Identificando sitios arqueológicos del Período de Desarrollos Regionales (siglos X a XV d.C) en el bosque montano tucumano: la cuenca de Anfama (Dpto. Tafí Viejo)
Authors: Vázquez Fiorani Agustina , Moyano Gonzalo , Salazar Julián
Published: April 2021

El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar los avances obtenidos en las tareas de identificación de sitios del Período de Desarrollos Regionales (siglos X a XV d.C) realizadas en la cuenca de Anfama (Dpto. Tafí Viejo, Tucumán), donde no se tenía ningún registro hasta el momento de ocupaciones asignables a este momento. Las actividades desarrolladas conjugaron tanto el trabajo con miembros de la comunidad indigena local como la intervención arqueológica, incluyendo la recolección de testimonios orales a los habitantes, el registro de piezas en su poder, prospecciones pedestres, relevamientos de brújula y cinta métrica corregidos a través de imágenes cenitales capturadas por drones y sondeos exploratorios y expeditivos. Consideramos que estos datos construidos mediante distintas metodologías constituyen un elemento para complejizar el debate sobre la naturaleza de los asentamientos de la primera mitad del segundo milenio de la Era en el piedemonte oriental de las Cumbres Calchaquíes.
Los templos y las manos: tacto y contacto entre el Egipto faraónico y contemporáneo
Authors: Marconetto María Bernarda
Published: April 2021

Entre las monumentales columnas y salas hipóstilas de los templos egipcios, entre millares de jeroglíficos, dioses, diosas, faraones, familias reales y sacerdotes, se inscriben también algunas historias que entendemos merecen y deben ser contadas. Existen en torno a estos espacios monumentales, narrativas y prácticas alternativas a la patrimonialización globalizada y a la egiptología clásica, mediadas por el accionar de gente que afecta y es afectada por esos espacios. Exploraré en este trabajo un especial vínculo entre la población contemporánea y los sitios arqueológicos faraónicos, en la zona que actualmente comprende la Gobernación de Lúxor (República Árabe de Egipto). Me centraré en un particular tipo de trazas, el oscurecimiento de algunos jeroglíficos, producto del repetido contacto con las manos. Discutiré la posibilidad de que conocimientos dispersados por una egiptología que lleva ya siglos de historia, es capturada y resignificada en torno a cuestiones muy potentes para esa comunidad como lo son el dar vida, la fertilidad y el lugar de las mujeres.

Differential expression of CPED1 in cancers of the breast.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: April 2021

Breast cancer affects women at relatively high frequency (1). We mined published microarray datasets (2, 3) to determine in an unbiased fashion and at the systems level genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with breast cancer. We report here significant differential expression of the gene encoding cadherin like and PC-esterase domain containing 1, CPED1, also known as PID1, when comparing primary tumors of the breast to the tissue of origin, the normal breast. CPED1 mRNA was present at significantly lower quantities in tumors of the breast as compared to normal breast tissue. Analysis of human survival data revealed that expression of CPED1 in primary tumors of the breast was correlated with recurrence-free survival in patients with luminal A subtype cancer, demonstrating a relationship between primary tumor expression of a differentially expressed gene and patient survival outcomes influenced by molecular subtype. CPED1 may be of relevance to initiation, maintenance or progression of cancers of the female breast.

Orang Banjar saat ini tidak bisa menghindar dari pengaruh global, di mana segala macam informasi dari berbagai penjuru dunia saling berpapasan dan berebut menuntut perhatian dan telah masuk ke ruang kehidupan mereka. Identitas orang Banjar adalah sebagai pemeluk Islam yang taat dalam beragama dan perantau ulung, apakah budaya merantau (madam) masih bisa bertahan di era global atau bahkan mulai terkikis dari akarnya? Orang Banjar mengenal beberapa tradisi yang senantiasa mereka jalani terkait dengan usaha menuntut ilmu, menyebarkan agama Islam, maupun usaha dagang. Di antaranya adalah tradisi madam, yaitu merantau atau imigrasi ke berbagai daerah Nusantara maupun luar negeri untuk menuntut ilmu, dakwah Islam, berdagang; atau di era sekarang kebanyakan orang Banjar merantau ke luar negeri, seperti Arab Saudi, Malaysia dalam rangka menjadi tenaga kerja. Madam atau merantau merupakan budaya masyarakat yang tinggal di pinggiran sungai atau laut. Hal ini bisa dilihat dari berbagai ras yang ada di Indonesia, seperti orang Minang, Aceh, Bugis, Jawa, Madura, Banjar adalah suku-suku yang terkenal sebagai pelaut, pedagang, dan perantau ulung.

