Authors: Chen Yuena , Cheng Yan
Published: November 2024

Tourism English in higher vocational education has profound humanistic, strong professional orientation, and instrumental characteristics. Through analyzing the current situation of ideological and political teaching in Tourism English courses in higher vocational education, it is found that there are too few ideological and political elements in the curriculum, the skills teaching and ideological education are not unified, and the ideological and political education in the curriculum tends to be empty preaching. The reasons for this are the weak ideological and political awareness of teachers, the emphasis on skills in textbooks over ideological and political education, and the conservatism of teaching methods. Based on the requirements of curriculum ideological and political education and teaching reform, a teaching reform practice path is constructed from four aspects: anchoring curriculum ideological and political goals, improving teachers’ ideological and political awareness and educational ability, creating ideological and political-oriented textbook resources, and integrating ideological and political teaching methods through multiple channels throughout the entire process, in order to cultivate students with patriotism, international vision, and professional skills.

Authors: Alves Fabiana Bucholdz Teixeira , Pomini Marcos Cezar , Santos Paulo Sérgio da Silva , Chicrala Gabriela Moura , Soares Júnior Luiz Alberto Valente
Published: November 2024

Objective: To explore and map the literature on oral hygiene (OH) practices in pediatric patients admitted to Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICU). Methods: The Arksey and O’Malley’s five-stage methodological framework for scoping reviews was conducted using Pubmed, Bireme, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library databases. Clinical trials reporting OH practices in PICU and published in English language were included. Non-interventional studies, case reports and studies with neonates, adolescents or adults were excluded from the review. Results: The 11 included studies indicate that OH has been integrated into protocols for the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) or into prevention bundles. The most common agent used for OH in mechanically ventilated children was 0.12% chlorhexidine. There is not enough evidence to support a safe and uniform protocol for OH in children admitted to PICU. Conclusion: A gap regarding OH in non-ventilated children was found in the literature. Further studies are needed to support the development of a uniform, safe, effective and evidence-based OH protocol for children in PICU.

Authors: Loja Saetama María Gabriela
Published: November 2024

Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar los flujos comerciales bilaterales de Ecuador a nivel macroeconómico para un conjunto de 31 países en el periodo 1996 – 2018. Para implementar el modelo de gravedad, utilizamos como variables los flujos comerciales explicados por el Producto Interno Bruto (PIB) del país de origen y el PIB del país extranjero, así como la
distancia geográfica entre Ecuador y sus socios comerciales. Se consideraron tres modelos que son respectivamente primeras diferencias, efectos aleatorios y efectos fijos. El modelo en primeras diferencias es estimado mediante mínimos cuadrados ordinarios combinados, el modelo de efectos aleatorios es estimado mediante mínimos cuadrados generalizados y el modelo de efectos fijos con datos en el tiempo deducidos. Los principales resultados fueron que el PIB ecuatoriano y el PIB del
país de destino es una variable positivamente relacionada con los flujos comerciales, mientras que la distancia geográfica es
una variable inversamente proporcional. Estos resultados no se cumplen en los tres modelos expuestos a excepción del PIB
extranjero. Además, se comprobó que la dolarización no ha afectado el flujo comercial de Ecuador cumpliendo con la hipótesis
que menores exportaciones son compensadas por mayores importaciones. A su vez la variable tratados comerciales no resulta
estadísticamente significativa

Published: November 2024

Przyjrzałem się postawionemu przez Szkudlarka problemowi monopolu pieniądza, skupiając się na aspektach związanych z kultywowaniem wartości. Rozbijanie monopolu pieniądza może nie być konieczne do wywołania mobilizacji społecznej. Gdy przyjrzymy się czemu służy pieniądz, to pełni dwie funkcje: jest środkiem wymiany i narzędziem gromadzenia wartości. Szkudlarek pokazał, że istnieją procedury, które mogą zastąpić funkcję regulatora wymiany. W moich rozważaniach skierowałem uwagę na proceder, który mógłby pomóc w nadawaniu i dodawaniu wartości twórczym działaniom ludzi. Inspirowany lwowską szkołą matematyczną turniej z ekscentrycznymi nagrodami może okazać się efektywnym sposobem nadawania i kultywowania wartości.

Published: November 2024

Acid treatment is commonly used to enhance the production capacity of wells drilled in carbonate deposits. However, field outcomes of this procedure may vary significantly. Current approaches to acid treatment design rely on advanced software tools that evaluate major acidizing factors. Machine learning is a valuable complement to the existing techniques: it facilitates the selection of target wells and aids in defining initial parameters for design engineering on reliable and effective software platforms. This study examines potential applications of machine learning in target selection based on the history of treatment outcomes influenced by the initial well conditions, operational conditions, treatment frequency, acid volumes, acid system types, pretreatment strategies, acid system diverters, and acid residence time. Acid treatment design requires complex laboratory work to investigate the kinetics of acid-rock interactions determined by the mineral composition of the rock formation and the chemical properties of the acid system, including the concentrations of its components. The problem of predicting the reaction kinetics of acid systems by processing an array of laboratory data using machine learning methods, specifically linear regression and random forest methods, was discussed. It was demonstrated that the incorporation of machine learning enables the development of robust decision-making algorithms that optimize acid treatment by considering its multifactorial effects. These algorithms significantly simplify the tasks of acid treatment design.

