Effect of ISO (9001) Certification and Article Type Produced on Lean Six Sigma Application Successes: a Case Study Within Textile Companies
Authors: Nedra Abbes , Jun Xu , Nèjib Sejri , Jiajia Duan
Published: November 2022

This study focused on how the ISO 9001:2008 standard has influenced organisational Lean Six Sigma (LSS) implementation success. Data were collected through a survey, followed by interviews with the quality managers/representatives of 85 small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the textile industry. Additionally, case studies on four of the textile SMEs were carried out to validate the results. Our analysis revealed that the main benefits of LSS, among others, are problem solving improvement, reduction of the quality problem, waste reduction, and increase of productivity. However, certified companies are aware of continuous improvements to tools, which ensures the continuity of improvements made by the LSS project and facilitates the integration of Lean Six Sigma tools, which can help to make better use of the Lean Six Sigma project. The type of article produced was also found to have a considerable effect on the success of the Lean Six Sigma project.

Authors: Śledzińska Katarzyna , Napieralska Lidia , Jasińska Izabela , Witczak Ewa , Jarzyna Violeta
Published: November 2022

Activisation is very important for motor disabled persons and helps them to integrate with the whole of society. Physically disabled persons face many occupation related obstacles at work, mainly connected with the presence of architectonic barriers and the occupational environment. An important part of the employment process of locomotor disabled workers is the adjustment of work stations to the worker’s needs, providing workwear, rooms and work plant surrounding adaptation. Analysis of workwear available on the market shows that commercial offers do not cover workwear dedicated especially for physically disabled persons. The main goal of workwear design and construction is to provide complex comfort for the user, whose needs and expectations differ from able-bodied employees. In this study the general assumptions of textile material selection for workwear dedicated for locomotor disabled employees are presented, together with the results of tests carried out for selected textile materials.
Fabrication and Properties of Self-crimp Side-by-Side Bicomponent Filaments Composed of Polyethylene Terephthalates with Different Intrinsic Viscosity
Authors: Xiang Guodong , Hua Hongjing , Gao Qingwen , Guo Jingwen , Zhang Xuzhen , Wang Xiuhua
Published: November 2022

Self-crimp side-by-side bicomponent filaments (SBSBFs) were prepared via melt spinning using two kinds of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with great disparity of intrinsic viscosity. The influence of the volume ratio on the surface morphology, crystallinity, crimping properties, mechanical properties and shrinkage properties of the bicomponent filaments was investigated using wide-angle X-ray diffraction, a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscope, etc. As the proportion of the low-viscosity component increases, the shrinkage in boiling water or hot air, as well as the shrinkage force and the sonic orientation factor of the bicomponent filaments decrease, and the DSC heating curves change from double peaks to a single peak. These phenomena should be ascribed to the high orientation and low crystallinity of the high-viscosity PET component and low orientation and high crystallinity of the low-viscosity PET component. Moreover, the crimp property of the bicomponent filament with a volume ratio of 50:50 is superior to those with other volume ratios.

Published: November 2022

The use of fibre-reinforced plastic composites (FRP) for lightweight construction solutions is becoming increasingly important. The processing of 2D scrims into complete 3D FRP components has been carried out with the help of complex manual assembly steps. The disadvantages of this procedure are distortions in the textile and, thus, deviations in the fibre alignments from the calculated load path.

This paper presents a newly developed basic technology for the production of 3D reinforcing grids with variable warp and weft yarn section lengths based on multiaxial warp knitting technology. For this purpose, a new type of machine module and associated control technology for the production of weft yarn reserves on a multiaxial warp knitting machine was developed. In combination with technology from previous research work on the production of warp yarn lengths suitable for component contours, a basis was created for the production of 3D reinforcing grids.

