Un análisis teórico sobre el proceso de financiarización económica
Authors: Lapa Guzman Javier
Published: October 2019

El proceso de financiarización económica ha sido definido como una etapa del sistema capitalista en la que las ganancias se persiguen vía canales financieros, y no, a través de los relacionados con la producción y distribución. Este proceso guarda estrecha relación con el notable desarrollo del sector financiero, producto de factores como el progreso tecnológico; la innovación financiera; y la globalización y liberalización de los mercados financieros. Sus efectos no se limitan al ámbito financiero, sino que también repercuten en el productivo, a nivel macro y microeconómico; por lo tanto, su comprensión teórica adquiere relevancia.
El tema de investigación, enfoque hacia lo que se desea conocer
Authors: Torres-Flórez Dagoberto
Published: October 2019

Iniciar un proceso investigativo se convierte en una tarea que se debe dedicar tiempo y sobre todo contar con una serie de pasos que le permitan al investigador realizarlo de manera ordenada y objetiva, a esto es necesario construir el tema de investigación y el problema de investigación, como se mencionaría coloquialmente, ahí está el problema.
Respecto al tema es importante que exista un marco general donde se encuentre el interés de búsqueda, pertinente a las necesidades del objeto de estudio, para ello una mirada teórica entregará al autor, elementos que le permitirán llegar al planteamiento de esa pregunta y su estrategia metodológica para resolverlo (Batthyány & Cabrera, 2011), a esto es necesario que exista interés por parte del autor (Muñoz, 2011), así el esfuerzo y la concentración le permitirán llegar hasta la meta. Miura (2001) citado por (Sampieri, Collado, & Baptista, 2010) mencionan como como una estudiante realizó una investigación en mujeres de cierta edad, para analizar el efecto psicológico que les genera enviudar, esto debido a que su mejor amiga había sufrido esta situación y ella debió brindarle apoyo. En ocasiones las investigaciones nacen de situaciones personales que llevan al investigador a conocer ciertos fenómenos y situaciones con cierto rigor científico, pero es esa motivación la que puede llegar a desarrollar nuevos modelos o desarrollo de nuevos temas. Otra forma para definir el tema, puede suceder a partir que unos actores sociales, económicos o políticos demanden la investigación y planteen conocer el porqué de ciertas situaciones.
Análisis del espíritu emprendedor del ciudadano monteriano en la formulación de proyectos de inversión para la creación de nuevas empresas
Authors: Canabal Gúzman Javier Dario
Published: October 2019

La acertada dirección en la alcaldía de Montería en los últimos ocho años, acompañada de grandes aportes del presupuesto general de la Nación como premio a las buenas prácticas en gestión pública, ha traído consigo un alto grado de crecimiento urbanístico apalancando a su vez para que la ciudad se haya convertido en una de las diez más importantes del país. Su actividad comercial resulta sorprendente, pues además de suplir la demanda de sus propios habitantes, se busca crear un punto de confluencia con las zonas rurales aledañas. Es notable, la evolución de sectores como el de la hotelería, el ecoturismo, el comercio, la educación universitaria, la gastronomía y el transporte; pero atendiendo los resultados de proyectos presentados y aprobados en el fondo emprender, Córdoba ocupa el puesto 21 de 32 departamentos estudiados y solo cuenta con 19 pymes de 7.559 empresas.

     ¿Quién diseña entonces los proyectos de emprendimiento y hace aprovechamiento de los recursos de la Región?

     Ante esta situación se planteó el presente proyecto de investigación que busca identificar las razones de este preocupante rezago y los avances indican que el ciudadano nacido en la ciudad de Montería se encuentra viviendo en un estado de confort y relajado frente a las pocas empresas existentes.

