Authors: Unah M. O. , Ali S. M. , Ibrahim S. K.
Published: May 2024

Kano metropolis has over the years witnessed constant redevelopment of green corridor and reserve urban spaces within residential spaces and along major route which spines into commercial and public buildings. This is due to the pressure of urban expansion of the built-up environment. However, these changes do not take into considerations the social, physical and economic factors as such; the redevelopment has altered the built-up areas affecting the relationship between man and his built environment. The study is aimed at restoration of Kano Metropolitan Built Environment’s Vegetative Enclaves as they generate urban patterns through the use of green spaces to induce proper urban growth. Data were collected from the six area councils that make up Kano metropolis and analyzed using seventeen (17) identified attributes on effect of vegetation on the built environment. Descriptive statistics such as Simple distribution frequency (SDF) and Mean weighted score (MWS) were used to analyze the data presented, while inferential statistics employed was relative satisfaction index which was used to rank the environmental scores. Findings showed that the urban open space features significantly affect the level of residents’ satisfaction. The RSI scores for the relatively impact of vegetation on Kano metropolis are on the significance rating (RSI: 0.70 – 0.74 to 0.60- 0.69 corresponding to “Low Impact” and “Less Impact” respectively for most of the attributes, while fewer attributes such as “improved urban environment, improved lively and enhance city image” are areas of significance “high impact” rating, with RSI (0.75 and above). The study recommends the implementation and adherence to strong urban growth management law within the Kano metropolis, as a measure for sustaining the degraded environment and impacts of rapid urban growth in Kano metropolis
Cronyism and Favoritism in appointing faculty in Higher Education System: A Critical Review
Authors: Dhiman Dr. Bharat
Published: May 2024

Aristotle stated that all communities aimed at “the good” thing and
take “the best” as a goal (Aristotle, 1983). Favoritism
occurs when a civil servant helps his/her relatives illegally and
unjustly, backs them (Özsemerci, 2002), or treats anyone or any
group of people better than others regardless of their high professional
performance. Favoritism, a reality in many countries, shows
underdevelopment in democracy and is a major reason for lack of
productivity (Kim, 2004). Cronyism and favoritism are hidden
forms of corruption, which lead directly to the conflict of interest and
create corruption risks in the exercise of official powers.

Cronyism and favoritism in appointing faculty in the higher education
system are unethical practices that can have detrimental effects on the
quality and integrity of education. Such practices involve showing
favoritism towards individuals based on personal connections, rather
than their academic qualifications and achievements, practical skills,
and merit. Cronyism and favoritism can result in the appointment of
underqualified or incompetent faculty members, which can negatively
impact the learning experience of students and the overall reputation of
the educational institution and the society.

The consequences of cronyism and favoritism in appointing faculty in the
higher education system can be significant. It can result in a decline
in the quality of education, as underqualified or incompetent faculty
members may not possess the necessary skills, knowledge, or expertise to
effectively teach and mentor students. It can also lead to unfair
competition among faculty members, as those who are appointed based on
merit may feel low self-esteem, lack of confidence, demoralized and
discouraged, while those appointed through cronyism may lack motivation
to perform their duties effectively.

To combat cronyism and favoritism in appointing faculty in the higher
education system, it is important to establish merit-based hiring
processes and transparency. This can include creating clear job
descriptions and qualifications for faculty positions, advertising
vacancies widely through proper channel, conducting fair and unbiased
evaluations of candidates based on their qualifications, skills,
experience and expertise, and involving multiple stakeholders in the
hiring process to ensure checks and balances.