Published: November 2022

Smart hydrogels, or stimuli-responsive hydrogels, can and should play an important role as excellent drug carriers. These three-dimensional structure materials are composed of crosslinked hydrophilic polymer chains that are able to dramatically change their volume and other properties in response to environmental stimuli, such as pH, temperature and solvent changes. The main goal of individual research projects was the development of new hydrogels based on polypeptides. These hybrid materials are crosslinked hydrophilic polymers capable of absorbing large amounts of water, saline or physiological solutions. Superabsorbent hydrogels based on natural materials are non-toxic, biocompatible and biodegradable. Unfortunately, their mechanical properties in the swollen state are weak. In this article, we present a review of literature on the synthesis of smart hydrogels based on keratin or collagen with synthetic materials.

Authors: Kabir Shekh Md. Mamun , Hasan Md. Mahabub , Mashud Alam AKM
Published: November 2022

As the spread of Covid-19 has created a fatal threat to human survival, a comfortable and virus-deactivated functional face mask is extremely necessary. Herein, an appropriate thermally comfortable and highly breathable as well as virus-protecting functional knit fabric face mask was developed that consisted of multichannel PE Coolmax® yarn with cotton yarn. Due to the multichannel structure (four and six channels) of PE Coolmax® yarn with cotton yarn blended fabric, the fiber showed good filtration efficiency, air permeability, water vapour permeability and moisture management properties. In addition, the thermal conductivity and absorptive properties of the blended fabric based on the properties of PE Coolmax® yarn with cotton yarn make the face mask more comfortable for the user.

Harmonisation Between Trade Liberalisation and Environmental Protection – A Long Way to Go? An Analysis of Vietnam’s Debris Importation Control in Light of WTO and CPTPP Rules
Authors: Duong Tran Thi Thuy
Published: November 2022

As in many other countries, Vietnam’s integration into the international trade system has accelerated since its participation in the WTO and regional trade agreements. However, widening market access – the consequence of this integration process – risks exacerbating some of Vietnam’s existing environmental problems. In this context, the Vietnamese government is adopting measures in order to mitigate negative impacts of trade on the environment, but do these measures risk violating Vietnam’s international trade commitments? Can the environmental protection provisions of new generation free trade agreements like CPTPP be a reliable legal basis to justify Vietnamese trade restriction measures? The author will analyse these questions, while focusing on the case of debris importation control – an issue that has been attracting a lot of public attention in Vietnam and in South East Asia in recent years.

Storytellers, especially fantasy writers, have always relied on the power of a willing reader’s
imagination that can surpass any word or image conveyed through literary texts. Our
research is fuelled by the possibility to explore the memorable collection of creatures and the
symbolic depth that they add to one of the most popular book series of modern times. The
analysis is centred on three categories of magical animals that inhabit J. K. Rowling’s
wizarding world, as they have either been popular in different mythologies, illustrated the
man-beast archetype or can be characterised as magical beings with dark counterparts.

Jean-Christophe Rufin : du roman français de l’extrême
contemporain à l’altermondialisme
Authors: ABENA Jean Paul
Published: November 2022

This article scrutinizes the rufinian discourse to see how the word and the message conveyed
reflect how lost the human being is. Our contribution is inspired by the relationship between
men. The movements between the social environment found in the fictional universe of Rufin
and the real world evoke the feelings that his texts portray social issues, images of a
fragmented society. From this viewpoint, how is Rufin standing as an adherent to
alterglobalization? The formal structures found in the corpus destroy negative thoughts and
actions in order to build a brand new society. To achieve that goal, the sociopragmatic and
multidisciplinary approach by Kalulu Bisanswa is used as the groundwork.

