Tracing sharing in an imperative pure calculus
Authors: Giannini P , Richter T , Servetto Marco , Zucca E
Published: November 2020

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. We introduce a type and effect system, for an imperative object calculus, which infers sharing possibly introduced by the evaluation of an expression, represented as an equivalence relation among its free variables. This direct representation of sharing effects at the syntactic level allows us to express in a natural way, and to generalize, widely-used notions in literature, notably uniqueness and borrowing. Moreover, the calculus is pure in the sense that reduction is defined on language terms only, since they directly encode store. The advantage of this non-standard execution model with respect to a behaviorally equivalent standard model using a global auxiliary structure is that reachability relations among references are partly encoded by scoping.

Azoospermia occurs in approximately 10% of men with infertility and can occur due to obstruction of the reproductive tract (obstructive azoospermia) or lack of sperm production. Assessing the hormonal status of men can provide prognostic information on the effectiveness of surgical sperm removal for their further use in assisted reproductive technology programs. Before performing a testicular biopsy to establish a histological diagnosis and search for sperm in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia, it is advisable to assess the chances of obtaining sperm. The purpose of the study was to assess hormonal levels and sperm parameters during microsurgery in men with non-obstructive azoospermia. Material and methods. We analyzed the medical records of 45 men with non-obstructive azoospermia who underwent micro-TESE in the period from 2016 to 2019. We noted the data on the age of patients, their hormonal profile (level of follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone and testosterone) were analyzed and morphofunctional characteristics of the obtained spermatozoa. Results and discussion. In our study, testosterone levels were significantly higher in patients in group 1, which may be due to the fact that men in this group were significantly younger. Sperm were removed from 10 (22%) patients with non-obstructive azoospermia. The probability of sperm removal decreased with increasing age of patients. The average concentration of sperm in the samples was (2.3±0.8) million, of which active (18.0±0.3)%. Morphological analysis of sperm revealed that the frequency of abnormalities of the head was 19.9±2.45, neck – 13.69±1.49, tail – (5.96±1.52)%. Mixed pathology, which involved defects of the head, neck and middle part were at the level of (34.6±4.21)%. The frequency of sperm neck abnormalities was (13.7±1.5)%. The most numerous were abnormalities associated with the presence of cytoplasmic residues on the surface of the sperm. The number of sperm with tail pathology was at the level of (5.9±1.5)%. In general, the mixed pathology, in which defects of the head, neck and middle part were involved, was at the level of (34.6±4.2)%. Conclusion. In this study, the frequency of positive micro-TESE, i.e. surgical procedures after which sperm were removed, was 22.2%. Morphological analysis of the drugs revealed that among the identified pathologies, most of them were sperm with the presence of one large or several small vacuoles. The number of vacuoles, their size and shape reflect defects at the level of compaction of the sperm nucleus. It has been shown that embryos formed after fertilization of oocytes with such sperm do not undergo reproductive selection and can stop in the early stages of development

Respiratory disorders in obesity occur even in the absence of bronchopulmonary pathology, and in their presence, an excess of adipose tissue worsens the prognosis of the disease. Obese people have a high risk of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, hypoventilation syndrome, bronchial hyperreactivity, pneumonia, pulmonary hypertension. The purpose of the study was to determine the effectiveness of using physical therapy in the correction of signs of respiratory system dysfunction in women with abdominal obesity. Material and methods. The study involved 172 women with abdominal obesity of I-III degrees, diagnosed by body mass index and the ratio of waist and hip circumferences. According to the results of the definition of the rehabilitation (therapeutic) alliance, they were divided into two groups. The comparison group consisted of women with a low level of alliance that refused to actively participate in the program of weight loss. The main group consisted of women with a high level of alliance; they underwent a one-year correction program using nutritional modification, increased physical activity, lymphatic drainage, psychocorrection, and elements of respiratory physical therapy. The control group consisted of 32 women with normal body weight. Subjective state, dyspnea intensity, pulsоoximetry and spirometry parameters were studied. Results and discussion. We revealed the respiratory system dysfunction in women with abdominal obesity: subjective signs of impaired respiratory function, a decrease in arterial blood oxygenation, and a decrease in spirometry volumes. Their content and severity were proportional to the severity of obesity. Using respiratory therapy elements in the program of complex physical therapy aimed at reducing body weight let us normalize the studied parameters of the respiratory system function in women of the main group. The low level of the rehabilitation alliance of women in the comparison group led to unsatisfactory implementation of the recommendations provided and was associated with a lack of rehabilitation effect. Improvement in the state of the bronchopulmonary system in women with abdominal obesity is justified both by primary changes in the respiratory system – an increase in spirometry volumes and reserves, improved blood oxygenation, and indirectly – by an increase in the range of motion of the diaphragm, a decrease in the amount of visceral fat and general fitness, which is confirmed by the leveling of signs of restrictive and mixed respiratory failure. Conclusion. It is advisable to include the elements of respiratory rehabilitation in the programs for restoring the health of women with abdominal obesity