It is also crucial to promote a culture of integrity and ethical
behavior in educational institutions, where appointments are made based
on merit and the best interests of students and the institution as a
whole. This review paper highlights the crucial factors of Cronyism and
Favoritism in appointing faculty in Higher Education System.
Optimizing Healthcare Expenditure for Spinal Cord Stimulation in Italy: The Value of Battery Longevity Improvement and a Direct-to-Implant Approach
Authors: Tito Federica , Sindaco Gianfranco , Eggington Simon , Tacconi Elisa , Borghetti Francesca , Corbo Mara , Pari Gilberto
Published: May 2024

Background: Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a treatment for chronic intractable pain powered by an implantable pulse generator that may be rechargeable or not rechargeable (NR). It is performed in 2 stages (a trialing phase followed by permanent device implantation) and necessitates 2 hospitalizations, which may increase infection risk. Objective: This analysis explores the cost impact of improvements in battery longevity and the adoption of 1-step (direct-to-implant [DTI]) SCS implantation. Methods: Since 2019, 3 leading NR-SCS devices have been launched: Device A (2019), Device B (2020), and Device C (2021). The battery longevity of the newest Device C was estimated at comparable stimulation settings for Devices A and B. A Markov model simulated individual patient pathways across 2 scenarios: Device A vs Device C and Device B vs Device C (both with the DTI approach and 2-step approach). Costs considered were the initial device implantation procedure, device replacements, and serious adverse event (SAE) management. Italian diagnosis-related group (DRG) tariffs were applied for costs, and a 15-year time horizon was used. Results: Over 15 years, using a DTI approach, the undiscounted total costs for Device A vs Device C were €26 860 and €22 633, respectively, and €25 111 and €22 399 for Device B vs Device C, respectively. Compared with Devices A and B, Device C offered savings of €4227 and €2712, respectively; similar savings were predicted with a 2-step implant approach. Discussion: The battery longevity of NR-SCS devices directly impacts long-term costs to a payer. The longer the device lasts, the lower mean total cumulative costs the patient will have, especially with regard to device replacement costs. With novel devices and specific programming settings, the lifetime cost per patient to a payer can be decreased without compromising the patient’s safety and positive clinical outcome. Conclusions: Extended SCS battery longevity can translate into tangible cost savings for payers. The DTI approach for SCS supports National Healthcare System cost efficiencies and offers the additional benefits of optimizing operating room time while having only one recovery period for the patient.
Learning Opportunities and Challenges in Online Classes during COVID-19: A Study in Dhaka City
Authors: Rafi Al Mahmud
Published: May 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic forced several Bangladeshi private universities to move from in-person to online classes. This paradigm shift has facilitated a unique window of opportunities to harness the untapped potentials of e-learning practices in Bangladesh. However, it has posed a myriad of coping challenges for Bangladeshi students. This exploratory research was conducted to identify the seized learning opportunities along with the critical challenges experienced by the students while learning from online classes at a private university of Bangladesh. This research adopted a mixed methodology of combining both qualitative and quantitative approach for holistic insights. Quantitative data was collected through an online questionnaire survey on a representative and diverse sample size of 745 participants from ten different departments. Semi-structured in-depth interviews consisting of closed and open-ended questions were conducted on 20 respondents for in-depth findings. Primary findings demonstrate the underutilized potential of online classes such as adaptive personal learning, peer learning, gasification, collaborative problem solving, synchronized and synchronized communications etc. The primary challenges include inadequate infrastructural arrangements, lack of uniform and coherent guidelines, non-existence of incentives, limited access to devices, interrupted internet connectivity, poor speed of internet, high data price, limited or no prior orientation to online learning tools and techniques, tedious online class schedule, increased summative and formative tests, fatigue from overusing virtual platforms and physiological issues such as eye-strain, back pain, headache, dizziness from prolonged online classes, absence of face-to-face socialization etc. Based on these findings, this study recommends a few pragmatic strategies to harness the untapped opportunities of online learning and further ensure the viability and sustainability of online education in Bangladesh.
CITY ELECTIONS INSTITUTION IN SIBERIA AT THE TURN OF THE XIX–XX CENTURIES (BASED ON MATERIALS OF PERIODICAL PRESS)
Authors: Sorokin Alexander
Published: May 2024

