Introduction: HIV infection and AIDS are associated with numerous challenges, and infected people experience extreme despair, fear, anxiety, and depression. However, counseling therapy and yoga techniques may help ease stress-related illness, produce internal strength through relaxation, and enhance immunity. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of counseling therapy and Hatha yoga on the adherence level, nutritional status, and quality of life (QOL) of HIV-infected adolescents. Materials and Methods: A randomized controlled trial study was conducted. Through the simple random method, 388 (195 in the experimental and 193 in the control group) HIVinfected adolescents were selected. The data of HIV-infected adolescents and caregivers were collected from four main Antiretroviral Therapy clinics in Chennai, India, through Standardized Antiretroviral Therapy adherence, QOL, and a structured nutritional assessment questionnaire. Motivational counseling was given to the experimental group, and the researcher demonstrated selected asanas. The data were collected from both groups at 0, 3, and 6 months intervals. The descriptive statistics of mean, standard deviation, and inferential statistics of the student independent t test and Chi-square test were used to determine the effectiveness of interventional variables in both groups. Results: The Mean±SD age of the experimental group of adolescents was 13.6±2.2 years, and that of the control group was 13.8±2.4 years. There is an improvement range in the experimental vs the control group for the components of adherence level (13.4% vs 4.9%) and QOL (15.1% vs 0.9%) at a significance of P=0.001 with a 95% confidence interval. Also, the nutritional gain score was significantly increased to 9.3% vs 1.5% (P=0.05). Regarding CD4 (cluster of differentiation 4) count, the baseline mean score was 664.86 vs 669.72, whereas, in the sixth month, it significantly increased to 840.35 vs 703.35 (P=0.001). Conclusion: Motivational counseling and behavior modification of yoga efficiently improved health status and well-being among HIV-infected adolescents in the experimental group compared to the control group.

Published: March 2023

With more and more literature on international student mobility and migration (ISM), one area of focus has often been overlooked: the impacts of student visas and study permits. Examined through an institutionalist framework highlighting the influences of institutions on individuals and their agency, this study describes how visa and study permit policies pervades international students’ lives in a variety of ways. Interview data collected from 40 international students who study in Australia, Canada, and the United States were analyzed to uncover themes from these host countries. Drawing on these interviews to outline the concept of ISM policy pervasion, the findings of this study show that visa policies affect international students in wide ranging ways. In addition to providing empirical evidence for ISM policy pervasion, this article also lays the groundwork for further studies that delve into the practical impacts of student visa and study permit policies around the world.

Millions of social enterprises spread all over the world include new strategies, ideas, and principles that aim to solve the urgent needs of society or prevent typical problems of society (poverty, addictive behavior, uneven distribution of capital, protection of human rights, reduction of environmental degradation, the struggle for civil rights of minorities, etc.). They can no longer wait for action from governments, corporations, etc. Social entrepreneurship is an essential topic for every country because such a business will help solve all the problems that have arisen and are arising in the territories of states. The main difference from a regular business is that profit generation, and distribution is not an end in itself or the primary goal for social entrepreneurship. The activity of a social entrepreneur consists in recognizing a situation when a part of society is limited in its development and eliminating the corresponding restrictions. A social enterprise differs from other enterprises in that, for the former, the social effect is a direct targeted result, not a by-product of the activity. In contrast, social entrepreneurship is an innovative approach through which individuals can solve serious social problems facing their community. The article identifies essential aspects of the development and functioning of the field of social entrepreneurship through the analysis of the activities of successful social enterprises in the world and Ukraine. Enterprises that are socially responsible and promote better living standards have been studied. During the fight against COVID-19, companies that are engaged in helping others and reducing the economic consequences of the global pandemic have been analyzed. Social enterprise is aimed at creating social and economic benefits. With the help of social enterprises, they try to solve problems in those sectors of society and the economy that are not covered by the state or other enterprises and that are not paid enough attention due to the lack of funds, knowledge, skills, or the lack of prospects for obtaining significant economic benefits.

