Published: May 2022

This article discusses the topical issue of improving the distribution of air in the premise due to application of the all type rectangular air streams: flat, axisymmetric and rectangular ones. The purpose of the article is research of the all types rectangular air streams, analytical dependencies obtaining for determination of the air velocity attenuation coefficient, aerodynamic local resistance coefficient and noise level from the ratio of slit length to its height; optimization of the inflow slit side's ratio. It has been established that increase of the inflow slit sides ratio results in the air velocity attenuation coefficient decrease and results in increase of the noise level and resistance coefficient of the rectangular slit. The optimal ratio of the sides of a rectangular slit is determined by the combination of aerodynamics and energetics, as well as of the sound power level.
Case for Animal Spirituality—Part 2
Authors: Cunningham Paul
Published: May 2022

This is the second part of a two-part article presenting the theoretical and empirical case for nonhuman animal (hereafter, ‘animal’) spirituality. Part 1 discussed the relevance of evolutionary theory and species differences for understanding animals’ capacity to have spiritual experience, conceptual issues related to defining animal spirituality, and methodological considerations regarding analogical reasoning and animal-centered anthropomorphism as heuristic strategies in the study of animal spirituality. Issues related to the question of animal consciousness and the use of evolutionary panentheism as a philosophical/theological frame for theorizing about animal spirituality were discussed. Part 2 examines six biopsychosocial capabilities of animals that are building blocks of human spirituality—cognition, imagination, emotion, moral sense, personality, and value-life (Maslow’s phrase)—and proposes an ontic pluralism of animal spiritualities. Part 2 concludes with a discussion of the wideranging implications for human society of consciously accepting the possibility of animal spirituality and capacity to have spiritual experience.

Published: May 2022

O objetivo do artigo é compreender, pela lente ergológica, as dramáticas do uso do corpo si no exercício da profissão de cabeleireiros e os saberes construídos por estes profissionais. A pesquisa foi de natureza qualitativa descritiva e a produção de dados aconteceu via observação direta do trabalho e entrevista semiestruturada com 8 cabelereiros que atuavam em dois salões de beleza na cidade de Vitória-ES. Os dados foram analisados utilizando-se a técnica de análise de conteúdo a partir de 2 categorias temáticas pré-determinadas, “dramáticas” e “corpo si”, além de outras 2 categorias que emergiram durante a pesquisa, “o lado precário da beleza” e “novos saberes”. Concluiu-se que a profissão de cabeleireiro é precária devido às longas jornadas de trabalho, insegurança em relação ao futuro e à falta de garantias trabalhistas. Quanto aos novos saberes, destacou-se a habilidade dos profissionais em adaptar os protocolos de utilização de produtos em busca de melhores resultados. Por fim, a pesquisa traz uma contribuição sobre a possibilidade de existência da “contra-atividade de trabalho”, que seria o uso de si por si fazendo com que a atividade de trabalho não seja realizada pelo trabalhador.

Authors: De Mesquita Goes Renato César , Rodrigues Rubens Carlos , Aquino Cabral Augusto César , Santos Sandra Maria
Published: May 2022

Tendo em vista o crescimento e a representatividade das igrejas evangélicas na sociedade brasileira, bem como a adoção de modelos empresariais no processo de gestão destas entidades, as dominâncias cerebrais dos gestores se destacam, ao lado das competências gerenciais, como vantagens competitivas neste segmento, emergindo questões relevantes sobre a atuação de seus líderes e gestores. Sabendo que as competências gerencias são mais efetivas quando exercidas em momentos apropriados e associadas aos papéis gerenciais, este artigo objetiva analisar a relação entre os papéis gerenciais assumidos pelos ministros evangélicos e as suas dominâncias cerebrais. Para tanto, realizou-se um estudo descritivo com abordagem quantitativa, por meio da aplicação de um questionário de pesquisa a 359 ministros evangélicos da Igreja Presbiteriana do Brasil. Dentre os achados, os ministros demonstram-se mais inclinados ao papel de mentor - características voltadas, primeiramente, para a colaboração, e secundariamente controle e competição - e apresentaram dominância no polo cerebral emotivo/relacional -  capacidades  operacionais  de  dirigir  ações, mediante  cooperação comunitária,  tendo  aptidão  para comunicação,  envolvimento  com  pessoas, ensino  e liderança carismática.
Santas Marias, rogamos por vós: igreja evangélica pernambucana e violência de gênero
Authors: Pereira Campos Zuleica Dantas , Da Silva Jonas Euflausino
Published: May 2022

