Asociación entre formación virtual durante confinamiento COVID-19 y síntomas de depresión, ansiedad y estrés en estudiantes de medicina en prácticas clínicas post pandemia 2023
Authors: Maldonado Llizcano Maritza Lizbeth , Castaño Gutiérrez Jorge Ivan , Willougby Diaz Sherlyn
Published: July 2024

El COVID-19 causó aislamiento preventivo, prohibición de reuniones grupales, clases presenciales y prácticas clínicas suspendidas. Los estudiantes continuaron sus estudios con metodología virtual, desde marzo 2020 hasta diciembre 2021, regresando a la presencialidad académica en 2022-1. Objetivo: analizar la asociación entre la formación virtual recibida durante confinamiento por COVID-19 (2020-2021) y síntomas de depresión, ansiedad y estrés en estudiantes de medicina de la Universidad de Pamplona que realizan prácticas clínicas en postpandemia 2023. Método: estudio observacional transversal analítico, realizado en 205 estudiantes, se usó escala DASS-21 y cuestionario autoadministrado de variables académicas, sociodemográficas y de uso tiempo libre, ocio y religión. Resultados: se encontraron síntomas de depresión (57,6%), ansiedad (57,6%) y estrés (55,1%) de los estudiantes; los valores de sintomatología encontrados son superiores a la media nacional y a otras investigaciones similares. El riesgo de depresión varía con la edad de los estudiantes (p< 0.029) siendo mayor en estudiantes en edades tempranas. La dificultad para aplicar en las prácticas los conocimientos adquiridos durante la formación virtual se constituyó en el principal hallazgo, siendo la probabilidad de padecer depresión de 4, 6 y 7 veces mayor en los estudiantes que consideraron regular, difícil y muy difícil la aplicación de conocimientos adquiridos en virtualidad en las prácticas. Conclusiones: sí hubo relación estadísticamente significativa con la dificultad para aplicar en las prácticas clínicas los conocimientos adquiridos en la virtualidad, donde a mayor dificultad, mayor grado de depresión y estrés. La calidad del sueño es un factor protector al igual que la funcionalidad familiar.

Introduction to actinic damage and actinomycetes as a promising source for eco-friendly photoprotective compounds
Authors: Sánchez-Suárez Jeysson , Díaz Luis , Villamil Luisa , Coy-Barrera Ericsson
Published: July 2024

The use of sunscreens is a fundamental strategy of an effective photoprotection scheme. Currently, several ultraviolet (UV) filters have been questioned for their side effects, mainly those that harm the environment. Therefore, there is a demand to find compounds with photoprotective properties. In this regard, natural products have traditionally been a promising source of compounds with diverse biological activities, including those related to photoprotection. Recently, natural microbial products have shown very promising opportunities supported by biotechnological advances, including those possibilities opened up by computer-aided tools. Under this scenario, several studies have recognized the great potential of the phylum Actinomycetota as a source of compounds with photoprotective properties. This review examines how solar radiation induces skin photodamage, explores existing photoprotection strategies, and highlights the immense potential that lies in the specialized metabolism of actinomycetes. These microorganisms offer a rich and untapped vein for the development of innovative products that could transform the sun protection industry.

Authors: Cardenas Cardenas Alejandra , Cortés Pérez Francisco
Published: July 2024