Authors: Vasetskaya N. О.
Published: November 2020

The processes of globalisation and internalisation in the world community, the development of high technologies and new industries, the digitalisation of the economy lead to the need for training with a fundamentally new set of competencies to meet the needs of customer organisations. The article is devoted to the study of cognitive competencies as key components in the structure of a university graduate’s personality in the knowledge-digital economy, which is in demand in the labour market. The article deals with the trend of changing the educational paradigm, based on updating the methodology of the modern educational process, including through the integration of educational, research and innovation activities as a strategy for the development of the modern economy. The necessity of inclusion in the list of key competencies of graduates. The author also discusses the concept of “cognitive competence” formulated by leading scientists involved in the study of this problem. The article presents the author’s model and structure of cognitive competencies developed for University graduates in the new economy, which is a set of development of mental, physical, emotional and spiritual intelligence. The author paid special attention to the fundamentally new role of the teacher in the educational process, in which the student does not just receive information from the teacher, but learns the methodology of independent “production” of knowledge.
Effectiveness of Reforming the Budget Network in the Health Sector in the 2010s
Authors: Sokolov I. A. , Filippova I. N.
Published: November 2020

Over the last decade, the health care system in Russia has carried out significant reforms: changes in the budget network regulation, the introduction of financing standards, the May Decree No. 597 implementation regarding specific categories medical organizations employees’ salaries, the transition to single-channel financing. At the same time, the results are ambiguous: against the background of noticeable optimization achievements, while maintaining the indicators of surgery operations performed, and patients served, there was an increase in the overall mortality rate in the country. This study aims to evaluate the effect of health care reforms in the 2010s. The data envelopment analyses (DEA) used to estimate the government regional health sector efficiency to reveal the most and the least efficient regions. Then the factors with the most significant impact on the resulting performance indicator are identified. Among such factors, the organizational and legal structure of the region budget network and the transition to single-channel financing dummy variable are analysed. The results show that the transformation of institutions into autonomous ones according to the Federal law 83-FZ did not have a positive impact on the efficiency of the regional health care system. At the same time, the transition to single-channel funding has had some positive effects, which, however, has not been sustainable over time, and therefore more research is needed after the later periods’ data accumulation. Although the changes had some impact on the performance of the budget network institutions, they did not solve the fundamental problems of the health system, such as chronic underfunding and regional differentiation.
Sanctions and Foreign Direct Investment: Damage to Russia and Sanctioning Countries
Authors: Kazantsev S. V.
Published: November 2020