Published: November 2022

The elderly experience structural changes in the function of biological systems in their bodies due to the ageing process they experience. One of the changes that arise in the health aspect as a result of the ageing process is a decline in cognitive function. The decline in cognitive function in the elderly occurs due to gradual changes in the elderly brain, where this can cause the elderly to experience independence in carrying out daily activities. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between cognitive function and the level of independence in doing activities of daily living in the elderly in Banjar Ketapian Kelod, Denpasar City. This type of study is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design that uses a consecutive sampling technique. The number of subjects obtained in this study was 62 elderly subjects who met the predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected through interviews using the MoCA-Ina questionnaire to measure cognitive function and interviews using the Barthel index questionnaire to measure daily activities. Spearman rho non-parametric analysis test results from cognitive function with daily activities obtained p value = 0.000 (p <0.05) and correlation coefficient r = 0.648. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the two variables have a strong, meaningful, and directly proportional relationship between cognitive function and the level of independence in doing activities of daily living in the elderly in Banjar Ketapian Kelod, Denpasar City.

Published: November 2022

Generally, a person will spend quite a long time using his smartphone. Prolonged use of smartphones can cause musculoskeletal disorders. This event can make the function of the biomotor component decrease. One of the decreased biomotor components is handgrip strength. The role of physiotherapy is needed to educate in avoiding the risk of decreased grip strength. Therefore, this study aims to determine the relationship between smartphone usage duration with handgrip strength in adolescents aged 18-24 years. This research is an analytical observational study using a cross-sectional approach. Sampling using a purposive sampling technique. Fifty women aged 18-24 years who had met the participating criteria were the participants in this study. Handgrip strength was measured using a Camry Handgrip Dynamometer. Smartphone usage duration was obtained from recording the average daily screen time for a month. The average smartphone usage duration  the participant's smartphone was 453.88 ± 159.16 minutes. Based on pearson correlation analysis, there is a significant negative relationship weak to moderate strength between smartphone usage duration and handgrip strength (r=-0.51; p=0.00 dominant handgrip, r=-0.33; p=0,02 non-dominant hand grip). Linear regression showed variations in the strength of the dominant handgrip as much as 26.4% and the non-dominant hand grip as much as 11% can be explained by the smartphone usage duration (p<0.05). The conclusion is smartphone usage duration is correlated with a decrease in handgrip strength. The longer using a smartphone, the weaker the grip strength.

Keywords: screen time, smartphone, grip strength

Perceptions of Healthcare Providers about Pharmacists’ Clinical Roles in Patient Care in Ghana
Authors: Appiah-Num Safo Akua A. , Okoro Olihe N. , Attakorah Joseph
Published: November 2022

Background: Clinical pharmacy practice is distinguishable from the dispensing model by its focus on direct patient care. To function effectively in this role, pharmacists need to have clinical competencies, hence the establishment of the Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) program. In Ghana, the PharmD program is in its early stages; graduating its first set of pharmacists in 2018. There is therefore need to understand how these recent PharmD graduates are engaging in clinical roles and the perceptions of other health professionals they need to work collaboratively with.
Methods: Four different focus group discussions (FGDs) were conducted with physicians, nurses and pharmacists in separate sessions. Questions explored perceptions of the clinical roles of pharmacists. The FGDs were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. A thematic analysis of the transcripts was conducted.
Results: Perceptions around the roles of clinical pharmacists were in two categories – (1.) Roles associated with the provision of direct patient care [(i.) assurance of appropriateness, and (ii.) optimization of pharmacotherapy; and (2.) Roles involving participation in inter-professional collaborative care with other healthcare professionals through their (i.) contribution of pharmacotherapy expertise, and (ii.) input in interprofessional education and practice.
Conclusion: Findings from the study highlight perceived contributions of pharmacists, and potential for more relevance to clinical care, while also drawing attention to the emergence of clinical roles of pharmacists in healthcare systems in a global context. There is continuing need for advocacy for the pharmacy profession and policy changes in healthcare delivery models to maximize potential benefits of clinical pharmacists to health outcomes.

