Resuscitate but not Intubate? Partial Codes in Pediatrics
Authors: Silverman Andrew , Batten Jason , Berkman Emily , Fitzgerald Heather , Epstein Beth , Shearer Emily , Diekema Douglas , Burgart Alyssa
Published: July 2023

The use of partial code status in pediatric medicine presents clinicians with unique ethical challenges. The clinical vignette describes the presentation of a pulseless infant with a limited life expectancy. The infant’s parents instruct the emergency medicine providers to resuscitate but not to intubate. In an emergency, without a clear understanding of parents’ goals, complying with their request risks an ineffective resuscitation. The first commentary focuses on parental grief and how, in certain circumstances, a partial code best serves their needs. Its authors argue that providers are sometimes obligated to endure moral distress. The second commentary focuses on the healthcare team’s moral distress and highlights the implications of a relational ethics framework for the case. The commentators emphasize the importance of honest communication and pain management. The final commentary explores the systems-level and how the design of hospital code status orders may contribute to requests for partial codes. They argue systems should discourage partial codes and prohibit resuscitation without intubation.
The Language of Vietnamese School Science Textbooks
Authors: Hoang Van Van
Published: July 2023

This paper explores textual meanings realised in the theme resources of a Vietnamese lower secondary school science textbook – Sinh h?c 8 (Biology 8). The theoretical framework employed for analysis is Systemic Functional Linguistics. The data for analysis is ten texts selected randomly from the textbook. The units of analysis are major independent clause simplexes and hypotactic clause complexes which have a subordinate clause in initial position. The research has brought to light a number of significant findings of which eight stand out. First, all five types of general Themes: simple Theme, multiple Theme, clausal Theme, unmarked Theme, and marked Theme are employed in the texts. Second, of the four mood function Themes: Subject Theme, Predicator Theme, Complement Theme, and Adjunct Theme, Subject Theme takes up the largest proportion. Third, of the three mood function simple Themes: simple Subject Theme, simple Predicator Theme and simple Adjunct Theme, simple Subject Theme has the highest number. Fourth, between textual + topical Theme and interpersonal + topical Theme, textual + topical Theme predominates. Fifth, of the three mood type simple Subject Theme: simple Subject Theme in declarative clause, simple Subject Theme in imperative clause and simple Subject Theme in interrogative clause, simple Subject Theme in declarative clause accounts for the highest number. Sixth, between simple Predicator Theme and multiple Predicator Theme, simple Predicator Theme has a much higher proportion. Seventh, of the nine types of simple Adjunct Theme examined, six are found in the texts, among which spatial location Adjunct Theme takes the highest number. And Eighth, Complement Theme, multiple Adjunct Theme, textual + interpersonal + topical Theme, interpersonal + topical/Subject Theme, matter Adjunct Theme, role Adjunct Theme, and stance Adjunct Theme are not found in the texts. It is concluded that Vietnamese textbook writers have employed quite a variety of theme resources to construct textual meanings and to create coherence and continuity of their texts.
Human-centered poeming
Authors: Donovan Sarah J. , Boutelier Stefani
Published: July 2023

In this reflective article, we draw upon Richardson’s (2002) advice for configuring words to view the world through poetry, through an analysis of our own social and digital selves into and through the early days of COVID-19. Verselove is a month-long digital poetry challenge, a space to welcome teacher-writers from around the world to create, learn, and share. Through the common passion for poetry, Verselove is a space of new creative professional growth and inquiry through a poetic lens. Since we did not come to Verselove as a research project or with this framework in place, we share what Verselove is and then offer our theorizing about how we are coming to understand this poetic professional development project.

