DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION OF DOXORUBICIN HCL PRONIOSOMES BY-DESIGN OF EXPERIMENT
Authors: SRIKANTH  , Y. ANAND KUMAR , C. MALLIKARJUNA SETTY
Published: July 2019

Objective: The present research work was designed to formulate and optimize doxorubicin HCl proniosomes by design of experiment (DoE).

Methods: A 4-factor, 3-level Box-Behnken design was used to explain multiple linear regression analysis and contour 3D plot responses. The independent variables selected were tween 20, cholesterol, hydration volume and sonication time; dependent variables percentage entrapment efficiency (PEE), mean vesicle size (MVS). Based on the Box-Behnken design 29 trial runs were studied and optimized for PEE and MVS. Further "Model F-Value" was calculated to confirm the omission of insignificant terms from the full-model equation to derive a multiple linear regression analysis to predict the PEE and MVS of niosomes derived from proniosomes. 3D plots were constructed to show the influence of independent variables on dependent variables.

Results: PEE of doxorubicin HCl proniosomes was found to be in the range of 40.21-87.5%. The polynomial equation for PEE exhibited a good correlation coefficient (0.5524) and the "Model F-Value" of 7.41 implies the model is significant. P-values less than 0.0500 indicate model terms are significant. The MVS of doxorubicin HCl proniosomes was found to be in the range of 325.2 nm to 420.25 nm. The mathematical model generated for MVS (R2) was found to be significant with model F-value of 54.22. There is only a 0.01% chance that a "Model F-Value" this large could occur due to noise (P<0.0500) and R2 value of 0.9004.

Conclusion: The DoE of Box-Behnken design demonstrated the role of the derived equation, 3D plot in predicting the values of dependent variables for the preparation and optimization of doxorubicin HCl proniosomes. The results suggest that doxorubicin HCl proniosomes can act as a promising carrier.
Whose Story is it? Narrative Humility in Medicine and Literature
Authors: DasGupta Sayantani
Published: July 2019

I am on a panel. It is at a college, a conference, or a literary festival. It happens on almost every panel I am on; particularly when we are discussing representation and diversity in children’s literature – the importance for young people to see protagonists, families and story lines representing their own identities and their own lives. Someone – usually white, and/or straight, and/or cis-gendered -- raises their hand in the audience and tells us about a story they feel compelled to write, a story they love, a story about a protagonist unlike themselves. “Can I tell this story?” they ask, “Is it alright?”
City Limits
Authors: Bilger Alice
Published: July 2019

This essay explores the idea of city limits, real and metaphorical walls, and boundaries raised within and around the urban environment. The focus is on American urban epicentres, and by analysing two literary works, John Fante’s Los Angeles novel Ask the Dust and Lorraine Hansberry’s Chicago play A Raisin in the Sun, it interrogates what form the walls within those spaces might take, why they are raised, and what effects they have on the city’s inhabitants – especially the marginalised groups who tend to be either excluded, restricted or enclosed by them. In this essay, I suggest that boundaries are created or enforced as a result of a fear of loss of space and power within the urban environment which leads to the consistent marginalisation of the Other as exhibited in both texts. In other words, the essay will demonstrate that the physical and fiscal boundaries represented in the novel and play are masking a more complex set of boundaries of racial exclusion and hierarchies in place within the American urban space.
Across the Divide
Authors: Dowling Charlotte
Published: July 2019

In women’s memoirs of the Gulag and Soviet prison system, walls are not represented in the entirely negative way one might expect. Rather, the walls hold a paradoxical position in the texts. For, while they physically separate the women from their loved ones and their old lives, the walls become a platform for building friendships and starting up romantic liaisons by providing a means of communication between prisoners in different cells. The walls also offer the women some real protection from the sexual aggressors shown to dominate mixed spaces—and indeed, the walls of these cells are the known in a system where the unknown poses real danger.
“Sacred Duty”
Authors: Sahana Sheelalipi
Published: July 2019

