PERHITUNGAN KEBUTUHAN IRIGASI PEMBIBITAN BATANG BAWAH KARET BERDASARKAN NERACA AIR DI SEMBAWA SUMATERA SELATAN
Authors: Cahyo Andi Nur , Stevanus Charlos Togi , Syafaah Afdholiatus
Published: December 2020

Kebutuhan bibit unggul karet pada tahun 2019 – 2024 yang mencapai 83-85 juta per tahun melalui progam Bun 500 Direktorat Jenderal Perkebunan menjadi peluang usaha bagi penyedia bahan tanam karet. Untuk itu penangkar bibit harus mengupayakan agar pertumbuhan bibit karet menjadi optimal. Kebutuhan air merupakan salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi pertumbuhan batang bawah sehingga kebutuhan irigasi di pembibitan karet perlu diperhitungkan dengan cermat. Kebutuhan irigasi suatu lahan dapat dihitung menggunakan neraca air lahan yang diperoleh dari data curah hujan dan evapotranspirasi potensial selama 35 tahun terakhir. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui kebutuhan irigasi bersih untuk batang bawah karet menggunakan neraca air sehingga defisit air dapat dihindari. Berdasarkan hasil analisis kurva pF untuk tanah lempung berliat di Sembawa dengan menggunakan nilai MAD 30%, diketahui bahwa kandungan air tanah harus selalu di atas 291,4 mm agar tanaman karet tidak mengalami cekaman kekeringan. Berdasarkan perhitungan neraca air dengan menggunakan rerata iklim 35 tahun terakhir di daerah Sembawa, pada tahun normal penurunan kandungan air tanah masih dalam batas management allowable depletion, sehingga tidak perlu dilakukan irigasi. Sebaliknya pada saat fenomena El-Nino terjadi pada tahun 2015, irigasi bersih harus diberikan minimum sebesar 11,3; 59,2; dan 76,5 mm/bulan untuk bulan Agustus, September, dan Oktober berturut-turut. Untuk tahun 2020, hingga bulan Agustus irigasi diperkirakan tidak perlu diberikan.
The African Peace and Security Architecture as a Tool for the Maintenance of Peace and Security. Part 2
Authors: Gardachew Bewuketu Dires
Published: December 2020

This study critically explores the extent to which the African Peace and Security Architecture (APSA) (such as the African Standby Force (ASF), the Continental Early Warning System (CEWS), Panel of the Wise (PoW) and the Peace Fund (PF)) have been successful in achieving their institutional objectives, as well as the degree to which they are able to contribute to the work of the African Union Peace and Security Council (AU PSC). The AU PSC as a key pillar of the APSA is the main decision-making body regarding issues of peace and security. In order to achieve its responsibility, the AU PSC shall be supported by the African Standby Force, the Continental Early Warning System, Panel of the Wise and the Peace Fund. APSA is the umbrella term for the key African Union (AU) mechanisms for promoting peace, security and stability in the African continent. More specifically, it is an operational structure for the effective implementation of the decisions taken in the areas of conflict prevention, peace-making, peace support operations and intervention, as well as peace-building and post-conflict reconstruction. APSA is envisioned as a means by which Africa can take a greater role in managing peace and security on the continent, with the objective of offering African solutions to African problems.

Student-oriented Learning and “Living Values” of the University: Strategic Interaction
Authors: Kulikovskaya Galina A. , Kulikovskaya Nina A.
Published: December 2020

