Variación del volumen de crédito productivo en el Ecuador y su incidencia en el PIB (2016-2021)
Authors: Abad-Correa John Dennis , Morocho-Pasaca Diana Paola
Published: September 2023

El presente estudio de investigación tiene como objetivo describir la variación del volumen de crédito productivo en el Ecuador y determinar su efecto en el PIB durante el periodo 2016-2021 a nivel nacional. Se desarrolló mediante un enfoque mixto y con una población de estudio que abarca todas las instituciones del sistema financiero que otorgan créditos productivos. La información se recopiló a través de las bases de datos de organismos competentes y fiables, como el Banco Central y la Superintendencia de Economía Popular y Solidaria, disponibles en sus páginas webs. Para el procesamiento de los datos fue necesario el uso de la estadística descriptiva y econométrica. Los principales resultados indican que el crédito productivo tuvo un incremento en la aceptación de los socios y clientes debido a la intervención del estado ecuatoriano mediante programas para reactivar la economía después de los incidentes provocados por la pandemia Covid-19. Seguidamente, se estableció un efecto directo entre las dos variables de estudio, por lo que, el aumento del crédito productivo representa una ampliación en el PIB. También, se proyectó un crecimiento para los años 2023 y 2024 del volumen de crédito productico en 9,42% y 13,02% respectivamente, y un aumento del PIB en 0,18% y 1,07%. Finalmente, se concluye de forma general que las colocaciones del crédito productivo aumentaron por las acciones del gobierno y que éstas sí contribuyen al crecimiento económico del Ecuador.
Innovación tecnológica en España: un análisis basado en patentes de la Oficina de Patentes y Marcas de Estados Unidos (1976 - 2019)
Authors: Medina-Moreno Lisset Rocío , López-García Santiago Manuel
Published: September 2023

Las empresas son actores relevantes en la investigación y el desarrollo y, cada vez más, en la innovación. El objetivo de este estudio es explorar la innovación tecnológica y el stock de patentes de las empresas españolas en el largo plazo. Se analiza específicamente esa área de innovación que las empresas protegen mediante el registro de patentes y que posiblemente genera el mayor valor añadido en la economía española. Se realizó un análisis basado en estadísticas descriptivas utilizando datos de la base de datos de la Oficina de Patentes y Marcas de los Estados Unidos (USPTO), que abarca más de 40 años, desde 1976 hasta 2019. El enfoque del artículo es identificar los altos acervos de conocimiento, medidos por patentes, en un camino específico dado que es una clave de un comportamiento empresarial de innovación inteligente. Los resultados clave incluyen que la propensión a patentar por parte de las empresas españolas sigue siendo baja. Encontramos que cuando consideramos todo el stock de patentes, las empresas más pequeñas aún mantienen un patrón de amplia dispersión y representan un volumen importante de innovaciones, sin embargo, las grandes empresas concentran muchas patentes en sectores muy concretos.

Authors: Ordoñez-Abril Daniel Yiwady , Aragón-Sánchez Nicolas , Ríos-Chávez José Julián , Rodríguez-Porto Robert
Published: September 2023

The different studies on behavior and decision-making in rural, agro-industrial, territorial, and development projects have gained importance in recent years, mainly due to the need to understand and comprehend those factors of human behavior that affect productive rural development. A systematic review of the literature on planned behavior in rural and agricultural project development  between 2008 and 2022 was carried out. The work was carried out by consulting scientific and academic databases such as ScienceDirect, ISI - Web of Science, Springer, Scielo, Emerald, and Scopus, completing the process with content analysis and systematization of articles in NVivo software. Three significant clusters of studies focused on development behavior, rural behavior, and productive development were identified. It was concluded that behavioral studies and their different analysis methods in the rural and agricultural fields aim to improve standard practices through participatory methodological proposals, which reflect on social behavior and the adoption and implementation of practical agricultural development models.