Ismat Chughtai, an Indian writer in the 20th Century was influential in the Urdu literary scene for her role in furthering the women’s cause. This paper focuses on her translated short story “Sacred Duty” in which the sanctity of ‘secularism’ is questioned by addressing interfaith marriages in order to polarise religious orthodoxy of older generations with that of the flippancy of the youth. It unfurls the pseudo-fraternal form of coexistence of the middle and upper class ‘progressives’ that was practiced to appease their own sense of modernity. By contextualising this within the communal riots of post-partition India, a seeming anxiety is noticed within the newer generations in contending with their ‘duty’ to the nation and religion. Offsetting this against the postcolonial scholarship by Partha Chatterjee based on Benedict Anderson’s notion of an “imagined community,” this story remarks on the strength of that argument in view of the religious boundaries that consecrate such a nation. The married couple Samina and Tashar’s stance heralds a crucial question about the possibility of climbing over this wall drawn out by Hindus and Muslims and escaping this ‘community’ altogether. Through this analysis, the restricted nature of Indian secularism post-Independence is highlighted as propagating divisionist ideology.
Adjective Similes as Lexical Universals
Authors: Muzheika Irina A.
Published: July 2019

The article deals with adjective similes of some Slavonic, Baltic and German languages from the position of typology and linguistics of universals and is aimed at revealing common fixed expressions. This approach corresponds to modern tendency in phraseological researches being set at the end of the last century. Nowadays one of the main tasks of lexical typology is to study the plan of expression rather than the plan of content. The cognitive approach appears to be helpful in achieving this task as its application in typology is recognized as rather productive way of searching for content universals and for the analysis of human knowledge that effects the development of language itself. Our research covers similes of eight languages and this fact verifies conclusions about universals existence. Continuous sampling, descriptive, comparative and cognitive analysis methods are applied in the study. The main results of the study lie in the proof of lexical universals existence among adjective similes of eight languages.
Bilingual Education and the Problems of Ethnic and Linguistic Identity in the USSR and Modern Russia
Authors: Marusenko Mikhail A.
Published: July 2019

The article discusses the relationship of bilingual education with the problems of ethnic and language identification in the USSR and modern Russia. The concept of protecting the rights of national minorities includes an extensive range of linguistic rights and the right to education in minority languages. This right is protected by many international agreements and documents of international organizations and is considered to be an unconditional conquest of fighters for human rights. However, this ignores cases of inconsistencies in ethnic and linguistic identity, which are increasingly frequent in the modern world, and the right of citizens to free ethnic and linguistic self-determination. Planning in the field of bilingual education and teacher training requires objective information on the real number of people willing to study in minority languages, which can be obtained as a result of language monitoring and censuses.
Some of the Aspects of Bilingual Education in Modern Guatemala
Authors: Kotenyatkina Irina B. , Borzenkova Anastasia A. , Radovich Maria
Published: July 2019

The present article demonstrates the development of the concept of bilingual education in Guatemala, caused by the transition to a new type of society: the knowledge society, where the education is considered as the main principle of economic growth. The special attention is paid to the specific needs of indigenous children from the linguistic and cultural points of view, as well as to the fact that the languages spoken by the local population are not being used as a tool during the teaching process. The article points out that the intercultural communication, as a primary principle of bilingual education, allows to overcome difficult sociolingustic conditions and favours the processes of the personality formation, while offering the possibilities of shaping individuals having both Spanish and indigenous languages and cultures as a basis.
Transcultural Linguo-Conceptual Model of Globalization in a Regional Context
Authors: Lugovskaya Elena G.
Published: July 2019