The volume and dynamics of foreign investments are formed under the influence of many conditions and circumstances. The author of this article examines the impact of one class of factors that determine the dynamics and geographical structure of Russia’s foreign direct investment inflows outflows. These are anti-Russian sanctions imposed by a group of States in 2014 to isolate the Russian Federation in the field of politics, finance and economy, science and technology, information and culture. For these countries, Russia is not a priority investment target. The share of the Russian Federation varied from two to five per cent, and rarely exceeded 10 per cent of the total volume of these countries foreign direct investment net outflows in 2007–2018. The author presented in this article the positive and negative aspects of foreign direct investment, their dynamics before and after the imposition of sanctions. In particular, the author shows that the reduction in the foreign direct investment net inflows from Russia to the sanctioning countries was less significant for the leading EU States — Germany, France and United Kingdom — than for many other sanctioning countries The cuts in Russia’s foreign direct investment net outflows had almost no impact on the United States who was the main initiator of anti-Russian sanctions.
After Helping the Poor — Don’t Sleep Well (Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences 2019)
Authors: Voronov Yu. P.
Published: November 2020

The article presents three Nobel Prize winners in economic sciences 2019 as well as the results of their researches. The paper highlights the primary goal of the laureates’ research aimed at improving the effectiveness of foreign aid to poor countries. Along with this, the author considered three achievements of the winners noted by the Nobel Committee: randomized field experiments, establishing new links between microeconomics and macroeconomics, the original method of research on the causes of poverty. The winners showed that financial assistance to poor countries should be accompanied, and possibly preceded, by pilot studies of the effectiveness of this assistance. The primary way to improve the efficiency of foreign aid laureates see in creating conditions for self-improvement of their situation by low-income families. And this, according to the laureates, can be achieved through solving the problems of health and education in countries receiving foreign aid. To verify that idea the laureates conducted experiments in Kenya, India, other countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. The author also provides evidence that foreign aid to poor countries is less than cash flows going in the opposite direction.
Internal Sources of Labour Productivity Growth in Russia
Authors: Balatsky E. V. , Ekimova N. A.
Published: November 2020

In this article, the authors analysed the readiness of Russian regions for the integration of technological innovations. In this context, managerial dichotomy “borrowing/creation of innovations” is of fundamental importance. The right choice of the way to increase productivity in the regions of the country represents a nontrivial task since the wrong solution would lead to significant economic losses. The authors proposed to use the concept of technological boundary to increase objectivity managerial decisions making. “Technological boundary” means the relative productivity of the region corresponding to the average productivity in the United States, the excess of which allows the region to develop new production technologies. The use of the concept of technological frontier and comparison of labour productivity in the Russian regions showed that only two regions in the country could act as drivers for the development of their own new technologies. At the same time, the available data and calculations show that in many regions there are leading companies of different industries with extremely high productivity and ability to act as innovative local drivers within the regions. This circumstance made it possible to formulate a multi-step strategy to accelerate the technological diffusion for Russia.

The relevance of the article is because in parallel with the processes of introduction of innovations in the field of automation and computerization of the banking system, the number of types of banking risks associated with innovations in the field of on-line customer service and internal Bank reporting, as well as information systems. As a result of this article, we have studied the latest legislative acts of the Central Bank of Russia as a mega-regulator and summarized the practice of both individual credit institutions and the banking sector in the field of information technology development risks in the banking sector. To strengthen the development of new financial technologies in the digital economy, it is necessary to regularly discuss the emergence of new phenomena and innovations; to consider the possibility of further analysis of existing methodological developments to exchange best practices of banks. Building an effective it security risk management system is not a one-time project. Still, a complex process is important, focused on minimizing external and internal threats and taking into account the limitations on resources and time factor

Published: November 2020

The article presents the results of applying the elements of the object security research methodology in the study of one of the threats hanging over society — pandemic COVID‑19. In this particular object, the author of the article tried to show the general, inherent in the collective concept of “a national security threat”. Knowledge of a common for all threats (the general) characteristics and particular one to each of them allows us to organise the protection of the object better, prepare to stop the threat and eliminate the consequences of its emergence. Based on the Federal State Statistics Service of the Russian Federation official data, the author shows a deterioration of the state of public health and science in modern Russia. The article also presents a mathematical model, used by the author to calculate the results of two ways to slow the spread of coronavirus infection. The first way is the isolation of citizens, second — the use of personal protective equipment. In particular, the conducted research confirmed two well-known theoretical statements. First, in studying the process of emergence of threats and in estimating the damage caused by them, it is advisable to rely on the results of model calculations. Second, when choosing counteraction measures, it is reasonable to search for the best combination of them.