Authors: Shelton Ellen , Kaminski Rebecca
Published: July 2023

This study presents findings and strategies found to be successful through encouraging reflective thinking about classroom practices related to access, equity, and diversity. We asked, ‘How does classroom practice change when teachers reflect on equitable instruction? Do teachers recognize biased practices in their classroom? How might a teacher’s instruction unknowingly create barriers for students, thus limiting student learning?’ Over the course of one semester, participants worked collaboratively to reflect on equitable classroom practices to affect student voices. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the study was conducted through virtual discussions and online platforms. Here, we share reflections that surfaced during the online discussions.
Czy potrzebna nam jeszcze jedna biografia Zygmunta Wojciechowskiego? Pożytek z klasyków
Authors:   SWPS Uniwersytet Humanistycznospołeczny, Olszewski Henryk
Published: July 2023

Zygmunt Wojciechowski (1900–1955) was a historian of law at the University of Poznan. A student of one of the greatest Polish historians – Oswald Balzer – he was a medievalist, heavily involved in politics both in the times of Second Republic and the beginning of the Polish People’s Republic. His works comprised of content of cognitive qualities, but was always strongly coloured with politics. He was the creator of the theory of native Polish lands, located between Odra, Warta and Vistula Rivers. He is looking at history through the prism of Polish-German relations and he critically evaluates the history of the state, which moved away from traditional Polish settlement areas and led a disastrous policy of expansion to the East, which brought its fall and partitions. Wojciechowski welcomed the return of Poland to the western lands (recovered) in 1945, as a compensation of wrongs suffered in the struggle against Germany. The literature on works of Wojciechowski is controversial and requires recognition in a new synthetic book, which is the main thesis of this study

On the 25th of September, 2015 the Polish Parliament adopted the act amending the 1989 Act on Associations. Though there had been eight subsequent amendments, the 2015 act was the first aiming to substantially adapt the Act on Associations – the first legal effect of the political consensus achieved within the Round Table negotiations of the then Communist government and the “democratic opposition” – to new social and economic conditions of Poland. 26 years of functioning of the Act have been the time of passage from “real socialism” to “democratic state of law” having to base, according to the 1997 Constitution, on “social market economy”, and from a practical isolation of Poland within its borders to its opening to the world, in particular within the framework of European institutions. The article sketches, also on the basis of the author’s personal experience due to his participation in drafting and legislative works, the course of the revision works initiated in 2009, in particular of parliamentary works on the 2014 President’s draft law, as well as their limited results achieved in the 2015 act. Analyses of causes of such limitation are presented on the plane of the most important items of the pre- -parliamentary and parliamentary debates, i.e. right of legal persons to associate on equal terms with physical persons (not included in the President’s proposal), right of foreigners to associate on equal terms with citizens (and inhabitants) of Poland (its application had been proposed by the President, but not included in the act), and legal effect of the, generally agreed, elevation of the status of “ordinary association” on functioning of the present ordinary associations that would not wish to become new ordinary associations; the latter question relates to the fundamental issue of the sense of the freedom of association.

The offense against religious feelings expressed in the text of Art. 196 of PC is strongly embedded in the constitutional liberties and freedoms and human rights of both the Council of Europe and the European Union. Freedom of conscience and religion, which originated in the wording of Art. 196 of PC remains in antinomy to other constitutional values protected by both international acts such as freedom of expression, freedom of artistic expression, the freedom to teach and freedom to enjoy cultural heritage. This requires balancing the content of these freedoms. At present stage there is yet no way to resolve the alleged doctrine of countertype of art.

Freedom of movement within the European Union raises many problems in the area of inheritance law. Until now, the inheriting has been conducted in several EU countries – in the places where there were the fragmented assets of the testator. In an effort to standardize the law of succession, the European Parliament and the EU Council adopted Regulation No. 650/2012 which unified rules of inheritance proceedings in the European Union. The regulation was implemented by Polish legislator with the Act of 20th March 2015 and with the connected regulations. The most important change was the introduction of the inventory list and the change of the succession rule of inheritance debts from the unlimited responsibility to the responsibility limited to the value of the list or inventory.

Legal issues associated with the implementation of digital terrestrial television is not only important because of the assessment of their effectiveness. It also tips about what future regulators, based on the experience that we gain today analyzing the administrative and legal convergence in connection with the introduction of new technologies. Their importance is crucial to the debate on the concept of public interest and related restrictions, as well as to analyze the role of public administration in its protection. An example characterized by a change in the understanding of the public interest in the regulatory area of audiovisual media is primarily the sphere of market control and rationing. In the light of the development of new technologies and enlarging coverage market forces should be emphasized that for the sake of proportionality, the objectives of public interest and private purposes, and the rights and freedoms need a more flexibility with regard to rules governing conventional audiovisual media services without negation proven and still existing standards.