El páramo Rabanal abarca 4172 hectáreas, de las cuales el 16% corresponde al municipio de Samacá, cuenta con dos embalses, una represa para almacenamiento y regulación de agua y plantaciones de pino que generan la inmovilización de nutrientes, la reducción de la capacidad para realizar procesos de reciclaje, y acidificación de suelos. El presente estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar el efecto de las plantaciones de Pinus patula sobre el suelo y la vegetación del páramo Rabanal en el municipio de Samacá-Boyacá. Teniendo en cuenta la vegetación del páramo y la plantación en términos de altura, cobertura, frecuencia y DAP de las especies. En el páramo se registraron 16 familias, 35 géneros y 42 especies, en 501 individuos, las especies más abundantes fueron Espeletia boyacensis, Paepalanthus alpinus, Arcytophyllum nitidum y Puya nitida, versus el páramo sembrado con P. patula donde se registraron 6 familias, 6 géneros y 6 especies, con 80 individuos, respecto al suelo, las variables que presentaron diferencias significativas fueron calcio, magnesio, saturación de magnesio, Mg/K y K/Mg. En el caso de estudio la plantación forestal ha eliminado el 88% de las especies nativas del páramo y ha disminuido la cobertura de las 5 especies que aún permanecen allí. Las propiedades del suelo variables, como el tipo de elementos e intercambio son muy similares entre los dos sitios, debido a la disponibilidad de agua y nutrientes que tiene P. patula en el área de estudio. Esta investigación sirve como insumo para tomar medidas técnicas y de manejo aplicables para los páramos colombianos.

Mathematical modeling of statistical data on the incidence of new coronavirus infection, taking into account the stratification by concomitant diagnoses
Authors: Borovsky Andrei Viktorovich , Galkin Andrey Leonidovich , Kozlova Svetlana Sergeevna
Published: July 2024

The article considers the stratification of concomitant diagnoses of Covid-19 recovery statistics for the city of Irkutsk for 2020-2021. The previous study was conducted without taking into account such stratification. Various options for approximating real statistics by Gaussian and Lorentz functions, gamma distribution, and Johnson curves are considered. It is shown that the stratification of recovery statistics improves the approximation of Gaussian and Lorentz functions in comparison with integral statistics, and the construction of an approximation based on the Lorentz function always describes the real statistics better. Estimates of mathematical expectation and variance based on statistical data are consistent with estimates of these values based on the Gaussian approximation of statistics by the least squares method, i.e. the approaches are equivalent. At the same time, calculations of the Pearson Chi-squared criterion reject the hypothesis that empirical data correspond to the assumed theoretical distribution. Therefore, we cannot talk about finding the distribution function, but only about approximating statistics by certain types of curves. The fitting of empirical data by Gaussian and Lorentz functions was carried out using the least squares method. In general, the approximation error due to the stratification of statistics on concomitant diagnoses decreases from 6% to 3%.
Anglo-French Guarantees to Poland and Romania in 1939: Documents and Interpretations
Authors: Ivanov Alexander G. ,   Kuban State University
Published: July 2024

The subject of this article has sustained enduring interest among historians for many years and pertains to sig-nificant issues regarding the origins of the Second World War. Appraisals of the Anglo-French guarantees to Poland and Romania in historical literature vary widely, ranging from official endorsements aligning with the views of British Prime Minister N. Chamberlain and his ministers to critical evaluations. Documents of the For-eign Office’s fund of the National Archives in London presented in the article make it possible to correct much of the material published and to understand motivation of appeasers and their diplomatic combinations. The German annexation of Czechoslovakia in March 1939 did not signify Britain’s abandonment of appeasement policies, contrary to the beliefs of many Western historians. Similarly, the Anglo-French guarantees to Poland and Romania did not constitute a “diplomatic revolution”. The author's analysis concludes that these guarantees aimed to placate public opinion in Western states, which advocated for a broader anti-German alliance, and were intended to deter Hitler. However, Nazi demands for full concessions akin to those at Munich were unac-ceptable. The Munich era had passed, and Hitler was resolutely intent on invading Poland, which he did on September 1, 1939. Britain and France declared war on Germany on September 3, but military actions were scarce on the Western Front, marking the beginning of the “Phoney War”, a conflict characterized by minimal military engagements. This was the outcome of pre-war appeasement policies towards fascist states.

