Use of continuous glucose monitoring in pediatric gastroenterology allows for personalized nutrition support care – Potential for collaboration between pediatric endocrinologists and gastroenterologists
Authors: Hitchcock Kathryn , Oliveira Stephanie
Published: September 2023

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices have been approved for the management of patients with diabetes mellitus. Some of the brands available almost completely eliminate the need for finger pricks. We aim to describe our experience with the use of CGM in two patients followed in the gastroenterology clinic due to diseases associated with hypoglycemia and how the information obtained from the devices improved care and outcomes. Data were continuously reviewed through the CGM device remote monitoring system and influenced clinical decisions related to nutrition support. CGMs are now part of standard care for patients with diabetes mellitus. The benefits of these devices and how they can improve the care of patients with disorders typically managed by the gastroenterologist need to be explored. In particular, patients with glycogen storage disorders, fatty acid oxidation defects, and ketotic hypoglycemia can benefit from GCM utilization, allowing for optimal and personalized nutritional care.

Authors: Danilova E. A. , Shchanina E. V.
Published: September 2023

Тhe article discusses approaches to the interpretation and the content of bullying, defines its types and distinguishes the forms of direct and indirect bullying. A comparative analysis of the results of domestic and foreign studies has revealed the spread scale of the bullying phenomenon in modern society, which causes the development of destructive socialization processes. It is emphasized that regular aggressive behavior towards one or a group of persons is a global problem, that is common for all countries of the world. The authors focus on the phenomenon of bullying in the socio-demographic groups of children and youth, which are among the most vulnerable in terms of socialization processes. At the same time, the consequences of bullying for its participants may be not only the deterioration of the physical and mental health of the younger generation, but also a lower socio-economic status in the stratification structure of society. In conclusion, the article concludes that in modern conditions it is necessary to actively develop and implement relevant initiatives of social institutions, which can serve as the basis for the formation of a legislative framework and state programs for the prevention and counteraction of bullying. Consequently, such initiatives will contribute to the formation of a healthy generation.

Authors: Kovalev V. V. , Dyatlov A. V.
Published: September 2023

The article is devoted to the consequences’ study of the managerial, management tools’ use in the social institutions of science, education, and health care. The study purpose is to substantiate the thesis that managerialism is a kind of a new ideology. To achieve the presented goal, methodological tools based on D. North’s neoinstitutional theory were used. The study revealed that managerialism as an efficiency ideology is based on institutional rules accepted by the state, it is applied considering informal restrictions established in society (values, attitudes, stereotypes, behavioral patterns, etc.) and relies on the Russian bureaucracy, which is the main beneficiary of the managerialist ideology. The negative consequences of managerialism are manifested as an increase in imitative practices; a decline in the level of employees’ professionalism of scientific, health care and educational organizations; a loss of the social purpose of social institutions, and the misuse of state resources.

Published: September 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the tools and mechanisms’ effectiveness for supporting small cities in Russian Federation. The topic relevance is due to the negative trends in the development of such cities and the need to improve the approach to the formation of measures to ensure the stability of their functioning. The aim is to substantiate the use of different models to support the sustainable development of small cities. Methods of monographic, comparative, economic and statistical analysis are used in the work. According to the study results of tools for supporting small cities in Russia and in the Central Chernozem Region, a conclusion was made about their low efficiency, weak use of regional, municipal and public measures. The necessity of systematic and integrated approaches to solving the problem of increasing sustainability is argued. Within the framework of these approaches, it is proposed to systematize tools and mechanisms to support the development of small cities, taking into account their key competencies by levels (federal, regional, municipal, public) and types of problems. As a result, the visualized tools in the form of a matrix are the basis for the formation of various models for supporting the sustainable development of small cities, taking into account the interests of target audiences. The practical significance of the study lies in the possibility of using proposals for designing programs and projects for small cities’ development.
Water-assisted generation of catalytic interface: The case of interfacial Pt-FeOx(OH)y sites active in preferential carbon monoxide oxidation