Published: September 2023

The aim of this study was to prepare an acrylate-based 3D printable resin that showed flexible properties after photopolymerizationand to characterize mechanical-physicochemical properties of polymerized objects. The experimental resincontained butyl acrylate (BA) and urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) in 7:3 weight ratio, phenylbis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide (BAPO) in 0.2 %w/w and ethyl 4-(dimethylamino) benzoate in 0.4 %w/w. Tensile strength measurementswere performed by Intron 5544. The curing times were 1, 2 and 5 min. FT-IR spectroscopy was used for the degreeof conversion (DC) measurements on the top and bottom surfaces of specimens. The tensile strength data of resinincreased with polymerization time. Behind this is a higher degree of polymerization, which is also supported by the conversiondata. A trial printing of experimental resin revealed that this matrix can be applied in an SLA 3D printer.
Mon wolof est meilleur que le tien
Authors: Drivaud Marie-Hélène
Published: September 2023

Lors d'une enquête réalisée auprès des employés d'une société nationale sénégalaise, localisée à Ziguinchor, les questions suivantes ont été posées : où le wolof est-il le mieux parlé ? Y a-t-il des personnes le parlant mieux que d'autres ? Les mêmes questions ont également été posées à propos des langues premières. L'analyse des réponses indique, pour le wolof d'une part, pour le joola d’autre part, quelle est la variété approuvée par le plus grand nombre et quels en sont les attributs. Le purisme exprimé unanimement contre l'émergence de variétés urbaines va de pair avec l'appréciation d’un wolof authentique ; cependant l'utilisation de ses formes allégées en ville ne gêne aucunement l'intercompréhension entre citadins, autochtones et immigrés du nord. Le joola, par contre, est plus apprécié sous sa variété la plus véhiculaire, c'est-à-dire la plus largement répandue et parlée en ville : le joola fooni.
Les attitudes linguistiques de quatre Peuls à Ziguinchor
Authors: Descamps-Hocquet Marguerite
Published: September 2023

Ce compte-rendu d'entretiens présente les déclarations et les prises de positions vis-à-vis du wolof et du peul de quatre hommes adultes : deux d'entre eux sont des salariés scolarisés, originaires de Haute Casamance ; les deux autres, l'un pêcheur, le second vendeur, ne sont pas scolarisés et viennent de la vallée du fleuve Sénégal. Ces hommes ont tous imposé leur langue en famille. Cependant, leurs opinions divergent : les deux poularophones scolarisés reconnaissent le rôle véhiculaire du wolof et regrettent qu’il n’en soit pas de même pour le peul ; mais ils ne s'engagent guère au-delà de la simple parole. Les deux autres sont conscients du fait que l'expansion du wolof est liée à l'urbanisation ; mais ils ne veulent pas en tirer les conséquences réelles pour le peul, estimant suffisant, pour sauver leur langue, de lui donner un statut de langue écrite.

On doit bien souligner un point de consensus : les autres langues de Ziguinchor sont à peine évoquées et sont implicitement minorées ; de plus, le statut du peul est toujours défini par rapport au seul wolof.
Forecasting Covid-19 Cases in Türkiye with the Help of LSTM
Authors: GOKGOZ Nurgul
Published: September 2023

Even though, it is thought that the pandemic has come to an end, the humanity is still under the danger of upcoming pandemics. In that sense, every effort to understand or predict the nature of an infectious disease is very precious since those efforts will provide experience for upcoming infectious disease epidemic/pandemic. Mathematical models provide a common way to analyze the nature of the pandemic. Apart from those mathematical models that mostly determine which variables should be used in the model to predict the nature of the epidemic and at which rate the disease will spread, deep learning models can also provide a fast and practical tool. Moreover, they can shed a light on which variables should be taken into account in the construction of a mathematical model. And also, deep learning methods give rapid results in the robust forecasting trends of the number of new patients that a country will deal with. In this work, a deep learning model that forecasts time series data using a long short-term memory (LSTM) network is used. The time series data used in this project is COVID-19 data taken from the Health Ministry of Republic of Türkiye. The weekend isolation and vaccination are not considered in the deep learning model. It is seen that even though the graph is consistent and similar to the graph of real number of patients, and LSTM is an effective tool to forecast new cases, those parameters, isolation and vaccination, must be taken into account in the construction of mathematical models and also in deep learning models as well.
Etlik Piliç Yetiştiriciliğinde Çevre Koşullarının İzlenmesine Yönelik Web Tabanlı Bir Uzak İzleme Sisteminin Geliştirilmesi
Authors: KARADÖL Hayrettin , ÇAYLI Ali , AKYÜZ Adil , ÜÇOK Serdar
Published: September 2023