Atopic children are more susceptible to viral respiratory infection at the age of 2‐5 years old
Authors: Stamataki Sofia , Georgountzou Anastasia , Papadopoulos Nikolaos G. , Taka Styliani , Maggina Paraskevi , Xepapadaki Paraskevi , Prokopakis Emmanuel
Published: November 2022

Background: The susceptibility of the atopic population to respiratory infections (RI) has not been fully elucidated. This susceptibility is attributed to the immune dysregulation that characterizes atopic diseases. Although, the exact mechanisms involved are not fully understood,
there is evidence that shows that the maturation of innate immunity progresses differently in patients with atopy. Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the susceptibility to viral RIs (VRI) based on the number and duration of them in different age groups in subjects
with atopy and subjects without atopy. Methods: Seventy-eight subjects (39 healthy and 39 with atopy) were included in the study. All the subjects were evaluated by a specialist and defined as being atopic if they had a clinical history and/or symptoms compatible with any
allergic diseases and relevant sensitizations. Epidemiologic data were recorded based on a standardized questionnaire, which included recording habits, conditions, and living environment as well as the history of viral infections during the last year. Results: In our population,
children with atopy were found to be more susceptible to viral RIs than children without atopy (p = 0.02), whereas there was no difference in susceptibility between healthy adults and adults with atopy (18‐45 years old). More specifically, the atopic age group 2‐5 years old showed
the higher susceptibility to VRIs. Conclusion: This study provided evidence that children with atopy, especially at ages 2‐5 years old, had more numerically and prolonged RIs than did the subjects without atopy. These clinical findings support the hypothesis of distracted
maturation of innate immunity in subjects with atopy.
Microfacies and Diagenetic Processes of the Late Jurassic Naokelekan Formation in selected wells at Balad, Ajil and Baiji Oilfields, Central Iraq

Published: November 2022

This work depends on detailed petrographic and diagenetic processes studies of collected cutting rock samples, from the Late Jurassic Naokelekan Formation from Ajil-8, Balad-1 and Baiji-1 wells. Based on the thin sections study, the formation contains various petrographic components represented by pelecypods, calcispheres, planktonic and benthonic foraminifera, in addition to the groundmass of micrite and microspars. Many diagenetic processes affected the rock successions such as, compaction, micritization, authigenic minerals (pyrite), cementation, neomorphism, dissolution, porosity, replacement and dolomitization. The detailed microfacies analysis reveals that the rock successions consist mainly of three microfacies including; lime mudstone, which is divided into non-fossiliferous lime mudstone, bioclastic lime mudstone and planktonic foraminiferal lime mudstone, lime wackestone which also divided into calcispheres lime wackestone, benthonic lime wackestone, and pelcypodal lime wackestone, and lime packstone include, bioclastic lime packstone, peloidal lime packstone, and calcispheres lime packestone. The overall characters of these microfacies indicate the formation was deposited in two different environments: (1) shallow marine subtidal environment at the lower and upper parts (2) outer shelf in an euxinic environment at its middle part
A Hybrid Cryptosystem based on Latin Square and the Modified BB84 Quantum Key Distribution
Authors: Hamza B. Habib  , Wadhah Abdulelah Hussein  , Asmaa Kh. Abdul-Rahman
Published: November 2022

A new algorithm to improve the security of the transmitted data over the communication channels is presented in this paper. This algorithm is combining Latin square with the modified version of the BB84 Quantum Key Distribution protocol. As the order of the Latin square increases, then , which is the total number of Latin squares of order- , increases quickly. Moreover, the modified BB84 key distribution protocol is a secure method to exchange the encryption keys between two parties. The reason behind that is that the modified BB84 uses the Legendre symbol to generate the quantum key, and it uses the quantum channel only to perform the distribution process instead of using both channels, classic and quantum, as in the standard BB84 protocol. Therefore, the proposed algorithm is secure, reliable and efficient for future communications
Linear and Geometrically Nonlinear Structural Shape Sensing from Strain Data
Authors: Pak Chan-Gi
Published: November 2022

