This study was intended to explore sociodemographic, nutritional, and health-related factors on the incidence of COVID-19 infection within the Egyptian population by assessing the frequency and determinants of post-COVID-19 symptoms and complications. A cross-sectional study using a structured survey on 15,166 participants was adopted. The results revealed common symptoms including fever (79.1%), cough (74.5%), anosmia& ageusia (68.4%), and dyspnea (66.9%). The patients were nonsmokers (83.9%), while 9.7% were mild smokers. The percentage of infected patients with comorbidities versus those without comorbidities were 29%, 71%, respectively. The highest incidence of infection was in those patients with hypertension (14.8%) and diabetes (10.9%), especially females with age >50 years and obesity (BMI; 30–39.9). The highest risks were observed for anticoagulants in the age above 50 years, morbid obesity, presence of comorbidities, and being a healthcare worker. The predictors of clot risk were in the age above 50 years, non-educated, and eating meat and eggs. Nonetheless, the highest risk of using antidepressants was in patients >50 years and those who traveled abroad. These findings and similarities within the surrounding region, the Middle East, North Africa, and South Europe, indicate the possibility of sharing the same viral strain and characteristics that may predict a similar vaccine efficacy and response.

Recently, a series of papers reported preparation and physicochemical properties of various kinds of water treated in contact with various gases with low-temperature, low-pressure glow plasma of low frequency (LPGP). Consecutive papers presented results of watering numerous herbal plants with those kinds of water in planting of numerous herbal plants. Always, the watering influenced the yield and quality of the crops and considerably changed the composition of the essential oils extracted from the watered plants. This paper provides the effects of watering of Cannabis sativum var. Finola with water LPGP-treated either in the air (LPGPA), under molecular nitrogen (LPGPN) or carbon dioxide (LPGPC). Cannabis sativa, particularly its botanic class called hemp, attracts great attention for its numerous applications. They include rope, textiles, clothing, shoes, food, paper, bioplastics, insulation, biofuel and industrial fibre. The watering was maintained for 12 weeks. Regardless of the kind of the used plasma-treated water, a considerable increase in the plant crop yield was noted for first 7 weeks. Further cultivation resulted in a minute increase in the yield. The watering with LPGPC offered the highest crop yield, followed by nontreated water, LPGPN and LPGPA. The yield of essential oil per 1 g of plant was independent of the used kind of plasma-treated water. Watering Finola with LPGPA resulted in a decrease in the level of cannabidivarin (CBD V) and considerable increase in the deal of Δ 9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC). The levels of the remaining components of the essential oil slightly decreased with respect to that in the control sample. Almost identical trends in the influence of watering upon the composition of essential oil were observed in the case of LPGPN. However, an unusually strong decrease in the level of CBD V accompanied by a very high increase in the level of Δ9-THC could be noted. The performed study provided strong evidence that watering seeds and plants of Finola with various kinds of the LPGP-treated water could modulate and even tailor the crop yield, functional properties of the plant and essential oils extracted from it. The composition of the essential oil isolated from the plant watered with LPGPN suggests its application as a substitute of medical marijuana (medical cannabis).
Disinfection of Therapeutic Spa Waters: Applicability of Sodium Hypochlorite and Hydrogen Peroxide-Based Disinfectants

Published: February 2022

The microbial water quality of therapeutic pools operating without disinfection is recurrently compromised, posing a risk to bathers’ health. The complex composition of such waters and the sensitivity of their therapeutic components hinder the use of traditional chlorine-based disinfectants. The present study aimed to investigate the applicability of a hydrogen peroxide-based disinfectant in therapeutic water in comparison with hypochlorite. Disinfection efficacy, byproduct formation, and the fate of therapeutic components were tested for both disinfectants under laboratory conditions, applying different doses and contact times. Disinfection efficacy was found to be matrix-dependent, especially that of hydrogen peroxide against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (a 10- to 1000-fold difference). Hypochlorite treatment presented a significant chemical risk through the generation of byproducts, mainly brominated and iodinated compounds and combined chlorine. Of the alleged therapeutic components, sulfide ions were eliminated (≥86% loss) by both disinfectants, and hypochlorite reacted with iodide ions as well (≥70% removal). Based on their composition, only 2% of Hungarian therapeutic waters can be treated by chlorination due to high concentrations of ammonia and/or organic compounds. Hydrogen peroxide is applicable to 82% of the waters, as the presence of sulfide ions is the only limiting factor. Due to the matrix effect, close control of residual disinfectant concentration is necessary to ensure microbial safety.
Diagnosis and treatment of paroxysmal tachycardia
Authors:   Belgorod Regional Oncological Dispensary, Belgorod, Armakov Sergey Petrovich
Published: February 2022

