Authors: Dhaniwala Nareshkumar Satyanarayan , Dhaniwala Mukund Naresh , Dudhekar Ulhas , Singh Rahul
Published: October 2023

Excisional Arthroplasty of hip is an old modality of treatment meant to gain mobility of hip at the cost of stability, limping and shortening of limb for post infective fibrous ankylosis of hip or arthrodesis of hip. At present with frequent use of total hip replacement, the use of excisional arthroplasty in hip is limited. A case of periprosthetic fracture in femur occurring 14 years after the surgery and managed with the excisional arthroplasty is reported due to difficulties in prosthesis removal. The case report highlights the utility of Excisional arthroplasty in complex periprosthetic fractures which cannot not be managed by total hip arthroplasty, thus indicating its relevance even today.

Authors: Сергеев С.В. , Соколов Н.С.
Published: October 2023

Одной из приоритетных задач национальной политики РФ является обеспечение безопасности и надежности зданий и сооружений, служащих средой жизнедеятельности. В связи с этим, при строительстве или реконструкции зданий и сооружений в сложных инженерно-геологических условиях, а также для эксплуатируемых зданий и сооружений, попадающих в зону влияния нового строительства в условиях существующей застройки необходимо осуществлять геотехнический мониторинг. Основной целью мониторинга является своевременное выявление недопустимых отклонений в строящихся или реконструируемых зданиях и сооружениях, а также в существующих объектах, находящихся в зоне влияния нового строительства и их оснований от проектных значений. По полученным результатам данным разрабатываются мероприятия по предупреждению или устранению негативных последствий.
Буроинъекционная свая ЭРТ армированная фиброй как заглубленная конструкция
Authors: Соколов Н.С.
Published: October 2023

На сегодняшний день намечается существенный рост применения фибродобавок (фибры) как в промышленном, так и бытовом строительстве во всем мире. Применение фибры для армирования бетонных конструкций успешно конкурирует с другими способами укрепления бетона, в том числе металлическими сетками и стержнями. Бетонные конструкции, армированные фиброй, имеют повышенный класс огнеупорности и категорию трещиностойкости, что позволяет использовать данный вид армирования во многих областях строительства, включая фундаментостроение, в частности – при устройстве буровых свайных фундаментов. Главная особенность применения буровых свай заключается в отсутствии ударных и вибро-нагрузок в процессе их устройства, что очень важно при условиях плотной городской застройки. Поэтому, изучение работы конструкций буровых свай и усовершенствование данной технологии является актуальной задачей при проектировании подземных сооружений, так как применением фиброарматуры можно увеличить несущую способность буронабивной сваи, а также сократить сроки его возведения.

Published: October 2023

The article investigates the theoretical and methodological principles of the mechanism of using RRO and PRRO in terms of increasing the level of tax administration. A three-level system of legal regulation of the use of registrars of transactions in the activities of economic entities has been formed and analyzed. The general tendency of development of cash registers in Ukraine, which consists in gradual, starting from 2015, fiscalization of settlement operations of small business representatives - legal entities and natural persons- entrepreneurs on a simplified taxation system, is highlighted. It was found that the main prerequisite for the process of fiscalization of settlement operations in Ukraine was too high level of the shadow economy, which leads to a shortfall in a significant share of budget revenues. The goal of fiscalization of settlement operations, which is to reduce the level of the shadow economy and protect consumer rights, has been determined. The position on the need to use cash registers when receiving payments through online banking using mobile applications, when receiving payments on a key card and in the case of receiving payment for goods sold through a payment intermediary Nova ay is substantiated. The classification and comparative characteristics of registrars of settlement operations with the definition of the advantages and disadvantages of classical and software RRO in order to facilitate the adoption of quality management decisions when choosing the type of cash registers.
REGIONAL INNOVATION DEVELOPMENT ZONES AS A FACTOR OF INFLUENCE ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Authors: Zalyubinska L. M. , Kirilina M. A.
Published: October 2023

