The population of small animals reached 52.2 million canines and 22.1 million felines, dogs and cats have cohabited with humans for thousands of years and people who live in a healthy way with their pets have a lower rate of depression, this human/animal connection has brought benefits to humanity and with that the dogs and cats are being considered by the tutors as part of the family. Natural food has been conquering the world of pets mainly because it does not contain chemicals, artificial preservatives and the raw material is easy to acquire. The data were acquired through a virtual platform and consisted of a questionnaire that had 3 questions about the tutor's profile: sex, age group and minimum wage income, 2 questions to know the population of dogs/cats and 3 last questions: if the tutor has already consulted a professional in pet nutrition, if he would like to take his pet to the nutritionist to obtain a balanced diet and how many he would be willing to pay for an appointment. 109 responses were obtained, 68.8% women, 28.4% men and 2.8% non-binary tutor. Most of the people who participated were young people aged between 18 and 33 years old. of the people interviewed, only 8 individuals did not have dogs and for cats, it is observed that 63 people do not have this species at home. most tutors have never consulted a pet nutrition professional for information on what best suits their diet. The importance of the tutor's profile in relation to the population of dogs and cats was observed, as well as the awareness of the need to consult a professional before purchasing any new diet on the market to maintain the health and well-being of pets.

The effects of defoliation frequency (21, 28, 35 and 42 days) and defoliation intensity (20, 30 and 40 cm above the ground) on green dry matter (GDM) yield, and chemical composition of Megathyrsus maximus cv. Tamani were evaluated under natural field conditions at the Roraima´s savannas. Defoliation regimes affect productivity and chemical composition of M. maximus cv. Tamani forage. The decrease in the pasture defoliation frequency and intensity improved the accumulation of forage, however it reduces the tissue concentrations of N, P, Ca, Mg and K. Irrespective of defoliation frequencies, the highest levels of N (25.31 g kg-1), P (2.11 g kg-1), Mg (2.78 g kg-1) and K (21.13 g kg-1) were recorded for the defoliation intensity at 40 cm above the ground, except for Ca (4.31 g kg-1), where the greatest concentration was obtained with defoliations at 30 cm above the ground. The use of defoliation frequency around 32 days and defoliation intensity of 28 cm above the ground can be considered adequate for the management of pastures of M. maximus cv. Tamani, in order to provides higher forage productivity and quality, regrowth vigor, larger efficiency of forage utilization, greater tissue renewal and canopy structure more favorable to grazing.

Published: October 2021

Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the primary pathogen of the pathology known as enzootic pneumonia, a highly contagious chronic respiratory disease that affects pigs, characterized by high morbidity and low mortality. The etiologic agent is found in the respiratory mucosa, adhered to the ciliated epithelium of the trachea, bronchi and bronchioles. Infections occur worldwide and have major economic impacts for the pig industry. The present work aimed to carry out a review of the control strategies and economic losses caused by M. hyopneumoniae, for this purpose research was carried out based on information acquired from scientific articles, books, theses and dissertations on M. hyopneumoniae. The transmission of the agent occurs mainly by direct contact of the respiratory secretions of a pig with a susceptible pig. The disease is most commonly seen in growing and finishing animals. After the infection, destruction of the mucociliary system occurs, together with the alteration of the immune response, increases the susceptibility of pigs affected to secondary infections. Clinical signs are based on dry cough, runny nose, low herd development, lack of shine and uneven score among piglets. The severity of the lesions depends on environmental factors, management and host immunity. There are several diagnostic tests that can detect the agent, the choice of the test depends on the patient's clinical circumstances and property, the most used being the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and ELISA tests. Vaccination is commonly used, studies have observed a reduction in bacterial loads and a drop in the severity of clinical signs in vaccinated pigs, currently available vaccines are economical and easy to access, but some studies have concluded that neither vaccination nor preventive medication can prevent infection and adhesion of M. hyopneumoniae to the hair cells of the respiratory tract to occur. research is needed to improve understanding of the microorganism's mechanisms of action and its interaction with the host and other pathogens, as this research can assist in the development and improvement of control methods, such as the development of new vaccines that provide better protection to the animal.