Paroxysmal tachycardia means rapid heartbeat that starts and stops abruptly, with the heart rate reaching 140–180 beats per minute and higher, while the rhythm of the heartbeat is usually preserved. The duration of a paroxysmal tachycardia attack can vary from several minutes to several hours, and in very rare cases it can last longer. Paroxysmal tachycardia is a variant of arrhythmia, and in some cases, it can also occur in healthy people, in particular, under the influence of stressful situations, with intense physical exertion, and the use of energy drinks. The organic nature of the disease can be associated with the pathology of the conduction system of the heart, damage to the heart muscle against the background of inflammation, intoxication and ischemia. It can develop after a myocardial infarction and against the background of congenital or acquired heart defects. An attack of paroxysmal tachycardia may be accompanied by dizziness, nausea, noise in the head, trembling in the body, precollaptoid state or even fainting. Depending on the location of the electrical impulse that causes an attack of tachycardia, it can be ventricular and supraventricular. The tactics of treatment and the further effectiveness of ongoing therapeutic measures depend on a correctly established diagnosis.
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is one of the most common diseases of the cardiovascular system, which is based on a disorder of the trophism of the heart muscle against the background of pathological changes in the coronary vessels. The leading factor in changes in coronary vessels is stenosing atherosclerosis, which results in impaired blood flow. Risk factors include male gender, older age, a burdened familial history, as well as low physical activity, arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and obesity. Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death, especially in developed countries, and the number one cause of medical visits related to heart and vascular problems. One of the most common manifestations of ischemic heart disease is angina pectoris. When pain sensations appear against the background of physical activity or emotional stress, it is called angina of effort, but if angina manifestations occur outside the period of physical and mental activity, we are speaking about resting angina pectoris. There are acute and chronic forms of ischemic heart disease, and while cardiologists and cardiac resuscitators usually deal with acute conditions, dynamic monitoring of patients after a myocardial infarction or with angina pectoris is a part of the responsibility of a general practitioner.

In their practice, family doctors may encounter symptoms that require differential diagnosis between organic and functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract and malignant neoplasms. The similarity of the clinical picture in some cases requires timely making the right decision about the tactics of examination, additional diagnostic measures and further referral to specialized medical institutions for treatment. One of these diseases that do not have specific clinical features at an early stage is gastric cancer, which is a malignant degeneration of the epithelium of the gastric mucosa. Symptoms of gastric cancer in its initial stages are limited to dyspeptic disorders, loss of appetite and unexpressed asthenia, which makes its manifestations similar to many diseases that affect the gastrointestinal tract — gastritis, peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum, adenomatous polyps of the gastric mucosa. The main diagnostic method that allows making the correct diagnosis is gastroscopy, which makes it possible not only to assess the condition of the mucosa, but also to take material for a biopsy with further histological examination of the tissue. Since the main treatment for gastric cancer is surgery, a correct and timely diagnosis plays a significant role in the further prognosis of the disease and the patient's quality of life.
The history of the origin of the blood service
Authors:   State Institution «Lugansk Republican Blood Transfusion Station», Lugansk, Sakhno Natalia Nikolaevna
Published: February 2022

The development of blood donation for tens and even hundreds of years was accompanied by wonderful stories of salvation and tragic stories of the death of patients, as well as incredible ups and downs — from the deification of this method to the state and church ban on its use. There are three main stages in the history of the formation of transfusiology as a science: the era before the discovery of the circulatory system, the period when blood transfusion had no scientific justification due to ignorance of the existence of the four main blood groups, and, finally, the modern stage, which began with the discovery of blood group systems by Karl Landsteiner, and later the Rh factor. Despite the fact that more than 100 years have passed since this great discovery, a worthy alternative to human-to-human donor blood transfusion has not yet been found.
How Sweden is coping with the coronavirus epidemic
Authors:   Kremenskaya Central District Hospital, Frolova Elena Vladimirovna
Published: February 2022

When the whole world faced a never-before-seen coronavirus pandemic in March 2020, the governments of different countries behaved differently. Some chose the French path of severe restrictions, while others, trying to maintain the economic stability of the country, refrained from introducing a total lockdown. Sweden took a very special position among European countries — in the hope of developing collective immunity, the country refused to introduce strict restrictive measures, did not stop classes in schools or prohibit mass events (until the end of 2020, the Swedes were allowed to gather in groups of up to 50 people). Sweden's strategy to fight the coronavirus has captured the attention of the world, causing a lot of controversy. And if a year ago it was too early to draw any conclusions, today, having analyzed a number of indicators, it is already possible to ask the question whose strategy turned out more successful: the one of the countries that seriously limited their citizens in matters of movement and interpersonal communication, or has the «Swedish model» proved its worth after all?

