Authors: Shanbehzadeh Mostafa , Orooji Azam , Kazemi-Arpanahi Hadi
Published: July 2021

Introduction: The COVID-19 epidemic is currently fronting the worldwide health care systems with many qualms and unexpected challenges in medical decision-making and the effective sharing of medical resources. Machine Learning (ML)-based prediction models can be potentially advantageous to overcome these uncertainties.
Objective: This study aims to train several ML algorithms to predict the COVID-19 in-hospital mortality and compare their performance to choose the best performing algorithm. Finally, the contributing factors scored using some feature selection methods.
Material and Methods: Using a single-center registry, we studied the records of 1353 confirmed COVID-19 hospitalized patients from Ayatollah Taleghani hospital, Abadan city, Iran. We applied six feature scoring techniques and nine well-known ML algorithms. To evaluate the models’ performances, the metrics derived from the confusion matrix calculated.
Results: The study participants were 1353 patients, the male sex found to be higher than the women (742 vs. 611), and the median age was 57.25 (interquartile 18-100). After feature scoring, out of 54 variables, absolute neutrophil/lymphocyte count and loss of taste and smell were found the top three predictors. On the other hand, platelet count, magnesium, and headache gained the lowest importance for predicting the COVID-19 mortality. Experimental results indicated that the Bayesian network algorithm with an accuracy of 89.31% and a sensitivity of 64.2 % has been more successful in predicting mortality.
Conclusion: ML provides a reasonable level of accuracy in predicting. So, using the ML-based prediction models facilitate more responsive health systems and would be beneficial for timely identification of vulnerable patients to inform appropriate judgment by the health care providers.

Authors: Akbari Narjes , Salehiniya Hamid , Abbaszadeh Hamid
Published: July 2021

Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of COVID-19 in dentists and dental assistants and their associated signs and symptoms.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using an online survey from 9th to 23th May 2020. The sample size was 385. The questionnaire was registered at Porsline website. The questionnaire included questions about infection of dentists, dental assistants and their families with COVID-19, signs and symptoms, paraclinical tests, and treatments. The data were entered into Excel and SPSS software and analyzed using logistic regression test.
Results: From all responding dentists, 15.8% were suspected of having covid-19. Based on symptoms, only 1.6% of dentists were highly suspicious for COVID-19. Only 0.78% of dentists were definitely positive for COVID-19 based on paraclinical tests. Symptoms were often very mild to moderate in severity. Among dental assistants, 5.5% were suspected of having COVID-19. Based on symptoms, none of dentists’ assistants were highly suspicious for COVID-19. None of dental assistants were definitely positive for COVID-19 based on paraclinical tests. Symptoms were often very mild to moderate in severity. Logistic regression showed that the odds of infection with Corona was higher in government-sector dentists than in the private sector (OR: 1.189; 95% C.I: 0.812-1.742), in specialist dentists than in general (OR: 1.903; 95% C.I: 0.532-2.245), and in dentists between the ages of 30-60 years old than under the age of 30 (OR: 3.647; 95% C.I: 0.840-15.835). Conclusion: Despite the fact that dentistry is a high-risk job for COVID-19 infection, the overall prevalence of COVID-19 in dentists and their assistants might be very low and the severity of symptoms in case of infection is probably mild.
Growth Factor: an Important Factor in Determining the Fate of Outbreaks
Authors: Alimohamadi Yousef , Sepandi Mojtaba , Teymouri Taher , Hosamirudsari Hadiseh
Published: July 2021

Introduction: Epidemic curves are a type of time series data consisting of the number of events that occur over a period of time. The time unit in this data can be a day, a week, or a month, etc.
Methods: In the current letter, the authors tried to explain the growth factor and its effect on epidemic curves by using some literature.
Results: In the outbreaks setting, the number of cases can increase with different patterns. When the number of cases is increasing exponentially, it means that the number of cases is increasing at a certain speed, which is determined by a factor called an exponential growth factor. When this factor is greater than one, it means that the cases are increasing exponentially, and when this coefficient is equal to 1, it means that we have reached an inflection point that we will face a change in the growth rate of the cases.
Conclusion: Some factors such as reducing the contact between infected and healthy people, run the social distancing program, and so on can have an effective role in decreasing epidemic growth factor and controlling the epidemic.