ABSTRACT: Gingivitis is an infectious inflammatory process that generates local and systemic conditions, compromising the masticatory capacity of animals. Virginiamycin controls and prevents gingivitis and necrotizing gingivitis in cattle. However, the interaction and effect with different sera and salivary elements remain unknown. The present 6-month longitudinal study evaluated the hematological, metabolic, and salivary buffering capacity profiles of calves with gingivitis treated with virginiamycin. Ten calves were divided into two groups: control and virginiamycin (n = 5 each). Calves in the virginiamycin group had a lower occurrence of gingivitis (P < 0.01, Student’s t-test). The animals that developed gingivitis in both experimental groups had higher salivary levels of alkaline phosphatase (P = 0.01915) and lower serum levels of albumin (P = 0.0028). Additionally, animals receiving virginiamycin had higher serum levels of magnesium (P = 0.008), albumin (P = 0.0008), urea (P = 0.008), alkaline phosphatase (P = 0.008), total proteins (P = 0.008), and plasma protein (P = 0.018). Salivary buffering capacity was negatively correlated with salivary variables such as calcium, magnesium, albumin, total protein, and aspartate aminotransferase and serum variables such as albumin and aspartate aminotransferase. Results of the present study suggested that the occurrence of periodontopathies in episodes is reflected in the local and systemic alterations in animals. In this context, clinical periodontal monitoring also showed the benefits of virginiamycin supplementation on gingival conditions and systemic health markers, in addition to controlling the two precursor forms of periodontitis.
Potential Impact of Climate Change on Mineralization and Main Ions Ratio in Surface Fresh Waters (a Review)
Authors: Lynnyk P. M.
Published: July 2023

The article deals with problem of the fresh waters salinization in view of its relevance for normal functioning of the aquatic ecosystems, development of different branches of industry and agriculture, and human health. Attention is focused on the fact that the fresh waters' salinization inevitably results in decrease of the ecosystem services scope. The main factors and anthropogenic sources of influence on total dissolved solids in the fresh waters and metamorphosis of their ion composition are considered. It is stated that climate changes potentially affect and will affect the surface waters mineralization in future owing to volume and frequency of the atmospheric precipitation, intensity of the rocks and minerals weathering, the ground feeding of the rivers, the marine water penetration into the estuaries along with reducing of the river water yield, etc. The possible impact of mineralization changes on migration of substances from bottom sediments into the water thickness, that is on the intensity of its secondary pollution, is discussed. This impact can be direct and indirect. First of all, it concerns the migration ability of metals in bottom sediments. Elevated content of Na+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ in water intensifies migration of metals of the exchangeable fraction of bottom sediments. The indirect effect of elevated mineralization is expressed in the oxygen regime of the water bodies, which usually deteriorates in the near-bottom water layers of deep lakes and reservoirs, mouth areas of the rivers and estuaries. The dissolved oxygen deficit becomes usual, anoxic conditions are formed, which favor release of Fe(III) and Mn(IV) from oxyhydroxides or the oxide fraction of the bottom sediments. A review also considers some aspects of potential impact of the fresh waters salinization on survival of the aquatic plants and animals and biodiversity.
A novel bio-carbonation method of reactive magnesia with urea pre-hydrolysis for geomaterial stabilisation

Published: July 2023

This study proposes a novel bio-carbonation method of reactive magnesia cement (RMC) with urea pre-hydrolysis for geomaterial stabilisation. Urea pre-hydrolysis in the bacterial solution before mixing with RMC produces more carbonate and ammonia, facilitating the RMC bio-carbonation to form more hydrated magnesia carbonates (HMCs), the dominant product that contributes to strength gain. The effect of urea pre-hydrolysis on the engineering performance of bio-carbonated samples is investigated through a series of RMC bio-carbonation geomaterial stabilisation tests with various pre-hydrolysis times and urea concentrations. The results show that the proposed method can improve material utilisation, enhance the RMC bio-carbonation reaction and promote geomaterial stabilisation performance. The relationships between the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of bio-carbonated samples and the amount of HMCs are studied using a proposed indicator, the degree of carbonation (DC). However, the strength increment is not monotonically related to the amount of HMCs. The optimal pre-hydrolysis time is 6–12 h for bio-carbonated samples with UCS up to 3·79 MPa, and the maximum UCS increase in the samples is up to 404·42%. The critical DC values are in the range 0·23–0·36 with varying urea concentrations. The proposed method has implications for the design of bio-carbonated RMC in field applications.
Automated code compliance checking through building information modelling
Authors: Aslam Bilal , Umar Tariq
Published: July 2023

