Retro-fitment of an oxygen system in a transport aircraft of Indian Air Force: Decompression chamber trials to assess system functionality
Authors: Raju A. V. K. , Sarkar Ranjan , Joshi Vijay V. , Tripathy N. K.
Published: October 2022

The aeromedical concerns of sudden onset hypoxia and rapid decompression are an omnipresent threat to flight safety when flying over 10,000 ft. The concept of Time of Useful Consciousness (TUC) provides the aircrew a window to correct his predicament. The issues of hypoxia are mitigated in transport aircraft with cabin pressurization. However, the requirement of an oxygen system in these aircraft is considered essential in an emergency in case of cabin failure of cabin pressurization or rapid decompression, despite adequate TUC, as it provides immediate succor from anxiety, and subtle performance decrements, especially in VIP carriage or casevac roles. With this background, a requirement for retro-fitment of a functional oxygen system of a small transport ac of Indo-German origin into a pressurized medium-lift cargo aircraft of British Origin was envisaged. Toward this, ground-based simulator trials were conducted on the oxygen system to assess its functionality before undertaking flight trials in the aircraft. The assessment consisted of the ground trial of the test oxygen system in the Explosive Decompression Chamber with three experiment protocols. The experimentation involved exposure to a simulated altitude of 15,000 ft for 25 min and rapid decompression from 7000 to 15,000 ft. Physiological parameters, endurance, and flow of oxygen in the system were evaluated. The trial results indicated that the physiological parameters (heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation [SpO2], and end-tidal carbon dioxide [EtCO2]) were within normal limits during the entire duration of exposure to 15,000 ft and decompression from 7000 ft to 15,000 ft. In addition, the physiological parameters were also within normal limits during exposure to 1 min of simulated hyperventilation. Neither any subjective or objective symptoms of hypoxia were observed nor any appreciation of increased breathing resistance reported by the subjects. The endurance of the system in terms of delivering continuous oxygen flow at 15,000 ft was assessed to be 73 min. From the trials, it was inferred that the oxygen system in a single crew configuration could be used satisfactorily up to the operational ceiling altitude specified for the subject aircraft.
The pharmaceutical industry is dangerous to health. Further proof with COVID-19
Authors: Deruelle Fabien
Published: October 2022

Background:

The COVID-19 period highlights a huge problem that has been developing for decades, the control of science by industry. In the 1950s, the tobacco industry set the example, which the pharmaceutical industry followed. Since then, the latter has been regularly condemned for illegal marketing, misrepresentation of experimental results, dissimulation of information about the dangers of drugs, and considered as criminal. Therefore, this study was conducted to show that knowledge is powerfully manipulated by harmful corporations, whose goals are: 1/financial; 2/to suppress our ability to make choices to acquire global control of public health.

Methods:

Pharmaceutical industry techniques for manipulating science and COVID-19 reporting were reviewed. Several sources of official documents were used: PubMed; National Institutes of Health resources; pharmaceutical companies; policy documents; national newspapers and news agencies; and books by prominent professionals (scientific and legal). A few studies have not been published in peer-reviewed journals; however, they have been conducted by reputable scientists in their respective fields.

Results:

Since the beginning of COVID-19, we can list the following methods of information manipulation which have been used: falsified clinical trials and inaccessible data; fake or conflict-of-interest studies; concealment of vaccines’ short-term side effects and total lack of knowledge of the long-term effects of COVID-19 vaccination; doubtful composition of vaccines; inadequate testing methods; governments and international organizations under conflicts of interest; bribed physicians; the denigration of renowned scientists; the banning of all alternative effective treatments; unscientific and liberticidal social methods; government use of behavior modification and social engineering techniques to impose confinements, masks, and vaccine acceptance; scientific censorship by the media.