Today is characterized by the rapid appearance of the latest technologies in almost all spheres of human life, which radically and fundamentally change them. Today, digital technologies are defined as one of the most powerful factors in the growth of economic activity, not only from the point of view of an individual enterprise, a local country, but also from the point of view of the global economy. Technological progress within the framework of the use of digital technologies is manifested not only in the process of production and use of technologies, as it happened during the first scientific and technological revolutions, but also in the development of human and social capital, which leads to changes in almost all layers of the economy and its structure. Undoubtedly, this growth of digital technologies is primarily related to the development of science and technology in production, the latest approaches in management, but the main factor is mostly an increase in investment in science, education and people in general. Economic growth is impossible without the development of science, technology and social sciences. In turn, the creation of new knowledge requires not only a considerable amount of professional human resources, but also considerable funding and investment in these resources. There is a structured interdependence between education (knowledge) and the emergence of new technologies: without technologies, there is no development in any branch of the economy (including science); without science, there are no changes in technology.
The modern theory of the behavior of economic subjects has finally moved from utility maximization models to the consideration of enterprises as independent systems with their own culture and knowledge, aimed at the implementation of constantly updated (innovative) technologies. The competition took on even tougher forms. The use of information technology eliminates the need for physical proximity of both producers and consumers, as a result of which markets become global. As a result of recent events under the influence of COVID-19 and the war, Ukraine's economy is suffering from destruction. The work proposes the creation of regional zones of innovative development as a way to revive the economy of Ukraine.
ESTIMATING THE MARKET VALUE OF A VEHICLE UNDER LIMITED INFORMATION
Authors: Mazur O. Ye. , Zolotarov O. M.
Published: October 2023

The article reveals the issues of estimating the market value of wheeled vehicles in conditions of limited information. If there is a shortage of data on the assessment base, it is necessary to take into account the differences between the base and the assessment objects. The authors assessed the market value of a special purpose vehicle (excavator). The estimation made it possible to obtain a generalized scheme of vehicle evaluation in conditions of limited data, which consists of five stages: market analysis, collection of market information, screening of anomalous objects, sampling of homogeneous vehicles, price adjustments. The assessment shows approaches to making price adjustments to the base models (including the time factor and the availability of taxes). The statistical method of price adjustments is used. The authors emphasize the need to distinguish between sales prices and supply prices of vehicles.

Authors: Bazyka Yevheniia
Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the problem of psychological well-being of persons in the period of middle adulthood and the presentation of the results of the study of the relationship between emotional stability and psychological well-being in people aged 40 to 60 years.
Research results. It was determined that respondents who are competent in various spheres of life, in particular, in building positive relationships, feel comfortable and in high spirits. These results can be useful when working with persons who are in an uncomfortable state, a state of temporary maladaptation during social destabilization.
Conclusions. It has been proven that psychological well-being and mental state are closely related to people in middle adulthood. It was determined that a person's personal parameters, and not the situational state or the current situation, play a big role in the feeling of psychological well-being. A significant relationship between psychological well being and emotional stability has been established.
It is assumed that research into the relationship between anxiety, positive emotional states, and psychological well-being at different age periods and in different life situations will allow us to identify features characteristic of many people who, one way or another, strive to achieve success in life.
Prospects are foreseen in the identification of sources of anxiety and positive emotions that change over the course of life, with the accumulation of social experience when the surrounding environment changes.
PROCRASTINATION AS A FACTOR OF EMOTIONAL ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE FUTURE
Authors: Dolhonosenko Vladyslav
Published: October 2023

The relevance of studying the phenomenon of procrastination and its causes is constantly increasing In connection with the development and acceleration of scientific and technical progress. Modern society is oriented towards achievements. A person is constantly in the conditions of fulfilling obligations, which require compliance with deadlines. Issues of personal effectiveness, achievement of success and well-being are especially important. But staying in these conditions is increasingly reduced to procrastination, a phenomenon that becomes an obstacle to personal and professional effectiveness. The above forms the high interest of the scientific community to the study of the phenomenon of procrastination.
The article highlights the phenomenon of procrastination – a great psychological phenomenon that focuses not only on violations of the emotional and volitional sphere of the individual or psychological defenses. The article is also filled with a meaningful analysis of types of procrastination (domestic, that is, daily; neurotic; academic; compulsive) and consideration of their specific features. The determinants of procrastination and its serious consequences, which are traced as a certain psychological state, are considered: stress, a strong decrease in motivation, an obsessive sense of guilt, loss of productivity, and a decrease in self-esteem.
It was revealed that the problem lies in the negative consequences of procrastination on a person's professional activity, on a decrease in personal productivity, work capacity, which is manifested in an acute emotional experience of personal failure and dissatisfaction with one's own work, as well as one's own results in the professional environment. Being as a stable model of behavior, procrastination is quite difficult to correct, the work will be effective only if the cause of the problem is determined and a person realizes what internal resources and potential he has.
PROFESSIONAL PERSONALITY IDENTITY: THEORETICAL REVIEW OF MODERN RESEARCH
Authors: Kononenko Anatoliy
Published: October 2023

