The article deals with the actual problem of cultural contact for modern historical knowledge on the example of the origin and development of the legends about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. The main purpose of the research is to reflect the understanding of historically important images and symbols of European society through the subjective ideas, thoughts and intentions of a person of the Middle Ages. The main method of research is the socio-cultural approach, focused on the relations of people of the time, characterized by cultural diversity. Christianity in the Arthurian legends of the Middle Ages was one of the elements that had a significant impact on their formation and further development. This was influenced by the early and peaceful Christianization of the British Isles, as well as the cultural and religious contact of the Celtic settlers with the population of Armorica. This article examines two branches of the development of Arthurianism, the Christian origins of the legend of the Holy Grail, as well as the influence of Christian morality and homiletics on the plot-forming motifs of the medieval chivalric novel. In the course of the study, it is traced what influence on the development of the Arthurian cycle, in addition to the ancient Celto-Welsh tradition, was exerted by the early Christianization of the British Isles and how the combination of these factors turned Arthurian into a significant cultural tradition of European civilization.

FOOD CRISIS AS A FACTOR OF SOCIAL PROTEST IN SUMMER - AUTUMN 1917 (BASED ON MATERIALS FROM THE KOSTROMA PROVINCE)
Authors:   Kostroma State University (Russia), Vasiliev D.G.
Published: October 2021

The article examines the problem of the food issue, as one of the main factors in the growth of social tension in the province, in the period from summer to October 1917. The Provisional Government tried to carry out rescue measures, but they were all unsuccessful. Continuing the tsarist policy of requisitioning grain and cattle, the authorities only inflamed public discontent. The mobilization of the male population to the front, as well as the return of the migrant peasants to their native village, created the preconditions for a social explosion. From August 1917, the crisis was transferred from the countryside to the city, where factories and factories began to strike. The provincial authorities are passively reacting to this process, not taking any measures to eliminate the food problem. Ultimately, the broad masses of the people begin to lean towards the opposition parties, which, in their opinion, could solve these pressing issues. Based on materials from periodicals and archival sources, the author shows the growth of popular unrest in the Kostroma Province in the pre-revolutionary period of 1917 and comes to the conclusion that the food crisis played one of the main roles in the October Revolution.
POSSESSIONS OF THE COUNTS OF ORLOV-DAVYDOV IN THE ORYOL PROVINCE (UNPUBLISHED SOURCES)
Authors:   Academician I.G. Petrovskii Bryansk State University (Russia), Erofeeva G.I.
Published: October 2021

The article gives a detailed description of the Glodnevsky estate of the mid-late XIX century, based on the involvement of little-known documents in the personal funds of Counts Kushelev-Bezborodko and Counts Orlov-Davydov, stored in the Department of Manuscripts of the Russian State Library, in the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts and in the Russian State Historical Archive, and also used the materials of the Central State Archive of Moscow. On the basis of archival sources, the economic model of the Glodnev estate development is traced, including the economic activity of the estate is sufficiently reflected. At the end of the XVIII century, the owners of the Glodnevsky estate were the illustrious nobles Bezborodko, then the Kushelevs-Bezborodko, representatives of this family served the Fatherland faithfully for many decades. In this regard, their private life, including those related to the management of the estate, deserves attention. The next owner of the Glodnevsky estate was Count A.V. Orlov-Davydov. For the period of ownership of the estate by Count Anatoly Vladimirovich, the estate turns into a high-yield economy. The relevance of the article is also determined by the fact that a significant part of the land of the Glodnevsky estate was located on the territory of the modern Bryansk region. Despite the fact that most of the buildings on the estate have been lost, the main manor house, fragments of the park have survived to this day, so it is quite fair to pay more attention to this manor and highlight its historical past.

Authors:   Smolensk Cossack Institute of Industrial Technologies and Business (branch) of Moscow State University of Technologies and Management named after K. G. Razumovsky PKU (branch in Vyazma) Russia, Komarov D.E.
Published: October 2021

The article analyzes the offensive operations of the Red Army in 1942-1943, deployed on the territory of Smolensk region. The battles in the western strategic direction during this period are considered in the general context of a radical turning point in the course of the Great Patriotic War. Attention is focused on the economic and political factors that determine the strategy of the Soviet high command in planning large-scale military operations against the Nazi Army Group Center. There were revealed the causes and consequences of an incorrect assessment of the state and potential capabilities of the enemy troops on the eve of the general offensive on the Soviet-German front in January 1942. The distinctive features of the operations of the Red Army in the central, Moscow direction, during which Smolensk region was liberated (within the borders until 1944, taking into account the territories later transferred to Kaluga and Kalinin regions). Using the example of changes in the number of personnel and equipment of the Western and Kalinin Fronts, a gradual build-up of superiority over the enemy troops holding the Rzhev-Vyazma ledge - a bridgehead for an attack on Moscow along the shortest route is shown. The article reveals the gradual process of the transition of the strategic initiative to the Soviet army in this sector of the Soviet-German front.