Abstract :

Aim:

To raise awareness, regarding the scope of practice in Pediatric Dentistry, among medical practitioners working in the Pediatrics Department.

Material and Methods: 

Members of the Office of Director of Dentistry in Hafr Al Batin visited all the hospitals and conducted a paper-based survey. Pediatricians and resident doctors working in the pediatric department were asked to fill a questionnaire. The questionnaire elicited information regarding personal details, knowledge, approach and awareness towards pediatric oral health. A total of 122 responses were collected, and their results analyzed.  

Results :  

A total of 122 responses were collected of which 62 were pediatricians and 60 were physicians. The average age was 41 years. Most Pediatricians knew about Pediatric dentistry as a separate specialty in dentistry whereas most physicians were unaware of it. The scope of practice of pediatric dentists, especially in handling patients with special needs were not known to many of them. The overall response was unsatisfactory.

 

Conclusion: 

Most of the consultants and specialists Pediatricians were aware of Pediatric Dentistry as a distinct specialty. The survey found out that a significant number of doctors were oblivious of the scope of practice, especially in the management of patients with special needs, under general anesthesia. A dedicated CME program was conducted to spread awareness among the concerned doctors, and suggestions made to improve the services.

Published: July 2021

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a pandemic infection that emerged in December 2019 leading to an outbreak worldwide. We aimed to investigate the hematological parameters and coagulation profiles specifically for the referral of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients to intensive care unit (ICU) due to the severity of illness to determine a pathognomonic association of infection severity and the hematological markers. The pathognomonic markers could assist physicians in better management of the infection to reduce mortality and morbidity. Thirty patients infected with COVID-19 who were receiving treatment during November and October 2020, in the ICU at Asir Central Hospital, Asir Region, Saudi Arabia, were recruited. The age of patients ranged between 30 and 90 years old. COVID-19 patients in the ICU displayed a statistical reduction in red blood cells (RBCs), hemoglobin (HBG), and hematocrit (HCT). Leukocytosis, neutrophilia, thrombocytopenia, and lymphocytopenia were significant in ICU COVID-19 patients.�Hematological parameters and coagulation profiles may be used as signs to predict the severity of the coronavirus infection. COVID-19 cases in the ICU showed a dramatic change in hematological parameters and coagulation profiles, indicating that the virus may interfere with hemoglobin, platelet, and immune cell functions through either inhibition or stimulation, leading to severe complications.
Increasing the Efficiency of Milling Stainless Steels by Using Lubricating-Cooling Technological Medium
Authors: Vaniev E.R. , Skakun V.V. , Dzhemilov E.Sh. , Abdulkerimov I.D.
Published: July 2021

This article considers the possibility of increasing the efficiency of end milling by using a modified lubricating-cooling technological medium, based on a water-miscible cutting fluid. The conditions for the effective use of modified coolant in processing stainless steels ensuring a decrease in cutting forces and therefore a decrease in vibrations, which contributes to an increase in the quality of manufactured products have been determined. A decrease in cutting forces is due to the presence of oleic acid in the modified cutting fluid, containing surfactants, forming a dense lubricating film on the surface of the cutting tool. When mixing oleic acid in a water-miscible cutting fluid, a special soap solution significantly improving the solubility is used. However, over time, stratification of liquids occurs. To ensure the homogeneity of the medium, a special device has been developed that allows continuous mixing of the compositions, due to the presence of impellers with differently oriented blades. To save a lubricant, the technology of minimum lubrication was used, which allows the lubricant to be supplied to the cutting zone in portions (dosed) using the Noga Minicool device.

