Context. Hyperluminous infrared galaxies (HLIRGs) are shown to have been more abundant in early epochs. The small samples used in earlier studies are not sufficient to draw robust statistical conclusions regarding the physical properties and the power sources of these extreme infrared (IR) bright galaxies.

Aims. We make use of multi-wavelength data of a large HLIRG sample to derive the main physical properties, such as stellar mass, star formation rate (SFR), volume density, and the contribution to the cosmic stellar mass density and the cosmic SFR density. We also study the black hole (BH) growth rate and its relationship with the SFR of the host galaxy.

Methods. We selected 526 HLIRGs in three deep fields (Boötes, Lockman-Hole, and ELAIS-N1) and adopted two spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting codes: CIGALE, which assumes energy balance, and CYGNUS, which is based on radiative transfer models and does not adopt an energy balance principle. We used two different active galactic nucleus (AGN) models in CIGALE and three AGN models in CYGNUS to compare results that were estimated using different SED fitting codes and a range of AGN models.

Results. The stellar mass, total IR luminosity, and AGN luminosity agree well among different models, with a typical median offset of 0.1 dex. The SFR estimates show the largest dispersions (up to 0.5 dex). This dispersion has an impact on the subsequent analysis, which may suggest that the previous contradictory results could partly have been due to the different choices in methods. HLIRGs are ultra-massive galaxies, with 99% of them having stellar masses larger than 1011 M⊙. Our results reveal a higher space density of ultra-massive galaxies than what was found by previous surveys or predicted via simulations. We find that HLIRGs contribute more to the cosmic SFR density as redshift increases. In terms of BH growth, the two SED fitting methods provide different results. We can see a clear trend in whereby SFR decreases as AGN luminosity increases when using CYGNUS estimates. This may possibly imply quenching by AGN in this case, whereas this trend is much weaker when using CIGALE estimates. This difference is also influenced by the dispersion between SFR estimates obtained by the two codes.

Authors: Kozhemyakin Leonid , Osipova Maria , Nikitin Vladislav
Published: July 2021

The article presents, substantiates and tests the author's methodological tools based on a set of economic and mathematical models reflecting the processes of formation, development, state and organization behavior control of spatial cluster-network integration of the oil and gas complex. The object of the research is the interregional and intersectoral interactions of the oil and gas complex, considered by the example of the regions of the Volga Federal District of the Russian Federation. The authors understand spatial cluster-network integration as a production pool of mutually beneficial cooperative ties of autonomous business structures based on related interdependent types of economic activity and forming a common space of socio-economic interests regardless of industry and territorial affiliation. The organization behavior control of spatial cluster-network integration requires taking into account the interests of all interested stakeholders, which can be represented using the structural-functional model of the four-link spiral concept. This organization behavior control approach, based on the cluster-network nature of spatial integration, will strengthen territorial and sectoral relationships; a harmonized synthesis of disparate resource potentials will contribute to the rationalization of their use; form the competitive advantages of business structures, the region and the country as a whole.

Impact of information-infrastructure mechanism of self-development management at industrial enterprises on employee engagement: empirical evidence
Authors: Markov Denis , Markova Nina , Chernovalova Galina
Published: July 2021

The work deals with the problems of a self-development organization considered as a self-organization system without hierarchy and employee position. Such kind of management is realized by self-management teams having full authority, responsibility and focus on the result. An individual and group motivation mechanism uses the employee potential to achieve one’s ambition targets. The employee and one’s potential are engaged with a maximum power in all fields of activity. Enterprises management explores employee engagement to estimate and manage this process. Each manager has enough cases when employee goes far beyond job responsibilities to achieve the result. This employee is engaged taking an initiative and informal responsibility. Engagement is a multidimensional construction, which demonstrates employee wishes to invest self-resources (knowledge, skills, competences, emotions and power) in enterprises activity. Engagement is a positive moment implying active involvement, loyalty and direct work. A lot of engagement investigations are aimed at management, result and employee’s participation in organization management. The study of employee’s initiative is a part of employee’s engagement according to infrastructure and information factors at industrial enterprises in Perm region described in the article.

