There is evidence that men are more likely to undergo deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson’s disease (PD), suggesting that women are relatively undertreated. 121 consecutive PD patients undergoing awake DBS with microelectrode recording and intraoperative clinical testing (30 patients, 5 women) or asleep MRI-guided and CT-verified (91 patients, 38 women) bilateral subthalamic nucleus DBS were included in this study. The results showed an increase in the proportion of female patients from 16.7% to 41.8% after changing our operative technique (OR = 5.61; 95% CI: 1.52–20.78; p = 0.010) from awake to asleep, suggesting that women are more likely to undergo DBS when operated asleep.

Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND: The digital twin concept is the virtual model based on entity design measures, which is used in many enterprises’ virtual workshop design models for workshop production scheduling and optimization. However, in the field of medical rehabilitation, the integration of digital twin technology started late compared to traditional industrial manufacturing. Many current digital models are not well suited for information interaction between patients and devices. OBJECTIVE: In order to address the lack of interaction between patients and devices in the field of medical rehabilitation, this paper proposes an automatic gait data control system (AGDCS) for fully actuated lower limb exoskeleton digital twinning. This system improves the integration of digital twinning system with the medical rehabilitation field and analyzes the patient’s gait data through simulation experiments. METHODS: The digital twin system was designed in several steps. Firstly, the upper computer function module was designed and developed according to the rehabilitation treatment needs. After that, the combination of exoskeleton robot and software was carried out, and finally the real rehabilitation treatment environment of patients was simulated through experiments. RESULTS: The proposed system was very reliable in the experimental tests of the host computer and exoskeleton robot. In the upper computer test, the patient specific gait can be generated, and the motion of the exoskeleton robot can be observed in real-time. During the walking test of the exoskeleton robot, the exoskeleton robot completed the specified gait. The result verified the superiority and effectiveness of the digital twin system AGDCS in the field of rehabilitation. CONCLUSIONS: The digital twin system proposed in this paper improves the interaction between self-balancing exoskeleton robot and patients, and improves the autonomy and safety of patients in rehabilitation treatment.

Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND: Digital competencies are more and more required in everyday work, and training future healthcare professionals in digital health is highly important. OBJECTIVE: Aim of this study was to assess medical students’ gain of knowledge by participation in a teaching module “Digital Health”, and to evaluate their attitudes towards digital health and its role in medical education. METHODS: Students of the module were asked to complete a questionnaire and a multiple-choice-test before and after completing the classes. Students of the same educational level in different modules served as reference group. RESULTS: 34 students took part (n= 17 “Digital Health group”; n= 17 “reference group”). There was no significant difference in pre-existing knowledge between the groups. After having completed the module, participants reached significantly higher scores, compared to their preexisting knowledge (p< 0.05) and the reference group (p< 0.05). Most students found that digital medicine is not sufficiently represented in undergraduate medical education, but will influence everyday work of physicians in the next five years. CONCLUSIONS: Students showed a high awareness for the impact of digital health on physicians’ work. The results suggest that the format can sufficiently transfer knowledge about digital health. Teaching of digital knowledge and competencies should be firmly implemented into medical education to form digitally competent future doctors.

Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND: The results of medical image segmentation can provide reliable evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment. The U-Net proposed previously has been widely used in the field of medical image segmentation. Its encoder extracts semantic features of different scales at different stages, but does not carry out special processing for semantic features of each scale. OBJECTIVE: To improve the feature expression ability and segmentation performance of U-Net, we proposed a feature supplement and optimization U-Net (FSOU-Net). METHODS: First, we put forward the view that semantic features of different scales should be treated differently. Based on this view, we classify the semantic features automatically extracted by encoders into two categories: shallow semantic features and deep semantic features. Then, we propose the shallow feature supplement module (SFSM), which obtains fine-grained semantic features through up-sampling to supplement the shallow semantic information. Finally, we propose the deep feature optimization module (DFOM), which uses the expansive convolution of different receptive fields to obtain multi-scale features and then performs multi-scale feature fusion to optimize the deep semantic information. RESULTS: The proposed model is experimented on three medical image segmentation public datasets, and the experimental results prove the correctness of the proposed idea. The segmentation performance of the model is higher than the advanced models for medical image segmentation. Compared with baseline network U-NET, the main index of Dice index is 0.75% higher on the RITE dataset, 2.3% higher on the Kvasir-SEG dataset, and 0.24% higher on the GlaS dataset. CONCLUSIONS: The proposed method can greatly improve the feature representation ability and segmentation performance of the model.

Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND: Underemployment is a challenge for the civilian workforce and a particular risk for veterans as they transition from military service to civilian employment. Workers’ economic and demographic characteristics factor into underemployment risk. Veterans may be at greater risk due to specific economic and demographic factors, transitional factors (e.g., geographic relocation), and characteristics of their military service (e.g., military skill alignment with civilian jobs). OBJECTIVES: Describe underemployment experiences in employed post-9/11 veterans three years after their military transition to the civilian workforce. METHODS: The current study uses self-reported underemployment experience data from a longitudinal study of transitioning veterans. This study compares average perceptions of veteran underemployment experiences by specific groups (e.g., by race, gender, and paygrade) using analysis of variance and logistic regression. RESULTS: Veterans reported underemployment in their current jobs based on a perceived mismatch between the skills, education, and/or leadership experience they gained during military service. CONCLUSIONS: Veterans who were enlisted rank, identified as non-White, completed a bachelor’s degree, and indicated PTSD symptoms reported higher pervasive underemployment. Intervention implications for the results, such as employer and veteran employment supports, are discussed.

BACKGROUND: There is a lack of studies that investigated the effect of a wide range of work environmental factors on stress and depression in Japan. OBJECTIVES: To examine the association of work environment factors with stress and depression among workers in Japan. METHODS: We conducted questionnaire surveys of workers that mainly engage in desk work in Japan. Stress was assessed through the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), depression through the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and work environment through physical and psychological workplace environment questionnaires. Workers were divided into low and high stress groups based on PSS score (median split), and divided into non-depressed and depressed groups based on their PHQ-9 score (< 5, and ≥5); these groups were then compared with their working environment. In addition, a multiple regression analysis was performed. RESULTS: Responses were obtained from 210 subjects. Multiple regression analysis showed that “Ability to work at one’s own pace” and “Ability to apply personal viewpoint to work,” etc., had effect on stress, while “Workplace harassment” and “Support from colleagues,” etc., had effect on depression. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that stress and depression in Japanese workers are related to factors such as job demands, control of work, workplace harassment, and psychological safety.

Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND: The rapid development of science and technology and the swift improvement of people’s material living standards enabled smartphones to be indispensable of people’s daily lives. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this paper was to examine the influence of self-control in adolescents’ participation in physical activity on cell phone dependence. METHODS: The Physical Activity Rating Scale (PARS-3), the Self-Control Scale, and the Cell Phone Dependence Scale were used to measure the influence of self-control in adolescents’ participation in physical activity on cell phone dependence among 649 adolescents. RESULTS: The results show: (1) There were significant differences (p < 0.01) in the physical activity levels of adolescents under different gender, birthplace, and education background. (2) Each dimensional variable of physical activity was negatively correlated with the cell phone dependence variable, and positively correlated with each variable of self-control, and the self-control variables were negatively correlated with cell phone dependence. (3) Self-control was partially mediating the effects of physical activity on cell phone dependence, with the mediating effect accounting for 39.68%. CONCLUSIONS: Adolescents’ participation in physical exercise activities will improve self-control and ultimately reduce cell phone dependence. Curbing the negative and malignant events of cell phone addiction among adolescents, timely investigation of mobile phone and Internet addiction, pathological formation mechanisms and intervention measures are important measures to reshape the healthy lifestyle of adolescents and have great practical significance for the prosperity and development of families, society, nation and country.

Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND: COVID-19 affected numerous industries and the mining industry has not been immune to the adverse impacts caused by the pandemic. OBJECTIVE: This study examines the importance of the mining industry and its benefits to the economy of the producing countries. The paper also gives an insight into the pre-COVID global and Turkish mining industries and investigates the impact of the pandemic on the global and Turkish mining sectors. Furthermore, the study suggests numerous measures that should be adopted in mines to limit the spread of COVID-19 and conduct mining operations safely and efficiently. METHODS: An extensive literature review was conducted and relevant papers on the importance and benefits of the mining industry, the Turkish and global mining industry, and the impact of COVID-19 on the Turkish and global mining industry were studied. RESULTS: The COVID-19 crisis has deeply affected metal and mineral production and the economic sectors that depend on the mining industry for supplies. The most significant impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic on the global mining industry consist of the drastic decline in demand and production and the decrease in the prices of several commodities. As with any complex global situation, the mining industries of some countries were affected more than others by the COVID-19 crisis. The Turkish mining industry was to some extent affected by the COVID-19 crisis, but it quickly recovered. CONCLUSIONS: An efficient planning of operations and adopting effective measures and precautions enable limiting the spread of COVID-19 in quarries and mines.

Biomass waste that has not been utilized properly is wood waste from Sengon (Falcataria moluccana). There is a high potential of these wastes to be used as solid fuel. The quality can be further improved by converting them into charcoal briquettes. This study aimed to determine the effects of adhesive content on the bioenergetic properties of charcoal briquette from Sengon wood wastes. The charcoal briquettes were produced by mixing charcoal powders with tapioca starch as an adhesive with a concentration of 5%, 10%, and 15%. Biomass briquette from Sengon wood particles (without pyrolysis) was also produced for comparison (control). The oven-dry density of briquettes of 0,23 – 0,25 g/cm3. Higher adhesive content increased the density of briquettes. The bioenergetic properties of the charcoal briquette were evaluated. The results showed that charcoal briquettes were more hydrophobic than biomass briquettes (control). The results of proximate analysis of charcoal briquettes showed volatile matter of 24,96–31,80%; ash content of 3,16–3,24%; and fixed carbon of 58,68–66.40%. Higher adhesive content increased the volatile matter, moisture content, and ash content of the charcoal briquettes and decreased the fixed carbon. The charcoal briquettes have a calorific value of 25,68-27,35 MJ/kg, which is remarkably higher than the control. Higher adhesive content tended to decrease the calorific value of the charcoal briquettes. Lower adhesive content will produce briquettes with good bioenergy characteristics. Sengon wood waste charcoal briquettes with 5% adhesive content has great potential to be developed as an alternative energy source.Keywords: Adhesive content, Charcoal briquettes, Pyrolysis, Sengon (Falcataria moluccana); Tapioca starch

The purpose of the study was to analyze the prospects for plant conservation in high conservation value (HCV) oil palm plantations based on the sustainability value of plant species and population structure. The study was conducted in the HCV areas of three oil palm plantation companies and secondary forest in Riau Province. Data was collected by analyzing vegetation measuring 1.28-2.56 ha/plot in the HCV area and 3.84 ha/plot in secondary forest. Data analysis was carried out using relative density, and analysis of regeneration conditions were included in five categories (good, poor, fair, none, new). Data analysis related to the assessment of the prospect of HCV areas is carried out from the results of the analysis of the effectiveness of the HCV area and plant sustainability. The HCV area prospect assessment is grouped into three categories, namely prospective, moderately prospective, and not yet prospective. The results showed that the HCV area was not yet effective and the condition of important plant species was not sustainable. The HCV area has not been effectively assessed from the comparison of the value of the vegetation community between the HCV area and secondary forest, including low (<25%). PT A's HCV area in the form of forest has a higher effectiveness value than other HCV areas and secondary forest. The results showed that the most important plant species regeneration conditions were included in the none category (57.14%). This category shows that plant species are not yet sustainable because they are only found at one growth level, namely trees. So now it can be concluded that the purpose of the existence of HCV areas in maintaining and conserving plant diversity in oil palm plantations has not been implemented properly. Key words: Conservation of plants , High conservation value, Oil palm plantations, Vegetation analysis

