Codzienne operacje arytmetyczne a problem kosztów podwójnego zadania: raport z eksperymentu behawioralnego kontrolowanego elektroencefalografem
Authors: Przybyła Tomasz , Klichowski Michał
Published: December 2020

Very recent studies show that a cognitive-motor interference can expose people not only to a motor danger but also weaken their cognitive capabilities. This effect is called the dual-task cost. One of the most popular examples of it nowadays is the smartphone use while walking, which is well examined. Yet, there are no studies that would analyse to what extent the other high-popular dual-task situation – shopping at the supermarket, weakens cognitive processes. To shed some light on this issue, we investigated a behavioral experiment on everyday mental calculations. Methods: Twenty mathematical-ly-educated adults took part in this study. We used stimuli in the form of shop labels. The participant’s task was to add two prices or state the price after a discount. They carried out the tasks by turns, either by standing (single-task) or walking with a shopping basket (dual-task). EEG controlled level of their attention. Results: We found that a cognitive-motor interference do not affected the everyday mental calculations. But, such familiar mental arithmetic as calculating prices after discounts was frighteningly difficultfor the participants. Conclusions: While our findingdoes not confirmthe occurrence of dual-task costs in everyday mental calculations, it has profound consequences for a mathematical education, which effects turn out to be useless in real life.
Teoria efektów stratyfikacyjnych Raymonda Boudona i jej współczesne implementacje w badaniach edukacyjnych.
Authors: Długosz Piotr
Published: December 2020

The aim of the article is to apply Raymond Boudon’s theory of educational inequalities to the analysis and explanation of educational inequalities in Poland. The theory of primary and secondary effects of stratification was tested among the groups of middle school students (N = 1787) and secondary school leavers (N = 1168). The results of the analyses in both groups confirmed the presence of all the mechanisms of educational inequalities formulated within Boudon’s theory. First of all, the influence of one’s standing and capitals on the attitude towards education was observed. The students from middle classes more often valued tertiary education highly and noticed the relationship between higher education and life success. Secondly, educational performance was higher among the students of higher status, equipped with capitals. Thirdly, in the case of identical educational achievements, more ambitious educational choices were made by students of higher status. Fourthly, the influence of middle schools on educational aspirations has been discovered. The results of the research confirmed the validity of the theory of effects of stratification and proved its relevance and usefulness in terms of researching the effects of educational changes in Poland.
Wyłaniający się rynek pracy – realia i wyzwania rzeczywistości postpandemicznej
Authors: Wawrzonek Anna
Published: December 2020

Following my research interests, I would like to reflect on professional work and focus on its new realities and challenges that the various participants of the labour market will face. As the new shape and system of forces creating the changing labour market become a challenge not only for employers, business owners, but also for employees, contractors and finally for counsellors and educators, the initial part of the study will include a short analysis of the current situation on the labour market modified by the pandemic. Next, the author will present the consequences of these changes which will be analysed from the perspective of the employer and the employee. At this point, it is worth noting that a large part of the sources on the basis of which this study was created are the internet sources, current reports, and messages which during the pandemic seem to be the most up-to-date source material.

“estratigrafia do abandono”: O caso do Museu da Cidade do Rio Grande – MCRG no extremo sul do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil.
Authors: Da Costa Matheus Pereira , Ribeiro Diego Lemos
Published: December 2020