Globally Inaccurate Stereotypes Can Result from Locally Adaptive Exploration
Authors: Bai Xuechunzi , Fiske Susan , Griffiths Tom
Published: April 2021

Inaccurate stereotypes -- perceived differences among groups that do not actually differ -- are prevalent and consequential. Past research explains stereotypes as emerging from a range of factors including motivational biases, cognitive limitations, and information deficits. Considering the minimal forces required to produce inaccurate assumptions about group differences, we show that locally adaptive exploration is sufficient: an initial arbitrary interaction, if rewarding enough, may discourage investigating alternatives that would be equal or better. Historical accidents can snowball into globally inaccurate generalizations, and inaccurate stereotypes can emerge in the absence of real group differences. Using multi-armed bandit models, we show that the mere act of choosing among groups with the goal of maximizing the long-term benefit of interactions is enough to produce inaccurate assessments of different groups. This phenomenon is reproduced in two large online experiments (N = 2404), demonstrating a minimal process that suffices to produce biased impressions.
Fatigue symptoms associated with COVID-19 in convalescent or recovered COVID-19 patients; a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Rao Sanjay , Benzouak Tarek , Gunpat Sasha , Burns Rachel , Tahir Tayyeb A. , Jolles Stephen , Kisely Steve
Published: April 2021

BackgroundThe prevalence and prognosis of post-acute stage SARS-CoV-2 infection fatigue symptoms remain largely unknown. AimsWe performed a systematic review to evaluate the prevalence of fatigue in post-recovery from SARS-CoV-2 infection. MethodMedline, Embase, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, trial registries, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Google Scholar were searched for studies on fatigue in samples that recovered from PCR diagnosed COVID-19. English, French and Spanish studies were included. Meta-analyses were conducted separately for each recruitment setting. Results We identified 41 studies with 9362 patients that recovered from COVID-19. Post-COVID-19 patients self-report of fatigue was higher compared to healthy controls (RR = 3.688, 95%CI [2.502, 5.436], p < 0.001). Over 50% of patients discharged from inpatient care reported symptoms of fatigue during the first (ER = 0.517, 95%CI [0.278, 0.749]) and second month following recovery (ER = 0.527, 95%CI [0.337, 0.709]). 10% of the community patients reported fatigue in the first-month post-recovery. Patient setting moderated the association between COVID-19 recovery and fatigue symptoms (R2 = 0.11, p < 0.001). Female patients recovering from COVID-19 had a greater self-report of fatigue (OR = 1.782, 95%CI [1.531, 2.870]). Patients recruited through social media had fatigue above 90% across multiple time points. Fatigue was highest in studies from Europe.ConclusionFatigue is a symptom associated with functional challenges which could have economic and social impacts. Developing long-term planning for fatigue management amongst patients beyond the acute stages of SARS-CoV-2 infection is essential to optimizing patient care and public health outcomes. Further studies should examine the impact of sociodemographic, pandemic-related restrictions and pre-existing conditions on fatigue.
Individuals’ empathic perception and compassionate intention when given an opportunity to help
Authors: shepherd lee , Gulliford Liz , Sharpe Oliver , Booth David A.
Published: April 2021