The design, construction and handing over of building projects need to comply with the rules set by the local authorities. However, manual assessment of the drawings and plans against variable and complex sets of rules is quite cumbersome, inconsistent, expensive and prone to human error, resulting in huge delays in construction projects. The aim of this research was thus to develop an automated code compliance (ACC) checking process using building information modelling (BIM). The drawbacks of manual code compliance were assessed through a review of the existing system. These were confirmed by 15 interviews with officials of the Capital Development Authority (CDA) in Pakistan. Feedback on the newly developed ACC system with BIM integration was sought through 30 interviews with customers and CDA employees. While the new programme of the code compliance reduced the time involved from 1 week to 6 h, customers were concerned about the additional expense of engaging an architect to develop a complete set of BIM models. ACC and BIM integration in local municipalities should raise the profile of Pakistan in industry innovations and pave the way to meeting several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Authors: Da Silva Soares Maiara , Rodrigues Marques Rosângela , Lobo Eduardo Alexis Alcayaga
Published: July 2023

Introdução: Devido à pandemia de coronavírus, houve a necessidade de desenvolver métodos para detectar o vírus SARS-CoV-2. Os laboratórios de análises clínicas foram os principais protagonistas desse processo, gerando, consequentemente, um maior volume de resíduos contaminados. Assim, a probabilidade de contaminação em estabelecimentos de saúde e danos ao meio ambiente, à saúde pública e à economia local/regional aumentam quando os resíduos de saúde não são devidamente separados, recolhidos e eliminados. Objetivo: Verificar como a pandemia de coronavírus afetou a geração de resíduos de saúde em laboratórios de análises clínicas no Município de Santa Cruz do Sul, RS, Brasil. Método: Análise e comparação mensal do volume de resíduos, frequência de coleta e gastos decorrentes dessas atividades no período 2019 e 2020. Resultados: Em 2019, houve uma média mensal de geração de resíduos, nos quatro laboratórios pesquisados, de 175 ± 150 L (Coeficiente de Variação, CV = 85,7%), enquanto em 2020 a média mensal foi de 277,8 ± 315,1 L (CV = 113,4%). Assim, comparando os valores médios obtidos, houve um aumento de 30,1% na geração de resíduos em 2020. Conclusões: Estes resultados levam à rejeição da Hipótese nula (H0) desta pesquisa, e consequente aceitação da Hipótese alternativa (H1), de que a pandemia do coronavírus aumentou a geração de resíduos em laboratórios de análises clínicas, em Santa Cruz do Sul, comparando os anos de 2019 e 2020. No entanto, não houve despesas econômicas adicionais com atividades de coleta e destinação final de resíduos. Ainda, houve a necessidade de uma maior frequência de coleta dos resíduos gerados para a disposição final.

Authors: Schunk Lisa
Published: July 2023

The goal of this sequential experiment was to test tool performance of Late Middle Palaeolithic Keilmesser by examining two relevant characteristics concerning their edge design: the raw material and the edge angle. To do so, a controlled, mechanical setup was used. The samples and the contact material were standardised to limit the number of confounding factors. As tasks, unidirectional cutting and carving movements were performed. The edge angle values for the experimental standard samples were chosen to reflect the calculated edge angles from the analysed Keilmesser.
Mujeres Periodistas Españolas en la Cobertura de la Primavera Árabe: Desmontando los Estereotipos del Corresponsal de Guerra
Authors: Unda Endemaño Annette , Iturregui Mardaras Leire , Goirizelaia Altuna Maialen
Published: July 2023