This review aims to provide information for the veterinarian to guarantee a safer anesthetic period for dogs and cats. For this part, the main points of the construction of an anesthetic protocol in surgical procedures for small animals, based on history and previous exams, as well as the preparation of equipment and accessories used for anesthesia and monitoring will be pointed out. Several aspects will be considered for success in anesthesia, such as: communication with the tutor in which the type of anesthetic procedure and the risk factors specific to the animal's tutor are presented; pre-anesthetic evaluation to evaluate the patient and his possible physiological changes; premedications and sedative and anxiolytic drugs used in the anesthetic period; preparation of anesthetic equipment ensuring that all selected are connected and connected to the source; anesthetic induction achieved effectively and efficiently by intravenous administration of fast-acting drugs; anesthetic maintenance by a combination of injectable and inhalant drugs or separately; and the patient's anesthetic recovery, when he continued to monitor the patient's physiological parameters until complete recovery. Therefore, considering the external aspects, the complexity of the anesthetic procedure and the need to include actions from the moment the animal is at home until anesthetic recovery is evident.

Published: October 2021

In ruminant production systems, feeding can account for 60 to 70% of the costs of the activity, thus, the nutritional assessment of food and the formulation of balanced diets that meet the requirements of animals represent an important challenge in livestock production. Several methods have been used to evaluate the modulation of rumen fermentation and to estimate the degradation characteristics of food and diets intended for feeding ruminants. These methods involve measuring the disappearance of the substrate during incubation in the rumen (in situ), in the buffered rumen liquid (in vitro) and are mainly endpoint measurements. In addition, it is possible to evaluate the degradation kinetics by measuring the differences in residues at different incubation times. The assessment of the nutritional value of foods and diets is also possible through the use of techniques that measure gas production. These techniques measure the appearance of rumen fermentation products, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) gases, short-chain fatty acids, ammonia and microbial biomass. The aim of this review was to describe the main in situ and in vitro methods used to evaluate food for ruminants.

Sporotrichosis is a fungal infection that may affect humans and animals, especially felines. The main fungus responsible for the infection is the Sporothrix schenckii, which may be found in the soil and organic matter. Transmission in hu-mans occurs through scratch or bite from infected cats, and the main symptom is re-lated to cutaneous lesions. Number of cases has been increasing in the city of São Paulo, becoming a zoonosis of compulsory notification in 2020. The present study aimed to verify the knowledge of tutor of cats regarding the disease which resulted in the identification of a majority of correct answers regarding the definition of zo-onosis, as well as the etiologic agent of sporotrichosis. Still, these tutors could not identify the mode of transmission and symptomatology of the disease, putting into evidence the need of information and educational actions to help identifying and controlling the cases of sporotrichosis.

Management failures due to excess feed supply, fish overpopulation and dissolved oxygen deficit in water are among the leading causes of mortality in fish farming. Therefore, these failures are important differential diagnoses that should be considered during investigations of notifiable diseases by the official veterinary services. This article reports a case of estimated total mortality of 70% in a tilapia farm in Brasília/DF, Brazil, caused by the excess feed provided, fish overpopulation and absence of aeration systems. The deaths were caused by hypoxia found in 4 of the 5 existing fish pond after analyzing the dissolved oxygen concentration in each unit. This fact highlights the importance of water analysis kits when attending to suspected fish diseases, as it is an important differential diagnosis, especially in cases of high mortality. Another finding was the presence of hepatic steatosis in the eight necropsied tilapias, confirmed by the observation of fatty degeneration of hepatocytes in histopathological assays.

The easy transmission of rabies virus among domestic and street dogs and cats, in which it causes pathogenic dissemination even to humans is a major public health problem in Brazil. The Brazilian epidemiology carried out through the prophylaxis of rabies vaccination campaigns has enabled the significant change in the pictures of infected animals notified to the Ministries of Health, Livestock Agriculture and Supply. Although notified, the pictures need to be investigated and potentially correlated with the human pictures also infected and failures of annual vaccination supplies. In this descriptive analysis, it was observed that as a priority the Northeast region led with the highest number of cases of rabies virus in the 3 years analyzed (2017-2018-2019). Thus, it is observed that even with positive national coverage, confirmed cases were still obtained, except for an ideal regulation and maintenance of cases where no confirmed cases were obtained. It is concluded that zoonotic diseases are gradually decreasing as their prophylaxis maintains its linear.