This paper implements the innovative theory that mental processes discriminate present from past social and physical environments for an example of charitable donation. The theory specifies designs for questionnaires that measure individuals’ mechanisms of perception, emotion and decision in particular circumstances. The example illustrated here was helpfulness in response to an appeal for donations towards a wheelchair. Eight vignettes of that scenario orthogonally varied degree of immobility, price of wheelchair, and availability or not of a charity’s grant towards the purchase. The cost of the wheelchair was generally the greatest influence on the decision to donate. The described disability and the (lack of) a subsidy had minor effects. These reasons for helping had a greater influence than emotional involvement. Experimental analysis of common helpful acts opens the practical prospect of cross-situational psychometrics of altruistic thoughts and feelings.
Lessons learnt from design and construction of dams in Brazil
Authors: Cruz Paulo Teixeira da
Published: April 2021

This paper deals with design and construction of dams built in Brazil. A brief introduction on the history of these dams is followed by the main types of dams, that due to the environment, site topography, climate, foundation conditions and borrow materials, have been considered the most adequate and economical both for irrigation purposes or power generation.

A second item deals with peculiar behaviour of the residual soils used as construction materials regarding flow aspects and construction pore pressures. The use of saprolitic soils is also discussed as well as of rock materials that disintegrate under drying and wetting cycles.

The shear strength parameters of these materials obtained in laboratory and field tests are presented. The compressibility and the stability of the dams, and the measured flows through the foundations are reported.
Consolidation of high water content soils in an estuarine environment
Authors: Bras Gilbert Le , Alexis Alain
Published: April 2021

The constant silting up of ports and estuaries makes it necessary to carry out dredging operations to ensure free access to port infrastructure. The dredged materials are disposed of at sea, with the creation of a maritime deposit, or stored on land in decantation pools. In each case, this leads to the creation of high water content soil. This paper presents a geotechnical laboratory approach to the formation of high water content soils on an experimental sedimentation/consolidation test bench. The original feature of this test bench is that it is possible to carry out highly accurate pressure and density measurements in a time very close to the beginning of the test. These measurements are used to analyse the changes in the total stress, the pore pressure, and the effective stress. On a diagram showing the void ratio/effective stress, we have highlighted the changes in the intermediate phases of the formation of a natural soil which consolidates under its own weight.
Effectiveness of in situ P-wave measurements in monuments: examples from Greece
Authors: Christaras B.
Published: April 2021

P and S wave velocities can be used for both in situ and laboratory measurements of stones. These methods are used for studying such properties as mechanical anisotropy and modulus of elasticity. In this paper, the P-wave velocities were used for the estimation of the depth of weathered or artificially consolidated layers as well as the depth of cracks developed at the surface of the building stone. This estimation was made in relation to the lithology and texture of the materials, given that in many cases different lithological data create similar diagrams. All tests were carried out on representative monuments in Greece.
Determination of shear wave velocity from borehole database in the Osaka Basin, Japan
Authors: Pathak Dinesh , Iwasaki Yoshinori , Nakagawa Koichi
Published: April 2021

The shear wave velocity (Vs) provides important information on the properties of subsurface material that has significance in earthquake engineering and in the other works to be carried out in the major cities on alluvial basins. An empirical relationship has been obtained for the Vs with the N value (from standard penetration test) and depth for different geological facies of varying age using the database of 84 investigation boreholes in the Osaka Basin. The calculated and observed shear wave velocities are very close to each other. The obtained equation has been applied to calculate Vs (m/sec) and to draw shear wave velocity profiles across the major sections of the Osaka Basin.
Radiometric and geoelectric response of karst structures in Mahendra and Chamero Caves, Pokhara Valley, Nepal
Authors: Gautam Pitambar , Pant Surendra Raj , Ando Hisao , Wagle Raghu Nath
Published: April 2021

