Authors: Vladimirovich Medvedev Alexander
Published: June 2021

Introduction. Modern aspects of the diagnostics and treatment of interstitial lung diseases are closely connected with the comorbidity, which is based on the study of the associations between cardiovascular diseases and interstitial lung diseases. Material and Methods. The study included 65 patients with non-specific interstitial pneumonia, 78 patients with hypersensitive pneumonitis, and 68 patients with lung sarcoidosis. Results. An association between the character of morphological alterations in the lung tissue and clinical-functional disorders was established. More expressed fibrous and interstitial alterations corresponded to more intense respiratory symptoms and more severe disturbances of ventilation and diffuse parameters of the lungs. There was a tendency in the dilation of right and left compartments of the heart in the group of patients with interstitial lung diseases associated with cardiovascular diseases.

Mortellaro’s disease affects up to 25% of Russia's cattle, which causes significant economic damage to dairy products. The indicators of the therapeutic efficacy of existing drugs vary, and obsolete agents and schemes are used for treatment. A drug was developed and tested using the technology of liposomal silver nanoparticles (Ag) for treatment of Mortellaro’s disease in dairy cows. By comparison and grouping method, the effectiveness of 5 drug samples at different stages of development of infectious and pathological processes in 5 experimental groups of cows was compared with 2 control groups: Group 1 received no treatment, Group 2 was treated with Solka Hoofgel. It was established that sample 2 of the developed preparation with Ag content of 15 ml showed 92-96% of the therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of Mortellaro’s disease, which is higher than that of the analog preparation by 25%. The drug provides the appearance of granulation tissue in the affected areas as early as the fifth day after application to the damaged surface of the interdigital space and the epithelization of the damaged areas after 7 days of treatment.

Published: June 2021

Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) is one of the most common terrestrial plant-microbe symbioses. The interest in studying AM is caused by its importance for the growth and nutrition of plants and its ecological role in preserving biological diversity. At present, 92% of plant families are known to form AM. Fungi in AM are obligate symbionts and belong to a monophyletic group – Glomeromycotina subdivision. Some researchers believe that formation of AM-symbiosis with fungi by ancient plants allowed them to inhabit land, which has led to the formation of the biosphere as we know it. AM is studied by researchers from around the world including Russia. This overview presents in brief the results of AM research in Russia during the Soviet period which did not receive international coverage due to its classified nature; the most prominent research schools and works of AM researchers are identified; main stages and lines of this research are listed, such as: distribution of AM in plant communities and different climatic zones, mycorrhiza anatomy and morphology, fungi species composition on different soils, collection of AM fungi and growing AM in vitro, physiological role of AM for agricultural plants, the impact different ecological factors have on AM fungi species composition and AM development, conditions for effective use of Am fungi to increase productivity and quality of agricultural plants as well as to perform biological recultivation of toxic soils and restore the fertility of degraded soils.

Published: June 2021

Research Funding: The “OrthoLine” research and production company has provided funding for the research study. Conflict of interest: The authors have no conflicts of interest to declare. Research Objective: to revise the “arc angle” parameter for estimating the value of spinal curvature and, if necessary, to search for another parameter or to develop another method for mathematically correct estimation of spinal deformity value. Materials and methods. The critical analysis has been performed both theoretically and experimentally. It has been demonstrated that the angle parameter is incorrect, and another estimation parameter and procedure should be developed. A method of 3D X-ray diagnostics and construction of 3D structure using two orthogonal projections of two-dimensional spine image involve several procedures. Software-based scaling and horizontal-wise image synchronization, synchronised selection of spinal arc on images and construction of a geometric image of the studied arc are performed stepwise. Software-based measurements of a number of geometric parameters on 2D images, utilised for mathematical analysis and construction of a 3D picture of geometric spine images, are made, and geometric parameters of some arcs, among which the arc plane curvature and azimuth angle are assumed to be the major ones, are found. 2D X-ray diagnostics was performed using a light-dose device AGFA DX – D 300, which allows having the images of the entire spinal column in a single shot. Results. A method for the 3D X-ray diagnostics of the pathologically deformed spine has been proposed. The relationship between the deformity value and severity and the true arc curvature and azimuth angle of the arc plane position between frontal and lateral planes of the trunk has been established. There have been developed the procedures for software-based examination of 2D orthogonal images of the trunk projections and computation of parameters of the 3D spine state along with constructing its true image. There has been created a two-parameter function, with correction factors, of spinal deformity degree based on comparative estimations of radiographic images, measured parameters, and posture of the pathologically deformed trunk, made by independent experts. Conclusion. The developed method of 3D X-ray diagnostics and analysis of radiographs eliminates critical errors of conventional method. What principally distinguishes this method is a research object, namely, a three-dimensional state of the spine rather than two-dimensional on the frontal projection, and the use of the arc curvature parameter and azimuth angle of the arc plane position instead of mathematically erroneous angle parameter – the Cobb angle. The method of (3D) X-ray diagnostics provides new beneficial properties of the 2D spondylography based on state-of the-art digital technologies.

Published: June 2021

Enormous fluctuation has been observed in energy prices in recent years. This strong volatility in energy prices implies grave inferences for Pakistan’s economy as shown by its substantial dependence on imported fuels. In Pakistan, energy prices play a critical role in inflation determination also concluded in the study at hand. The index of energy inflation was constructed, and the role of various control variables such as board money, taxes, oil prices, energy import, and GDP has been elaborated. Current study endeavors to examine the determinants of energy inflation in Pakistan by using time-series data for 1991 to 2019. Unit root was tested by utilizing ADF, furthermore, the Bound test suggested ARDL cointegration for empirical analysis. Therefore, an increase in the demand for energy in economic activities in developing countries indicates an energy demand hence implies energy inflation. The government of Pakistan must focus on the role of these factors to control inflation and to enhance the welfare in the country.