El contexto bélico ha estado históricamente protagonizado por hombres y es a partir de la década de los 90 cuando la incorporación de mujeres al oficio del periodismo de conflicto comienza a consolidarse. La Primavera Árabe fue unos de los hitos en la historia del oficio, ya que las agresiones sexuales a mujeres periodistas Egipto (2011) generaron un debate sobre la vulnerabilidad de las mismas en zonas de conflicto. Esta investigación pretende estudiar el perfil, las condiciones de trabajo y seguridad de las periodistas que cubrieron el inicio de la Primavera Árabe para los principales medios españoles. Se ha elaborado un censo de las profesionales que cubrieron las revueltas y se ha entrevistado a un tercio de las mismas. Entre los resultados, destacan una alta formación académica, una larga trayectoria profesional en el oficio, y una escasa identificación con el término “corresponsal de guerra”, considerado excesivamente masculinizado. La mayoría de las entrevistadas admite haber sufrido agresiones durante las coberturas, y critican la poca adaptación de las condiciones y equipos para la seguridad personal ofrecidos por los medios. Este trabajo pretende alertar de cómo la doble victimización de las mujeres periodistas por su condición de mujer y de periodistas puede conducir, como ocurrió en la Primavera Árabe, a un retroceso de los derechos adquiridos por las mismas en su profesión.
Vinculación entre el Consumo de Pornografía y la demanda de Prostitución. Evidencias desde la Academia y el Activismo
Authors: Gutiérrez García Andrea , Cuervo Pollán Ana
Published: July 2023

El presente artículo explora la relación entre la pornografía y la prostitución. En primer lugar, plantea cómo el consumo de pornografía supone una de las principales puertas de entrada a la prostitución, poniendo en evidencia que su visualización facilita el acceso a la prostitución y el ejercicio de violencia contra las mujeres en este espacio. También aborda cómo la pornografía sigue teniendo un papel fundamental dentro del terreno prostibulario, pues se reproduce en estos lugares para animar la demanda. En segundo lugar, pone de manifiesto cómo un porcentaje significativo de mujeres en situación de prostitución son también utilizadas por la industria del porno para la producción de material pornográfico, obligándolas a ser filmadas. En tercer lugar, traza la estrecha relación entre supervivientes de explotación sexual, prostitucional y pornográfica, y el movimiento feminista en el que muchas de sus víctimas se integran para reivindicar la abolición de estas prácticas de violencia sexual. Se concluye, por tanto, una evidente retroalimentación entre el sistema prostitucional y la industria pornográfica, deduciéndose que sin la abolición de ambos la integridad y libertad de mujeres y niñas no será posible.

We studied the hygroscopic properties of gelatin from waste-products after processing of common fresh-water fish species form the Astrakhan region (skin, scales, bones, fins, and cartilage) as an object of drying. The analysis of the thermodynamics of internal mass transfer was carried out during the interaction of the substance of the specified product with water. The objects of study were concentrates obtained by convective-radiation drying of gelatin granules, previously foamed to a constant expansion ratio and cooled to the gelatinization temperature. The studies were carried out experimentally and analytically using the tensometric method by Van Bamelen. For the thermodynamic analysis of hygroscopic characteristics, classical Gibbs–Helmholtz equation was used. On the basis of empirical data, sorption isotherms were obtained – functional dependences of the level of water activity Aw on the equilibrium moisture content and temperature of the product. The isotherms of the concentrates of the studied gelatin are S-shaped, typical for colloidal capillary-porous bodies, which is due to the foam structure of the product. The curves can be conventionally subdivided into three zones, corresponding to the moisture of monomolecular and polymolecular adsorption, structural, microcapillary, and microcapillary moisture. Based on the analysis of sorption isotherms for the product under study, the hygroscopic moisture content of gelatin was determined for its various temperatures: Wg1 = 0.280 kg/kg for T = 283 K and Wg2 = 0.301 kg/kg for T = 303 K. The specified moisture content is a threshold for the range of hygroscopic states and is important from the point of view of rationalization and modeling heat and mass transfer during material dehydration. As a result of calculations using sorption isotherms and the Gibbs–Helmholtz equation, the dependences of free, bound, and internal energy as well as the total specific thermal energy of water evaporation on moisture content and temperature of the product under study were derived. It has been established that the nature of these dependences for the studied samples of gelatin concentrates is generally consistent with the published data for a number of materials of a biopolymer nature. These dependencies can be used in the development of dehydration processes and in the design of drying equipment for the production of gelatin concentrates from fish waste.