Published: March 2023

The article examines the peculiarities of the functioning and development of the Ukrainian market of organic products and emphasizes the need for the development of organic production as a priority for the development of the domestic food complex. The instruments of normative and legal regulation of the organic market of Ukraine were determined and it was found that in our country there is no clear state policy regarding the directions of the further development of the organic industry. The main obstacles in the development of the national market of organic products have been identified. Ways to improve the process of promoting organic products of domestic producers to domestic and foreign markets are proposed. The development of the domestic market of organic products is promising given the natural resources available in Ukraine and the growing interest of consumers. As a result of research, it was found that Ukraine occupies a leading position in the area of certified land and mainly specializes in the cultivation of grain and oil crops. The development of the organic movement has been one of the most relevant trends for modern society for many years. Today, consumers are increasingly interested in food products that are ecologically clean and whose production does not have a negative impact on the environment. Such products are presented on the market as products of organic production. The development of organic production is one of the important measures of stable supply of the country’s population with high-quality and safe agricultural products, it will contribute to the improvement of the economic, social and ecological situation in Ukraine, the comprehensive development of rural areas, the improvement of the population’s health and should become one of the factors of strengthening of the country’s economic ties with the European Community. In Ukraine, over the past two decades, there has been a clear trend towards an increase in the production of organic products on areas of agricultural land where certified organic production is carried out, a constant increase in both the number of organic market operators and the level of consumption of organic products in Ukraine. The total area of the country, its agricultural land, geographical position and convenient location in relation to potential international markets all contribute to the development of the organic market and the spread of organic agriculture.

The imperatives of the global grain market development, in the context of the strengthening of global integration processes, were analyzed, within the framework of which it was established that the improvement of the efficiency of grain production at the global level is currently being observed. However, even under the conditions of maintaining the existing rates of its development, the exacerbation of the food crisis remains a significant problem in variety of world regions. Based on grain production key parameters analysis, its producers main problems were detected. A number of such factors as the limited potential for agricultural land expansion (and relatively, the area of arable land), the formation of infrastructure, the need to ensure environmental sustainability, etc., increase the turbulence of their economic activity. Growing competition for these resources can lead to their further overexploitation and destabilization of ecosystems. Taking into account innovative approaches to the economic activity implementation, the factors and determinants of the available production involvement optimization are defined. It was established that the cereal yields varies between groups of countries with different economic system development degrees. In particular, there are very large its differences between high- and low-income countries. Its level is almost twice as high in the former as in the latter. Within the agricultural activities of some low-income countries, it is still possible to find the implementation of only the first, second or third industrial revolution achievements. It was determined that the increase in economic efficiency of the grain market suppliers within developed economy countries and, partially, with a developing economy, occurs mostly due to the production technological modernization (accordingly to the fourth industrial revolution level). At the same time, the use of high-tech tools with no-increasing the cultivated arias volume and simultaneously maintaining produc- tivity require a greater number of highly qualified workers and a corresponding redistribution of the workforce. The strategic directions of the grain production intensification in the regional section are substantiated considering creating conditions for leveling the food crisis.
PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY IS A COMPONENT OF THE ECONOMIC SECURITY OF THE BUSINESS ENTITY

Published: March 2023

When carrying out their activities and making decisions, companies cannot be guided solely by the concept of their own benefit, but must take into account the possible consequences of their actions on the well-being of all interested parties. Taking into account the analysis of scientific publications, it can be noted that they focus on responsibility from a legal and social point of view. Social responsibility consists in the fact that the company undertakes the performance of additional social, environmental and other functions not specified in the legislation. That means, implementation depends on the company’s “desire” to follow such a strategy. Legal responsibility is associated exclusively with illegal behavior, an offense that entails negative consequences. An urgent task of modern science is also the study of the features of the professional responsibility of a specialist, which ensures their personal development and self-realization as a subject of professional activity, compliance with the requirements for professional and personal development and provides for professional suitability and a high level of professional competence, social and professional mobility and independence in relation to making informed decisions. To be professionally responsible means to guarantee the quality performance of one’s professional duty to society and to be able to find opportunities for this in any circumstances. Often the cause of damage is the human factor – an employee of the company may make a mistake or oversight while providing professional services, which in the future may cause damage or lack of profit for the company itself, as well as for counterparties and partners. The article examines scientific approaches to the definition of professional responsibility from the point of view of social, economic, legal and other components. It is noted that each employee must possess qualities known as personal resources, and they constitute a unique human potential that is the basis of his professional responsibility. At the same time, the business entity bears responsibility to consumers, business partners, and its own employees, which will ultimately ensure personnel and social security, which are components of its economic security. On the basis of foreign experience and summarizing theoretical developments, it was proposed to use the concept of “pyramid of professional responsibility”.

