Condensed Matter involving Dark Matter and Negative Mass
Authors: Scott Nicholas Alexander
Published: June 2021

The question that has bewildered the physics community is the colossal complexities of the idea of three categorical similarities dependent on each other. Dark Energy, Dark Matter and Anti-Gravity. One could say that Anti-Gravity is actually dark matter. In other words, they are one in the same. Based on my theory, all three of these similarities are connected via a formula I extended from the Potential Energy formula into a new, original formula. Is this the beginning of a quantization of a form of Matter that has never been quantified?

In prenatal stem cell transplantation and in utero gene therapy, a wide spectrum of genetic diseases can be diagnosed and treated before birth
Authors: Dowaidar Moataz
Published: June 2021

It is anticipated that in utero stem cell transplantation and in utero gene therapy will hold great promise in the treatment of a wide range of genetic disorders that may be discovered before birth. Before in utero stem cell transplantation and in utero gene therapy can be used in the clinic, it is necessary to properly investigate the ethical and safety problems involved. Future animal studies, as well as human studies, will be required to determine the likelihood and consequences of maternal exposure to medicine.

Developing nanotechnology platforms for peptide-based combinatory cancer gene therapy will likely have a significant influence on the development of personalized cancer medicines
Authors: Dowaidar Moataz
Published: June 2021

There are just a handful of combination drugs that are peptide/peptidomimetic-based that have been approved by the FDA for cancer treatment. Various additional peptides are now being explored in clinical trials for applications such as cancer vaccine immunotherapies, tumor targeting of existing chemotherapeutic drugs and radioisotopes, and antineoplastic agents taken in conjunction with chemotherapy treatments. They are, however, reliant on the use of free therapeutic chemicals, which have a poor clinical translation track record. The development of nanotechnology platforms for peptide-based combination cancer therapy is likely to have a substantial impact on the development of personalized cancer medicines in the future. In order to accelerate the clinical translation of peptide-based combination nanotherapy for cancer, we believe that increased collaboration between biomedical researchers, material scientists, oncologists, and members of the pharmaceutical industry will be beneficial. These barriers include a lack of relevant preclinical testing models, high synthesis and scale-up costs, and a lack of relevant preclinical testing models.
Will it float? Rising and settling velocities of common macroplastic foils
Authors: Kuizenga Boaz , van Emmerik Tim , Waldschläger Kryss , Kooi Merel
Published: June 2021

Plastic accumulates in the environment because of insufficient waste handling and the materials' high durability. Better understanding of plastic behaviour in the aquatic environment is needed to estimate transport and accumulation, which can be used for monitoring strategies, prevention measures, and plastic clean-up activities. Plastic transport models benefit from accurate description of particle characteristics, such as rising and settling velocities. For macroplastics, these are however still scarce. In this research, the rising and settling behaviour of three different polymer types (PET, PP, and PE) was investigated, which are the most common in the environment. All of the plastic particles were foils of different surface areas. A new method for releasing rising plastics without interfering the flow and disturbing the column was used. Four models that estimate the velocity based on the characteristics of the plastics are discussed, of which three are from literature, and one is newly derived. These models are validated using the data generated in this research, and data from another study on rising and settling velocities of plastic. From the models that were discussed, the best results are from the newly introduced velocity model for foils (R^2 = 0.96 and 0.58, for both datasets). This model shows potential to estimate the rising and settling velocity of plastics, and should be examined further by using additional data. The results of our paper can be used to further explore the vertical distribution of plastics in rivers, lakes and oceans, which is crucial to optimize future monitoring and cleanup efforts.
Pornography Use and Holistic Sexual Functioning: A Systematic Review of Recent Research
Authors: Hoagland Camille , Grubbs Joshua B.
Published: June 2021