Canine Diabetes Mellitus (CDM) is represented as a group of autoimmune metabolic diseases of multifactorial etiology. In CDM there is a relative or absolute deficiency of insulin that leads to a failure of the cells to obtain and use glucose. Are most cases, diagnosed dogs will be insulin dependent for all life, and when the disease is not treated will the consequence is death. The objective of this review was to study the histopathology and physiology of the pancreas to understand the etiopathogenesis of CDM, based on the description of pancreatic pathological changes resulting from it or that favor its occurrence. The methodology of this research was to review literature from books and scientific production in veterinary medicine, based on research related to the following. Currently, there is no internationally defined criterion for the classification of diabetes in small animal. Classification of CDM according to the human model is common, bit some authors defend the use of primary and secondary CDM. The main histological alterations of the pancreas in dog with CDM include partial or total destruction of the islets of Langerhans, vacuolization and/or hydropic degeneration, presence of leukocyte infiltration, although divergent between authors, and antibodies when immune-mediated; amyloid deposits are also described, predisposing to glucotoxity. Some pancreatic changes are caused by CDM as a consequence, but the opposite also occurs. The autoimmune physiological mechanisms together with genetic and environmental factors, insulin antagonist drugs and adjacent diseases play an important role in the development and progression of CDM, resulting in the irreversible loss of function of β-pancreatic cells.
Achados necroscópicos de gota úrica visceral em lóris arco-íris (Trichoglossus haematodus): Relato de caso
Authors: Silva Gabriel
Published: October 2021

Uric gout is a common disorder in birds kept in captivity as companion animals, being characterized by the deposit of urate crystals in several organs, which can present as visceral or articular gout. This case report deals with the macroscopic findings of visceral uric gout at the necropsy of a rainbow lory (Trichoglossus haematodus). The necropsy highlighted the diffuse accumulation of urate on the pericardium, liver, intestines, spleen and kidneys, with no signs of joint gout. These lesions found are consistent with what has been described in the literature regarding visceral uric gout. In addition to these, we also found: hepatomegaly with altered liver color, which may be suggestive of hepatic lipidosis. Knowing that gout is a metabolic disorder, there are several possibilities for its onset, usually associated with nutritional causes such as: excess protein in the diet, toxicosis by hypervitaminosis D3, vitamin A deficiency and excess calcium, in addition to renal failure or severe dehydration, with vitamin A deficiency being closely linked to kidney damage. Hyperuricemia, one of the factors that precedes gout, may be associated with fasting and a lysine-deficient diet. Nutritional factors are important in the case report, since the rainbow loris is a species with extremely specific habits, consuming foods with lower protein levels than other parrot species. This is the first report of visceral uric gout in Trichoglossus haematodus.

Published: October 2021

The dental enamel is the most mineralized tissue from the body, providing coating and protection to the teeth. Its primary structural components are ameloblasts which, individually, are actually very sensitive structures. Whenever there is an injury to the amelogenesis we observe defects in the enamel. Enamel hypoplasia happens when there is a defective formation of its organic matrix, leading to irregularities on the enamel’s surface and changes in its color. The diagnosis of this condition is based on clinical observation, and the treatment is restoration, which is aimed at decreasing dental sensitivity. The goal of this paper is to review a case of a female canine patient, diagnosed with enamel hypoplasia treated at Veterinary School Clinic Marcos Vinicius Tranquílim of the State University of Midwest. The case was conducted with a surgical periodontal treatment and a dental restoration, with the hopes of improving the quality of the patient's life.

Reološka mjerenja su vrlo važna u prehrambenoj industriji kao sredstvo za fizičku karakterizaciju sirovine prije prerade, za poluproizvode tijekom proizvodnje i za gotovu hranu. U ovom radu istraživan je utjecaj vrste meda, brzine rotora i vremena homogenizacije na reološka svojstva majoneze s medom. Korištene su vrste meda: bagremov, lipov, šumski, proljetni. Za izradu majoneze korišteno je rafinirano suncokretovo ulje (linolni tip). Mehanički proces homogenizacije majoneze proveden je kod 10000 o/ min, 12000 o/min i vremenu od 2 i 4 minute pri sobnoj temperaturi. Majoneza sa 75% uljne faze izrađena je po tradicionalnoj recepturi bez dodanog konzervansa, čime je trajnost proizvoda vremenski ograničena. Mjerenja reoloških svojstava provedena su na rotacijskom viskozimetru s koncentričnim cilindrima, pri temperaturi od 25 ºC. Iz dobivenih podataka izračunati su reološki parametri: prividna viskoznost, koeficijent konzistencije i indeks tečenja. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da vrsta meda utječe na reološka svojstva majoneze s medom. Porastom brzine rotora i vremena trajanja procesa homogenizacije mijenjaju se reološka svojstva majoneze.