Caries and inflammation of the gums are one of the most common diseases in the world, they are diagnosed in both children and adults. According to the World Health Organization, dental pathology is not inferior in prevalence to cardiovascular disease, and in some cases can also have serious consequences. The profession of a dentist has been known to the world for a very long time; archaeologists find the remains of teeth with traces of drilling and filling in the remains of people whose age is several thousand years. It was found that initially shamans were engaged in dental treatment; various medicinal herbs and spells were used for this. In ancient Egypt, this profession was very common and in demand; it is the Egyptians who are credited with the invention of the prototype of a toothbrush and tooth powder — crushed shells, ash and pumice were used for these purposes. It is believed that it was the Egyptians who first came up with the idea of binding teeth with gold wire and developed a composition for filling teeth. To date, the profession of a dentist is one of the most popular and widespread in the world, and in order to raise public awareness about maintaining dental health, it was decided to celebrate the International Dentist Day on February 9.

Analysis of the data used in legal materials in this research will carry out in a qualitative analysis of primary data and secondary data that describe and analyze the standard clauses and vehicle withdrawal clauses in consumer financing agreements, as well as concluding by deductive method. This study concludes that the legal force of a standard clause in a valid and binding consumer financing agreement applies as a law to the parties as long as it meets formal and material conditions based on Law No.8/1999 concerning Consumer Protection, OJK Regulation No. 1/POJK/07/2013 concerning Consumer Protection in the Financial Services Sector, OJK Circular Letter No.13/SE.OJK.07/2014 concerning Standard Agreement and OJK Regulation No. 35 /POJK.05/2018 concerning Business of a Financing Company. Legal protection for consumers in the application of a vehicle withdrawal clause because of a breach of contract by the consumer is preventive legal protection and repressive legal protection. Legal reasoning for judges in making decisions does not consider the validity of the agreement process in the consumer financing agreement because the vehicle withdrawal clauses listed can categorize as defects in the agreement abuse of circumstances.

In writing abstracts, authors usually include metadiscourses such as hedges and boosters. This study aims to compare the use of hedges and boosters in writing undergraduate thesis abstract as a mean of communicative strategy to increase or decrease the strength of the statement. This research data was taken from 25 undergraduate thesis abstract of English Language Education Study Program and 25 from Mathematic Study Program at Qomaruddin University Gresik with 100-250 word range and analyzed based on Hyland's taxonomy (2005).The results showed that there were 22 variants of hedges words with a total use of 53 words and 17 variants of boosters words with a total use of 130 words. In the undergraduate thesis abstract, the students of the English Language Education Study Program dominantly use hedges words, such as in the adverb and verb classes. However, for the use of hedges words in undergraduate thesis abstracts, Mathematic Study Program students are more dominant than English Language Education Study Program students even though the word variants used are still dominated by English Language Education Study Program students, such as in the verb class. In addition, students using hedges have greater value than boosters in writing undergraduate thesis abstracts as a way to reduce the risk of opposition, to show courtesy and to obscure authorship and strengthen opinions. Boosters are also used to demonstrate the originality of research. Hedging by the students shows that there is a lack of knowledge of English rhetoric. Thus, the use of hedges and boosters can also help to improve students’ academic writing skills.

This research is a quantitative descriptive study with a correlational approach, the data was collected using a questionnaire method. The research sample was taken with a total sampling of 67 students who carried out nursing clinical practice. The results of data analysis showed that there was a very significant negative relationship on self-efficacy with anxiety, which was indicated by the correlation coefficient rX1Y = - 0.655 with p < 0.01. This means that the better the self-efficacy, the lower the anxiety experienced. Furthermore, there is a very significant negative relationship between knowledge and anxiety, which is indicated by the correlation coefficient rX2Y = - 0.674 with p < 0.01. This means that the more knowledge students have, the less anxiety they experience. There is a relationship between self-efficacy and knowledge with anxiety, which is indicated by the coefficient F = 32.646 with p < 0.01. The magnitude of the correlation is r = 0.711 with R2 = 0.505, this means that together self-efficacy and knowledge contribute to the emergence of anxiety by 50.5% and there is 49.5% anxiety experienced by nursing students is influenced by other factors. By assuming knowledge is in a constant condition, every increase of 1 unit of self-efficacy variable will reduce the level of anxiety experienced by students by 0.375, and vice versa by assuming self-efficacy in constant conditions, every increase of 1 unit of knowledge variable will reduce student anxiety level by 1,996.