Etlik piliç yetiştiriciliği artan talep doğrultusunda giderek yaygınlaşan üretim kollarından biri haline gelmiştir. Kümes ortamında ortaya çıkan Karbondioksit, Amonyak, Hidrojen Sülfür gibi zararlı gazlar, atmosfer, kanatlı sağlığı ve dolayısıyla insan sağlığı açısından önemli etkilere sahiptir. Bu durum, etlik piliç yetiştiriciliğinde süreçlerinin hassas kontrolünü ön plana çıkarmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, etlik piliç üretimi yapan 2 katlı bir çiftliğe ait kümes içi ortam koşulları (sıcaklık, bağıl nem, karbondioksit ve amonyak,) 2 yetiştirme dönemi süresince sensörlerle okunmuştur. Daha sonra geliştirilen bir web server uygulaması ile uzak izleme sistemi oluşturulmuştur. 1. üretim döneminde kümes ortamının başlangıç sıcaklığı ortalama 34 °C, bağıl nem değerleri ise % 50 seviyelerinde gerçekleşmiştir. İlerleyen haftalarda sıcaklık değerinin kademeli olarak düştüğü ve üretim döneminin son günlerinde minumun sıcaklık değerinin 20 °C, bağıl nem değerinin ise %70 seviyelerine ulaştığı belirlenmiştir. 2. üretim dönemi süresince 9. günden itibaren yapılan ölçümlerde, ortalama sıcaklık değerinin 25 °C, bağıl nem değerleri ise % 50 seviyelerinde gerçekleşmiştir. İlerleyen haftalarda sıcaklık değerinin kademeli olarak düştüğü ve üretim döneminin son günlerinde minumun sıcaklık değerinin 14 °C, bağıl nem değerinin ise %70 seviyelerine ulaştığı belirlenmiştir. CO2 değeri ise 1. üretim döneminde her iki kat için genel olarak kabul edilebilir sınır değer olan 3000 ppm değerini sadece 1. katta 2-3 saat süre ile aştığı diğer zamanlarda kabul edilebilir sınırlar içerisinde olduğu görülmüştür. Ancak havaların soğumasıyla birlikte 2. üretim döneminde 10-15. günlerde civcivlerin zemin katta 12 saatten daha fazla süreyle 3000 ppm’in üzerinde CO2’e maruz kaldığı, 1. katta ise birkaç saat süre ile 5000 ppm seviyelerine kadar çıktığı görülmüştür. Her iki üretim dönemi için NH3 değerinin son hafta içerisinde artış gösterme eğiliminde olduğu ve bu artışın maksimum 8 ppm değerine ulaştığı belirlenmiştir.

Published: September 2023

Purpose: Several elements are developed to quantitatively determine the contribution of different physical and chemical effects to tear breakup (TBU) in subjects with no self-reported history of dry eye (DED) or other ocular surface disease. Fluorescence (FL) imaging is employed to visualize the tear film (TF) and to determine TF thinning and potential TBU.
Methods: An automated system using a convolutional neural network that was trained and tested on more than 50,000 images from FL imaging experiments was deployed. The trained system could identify multiple TBU instances in each trial. Once identified, extracted FL intensity data was fit by mathematical models that included tangential flow along the eye, evaporation, osmosis, and FL intensity of emission from the TF. The mathematical models consisted of systems of ordinary differential equations for the aqueous layer thickness, osmolarity, and the FL concentration; they are a local approximation to TF thinning and/or TBU dynamics. FL intensity was computed using the resulting thickness and FL concentration. Optimizing the fit of the models to the FL intensity data determined the mechanism(s) driving each instance of TBU and produced an estimate of the osmolarity within TBU.
Results: Initial estimates for FL concentration and initial TF thickness agree well with prior results. Fits were produced for N = 467 instances of potential TBU from 15 non-DED subjects. The results showed a distribution of causes of TBU in these healthy subjects, as reflected by estimated flow and evaporation rates, which appear to agree well with previously published data. Final osmolarity depended strongly on the TBU mechanism, generally increasing with evaporation rate but complicated by the dependence on flow.
Conclusion: The method has the potential to classify TBU instances based on the mechanism and dynamics, and to estimate the final osmolarity at the TBU locus. The results suggest that it might be possible to classify individual subjects and provide a baseline for comparison and potential classification of DED subjects.
Ariel alado en el barrio. Veneraciones y usos del pasado en una biblioteca cultural
Authors: Fiebelkorn Ayelén
Published: September 2023