The aim of this study was to elaborate on the mineral content variability of two dry-cured ham types for better understanding of the contribution of minerals to reference daily intake (RDI). These two ham types were based on Istrian and Dalmatian ham manufacturing process. Significantly higher (P<0.05) contents of ash, NaCl, sodium (Na), potassium (K), phosphorus (P), zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), and manganese (Mn) were found in Istrian ham, while Dalmatian ham had higher moisture content. Calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) content did not differ between ham types. The variability of moisture, ash, NaCl, Na, P, Mg, and Ca content can be regarded as low, while the variability of K, Zn, Fe, Cu, and Mn content should be considered as high. It was observed that mineral content variability within ham type was more often lower than overall variability. Intake of Na by consumption of 100 g of dry-cured ham is between 2350.54 mg in Dalmatian ham and 3148.33 mg in Istrian ham, respectively, thus exceeding recommended daily limitation. Therefore, more efforts in ham manufacturing have to be done to lower Na content. Average contribution of K, P, and Zn to the RDI values were 31.89 %, 40.14 %, and 50.80 %, respectively. Considering that, dry-cured ham could be regarded as a source of a significant amount of these minerals. Contribution of Fe and Cu should be carefully considered because of high variability between ham types. Contribution of Mg, Ca, and Mn to RDI values were lower than 10 %.

Published: October 2021

The problem of modeling signals of various spatial coherence in radio engineering systems is considered. First, a mathematical model for spatially coherent signals in the form of stochastic differential equations is constructed, followed by its study in the Simulink environment. The following is a method for constructing a mathematical model for a more general case – partially coherent signals, and its accuracy is also evaluated. Based on the developed models, an algorithm for estimating the parameters of partially coherent signals is synthesized. Based on the obtained dependence of the sensitivity of the model to deviation from a priori data, conclusions are drawn about a sufficiently high accuracy of estimation using synthesized algorithms.

Published: October 2021

The problem of finding the optimal solution in a self-organizing autonomous group robotic system under conditions of uncertainty is considered. A method for assessing the quality of group management based on a statistical and probabilistic decision-making criterion under uncertainty conditions has been developed. A distinctive feature of the method is the use of trust metrics. This approach allows us to identify and reduce the influence of destabilizing factors in the process of information interaction in an autonomous group of cyber-physical objects. The results can be used in the development of algorithms for group control of swarms of autonomous robotic complexes.

2021 Miles Conrad Award Lecture: Heather Joseph
Authors: Joseph Heather
Published: October 2021

This paper is based upon the 2021 Miles Conrad Award Lecture that was given by Heather Joseph at the second annual NISO Plus conference held virtually from February 22–25, 2021. The lecture provided a brief look back at the emergence of the Open Access (OA) movement in scholarly communication beginning with the E-biomed proposal in 1999 that was shortly followed by the Budapest Declaration released on February 14, 2002, through how far it has come in almost two decades. The author notes that the initial reaction to OA was often just a quick dismissal of it as an idealistic pipe dream and as the idea began to grow in popularity, skepticism changed into hostility. OA was criticized as being too disruptive to the then-existent publishing paradigm. Yet, far from disappearing, the movement towards the open sharing of knowledge steadily advanced. Today conversations about “why” or “whether” to open up the scholarly communication system have evolved into conversations about how best to do it. The author notes that the Budapest Declaration underscored that the end goal of OA is to empower individuals and communities around the world with the ability to share their knowledge as well as to share in accessing the knowledge of others. She warns that members of the global scholarly communication community must look critically at who currently can participate in the production of knowledge, and whose voices are represented in the “global intellectual conversation” that need to be facilitated. Whose voices are still are left out because structural barriers – be they technical, financial, legal, cultural, or linguistic – prevent them from joining?