De modo geral, coleções arqueológicas formadas a partir de coletas fortuitas e assistemáticas, que se encontram em instituições de guarda e pesquisa, como é o caso dos museus e universidades, não são alvo de preocupações científicas e de interesse social. Essa situação tem sido evidenciada por realidades institucionais marcadas por processos de isolamento e abandono dessas coleções, culminando no apagamento de memórias referentes ao passado indígena. O isolamento programático das fontes arqueológicas pré-coloniais tem sido observado no extremo sul do Rio Grande do Sul, a partir das relações que se estabelecem com as  coleções arqueológicas do Museu da Cidade do Rio Grande (MCRG). A partir da exposição de “pré-história da região sul”, propõe-se entender como a coleção arqueológica foi formada e quais são os discursos e narrativas construídos pela instituição referente ao passado pré-colonial da região. Com base nisso, sustentamos a possibilidade de retomar os estudos sobre conjuntos de objetos descontextualizados, como estratégia de reavivamento dessas coleções nos cenários museológicos e patrimoniais. Abstract: In general, the archaeological collections formed from random and unsystematic collecting that exist in institutions of safeguarding and research, like museums and universities, are not the object of scientific concern and social interest. This situation has been evidenced by institutional realities marked by processes of isolation and neglect, ending in the obliteration of a referential memory of the indigenous past. Thus the isolation of archaeological sources had been observed at the south end of Rio Grande do Sul, from the relations that were established with the archaeological collections of Museu da Cidade do Rio Grande (MCRG). From the exhibition “Prehistory of the southern region”, it proposed to understand how an archaeological collection was formed and which are the discourses and narratives built by the mentioned institution to the pre-colonial past of the region. Based on this, we support the possibility of retaking the studies of groups of out-of-context objects, promoting the revival of these collections in heritage and museum scenes.

Arqueologia Histórica e Contemporânea na Amazônia: por uma arqueologia elástica
Authors: Muniz Tiago Silva Alves
Published: December 2020

O presente artigo visa abordar aspectos da arqueologia histórica e contemporânea na Amazônia abordando a “Arqueologia do Período da Borracha” como ponto de partida para construção de uma noção de modernidade. A partir da criação de materiais como luvas, botas de borracha para neve e, finalmente, com o advento dos pneumáticos, a borracha propiciou aos humanos esticar suas interações com o meio. À medida que tais interações foram expandidas com a invenção e consolidação do ocidentalismo (ou modernidade), os actantes e conhecimentos emaranhados foram separados, produzindo os discursos da cientificidade e conhecimento em oposição aos saberes locais, enredando complexa trama de significados, devires e agências. Através de uma abordagem plural e multiespecífica, pretendo situar o estudo da materialidade do período da borracha como um campo de estudo da arqueologia do capitalismo, da arqueologia da modernidade e ecologia histórica em aproximação à arqueologia pública e contemporânea de modo mais elástico, mirado para as materialidades e comunidades. Abstract: This article aims to address particular aspects of historical and contemporary archaeology at Amazon Rainforest, addressing the “Archaeology of Rubber Boom” as starting point for building up a notion of modernity. From the creation of materials such as gloves, rubber snow boots and, finally, with the advent of tires, rubber allowed humans to stretch their interactions with the environment. As these interactions were expanded with the invention and consolidation of Westernism (or modernity), the actants and entangled knowledge were separated, producing discourses of scientificity and knowledge in opposition to local knowledge, entangling a complex web of meanings, becomings and agencies. Through a plural and multispecific approach, I intend to situate the study of the materiality of rubber boom as a field of study on archaeology of capitalism, archaeology of modernity and historical ecology within more elastic approaches to public and contemporary archaeology, aimed at materialities and communities.
TEORIA DA CONJUNTURA: UM DEBATE A PARTIR DOS GOVERNOS LULA
Authors: Narciso Pedro Felipe
Published: December 2020