A new cobalt(II) complex of 5-phenyl-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazine (PPTA), [Co(PPTA)2(NO3)2] (1), is prepared and identified by the elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of 1 reveals an octahedrally coordinated cobalt(II) complex containing two chelating N2-donor PPTA and two O-donor nitrato ligands in trans-conformation. In addition to hydrogen bonds in the crystal network of 1, there are π—π stacking interactions between aromatic rings of the adjacent complex molecules (pyridine⋯pyridine and pyridine⋯triazine). The ability of complex 1 to interact with nine selected biomacromolecules (BRAF kinase, CatB, DNA gyrase, HDAC7, rHA, RNR, TrxR, TS, Top II) is investigated by docking studies. The results show that in many cases, the studied compound can interact with proteins better than doxorubicin.
Ukrainian prisoners’ of war worldview formation through printed word: national-educational mission of the magazine “Educational Leaflet” at Wetzlar Camp, Germany (1916)
Authors: Sribniak Ihor , Schneider Viktor
Published: November 2020

The article analyzes the degree of influence of media texts published on the pages of the camp magazine “Educational Leaflet” on the process of instilling in Ukrainian prisoners the idea of national-state self-affirmation of Ukraine during 1916. The aim of the research is to establish the peculiarities of the formation of the worldview of the captured Ukrainians of the Wetzlar camp by means of the printed word on the pages of the magazine “Educational Leaflet” in the outlined chronological period. The historical method, source analysis and synthesis were used to effectively achieve the goal. As a result of the research it was established that the publication of the mentioned magazine became possible thanks to the organizational and financial assistance of the Union for the Liberation of Ukraine, whose representatives were in the camp Wetzlar since September 1915. After a short preparatory period (when the newspaper was printed almost by hand on a typewriter) in early 1916, it began to be printed by the city printing house twice a month. It was established that the mentioned magazine truthfully recorded the everyday life of Ukrainian prisoners of war, recording both individual manifestations of their lives and giving a general picture of the activities of the Ukrainian camp community. At the same time, with its publications, the newspaper had a strong influence on the formation of the national and political worldview of the prisoners, publishing materials on the course of socio-political processes in Ukraine and Russia. Thanks to this, the magazine gained the support of the majority of Ukrainian prisoners, serving them as almost the only “window” into the world of politics, public life and art. The most important feature of the “Educational Leaflet” was the Ukrainian-centricity of all its materials, which helped the prisoners to learn national-state ideals. The novelty of the study lies in the introduction into scientific circulation of an array of sources on the specifics of the functioning of the community of captured Ukrainian soldiers in the camp Wetzlar (1916). The practical significance of the study is that its results will significantly expand the range of sources needed to reconstruct the holistic history of the functioning of the Ukrainian captive community in the Wetzlar camp in 1916.

Tragic fool of French literature as a topos of identity (from Victor Hugo and Paul Verlaine artistic experience)
Authors: Halchuk Oksana
Published: November 2020