Published: October 2021

BACKGROUND: To date, systematically objective evaluations of vestibular function in children with cochlear implantation (CI) have been conducted sparsely, especially in children with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome (LVAS). OBJECTIVE: Our goal was to investigate the function of all five vestibular end-organs pre- and post-cochlear implantation in children with LVAS and normal CT. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, 34 children (age 4–17 years) with bilateral profound sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) undergoing unilateral CI were included. Participants included 18 (52.9%) children with LVAS. Objective modalities to evaluate vestibular function included the caloric test, cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMP), ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (oVEMP), and video head impulse test (vHIT). All measurements were performed before surgery and 9 months after surgery. RESULTS: Mean age at CI was 8.1±3.7 years. Caloric testing showed hypofunction in 38.2% of cases before implantation and in 50% after (p > 0.05). We found a significant increase of overall abnormality rate in cVEMP and oVEMP from pre- to post-CI (p < 0.05). In all three semicircular canals tested by vHIT, there were no statistically significant mean gain changes (p > 0.05). Higher deterioration rates in cVEMP (53.3%) and oVEMP (52.0%) after surgery were observed (p < 0.05). In children with LVAS, cVEMP revealed a higher deterioration rate than superior semicircular canal (SSC) and posterior semicircular canal (PSC) (p < 0.05). In children with normal CT, the deterioration rates in VEMPs were both higher than those in vHIT (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In general, the otolith organs were the most affected peripheral vestibular sensors in children after cochlear implantation. The variations in otolith function influenced by CI were different between children with LVAS and normal CT. We recommend the use of this vestibular function test battery for children with cochlear implantation.

A synthesis procedure was developed and a new carbacylamidophosphate type ligand N,N'-tetraethyl-N''-trifluoroacetylphosphoroustriamide (CF3C(O)NHP(O)(NC2H5)2, HL) that contains C(O)NP(O) chelating fragment was isolated in the crystalline state. A mononuclear erbium complex [Er(HL)3(NO3)3] and a tetranuclear nickel complex [Ni4L4(OCH3)4(CH3OH)4] were isolated in the crystalline state. The suggestion about the type and coordination mode of the ligand in complexes was made based on IR spectroscopic investigations: deprotonated (acido-) form in bidentate manner in nickel complex and neutral form in monodentate manner in erbium complex. According to X-ray structural studies, different coordination modes of the ligand in complexes were determined: bidentate chelate manner via the oxygen atoms of the phosphoryl and carbonyl groups of the ligand with the formation of six-membered chelate cycles in case of nickel complex and monodentate manner via the oxygen atom of the phosphoryl group of the ligand in case of erbium complex, the coordination polyhedron of which was interpreted as a distorted three-handed trigonal prism.

Authors: Julia Dwi Sabtika , Qaira Anum  , Rina Gustia
Published: October 2021

Background: Condylomata acuminata (KA) or better known as genital warts disease is a genital area infectious disease caused by Human papilloma virus (HPV). The highest prevalence infection of the condylomata acuminata occurs during active sexual periods, namely age 17-33 years, with the peak occurring at the age of 20-24 years. Currently HPV 16 and 18 are known to cause malignancy in the genital and anogenital region including cervical cancer and anal cancer, while HPV 6 and 11 are the cause of 90% of condylomata acuminata. HPV is linked to the findings of 500,000 new cases of cervical cancer and 250,000 deaths from cervical cancer each year worldwide.1

Case report: One case of condylomata acuminata in a 19-year-old adolescent girl with a major complaint of warts around her genitals that felt itchy and gradually getting bigger since 2 weeks ago. Patient was a student and unmarried. History of sexual contact with men with genito-genital without using condoms since 5 months ago. Venereological state : on the vulva and perineal there were multiple vegetations with verucose surfaces with the largest size 0.8 cm x 0.5 cm x 0.1 cm and the smallest size 0.2 cm x 0.2 cm x 0.1 cm. Acetowhite examination result was positive and PCR examination results found positive HPV types 6,11,16 and 18.

Discussion: Patients are diagnosed to condylomata acuminata with a history of free sex at an early age. The condylomata acuminata experienced by patients was type 6,11,16 and 18. These types of 16 and 18 HPV are know to cause malignancy in the genital and anogenital region including cervical cancer and anal cancer.