Conclusion:

By supporting and selecting only the one side of science information while suppressing alternative viewpoints, and with obvious conflicts of interest revealed by this study, governments and the media constantly disinform the public. Consequently, the unscientifically validated vaccination laws, originating from industry-controlled medical science, led to the adoption of social measures for the supposed protection of the public but which became serious threats to the health and freedoms of the population.

Published: October 2022

Background:

Whipple disease (WD) is an infection caused by Tropheryma whipplei, which might present in three different forms: classical, localized, and isolated in the central nervous system (CNS).

Methods:

We report the result of a systematic review of the literature on WD unusually presenting with exclusively neurological symptoms, including two previously unpublished cases. A description of two cases with isolated CNS WD was performed, as well as a literature search in Cochrane, Scielo, and PubMed.

Results:

Two male adult patients presented with exclusively neurological symptomatology. Both magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed an intracranial mass suggestive of brain tumor. The histopathological examination was consistent with WD, with no systemic involvement. In the review of the literature, 35 cases of isolated CNS WD were retrieved. The median age at diagnosis was 43.5 (IQR 31.5–51.5). In 13 patients, the MRI showed a brain mass consistent with a brain tumor. The most common finding in the biopsy was the periodic-acid Schiff-stained foamy macrophages. Only five cases presented the pathognomonic sign of oculomasticatory myorhythmia. Thirteen cases had an adverse outcome that resulted in death during follow-up, whereas another 13 improved. The other nine patients remained stable or presented moderate improvement.

Conclusion:

Isolated CNS WD is a rare disease that should be considered among the differential diagnosis of CNS mass lesions. Brain biopsy is necessary to establish the diagnosis. It is stressed in the literature that an extended antibiotic course is required to prevent relapses and to control the disease.

Authors: Nakajima Hideki , Tsuchiya Takuro , Shimizu Shigetoshi , Watanabe Kiyotaka , Kitamura Tetsuya , Suzuki Hidenori
Published: October 2022

Background:

Cardiocerebral infarction (CCI) is a rare entity that refers to the simultaneous occurrence of acute myocardial infarction and acute ischemic stroke. The management of CCI patients remains unclear.

Case Description:

An 86-year-old woman with a medical history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation presented with a sudden onset of consciousness disturbance and right hemiplegia. Computed tomography of the head revealed no intracranial hemorrhage but the left hyperdense middle cerebral artery sign, associated with ST-segment elevation in II, III, and aVF noted on a routine 12-lead electrocardiogram at admission. The patient was immediately brought to the catheterization laboratory and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was performed first, followed by mechanical thrombectomy, resulting in successful revascularization of the both diseases.

Conclusion:

Although the treatment strategy of CCI may depend on the condition of coronary and cerebral ischemia, it may be appropriate to prioritize coronary angiography and PCI if not acute ischemic stroke is critical.

Authors: Sakamoto Kimiya , Uchikado Hisaaki , Hanada Hayatsura , Inoue Ritsuro , Nii Kouhei , Higashi Toshio
Published: October 2022

Background:

Patients with both nonrheumatoid retro-odontoid pseudotumors (ROPTs) and congenital craniocervical junction (CCJ) abnormalities are rare. Here, a 73-year-old female presented with neck pain and myelopathy due to MR-documented ROPT with intramedullary hyperintensity at the CCJ warranting an occipital-cervical fusion.

Case Description:

A 73-year-old female originally developed occipitalgia and became quadriparetic within the subsequent 7 months. The cervical MR showed a ROPT with intramedullary hyperintensity at the CCJ. Further, the CT demonstrated C1 occipitalization and a congenital C2-3 fusion without radiological instability. After she underwent an occipito-C2 fusion, her symptoms improved.