The purpose of the article is to consider possible ways to improve the effectiveness of student-oriented education in Russian universities through strategic interaction with the basic principles of their life. It is well known that the involvement of students in the management of higher education institutions (HEIs), their active participation in determining the individual trajectories of their professional training increases the motivation of students, and therefore the quality of education. To do this, it is necessary not only to fix the principles of student self-government in the local regulations of the University, but also to build mechanisms for implementing these principles. In particular, this can be expressed in the structure and content of educational programs developed in accordance with educational standards, consisting of a mandatory part and a part formed by participants in educational relations. Project-based learning will help bridge the gap between theory and practice in teaching students. Inclusive education should be provided not only with infrastructure, but also with special training of teachers and the inclusion of specialized adaptation modules in educational programs. To ensure quality control of students ' knowledge, the professional level of teachers and the organization of the educational process, intra-University quality management systems for training specialists are being created.an important element of this system should also be the structure of student self-government. It is also necessary to understand that student-oriented learning is not limited to the educational process, but covers the organization of campus life, the possibility of self-realization of students in various public organizations, in creative teams, i.e. it is inextricably linked to the entire system of principles, goals, priorities - the Living Values of the University. In the context of improving the competitiveness of education in Russian universities, the article identifies and justifies ways to improve the effectiveness of student-oriented learning. In particular, there was a high demand for the possibility of students influence on their individual learning paths, self-realization through participation in projects, both in the educational process and in public life. The research uses the results of sociological research based on surveys of students and teachers, including online surveys, as well as the practice of organizing the educational process and extracurricular activities in Russian universities. The results obtained can be used to further improve the development strategies of higher education institutions, including to increase their attractiveness for foreign students.

Os cárceres da Guanabara através do jornal Ultima Hora (1960-1961)
Authors: Antonio Mariana Dias
Published: December 2020

O presente artigo busca analisar quatro séries de reportagens sobre alguns presídios do estado da Guanabara publicadas pelo jornal carioca Ultima Hora entre 1960 e 1961. Os anos escolhidos compreendem a criação de um novo estado, a eleição de Carlos Lacerda como governador, a reorganização dos serviços de segurança pública, a renúncia de um presidente da República e tentativas de barrar sua sucessão legal, resultando em diversos ruídos possíveis do campo político sobre o campo jornalístico. Não obstante, deve-se pontuar que Carlos Lacerda já apresentava um longo histórico de conflitos com o jornal Ultima Hora, levando a uma ferrenha oposição do jornal ao longo de sua gestão. Cientes desse cenário e dos diversos ruídos possíveis, nossa análise prioriza as formas e alterações de enquadramento jornalístico sobre os presídios, detentos, agentes prisionais e policiais, bem como o Poder Público de forma ampla. A análise revela, ao mesmo tempo, mudanças nas representações coletivas sobre esses assuntos e permanências históricas de arbitrariedades policiais, usualmente associadas ao contexto autoritário posterior a 1964, bem como as denúncias que eclodiriam em 1963 quanto ao extermínio de moradores de rua.

O início do século XIX no Brasil é marcado por um processo de grande ruptura estrutural, a quebra do antigo sistema colonial, que se materializa especialmente após a trasladação da corte portuguesa, em 1808. As alterações sociais, econômicas e políticas vivenciadas à época tiveram nos escritos, impressos e manuscritos, uma importante ferramenta na disseminação de ideias, notícias, culturas políticas, bem como num rearranjo de comportamentos sociais por meio de novas formas de sociabilidades e que perpassavam as alterações que ocorriam entre os âmbitos privado e público daquela sociedade. Tudo isso sob a vigilância da coroa através da censura, um instrumento que enfrentava as dificuldades práticas e logísticas de seu tempo.
“Que fiquemos livres da jurisdição dos bispos do Maranhão”
Authors: Sales João Vitor Araújo , Sousa Neto Marcelo de
Published: December 2020

A presente pesquisa analisa os discursos em prol da emancipação do Piauí em relação ao governo episcopal do Maranhão, no recorte temporal de 1829 a 1838, período em que se identificou forte investida de grupos piauienses em busca da constituição de uma diocese autônoma. Em um contexto no qual a província do Piauí encontrava-se subordinada ao bispado do Maranhão, desde 1728, se observaram as investidas de grupos que compunham a elite econômica e política piauiense para separar os governos espirituais das duas províncias, expressos nos documentos do Conselho Geral de Governo e da Assembleia Provincial. A narrativa construída em defesa da criação da diocese do Piauí foi elaborada de forma a denunciar prejuízos econômicos e espirituais à Província e ressaltar benefícios que a separação traria, inspirados nos exemplos eclesiais de Goiás e Cuiabá. Entretanto, o lastro documental analisado, centrado na documentação produzida pelo executivo e legislativo piauiense do recorte, denotam o forte desejo das lideranças econômicas e políticas locais em atender conveniências internas, fruto de uma complexa organização matri-patrimonial estabelecida sobre uniões endogâmicas, que, por meio de uma diocese autônoma, encontrar-se-ia livre das custas e embargos impostos pela administração clerical maranhense.
Rever a colonização, reler a biopolítica, almejar o poder
Authors: Briskievicz Danilo Arnaldo
Published: December 2020

