Authors: POTAPOVA Oleksandra
Published: December 2022

The article examines aspects of the international experience of education system formation in conditions of decentralization of power in countries such as France, Poland, the Czech Republic, and the USA. It was determined
that Ukraine must quickly and with the least losses overcome the shortcomings of the post-Soviet education management system in order to create a competitive national education system, therefore, studying the experience of countries around the world, analyzing mistakes and successes in reforming the education system in conditions of decentralization of power are necessary to successfully overcome all difficulties in the future development of the national education system. It was concluded that educational systems within the European Union remain unique in each country with a different degree of centralization or decentralization of management and financing of education, therefore it is necessary to find a rational «golden mean» in each of these systems and apply it in Ukraine in conditions of decentralization authorities. The impact of the democratization of education management on increasing the autonomy and level of socialization of educational institutions is determined. The concepts of «democratization» and «decentralization» are highlighted and the influence of these processes on the conditions of functioning of schools, stimulation of creative activity of teams and management is determined. The experience of some countries was studied, which shows that a strong legal state, which supports the principle of equality of all before the law, should be a guarantor of democratic rights in various spheres of social life, and first of all, in quality education. The article also focuses on the main areas of decentralization of educational institution management. Ways to improve the quality and practical significance of education a on the study of the experience of modernization and modification of the education system of the countries of the world and the application of these approaches in the future in the institutions of domestic education, which will contribute to the creation of conditions for deepening the knowledge of education seekers, improving the quality of educational services, socio-economic development country, ensuring the growth of Ukraine’s competitiveness, as well as the creation of new jobs with higher requirements for knowledge and skills.

EUROPEAN EXPERIENCE IN THE TRAINING OF MEDICAL EDUCATION MANAGEMENT SPECIALISTS
Authors: VASYLENKO Yuliia
Published: December 2022

The article examines the European experience in the field of training specialists in the management of medical education in Germany and Great Britain. It was determined that there is a widespread opinion in Ukraine
that in the educational sphere of health care reforms were not implemented at all or were implemented ineffectively. This was facilitated by the vision that the main efforts of the executive authorities were aimed at preventing the collapse of the existing health care system and maintaining a minimum level of social security. On the basis of the analysis of the researches of domestic scientists, it was concluded that the results of their scientific researches make it possible to deepen the understanding of the problems of training specialists in the management of medical education. At the same time, the issue of applying foreign experience of such training has not been comprehensively reflected in the field of public administration knowledge. It was found that in the conditions of European integration, reforming the medical education system is impossible without taking into account the European experience, which will contribute to the development and implementation of a national comprehensive mechanism of public management of medical education. The reviewed various master’s programs in the field of medical education management in Germany and Great Britain revealed their advantages over those available today in Ukraine. It was determined that the introduction of standards for the training of masters of state management of medical education in European countries will contribute to the improvement of the content of domestic master’s programs, while creating greater employment opportunities on the domestic and global labor market. It was found that the professional training of the management personnel of the medical education system is extremely important and relevant today in Ukraine, due to the fact that in many European countries there is a growing interest in the training of highly qualified managers in the medical education system. The main efforts of European educational programs are aimed at increasing the level of requirements for the competence characteristics of managers
of medical education institutions. Ways to overcome the problems of training medical education management specialists based on the introduction of new educational programs are proposed.

Authors: ÖZKIR Demet
Published: December 2022

The role of Citrus aurantium fruit peel extract solution in the existing research is to investigate the effect as corrosion inhibitor on mild steel in the atmospheric environment with its eco-friendly and green effect. It was studied the inhibitor effect of Citrus aurantium utilizing linear polarization (LPR), potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods. The working electrodes were immersed in HCl solutions containing various concentrations of Citrus aurantium fruit peels extract in order to equilibrate the metal-solution interface for one hour before each measurement. The bitter orange fruit peels extract indicated a potent inhibitor influence as a consequence of one hour electrochemical tests, and with the raise of extract concentrations of Citrus aurantium fruit peels, the protection influence of mild steel electrodes in HCl solutions also enhanced. Finally, the surface morphologies of the working electrodes in aggressive HCl solutions without and with bitter orange fruit peels extract after one-hour immersion were analysed by an optical microscopy, it was concluded that the mild steel surface in the Citrus aurantium fruit peels extract solution had a flawless surface compared to the blank one. Experimental data and surface morphology results are highly consistent with each other.