The development of professional identity should take into account self-development, which is directly related to professional development. Self-esteem is self-understanding and conscious assessment of one's own personality qualities, thoughts, words, and actions. Thus, self-esteem affects the effectiveness of one's own activities and the activities of other people, as well as overcoming difficulties in solving the set tasks.
Mastering the structure of students' professional motivation and perception of motivation allows you to reasonably solve promotion problems, correctly navigate the choice of specialty, build a professional career, study remotely, and obtain the necessary knowledge for future work. In conditions of instability, this significantly affects the responsibility and desire to acquire education.
The purpose of the article is to conduct a theoretical and methodological review of the state of development of the problem of the professional identity of personality.
The phenomenon of "professional identity" is quite new in psychology, its purposeful study began at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries, when it became a question of a person's professional self-determination and the aspect of the attitude of the greatest was aimed at abilities, and not at the acquisition of knowledge.
The personality goes through many stages of development and, accordingly, changes, both physiological and valuable, understands his abilities and chooses his profession more than once, which enables the personality to develop throughout his life.
Each of these stages of personality development brings its own skills and understanding, forming a stable image of professional identity, i.e. the individual identifies himself with the future professional activity, sometimes changing the chosen profession radically, and this leads to the acquisition of new skills, but the process itself knowledge of personality, in our opinion, the most important process, especially in the current difficult time, almost every person is faced with a radical review of both his life and his professional activity.
EMOTIONAL COMPETENCE AS THE BASIS OF PROFESSIONAL SUCCESS
Authors: Chernyavska Tetyana
Published: October 2023

Problem statement. The article presents the results of a theoretical study of the problem of emotional competence. It is shown that emotional competence is an important aspect of professional success.
The formation and development of emotional competence of specialists allows them to achieve success in the professional sphere, and also allows to avoid psycho-emotional disorders and preserve mental ealth.
Concepts of competence mainly focus on the mental processes that underlie the activity, on the knowledge that arises as a result of these processes and its organization, on conscious practice, or on talent or innate abilities.
The processes that distinguish an expert from a novice include the following processes: planning, tracking, evaluation of problem solving, decision making. Experts and novices provide information differently; the former develop more complex strategies and activity monitoring than the latter.
The success of professional activity also depends on personal qualities: a stable and positive system of relations with one's own inner and surrounding world, as well as the level of formation and development of emotional intelligence; specialists who better understand and manage their own emotions, adapt more easily to stressful and crisis conditions, are more proactive and responsible.
The purpose of the article is to study the problem of emotional competence as the basis of professional success.
Results of the research. Based on the above, we conclude that emotional competence can be considered as a psychological phenomenon that reflects the emotional maturity of an individual and summarizes the emotional, intellectual and regulatory components of the psyche involved in the process of achieving professional and personal goals.
Emotional competence has such a significant impact on many aspects of a person's professional life and professional activities. The study of this problem helps to reveal the key mechanisms underlying professional success. The results of such studies can be used to develop education and training programs aimed at improving the emotional competence of employees, as well as to form a better understanding of how important it is to combine professional knowledge with the skills of effective interpersonal communication and interaction to achieve professional success.
PUBLIC DIPLOMACY AS A TECHNOLOGY OF THE FOREIGN POLICY OF UKRAINE
Authors: Koptiev O. S.
Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to consideration of the specifics of public diplomacy in Ukraine, including during the war. This made it possible to single out approaches and main principles that will increase the country’s security and attractiveness on the international stage. By applying a technological approach, the types of development and different approaches to the study of public diplomacy in Ukraine and the world were analyzed, the specifics of public diplomacy in modern Ukraine were characterized, and effective technologies of public diplomacy were determined in the conditions of the transition from two-vector to European integration.
The scientific novelty consists in the review of public diplomacy technologies in the context of solving key challenges in international relations, in particular in the context of geopolitical changes and the full-scale invasion of the occupiers in Ukraine. The effectiveness of public diplomacy and its role in maintaining and improving attitudes towards the country, attracting international support and developing partnership relations have been studied. Thus, the study expands the understanding of public diplomacy as a tool that can be used to positively influence international politics.
The main attention is paid to the study of the tools of public diplomacy, as effective mechanisms for the development of Ukraine’s foreign policy. The conducted research proves the need to strengthen the efforts of all actors of international relations, citizens, opinion leaders and representatives of organizations to improve the image of Ukraine, as well as its economic, social, political and cultural enrichment. It is proposed to create a public institution for cyber security, which will assist law enforcement officers from the Cyber Police and representatives of the Ministry of Digital Policy.
Strategic areas of activity and effective use of public diplomacy in Ukraine during the great war and changes in the vector of development in international relations were formed. The fakes can be used by the authorities to improve the image of the state and its recognition in the international arena.
THE ROLE OF LANGUAGE AND LANGUAGE PRACTICES IN THE “EVERYDAY NATIONALISM”
Authors: Dyachenko O. V.
Published: October 2023