Authors: Tyshkevich V.N. , Nosenko V.A. , Sarazov A.V. , Orlov S.V.
Published: July 2021

The article discusses the proposed algorithm and method for determining the optimal grinding conditions for linear bearing guides of low rigidity, which ensure meeting the specified requirements for the quality of the processed surface (surface roughness parameter Ra, no grinding burns and surface flatness tolerance) at maximum process productivity. Input factors (grinding wheel hardness, radial feed, table feed speed) are parameters for optimizing the grinding process. Mathematical models of the output factors are designed to limit the range of acceptable values of the optimization parameters. Processing performance was chosen as the target function. Optimization of parameters within the range of permissible values is carried out on the basis of ensuring the maximum productivity of the process. The required flatness tolerance is provided at the second stage of mode optimization by limiting the value of the maximum elastic deformation. The cutting forces, the magnetic field attraction of the machine table and the bending stiffness of the workpiece are the variable parameters. Mathematical models for determination of maximum elastic deformation of prismatic workpieces when fixing and machining are presented. The conditions for ensuring a given workpiece surface flatness tolerance are determined, taking into account the elastic deformation of a prismatic workpiece of low rigidity under the effects of the magnetic field of the machine tool and the radial component of the grinding force.

Published: July 2021

Theoretical and experimental studies of the current flowing in the lattices of the turbine stage impeller with a change in the elongation of its blades at constant constraining diameters of the flow part (constant blade lengths) are carried out. Four single-stage turbines with different chords of rotor blades and their relative elongations have been investigated. To explain the nature of the integral characteristics of the turbine stage with a change in the relative elongation of the rotor blades, detailed studies of the spatial flow structure in the gap between wheels and behind the impeller were carried out. The peculiarity of the operation of four impellers in the turbine stage is shown when the geometry of the channels changes along the height of the flow path - from active at the root to highly reactive at the periphery. A characteristic redistribution of the local values of the efficiency and losses along the height of the lattices associated with a change in the elongation of the rotor blades and the rotation of the lattices has been revealed. It was found that with a decrease in the elongation of the rotor blades, the zone with the minimum efficiency moves from the root sections to the peripheral ones with its simultaneous restructuring and an increase in the minimum efficiency in this zone. In this case, the integral values of the efficiency of impellers with different relative elongations of the blades remain the same and sufficiently high.
Automatic Unloading Liquid Rocket Engine Fuel Feed System Booster Pump Radial Thrust Bearings from Axial Force
Authors: Timushev S.F. , Frolov A.A.
Published: July 2021

Increasing the suction capacity, efficiency and energy parameters of high-speed pumps is an important task in the development of power systems in the aerospace industry, as well as in their application in energy and oil production. With improved cavitation properties, the pumps can operate at a higher shaft speed, and at its given value - with lower cavitation reserves, i.e. at a reduced inlet pressure. When the shaft speed increases, the pump weight and overall dimensions decrease. To increase the anti-cavitation qualities of pumps in the power system, auxiliary (booster) pumping units are used, creating the pressure necessary for the cavitation-free operation of high-pressure and high-speed main pumps of the engine fuel supply system. In accordance with its purpose, the booster pump must provide the required supply pressure of the specified flow rate at the lowest possible liquid pressure at the inlet.
At the same time, the efficiency of the booster pump unit should be maximum, and the overall dimensions and weight should be minimal. The last two characteristics predetermine the maximum possible number of revolutions of the pump shaft. Ensuring the operability of the ball-bearing supports of the fuel supply units is one of the most important and complex tasks in the development of modern and promising liquid rocket engines (LRE), especially reusable ones. This task has always been one of the priorities in the fine-tuning the fuel feed units of such engines. The article proposes a method for calculating and controlling the unloading liquid rocket engine booster pump radial thrust bearings from axial force. The method can be applied in the entire range of liquid rocket engine calculations. The further development of this work will be mathematical modeling of the operation of the booster pump automatic axial force unloading.