Authors:   Sumy State University, Nesterenko Volodymyr
Published: March 2023

The article highlights the modern marketing communications used by international companies as a result of the spread of the UN program principles in the field of sustainable development. The countries that are leaders in the implementation of sustainable development goals by the main components (environmental, social and economic) are identified. Among these leading countries are, in particular: Sweden, Denmark and Finland. It is established that China, which is the leader of economic growth in the world, does not ensure the achievement of these UN goals. As for Ukraine, the existence of sufficiently acceptable positions in this area (37th place in the world) was established. We state that this result is largely due to the course of the country, its business entities to achieve environmental, social and economic results. In the period of post-war recovery, Ukrainian business will face the task of strict compliance with these UN goals and declaring them in marketing promotion programs. The list of companies that ensure the achievement of these goals through participation in environmental, socio-economic programs is highlighted. It is established that most of the presented companies-leaders in this field are focused on the production of renewable energy, equipment for it, energy-efficient management of housing and communal services of territories, operations in the field of waste recycling (including industrial). The article also identifies companies involved in the oil and gas, processing and mining, light, food and chemical industries, which declare sustainable development goals in the field of ecologization and define a guideline for them in the provisions of marketing communications. The composition of marketing communications used by these market participants to maintain demand and trust among partners and customers regarding the course towards sustainable development is highlighted. It is proved that within the framework of the marketing policy, companies are guided by both traditional approaches (conventional types of advertising, promotion on the Internet, at exhibitions) and those that combine traditional and specific elements (tasting programs, in the context of which the support of ecology, decent treatment of labor at the enterprises of the enterprise whose products are evaluated, the positive impact on health and beauty from its consumption, advertising of their own channel in social networks using hashtags in the field of sustainable development goals).

Published: March 2023

The proposed article is devoted to topical issues of accounting and taxation of forestry operations. The issue of improving the financial condition of forestry through the interaction of certain elements of the system of financial relations of entrepreneurial activity, which is determined by the combination of economic and production categories, is considered. They are the final result of interaction and are also distinguished by a system of models and methods that reflect the availability and use of financial resources at the enterprise. It was noted that profit and profitability are the main conditions of the enterprise's activity, but these indicators do not allow to ensure financial sustainability. The procedure for accounting financial results was studied. The interpretation of the concepts of profit and loss of the enterprise is given. Considered directions for improving the financial results of the enterprise. On the basis of the analysis of the legal basis of taxation of the financial results of forestry activities, the problems of accounting for the operations of forestry land are determined. Forms were reviewed and reasonable terms of rent were proposed. It was noted that an effective tax policy in the field of land use is a significant element of land relations. When studying the instrument of taxation of forestry land, it is possible to obtain certain levers for increasing the amount of income from land fees and creating a reasonable use of land resources. It is noted that for the accounting of financial results it is important to choose a rational accounting policy of forestry. Attention is paid to issues that arise when reflecting income and expenses from investment activities of the enterprise. For this purpose, it is necessary to divide the investment activity into the main investment activity and other investment activity, as well as specify this information on the third-order sub-accounts of the 793 account. Proposals are substantiated when all information about the results of business activity is presented in the financial reports themselves, and is also widely available for calculating the financial stability, level of liquidity and solvency of a given enterprise. Numerous problems have been identified to increase and improve the efficiency of accounting for the financial results of forestry operations.