In 1995, M. Billig’s “Banal Nationalism” was published for the first time. This pioneering work initiated a new way of studying “nation” and “nationalism”. Somewhat later, the concept of “Banal nationalism” was clarified and supplemented by the concept of “Everyday Nationality”, that together compose “Everyday Nationalism’s” research.
The study, which is directly based on M. Billig’s “Banal nationalism”, examines how elites mobilize elite (state) symbols, nationalist discourses, and other material and immaterial elements that form the usual landscape and semiosphere of the territory. Instead of this, “Everyday Nationhood” try to show, how people reinterpret elite symbols and nationalist discourses or create their own versions of nationhood enacted as everyday practices.
Actually, among the elements that serve as a daily reminder of people’s place in the “world of nations” are language and language practices, as well as small deictic words (“domestic policy” / “foreign policy”, “us” / “them”, “here” / “there”, etc.), which are used by mass media and other services that we read, listen, watch, etc. Finally, ideas, that seem banal to us, turn out to be ideological constructs of nationalism.
The idea of “language” should also be considered a historical construct of nationalism. The concept of “language”, at least in the sense that it seems obvious to “us”, is an “invented permanency” created in the era of the nation-state. Language does not create nationalism as nationalism creates language; or, rather, nationalism creates “our” common view, that there are “natural” and indisputable things called “languages” we speak.
POLITICAL IMAGE OF UKRAINE: ANALYSIS OF FAKE INSTRUMENTATION IN HYBRID WARFARE (BASED ON GREEK MASS MEDIA MATERIALS)
Authors: Snigovska O. V. , Malakhiti A. V. , Zakharchuk N. V.
Published: October 2023

This article examines the processes of transforming the political image of Ukraine against the backdrop of the armed conflict with Russia. All the information used in this study has been selected from contemporary Greek mass media, scientific, and expert-analytical works from 2014 to 2023. The relevance of this research is based on the assertion that mass media serves as a tool in conducting hybrid warfare, either destroying or weakening the authority of a particular state, creating a negative image of political institutions or politicians, thereby causing social and economic tension and subsequent societal fragmentation. The aim of the article is to investigate the toolkit for creating and promoting fakes in Greek media as an element of hybrid warfare in the context of highlighting the peculiarities of Ukraine’s political image perception during the military aggression from the Russian Federation. The following methods were employed in the preparation of this article: analysis, synthesis, abstraction, cultural and systemic methods. This combination of methodological tools ensured the integrity of the study in elucidating the role and place of fakes in the context of conducting hybrid warfare. The authors provide numerous examples of political narratives and pro-Russian propaganda employed to erode the trust of the Greek population in Ukrainian politicians and ordinary citizens, fabricating a significant amount of false information in Greek mass media, as well as in scientific and expert-analytical works. The researchers attempted to reveal the ambivalence of societal perception regarding Ukraine’s position in the European integration processes and to identify the events and decisions of the Ukrainian authorities that contributed to the negative imaging of Ukraine in Greece. To achieve the stated objective, the authors of the article addressed the following tasks: delineating the stereotypical perception of Ukraine’s political image from the pre-war period to the active phase of the armed conflict, elucidating the binarity of image content, and identifying image characteristics against the backdrop of military aggression from Russia.
PECULIARITIES OF OBTAINING CUTTING TOOL MATERIAL BASED ON NANODISPERSED POWDERS BY ELECTRIC SINTERING

Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to the production of tool ceramics from nanodispersed  powders of Al2O3–WC by hot vacuum pressing and the study of their  properties. The cutting material is  obtained by hot pressing by direct transmission of electric current. The developed cutting material is  characterised by high physical and mechanical properties, the absence of fusible components that could reduce high-temperature strength, and  fracture toughness. In addition, it  shows high efficiency in the processing of high-hard steels and ceramics, has high hardness, strength of interfacial and intergranular boundaries, high dispersion and uniform distribution of structural components, and a  minimum size of defects that could be sources of fracture. Comparative studies of various cutting ceramic materials show that the main reasons for the high wear resistance of oxide-carbide ceramics, in particular the resulting nanocomposite, in steel processing are their fine-grained  structure, as well as the substructural and dispersed strengthening  mechanism. In white Al2O3 ceramics, the grains contain dislocations, i.e., the grains are not capable to store the deformation energy, which results in microfracture of Al2O3 grains in the surface layers of the tool. It follows that an increase in the resistance to brittle fracture of oxide-carbide  ceramics and the stability of its cutting properties could be achieved by  reducing the grain size of the matrix, which is observed when using additives in the form of carbides (TiC, WC, SiC). It was  found, the optimal sintering  temperature of the mixture under pressure is equals to 1600 °C. At a temperature of 1550 °C, the holding time is not sufficient, and at 1650 °C, the temperature of the Al2O3–WC interfacial interaction is exceeded, which could lead to the formation of CO and closed porosity. The pressing pressure is limited by the  characteristics of graphite and equals 50 MPa. The maximum pressure is applied only when the maximum pressing temperature is reached to complete degassing of sorbed gases. It has been determined that the grain size of the structural components of ceramics in the range of 2...5 µm is not optimal and is formed not during the sintering process, but during the preparation of the mixture for hot pressing.
ABOUT THE METHOD OF SIMULATING THE PROGRESSIVE COLLAPSE OF A REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAME UNDER THE FIRE IMPACT
Authors: Almohamad Mohamаd
Published: October 2023

In his paper a method of mathematical modeling of progressive destruction based on the example of an existing 17-story building using an explicit method of integrating the dynamics equations was proposed. A set of provisions and assumptions was substantiated for mathematical modeling of the progressive destruction of the 17-story monolithic reinforced concrete frame. The numerical analysis was performed using the finite element method in the LS DYNA software complex. A fire under the standard mode (150 min – I degree of fire resistance) in accordance with Ukrainian standards was considered as an emergency load, which involves taking into account nonlinear processes of changes in physical and mechanical characteristics of materials and changes in temperature. Five scenarios of fire development in the premises of the building are considered, based on which the algorithm for determining the reduced mechanical characteristics of the composite layers of planar finite elements approximating the calculated area of the structural system of the building is substantiated. It is shown that in all cases of the five fire scenarios,  progressive destruction covers parts and elements of the structural system of the building that go beyond the premises where the fire develops, as well as elements whose mechanical characteristics are not subject to reduction due to fire. The results demonstrating the destruction of the elements in a cascade manner which starts with the most weakened and spills over to the elements that perceive a greater load were obtained. It is noted that the elements that do not have reduced mechanical characteristics are destroyed due to the increase in bending moments from deformed overlaps with support columns and diaphragms, which have given rise to failure. As a sign of the onset of progressive collapse, a rapid increase in displacements is adopted. They spread both in plan and along the height of the building, and these displacements prevail by several orders over displacements obtained in normal (non-emergency) conditions. At the same time, the appearance of signs of progressive collapse became possible only when the load was increased by 3.72 times.