The paper, for the first time, uses materials from the private periodical press of Siberia to examine the public perception of urban election campaigns in Siberian cities at the turn of the 19th–20th centuries. Siberian periodicals are used as sources of the database: “Eastern Review”, “Yenisei”, “Siberian Bulletin of Politics, Literature and Public Life”, “Sibirsky Leaflet”. The characteristics given by Siberian periodicals of changes in the city electoral system according to the City Regulations of 1892 are highlighted, which mainly include: criticism of the class nature of the composition of voters; elimination of differentiated property qualifications; approval of the provision of voting opportunities by precinct; approval of restrictions from among the voters of small traders and other categories of citizens. The features of the electoral process are shown, including electoral technologies and violations during elections (mainly fraud with election balls during voting, the use of symbols during voting, voting by absent persons). The characteristics of voters' attitude to the exercise of their voting rights are given and the problem of absenteeism is revealed. It is noted that typical instruments for refusing to exercise the right to vote were refusal to pay arrears, as well as a deliberate understatement of the value of owned real estate. Data on the coverage of city heads elections in Siberian periodicals are presented. The content of the positions of the leading newspapers of Siberia in relation to the composition of city dumas according to the class affiliation of their members and possible reforms in the field of city electoral law (primarily, expanding the number of voters by granting rights to tenants) is characterized.
URBAN COMMUNITIES IN THE 1920s (ON THE EXAMPLE OF SLOBODAS AND SUBURBS OF KRASNOYARSK, YENISEI PROVINCE)
Authors: Bershadskaia Svetlana
Published: May 2024

The paper attempts to reconstruct certain aspects of the daily life of residents of urban communities - residents of slobodas and suburbs of Krasnoyarsk in the 1920s – as an insufficiently studied phenomenon of local history. The relevance of the topic is determined by the possibility of identifying the social consequences of compact living of groups with similar sociocultural and status characteristics. In the context of intensified migration processes in modern urban landscapes, places of autonomous residence of such groups are often formed, creating an increased riskiness, which actualizes the need to address the topic, including in the context of historical experience. In the paper, the main research perspective is focused on the analysis of archival sources identified by the author - minutes of meetings of local history circles organized at the State Museum of the Prienisei Region and the Pedagogical Museum of Krasnoyarsk - and the representation of inhabitants of slobodas and suburbs in regional media of the 1920s. Based on a study of the characteristics of the sociocultural appearance of the residents of these territories, interaction with other actors in the urban space, reconstruction of the conditions of everyday life and ways of spending free time, the process of compiling a social characteristic is initiated, the reasons for giving the inhabitants of slobodas and suburbs of Krasnoyarsk similar status characteristics and possible reasons for socio-spatial segregation in the discourse of local society are identified. The results of the study makes it possible to conclude that in the local conditions of a provincial Siberian city in the 1920s the peculiarities of everyday life and work, and the leisure preferences of residents of slobodas and suburbs became one of the reasons for the appearance of “invisible borders” within the urban space. Prospects for further research are related to the possibility of drawing up a holistic picture of the daily life of urban residents of provincial territories in the first years after the restoration of Soviet power and identifying the reasons.
LIFE OF A FAR EASTERN VILLAGE IN 1970-1991 IN THE SOVIET AND RUSSIAN RESEARCHERS PUBLICATIONS
Authors: Grinko Andrey
Published: May 2024

The purpose of the study is to analyze historical events related to the development of the Far Eastern rural areas in 1970–1991, and the objectives are to identify the stages, patterns and features of the process of scientific study of the rural reality of the Far Eastern Region. In the course of working on the paper, both general scientific and historical methods were used. Research was based on fundamental scientific principles, such as critical interpretation of sources, depoliticization, and historicism. The author analyzes publications related to life, daily life, the financial situation of the rural population, social policy, demographic and migration processes. It is noted that for a long time the evolution of the rural society of the Far East during the periods of “developed” (or “late”) socialism and perestroika was not the focus of attention of researchers who relied on the formational approach that was dominant until the early 1990s. Scientists idealized the state of affairs in rural areas, presenting existing problems and difficulties as temporary phenomena that could be overcome in the foreseeable future. In the post-Soviet period, the study of the life of villagers continued from new methodological positions, in particular, based on the theory of modernization. A surge of interest in regional rural reality occurred at the beginning of the 21st century. Historians have paid attention to issues related to food, the state of housing and household infrastructure, agricultural resettlement, and the subjective perception of life by the villagers themselves. To date, a complex of scientific research on the history of the Far Eastern village has been formed, including papers, monographs and dissertations, but a number of issues remain on the periphery of research interest and require further study.