Published: September 2023

The surface of supported heterogeneous catalysts often contains adsorbed water and hydroxyl groups even when water is not directly added to the reaction stream. Nonetheless, the reactivity of adsorbed water and hydroxyl groups is rarely considered. We demonstrate that water and hydroxyl groups can not only directly participate in the catalytic oxidation processes but are also able to generate and stabilize the catalytically active metal-oxide interface. We show that the reduction of Pt-Fe-supported catalysts with hydrogen in the presence of adsorbed water or steam allows for achieving one of the highest preferential carbon monoxide oxidation activities at ambient temperature. These conditions create active iron-associated hydroxyl groups next to platinum nanoparticles with enhanced reactivity towards carbon mon-oxide oxidation. Density functional theory calculations suggest that hydroxylation of oxidic iron species stabilizes the FeOx(OH)y/Pt interface, via strong metal-support interaction, which is confirmed by chemisorption measurements. Kinetic experiments, including those with 18O-labeled water, in combination with operando infrared spectroscopy, show that water and hydroxyl groups directly participate in preferential carbon monoxide oxidation. A quantitative correlation between the catalytic activity of Pt-FeOx(OH)y/γ-Al2O3 catalysts and the Fe2+ concentration, obtained using operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy, shows that the number of active Fe2+ sites and the carbon monoxide oxidation rate per active site can be significantly increased by water-assisted pretreatment with hydrogen. This work provides a new example of positive role of strong metal-support interaction for the design of more active catalysts.

School-Based Teacher Professional Development Framework (SBTPDF): A Blueprint for School Principals in Nigeria
Authors: Sasere Oluwasola Babatunde , Makhasane Sekitla Daniel
Published: September 2023

There is a growing body of knowledge on effective Teacher Professional Development (TPD), with a consensus that skews in favour of decentralised, school-based and teacher-centred approach to TPD as opposed to the centralised, traditional and top-down approach. On the contrary, developing countries such as Nigeria still practise a centralised education system where traditional top-down TPD remains the norm, with the attendant consequence of professionally deficient teachers in the classroom. This situation has left a deficiency in centralised district/cluster-based teacher development. This study explored teachers’ and school administrators’ perceptions on the existing effectiveness TPD, with a view to developing a school-based TPD framework that caters for teachers’ professional needs. The study was a qualitative multiple-case study informed by the interpretivist paradigm. The study used, as its lenses, two complementary theories: Distributed Leadership Theory (DLT) and Adult Learning Theory (ALT). Three schools were selected using the purposive sampling technique. Four participants were selected from each school using a combination of purposive and snowball techniques. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analysed using the Thematic Analysis (TA) procedure. The findings revealed that one-size-fit-all centralised schools cluster TPD no longer meet the professional needs of teachers. The result also showed that participants preferred school-based teachers’ professional development to centralised approach. Hence, the study proposed a data-informed and theory-driven model known as School-Based Teacher Professional Development Framework (SBTPDF) as a blue-print for the implementation of school-based TPD for school administrators.

The purpose of the research is to assess the vital state of woody plants and study the features of the accumulation and distribution of cadmium (Cd) in the underground and aboveground organs of the small-leaved linden (Tilia cordata Mill.) under conditions of pollution of the Sterlitamak industrial center and in the conditional control zone. It was established that in the impact zone of the Sterlitamak industrial center the relative vitality of small-leaved linden trees is «weakened» (Ln=72.75%), and in the conditional control zone – «healthy» (Ln=88.25%). In the contaminated zone in the upper soil layer of 0‑10 cm, the saturation with absorbing linden roots was 32.42 ± 1.52 g/m2, at a depth of 10‑20 cm – 52.34 ± 2.50 g/m2, and at a depth of 20‑30 cm – 31.30 ± 3.21 g/m2. In the conditional control zone, a similar pattern is noted: in the upper soil layer of 0‑10 cm, the saturation with absorbing roots was 55.53 ± 2.52 g/m2, at a depth of 10‑20 cm – 69.34 ± 4.62 g/m2. Technogenic Cd accumulates in the upper soil layers of 0‑10 (20) cm, which leads to a decrease in the proportion of absorbing roots. The coefficients of biological absorption (0.71) and accumulation (1.30) of Cd in linden roots under conditions of environmental pollution were calculated. It was shown that according to the content of Cd in the organs of linden, the following series is formed (in descending order): roots>branches>leaves. A decrease in Cd entry into the above-ground organs of linden was revealed, which indicates that the root system performs a barrier function in relation to pollutants. Linden plantations successfully grow in conditions of industrial pollution and generally perform environmental stabilizing functions.