Conclusion:

For patients with C1 occipitalization and a Klippel-Feil syndrome, ROPT may occur due to loading of C1-2 complex. These patients typically favorably respond to occipito-C2 fusion.
About the language difficulties of chinese students, russian language

В процессе обучения иностранных студентов русскому языку неизбежно возникают проблемы культуры. Язык, как часть культуры, оказывает влияние на обе стороны, участвующие в учебном процессе. Также очевидно, что поведенческая составляющая студентов и преподавателей зависит от их культурной принадлежности. Психические процессы, протекающие в нас во время занятий иностранного языка, также разнятся в зависимости от языковой и культурной принадлежности к разным социумам. К китайским учащимся, изучающим русский язык, это относится в полной мере. Языковая система родного языка, несомненно, сильно влияет на восприятие иностранного языка. Так, в отличие от логико-знакового мышления носителей русского языка, китайцы, по словам исследователей, обладают так называемым «синтетическим мышлением», что естественным образом вызывает некоторые трудности в овладении ими русского языка. В данном ключе стоит отметить ценность этноориентированных методик преподавания русского языка как иностранного.

In the process of teaching Russian to foreign students, cultural problems inevitably arise. Language, as part of culture, influences both sides involved in the learning process. It is also obvious that the behavioral component of students and teachers depends on their cultural affiliation. The mental processes that take place in us during foreign language classes also vary depending on the linguistic and cultural affiliation to different societies. This applies to Chinese students studying Russian in full. The language system of the native language undoubtedly strongly influences the perception of a foreign language. Russian Russian speakers, in contrast to the logical-symbolic thinking of native speakers of the Russian language, the Chinese, according to the researchers, have so-called "synthetic thinking", which naturally causes some difficulties in mastering the Russian language. In this context, it is worth noting the value of ethnically oriented methods of teaching Russian as a foreign language.

Authors: Wan Hao , Wang Xingli , Tan Lei , Filippi Michael , Strasser Peter , Rossmeisl Jan , Bagger Alexander
Published: October 2022

Electrocatalytic conversion is a promising technology for storing renewable electricity in the chemical form. Substantial efforts have been made on the multi-carbon feedstock production,while producing nitrogen-containing chemicals like urea via C-N coupling little is known. Here, we elucidate the possible urea production on metals through co-reduction of nitric oxide (NO) and carbon oxide (CO). Based on adsorption energies calculated by DFT, we find that Cu is able to bind both *NO and *CO while not binding *H. During NO + CO co-reduction, We identify two kinetically and thermodynamically possible C-N couplings via  CO + *N and  CONH + *N, and further hydrogenation leads to urea formation. A 2-D activity heatmap has been constructed for describing nitrogen conversion to urea. This work provides a clear example of using computational simulations to predict selective and active materials for sustainable urea production.
Visible Light-Mediated [2+2]-Cycloadditions for the Formation of Macrocyclic Dimers
Authors: Schindler Corinna , Ng Cody , Kim Scott , Kevlishvili Ilia , Terrones Gianmarco , Wearing Emily , Kulik Heather
Published: October 2022

Macrocyclic, dimeric lactones have known pharmacological activities that make them attractive synthetic targets but are typically synthesized following an iterative approach. Herein, we report a visible light-mediated approach to macrocyclic dimers that allows access to 1- and 2-azetine-containing dimeric lactones. Notably, up to 30-membered macrocycles are formed following this strategy that results in 1-azetine dimers via four consecutive triplet energy transfers, while 2-azetines are formed in a sequence relying on two consecutive triplet energy transfers. Computational investigations provide important insights into the reaction mechanism, suggesting that intermolecular [2+2]-cycloadditions are preferred under non-standard Curtin-Hammett conditions over the corresponding intramolecular reaction.
Highly stable amorphous silica-alumina catalysts for continuous bio-derived mesitylene production under solvent-free conditions
Authors: Reif Phillip , Gupta Navneet Kumar , Rose Marcus
Published: October 2022