Published: October 2021

Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo averiguar a percepção dos treinadores sobre o papel do treinador e o ambiente competitivo no futebol da categoria sub-10. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com 12 treinadores e observadas cinco partidas das fases finais da competição. Os resultados evidenciam que os treinadores reconhecem o seu papel formador, mas não orientam as suas intervenções para valores e competências mais adequados para essa etapa de formação. Os treinadores percebem a competição como um ambiente de aprendizagem, reconhecendo o jogo e a competição como ambientes de pressão inerentes a outras tarefas da vida, mas salientam que em muitas situações esse ambiente de pressão se torna excessivo, por conta do comportamento dos adultos. Assim, os propósitos dos adultos são sobrepostos às possibilidades de experiência e aprendizado das crianças na competição.

Considerações sobre insucessos na endodontia
Authors: Fachin Elaine Vianna Freitas
Published: October 2021

The evaluation of root canal therapy done in several places by different authors sh0'0' high rates of failures. This is due to unskilled operators which disregard the complex endodontic morpholow as well as to difficulties with endo/radiographic techniques. Failures occur due to improper case selection, by missed canals or by technical problems such as: poor assepsis, poor lateral condensation during root canal filling, short fills and over extended fills. Separeted instruments or Silver points enhance the chances of failures. The author encourages retreatments instead of radiographic follow ups longer than 5 years: is it a carefull observation or a supervised neglection?

Published: October 2021

The aim of this study was to verify prevalence of loss of attachment in 12-16 years old adolescents of a public school in Porto Alegre. The prevalence of loss of attachment was determined by means of periodontal probing a mesial, distal, buccal and lingual surfaces of incisors and first permanent molars. A trainer examiner performed the examination with Williams periodontal probe, odontoscope are standard illumination. The level of attachmet was defined as thc distance in millimeters from the cementum-enamel junction to the most apically probable portion, close to thc bottom of the sulcus/pocket. For cach site, two measurements were performed, the distance from the gingival margin to the cementure enamel junction, and the distance from the gingival margin to the bottom of the sulcus pocket. The level of attachment for a site was calculated subtracting the first and the second or, in case of gingival recession, adding both. Loss of attachment was considered when this measure exceeded 2 mm in buccal-lingual surfaces and 3 mm in proximal surfaces. 3048 sites were examined, showing a prevalence of 4.82% of loss of attachment. From these, 36.77% bled on probing and 61.22% did not. The buccal surface was the one with the highest prevalence of loss of attachment.

Cytopatholory is based on the analysis of mucosa scaled cells. It is able to reveal atypias before there is a perceivable clinical manifestation, contributing for the early detection of cytological alterations suspected of malignancy. Among the malignant neoplasias, the Epidermoid Carcinoma is the most prevalent in the mouth, reaching a percentage of 95 % of cases. By the early stage, most part of Epidermoid Carcinomas are not recognized at the clinical examination. The present study aimed to experience students for the work of collecting, preparing of material and analysis of results obtained by the scaling of the buccal mucosa. 82 patients Who were seeking for dental assistance were undertaken to examination at Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul Dental School Triage Division. The selected anatomical areas for the collecting of material were the lower lip redness, tongue lateral edge and mouth ground. Malignancy cytological criteria were used for the qualitative evaluation of samples. For each smear a cytological degree was applicd, according to the criteria of Papanicolaou and Traut. Class I was the predominant cytological diagnosis (57.8 0/0) against Class II cytological diagnosis (38.2 0/0) and Class III (4.0 0/0). Most of lip smears (80.5 0/0) and ground (52.5 0/0) were classified as Class I, while on the tongue Class II diagnosis were predominant (57.3 0/0). The quantitative analysis of epithelial maturation enabled the acknowledgement of a specific cell pattern for each anatomical site examined. The presence of suspected smears, clinically unconfirmed, suggests the need of further studies on greater population samples.