Benefits of synergy of urban green infrastructure and integrated stormwater management approaches: theoretical perspective and examples from Vienna
Authors: Vasilevska Magdalena , Vasilevska Ljiljana
Published: October 2019

This paper deals with multiple benefits and outcomes at a lower
spatialfunctional city levels generated by the synergy of Urban Green
Infrastructure approach and integrated stormwater management approaches,
resulting from their simultaneous application in the process of urban
planning and design. The conducted research examines and analyzes key
characteristics of Green Infrastructure and integrated stormwater management
approaches, as well as their relationship in terms of principles,
spatial-functional forms, types and benefits of their implementation. Since
both of them are based on supporting and mimicking the natural environment
in urban conditions, which makes them environmentally friendly and allows a
greater presence of nature in many urban circumstances, the focus is on
investigation of two common main principles and benefits of their
implementation - closer connection with nature and increase of biodiversity
in urban environment. The research platform consists of selected examples
from Vienna which represent different types of lower spatialfunctional
levels in which both approaches are applied, making them suitable for
examining the effects of their synergy.
Land use and building regulations: The case of spatial plans for protected natural areas (Serbia)
Authors: Pantic Marijana , Zivanovic-Miljkovic Jelena , Milijic Sasa
Published: October 2019

Land use and building regulation within protected natural areas in Serbia is
specific in comparison to areas without this status. Since urban plans
define the rules and conditions limited to urban settlements and locations
of national priority (e.g. tourism resort in natural protected areas), other
areas, including significant parts of protected natural areas, rely on
spatial plans, which often contain elements of detailed urban planning (i.e.
regulation and building rules). Preservation of ecologic and environmental
functions is a priority in protected natural areas (particularly in zones of
I and II level of protection), but they are also eligible for controlled
development purposes in zone of III level of protection. Due to large
distance from administrative centre and institutions responsible for
building inspection, it is not rare case in Serbia that illegal building in
protected areas makes them more exposed to illegal actions. Therefore, this
paper focuses on the role of spatial plans in balancing between land use and
building in protected natural areas on the one hand and nature protection on
the other hand. In-depth analysis of chosen spatial plans, here is given a
comprehensive review of building and land use postulates, regulations and
different levels of protection applied in spatial planning. Starting from
the Spatial Plan of the Republic of Serbia 2010- 2020, analysis gives a
major significance to four special purpose area spatial plans of different
kind: Gornje Podunavlje Special Nature Reserve, Tisa River Multifunctional
Ecological Corridor, Kopaonik National Park and Vlasina Landscape of
Exceptional Features. Finally, there is shown diversity and systematisation
of existing measures, and contribution to understanding of challenges and
recommendations on future improvements of methodology in planning and
implementation of plans in order to enhance balance between development and
protection.
Trichinella and trichinellosis in Europe
Authors: Pozio Edoardo
Published: October 2019

Background: Trichinellosis, the proper term for the human zoonotic disease is caused by nematodes of the genus Trichinella. These zoonotic parasites show a cosmopolitan distribution in all the continents but Antarctica. They circulate in nature by synanthropic-domestic and sylvatic cycles that are correlated with each other. Today, nine species and three genotypes are recognized in this genus, all of which infect mammals, including humans, while one species also infects birds, and two other species also infect reptiles. Scope and Approach: To review the recent literature on these pathogens, which are unusual among the other nematodes in that the worm undergoes a complete developmental cycle, from larva to adult to larva, in the body of a single host, which has a profound influence on the epidemiology of trichinellosis as a zoonosis. When the cycle is complete, the muscles of the infected animal contain a reservoir of larvae capable of long-term survival. Humans and other hosts become infected by ingesting muscle tissues containing viable larvae. Key Findings and Conclusions: The main source of human infection is raw or under-cooked meat products from pig, wild boar, bear, walrus, and horses, but meat products from other animals have been implicated. Both pre-slaughter prevention and post-slaughter control can be used to prevent Trichinella infections in animals. The first involves pig management control in high containment level farms as well as continuous surveillance programs. Meat inspection is a successful post-slaughter strategy. However, continuous consumer education is of great importance in countries where meat inspection is not mandatory.
Managerial Ability and Income Smoothing
Authors: Baik Bok , Choi Sunhwa , Farber David B.
Published: October 2019