Obra que compendia una serie de colaboraciones que muestran las luces y sombras de una realidad mexicana donde conviven el comportamiento de quienes desarrollan las ganancias de productividad, por una parte, y de aquellos que usufructúan la captura de rentas, por la otra cada vez más asociada con blindajes nómades o sedentarios cuyo accionar hipoteca pesadamente a las potencialidades de una economía que esta ingresando a un nuevo ciclo de la renta petrolera. El trabajo se presenta en dos partes; la primera reúne tres aspectos de encuadramiento para esta economía, y la segunda siete asuntos especiales de la misma. La primera parte, capítulo uno a tres, delimita conceptualmente a la economía abierta de México en un mundo convulsionado por la crisis de la variedad de capitalismos iniciada en 2008. La segunda, capítulos cuatro a diez, particulariza una serie de problemas mexicanos que dibujan un fresco contrastado por la realidad de rezagos y potencialidades, pero no solamente por una entidad económica que podría juzgarse ennegrecida por el derrotismo de la apatía.
Modern Russian youth as the target audience of destructive propaganda
Authors: Dortseva E. V.
Published: July 2024

This article is devoted to the sociological analysis of a wide range of problems related to the phenomenon of propaganda, carried out mainly in a destructive form, in order to influence modern Russian youth.

The author agrees with the classics of socio-political thought that "propaganda permeates all aspects of human life - a mechanism for the large-scale dissemination of ideas" aimed at forming or changing perceptions of the surrounding reality among broad social groups. At the same time, he emphasizes that ideology is often the basis of propaganda, but if ideology is a coherent system of ideas and ideas, then propaganda is their active dissemination in various, sometimes quite aggressive forms, designed for a specific audience, which is most often served by young people.

The article states that after the collapse of the USSR, in the conditions of an ideological vacuum, the concept of propaganda completely disappeared from the domestic public discourse, therefore, modern youth does not have adequate ideas about its content. In confirmation, the results of a sociological survey conducted among students of the Faculty of Sociology of Moscow State University are presented, which showed that misconceptions about the essence of this phenomenon prevail among students.

The author draws a distinction between constructive and destructive propaganda, the characteristic features of which include the imposition of certain views, which in the future should lead to the goals pursued by the subjects of propaganda. These include incitement to discord, escalation of social conflicts, aggravation of social contradictions, formation of anti-humanistic beliefs, plunging people into the quagmire of social evil, confrontation with each other.

The predominant object of destructive propaganda is a youth audience with an unformed or deconstructed value system that does not have critical thinking or special analytical skills, but is subject to emotional, mental and, especially, information overload. The most important subject of destructive propaganda against Russian youth has traditionally been the ideologists of the special services of foreign states and international organizations using so-called "agents of influence" or "foreign agents" (in modern terminology).

The article examines in detail the mechanisms used by the subjects of destructive propaganda to form the views, values, and beliefs desired by them among modern Russian youth. The author concludes that the methods and models of destructive propaganda influence have undergone significant changes in the era of the formation of electronic and digital civilization. At the heart of "digital" propaganda are the characteristic features that distinguish this specific communication process, in which "new media" are increasingly being included, which are very popular with young people, especially students.

Published: July 2024

Current article was written by a team of authors from the Faculty of Sociology of Lomonosov Moscow State University in preparation for the 270th anniversary of Moscow University. The article is based on processed and analyzed data from the sociological study “MSU through the eyes of students of the Faculty of Sociology”, conducted by employees of the Faculty of Sociology in December 2023. A total of 679 students were surveyed as a part of the study. In addition to quantitative study an important element of the survey were students’ essays in which they described their impressions of entering and studying at Moscow State University. The purpose of the study was to analyze students’ criteria for choosing a university, to better understand their attitudes towards various aspects of the educational process itself and employment prospects, to create a holistic picture of students’ attitudes towards Moscow University, about its mission in the development of Russia and Russian science, as well as about their own life trajectories. The article analyzed students' opinions regarding the factors that determined their choice of Moscow University, what role did their relatives or friends played in this choice and what extracurricular activities are of a greatest importance to students. Separately, the article discussed issues related to the employment of graduates and expectations from their future profession.
Cross-cultural influences and educational benefits on students from international socio-educational experiences
Authors: Gavrila-Paven Ionela
Published: July 2024