Published: June 2022

The paper examines legal approaches to regulating surrogacy in Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. The research was successfully initiated by highlighting empirical data demonstrating an increase in the number of infertile couples and, accordingly, the growth of the surrogacy market, which confirms the relevance of this issue. The authors clarified the content of the concepts of “assisted reproductive technologies” and “surrogate mother”. The historical aspects of the emergence and development of surrogacy globally and the attempts at its legal regulation at the state level have been revealed. The authors reviewed the main provisions of legal acts regulating surrogacy in Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. It was found that the legal regulation of surrogacy was consolidated in Ukraine earlier than in the Baltic countries. In Ukraine, surrogacy is allowed only for spouses for medical reasons, the list of which is enshrined in legislative acts, while foreigners have access to such services. It was found that altruistic and commercial surrogacy is prohibited in Lithuania. The legal provisions make it impossible to enter a surrogate agreement, even if it could be concluded. It has been established that surrogacy is not directly regarded as a crime under the criminal law of Lithuania. It is emphasized that commercial surrogacy is indirectly prohibited in Latvia, but heterosexual couples and infertile single women can seek medical help for procreation. In Latvia, the criminal legislation does not directly provide for the criminal liability for surrogacy arrangements. It is determined that the Estonian legislation provides married and single women with access to medical care if there are medical indications for reproductive treatment but provides for criminal liability for gestational surrogacy. It is concluded that the legislation of Ukraine is favorable for surrogacy. In contrast, in the Baltic countries, the opposite approach is due to such risks as human trafficking, exploitation of women, commercialization of children, etc.

Introdução: Poucos estudos exploraram o desfecho de componentes hemodinâmicos em sobreviventes de câncer em um programa de exercícios físicos. Objetivo: Verificar alterações agudas e crônicas na pressão arterial sistólica (PAS) e diastólica (PAD) durante um programa de exercícios em sobreviventes de câncer de mama. Método: Um hospital de referência, 24 mulheres sobreviventes participaram de um programa de exercícios físicos. A PA foi monitorada com monitor digital de pulso, antes e após a realização das sessões. Para comparação pré e pós-exercício em cada sessão, foi empregado o teste t para amostras pareadas. Para analises dos efeitos crônicos, utilizou-se a analise de variância (Anova), com medidas repetidas para identificar possíveis diferenças nas variáveis PAS e PAD pré-exercício ao longo das 15 sessões de treinamento. Considerou-se o nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: Observou-se que, com exceção da quarta e sexta sessões, os níveis de PAS diminuíram em todas as sessões após o exercício (p≤0,05). Para a PAD, somente houve diminuição significativa após o exercício nas três primeiras sessões. Nos efeitos crônicos, ocorreu redução media nos valores de PAS em repouso ao longo das sessões, com efeito hipotensor acima de 70% a partir da sétima sessão (p≤0,05). Na PAD, diferenças nos valores em repouso se acentuaram a partir da decima sessão; ao comparar com os valores de PAD em repouso, verificou-se efeito hipotensor acima de 94%. Conclusão: Sobreviventes que aderiram ao programa de exercício físico apresentaram redução aguda e crônica da PAS e da PAD.

Published: June 2022

The Novel Corona Virus Disease or COVID-19 has caused unprecedented huge impacts and affected all aspects of governance including the relations among countries. Amid the crisis, sub-national governments have demonstrated their international engagements and innovations in order to respond to the pandemic. Jakarta as the largest city and the capital of the Republic of Indonesia became the national attention in early of the pandemic due to its functional position as the main gate of international mobility. However, the region held an international event called the International Youth Championship while the pandemic still existed. This research aimed to describe the region’s objectives to carry out the event as a para-diplomacy practice. This research applied the qualitative research method with a descriptive analysis. In addition, the research utilized para-diplomacy concept as a theoretical tool to help describe such objectives. This research found that the regional government had a number of objectives in hosting the event; promoting the success of handing the COVID-19, promoting sports tourism in the post-pandemic, and introducing a new icon of the region. Those objectives belong to the economic and cultural dimension of para-diplomacy. This paper argues that Indonesian para-diplomacy is an asset in as much as the national government can harvest benefits from sub-national governments’ para-diplomatic activities.

