Production and Circulation of Technical Knowledge on Building Sites at the End of the Eighteenth Century
Authors: Nègre Valérie
Published: December 2021

This article aims to shed light on the exchange of technical knowledge between architects, master craftsmen and workmen on building sites at the end of the eighteenth century. In the Age of Enlightenment, major building sites were places where a large number of skilled practitioners of various ranks met (engineers, architects, contractors, experts, craftsmen). These were therefore places where the exchange of knowledge and know-how occurred but also places of struggle for power and knowledge. The article examines these exchanges and struggles using the case study of the building site for the dome of the Halle au Blé in Paris (1782-1783).
Making Modern Knowledge of Traditional Carpentry in China and Japan: Myth, Reality and Transmission
Authors: Congcong Ren
Published: December 2021

Carpentry skills were among the most important elements of building practice in premodern China and Japan, and traditional carpentry skills continue in use in both countries to the present day. Although their importance has been greatly marginalised in building practice, in both countries some master carpenters have gained public recognition. This paper compares the modernisation of traditional building knowledge in China and Japan, and the fate of carpentry knowledge as the building industry and the formal discipline of architecture evolved. It distinguishes three phases in this historical trajectory: the period during the introduction of Western architecture as a discipline, when traditional knowledge was rejected or used selectively in the construction of national histories of building; the period when modern technology took over the main building industry and traditional craftsmen had to confront the realities of new technologies of production; and the period, still unfolding today, where heritage movements are promoting the recuperation and development of traditional craft knowledge. For each country, the paper traces how the nation’s history of building was selectively fashioned into an orthodox narrative; explores the content of key early technical works (for China, the official handbook Yingzao fashi [Building standards] and the craftsman’s manual Lu Ban jing [Carpenters’ Canon], and for Japan kikujutsu [literally, “compass and ruler techniques”] books); and shows how a talented master carpenter succeeded in creating a niche for himself within the contemporary heritage culture. It concludes that differences in the cultural respect accorded to carpentry knowledge in the two countries are rooted in the contrasting status of craftsmen in the premodern era.
Distant learning as a way to meet challenges: teaching English for medical students
Authors: Pechinkina Olga , Vepreva Tatiana
Published: December 2021

In 2020 the world encountered a new virus. Nobody could predict it but it happened. The boundaries between countries were closed, people were obliged to stay at home, schools and universities were shut and the education was transferred online. We have to admit that not all educational institutions were ready to switch to the online format of teaching in such a short period. However, in conditions when there are no possibilities for face-to-face teaching educators are forced to find the most efficient ways of teaching English. In this paper, the authors aim to investigate online resources able to compensate for the lack of face-to-face communication. While doing research critical analysis of existing literature and generalisation of teaching experience were used. The findings revealed that even in distant learning particular resources can recompense for the absence of offline learning.
Monitored therapy of sporadic mycobacteriosis caused by Mycobacterium genavense in Atlantic canaries (Serinus canaria) and Bengalese finch (Lonchura striata)
Authors: Ledwoń Aleksandra , Dolka Izabella , Adamczyk Krzysztof , Szeleszczuk Piotr
Published: December 2021

Introduction

Mycobacteriosis is a significant disease of companion and wild birds which causes emaciation and widely distributed lesions, as well as being a potential zoonosis. Its primary aetiological agents in birds are Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium and the fastidious Mycobacterium genavense. This study monitored the therapy of birds naturally infected with Mycobacterium genavense to gain understanding of its effectiveness and the interrelation of co-infections with the disease course and pharmacotherapy.

Material and Methods

Five Atlantic canaries (Serinus canaria) and one Bengalese finch (Lonchura striata) with tentative diagnoses of mycobacteriosis resulting from M. genavense infection were treated twice daily with clarithromycin at 40 mg/kg, ethambutol at 30 mg/kg, and moxifloxacin at 10 mg/kg for 6 months. Two canaries were also found to be carriers of Cryptosporidium galli. Mycobacteria in faecal samples of all birds were investigated by bacterioscopy and quantitative PCR.

Results

Molecular tests yielded positive results for up to four months after treatment initiation for M. genavense and Cryptosporidium, but microscopy failed to detect the latter after four weeks in specimens from one canary. Co-infections with polyomavirus (in all birds) and circovirus and bornavirus (in canaries) were diagnosed. Two birds died during treatment and one was euthanised because of other disease, 1 month after treatment completion. Three canaries were in relatively good health a year after treatment.