The rheological properties of dough made from a mixture of wheat flour and flour made from dogwood seeds are investigated. For the production of flour, dogwood seeds were crushed on a disintegrator to a size of less than 100 nm. The objects of study were a control sample without the addition of cornel seed flour (sample no. 1) and samples with the addition of cornel seed flour in the amount of 2,5%; 5,0%, and 7,5% instead of wheat flour (samples no. 2, 3, and 4, respectively). The rheological properties of the test were studied using alveograph (Chopin) and farinograph (Brabender) devices. It was found that the partial replacement of wheat flour with cornel seed flour led to changes in the properties of the dough, namely, the water absorption capacity of the flour mixture decreased slightly, the time of dough formation increased, the dough resistance to kneading increased, and the degree of dough dilution decreased. An increase in the generalized index of rheological properties of the dough indicates that the introduction of cornel seed flour in the amount of 2,5%; 5,0%, and 7,5% improves the quality of the dough. An increase in the elastic-deformation properties of the dough leads to an increase in gas-retaining properties, which positively affects the quality of the finished bakery product and gives it a uniform porosity.
Molecular genetic aspects of adrenocortical cancer
Authors: Yashina D. P. , Afanasyeva Z. A.
Published: July 2023

Adrenocortical cancer is a rare tumor originating from cortical adrenal cells, endowed with aggressive potential, a rapidly progressing course and an unfavorable prognosis. The complexity of early diagnosis of the disease is due to several factors: the variability of clinical manifestations associated with the initial multiregulatory influence of steroid hormones on the body’s homeostasis, the rare occurrence of the tumor and, as a result, the lack of understanding of the molecular mechanisms of its carcinogenesis.

The increased interest in recent years among oncologists and endocrinologists in understanding the fundamental and clinical aspects of adrenocortical cancer and the search for potential targets for new drugs has led to a detailed study of the cellular and molecular genetic mechanisms involved in normal adrenal ontogenesis and their role in tumor transformation. This review presents the currently known molecular genetic processes and their mediating auto-, para-, endocrine factors involved in normal adrenal ontogenesis and carcinogenesis. The paper analyzes results of trials published in international and Russian journals on molecular oncology and endocrinology indexed in the PubMed, CyberLeninka, Web of Science, Science Direct and eLIBRARY databases.

Objetivo: analisar a percepção de estudantes de graduação em enfermagem sobre o reconhecimento conferido à profissão, bem como as situações que potencializam e/ou deterioram este reconhecimento profissional. Método: pesquisa qualitativa, desenvolvida com 40 graduandos de enfermagem de uma universidade pública fluminense. A técnica de coleta foi a entrevista semiestruturada, realizada entre maio e junho de 2021. Utilizou-se o software Interface de R pour les Analyses Multidimensionnelles de Textes et de Questionnaires (Iramuteq) para tratamento dos dados. Resultados: as situações que potencializaram o reconhecimento profissional foram a atuação da enfermagem na pandemia e o acolhimento durante a assistência. Impactaram negativamente no reconhecimento questões históricas, de gênero e a divisão técnica e social do trabalho, além das falhas na execução de procedimentos. Conclusão: apesar do relevante destaque dado pela mídia à enfermagem, os estudantes consideram que a equivocada percepção da sociedade sobre o trabalho da enfermagem afeta o reconhecimento da profissão.

Introduction. Adolescents who practice sports have better mental health indicators. Objective. To analyze the association between different types of physical activity (systematized exercise, individual, and collective sports), mental health, and suicidal ideation in adolescents. Method. We conducted a cross-sectional study with 666 Brazilian adolescents (14-19 y.o.) attending high schools and selected using random cluster sampling. The mental health indicators analyzed were evaluated through the Self Reporting Questionnaire and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, including suicidal ideation. We also obtained physical activity information through questionnaires. Results. There was a higher prevalence related to mental disorders (54.2% vs. 32.5%), difficulties related to mental health (79.6% vs. 48.4%), and suicidal thoughts (22.9% vs. 11.4%) in girls than in boys (p () .001 for all). The boys engaged in more team sports (41.0 vs. 23.8), whereas girls performed more exercise (45.1 vs. 26.5; p () .001). Discussion and conclusion. The practice of team sports helps develop the collective spirit, stimulates social interaction, and develops reasoning and emotional intelligence. Boys who play team sports have fewer symptoms of common mental disorders, lower mental health problems, and less suicidal ideation than physically inactive boys.