In this study, we investigate whether managerial ability is related to income smoothing and, if so, whether smoothing associated with managerial ability improves the informativeness of earnings and stock prices about future performance. Using a large sample of firms, we find that managerial ability is positively related to smoothing. More importantly, we show that high-ability managers incorporate more forward-looking information about cash flows into current earnings through smoothing, thereby enhancing earnings informativeness. We also find that smoothing associated with high-ability managers improves stock price informativeness about future cash flows. Our study should be of interest to researchers, practitioners, and others concerned with understanding the determinants and usefulness of smoothing.
RNF20 Functions as a Transcriptional Coactivator for PPARγ by Promoting NCoR1 Degradation in Adipocytes

Adipose tissue is the key organ coordinating whole-body energy homeostasis. Although it has been reported that ring finger protein 20 (RNF20) regulates lipid metabolism in the liver and kidney, the roles of RNF20 in adipose tissue have not been explored. Here, we demonstrate that RNF20 promotes adipogenesis by potentiating the transcriptional activity of peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor-γ (PPARγ). Under normal chow diet feeding, Rnf20 defective (Rnf20+/−) mice exhibited reduced fat mass with smaller adipocytes compared with wild-type littermates. In addition, high-fat diet–fed Rnf20+/− mice alleviated systemic insulin resistance accompanied by a reduced expansion of fat tissue. Quantitative proteomic analyses revealed significantly decreased levels of PPARγ target proteins in adipose tissue of Rnf20+/− mice. Mechanistically, RNF20 promoted proteasomal degradation of nuclear corepressor 1 (NCoR1), which led to stimulation of the transcriptional activity of PPARγ. Collectively, these data suggest that RNF20-NCoR1 is a novel axis in adipocyte biology through fine-tuning the transcriptional activity of PPARγ.
Análisis cuasiexperimental sobre la satisfacción del cliente para determinar la competitividad de la empresa
Authors: Cotera Regalado Esperanza , Martínez Reyes Magally
Published: October 2019

En el presente trabajo se exponen los resultados de una investigación cuasiexperimental sobre la satisfacción del cliente, donde la calidad fue un indicador nuclear para determinar la competitividad real empresarial. Aunque se trata de un aspecto subjetivo, existen estándares que garantizan que el producto efectivamente sea de calidad; y puede ser ciertamente un factor de competencia para las empresas, ya que puede ayudar a reducir costos, dar presencia y permanencia en el mercado, e impulsar la generación de empleos. Si bien es el usuario quien recibe la calidad del producto o servicio, es el empresario quien debe fomentarla. Así, se diseñó un instrumento para identificar el nivel de conocimiento sobre la satisfacción del cliente y su incidencia en la competitividad de la empresa. La población objeto de estudio estuvo conformada por 10 dueños de pequeñas y medianas empresas de Valle de Chalco, Estado de México, seleccionados de manera aleatoria. Dichos empresarios contestaron un cuestionario tipo Likert previamente validado, con un nivel de confiabilidad de 95 %, que corresponde a un alfa de Cronbach de 0.978. Aunado a ello, se llevó a cabo una investigación de campo. Los resultados permiten verificar la validez de la relación entre las variables: se obtuvieron indicadores de la falta de conocimiento por parte de los dueños sobre la incidencia de la satisfacción del cliente en la competitividad de la empresa, lo que constituye un obstáculo de crecimiento empresarial en la zona.

En relación con la ciberdelincuencia y el ciberterrorismo, se proporcionan datos sobre los posibles perfiles existentes y sobre distintos arquetipos de personas que tienen estas conductas delictivas. En lo concerniente a la ciberguerra, y debido al reducido número de estudios planteados sobre este fenómeno, se exponen los datos más relevantes sobre este hecho y se resalta la falta de estudios para describir a sus actores desde un prisma de carácter psicosociológico.
Thermo-mechanical and stratigraphic numerical forward modelling: recent advances and their joint application in the Pannonian Basin
Authors: Balázs Attila , Matenco Liviu , Granjeon Didier
Published: October 2019