Aromatization of alkyl methyl ketones obtained from biorefinery streams is a viable and attractive catalytic pathway to renewable aromatics, precursors for various important monomers and chemicals. To achieve high catalytic activity and stability under continuous conditions, mesoporous amorphous silica-alumina (ASA) catalysts are studied for the acid-catalyzed self-condensation of biomass-derived acetone to mesitylene in solvent-free continuous conditions using a fixed-bed reactor. The catalytic efficiency of ASA catalysts depends on their structure and intrinsic acidity. In comparison to pure alumina, ASA Siralox 30 exhibits a 2.2 times higher catalytic activity for acetone conversion and 3.8 times higher mesitylene yield, demonstrating the importance of Brønsted acid sites (BAS) generated in ASA catalysts. The detailed kinetic studies and catalyst characterization indicate that mesitylene formation is favored over BAS and that the formation rate is enhanced with the relative strength of BAS. We demonstrate here that Siralox 30 (total product selectivity = 66 %, W/F = 12.5 gcat h mol 1) is an adequate and highly active catalyst for the continuous mesitylene synthesis with remarkable long-term operational stability (> 50 hours-on-stream).

Authors: Ratzenboeck Karin , Uher Johanna , Zagar Ema , Pahovnik David , Slugovc Christian
Published: October 2022

One way to obtain recyclable polymeric materials is to include reversible bonds in polymers. Herein, we study the reversibility of the oxa-Michael reaction, explore its scope and limitations in simple model systems and further in linear polymers and polymer networks. Results show that for the retro oxa-Michael reactions of sulfone, acrylate or acrylonitrile based adducts elevated temperatures (> 100 °C) and Brønsted bases (e.g. KOH) are needed. Alcohols in oxa-Michael adducts can easily be exchanged within minutes. Further, oxa-Michael polymers can be depolymerized into small fragments in presence of alcohols and show self-healing characteristics in networks.
Evaluation of the vacuum effect on headspace solid-phase microextraction of volatile organic compounds from aqueous samples using finite element analysis modeling
Authors: Kenessov Bulat , Muratuly Aset
Published: October 2022

Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HSSPME) of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from aqueous samples under vacuum conditions (Vac-HSSPME) allows increasing extraction rates and decreasing detection limits compared to HSSPME under atmospheric pressure. The positive effect of the vacuum on HSSPME of an analyte can be quickly estimated using its Henry’s law constant (HLC). Substantial positive effect of the vacuum can be expected for analytes with HLC lower than 1.6·10-4 atm m3 mol−1 (0.065 at 25 °C). This conclusion was made using a two-layer model of evaporation, which does not consider possible effects of other parameters of HSSPME. This research was aimed at a detailed evaluation of the possible effect of vacuum on the equilibration time and extracted amounts of analytes with various HLC and coating-headspace distribution constants (Kfh) using the computational model recently developed in COMSOL Multiphysics software. It has been proven that HSSPME under vacuum provides faster equilibration of VOCs with all studied Kfh and HLC. Drop in the equilibration time can reach 33.7 times. The largest vacuum impact on the extracted analyte was 3.9-4.0 times at Kfh = 106 and HLC = 10-6-10-3. The substantial (<1.5 times) vacuum impact should not be expected for analytes with Kfh < 105 for 15-min extraction and Kfh < 105.5 for 30-min extraction. For greater Kfh, HLC values should be lower than 0.1. The obtained results and the developed model can be recommended for the evaluation whether HSSPME is reasonable to conduct under vacuum conditions.
Expressing Insult in English Authoritarian Discourse of Children (Gender Perspective)
Authors: Pakharenko Anastasiia
Published: October 2022

