Published: December 2020

Врожденные расщелины лица относятся к наиболее тяжелой по своим последствиям патологии челюстно-лицевой области. В работе приведены данные о возрастающей актуальности реабилитации детей с расщелинами губы и неба. Целью исследований было изучение влияния фактора кооперации на эффективность реабилитационных мероприятий. Разработана анкета, позволяющая оценить влияние указанного фактора на эффективность реабилитационных мероприятий. В результате анализа данных опросов выявлено противоречие между стремлением как можно раньше завершить процесс реабилитации и желанием как можно дольше пользоваться льготами, предоставляемыми государством семьям с больным ребенком. Анкета показала достаточную валидность для определения взглядов родителей на медицинские, психолого-педагогические и социально-экономические аспекты реализации индивидуальных программ реабилитации. Большинство родителей считают, что ортодонтическое лечение должно быть закончено в более раннем возрасте (до школы). При этом они отмечают определяющую роль родителей в выработке у ребенка устойчивого желания лечиться. Процесс полной реабилитации детей родители считают возможным продлить до поступления в профессиональные учебные заведения. Сделан вывод о необходимости повышения эффективности работы психолого-педагогической службы в системе комплексной реабилитации детей с расщелинами неба и губы

Congenital clefts of the face are among the most severe pathology of the maxillofacial region in terms of their consequences. The paper provides data on the increasing relevance of the rehabilitation of children with cleft lip and palate. The aim of the research was to study the influence of the factor of cooperation on the effectiveness of rehabilitation measures. A questionnaire has been developed to assess the influence of this factor on the effectiveness of rehabilitation measures. The analysis of survey data revealed a contradiction between the desire to complete the rehabilitation process as early as possible and the desire to use the benefits provided by the state to families with a sick child for as long as possible. The questionnaire showed sufficient validity to determine the views of parents on medical, psychological, pedagogical and socio-economic aspects of the implementation of individual rehabilitation programs. Most parents believe that orthodontic treatment should be completed at an earlier age (before school). At the same time, they note the decisive role of parents in developing a stable desire for treatment in a child. The parents consider it possible to extend the process of full rehabilitation of their children until they enter vocational educational institutions. It is concluded that it is necessary to increase the efficiency of the psychological and pedagogical service in the system of complex rehabilitation of children with cleft palate and lip

Published: December 2020

Investment is an important indicator of the economic development of a region. The article examines sectoral and spatial features of investment processes in a region (on the example of Zaporizhzhya region). In particular, capital investment of enterprises in Zaporizhzhya region are analyzed by types of assets, sources of financing and types of economic activity, while development (use) of capital investment – by types of industrial activity. The paper establishes that: 1) own funds of enterprises were the main source of capital investment in Zaporizhzhya region during the period under review; 2) the highest share of capital investment in the region is financed by industrial enterprises; 3) the share of investment in professional, scientific and technical activities is reduced. The active development of the region’s industrial infrastructure is becoming a challenge for its environment today. Nevertheless, capital investment for environmental protection were found to have decreased in 2017 compared to 2016. Therefore, the strategic objective of the region today is to make effective use of its existing investment potential, in particular to improve the environment. The main factors influencing the investment processes in Zaporizhzhya region were identified: a) positive factors, in particular: availability of natural resources and own energy resources; higher level of profitability of enterprises in the region than the average in Ukraine; ongoing processes of deregulation, decentralization, reform of the territorial organization of power in Ukraine; b) factors of a negative nature, in particular: territorial (spatial) imbalance of business development and institutional infrastructure of business support; small capital investment for environmental protection; aggravation of the military conflict in Eastern Ukraine, etc.