Office syndrome is caused by prolonged sitting at work and ergonomically awkward working postures with repetitive use of the same neck and shoulder muscles. As a result, the posterior neck muscles for neck support work harder and causes tension in the muscles at the neck and shoulder areas, leading to pain and reduction of cervical range of motion. These symptoms can be cured with acupuncture. This experimental research study determined the effects of five consecutive acupuncture sessions on the visual analogue pain scale (VAS) and the cervical range of motion (CROM) in office syndrome patients with chronic neck and shoulder pain in Phayao Province, Thailand. All 40 volunteers (14 males and 26 females) were measured on the VAS and CROM scales before and after five acupuncture sessions. The acupoints in this study were Fengchi (GB20), Tianzhu (BL10), Bailao (EX-HN15), Dazhu (BL11), Jianjing (GB21), Jianwaishu (SI14), Jianzhongshu (SI15), Hegu (LI14), Taichong (LR3), and the trigger point. The data were analyzed into frequency distribution, percentage, mean, and median. In addition, the paired sample t-test for the VAS and CROM variables was used for the data comparison before and after the five acupuncture sessions. After five acupuncture sessions, our results showed that the VAS decreased from level 5 to level 1 whereas the CROM increased significantly in all directions including flexion, extension, left lateral flexion, right lateral flexion, left rotation, and right rotation (46.35 ± 11.35 vs 62.68 ± 8.66, 52.18 ± 13.00 vs 68.09 ± 11.80, 37.81 ± 7.07 vs 52.96 ± 8.72, 37.57 ± 9.49 vs 49.96 ± 8.87, 65.50 ± 14.38 vs 81.24 ±10.59, and 63.04 ± 13.41 vs 76.64 ± 10.61; p<0.01, respectively). In conclusion, five acupuncture sessions for five consecutive days can reduce the chronic neck and shoulder pain from a level of 5 to 1 on the VAS. Additionally, volunteers were able to perform CROM in all directions more efficiently than the pre-treatment.

Authors: ÖZAYDIN Orhan
Published: December 2022

Yabancıların Türkiye’den konut alımları, ülkenin jeopolitik yapısı, turizm cazibesi, kültürel yakınlığı, yatırım imkanı gibi faktörlerden etkilenmektedir. Yakın yıllardaki sağlanan vatandaşlık ayrıcalıklarının kolaylaştırması konut talebini arttıran etkenlerden sayılmaktadır. Özellikle son yıllarda Türk Lirasının yabancı paralar karşısında negatif ayrışması yabancıların konut taleplerini arttıran önemli bir etken olmuştur. Bu çalışmada yabancıların konut talebinin USD/TRY üzerinden ilişkisi kantil modeller yardımıyla incelenmiştir. Kantil modeller sayesinde farklı seviyelerdeki konut alımı değişimlerinin dolar ile ilişkileri araştırılmıştır. Medyan ve üst kantil seviyelerinde USD/TRY katsayı değerleri anlamlı sonuçlar verirken katsayı büyüklüklerinin de arttığı görülmüştür. Yabancı konut alımlarının artışlarında doların etkisinin daha büyük ve anlamlı olduğu görülmüştür. Küresel ölçekteki kur dinamiklerinin yanında Türkiye’deki konut fiyatları ve konut kredi faizlerinin ilişkileri de yabancı konut talebi üzerinde araştırılmış, bu değişkenlerin yabancıların konut talebinde negatif etkisi olmadığı görülmüştür.