Conclusion

Canary circovirus and polyomavirus co-infection may suppress the immune system and this may facilitate the development of mycobacteriosis. The set of drugs used led to the complete cure of mycobacteriosis in three canaries. In one bird the disease returned. Clarithromycin was the active drug against C. galli. Molecular methods serve well to monitor mycobacteriosis therapy and identify M. genavense and C. galli carriage.

Published: December 2021

This work, developed as a case study, propose, describe, and evaluates an implementation of a pull system in a SME company producing polymeric components for the automotive industry. The production system of the company was based on the push paradigm, which creates high stock levels and high lead times. The main purpose was to develop a pull production system controlled by Kanbans in the painting line. To achieve this goal, this case study demonstrates the application of relevant lean tools, such as, VSM, SMED, Kanban System, Supermarkets and Leveling. Through the SMED’s application, it was possible to reduce the setup times in 38% and make annual earnings of approximately 83000€. The application of a Kanban System, Leveling and Supermarket enabled the WIP’s reduction between injection and painting in 56% and, also, between painting and expedition in 45%. Also, the lead time decreased and the value-added time increased. Thus, this is an exemplary case study for the implementation of a pull system and can be used both by practitioners and researchers interested in this theme.

Esboço De Uma Interpretação Fenomenológica Da Imaginação Material De Bachelard
Authors: Araújo Joaquim Carlos
Published: December 2021

La grille phénoménologique ordinairement, et la phénoménologie husserlienne en particulier, sont les outillages conceptuels que d’un mode général peuvent éclairer la magnifique prose bachelardienne, nommément sa pensée esthétique sur l’ imagination des matières, sur la rêverie matérielle de la tétralogie des élements naturels. De même que le phénomène n’est pas au-delà de son apparaître, aussi l’ image matérielle, elle même, s’épuise dans cet acte d’une évidence aprioristique, ce qui lui confère le sens propre de l’image, à savoir, l’image par l’ image. L’imagination se constitue donc en tant qu’une unité de présentafication / neutralisation au dedans de la consciense esthétique. Nous pouvons distinguer la fonction thématique de l’imagination de la fonction positionelle de l’imagination et les rapporter au lieu originel d’une irrealité, d’un fictum.
Paul Ricœur’s Hermeneutics Towards Reflexive Philosophy
Authors: Ribeiro João Amaral
Published: December 2021

Essential philosophical question according to Paul Ricœur: the ontological and epistemological possibility of the understanding of the self.

Philosophy as reflection, ethics and herrneneutics; reflection taken as a task of position, interpretation and appropriation of the self; ethics as the effort of emancipation is required; hermeneutics as ontic-existential investigation which deals with the situation of sharing belonging (pre-understanding) and the critical distanciation which come with or judge rival or opposing interpretations; understanding of the self as a consequence an a unfinished interpretation of the envolving significant signs (symbols and texts); interpretation as dialectic relation between understanding (synthesis, truthful guess and appropriation as far as reference is concemed) and explanation (analysis, clarification and methodological validation as far as sense is concemed) in the dynamic process of reading.

Ricœur’s perspective – framed in reflexive philosophy and as a hermeneutic variation of Husserl’s phenomenology starting from the epistemology to the ontology of the understanding.
Heidegger e as Ciências
Authors: Melim Nuno
Published: December 2021

In this paper we deal with a not so slight misunderstanding about Heidegger’s conception of science(s). We try to show that instead of a so-called «anti-scientism» we find rather a critical thought on the part of Heidegger. Critical in two senses: one that implies a questioning and an explicitation of the pre-scientific, non-scientific foundations (or conditions) of science and the analysis of the relation between sciences as «regional ontologies» and philosophy as «fundamental ontology»; another that suggests the «need of another thinking», an alternative (certainly discussible) to the predominant calculative thinking of «the era of science».
Market Analysis and Meal Ready-to-Eat Main Course Development in the Context of Military Use
Authors: Raits Ēvalds , Ķirse-Ozoliņa Asnate , Muižniece-Brasava Sandra
Published: December 2021