The article proposes the approval of the term ‘transcultural’ purposiveness in the terminological definition ‘transcultural linguoconceptual globalization outline (construct)’. This terminological definition refers to the linguocultural socio-emergent formed in the conditions of multilingualism and multiculturalism (in particular Pridnestrovian region). The characteristic of this outline (construct) is presented, the main ways of its description are outlined; some methodological conditions for its analysis are indicated. The terminological difference between the terms ‘intercultural’, ‘cross-cultural’ and ‘transcultural’ reflects the direction of the millennium globalization processes. This difference is determined by the terminological specificity of those scientific knowledge spheres in which these terms are using as a general thing. Despite this, the author shows that the essence of globalization processes can be expressed through the construction of the regional (we mean the multilingual and multicultural regions) transcultural theoretical outline from the linguoconceptual point of view. This is possible if cognitivediscursive patterning operates. When describing the aimed transcultural linguoconceptual outline (construct), the author proposes to point up the interpretation of transculturation as a process of cultural convergence and confluence and an opposite one to ‘acculturation’ or ‘enculturation’. It has an assume prominence in assessing the suggested outline’s effectiveness in a pragmatic measurement and can point the cognitive-discursive sphere’s problem issues. A particular question relating to the issue of a pragmatic estimate of this outline implementation - the appraisal of the second and subsequent languages acquisition by aboriginal persons of multilingual regions - is considered to exemplify this thesis. The author notes that the functional-pragmatic and cognitive-communicative approaches came out of the linguistics anthropocentric paradigm. These approaches are in contrast to ethnic-oriented one. They accentuate the functioning of the language and configures itself as an instrument for transcultural communication in the transcultural world. These approaches allow bilingual to be an active participant in the intercultural communication and socialization.
Identity Discourse in Theoretical Works of Tatar Literary Critics at the Beginning of the XX Century
Authors: Ibragimov Marsel I. , Galimzyanova Elmera M.
Published: July 2019

The subject of the research is the identity discourse in literary works of Tatar literary figures at the beginning of the 20th century (G. Ibraghimov, G. Sagdie, G. Battala, N. Dumavie, G. Rakhim). The coexistence of Eastern and European literary terms and concepts, which indicates the reception of works by Russian and European scientists and the transformation of traditional views on literature, caused by Eastern poetics influence, was established in the works under study. The research was carried out in the context of the problem of identity that is relevant to contemporary literary criticism. For the first time, literary works of Tatar writers and scholars are considered as one of discursive practices in which the national identity of Tatar literature is manifested. It is revealed that the discourse of identity in the analyzed works is problematic in two aspects: civilization aspect (the problem of East and West) and national aspect (the problem of literary science as one of the factors of national construction).
Small Genres of Russian and Tatar Literature: Comparative Poetics
Authors: Khabibullina Alsu Z.
Published: July 2019

The article is devoted to the study of small genres of Russian and Tatar literature in the aspect of comparative poetics. It is stated that comparative poetics is based on a comparative method which is in its’ turn based on the idea of preservation of national literature originality, involved in a dialogue. The sphere of the uniqueness actualizes the category of genre, that is the problem of genres correlation, their possible correlation in cross-literal space. The factual basis - are the genres of fable and masal in works by I.A. Krylov and G. Tukai. Their history, some aspects of poetics and correlation in multilingual cultures are revealed. It is concluded that, Tukay in his collection of translations of “Pearls” (1909) was the founder of new genre form, which, on the one hand, was close to a Russian fable, on the other hand, took the features of the masal, as well as the Oriental Proverbs, nasihats and other genres associated with the tradition of rhymed prose.
Modelo predictivo de quiebra en empresas constructoras inscritas en el Minvu de Valparaíso”
Authors: Ríos Orrego Rosemary , Quezada Rojas Katherine Quezada Rojas , Tapia Valdés Antonio Tapia Valdés
Published: July 2019