У статті проаналізовано можливості збільшення обсягів міжнародних перевезень в Україні шляхом ширшого впровадження контейнерних перевезень та оптимізації роботи пунктів пропускання на державному кордоні. Розглянуто ефективність розвитку нового напрямку прямування вантажів у контейнерах і визначено найбільш імовірні маршрути контейнерних поїздів. Зроблено порівняння обсягів перевезення контейнерів за останні 10-20 років. Обґрунтовано пропозиції з відновлення деяких пунктів пропускання та відкриття нових транспортних хабів для вантажів у міжнародному сполученні. Запропоновані маршрути прийдуть на заміну тим, що втратили актуальність у зв’язку з війною. Крім того, їхньою функцією також буде перерозподіл вантажопотоків із портів України до Європи. Вcтановлено, що розвиток напрямку вантажопотоку через Ягодин є актуальним та економічно доцільним на сьогодні за рахунок збільшення швидкості пересування вантажів. Доведено, що найбільш ефективним способом використання універсальної тари для перевезень різними видами транспорту і залізничним рухомим складом з візками для різної ширини колії є застосування контейнерів. Тому встановлено необхідність створення терміналу поблизу станції Ягодин як найближчого до морських портів Центральної Європи переходу через кордон України. За результатами дослідження, найкоротші відстані між найбільш імовірними пунктами курсування контейнеропотоків пролягають у більшості випадках через Ягодин, що доводить оптимальність побудови маршрутів переміщення вантажів у контейнерах. Розглянуто можливість відкриття нових прикордонних переходів на заході країни, які б розвантажили існуючі та дали змогу збільшити швидкість пересування вантажів через кордон. Розвиток цього напряму організації руху міжнародних вантажопотоків за участю залізничного транспорту допоможе розвантажити існуючі залізничні магістралі і матиме стратегічне значення для України.
Upland rice: A new high potential non-traditional cash crop for Africa
Authors:   Lupane State University, Geja CM , Maphosa M ,   Lupane State University
Published: October 2023

Rice is the main staple food for almost half of the world’s population and leading cereal in terms of production area and consumption. Rapid urbanization and changes in consumer preferences have led to a concomitant increase in consumption which so far exceeds any other crop in Africa. Therefore, upland rice cropping has become a common sight in Africa as farmers engage in diversification and respond to demand for the crop. Interspecific hybridization of African rice (Oryza glaberrima Steud.) and Asian rice (Oryza sativa L.) produced upland rice NERICA varieties that combine adaptability, tolerance to stresses and high production potential. Traditional African rice varieties though adapted to the continent are prone to lodging, shattering and comparatively low yielding which adversely affects production and consequently their adoption. Some of the poorest farmers are found in Africa where there is dependence on biomass cooking fuel and upland rice has greater significance. There is, therefore, need to re-evaluate the role played by the crop, identify gaps and proffer solutions that will make it productive and widely cultivated. Accordingly, this review intends to examine upland rice production patterns and strides which can be made to sustainably increase its productivity so that there is food and nutrition security. Some of the pertinent issues that need to be considered include prioritization of farmer preferences in quality and agronomic attributes to enhance adoption. Upland rice breeding programs can go beyond traditional breeding for stresses and yield but focus on genetic biofortification to use the crop as a conduit for vital nutrients. Ultimately, for sustainable rice productivity, there is need to have affordable infrastructure to lessen labor requirement particularly during production and post-harvest processing. Moreover, there is need to build institutional capacity to conduct more research and offer extension services to support production of the crop. A wider product portfolio for the crop will subsequently have a multiplier effect and enhance adoption of rice production by many farmers in Africa. The ultimate aim is to spread awareness of upland rice as an alternative cash crop that can be produced in suitable agroecologies in Africa.