Authors: Siddaraju Chikkalingaiah , Nagaraju Rajendraprasad
Published: November 2024

Two potentiometric sensors, referred to as ion-selective electrodes (ISE)-A and ISE-B, were constructed and validated to quantify the flutamide (FA) in drug formulations, extended to analyse human urine samples infused with drugs. Bromocresol green and bromophenol blue were used as ion-pair complexing agents in the construction of ISE-A and ISE-B, respectively. Dibutyl phthalate served as a plasticizer within a polyvinyl chloride matrix, with tetrahydrofuran as the solvent. The methods demonstrated linearity over the ranges of 2.5 x 10-6 to 2 x 10-3 M and 5 x 10-6 to 1.8 x 10-3 M for ISE-A and ISE-B, respectively. The Nernstian slop of 58.8 ± 0.96 and 62.11 ± 0.83 were exhibited by the proposed methods employing ISE-A and ISE-B, respectively, within a response time of 25 seconds and were effective for the analysis of FA over a period of 52 days within a pH range of 1.0 to 4.2. The coefficient of determination (R2) was very close to one, indicating an excellent fit between the actual and measured data. For ISE-A, the computed limits of detection and quantification were 0.82 x 10-6 M and 2.45 x 10-6 M, respectively, and 1.64 x 10-6 M and 4.86 x 10-6 M for ISE-B. The ICH recommendations were followed during the validation process, which evaluated the methodologies' robustness, ruggedness, sensitivity, accuracy, precision, and selectivity.

Published: November 2024

Problem statement. Ensuring the safety of nuclear power plants is one of the main issues of Ukraine's national security. The operation of operating nuclear power units in Ukraine has always been associated with the risk of radiation leakage into the soil, rivers or the atmosphere. Since the late 2000s, the power industry has faced a significant challenge: ‘How to extend the regulatory operation and prolong the use of biological protection of the units?’ There are 15 nuclear power units in operation in the country, three ChNPP units are being decommissioned in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone, and Unit 4, together with the Shelter and the new safe confinement, is in the process of being transformed into an environmentally safe system. Ukraine has a number of facilities with spent nuclear fuel, radioactive waste and ionising radiation sources. In addition, radiation technologies are used in industry, medicine, science and other sectors. The purpose of the article − analysis of the technical condition and operation of Ukrainian nuclear power units and consideration of the issue of assessing the physical deterioration of NPP unit structures and measures aimed at improving their operational safety. To further improve the level of safety of power units, reduce the risks of accidents at NPPs during natural disasters or other extreme situations, improve the efficiency of managing design and beyond-design basis accidents at NPPs, and minimise their consequences. Conclusion. The considered issues on lifetime extension of power units in operation in Ukraine are highly relevant. The issue of extending the life of biological protection of nuclear power units, taking into account national and international experience, allows to continue operation of a nuclear power plant without shutdown and mothballing. Taking into account the actual state of the building structures of the units, an improved control system was proposed that allows assessing the risks of abnormal and emergency situations during the operation of power unit equipment and eliminating violations during scheduled design and repair work.

In recent years, the state of safety and working conditions at Ukrainian production facilities has continued to be difficult and dangerous, especially at construction companies (one of the ten most injury-prone industries), as evidenced by official statistics on occupational injuries, while Ukraine is living in a state of war. Huge sums of money from the state reserve funds, the Pension Fund, and the owners of enterprises themselves are spent on eliminating the consequences of industrial accidents, accidents, occupational diseases, and on helping victims and families of those killed at work. Ukraine has adopted many laws and regulations on occupational health and safety, including those that, in accordance with the Association Agreement between Ukraine, on the one hand, and the European Union, the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, on the other hand, have adapted Ukrainian legislation to that of the European Union, within the framework of which work is actively underway to implement a risk-based approach at the state level in the system of managing the economic safety and health of employees who are citizens of Ukraine. Business leaders (employers) understand the responsibility for the life and health of employees, the need to create proper, safe and healthy working conditions, and care about the economic development of the business, despite the high risks of today's hazards. Objective. To analyze the most effective ways of economic impact of occupational health and safety regulation, taking into account the risk-oriented approach, while maintaining the economic development of the company.  Conclusion. The analysis of the most effective ways of economic impact of occupational health and safety regulation, taking into account the risk-oriented approach, shows that in the current conditions of development of enterprises in our country, it is difficult to find a universal solution that would simultaneously meet the requirements for the budget for financing occupational health and safety measures, the speed and quality of its implementation, and at the same time reduce risks in the field of occupational health and safety at workplaces. Therefore, it is difficult to predict which of these ways plays a primary role and which are acceptable, and how to ensure the efficiency of the entire system. Professional, comprehensive occupational health and safety cost planning will help to find the perfect balance between the measures taken and their economic benefits.  The complexity of applying several options for economic regulation of occupational health and safety will allow the company to operate smoothly, without conflicts and have a sustainable operation, which will allow for economic growth, the organization's development strategy for the near future, and will also reduce risks in the field of occupational health and safety by taking effective preventive measures.