La administración financiera es una de las funciones más importantes en la existencia de una entidad. Según Merton & Bodie (2003) esto ayuda a organizar la forma de asignar recursos, como también de un conjunto de modelos cuantitativos que ayuden en la evaluación de alternativas, toma de decisiones y la puesta en práctica de ellas. Hay empresas que no logran realizar esta función con efectividad, lo que provoca graves problemas de solvencia a corto y largo plazo; es por esto que Altman E. (2000) realiza un modelo con la finalidad de predecir quiebras, consiste en analizar razones financieras que permitan revelar la real situación de una entidad. El propósito de esta investigación es la comprobación de la efectividad del modelo predictivo de quiebra, esto mediante la contextualización de la vulnerabilidad de las empresas constructoras, siendo así entonces, la aplicación del modelo predictivo de quiebra, que permite a las empresas medir la probabilidad de fracaso y anticiparse a las consecuencias, asociándola al sector de la construcción, principalmente Registro nacional de Contratistas del MINVU de la Región de Valparaíso. Concluyendo que si bien este modelo ayuda a observar el estado de una empresa en el mercado, no es necesariamente la única forma de evaluar el riesgo

Lo público en contaduría pública. El caso colombiano
Authors: Ocampo González Jehily Zabdiel , Restrepo Quintero Katherine
Published: July 2019

La contaduría pública en Colombia es una profesión liberal que se encarga de procesos legitimadores de la información contable. Por ello se hace necesario aclarar cuál es la función en la práctica contable colombiana de conceptos tales como interés público, fe pública y confianza pública. Esto con el propósito de comprender la naturaleza del interés público en las prácticas sociales de la contabilidad en Colombia.En consecuencia, ante el panorama de la crisis generalizada de confianza, se presenta una aproximación de los conceptos antes mencionados con el objeto de comprenderlos en su esencia para luego interpretarlos en el contexto de la profesión contable en Colombia, pues los distintos escándalos de corrupción, crisis financieras y fraudes empresariales resaltan la necesidad de que los profesionales y estudiantes asuman un papel proactivo, que solo será posible en la medida en que éstos comprendan “lo público” desde la ética y la conciencia social.

Evolución de la banca en Costa Rica: Una breve descripción de sus orígenes hasta la actualidad
Authors: Azofeifa Céspedes Arturo
Published: July 2019

La banca, en términos generales, es uno de los sectores más importantes en la economía de un país, tanto en el sector privado como en el estatal. Eso se debe a que ejerce un control en las finanzas; a nivel macro, por medio de la promulgación de las políticas económicas de un país y, a nivel micro, ayudando al impulso de la economía desde varios frentes. Entre dichos frentes se encuentra la generación de empleo con buen nivel de salarios y su operativa natural de generar rendimientos al dinero de los ahorrantes y prestar ese dinero a los solicitantes. La banca se puede dividir en dos grandes partes: la banca estatal, que se subdivide en la Banca Central (gobierno) y la banca estatal comercial. Por otro lado, se encuentra la banca privada, que viene a competir con la banca estatal y genera un beneficio para los habitantes de un país.

Las peleas de gallos en la prensa escrita costarricense: un Análisis Crítico del Discurso en algunas noticias del diario La Nación S.A.
Authors: Rodríguez Aguilar Onésimo , Alpízar Lobo Natasha
Published: July 2019

El siguiente artículo se desprende de una investigación en curso, desarrollada desde la Escuela de Antropología de la Universidad de Costa Rica, titulada “¡Se muere gallo bueno! Jóvenes, galleras y gallos de pelea”. Este texto es la primera entrega de dicha investigación y se concentra en analizar la perspectiva de La Nación S.A. respecto a las peleas de gallos. Se recurrió al Análisis Crítico del Discurso, como herramienta metodológica, porque posibilita la visualización de ideas que parecieran emerger en La Nación S.A., con la intención de sensibilizar moralmente a sus lectores/as, al emplear diversas estrategias discursivas-valorativas, con un abordaje sensacionalista e irreflexivo. Así, se evidencia que este medio de comunicación precisa de este tipo de aproximaciones para mostrar la violencia en las peleas de gallos y ocultar la violencia cometida por su forma de exponer y analizar las dinámicas sociales.
Concepción de Estado en los discursos de Figueres Olsen: un modelo genérico de reforma
Authors: Soto Kiewit Luis Diego
Published: July 2019