Neste artigo pretendemos observar de modo criterioso quatro das principais análises de conjuntura que versam sobre o período em que Lula da Silva foi Presidente do Brasil, são elas: a) a análise do governo pós-neoliberal, b) a análise do governo de conciliação de classes, c) a análise do governo de arbitragem e d) a análise do governo da frente neodesenvolvimentista. Vale salientar que nosso objeto não são as análises em si, mas os sistemas teóricos que as sustentam, nesse sentido defendemos duas hipóteses complementares: primeiro, as três primeiras análises carregam consigo pelo menos uma inconsistência, ou o fetichismo de Estado ou o economicismo-voluntarista; e, segundo, a última análise citada supera essas deficiências por meio das teorias da conjuntura, do bloco no poder e das frações burguesas que aparecem ali em estado aplicado. Considerando que nosso objetivo é contribuir com a sistematização de uma teoria da análise de conjuntura buscamos evidenciar uma definição do conceito de conjuntura, os seus elementos constitutivos fundamentais e sua diferenciação em dois tipos básicos.
O SENTIDO DA RELAÇÃO ENTRE FORMAS ECONÔMICAS E FORMAS RELIGIOSAS – UMA INTERPRETAÇÃO DO FRAGMENTO CAPITALISMO COMO RELIGIÃO DE 1921
Authors: Dos Santos Wanderson Barbosa
Published: December 2020

Este artigo reflete sobre as afinidades eletivas entre as formas religiosas e as formas econômicas. Em vista disso, tomamos como mote reflexivo o fragmento filosófico Capitalismo como religião de Walter Benjamin. Amparados na contribuição antropológica, portanto, apontamos as conexões entre religião e economia mostrando por meio das obras de Durkheim, Mauss e Sahlins caminhos para a interpretação teórica do problema. O artigo visa mostrar os vínculos estruturais entre as formas de crença que alicerçam a economia e a religião. Em Durkheim encontramos as conexões das representações coletivas que fundamentam as crenças nas instituições sociais. Mauss contribui com a ênfase para a emergência de fenômenos sociais totais que orientam a vida coletiva. Por fim, Sahlins apresenta o caráter cultural do capitalismo tardio, sugerindo no utilitarismo a expressão prática dessa crença na modernidade capitalista. Embora sejam autores de matrizes teóricas distintas, encontramos um sentido comum em seus trabalhos, a saber, uma crítica ao utilitarismo e a visão restrita do economicismo. O fragmento benjaminiano, portanto, serve-nos para a composição de um estado da arte a respeito da reflexão sobre vínculos entre religião e economia.

Uberização e Covid-19: esgarçando as contradições do trabalho no século XXI.
Authors: Castelo Branco Pedro Mendonça , Comaru Francisco De Assis , Da Silva Sidney Jard
Published: December 2020

A pandemia da Covid-19 em poucos meses atingiu proporções globais e alterou a realidade de muitas pessoas que passaram a ficar boa parte dos seus dias em casa. Porém, milhões de trabalhadores uberizados no Brasil, e também no mundo, não tiveram essa opção, pela ausência de regulação trabalhista, e seguiram trabalhando para empresas de plataformas tecnológicas para conseguir sobreviver. Este ensaio pretende discutir como a pandemia do coronavírus esgarça e apresenta de maneira mais transparente as contradições e a precariedade do trabalho no século XXI, o trabalho uberizado como forma distante das formas públicas de regulação de direitos trabalhistas, de saúde ocupacional e sociais. Com isso, conclui-se que esta realidade coloca em risco a vida dos trabalhadores de maneira ainda mais aberta durante a pandemia e fragiliza sobremaneira a saúde coletiva no país. Porém, longe de uma conclusão catastrófica, encerramos apresentando algumas tendências de organização desde baixo pelos entregadores uberizados que desafiam as empresas de plataforma.Palavras-chaves: Uberização; Covid-19; Trabalho; Plataformas.