Purpose of the Review: Pornography use is a common recreational activity in most developed nations with unrestricted internet access. As public awareness of pornography’s popularity has grown, so have concerns about potentially deleterious effects of pornography. One domain of particular concern has been the impact of pornography use and online sexual behaviors on sexual well-being. Over recent years, a number of studies have examined how pornography use relates to sexual well-being. The present work seeks to review such literature, with a particular focus on the effects of pornography on sexual functioning and sexual satisfaction. To this end, a systematic review of recent research (within the past 5 years) was conducted. Recent Findings: A total of 44 articles were included in the systematic review. In some situations, pornography use is associated with greater sexual functioning and greater sexual satisfaction, and in other cases it seems to be associated with lower sexual functioning and lower sexual satisfaction. Specifically, mere pornography use itself was most often not associated with sexual functioning in either direction, but self-reported problematic use of pornography was consistently associated with more sexual functioning problems. Summary: Collectively, results suggest a nuanced understanding of the effects of pornography on sexual well-being, with the context of and perceptions about pornography use being extremely important in predicting whether or not pornography has negative effects.
Ideologías lingüísticas en un centro de investigación en México
Authors: Despagne Broxner Colette Ilse , Sánchez Martínez Elizabeth
Published: June 2021

El objetivo de este estudio de caso crítico es identificar si las ideologías lingüísticas de los docentes-investigadores que laboran en un centro de investigación en ciencias sociales y humanidades en México influyen en su quehacer académico. La metodología es de corte cualitativo y se utilizaron cuestionarios, entrevistas y documentos oficiales para triangular los datos recolectados y, así, aumentar la fiabilidad de los resultados. Estos muestran que, en lo referente a la producción académica, se ha establecido un monolingüismo del inglés a nivel global y un monolingüismo del español a nivel local, que tienen impacto en las creencias y actitudes de los participantes. Por lo mismo, hacemos un llamado a la comunidad científica para adoptar un enfoque multilingüístico en el campo de la producción académica en la educación superior, lo que podría posiblemente ayudar a mantener la diversidad lingüística mexicana.

Presencia inadvertida de la literacidad crítica en México: ocho casos para tomarse en cuenta
Authors: Quesada Mejía Rosa María
Published: June 2021

Este artículo presenta ocho experiencias de trabajo pedagógico de literacidad crítica en espacios escolares públicos y privados en México. Se realizaron entrevistas y estudios de caso, y se tomaron como unidad de análisis la perspectiva y la práctica pedagógica de maestras y maestros específicos. Con base en visiones latinoamericanas de la literacidad crítica (Freire, 1970; Hernández, 2016; Hernández y Quesada, 2020), se reflexiona sobre la diferencia entre ambientes educativos donde se trabaja la literacidad y donde no se trabaja. El hallazgo central es que la literacidad crítica se da no solo en clases formales de lengua (lectura y redacción, literacidad académica), sino en cursos de otro tipo de contenido; incluso, entre docentes que no declaran trabajar de manera intencional la literacidad crítica, esta se da en su práctica pedagógica. Se concluye que la calidad de la educación sería mucho mejor si los docentes fueran conscientes de las posibilidades que les brinda un enfoque crítico en el trabajo con la literacidad y, para ello, podrían tomar como modelos las experiencias aquí presentadas.
La lectura cuando fallan los procesos implicados. Déficits en el alumnado universitario
Authors: Suárez Ramírez Sergio , Suárez Ramírez Miriam
Published: June 2021

La docencia universitaria pone al profesorado frente a las limitaciones del alumnado para leer con fluidez y comprender textos escritos. Para conocer de manera objetiva los niveles lectores del alumnado universitario, se desarrolló, durante el curso académico 2018-2019, un estudio en el que participaron 264 estudiantes, matriculados en los cursos de 2º y 3º de los grados de Educación Primaria y Educación Infantil en la Facultad de Educación de la Universidad de Extremadura, a quienes se aplicó la prueba TECLE. Los resultados trazan un perfil poco afortunado del alumnado y establecen diferencias con logros mejores en Educación Infantil y en el grupo de edad de los 19 a los 20 años en los estudiantes que participaron. Esto revela que muchos estudiantes no comprenden lo que están leyendo ni lo que han leído, a pesar de tener un largo recorrido como lectores y escritores en sus estudios previos. Por ello, es necesario replantearse los cometidos de la institución universitaria en este campo.