En 1927 un grupo de jóvenes fundó una biblioteca cultural en un barrio suburbano de la capital de la provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina. La trayectoria inicial de esta biblioteca informa una novedosa mixtura entre una sociabilidad barrial y otra de índole juvenil, vinculada al movimiento del reformismo universitario. Para analizarla, este trabajo reconstruye las prácticas culturales auspiciadas, destacando la “veneración” a distintos referentes ideológicos. Asimismo, por medio de un boletín de prensa institucional (1931-1932), examina ciertos usos del pasado motivados por acontecimientos contemporáneos ligados al golpe de estado y la guerra del Chaco. En última instancia, se interroga por la coexistencia entre las manifestaciones ideológicas del núcleo juvenil y la vigencia de un discurso de “apoliticidad” típico del asociacionismo barrial de entreguerras.

One of the cooperative systems in business that is commonly practiced is the profit-sharing cooperation system. In cooperation, it is common for two or more parties to enter into an agreement. One of the legal principles of the agreement is the principle of good faith as stated in Article 1338 paragraph (3) of the Civil Code which emphasizes the necessity for the parties to carry out the agreement in good faith. Through normative legal research with qualitative analysis techniques, a study is produced that the abuse of circumstances is one of the causes of the production sharing agreement being canceled. Misuse of conditions in a profit-sharing cooperation agreement is an act motivated by an imbalance between the parties to the agreement, with an indication that a strong party takes advantage of the position of a weak party.

BUILDING A CONCEPTUAL MODEL FOR INTERNAL AUDITING: THE PERSPECTIVE OF ABSORPTIVE CAPACITY THEORY
Authors: Almodallah Yaser Ibrahem , Shahimi Suhaily , Che Azmi Anna Azriati
Published: September 2023

The purpose of this paper is to present a conceptual model for internal auditing based on absorptive capacity theory. Internal auditing effectiveness is influenced by an organization's capacity to identify, assimilate, and apply new knowledge, according to the model. It has been determined that absorptive capacity is positively associated with innovation, performance, and competitiveness, making it a central concept in the literature of organisational learning. This study contends that internal audit functions contribute significantly to an organization's absorptive capacity by providing valuable knowledge, expertise, and perspective on internal control systems, risk management, and governance. An organisation can identify and learn from internal and external knowledge sources, including best practises, regulations, and industry developments, if its internal audit function is proactive and provides value-added services. In addition, a well-aligned internal audit function with the strategic objectives and culture of the organisation can facilitate the assimilation and application of new knowledge. The model suggests that internal audit functions can be improved by employing a risk-based approach that focuses on the organization's most significant risks and opportunities. This strategy can assist internal auditors in identifying and prioritising areas where new knowledge is required and in delivering more targeted and pertinent services. In addition, the model proposes that internal audit functions can be improved by leveraging digital technologies, such as data analytics and information technology, which can assist internal auditors in accessing and processing large quantities of data and delivering more efficient and effective services. This paper emphasises the significance of absorptive capacity for internal auditing effectiveness and provides a conceptual model that can guide the development of proactive and value-added internal audit functions. Practitioners, researchers, and policymakers interested in enhancing the performance and competitiveness of organisations through internal auditing may find the proposed model valuable.