Basin analysis and subsidence history provide key insights into sedimentary basin forming mechanisms. Direct observations have long been the only source of information on their thermal and lithological architecture. State of the art modelling techniques today enable the prediction and computation of their formation and evolution constrained by geological field observations, geophysical and deep borehole data. Understanding the inherent connections between large-scale tectonic and local basin-scale surface processes requires the joint application of thermo-mechanical and stratigraphic modelling techniques. To this aim, we combined the thermo-mechanical lithospheric-scale numerical code Flamar and the high-resolution 3D deterministic stratigraphic software DionisosFlow. This joint modelling method quantifies forcing factors, such as crustal and lithospheric thinning, lithospheric flexure, sea-level and climatic variations associated with water and sediment influx and sediment compaction. The modelling shows the migration of extensional deformation in space and time creating deep half-grabens. After a rapid uplift event, the subsequent post-rift times are characterized by continuous kilometre-scale differential vertical movements. The modelled tectonic subsidence and uplift rates and half-graben geometries are imported into the 3D stratigraphic modelling code. Our modelling of a 120 km × 150 km area shows that such scenarios are associated with continental alluvial to shallow-water sedimentation and footwall erosion during the early stages of the syn-rift, followed by rapid deepening during the subsequent syn-rift evolution. Finally, the basins are filled by a large-scale prograding shelf-margin slope system during the post-rift times. We differentiate between unconformities caused by tectonics, sea-level variations or auto-cyclic processes. Our tectonic and stratigraphic results are compared with geological and geophysical constraints from the Pannonian Basin of Central Europe.
Towards a high-resolution chronostratigraphy and geochronology for the Pannonian Stage: Significance of the Paks cores (Central Pannonian Basin)

A new stratigraphic standard for the open lacustrine to deltaic Pannonian Stage is emerging from the combined sedimentological, lithostratigraphical, sequence stratigraphical, biostratigraphical, seismic stratigraphical, geochronological, and magnetostratigraphical investigations of 6 long drill cores. These were drilled by Paks II Nuclear Power Plant Plc. as a preparatory step for the construction of a new power plant near the city of Paks, Central Pannonian Basin, between 2015 and 2016. The boreholes are in a distance of 8-12 km from each other, and five of them fully penetrated the local Pannonian sequence in a thickness of 390 to 662 m. Each core includes offshore clay marl deposited far from sediment entry points (Endrőd Fm), heterolithic, sandy siltstones of a <200 m high shelf-margin slope (Algyő Fm), and several stacked deltaic deposits from prodelta silts to sandy mouth bars, heterolithics, lignite and sandy channel-fills of the delta plain (Újfalu Fm). Magnetostratigraphic investigations from two cores and authigenic 10Be/9Be dating from two others were combined by means of seismic correlation between the boreholes, and thus they provide a solid geochronological and chronostratigraphic basis for the interpretation of the sedimentologial and paleontological records of the cores. The continuous representation of the earliest Pannonian (11.6–9.1 Ma) in the cores needs further investigation, as neither magnetostratigraphy nor authigenic 10Be/9Be dating gave reliable age data from the basal, condensed calcareous marls. The 9.1 to 6.5 Ma interval, however, is represented in the cores by various lithologies and abundant and sometimes excellently preserved fossils. In the deltaic succession, 8 sedimentary sequences were correlated between the cores; as their duration is not more than 400 kyr each, they can be regarded as 4th-order sequences. The paleontological record of the cores shows a very good agreement with the formerly established biochronostratigraphical system. The cores provide an insight into the evolution of the sedimentary environment and the biota of Lake Pannon between 9.1 and 6.5 Ma with a so far unprecedented temporal and spatial resolution.