The current study evaluated the rate of progression of acute
kidney and hepatic injury and its associated mortality rate in patients
infected with COVID-19. For this study, a total of 397 COVID-19 positive
adult patients were prospectively recruited. Routine medical
examination, liver function tests (LFT) and renal function test (RFT)
were performed at the time of hospitalization and this procedure was
repeated for every two days until the hospital stay of the patient or
till the death of the patient. The upper values (data obtained from the
recovered patients or died patients during course of the disease) of LFT
and RFT were compared to that of baseline values (recorded at the time
of hospitalization) of recovered or died patients. The baseline values
of both LFT and RFT values were not significantly varied between
recovered 88.41% (n=351) and died patients 11.59%
(n=46) at the time of hospitalization. However, the
baseline values of total serum bilirubin were significantly (P = 0.001)
higher in died patients at the time of hospitalization as compared
to the recovered patients. Moreover, majority (52.17%) of the died
patients progressed to stage III and stage IV acute kidney injury prior
to death. Furthermore, both LFT and RFT were abnormally elevated as
compared to their baseline values among the died patients.  COVID-19
patients possess high risk for the development of acute kidney and liver
injuries, which can substantially enhance the mortality rate.

Published: October 2021

In this study, complete mitochondrial genomes of nine species
representing three tribes in the subfamily Pyrginae sensu lato
were newly sequenced. The mitogenomes are closed double-stranded
circular molecules, with the length ranging from 15,232 bp to 15,559 bp,
which all encode 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA
(rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a control region. The
orientation and gene order of these nine mitogenomes are identical to
the inferred ancestral arrangement of insects. All PCGs exhibit the
typical start codon ATN except for cox1 (using CGA) and
cox2 (using TTG) in Mooreana trichoneura. Most of the PCGs
terminate with a TAA stop codon, while cox1, cox2,
nad4, and nad5 end with the incomplete codon single T. For
the different datasets, we found that the one comprising all 37 genes of
mitogenome produced the highest nodal support, indicating that the
inclusion of RNAs improves the phylogenetic signal. This study
re-confirmed the status of Capila, Pseudocoladenia and
Sarangesa, namely Capila belongs to the tribe Tagiadini,
and Pseudocoladenia and Sarangesa to the tribe
Celaenorrhini. Diagnostic characters distinguishing the two tribes, the
length of the forewing cell and labial palpi, are no longer significant.
Two population of Pseudocoladenia dan fabia from China and
Myanmar and P. dan dhyana from Thailand are confirmed
conspecific.
Establishment of long-term methyl jasmonate-induced resistance in Norway spruce

Published: October 2021

Norway spruce (Picea abies) is an economically and ecologically
important tree species that grows across northern and central Europe.
Treating Norway spruce with jasmonate has long-lasting beneficial
effects on tree resistance to damaging pests, such as the European
spruce bark beetle Ips typographus and its fungal associates. The
potential involvement of (epi)genetic mechanisms in this long-lasting
jasmonate-induced resistance (IR) has gained much recent interest, but
remains largely unknown. In this study, we treated 2-year-old spruce
seedlings with methyl jasmonate (MeJA) and challenged them with the I.
typographus vectored necrotrophic fungus Grosmannia penicillata. MeJA
treatment reduced the extent of necrotic lesions in the bark and thus
elicited IR to the fungus. The transcriptional response of spruce bark
to MeJA treatment was analyzed over a 4-week time course using mRNA-seq.
This analysis provided evidence that MeJA treatment induced a transient
upregulation of jasmonic acid, salicylic acid and ethylene biosynthesis
and downstream signaling genes. Additionally, genes encoding components
of the RNA-directed DNA methylation pathway showed long-term repression,
suggesting a possible role of DNA demethylation in the maintenance of
MeJA-IR. These results provide new clues about the potential mechanisms
underpinning long-term MeJA-IR in Norway spruce.
A qualidade de vida no trabalho e sua relação com a produtividade e lucratividade de uma empresa de serviço de pequeno porte
Authors: Massi Maria Lúcia Gili , Camargo Lucas Augusto Alexandre
Published: October 2021

A Qualidade de Vida no Trabalho tem sido considerada um agente impulsor da vantagem competitiva das organizações. Sua implantação promove um ambiente de trabalho mais desenvolvido e prazeroso aos empregados, que respondem com aumento de produtividade e lucratividade, levando a empresa a atuar no ciclo de sucesso, pois há uma sintonia entre o bem-estar do empregado e o êxito financeiro da empresa. Com esse enfoque, este estudo, baseado em pesquisas bibliográficas e de campo, se propõe a verificar se a produtividade e lucratividade de uma pequena empresa de serviço são consequência do investimento que ela faz em programas de QVT, oferecendo, aos empregados, planos de carreiras, remuneração compatível com o mercado, incentivo ao desenvolvimento das competências, ‘empoderamento’, autonomia e outras práticas que, conforme a teoria, colocariam as organizações de serviço no ciclo de excelência. Os resultados mostraram que a produtividade e lucratividade da empresa pesquisada não são consequência exclusiva do investimento em programas de QVT, pois a empresa tem apenas uma ação de qualidade de vida e o ambiente de trabalho não é saudável, no entanto, suas margens de lucratividade e produtividade são médias, quando deveriam ser baixas, demonstrando, com isso, que há outras variáveis interferindo nesse processo.