Published: June 2022

Turizmin çeşitlenmesi ile birlikte farklı turizm faaliyetlerine yönelik adlandırma ve gruplandırma hataları sıklıkla yapılmaktadır. Turizm faaliyetinin türü, yeri ve amacı gibi birçok değişken bir arada düşünüldüğünde adlandırma ve gruplandırma hatalarının bilimsel araştırmalara da yansıdığı görülmektedir. Bu durum bilimsel araştırmaların kurgulanmasından sonuçlanmasına kadar bir dizi sorun oluşturabilmekte, araştırma sonuçlarını güvensiz hale getirebilme tehlikesini de beraberinde getirmektedir. Turizm araştırmalarında sıklıkla karşılaşılan hatalardan biri de şehir turizmi kavramına farklı anlamlar yüklenmesidir. Şehir kavramı ile idari bir sınıflama olan il kavramının karıştırılması sonucu ortaya çıkan hata, şehir turizmi çalışmalarını da olumsuz etkilemektedir. Şehir turizmi adı altında bir ildeki turizm çekiciliklerinden bahsedilmesi, bu çalışmalarda şehir turizminin tüm turizm türlerini içine alan bir kavram olarak ifade edilmesi hatasına neden olmaktadır. Oysa her ilde birden fazla şehir yerleşmesi ve şehir turizmi destinasyonu bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı şehir turizmi kavramının doğru kullanımına ilişkin bir öneri oluşturmaktır. Derleme niteliği taşıyan bu çalışmada şehir ve şehir turizmi kavramları açıklanmış; şehir turizmi kavramının sınırları çizilmeye çalışılmıştır. Şehir turizmi kavramına yüklenen anlamların bir şehrin turizm potansiyeline işaret ettiği ve bu noktada şehir turizmi kavramının bütün turizm türlerini çatısı altına alabilecek bir turizm çeşidi olduğuna yönelik hatalı bakış açısı tartışılmıştır. Bu tartışma çerçevesinde gelecekte yapılacak akademik çalışmalarda şehir turizmi kavramının doğru kullanımına yönelik bir çerçeve oluşturulmuştur.

Kültürel miraslar ülkelerin kimlik sembolleridir. Türkiye’nin UNESCO miras listesinde 18 mirası bulunmaktadır. Bu mirasları etkin olarak korumak için yönetim planlarının hazırlanması gerekmektedir. Müdahaleler belirli bir plana göre yapılmalıdır. Yönetim planlarındaki vizyon ifadeleri, mirasın uzun vadeli hedefleri için motivasyon sağlayan kılavuzlardır. Bu çalışmada vizyon ifadelerindeki vurguları, eksiklikleri tespit ederek ve önerilerde bulunarak yeni yapılacak yönetim planları için örnek teşkil etmek maksadıyla yönetim planlarında bulunan vizyon cümlelerinde kullanılan kelimelerin analizinin yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Keşfedici bir araştırma olarak yapılandırılan bu çalışma kapsamında Mart 2020 tarihinde Türkiye’de bulunan UNESCO Dünya Miras Listesi’ndeki 18 ve Geçici Listesi’ndeki 83 mirastan yedisi geçici listede olmak üzere 16 mirasın yönetim planına ulaşılmıştır. Veri toplama aşamasında ulaşılan tüm alan yönetim planlarında vizyon ifadelerine erişilerek Dünya Mirası olma ve geçici listede yer alma durumuna göre sınıflandırılmıştır. Verilerin analiz ve yorumlanması dört aşamada gerçekleşmiştir. Bunlar anahtar kelimelerin belirlenmesi, tasnif, kategori geliştirme, geçerlilik ve güvenirliğin sağlanması aşamalarıdır. Ulaşılan vizyon cümleleri içerik analizi yöntemiyle incelerek kullanılan kelimeler ve kullanım sıklıkları tespit edilmiş, çıkarımlar yapılmıştır. Belirlenen 55 adet anahtar kelimenin toplamda 150 kez tekrar edildiği tespit edilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda yönetim planlarında en çok ‘korumak’ kelimesi ile karşılaşılmıştır. Bu çalışma, yönetim planı hazırlanacak mirasların vizyon ifadeleri için ön analiz niteliği taşımakta ve rehber olma potansiyeli barındırmaktadır.