A one-day ration can be supplied to a soldier in the form of one ration pack for 24 hours or three packs of meal ready-to-eat, which equals one 24-hour ration. Based on the physical activity level and consequently energy requirements, there are two categories of military operations: a) normal operations, comparable to urban police work or firefighting, and b) combat operations which represent missions involving light-infantry. The aim of this study was: a) to analyse the EU market on the subject of a main course (MC) product in flexible packaging (n = 184), in the context of military use, and b) to develop thermostabilised MC aligning with modern health and nutrition recommendations for military use, i.e. protein, carbohydrate, fat, total energy intake, and essential amino acid composition. The greatest amount of ready-to-eat meals with shelf-life over one year are produced in the United Kingdom (n = 48) and most of the MC meals are preserved using freeze-drying (n = 135). While 90% of analysed products meet fat criteria for a physically active consumer (i.e. soldier), 39% meet carbohydrate criteria, 21% meet energy intake criteria, only 1% of the products are able to fulfill protein requirements. In this study, nine MC meals with shelf-life of three years were developed, which provide the necessary protein amount for a highly physically active consumer and cover its daily essential amino acid requirements.

Published: December 2021

The concentration of nitrogen in the Earth’s atmosphere is about 78%, but most plants are not able to acquire it directly from the atmosphere. One of the most common ways for binding atmospheric nitrogen is the development of an efficient symbiotic system between legumes and rhizobia. The aim of this study was to compare how different legumes and rhizobia symbiosis systems affect the concentrations of nutrients and other elements in soya and faba beans. Seeds of plants were inoculated with a preparation of rhizobia just before sowing. Plant samples were collected at the flowering stage (vegetative parts) and during harvest (seeds). Samples were air-dried and analysed with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Total nitrogen and carbon concentrations were determined with an elemental analyser (EA). The obtained results showed that inoculation of legume plants with rhizobia not only affected nitrogen uptake by plants but also uptake of other elements. Inoculation had an effect on mineral element uptake for both faba bean and soybean leaves, where a significant increase in Mg, P, K, and Ca was observed. Treatment of legume plants with rhizobia caused a decrease of P and K concentrations in seeds, and there were changes in Fe and Mn concentrations.

Authors: Kārkliņa Klinta , Kampuse Solvita
Published: December 2021

A fruit juice and coffee drink is an interesting combination that provides the necessary bioactive compounds and caffeine for the whole day. The coffee brewing method changes not only the amount of caffeine but also the taste of fruit juice and coffee drink. The least bitter taste is felt in cold brewed coffee, making it an ideal ingredient for a fruit juice and coffee drink. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of preparing technologies for creating an innovative fruit juice and coffee drink with a high content of bioactive compounds. Four different types of medium-roasted “Lofbergs” coffee beans were compared, as well as two brewing techniques: French press (hot coffee) and cold-brew. Concentration of vitamin C, pH, soluble solids content, titratable acids, total phenol content, DPPH antiradical activity, and sensory analyses were determined for all prepared samples. Concentration of vitamin C in juice with coffee was from 10.36 to 22.60 mg·100 g−1, and the highest vitamin C concentration was preserved in the pasteurised juice and coffee drink with cold-brew coffee preparation technique. Concentration of soluble solids was from 12.3 to 12.6%, titratable acids from 0.79 to 0.87%, pH from 2.68 to 2.88, total phenols from 54.31 to 129.26 mg·100 g−1, and the highest total phenol concentration was obtained in the pasteurised fruit and coffee drink with smooth and sweet coffee beans prepared using the cold-brew technique. DPPH antiradical activity was from 126.24 to 177.89 mg·100 g−1 in the tested samples, and the highest DPPH antiradical activity was detected in the pasteurised fruit and coffee drink with sweet and nutty coffee beans prepared with cold-brew technique. The best sensory profile was for coffee and juice drinks with “Lofbergs” Medium roast Fruity and Velvety Rwanda coffee beans and “Lofbergs” Medium roast prepared with cold-brew technology.

Methodological approach to assessing the quality of strategic planning activities
Authors: SIL’VESTROV Sergei N. , STAROVOITOV Vladimir G. , BELYAEV Ivan I. , LARIONOV Aleksandr V.
Published: December 2021

Subject. The article addresses a methodological approach to determining the feasibility of including an event that ensures the achievement of strategic targets in the implementation plan of a strategic planning document (i.e., a national project or a government program).
Objectives. The purpose is to develop a methodological approach to create a balanced list of measures, which, if implemented, will have a positive effect on achieving strategic guidelines for sustainable socio-economic development and strengthening the economic security.
Methods. The study rests on expert estimates for calculating the index of activities quality. The calculation of the index is based on the assessment of the index of incoming resources, the index of process, the index of outcome. The approach enables to consider elements associated with the initiation of a particular event, its successful implementation, and achievement of a specific outcome.
Results. The study creates an approach to defining the degree of elaboration of the event and the feasibility of including it in the implementation plan of the strategic planning document. The method of expert estimates enables to neutralize some uncertainties and costs caused by initial data quality, empirical estimates of the degree of obtained results’ accuracy, and allocated resources.
Conclusions. The working out of organizational, legal, and regulatory measures is only one element of strategizing. Further research should develop methodological approaches to the definition of targeted and critical values of the strategy system to implement a high-quality and operational monitoring.