The article examines the international labor market and presents the place of Ukraine in its system. The main reasons and the main factors that determine the strengthening of the territorial migration of the population are shown. The problems of migration processes caused by the economic crisis, unemployment, low living standards of the population and political instability are considered. The influence of socio-economic processes of labor market integration through the activation of the activities of transnational corporations, the development of offshoring and foreign trade, and the strengthening of labor migration is studied. Special attention is paid to the effects of these processes on the development of the national labor market. The results of the study can be used for further analysis of the peculiarities of Ukraine’s integration processes into the global labor market. A characteristic feature of the modern world economic system is the uneven distribution of labor and production capacity within national economies. Thus, in particular, in some countries or often entire regions with a high level of natural population growth, there is a low level of production, which leads to the formation of a stable unemployment rate (for example, countries in Africa, Southeast and Central Asia), and, conversely, a number of countries with low levels of natural population growth, such as most countries in Western Europe and North America, are characterized by a high level of production, which reveals the problem of labor shortages. This factor, as well as the differentiation that accompanies it, in the level of remuneration are fundamental in the formation of international migration flows of labor in the modern world economy.The emergence of the opening of the Ukrainian society will surely attract more involvement of Ukraine in the international economy by a lot of force. The transition to market economics creates real minds for the development of the labor market. One of the important features of the state is the rapid growth of migratory practices both within the country and abroad.The state of market activity is carried out in the minds of acute crisis phenomena in economic, sociological and political life. The market transpartnership of Ukraine's ecology is carried out extremely unsubstantiatedly, which will lead to the emergence of negative phenomena, deepening of the state of haos. The feeling of the country's population neglecting is caused by two factors that threaten the physical and economic security: the unprecedented rise of banditry and the impending mass unemployment.

In this work there the objective prerequisites for the development of PPP in the transport complex of Ukraine are systematized, its strategic importance for the national economy, the integration of transport and infrastructure components, the extensiveness of the transport network, the scale of implemented investment projects, significant amounts of budget and corporate financing, the need for close cooperation between the state and private partners in part of tariff regulation, compliance with security issues, etc. The requirements for ensuring the transparency of the implementation of PPP projects, in particular by maintaining the Register of long-term obligations within the framework of the PPP, as well as for the financing of projects in the transport complex at the expense of special funds as part of the State Budget of Ukraine, have been determined, and the sources of their formation and use have been determined. The strategic goal of the PPP as a tool for the development of the transport complex of Ukraine based on the institutionalization of forms of investment activity in the form of concession agreements, life cycle contracts, and the creation of joint ventures is substantiated. Proposals for the implementation of PPP projects in certain sectors of the transport complex have been developed. It is shown that concession contracts were the most widespread in it, and the experience of their implementation in the field of highway construction and operation, as well as in port operations, is summarized. It is proposed to extend the experience gained to the concession of airports, railway stations and stations, individual sections of the railway track. The organizational and methodological support for the development of PPP projects in the transport complex has been assessed. Obligations of state partners with regard to annual reporting on the implementation of contracts are defined. A matrix of SWOT analysis of the implementation of PPP projects in the transport complex of Ukraine was built. It was concluded that the strengths and opportunities outweigh the weaknesses and threats provided that martial law ends, the investment climate improves, foreign investors attract funds, administrative barriers are simplified, corruption risks are reduced, and property rights are strengthened.