Published: October 2019

Antecedentes: Helicobacter pylori es una bacteria Gram negativa, reconocida como la causa de la úlcera péptica (UP) y cáncer el gástrico (CG). Se han identificado genes de virulencia asociados con la patogenicidad del H. pylori incluyendo la isla de patogenicidad cagA y la citotoxina vacuolizante A (vacA). La frecuencia de los genes de patogenicidad se ha asociado con la localización geográfica y condiciones de vida de las personas. Pocos estudios en el Ecuador, han demostrado la relación entre los genes de patogenicidad de H. pylori y regiones geográficas de diferente altitud. Este estudio analizó los genes de patogenicidad de biopsias gástricas dos parroquias del Ecuador: una ubicada en la altura, Zumbahua (Sierra Central) y otra a nivel del mar, Shushufindi (Amazonía). Métodos: Se obtuvieron 127 muestras de biopsias gástricas embebidas en parafina de sujetos provenientes de Zumbahua (n = 90) y Shushufindi (n = 37). Mediante un análisis histopatológico se determinó la presencia de la infección y alteraciones patológicas tisulares. Se seleccionaron las muestras de los pacientes con mayor índice de infección por H. pylori (++ y +++ en el examen histopatológico) para el análisis molecular del H. pylori; se aisló su ADN y se evaluaron los genes de patogenicidad por PCR. Resultados: Se determinó la presencia de 5 casos de cáncer gástrico en la parroquia de Zumbahua, con mayor frecuencia en hombres que en mujeres. En la parroquia de Sushufindi hubo mayor prevalencia de infección por H. pylori comparada con Zumbahua. El análisis molecular de los genes de patogenicidad determinó que hubo una mayor expresión de estos en las muestras provenientes de la parroquia de Zumbahua; el 20% de las muestras amplificaron para vacAm1, 8.57% para vacAs1 y el 20% para vacAs2; mientras que para Shushufindi, únicamente el 8.0% amplificó para el gen vacAm1.Conclusiones: La prevalencia de infección por H. pylori en las muestras de las parroquias estudiadas es alta. Los genes de patogenicidad asociados con mayor virulencia provinieron de Zumbahua así como también las muestras con cáncer. Por otro lado, en las muestras de Shushufindi los genes de patogenicidad fueron menos virulentos y no hubo casos de malignidad. Es necesario establecer sistemas de tamizaje tanto para detectar cepas de H. pylori con genes de virulencia como para la detección temprana del cáncer gástrico.

Authors: Coyago-Cruza Elena , Páez Ana , Villacís Michael , Simbaña Jessica , Beltrán-Sinchiguano Elena , Coronel Manuel
Published: October 2019

El calostro bovino es una secreción mamaria que se genera aproximadamente siete días antes del parto para alimentar al becerro. El contenido de sus componentes puede llegar a ser 100 veces mayor que en la leche cruda y estudios de otros autores señalan los beneficios alimenticios y medicinales que este presenta. En tal virtud, se estudió el efecto de la aplicación de microfiltración tangencial sobre la concentración de proteínas de calostro bovino como una fuente alimenticia y medicinal. El estudio consideró vacas de la raza Holstein y sus entrecruzamientos, desarrolladas en el cantón Cayambe. Los análisis químicos (grasa, proteína total, inmunoglobulinas totales, lactosa, sólidos totales y sólidos no grasos) fueron analizados en un equipo MilkoScan, los microbiológicos (contaje de células somáticas y contaje total) en un analizador Bacto Scan, la cuantificación de inmunoglobulina G con un cromatógrafo líquido Varian y la influencia de la aplicación de microfiltración tangencial con membranas de 0,45 µm de poro. Los resultados mostraron que en la mayoría de los casos las concentraciones de los parámetros en estudio a las primeras horas presentaron elevados valores (23 a 76 % de aumento con respecto a las 36 horas). El análisis factorial mostró que las condiciones de crianza y las horas después del parto, son los factores que mayormente influyeron sobre los parámetros físico-químicos. Finalmente, la microfiltración concentró la inmunoglobulina G en un 27 %, este concentrado podría ser empleado en la elaboración de nuevos productos que presenten beneficios a la salud de los humanos.

Investiga aspectos estéticos e temáticos da literatura infantil e juvenil por meio das narrativas Fita verde no cabelo e A menina de lá, de João Guimarães Rosa, em uma aproximação crítica com a obra Fiesta en la madriguera, de Juan Pablo Villalobos. A discussão proporciona um espaço para a presença do maravilhoso e da imaginação ao abordar elementos do fantástico na mobilização do imaginário infantil nas narrativas em questão. Apresenta o que se convenciona denominar por violência e imaginário na chamada “narcoliteratura” em uma tradição ficcional que mobiliza cenas pueris em tensão via incorporação de temas “tabus” direcionados a leitores em formação. O objetivo é pensar os limites da imaginação e da ingenuidade como marcas desse gênero literário e, nesse percurso, abordar temas polêmicos, como a morte, a violência e o narcotráfico na literatura destinada a leitores infantis na América Latina.
Ambivalence of Psychic And Spatial Identity: A Study of Bharati Mukherjee’s Wife and Jasmine
Authors: Bhaumik Dr.Rajib
Published: October 2019