A visão das elites nacionais sobre os bandeirantes paulistas do século XVIII nas minas gerais é centrada na noção de vocação e missão para a construção de uma nação livre, politicamente moderna e progressista. Propomos uma releitura da função política dos bandeirantes na modernidade colonial capitaneada pela Coroa portuguesa e seu Governo-geral no Brasil em torno da discussão sobre biopolítica, poder disciplinar, poder e violência, autoridade e violação dos corpos. De maneira geral, a noção de gesto pedagógico colonial nos convida a rever as biografias sob outro viés histórico, o de submissão; de maneira específica, mostramos como os bandeirantes paulistas, porta-vozes ferozes da biopolítica metropolitana não apenas promoviam a colonização centrada na violência, mas criavam um modus operandi estruturador do jogo político autoritário, legado este ainda reverberado nos dias atuais. A partir de metodologia de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, histórica e política (Foucault e Arendt), revelamos o intrincado jogo de intenções políticas entre bandeirantes e a Coroa portuguesa, marcado pela atuação social desses personagens, com múltiplos conflitos e interesses, em que a morte e o assassinato faziam parte do processo de forma corrente. O resultado do estudo mostra que a história colonial brasileira guarda profundamente em sua tradição política a confusão entre poder e violência, autoridade e violação, herdada culturalmente por capilarizados mecanismos da reprodução da biopolítica.
O corpo da criança nas tramas da biopolítica
Authors: Costa Júnior José dos Santos
Published: December 2020

O texto problematiza a emergência histórica do corpo infantil na Paraíba entre as décadas de 1940 e 1950 como o efeito de um dispositivo médico-pedagógico-assistencial, partindo da descrição e análise enunciativa do boletim da comissão estadual da Legião Brasileira de Assistência (LBA). Para isto, articula tal periódico com outras narrativas e saberes da época para inquirir as suas condições de possibilidade. Mobiliza-se um conjunto de fotografias, dados demográficos e textos presentes no periódico a fim de desenhar os contornos de uma genealogia da criança como sujeito de certos cuidados e investimentos socioeconômicos. A entrada do país na Segunda Guerra Mundial (1939-1945) gerou o cenário para redesenhar as políticas sociais com foco na infância e maternidade. Localmente, a Paraíba passava por transformações na gestão pública com o interventor Ruy Carneiro e a racionalização da administração. Tal projeto gerou conflitos com a Igreja católica no que dizia respeito ao tratamento de questões sociais como maternidade e infância, tratadas a partir de então pela primeira-dama Alice Carneiro na ótica da filantropia e não mais da caridade. Para pensar os conflitos e tensões que marcaram o processo em que a infância e o corpo da criança foram tomados como objetos de políticas específicas, mobiliza-se, metodologicamente, as ferramentas de Michel Foucault sobre a analítica do poder em interface com as formulações conceituais de Thomas Lemke e Laura Bazzicalupo sobre biopolítica, bem como as reflexões de Jacques Rancière e Georges Didi-Huberman sobre a historicidade das imagens. Analisa-se, portanto, as estratégias de captura e produção do corpo infantil na esfera pública, articulando-se a “disciplina” (anatomopolítica do corpo humano) e a regulação (biopolítica da população) para construir um projeto nacional.
Corpos ultrajantes, discursos interditos
Authors: Gomes Romulo Gabriel de Barros
Published: December 2020