Равликівництво в Україні молода галузь сільського господарства, яка ще не відзначила свого десятиліття. Вона зародилася завдяки окремим гурманам і яка нині продовжує активно розвиватися на хвилі загального інтересу до нетрадиційних видів продуктів здорового харчування. Равликові ферми, що виникають на просторах нашої країни здебільшого керуються і обслуговуються людьми, що не є фахівцями в галузі равликівництва. Якість продукції визначається сукупністю властивостей, що зумовлюють придатність її задовольняти певні потреби людини відповідно до їх призначення. Проблема якості та безпеки м'яса равликів є відкритим питанням зараз в Україні. Для оцінки споживчих переваг харчових продуктів широко використовують сенсорні або органолептичні методи, засновані на аналізі органів чуття людини. Тому мета даної роботи полягала у дегустаційному оцінюванню якості м’яса їстівних равликів. Дослідження були проведені на основі ДСТУ 4823.2:2007 «Продукти м`ясні. Органолептичне оцінювання показників якості. Частина 2. Загальні вимоги». Перед проведенням дегустаційної оцінки равлики перебували 4 дні на голодній дієті та періодично зрошувались водою. Надалі равликів виймали з мушлі, відрізали лише їстівну частину, тобто «ногу» і формували середню пробу м’яса не менше 40,0 г. М’ясо дегустували після теплової обробки. Для цього його клали у каструлю з холодною водою, співвідношення 1:10. Варили протягом 1,5 години від початку закипання води. Подальше приготування відбувалося за легкого кипіння. Піну, що утворювалася, періодично знімали з бульйону. Сіль кидали за 20–30 хвилин до закінчення варіння у кількості 3% від ваги м'яса. Розроблено порядок проведення дегустаційного аналізу та удосконалено схему органолептичних показників якості м'яса равликів. Встановлено, що за допомогою органів чуття, а саме: зору можна визначити у м’ясі равликів зовнішній вигляд та колір, натиском – консистенцію, а нюхом – запах м’яса. Розроблені науково-обґрунтовані методи органолептичного аналізу м’яса, які включають методику відбору, варку та принцип проведення дегустації. На основі проведених досліджень за 5-бальною системою отримано дегустаційний лист та удосконалено показники в ньому, на основі якого можна проводити аналіз якості м’яса їстівних видів равликів.

Published: March 2023

As firms are exposed to various risks, supply network risk management has become important. Previous studies have conducted supply network risk research from various perspectives, particularly due to the severity of supply disruption to buying firms. While the existing studies have identified those suppliers based on centrality measures of their positions in the supply network mostly from the social network perspective, there was also a limitation in quantitatively assessing the suppliers’ disruption risk in the network. Therefore, this study intended to theoretically expand and develop the study on the supply network risk from the existing social network perspective by applying the Bayesian network analysis. So we used the Bayesian network analysis to quantitatively assess the suppliers’ disruption risk in the supply network and measure their risk impact on the focal firm. Through it, we identified the network properties of the critical suppliers that the focal firm should pay attention to for its effective supply network risk management and suggested related insights.
REMOVAL OF HEAVY METALS BY ADSORBENT PRODUCED FROM KHAYA SENEGALENSIS
Authors: Alhaji Adamu Yahaya
Published: March 2023

Mankind quest for better life has led to advancements in modern technologies which include a number of manufacturing processes and methodologies. Some of these processes and methodologies often release harmful substances into the environment including heavy metals which lead to pollution. These heavy metals are non-biodegradable and therefore need to be removed. Attention has been devoted to emerging technologies which are relatively cheap, for the removal of heavy metal ions from contaminated waters. Adsorption of heavy metal ions using biological materials is one such technologies. As such, the adsorption of Cr(vi), Cd (ii), Zn (ii) and Ni(ii) from synthetic solution by activated carbon from Khaya senegalensis was studied in a batch experiment as a function of pH, metal concentration, adsorbent dose and contact time. Solutions after the batch experiments were analyzed using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The result revealed dependency of adsorption process on pH. The optimal metal removal occurred at pH 6 for Cd (ii), Zn (ii) and Ni (ii) and 3 for Cr (vi). Maximum adsorption of 82.2 %, 78.9 %, 87.2 % and 83.3 % was attained for Cr (vi), Cd (ii), Zn (ii) and Ni (ii) respectively. Adsorption capacity of the adsorbent improved with initial metal concentration. Ion exchange seemed to be the major mechanism of adsorption in this study. The data collected was were modelled by the Langmuir isotherm over the entire concentration range, suggesting a monolayer coverage. The result showed that, sulphurised Khaya senegalensis is effective in removing heavy metal ions from aqueous solution.