Effectiveness of participation in public social partnership: new views and judgments
Authors: Arbuzova Alena , Pazdnikova Natalya
Published: July 2021

The paper is devoted to the problems of public social partnership, the importance of the participation of the government, society and business in it is highlighted. The aim of the paper is to demonstrate the need to study the relations of social partnership and the importance of evaluating the effectiveness of the participation of government, society and business in them. Relations between the partnership actors are developing unpredictably, but the directions of state policy demonstrate the vector that is set in Russian practice. The authors analyze the existing theories in the field of social partnership and highlight the theory of stakeholders. The categories “public social partnership” and “public management of labor resources” are formulated. A system of indicators in the actor context is proposed, which assesses the level of participation of each of the partnership actors in the author’s ideology of evaluating the effectiveness of participation. The authors’ conclusions support the fact that the effectiveness of actors’ participation cannot be assessed without a clear understanding of the social policy mechanisms used, as presented in the Russian regulatory framework.
“Western Gates of the Urals”: geocultural branding of a small city
Authors: Dianov Sergey , Dianova Yuliya , Basarieva Lilia , Poluyanova Olga
Published: July 2021

The article presents an analysis of the image resources of Vereshchagino -a small town in the Perm region, which should be used in the process of implementing the strategy of its geocultural branding. In popular scientific works and mass media, the city is called the “Western Gate of the Urals”, meaning that the Vereshchagino railway station is a key point, bypassing which, freight and passenger trains leave the Ural region. In 2023, Vereshchagino station will celebrate 125 years since the moment of its foundation. At the beginning of the XXI century, the dynamic development of the urban environment in Vereschagino was interrupted. The municipal authorities missed the opportunity to pursue a policy of territorial marketing branding, to actively promote the brand images of the town in the Ural geocultural space. Today, Vereshchagino has accumulated typical problems for a provincial town – demographic, communal, and socio-cultural ones. Urban communities express dissatisfaction with the visual and aesthetic appearance of the urban environment. According to the author’s point of view, the development and implementation of the Vereshchagino geocultural branding strategy is a progressive solution that allows creating creative industries in the city and ensuring sustainable socio-economic development. As a methodological basis, we used the conceptual ideas of the creative action of the British scientist Ch. Landry, as well as the postulates of the theory of geocultural branding of the city by the Russian researcher D. N. Zamyatin.

Authors: Rastorgueva Elena
Published: July 2021

This article focuses on examining new specific practical recommendations for delivering feedback in the process of staff management in organizations by applying the resources of emotional intelligence. Managers’ I-statement mistakes, imperceptible at first sight, are analyzed and explained from the point of view of their psychological correctness; ways of correcting them are presented. In detail, with real-life examples of the feedback in the organizations, it is explained how a leader can take into account the psychological difficulties of feedback perception and increase its effectiveness. Thus, the following mistakes of the feedback are analyzed: the feeling the one giving feedback is not mentioned at all; his feeling is generalized; it is determined in an unspecified way or expressed to a person in general; the person’s behavior, which evokes a feeling, is not described at all or is described in an unspecified way; it is not specified what exactly has caused a feeling in a communicative situation; a conclusion on the person’s actions and the person in general as a generalization of his actions; exaggerating; identifying a trait of character of someone’s actions as a generalization of his actions; emphasis; describing internal processes of another person; expressing another person’s attitude to something or someone; a subjective evaluation; interpreting a person’s actions; an instruction (lecturing, sermonizing); a tirade; a mockery; an accusation; comparing a person with someone; a condemnation; a threat, an insult, a humiliating statement; condescending phrases; a wish; a request. Correct I-statements are a universal mechanism of self-regulation, self-support.
Scientific organization of innovative labour
Authors: Kuznetsov Andrey , Zakharov Nikolai , Perfiljeva Marina
Published: July 2021

The industrial revolutions that have passed so far have been an alternation of “machine revolutions” and “labor organization revolutions”. The third industrial revolution, which created the modern digital communication world, became a prerequisite for the formation of a new organization of work. This new organization is, first of all, the organization of labor of workers involved in the development of a new product, or the organization of innovative labor of workers. The study of the types of innovative labor shows that at least three models need serious improvement, which the authors have assigned the following names: “design” model, “competitive” and “creative”. The scientific organization of innovative labor involves identifying for each model: necessary and sufficient working conditions, including everyday and professional comfort; determination of conditions for the formation of motivational guidelines adequate to their activities among members of collectives engaged in innovative work; developing a clear incentive program based on legal and simple principles of rewarding and punishment.
Social aspects of innovation management in digital sector
Authors: Kolesnichenko Milana , Burova Olga
Published: July 2021