Ukraine. The first year of President Zelensky
Authors:   Institute of Europe, Russian Academy of Sciences, Mironenko Viktor
Published: December 2020

The article is an attempt to analyze some results of the first year of President V. Zelensky’s tenure. The time elapsed since his election is not long enough to fully answer the question whether the new leadership has met the electorate expectations. The COVID-19 pandemic, the economic crisis, and political uncertainty in Europe and beyond are all contributing factors. It is already possible to compare what has been made with what has been promised and try to give an idea of what will be the future trajectory of almost thirty years of the «Ukrainian transit». This is determined by the internal logic of Ukraine’s evolution, internal situation, and strong external influences. All factors mentioned have a roughly equal impact. The first one pushes forward, the second and the third – prevent it. The brief analysis shows that the public expectations on the eve of the elections ‒ both presidential and parliamentary ‒ consisted of a comprehensive and in-depth overhaul of the entire system of public administration. The article reveals that the policy goals of the new State administration of Ukraine, proclaimed by V. Zelensky, were objective and justified. However, the probability of their achievement is very low provided that the regime of the Third Ukrainian Republic is maintained. It is outdated and it should be replaced. The author concludes that this is the main challenge Ukraine is facing and a new generation of Ukrainian politicians will have to find an adequate response.
European Union’s Crisis Response Potential and Military-Technical Cooperation of the EU member-states
Authors:   Primakov National Research Institute of World Economy and International Relations, Russian Academy of Sciences, Nikitin Alexander
Published: December 2020

The article analyzes the origins and current trends in the development of the crisis response structures and mechanisms within the European Union. The reasons for the failures of the EU in the implementation of the plans of previous decades to create EU Armed Forces separate from NATO are being considered. Thirty-four military, police, border and consultative operations and EU missions in conflict regions are being typologized in the article. It is concluded that the most in-demand operations were EU police and numerous "training" or "consultative" missions aimed at creating modern and professional state security forces in unstable regions. Although formally the European Union is only a subregional international organization, in practice the EU does not consider it necessary to legitimize its own interventions into conflicts through UN mechanisms. Operations and missions are conducted on the basis of the European Council's own policy decisions. However, the EU does not conduct openly coercive military-political missions on its own, leaving decisions on them to the UN Security Council. The article analyzes the structure, types, purposes of several dozen programs of military-technical and military-political cooperation implemented by the European Union within the framework of the EU Permanent Structured Cooperation Program (PESCO). The author structurally subdivides PESCO programs into groups: structures and means of joint crisis response, military-infrastructure programs, naval initiatives, programs in information and communication and cyber-spheres, logistics and military-medical programs, military-training programs. The content of each group's programs is reviewed in detail. The article substantiates the conclusion that the implementation of the currently announced PESCO programs will strengthen mostly the EU's marginal (background) capabilities in operations and missions under the Common Security and Defense Policy. PESCO does not actually include programs directly aimed at any drastic improvement of capability for missions and operations in crisis and conflict regions outside the EU.
France's Approaches to Territorial Disputes Settlement
Authors:   National Research University Higher School of Economics, Zvereva
Published: December 2020

The article explores France's territorial disputes in Europe and beyond (in French overseas territories), as well as disputes settlement approaches adopted by Paris. The author outlines the historical background of the disputes and the motives of France to allocate significant funds in order to maintain high-cost overseas territories, some of them are disputed by regional countries. In Europe France relies on both bilateral mechanisms and EU instruments to settle disputes. The French territorial disagreements with other countries remain more acute overseas. Paris promotes a method of gradual settlement based on the idea that the joint development of disputed areas allows to mitigate contradictions and to create conditions for a long-term territorial settlement. The French overseas Department of Mayotte as a special territorial case is outlined. The Union of the Comoros claims are supported by the UN. The French rationale for retaining Mayotte as part of France despite the UN decision is based on the results of several referendums, when the island's residents voted for this idea.
Financial Transactions Tax as an Integration Development Instrument in the EU
Authors:   Russian Foreign Trade Academy, Lifshits Ilya
Published: December 2020