Due to the coronavirus pandemia, dental schools are facing a change onto virtual solutions. Teledentistry has proven to be an opportunity to bridge this gap. This study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptance of a virtual dental examination. It took place during the final maxillofacial examination. Study participants were dental students and real inpatients. A video-call-software was used to carry out the examination. To assess the acceptance participants filled out a questionnaire afterwards. 22 patients answered the questionnaire. They didn’t ‘feel inhibited’ and had no ‘difficulties developing a relationship with the student’. 28 students answered the questionnaire. They found the conversation at eye level but expressed more inhibitions than the patients in a virtual setting, still finding themselves able to have an adequate doctor-patient conversation. Telemedicine seems well accepted on patients’ and students’ side, offering a safe alternative to enable students to maintain dental teaching in a pandemic situation.
On the use of CNNs with patterned stride for medical image analysis
Authors: Marques Oge , Zaniolo Luiz
Published: October 2021

The use of deep learning techniques for early and accurate medical image diagnosis has grown significantly in recent years, with some encouraging results across many medical specialties, pathologies, and image types. One of the most popular deep neural network architectures is the convolutional neural network (CNN), widely used for medical image classification and segmentation, among other tasks. One of the configuration parameters of a CNN is called stride and it regulates how sparsely the image is sampled during the convolutional process. This paper explores the idea of applying a patterned stride strategy: pixels closer to the center are processed with a smaller stride concentrating the amount of information sampled, and pixels away from the center are processed with larger strides consequently making those areas to be sampled more sparsely. We apply this method to different medical image classification tasks and demonstrate experimentally how the proposed patterned stride mechanism outperforms a baseline solution with the same computational cost (processing and memory). We also discuss the relevance and potential future extensions of the proposed method.
The performance of new early maturing pro-vitamin A maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids in the derived savanna agro-ecology of Nigeria
Authors: Kolawole Adesike , Raji Ibrahim , Oyekale Solomon
Published: October 2021

Maize (Zea mays L.) is a staple food for millions of people across the globe,
and it supplies more than 30% of total dietary calories. However, the normal
endosperm lacks a sufficient quantity of the nutritive precursor of vitamin
A. To achieve food security and avert malnutrition, there is a need to adopt
the cultivation of the early multiple stress-tolerant pro-vitamin A maize
hybrid. The objective of this study was to assess the agronomic performance
and yield of the newly developed maize hybrids. Fifteen improved maize
hybrids and one commercial hybrid used as a local check were evaluated in a
randomized complete block design with two replications for two years at the
Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Teaching and Research farm in
Ogbomoso, Nigeria. Hybrids exhibited significant variation (P < 0.01) for
grain yield, number of days to anthesis and silking, ear height and husk
cover. Across the years, the grain yield of hybrids ranged between 4,780.8
kg ha?1 (PVAEH-19) and 7,886.9 kg ha?1 (PVAQEH-1), with a mean of 6,354.2 kg
ha?1. PVAEH-15 ranks the best on the basis of superiority in grain yield,
early flowering and tight husk cover. Fourteen hybrids out-yielded the local
check (4,947.2 kg ha-1), and five hybrids had a significant (P < 0.05) yield
advantage of > 26% over the local check. The consistent performance of
PVAEH-15 and PVAEH-16 in the two years of evaluation indicates potential for
the adaptability of the hybrids to the agro-ecology. Farmers? adoption of
these maize hybrids will boost maize production and prevent malnutrition in
the derived savanna agro-ecology of Nigeria.