The purpose of the study is to carry out a preliminary selection and genetic assessment of the plus pine trees based on the results of testing their semi-plus offspring of the first generation. The safety of test cultures is 57.5%. The research covered 73 families of half-sibs, the total sample was 5,553 trees. It was found that in terms of height, more than half of the families (56.2%) had an excess over the control. However, only 28.8% of families were significantly higher than the control, the breeding effect of which was within 6.0%. The average trunk diameter of these families exceeded the control by 3.9%. Of these families, less than a quarter (23.8%) significantly exceeded the control value by 14.9%. As a result, 5 families (1k, 13k, 42, 38, 3k) were classified as the most productive. When assessing the sanitary condition of half-siblings, 2 families (51k and 16k) were classified as weakened, and the remaining families were classified as healthy. When assessing qualitative characteristics, clustering was carried out, with the help of which the studied families were divided into 3 main groups. The weakened families were united into a separate cluster. According to the results of score assessments, the trees of these families had poor trunk quality and weak stability. The second and third clusters are formed from families with high average grades and good condition. However, the families of the third cluster, according to the results of ball scores, are the most stable, differ in greater straightness and dense bifurcation. It was found that according to the results of a comprehensive selection and genetic assessment of the offspring of P. sylvestris plus trees of the first generation, 6.9% of families (1k, 13k, 42, 38, 3k) were classified as promising.

The analysis of the introduction and selection work with garden roses carried out in the Stavropol Botanical Garden is presented. The study of decorative and economic and biological features of garden roses allows us to reveal the potential of cultivars for further use in the practice of gardening, landscape design and breeding. The task of our research included: the study and selection of garden roses, taking into account adaptability and plasticity in the corresponding agro-climatic zones of Stavropol and the creation on their basis of new domestic cultivars of highly ornamental, with repair, long flowering and resistant to fungal diseases. To achieve this goal, the method of spontaneous somatic mutations and the method of intervarietal hybridization were used. Two cultivars of Yanka and Pearl of the Caucasus, obtained by spontaneous mutagenesis have adapted well, bloom profusely, which indicates the success of the introduction and the prospects for their use. In 2017 patents and copyright certificates were obtained for cultivars resulting from kidney mutations. During intersort hybridization, the cultivars of roses of the floribunda group Erfordia and Lion’s Rose, which are close in origin, differ little morphologically, tie fruits well with free pollination, have high decorative, repair, and resistance to mycoses, were involved in the breeding process. Both cultivars were included as maternal and paternal plants. The cultivar Erfordia, taken as a mother plant, when pollinated with pollen of the Lion’s Rose cultivar, tied hybrid fruits by 100%, and when pollinated with the Lion’s Rose cultivaris with pollen of the Erfordia cultivars, the fruits tied only by 60%. 104 hybrid seedlings were obtained from crossing two combinations, from which 7 valuable decorative hybrid seedlings were selected. The selected hybrid seedlings were vegetatively propagated on the rootstock of the dog rose (R. canina L.) and underwent primary cultivar evaluation.
The Prostheticity of the Network. Humanities and Scientometrically-Born Cyborgs
Authors:   Nicolaus Copernicus University, Hamarowski Bartosz
Published: September 2023

Although there have been many efforts in the last decade to reconcile the humanities and the information sciences, they have not radically changed the research standards prevailing in most humanistic departments. Against all appearances, the abrupt opening to quantitative methods in the digital humanities still has the character of a minority avant-garde movement. The article looks at the scientometric tradition, largely forgotten by the humanities, which may prove to be another interface bringing the two academic cultures back together. An account of scientometric networks highlights the advantages and disadvantages of this orientation. The broader implications regarding the use of visual networks in the humanities are framed by the category of prostheticity, which aims to encapsulate their ambivalent status as both substitutes and cognitive enhancers.