Innovation management in the digital sector requires taking into account the institutional, socio-structural and socio-cultural context. The article discusses the thesis about unevenness of digitalization in different spheres of society and for different social groups. The actual implementation and use of innovations in everyday life depends not only on development of infrastructure and digital literacy, but also on emerging social norms, including associated with peculiarities of culture of society, belonging to the “artificial” or “natural” type. Artificial intelligence and digital innovations affect the field of health, human corporeality, bioethics, biosociality, etc. There are new sociological approaches which make it possible to study the management of innovations, for example, atypical sociology, augmented reality, concept of posthumanism, etc. An information policy is needed that allows representatives of social groups to perceive innovations more adequately.

Authors: Ovchinnikova Anna , Topoleva Tatyana
Published: July 2021

Development of the innovative economy in Russia predetermines the need to adapt to new challenges and global economic trends. World experience demonstrates the effectiveness of the acceleration mechanism in supporting innovative projects, expanding the network interaction of the elements of innovative ecosystems, and accelerating the implementation of breakthrough ideas. The existing imbalance in the socio-economic development of the Russian regions, the differentiation of their resource potentials determine the search for institutional solutions that activate the innovation process. The conceptual and methodological basis for acceleration platforms and foreign and domestic experience of business accelerators are analyzed. The stages of change management in the context of acceleration logic are systematized. These are hackathon, foresight, acceleration, project development. The article substantiates the expediency of acceleration of innovations in the Udmurt Republic as an institutional element of the innovative environment that meets the specifics of the military-industrial complex, the declared diversification of defense industries and actualization of the request to increase the share of high-tech civilian products in the total volume. The mission and goals of the accelerator and the main program stages are described. The graphical model of a regional accelerator is presented. It integrates key elements of the innovation environment. The result is stimulation of the innovation process, support of the technological entrepreneurship, strong regional innovative competencies, qualitative growth of project activities, which will significantly increase the level of competitiveness of regional enterprises and the role of the region in the global economic system.

On methodological individualism, holism and management in the light “Tectology” by A.A. Bogdanov
Authors: Antonov Alexey
Published: July 2021

The consideration for the improvement of the efficiency of social economy made researchers look for names, views and methods which were not fully appreciated. This includes the general organizational science which occupies a prominent position by A.A. Bogdanov. There is no doubt that the ideas of A.A. Bogdanov are reflected in systems theory, cybernetics, medicine and philosophy of technology, aesthetics, linguistics and other disciplines. However they had little influence on economy, despite the fact that A.A. Bogdanov was a recognized expert in this area. This paper tries to fill this gap to some extent, and show that the ideas of Tectology are very relevant in modern economic discussions, including in the debate between methodological individualism and methodological holism. A.A. Bogdanov did not set out to study the organization of relations between people in the production process. This is the purpose of modern management. However, his approach to the study of the relationship between an individual and a team, the analysis of the conditions for the appearance of emergent effects in industrial cooperation deserve to be considered in economic theory and in management practice. Moreover, this is correlates to the modern trend to discover and study and, ultimately, use intangible factors of increasing the productivity of social economy in favor of man. In addition, the organizational views of the works of A.A. Bogdanov allow taking a fresh look at the real relationship between methodological holism and methodological individualism both in the structure of management and economy in general.
Conceptual approach to depreciation potential
Authors: Shchukina Mariya
Published: July 2021

The paper considers the category of “economic potential”, reveals the approaches of researchers to the understanding of economic potential. Investment potential is one of the components of economic potential. The presented indicators (factors) reflecting the investment potential do not reflect the sources of investment in fixed assets. In this regard, the author proposes to introduce the concept of “depreciation potential”. The content of the depreciation potential is clarified. The need for the importance of the use of depreciation charges as a source of funding is substantiated. The author proposes to single out the real and nominal depreciation fund, the ratio of which allows calculating the coefficient (index) of the use of the depreciation fund, which is one of the indicators to assess the depreciation potential. The proposed coefficient is calculated on the basis of statistical data from the Perm Territory. The obtained values indicate the intended use of the depreciation fund of enterprises of the Perm Territory.