Authors: Popadynets Nazariy
Published: December 2020

The modern stage of economic development of the domestic consumer market, its new patterns and priorities, change of regulation and saturation factors, and transformation of the paradigm of resources and goods provision stipulate the need to improve all the components of its functioning mechanism with the mandatory use of marketing instruments. Therefore, the research of the consumer market condition and development trends as an important component of the general economic system becomes increasingly important. On the one hand, the current condition of most segments offering food and non-food products is considered as unstable and demonstrating negative tendencies related to a sharp decline of previously achieved volumes of supply and sales, reduction of the material basis for production and realization of high-quality goods, and substantial noncompliance with the needs of the population. On the other hand, the paces of innovative changes regarding the methods of production and realization of consumer goods that correspond to global standards, including the use of advanced marketing strategies and Internet resources, are high. The paper aims to substantiate the nature and reasonability of the use of the marketing approach in the system of organization of domestic market provision with consumer goods. Improvement of the quality of life by verification of the safety and quality of food is determined to be the major task of the consumer market regulation. The nature of marketing activity is proven to lie in the stimulation of demand and its forming, as well as stimulation of consumer goods production and creation of conditions for their quality and competitiveness maintenance. The tasks of the marketing activity in the system of organization of domestic market provision with consumer goods are directed at the qualitative meeting of consumer needs of the population by the use of various marketing technologies and approaches. Marketing approaches to the organization of the domestic market provision with consumer goods are outlined. Marketing methods of analysis and determining of production volumes and consumers’ needs on the domestic consumer market are defined.

Ukraine has been facing the problem of reforming of administrative and territorial structure (ATS) since it became independent, yet it has gained a special relevance after two consequent economic crises and in the period of after-crisis restoration of national economy accompanied by the search for efficient ways to accelerate reviving processes in the country’s economic system. The following reasons have also impacted the acceleration of ATS reforming in the country lately: boosted integration into single European economic space; fierce political-economic discussion about the impossibility of the country’s federalization; search for the ways to reduce the gap in socio-economic development of Ukrainian regions and their components. European experience of regional development is gaining increasing importance in this context, as it should become the leading driver of current restoration and further growth of Ukrainian economy. The paper aims to develop the ways to improve the efficiency of administrative and territorial structure reform in Ukraine based on assessment of the reform results in the country, identification of problems and implementation of foreign experience in their solution. The paper shows the processes of administrative and territorial structure reform in Ukraine and reveals its achievements and problems. Conducting of administrative and territorial structure reform is assessed. Main achievements of administrative and territorial structure reform in the country are characterized.

Published: December 2020

Background: There are regional disparities in the distribution of Canadian rheumatologists. The objective of this study was to identify factors impacting rheumatology residents’ postgraduate practice decisions to inform Canadian Rheumatology Association workforce recommendations.

Methods: An online survey was developed, and invitations were sent to all current Canadian rheumatology residents in 2019 (n = 67). Differences between subgroups of respondents were examined using the Pearson χ2 test.

Results: A total of 34 of 67 residents completed the survey. Seventy-three percent of residents planned to practice in the same province as their rheumatology training. The majority of residents (80%) ranked proximity to friends and family as the most important factor in planning. Half of participants had exposure to alternative modes of care delivery (e.g. telehealth) during their rheumatology training with fifteen completing a community rheumatology elective (44%).

Conclusions: The majority of rheumatology residents report plans to practice in the same province as they trained, and close to home. Gaps in training include limited exposure to community electives in smaller centers, and training in telehealth and travelling clinics for underserviced populations. Our findings highlight the need for strategies to increase exposure of rheumatology trainees to underserved areas to help address the maldistribution of rheumatologists.

Mitt namn är Shaft
Authors: Ehrström Peter , Dahlstedt Magnus
Published: December 2020

Filmkaraktären Shaft har tagit form under olika perioder av politisk polarisering i det amerikanska samhället. Syftet med denna artikel är att närmare undersöka hur karaktären Shaft har porträtteras i tre filmer från olika tidsperioder. Analysen riktar specifikt fokus mot hur Shaft positioneras i relation till tid (den tid då filmen utspelar sig), plats (det urbana rummet) och ras (den afroamerikanska gemenskapen). De tre filmerna utspelar sig under väldigt olika tider: 1971, 2000 och 2019, det vill säga under medborgarrättsrörelsen och omfattande afroamerikanska protester, under en period präglad av nyliberala ideal, samt i nutiden med dess tilltagande polarisering och omfattande protester under parollen Black Lives Matter.
Copyright – an Ally for Fashion in the Intellectual Property Rights System?
Authors: Jankowska Marlena
Published: December 2020

In the Internet society, we are accustomed to the originators of creative works asserting strong protection of their output. Similarly, we witness extremely casual appropriation of works that is easier than ever to discover. Fashion products are an interesting case in this regard – through the relatively short history of the industry, protection of works has tended to be quite loose. Until recently, the consequences of copying in the fashion sector were not particularly serious, but the emergence of the connected society and the increased speed and scale of this copying threaten to cause more noticeable damage. The awareness that new threats call for a more serious approach to protection of creations requires examination of how and whether the familiar principles of copyright law can be applied to fashion designs and products, and to what extent. This paper outlines the background to such protections in the fashion industry, including examples of both strong and relaxed approaches by industry players. There is a brief presentation of case law that demonstrates how copyright principles can be applied to fashion, while also noting the role of society in applying the norms that determine the extent to which laws, once written, can actually be applied.