The development and research of high-speed aircrafts and their individual parts is an urgent scientific task. In the scientific literature there is information about the integral characteristics of aircrafts of this type, but there is no detailed consideration of such an important part as the transition channel between the air intake and the combustion chamber. The article considers several flow path configurations. The numerical simulation results of hydrogen combustion in the channels of variable cross section using a detailed kinetic mechanism are presented. Based on the analysis of the data obtained, the models of the transition channel and the combustion chamber showing the best characteristics were selected. The impulse and the fuel combustion efficiency are used as criteria for comparing the flow paths. The difference in the application of two calculation methods is described. The presented results and calculation methods can be used at the stage of computational research of the working processes in advanced power plants.

The analysis of tribotechnical parameters of interfaces with solid lubricating coatings based on MoS2, applied by different methods, was carried out according to the results of tests in vacuum. The surface friction temperature is calculated on the basis of the performed assessment of the load-speed characteristics of these interfaces. Based on the results of tribovacuum tests, the thermocorrelation dependence of the resource of a friction pair with solid lubricating coatings MoS2, applied by vacuum (magnetron and high-frequency) and suspension methods, on the surface friction temperature of the interface was determined. On the basis of this dependence, a method for calculating the resource of the studied tribointerfaces is proposed.

Authors: Lamzin V.A.
Published: July 2021

The article discusses and presents the formulation of problems of inter-project unification of on-board systems in the development of modifications of spacecraft that are part of space systems for remote sensing of the Earth. It is shown that when developing a complex of advanced space systems, it is possible to partially combine unified on-board systems and finished products, which, under given constraints, provides a minimum of total costs. The formulation of the main task of inter-project unification of spacecraft for remote sensing of the Earth using finished products and partially unified on-board systems and a special case of the problem — conducting an economically justified inter-project unification from completely unified on-board systems (aggregates) of promising modifications of spacecraft is given. The initial data and limitations for solving the main and particular problems are determined. The tasks are presented in a deterministic setting. The concept of optimality of the choice of areas of unification of each on-board system is formulated, which is characterized by the minimum of a criterion having an additive structure, this is the total economic effect for areas of unification. It is believed that the analysis of the results of solving the problems of inter-project unification in the development of promising modifications of spacecraft will reveal the directions of inter-project unification of those on-board systems for which it is most appropriate; to formulate the fundamental principles of modernization of space systems and creation of modifications of spacecraft for remote sensing of the Earth in the planned period.
The concept of operational readiness of a multifunctional technical system based on creating individual maintenance models of its components

Published: July 2021

The scheduled preventive system of weapon maintenance and repair currently in use in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation does not adequately correspond to the engineering level of modern multifunctional technical systems. This maintenance and repair system allows assessing the technical condition of multifunctional technical systems with the established diagnostic level, but does not allow predicting their short- and medium-term technical condition. As a result, there is a lack of complete information on the actual technical condition of multifunctional technical systems, which increases the risk of their inoperability at the time of intended use. In addition, the inability to predict the operability of multifunctional technical systems prevents timely detection and anticipation of failures and malfunctions. This leads to unplanned inoperability by reducing the alert readiness rate, and as a consequence, to significant corrective and preventive maintenance costs. Analysis of the technical conditions of multifunctional technical systems shows that the existing preventive maintenance and repair system makes it increasingly more difficult to ensure the required level of the specified operational and technical characteristics. The development and implementation of built-in automated control and diagnostic systems can provide numerical values of multifunctional technical system parameters in real time, to objectively assess their actual technical condition and predict the technical condition for a certain period of operation. These circumstances objectively raise the issue of improving the existing preventive maintenance and repair system and developing an individual system for sustaining the operational readiness of multifunctional technical systems.
This paper presents the conceptual foundations of operational readiness of a multifunctional technical system based on the individual assessment of the technical state of its components and adaptive-situational management of the readiness sustainment process. The proposed approach is based on the creation of an individual technical state model for a multifunctional technical system, assessing and predicting its technical state, and adjusting the readiness sustainment program through adaptive situational management. The proposed approach ensures the required level of readiness and reliability of multifunctional technical systems operating in a dynamically changing environment.