The symbol, as an archetype with inexhaustible meanings, remains a relevant object of scientific research. Especially when it comes to symbols used by different national cultures. One of such symbols, an image of the tragic fool, is quite favoured by the writers of romanticism and the turn of the twentieth century. A general interest in their artistic and aesthetic systems, the multiplicity of interpretations of archsymbols, and the specifics of their authorial and national manifestations in literature determine the relevance of this study. The subject of the study is the specifics of the image of the tragic fool in the works the French writers iconic for romanticism (Victor Hugo) and symbolism (Paul Verlaine). Historical and literary, comparative and typological, archetypal scientific methods are used in the work. Their potential made it possible to consider the functioning peculiarities of the image of a tragic fool through the prism of identity. The broad context of this problem made it possible to solve several objectives: to outline the origins of the image; determine the factors of its actualization in the romanticism and modernism works; and analyze the authors’ versions of interpretation. Herein is the novelty of the study. The results of the study are as follows: in French literature of romanticism and symbolism — given such a common ideological and artistic basis for their aesthetics as individualism — in Hugo’s romance the tragic fool is a grotesque mark of the era, a symbol of unresolved complex social problems. In contrast, the symbolist Verlaine perceives the tragic fool an alter ego of the contemporary artist in particular and a man of the era in general, giving preference to aesthetic and philosophical priorities over social. The high potential of the autobiographical content of the image of the tragic fool is a peculiar feature of the modernist interpretation. He functions both as a lyrical hero and a mask of an autolyrical character. In literary mystifications, it is a character under a double mask. In the artist’s chosen strategy of realization of the life scenario, this symbol is expressed in the form of feigned asociality, épater le bourgeois, primitivism as an imitation of creativity, self-parody. Further studies are promising; the image of the tragic fool in various national literatures is a common tool for writers to mockingly demonstrate the “interior” of the social and world order. At the same time, the tragic accent of this image lies in the tradition to perceive one’s work as a manifesto of “hateful love” for one’s time, homeland, and the world.

MICROWAVE TRAVELLING WAVE TUBE - A SUMMARY OF AN ANALYTICAL, NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL THERMAL ANALYSIS
Authors: Wymysłowski Artur , Wiejak Waldemar , Słupski Piotr
Published: November 2020

Travelling Wave Tube (TWT) is an electronic vacuum microwave device, which is used as a high power microwave amplifier, mainly in telecommunication purposes and radar systems. TWT's seem to be an alternative and a more reliable solution than semiconductor devices when building high power and high frequency applications. Thermal behaviour of TWT is one of the key aspects influencing its reliability and working parameters. In fact, the standard TWT is treated as a high power device and the supplied power is dissipated mainly through conduction and convection phenomena. In practical applications, depending on a type of TWT, they can be cooled either by a forced liquid or air circulation. The main goal of the presented research was to perform analytical, experimental and numerical analysis of temperature distribution of a low band TWT in case of a typical working condition. Because theoretical analysis seems to be very complex, thus it was decided to support it with experimental measurements and numerical simulations as well as with the simplified analytical formulas. As a first step of the presented research, the analytical analysis and numerical modelling of the helix TWT was carried out. The objective of the thermal analysis was to assess the temperature distribution in different parts of the helix TWT assembly during extreme standard and working conditions. Afterwards, the obtained numerical results were validated by experimental measurements, which were carried out using a custom designed TWT test sample and corresponding experimental measurement tools.

Published: November 2020

A descriptive type of study on the impacts of typhoon Nona was conducted from August 2016 to January 2017 in the selected coastal barangays of Biri, Lavezares, Rosario, and San Jose, (Biri-LaRoSa) which form part of the Biri-LaRoSa seascape and landscape of the province of Northern Samar. It focused on the impacts of the typhoon to the coastal environment and its socio-economic effect. Actual field sampling was done for the quantitative assessment of the coastal ecosystems. Participatory Resource Appraisal (PRA) tools were used for the qualitative assessment. Biri area has a total of 23.5% partially damaged trees and 9.4% totally damaged trees in the mangrove ecosystem; 51.7% damage to the seagrass beds; and 79.1% damage to the corals. Lavezares area has a total of 32.5% partially damaged trees and 9.5% totally damaged trees in the mangrove ecosystem; 47.9% damage to the seagrass beds; and 76.5% damage to the corals. Rosario area has a total of 33% partially damaged trees and 5.8% totally damaged trees in the mangrove ecosystem; 47.6% damage to the seagrass beds; and 36.1% damage to the corals. San Jose area has a total of 39.6% partially damaged trees and 7.6% totally damaged trees in the mangrove ecosystem; 48% damage to the seagrass beds; and 56.8% damage to the corals. Typhoon Nona greatly affected the ecosystems in the sampling sites and in turn affected the socio-economic conditions of ‘the locals, especially those who are dependent on the coastal resources both for food and income. Both results of the PRA and actual field assessment support this claim.