Background/Aim: Previous studies have yielded conflicting clinical, psychological, and functional outcomes in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This study aimed to more precisely evaluate the clinical outcomes, mid-term general physical and psychological health status, functional abilities, and improvements in patients’ quality-of-life undergoing TKA. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 25 female patients older than 55 years who underwent unilateral TKA due to osteoarthritis (OA). The Five Repetition Sit-to-Stand Test (5STS), Stair-Climbing Test (SCT), 6-Minute Walking Test (6MWT), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK), and Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) scores of the patients were evaluated using means. Meanwhile, the Lower Limb Length (LLL), Navicular Drop Test (NDT), Proprioception Assessment, Foot Posture Index (FPI-6), Foot Function Index (FFI), Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS), Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), and Oxford Knee Score (OKS) were evaluated by comparing the operated (OP) sides that underwent TKA with the non-operated (NONOP) sides diagnosed with OA. Results: The study found that LLL (P=0.001), abduction/adduction forefoot on rearfoot (ABD) (P=0.017), and T.FPI-6 (P=0.014) in the FPI-6 parameters, as well as KOOS (P<0.001), OKS (P<0.001), LEFS (P<0.001), and FFI (P<0.001) results, were significantly in favor of the OP limb. Besides some parameters in FPI-6, no significant difference was found between the OP and NONOP extremities in terms of prone and supine proprioception values (P>0.05). Conclusion: Overall, it was found that TKA plays a crucial role in recovery and regaining functional skills. Including preoperative evaluations with a control group and patients of both sexes in future studies and examining the relationships between the conducted tests and scales may contribute to better evaluating the results.

Published: September 2023

Aim: We present a case of autoimmune myopathy observed in a patient who developed intolerance to intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), which is used in the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Case: Intravesical BCG, which is used for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, probably effects by increasing autoimmunity in the bladder. This increased autoimmunity sometimes causes local or systemic reactions. In this case report, we would like to present a 61-year-old male patient who developed intolerance while taking the first dose of maintenance BCG, and then on-going treatment was stopped. The patient had convulsive painful cramps and muscle twitches in the left quadriceps femoris region one month later BCG intolerance. When the patient’s anamnesis, electromyography (EMG) results, elevated Creatine Kinase value and other laboratory data were evaluated together, BCG triggered autoimmune myopathy was considered. Therefore, steroid treatment was started and the patient recovered seven weeks later. This is a rare case of autoimmune myopathy in a patient who received intravesical BCG therapy for a bladder tumor. Conclusion: The case of BCG-associated autoimmune myopathy is extremely rare. When this situation is suspected, it is beneficial to start steroid treatment without delay.

Esta contribución se enfoca en la Campaña de Alfabetización de Adultos liderada por la Unión Nacional de Periodistas (UNP) y la Liga de Enseñanza de Analfabetos (Grupo LEA), entre 1944 y 1950. Examina la campaña como parte de los procesos de culturización y construcción de ciudadanos en la década de 1940. Lectura, escritura, nociones de cálculo, prácticas cívicas y el castellano como lengua nacional fueron algunos conocimientos y valores que promovió la campaña durante sus cursos. Esos saberes debían crear un nuevo sujeto civilizado, digno de ser incorporado a la nación y a la comunidad política de ciudadanos.
المنظور التداولي في صناعة المصطلح في معجم طه عبد الرحمن
Authors: همام محمد
Published: September 2023