Published: December 2022

3D building models are widely used in many applications. The use of terrestrial laser scanning and UAS photogrammetry for 3D modelling is a popular practice especially for constructions with complex architecture. The present article presents an example of using these technologies successfully for 3D modelling of the Episcopal Cathedral of the Holy Trinity from Baia Mare, Romania.  A number of 51 control and verification points were determined by the closed circuit travel method and the intersection method. All measurements were processed in Terramodel software. The control points used in the georeferencing of the scans were materialized by metal stakes and the verification points were materialized by reflective targets. Depending on the construction configuration, the field of view and the minimum/maximum scanning distances were subsequently set. A total of 45 scans were performed to model the entire cathedral. The photogrammetric flight was performed in RTK mode, with corrections being transmitted from the DJI D-RTK-2 Mobile Station base to the RTK drone. All retrieved frames had geolocation and frame orientation elements recorded by the IMU module. A total number of 222 photograms were taken, as a result of a double grid photogrammetric flight, with the camera oriented at 60 degrees, but also as a result of manual acquisition by performing orbital flights at different heights: an orbital flight on the ground floor, an orbital flight at the level of about 40 meters and an orbital flight around the tower.

Authors: Domínguez García Marta , Gállego Royo Alba , Lacort Beltrán Eva , Juan Germán Marisa , Cambra Solans Ainhoa , Magallón Botaya Rosa
Published: December 2022

Objetivo: Conocer los cambios percibidos por las mujeres participantes de un grupo de empoderamiento sobre su estado físico, psíquico y social.

Diseño: Metodología cualitativa mediante grupos focales.

Emplazamiento: Centro de salud (CS) urbano.

Participantes y/o contextos: Mujeres incluidas en alguna edición del Programa de Grupo de Empoderamiento del CS, dirigido por la trabajadora social desde 2012.

Método: Grupos focales audiograbados durante 60-70 minutos. Transcripción literal, codificación y triangulación de los datos, comprobando saturación de la información. Análisis con MaxQDA.

Resultados: Desde el punto de vista psicológico, la situación previa de las participantes presentaba una baja autoestima, sintiéndose por lo general relegadas al último lugar en la jerarquía familiar. Las herramientas adquiridas durante las sesiones les ha permitido reivindicar un papel de mayor protagonismo. Respecto a su estado de salud físico, no perciben cambios importantes, excepto la menor dependencia farmacológica y la mayor capacidad para afrontar sus problemas de salud. A su vez, este programa les ha proporcionado la oportunidad de crear nuevas relaciones fuera de su entorno habitual. En contraposición, se comprueba una gran dependencia a la pertenencia al grupo.

Conclusiones: Destaca que el aprendizaje y la adquisición de nuevas herramientas, la mejora y ampliación de la red social, así como los cambios en la percepción de su propio yo, han dotado a las mujeres de mayor autonomía y ha mejorado su autoestima globalmente. En los aspectos negativos destaca la gran dependencia del grupo hacia la figura dinamizadora, que dificulta su propia autonomía.

Authors: Caturla Bastit Mar , Mas Pons Rosa , Barona Vilar Carmen
Published: December 2022

Buscar el bienestar de la población y la equidad en salud requiere actuar sobre los determinantes sociales de la salud (DSS). El enfoque de salud en todas las políticas es el más idóneo para ello, y la evaluación del impacto en salud, la técnica cada vez más extendida, como instrumento de ayuda en la toma de decisiones.

El objetivo principal de este trabajo es hacer un análisis prospectivo del impacto que puede tener el Plan de Movilidad Urbana Sostenible de Almussafes en la salud y equidad en salud de su población. Para ello, se ha empleado la herramienta Fem Salut al nostre municipi? junto con técnicas participativas, poniendo en valor el papel tanto de profesionales y personal técnico municipal como de la propia ciudadanía.

A partir del análisis de su discurso, y en base a la evidencia científica, se identificaron los principales impactos del Plan sobre los Determinantes Sociales de la Salud: disminución de la contaminación ambiental y acústica, incremento de los desplazamientos activos y del bienestar emocional, etc. También se recogieron recomendaciones de mejora para potenciar los impactos positivos y su distribución equitativa.