Authors: DADALKO Vasilii A. , DENISOVA Lyubov’ V. , GENERALOV Dmitrii A.
Published: December 2021

Subject. The article investigates the basic principles of business valuation and ways to increase it within the development of the production and economic system of an industrial enterprise.
Objectives. We focus on examining the possibilities of business valuation and the parties interested in its implementation, consider modern approaches and corresponding methods used in valuation activities, propose directions for increasing the market value of an industrial enterprise, and assess their economic feasibility.
Methods. The study rests on the content analysis of available domestic and foreign sources. We employ general scientific methods, i.e. analysis, synthesis, deduction, induction, analogy, and special methods, like empirical, quantitative and qualitative analysis, situational and systems analysis, comparative, financial, and economic analysis.
Results. We reveal the need to improve the efficiency of enterprise management in the context of economic instability in the country, resulting in an increase in its market value. We considered an industrial enterprise operating in the construction sector that was seriously affected by the pandemic. Using this case, we demonstrate the implementation of the lean production concept, which has proven to be successful.
Conclusions. In the current economic conditions, Russian enterprises are forced to look for new ways of development and to improve the efficiency of business management. The optimal solution for an industrial enterprise can be the ‘lean production’ cost-saving concept. If implemented, the concept shows decent results, strengthens the enterprise’s position in the market, and increases its fair value.

The Field of Vegetable Operations
Authors: Osman Henry
Published: December 2021

In this short speculation, I imagine a future forest that has been disturbed by invasive species, a changing climate, and engineered plant sensors. By staging this encounter between a wandering hiker, who never quite realizes that he is being watched, and MetaBee™ #21783, a drone that watches over nanobionic spinach, I feel out the strangeness of this burgeoning mode of surveillance. In my own research, I term this operationalization of pollinator-plant relations, in which drones harvest information from engineered plants instead of pollen, a “vital informatics.” That is to say, I argue that current military research into nanobionic and genetically engineered plants constitutes a living information science that integrates organic systems into data collection, storage, and processing.
Beatas en los márgenes del Imperio: Una aproximación a la vida de Margarita Berdugo desde la obra de fray Alonso de Zamora (siglo XVII)
Authors: Brizuela Sofia
Published: December 2021

La forma de vida beata llegó a Hispanoamérica en las primeras décadas posteriores a la conquista. Nos interesa reconocer los primeros pasos de estas mujeres religiosas en México y Lima hasta llegar al Nuevo Reino de Granada a finales del siglo XVI. Dado el carácter poco institucionalizado y marginal del movimiento no es fácil hallar rastros certeros, sin embargo, la Orden Dominica ofrece en la crónica de Alonso de Zamora una información excepcional que arroja luz sobre el fenómeno y forma de vida de algunas mujeres a las que conocemos como “terceras”. En este artículo analizaremos aspectos vinculados a dichas mujeres y los roles que desempeñaron bajo un sólido compromiso de vida espiritual. Este movimiento como forma de manifestación religiosa, será estudiado a través de la beata Margarita de San Agustín cuya fisonomía permitirá conocer una de las vertientes del protagonismo femenino en el periodo colonial.

Cultura en guerra
Authors: Agesta María de las Nieves
Published: December 2021

Las consecuencias de la Primera Guerra Mundial no se limitaron al territorio involucrado directamente en el enfrentamiento, sino que tuvieron un alcance global que, como ha señalado la historiografía reciente, no excluyó a las naciones latinoamericanas. En este trabajo se exploran los efectos de esta contienda sobre la reconfiguración de las relaciones entre el Estado argentino y las instituciones culturales, atendiendo, en particular, a la acción desplegada por el gobierno nacional en favor de las bibliotecas populares entre 1914 y 1921, momento que se reglamentó el funcionamiento interno de la Comisión Protectora de Bibliotecas Populares a nivel nacional.
De este modo, se demuestra que el conflicto constituyó un momento clave en el debate sobre las formas y los alcances que debía asumir la participación estatal en la materia, así como en el diseño de agencias, normas y mecanismos de regulación del sector. Mediante documentación oficial, se reconstruyen las condiciones económicas a las que se vieron sometidas las entidades con motivo de la crisis, las discusiones que se produjeron en torno a la participación presupuestaria que debía otorgarse a la cultura y, por último, las tentativas de organización burocrática y normativa como respuesta a las limitaciones del sistema evidenciadas durante esos años.