One serious health condition which has made people to suffer from uncontrollable high blood sugar is diabetes. The problems of existing detection approaches are data imbalance, feature selection, and lack of generic framework for diabetes classification. In this research, developed an ontology-based diabetes classification model using naïve Bayes classifier was developed. The model is divided into five modules: data collection, feature selection, ontology construction, classification, and document query. The data collection module adapted PIMA Indian Diabetes Database to predict diabetes. The feature selection module employed multi-step approach for selecting the most important features from dataset. For automatically constructing ontology rules based on the chosen features, the ontology generation module used a decision tree classifier. Based on the user's question, the classification module employed a Nave Bayes classifier to automatically classify the built ontology as having diabetes. Based on the ontology-based nave Bayes classification, the document query module searches and returns the anticipated documents requested by users. The proposed model using a 10-fold cross validation performed better in diabetes in precision, accuracy, recall and F1-score of 96.5%, 93.55%, 79.2% and 87.0%, respectively. Benchmarking tools included K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Decision Tree (DT), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Logistic Regression (LR), Hidden Markov Model (HMM), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naive Bayes (NB), Random Forest (RF), and Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN). With an area of 0.9578 in compared to other relevant methods, the created model suggested a more accurate test. They demonstrated that the model's cost-effectiveness for predicting diabetes outweighs its value.

Published: March 2023

В умовах постійного зростання попиту на інформатизацію усіх сфер життєдіяльності суспільства залишається відкритим питання надійного та стабільного функціонування інформаційних систем/сервісів (ІС), що надають послуги користувачам у режимі реального часу.У даному контексті особливої уваги заслуговує стабільне (неперервне) функціонування ІС критичної інфраструктури держави, зокрема ІС військового призначення.

Одним з можливих вирішень завдань даного класу є концепція теорії математичних моделей прийняття оптимальних рішень в умовах конфлікту – рівновага Неша. Це така множина стратегій або дій у грі з двома чи більше гравцями, згідно з якими кожен учасник реалізує оптимальну стратегію, передбачаючи дії суперників, при якій жоден із учасників не може збільшити виграш, змінивши вибір стратегії в односторонньому порядку, коли інші учасники не змінюють свого вибору.

Метою статтіє удосконалення методу адаптивного балансування навантаження кластерної системи військового призначення на основі рівноваги Неша для досягнення стійкої рівноваги оптимального використання серверних ресурсів із максимальною конвергенцією до соціального оптимуму.

Запропоновано підхід, який дозволяє вирішити описану у статті проблематику:

пошук рівноваги у змішаних стратегіях завжди має рішення;

кількість гравців обмежено біматричною грою, що дозволяє знаходити рівновагу Неша за досить короткий час;

метод ефективно адаптується до динаміки значень усіх розглянутих впливових на процес балансування навантаження факторів;

виведення з ладу одного із серверів не призводить до втрати завдань у цілому, які йому було делеговано, втрачається лише їх частина (можливо відновити за контрольною сумою).

Отримані результати відповідають актуальним вимогам до функціонування ІС критичної інфраструктури держави, зокрема ІС військового призначення у контексті їх стабільності (неперервності) та надійності.
The feasibility of identifying health inequalities in social prescribing referrals and declines using primary care patient records

Published: March 2023

Background

Social prescribing (SP) is part of universal personalised care and available to everyone in the UK National Health Service. However, emerging evidence suggests access disparities in social prescribing. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of accessing and analysing data on social prescribing from primary care records. Our secondary aim was to examine exposure to social prescribing and compare characteristics of patients who decline/accept social prescribing referrals to explore possible health inequalities in access to social prescribing.

Methods

Patient records (n=3086) were extracted from 11 GP practices across Northwest England for accepted, offered and declined social prescribing referrals. Patient demographics collected included sex, age, ethnicity, mental and physical health diagnoses.

Patient characteristics in social prescribing referrals were compared to the overall practice population (practice information from Public Health England). Decline and acceptance rates were compared by group (e.g. male/female decline rates).

Results

GP referral data showed inconsistent recording of wider determinants of health and variations in referral patterns on a practice-to-practice basis. Some variables had very poor rates of recording and did not yield useful information. Patient age, sex and mental and physical health conditions were consistently recorded. Other variables such as disability and housing status showed sporadic GP recording across our dataset.

Our preliminary findings identified underrepresentation of younger age groups and Asians, and higher declined referrals among individuals with physical health diagnoses.