The adoption of a legal instrument relating to the harmonization of the ten Member States‟ laws on the financial transaction tax could be the first attempt in the EU history to establish an enhanced cooperation in the area of taxation. This project should be considered in the wider context of the financial sphere reform, which was caused by the global financial crisis. The draft Directive implementing enhanced cooperation in the area of the financial transaction tax has been discussed in the Council for 7 years but an accord has not been reached yet. The ambition of the European Commission to enlarge the scope of the financial transaction tax payers as much as possible is perceived by the non-participating Member States as an encroachment of their tax jurisdiction which contradicts the international customary law as well as The Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. An examination of the reasons of unsuccessful negotiations may lead to a conclusion on drawbacks of the enhanced cooperation in taxation policy. It is not likely that this mechanism would be used in the future to tax a very mobile financial market where the tax base may be easily transferred to the non-tax states. Meanwhile the participation of the leading EU States in the project, a wide public support of the „Robin Hood Tax‟ and Brexit suggest that in the coming months financial transactions in ten Member States will be charged by the harmonized tax. However, the scope of the tax would be reduced in comparison with that in the initial draft of the European Commission.
EU in the Modern World: problems of Regional Policy and Foreign Political Identity
Authors:   National Research Tomsk State University, Khakhalkina Elena
Published: December 2020

The article analyzes the regional policy of the European Union and the problems of regionalization through the prism of modern theoretical provisions about the region and identifying its place in the existing system of international relations; shows the EU's practical steps to assert its role as an independent actor in the world arena. Attention is focused on the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the processes of globalization, on the key principles of which ‒ the free movement of people and goods ‒ were dealt a noticeable blow. The pandemic has intensified the processes of regionalization, the strengthening of which occurred as a natural response to the challenge. The author of the article analyzes the problems of regionalism through the prism of a collective monograph by well-known experts on regionalism and international relations E.B. Mikhailenko and V. I. Mikhailenko "European Union's Foreign Policy in the XXI century. European interregionalism", which became a continuation of the scientific research of the authors at the Ural Federal University. The article focuses on such vulnerabilities of the EU's regional policy as poorly formed EU foreign policy identity; dependence in the field of security on the United States; insufficient use of the tools of "hard power" to defend their interests and promote their values and ideals. The still insufficiently meaningful manifestations and consequences of the pandemic have given additional relevance to the monograph, clarifying the origins, difficulties, trends in the implementation of the EU's foreign regional policy, the achievement of interregionalism, its goals and limits
European Union ‒ USA: On the Way to a “New Normality”
Authors:   Institute of Europe, Russian Academy of Sciences, Shumilin Alexander
Published: December 2020

The article analyzes the state of relations between transatlantic partners in the context of the presidential campaign in the United States, and also attempts to predict their development after November 2020.The presidency of D. Trump thoroughly shook the foundations of Euro-Atlantic solidarity. This applies to the parties' adherence to democratic values (Trump does not hide his sympathy for European leaders with a penchant for authoritarianism), and also applies to the interaction of the US and the EU in the trade, economic and military fields. While most European elites prefer the Democratic candidate Biden to win the presidential election, many analysts believe that his probable arrival in the White House will hardly change much. Transatlantic relations have already entered a stage of serious transformation. We can witness the emergence of a “new normal” in transatlantic relations, accepted by Brussels on the one hand and, apparently, by Biden's team, on the other. It is designed to reduce the previous scale of the EU's dependence on the United States in the field of defense, while fixing issues in relation where the approaches of the allies may not completely coincide or even differ significantly (a striking example is the fate of the “Nord Stream 2”). If implemented, this model of relations may prevent the emergence of new lines of tension between allies in the transatlantic partnership.
Recovering waste energy of the combined gas turbine system using paraffin melting
Authors: Najjar Yousef , Irbai Abdelrahman
Published: December 2020