O presente trabalho apresenta uma análise do perfil religioso das mulheres vítimas de violência de gênero atendidas pelos programas de proteção em vigor no âmbito da Secretaria da Mulher do estado de Pernambuco, bem como da percepção das igrejas evangélicas a respeito deste tipo de violência. Os dados foram coletados naquele órgão da administração pública, relativos aos anos de 2017 a 2019. O estudo pretende verificar ainda a importância do discurso no espaço religioso para a implementação de políticas públicas que visem combater a violência de gênero contra as mulheres, partindo do pressuposto de que a espécie de violência em questão é caracterizada por fatores bem peculiares que estão mais próximos do espaço privado, no qual as estruturas eclesiásticas desempenham um papel eficiente na construção de sentidos e valores. Dessa forma, acreditamos que o Estado precisa enxergar o campo religioso, em especial as igrejas evangélicas, como um lugar de execução de políticas públicas de prevenção e até mesmo de intervenção contra a violência de gênero contra as mulheres.

Authors: Renders Helmut , Medeiros Flávia
Published: May 2022

Muito além de meramente testar habilidades táteis, velocidades de reação, observações de ambientes virtuais ou interações com outros jogadores e jogadoras, jogos de vídeo podem projetar caminhos por meio de enredos construídos ao redor o com a inclusão pontual de motivos, linguagens ou até rituais religiosos. Neste artigo investigamos os elementos principais do enredo do jogo de videogame God of War 4 (2018) para verificar a hipótese que se enredo se inspira num texto chamado Tabula Cebetis, criado na Antiguidade tardia, redescoberto na Renascença, e valorizado inclusive na educação até meados do século 19. Para isso comparam-se as suas estruturas, seus motivos e dinâmicas. Conclui-se que pelo número de aspectos em comum God of War 4 parece representar, no mínimo parcialmente, uma releitura do enredo da Tábula Cebetis.

At present, there are no studies on the analysis of the incidence of complications in patients with concomitant lesions of the coronary and internal carotid arteries (ICA) after combined operation of carotid endarterectomy (CE) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) against the background of type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, there is no doubt that this condition can be a predictor of cardiovascular and wound complications during in-hospital and long-term postoperative periods.

Aim. To study in-hospital and long-term outcomes of combined CABG+CE in patients with and without type 2 diabetes.

Material and methods. This multicenter retrospective study for the period from January 2015 to December 2019 included 653 patients with concomitant atherosclerotic lesions of ICA and coronary arteries, who underwent combined CE+CABG. Depending on presence of type 2 diabetes, 2 groups were formed: group 1 (n=183) — patients with type 2 diabetes; group 2 (n=471) — patients without type 2 diabetes. The duration of postoperative follow-up was 37,8±14,9 months.

Results. During hospitalization, significant differences in the incidence of death (group 1 =1,1%; group 2 =1,0%; p=0,97), myocardial infarction (MI) (group 1 =1,1%; group 2 =0,8%; p=0,76), bleeding events (group 1 =1,1%; group 2 =0,8%; p=0,76) were not detected. However, stroke (group 1 =3,8%; group 2 =0,4%; p=0,0008), sternal wound infection and mediastinitis (group 1 =3,3%; group 2 =0,2%; p=0,0006) were significantly more often developed in patients with type 2 diabetes.

In the long-term follow-up period, death (group 1 =6,6%; group 2 =1,1%; p<0,0001), MI (group 1 =4,9%; group 2 =0,8%; p=0,0008), stroke (group 1 =7,7%; group 2 =1,5%; p<0,0001), ICA restenosis (group 1 =8,8%; group 2 =1,6%; p<0,0001), repeated emergency myocardial revascularization (group 1 =7,2%; group 2 =1,5%; p=0,0002), repeated emergency cerebral revascularization (group 1 =8,8%; group 2 =1,6%; p<0,0001) were significantly more often recorded in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Kaplan-Meier curve analysis and its comparison using the log rank test revealed that the death, MI, and stroke were also significantly more often observed in patients with type 2 diabetes (p=0,0007, p=0,003, p<0,0001, respectively).

Conclusion. Patients with type 2 diabetes who are referred for combined CE+CABG are at an increased risk of stroke, sternal wound infection and mediastinitis in the in-hospital postoperative period, as well as all adverse cardiovascular events in the long-term follow-up period.