Conclusions

The differing referral patterns between practices and recording discrepancies meant that many patient factors could not be used to assess trends in social prescribing referrals and declines. Preliminary results suggest that some patient groups may be underrepresented in referral data, however this needs further research and investigation.  Consistency is required in social prescribing data recording in primary care. Data on wider determinants is needed to assess variations in referrals and declines and explore inequalities.

A questionnaire survey was conducted with 600 growers in six potato growing areas of Bangladesh viz. Munshiganj, Barisal-Patuakhali, Dinajpur-Thakurgaon, Joypurhat, Jamalpur-Sherpur and Jashore-Chuadanga to collect a detailed information about potato storage at home and in cold storages along with their disposal pattern. The survey revealed that 55.2% growers store their potatoes in the cold storages. Due to the proximity of cold storages (within 1-10 km from the home/field) majority potato growers of Munshiganj (82%), Dinajpur-Thakurgaon (81%) and Joypurhat (70%) stored in cold storages. On the other hand, majority growers of Barisal-Patuakhali (88%) and Jamalpur-Sherpur (73%) could not store due to lack or long distance of cold storages. The growers disposed up their cold stored potatoes mainly by selling to local paikers at cold storage gate or by using as seed. While considering all areas, 56.0 % farmers stored potatoes at home in the studied areas. Majority farmers in Dinajpur-Thakurgaon (91%), Joypurhat (98%) and Jamalpur-Sherpur (65.0%) areas stored potato at home. Farmers of these areas stored upto 150 days at home because of cultivation of local varieties. Regarding disposal of home stored potatoes, the growers mainly sold to local paikers or at local market or used for own family consumption or by other means.

Метою статті є розробка вимог та визначення особливостей побудови підсистеми навігаційного забезпечення безпеки судноплавства на внутрішніх судноплавних шляхах. Поставлена мета досягається шляхом аналізу наявних та перспективних систем навігаційного забезпеченнябезпеки судноводіння на внутрішніх водних шляхах та формулювання відповідних вимог, що забезпечать задані показники. Причому розробка вимог та визначення особливостей побудови підсистеми навігаційного забезпечення безпеки судноплавства враховують забезпечення єдності управління та контролю за функціонуванням ланцюга контрольно-коригувальних станцій на внутрішніх водних шляхах України. Доведено порядок вибору необхідних кутів нахилу супутників, що впливають на якість і дальність зв’язку. Найбільш суттєвим результатом є розробка вимог щодо точності і дискретності позиціонування диференціальних систем, що дозволяє виділити особливості розміщення контрольно-корегувальних станцій підсистеми навігаційного забезпечення безпеки судноплавства, характерні для внутрішніх судноплавних шляхів, що суттєво відрізняються від вимог для морських акваторій. Визначені основні фактори, що впливають на точність системи. Основний вплив на похибку здійснює зміна кута піднесення супутника. Доведено, що для дотримання порядку точності системи при видаленні понад 500-700км від контрольної точки варто обмежити використання супутників з кутами піднесення більше за 10°. Необхідно враховувати час доби, географічну широту, час року та фази циклу сонячної активності. Деградація похибки при віддаленні від контрольної точки з 100 км до 500 км збільшується в 5 разів при кутах підвищення супутників. Значимість одержаних результатів полягає у формулюванні вимог та визначенні особливостей побудови підсистеми навігаційного забезпечення безпеки судноплавства на внутрішніх судноплавних шляхах з урахуванням їх специфіки, що дозволить знизити витрати на розгортання елементів системи, одночасно підвищивши його точність. Таким чином, проведені дослідження показали ефективність запропонованого підходу для подальшого розвитку підсистеми навігаційного забезпечення безпеки судноводіння.Ключові слова: навігаційне забезпечення, безпека судноводіння, внутрішні судноплавні шляхи, точність, супутник, контрольно-корегувальна станція, диференціальна система.