Authors: Belmas Svetlana , Akatov Nikolay , Kosyakin Sergey , Belmas Sergey
Published: July 2021

The paper presents the results of the assessment of the ability of a company to initiate and implement development projects. As a criterion for this ability, the authors propose a model for the assessment of the initiating impulse of changes. The authors propose the definition of this concept and present a model for its assessment based on a group of critical factors (willingness to act, responsibility, influence, faith and motives). A distinctive feature of the model is the proposal for a scheme for the formation of an impulse, which includes the stages of motivation, synthesis of activity and the formation of impulse itself. The paper presents a cognitive model and assesses the impulse formation depending on the value and significance of the measured critical factors.
Non-cognitive factors in the development of combinatorial thinking in future elementary school teachers
Authors: Savenkov Aleksander I. , Romanova Marina A.
Published: July 2021

The article describes the study of the effectiveness of methodological techniques used in classes with students training to become teachers of mathematics in elementary schools in accordance with the methods of teaching mathematics to elementary school students. The methods proposed by the authors activate the mutual connection between logical thinking and several non-cognitive abilities of students. This reciprocal relationship is seen as a means to diagnose and develop students’ combinatorial abilities. The study uses testing methods with subsequent mathematical processing. The non-cognitive factors (level of general cultural development, general humanitarian training, features of the micro-environment, as well as the level of general psychosocial development, etc.) are assessed through the methods of academic success diagnostics, expert assessment of the level of general cultural development, and assessment of the level of psychosocial development. The obtained data were compared with the level of development of students’ logical thinking determined through the Raven test. The formative stage deployed original methodological methods allowing to stimulate students’ interest in composing textual mathematical tasks. The proposed methodological solutions to the problems of diagnosing and developing combinatorial thinking understood as a combination of logical thinking and several non-cognitive factors in future teachers show themselves effective. The proposed hypothesis is that composing textual mathematical tasks for elementary school students is an effective means of developing combinatorial abilities in students. The main conditions stimulating the effectiveness of non-cognitive factors are the increase in the level of an individual’s general cultural development, the expansion of their outlook, and the development of knowledge base, the creation of the “right” atmosphere for creativity, and stimulation of metaphorical thinking in the learning process.
Developing the emotional intelligence of senior preschoolers through various types and forms of social practice
Authors: Savenkova Tatiana D.
Published: July 2021

The article presents the results of an empirical study aimed at assessing the effectiveness of the author’s program for developing the emotional intelligence of senior preschoolers through various types and forms of social practice. Like other personality traits, the emotional intelligence of senior preschoolers manifests itself and develops in various types of social practice. One of the most widespread options is different joint activities with peers and adults. Joint activity with peers and adults based on more complex forms of interaction is regarded as the most accessible option for the social practice of children. The article presents a model of children’s emotional intelligence that serves as a basis of the author’s program of its development in senior preschoolers through various types and forms of social practice. The diagnostic assessment of the emotional intelligence of senior preschoolers was conducted with the use of the author’s methodology developed for teachers and psychologists of preschool educational organizations. Teachers of preschool educational organizations participated in the study as experts assessing the emotional intelligence of children. The results were determined based on the average values provided by each expert for each child and indicator. The study has demonstrated that an important condition for the effective development of the emotional intelligence of senior preschoolers is specially organized social practice based on the child’s gradual mastering of the basic components of social intelligence. To gradually improve the emotional intelligence of senior preschoolers, it is necessary to include them in more complex joint activities with peers and adults.
The role of educational motivation in the creativity of intellectually gifted primary schoolchildren
Authors: Shumakova Natalia B.
Published: July 2021