Published: October 2021

The apricot is considered as one of the most delicious temperate fruit, a
highly appreciated stone fruit and a valuable raw material for processing.
The Republic of Serbia is one of the leading apricot producers in Southeast
Europe, but the assortment is limited by a small number of cultivars
harvested, mostly in the ripening season of ?Magyar kajszi?. In order to
introduce the most suitable cultivars in the production, having high yield
and high quality for consumption and various forms of processing, introduced
and domestic cultivars have been intensively studied. In Serbia, apricots
are mostly marketed fresh and processed for jams and spirits, but demand for
high-quality dried fruits is increasing. To preserve the nutritional and
sensory quality of fresh apricots, choosing the best drying technique is
significant, and the most preferred technique is the reduction of moisture
through convective drying. The aim of the paper was to compare the potential
of the apricot cultivars ?Magyar kajszi?, ?Novosadska rodna?, ?NS-4? and
?NS-6? for dried fruit production by two-phase technology - combined osmotic
and convective drying, as well as the profitability of apricot drying on
small family farms. Cultivars ?NS-4? and ?Novosadska rodna? were found to be
suitable for combined drying technology. The highest score in the sensory
evaluation of the dried apricots was given to ?NS-4?, and then to
?Novosadska rodna?. The results indicate that the combined osmotic and
convective drying of apricot rather than selling fresh fruits can be a
profitable and important added value tool for small family farms.
Haematological indices and serum biochemistry of broiler chicken finisher fed diets containing dried avocado pear seed (Persea americana) meal
Authors: Olabisi Akinduro , Ayodeji Adedire , Raymond Taiwo
Published: October 2021

The general acceptability of plants with proven records of medicinal values
in the tropics in recent times has necessitated the use of dried avocado
pear in the broiler diet and its possible effects on haematological
variables and biochemical indices. The study focused on haematological and
biochemical responses of broilers to varying levels of the inclusion of
dried avocado pear seeds. The inclusion levels were 0% of the dried avocado
pear seed meal as a control, 2.5%, 3.5%, 4.5% and 5.5%. The experiment
lasted for eight weeks: four weeks for the starter phase (for the
acclimatization of the birds and the maturation of their GIT) and four weeks
for the test trials (the finisher phase). The result showed significant
differences (P<0.05) in the haematological parameters, which implied that
the inclusion of the dried avocado pear seeds in broilers? diets had a
positive influence on platelets, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and
heterophils. The presence of lymphocytes indicated the adequate production
of antibodies, which could prevent opportunistic infections, as was observed
during the experimental trials with birds without the test ingredients. The
dried avocado pear seed had a positive influence on aspartate
aminotransferase (AST), albumin (ALB), total protein (TP), triglyceride and
high-density lipoprotein (HDL). It could be concluded from this study that
avocado pear seed has significant effects on improving the haematological
and serum characteristics of broiler birds, with the highest values recorded
in T4 (4.5%) and T5 (5.5%), respectively.
Two ways of approaching the paradoxes in logic and mathematics
Authors: Kostic Jovana
Published: October 2021

It is usual to think of the paradoxes appearing inside a particular logical
or mathematical theory as the serious obstacles hindering any further
development of that theory. Paradoxes are supposed to show that a theory in
question is built on an unstable, or even contradictory foundation, and thus
point the need for its complete revision. However, a different view on the
paradoxes is also possible. They could instead be understood as the
arguments which show that some particular assumptions concerning the objects
with respect to which they appear, or the ways of reasoning about them, are
wrong. If treated in that way, paradoxes or their solutions could lead to
some new insights into the nature of objects they concern. They could thus
turn out to make a useful focus in developing the understanding of these
objects. In this work, the effect that the first approach towards the
paradoxes had on development of logic and mathematics, in particular set
theory, will be described. Using some examples, we will try to show that the
alternative view on the paradoxes or their formal equivalents actually leads
to some important results in logic, and at the same time, opens the door to
a new logical theory - the so-called theory of concepts.
Econometric Perspective of the Oil Consumption and Economic Growth Relation in India
Authors: K Singh
Published: October 2021

This research aims to study the existence and direction of the short-run or long-run relationship between per capita oil consumption and gross domestic product in India. The data from 1965 to 2015 had analyzed by employing the vector error correction model. For the verification of the same result, a standard Granger causality test had performed. The study results have suggested the existence of a long-run relationship and show the direction of changes in gross domestic product cause changes in oil consumption. As a policy implication, economic growth can be considered a policy variable to improve India's oil resources.
Investigation of Different Scenarios in Simulation of Controlling Water Production in Oil Wells Using Silica Gel Treatments
Authors: M Shabibi
Published: October 2021

Excess water production is one of the limiting factors in oil recycling, which reduces production efficiency and leaves a lot of costs. In this paper, water control methods were investigated in order to find the best way to control excess water production. For this propos first, a real model was made using the history match of one of Iran's oil fields that produced excess water because of canalization and different simulation scenarios for gel treatment have been investigated. In the study of more scenarios, comparing the water production in the early times and later injecting the gel, the percentage of water production for injection in the early times has been further reduced. When the gel is injected for a fixed period of 6 months in the production and injection wells The best results for lowering the rate of production water are obtained when the gel is injected simultaneously into the injection and production well, which reduces the water production rate by 12,000 barrels, and the best oil production efficiency for when simultaneous injection is performed in the production and injection well. The best treatment method is injection of high concentration gel in the early stages of water production and it's better to inject gel in deeper wells.