Published: May 2022

ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the lives of children and adolescents around the world. Hence, this study aimed to examine how the pandemic has impacted children and adolescents in Brazil through an ethical analysis. An interpretive analysis of Brazilian research on child and adolescent health during the pandemic was conducted. Recognizing this ethical dimension is pivotal to shedding more light on how responses to crisis situations, such as the current situation of the COVID-19 pandemic, can be shaped and where the priorities for action are according to all interested parties, situating the child between these parts of interest. Our analysis highlighted both direct and indirect effects surrounding the decision-making processes for children in the COVID-19 pandemic reality. These decisional processes must sustain the child’s right to participation to ascertain that the action taken is in the child’s best interests. Nevertheless, the Brazilian reality has shown a structural exclusion of children’s voices in decisions affecting them, particularly concerning the effects of the pandemic on their lives. Further studies must be conducted to deepen the knowledge about children’s best interests and their participation in the actions planned during the pandemic.
GROWTH AND MENTAL CRISIS AS A TOPIC IN LITERATURE FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH
Authors:   Institute of Macedonian LiteratureSs. Cyril andMethodius University in Skopje, Mojsieva-Guševa Jasmina
Published: May 2022

Childhood, as a unique period of development of each individual, in which all life experiences are experienced for the first time, leaves a deep mark on the child's psyche and because of this it is in the center of interest of many children's writers. In particular, this article is devoted to the complex processes of growing-up and maturation as seen through the perspective of authors James Matthew Barry and Jadranka Vladova in their children's novels Peter Panand “The Mirror Behind the Mirror. Through themain characters Peter Pan and Maya (whose attitude towards growth is quite a contrast) the development of the child’s soul is presented, its character formation and some of the possible problems that arise during that process.Peter Pan is a symbol for a boy who refuses to grow up because he is satisfied with his own freedom and independence, but like any other child, he longs at the same time for sincere motherly love and care. In contrast to him, in Vladova’s novel the girl Maja wants to grow up too fastin order to get rid of loneliness, as well as to gain the right of choice and a sense of security that is found in adults. Common to both characters is the premature abandonment of parental protection and care, before their maturity(with Petar because ofthe desire for freedom, while with Maja because of the unavailability of the parents). This circumstance of events leads to problems in the development of both characters. The boy Peter Pan never reaches emotional and cognitive maturity, while the girl Maya falls into dangerous delusions and fantasies from which she frees herself through socializing with her peers, when she realizes that she should not rush into life and preoccupy herself with the difficult problems of adults. Through the events described in these novels, the authors actually achieve their goal of warning aboutsome of the possible problems that arise in the process of growing up and subtly influencing the shaping of the characters of fragile children, their habits and ways of behaving and thinking.Вовед

The paper presents the mutual translation of Slovenian and Macedonian children’s poetry from the end of the Second World War to the present day. The first part of the paper presents data on book translations of Slovenian children’s poetry into Macedonian and Macedonian children’s poetry into Slovene in two stages: the first one shows translations in the period between 1945 and 1990, when Slovenia and Macedonia were part of the common state of Yugoslavia, and the second one shows translations publishedafter independence, i.e., between 1991 and 2020. The proportion of mutual translations of Slovenian and Macedonian children’spoetry comparedto translations of children’sprose and drama is also shown. In the second part, the rare book translations of Slovenian children'spoetry into Macedonian and Macedonian into Slovenian published after 2000 are analysed using a functional approach. The analysis seeks to show whether the translated text matches the illustrations, whether the form and sound of the poems are preserved, and what the transfer of the vocabulary is like. The conclusion suggests possibilities for more active interculturalmediationin this field.

The paper presents the processes of creating the portal Franček, the first interactive educational language portal with dictionary and grammatical content for Slovenian, and the preparation of language datafor the portal. The portal, whose design is original and not based on any other language portal, provides information on the words’ meanings, synonyms, morphological paradigms, pronunciation, phraseology, dialect usage, history, and etymology.This data is linked to two educational grammars and accompanied by teaching materials, a game for smart devices, a language counselling service for teachers, and a description of modern teaching methods. The main purpose of the portal is to introduce students of elementary and secondary schools to the use of various dictionaries, to improve their linguistic and metalinguistic competence, and introduce them to other language resources. The portal fills the gap in existing Slovenian language resources, namely the lack of specialized or appropriately suited comprehensive dictionary manuals, primarily intended for the schooling populationand use in education. The paper also presents the creation of new dictionary, grammatical, and teaching content, and the process of its adaptation and consolidation into a new, coherent whole. Due to the age span of target usergroups the content and its visualization are adapted to three age groups (elementary-school grades 1 to 5, grades 6 to 9, and secondary school) based ontheir (meta)linguistic knowledge, while also taking into account the curricula for teaching Slovenianin elementary and secondary school
VLADIMIR STOJŠIN –THE GENESIS OF A CROSSOVER
Authors:   Matica srpska Novi Sad, Serbia, Karanović Mirjana S.
Published: May 2022