Published: May 2024

Aim: The COVID-19 pandemic caused many unfavorable changes in nurses’ daily work, which affected their health and well-being. The objective of the study was to assess the impact of working under COVID-19 conditions on the psychophysical condition of nurses.
Materials and Methods: The study included a group of 100 nurses from the Łodź Voivodeship working under COVID-19 conditions. A survey questionnaire consisting of questions on health status, the occurrence and severity of symptoms resulting from work in covid conditions was used.
Results: Statistically significant (p<0.001) increases in physical ailments were found in nurses after a change in working conditions. The largest effect was observed for dyspnoea, headache and lumbar pain. The severity of physical ailments was mainly affected by the age of the respondents and the presence of chronic diseases. There was also a statistically significant (p<0.001) deterioration in the mental state of the respondents, primarily in terms of feelings of mental fatigue, mood decrease and feelings of fear for the health of relatives. An increase in fear for one’s own health was also observed, particularly in nurses with older age, higher BMI, longer work experience and chronic diseases.
Conclusions: The change of working conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the psychophysical health of nurses. The respondents showed an increase of the symptoms of chronic diseases, headaches and back pain. Working in difficult conditions and chronic stress resulted in a depressed mood and fear for one’s own life and that of relatives. Thermal treatment may be recommended to improve the psychophysical condition of nurses.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease etiologically related to stress. Mongolian mind-body interactive psychotherapy (MMIP) is a group psychotherapy that integrates traditional Mongolian medicine theory with modern psychology. Exosomes are nanovesicles that carry biomolecules such as proteins, and the lipid bilayer protects cargo from degeneration. The present study was conducted to discern the effects of MMIP on psoriasis from a biomolecular perspective, particularly by performing an exosome proteomic analysis. Plasma exosomes were extracted from 15 samples, derived from psoriasis patients (n = 5, before and after MMIP) and healthy controls (HCs; n = 5). All patients had spent 60 days engaging with MMIP. Proteomic analysis was conducted using high-throughput mass spectrometry, and the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were analyzed. Further, validation test was done in serum samples of psoriasis (n = 56) and HC (n = 29). After the MMIP, the psoriasis area and severity index improved by 75%. Compared to HCs, psoriasis patients demonstrated alterations in 41 DEPs, with significant involvement of ribosome and apelin/APJ pathway. The recovery of psoriasis following the therapy was found to be associated with significant alterations in 16 DEPs, involving pathways of Fc gamma-mediated receptor phagocytosis, tight junction, and vascular smooth muscle contraction. Notably, one of the immunoglobulins that were reduced in psoriasis was significantly elevated after the MMIP. Validation results showed that the levels of serum elafin were higher in psoriasis than in HC but significantly decreased after MMIP. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that MMIP has a significant influence on the profiles of immunoglobulins and inflammatory molecules, as well as several pathways participating in the psoriasis recovery, providing insights into the pathophysiology of psoriasis and possible potential therapeutic targets of the disease.
W poszukiwaniu właściwego czasu w psychoanalizie i w fotografii
Authors: Puk Bartosz
Published: May 2024