Natural gamma ray intensity and electrical resistivity measurements were made over the karst features (subsurface flow­ channels, solution cavities, and sinkholes) forming the Mahendra and Chamero Caves in the Pokhara Valley, central Nepal. The layered basin-filling Quaternary elastic sediments comprising gravel, silt, and clay constitute the upper 60-80 m section of the Pokhara Valley. Depending mainly on lithology, they differ widely in electrical resistivity (a few hundred s to several tens of thousands of Ohm m) making them suitable for mapping by resistivity methods. In favourable cases, electrical imaging is useful for assessing the layered structure as well as localised void spaces. Total gamma ray intensity profiles reveal significant anomalies (up to 100 counts per second) over the subsurface openings. The gamma-ray method is sensitive to near-surface cavities and is effective in locating the karstified structures, whereas the electrical images provide quantitative estimates of the depth to such features.
Rainwater harvesting: a means of ensuring groundwater resources of the Barind, NW Bangladesh
Authors: Sattar Golam Shabbir
Published: April 2021

The present study focuses on rainwater harvesting for irrigation and homestead purposes. The undulatory Barind Tract (Pleistocene terrace) covers about 7,250 sq. km and is underlain by thick clay-rich palaeosol sequences. Groundwater of this region is used as the only resource to meet the increasing irrigation demand for production of food to nourish over a million people. Thick clay beds at the top of aquifer and discontinuous subsurface proximal recharge areas have significantly reduced both vertical and lateral recharge potential. Groundwater domain of the Barind Tract has also reached a critical state due to low rainfall, scarcity of surface water sources, and unplanned tapping of groundwater by ever-increasing number of tube wells. As a result, overdraft of groundwater is quite evident. The present situation apparently poses a serious threat to the ecosystem of the study area.

To stop further deterioration of groundwater development in the Barind Tract, a rainwater harvesting technique was tested by excavation of ponds at on-farm level. Results of a three-year long experiment demonstrated that an appropriate and timely intervention helps the community to overcome the problem of increasingly acute water shortage. The present study revealed that the rainwater harvesting is very cost-effective and may prevent a potential economic and social disaster of the Barind Tract.
Harnessing unexploited water resources - hydrogeology of springs in the midland regions- a case study from India
Authors: Nazimuddin M. , Saseendran K. , Nair S. R. , Suvarnakumari N.
Published: April 2021

The paper describes a case study on spring development in a typical midland region of the Thiruvananthapuram District in Kerala, India. Field investigations show that there are eleven perennial springs, which can be developed as drinking water supply schemes. These springs are 'contact ' springs formed at laterite-sandstone, laterite- khondalite, and laterite-coastal alluvium. One of the springs developed between the contact of laterite and khondalite in the midland area is presented in this paper. The summer discharge of the spring is 28.800 l/day and benefits 100 local people. The paper also brings out a comparison between bored well and spring water supply scheme in this midland area.
Glacier disasters in the French Alps
Authors: Valla Francois , Reynaud Louis , Buisson Anne , Guirado Florence
Published: April 2021

In France, an extensive inventory of glacier-induced disasters was started by LGGE-CNRS and CEMAGREF-ETNA in 1998 for the French Alps. Inquiries, archive s, and field visits made it possible to register more than a hundred events during the past two centuries. Results are synthesised in specific cards for each glacier with its geographic description (location, parameters, picture) and a short summary of the event. The French Alps are divided into four massifs and the example from the Mont Blanc Range is presented in this paper. Three main types of hazard associated with the glaciers are: outburst of glacier lakes, fall of ice (repetitive serac falls or glacier tongue ruptures), and draining of internal water pockets. Temporal distributions are analysed for each hazard based on the past French and Swiss glacier disasters. It is also proposed to create a "French glacier observatory" as well as to seek an extensive co-operation at the scale of the whole Alps.
Landslide hazards in eastern Himalayas
Authors: Mitra Arupkumar , Ghosh A. K.
Published: April 2021

The Himalayas, with extreme variations in relief, are characterised by very steep slopes, harsh (i.e. cold and humid) climate and a dynamic geotectonic setting. These characteristics appear responsible for widespread slope failures and mass movements, which are often accentuated by various human activities. The importance and severity of landslide phenomenon was not recognised until recently because of sparse habitation, remoteness of its occurrence, and limited sphere of influence of the individual slides. During the last few decades, increasing developmental activities, such as unplanned urbanization, communication, dam construction, deforestation, and agriculture, have substantially affected the geo-environment and aggravated the landslide hazard in the eastern Himalayas.