O presente texto apresenta a trajetória de embates entre as produções cinematográficas denominadas comumente por pornochanchadas – produções de baixo orçamento, forte apelo humorístico e sexual – e a censura federal durante a ditadura civil-militar brasileira. Vistas muitas vezes como inimigas do discurso público de moral e bons costumes que representava o estado, estas acarretaram, por parte dos sujeitos produtores, o desenvolvimento de estratégias para driblar a censura federal. Ora estas disputas favoreceram produtores, ora censores, mas no foco destes embates encontrava-se quase que invariavelmente a disputa pela hegemonia discursiva e pelo lugar de fala que tinham como palco a grande tela do cinema e sua reconhecida capacidade como ferramenta de propagação de valores culturais e normatização de costumes. Na análise ora apresentada enfoca-se no enredo amplamente conflitante desta pretensa normalidade encontrado no longa-metragem Mulher Tentação (1982) dirigido por Ody Fraga e produzido por David Cardoso.  Para esta análise utiliza-se como aporte teórico os escritos de Michel Foucault, especialmente as suas noções de biopoder, normatividade, controle dos corpos e exercício de poder. Tem-se então o objetivo de evidenciar os múltiplos vetores que conformam poderes e contrapoderes, bem como observar como estas disputas marcam corpos, costumes e culturas.
"Em nome da pátria e da glória”
Authors: Silva Wellington Barbosa da
Published: December 2020

Em fins de 1864, o Brasil entrou em um longo e penoso conflito contra o Paraguai. Como os recursos bélicos (tanto materiais quanto humanos) eram escassos, o governo imperial lançou mão de todos meios ao seu alcance para arregimentar tropas e enviá-las para o teatro de operações: convocou a Guarda Nacional, intensificou o recrutamento forçado para o Exército e, apelando para o patriotismo dos cidadãos, criou os corpos de Voluntários da Pátria. Esperava-se que os homens aptos em pegar em armas cumprissem ao pé da letra o preceito constitucional de garantir a Independência e a integridade do Império, defendendo-o dos seus inimigos externos ou internos. Em um momento conturbado como esse, palavras como pátria, patriota, patriótico e patriotismo, ocuparam o vocabulário dos cidadãos – embora o alcance do significado de cada uma dessas palavras fosse bem limitado, variando de região para região dentro de uma mesma província. Partindo de uma análise da evolução semântica da palavra pátria e a sua utilização em um momento de guerra, bem como de uma pesquisa de base empírica realizada em jornais, relatórios de presidente de província e documentos legados por outras autoridades, este artigo tem como objetivo principal discutir as práticas discursivas e simbólicas que nortearam a formação do 1.º Corpo de Voluntários da Pátria em Pernambuco, no ano de 1865.
As instituições de reclusão e “controle” dos loucos na Parahyba do Norte entre 1889 e 1928
Authors: Araújo Edna Maria Nóbrega , Meneses Joedna Reis de
Published: December 2020

No final do século XIX e primeiras décadas do século XX a cidade da Parahyba do Norte, influenciada pelas ideias de modernidade e civilização, vivenciou uma série de reformas no espaço físico bem como diversas transformações nos costumes, hábitos e cotidiano de sua população. Essas reformas buscaram “retirar" e “excluir” das áreas centrais da cidade aqueles que eram tidos como responsáveis por promover a “desordem”. Tratava-se de destruir desde edificações fora do chamado alinhamento e/ou excluir e, se possível, silenciar historicamente, os pobres, menores abandonados, mendigos e loucos que perambulavam pelas ruas. Neste artigo, se pretende estudar, especificamente, as tentativas de exclusão dos indivíduos considerados loucos das ruas da cidade da Parahyba do Norte, bem como a psicopolítica da exclusão. Para tanto, foram pesquisadas fontes como os Relatórios dos Presidentes de Estado/Província, Relatório da Santa Casa de Misericórdia e Jornais da época. Buscou-se historicizar as tentativas de controle dos ditos “furiosos” na Cadeia Pública, na Santa Casa da Misericórdia, posteriormente, no asilo Sant’Anna e, por fim, no hospital Colônia Juliano Moreira, quando os médicos psiquiatras puderam exercer um saber/poder nas instituições, pautados nos discursos científicos, que enclausurava, vigiava e silenciava os rotulados com a marca da loucura.
Sustainability ratings and corporate control: Debacle of shareholder over stakeholder theory
Authors: Malik Chirag , Yadav Sonali
Published: December 2020