Authors: Rofie Mohamad Khadafi , Mustaffa Nurakmal Ahmad , Zulkiflli Mayram , Ismail Nor Hanani , Zulkifli Malina , Abd. Kadir Amirul Haziq
Published: September 2023

This paper has two main purposes. First, to analyze the views of scholars regarding the principles of 'amal soleh. Second, to formulate the principles of 'amal soleh in Islamic work ethics. Islam is a holistic religion. It covers all aspects of life, including work morals. Although ethics and morals are similar, they are very different in essence. In this paper, the term ethics is used because it is a guiding term in every work organization. The term work ethics is not found in the Qur'an, but 'amal soleh is analogous to work ethics. Thus, the principle of 'amal soleh can be discussed as a principle of Islamic work ethics. The question is, how do scholars view the principles of 'amal soleh? Next, how can the principles of 'amal soleh be discussed in the context of Islamic work ethics? This paper aims to answer both questions through content analysis of some literature. For the first question, this paper found 10 elements related to 'amal soleh. For the second question, this paper concluded 10 elements of 'amal soleh in the context of Islamic work ethics.

Authors: Mohammad Wan Moharani , Muhamad Saad Nurhasma , Ismail Muhammad Marwan
Published: September 2023

Expression of feelings can be found in a writer’s literary works. As a result, the expression of feelings or emotions is common in literary works. The translation of emotional aspects in literary works requires a great deal of effort and careful observation in order to convey the original author's meanings to the target language. Majdulin, a novel by Mustafa Lufti al-Manfaluti, a well-known modern Arab literary writer, manages to present the reader with a variety of emotional aspects. In his literary works, Al-Manfaluti is noted for expressing sadness. This article aims to analyze the Malay translation of the sadness elements found in the novel. This article is based on a qualitative study, descriptive and comparative analysis. The study's samples are selected texts from the Malay translation of Majdulin that are related to sadness. This article benefits from the perspective of muslim scholars on sadness, as well as the translation procedures of Vinay & Darbelnet. It is found that different translation procedures can be seen in the translation of texts related to sadness in this novel. It is hoped that literary translations use such translation procedures, especially when dealing with the aspect of sadness.

Due to COVID-19, the education mode has shifted from face-to-face to online learning. This is to decrease close contact with others to protect the university students' and staffs’ health. There are two types of online learning which are simultaneous delivery and asynchronous delivery of teaching and learning. This study aims to investigate the impact of online learning in education during pandemic COVID-19 including the advantages and disadvantages of online learning among university students around the world. Systematic review has been identified as the methodology of this study whereby 25 articles were reviewed and analysed. The articles selected are published in year 2020 until 2021 while the content are based on keywords related to the advantages, disadvantages and effectiveness of online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Findings of the review implicated that the online learning has advantages such as time flexibility, ease of to access online resources, studying at own pace and the students were able to understand the learning content easily with multimedia elements. Meanwhile, the disadvantages were technical issues such as internet access problems, lack of interaction between the teachers and students, easy distraction, insufficient devices and high expenditure on purchasing data plans. As conclusion, the online learning has given more positive impacts to all university students compared to negative impacts based on the reviewed from 25 studies which involved more than 13 countries. The positive impacts were related with the advantages of OL and vice versa. It is also found that Whats app has been approved as the most preferred OL tools that has been used by the university students during the pandemic time.

Acceptance of 21st century learning characteristics among Moral Education teachers in Tamil National Primary Schools (SJKT) in Kuala Muda District was found to be still at a low level, especially the 6C application. Therefore, this study aims to review the application of the concept 6C among Moral Education teachers at SJKT in Kuala Muda District. The design of this study uses a qualitative approach using purposive sampling. Questionnaire data was obtained from a questionnaire that was emailed in Google Forms to 6 selected study participants. Study participants can access the questionnaire through a link provided via Whatsapp. In addition to questionnaires, researchers also used observation methods, document analysis and transcription of conversations through voice chat. Data analysis shows that the application of the 6C concept among the study participants is at a moderate level. Only 3 study participants mastered the 6C competency skills at a good level and the remaining 3 people were still at a low level. Even so, the Ministry of Education still has room to improve the 6C application among Moral Education teachers at SJKT in Kuala Muda District through Professional Development Courses. Researchers have the opportunity to study the impact of training on the application of 6C.