Zayıf formda etkin olmayan bir piyasada, bazı yatırımcılar teknik analiz ile geçmiş fiyat hareketlerinden faydalanarak piyasa ortalamasının üzerinde getiri elde edebilmektedir. Etkin Piyasa Hipotezi ise geçmiş dönem, kamuya açıklanmış bilgileri ile kamuya açıklanmamış bilgileri de dâhil ederek finansal varlık fiyatlarının gelecekteki değerlerinin tahmin edilemeyeceğini ve ortalama üstü bir kazanç sağlanamayacağı görüşünü savunmaktadır. Bu sebeple hangi piyasaların etkin olup olmadığı yatırımcılar ve araştırmacılar için bir araştırma konusu olmuştur. Bu çalışmada, metal emtia piyasalarında zayıf formda etkinlik analizi 4 Ocak 2010-31 Aralık 2021 dönemi için altın, gümüş, platin ve paladyumun günlük dolar bazlı kapanış fiyatları kullanılarak araştırılmıştır. Çalışmada ilk olarak serilerin doğrusal olup olmadıkları Harvey vd. (2008) doğrusallık testi ile incelenmiştir. Sonrasında yapısal kırılmalar ile çoklu yumuşak geçişleri dikkate alan Fourier ADF testi ile serilerin birim kök analizleri yapılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular; altın, platin ve paladyum piyasalarının zayıf formda etkin olduğunu, gümüş piyasasının ise zayıf formda etkin olmadığını ortaya koymuştur. Buna göre altın, platin ve paladyum piyasalarında fiyatlar geçmiş fiyat hareketlerinden bağımsız bir biçimde rassal olarak hareket ettiğinden bu piyasalarda piyasa zamanlaması yapmak anlamsız olacaktır. Gümüş piyasasında ise fiyat hareketleri rassal olmayıp ortalamaya dönme eğilimi göstermektedir. Dolayısıyla bu piyasada işlem yapan yatırımcıların geçmiş fiyat davranışlarından hareketle kısa vadeli alım-satım yapmayı tercih etmeleri gerekmektedir.

Balkan yarımadası coğrafi olarak doğunun batıya geçiş rotası, batının da doğuya geçiş kapısı niteliğindedir. Bundan dolayı ki yıllar boyunca birçok medeniyete hem ev sahipliği yapmış hem de geçiş güzergâhı olmuştur. Balkanlarda yaşayan toplulukların farklı medeniyetler ile etkileşimi sayesinde yemek çeşitliliğinin artmasına katkıda bulunmuştur. Çeşitli Türk boylarının Balkanlar’da yerleşmesi ve yıllar geçtikten sonra bazı yerleşimcilerin Türkiye’ye dönmesiyle beraberlerinde getirdikleri mutfak kültürü etkileşimde bulunduğu toplumun mutfak kültürünün çeşitlenmesine sebebiyet vermiştir. Balkan mutfaklarını ülkeler bazında incelecek olursak; Arnavut, Bosna-Hersek, Bulgaristan, Hırvatistan, Karadağ, Kosova, Makedonya, Romanya, Sırbistan ve Yunan mutfak kültürlerinden oluştuğunu görebiliriz. Balkan mutfakları coğrafi, ekonomik, dini, kültür vb. sebeplerden dolayı birbirlerine çok benzemektedir. Hatta bugün dahi birçok ürün farklı ülkelerde aynı isimde anılmakta hatta Türkçede de kullanılan yemekler ve araç-gereçler bulunmaktadır. Yapılan çalışmada Tekirdağ’ın Malkara ilçesinde yaşayan Balkanlar’ın çeşitli vilayetlerinden göçmüş olan 20 mahalleden 47 kişi ile görüşülmüş, mutfak kültürü, sofra adapları ve yemek tarifleri kayıt altına alınmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı yaşlı ve ulaşılması zor olan 1. ve 2. nesil göçmenlerin bilgi birikimlerinin kayıt altına alarak gelecek nesillere aktarabilmektedir. Trakya bölgesinde mutfak kültürü hakkında yapılan çalışmaların azlığı ve birçok farklı etnik yapıyı bulundurması sebebiyle ileride yapılacak çalışmalar için de kaynak olunması amaçlanmaktadır. Ayrıca yörenin mutfak kültürünün zenginliği göz önüne alındığında, tanıtım faaliyeti amacıyla öneriler son bölümde sunulmuştur.