Problem statement.Monolithic construction is one of the most common and most effective methods of building and construction. The introduction of the latest technologies in this type of construction will improve the quality and speed of work, reduce costs, and increase labor safety. In this regard, the research of traditional and the search for new innovative solutions in monolithic construction becomes an urgent problem of modern times. One of the key problems in monolithic construction is the lack of mobile and easy-to-install scaffolding. Purpose of the study. The purpose of the research is the development of new and improvement of existing structural and technological solutions for the arrangement of monolithic construction, which would meet modern construction requirements. Methodology. Analytical research on the use of modern technologies in monolithic construction, a systematic study of mobile scaffolding as a technology for improving monolithic construction, analysis and synthesis of available data, comparison of the arrangement of different types of scaffolding. Results. Given the rapid development of monolithic construction and the changing means and methods of construction work at construction sites, the problem of the lack of mobile and easy-to-assemble scaffolding that could be used in hard-to-reach places was identified. A design and technological solution for mobile scaffolding has been developed, which contributes to increasing safety and economic efficiency in the construction industry. Scientific novelty. The design and technological solution has been improved, taking into account the features of the installation of structures in particularly difficult places and meeting the demands of modern developers, optimizing the methods and means of construction work. Practical significance. The introduction of new technologies in monolithic construction makes it possible to improve the quality of construction work, reduce costs, and increase worker safety. The improvement of new scaffolding designs will allow for the effective use of the builder's workplace during construction and ensure proper working conditions in hard-to-reach places.

В подзоне светло-каштановых тяжелосуглинистых почв Волгоградской области в период 2019 – 2023 гг. подробно проанализировано влияние различных предшественников на рост и развитие зернового сорго, а также на его продуктивность и качество урожая. Обсуждается практика использования соломы как органического ресурса, который способствует улучшению структуры почвы, увеличению содержания гумуса и активизации микробиологической активности. Исследованы механизмы, через которые солома влияет на агрофизические и агрохимические свойства почвы, что в свою очередь содействует повышению устойчивости сорго к неблагоприятным климатическим условиям и биотическим стрессорам. Оценена интеграция данных методов в системы севооборотов и подчеркнута их роль в повышении биологической активности агроэкосистем. Результаты опытов показали положительное воздействие предшественников и соломы на продуктивность зернового сорго. Рекомендации по оптимальному использованию данных приёмов могут служить основой для повышения устойчивости и экологической безопасности производства, а также для реализации принципов устойчивого земледелия и эффективного использования ресурсов.

Охарактеризованы среднеспелые сорта и гибриды капусты белокочанной по урожайности, основным показателям продуктивности и адаптивности на основе результатов их испытания за 2020 – 2022 гг. в северной лесостепной зоне Тюменской области. Вариабельность условий среды в годы испытания привела к смене рангов сортов и гибридов по уровню урожайности, что указывает на значительный эффект генотип-средового взаимодействия. Наибольшая средняя урожайность за 2020 – 2022 гг. отмечена у гибрида Квашня F1 — 80,1 т/га. Реализация потенциала урожайности сортов и гибридов варьировала от 74,6 (СБ 3 F1) до 96,1 % (Теннесити F1). Стрессоустойчивость — низкая у большинства сортов и гибридов, наибольшая отмечена у гибрида Теннесити F1 (–6,0). За исключением гибрида Теннесити F1, все сорта и гибриды характеризовались значительной вариабельностью урожайности, от 21,8 (Аструс плюс F1) до 31,3 % (Тропикана F1). Сильная отзывчивость на изменение условий выявлена у гибридов Квашня F1 (bi = 1,39), СБ 3 F1 (bi = 1,33) и Тропикана F1 (bi = 1,17), что позволяет отнести их к интенсивным. Стабильность урожайности всех сортов и гибридов — низкая, наиболее высокая отмечена у гибрида Теннесити F1 (St2 = 1,00). Основные показатели продуктивности лучшими были у гибрида СБ 3 F1. По комплексу показателей лучшими в исследуемых условиях, исходя из суммы рангов, признаны гибриды Аструс плюс F1, Квашня F1 и СБ 3 F1.
