 30% around the energy value of 2 eV and an efficiency of solar cell of 18% can be achieved for Y0.25In0.75P. Also, a thickness of L = 1μm is enough to confirm the experimental data. Regarding to the matching of lattice parameters (a mismatch < 4%) of InP and Y0.25In0.75P and the band gap energy difference made Y0.25In0.75P suitable for optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices in particularity as Tandem solar cells (Y0.25In0.75P/InP) and quantum well (Y0.25In0.75P/InP/Y0.25In0.75P) applications. In the absence of experimental works, our results can be useful for further studies.
Short-Term PV Power Forecasting Based on Sky Imagery. A Case Study at the West University of Timisoara
Authors: Blaga Robert , Dughir Ciprian , Sabadus Andreea , Stefu Nicoleta , Paulescu Marius
Published: November 2022

This study deals with the performance of PV2-state model in intra-hour forecasting of photovoltaic (PV) power. The PV2-state model links an empirical model for estimating the PV power delivered by a PV system under clear-sky with a model for forecasting the relative position of the Sun and clouds. Sunshine number (SSN), a binary quantifier showing if the Sun shines or not, is used as a measure for the Sun position with respect to clouds. A physics-based approach to intra-hour forecasting, processing cloud field information from an all-sky imager, is applied to predict SSN. The quality of SSN prediction conditions the overall quality of PV2-state forecasts. The PV2-state performance was evaluated against a challenging database (high variability in the state-of-the-sky, thin cloud cover, broken cloud field, isolated passing clouds) comprising radiometric data and sky-images collected on the Solar Platform of the West University of Timisoara, Romania. The investigation was performed from two perspectives: general model accuracy and, as a novelty, identification of characteristic elements in the state-of-the-sky which fault the SSN prediction. The outcome of such analysis represents the basis of further research aiming to increase the performance in PV power forecasting.
Investigating the Effect of Rotor Design Changes on Mechanical Losses Due to Rotor-Fluid Interaction
Authors: Kudláček Petr , Novotný Pavel , Vacula Jiří , Kocman František
Published: November 2022

The overall efficiency of high-speed rotating machines depends largely on their mechanical efficiency. Mechanical efficiency is not just a matter of bearing losses, but includes all interactions of the rotor with the environment. Analytical and empirical descriptions of turbulent or laminar flow around rotating surfaces have been used to estimate the mechanical losses of a turbocharger rotor based on geometric parameters and operating conditions. Based on the knowledge of the effect of each parameter, design changes to the rotor were proposed. The positive effect of simple design modifications on mechanical losses was experimentally verified by measurements on a test turbocharger.
Thrombophilia and Pregnancy

Published: November 2022

Leading cause of death in pregnant women still remains venous thromboembolism, with an incidence of 1.4 to 4.9 per 100,000 pregnancies. A special group of inherited and acquired coagulation disorders associated with a susceptibility to thrombosis is thrombophilia. Physiological changes during the pregnancy also contribute to the occurrence thromboembolic diseases (VTE) in pregnancy. Total rate of venous thromboembolism is 100 per 100,000 pregnancies and 200 per 100,000 births. Etiopathogenesis of obstetric complications in thrombophilia is not clearly defined, which is one of the reasons for the occasional failure of therapy. In pregnancies with hereditary thrombophilia the oxidative stress is considered to be a cause of complications, similar to preeclampsia. Based on the findings so far, additional research should clarify questions regarding the anticoagulants role in pregnancy loss prevention. In this paper, we analyze the effect of the screening on pregnancy outcomes, consider the justification for the use of anticoagulation therapy in difficult situations, discuss about previous knowledge in the field and argue the use of new specific protocols. In short, we address the justification for prescribing anticoagulants and evaluation of their effect within thrombophilia therapeutic strategies.

Representações da velhice: uma análise dos desenhos de crianças, antes e depois de uma ação educativa gerontológica
Authors: Todaro Monica de Ávila , Cachioni Meire
Published: November 2022

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar as representações da velhice em desenhos de crianças. O referencial teórico adotado está pautado em Vygotsky e Moscovici e considera o espectro sociocognitivo de suas teorias. Parte-se do princípio de que as crianças não desenham apenas o que veem, mas o que sentem, somado ao que ouvem. A pesquisa de campo foi, assim, realizada em uma escola pública de Ensino Fundamental e teve como participantes 32 meninas e 34 meninos. O procedimento previu a coleta dos seus desenhos antes e depois de uma ação educativa gerontológica baseada na audição de livros infantis com personagens idosos. Caraterizada como uma pesquisa-ação, a investigação está vinculada a aspectos sociais e considera tanto os interesses científicos e acadêmicos das pesquisadoras quanto os sentidos que as crianças atribuem às pessoas idosas. Para a análise, de abordagem quali-quantitativa, características físicas, emoções, vestimentas, contexto, atividades e interação social foram correlacionadas ao gênero dos participantes. Diferenças significativas foram encontradas entre os gêneros, com destaque para as meninas que representaram uma velhice mais positiva. Os resultados sugerem a necessidade de novos olhares em relação a essas impressões.
Formação docente e a concepção de experiência em Dewey
Authors: Abreu Souza Ana Cristina Gonçalves , Feldmann Marina Graziela
Published: November 2022