La participación ciudadana es un elemento clave en la evaluación de impacto en salud (EIS) de las políticas no sanitarias, y el ámbito local ofrece una oportunidad única para incorporarla en el proceso de toma de decisiones. Con ello, es posible desarrollar políticas públicas saludables y equitativas.

Authors: SÜMER Müzeyyen , KARPUZ DEMİR Nurdan , ÇETİNKAYA KİRAZ Fulya
Published: December 2022

The first 6 years of life are important in the development of children. These years are both the period when development is the fastest in all areas and children acquire basic habits. For this reason, the introduction of individuals to the concept of health from early childhood is an important determinant of their attitudes and behaviors regarding health in their future lives. In this context, our study aimed to evaluate the opinions of children between the ages of 3-6 on the concept of health. The study group of the study consisted of 24 children who attended and did not attend pre-school education in Amasya city center. In the study where the qualitative research method was used, the data were collected with semi-structured interview questions created by the researchers. Content analysis method was used in the analysis of the data. The data were organized and interpreted in categories. The results showed that children's views on the concept of health focused on nutrition at 36-60 months, while children aged 61 months and older were associated with not being sick. It has been observed that the responses of children about what needs to be healthy consist mostly of nutrition-related responses, while health behaviors such as hygiene and exercise are less expressed. Children have been found to frequently associate indicators of health and/or ill-health with symptoms of illness. Similarly, it was found that participants in all age groups expressed the opinion that they would be sick when health was not taken care of. The results were discussed within the framework of the literature and suggestions for supporting children's health behaviors were presented.

Published: December 2022

Örtü altı yetiştiricilikte zararlılarla mücadelede pestisitlere alternatif olarak biyolojik yöntemlerden biri olan entomopatojen fungus kullanımı yaygınlaşmaktadır. Dolayısıyla bombus arılarının entomopatojen fungus çeşitlerine maruz kalması durumunda arılar üzerinde nasıl etkiler oluşturacağının bilinmesi önemlidir. Bu çalışmada farklı entomopatojen fungusların (% 1.5 Beauveria bassiana strain Bb-1, % 1.5 Lecanicillium lecani strain V1-1 ve % 1.5 Paecilomyces fumosoreus strain PFs-1) Bombus terrestris işçi arılarının besin tüketim tercihinde etkili olup olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Araştırmada, içerisinde 20 adet B. terrestris işçi arısı bulunan toplam 20 mikro kolonide 3, 7, 10, 14, 17 ve 21. kontrol günlerinde entomopatojen fungus uygulanmış olan ve uygulama yapılmamış olan şeker şurubu ve polen tüketim miktarları ile ölen işçi arı sayısı değerleri belirlenmiştir. Kolonilerin şeker şurubu tüketim değerleri göz önüne alındığında, fungus içeren şeker şuruplarının standart şeker şurupları ile aynı oranda tüketildiği belirlenmiştir. Polen uygulamasında ise sadece 14. kontrol gününde L. lecani içeren polen tüketiminin istatistiki olarak kontrol grubuna göre farklılık gösterdiği saptanmıştır. Her iki tercih denemesinde de en yüksek ölüm oranları 3. kontrol gününde % 13.00 ve % 15.50 olarak belirlenmiştir. Sonraki kontrol günlerinde ise ölüm oranları giderek azalmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlar entomopatojen fungusların bombus arıları üzerine önemli düzeyde zararlı etkisinin olmadığını ortaya koymaktadır.