The article focuses on verbal and nonverbal features of expressing insult in authoritarian discourse of children with account for the interlocutors’ gender and their fixed placement in each other’s zones of discursive surroundings. Insulting the addressee involves applying verbal and non-verbal cues to humiliate them and hurt their feelings, and is based on the aims of the child-addresser. To provide further validity of the results obtained, the author has selected communicative situations of implementing insult in dyads of children wherein both interlocutors find themselves in the horizontal dimension of interaction and try to construct the power hierarchy. Furthermore, the speakers’ gender has been taken into consideration; therefore, situations of same-sex and opposite-sex sibling and non-sibling communication are investigated. Dyads of sisters insult each other calling for the other’s withdrawal from the shared discursive space through the use of movement predicates and discourse markers of decreasing the importance of the addressee; the mixed groups tend to mirror the verbal and non-verbal repertoire of the authoritarian addresser; brothers implement insult via low register vocabulary to express scorn for cowardice via sarcasm and invective vocabulary. The non-sibling cluster of girls expresses insult to jeopardize the relationship with the addressee by means of pretend condemnation of violating etiquette norms and a careless attitude towards their appearance through the use of various complex argumented syntactic constructions and does not resort to lowering the register; the mixed dyadic pairs typically refer to the addressee’s intellectual skills or age in an offensive manner via pejorative vocatives of olfactory nature and zoonyms; the subgroups of boys implement insult via introducing invective means on the verbal and non-verbal levels.
Criteria for the selection of precedent cultural phenomena for teaching foreign languages
Authors: Hostra Kateryna
Published: October 2022

Proficiency in a foreign language does not mean that the individuals possess a certain lexicon and grammatical minimum as this is not enough for them to become full participants of the intercultural communication. Foreign language learners can become active and full participants of the intercultural dialogue if they retain a developed secondary linguistic personality. The latter’s development is provided for through the acquisition of the precedent cultural phenomena, which comprise national, socio-cultural and historical information and indicate its availability. The article proposes a system of criteria for the selection of precedent cultural phenomena as a teaching material for the foreign language classes. The paper characterizes the precedent cultural phenomena as a means of secondary linguistic personality formation. It has been established that an individual possessing the secondary linguistic personality is a communicatively active subject that is readily engaged in the intercultural communication and is able to produce appropriate verbal behavior in a given situation of the intercultural communication. Precedent cultural phenomena, which are cognitive structures formed in the native speakers’ mental base relying on their socio-cultural and national-historical experience, contribute to the development of the foreign-language speakers’ worldview and the skills of intercultural communication. It was found that the criteria for selecting a precedent cultural phenomenon are the properties that allow it to be included in the content of teaching as a teaching material. The author suggests the system of the said criteria comprising the basic (informative, nominative, pragmatic and applicable) and optional (programme-related, intercultural-related) criteria. It was assumed that the inclusion of precedent cultural phenomena as a teaching material in the content of the foreign language teaching may make it more effective, ensure the actualization of interdisciplinary relations, and contribute to the development of the secondary linguistic personality and students` intercultural competence.

Published: October 2022

The article is devoted to the scientific and theoretical substantiation of the peculiarities in teaching English professionally oriented discussion to students in Higher Educational Establishment. In modern realities, the requirements for training students with a high level of professionally oriented foreign language communicative competence are growing and the method of teaching English professionally oriented discussion in Higher Educational Establishment remains insufficiently developed determining the relevance of the study. The object of research is the process of teaching English professionally oriented discussion to students. The subject is peculiarities of teaching English professionally oriented discussion. Theoretical and empirical methods have been used in the study. Professionally oriented discussion is a form of collective-group interaction, which is based on the argumentation of different points of view in order to solve a certain problem in a professional nature. Organized educational discussion reproduces the conditions of real communication and is one of the effective means of developing unprepared speech. There are three stages in teaching English professionally oriented discussion to students of Higher Educational Establishment: the organizational stage, which involves determining the topic and purpose of the discussion; the discussion itself: due to the problem students justify their point of view by argumentation; the final stage, which involves analysis, comparison of the purpose with the results and evaluation of results. Skills of the effective discussion are formed by a system of reproductive non-communicative, receptive communicative, receptive-reproductive, conditional-communicative and productive communicative exercises at each stage of conducting professionally oriented discussion in English. The prospect of further research is practical development of the system of exercises and selection of techniques and technologies for each stage in order to conduct English professionally oriented discussion effectively in Higher Educational Establishment.
The use of the media in the framework of the cognitive-communicative approach to foreign languages learning
Authors: Yazlovytska Olena
Published: October 2022