This work covers waste energy utilization of the combined power cycle by using it in the candle raw material (paraffin) melting process and an economic study for this process. After a partial utilization of the burned fuel energy in a real bottoming steam power generation, the exhaust gas contains 0.033 of the initially burned energy. This tail energy with about 128 ºC is partly driven in the heat exchanger of the paraffin melting system. Ansys-Fluent Software was used to study the paraffin wax melting process by using a layered system that utilizes an increased interface area between the heat transfer fluid (HTF) and the phase change material (PCM) to improve the paraffin melting process. The results indicate that using 47.35 kg/s, which is 5% of the entire exhaust gas (881.33 kg/s) from the exit of the combined power cycle, would be enough for producing 1100 tons per month, which corresponds to the production quantity by real candle's factories. Also, 63% of the LPG cost will be saved, and the payback period of the melting system is 2.4 years. Moreover, as the exhaust gas temperature increases, the consumed power and the payback period will decrease.
Real time detection of milk’s spoilage using Au/GO bend SMF sensor based on localized surface plasmon resonance effect
Authors: Mukhtar Wan Maisarah , Kamarolzaman Izzati
Published: December 2020

Potential of hybrid gold nanoparticles/Graphene Oxide (Au/GO) coated single mode fiber (SMF) sensor by exploiting localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect for detection of spoiled milk is studied. Various diameters of SMF’s cladding are prepared ranging from its original size, d=0.1250mm to d=0.1215mm. A mechanical polishing technique using sandpaper is applied to etch the cladding area in which results the SMF with diameter less than 0.1250mm. Hybrid layers of Au/GO are deposited onto the SMF via drop-casting technique by varies the number of layers of GO between one to five layers, meanwhile Au nanoparticles are kept constant at one layer. To generate LSPR, light with excitation wavelength of 1310nm and 1550nm are transmitted at the first end of Au/GO coated SMF resulting in strong scattering and extinction spectra. The fiber is bend about 8cm in diameter to produce evanescent waves around it. To investigate the sensitivity of sensor in detecting milk’s spoilage condition, the Au/GO bend SMF sensor is immersed into the milk’s solution which has been exposed to the environment for 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours. The maximum optical power response, ΔP%=6.85% is obtained when the one layer of Au/GO coated bend SMF had been immersed into the milk solution with exposure time of 24 hours. The values of ΔP% decrease about 3.50% and 2.00% respectively with the increment of exposure time at 48 hours and 72 hours. These results indicate the sensing ability of our proposed sensor to detect different levels of spoiled milk as the exposure time increased. The output of this study validates the main role of LSPR effect in enhancing the sensitivity of Au/GO bend SMF sensor for real time detection of milk’s spoilage.

Published: December 2020

The thermal behavior of hot air in a natural convection mode on a solar absorber-plate has not been, so far, modeled experimentally. The present work aimed to assess the performance of the inclined solar air heater [SAH] experimentally by investigating the temperature distribution field in the natural convection flow. The solar plate collector is designed based on the aspect ratio of length to height, L / H, of 6 and 12. The measurements are carried out for the collector tilt angles of 30°, 45°, 60° and 75°. The present investigation demonstrates the temperature distribution of hot air floated in an inclined channel of the SAH. The investigation showed 2D thermal stratification increases when increasing the distance along the collector plate, which looks clear in the SAH with a height of 10 cm. The results of the study show that the thickness of the thermal layers increases with increasing the tilt angle from 30˚ to 75˚. The reason dates back to increasing the buoyancy force of the hot air over the absorber. The results demonstrated that the air temperatures for the height of 0.1 m and 45˚ tilt angle are higher than that for the height of 0.2 m by 23%.
Mathematical modeling of finite topologies
Authors: Monabbati S.E. , Torabi H.
Published: December 2020

Integer programming is a tool for solving some combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we deal with combinatorial optimization problems on finite topologies. We use the binary representation of the sets to characterize finite topologies as the solutions of a Boolean quadratic system. This system is used as a basic model for formulating other types of topologies (e.g. door topology and $T_0$-topology) and some combinatorial optimization problems on finite topologies. As an example of the proposed model, we found that the smallest number $m(k)$ for which the topology exists on an $m(k)$-elements set containing exactly $k$ open sets, for $k = 8$ and $k = 15$ is $3$ and $5$, respectively.