У статті проаналізовано феномен сучасного українського композитора Володимира Зубицького в аспекті його творчого універсалізму. Акцентовано увагу на композиторській, виконавській, диригентській, педагогічній, громадській діяльності митця. Відзначено, що композиторський доробок В. Зубицького складає понад сто п’ятдесят творів, серед яких опери, симфонічна, хорова, камерна музика, твори для різних інструментів. Вагомим є доробок В. Зубицького у баянній музиці. В його композиторському портфелі грандіозні концертні полотна для солюючого інструмента з оркестром, невеликі п’єси камерного складу, дитяча музика, твори педагогічного репертуару середнього рівня складності. В. Зубицький добре відомий світу як яскравий виконавець. Він є лауреатом міжнародних конкурсів, концертуючим баяністом, який репрезентує сучасний стиль гри. Виконавській стилістиці музиканта характерний ярко виражений артистизм, театрально-ігрове начало яке поєднує майстерність баяніста, харизматичність інтерпретаційного втілення, емоційну відвертість, діалог зі слухачем. Одним з аспектів концертної діяльності музиканта є гра в різного складу ансамблях, зокрема сімейному квартеті, тріо, дуетах родини Зубицьких Як диригент маестро виступає переважно з виконанням власних творів. Він активно займається організацією фестивальних і конкурсних заходів, проводить майстер-класи. В. Зубицький відомий своєю громадянською позицією. Проживаючи тривалий час в Італії, він активно пропагує українське мистецтво. За концепцією діяльнісного універсалізму (О. Коменда), творчий універсалізм В. Зубицького можна віднести до «п’ятидіяльнісного типу». Головним досягненням митця є визнання його музичного доробку сучасним виконавством. Його концертна діяльність є маркером українського в світі і саме це визначає неперевершену значимість творчості майстра.
КОНЦЕПТ ХУДОЖНЬОГО ОБРАЗУ МАЗЕПИ У СТВОРЕННІ ЄВРОПЕЙСЬКОГО ТА ІМПЕРСЬКО-РОСІЙСЬКОГО МІФІВ В МУЗИЧНОМУ МИСТЕЦТВІ ТА РОЛЬ В ЦЬОМУ ЛІСТА ТА ЧАЙКОВСЬКОГО

