Set Belts from the Catacomb No. 31 of the Early-Medieval Burial Ground near Verkhnii Saltiv Village
Authors: Aksionov V. S.
Published: March 2024

The materials of the catacomb burial no. 31 investigated in 1985 by the expedition of the Kharkiv Historical Museum under the leadership of V. H. Borodulina on the main site of the Early-Medieval burial ground in Verknii Saltiv village (VSM1) are introduced into the scientific circulation. The burial chamber, transverse to the dromos, contained the remains of two people (a man and a woman) with the traces of deliberate destruction committed in ancient times (fig. 1: 1). Inventory found with the buried people (fig. 2) allows dating this complex to the second — third quarters of the 9th century. The elements of the belt set found in the burial, represented by cast bronze plaques and a fragment of a bronze belt buckle (fig. 1: 2—6) are of interest. Two belt plaques with a fixed loop in the lower part of the shield are decorated with a lotus ornament (fig. 1: 6) typical for the 3rd chronological horizon of the Saltiv antiquities. Two square-shaped plaques with a rectangular hole that has a pointed top in the lower part of the shield (fig. 1: 3, 4) are distinctive among the Turkic antiquities of the 8th—10th centuries. Similar plaques of the Saltiv period are found in the assemblages of the Volga River middle region and the Southern Urals (Volga Bulgarians, Magyars, Mordovians, Mari), where they are part of the decorations of the Turk-Ural circle. Five more round plaques are decorated with floral ornament (fig. 1: 5), which finds analogies in the monuments of the “Magyar” circle of the 9th—10th centuries (Elizavetino-Mikhailovka, Kriukovo-Kuzhnovskii burial grounds in the Volga region, burial in the village of Nova Mykolaivka in the Dnipro Oblast). This belt set consists of three types of plaques that correspond to different traditions. Appearance of the set reflects existence of certain military fashion in the Saltiv society associated with the role played by the Magyars in the 830–890s, being in allied relations with the top of the Khazar Khaganate.

Published: March 2024

Today, preserving Ukraine’s cultural heritage is an integral task for museum organisations and research institutions. Digitising museum collections has become an important and timely task for museum’s employees. The creation of 3D-models of one of the collections of crosses-encolpions of the 10th—13th centuries which is stored in the repository of the Chernihiv Historical Museum named after V. V. Tarnovskyi was no exception. It took place in 2023 with the support of the Deutsches Archäologisches Institut (DAI). The aim of the project was to create a publicly available digital catalogue of the collection, which is posted on the website of the mentioned Museum named after V. V. Tanrnovskyi and on the sketchfaom/horm (fig.1). 53 encolpion crosses were in the archaeological part of the collection of V. V. Tarnovskyi at the end of the 19th century. Today only 21 encolpions from this collection are preserved in the Museum. Almost all reliquary crosses from the collection are dated to the period of Kyivan Rus, and only one item was an import from the Byzantine provinces. Various types of encolpions are represented: crosses with relief images (the most numerous), with blackened images and relief-blackened encolpion crosses. A rare type of reliquary crosses includes an encolpion back leaf with a relief image of John the Baptist with an accompanying inscription. Three-dimensional modeling and corresponding photogrammetric recording is quite widely used to digitise the smallest moving artefacts. Models are used for advanced recording and digital preservation of data, visualisation of research results, additional metrological studies, computer reconstructions, etc. Method of photogrammetric surveying was used during the creation of a digital catalogue of 3D-models of encolpion crosses. The result of the project is the creation of a multimedia visualised digital catalogue of the collection of encolpion crosses in free access on the global network, which presents a moving 3D-model of each arteifact and the main descriptive information. This will ensure the preservation of arteifacts in the digital dimension, their use in the Museum’s inteactive exhibitions, the creation of an accurate material copy of the arteifact, and allow remote analysis of materials by scientists for consultations, familiariszation wit artefacts, scintific analysis and writing of scientific articles.