Postcolonial transnational counter-textuality began by affirming the contestation between estrangement and search for identity. The counter-textual mood of anti-colonial or nationalist writing finds its resources in the transcultural restlessness of writers such as Salman Rushdie, Ben Okri, Michael Ondaatje and Bharati Mukherjee. However, Mukherjee’s position is different from that of other writers of Diaspora. In the language of Jasbir Jain, ‘Diasporic writers have worked variously with their material. Ondaatje moved from culture to culture, several others have accepted the Janus-faced hyphenated self, choosing to locate themselves in hyphen, yet others like Bharati Mukherjee have shed their pasts, if not as material, at least as professions about it.

Shashi Deshpande is an outstanding novelist of Indian origin, writing about the women’s plight in a traditional society. The present paper aims to study the transformation of the protagonist Jaya, who has been playing the roles of mother and wife perfectly, feels estranged and lonely. Her married life becomes uninteresting and mechanical. Towards the end of the novel, she recovers her lost identity and tries to get rid of the silence prevalent between her and her husband. Gradually, she emerges as a “New Woman”, who is career minded, independent, confident and seeking equal rights for her. She becomes responsible and takes her life in her own control and does not like to be advised by others. The novelist has presented a woman not complying according to the wishes of her husband and who transforms herself; rather than following blindly the instructions of her husband, she achieves a sense of responsibility and decides to act accordingly.

What matters for firms? participation in Global Value Chains in Central and East European countries?
Authors: Cieślik Andrzej , Michałek Jan Jakub , Szczygielski Krzysztof
Published: October 2019

Research background: There has been an extensive body of literature on the growing importance of global value chains (GVCs) in developed and emerging economies. This literature argues that GVCs significantly affect international trade patterns and open new possibilities for participating economies to increase both their exports? quantity and quality, acquire advanced production technologies and improve the overall economic performance. However, the empirical evidence from the Central and East European (CEE) countries, especially at the firm level is still relatively scarce. The majority of existing empirical studies on GVCs in the CEE countries are based on sectoral input-output data.
Purpose of the article: In this article, we study the determinants of firm participation in GVCs using firm-level BEEPS data for 29 CEE countries. We hypothesize that larger, foreign-owned, more productive and innovative firms producing a limited range of products and employing skilled workers are more likely to be involved in GVCs.
Methods: The intensity of participation in GVCs is measured by the usage of imported inputs and the intensity of exports. The empirical study uses the BEEPS firm-level data set for the period 2011?2014 and the probit estimation method.
Findings & Value added: The assembled empirical evidence generally supports these hypotheses. In addition, we find that firms which participate in GVCs pro-duce a smaller  range of products, which means that they concentrate on their core competencies. In particular, we find that the EU membership may facilitate participation in GVCs, especially for smaller firms in the CEE countries. This article adds to the existing literature by examining the firm-level determinants of participation in GVCs using the cross-country firm-level survey conducted by the EBRD and the World Bank.

Published: October 2019

The purpose of this paper is to explore the concept of regional exponential general observability for a class of distributed parameter systems, in connection with the regional strategic sensors. Then, we give characterization of the strategic sensors in order that exponential regional general observability can be achieved. Furthermore, we apply these results to one and two dimensional systems, and various cases of sensors are considered and discussed. We also show that there exists a dynamical system for diffusion system is not exponentially general observable in the usual sense, but it may be regionally exponentially general observable.
Prognosing a severe course of asthma in children following the study of endothelial function

Published: October 2019

Background

Asthma is a common disease with increasing prevalence in children and adults. The WHO estimates that annually 15 million disability-adjusted life-years are lost, and 250,000 asthma deaths are reported worldwide. Approximately, 500,000 annual hospitalizations are due to asthma (1).

Aim

In our study, we aimed to evaluate the endothelial function in children with asthma in remission and the prognosis of severe asthma.