Published: October 2021

One of the priority tasks of the Decentralization Reform is to create conditions for the mobilization of sufficient financial resources in order to ensure the functioning and development of the relevant territorial community and its local budget. The ultimate goal of the reform is to form self – sufficient territorial communities with financially sound budgets and a high level of financial independence. In such conditions, when local budgets ' own revenues are limited, the development budget plays a leading role in financing the community. The development budget is one of the indicators for assessing the quality of life in territorial communities because it provides financing for infrastructure and the quality of local services, which ultimately determine the growth of the local economy as a whole. However, the revenue side of the development budgets of local budgets in Ukraine, even taking into account certain positive changes enshrined in the new version of the Budget code, is not able to meet the financial needs of territories in budget investments in the current conditions. Given this, the problems of using development budget funds as part of the special fund of local budgets do not lose their relevance today.
Therefore, the article is devoted to substantiating the importance of the development budget and assessing potential directions for its use. The scientific work reveals theoretical approaches to defining the essence of the concept of "development budget", its role and purpose. The key role of the development budget in financing the city's infrastructure is outlined. Directions and areas of allocation of development budget funds in accordance with the current legislation are considered. The total amount of expenditures of the Lviv development budget is determined. The analysis and evaluation of the directions of using funds from the Lviv development budget was carried out. Expenditures of the Lviv development budget at the expense of subventions from the state and regional budgets are considered. Based on the analysis, the priority tasks necessary for further improvement of the expenditure system of the development budget are indicated.

The article is devoted to the analysis of trends in international trade in the conditions of current global challenges, including the pandemic that led to the introduction of quarantine restrictions, lockdown, and closure of national borders causing one of the largest economic crises in the last century. The article also aims to substantiate the role of exports for economic development of countries. Important global trends that have been observed are identified, the processes of development of the sphere of international trade are determined, and the position of the World Trade Organization in the researched issues is highlighted. The article outlines the peculiarities of the application of a number of measures aimed at regulating foreign trade flows including a significant restriction of exports of certain categories of goods and simplification of import procedures for goods needed to combat the pandemic in the countries of the world. An econometric model (a panel regression model) is constructed to illustrate the dependence of the gross domestic product of the twenty leading countries on their exports of goods and services. The study proves that the growth of exports of goods and services will directly lead to GDP growth. It is substantiated that, in the conditions of emergence and long-term action of the trends and with a simultaneous absence of means preventing the negative influence of global factors on international trade in general and foreign trade of separate countries of the world, there is a danger of reduction of their role as an important factor of economic growth. The trends of development of foreign trade of Ukraine are considered in the period of the pandemic, in particular its commodity and geographical structure, rates of change of volumes of trade flows. The stress is laid on the high export-oriented raw materials, the steady trend of import dependence and the preservation of the negative balance of the foreign trade balance of our country. The common features and differences in the processes of foreign trade operations by the EU member states and Ukraine are summarized. Emphasis is placed on the need to create effective response mechanisms at the state level that can reduce the negative impact of global challenges on the country’s foreign trade.
EMPIRICAL ASSESSMENT OF DEPENDENCIES OF INDICATORS OF ECONOMIC SECURITY COMPONENTS OF UKRAINE AND LUHANSK AND DONETSK REGIONS
Authors: Blokhin Pavlo
Published: October 2021

The article examines the indicators and characteristics of economic security of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, impact of regional economies on the economic security of the state as a whole, monitoring of the volume of economic activity, replenishment of local budgets, social protection and security needs, problems of functioning of the financial system in general and the banking sector in particular. Centralized budget and financial support is studied for analytical evaluation of official indicators of local budgets of Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
With the beginning of the armed conflict, the state of financial security of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions has objectively deteriorated. Significant were the tendencies to reduce the volume of economic activity and concession to local budgets, increase in expenditures for the needs of social protection and security, problems of functioning of the financial system in general and the banking sector in particular. Obviously, financial and commercial risks in the market of insurance, investment, capital, etc. have also aggravated. It is worth noting that the Donetsk region was characterized as industrial, as well as technologically innovative region for the independence of our country. Accordingly, we have every reason to believe that regarding armed aggression against Ukraine, the Russian Federation had its own hybrid goal not only to seize part of the country's territory and incite internal hostility, which practically made it impossible to achieve the European integration and Euro-Atlantic aspirations of the country, but also a critical weakening of the innovation and technological complexity of the competitiveness of the national economy.
Comparative analysis of indicators of investment and innovation, foreign economic, energy, social, demographic, food, and economic security is carried out. Weight coefficients of indicators, subindexes of economic security are evaluated and the forces of communication between the components of economic security of Luhansk, Donetsk regions and Ukraine. Empirically assessed the dependence of Ukraine's economic security components on its components of Luhansk and Donetsk regions.