Three sample areas: i) along the National Highway 31 A (the East Sikkim District), ii) in the area of the Rarnmarn Hydroelectric Project Stage II (the Darjeeling District), and iii) in the Kalimpong Municipal area (the Darjeeling District), all within the inner tectonic belt of the Lesser Himalaya, were investigated for preparing LHZ maps on 1:25,000 scale. Landslide hazard evaluation factors (LHEF) were rated for each of the major causative factors, namely lithology, structure, slope morphometry, relative relief, land use, and drainage density, and summed up to obtain the total estimated hazard (TEHD) values for each slope facet. The TEHD values from 0 to 10 were classified into live zones of increasing relative hazard.
Study of a debris torrent in the Dolomites, Italy
Authors: Biscuola Elena , Turrini Maria Chiara
Published: April 2021

The Dolomites are situated in a region characterised by the presence of widespread debris flows, which originate at the foot of sub-vertical rocky walls and involve the underlying debris talus. These flows are characterised by the scantiness of the planimetric surface in the watershed and, when they are not channelled, by the variability of the courses from one event to another. This paper describes the study of a channelled debris flow or debris torrent, which periodically jeopardises the built-up area of San Vigilio di Marebbe (Bolzano). This town is located on a large alluvial fan formed by the torrents Ermo and Fojed6ra. The beds of both torrents are constantly full of debris, which is partly contained by many dams and mostly carried away by the water that undercuts the banks. The Fojedora, in particular, which until 1971 ran through the town carrying with it considerable amounts of debris, regularly damaged the town. As a result of these incidents, the last part of the course of the Fojed6ra was artificially diverted into the Ermo by the construction of a 4 m high and 320 m long dyke. In this way the flows, which continued to run through the torrent in the following years, were confined in the channel, and the only danger was that posed by the damming of the main channel into which the torrent Fojed6ra-Ermo flows.

The last important event took place on 27 July 1995 following a short but bad cloud burst in the upper reaches. It mobilised a considerable amount of debris and gave rise to a flow, which was contained by the dyke, and temporarily obstructed the main torrent and the valley floor.

The aim of the study was to reveal the mechanisms that might trigger off the flows, to analyse the morphometry of the deposits in order to characterise these deposits in terms of grain size, and to assess the possibility of damage to the infrastructure. The work was carried out in the following phases:

- a historical reconstruction of past events from both historical documents and the "memories" of the oldest inhabitant s of the town:

- a study of the precipitation records of two meteorological stations located near the landslide area; and

- a topographical reconstruction of the flow route in order to map the main morphological elements , such as channels, scarps, banks, and lobes, and to carry out the grain size analysis of sediments.

Detailed mapping of the alluvial fan by mean s of overlaying slope and land use maps was aimed at evaluating whether a possible flow that was not contained by the dyke might reach San Vigilio di Marebbe.
Palaeoseismicity in the Koteshwor area of the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal, inferred from the soft sediment deformational structures
Authors: Gajurel A. P. , Huyghe P. , Upreti B. N. , Mugnier J. L.
Published: April 2021

Palaeoseisms have left their imprints within the Plio-Pleistocene tluvio-lacustrine soft sediments of the Kathmandu Basin. Recently, a temple foundation excavation at Koteshwor exposed a soft sediment layer with deformation al structures. The deformed horizon ranges in thickness from 60 to 90 cm. It can be separated into the following three zones, from top to bottom, respectively: (1) homogenised zone. (2) ball-and-pillow zone, and (3) basal zone. The shaking forces strongly agitated the topmost soft-sediment layer, and in this process, the sediments wcre mixed-up, producing subsequently the homogenised zone. At Koteshwor, the homogenised zone ranges in thickness from 15 to 20 cm. It is associated in a few places with micro-debris containing carbonised wood fragments. In the ball-and-pillow zone, the ball-and-pillow structures are 35-79 cm long and 11- 35 cm high. The laminae of the ball-and-pillow structures are strongly folded or disrupted and recumbent folds are locally observed. The central parts of the ball-and-pillow structures are mostly homogenised and 2-3 cm long wood fragments are accumulated in a few places at the bottom of these structures. In the basal zone (up to 55 cm thick), sediments are upraised and plastically deformed. A marker layer in the basal zone attests to the simultaneity of compression and extension deformational structures, a combination of structures that excludes the slope failure origin for the soft sediment deformation and that is clearly related to ground shaking during an earthquake.