El artículo analiza las alocuciones del expresidente de Costa Rica José María Figueres Olsen en sus discursos de 1 de Mayo ante la Asamblea Legislativa, con el fin de conocer su posición respecto de la transformación del Estado. Para ello se aplica la técnica de Análisis Crítico del Discurso. Se concluye que la idea de Estado sustentada por él está sostenida por estrategias de deslegitimación, legitimación y encubrimiento en la presentación de un ser y un deber ser del Estado. También se utiliza el Modelo Argumentativo de Toulmin para reconstruir los razonamientos y visualizar la forma en la cual se posicionó una denominada concepción genérica de Estado.
Desarrollo sostenible a la tica: geopolítica y ambiente en la Administración Figueres Olsen (1994-1998)

El presente artículo estudia, desde una perspectiva geopolítica decolonial, la variable ambiental en los discursos y acciones de la Administración liberacionista de José María Figueres Olsen (1994-1998) en Costa Rica, por medio del papel central asignado a un «desarrollo sostenible a la tica» durante su gobierno, convirtiéndolo en paradigma en sus discursos y acciones tanto internas como externas. Se demuestra como su uso se debe mayormente al peso geopolítico de las discusiones internacionales sobre la relación sociedad-naturaleza y a una continuidad del modelo economicista de uso de la naturaleza.
Ethical questions in children sexual victimization research
Authors: Kovco-Vukadin Irma
Published: July 2019

Ethics in the research with children has become a very important topic due to
an increasing number of research involving children resulting in an
increasing number of academic papers on this topic. Conducting social
research in the field of child sexual victimization presents double
vulnerability: firstly, it involves research with a vulnerable population,
and secondly, the topic itself is sensitive. This raises numerous ethical
questions and can result in researcher?s unwillingness to explore this
particular field. The aim of this paper is to answer the question of
specific ethical challenges in researching sexual victimization of children.
The specific questions addressed in the paper include the following: 1) Are
there any specific ethical guidelines for researching child sexual
victimization, and 2) What ethical questions are specifically addressed in
child sexual victimization research? The answers provided on the basis of
the analysis presented in the paper are: 1) There are no specific ethical
guidelines for conducting epidemiology research of child sexual
victimization, and 2) It is difficult to single out ethical questions
specific for this research area from available literature (only few authors
are addressing specific ethical issues in this type of victimization
research). Therefore, it is concluded that more attention should be focused
on ethical issues in epidemiologic research of child sexual victimization.
A comparison of patient experience, chair-side time, accuracy of dental arch measurements and costs of acquisition of dental models
Authors: Glisic Olja , Hoejbjerre Louise , Sonnesen Liselotte
Published: July 2019

Objective:

To compare patient experience, chairside time, dental arch distances, and costs of dental models derived from intraoral scans and alginate impressions in pre-orthodontic children and young adolescents.

Materials and Methods:

Fifty-nine children and young adolescents (9–15 years, mean: 12.70 years) had an intraoral scan and an alginate impression prior to orthodontic treatment. During the procedures, chairside time was registered in minutes and patient experience was assessed by a Visual Analogue Scale questionnaire. Four maxillary dental arch distances were measured on digital models, on plaster casts, and directly in the mouth (intraoral). The cost of each procedure was presented graphically. Differences between the two procedures were tested by paired t-test and general linear model.

Results:

Patient experience was statistically better during intraoral scan compared with alginate impression regarding comfort, gag reflex, breathing, smell/sound, taste/vibration, and all statements concerning anxiety (P < .05). No significant difference in chairside time between the two procedures was found. No statistically significant differences in dental arch distances between digital models and plaster casts were found, but dental arch distances measured intraorally differed significantly from both digital models and plaster casts (P < .05). Cost calculation showed that the digital procedure was 10.7 times more expensive than the conventional procedure initially and, that after 3.6 years, the two procedures were equal in cost.