The importance of external and internal motivation in the academic success of students and their persistence in achieving educational and cognitive goals is considered within the framework of the theory of self-determination. The role of different types of educational motivation in the development of the creative potential of students remains insufficiently studied, especially in relation to primary schoolchildren. The research objective is to clarify the role of different motives for learning activity through differences in the figurative and verbal creativity of intellectually gifted primary schoolchildren on the threshold of adolescence. The study involved 96 intellectually gifted primary schoolchildren of the 3rd-4th grades (the average age is 9.6; the number of boys and girls is the same). The internal and external motivation of their educational activity was studied using the “Scale of educational motivation” developed by T.O. Gordeeva based on the Academic Self-Regulation Questionnaire (SRQ-A) by Ryan and Connell. Divergent creativity was analyzed using N.B. Shumakova’s methodology “Figurative and verbal creativity”. An ambiguous relationship has been revealed between different types of motivation and indicators of verbal and imaginative creativity. Internal cognitive motivation and self-development are reliably and directly related to imaginative fluency (r=0.28 and r=0.24), while external motivation (parental regulation) and imaginative creativity (including imaginative originality and elaboration) are linked reversely (r=-0.31, r=-0.24). The regression analysis has demonstrated that external motivation (learning for the sake of fulfilling the parents’ requirements) at primary school age is a negative predictor of imaginative creativity and originality of intellectually gifted students in their adolescence (F=6.91, β=-0.321, p=0.01 and F=6.57, β=-0.314, p=0.01).

Published: July 2021

The article aims at revealing the functional state of girls aged between six-seven and 10-11 years with a generally high level of key motor skills due to the intensive use of digital technologies. Experimental studies comprised practically healthy girls aged between six-seven (n>1,200 and n=60) and 10-11 years (n>1,000 and n=74). To assess the information load of children, the authors of the article determined the total screen time and the digitalization of their living conditions. The level of digitalization was studied based on a modified Informatization Index (Imod). The heart rate and blood pressure were recorded. Based on these measurements, the authors calculated average pressure, the vegetative index of Kerdo, double product, the Myznikov index and changes in the functional index. They measured chest circumference, the length and weight of the body to calculate the body mass index. The battery of motor fitness tests included a 30-meter sprint, front bend, three sets of a 10-meter shuttle run, sit-ups, a long jump, a 6-minute run, PWC170. Physical activity was studied using the adapted questionnaire “Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ)” and the timing of motor actions. During the intensive use of digital technologies, girls aged between six-seven and 10-11 years with a high level of motor abilities could be characterized by the most favorable functional state of their body in comparison with the same children with insufficient motor fitness. They had the hypertonicity of the parasympathetic division of the vegetative nervous system, the predominance of the autonomous regulation of the heart rate over central regulation, the expanded adaptive capabilities of the organism, harmonious physical development and high physical activity. The study results give reason to believe that an increase in the level of motor fitness of preschoolers and primary school children can have a significant effect on improving the functional state of their bodies due to the intensive use of digital technologies.

Published: July 2021

The paper deals with the problem of representation of the imitation processes and productive activities in school essays. The prerequisites for the study are approaches to the analysis of school essays as a type of creative work, which reflects one or another degree of imitative communicative activity of a person, as well as the relevance of the problems of determining the features of the integration of reproductive and productive activities in communication, the representation of the creativity of a linguistic personality in the text. Solving these problems allows us to determine the ways of actualizing the creative component of preparation for essays and translating it from a potential state into a real one. The purpose of the study is to determine the conditions for the realization and indicators of the reproductive and productive components in the communicative activities of the author of the essay and the conditions for the dynamics of their communicative state. The following methods were used content analysis, communicative and structural/semantic analysis of essays, analysis of linguistic marking of the processes of imitation and creativity in texts. For the first time, the paper reviews the awareness of the communicative intention and genre characteristics of the sample as the leading condition for the implementation of imitation and creativity in school essays, describes the indicators of the dynamics of the communicative state from the state of imitation to the state of creativity, which are correlated with creative abilities: the multiplicity, diversity, and consistency of micro themes (indicators of thinking flexibility), the balance of the boundaries of the author’s intention (an indicator of the ability to see the essence of the problem, the subject of speech), the transformation of speech cliches (an indicator of the ability to resist stereotypes). The authors also propose a typology of reproductive, reproductive/productive, and productive communication skills of school students: the ability to copy the genre frame, interpret the sources of the author’s intention, correct the system of structural and semantic components of the text of the essay.