The paper deals with thestatus of the children’s novels The Cinema in a Matchboxand The Champion Through the Windowby Vladimir Stojšin (1935– 591994) in relation to their affiliation with literature for all ages, i.e. crossover literature. Today, Stojšin is best known as a writer for children, although at the time when he published his first novel for young people, he had already published praised prose works of a very modern orientation. From the very beginning, his novels for children have been received as literature for all ages. As a writer for children, Stojšin remained largely attached to themes and motifs belongingtothe narrative worlds of his previous works. Focusing on the example of the transformation of a character of a prostitute from a novel for adults into the character of platonic love interest of the hero-narrator from thenovelsfor children, the text identifies the narrative devices by which this transformation was carried out. The conceptual apparatus of classical and postclassical narratology was used in the analysis.

A GENTLE GRADUALIST IN A CATASTROPHISTS’ WORLD: REINHOLD SEEMANN’S TECTONIC THEORY OF RIES IMPACT CRATER (GERMANY)
Authors: KÖLBL-EBERT MARTINA
Published: May 2022

The German geologist Reinhold Seemann (1888–1975), curator at the Wurttemberg natural history collections in Stuttgart, focussed most of his scientific work on the younger Tertiary north of the Alps. After 1936 he became especially interested in the Nordlinger Ries, an enigmatic geological structure in Southern Germany, which at that time was considered by most geologists to have originated through a volcanic catastrophe, but in the 1960s was to be reinterpreted as an impact crater. Seemann, however, adhered to a gradualist theory of Ries Basin genesis throughout his life, regarding the abundant broken and fragmented debris at Ries Basin as tectonic breccias, crushed by a hypothetical subterranean ‘wedge’ of rock slowly moving north, pushed by pressure built-up during alpine orogenesis and surfacing at the Ries area. As his correspondence with his younger colleague Helmut Holder shows, Seemann’s tectonic alternative was motivated strongly by his philosophical attitude preferring even wildly speculative and complex processes—as long as they acted gently and gradually—over any violent, catastrophic explanations however well-founded. His philosophy may have been influenced by his personal experience with two world wars, leading to his preference and campaigning for a gentle view of geological processes.

Published: May 2022

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the availability of resources has decreased and the risk of burnout on employees increased. Supervision is one of the resources, available for employees to learn self-care. It was necessary to find out how supervisors themselves assessed self-care strategies. The aim of this study was to explore the self-assessment of Latvian supervisors' self-care strategies. The following research questions were raised: 1) What are the indicators of the importance and attainability of supervisors’ self-care strategies? 2) What are the difference indicators of the importance and attainability of supervisors’ self-care strategies? In this study importance is an assessment of how significant and necessary a certain value is, attainability is an assessment of how attainable a certain value is. Based on the Self-Care Strategies Questionnaire, an online survey was conducted between May and October of 2021. The respondents assessed the importance and attainability of their self-care activities using a four-point Likert scale. 66 supervisors participated in the survey. For data analysis the descriptive statistics and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used. The results showed statistically significant differences between the self-assessment of importance and attainability in all strategies. The importance was rated higher than attainability. Planning of time, balance of personal and professional life, being alone and in silence, professional development, reading were the self-care strategies more often assessed higher and more often carried out by supervisors.