An aircraft’s shape must be measured during flight to implement active shape controls such as active trim shape, divergence, and sonic boom controls. A basis function method for linear as well as geometrically nonlinear structural shape sensing is proposed in this study. Basis functions can be mode shapes, linear static deformation shapes, and/or geometrically nonlinear static deformation shapes. The proposed basis function method is validated using a high-aspect-ratio wing, a swept test plate, and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration X-59 aircraft. A large structural deformation of a high-aspect-ratio wing is successfully captured using the proposed basis function method with less than 0.3% prediction error at the wing-tip section. The basis function method gives excellent deformation prediction, even with stress concentration. Performance of the basis functions is compared using the X-59 stabilator sample case. In most of the sample load cases, static deformations give a better correlation with the target deformation than do mode shapes. Wing shape sensing with sparse strain data are also demonstrated in this study using the X-59 aircraft. Predicted structural deformations match reasonably with the target deformations, even without strain gauges on some structural components. The predicted deformations have a good match with the target deformations.
Transonic Buffet Characteristics Under Conditions of Free and Forced Transition
Authors: Moise Pradeep , Zauner Markus , Sandham Neil D. , Timme Sebastian , He Wei
Published: November 2022

Transonic buffet is commonly associated with self-sustained flow unsteadiness involving shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction over airfoils and wings. The phenomenon has been classified as either laminar or turbulent based on the state of the boundary layer immediately upstream of the shock foot, and distinct mechanisms for the two types have been suggested. The turbulent case is known to be associated with a global linear instability. Herein, large-eddy simulations are used for the first time to make direct comparisons of the two types by examining free- and forced-transition conditions. Corresponding simulations based on the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations for the forced-transition case are also performed for comparison with the scale-resolving approach and for linking the findings with existing literature. Coherent flow features are scrutinized using both data-based spectral proper orthogonal decomposition of the time-marched results and operator-based global linear stability and resolvent analyses within the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes framework. It is demonstrated that the essential dynamic features remain the same for the two buffet types (and for the two levels of the aerodynamic modeling hierarchy), suggesting that both types arise due to the same fundamental mechanism.

A relação entre religião e política, sobretudo no Brasil, está cada vez mais presente em nosso cotidiano. A cada eleição percebemos maior número de candidatos ao poder legislativo que aciona a identidade religiosa para tentar se eleger. No campo do poder executivo não é diferente. Atuais mandatários ou postulantes ao cargo acionam valores religiosos para conseguir apoio político e voto para sucesso da sua eleição ou reeleição, com disputas que buscam legitimar propostas civis a partir de discussões eclesiásticas.
CONCEITO DE “CIVILIZAÇÃO” NA CONFLUÊNCIA DO POLÍTICO E DO RELIGIOSO
Authors: Silva Ana Rosa Cloclet da
Published: November 2022

No Brasil, os vínculos duradouros entre o religioso e o político resultaram num constructo nacional que, no decorrer do século XIX, não pode dispensar o catolicismo como elemento de coesão social e fundamento da comunidade política que então se organizava. Este processo implicou reconfigurações profundas do religioso em reposta às transformações operadas em outros planos, bem como nas suas articulações recíprocas com o político, o social e o cultural, que foram acompanhadas por aceleradas mutações conceituais, expressivas da singular experiência brasileira da secularização. Do ponto de vista da semântica histórica, um dos conceitos que mais fortemente expressou as transformações em curso foi o de “civilização” que, na retórica ultramontana veiculada no Brasil da segunda metade do século XIX, assumiu uma conotação marcadamente católica e antiliberal, sintetizada no binômio “civilização-cristianismo”. Assim, com base no ferramental teórico-metodológico da História dos Conceitos – cujo mérito principal tem sido explorar a profunda articulação entre história e linguagem - o presente artigo busca analisar a trajetória semântica do conceito de civilização no discurso sociopolítico veiculado no Brasil do século XIX, de forma a explorar o sucedido com o léxico político em seus vínculos com a religião. Mediante tal abordagem, espera-se restituir à sua historicidade uma configuração semântica – bem como a materialidade à qual nos reporta –, não raras vezes tomada com certa naturalidade neste país.