Conclusions:

Children preferred intraoral scan rather than alginate impression. Chairside time was equal for the two procedures as were the measurements of maxillary dental arch distances. The two procedures were equal in cost at 3.6 years.
Gender peculiarities of heart rate variability and hemodynamic basis of students’ educational activity
Authors: Biryukova Ekaterina V. , Vasilyuk Nikolaj A. , Andrianov Vladimir V.
Published: July 2019

Aim of this study is to analyze gender peculiarities of physiological and psychophysical basis of students’ academic activity.
Materials and Methods. 32 medical students (16 men and 16 women, 19-22 years) were examined. Students were proposed an alternative method of a colloquium on normal physiology in the form of a computer test. The test consisted of 30 questions, time of testing was not limited. The test was considered to be done if the number of correct answers was 50% or more. Examination of students’ heart rhythm, hemodynamic, and psychological parameters was conducted before and immediately after the test. Cardio-intervalogram was recorded within 5 minutes using Varicard hardware-software complex. The Students t-test, Mann-Whitney analysis, Wilcoxon analysis were used to determine the significance of differences between parameters among and within groups of men and women. Relationships of the studied parameters were determined using Spearman’s method of rank correlation.
Results. It was demonstrated that fulfilment of  the test by men was associated with reduction of hemodynamic parameters, with reduction of parasympathetic component and activation of sympathetic suprasegmental and central mechanisms of regulation of heart rhythm. Women showed stability of hemodynamic parameters and increase in suprasegmental influences on the dynamics of heart rhythm with lower average values. In correlation analysis conjugated pairs were found with the two components being different psychophysiological and physiological parameters, time and effectiveness of fulfilment of the test. The total number of conjugated and stable parameters were higher in women than in men both before and after computer testing.
Conclusions. Gender peculiarities of hemodynamic  basis of academic activity of students were found. The described dynamics can be considered a manifestation of a higher stability and relatively lower mobility of regulatory mechanisms in women.

Published: July 2019

Аim. Тo evaluate the structural and functional condition of platelets as a cellular component of the hemostasis system in chronic generalized periodontitis of different severity, and to establish its role in the progression of the disease.
Materials and Мethods. Clinical studies included 83 patients (47 men and 36 women) with chronic generalized periodontitis, comparable in age and sex, divided into three groups according to the severity of the disease: the first group (n=21) – periodontitis of mild severity; the second group (n=36) – moderate degree of severity; the third group (n=26) – severe periodontitis. Methods of the study included evaluation of the structural and functional characteristics of periodontal tissues, general hygienic condition of the oral cavity, the severity of the inflammatory process according to index parameters; study of microcirculation of periodontal tissues, determination of the evidence of oxidative processes in saliva, blood plasma, platelets, study of lipid composition of platelets.
Results. In chronic generalized periodontitis, pathological changes in the lipid composition of platelet membranes (an increase in the percentage of lysophospholipids and free fatty acids) were associated with systemic activation of oxidative processes and of phospholipase enzyme systems, which was accompanied by an increase in their aggregation activity.The degree of increase in the activity of platelets was associated with the severity of microcirculatory disturbances in the periodontal tissues. The condition of the cellular component of the hemostasis system correlated with the severity of the pathological process in the periodontium. In severe degree of chronic periodontitis, structural and functional changes in platelets were maximal.
Conclusion. In chronic periodontitis, the systemic activation of oxidative processes leads to a modification of the lipid composition of platelet membranes, which contributes to increase in their aggregation activity playing an important role in the induction of hypercoagulation, microcirculation disturbances and progression of inflammation in the periodontal tissues.
General non-specific reactivity of an organism as a factor of individualization of de-mands, behavior and social activity of individual