Published: December 2020

We carry out the group classification of a normalized class of generalized Kawahara equations with variable coefficients. Admissible transformations are studied, and the partition of the class into two normalized subclasses is performed. For each of these subclasses, the respective equivalence groupoids are found. As a result, all equations from the class admitting Lie symmetry extensions are revealed.

The atypical evolution of a solitary cylindrical wave that propagates in the nonlinear elastic medium and has the initial profile in the form of the Macdonald function is described and commented. In the analysis, the approximate method of restriction on the gradient of a deformation is used, and three first approximations are taken into account. Two examples of typical wave evolution — harmoniс and bell-shaped waves — are shown and commented, where the first three approximations are also taken into account. The numerical modeling showed that the atypical initial profile (profile without a hump) evolves atypically — the profile becomes essentially steeper, saving the concavity, and the wave bottom decreases almost two times.

This paper proposes a method of obtaining the first representative of a polymeric proton-conducting medium with protic ionic groups in the main chain of a polymer by the mutual neutralization of linear telechelic oligomers with end groups of the basic and acidic nature. Oligoethylene oxide containing 1-(3-aminopropyl) imidazole fragments with two types of basic centers (aliphatic secondary amine groups and imidazole fragments) at the ends of the chain was used as the oligomer with basic properties. Sulfonic acid-terminated oligoethylene oxide was used as the acid oligomer. Protonation of aliphatic secondary amino groups in the composition of the oligomer of the basic type with the formation of an ion-elongated polymer chain is more probable at the equimolar ratio of the starting compounds according to the analysis of ΔKa values. It is shown that the synthesized polymer contains two types of crystalline formations with melting points of 37.6 °C and 46.2 °C and turns into a liquid state, when heated to higher temperature values. The proton conductivity of the polymer under anhydrous conditions is close to the conductivity of the initial sulfonic acid-terminated oligomer in the temperature inter val of 40-100 °C and reaches 2.3 · 10–4 S/cm at 100 °C, despite a much lower content of proton charge carriers.

The increase of disorders of the cholesterol metabolism and the bile formation determines the need of the search for possible substances correcting the cholesterol metabolism in the liver. It is found that, in laboratory rats with an experimental drug form of steatosis, the excretion of cholesterol and, especially, cholesterol esters to the bile ducts is inhibited, and their ratio in bile is significantly impaired. The use of bioadditive “FLP-MD” made on milk phospholipids has a corrective effect on the concentration of cholesterol and its esters in bile of rats with tetracycline-induced steatosis. This allows us to recommend bioadditive “FLP-MD” made on milk phospholipids to improve the cholesterol metabolism in patients with clinical cases of drug-induced liver damage.
Relationship between the level of blood plasma amino acids with daily amount of group ventricular extrasystoles and the duration of pain or painless myocardial ischemia in patients with stable and unstable angina

Published: December 2020

It is now known that the human body suffering from coronary heart disease is trying to adapt to new working conditions through biochemical rearrangements, one of which is to increase the involvement of amino acids in car diomyocyte metabolism. Amino acids are metabolized in the myocardium under normal conditions, myocardial ischemia leads to a major restructuring of biochemical reactions, which increases the use of amino acids as metabolites. It is proved that myocardial ischemia, painless myocardial ischemia, and group ventricular extrasystoles are prognostic indicators of the adverse course of ischemic heart disease. According to the results of the study, in patients with stable (SA) or unstable angina (UA), the reliable correlations between the frequency of group ventricular extrasystoles and painless or painful myocardial ischemia with the levels of arginine, the amount of sulfur-containing amino acids and amino acids with branched lateral chain are formed. This indicates the pathogenetic role of the imbalance of the amino acid spectrum of blood plasma in the development of atherosclerosis, destabilization of coronary circulation, and the emergence of cardiac arrhythmia.