Introduction. Academic performance in medical students can be influenced by several factors, including those related to mental health and family relationships. Objective. To examine the factors affecting academic performance in medical students, specifically considering potential diagnoses of depression. Method. A survey was conducted among 747 fourth-year medical students. The survey included questions on sociodemographic variables, mental health, and well-being. The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ) was utilized, encompassing sections on depression, anxiety, panic, eating habits, alcohol consumption, and the Stress Perception Scale. Academic performance was assessed based on students' Grade Point Average (GPA). Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficients, and a linear regression model were employed for data analysis. Results. The study revealed several variables significantly associated with GPA. Age (r = -.388), financial situation (r = .241), relationships with cohabitants (r = .165), and relationships with peers (r = .217) were found to have a correlation with academic performance. Additionally, repeating a course was found to be significantly associated with a person's GPA (r = .518) even after controlling for depression. Discussion and conclusion. The findings indicate that robust mental health, a favorable financial situation, and positive interpersonal relationships are crucial for achieving optimal academic performance in medical students. These results emphasize the need to address mental health concerns, promote a supportive social environment, and provide financial assistance to enhance the educational outcomes of medical students.

Introduction. The pandemic has generated challenges which impact the mental health of the population, including postgraduate healthcare students. Objective. To evaluate the factors associated with depression in postgraduate healthcare students during the COVID-19 pandemic. Method. This is a cross-sectional study with postgraduate healthcare students, with a sample of 117 participants. The data were collected through an online form, between September and November 2021, using semi-structured questionnaires with sociodemographic information and information regarding participants’ mental health, as defined by the DSM-5 Scale, where the depression domain was considered a variable for this study. The variables were tested using the Poisson multiple regression model with robust variance in the bivariate analysis between the dependent and independent variables (95% CI). Results. In the bivariate analysis, there was an association between depression and not having a partner, also a low monthly income, studying for a master’s or professional doctorate and having an employment relationship parallel to the postgraduate course. Regarding the mental health of the participants, the following factors were associated with depression: anger, mania, anxiety, somatic symptoms, suicidal ideation, mental disorder, memory, repetitive thinking, dissociation, personality functioning, and substance use (p () .05). In the multiple analysis, it was found that mania, anxiety, and dissociation remained statistically associated with depression (p () .05). Discussion and conclusion. Factors associated with depression in this population raise the importance of mental health promotion interventions for postgraduate healthcare students, who seek help both through mental health services and through their universities.
THE HERITAGE OF BRUNO SCHULZ IN THE CONTEXT OF EUROINTEGRATION PROCESSES IN THE FIELD OF PHILOLOGY

Published: July 2023

The state policy regarding Ukraine’s integration into the European Union affects all areas of social life. Our country clearly defines its orientation towards entering the educational and scientific space of Europe and improves scientific research and educational activities in the context of European requirements. The European integration orientation is perceived as a certain challenge in the field of philology because European integration is not only about politics or economics; it is also about culture, art, science, and education. The scientific achievements of philological studies serve as certain actualizers of knowledge about our past and present, helping to overcome international disputes and undoubtedly contributing to inter-societal unification in the modern globalized world. The purpose of the scientific research is to analyze the artistic heritage of Bruno Schulz by creating a systematized analytical and informational presentation of video materials about the outstanding artist available on the Internet. This aims to popularize his unique multifaceted creativity in the context of European integration at the philological level, particularly in the field of literary studies. As far as we know, there are no scientific studies that would systematize and analyze online video information about the literary discourse of Galician writers, in particular Bruno Schulz. The research employs the method of cultural and logical analysis of the artistic work. The study presents video content for understanding specific – artistic or visual – works or the entirety of Bruno Schulz’s creative oeuvre. Schulz’s discourse on the Internet is shaped by various video materials such as lectures, presentations, webinars, walks, excursions, reports, interviews, cartoons, documentaries, feature films, etc. The video meetings with Bruno Schulz presented in the scientific study will contribute to the reading of Schulz’s prose, engaging with the Master’s graphic works, and visiting magical Schulz’s places, among other aspects.