Law as a universal form of embodiment of the idea of justice.
Authors: Bulat Ievgeniia , Pichko Roman
Published: December 2022

The article examines the issue of the primary formulation of the idea of justice in philosophy. It is substantiated that justice is not just the central idea of law but a universal form of embodiment of the idea of justice. In other words, the law is a product of the idea of justice, since injustice could not be embodied in law. Modern geopolitical events, in particular, such as climate change, a pandemic, a war in Ukraine will lead in the future to a change in the regulation of public relations. According to this law, as the most effective regulator, will be subjected to serious pressure. The deformation of the existing legal matter occurs both in its formal expression at the level of legislation (in the broadest sense of this definition), and in a more subtle one - ideological and theoretical. These changes should be considered in view of the increasing practical issues raised by identity politics, as well as in issue of revising the meaning and role of the state for society and the individual in the whole. The events authors observe are comparable in scale to the time when the era of classical Greece ended, when the great philosopher Plato lived and worked, whose philosophical views continue to have a great influence on the intellectual search for European civilization after many centuries. It is not surprising that Plato's most important political dialogue "The State" was devoted specifically to the problem of searching and justice substantiation. In this first article the authors strive for drawing the attention of the scientific community to the issue of justice as a benefit. In legal science, the postulate that justice is the goal, the idea of law is consolidated. In the article the first embodiment of justice idea in the mythical representations of ancient civilizations and the relationship between justice and legislation as a mechanism of determining the desired level of justice in the former society are demonstrated. Аn attention on the content of the legal system with philosophical views of a justice idea in Roman times is focused. This formed a unique legal system known today as Roman law. A special class of lawyers, that was a specific phenomenon of the development of ancient Roman society, had an important influence on this process. Firstly, the presence of a class of lawyers is the cornerstone that distinguishes ancient Roman society from ancient Greek one. Secondly, the ideological and philosophical content of the law of Roman society and its going beyond the clear positive limits of the laws of Twelve tables enable. However, the authors offer the other point of view, owing to the fact that law in its form and purpose is a function of justice, a universal form of its implementation; according to which justice acquires the possibility of its practical implementation in society.

Effects of GandhPaalashi (Hedychium spicatum) on the expression of hepatic genes associated with biotransformation, antioxidant and immune systems in WLH cockerels fed indoxacarb
Authors: CHOUDHARY GOVIND KUMAR , SINGH SATYA PAL , KUMAR AMIT
Published: December 2022

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of Hedychium spicatum (HSRP) root powder, to ameliorate changes in gene expression in WLH cockerels fed indoxacarb. After 16 weeks of treatment, all birds from different groups were sacrificed humanly and collected the liver pieces in RNA later for expression study by RT-PCR to evaluate changes in the expression of genes involved in antioxidant function [catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione S-transferase (GST)], biotransformation [cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1)], and the immune system [interleukins 6 (IL-6)]. Changes in gene expression were determined using the quantitative real-time PCR technique. There were significant upregulation of IL-6, CYP1A1 and GPx genes in indoxacarb treated groups. There was significant down regulation of CAT and SOD genes in indoxacarb treated groups in comparison to control. Simultaneous treatments with HSRP produce ameliorative effect and restore the gene activities at par with control. The current study demonstrates protective effects of HSRP on changes in expression of antioxidant, biotransformation, and immune system genes in cockerels fed indoxacarb.

The aim of the present investigation was to study the effect of melatonin on in vitro maturation and subsequent embryo development of caprine oocytes. In experiment 1, 384 in vitro matured oocytes were selected and randomly divided in to two groups, viz. group 1 (control) wherein oocytes matured in maturation media without supplementation for 27 h in humidified atmosphere at 38.5°C with 5% CO2 in CO2 incubator while in group 2 oocytes matured in maturation media with 30 ng/ml melatonin supplementation. After 27 h of culture, nuclear maturation was observed in both groups using Hoechst dye. In experiment 2, 1,336 oocytes were randomly divided into two groups, viz. group 1 (641) wherein oocytes were matured in maturation media without melatonin while in group 2 (n=695) oocytes matured in maturation media with 30 ng/ml melatonin supplementation. After 27 h, oocytes of both groups were then subjected to in vitro fertilization.The rate of nuclear maturation in group 2 (30 ng/ml melatonin) was significantly higher than that of group 1 (control). Similarly, the cleavage rate and blastocyst formation from in vitro matured goat oocytes were significantly higher in group 2 than that of group 1. In conclusion, the result indicated that the supplementation of 30 ng/ml melatonin in maturation media improves the nuclear maturation and subsequent cleavage rates and blastocyst production from caprine oocytes.