Published: July 2019

Behavioral and social activity, being a component of the general human activity, depends on a number of individual combinations of genotype and phenotype, as well as on environmental conditions. With sufficient elaboration of the general aspects of the physiological mechanisms, systemic organization of the behavioral and social activity of an individual remains an open question of the objective conditionality of the expression and orientation of social activity by individual combination of actualized demands and the psycho-physiological preconditions for their formation.
Aim. To identify regularities of physiological individualization of formation of demands, of behavioral and social human activity.
Materials and Methods. The research was carried out with the participation of 78 men and women aged 18-22 years, students of the Crimean Federal University.
Results. As a result of a complex of experimental studies, the systemic organization of functional, psychophysiological, psychological and social mechanisms of the individual organization of behavioral and social activity of an individual was confirmed. It is determined that anxiety, neuropsychological reactivity, extraversion and neuroticism, as the main preсonditions for behavioral and social activity, are most pronounced in individuals characterized by a high level of general nonspecific reactivity of an organism. The role of the functional and psychophysiological status of the organism in the individualization of demands is substantiated. At the same time, the minimal intensity of actualization of basic demands is characteristic of individuals with a low level of general nonspecific reactivity of an organism. Connections between individual vectors of social activity and basic human demands are specified. The most significant, universal impact on various types of social activity is produced by safety demands, which are the basic human biological demands. The demands for self-realization determine behavioral, social, professional and economic activity of a person. Social and cognitive demands positively affect behavioral and social activity. An insignificant negative relationship is revealed between reproductive demands and social destructiveness.
Conclusion. The cumulative registration of physiological and psychological characteristics provides an opportunity to predict the extent and subject orientation of the individual social activity.
Comparative analysis of endovascular methods for treatment of acute lower limb ischemia
Authors: Kutsko Evgenij A.
Published: July 2019

Acute lower limb ischemia (ALLI) is defined as a sudden decrease in lower limb arterial perfusion, which lasts less than 14 days and threatens a limb viability. This condition is one of the most common emergencies in vascular surgery, requiring immediate diagnosis and treatment, because untimely revascularization of lower limb leads to high amputation rate and mortality in postoperative period.
Currently there exist many methods of lower limb revascularization, however, in fact, they all can be divided into two large groups: open, surgical, and endovascular treatment. The choice between them depends on many factors. Since introduction of Fogarty catheter, balloon thromboembolectomy became a «gold standard» in treatment for ALLI. Nevertheless, at the same time endovascular methods appeared, the first one being catheter-based thrombolysis (CBT). Since its appearance, CBT gradually improved with deeper understanding of indications for its use, improvement of the technique of intervention, appearance of different thrombolytic agents and instruments. Nowadays a number of international guidelines determine CBT as a first line treatment of most patients with ALLI.
Endovascular thrombectomy techniques appeared in the 90s of XX century as an attempt tocombine advantages of open surgery (rapid and, in ideal conditions, complete restoration of limb perfusion) and of endovascular intervention (minimal invasiveness). They include manual aspiration, rheolytic (hydrodynamic), rotational, aspiration thrombectomy and pharmacomechanical thrombolysis. According to numerous studies, these techniques demonstrate quite impressive results and, probably, in the near future one of them can become a new «gold standard» in treatment for ALLI.