Praca psychoanalityka jest podobna do pracy fotografa. Musimy brać pod uwagę pewien moment w sesji psychoanalitycznej lub fotograficznej, w którym możemy ująć doświadczenie myśleniem naszego aparatu umysłowego lub matrycą naszego aparatu fotograficznego. Opisuję tu momenty w sesji psychoanalizy, w których jednak trudno coś ująć i uchwycić, ponieważ jest zbyt dużo ruchu. Aparat umysłowy nie może wtedy przyjąć czegoś i rozwinąć myślenia. Zdarzają się też momenty statyczne, nudne i wymagające zmiany scenografii. Obydwa te stany – zarówno sytuacje, w których czas „leci” bardzo szybko, jak i te, w których czas się „wlecze” – są bardzo trudne do ujęcia i do pomyślenia. Ale to,
co istotne, to dynamika zmian w tych dwóch stanach. Analogicznie, w sesjach fotografii ulicznej bądź fotografii wojennej należy zatrzymać się i spróbować myśleć pod naporem impulsywności życia w tych warunkach. Natomiast w sesji fotografii portretowej trzeba wywołać pewien rodzaj ekspresji w podmiocie, który będzie najbliżej odpowiadał stanowi emocjonalnemu tej osoby.

Situbondo Sekai Community gathers individuals who have a sense of interest in Japanese culture and anime, or wibu for short. Interests and hobbies are one of the main reasons this community was formed. A very foreign culture is increasingly turning into a reality that eventually blends into society. Similarly, the Situbondo Sekai community takes cultural values from Japan, which they then use as the main foundation in building solidarity. Basically, a wibu's identity is based on his or her actions that are directly accepted by the outside community and subjective assessments from other individuals. So that in the end it will form a new knowledge that has been objectivized and agreed upon. Wibu are just like any other human being, what makes their label different from others is the community they choose. The community can represent their role in the context of interactions between fellow individuals.

Normalus pažintinių funkcijų silpnėjimas, arba kognityvinis senėjimas, reiškia natūralų, laipsnišką kognityvinių gebėjimų nuosmukį žmogui senstant, kai smegenys patiria daug molekulinių, biocheminių, struktūrinių ir funkcinių pokyčių. Atliekama daug tyrimų, siekiant suprasti sveiko ir patologinio senėjimo procesus, nustatyti labiausiai proceso paveikiamas smegenų sritis. Netgi žmonės, kuriems nėra demencijos, o pažinimo funkcijos nesutrikusios, sendami gali patirti subtilių pažinimo pokyčių. Svarbu suprasti amžinius pažinimo pokyčius, nes jie turi įtakos vyresnio amžiaus žmonių kasdieniam gyvenimui, bet svarbiausia, gali padėti atskirti normalią būseną nuo ligos. Pokyčiai ne visada akivaizdūs, labiausiai paveikiamas mąstymo greitis, dėmesys, atminties, kalbos, vizualinių, erdvinių, vykdomųjų funkcijų gebėjimai [1]. 30 metų amžiuje kognityviniai gebėjimai pasiekia aukščiausią tašką, vėliau palaipsniui mažėja – prasideda normalus kognityvinis senėjimas [2]. Skirtingai nuo neurodegeneracinių ligų, tokių kaip Alzheimerio liga, normalus kognityvinis senėjimas nereiškia pablogėjusios kasdienės veiklos, nepriklausomybės praradimo – tai natūrali senėjimo proceso dalis [2].

Dengue is a viral infection that has become a serious problem in recent years. It is a major cause of mortality and morbidity. The present study is a prospective, hospital-based, observational study done from 2015 to October 2022. The objective of our study was to consider whether dengue infection can be suspected based on hematological and biochemical findings. The study included 100 patients positive for dengue infection. Complete haemograms, transaminases for liver injury, blood urea, and serum creatinine levels for renal assessment were performed for these patients. The most common hematological findings were thrombocytopenia, leucopenia, an increase in the mixed cell fraction of the leucocytes, and the presence of reactive lymphocytes. Biochemical parameters like aminotransferases, blood urea, and serum creatinine levels were significantly raised. Hence, a platelet count of <100,000 cells/μl, leucopenia of < 4000 cells/μl, and aspartate aminotransferase levels of >82.2 U/L can be considered predictors of dengue infection
Confucian principles, Reason and Conscience: Three “Imitating the Heaven” Judicial Paths of Ancient Confucian Judge
Authors: Fei Qiao
Published: May 2024