Published: July 2021

Since 2014, scholars have been studying the professional burnout of medical workers following the order of health care. In 2017, the authors of the article began to analyze the causes of burnout in teachers, including those who work with gifted children. The study of burnout is a socially significant task as the high-level burnout of doctors and teachers leads to a decrease in the quality of work, staff turnover, health problems and economic losses. The study aims at seeking universal approaches to the diagnostics, prevention and correction of burnout. The authors consider professional burnout as a combination of interdependent components: psychological, somatic and psychosomatic. In this case, it was necessary to study professional burnout and morbidity with temporal disability with due regard to age, sex, length of service and place of work, as well as to calculate the economic damage from the above-mentioned morbidity. They should also determine the significance of work experience and professional qualities in the formation of burnout and morbidity. To study professional burnout, the authors used proven, reliable and valid methods: diagnostic tests (questionnaire to reveal the emotional burnout degree by V.V. Boyko); questionnaire to measure professional burnout by K. Maslach and S. Jackson (abridged by N. E. Vodopianova). Morbidity with temporal disability and economic damage were considered with the help of statistical analysis, modeling and the PPP Statistica software. To determine professionally significant personality traits, the authors used the Wiesbaden questionnaire, cluster analysis using the Chebyshev similarity measure and the Kendall rank correlation coefficient to confirm the results of cluster analysis. The authors have compared the burnout of teachers working with gifted children with that experienced by rural teachers and doctors. They have identified age groups that are most susceptible to burnout and factors influencing the burnout of teachers.
Students involvement in achieving creative goals within a digital educational environment
Authors: Popov Leonid Mihajlovich , Ustin Pavel Nikolaevich
Published: July 2021

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the educational process acquired distance learning techniques when technical teaching aids gained much more significance for mediating the real interaction of students and their teachers. At the same time, emotional-intonational interaction (the main method of imposing influence) became extremely limited. The conditions for creating the effect of involvement have changed and scholars need to consider the phenomenon of involvement, its psychological mechanisms, strategies used by teachers and students in digital learning. The research objective is to determine the model of involvement of participants in educational activity in the context of distance (digital) learning based on the analysis of the Russian and foreign approaches to the types and aspects of involvement. The main aspects of involvement include cognitive, emotional, behavioral, activity-based, motivational, socio-psychological and physical. These aspects represent the external and internal factors of the spatial side of the personality-based activity model. The novelty of the spatial and temporal model consists in the use of all spatial factors in sequent time phases of involvement: preparatory, activity-based, evaluative-correctional. The preparatory phase has emotional, motivational and semantic aspects. The activity-based phase comprises cognitive-behavioral and socio-psychological aspects. The evaluative-correctional phase aims at assessing both preparatory and activity-based phases according to the following system: A-high, B-moderate, C-low. The decision to adjust involvement is based on expert assessments (AA, AB, BA, AC, etc.). The authors suggest long-term and short-term options for implementing the involvement model with their methods, expected results and implementation mechanisms. The short-term version of the involvement model is realized through the digital monitoring of emotional and cognitive responses of a person in a digital environment. The authors also highlight the possibility of managing and self-managing students’ involvement in educational activities within a digital environment.

Published: July 2021

Work with gifted students requires a teacher to have special personal and professionally important qualities and creativity occupies a special place among them. A creative teacher can understand the peculiarities of behavior and worldview of a gifted child and possesses the competencies of organizing further development of the creative activity of special children, as well as their relationships with peers. The study is based on the concepts of axiological, humanistic, systemic, and activity approaches, the theory of convergent and divergent thinking, the teachings of an individual as a person and subject, of creativity as a process and a result, the creative nature of a teacher’s work, and theories addressing the creative essence of personality. The stage of university training is deliberately chosen for the study of the problem of development of a teacher’s creativity as a foundation for work with gifted students since the student age is the most sensitive period of this process. In the process of higher education, the development of a future teacher’s creativity in conjunction with their professional and personal qualities is essential as a condition for effective work with gifted students. The identified key psychological and pedagogical conditions for the development of creativity in professional activity focused on work with gifted students include the professional activity orientation of future teachers to work with gifted children, professional knowledge, skills, and competencies focusing on gifted children, and psychological qualities of professional importance for work with gifted students. The article provides a specified definition of creativity, characterizes the signs of a teacher’s creativity, and describes the patterns, conditions, and stages of development of a future teacher’s creativity in the educational process in a higher education institution. The directions for further scientific theoretical and practical activities in the process of development of a future teacher’s creativity in parallel with training to work with gifted children are proposed. A promising direction of work is determining the ways to combine the operational and substantive sides of a teacher’s activity in work with gifted children.