Este trabalho apresenta uma análise crítica do discurso sobre a construção discursiva do “Kit Gay” como instrumento de manipulação do eleitorado evangélico brasileiro. Esta análise foi proposta a partir dos objetivos, avaliar como a construção discursiva do “Kit Gay” influenciou o eleitorado evangélico brasileiro e constituiu um instrumento de manipulação no espaço público, se propôs ainda analisar os impactos e efeitos do entrosamento entre midiatização das práticas religiosas e o processo eleitoral brasileiro, apresentar a prática midiática da Fake News e o poder de manipulação no processo organizacional eleitoral brasileiro; delinear aspectos do processo de midiatização da religião que influenciaram nas eleições. Verificou-se no decorrer da pesquisa que hoje existe uma facilidade muito grande de se ter acesso a todo tipo de informação e de poder opinar através de redes sociais, devido a essa facilidade muitas notícias acabam chegando sem a devida veracidade necessária. No processo eleitoral de 2018, o candidato Jair Bolsonaro se apropriou de dois conceitos que já vinham figurando na mídia a um certo tempo “a Ideologia de Gênero” e a fake News, uma servindo a outra. Por meio da Análise do Discurso foi possível verificar o processo de manipulação do eleitorado principalmente devido a divulgação constante de inverdades pelas redes sociais com a finalidade de eleger o atual presidente do Brasil e sobrepujar uma discriminação das minorias. A metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa bibliográfica destacando autores como Cunha, Nogueira, Fairclough, entre outros.

INTUIÇÃO FENOMENOLÓGICA E SUA APLICAÇÃO À ANÁLISE DA RELIGIÃO EM PAUL TILLICH
Authors: Gonçalves Paulo Sérgio Lopes , Silva Henrique Nilo da
Published: November 2022

Este artigo constitui-se uma análise teórico-bibliográfica da intuição fenomenológica de Paul Tillich em seus textos do período germânico (1919-1925) e estadunidense (1933-1963), principalmente nas obras Filosofia da Religião (1925) e Teologia Sistemática (1951). Reconhecendo a validade e as limitações do método fenomenológico para os estudos de religião, o teólogo apropriou-se de maneira original da fenomenologia filosófica. Com o objetivo de apresentar e analisar a intuição fenomenológica do autor e sua aplicação à análise da religião, este texto estrutura-se em quatro tópicos, que estão fundamentados em obras primárias e em comentadores de Paul Tillich no âmbito da área 44 (Ciências da Religião e Teologia). Primeiramente, mostrar-se-á como a intuição fenomenológica de Tillich pode ser um método interessante na investigação do fenômeno religioso. Depois, verificar-se-á a determinação tillichiana de religião e sua apropriação da teoria da intencionalidade husserliana no período germânico. Consequentemente, apresentar-se-á os motivos que levaram o teólogo a preferir e criticar o método fenomenológico em sua filosofia da religião. Por fim, destacar-se-á a maneira como o autor pensou sua fenomenologia crítica e aplicou em sua teologia sistemática. Ciente da influência fenomenológica husserliana e heideggeriana no pensamento de Tillich, salienta-se que a fenomenologia presente em suas produções é própria e original. Portanto, ressalta-se que a intuição fenomenológica tillichiana é um método consistente e interessante para uma fenomenologia da experiência religiosa nos estudos de religião.

Anteroposterior relationship of the maxillary central incisors to the forehead in adult Chinese females
Authors: He Hong , Ngan Peter , Li Minjie , Hua Fang , Zheng Zebin , Lei Jinmei , Andrews Will
Published: November 2022

Objectives:

The objectives of the study were to evaluate the anteroposterior (AP) relationship of the maxillary central incisors to the forehead in adult Chinese females.

