The Autumn Migration of the Citrine Wagtail, Motacilla Citreola, in the Lviv Region (W. Ukraine) During its Range Expansion
Authors: Hnatyna Oksana S. , Horban Ihor M. , Senyk Maryana A.
Published: January 2021

The Citrine Wagtail has been gradually expanding its breeding range from Asia westward into Europe since the middle of the last century. New breeding records of this species further to the west of Europe have emerged during the last several decades. The distribution of the Citrine Wagtail in Western Ukraine began at the end of the last century. A total of 48 Citrine Wagtails were ringed in August 1995–2016 at the Cholgynskyy ornithological reserve (West-Ukrainian Ornithological Station). The birds were recorded mainly in the first half of August, peaking from the beginning of the second decade to the middle of the month. At the beginning of August there were wagtails in different stages of moult. Adult moulted birds were recorded from the beginning of the second decade of August, while juvenile birds underwent partial moult during the first part of the month. The mean weight of adult moulted birds was higher than that of juveniles. At the beginning of August many Citrine Wagtails were lean, without fat reserves, with the mean fat class increasing by the end of the month. The autumn passage of M. citreola took place in W. Ukraine. Birds stay in the shallow waters, pastures, and reed beds to feed, overnight, moult and gain fat reserves for migration.

Published: January 2021

Background. Few data with adequate evidence exists as regards the effect of Cyclosporine (CsA) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) on pathological prognostic parameters in patients with steroid resistant focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). The purpose of the present study is to compare the effect of cyclosporin and mycophenolate mofetil in addition to steroids on functional and histopathologic renal parameters in patients with steroid resistant FSGS one year after treatment.

Material and methods. Thirty-seven adults with primary FSGS patients resistant to steroid therapy consecutively randomized to treatment with either MMF or cyclosporine. Low dose prednisolone added to both groups. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and blood pressure (BP) were determined at all examinations and a second renal biopsy was taken 12 months after treatment with either of cyclosporin and mycophenolate mofetil.

Results. GFR significantly increased in MMF group p < 0.01 after 6 months and unchanged after 12 months. On the other hand, GFR significantly decrease in CsA group p < 0.001 after 6 months and reduced more after 12 months p < 0.001 compared to base line levels. There was a significant difference of GFR between the 2 groups at 6 months p < 0.001. The extent of proteinuria decreased significantly in CsA group after 12 months p < 0.001. The extent of arteriolar hyalinosis increased significantly in CsA group (0.78 to 1.81 score, p < 0.001) but was unchanged in MMF group (0.93 to 0.96 score), whereas interstitial fibrosis increased to same level in both groups (grade 3).

Conclusion. Conversion to MMF in those patients may be superior to CsA as regards GFR after 12 months after treatment in spite of the presence of greater level of protein excretion. The increased arteriolar hyalinosis during CsA treatment most likely results in higher BP compared to MMF treatment in patients with FSGS resistant to steroids.

Authors: Cotigă Alin Cristinel , Ivan Claudiu , Nica Silvia , Zivari Mirela
Published: January 2021

Introduction: Hospital admissions fell dramatically in Romania during the COVID-19 pandemic partially due to urgent legislation for controlling the infection rates that influenced the selection criteria for hospitalization and also due to fear of infection with SARS-CoV-2 which resulted in avoiding medical services.

Aim: This study aimed to assess the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the population availability to access medical services by comparing the admission rates for all departments of the University Emergency Hospital, Bucharest, from March to August 2019 and March to August 2020.

Methods: A cohort of 38.730 patients was analyzed according to hospitalization rate from March to August 2019 and March to August 2020.

Results: From March to August 2020 patients were hospitalized as a result of a medical emergency rather than an appointment, as outpatient and hospitalization rates changed dramatically. Thus, 67.4% accessed hospitalization from March to August 2019 and 32.6% accessed hospitalization from March to August 2020. The proportion of the patients admitted from the Ambulatory Care Unit decreased significantly from 44.2% in 2019 to 32.7% in 2020. Also, the structure of the patients’ profile has been affected.

Discussion: The COVID-19 pandemic period in 2020 (March-September) affected the hospitalization rate and the structure of the patients’ profile that came to the University Emergency Hospital in Bucharest, Romania.

Conclusion: The patients who would have accessed the medical health services that might have resulted in hospitalization could have resulted in out-of-hospital deaths and this should also be the focus of the public health authorities.