The complex concept of “the humanitarian potential of mathematics” needs to update the educational environment of elementary schools and universities, as well as the relationship of participants in the educational process. The humanization of natural sciences requires the development of new elective courses, cognitive tasks, various dialogues and search activities of participants in the learning process. In the context of mathematics, this phenomenon has many meanings. The main direction in this research is the paradigm of personality-oriented education aimed at the development of general cultural components and the formation of students’ values-based attitude to the surrounding world. While considering the humanitarian potential of mathematics, it is important to take into account its aesthetic, historical, linguistic, activity-based and applied components. The authors of the article dwell on the linguistic component of humanitarian mathematics. They describe a new teaching method improving the speech of a mathematics teacher of elementary school. In addition, the authors consider the possibilities of using the digital educational platform Yandex.Textbook as a source of modern didactic materials and various representations of mathematical knowledge. By using the content of Yandex.Textbook in extracurricular activities and elective courses in mathematics, it is possible to develop the creative imagination of students and expand their cultural horizons. Despite a large number of mathematics textbooks for elementary school, there is a need to create an educational complex based on the humanization of mathematics education. The same task is solved by the developers of teaching aids and elective courses for students, i.e. future mathematics teachers.

In 2020, nearly 30,000 published references appeared in the PubMed for the search term “cardiac surgery.” While SARS-CoV-2 affected the number of surgical procedures, it did not affect outcomes reporting. Using the PRISMA approach, we selected relevant publications and prepared a results-oriented summary. We reviewed primarily the fields of coronary and conventional valve surgery and their overlap with interventional alternatives. The coronary field started with a discussion on trial data value and their interpretation. Registry comparisons of coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention confirmed outcomes for severe coronary artery disease and advanced comorbidities with CABG. Multiple arterial grafting was best. In aortic valve surgery, meta-analyses of randomized trials report that transcatheter aortic valve implantation may provide a short-term advantage but long-term survival may be better with classic aortic valve replacement (AVR). Minimally invasive AVR and decellularized homografts emerged as hopeful techniques. In mitral and tricuspid valve surgery, excellent perioperative and long-term outcomes were presented for structural mitral regurgitation. For both, coronary and valve surgery, outcomes are strongly dependent on surgeon expertise. Kidney disease increases perioperative risk, but does not limit the surgical treatment effect. Finally, a cursory look is thrown on aortic, transplant, and assist-device surgery with a glimpse into the current stand of xenotransplantation. As in recent years, this article summarizes publications perceived as important by us. It does not expect to be complete and cannot be free of individual interpretation. We aimed to provide up-to-date information for decision-making and patient information.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft failure rate has been reported to be greater than 5% at 5 years. Our study evaluated ACL excursion with anatomic and nonanatomic femoral and tibial tunnels to determine optimal flexion angle to tension the ACL to minimize excursion. Ten cadaveric knee specimens were used. The ACL was sectioned and the femoral and tibial attachments were marked. A 1/16-inch drill created a tunnel in the center of the ACL footprint on the tibia and femur and additional tunnels were made 5 mm from this. A suture was passed through each tunnel combination and attached to a string potentiometer. The knee was ranged from full extension to 120 degrees of flexion for 10 cycles while mounted in a custom fixture. The change in length (excursion) of the suture during movement was recorded for each combination of femoral and tibial tunnels. Anatomic reconstruction of the ACL with tunnel placement in the center of the femoral and tibial footprint did not result in an isometric graft, with excursion of the ACL during knee motion of 7.46 mm (standard deviation [SD]: 2.7mm), greatest at 2.84 degrees of flexion (SD: 4.22). The tunnel combination that resulted in the least excursion was a femoral footprint 5 mm anterior to the femoral and 5 mm posterior to the tibial footprint (4. 2mm, SD: 1.37 mm). The tunnel combination that resulted in the most excursion utilized femoral footprint 5 mm proximal to the femoral and 5 mm posterior to the tibial footprint (9.81 mm, SD: 2.68 mm). Anatomic ACL reconstruction results in significant excursion of the ACL throughout motion. If not tensioned properly, the ACL can stretch during range of motion, potentially leading to rerupture. To prevent stretching of the graft, the current biomechanical study recommends tensioning an anatomic ACL reconstruction at its point of maximal excursion, or between 0 and 5 degrees of flexion. The level of evidence is IV.