Corporate sustainability rating is frequently observed by different stakeholders, thereby finding interest in academic studies as well. Shareholders of sustainable-companies respond to different types of stock market news, be it financial or non-financial news. Announcements relating to ratings obtained by sustainability-compliant businesses appear to create anticipation in the mind of the investor. If these announcements are viewed by investors with interest, then it can have a greater implication for corporate governance and control and the corporate leaders can find a clear path to resolve the much debated “shareholder” versus “stakeholder” view in decision-making. This paper aims to explain whether or not the declaration of sustainability ratings contributes to the stock market reaction in emerging markets such as India. Short-run event analysis was carried out on a set of selected BSE listed companies following sustainable practice (2017-2019) and the entire data set was split into categories of the upgrade, downgrade, no change, and no ratings. The study results show that the announcement of sustainability ratings is not regarded by investors with a great deal of interest and there is inherent indifference to such news in the stock market. These findings are relevant for stock exchanges, investors, and corporate control as it raises a serious issue of rethinking stakeholder awareness levels, which in an emerging economy such as India currently seem to be in a nascent stage. In order to meet the stakeholders interested in the process of business becoming sustainable corporate leaders through proper governance should explore ways and means to approach sustainability in a more systematic way

Objective The main objective of this paper is to compare the performance
of logistic regression and decision tree classification methods and to
find the significant environment determinants that causes pre-term
birth. Design, setting and population Between 2017 to 2018, 90 pregnant
females underwent birth outcome followed by research staff at our
institutions, out of those 50 are full-term and 40 are preterm births in
this study. Method Before and after feature selection logistic
regression and decision tree classifier model has been compared in this
dataset and to evaluate the model accuracy. Main outcome measures
Preforming the accuracy of machine learning classification model and
important factors on pre-term birth. Results: Using chi-square test and
find the Area of residence and GSH, MDA, α-HCH, total HCH and total DDT
are responsible for the preterm birth. Using the multiple logistic
regression, pre term birth was associated with MDA and α-HCH (95% CI
0.04 to 0.48 and 95% CI 0.82 to 0.97). The logistic and decision tree
model comparison result shows that logistic regression is better in
terms of metrics (precision = 0.92, F1-score = 0.96 and AUROC = 0.97),
while decision tree performs the poor (precision = 0.75, F1-score = 0.86
and AUROC = 0.87). Conclusions The logistic regression is accurate model
to predict the pre-term as compare to decision tree method. The
variables like α-HCH , total HCH and MDA (Malondialdehyde) are the most
influential factors for preterm birth.
Electrome & Cognition Modes in Plants: A Transdisciplinary Approach to the Eco-Sensitiveness of the World
Authors: Debono Marc-Williams
Published: December 2020

Recent studies on plant-environment and plant-human relationships reveal the need to reassess thescales of perception, sensitiveness and cognition of living systems. The complexity of plant's emergingbehaviors in interaction with the environment is supported by the signature of the electrome and theplant sensorium, a strong argument to establish the singularity of the living and weights its consequencesin evolutionary, ecological or socioeconomic terms. This paper highlights the cognitive value of access tothe experience of plants and its fundamentally mesological or ecoplastic nature, that is to say in directconnection with a singular milieu. This dynamic coupling makes it possible to explain the co-construction ofan intelligible and sensible world without the use of a brain, principle that reframes the concept of intelligentbehavior while revealing both the frontiers in cognition and the strong transdisciplinary challenges of anacute awareness of the man's fragility as of the planetary ecosystem at the era of the Antropocene.

Published: December 2020

Objective: To quantify and
contextualize the risk for COVID-19 related hospitalization and illness
severity in type 1 diabetes.

Research Design and Methods: We
conducted a prospective cohort study to identify COVID-19 cases across a regional
healthcare network of 137 service locations. Using an electronic health record
query, chart review, and patient contact, we identified clinical factors influencing
illness severity.