Authors: Nica Silvia , Eremia Irina-Anca , Albu Maria-Adriana , Cursaru Adrian , Albu Siegfried-Daniel
Published: January 2021

Introduction: The study weighs the impact of accidents involving electric scooters and motorcycles, its main purpose being that of showing the injuries produced by the use of electric scooters.

Materials and method: The retrospective study was conducted in the Emergency Unit of the University Emergency Hospital Bucharest, Romania, between 01.06.2020 and 30.09.2020, by analyzing the data from the presentation sheets and the hospital database. It followed and compared a total of 55 cases, out of which 29 patients were involved in motorcycle accidents, and 26 patients were involved in electric scooter accidents, by number, age, sex, imaging investigations, severity of injuries, hospitalization days, and the treatment of discharged patients.

General data about the number of analyzed presentations was extracted and compared to similar data from the same period of the year 2019.

Results: The study showed an increase in presentations due to electric scooter accidents. Also, most of the injuries in both types of accidents are musculoskeletal (96.5% in motorcycle accidents and 84.61% in electric scooter accidents), and the percentage of discharged patients who needed immobilization by various orthopedic devices was higher in electric scooter accidents (34.8%) than in motorcycle accidents (26%).

Discussions: The study was conducted in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, in an atypical situation, due to regulations imposed by the authorities.

Conclusion: There was an increase in the use of electric scooters in the summer of 2020, which resulted in an increased number of mainly orthopedic injuries, and implicitly of immobilization for discharged patients, underestimated by the population, as protective equipment is not mandatory for people aged over 16 years.
The Agricultural Reform of 1981 and the Competition for Resources Between Peasant Farms and State-Owned Farms in the 1980s
Authors: Grala Dariusz T.
Published: January 2021

In the economy of the Polish People’s Republic in the field of agriculture, the key resources which were a subject of competition included: land; production assets (machines, devices, tools for agricultural production, fertilizers, plant protection chemicals) and people necessary to work on farms and for farms. The command economy of the times of the People’s Republic of Poland was an example of an economy of permanent shortages, which increased in times of crises of the entire system. The collapse of 1979-1982 was such a socio-economic crisis. The Trade Union of Independent Farmers’ “Solidarity”, which was part of the great social protest movement in 1980-1981, forced a change in the communist regime’s approach to the peasantry and, together with other pressure groups, contributed to the implementation of the agricultural reform covering the entire sphere of agriculture and not only its state farm segment. The reform of 1981, initiated by the Rzeszów-Ustrzyki agreements, gradually changed the living situation of farmers and, above all, led to changes in the profitability of agricultural production and the legalization of trade in meat products at marketplaces as well as the release of prices for food products in 1989. Peasant farms won the competition with state-owned farms for capital resources – new production factors, and they expanded their land acreage (land factor). Farmers, however, were losing competition for workers in confrontation with industry and services in cities and state-owned farms, where farm workers could count on very generous social benefits.
Entrepreneurs and Entrepreneurship in the Exposé of the Prime Ministers: From Tadeusz Mazowiecki to Mateusz Morawiecki
Authors: Kamosiński Sławomir
Published: January 2021

The Prime Minister’s program speech, called the exposé, attracts particular attention. Its essence comes down to presenting the government’s program. In a few key words, the Prime Minister often summarizes the framework proposals of his government in terms of economic policy, social policy, education, health care, the army as well as individual social and professional groups. The words spoken by the Prime Minister, asking for confidence in the government that has just been formed set the direction for the entire Council of Ministers for subsequent years. In this regard, there is a need to examine the economic policy of every Prime Minister in office since 1989 considering entrepreneurs. What offer did the heads of government make to entrepreneurs, what kind of support could this group count on, how were the institutions supporting the economy and political institutions evaluated? The aim of this article is to find answers to the presented problems.
Analysis of Public Transport Services with Various Criteria
Authors: Braniš Marek , Šulík Matej , Takacs Jakub , Schlosser Tibor
Published: January 2021

With the current worldwide trend of increasing individual car traffic in urban road networks, public transport has become one of the key issues for the sustainable future of transport in cities, especially when the level of automobilization is growing rapidly. Many cities are already at the capacity limit of an existing road network. Therefore, many cities are trying to solve the question of how to improve the existing systems of public transport to become more attractive for their citizens. The quality of the public transport service from a passenger’s point of view is not only about the number of links and their occupancy, but also about the time and distance availability of stops and stations. When we were creating the general master plan for one small Slovak town, we tried to take various criteria into account. Of course, it was also necessary to carry out traffic surveys to determine the occupancy of public transport systems, but equally important was to determine the isochrones and isodistances of the passengers. The lessons learned and complications that arose from the preparation and realization of the actual analysis of the results in the creation of the general master plan are set out in the contribution.
Earth, man, heaven: The spiritual aspects of physical exercise
Authors: Živković Ivica
Published: January 2021