In the perspective of this article, the intercultural influences are viewed through the lens of educational benefits likely to be acquired by students following international socio-educational exchange programs. A model analysis is proposed based on these benefits on students majoring in economic areas, and it has been based on the perspective of influences through education and interaction with different cultures as compared to those of which the individual belongs to, respectively social influence. The research carried out was based on the observations made throughout a five-year period, between 2013 and 2018, regarding the evolution of students participating in the Erasmus programs. The analysis of the international socio-educational experience of people who studied abroad at a foreign university for a certain period of time was the starting point to design a research methodology so that the proposed topic could be investigated by collecting, structuring and analysing qualitative data, considering the fact that qualitative data will allow the discovery of associations of features, respectively of the benefits of personal experiences, which can only be analysed and perceived through the lens of points of view of those who experienced them. The qualitative research included the analysis of students in economics majors participating in the Erasmus program during the academic year 2018–2019 at a small university. The interview technique was used and the processing and interpretation of the data was carried out using software specific to qualitative research. The analysis carried out focused on the identification of complex connections underlying in the answers received from the respondents, answers that allowed the outlining of conceptual maps related to the research objectives. The purpose of the analysis was to underline the intercultural influences as perceived throughout four processes: individual internalization, socialization, individualization and humanization. These influences are revealed by the outcome of the research, that is the five conceptual maps that have resulted. These conceptual maps represent a starting point for future similar researches.
Culturable fungi in Arctic cryoconite holes: A case study from Hansbreen, Spitsbergen

Published: July 2024

Extreme cold environments like glaciers, present substantial obstacles to the survival of organisms. Cryoconite, dark sediment covering glacier, provide unique niche for microorganisms. Therefore, we focused on understanding the diversity of fungi in Arctic ecosystems (Hansbreen, Spitsbergen), which is important in the analysis of the structure and of fungi populations. Due to a combination of two incubation temperatures (7°C or 24°C) and two media during isolation (potato dextrose agar, PDA or yeast extract peptone glucose, YPG), and classical/molecular identification approaches, we identified 20 different fungi (17 species and three unassigned species). Most belonged to filamentous fungi within the Ascomycota (19 isolates), with one identified as Basidiomycota-yeast. Regarding growth conditions, both media yielded greater number of fungal cultures at 24°C compared to 7°C. Additionally, PDA was more effective than YPG in isolating fungal cultures. On the other hand, the optimal temperature for achieving the highest CFU (colony–forming unit)/g of sediment was 7°C. The most frequently isolated species was Cladosporium cladosporioides, and to the best of our knowledge, we are the first to detect, the following species in an Arctic environment: Aspergillus jensenii, A. tennesseensis, Peziza varia, and Trichoderma paraviridescens. Additionally, there was a visible increase in the number of fungal propagules but a decrease in their biodiversity towards the upper parts of the glacier. Considering the Arctic amplification there is a need for further research on diversity and function of fungi in glacial ecosystems.
Jose Donoso, The Obscene Bird of Night: Between the End of the World and the End of the Text
Authors: Grigore Rodica
Published: July 2024

Latin American novel of the 20th century represents one of the most important aesthetic accomplishments of the contemporary canon. Within this context, the apocalyptical narrative stands for many writers’ attempt to talk about the end of the world (in the Biblical sense of the term), but also about the revelation each act of writing or reading implies. Together with some highly acclaimed authors, such as Carlos Fuentes, Roberto Arlt or Gabriel Garcia Márquez, the Chilean José Donoso approaches this general theme in his celebrated novel The Obscene Bird of Night (1970), also discussing the significance of any narrative construction.
Some Observations concerning the Communication Competence in Romanian
Authors: Creţu Ioana-Narcisa
Published: July 2024

In the Romanian language, there are differences in the assessment of prepositions based on the linguistic knowledge. For the analyzed structures of the Romanian language, the article uses the competence theory of Coseriu (1980, 1988). In his theory there are three forms of judgment used as criteria to distinguish between the different types of knowledge: the first type refers to the general language competence, the ability of the speaker to speak congruently, the second type refers to the ability to use a single language correctly and the third rated the ability to speak appropriately corresponding to the matter, to the listeners and to the situation. The structures like: pahar de apă / pahar cu apă (water glass/ glass (with) water) are for many linguists - including Coseriu – a very confusing example of language use. Since the reasons for that (and the solutions) have not been so clearly presented in the research as in the case of the regional varieties, the aim of the article is to present more precisely - based on Coseriu’s competence theory - the nature of the deviations in the use of language and the circumstances under which mistakes are accepted.
The symbolism of water in the documentary film from Maramureș
Authors: Bancoş Raluca Iulia
Published: July 2024