Este artigo foi desenvolvido a partir de estudos bibliográficos sobre o conceito de experiência em Dewey promovendo uma articulação com a formação docente em uma perspectiva crítica do processo de construção do desenvolvimento da docência. A investigação do conceito de experiência deweyano é central para discutirmos as ações de formação que partam da singularidade dos professores. A construção do conceito de experiência e as relações com a construção da prática pedagógica docente nos permitem refletir sobre a formação dos professores, a partir de uma compreensão em que a experiência não comporta dicotomias, mas agrega dialeticamente a prática e a teoria que se compõem num processo permanente. Fazemos recortes sobre os aspectos teóricos de algumas obras de John Dewey e sua contribuição para refletirmos sobre a construção da prática pedagógica a partir do conceito de experiência objetivando o debate sobre o fortalecimento da prática pedagógica docente.

Cell culture is one of the most commonly used techniques in the production of biological products. Many physical and chemical parameters may affect cell growth and proliferation. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of chemical components as supplements using the experimental design method, which aimed at reducing the number of experiments. For this purpose, supplements including chemical components using four levels, with three replications in suspension and batch culture conditions, were examined for 72 hours using the Taguchi experimental design method. From the experiments, it was concluded that the culture media composition had a significant impact on final cell count and pH. High concentrations of different media composition alone were insufficient to ensure higher cell count. According to the results, this insufficiency was associated with an increase of 20% in the number of final cells. In the majority of cultures, the number of final cells at 48 hours increased relative to the number of final cells at 24 hours after culturing the cells.

Inadequate knowledge and negative attitudes are the major hindrances to prevent the spread of the human immunodeficiency virus. This study aims to assess the knowledge and attitude toward the human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immune deficiency syndrome among youths in Iran.

We conducted a systematic review, searching online databases until July 2018, focusing on knowledge and attitudes about the human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immune deficiency syndrome in Iranian youths. We included the studies that aimed to determine the knowledge and attitudes of people from Iran and were conducted in the last 18 years.

In total, 14 eligible papers (out of 300) were entered into the analysis, and the overall knowledge of Iranian youth toward the acquired immune deficiency syndrome was 57.6% (95% CI: 56.7%-58.5%). Also, the results of Cochran’s test showed the heterogeneity of the studies (Q=1578.2, df=13, I2=79.4%, p<0.001).

We concluded that our results would guide the development of population-focused knowledge and attitude about the human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immune deficiency syndrome in Iran, which is lacking among the general public and healthcare staff.

This study empirically illustrates the mechanism by which epidemiological effect measures and statistical evidence can be misleading in the presence of Simpson�s paradox and identify possible alternative methods of analysis to manage the paradox.

Three scenarios of observational study designs, including cross-sectional, cohort, and case-control approaches, are simulated. In each scenario, data are generated, and various methods of epidemiological and statistical analyses are undertaken to obtain empirical results that illustrate Simpson�s paradox and mislead conclusions. Rational methods of analysis are also performed to illustrate how to avoid pitfalls and obtain valid results.

In the presence of Simpson�s paradox, results from analyses in overall data contradict the findings from all subgroups of the same data. This paradox occurs when distributions of confounding characteristics are unequal in the groups being compared. Data analysis methods which do not take confounding factor into account, including epidemiological 2�2 table analysis, independent samples t-test, Wilcoxon rank-sum test, chi-square test, and univariable regression analysis, cannot manage the problem of Simpson�s paradox and mislead research conclusions. Mantel-Haenszel procedure and multivariable regression methods are examples of rational analysis methods leading to valid results.

Therefore, Simpson�s paradox arises as a consequence of extreme unequal distributions of a specific inherent characteristic in groups being compared. Analytical methods which take control of confounding effect must be applied to manage the paradox and obtain valid research evidence regarding the causal association.