The fluvio-lacustrine sediments of the Kathmandu Basin consist of a thin alternation of weakly consolidated and cohesionless silty and sandy layers exhibiting rather good sorting. These conditions and physical properties make them suitable for hydroplastic deformation, liquefaction, and/or tluidisation. Previous studies showed that earthquake-induced liquefaction and fluidisation deformational structures are connected with seismics hocks of M>5. The soft sediment deformational structures with a thickness varying between 60 and 90 cm in a lacustrine environment are formed in seismic intensity zones greater than IX. It is therefore interred that the palaeoseism intensity at Koteshwor was larger than the intensities of the 1833 and 1934 historical earthquakes affecting the Kathmandu Basin.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CHANGES IN IMMUNE STATUS AND DISORDERS OF PSYCHO-EMOTIONAL STATE IN PREGNANT WOMEN WITH IN VITRO FERTILIZATION AND THREATENED PREMATURE BIRTH
Authors: Likhachov V.K. , Shymanska Ya.V. , Dobrovolska L.M.
Published: April 2021

Women who experience failures at the stage of fertilization or during pregnancy can develop psycho-emotional stress as a result of prolonged negative emotions with a high level of anxiety, neurotic conflict, often accompanied by a complicated pregnancy. The international academic literature discusses a possible link between high levels of anxiety and depression, on the one hand, and changes in the state of the immune system, on the other. The aim of the research was to identify the relationship between psycho-emotional changes in pregnant women with in vitro fertilization and threatened premature birth and changes in their immune status. The psycho-emotional state was studied in 60 women in the second trimester of pregnancy with a history of infertility, whose pregnancy resulted from IVF, and with threatened premature birth. As a control group, 20 healthy women with a physiological course of pregnancy were examined. The levels of trait (TA) and state anxiety (SA), as well as the degree of depressive disorders in these women, were assessed. In parallel, the levels of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and the state of cellular-humoral immunity were determined, looking for correlations between these indicators, the levels of anxiety, and manifestations of depression in the examined patients. Pregnant women with in vitro fertilization and threatened premature birth revealed high levels of state (53.3% of women) and trait (56.8% of women) anxiety; 70% of pregnant women are dominated by euphoric, anxious, and depressive types of the psychological component of gestational dominant; 33.3% of the examined women demonstrated a state of mild and masked depression. Correlations were found between an increase in SA and TA scores and an elevated concentration of TNF-α and INF-γ, as well as between an increase in the level of TNF-α and the score of depression. A connection was found between a decrease in the number of T-helpers and an increase in the TA score in the examined patients.