The article is devoted to the study of the elements of students’ communicative competence formation, taking into account the cognitive aspect of teaching foreign languages. This approach gives the opportunity to learn rationally lexical and grammatical material, as well as provides the enrichment of general worldview knowledge, which is inherent to the native speakers. The aim of the study is to analyze the effectiveness of using authentic auxiliary material in foreign language learning in order to optimize the educational process. Taking into account the functions presented by the media, working with journalistic
and audiovisual materials is one of the leading parts within the framework of the cognitive-communicative approach to foreign language learning. The article provides the detailed analysis of the stages of working with the media material and the explanation of the productivity of their use during foreign language classes. The study analyzes three stages of working with the media on the example of a textual material, namely the pre-text, text and post-text stages, which provide information study, discussion and formation of a certain point of view on the communicative issue. This scheme of work can be used in the analysis of textual as well as audiovisual information that helps to increase the motivation of students and their interest concerning the proposed topic.
According to the study results, each of the working stages improves the integrated knowledge of a foreign language. Working with the media while studying foreign languages provides the formation of a cognitive and communicative worldview while learning a number of lexical and grammatical elements as well as a range of skills how to apply them in certain communicative situations.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important metabolite and biological signal gas, and the adsorption of the CO2 is not only a challenge but also an important research field of bio-inorganic chemistry and coordination chemistry. A coordination polymer (CP) [Cd(tib)(1,4-NDC)]·3H2O (CdTN) has been prepared by the solvothermal reactions of 1,3,5-tris(1-imidazolyl) benzene (tib) and 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid (1,4-H2NDC) with Cd2+. The result of X-ray single-crystal analysis shows that CdTN is a two-fold interpenetrating 3D framework with {42·65·83}{42·6} topology. CdTN was further characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XPRD), IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and elemental analysis. Notably, further research showed that CdTN possesses the ability in CO2 adsorption at low temperature.

Criar uma unidade africana através da história: a questão da origem dos antigos egípcios na historiografia pan-africanista de Cheikh Anta Diop
Authors: Dias Luciana
Published: October 2022

Este artigo aborda a proposta historiográfica de Cheikh Anta Diop (1923-1986) de cimentar a unidade africana por meio da construção ideacional de um passado comum, que remontaria ao Egito Antigo, e de um conjunto de fatores culturais que seriam partilhados pelas civilizações africanas existentes desde a Antiguidade até a contemporaneidade. Entre as fontes analisadas estão Origem dos antigos egípcios, texto apresentado por Diop em 1974 em colóquio da Unesco, e Nações negras e cultura, livro publicado em 1955. Em ambos estes trabalhos, Diop defende a tese de que os antigos egípcios eram negros. Exploraremos o contexto de produção da obra de Diop, fazendo referência ao ambiente intelectual em que formulou as suas ideias, à sua atuação política e à conjuntura internacional em que viveu. Discutiremos o impacto da sua obra e que inspiração podemos retirar dela, para além das críticas que também se podem fazer.

В то же время в силу своей специфики соответствующих процессов конкретные возможности применения цифровых технологий не могут быть в разных сферах одинаковыми, хотя к сближению таких возможностей необходимо стремиться, поскольку это может обеспе- чить значительную экономию средств, например, за счет избегания их инвестирования в те на- правления, где на сегодняшний день цифровизация малоперспективна или вовсе невозможна. Для решения поставленной проблемы авторы проанализировали звенья сетевой ценностной цепочки, концепция которой была разработана известным американским специалистом в области управления М. Портером, и предложили рекомендации по возможности или невозможности использования в них сегодня цифровых технологий.