Встатье подробно охарактеризован синдром лимфаденопатии, представлены терминология, причины, патофизиологические механизмы, классификация, варианты поражения лимфатических узлов при инфекционной и неинфекционной патологии. Приведен алгоритм диагностического поиска, который состоит из 3 этапов: оценки клинико-анамнестических данных, проведения рутинных лабораторных и инструментальных исследований и выполнения при необходимости дополнительных исследований согласно клинической ситуации. Предоставлены подходы к тактике ведения пациентов с неуточненной лимфаденопатией. Учитывая мультидисциплинарность синдрома лимфаденопатии, успешное решение проблемы дифференциальной диагностики этого состояния зависит от конструктивного взаимодействия многих специалистов (семейных врачей, инфекционистов, онкологов, гематологов, ревматологов, морфологов), их осведомленности о заболеваниях, проявляющихся увеличением лимфатических узлов, и понимания тактики ведения пациентов.

В статье представлены данные об изменениях в клетках буккального эпителия (БЭ) у 15 пациентов с эрозивно-язвенной формой красного плоского лишая слизистой оболочки полости рта. Красный плоский лишай слизистой оболочки полости рта – это хроническое воспалительное неинфекционное заболевание, которое вызывает поражение тканей слизистой оболочки полости рта, языка или десен. Исследования изменений цитогенетических нарушений клеток буккального эпителия у пациентов с красным плоским лишаем слизистой оболочки полости рта единичны, и не представлены данные по изменению ядерных аномалий в динамике лечения. Проведенные исследования показывают, что лечение пациентов с красным плоским лишаем слизистой оболочки полости рта способствует в незначительной степени снижению клеток с генетическими нарушениями и повышению клеток с апоптозной активностью, а также избавлению от данных аберрантных клеток.

Lichen planus of the oral mucosa is a chronic, inflammatory, non-infectious disease that damages the tissues of the oral mucosa of the tongue or gums. Studies of changes in cytogenetic disorders of buccal epithelium (EB) cells in patients with oral lichen planus are rare and data on changes in nuclear anomalies in the dynamics of treatment are not presented. The conducted research shows that the treatment of patients with oral lichen planus contributes to a small extent to a decrease in cells with genetic disorders and an increase in cells with apoptotic activity and helps to get rid of these aberrant cells.

Перенесенная беременными инфекция COVID-19 в первом и втором триместрах беременности может оказать неблагоприятное воздействие на течение беременности и родов. Мы исследовали 109 беременных женщин с лабораторно подтвержденной инфекцией COVID-19 методом ПЦР в сроке гестации 4 недели – 21 неделя 6 дней. Наиболее частыми симптомами заболевания у этих беременных явились повышение температуры (у 82 (75,2%) пациентов) и аносмия (у 73 (66,9%)), которая часто сочеталась с агевзией. Редкими проявлениями были миалгия (у 12 (11%) пациентов), одышка (у 7 (6,4%)), ринорея (у 7 (6,4%)), чувство тяжести в груди (у 4 (3,7%)). При проведении комбинированного скрининга первого триместра на выявление групп высокого риска по хромосомным заболеваниям мы установили снижение показателя free β-hCG до 0,94 (0,64–1,30) МоМ у перенесших COVID-19 в первом триместре. Частота поражения мочевыводящей системы плода составила 7 (6,4%) случаев, из них врожденный порок развития (ВПР) выявлен у 4 (3,7%) пациентов. Все роды в группе исследования были срочными. Средний срок родоразрешения составил 38,6 (37–42) недели. Роды в 8% случаев осложнились развившимся дистресс-синдромом плода, что потребовало их завершения экстренным кесаревым сечением.

Infection carried by pregnant women with COVID-19 in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy can have an adverse effect on the formation of obstetric complications associated with the pathology of implantation. We examined 109 pregnant women with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infection by PCR at 4 weeks gestation – 21 weeks 6 days. The most frequent symptoms of the disease in these pregnant women were fever in 82 (75.2%) and anosmia, which was often combined with ageusia in 73 (66.9%). Rare manifestations were myalgia in 12 (11%) pregnant women, shortness of breath in 7 (6.4%), rhinorrhea in 7 (6.4%), complaints of a feeling of heaviness in the chest in 4 (3.7%). We established a decrease in the free β-hCG index to 0.94 (0.64–1.30) MoM. The incidence of fetal urinary tract damage was 7 (6.4%), of which 4 (3.7%) had congenital malformations. All childbirth was urgent. The average delivery time was 38.6 (37–42) weeks. Labor in 8% was complicated by the developed distress syndrome of the fetus in labor, which required the completion of labor by emergency caesarean section.