The development of technologies and technical means of well structures intended for the production of high-viscosity oils is an urgent problem in the oil and gas industry. The design of well structures is determined by geological factors. The well design should ensure trouble-free construction of a sealed space of a stable channel between the fluid-saturated layers and the earth's surface.
The Impact of Offshore Environment on Drillship Positioning and Operations during Drilling the First Exploratory Well in Lebanon
Authors: M Halafawi
Published: October 2021

The offshore drilling activities in Lebanon have been started since 2020. All studies regarding the drilling operations and the environmental conditions become inevitable. Therefore, the objective of our paper is to study the marine environment in the region where a drillship called TUX was used to drill the first exploratory well in Lebanon. The effect of wind and wave on the drillship was studied using two predictive techniques: WW3 and ERA5. Furthermore, both techniques were used in order to predict the climate environmental conditions during the period where the TUX are positioned and performed drilling Well B4-1 in Block 4. The computed conditions of weather forecasting are wave and wind lengths, speeds, and heights. Spider plots were constructed in order to show the behavior of the sea waves during positioning and operating the TUX rig. Additionally, the impact loads produced from the wind was computed using several models and methods. A comparison between these methods was also done to show the accuracy of models. Lastly, the developed studies are very usefully so as to determine the safe conditions and periods for positioning the drillship to keep its stability.

Published: October 2021

One of the fundamental requirements of engineering education is laboratory work and practical teaching. The main purpose of the laboratory is to provide a space for students to carry out practices that allow them to check the theory learned in the classroom, validate hypotheses, propose solutions and recommendations, develop critical thinking skills and develop soft skills. The provision of laboratory work to engineering students helps them familiarize themselves with similar situations as they will find real life as they practice their profession. Primarily, this laboratory work is based on actual hardware and a laboratory where the students can work at a specified time, perform experiments under the guidance of a lab technician and leave with data that they can analyze later using the knowledge they learned in class. These laboratories and the hardware equipment in them are expensive to acquire and maintain. Also, they are an expensive upgrade, yet upgrading is inevitable with the rapid change in technology we are all experiencing. Various institutions have been forced to use outdated laboratory hardware or do with minimal hardware for performing engineering experiments. However, the rapid increase in technology that is contributing to the problem can be used to solve it by having a suitable front-end design in computers that can be used to simulate experiments.
Samanlaista toiseuttamista, erilaisia toisia: Toiseuttavan verkkokeskustelun muodot anonyymeissä suomenkielisissä keskustelukulttuureissa
Authors: Vaahensalo Elina
Published: October 2021

Artikkelissa tunnistan toiseuttavan verkkokeskustelun erilaisia muotoja anonyy­meistä, suomenkielisistä verkkokeskustelukulttuureista. Aineistona on kolmelta eri keskustelualustalta – Tumblrista, Redditistä ja Ylilaudalta kerätyt keskustelu­aineistot, joista tarkastelen ryhmäytymisen sekä ulossulkemisen keinoja toiseuttavan verkkokeskustelun teorian avulla. Toiseuttava verkkokeskustelu on verkkovuorovaikutuksessa esiintyvää arvottavaa puhetta identiteeteistä, ihmisistä ja ryhmistä. Toiseuttavan verkkokeskustelun teoria taas on tapa hahmottaa tällaista puhetta sen erilaisten ominaisuuksien ja ympäröivien kontekstien avulla. Artik­kelissa analysoidut keskustelualustat ja niiden sisällä ylläpidetyt keskustelukult­tuurit poikkeavat toisistaan monilta osin ja artikkelin tavoitteena onkin vertailla, miten ulos sulkeva dynamiikka ilmenee eri tavoin ja miten se toisaalta ottaa samanlaisia muotoja keskenään hyvin erilaisissa keskustelukulttuureissa. Havain­noiduissa verkkokeskustelukulttuureissa toistuivat erityisesti huumoriin, epäilyk­seen, valta-­asemaan, arvoihin ja kansallisidentiteettiin pohjaavat toiseuttavan verkkokeskustelun muodot sekä vertaistuellinen toiseuttaminen. Kullakin kes­kustelukulttuurilla on myös niille ominaisia toiseuttamisen muotoja.