This study evaluates the effect of crushed and cubed ice on the preservation of fat, ash, and moisture content of the Red Snapper and Indian Mackerel stored for seven days. The determination of fat, moisture, and ice storage content was determined at three days (0,4,7) throughout the storage period. Statistical analyses were carried out to indicate the significant difference in the effects of treatment days and physical characteristics of ice on the crude fat, ash, and moisture content. The fat and ash percentage decrease while the moisture content in both ice storage increases throughout the storage period. Red Snapper comprises 1.32% fat, 78.00% moisture, and 1.03% ash content, while Indian Mackerel is composed of 1.30% of fat, 72.50% moisture, and 1.06% ash content during the initial storage period. The fat content in both species starts to decrease during day four in both storages, where the highest deterioration of fat (42-43%) was found for both species kept in cubed ice. The moisture content results show an increase in the moisture content for both species, where the highest percentage (7-8%) was found in both species kept in cubed ice. The ash content decreased in both species kept in cubed ice (22.00 - 42.00%) throughout the storage period. The study suggested that crushed ice is one of the fish preservation options for preserving fish quality.
TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE MARINE PROTECTED AREA MANAGEMENT: PERSPECTIVE OF IN-DEPTH INTERVIEWS WITH SCIENTIST
Authors: Lim Darwinah Darwin , Osman Nor Hasni
Published: September 2023

Efforts to expand Marine Protected Areas (MPA) are very important to ensure continued generation of ocean resources and sources of income. The health and quality of marine ecosystems need to be preserved and restored to ensure that these marine ecosystems can continue to supply resources and services such as fisheries, tourism and recreation opportunities, as well as protection from disasters such as climate change, erosion and tsunamis. It should be emphasized that the protection of this marine area does not mean that access to coastal areas and oceans is closed and the implementation of any activity is completely prevented. On the other hand, control mechanisms will be applied to ensure low-impact socio-economic activities can be carried out sustainably and any uncontrolled development and use of resources can be monitored. This study examines the issues that influence the current planning of sustainability management in marine parks in an effort to expand the network of MPA while maintaining the sustainability of existing MPA. Qualitative methods are used in this study through in-depth interviews with scientists who are involved in marine park research with the Fisheries Department. The results of the study found that effective governance and strict enforcement of regulations can lead to the success of sustainable MPA management and subsequently able to increase the number of MPA. Therefore, there is an advocacy of improvement especially from a management perspective where the informants of this study suggest the concept of seascape management which is a management approach based on ecosystem services of marine areas. The responsibility for the sustainability of this MPA does not depend entirely on government institutions alone but requires the efforts and cooperation of various parties.

Published: September 2023

Tahfiz Integrated Curriculum (KBT) is one of the tahfiz education approaches applied in Malaysia. Tahfiz education now emphasizes learning that integrates tahfiz and academic lessons into one curriculum. The combination of Quranic, Ijtihadik and Encyclopaedic elements is the central core of Tahfiz Model Ulul Albab (TMUA), which was implemented as early as 2014 until now. Thus, the question arises regarding how effective and successful this curriculum produces Huffaz as planned. Accordingly, this paper will cover the Tahfiz Integrated Curriculum (KBT) and curriculum evaluation as well as curriculum evaluation models. Finally, some methods of integration and evaluation of the tahfiz integrated curriculum are also proposed to ensure tahfiz learning is effective. The implications of this study guide the authorities to formulate strategies to maximize the excellence of the huffaz.