Authors:   M.G. Kholodny Institute of Botany of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv, Mykchaylova O.B. ,   National Technical University of Ukraine “Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute”
Published: March 2024

Understanding the impact of artificial lighting on the biosynthetic and biological activity of medicinal mushrooms will help enhance technologies aimed at obtaining bioactive compounds. The aim of our work was to determine the influence of low-intensity quasi-monochromatic light on biosynthetic activity, including the antioxidant activity of the medicinal fungus Laricifomes officinalis under submerged cultivation conditions. Methods. The effect of light on the biosynthetic activity of L. officinalis was studied using sources of low-intensity coherent monochromatic laser light and quasi-monochromatic radiation of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with specified spectral-intensity characteristics. Results. The most stimulating effect on the biosynthetic activity of the L. officinalis strain was observed when samples were irradiated with blue (488 nm laser and 470 nm LED) and red (650 nm LED) light. Under these conditions, there was an increase in the synthesis of mycelial mass, polysaccharides, and the quantity of total phenolic compounds. Low-intensity light irradiation caused changes in both the quantitative and qualitative composition of the fatty acid profile of the mycelial mass. Red light irradiation resulted in an increase in the quantity of polyunsaturated fatty acids. A correlation was established between the quantity of total phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity. Conclusions: The research results provide grounds to consider low-intensity visible light as a promising regulator of the biosynthetic activity of L. officinalis in the biotechnology of its cultivation.

Authors: Probe Claudia
Published: March 2024

Los actuales contextos interpelan a la educación superior, donde la configuración de disciplinas puente contribuye a la construcción compartida para abordar temas y problemas. El encuentro entre los campos de la salud y de la educación constituye un caso emblemático de la relación entre campos disciplinares. Se trata de identificar razones por las cuales resulta dificultoso transferir conocimiento en la resolución de problemas con sujetos provenientes de distintas disciplinas. Este artículo, surgido de una investigación de doctorado, busca compartir la construcción de categorías teóricas cuyo alcance no se circunscribe a un único nivel de enseñanza, sino que manifiesta dimensiones reveladoras en avance. La conversación con sustancia, la inclusión educativa y su polisemia, los contenidos y la vinculación entre campos de conocimiento desafían lo inédito. Las huellas históricas, la dimensión pedagógica del campo de la salud y la transformación de los sujetos favorecen nuevos encuentros entre sujetos y disciplinas. Exploramos aportes de otros campos disciplinares y entrevistamos a expertos para contribuir a la contrastación, con el fin de propiciar los espacios institucionales de formación continua, investigación y reinvención.

Esta formación debe adaptarse al contexto de cada institución educativa y a la rápida evolución de las tecnologías que pueden utilizarse para apoyar los procesos académicos. En este contexto, es importante contar con estructuras dentro de la institución educativa, como los denominados Centros de Enseñanza y Aprendizaje (CEA), que sean los pilares de la innovación, apoyen la formación docente, sirvan como espacios de experimentación y guían al profesorado a la hora de redefinir sus asignaturas y generar los contenidos correspondientes. Este artículo presenta el trabajo realizado durante más de tres años para construir CEA en universidades latinoamericanas, tomando dos universidades de Guatemala y dos de Colombia como ejemplo. Como parte de este proceso, se ha creado además una red de cooperación en relación con los CEA en Latinoamérica para compartir contenidos y acciones formativas y servir como observatorio de tendencias en innovación educativa.
De las teorías a las prácticas: avances y desafíos de la incorporación de la perspectiva de géneros en el desarrollo curricular y docente de carreras de Pregrado
Authors: Gaba Mariana , Gajardo Poblete Carla , Murillo Núñez Nicole
Published: March 2024

Distintas reflexiones han abordado el androcentrismo y cissexismo en las propuestas curriculares (Buquet, 2013; Universidad Nacional de Rosario, 2020) pero hay un relativo vacío de investigaciones que den cuenta del trabajo profesional realizado por las áreas responsables dentro de las Instituciones de Educación Superior (IES) para revertir este escenario. Es por ello, que consideramos de particular relevancia, y un aporte significativo, el presentar una sistematización y reflexión del trabajo realizado por la Dirección de Desarrollo Curricular y Docente (DDCD) y el Departamento de Género (DG) de la Universidad Diego Portales (UDP) en el que buscamos describir, analizar y caracterizar avances y desafíos a partir de los procesos de incorporación de la perspectiva de géneros (PGs) en los procesos de desarrollo curricular de 21 carreras de pregrado en el periodo 2019-2023. Los hallazgos del periodo son valiosos para quienes participan en estos procesos en tanto posibilitan anticiparse a los efectos y límites de las propias intervenciones, de manera de ir enriqueciendo no solo el trabajo de diagnóstico y reflexión para la Innovación Curricular con PGs, sino también los apoyos específicos que se precisan para llevar adelante esta desafiante tarea.