Published: December 2022

A biological experiment was carried out with adult Pearl guinea fowl variety (160) in second laying cycle to assess the performance, hemato-biochemical attributes, egg quality and stress levels. Each treatment consisted of four replicates with ten birds in each replicate. The birds were reared for 42 days under battery cage system and fed with ad lib. feed and water. The experiment groups were control group fed basal diet without any supplementation of chromium picolinate (CrP), T1 fed basal diet with 500 ppb CrP, T2 fed basal diet with 1,000 ppb CrP and T3 fed basal diet with 1,500 ppb CrP. There was no significant change in body weight and feed intake due to supplementation of CrP. However, supplementation of CrP significantly reduced the erythrocytes osmotic fragility (%), serum glucose, total cholesterol and improved the egg internal and external quality traits. The supplementation of CrP significantly improved both the internal and external egg quality along with shell thickness. From this study, it can be concluded that supplementation of chromium as chromium picolinate @ 500 ppb improved the egg qualityÂ  and reduced the stress in Pearl guinea fowl during second laying cycle.

The present study was conducted to identify the critical heat stress zone (CHSZ) in a year for energy corrected milk yield (ECMY) of Murrah buffaloes. Monthly test day fat percentage data on 734 Murrah buffaloes spread over 20 years (March 1994 to 2013) were collected from ICAR-National Dairy Research Institute, Karnal and climatic parameters, viz. dry bulb temperature, wet bulb temperature and relative humidity for corresponding periods were collected from ICAR-CSSRI, Karnal. The overall least-squares means for monthly test day fat % ranged from 7.58±0.04 in TD2 to 8.02±0.04 in TD9. The monthly test day fat % data was adjusted for the significant non-genetic factors and was used to estimate ECMY (Kcal/kg). The non-heat stress zone (October–March) and heat stress zone (April–September) were identified based on the trend of monthly average test day ECMY in relation to monthly average THI. Within the heat stress zone, July to September exhibited maximum decline in the trait and was empirically identified as the CHSZ. Regression of monthly average ECMY (Kcal/kg) on monthly average THI in the empirically identified CHSZ was carried out to identify the most CHSZ. During July and August, maximum decrease (–8.18) in monthly average ECMY (Kcal/kg) was observed per unit rise in THI. Therefore, July and August months were identified as CHSZ for ECMY in Murrah buffaloes under subtropical climatic condition. Hence, heat stress amelioration programmes should be undertaken during the period to improve ECMY in Murrah buffaloes.

Published: December 2022

The emergence of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) as a foodborne pathogen has posed a serious public health issue. Milk is extensively consumed food worldwide. The aim of this study was to estimate the presence of MRSA in raw milk in Punjab, by culture and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques. Raw milk samples (291) were collected from all over Punjab. These 291 samples comprised 204 and 87 cow and buffalomilk samples respectively. The S. aureus was isolated on Baird Parker agar and typical colonies were subjected to biochemical tests and PCR for genus (16S rDNA) and species (nuc) specific detection. All the S. aureus isolates were further subjected to susceptibility testing to oxacillin and detection of mecA gene for methicillin resistance. Out of 291 samples, 42 (14.43%) showed contamination of S. aureus. Prevalence of S. aureus contamination was higher in cow milk (15.68%) than buffalo milk (11.49%). Only, three (1.03%) samples (one from buffalo and two from cow) were positive for MRSA. On SCC mec typing, all the MRSA positive isolates belonged to SCC mec type V, which is characteristic of Community Associated-MRSA (CA-MRSA). One isolate was also positive for pvl gene. PFGE showed that all the four isolates were closely related to each other. The results show that MRSA arepresent in food of animal origin and has potential to spread through it.