Published: June 2021

The article presents the essence and ways of the gender aspect of social development of future specialists in the socionomic sphere. Several legislative documents on the establishment of gender equality adopted at the state level in Ukraine are analyzed. The necessity of developing the gender aspect of specialists in the socionomic sphere is substantiated. Analyzed components: «gender» (one of the basic components of the social structure of society), «sociality» (acquired in the course of human life in society supra-individual structure of his personality), «hidden curriculum» (what is latently broadcast to students in parallel with the official curriculum). The components of the development of the gender component of human sociality (cognitive, value, emotional-personal activity-behavioural), which are formed based on the social experience of the individual, values of gender equality, subjectivity in gender construction, gender sensitivity, gender tolerance, empathy behavioural strategies. Theoretical provisions for the development of a safe and healthy educational environment are outlined. It is established that in practice the development of the gender component of the sociality of students of socionic specialities in the conditions of pedagogical higher education establishment becomes possible through the implementation of the following areas of work: organization of meetings with representatives of units concerned with prevention and prevention of discrimination; updating of programs and material of initial disciplines taking into account the leading principles of gender-sensitive approach; introduction of certain topics on gender issues into the educational process; promoting the self-education of student youth on the implementation of gender policy; creation of gender promotion centres in higher education institutions.

AİDİYET VE AİDİYETSİZLİK KAVRAMLARININ MEKÂNA ÖZGÜ SANATTA İNCELENMESİ
Authors: ÇİÇEK MIZRAK Zeynep Merve
Published: June 2021

Bireyin yaşadığı mekânla ve içinde bulunduğu toplumla ilişki kurması anlamına gelen ait olma duygusu, temel bir ihtiyaçtır. Ait olma ihtiyacını gideremeyen birey, aidiyetsizlik duygusunu; dışlanma, yabancılaşma gibi etkilerle deneyimleyerek toplumdan soyutlanmaktadır. Ait olamama duygusu, aidiyet konusunun problem olarak algılanmasının temelini oluşturur. Bu sebeple bu iki kavram birbirleri ile ilişkili olarak ele alınmıştır. Aidiyet kavramı; sosyoloji, psikoloji ve felsefe gibi disiplinlerin temel meseleleri arasındadır, sanat alanına da çeşitli dönemlerde konu olmuştur. Ait olma veya ait olamama durumlarının mekânlar ile ilişkili olmaları sebebiyle sanat alanına dair yapılan araştırmalar, mekân olgusunu ön planda tutan eserler ile sınırlandırılarak, seçilen eserler mekâna özgü sanat kapsamında incelenmişlerdir. Mekâna özgü sanat kapsamında incelenen eserler, yer için ve yer hakkında olma özelliğini taşırlar. Bu özellik, eserlerin galeri mekânları dışında; ev, sokak gibi gündelik yaşam alanı olarak nitelendirilen mekânlarda üretilmelerine sebep olmuştur. Eserlerin yaşam alanlarında üretilmeleri veya kamusal alan olarak nitelendirilen bölgelere yerleştirilmeleri, eserlerin kendilerine ait yer edindiklerini göstermektedir. Bu durum bireyin yer edinme çabası ile özdeşleşmektedir. Belirlenen eserleri üreten sanatçılar farklı ülkelerden, farklı uyruklara sahip sanatçılardır. Farklı ülkelerden çeşitli sanatçıların konuyu ele alması, meselenin her bireyi ilgilendiren, temel bir ihtiyaç olduğunu gösterir niteliktedir. Seçilen tüm eserler ev kavramı ile ilgilidir. Bazı sanatçılar kendi yaşadığı ev üzerinden aidiyet ilişkisini sorgularken, bazı sanatçılar konuyu göçmenlik meselesi doğrultusunda işleyerek ortaya koymuşlardır. Aidiyet meselesi genellikle göçmenlik meselesi olarak görülmektedir. Çalışmada söz konusu kavram, bireyin varoluşsal bir ihtiyacı olarak açıklanarak, konu hakkında üretilen eserlerin iç mekân ve dış mekân formlarında nasıl şekillendiği tartışılmıştır.

Stockmann, Reinhard, Meyer, Wolfgang und Taube, Lena (Eds.) (2020). The Institutionalisation of Evaluation in Europe. Palgrave Macmillan. ISBN: 978-3-030-32283-0.
Authors: Wollmann Hellmut
Published: June 2021