Published: December 2020

The banking system plays an important role in the Environment and Development. This literature explored the influence of unconventional monetary rule on bank financial efficiency, with a vision to analysis to what degree unorthodox monetary expansion would impact deposit money banks’ performance using Nigeria as a case study for the developing economies in Africa from (2007-2017). Unorthodox monetary expansion is evaluated via assets of the apex bank to GDP ratio and deposit insured during the period. Using the random effect regression panel data analysis, the findings indicate that unconventional monetary policy is of a negative effect on deposit money bank performance. Further analyses show a negatively expressive relation amid unconventional pecuniary rule and Credit Money Banks performance with regards to deposit insurance coverage. On this basis, this literature principally recommends the apex bank of Nigeria to enact monitory regulations aiming to examine the response of credit finance banks’ performance to unconventional measures of monetary policy. The Unconventional Monetary Policy plays an important role in Development.
La historia del falcón oriol y del ave fénix en la literatura medieval castellana
Authors: Guadalajara Salmerón Sergio
Published: December 2020

Este artículo analiza la naturaleza e identidad del falcón oriol, mencionado en obras castellanas medievales de primer orden (Calila e Dimna, Libro del caballero Zifar,Elena y María) como soberano de todas las aves. Esta es la denominación que, durante el siglo xiii, recibió el fénix en la Península Ibérica, una de las criaturas mitológicas más importantes de las culturas europeas y orientales. A lo largo de más de dos milenios, su aspecto ha variado notablemente: primero adquirió el aspecto de una garza, después su efigie se asimiló a la de las rapaces. El color dorado que posee su plumaje y otros testimonios de incuestionable valor (relación con el Simurg, representaciones escultóricas, etc.) permiten esclarecer su identidad que, hasta el momento, había sido ignorada por la crítica. Para ello, se analizará la etimología del nombre oriol, serán estudiadas las aves que tradicionalmente han sido utilizadas como símbolos del poder y se examinará el desarrollo del mito del fénix desde el Antiguo Egipto hasta la Edad Media.

Moses, money, and multiple-choice: The Moses illusion in a multiple-choice format with high incentives
Authors: Speckmann Felix , Unkelbach Christian
Published: December 2020

When people answer the question “How many animals of each kind did Moses take on the Ark?”, they usually respond with “two,” although Moses does not appear in the biblical story of the Ark. We investigated this “Moses illusion” in a multiple-choice format and tested the influence of monetary incentives on the illusion’s strength. Thereby, we addressed the role of a cooperative communication context for the illusion’s emergence, as well as the role of participants’ motivation. In four experiments (total N = 914), we found that the Moses illusion persists in a multiple-choice format. As the multiple-choice format realizes a cooperative context in which the correct answer is always available, we exclude a cooperative context explanation for the illusion. Monetary incentives reduced the strength of the illusion. However, the reduction was numerically and statistically small. We thereby show that the illusion is not due to violations of cooperative communications, and not due to a lack of motivation. The multiple-choice approach will facilitate further research on the Moses illusion and the data provide additional evidence for the Moses illusion’s empirical robustness and constrain its theoretical explanations.
Nickel nanoparticle decorated reduced graphene oxide-WO3 nanocomposite - a promising candidate for gas sensing
Authors: Simon Ilka , Savitsky Alexandr , Mülhaupt Rolf , Pankov Vladimir , Janiak Christoph
Published: December 2020

We report for the first time the doping of WO3 sensing elements with a non-noble metal carbon composite, namely a nickel metal nanoparticles-carbon composite (Ni@rGO). Previous work with WO3 had used either NiO (as part of the WO3 lattice) or carbon alone or Pd-surface decorated WO3 (Pd@WO3) or Pd or Pt@carbon@WO3. We demonstrate the gas response for pure WO3, rGO-doped WO3 and Ni@rGO doped WO3 sensing elements towards NO2 (10 ppm) and acetone (35,000 ppm) in air. The addition of 0.35 wt% Ni@rGO composite to WO3 enables the increase of the sensory response by more than 1.6 times for NO2 vapors as well as 4 times regarding acetone vapors (n-type response).