Material and Methods:

The study sample consisted of 100 lateral smiling photographic images of adult Chinese females who were seeking orthodontic treatment (mean age = 24.0 + 6.5 years old). The study sample was compared to a control sample consisting of 100 images of adult Chinese females with harmonious facial profiles downloaded from the internet. The images were resized and rotated to the upright head position in an image editing software. Reference lines were constructed to evaluate forehead inclinations and AP positions of the maxillary central incisors.

Results:

In the control sample, 80% of the maxillary central incisors were positioned between the facial axis point of the forehead (FFA) and the glabella. About 13% were positioned posterior to the FFA point and 7% anterior to the glabella. In the study sample, 31% of the maxillary central incisors were positioned between the FFA point and glabella, 52% posterior to the FFA point, and 18% anterior to the glabella. There was a strong correlation between the position of the maxillary central incisors and forehead inclination in the control sample (r2 = 0.827). The difference in AP maxillary central incisor position relative to the forehead between the two groups was found to be statistically significant (P = 0.000).

Conclusion:

The forehead may be an important landmark when evaluating the AP position of maxillary incisors in adult Chinese female patients.

Since December 2019, an epidemic of a new coronavirus infection COVID-19 has been identified in the world. This disease is characterized by a severe course, high mortality, airborne transmission, high contagiousness. During the treatment of the disease and complications after the infection, distant complications in the organs and systems began to appear. Based on experience, the route of transmission of the virus has been proven, as well as the pathogenesis of the disease, long-term complications, in particular in ophthalmology, has been identified. When infected with SARS-CoV-2, there is a violation of blood rheology – an increase in blood coagulation (hypercoagulation), which leads to the formation of blood clots and occlusion in the vascular bed and disruption of the microvasculature.

Diseases of the orbit and ophthalmic organ complex of an inflammatory nature represent an important and difficult section of the pathology of the organ of vision. This is due to the involvement of the structures of the orbital organocomplex in the process, often damage to the optic nerve, the threat of loss of vision, the complexity of the diagnostic search and the variety of clinical forms of the disease. The approach to diagnosis and treatment requires a multidisciplinary approach. The work aims to acquaint ophthalmologists with inflammatory diseases of the orbit and draw attention to the involvement of the oculomotor muscles in the inflammatory process in all cases. Surgical treatment is required to correct binocular vision impairment. We conducted a retrospective study of 31 case histories of patients treated for acute and chronic inflammatory processes in the orbit. All patients had damage to the oculomotor muscles, impaired mobility of the eyeball and diplopia. The use of radiation diagnostic methods makes it possible to localize the inflammatory process in the orbit, to determine the nature of the damage to the oculomotor muscles. In treatment, it is necessary to apply an individual multidisciplinary approach. Surgical interventions on the oculomotor muscles are carried out after the inflammatory process subsides.

A new coronavirus infection has a trace in the human body for a long time as the form of a log-covid syndrome. In ophthalmological practice, there are pathological changes of an inflammatory in all parts of the eye. Сases of dry eye syndrome, blepharitis, conjunctivitis, keratitis, uveitis, vascular disorders and optic neuritis, orbital manifestations (mucormycosis) are described as ophthalmological complications of postcovid syndrome. Post covid keratitis should be differentiated from the traditional forms of viral keratitis. There are some features of post covid keratitis: the lesion of the meibomian glands, the superficial nature of corneal inflammation, and the effectiveness of steroid therapy. Keywords: log-covid syndrome, post covid keratitis, steroid therapy