In covering 16 European countries, the 500 pages book provides a broad overview (“stocktaking”) of the development of evaluation in Europe focusing on the institutions and actors initiating, involved in, and using evaluation. The book is made up of the (conceptually reflected) introductory and (aptly) summarizing chapters written by the editors and the (substantive data-rich) country reports written by some 20 country experts. While all countries show a “macro” trend in the convergent rise of evaluation (particularly with regard to government-commissioned evaluation and of “professionalization” of evaluators), the countries show marked variance (country-specific “starting conditions”, dynamics (“waves”), institutional forms, etc.). The book can be deemed a valuable update and extension of the previous “stocktaking” of evaluation in the “International Atlas of Evaluation” edited by Jan-Eric Furubo, Ray C. Rist and Rolf Sandahl in 2002. It has the potential of being a standard source and handbook in evaluation-related teaching, research, and practice for many years.
Efficacy of EGFR Inhibitors and NSAIDs Against Basal Bladder Cancers in a Rat Model: Daily vs. Weekly Dosing, Combining EGFR Inhibitors with Naproxen, and Effects on RNA Expression
Authors: Lubet Ronald A. , Kumar Amit , Fox Jennifer T. , You Ming , Mohammed Altaf , Juliana M. Margaret , Grubbs Clinton J.
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND:

There are few effective treatments specifically aimed at basal bladder cancer.

OBJECTIVE:

Female F344 rats administered N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)-nitrosamine (OH-BBN) develop large invasive bladder cancers. We determined the efficacy of daily vs weekly dosing of EGFR inhibitors, determined the efficacy of naproxen combined with an EGFR inhibitor, and performed RNA analysis of bladder tumors treated for 5 days with EGFR inhibitors or NO-naproxen to identify pharmacodynamic biomarkers.

METHODS:

Erlotinib (6 mg/Kg BW daily or 21 or 42 mg/Kg BW weekly), lapatinib (25 or 75 mg/Kg BW daily or 263 or 525 mg/Kg BW weekly) and/or naproxen (30 mg/Kg BW daily) were administered to OH-BBN-treated rats beginning 2–12 weeks post OH-BBN. Rats were sacrificed 28 weeks after the final OH-BBN treatment to determine the effects of the EGFR inhibitors + naproxen on bladder weights and tumor development. In a separate study, rats were treated with OH-BBN. When palpable tumors developed, rats were treated with erlotinib, lapatinib, gefitinib, or the NSAID NO-naproxen for 5 days. RNA analysis was performed on the tumors.

RESULTS:

Daily or weekly dosing of erlotinib or lapatinib and daily dosing of naproxen reduced large tumor formation up to 70%, while combining daily lapatinib and naproxen reduced tumors 100%. RNA Analysis: All EGFR inhibitors strongly reduced cell proliferation and chromosome replication pathways, while NO-naproxen altered the G protein receptor, oxygen homeostasis and immune function pathways.

CONCLUSIONS:

While daily and weekly dosing with EGFR inhibitors and naproxen were effective, combining lapatinib and naproxen yielded no tumors. This might encourage its clinical use in an adjuvant setting with superficial basal tumors, and perhaps even in a more advanced setting. Furthermore, RNA analysis identified specific pathways that might be potential pharmacodynamic biomarkers in clinical trials.

BACKGROUND: In patients with ischemia and no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA), coronary microvascular dysfunction is associated with higher rate of major adverse cardiovascular events. OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate if microvascular dysfunction present in coronary microcirculation of patients with INOCA may be detected noninvasively in their peripheral circulation. METHODS: 25 patients with INOCA and 25 apparently healthy individuals (controls) were subjected to nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) and venous occlusion plethysmography (VOP) to evaluate peripheral microvascular function and blood collection for biomarkers analysis, including soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), endothelin-1 (ET-1) and C-reactive protein (CRP). RESULTS: Red blood cell velocity (RBCV) before and after ischemia (RBCVmax) were significantly lower in patients with INOCA (p = 0.0001). Time to reach maximal red blood cell velocity (TRBCVmax) was significantly longer in INOCA group (p = 0.0004). Concerning VOP, maximal blood flow (p = 0.004) and its relative increment were significantly lower in patients with INOCA (p = 0.0004). RBCVmax showed significant correlations with sVCAM-1 (r = –0.38, p < 0.05), ET-1 (r = –0.73, p < 0.05) and CRP (r = –0.33, p < 0.05). Relative increment of maximal post-ischemic blood flow was significantly correlated with sVCAM-1 (r = –0.42, p < 0.05) and ET-1 (r = –0.48, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The impairment of microvascular function present in coronary microcirculation of patients with INOCA can be also detected in peripheral microcirculation.
The effect of ankle flexibility on the relationship between knee isokinetic strength and the speed of underwater dolphin kicks in male competitive swimmers
Authors: Shen Yupeng , Fu Yanqing , Ge Yu , Wen Yuhong
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND:

Lower-extremity muscle strength and ankle flexibility play key roles in underwater swimming movements.