New scientific discoveries in the quantum physics give us possibility in a new way to perceive the relation between physical exercise and the Christian theology of creation, in accordance with the basic hypotheses of the theoanthropocentric theory of the development of physical culture. Man's role in the world, especially in his motion, is to mediate, that is to be agent of connecting or bridge between the creation and its Creator. Motion is the reflection of human intellectual, emotional and spiritual condition, and body is a tool for the realization of harmony among them. It is therefore an instrument of love to God, in mutual giving and acceptance in which the field of all creation is actuated.
Historical process of development the mass physical culture theory in Ukraine
Authors: Ivashchenko Sergii
Published: January 2021

This article presents the results of studying the issue of the historical process of development the theory of mass physical culture in Ukraine. Based on the results of the analysis and synthesis of information obtained from domestic and foreign sources of scientific literature, we came to the conclusion that the process of historical development of the theory of mass physical culture in different regions of Ukraine took place with varying degrees of intensity. The analysis of statistical data for many years in different parts of Ukraine indicates that the origin and development of the theory of mass physical culture took place at different times. Historically, the need for such a theory has matured depending on the level of economic development of the region. So, for example, this process proceeded more intensively in those regions of Ukraine where industry and agriculture were more developed. In view of the fact that in these regions there was a high demand for labor, the question arose about maintaining the health of large masses of the population by means of physical culture. Therefore, in the Kharkov, Kiev, Dnieper, Zaporozhe and Lvov regions, wide networks of sports institutions began to develop, and the promotion of mass physical culture events was carried out at a higher level. Scientists have stepped up their activities, developing programs of mass physical education, adapted to the potential capabilities of the inhabitants of these regions and contributing to the strengthening of the health of the population, as well as the development of physical qualities necessary for effective work at enterprises and fields of the country. The most intensive process of involving the broad masses of the population in the movement of mass physical culture took place during the years of intensive construction of industrial facilities and the development of virgin lands.

Published: January 2021

One of the contending issues in Nigeria in the recent time is external debt and exchange rate fluctuations. In view of the above, this study examined the relationship between external debt and exchange rate fluctuations in Nigeria over the period of 1981 to 2018. Consequently, the study employed Autoregressive Distribution Lag Model to address the objective of the study. The major findings that originated in this paper are as follows: external debt, debt service payment and foreign reserve have a significant positive impact on exchange rate fluctuations in the short run in Nigeria. Furthermore, based on these findings, recommendations are made for the policy makers that external debt as a means of financing budget deficit should be minimized if not totally discouraged in Nigeria because its servicing in particular and repayment put pressure on foreign exchange market in the short run and thereby leads to exchange rate fluctuations in terms of depreciation of naira in the country. Also, country’s foreign reserve should be strengthened through the implementation of aggressive export promotion policy in Nigeria.
Effectiveness of the Compound Helicopter Configuration in Rotorcraft Performance Increase
Authors: Stanisławski Jarosław
Published: January 2021

The article presents the results of calculations applied to compare flight envelopes of varying helicopter configurations. Performance of conventional helicopter with the main and tail rotors, in the case of compound helicopter, can be improved by applying wings and pusher propellers which generate an additional lift and horizontal thrust. The simplified model of a helicopter structure, consisting of a stiff fuselage and the main rotor treated as a stiff disk, is applied for evaluation of the rotorcraft performance and the required range of control system deflections. The more detailed model of deformable main rotor blades, applying the Galerkin method, is used to calculate rotor loads and blade deformations in defined flight states. The calculations of simulated flight states are performed considering data of a hypothetical medium class helicopter with the take-off mass of 6,000kg. In the case of both of the helicopter configurations, the articulated main rotor hub is taken under consideration. According to the Galerkin method, the elastic blade model allows to compute blade deformations as a combination of the blade bending and torsional eigen modes. Introduction of additional wing and pusher propellers allows to increase the range of operational speed over 300 km/h. Results of the simulation are presented as time-runs of rotor loads and blade deformations and in a form of disk distribution plots of rotor parameters. The simulation method can be useful in defining requirements for a high speed rotorcraft.