Published: July 2021

Space greenhouses (SG) that can be used for enriching the astronauts’ diet are also considered a means of improving the astronauts’ life environment in autonomous crewed expeditions. One of the main requirements for SC is to minimize the specific consumption of the main onboard resources: energy, space, refrigerant, and labor-hours per unit mass of grown product. Experiments on adaptive optimization of irradiation and illumination spectrum were performed and a hardware and software complex (HSC) was developed to control the test-stand with the SG model. The main object of control is an intermittently pressure-sealed chamber with temperature and humidity sensors, as well as an IR gas analyzer. The latter determines the visible photosynthesis of the plants based on the dynamics of CO2 absorption. The sensors and actuators are connected to a Mega 2560 AVR microcontroller connected to a Raspberry Pi 4B single-board computer via a USB-UART converter. The modular software package was created on the basis of the ROS (Robot Operating System) framework, which minimizes the training period for new developers and experiment operators. The first HSC versions were successfully tested on a test-stand with Chinese cabbage to find the trajectory of optimal lighting parameters during the growth process. The HSC made it possible to carry out several replications of a 2-factor experiment to study the drift of the optimal LED lighting modes during a 10 days’ period with daily variation of 2 factors — the current in the red LED circuit and the current in the white LED circuit. Optimal change patterns in the lighting parameters for a test-stand with a space greenhouse model were obtained.
Percepción de eficacia en el control de la corrupción y su relación con el clima socioemocional y la identidad nacional en el Perú: Un estudio experimental
Authors: Chaparro Hernán , Espinosa Agustín , Páez Darío
Published: July 2021

Este artículo revisa la definición de corrupción y sus correlatos individuales, macro y micro sociales. En un estudio de campo experimental con una muestra representativa peruana (N= 1,254), se informó a los participantes de una gestión jurídica del control de la corrupción de alta eficacia (un 95% de los casos fueron juzgados y sancionados) versus un control de baja eficacia (solo un 5% fue juzgado y sancionado). La información inducida sobre la eficacia en el control y sanción de la corrupción provocó una mayor percepción de eficacia colectiva para tratar la desviación y una mejor balanza de clima socioemocional en el grupo de alta eficacia. La inducción experimental de mayor eficacia interactuó con el interés en la política y produjo mayor percepción de eficacia en el control de corrupción y mejor balanza de clima socioemocional en las personas de alto interés. Adicionalmente, se observa que la identificación con el Perú aumentó solo en las personas que confiaban previamente en el sistema de justicia (poder judicial) y que fueron informadas de una alta eficacia de control de la corrupción. Se discuten los resultados en el marco de la dinámica grupal de control de la desviación e identidad grupal y la importancia del contexto institucional y del nivel de interés en la política.

Published: July 2021

Background: Few studies have confirmed the presence of ovarian tissue stem cells indicating the capacity for differentiation. Based on this fact, it was hypothesized that mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) were found in ovarian surface epithelium (OSE) of canines that could easily be isolated. Methods: Both left and right ovaries were minced and digested using collagenase to obtain a stromal vascular fraction (SVF). MSCs were characterized using RT-PCR. To ascertain the trilineage differentiation potential, MSCs were stained with respective stain for osteocytes, chondrocytes and adipocytes. Result: We observed elongated, spindle-shaped and fibroblast like appearance of cells after 72 h of initial culture. Expression of MSC specific surface markers were observed through RT-PCR. Using Stem Pro® differentiation medium, OSE were differentiated into osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic lineages and were found to be potential source for isolation, characterization and differentiation of MSCs. Canine (OSE) is easily accessible, multipotent and has high plasticity, holding promise for applications in regenerative medicine.

One year after the pandemic hit this nation, all efforts have been made by the government to break the chain of spreading this virus, such as the imposition of PSBB (large-scale social restrictions) in certain areas. However, these efforts to date have not been able to produce sweet results. The problem is that most people are ignorant and neglect to pay attention to and comply with health protocols, such as wearing masks, maintaining distance, and washing hands. Therefore, we need an alternative solution to solving these problems, namely through the local cultural approach (indigenous). Indigenous counseling is believed to be able to construct people's views to view the realities and problems of life based on their beliefs and culture so that they can make people aware of compliance with health protocols and the dangers of Covid-19.