Results: We identified COVID-19 in 6,138,
40, and 273 patients without diabetes and with type 1 and type 2 diabetes,
respectively. Compared with not having diabetes, people with type 1 diabetes had
adjusted odds ratios (ORs) of 3.90 (95% CI 1.75-8.69) for hospitalization and
3.35 (95% CI 1.53-7.33) for greater illness severity, which was similar to risk
in type 2 diabetes. Among type 1
diabetes patients, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), hypertension, race, recent
diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), health insurance status, and less diabetes
technology use were significantly associated with illness severity.

Conclusions: Diabetes status, both type 1 and type 2, independently
increases the adverse impacts of COVID-19. Potentially modifiable factors
(e.g., HbA1c) had significant but modest impact compared to comparatively
static factors (e.g. race, insurance) in type 1 diabetes indicating an urgent
and continued need to mitigate SARS-CoV-2 infection risk in this community.
ANALYSIS OF THE GENRE PALETTE F. KIESLER’S CREATIVE ACTIVITIES
Authors:   Lviv Polytechnic National University, Department of Architectural Environment Design, K. Yanchuk , T. Harashchak ,   Lviv Polytechnic National University, Department of Architectural Environment Design
Published: December 2020

Kiesler’s art was not based on the theory of form, color, and means; his art was not a political instrument to comment on the state of society, and he did not consider his art to be the product of a scientific process, a result that contained a truth that was absolute. He believed that his art revealed a truth that science could not see, and that truth was the key to a “core” existence. He believed that his process and his ritual were attacked by the deceptive beliefs of others. “A revived art that has been stolen from a warm embrace, freezing in its nakedness, cooled by the sweat of its forehead, desperately needs a new cloak so as not to freeze to death.” Kiesler’s environmental and galactic art, like its endless architecture, was warm clothing for art that desperately needed warmth.

The urban environment of developing cities requires more and more residential dwellings and workplaces. Expanding the city into the new, undeveloped territory is a tired and comprehensive method of expansion. In the existing framework of cities, there is an abundance of inefficiently used space in the guise of blank walls. London and Lviv are examples of cities which are guilty of this. Even though the two cities have developed their own architectural, cultural, economic, and social traditions, they still share the same potential to increase their density without sacrificing the comfort of their citizens. In the process of renovating existing developments, we have met with new possibilities of integrating new typologies, which can enrich the environment and city. This concept is a proposal for densifying the city using underutilized spaces while enrichening the environment.

Published: December 2020

theatrical and entertainment buildings, designed by teachers and students of the Department of architectural environmental design, Institute of Architecture, National University of Lviv Polytechnic. Nowadays, the theater architectural industry in Ukraine that specializes in youth audiences and students has no clear answer to the question of what the architecture of contemporary theater for children and young people should be and what functional colors and scenographic palette it should include. The theatrical architecture of buildings for children and youth in modern Ukraine continues to be a copy of the building since the Soviet Union. At the beginning of the 21st century nothing new appeared except analogs of the Theater of Young Spectators and the Puppet Theater of the former era. The analysis of more than 25 projects of all ranks has shown that most of them are based not only on the ideas of architects of the second half of the twentieth century but also those that made up a network of cultural and educational, theatrical and spectacular buildings in the former USSR. However, in recent years the projects of the Lviv School of Architecture, and especially after the creation of the Department of Architectural Environmental Design, have changed direction towards finding solutions for the architecture of the future. Evidence of the results of both educational, competitive design and the creation of special courses that reanimate the ideas of the architecture of futurists of the twentieth century - F. Kiesler, I. Leonidov and other architects of futurists in the applied sphere A. Quarmby, K. Tange, B. Fuller and those engaged in the search for architecture, which is at least partially called the architecture of the future - G. Holmin, Wolf D. Prix, G. Krieger. The materials of the article highlight the main principles of designing cultural and educational, theatrical, and entertainment centers in the 21st century. The author outlines the factors that continue to harm the future development of cultural and educational, theatrical, and entertainment centers in Ukraine. Highlighted experience of designing search, educational and competition projects on the example of the activity of the Department of architectural environmental design proves that it can find application in the applied architectural and construction industry of the country as a whole.