Recently, local hemostatic agents (LHA) have become increasingly popular abroad and in our country. They act in a targeted way and can be used both in damage to large vessels and in diffuse bleeding. In the article, chemical nature, physical and chemical characteristics of materials and mechanisms of LHA activity are considered, directions of their improvement are shown. LHA are mostly classified by mechanism of action.
To date, the popular groups of hemostatic agents are «mucoadhesive agents» (chitosan, amylopectin) and «coagulation factors concentrators» (zeolites, kaolin). Other authors distinguish the group of «aggregation and adhesion stimulants» (collagen, cellulose). Here, representatives of these groups have common characteristics – very high porosity and hydration ability. Another group includes substances that «promote protein denaturation» (inorganic salts of metals, as well as salts of acrylic acid and its derivatives). Polyacrylates are the basis of adhesives with hemostatic activity. However, most modern LHA are complex drugs and it is just this group that is most promising. All means, from hemostatic sponges produced by Zelyonaya Dubrava (Russia) and Nycomed, Takeda (Austria, Norway), and to hemostatic materials of MedTrade manufacture (Great Britain), Etiguette and Z-Medica (USA), combine sorption and, actually, thrombotic properties. The trademarks often imply original compositions and, especially, technologies: Quick Relief, BioSeal, BallistiClot, Hemaderm, CELOX Gauze PRO, OMNI-STAT Hemostatic Gauze for minor external bleeding. The most effective LHA are those based on chitosan and kaolin in the form of dressings with embedded clot-forming substance, for example, with artificial platelets or other coagulation factors.
Aproximações entre a filosofia não analítica da linguagem e o pragmatismo
Authors: Schurig Alessandra Scherma
Published: July 2019

A filosofia da consciência com seu padrão de neutralidade do observador, separação entre sujeito e objeto, essencialidade das coisas, classifica a linguagem tão somente como veículo de comunicação, enfatizando a dimensão instrumental da linguagem, paradigma que sofre uma mudança essencial com a concepção de linguagem heideggeriana, formando um dos pilares da tradição não analítica de linguagem, que tem em uma de suas vertentes o pragmatismo
O elemento lógico representado pela retrodução na filosofia de Charles Sanders Peirce
Authors: D'Oliveira Júlio César
Published: July 2019

Há muito ainda que se investigar e refletir sobre a filosofia desenvolvida por C.S. Peirce. Mas um elemento de especial relevância está anunciado nos meandros da sua Teoria da Percepção. Referimo-nos acerca do ato de retrodução e buscaremos destacar que sua primordialidade está ligada às operações do raciocínio, composto também dos elementos de dedução e indução.  A importância deste breve estudo se eleva quando examina como tais elementos auxiliam na exegese fenomenológica peirciana, o que, como consequência, viabiliza ativamente a compreensão do mundo. Com isso, pretendemos aclarar ao máximo o conceito atribuído à retrodução, bem como a forma pela qual esta forma de raciocínio se manifesta em nossos comportamentos empíricos.  Será satisfatório, deste modo, compreendê-la como uma atuação da mente que ocorre num átimo, enquanto ainda há algo de vago, cuja eclosão do sentido que capta o fenômeno se dá no horizonte da experiência, mas num momento em que os elementos externos ainda não estão aptos para gerar certeza cognitiva sobre qualquer coisa. Todavia, nem por isso possui papel insignificante, já que a partir deste sentimento sedimentam-se as bases para a dedução e a indução também atuarem, possibilitando a concretude das ações e construindo pontes do mundo interior para o universo exterior.
São os ready-mades e a arte conceitual compatíveis com uma definição estética de arte?
Authors: Morokawa Rosi Leny
Published: July 2019

Para incluir a variada produção artística do século XX, alguns filósofos negam que haja qualquer condição estética que algo deva satisfazer para ser arte. Mas será que é preciso abandonar condições estéticas para se definir arte, a fim de que, assim, se possa incluir casos como os ready-mades de Duchamp e da Arte Conceitual como casos de arte? As principais objeções às definições estéticas de arte centram-se no argumento de que elas excluem esses casos como casos de arte e que esses seriam, portanto, contraexemplos às definições estéticas de arte. Neste artigo, pretendo mostrar que a definição estética de Monroe Beardsley pode responder à objeção da arte “não-estética” de Timothy Binkley, uma vez que a base para esta objeção é uma concepção puramente perceptual da experiência estética.