Koronaviruspandemian aiheuttama kriisitilanne on muokannut työkulttuuria terveydenhuollossa, jossa on turvauduttu yhä voimakkaammin digitaalisiin ratkaisuihin koronaviruksen leviämisen ehkäisemiseksi. Koronaviruspandemian vaikutuksia digitaaliseen työkulttuuriin ja sen johtamiseen on tutkittu vähän ja tietoa tarvitaan muun muassa terveydenhuollon organisaatioiden toiminnan jatkuvaan arviointiin ja kehittämiseen.
 
Tämän kuvailevan laadullisen tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on kuvata perusterveydenhuollon johtajien kokemuksia koronaviruspandemian vaikutuksista digitaaliseen työkulttuuriin ja sen johtamiseen. Tutkimuksen aineisto kerättiin puolistrukturoiduin yksilöhaastatteluin perusterveydenhuollon johtajilta (n=21) kolmesta kunnasta ja yhdestä kuntayhtymästä eri puolilta maata touko-marraskuussa 2020. Aineisto analysoitiin induktiivisella sisällön analyysilla.
 
Tulosten mukaan koronaviruspandemian vaikutukset digitaaliseen työkulttuuriin liittyivät digitaalisen työkulttuurin kehittymiseen, muutokseen työnluonteessa sekä työyhteisön muutosvalmiuteen. Koronaviruspandemian vaikutukset digitaalisen työkulttuuriin johtamiseen liittyivät puolestaan muutosjohtamiseen, johtajan työn luonteen muutokseen ja johtajien muutosvalmiuteen.
 
Johtopäätöksenä voidaan todeta, että koronaviruspandemia muutti nopeasti ja pysyvästi perusterveydenhuollon digitaalista työkulttuuria.  Erityisesti digitaalisten työvälineiden käytön lisääntyminen muutti työssä tapahtuvaa kanssakäymistä. Johdon tuki koettiin tärkeänä digitaalisen työkulttuurin muutoksessa, sillä se stressasi ja kuormitti työntekijöitä. Tulevaisuudessa johtajien tulisi kiinnittää etäjohtamisessa huomiota suhteiden ylläpitämiseen työntekijöiden kanssa. Lisäksi niin työntekijöiden kuin johtajien IT-osaamiseen olisi syytä kiinnittää huomiota. Tutkimuksen tuloksia voidaan hyödyntää digitaalisten terveyspalveluiden ja työkulttuurin kehittämisessä, johtamisessa, koulutuksessa ja työyhteisöjen muutosvalmiuden tukemisessa.
Mielenterveyskuntoutujien kokemuksia etäpalveluiden hyödyistä COVID-19-aikakaudella: Laadullinen kuvaileva tutkimus

Suomessa on ylläpidetty ennennäkemättömiä sosiaalisen etäisyyden toimenpiteitä COVID-19-epidemian leviämisen estämiseksi. Etäisyyden pitäminen voi heikentää mielenterveyttä ja lisätä yksinäisyyttä erityisesti mielenterveyskuntoutujilla. Tutkimuksemme tarkoituksena oli selvittää, miten viestintäpalvelut sekä etäyhteydellä toteutetut sosiaali- ja terveyspalvelut tukevat mielenterveyskuntoutumista COVID-19-epidemian aikana.
Tutkimusmenetelmänä oli kuvaileva laadullinen tutkimus. Aineisto koostui mielenterveyskuntoutujien (n=12) puolistrukturoiduista yksilöhaastatteluista. Haastateltavat rekrytoitiin kolmannen sektorin palveluista ympäri Suomen. Haastattelut toteutettiin puhelimitse COVID-19-epidemian toisen aallon aikana marraskuusta 2020 helmikuuhun 2021. Litteroidut haastattelut analysoitiin induktiivisella sisällönanalyysilla.
Etäpalvelut mahdollistivat kuntoutujille sosiaalisen verkostoitumisen, mielenterveyden tukemisen, yksinäisyyden lievittämisen, sosiaali- ja terveyspalveluiden saamisen kotiin ja palveluihin helpottuneen pääsyn. Henkilökohtaiset syyt, kuten digitaidot tai koetut haasteet sosiaalisissa tilanteissa, sekä etäpalveluiden helppokäyttöisyys ja onnistunut toteutus lisäsivät kokemuksia hyödyistä. Toisaalta taas haasteet käytännön toteutuksessa, käytettävyydessä ja vuorovaikutuksellisuudessa estivät hyötymistä etäpalveluista.
Haasteista huolimatta etäpalvelut ovat voineet lievittää COVID-19-epidemian haittavaikutuksia tukemalla kuntoutujien mielenterveyttä ja yksinäisyyttä. COVID-19-epidemian jälkeisessä yhteiskunnassa etäpalveluista saattavat hyötyä etenkin ne, jotka kokevat sosiaaliset tilanteet vaikeina. Palveluita kehittäessä on otettava huomioon, että onnistuneet etäpalvelut ovat helppokäyttöisiä, vuorovaikutteisia ja tietoturvallisia sekä edellyttävät yksityisyyttä kotioloissa. Fyysisten palveluiden ohella sosiaali- ja terveyspalveluita pitäisi voida hyödyntää monipuolisin tavoin etäyhteydellä, mikä voisi tukea eroja yksilöiden soveltuvuudessa ja valmiudessa käyttää etäpalveluita. Asiakassegmentointia tehostamalla voitaisiin paremmin tunnistaa haavoittuvassa asemassa olevien erilaisia tarpeita ja kohdentaa palveluiden toteutusta tarpeiden mukaisesti.
Conventional and constitutional regulations of lawful detention of a person without a court decision: criminal procedure aspect
Authors: Medvid Аndrew
Published: October 2021