Published: January 2021

The development of technology is growing rapidly; one of the most popular among the scientist is robotics technology. Recently, the robot was created to resemble the function of the human brain. Robots can make decisions without being helped by humans, known as AI (Artificial Intelligent). Now, this technology is being developed so that it can be used in wheeled vehicles, where these vehicles can run without any obstacles. Furthermore, of research, Nvidia introduced an autonomous vehicle named Nvidia Dave-2, which became popular. It showed an accuracy rate of 90%. The CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) method is used in the track recognition process with input in the form of a trajectory that has been taken from several angles. The data is trained using Jupiter's notebook, and then the training results can be used to automate the movement of the robot on the track where the data has been retrieved. The results obtained are then used by the robot to determine the path it will take. Many images that are taken as data, precise the results will be, but the time to train the image data will also be longer. From the data that has been obtained, the highest train loss on the first epoch is 1.829455, and the highest test loss on the third epoch is 30.90127. This indicates better steering control, which means better stability.
Ksyloteki, czyli patroszenie lasu
Authors: Arendt Ada
Published: January 2021

Obierając za punkt wyjścia niemiecką tradycję tworzenia ksylotek, czyli bibliotek zawierających próbki drewna ucharakteryzowane na książki, przypominam biografię Wiktora Kozłowskiego (1791–1858), pierwszego polskiego twórcy ksylotek, leśnika, kolekcjonera i autora słowników terminologii leśnej na tle historii organizacji rządowej służby leśnej w Królestwie Polskim. Opisuję, jak reorganizacja leśnictwa w duchu oświeceniowego projektu dominacji nad przyrodą wywołała niepokój, który znalazł wyraz między innymi w operze Karola Kurpińskiego Leśniczy z Kozienickiej Puszczy. W pierwszej połowie XIX wieku zestawiano postaci „młodego” i „starego” leśniczego, zapowiadające rozdźwięk między oświeceniowym i romantycznym podejściem do świata przyrody. Ksyloteki Wiktora Kozłowskiego reprezentują podejście oświeceniowe – związane z pasją katalogowania, preparowania i obiektywizowania jako narzędzi kontroli.
>>Wyłaniam kraje kory pękate<<. (Współ)drzewna poetyka Krystyny Miłobędzkiej
Authors: Lekowska Daria
Published: January 2021

Szkic stanowi próbę ulokowania poezji Krystyny Miłobędzkiej w kontekście ekopoetyki i sprawdzenia, czy tak ukierunkowane odczytanie otworzy liryczną twórczość poetki na nowe praktyki interpretacyjne, cieszące się coraz większym zainteresowaniem badawczym. W omówieniach dorobku autorki Anaglifów motywy i tematy przyrodnicze pojawiają się stosunkowo często, jednak do tej pory rzadko traktowane były jako główny, samodzielny przedmiot analizy. Szkic poprzez interpretację poszczególnych utworów pokazuje, w jaki sposób natura, w tym wypadku zwłaszcza pojawiające się pod różną postacią drzewa, na przestrzeni publikowanych kolejno tomów kształtują wyobraźnię pisarską Miłobędzkiej i wpisują się w wypracowany przez nią projekt poetycki, wykraczający poza ramy strategii literackiej, którego założenia pozwalają umieścić go w obszarze ekopoetyki.
„Gloria victis” Elizy Orzeszkowej
Authors: Bursztyńska Halina
Published: January 2021

Przedmiotem artykułu jest opowiadanie Elizy Orzeszkowej Gloria victis z 1910 roku. Autorka ukazuje napięcie pomiędzy romantyczną z ducha ideową koncepcją utworu o powstańczym zrywie 1863 roku a modernistycznym obrazowaniem i wrażliwością estetyczną. Zwraca uwagę na konsekwencje narracji prowadzonej z perspektywy leśnej przyrody (wiatru, drzew): symbolizm mitu eleuzyńskiego, techniki impresjonizmu i ekspresjonizmu oraz brutalny naturalizm w opisach śmierci i umierania. Eksponuje zarysowaną przez Orzeszkową dychotomię historii (i niepamięci) i biologii (cyklu natury).
O „Drzewie” Wiesława Myśliwskiego i kilku dendrologicznych tropach literatury polskiej po 1989 roku
Authors: Kulesza Dariusz
Published: January 2021