Підвищення екологічності суднових енергетичних установок (СЕУ) є важливим та актуальним завданням, пов’язаним з посиленням вимог до екологічності по викидам NOх, SOx та СОх з боку міжнародних організацій, розширення зон контролю (спеціальних районів) за викидами в морському просторі, звертання уваги суднобудівників до питання екологічності. В результаті обчислень з використанням розробленої математичної моделі зроблено висновок про необхідність установлення всередині ФОЕ направляючих пластин, що дозволить збільшити температурний перепад у газовому потоці за рахунок збільшення розміру пухирців ВГ у процесі підйому. У ході дослідження встановлено, що швидкість підйому пухирців ВГ всередині ФОЕ досягає постійної величини за три секунди початку руху, не залежитьвід швидкості їх підведення або в'язкості отриманої суміші газу з рідиною. Для підвищення ефективності процесу фільтрування суднових ВГ необхідно у рідині необхідно збільшувати поверхню контакту пухирців газів з рідиною всередині ФОЕ. Конструктивно це можливо зробити шляхом генерування в нижній частині елемента газових пухирців максимального діаметра та вибором кута нахилу направляючих пластин всередині ФОЕ, таким чином, щоб забезпечити максимально тривалий контакт ВГ з рідиною.Ключові слова:екологічність. методи, енергетичні установки, водне середовище
Aspectos metodológicos da etnografia focada sobre os sentidos: debatendo o uso de pequenas narrativas e fatos sociais de Durkheim

Estudos etnográficos exercem interesses polissêmicos em investigadores qualitativos da saúde – defrontados pelo fascínio teórico versus a praticabilidade e a transferibilidade em seus campos de atuação. Partindo da experiência no âmbito hospitalar oncológico, objetivou-se, neste artigo, refletir sobre o desenvolvimento de pesquisas etnográficas focadas na busca dos sentidos da saúde-doença-cuidado, com a fundamentação das pequenas narrativas e dos fatos sociais de Émile Durkheim. Indicam-se procedimentos de produção de dados a partir de olhares, observações, notas em diário, autorreflexão e entrevistas com feedbacks, preservando a sistematização, não com a finalidade de um cientificismo torpe, mas, sim, possibilitando repasse de suas implicações para a prática ou para mover reflexões na Saúde Pública e seus profissionais, ao abarcarem descrições acerca das esferas microssocial e macrossocial. Ao final do debate, apontam-se dinâmicas e desmistificações sobre a etnografia focada com a finalidade de perpetuar o fascínio inerente a ela e, ainda, amplificar sua execução em cenários hospitalares.
Pathogenesis and Prevention of Intraventricular Hemorrhage in Preterm Infants
Authors: Tsao Pei-Chen
Published: March 2023

Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a serious concern for preterm infants and can predispose such infants to brain injury and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. IVH is particularly common in preterm infants. Although advances in obstetric management and neonatal care have led to a lower mortality rate for preterm infants with IVH, the IVH-related morbidity rate in this population remains high. Therefore, the present review investigated the pathophysiology of IVH and the evidence related to interventions for prevention. The analysis of the pathophysiology of IVH was conducted with a focus on the factors associated with cerebral hemodynamics, vulnerabilities in the structure of cerebral vessels, and host or genetic predisposing factors. The findings presented in the literature indicate that fluctuations in cerebral blood flow, the presence of hemodynamic significant patent ductus arteriosus, arterial carbon dioxide tension, and impaired cerebral venous drainage; a vulnerable or fragile capillary network; and a genetic variant associated with a mechanism underlying IVH development may lead to preterm infants developing IVH. Therefore, strategies focused on antenatal management, such as routine corticosteroid administration and magnesium sulfate use; perinatal management, such as maternal transfer to a specialized center; and postnatal management, including pharmacological agent administration and circulatory management involving prevention of extreme blood pressure, hemodynamic significant patent ductus arteriosus management, and optimization of cardiac function, can lower the likelihood of IVH development in preterm infants. Incorporating neuroprotective care bundles into routine care for such infants may also reduce the likelihood of IVH development. The findings regarding the pathogenesis of IVH further indicate that cerebrovascular status and systemic hemodynamic changes must be analyzed and monitored in preterm infants and that individualized management strategies must be developed with consideration of the risk factors for and physiological status of each preterm infant.