يعمل هذا البحث على رصد المنهجية الاصطلاحية التي تميز المشروع العلمي لطه عبد الرحمن، وإبراز الخصوصية اللسانية للمفاهيم التي يوظفها المشروع، من خلال الوقوف على مرجعيتها الفكرية، وعلى اختيارها المنهجي التداولي؛ من حيث المعايير، والآليات، والتقنيات، المعتمدة في وضع المصطلح وفي استثماره. كما يرصد البحث الترابط الوثيق بين الصناعة المصطلحية في مشروع طه وبين تعليلاتها المعرفية، وما يفتحه ذلك الترابط من أفق أخلاقي. محاولًا تقديم إحاطة شاملة بمعايير، وآليات، وتقنيات الصناعة المصطلحية؛ من خلال الوقوف على معايير: القرب، والانتساب، والتراكم، والتخلق، والتفعيل... وعلى آليات: التجسير، والإبدال، والحذف، والإضافة، والقلب ... وما يصحب مطلب توظيف تلك الآلية من عمليات تقنية أخرى. ويخلص البحث إلى أن استيعاب مشروع طه العلمي يقتضي الإمساك بمنهجية صناعته الاصطلاحية في مختلف مستوياتها، وأن ما يكتنف هذه المنهجية من تعقيد لغوي لا يعود إلى ضبابيتها بقدر ما يجد تبريره في كونها استجابة لضرورة إنتاج خطاب فلسفي وفكري متحرر من تحيزات المصطلحات والمفاهيم الواردة على المجال التداولي العربي الإسلامي. كما أنها من مستلزمات الإبداع الفلسفي الفكري لحل مشكلاتنا المعاصرة.
عقود نقل التكنولوجيا كأداة للترويج السياسي
Authors: اليوسف عمر
Published: September 2023

غالبًا ما يُعالج موضوع عقود نقل التكنولوجيا من وجهة نظر الدولة المستورِدة للتكنولوجيا كوسيلة مُشبعةٍ بالدعاية السياسية لتحقيق التطور الاقتصادي المرغوب. ما قد يجعل العقد غير قادر على تحقيق الغايات المرجوة منه، المتمثلة في الوصول إلى مستوىً تكنولوجي مكافئ لمستوى المُوَرِّد، دون التغافل عمّا يمكن أن يترتب عن ذلك من تكاليف باهظة قد تتحملها الأجيال اللاحقة. وتهدف هذه الدراسة إلى توضيح وجهة نظر المُوَرِّد للتكنولوجيا في محل العقد وتوضيح الأسباب السياسية والاقتصادية والقانونية لعدم نجاح الكثير من هذه العقود، وهو ما من شأنه أن يمنح لواقع هذه العقود رؤية أكثر شمولًا وواقعية، لعلها تسهم في إنجاحها مستقبلًا. لمناقشة إشكالية إخراج عقد نقل التكنولوجيا من إطاره القانوني وإدخاله في الترويج السياسي، في حالتي سوريا ومصر، يتبع البحث المنهج المقارن التقليدي في مقارنة السلوك القانوني والسياسي لكل من طرفي العقد على أساس الفعل ورد الفعل، بتحليل ودراسة بعض عقود نقل التكنولوجيا التي جرى -أو كان من المفترض أن يجري- تنفيذها في سوريا ومصر منذ خمسينيات القرن الماضي. ويخلص إلى البحث نتائج من أهمها: إنّ استخدام العقد كدعاية سياسية يؤدي إلى فشل نقل التكنولوجيا والتطور الاقتصادي، وأن شرط مراعاة العقد لمصالح الطرفين يقتضي تحقيق المنفعة المتبادلة، سواء كانت تعبيرًا عن كمال معنوي بالنسبة إلى المورد أو كوسيلة للتطور الاقتصادي بالنسبة إلى المستورد.
ثورة البينية
Authors: وعكي سفيان
Published: September 2023

غالبًا ما توصف الأبحاث البينية الحديثة بأنها إضفاءُ بعض التغييرات المهمة على بنية المؤسسات البحثية وأهدافها. فقد وسمت، أحيانًا، بأنها نوع من الثورة العلمية الكُونِية***. لذلك، ستُحلل هذه الورقة التناظر بين البينية والثورة العلمية، كما ستقترح أن السبيل الذي شُجعت به البينية تبدو مماثلة للكيفية التي وصفت بها وعورضت بها البراديغمات الجديدة في بعض فترات تحولات الثورة العلمية. ومع ذلك، وعلى النقيض مما حدث إبان بعض الثورات العلمية، لا يبدو أن الخطاب الذي يروج للبينية مصحوب بتوافق صلب حول ماهية البينية في الواقع. وأخيرًا، يمكن تعريف البينية الحديثة بوصفها مرحلة "ما قبل البراديغم"، وذلك في سياق أن الحديث نفسَه الذي يشجع البينية يعتبر عقبة محتملة في طريق نضجها.