Published: December 2021

Purpose–With industry 4.0 revolutionizing the digitally renowned teaching and learning societies, this research study aims to uncover the practices of public high school teachers on digital teaching and learning technologies during the COVID-19pandemic. Method–This descriptive-correlational study surveyed 34 consented Filipino teacher-participants of a public high school system in the Buguey District, Northern Philippines. Validated responses extracted thru Google forms administered in 30 days were described using frequency counts and percentages. Perceived practices were correlated with teacher-participants' profiles, while qualitative key informant interviews disclosed best practices, challenges, and problems along with the use of digital technologies for teaching and learning.Results–Findings revealed rare practices on the use of digital technologies to teaching and learning during the COVID-19 pandemic among teachers which are mostly on early to middle age brackets, dominantly female, completed their equivalent Masters' degree, holding teacher 2 or 3 ranks, and permanently teaching in 6 to 10 years now. Practices of teachers in the use of digital teaching and learning tools are somewhatevident, eager to practice and acknowledging the benefits of using the digital tools and radiating best practices in the workplace. Despite some technical issues that are beyond control, having internet at home necessitates the teacher's role to enhance teaching and learning while maximizing the potential of varied tools.Conclusion–With the onslaught of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Department of Education (DepEd)has indeed necessitated teachers to be innovative in class towards achieving its vision-mission statement by integrating into the curriculum and instruction the use of digital teaching and learning tools.Recommendations–It is recommended that DepEd must continually upscale its technological competencies with the implementation of the proposedlearning action cell sessions.Research Implications–The relevant research findings provided insights for school administrators for implementing training sessions for teachers to be technologically pandemic-responsive.Practical Implications–The results of the study provided inputs for teachers to be adaptive to utilizing digital tools for teaching not only in time of a pandemic.
Purchase Planning for Minimum Assortment Goods Given the Uncertainty of Demand

Some retailers (e.g. pharmacies) are responsible for satisfying the demand for the minimum range of goods, which are generally unprofitable. With respect to such goods, the enterprise seeks to satisfy uncertain demand rather than to make profit. We assume that: (a) the vector of demand for goods of the minimum assortment in the planning period lies “between” the demand vectors of several previous periods (is a convex linear combination of these vectors); (b) the smaller the maximum unsatisfied demand (by product groups and possible vectors of demand), the greater is the reliability of meeting the demand. Under these assumptions, we address the problem of allocating a limited procurement budget among commodity groups to meet uncertain demand most reliably. The article shows that this problem is equivalent to finding an optimal strategy by Wald’s criterion in some game with nature and can be reduced to a linear programming problem. Using the problem features, we propose a fast (having quadratic complexity) algorithm for constructing an optimal procurement plan. The model can be used when planning the minimum assortment goods procurement in order to maximize the meeting demand reliability, achievable within the allocated budget. As far as we know, such a formulation of the problem has not been studied in the previous literature.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Small and medium-sized enterprises have been significantly affected. Domestic measures of state support, including tax incentives, have become an important support factor. The corresponding Resolution provided for the expansion of opportunities to support the implementation of regional support measures. We found that the choice of a model of behavior by the regional authorities in our case depended on the level of favorable regional environment for the development of SMEs, as well as the level of diversification of regional production. We carried out an initial comparison of the consequences of the implementation of different support models in three similar regions and predicted the impact of the implemented regional support model on the future development of SMEs. The costs of the region for additional support measures, calculated as the lost budget income, in terms of one employee employed in medium and small businesses, turned out to be very insignificant. We draw a conclusion about the high economic and political efficiency of support measures associated with reducing the tax burden. It can be said that the regions that did not expand the support measures provided for by Resolution № 409 at the expense of the regional package missed the chance to convert small funds in support of the population.

Background:

Spinal intramedullary tuberculoma (IMT) is a rare manifestation of extrapulmonary tuberculosis (TB). Presentation of TB in the pediatric age group is a significant contributor to mortality.