Materials and methods

The study involved examination of 91 children, aged 6–17 years, with persistent asthma in the remission period. Indices of endothelial function (soluble vascular molecule of intercellular adhesion-1 [sVCAM-1], concentration of stable metabolites of nitric oxide in blood serum [NO2 +NO3 ], thickness of the intima-media complex [IMC] of the common carotid artery (CCA), and endothelium-dependent dilatation of the brachial artery [FMD%]). Statistical analyses were performed with StatSoft STATISTICA Version 8 (Tulsa, OK). To determine the relation between qualitative characteristics, the criterion χ2 was used, and the procedure of multiple logistic regression analysis was performed.

Results

The endothelium parameter levels (FMD% [H = 46.02], IMC [H = 60.75], NO2
+ NO3 [H = 40.82], and sVCAM-1 [H = 76.57, p = 0.0000]) depend on the severity of the disease. The study showed that the factors that should be taken into account in prognosis of the formation of the severe course of asthma include positive family allergic history, serum sVCAM-1 and NO2 + NO3 levels, and the thickness of IMC CCA.

Conclusions

All the children with asthma in the remission period were found to have endothelial dysfunction. The degree of disruption of the function of the endothelium depends on the severity of the course of asthma. An algorithm for predicting the severe course of asthma in children has been developed.

We present the 6-year evolution of a young patient (32 years at diagnosis), smoker (10 pack years), diagnosed in September 2011 by cardiorespiratory polygraphy with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA)-apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) 82/h, mean SaO2 76%, which associate class II obesity (body mass index [BMI] 37.5 kg/m2), dyslipidemia, hypertension, mixed ventilatory dysfunction with hypoxemia and hypercapnia, pulmonary hypertension, and right bundle branch block. It was administered drug treatment, oxygen therapy, and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) with favorable evolution. One year later, we notice a significant improvement in the severity of OSA (AHI 13/h) and significant weight loss (about 24 kg). He was diagnosed with thyroid papillary carcinoma and left laterocervical node metastasis. Total thyroidectomy, treatment with radioactive iodine, and Euthirox replacement were done. In 2013, the patient presents moderate OSA (AHI 25/h) and class I obesity (BMI 31.8 kg/m2). Withdrawal of CPAP on its own initiative and weight gain (BMI 43 kg/m2) causes clinical deterioration in 2014, with diurnal drowsiness, dyspnea at rest, peripheral edema, hypoxemia, and hypercapnia, requiring admission. The cardiorespiratory polygraphic evaluation highlights severe OSA with AHI 84/h. Evolution was favorable with medication, oxygen therapy, and CPAP. Over the next 3 years, the patient continues CPAP treatment at home, but variations in body weight help improve or worsen OSA severity.
Management of Legal Processes: Statement of the problem
Authors: Schulz V. L. , Bochkarev S. A.
Published: October 2019

Introduction. The article considers the category of management from the standpoint of history, theory and philosophy. The law and the processes of its implementation in practice have been chosen as the social context within which the importance and potential of management has been studied.

Materials and methods. The article actively uses both contributions of natural science and papers written for the purpose of understanding the humani-tarian knowledge. The methodological basis of the article includes the universal method of cognizability of the world, such logical methods as induction and deduction, the achievements of comparative jurisprudence, the method of text interpretation (mainly judicial decisions and regulations).

The results of the study. The paper tries to answer the questions what management is in principle, what are the possible and acceptable forms of its manifestation in jurisprudence. The meanings in which management is used in the natural and human sciences are compared. A distinction is made between the concepts of “management of legal processes” and “public administration”.

Law enforcement processes are much rationalized, and law has maintenance of order as its highest goal. The absence of reference to management in the procedural legislation serves as an indirect but sure sign that governance in law does not exist in the form in which it is represented in the natural sciences.

Discussions and conclusions. Subject to the above it was concluded that management in law is manifested and realized in a peculiar way. It is implemented in legal processes through decentralized principles, i.e. by the participants themselves on a parity and consensual basis. The role of guides is played by symbolic means - the principles of law and the values protected by it. The role of doers is played by instrumental means - law enforcement agencies and institutions. The role of organizes is exercised by the subjects of law (individual, society and the state), and the function of consumers is realized by the subjects of specific legal relations.