Published: September 2023

Ni–Sn powder alloys with a nickel content from 24.4 to 78.5 at.% and from 30.6 to 55.1 at.%, respectively, were synthesized chemically and electrochemically for the use as catalysts for the hydrogen electrochemical reduction (HER) in alkali solution. It was established that the catalytically active surface area of chemically synthesized powders was larger in comparison with electrochemically obtained ones. Ni24.4Sn75.6 powder alloy has the largest surface area. It was found that catalytic properties of chemically synthesized powders increased in the row Ni24.4Sn75.6 < Ni78.5Sn21.5 < Ni. Electrochem ically obtained alloys are inefficient as HER catalysts. It was found that Ni24.4Sn75.6 alloy is characterized by the greater re tention of catalytically active surface area during exploitation in alkali solution in comparison with Ni and Ni78.5Sn21.5 alloy.

Various adamantane derivatives were obtained by the condensation of rimantadine with substituted hydroxy-benzaldehydes, esters and ethers based on them, as well as 1,2-azole-3-carbaldehydes, followed by reduction. Further acylation of derivatives with active amino and hydroxy groups yielded compounds containing two 1,2-azole fragments in one molecule.

Published: September 2023

Fetal Growth Restriction (FGR) or Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR) is one of the complications in pregnancy that is quite common, especially in developing countries, which is one of the contributors to neonatal mortality and morbidity rates. This literature review aims to provide related information, so that proper diagnosis and management can be carried out to reduce fetal morbidity and mortality rates. We searched from online databases and used review articles, research, guidelines from professional organizations, such as POGI from Indonesia, ACOG from the USA, and RCOG from the UK. Risk factor assessment and examination of fundal height can be the first steps in diagnosing IUGR. If suspicion is found, ultrasound (USG) and Doppler velocimetry can be performed. IUGR management mostly works in influencing the vasodilation of the placenta as the most common cause of IUGR events. Fetal Growth Restriction can be diagnosed immediately by screening for risk factors in pregnant women.

Coral reefs are typical tropical ecosystems that have an important role but are vulnerable to damage. Corals need a long time to recover. One effort to accelerate the growth rate of coral reefs is coral transplantation. This research was conducted from June to July 2022. The research location was on Tidung Island, Thousand Islands Regency, DKI Jakarta. The results showed that the physico-chemical conditions of the waters in general were still within the range of quality standards for marine biota, especially for coral reef ecosystems. the recorded survival percentage was 100%. The growth of coral types tends to increase with height gains ranging from 27-40 cm/week. Coral growth rate ranged from 0,01-0,02 cm/week. Overall the coral transplantation of A. Formosa carried out on Tidung Island can be said to be successful because the water conditions on Tidung Island are suitable for supporting coral transplantation activities.

Protein S (PS) is Vitamin K dependant protein which plays a role in regulating the blood clotting process in the body. Protein S deficiency is explained as a condition characterized by reduced levels of protein S in the serum so that it makes the blood clot too easily. The purpose of this literature review is to give an update of protein S defficiency and the mechanism of protein s in hemostasis and atherosclerosis based on publish literature reference from various database. Protein S plays important role in hemostasis by regulating blood cloth process in the initiation phase of the extrinsic pathway as a TFPI cofactor or in the propagation phase, namely as an APC cofactor and independent activity of TFPIα and APC. Protein S deficiency is known to be associated with the occurrence of atherosclerosis via the Tyro3-Axl-Mer (TAM) receptor. The main clinical manifestations of the majority of patients with heterozygous mutations in the protein S (PROS1) gene are deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism that precipitate by VTE. Administration of anticoagulant drugs such as heparin in the form of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) or unfractionated heparin, vitamin K antagonists (VKA), namely warfarin, or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) can be selected as a management of protein S deficiency with VTE. Protein S has a central role in the coagulation prosses and its deficiency associated with atherosclerotic conditions.