Case Description:

A young vaccinated girl presented to the neurosurgery department with difficulty walking and urinary incontinence. A magnetic resonance imaging performed outside the hospital showed a hyperintense intramedullary lesion extending from T6 to T9. The patient underwent T6–T9 laminoplasty with intramedullary lesion decompression under neuromonitoring. The dense adherence of the lesion to the cord and nerve roots permitted only debulking. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of tuberculoma. The patient was started on antitubercular treatment and was then subsequently discharged. After 8 months, the patient was reviewed and showed improvement in her symptoms and complete resolution of the lesion on imaging. The patient has now developed hydrocephalus on the latest computed tomography imaging, which may be due to tubercular meningitis or arachnoiditis.

Conclusion:

Complete resolution of spinal IMT is possible with a combined treatment approach.

Introduction. Patient safety in optimal working conditions of the surgeon is the main task of the anesthesiology service. Neurovegetative homeostasis is the goal of the anesthesiologist [9, 19, 20, 49]. Full-fledged examination, identification of clear contraindications, extended monitoring; ensure joint and effective work of the team. The depth of anesthesia depends on a significant number of exogenous and endogenous factors. Many methods are used to assess the function of the cardiovascular system, which contributes to the performance of safe anesthesia. Much depends on the effect of the drug, but the effect of afferent noc- and antinociceptive systems, which behave extremely unstable, may require significant adjustment of the standard calculated dose. The adequacy of the effect of drugs and technological means on vital functions during anesthesia is sometimes difficult to assess based on standard monitoring methods, which forces us to consider the effect of surgical stress on the ANS. Maintaining a balanced pharmacological protection of all vital systems, in particular, the autonomic nervous system (ANS) before, during and after anesthesia is of great practical interest [7, 10].

Abstract. Arthroscopic knee surgery (AKS) is one of the most common types of surgery in the world. But there is still a debate about the optimal type of anesthetic management for this type of orthopedic surgery. The purpose of the study was to improve the quality of anesthetic management of arthroscopic interventions on the knee joint by introducing personalized perioperative anesthesia management. Materials and methods: 142 patients, aged 18-78 years, who were planned for AKS, took part in the study. The patients were randomized into 2 groups according to the type of anesthesia chosen by the patient. In the first group (n1 = 82) patients underwent neuraxial anesthesia in combination with intravenous administration of dexmedetomidine, in the second group (n2 = 60) – multicomponent low-flow inhalation anesthesia with sevoflurane in combination with multimodal analgesia. Before the operation, the level of preoperative stress was assessed. During the first 24 hours after surgery, the level of postoperative pain was assessed by the VAS, the incidence of PONV, and overall patient satisfaction with the surgery. Results: the level of pain according to the VAS, the incidence of PONV, the level of satisfaction in the study groups did not differ significantly. Conclusions: Neuraxial and general anesthesia for arthroscopic knee surgery has advantages and disadvantages. The patient’s choice of one or another type of anesthetic aid was significantly influenced by the level of preoperative stress. Decision-making on the method of anesthesia should be based on the patient’s wishes and possible previous surgical experience.

Introduction. The incidence of COVID-19 continues to rise rapidly worldwide, leading to significant socio-economic damage to health and economic systems.Objective. To determine the effectiveness of intravenous immunoglobulin G (IVIG) in combination with a basic therapy in severe COVID-19.Materials and methods. A retrospective cohort study of 8 case histories of patients with severe COVID-19 for the period from 27.08.2020 to 20.03.2021 was conducted in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the infectious diseases department of the Municipal Non-Profit Enterprise «Kyiv City Clinical Hospital №17» (MNE KCCH №17).Results and discussions. During the period from 27.08.20 to 20.03.21 in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the infectious department of the Municipal Non-Profit Enterprise «Kyiv City Clinical Hospital №17» (MNE KCCH №17) there were 163 patients, of whom 79 died and the mortality rate was 48.4%. The mean age of patients was 63.5 ± 12.9 years (19 to 95 years). The mean age of death was 66.9 ± 9.9 years (40 to 87 years).During the study period, 8 patients received IVIG (5%) together with a basic therapy. The mean age of patients was 51.4 ± 14.7 years (from 29 to 69 years). Mortality among patients receiving IVIG was 37.5%.Conclusions. Mortality of patients who received IVIG in addition to a basic therapy was significantly lower compared to patients who received only basic therapy, 37.5% and 48.4%, respectively.