OBJECTIVES:

To investigate the relationship between knee isokinetic strength and the speed of underwater dolphin kicks (UDK-S) in competitive male swimmers and identify whether ankle flexibility affects the association between knee isokinetic strength and UDK-S.

METHODS:

Fifty-two highly trained male swimmers participated in this study. The speed at which the participants travelled 15 m performing UDKs was calculated as UDK-S. Knee flexor and extensor concentric isokinetic strength at fast (240[Formula: see text]/s) and slow (60[Formula: see text]/s) velocities and ankle flexibility were evaluated. Bayesian framework analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between these variables and determine whether this relationship is influenced by ankle flexibility.

RESULTS:

There was strong-to-extremely strong evidence (Bayes factor [Formula: see text] 24.4 to 198.3) that knee extensor (60[Formula: see text]/s) and knee flexor (60[Formula: see text]/s and 240[Formula: see text]/s) strength are positively and generally moderately correlated with UDK-S. Ankle plantar flexion flexibility was identified to be a moderator between knee extensor strength (60[Formula: see text]/s) and UDK-S.

CONCLUSIONS:

Knee extensor and knee flexor strength were significantly correlated with UDK-S, and the relationship between knee muscle strength and UDK-S was influenced by ankle plantar flexion flexibility in male competitive swimmers.
Correlation of grip and knee extension strength in mature adults
Authors: Bohannon Richard W.
Published: June 2021

BACKROUND AND OBJECTIVE:

Grip and knee strength are commonly measured but controversy exists as to whether either is a proxy for the other. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to summarize the correlation between the 2 variables.

METHODS:

Relevant literature was sought using PubMed, Google, and a hand search. Information on populations, measurements, and correlations were extracted. Correlational data were subjected to meta-analysis.

RESULTS:

Results from 17 studies were consolidated. The summary correlation between grip and knee extension strength was 0.64 with 95% CI of 0.57 to 0.71. Data were highly heterogeneous but did not show publication bias.

CONCLUSION:

The correlation between the grip and knee extension strength is good. However, it is not good enough to justify using either as a proxy for the other.
Deep learning approach for UHF RFID-based indoor localization
Authors: Ma Haishu , Ma Zongzheng , Li Lixia , Gao Ya
Published: June 2021

Due to the proliferation of the IoT devices, indoor location-based service is bringing huge business values and potentials. The positioning accuracy is restricted by the variability and complexity of the indoor environment. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), as a key technology of the Internet of Things, has became the main research direction in the field of indoor positioning because of its non-contact, non-line-of-sight and strong anti-interference abilities. This paper proposes the deep leaning approach for RFID based indoor localization. Since the measured Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) can be influenced by many indoor environment factors, Kalman filter is applied to erase the fluctuation. Furthermore, linear interpolation is adopted to increase the density of the reference tags. In order to improve the processing ability of the fingerprint database, deep neural network is adopted together with the fingerprinting method to optimize the non-linear mapping between fingerprints and indoor coordinates. The experimental results show that the proposed method achieves high accuracy with a mean estimation error of 0.347 m.
Visual stress responses to static images are associated with symptoms of Persistent Postural Perceptual Dizziness (PPPD)

Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: Images that deviate from natural scene statistics in terms of spatial frequency and orientation content can produce visual stress (also known as visual discomfort), especially for migraine sufferers. These images appear to over-activate the visual cortex. OBJECTIVE: To connect the literature on visual discomfort with a common chronic condition presenting in neuro-otology clinics known as persistent postural perceptual dizziness (PPPD). Patients experience dizziness when walking through highly cluttered environments or when watching moving stimuli. This is thought to arise from maladaptive interaction between vestibular and visual signals for balance. METHODS: We measured visual discomfort to stationary images in patients with PPPD (N = 30) and symptoms of PPPD in a large general population cohort (N = 1858) using the Visual Vertigo Analogue Scale (VVAS) and the Situational Characteristics Questionnaire (SCQ). RESULTS: We found that patients with PPPD, and individuals in the general population with more PPPD symptoms, report heightened visual discomfort to stationary images that deviate from natural spectra (patient comparison, F (1, 1865) = 29, p < 0.001; general population correlations, VVAS, rs (1387) = 0.46, p < 0.001; SCQ, rs (1387) = 0.39, p < 0.001). These findings were not explained by co-morbid migraine. Indeed, PPPD symptoms showed a significantly stronger relationship with visual discomfort than did migraine (VVAS, zH = 8.81, p < 0.001; SCQ, zH = 6.29, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: We speculate that atypical visual processing –perhaps due to a visual cortex more prone to over-activation –may predispose individuals to PPPD, possibly helping to explain why some patients with vestibular conditions develop PPPD and some do not.
Disruption of self-motion perception without vestibular reflex alteration in Ménière’s disease
Authors: Faralli Mario , Ori Michele , Ricci Giampietro , Roscini Mauro , Panichi Roberto , Pettorossi Vito Enrico
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: Self-motion misperception has been observed in vestibular patients during asymmetric body oscillations. This misperception is correlated with the patient’s vestibular discomfort. OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether or not self-motion misperception persists in post-ictal patients with Ménière’s disease (MD). METHODS: Twenty-eight MD patients were investigated while in the post-ictal interval. Self-motion perception was studied by examining the displacement of a memorized visual target after sequences of opposite directed fast-slow asymmetric whole body rotations in the dark. The difference in target representation was analyzed and correlated with the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) score. The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) and clinical tests for ocular reflex were also evaluated. RESULTS: All MD patients showed a noticeable difference in target representation after asymmetric rotation depending on the direction of the fast/slow rotations. This side difference suggests disruption of motion perception. The DHI score was correlated with the amount of motion misperception. In contrast, VOR and clinical trials were altered in only half of these patients. CONCLUSIONS: Asymmetric rotation reveals disruption of self-motion perception in MD patients during the post-ictal interval, even in the absence of ocular reflex impairment. Motion misperception may cause persistent vestibular discomfort in these patients.

Published: June 2021

The article is devoted to the study of parks of architectural miniatures, as an important component of historical city parks. The article analyses scientific works devoted to the study of various aspects of historical parks and their role in the sustainable development of cities. Identified the need to create a layout exposition. The expositions of park - exhibition may be different, but it is the “mock-up” way of presenting the expositions that is attractive for attracting tourist flows. The miniature park can be created as a separate park or as an exhibition part in one of city parks. There are several dozen architectural miniatures park in the world. Small cities with amazing accuracy reproduce the architecture and geographical landscapes of a country, or even several countries at once. In fact, these unique complexes allow you to see hundreds of monuments of world culture in a few hours, get a closer look at the monuments of different cities and make a short excursion into history.
FEATURES OF LOCALIZATION OF THE WOODEN ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCHES IN GALICIA IN URBAN PLANNING UNITS
Authors: Merie Olha
Published: June 2021

The article presents the results of a study on the peculiarities of the localization of wooden Roman-Catholic churches in Galicia in urban units. It is established that the architecture of wooden Roman Catholic churches in Galicia in the second half of the XVII-th – first half of the XX-th centuries depended on a number of urban factors formed under the influence of geographical zoning, political circumstances, stylistic preferences and more. There are five main types of structural organization of the settlement or its part, in which the sacred object is localized: central, linear, axial, radial, combined. It is established that the planning and three-dimensional composition of the temple complex was influenced, first of all, by the location in the settlement system, in particular, five typical schemes were revealed: 1) at the market area; 2) at the main street; 3) in the central part of the settlement on a visible elevated place; 4) in the peripheral part, near the yards of the owners of settlements; 5) on the outskirts of the settlement – in the cemetery. The first two schemes are typical to small towns. It has been confirmed that one of the main features by which it is also possible to differentiate the studied objects is orientation. It has been confirmed that the dominant role of the temple was often provided by a tower in order to establish the Latin rite in rural areas. It has been found that, unlike Polish temples, which are more often the accents in the surrounding buildings, for German towers or turrets – a mandatory element. There is a difference in the national affiliation of the church in the way of landscaping, in particular – near Polish churches planted conifers, while near the temples of German colonists – deciduous species (oaks, lindens, ashes), which was due to their traditional symbolic meaning.