Історична постать легендарного українського гетьмана Мазепи зазнала різнополярної міфологізації за століття після його смерті у літературі, музиці та живопису. У європейському дискурсі його постать пов’язували з романтичним героєм-бунтарем, який постав проти свавілля узурпаторів – ця тенденція цілком відповідала політично-соціальній парадигмі революційних подій та національно-визвольних рухів, які охопили багато країн на початку ХІХ століття. Ідея свободи, національного піднесення з відповідною самоідентифікацією була рушійною силою тектонічних змін на континенті. Мазепа уособлював собою героя, який пройшов складний та яскравий шлях, знайшов істину, яка полягає в його боротьбі за свою незалежну державу, а також зазнав трагедії, оскільки був свідком початку кінця української незалежності. Метою статті є аналіз процесу створення двох протилежних художніх міфів про гетьмана Мазепу, які будували мистецький дискурс в ХІХ столітті. Актуальність обумовлена сучасними соціокультурними тенденціями, які загострюють ідею національної ідентифікації, а постать українського гетьмана є найвиразнішою. В наших реаліях важливо запропонувати новий погляд на сталі художні процеси, які тривали близько двохсот років назад. Новизна полягає в об’єднанні різних мистецьких проявів в єдину картину протиборства двох художніх світів, заснованих на стильовій естетиці та пропагандистській кампанії. Методологія базується на системному підході в аналізі історико-художніх процесів та явищ, який дозволяє об’єднати їх в цілісну картину. У висновку підсумовується, що процес створення міфу та антиміфу має різні часові відрізки. Якщо пропагандистська імперська ідея зародилась одразу після смерті Мазепи та пройшла декілька етапів – від провалу до успіху, то романтична ідея героїзації образу Мазепи була пов’язана з соціально-політичними викликами в Європі першої половини ХІХ століття, насамперед, національною ідентифікацією. На жаль, імперський міф став рівноправним до європейського – зусилля пропагандистської кампанії мали успіх. Роль Ліста та Чайковського в цьому процесі безпрецедентна.
ТВОРИ УКРАЇНСЬКИХ КОМПОЗИТОРІВ У КОНЦЕРТНО-ВИКОНАВСЬКІЙ ДІЯЛЬНОСТІ ПІАНІСТІВ ДІАСПОРИ США (ДРУГА ПОЛОВИНА ХХ СТ.)

У розлогій палітрі концертного репертуару піаністів північноамериканської діаспори другої половини ХХ ст. вагоме місце посідають твори українських композиторів, про що свідчать збережені численні програми за участі провідних українських митців діаспори. Завдяки своїй плідній праці вони ввійшли до когорти пропагандистів українського музичного мистецтва в полікультурному просторі. Зосередившись на гострій потребі збереження та відтворення національної культурної спадщини, українські піаністи прагнули познайомити світ з музичними надбаннями рідного народу, що найкраще вдавалося шляхом організації різноманітних мистецьких заходів та певною мірою сприяло входженню української культури у світовий мистецький простір. Безперечно, що виконавський арсенал для експонування цих творів на концертній естраді вимагав доволі високого рівня технічної підготовки, що виявлявся у ґрунтовній освіті та багатій концертно-виконавській практиці українських піаністів, завдяки чому їм найкраще вдавалося передати задум того чи іншого композитора. Такими майстерними інтерпретаторами у діаспорі були Микола Полевський, Борис Максимович, Роман Савицький, Дарія Гординська-Каранович, Вадим Кіпа, Таїсія Богданська, Євген Маслюк, Тома Гриньків, Роман Рудницький, Марія Цісик, Юліана Осінчук, Лариса Крупа, Ірина Пелех-Зварич, Ірина Кондра, Богдан Перфецький, Любомир Горницький, Христина Чвартацька, Марта Цибик, Клавдія Гоца, Богдан Сперкач, Оксана Луцишин та багато інших піаністів-виконавців, на прикладі мистецтва яких можемо аналізувати всю палітру творчого життя у діаспорі, а головно концертні виступи та особливості підібраного ними українського репертуару.

The speedy increase in the pollution of water bodies due to heavy metals discharged from tannery effluents is becoming a serious issue, calling for important measures to be taken to order to curtail water contamination. In this study, a low-cost adsorbent was prepared by carbonizing sweet dattock shell (Sd) for the removal of nickel (Ni) from tannery effluent. The two (Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin) and three (Redlich Peterson, Sips, Toths) parameter isotherm models were used to fit the equilibrium data using linear regression methods by applying error functions in determine the best adsorption isotherm model. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) were used to characterize the adsorbents. Sips and Langmuir were the best-fitted isotherm models for the process based on error functions. Chi-square error function predicted well for two-and three-parameter isotherm study having the lowest errors values. The FTIR showed a shift functional groups present at certain vibrations. The SEM affirmed irregular surface texture for the Sd with pore openings and whitish spots on the adsorbent. Also, Sd shell adsorption capacity proved efficient as an adsorbent for Ni removal from tannery effluents.