Pandemi melanda dunia hampir setahun lamanya. Virus covid-19 menyebar secara global tak terkecuali indonesia. Dampak dari pandemi juga dirasakan oleh guru. Guru honorer/guru tidak tetap yang bekerja pada beberapa sekolah negeri maupun swasta, sampai saat ini belum memiliki standar gaji yang menitikberatkan pada bobot jam pelajaran. Guru honorer memang menghadapi kenyataan yang memprihatinkan, mulai dari tingkat pengahasilan yang tidak menentu, para guru honorer sama sekali tidak memperoleh tunjangan-tunjangan yang disediakan oleh pemerintah sebagaimana para guru pegawai negeri sipil (PNS). Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif fenomenologis Subjek penelitian ini terdiri dari 2 guru di salah satu sekolah swasta di kabupaten Sumenep yang sudah menjadi guru honorer lebih dari 10 tahun. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan dinamika resiliensi pada guru honorer dapat didukung oleh beberapa faktor dalam terbentuknya resiliensi yang tinggi, diantaranya dukungan dari orang terdekat, baik dari pihak keluarga, teman sejawat, kemampuan social skill yang baik, serta religiusitas yang tinggi berupa niat yang murni untuk ibadah bukan untuk mencari keuntungan dari mengajar.[The pandemic swept the world for almost a year. The covid-19 virus spreads globally, including in Indonesia. Teachers also felt the impact of the pandemic. Honorary teachers / non-permanent teachers who work in several public and private schools, so far, do not yet have a standard salary that focuses on weighted lesson hours. Honorary teachers do face a worrying reality, starting from the level of unpredictable income, honorary teachers do not get the allowances provided by the government as do civil servant teachers (PNS). This study used a phenomenological qualitative research method. The subjects of this study consisted of 2 teachers in a private school in Sumenep district who had been honorary teachers for more than 10 years. The results showed that the dynamics of resilience in honorary teachers can be supported by several factors in the formation of high resilience, including support from closest people, both from the family, peers, good social skills, and high religiosity in the form of a pure intention to worship instead of to profit from teaching].
Commercial creolized texts in the language space of the modern city (based on the material of the names of enterprises in the service sector of Vladivostok)
Authors:   Vladivostok State University of Economics and Service, Krinitskaya Marina Yu. , Tyurin Pavel M.
Published: July 2021

Article is devoted to studying of commercial creolized texts (CCT), that stand out in the communicative space of the modern Russian city. The article analyzes and describes the types of CCT presented on the business signs (evidence from enterprises of the restaurant business and clothing and footwear stores in Vladivostok) in terms of their structure and the nature of the use of verbal and non-verbal means. It is paid attention to modern approaches to the description of proper names in the context of their use in the nomination of various commercial objects and note that this area of linguistic science has not yet developed a one term for designation of this type of proper names. Nomination of commercial objects in our days is almost impossible without the use of creolizing elements, and even quiet color and absence of light oт signs of shops and enterprises of the restaurant business can be considered as a certain nominator’s strategy. In this regard, the study of the names of commercial enterprises is impossible without the analysis of non-verbal means. The analysis of the structure of the characterized units shows that very often non-duplicating images are used in the structure of the CCT, which are designed to formation of certain associations in perception of receiver, often due to a certain understatement or intended concealment by the sender his intensions. It is concluded that the different structural types of CCT in trading and services represent linguistic facts: borrowing, hypertextuality, intertextuality and globalization.

The paper presents the problem of transformations of phraseological units in modern Russian and Slovak advertising slogans. The primary task of the advertising slogan is to attract the attention of the recipient, to interest a potential buyer, to motivate him to buy certain products. When classical linguistic means and techniques turn out to be ineffective or outdated, the creators of advertising slogans resort to various transformations of the existing material well-known to a certain society, word play and other experiments with language. Transformation of phraseological units is a justified, effective and highly relevant method of attracting attention in various spheres of communication (media, fiction, Internet, blogs, advertising, politics, etc.). This technique has occupied the dominant position in advertising for more than a decade, since fixed expressions or allusions to them appeal to the wisdom of the nation, its origins, and evoke positive images in memory. The purpose of this article is to identify the transformations of phraseological units in advertising using the example of two Slavic languages, to analyse specific examples of transformations created by Russian and Slovak authors, to consider the methods of creating such transformations, to note their features and to draw appropriate conclusions.