When Confucian officials hearing case in ancient China, they should not only consider the written provisions of the law, but also consider the higher norms outside the law, the Confucian principles, Reason and Conscience are the main manifestations of these norms. The Confucian classics are the words of the sages, which are considered the truth of the Heven. Judicial decision according to the “Confucian Principles” means trying cases according to the way of heaven. “Reason” is the fusion of “human feelings” and “heavenly principles”, and “human feelings” are the embodiment of “heavenly principles” in social life. The Original Heart” or Conscience is the manifestation of the “heavenly principle” in the hearts of the people, and the judge hears the lawsuit according to the “Original Heart”, which is to follow the “heavenly principle” to judge the cases. All these are the “Imitating the Heaven” ways in judicial field, which has made up for the shortcomings of the written law to a considerable extent. This has also corrected the possible injustice of the written law, reflecting the Confucian officials’ pursuit of “natural law” and judicial “justice”.
“The Unity of Knowledge and Action” and “Act in accordance with Faith”—— A Comparative Study Between Wang Yangming’s and Martin Luther’s thoughts about the Practice of Human Self-transformation
Authors: Yang Meng
Published: May 2024

This article explores the similarities and differences between Wang Yangming’s teaching of “the unity of knowledge and action” and Martin Luther’s doctrine of “act in accordance with faith.” As a form of realizing self-transcendence practice, both of these propositions reflect the inherent tension between internal will (“knowledge” and “faith”) and external behavior. In their pursuit of moral transcendence and the fundamental transformation of subjective life, both thinkers essentially challenge the notion of segregating the “inner” and “outer,” attempting to break down the barriers between the internal and external, resulting in a conceptual generalization of the two. However, there are notable differences in their specific theoretical expressions. Namely, they have different understandings of the priority of the “inner” and the “outer.” For Yangming, “knowledge” and “action” are fundamentally the same (moral) effort, while Luther insists on the primacy of “faith,”emphasizing that good deeds are merely the result of faith.
Dialogues on the Theory of Reward for the Good and Retribution for the Evil during Late Ming and Early Qing Dynasties
Authors: Qinghe Xiao
Published: May 2024

The theory of reward for the good and retribution for the evil (善恶报应) was one of the key issues in the dialogue between Catholicism and indigenous religions in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Under the monotheistic framework, Catholicism advocates supernatural God for rewarding good and punishing evil, thus it had a more logical and rigorous theological arguments. It had exchanges and dialogues with Chinese native religions on the standards of good and evil, who has the rights to reward and punish, and the results of reward and retribution and so on. This article firstly analyzes the Confucian theory of stimulus-response between the heaven and human beings (天人感应). It secondly illustrates the view of the theories of reward for the good and retribution for the evil in Buddhism and Taoism. Then it discusses the Catholic views on rewarding good and punishing evil during late Ming and early Qing, and it also reviews the responses of the native religions in China to Catholic view of rewarding good and punishing evil. Finally, it summarizes the sameness and differences of the theories of reward for the good and retribution for the evil between Catholicism and Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. As to the intentional to do goods, there were some commonalities between Catholicism and Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in the movement of promoting good deeds during late Ming and early Qing. However, there were distinct in the perspective of the standards of good and evil, the subjects of retribution and the roles of individuals in retribution, which caused the conflicts between Catholicism and its opponents in China. The introduction of Catholic theory of reward for the good and retribution for the evil undoubtedly further enriched Chinese religious thoughts since the late Ming dynasty.
Leadership Styles, Emotional Intelligence and Personality Traits of Muslim Women Academic Heads of the Mindanao State University and their Correlation with Organizational Performance