Autor analizuje i interpretuje najważniejszy literacki tekst dendrologiczny polskiej literatury powojennej, czyli dramat Drzewo Wiesława Myśliwskiego. Rozpoznaje go jako typowy przykład symbiotyczno-toksycznego związku między Polską i literaturą, decydującego także o tym, jak funkcjonuje w polskiej literaturze świat roślin. Sytuacja zmienia się po roku 1989. Jej konsekwencją jest dzisiejsza, ekologiczna i polityczna ekspansja ekokrytyki, którą najskuteczniej reprezentują utwory Olgi Tokarczuk. Obok nich pojawiają się w tekście inne dendrologiczne tropy  reprezentowane w polskiej literaturze współczesnej między innymi przez teksty Andrzeja Stasiuka, Michała Witkowskiego, Wojciecha Wencla, Jana Leończuka i Andrzeja Sapkowskiego. Próba ich uporządkowania wydaje się zarówno potrzebna, jak i nieskuteczna.

Stefan Żeromski: koncepcje narracji dendrologicznych. Zarys problematyki
Authors: Olszewska Maria Jolanta
Published: January 2021

Stefan Żeromski w szczególny, złożony sposób wykorzystywał motywy dendrologiczne w swojej twórczości. Drzewa (las, puszcza, ogród) są nie tylko tłem akcji jego utworów, ale stanowią także ważny nośnik różnych treści: egzystencjalnych, metafizycznych, historycznych. Są elementami doświadczania czasu i przestrzeni, stają się znakiem pamięci, jak i figurą rzeczywistości. Opisy te pojawiają się już w młodzieńczych Dziennikach. Szczególnego znaczenia nabierają jodły w opisach puszczy, na przykład w Popiołach i w Puszczy jodłowej, sosny w Ludziach bezdomnych, brzozy w Róży i Urodzie życia. Jeden z najbardziej przejmujących obrazów dendrologicznych niesie Zemsta jest moją…, gdzie pisarz zbudował model świata, odwołując się do motywu drzew i ich elementów. Drzewa w twórczości Żeromskiego podlegają symbolizacji i funkcjonują często na zasadzie Jungowskich archetypów. Warto wskazać na pewne podobieństwa z ujęciem motywów dendrologicznych u Orzeszkowej czy Rodziewiczówny, a także u Jarosława Iwaszkiewicza.

Authors: Karademir Başaran
Published: January 2021

Minerals have crucial roles in terms of vital function in the organism including hormones, enzymes, cell formation etc. Oxidative stress and related hormones, regarding infectious diseases, affect all functions of body including mineral taking, metabolism and excretion. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the pox disease on blood minerals composition of sheep and lambs. This study was conducted on 20 healthy sheep, 20 poxvirus infected sheep and their lambs (Totally 80 subjects). One-shot blood samples from sheep and lambs were collected and serums were separated immediately. Serum mineral levels were analysed in the atomic absorption spectrophotometer. In general, the level of Cu in infected animals was higher than in healthy ones. Zn, Fe, Mg and Na levels of healthy animals were found higher than infected subjects. The difference between healthy and infected animal groups for serum Ca and K levels was not significant. Positive correlations were found between serum Zn, Fe, Mg and Na levels. However, a negative correlation was found between Cu-Zn and Cu-Fe pairs. Consequently, Cu, Zn, Fe, Mg and Na levels in serum, which are vital for animal organisms, showed significant changes in sheep and their lambs during poxvirus infection. To rapid healing or prevention of the diseases, mineral disorders must be corrected urgently.

The microscopic features of the testis were studied in gonadally inactive Khaki Campbell duck (Anas platyrhynchos domesticus) in Bangladesh. The study was conducted in the Department of Anatomy & Histology, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh. Five adult healthy birds of one-year-old were used for this study. The testes were collected immediately after ethical killing of the birds for histological observations. The collected tissue samples were then processed and stained with Hematoxylene & Eosin (H & E) stain for histological observations. The seminiferous tubules showed considerable involution with cessation of spermatogenesis. The basal lamina of the seminiferous tubules was irregular in outline and was invaginated into the germinal epithelium in the form of finger-like plicae or folds. Most of the lumen of the seminiferous tubules was empty and all generation of germ cells were not present in most of the seminifeous tubules. The interstitium showed a relative increase in volume and interstitial tissue consisted of loose connective tissue, interstitial cells (Leydig cells), few connective cells and blood vessels. This study first time described the microscopic features of testis of Khaki Campbell ducks in Bangladesh during inactive phases of the reproductive cycle.