The article compares the requirements for the lawful application of detention without a court decision as a criminal procedure established in Article 5 § 1 (c) of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and in the second sentence of Article 29 part 3 of the Constitution of Ukraine. In particular, the content of the concept of "detention" of a person is studied, the list of subjects who have the right to detain a person without a court decision and the legal content and list of legitimate grounds for detention of a person without a court decision as a criminal procedure are studied and compared. Conventional, constitutional and criminal-procedural norms are also studied, as well as the necessity of mandatory further judicial review of the legality of the detention of a person, including the terms of such review.

Based on a detailed analysis of these provisions of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, the Constitution of Ukraine, relevant decisions of the European Court of Human Rights and the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, it is established that the grounds for the detention of a person by a general entity, defined by paragraph 2 of Article 207 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, and a special entity, defined by subparagraphs 1 and 2 (except subparagraph 3) of paragraph 1 of Article 208 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, in general, correspond to the grounds for lawful detention of a person enshrined in Article 5 § 1 (c) of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. Therefore, it cannot be qualified as unlawful interference with the human right to liberty and security of person. At the same time, proposals are formulated to make changes and additions to subparagraph 3 of paragraph 1 of Article 208 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine.

It is also proved that the provisions of paragraph 2 of Article 12 and Articles 209 and 211 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine are critical provisions of the current legislation of Ukraine regarding the lawful application of detention of a person without a court decision. These provisions actually eliminate some shortcomings and establish the necessary legal and procedural grounds for the clarified application of the provision of the second sentence of part 3 of Article 29 of the Constitution of Ukraine, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 3 of Article 5 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, as well as the practice of their application developed by the European Court of Human Rights.

INGE'S THE TINY CLOSET IN GENDER PERSPECTIVE: RETAINING THE POLARISATION
Authors: Adhyanggono G. M.
Published: October 2021

This article is an overview toward a play of an American

dramatist, William Inge. In this case, the play is viewed from gender

perspective as considered 'quite representative' to reveal what Friedan

(1995) stated as polarisation of men and women. The writer wants to

depict the representation of men and women in the play as the central

issue affecting the result of this analysis. In addition, the term gender

should be understood as an umbrella term pervading the whole

discussion. To what extent the verification of the polarisation may

analytically come as the conclusion.
Sleep duration and fatigue in construction workers: A preliminary study

Published: October 2021

The construction industry is known for its high rate of accidents. Among the different possible causes of this situation, we could find lack of sleep and fatigue. Chronic sleep deprivation is a determining factor in the deterioration of vigilance and alert, and consequently a risk factor for occupational accidents. Fatigue is the answer of our organism to sustained physical and mental stress. Regretfully, those topics have been ovelooked in the construction industry. The objective of this study is to understand better these phenomena, such as sleep duration and fatigue, and whether they are interrelated, and to propose strategies to mitigate them and contribute to the reduction of accidents in construction projects. We worked with 154 male construction workers from one Chilean construction company. To assess sleep quality, we used the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). To evaluate fatigue, we used a personal computer version of the Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PC-PVT) that measures alertness and vigilance. This 5-minute test was performed on construction workers on-site in the morning. Those people who took part in the test were classified into various groups according to self-reported sleep hours, namely: 7–9 h (26%), 5–7 h (61.7%), and <5 h (12.3%). These results were compared for three variables (Mean Reaction Time (RT), 10% faster, and 10% slower) using an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test. Differences were found for Mean RT and Slowest 10%, the difference being greater in the group that reported sleeping <5 h, but without statistical significance. Studies with a greater number of subjects and measurements are required throughout the working day.