Still Kicking: the Survivability of the Islamic State in Libya
Authors: Kadlec Amanda
Published: December 2020

Since emerging in eastern Libya in 2014, ISIS laid claim to wilayat within Libya’s three regional provinces—Tripolitania, Barqa, and Fezzan—moving fast to establish a quasi-state in the coastal city of Sirte and amassing just a few thousand fighters at its peak strength. Yet, just as ISIS core’s territorial hold in Syria and Iraq withered, its strength in Libya also soon diminished. Sustained domestic and international counterterrorism efforts have severely depleted ISIS in Libya’s (ISIS-L) numbers, operational capacity, and opportunity for safe haven. However, while weakened, ISIS-L’s survivability is driven by a far more complex range of factors than just Libya’s domestic unrest. The apex of ISIS-L’s power from 2014 to 2016 may have been brief, and its current threat low, but the group’s damage to Libya lingers, and the potential for its continued periodic revival should not be understated. For those seeking to counter and address ISIS-L’s continued presence in Libya, understanding the factors that simultaneously facilitate and hamper the group’s operations and growth is paramount to crafting appropriate interventions.

Authors: Menezes Silveira Lucas , Antunes Coutinho André , Da Rocha Sobrinho Hermínio Maurício
Published: December 2020

Objetivo: Abordar os principais mecanismos imunológicos envolvidos na patogenia da Esclerose Múltipla dando ênfase à neuroinflamação e às intervenções terapêuticas atuais. Métodos: Trata se de uma revisão bibliográfica narrativa, utilizando se as bases de dados: Periódicos da Capes, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde e Pubmed. Foram incluídos 55 artigos publicados no período de 2004 a 2019. Resultados: A etiopatogenia da Esclerose Múltipla envolve fatores genéticos, imunológicos e ambientais, que em conjunto, induzem processos de quebra da autotolerância imunológica, lesão neuronal, neuroinflamação e neurodegeneração. A neuroinflamação pode ser iniciada por antígenos próprios ou estranhos que são expostos aos leucócitos do sistema nervoso central. Leucócitos periféricos, especialmente, monócitos e linfócitos T e B, podem se infiltrar no sistema nervoso devido a alteração da permeabilidade da barreira hematoencefálica e, juntamente com a micróglia, possuem importante papel na indução de lesões desmielinizantes. A neurodegeneração pode gerar mais estímulos antigênicos. Atualmente existem 17 drogas imunomoduladoras aprovadas pela Food and Drugs Administration para o tratamento da doença, mas diversos estudos estão sendo realizados, visando novas abordagens terapêuticas. Conclusão: A etiologia da Esclerose Múltipla mantem-se uma incógnita, apesar de estudos atuais apontarem teorias sobre possíveis desencadeadores, extrínsecos e intrínsecos da autoimunidade na doença e da própria neuroinflamação, sendo a última um importante fator indutor da lesão tecidual e perpetuador da doença. A identificação de antígenos alvo reconhecidos por linfócitos T e B residentes e pelas micróglias, juntamente com a caracterização de mediadores inflamatórios solúveis é fundamental para elucidar a etiopatogenia da doença e sugerir novas propostas terapêuticas.

Objetivo: Descrever e analisar as modalidades fisioterapêuticas descritas para idosos internados com pneumonia em um hospital privado. Métodos: Estudo de coorte retrospectivo e analítico, realizado com 164 pacientes diagnósticados com PMN no período de 1 ano, em um hospital privado de Goiânia, Goiás, Brasil. Os dados foram coletados através de análise de prontuários disponibilizados pelo hospital, e transcritos para uma planilha de excel. Para análise utilizou-se o teste de Kolmogorov-Smirnov para distribuição da amostra, e para correlação o teste de Sperman. Resultados: Foram encontradas 21 modalidades de fisioterapia realizadas em pacientes idosos com pneumonia, sendo as mais frequentes a terapia de expansão pulmonar (95,1%), terapia de higiene brônquica (50%) e posicionamento funcional no leito (74,2%). Sobre os desfechos clínicos, 82,3% dos pacientes receberam alta e 16,1% evoluíram para o óbito. Houve correlação significativa entre o óbito e o posicionamento funcional no leito, terapia de higiene brônquica e aspiração de TOT e VAS (p≤0,05).  Conclusão: As modalidades terapia de expansão pulmonar, posicionamento funcional, terapia de higiene brônquica, bombeamento de extremidade, alongamentos, sedestação beira leito e orientações ao paciente e familiares são as mais realizadas em pacientes idosos com pneumonia.