El artículo científico y el informe de tesis, una dicotomía
Authors: Bocanegra Vilcamango Beder
Published: March 2024

La investigación es el ejercicio académico muy relativo y casi nulo en la universidad peruana, del mismo modo ocurre con el proceso de divulgación científica. Existe relativa y sesgada percepción conceptual entre el informe de tesis y el artículo científico. El estudio parte del objetivo: plantear el artículo científico como alternativa de graduación ya sea en estudios de pregrado y posgrado. Se ha utilizado el método de indagación documentaria considerando el aporte de ocho universidades de América Latina y la diversidad de propuestas para graduarse en pre- y posgrado. El estudio se ha complementado con el método narrativo-biográfico, que recoge el aporte científico de: Koch, Pasteur, Kohlberg, Vygotsky, Piaget, Freud, Newton, Faraday, Darwin, Freudenberger, Maslach, Diamon y Broock. La sinergia del método indagatorio documental con el narrativo-biográfico permite valorar la vigencia del artículo científico como medio de divulgación científica. El vigor de la estructura IMRYD es el origen estructural del artículo científico para divulgar el conocimiento.
Rol sanitario del establecimiento escolar, ¿cómo abordamos la post-pandemia por COVID-19?
Authors: Azócar-Gallardo Jairo , Carrizo-Largo Jorge , Ojeda-Aravena Alex
Published: March 2024

Reforzar la importancia del papel sanitario de la escuela ante las consecuencias indirectas sufridas durante los últimos años de la pandemia del covid.19, desde la perspectiva de la promoción de la salud y la adquisición de hábitos saludables y de actividad física es de suma importancia. Por ello, se invita a replantear las estrategias para hacer frente a las consecuencias de la pandemia del covid-19, que se tradujo en nuevas cifras de sedentarismo, sobrepeso, obesidad y problemas de salud mental, considerando entonces las características individuales de los escolares y los espacios educativos para la promoción de una vida saludable y la práctica de actividad física y ejercicio sin riesgo para la salud.

Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL) is one of the world's neglected diseases which is caused by Leishmania spp. The aim of this study was to assess molecular profile and antimony resistance of Leishmania isolated from human and rodent hosts. Samples were collected from suspected CL patients referred to health centres and wild rodent's traps in Gonbad-e-Qabus region, north-eastern Iran. Smears were subjected to PCR-RFLP to identify Leishmania species. In addition, ITS1-PCR products were sequenced for phylogenetic analysis. Clinical isolates and rodent samples were subjected to MTT assay to determine IC50 values and in vitro susceptibilities. Expression levels of antimony resistance-related genes were determined in CL isolates. Out of 1,949 suspected patients with CL and 148 rodents, 1,704 (87.4%) and 6 (4.05%) were positive with direct smear, respectively. Digestion patterns of BusRI (HaeIII) endonuclease enzyme were similar to what expected for Leishmania major. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the highest interspecies similarity was found between current L. major sequences with L. major obtained from Russia and Uzbekistan. Out of 20 L. major samples tested, 13 (65%) were resistant to meglumine antimoniate (MA) treatment, with an activity index (AI) exceeding 4. The remaining 7 samples (35%) responded to MA treatment and were classified as sensitive isolates, with a confirmed sensitive phenotype based on their AI values. The comparison expression analysis of three major antimony resistance-associated genes in unresponsive clinical isolates demonstrated significant fold changes for TDR1 (4.78-fold), AQP1 (1.3-fold), and γ-GCS (1.17-fold) genes (P < 0.05). Herein, we demonstrate genetic diversity and antimony resistance of L. major isolated from human and reservoir hosts in north-eastern Iran, which could be the basis for planning future control strategies.

The significance of the absorption of EU funds in the socio-economic development of the subregions of Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia
Authors: Spychała Marcin
Published: March 2024

Within the EU cohesion policy, higher and lower developed regions, taking into account only GDP per capita, are subcategorised. Based on that, areas qualifying for obtaining support from aid programs of the general EU budget are established. The aim of the article is to attempt to specify the co-dependency between the absorption of EU funds and the changes in the level of socio-ceonomic development in the regional dimension. The research was conducted at the level of 95 NUTS-3 units in Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia in three stages. In the first stage, the level of the development of the subregions in Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia is exhibited, subcategorising three factors of that growth based on 31 indicators: “the society”, “the economy”, or “the natural environment”. In the second stage, the variation in the absorption of EU funds in the researched units is demonstrated. In the third stage, the co-dependencies between the extent of the absorption and the changes in the development within the arrangement of the factors of that development are specified. In the article, a hypothesis is verified according to which the absorption of the EU funds impacted, above all, the development of “the economy” component. As a result of the examination conducted, it has been concluded that the absorption of EU funds impacted the changes in the level of the development of the “economy” sector to the largest extent. It confirms the proper direction of the EU fund intervention, which was made accessible above all to the benefit of the development of that factor.