Healthy snacks are widely accepted and can be part of a daily diet since they can be eaten in different areas such as homes, offices, conferences, workshops, and most especially in schools. Snacks have become an essential commodity in every home for both young and old. There are several reasons why snacks are consumed. It could result from hunger, convenience, cravings, socializing, and emotional comfort. Various individual, societal, and environmental elements influence snacking behaviour. Furthermore, awareness of healthy snacks and self-esteem in selecting the "right" snacks are major predictors of snacking behaviour. Most snack foods are commonly referred to as "junk food" or "empty foods" because they include a large amount of calories from sugar or fat with minimal protein, vitamin, or mineral content. However, despite their role in the daily diet, these snacks are mostly energy dense and low in nutrients. Some research studies have been done on functional snacks, but more is yet to be explored. Moringa oleifera leaf powder (MoLP) has been helpful as a food fortificant in various products. This study has utilized it to fortify two varieties of snacks, namely Magwinya and Chinchin (wheat flour). The chemical and functional properties of these snack food products after fortification with MoLP at 0% (Control), 1% and 5% of the variants were determined. Moringa oleifera leaf powder (MoLP) (1% and 5%) had a significant (p < 0.05) effect on the moisture (4.63 – 3.97%), ash (0.52 -1.09%), protein (11.36 – 13.40%), and total fat of both the dough (0.17 – 0.81%) and fried product (10.17 – 15.39%) of Magwinya samples. Chinchin fortified with MoLP had a significantly (p < 0.05) higher phenolic content (1.08 – 2.17 mg GAE/g), antioxidant activity (13.41 – 53.81 µmol TE/g), protein content (6.27 - 6.74%), oil uptake (1.89 - 7.12%), and ash (0.99 - 1.39%) consistently at 5% MoLP. These results show that these snacks fortified by MoLP can be advantageous to children and adults in Western and Southern Africa.

For the first time the Kórnik estate came into possession of the Działyńskis family in 1676. Count Tytus Działyński, the son of Ksawery and Justyna Dzieduszycka, was the most famous of this family. In 1825 he took over the fortune of Kórnik, and one year later he founded one of the most valuable book collcction, known today as the Kórnik Library of the Polish Academy of Sciences. The ancestors of Tytus: grandfather Augustyn and father Ksawery, assembled the first collection. Among the books there were works in the field of Polish law (editions from 16th, 17th and 18th century), historical works of such authors as Jan Długosz, Joachim Bielski, Stanisław Orzechowski, Łukasz Górski, Stanisław Leszczyński, books on religious problems and hagiography. The books mostly concerned the history of Poland and Poles in their glorious times. Many of them discussed the period of partitions of Poland. From the beginning the intention of Tytus Działyński was to create a centre worthy of the Partia Library and to run a publishing house in the future. In 1861 his son, Jan Kanty Działyński inherited the collection. At that time in Kórnik there were 25 000 of works in 40 000 volumes, together with alnost 1000 valuable manuscripts. During the course of his life, Jan Kanty Działyński considerably enlarged the collection. He died childless on 30th March 1880. The heir to the property was his nephew, citizen of France, Władysław Zamoyski. The new owner of Kórnik, persecuted by the German invader was banned from effectively claming legal rights to his property. As a result, he entrusted Zygmunt Celichowski with running the estate. In 1924 Władysław Zamoyski formulated a project of the National Foundation “Zakłady Kórnickie”, which was approved in 1925 by the lower chamber of the Polish Parliament. Consequently, the collection became legally property of the Polish nation. In 1953 the collection was taken over by the Polish Academy of Sciences. From then on, the Kórnik Library has been enjoying its eminent scientific status and is one of the main the PAN’s libraries making its collection available exclusively for scientific purposes.
Representing the Phlegm: the Portrait of the Phlegmatic in Cesare Ripa’s Iconology
Authors: Koźluk Magdalena
Published: October 2023

This article is the second in a series of works which aims to contribute to documenting the success of the medical theory of individual complexions, derived from the theory of the four humours, through the major work which constitutes the Iconologia of the Italian humanist Cesare Ripa (1555–1622). We analysed here the figure of the phlegmatic and undertook to determine the reasons which governed the choice of the attributes retained by Ripa (portliness, pallor of the skin, coat in badger furs, tilted head and girded with a black headband, turtle) to offer poets, painters and sculptors the archetype of a character dominated by cold and damp phlegm. To this end, we have been interested in the medical and iconographic sources on which the author was able to rely and have tried to identify the attributes which are part of tradition and those which testify to an inuentio of the author in the iconographic art.