The state of Kedah has many natural areas that have the potential to become tourist areas. Although there are many beautiful and fascinating areas, not much research has been done to popularize them, causing them to be less well-known and rarely visited by tourists, especially outside of Kedah. This study aims to identify the potential of agrotourism and explore the natural beauty of Tasik Gubir (Lake Gubir). This study used quantitative and qualitative methods. Data were obtained through questionnaires that were randomly distributed to 100 tourists who visited Tasik Gubir from 1 to 30 July 2022, as well as interviews with the tourists. This study revealed Tasik Gubir has two main attractions, namely freshwater fishing activities and food. In terms of freshwater fishing, there are two categories of participants. First, those who have a license and fish commercially. Next, tourists and locals who come to fish for leisure. Fishing activity is the main attraction for anglers because of the large number of fish due to the unpolluted lake. Tasik Gubir is not only famous for its natural beauty but has become a new attraction for tourists who enjoy freshwater fish dishes. Several stalls prepare fresh dishes from Tasik Gubir that are served hot with a variety of local cuisine. Therefore, it is suggested that the state government take the initiative to maintain the ecosystem and highlight more local activities and food around Tasik Gubir. This study contributes to increasing tourism activities in Kedah and further helps the local community, namely Sik, to generate their economy.

Aim to study the morphological features of the rats thyroid gland after application of a defect in their tibiae.
Material and methods. Sixty white mature male rats were divided into two groups. Group I intact animals, Group II rats subjected to a through defect in the proximal metaphysis of the tibiae. The experiment time-line was: 3, 10, 15, 24, and 45 days. The qualitative features of the thyroid gland structure were studied using light and electron microscopy; the quantitative features with histomorphometry.
Results. The large follicles lined with simple squamous epithelium on the periphery of the gland as well as large and medium-sized follicles lined with low simple cuboidal, less often squamous epithelium in the center were observed in rats of Group II on days 3, 10, 15 of the experiment. The colloid filled completely or most of the follicle; there were desquamated epitheliocytes and cells with signs of apoptosis. The height of the follicular epithelium of the thyroid gland was smaller than the values of the Group I by 8.44%, 5.52%, 3.86% and 5.53%, 3.70%, 3.25% from 3rd to 15th days; the area of nuclei of follicular cells by 5.22%, 4.93% from 3rd to 10th days and by 5.31% on 3rd day; nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio by 3.11%, 2.29%, 2.28% from 3rd to 15th days and by 4.63%, 3.01% from 3rd to 10th days in the central and peripheral parts of the gland respectively. On the 3rd day, electron-microscopically, thyrocytes were low cuboidal or flat shape, the nucleus had tortuous contours and accumulations of heterochromatin under the karyolemma and in the karyoplasm. The cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum were collapsed or had small slit-like spaces. Single lysosomes and secretory granules in the apical part of the cells and short microvilli were visualized.
Conclusion. The application of a defect in the tibiae of rats is accompanied by morphological changes in the thyroid gland from the 3rd to 15th days and then organ adapts to the trauma by the 24th and 45th days.

Aim to evaluate the correlation between the course of vertebral arteries and veins and the results of calculations of hemodynamic parameters during ultrasound with functional tests.
Material and methods. In the observation, 252 volunteers were examined using Samsung SonoAce R7 and GE Logiq F6 equipment. The hemodynamics was studied at the level of the second segment of the vertebral arteries and veins at rest, when turning, tilting and lifting the head. The results were processed using Microsoft Excel 2007 with subsequent statistical analysis.
Results. 504 vascular complexes were analyzed without taking into account the visualization side. When assessing the arteries, the highest maximum blood flow velocity was registered when lifting the head in women with a rectilinear course of the vessels. In the group of men with non-rectilinear course of vessels, the lowest average blood flow velocity was registered when tilting the head. The highest volume flow was recorded in case of non-rectilinear vascular course in women when lifting the head.
For vertebral veins, the highest indicators of maximum and minimum venous blood flow rates were observed in men with a rectilinear course of vessels when lifting the head. The highest values of the average flow velocity and volume flow were noted in men who had a rectilinear course of the vessels.
The maximum values of the calculated venous volume flow were registered in groups with rectilinear vascular course: in men up to 19.4214.85 ml/min. (Me 12.45 ml/min.), in women 18.52 15.30 ml/min. (Me 10.50 ml/min.).
Conclusion. The data obtained by the study contributes to improving the software and analysis of individual changes during patient examination, helps to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment and rehabilitation, as well as to analyze multifactorial models.