Authors: Анваров Ж.О. , Махкамов Н.К.
Published: February 2022

В данной статье на клиническом примере интервенционного лечения пациента с ишемической болезнью сердца описаны преимущества технологии оптической когерентной томографии (ОКТ) при стентировании сложного бифуркационного стеноза коронарных артерий, который оценивался по критериям классификации DEFINITION. Коронарная ангиография является «золотым стандартом» визуализации поражений коронарных артерий. Однако эта техника ограничена двухмерным представлением силуэта просвета и не всегда дает точную информацию о результатах ангиопластики и стентирования коронарных артерий. ОКТ сегодня – это ключевой метод внутрикоронарной визуализации, который в состоянии преодолеть многие недостатки ангиографического метода.

In this article, the advantages of optical coherence tomography (OCT) for stenting complex bifurcation stenosis of the coronary arteries is described in clinical example of interventional treatment of coronary heart disease, which was evaluated according to the DEFINITION classification criteria. Coronary angiography is the "gold standard" of visualization of coronary artery lesions. However, this technique is limited to a two- dimensional representation of the silhouette of the lumen and does not always provide accurate information about the results of angioplasty and stenting of the coronary arteries. OCT today is a key method of intracoronary imaging, which is able to overcome many disadvantages of the angiographic method.

Authors: Wesolowski Mariusz , Poteraj-Oleksiak Agnieszka , Kowalska Danuta
Published: February 2022

Abstract: In the process of using airport pavements, destructive processes of concrete slabs caused by operational loads and environmental factors are observed. One of the most common damages to concrete surfaces is thresholds (faults) - vertical displacements of the edges of the slabs or displacements on the cracks of the slabs, resulting from damage to the subsoil or foundation. Performing periodic inspections of the technical condition of the pavement allows you to monitor the changes taking place and at the same time plan repairs, which is associated with the selection of appropriate materials for their implementation. This article is devoted to the issue of stabilization and leveling of concrete pavement slabs in the low-pressure injection technology with the use of specialized injection materials (resins). The technology of board re-leveling is used in places of settlement, permanently strengthening the subsoil or substructure, as well as allowing to restore the required parameters of surface evenness. The article presents the results of laboratory tests as well as the results of field tests carried out before and after the injection works, based on the example of works carried out at one of the airport facilities in Poland. The article presents, among others the results of the load-bearing and evenness tests of the pavement and the results of the tests with the use of GPR. The presented technology belongs to non-invasive repair solutions and short-term works. Keywords: concrete pavement; Geotechnical injections; Keystroke plates
Application of reclaimed asphalt in recycled road pavements
Authors: Skotnicki Lukasz , Kuzniewski Jaroslaw
Published: February 2022

Abstract: This paper presents the possibilities of reusing recycled materials in road pavement constructions. Waste materials came from old and damaged pavement layers. The reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) was used to create new layers of road surfaces - the base layers. The base layers were made of mineral-cement-emulsion mixtures (MCE). The main issue was to assess the impact of the RAP in MCE mixes on the physical, mechanical and rheological properties of the recycled base layer. The use of reclaimed asphalt in MCE mixes reduces road construction costs and allows for the ecological coexistence of the investment with the environment. The research results were developed as part of the project entitled "The innovative technology used the binding agent optimization that provides the long service life of the recycled base layer" (TECHMATSTRATEG1/349326/9/NCBR/2017) within the scientific undertaking of Strategic Research and Development Program entitled "Modern Materials Technology" (TECHMATSTRATEG I), which is financed by the National Center for Research and Development (Polish NCBiR). Keywords: MCE mixture; Road pavement recycling; Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP); Cement dusty by-products

Published: February 2022

Slag analysis is very important in maintaining the quality standards of metallurgical processes. The chemical structure and the physical features of slag play a very important role in the management of blast furnace (BF) processes, favouring the development of the decreasing reactions and acting as a thermoregulator of the furnace by the adjustment of heat transmission through the metallic bath. In this paper, the following ranges of oxides concentrations were obtained in BF slags by X-ray fluorescence with wavelength dispersion (WXRF): 32.29-35.56% SiO2; 42.41-44.1 % CaO; 12.20-15.63% Al2O3; 0.40-0.85% MnO; 5.38-6.17% MgO; 0.45-0.69% FeO. The calculated basicity index of slags varied between 1.031 and 1.103, denoting the acidic character of slags.