Documentary film is an art that has preoccupied the human soul for more than a century now. One of the pioneers of this cinematic genre, Dziga Vertov, was the one who managed to give the viewer a different perspective on the world around him, through the ‘cine-eye’, thus creating a new small universe inside man. Ethnographic documentary film is said to have appeared once with the first documentaries, and now there are more and more filmmakers and anthropologists interested in it. In the landscape of the Romanian documentary, Dumitru Budrală is one of these names, but also Nicoară Mihali, on whom we stopped, who deals with themes of Maramureș anthropology, in a documentary rich in visual poetry, in visual symbols. In this study, we chose to analyze the symbolism of water in his film, for which we chose the qualitative methodology as an appropriate one, more precisely the content analysis of the symbolic meanings of water, after which we found a persistence and a trend of using certain meanings of the symbol of water in the chosen documentaries, from the first documentary of the filmmaker, until now.
Communication Acts
Authors: Narița Ionel
Published: July 2024

A communication act divides a certain population into three classes: destination, excluded and indifferent people. The goal of the source is the message to be received by all addressees and by no excluded ones. Therefore, the efficiency of a communication act is proportionally to the reunion between the addressees who receive the message and the excluded who do not receive it. The source can increase the efficiency degree through the channel and the code used for sending messages. However, there is no way to certainly achieve the maximum efficiency of our communication acts.

АНАЛІЗ АДАПТИВНОГО ПОТЕНЦІАЛУ КАВУНА ЗВИЧАЙНОГО (CIRCULLUS LANATUS (THUNB.) MATSUM. ET NAKAI) ДО РОСТУ В АГРОЕКОЛОГІЧНИХ УМОВАХ ЗАХІДНОГО РЕГІОНУ УКРАЇНИ

The results of the research of a number of Ukrainian and foreign researchers regarding modern climate changes that have occurred in Ukraine, which contribute to the cultivation of melon crops, in particular, common watermelon (Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. et Nakai), in uncharacteristic agroclimatic zones, are analyzed. It is shown that wild watermelon plants have a high level of expression of genes responsible for: root morphogenesis and their enhanced development; rapid response of the respiratory apparatus water deficit; accumulation of citrulline in the leaves, which has a higher activity of absorbing hydroxyl radicals. Such peculiarities of the genotype of the wild type of watermelon made it possible to significantly expand the range of ecological plasticity to the influence of abiotic factors of its modern cultivated varieties and hybrids. This makes it possible to consistently obtain sufficiently high yields of watermelons in changing growing conditions.
The change in the temperature regime, amount and distribution of precipitation by season, which occurred over the last decades in the Western region of Ukraine, as well as the physicochemical characteristics (density of the upper horizon, water permeability, acidity of the aqueous solution, nutrient regime) of gray podzolized soils and typical chernozems contribute to the cultivation of watermelon ordinary It was found that in agro-climatic zones atypical for this crop, the adaptive potential and yield of its plants can be significantly increased by using a number of agrotechnological techniques. Using the method of grafting watermelon seedlings onto bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria Stanld) allows to increase the yield of watermelon fruits and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Optimizing the light regime for growing watermelon seedlings, which involves additional lighting for 10 days with mixed LEDs with a light intensity of 100 μmol•m -2 •s, significantly improves its quality. Ensuring the optimal regime of irrigation of plants at a specific phenophase of their development allows for a purposeful influence on the growth of aerial parts of plants and their yield. Colonization of plants with arbuscular mycorrhiza increases the expression of genes responsible for the processes of photosynthesis and antioxidant response, which significantly increases the resistance of individuals to drought stress.