Polyurethane nano- and micro-structures have been studied intensively in the last decade as drug delivery systems for various herbal extracts as well as pure active biological substances. Their biocompatibility, haemocompatibility, safe degradation, and low-cost production are just a few advantages of these materials that were already used in numerous medical applications (catheters, surgical drapes, wound dressing). The primary purposes of this study include obtaining empty polyurethane microstructures and the assessment of their modifications in media with different pH values. A mixture of two aliphatic diisocyanates and an aqueous phase based on a polyether were used during the synthesis process. The size, homogeneity, and surface charge were studied using a Cordouan Technol. Zetasizer, while the pH measurements were conducted with a portable pH Meter Checker®, Hanna Instruments. The results showed the obtaining of an almost homogeneous sample containing microstructures with sizes ranging between 139 and 151 nm, with a pH value of approximately 6.78 and a Zeta potential of 24.6. Expected decreases in microparticles’ sizes were observed in all types of media during a 15-days experiment, but the process was accelerated by a low pH when an increase of the Zeta potential value was noticed as well. Our data provide new information about the degradation process of the polyurethane microstructures on the one hand and the drug release rate of these materials when used as drug carriers, on the other hand.

The main goal of our study is the impact evaluation of complex urate-lowering therapy with the synbiotic addition on fecal microbiota and cytokine profile in patients with primary gout. During our study, 130 men (mean age 55.5 ± 9.4 years) with gout (duration 7.7 ± 7.1 years) were examined. All patients were divided into two treatment groups. The main group (n = 68) was taking allopurinol at 300 mg per day dose and additionally a synbiotic. The comparison group (n = 62) received allopurinol monotherapy without synbiotic intake. The therapy duration was 3 months. Evaluation of therapy efficiency was marked by blood uric acid changes, cytokine levels, CRP and fecal microbiota condition. After treatment, stabilization of the gut microbiota parameters was observed, which was leading to normalization uricemia levels (40.3% vs. 21%, p <0.01) in the main group patients. Addition of synbiotic to allopurinol leads to a blood uric acid lowering (18.7% vs. 13.3%, p <0.01), CRP reduction (75% vs. 26.3%, p <0.01) as well as decrease of cytokines level: IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and TNFα (all p <0.001). After a 3-month gout treatment, a group of patients who received complex therapy with synbiotic inclusion showed signs of disease remission characterized by inflammation activity reducing, fecal microbiota condition normalization and a more pronounced decrease in laboratory markers comparing to control group.

The study of the incidence of cryoglobulinemia is relevant in patients with an intestinal anastomotic leak. This study aims to determine a laboratory marker of the risk of small intestine anastomotic leak. The study was based on 96 patients who were subjected to resections of segments of the small intestine with the formation of intestinal anastomoses at the State Institution “Zaytsev V.T. Institute of General and Urgent Surgery of National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine”. Of all the operated patients, there were 55.2% women and 44.8% men. Of the 96 patients examined, cryoglobulinemia was detected in the majority – 62.5% of patients, of which 4 were later proved to have inactive hepatitis C; the remaining 38.5% had no cryoglobulinemia. According to the existing theory of the autoimmune mechanism of postoperative surgical complications formation, the revealed decrease in the level of cryoglobulins on the second day could be related to their fixation in the microcirculatory bed and the development of immunocomplex inflammation. While the increase in the content of cryoglobulins in serum on the third day can be caused by their entry into the circulatory bed from deposition or fixation sites and the development of a secondary immune response. In patients with intestinal anastomosis failure after resection of intestinal segments, cryoglobulinemia rates increased more than 80 mg/l; this indicator could be used as a marker of postoperative complications.

Prenatal testing has been moving towards non-invasive methods to determine fetal risk for genetic disorders. Numerous studies have focused the attention on common trisomies; although the detection rate (DR) for trisomy 21 is high (over 95%), the accuracy regarding the DR for trisomies 13 and 18 has come under scrutiny. The testing has been applied to sex chromosome aneuploidies, but many studies have shown that it is not as effective as it is for common trisomies. Although non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT) has become a standard screening procedure for all pregnant women, invasive sampling procedures remain important in confirming NIPT-positive findings. In the present study, we report discordant results of Turner syndrome (TS) mosaicism between NIPT and karyotyping. A 35-year-old pregnant woman underwent NIPT, and a probable risk for Xp deletion was indicated. Subsequently, amniocentesis was performed. The karyotype was identified as mos 45,X [28]/46,X,i(X)(q1.0)[5]. In the second case, a 33-year-old woman underwent amniocentesis after a positive NIPT that indicated a probable risk for monosomy X. The result was mos 45,X [8]/46,XY[8]. Since NIPT is a screening test, the possibility of false-positive or false-negative results should always be considered. We underline the importance of pre/post detailed counseling. Furthermore, women with abnormal NIPT results should undergo immediate amniocentesis that remains the only tool for a correct diagnosis of sex chromosome aneuploidies.