Дослідження проведено на нелінійних білих щурах-самцях двох серій досліджень, які впродовж 60 днів перебували на йододефіцитному їзокалорійному крохмально-казеїновому харчовому раціоні: перша серія − дві групи старих щурів вагою 0,400−0,450 кг, друга серія − дві групи статево незрілих щурів вагою 0,060−0,090 кг. У кожній групі було по 5 щурів. Тваринам експериментальних груп кожної серії 10% казеїну в раціоні було замінено на органічний йод, який надходив із йодобілковим препаратом із червоної чорноморської водорості філофори ребристої (Phyllophora nervosa). Функціональний стан щитоподібних залоз вивчали препаратом “Na131І 131 I Injection”. Дозиметрію проводили з використанням газорозрядного лічильника Гейгера-Мюллера СТС-6. Радіоіндикація щитоподібних залоз відбувалася після підшкірного вводення 0,1 мл розчину 131I у такі часові інтервали: 0,5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, 72 і 96 годин від моменту введення 131I. Результати дослідження представляли у відсотках від дози введеного радіойоду з поправками на показники природного фону та радіоактивного розпаду препарату. Установлено, що в умовах дефіциту йоду щитоподібні залози старих щурів мають вищі показники поглинання радіойоду і меншу швидкість його виведення, ніж залози статево незрілих щурів, що свідчить про їхній менший йодний резерв і більшу схильність до йододефіцитної патології. Приймання органічного йоду незалежно від віку щурів супроводжується зниженням рівня накопичення радіойоду та прискоренням його виведення із щитоподібних залоз, що вказує на зменшення функціонального напруження, проте залози старих щурів поглинають більше йоду і виводять його повільніше, що свідчить про меншу ефективність коригування дефіциту йоду при збільшенні віку. Знижену функціональну активність щитоподібних залоз старих щурів перспективно використовувати як чутливий маркер змін при поглибленому вивченні тиреотропних та тиреодизрапторних ефектів.
ENGLISH VERSION: AGE FEATURES OF RADIOACTIVE IODINE (131I) ABSORPTION BY RAT THYROID GLANDS IN CORRECTION OF THE DIETARY IODINE DEFICIENCY WITH ORGANIC IODINE
Authors: Ryabukha O.I.
Published: April 2021

The structure of endocrine morbidity is characterized by a significant spread of thyroid pathology. The insufficient efficacy of inorganic iodine drugs poses the problem of search for new means for iodine deficiency treatment and prevention. Given the progressive aging of the population in economically developed countries, the purpose of the study was to clarify the effect of organic iodine on the features of absorption and elimination of radioactive iodine from the thyroid glands of variously aged rats in the conditions of iodine deficiency in the diet. The study was performed on nonlinear white male rats in two series of studies that were kept on iodine-deficient isocaloric starch-casein diet for 60 days: the first series included two groups of old rats weighing 0.400-0.450 kg, the second series – two groups of sexually immature rats weighing 0.060-0.090 kg. There were 5 rats in each group. In animals of the experimental groups in each series, 10% of casein in the diet was replaced with organic iodine, which came with iodine-protein preparation from the red Black Sea algae Phyllophora nervosa. The functional state of the thyroid gland was studied using the Sodium Iodide Na 131 I Injection drug. The dosimetry was performed using the STS-6 Geiger-Muller Detector. Radioindication of the thyroid gland was carried out after subcutaneous administration of 0.1 ml of 131I solution at the following time intervals: 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours after administration of 131I. The study results were presented as a percentage of the radioiodine dose administered, adjusted for natural radioactivity background and the radioactive decay of the drug. It was found that in the iodine deficiency conditions, the thyroid glands of old rats have higher rates of radioiodine absorption and a lower rate of its excretion than the glands of immature rats, which indicates their lower iodine reserve and greater liability to iodine deficiency pathology. Intake of organic iodine regardless of the rats’ age is accompanied by a decrease in radioiodine accumulation and acceleration of its excretion from the thyroid gland, which indicates a decrease in functional stress, but the glands of older rats absorb more iodine and excrete it more slowly, indicating less effective correction of iodine deficiency with age. Reduced functional activity of the thyroid glands in old rats can be used as a sensitive changes marker for the in-depth study of thyrotropic and thyroid disrupting effects.
Official Language Designation: Constitution-Building Primer 20

Published: April 2021

Modern constitutions typically contain a variety of provisions on language. They may designate one or more official languages, each with a different kind of legal status. Constitutions may also create language rights, usually held by minority-language speakers, granting groups and individuals the right to communicate with, and receive services from, the government in their native tongue. In systems of multi-level governance, constitutions may vest the authority to designate official language(s) for each order of government. This Primer addresses the role of language in constitutional design, and the key considerations, implications and potential challenges that arise in multilingual states. It discusses the range of claims around language as a constitutional issue, and the potential consequences of successfully addressing these claims—or failing to do so.