The article analyzes the concept of pedagogical improvisation, clarifies its content, functions and types, determinates its role in developing professional competence of students-philologists. During the research we used the following methods: observation, analysis, interviews, mathematical statistics. The aspects of preparation of future teachers-philologists for pedagogical improvisation are highlighted, and their preparedness criteria are defined. The methodological tools of research into the level of students' ability to pedagogical improvisation are selected. The relevance of the topic is confirmed by the results of the survey of the students-philologists who are diagnosed with the level of ability to pedagogical improvisation both in the conditions of the traditional form of education and in the distance learning mode. 205 students of the specialties 035 «Philology» and 014 «Secondary Education» (Ukrainian language and literature) of Vinnytsia Mykhailo Kotsiubynskyi State Pedagogical University took part in the experiment. By means of experimental activities, the features of the influence of the pedagogical improvisation on the formation of professional competence of future teachers-philologists have been identified. It was found that the level of ability to pedagogical improvisation of students-philologists in the conditions of traditional education is higher than in the conditions of excessive stay in the virtual educational space. A step-by-step algorithm of using improvisation for development of the future teachers-philologists’ professional competence in the context of blended learning is developed.
VIRTUAL LEARNING OF ELECTRONICS
Authors: Ptak Paweł
Published: May 2022

The development of computer technology has enabled the emergence of new teaching opportunities in an artificial, virtual environment. It is then possible to work with electronic systems without the possibility of physical access to them and without measuring equipment. Such teaching and work with electronic systems was possible in a laboratory with computer stations with appropriate software. Only the development of network technology, and in particular the Internet, made it possible to fully virtual work at a distance. Until now, virtual learning has only been an alternative to teaching in a real hardware lab. It was also a supplement to the work that was carried out in the course of practical teaching with students. It was only the emergence of the Covid-19 epidemic that made this type of remote work learning a necessity, but also the only alternative in the event of school closings and quarantines. The necessity of distance learning inspired the use and development of many programs and information systems for this purpose. The paper presents selected programs that can be used and are used to learn electronics at a distance while working remotely. Each of these systems has its own advantages and disadvantages and can meet specific requirements.

Published: May 2022

One of the priorities of the modern educational process is the formation and creation of an inclusive space, which includes all components of universal design and, in particular, issues of staff preparedness. Thus, the basic training of specialists in this sphere includes not only the competence of teachers and professionals of helping professions in inclusion, but also the development of established personal attitudes and judgments in accordance with the values of the modern world. Of particular importance is the development of tolerance in future teachers in all aspects of its manifestation - both in the process of learning in higher educational institutions, during the internship, and in the process of professional activity itself, in particular during communication and interaction with persons with special educational needs. The importance of this aspect in a teacher's professional profile prompted us to study this quality and determine the level of tolerant attitude of future specialists to children with special educational needs. To solve this problem, we used a number of methods that allowed us to comprehensively study the personal qualities of students in academic groups where students with special educational needs or who received experience in communicating with children with special educational needs during internship in specialized educational institutions or social welfare institutions. Thus, to analyze the qualitative aspects of tolerance (ethnic, social, personal), we used the express questionnaire “Tolerance Index” (Soldatova, Kravtsova, Khukhlaev, Shaigerova, 2002); In order to study the value and semantic component of students' tolerant attitudes we used the “Tolerance Diagnostics. Incomplete sentences” (Kuhareva, 2013); in research of the emotional-volitional component - the method “The Balanced Emotional Empathy Scale. BEES” (Mehrabian, Epstein, 2000); for the analysis of the communicative component – the test of communicative tolerance (Boyko, 2009).Besides, the listed methods and test were supplemented with the inclusive education questionnaire and the author's art-therapy techniques on the perception of persons with special educational needs and understanding of the importance of tolerant communication within professional activities. This approach in the research has allowed us to review essentially the basic educational components for the formation of professional and inclusive competences on the basis of tolerant attitude, to form and briefly outline in this scientific review our own methodological proposal for the introduction of training and other innovative forms of building interaction in academic groups.

With the emerging of apprenticeship (work-based learning form) in Lithuania, an important role is played by professional masters, who are monitoring young specialists' professional practice, form their professional skills, develop a well-oriented and skillful specialist. The main aim of this research is to analyze the development of pedagogical competencies of professional masters during work-based learning process. The qualitative research data were gathered during semi-structured interview. Twelve professional vocational masters from different Lithuanian vocational schools participated in the research. The performed thematic content analysis findings showed that the competencies of the professional vocational masters actively develop, grow, and change mainly through interaction with students in the process of work-based learning, when supervising practice masters become counselors, guardians, consultants, and inspirers. The most significant challenges include transferring subject knowledge to students, their motivation, and work with students with special needs. The results reveal that vocational practice masters need to improve their pedagogical competencies and psychological knowledge, which would help students to convey knowledge of the profession and motivate them to learn.

Aim. To examine the differences in clinical parameters in patients with coronary atherosclerosis based on fatty acid profile.