Objective: There are difficulties in determining the location of submerged implants when cover screws and healing screws are to be replaced. Because of this, a new implant cover screw has been designed. The purpose of this study was to investigate the properties of a novel implant cover screws in rabbits.
Methods: 10 New Zealand White rabbits were randomly divided into two groups. Diastema regions behind the incisor teeth were used for the placement of cover screws. In the control group, the screws (n=20) that received no processing were placed whereas, in the experimental group, the screws (n=20) that top surfaces were coated with europium and dysprosium doped strontium aluminate were placed to the diastema regions. Animals were sacrificed after 6 weeks. Dental LED curing light was applied to the oral mucosa regions in which screws were placed in the experimental group just after sacrification and the visibility of the screws was evaluated. To determine the biocompatibility of the coated screws, oral mucosas which contacted with the screws, livers and kidneys were removed and examined histopathologically.
Results: After light application, only the screws in the upper jaws of the experimental group became visible (n=10). Histopathological examinations performed on the kidneys, livers and oral mucosa tissues which contacted with the screws. There were no significant differences between the experimental and control groups regarding these tissues.
Conclusion: According to the results of this study, it can be concluded that the titanium implant cover screws coated with europium and dysprosium doped strontium aluminate were biocompatible for rabbits.

Bu araştırmanın amacı, değerler eğitimi bağlamında ilkokul öğretim programlarını incelemektir. Bu amaçtan hareketle araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden durum çalışması modeli tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmanın veri kaynakları, amaçlı örneklem yöntemlerinden ölçüt örnekleme yöntemi ile belirlenen Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı’nın 2018 yılı nda resmi web sayfasında yayınlanmış olan ilkokul öğretim programları oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada online platformlardan temin edilen ilkokul öğretim programlarındaki veriler, araştırmanın amaçları bağlamında betimsel ve içerik analiz tekniği ile çözümlenmiştir. Genel anlamda araştırma sonuçlarına bakıldığında; saygı, sorumluluk, bilimsellik ve duyarlılık değerlerinin diğer değerlere kıyasla ilkokul öğretim programlarında daha fazla yer aldığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bunun yanında, ilkokul öğretim programları içerisinde, en fazla değere yer veren programın Hayat Bilgisi öğretim programı olduğu, bunu sırasıyla Türkçe, İnsan Hakları Yurttaşlık ve Demokrasi ve Sosyal Bilgiler öğretim programlarının izlediği görülmüştür. Ayrıca araştırma kapsamında dikkat çekici sonuçlardan biri de Matametik ve Din Kültürü ve Ahlak Bilgisi öğretim programlarında görülmektedir. Bu bağlamda her iki programa da bakıldığında; diğer öğretim programlarına oranla değerlere çok az yer verildiği sonucunun ortaya çıktğı belirlenmiştir. Nitekim Matematik öğretim programında toplam bir, Din Kültürü ve Ahlak Bilgisi öğretim programında ise üç değere yer verilmiştir. İlkokul programları özelinde dikat çeken bazı sonuçlara bakıldığında ise Türkçe öğretim programında; en fazla saygı değerine en az ise estetik değerine yer verildiği görülmüştür. Hayat Bilgisi öğretim programında dikkat çekici bir şekilde duyarlılık değerine çok fazla yer verilirken; çalışkanlık, öz denetim, dostluk, sabır, paylaşma ve adalet gibi değerlere birer defa yer verildiği ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bunların yanı sıra Sosyal Bilgiler öğretim programında; duyarlılık değerinin, Fen Bilgisi öğretim programında; bilimsellik değerinin, İnsan Hakları, Yurttaşlık ve Demokrasi Dersi Öğretim Programında sorumluluk değerinin diğer değerlere kıyasla daha fazla yer aldığı görülmektedir