Comparison of Large-bore Intercostal Catheter and Small-Bore Ambulatory Pleural Drain in the Management of Pleural Effusion
Authors: E. Ekpe E. , F. Uduma , V. Umoh , MC. Ikpe , C. Eyo , AF. Akpan
Published: December 2020

Background: The use of conventional chest tube and underwater seal bottle (CCT) for pleural drainage (PD) makes the treatment expensive, immediately un-affordable by more than 80% of the patients in Nigeria, and also immobilizes the patients with the attendant risks. To curtail the above mentioned problems, some researchers have reported the use of one-way valve and drainage bag for PD.

Objective: To evaluate and compare PD using urobag versus CCT

Methodology: Prospective randomized study of adult patients with pleural effusion who had PD with CCT and urobag respectively.

Results: Before PD and at 30 minutes into the drainage, no patient in the two groups had normal respiratory rate (RR), but by 30 minutes before removal of the pleural drain, 80.5% in the CCT group and 69.2% in the urobag group had achieved normal RR. And by the 30 days follow up assessment, 100% in both groups maintained normal RR (p=0.459). The equivalent figures evaluating the patients for peripheral arterial oxygen saturation showed subnormal saturation in all patients in the two groups at 30 minutes before PD, normal saturation in 22% of patients in CCT group versus zero percent in the urobag group at 30 minutes after commencement of PD (p<0.0001). At 30 minutes before removal of pleural drain saturation was normal in 97.6% of the CCT and 84.6% of the urobag group. By 30 days follow up, saturation became normal in 97.6% of CCT group versus 100% of urobag group.

Lung expansion assessed with chest radiographs at 30 minutes before pleural drainage showed that no patient in the two groups had fully expanded lung. However at 30 minutes after pleural drainage 46.3% in the CCT group versus 53.8% in the urobag group had complete lung expansion. These figures rose to 97.6% and 100% respectively at 30 minutes before removal of pleural drain and at 30 days follow-up (p=0.823). Duration of drainage of pleural effusion was less than 7 days in 92.7% of patients on CCT and in 92.3% of the urobag group. Length of hospital stay analysis showed that length of stay was shorter than 10 days in 97.6% and 100% of the CCT and urobag groups respectively. Complications attributable to the drainage systems were negligible.

Conclusion: Pleural drainage with urobag and CCT all result in acceptable outcome of drainage.

Essay on the History of the Democracy in Russia (10th–12th centuries)
Authors:  Perevezentsev Sergey V.
Published: December 2020

The idea of democracy plays one of the leading roles in contemporary Russian political discourse. Still nowadays a lot of Russian people perceive the idea of democracy as something foreign and borrowed, derived from the outside, furthermore even the word “democracy” very often carries negative associations. Each people, country and civilization has the right to independently decide the issue of their political system on the basis of their own specific historical experience and not accept theoretical schemes and models imposed from the outside. Russia has also its own historical experience as the history of Russia and country and civilization runs to more than thousand years. But that doesn’t mean that there were no democratic institutions in the history of Russian people or that there were no democratic practices. What kind of public democratic system can be found in Russian political tradition? The present article is devoted to the study of this question. The author examines democratic traditions in Russia in the 10th–12th centuries. We certainly won’t find the theoretical conception of the term “democracy” in spiritual; and political ideas in Russia of the 10th-12th centuries, as well as any detailed analysis of the history of Russian democratic institutions in the works of Russian thinkers of that time. Still annalistic and other sources contain extensive factual data that can be used by the researchers for the analysis of Slavic and Russian democratic traditions and reconstruction of the democratic conceptions of our ancestry.

Nominalistic Preconditions of Secularism and Its Actual Significance for Russia and the West
Authors: Shchipkov Vasiliy A. 
Published: December 2020

The problem of aggressive secularism in the form of fight against religion was acute throughout the 20th century, and not only in the Soviet Union, but also in capitalist countries, which drew the attention of A. Solzhenitsyn in the 1980s. This problem remains relevant also today, despite the fact that the USSR collapsed and the atheism ceased to be an open threat to religious consciousness. It is noted in the article that the theory of secularization is being revised by religious scholars and sociologists, while new models for the study of the secularity are proposed. The author of the article develops and comments on one of such models connecting the emergence of secularism with the late medieval scholasticism and the philosophy of nominalism.