Methods.60 men with angiographically verified atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries underwent the analysis of fatty acids followed by coronary endarterectomy. Patients were divided into two groups after histological analysis of the intimamedia fragments. Men without unstable plaques in the coronary arteries were included in Group 1, whereas patients with unstable atherosclerotic plaques were included in Group 2. Blood serum levels of fatty acids were measured by highefficiency gas-liquid chromatography.

Results.The predicted probability value and the predicted group membership in men with coronary atherosclerosis were calculated using the logistic regression. The following clinical patterns in men with unstable atherosclerotic plaques included increased prevalence of myocardial infarction with the event over 10 years ago, severe angina pectoris (III and IV functional class) and chronic heart failure, in comparison with CAD patients without unstable plaques.

Conclusion. Fatty acid profile was associated with altered individual history of coronary atherosclerosis.

Authors: Shushpannikov P. A. , Tarasov R. S.
Published: May 2022

Isolated atrial septal defect is the second leading congenital heart defect after ventricular septal defect. To date, there are few studies showing the range of changes both before and after the defect closure, except single studies with limited data. Therefore, the optimal timing for the ASD closure is not clearly defined. The review presents an update on heart remodeling in children under 18 years of age after endovascular closure of atrial septal defects.

BACKGROUND: The search for genetic factors influencing the formation of the productive qualities of new breeding forms and populations of chickens is an important direction in the study of animal genomes. The knowledge gained can be in demand in projects to create modern domestic highly productive poultry lines.
AIM: To conduct a comparative analysis of the localization of homozygous regions on chicken chromosomes in representatives of four breeds from the Genetic Collection of Rare and Endangered Breeds of Chickens to identify traces of selection and search for genes associated with productive traits.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Based on the bioinformatic analysis of 42275 SNP markers identified using the Illumina Chicken 60K SNP iSelect BeadChip microchip, data were obtained on the distribution of homozygous regions of four populations of chickens at the Genetic Collection of Rare and Endangered Breeds of Chickens (VNIIGRZH, St. Petersburg): Pushkinskaya (n = 20), Cornish (n = 22), Black-and-White Australorp (n = 20), Russian White (n = 23).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: In chickens of the Pushkin breed, the observed heterozygosity was 0.372 0.004, which is higher than in other populations. According to the inbreeding index, based on the analysis of homozygous regions, the maximum level was found in Cornish chickens. For the Pushkin breed, the accumulation of homozygous regions on chromosomes 1, 2, 6, 8 was noted. The genes annotated in these loci are evidence of intensive selection.

BACKGROUND: Currently, there is an acute problem of assessing the real genetic danger and the impact of environmental pollution on human health. One of the cities that is affected by the whole complex of anthropogenic mutagenic factors is Ufa (Republic of Bashkortostan).
AIM: The aim of the study was to analyze the frequency of pathogenic mutations in the BRCA1 5382insC and BRCA2 6174delT genes in healthy residents of an industrial city.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The mutations were determined by real-time PCR using the TaqMan probe technology on the Bio-Rad CFX96 device (Bio-Rad, USA) in accordance with protocol in 379 DNA samples of healthy residents of average age (18.32 0.45 years).
RESULTS: The total mutations frequency in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes reached 4.22% (n = 16). The highest frequency of mutant alleles in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes of 6.18% (n = 11) was present in residents of the 1 observation area, where petrochemical production enterprises are concentrated. The mutant homozygous genotype of the BRCA2 gene was detected in 3.37% of cases only among residents of the 1 observation area (n = 6, p = 0.0002). The risk of formation of mutations in the BRCA2 gene is 6 times higher in residents of the 1 observation area (2 = 7.75; df 1; p = 0.006; OR 6.31; 95% CI 1.4427.67).
CONCLUSIONS: The frequency of the BRCA family genes varies depending on the studied region, the degree of environmental pollution and the studied group.

Partload regimes of all types of centrifugal pumps are strongly and unfavorably affected by an influence of an inlet recirculation. This negative phenomenon usually occurs at pump suctions, when a circumferential velocity component of the fluid flow (derived from a rotational speed of a rotor) is dominant over an axial velocity component. Such physical effect goes hand in hand with a creation of a pump-head instability, a decrease of an overall efficiency, an excessive noise and pressure pulsations and even a possible cavitation formation. The introduced technical problem was tested/examined for a radial centrifugal pump Ns375 with a volute (spiral casing) and an axial intake domain with two potential countermeasures. Both, a physical experiment and transient numerical simulations were employed and compared on crucial levels.