The article attempts to structure the motivational side, as well as the principles of nomination in the formation of the zoonemic layer of onomastic vocabulary. From the point of view of the onomasiological approach, the onomastic nomination is analyzed in the aspect of modeling of the nominative situation, where the specific properties of zoonyms as one of the bits of the names of their own are taken into account. Terminological definition is carried out in connection with the polyemanticity of the term “zoonym”. It is concluded that the reconstruction of the nominative situation (initial motives of the nomination) allows to interpret it as much as possible in order to further use this information in the identification of associative relations. Factors that create a nominative situation when creating a zoonim have been identified. These include both linguistic and extralinguistic: the purpose of the nomination, the age of the nominee, phonetic features of the supposed onim, the inner world of man, associative connections, the influence of zoonimical stereotype. Each component in the nomination process affects the selection of a ready-made name or the creation of a new one in its own way. Synthesis of participation of factors in creation of a nominative situation when forming a zoonim allowed to formulate the basic principles of the nomination characteristic of area of a zoonimiya and also levels on which these principles are based (actually object, object and subject). The distribution of principles by named levels is reflected. It is concluded that the main principles are the nomination of an object by its properties; Nomination as a result of the intended effect of the perception of others; Nomination as a reflection of the inner world and the nominee 's interests, emerging associations; Nomination taking into account the scale of zoonomic stereotypes. It is concluded that the creation of zoonyms is the result of a conscious strategy of the nominee, which reflects the peculiarities of the national specificity of thinking and relevant associative ties in the process of creation.

Normative context in contemporary German media
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Slesarev Alexey G.

Socially significant ideas about the individual, his cultural and social ties, his rights and freedom are clearly formulated both in the EU Charter and in the basic law of the Federal Republic. However, it would be logical to take into consideration some criteria of social normality and compliance with the society in which certain legal norms operate. Such social normative context covers all social institutions, includes the ideas about the world and individual of all social groups, and has an inverse effect on the mentality of each individual in every field of activity, including the media sphere. The influence of the normative context affects not only the structure of information content, the way of broadcasting, the specifics of forms and types, but also characterizes the entire media system — within a particular region, country or union of states. The normative context must be necessarily determined by the individual’s idea of national self-identification; social environment; cultural landscape and geographical area; the vision of rights and freedoms. Without taking these important criteria into account, the fact of the German media system’s adherence to the Western values and European rights, and the country’s high rating in respect to civil liberties do not explain the specifics of German journalism.
“Hymn lyric-epic on driving out the French from the Fatherland” by G.R. Derzhavin as a prediction of the ideological turn of 1813–1815

Based on the analysis of the poem by G.R. Derzhavin “Hymn lyric-epic on driving out the French from the Fatherland”, the article demonstrates how this text predicted the changes in the state rhetoric and ideology of the Russian Empire in 1813–1815. Creating this text as an ideological poem and developing the motive of the Russian people there, Derzhavin left the civil understanding of it widespread in poetry during the Patriotic War in which people are recognized as an autonomous figure in history, independent of either the tsar or God and gave the motive a biblical dimension: opposition of Russia and France are compared to the ontological battle of divine and demonic forces. In “Hymn lyric-epic …” the idea of messianism of the Russian people sounds louder than in other modern poems. Moreover, Derzhavin's poem was one of the first, in which the plot of the Patriotic War of 1812 is clearly, voluminously and consistently set out: from the awakening of Napoleon (“Dragon or the serpentine demon”) to the final triumph of the Russians chosen by God and led by the archangel-like Mikhail Kutuzov, and the flight of the French emperor from the borders of the Russian Empire.