Published: May 2024

The study identified the leadership style, emotional intelligence and personality traits of the Muslim women deans of the Mindanao State University, the biggest state University in Southern Mindanao, and their correlation with organizational performance. The respondents of the study were the faculty members of the four colleges of the University under the leadership of a Muslim woman dean. The study disclosed that the women deans practiced more of transformational than the transactional leadership style. Transformational leadership was the preferred and widely practiced style among these deans, according to nearly all the faculty respondents. In terms of organizational performance, the faculty respondents rated their Muslim women deans as highly effective. Using McKinsey's 7S model, the deans were rated highest in skills, followed by shared values, style, strategy, system, and staff, in descending order. This indicates that the deans excel in various aspects of organizational management. The study also established correlations between these elements based on the data obtained through the use of four standardized questionnaires such as the Bass multi-factor leadership instrument and Mckinsey’s 7S model. Moreover, the study revealed that there is a moderate positive correlation between leadership style and organizational performance, another moderate positive correlation between personality traits and organizational performance, but a low positive correlation between emotional intelligence and organizational performance. This suggests that leadership style and personality traits play a more significant role in influencing organizational performance than emotional intelligence. In conclusion, it can be hypothetically argued that the Muslim women deans under study were more inclined to embrace transformational leadership, emphasizing emotional intelligence and displaying favourable personality traits.
Nonspecific therapy for Eisenmenger syndrome
Authors: Shmalts A. A. , Chernogrivov I. E.
Published: May 2024

Eisenmenger syndrome (ES) is systemic pulmonary hypertension with venoarterial or bidirectional shunting of blood between the ventricles, atria or great arteries due to the progression of pulmonary vascular disease in the natural course of “simple” and “complex” congenital heart defects.Patients with ES require constant attention from a multidisciplinary team of specialists. One of the main tasks is not to destabilize the fragile pathological physiology, which relies on the balance of pulmonary and peripheral vascular resistance. Surgical interventions with anesthesia, if they cannot be avoided, should be performed in specialized centers. Pregnancy is contraindicated in patients with ES. Clinical symptoms of blood hyperviscosity in ES are rare.The anachronistic practice of venesections, which leads to a decrease in the oxygen transport function of the blood, iron deficiency and an increased risk of cerebrovascular complications, should be avoided. Oral and intravenous replenishment of iron deficiency improves exercise tolerance and quality of life. Routine administration of anticoagulants for ES is not indicated. In most cases, endovascular embolization of pathological collateral arteries can eliminate hemoptysis. The use of venous access requires careful prevention of embolism. Therapeutic tactics for ES are discussed in detail in this review

Aim. To evaluate and compare the accuracy of determining volemic status by remote dielectric sensing (ReDS) with computed tomography (CT) in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).

Materials and methods. In 33 patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) hospitalized in the hospital due to acute decompensation of heart failure, twice during hospitalization (on the day of admission and on the day of discharge from the hospital) the determination of the volemic status was performed using ReDS, chest computed tomography (CCT) and chest X-ray. ReDS measurement was compared with CT data using software that allows the use of semi-automated tools to determine mean lung tissue density (MLD). MLD results from Hounsfield units [HU] were converted to fluid levels (HU %), which allowed comparison with ReDS values. In addition, to assess the effect of physical activity on the dynamics of pulmonary congestion, a 6-minute walk test (6MWT) were performed with subsequent determination of the volemic status by the ReDS method.

Results. A medium correlation was found between CCT and ReDS data (r = +6.0, p = 0.0002). In the dynamics statistically significant decrease of hypervolemia according to CCT data, which was reflected in the decrease of ReDS index. The fluid content in lungs according to ReDS on average at admission amounted to 37.1 ± 5.3%, at discharge 34.2 ± 4.1% (p = 0.0155). MLD according to CCT at admission was 26.5 ± 6.4 at discharge 22.7 ± 5.6 (P<0.0001). At the same time positive dynamics of NT-proBNP concentration was determined, which decreased by 45.6% (p = 0.0069). Differences in ReDS before and after physical activity 6MWT was revealed – 35.2 ± 4.2% in comparison with the initial index 34.2 ± 4.1% (p = 0.0001). A strong correlation was found between the ReDS score before and after 6MWT at discharge (r = +0.7, p = 0.0001)