In the report, dirofilariasis is considered on the example of clinical cases: the main patients' complaints, the clinical picture and principles of surgical treatment, subsequent histopathological examination to verify the diagnosis. Such patients are not rare, the clinical picture in the case of the helminth's death is very similar to an abscess of the eyelids or eyebrows. But there are also non-standard situations, as in our clinical case. The detected helminth was not the only one. After the detection of the first helminth, a pregnant patient was successfully operated on, the female dirofilaria was extracted. No specific treatment was prescribed given the patient's 27–28 weeks' gestation. After 3 weeks, the patient's complaints about movement under the skin of the eyelids, under the oral mucosa reappeared. But during this period between 32 and 33 weeks of gestation occurs antenatal fetal death. After discharge from the perinatal center, the patient returns to our clinic. During the operation, the second helminth is removed. The report presents the results of the study of the fetus and placenta. Is dirofilariasis harmless? Keywords: dirofilariasis, microfilariae, helminths, D. repens

In rare cases, cavernous sinus thrombosis can occur against the background of an even rarer disease – carotid-cavernous fistula. The carotid-cavernous fistula is a direct communication between the intracavernous part of the carotid artery and the cavernous sinus. The clinical picture of cavernous sinus thrombosis due to carotid-cavernous fistula may not have classic symptoms and cause difficulties in making a diagnosis, which can lead to incorrect treatment tactics. The presented clinical case demonstrates the nuances of differential diagnosis of cavernous sinus thrombosis against the background of carotid-cavernous fistula. Timely collection and analysis of complaints, anamnesis data, interpretation of objective examination data, results of the necessary instrumental research methods, coordinated work of doctors of various specialties (ophthalmologist, neurologist and neurosurgeon) will make it possible to establish an accurate diagnosis in a timely manner and prescribe an effective treatment for a favorable outcome of this pathology. Keywords: cavernous sinus thrombosis, carotid-cavernous fistula, ophthalmic manifestations, chemosis, diagnostics

The results of targeted drug delivery using to the main arterial vessels of the anterior part of the eye – the anterior ciliary arteries – were presented. Targeted drug delivery was performed by means of electrophoresis conducted over the zone of the episcleral depot, which was previously created by drug injection over the superior anterior ciliary artery. The study included patients with iridocyclitis both in the acute phase of inflammation and with residual signs of the inflammatory process. The effectiveness of the proposed method of treatment was shown, in which a sufficiently high concentration of the necessary drug in the iris and ciliary body was achieved. Such clinical advantages were obtained as shortening the patients treatment time and improvement of their functional results. The exact targeting of drug delivery was confirmed by fluorescein-angioscopic control. Keywords: iridocyclitis, treatment, targeted delivery, anterior ciliary arteries, electrophoresis

Ulcerative lesions of the cornea account for 47 to 70 % of all corneal diseases. In the case of a favorable course of corneal ulcers, opacification of varying degrees of intensity is formed. The currently existing methods of treating this pathology are not always effective, so the search for adequate models for experimental studies of new drugs is relevant. Purpose. To study the clinical and histological features of the healing of a corneal ulcer in rabbits. Material and methods. Animals were randomly divided into three groups of 29 rabbits (58 eyes) each. Rabbits of the first group received traditional treatment. Rabbits of the second and third groups underwent intrastromal administration of an antibiotic. The third group, against the background of traditional treatment, received a combination of intrastromal administration of an antibiotic into the cornea with PRP instillation. Animals underwent euthanasia on the 3rd, 5th, 10th, 14th and 21st days after infection of the cornea, 1 and 6 months after treatment. The results of the study showed that the timing of the decrease in the inflammatory response and the timing of the disappearance of purulent discharge in all three groups coincided (7th day) and amounted to 25.9 ± 5.7 %, 43.1 ± 6.5 % and 70.7 ± 6.0 % of cases, respectively. The number of epithelized ulcers by the 14th day of treatment in rabbits of the third groups is 3.4 and 1.7 times more than in rabbits of the 1st and 2nd groups, respectively. Histomorphological studies have shown that the inclusion of PRP in the complex therapy of corneal ulcers in the early stages of the inflammatory process in the cornea (the phase of alteration and exudation) leads to a reduction in the time of relief of the inflammatory process, accelerates the time of corneal epithelization.