Authors: Moreira Milena Vitoria Machado
Published: December 2020

Objetivos: Verificar se há relação entre sintomas do transtorno de ansiedade e a prática de atividade física em estudantes de medicina. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo transversal descritivo quantitativo realizado com os estudantes de medicina do primeiro (1°), quinto (5º) e oitavo (8°) períodos do Centro Universitário de Anápolis – UNIEVANGÉLICA. Para a coleta de dados, aplicou-se dois questionários referentes à prática de atividade física e aos sintomas de ansiedade. Os dados obtidos foram tabulados em planilhas eletrônicas para análise estatística utilizando testes com o intuito de comparar as distribuições percentuais entre os períodos de acordo com as classificações dos questionários. Resultados: Foram analisados questionários de 131 participantes. Observou-se que há relação entre a prática de atividade física e a redução dos sintomas de ansiedade, uma vez que a maioria dos acadêmicos considerados ansiosos são irregularmente ativos, ao passo que o maior número de indivíduos avaliados como não ansiosos são considerados muito ativos (p<0,05). Conclusões: Faz-se necessário ratificar que existe relação positiva entre a prática regular de exercícios físicos e a redução dos sintomas de ansiedade, a fim de trazer benefícios ao estudante de medicina quanto à melhora da qualidade de vida.

Utjecaj Fin-Tech kompanija na digitalnu transformaciju bankarstva u Hrvatskoj
Authors: Bračun Sanja , Turkalj Krešimir
Published: December 2020

Digitalna transformacija financijskog sektora na globalnom tržištu
snažno napreduje. Fin-Tech kompanije sve više konkuriraju ili čak u potpunosti
zaobilaze postojeći financijski sektor, primarno banke. Taj trend vidljiv je i
u Republici Hrvatskoj, gdje se sve više pojavljuju nova poduzeća i njihovi
inovativni financijski proizvodi. U cilju provjere spremnosti hrvatskih banaka
na digitalnu transformaciju te implementaciju novih proizvoda i usluga, kroz
provedeno kvalitativno istraživanje (intervjui s deset relevantnih sugovornika
iz područja bankarstva i Fin-Tech kompanija) provjeren je utjecaj Fin-Tech
kompanija koji su van bankarskog sektora, na sam bankarski sustav. Dodatna je
pozornost tijekom istraživanja posvećena procjeni jesu li banke i Fin-Tech
kompanije na hrvatskom tržištu prepoznale aktualne potrebe svojih klijenata,
koliko im se dobro prilagođavaju te mogu li banke i dalje biti lideri u digitalnoj
transformaciji Republike Hrvatske. Što se tiče prilagođavanja potrebama
klijenata, manji dio sudionika istraživanja smatra kako će se portfelj usluga
banaka tek nadopunjavati novim proizvodima i uslugama, dok ipak veći dio
sudionika istraživanja smatra kako će u idućih 5 godina, postojeće prvenstveno
platno prometne usluge banaka i kartičarskih kuća biti zamijenjene posve novim
poslovnim modelima. Predstavnici banaka uočavaju jak utjecaj Fin-Tech kompanija
na globalnom tržištu, no smatraju da u Republici Hrvatskoj oni ipak imaju manji
utjecaj. Također, smatraju da se banke generalno dobro prilagođavaju novoj
situaciji te da će i dalje ostati lideri digitalne transformacije. Tu poziciju
zadržat će prvenstveno zbog svoje veličine i količine kapitala kojom raspolažu u
procesu izgradnje percepcije sigurnosti svog poslovanja koja je hrvatskim
korisnicima i dalje iznimno bitna. Na temelju rezultata provedenog istraživanja
dane su preporuke daljnjih aktivnosti vezenih uz digitalnu transformaciju, koje
bi banke trebale provesti u cilju zadržavanja vodeće pozicije na hrvatskom
tržištu financijskih usluga.