Authors: Talina Galina V.
Published: December 2020

The article describes Yu. F. Samarin’s interpretation of Russian autocracy evolution in the period from the last third of the 15th century and till the 60s–70s years of the 19th century, from the reign of Ivan the Third till the reign and reforms of Alexander the Second. For the present analysis of the well-known Slavophile’s views the author has used act materials, modern interpretation by our historians of the process of Russian monarchy transformation and the scientific research materials of the author of this article. Special attention in paid to the role of Peter the First in the national history, his infringement of inheritance succession of the throne and consequences of the innovations introduced by him. According to Samarin, that model of autocracy became an obstacle for the transition from the autocratic monarchy to the constitutional one in the middle of the 19th century, but did not contradict the role of Russia as the stronghold of the Slavic-Orthodox world.
Memória do Gesto
Authors: Bochio Alessandra Lucia , Castellani Felipe Merker
Published: December 2020

As imagens apresentadas neste ensaio visual são decorrentes de uma série de vídeos, que foram construídos a partir de pequenos gestos, criados para estar em performance. Aqui ganham outra versão, ou melhor, outra atualização. Trata-se de híbridos, que estão entre a fixidez das imagens e a produção de presença das performances. São imagens que, ao mesmo tempo em que são atravessadas pela gestualidade e pela taticidade, são traços ou rastros de um amplo processo de diálogo das nossas pesquisas artísticas, que se cristalizam agora em formas fixas. Evocam, ao menos para nós, a memória – como suspensão do mundo. A memória do corpo, do gesto, da performance, bem como de processos criativos que ficaram para trás e de pesquisas que tomaram outros rumos, mas que se apresentam aqui por meio de novos questionamentos. De maneira paradoxal, evocam ainda a memória como forma de armazenamento, no caso o armazenamento digital, registrado em sequências de 0 e 1.Parece-nos oportuno trazer o híbrido performance-imagem neste momento, principalmente a partir de suas próprias contradições. Em tempos de isolamento social, a presença mediada pela imagem digital tem tido uma ênfase constante. Não que não tivesse anteriormente, mas o digital tem se tornado cada vez mais o refúgio em que os indivíduos constroem seus esconderijos das imperfeições do mundo físico e do corpo a corpo das relações intersubjetivas, conforme mencionou recentemente Achille Mbembe.Reiteramos, não há melhor momento para pensar a produção de presença mediada pela imagem digital, a qual, por meio da sua matriz binária, generaliza a memória dos corpos, dos gestos, das performances, reduzindo-a às supostas universalidades e sequências numéricas.“Até o outro dia”, como argumenta Mbembe, “[...] é na esfera digital que parecida residir o destino dos conjuntos humanos e da produção material, bem como os seres vivos. [...] Bastava transferir o conjunto de aptidões do ser vivo para um duplo digital que estaria tudo resolvido” (MBEMBE, 2020, online). A generalidade do digital seria capaz de apagar todas as contradições e diferenças. Os corpos, os gestos, as performatividades e suas memórias seriam então pasteurizados para eliminar qualquer resíduo estranho. No entanto, argumenta ele, “não importa o quanto tentemos nos livrar disso, tudo remete, por fim, ao corpo”.Convidamos no ensaio visual Memória do gesto as leitoras e os leitores a percorrerem algumas memórias numéricas de gestos, atos físicos presentificados que buscam tensionar e colocar ruído na assepsia do mundo digital descorporificado que hoje nos engole com seus fluxos imateriais e suas novas formas de vigilância, controle e domesticação social

Published: December 2020

The article analyses the problem of the adequacy of perception from the standpoint of transcendental psychology.

The revealed correlation turned out to be similar to the corresponding ratio of transcendental cognition according to I. Kant, known as the «Copernican revolution». Further analysis showed that these two relationships are similar in structure and that they describe the solution of various complementary tasks.