Published: June 2021

Resumo: A pandemia que assola o mundo e as vulnerabilidades que ela expôs, especialmente no setor logístico, fez grandes empresas voltarem suas análises para logísticas emergenciais. Dessa forma, desperta-se uma preocupação com a logística humanitária, que opera na precariedade da logística emergencial já que não possui a devida atenção em termos de recursos e pesquisas, especialmente nos países mais pobres. Uma logística mais flexível e responsiva se faz necessária, porém, devido à complexidade e aleatoriedade dos eventos, modelos matemáticos genéricos não se aplicam de forma eficiente. O presente trabalho busca, então, apresentar uma sequência lógica que possibilite a elaboração de uma função-objetiva a ser desenvolvida por meio da otimização, auxiliando a tomada de decisão, visando otimizar custos logísticos.

Published: June 2021

De nombreux travaux multicentriques ont permis d’évaluer le rôle des facteurs favorisants et des comorbidités dans l’asthme. L’étude des diverses manifestations fonctionnelles de l’asthme pendant le sommeil ont contribué à une meilleure compréhension physiopathologique. Il est établi que les modifications de la ventilation sont caractérisées par des anomalies ventilatoires dont la régulation est multifactorielle. La maladie asthmatique peut altérer la qualité du sommeil et générer un Syndrome d’Apnées Hypopnées Obstructives du Sommeil (SAHOS). La coexistence (fortuite ou induite par la même cause) de l’asthme et du SAHOS est assez fréquente. Le SAHOS perpétue l’inflammation systémique dans l’asthme et favorise son mauvais contrôle. L’inadéquation du contrôle de l’asthme est déterminante dans la gravité du SAHOS. Ainsi les interférences entre ces 2 affections demeurent complexes et nombreuses. Mots clés : Hypoxie, inflammation systémique, Asthme – SAHOS.
STUDENTS RESEARCH ACTIVITIES AS A BASIS OF NATURAL SCIENCE EDUCATION
Authors: Korozhneva Lyudmila
Published: June 2021

Currently, many scientists and teachers ask themselves the question: "What can be changed in the process of science education so that students become active creators of their own knowledge and actively act in the environment?" Over the past several decades of the twentieth century, the main form of organizing education in the field of natural sciences was a lesson at a school desk, the main method was the teacher's word and the main tool was a textbook.
The need to organize research activities is explained by the orientation of education towards the development of the student's personality, his cognitive and creative abilities and the acquisition of experience of independent activity in various areas of the surrounding world.

The lack of public awareness and negligence, the pandemic due to coronavirus(covid19) has brought a global crisis with its deadly spread to more than 180 countries, and about 147 million confirmed cases along with 3.11 million deaths globally as of 26th April 2021. Due to the absence of the vaccine against the covid19 the world has suffered a lot. Though scientists have developed several vaccines then also the pandemic is still out of control so therefore the only feasible option available to us is social distancing. And this notion motivated us to bring up the idea of a social distancing detector using image processing which includes a deep learning framework for automation task monitoring. The framework utilizes the YOLO v3 model object detection model to separate moving people from the background and to detect people by using bounding boxes. The basic idea of this article is to analyze the social distancing violation index rate that how many people violate the rule of social distancing in a particular interval of time.

Published: June 2021

The Microservices architectural design is widely used today which helps one to build an application as a set of services that can be developed and deployed independently. Each service is independent and gives a set of functions or features that can be individually serviced. In spite of the fact that microservices design has been advanced as the fix just for all cutting-edge application development ailments and is viewed as the replacement for API first application advancement, its execution needs undeniably more idea and practicality. In order for these independent services to work together towards a common goal, we need something that will stitch them together because they cannot work in complete isolation and need to share data and interact with one another. There are two ways to do this – microservice choreography and microservice orchestration. This paper tries to explain the difference between choreography and orchestration of microservices, and why the latter is better. We will then discuss the orchestration of microservices using an open-sourced microservices orchestrator – Conductor.

Authors: Fassari Alessia , Polistena Andrea , De Toma Giorgio , Fiori Enrico
Published: June 2021

At least 27 million men present with urogenital manifestations of genital filariasis (GF). Although there is a large burden of GF in residents in endemic regions, infection in short-term travellers and in non-endemic areas is rare. We report the case of a 75-year-old Italian man referred to our institution for a testicular discomfort. Clinical examination and ultrasound detected a mass of 40×18 mm in the scrotum without signs of varicocele, hydrocele and testicular or epididymal abnormalities. After ineffective medical treatment, the patient underwent surgical excision. Histology demonstrated filarial granuloma with thick cuticles pathognomonic of an adult worm in the testicular tunics. Surgery has a fundamental role in localized cases of GF to remove nematodes from the fibrotic nodules. The present manuscript describes a singular case of GF observed in Italy in a non-immigrant patient with evidence of remnants of an adult worm in the testicular tunics.

Authors: Stoieva Tetiana , Reshetilo Olesia , Vesilyk Natalia , Portnova Olha , Fedin Maksym , Larionov Olexandr
Published: June 2021

The aim of the study. To determine the role of genetic polymorphism in the filaggrin gene R501XAA and 2282de4AA at atopic march progression in children. Materials and methods. 111 children aged 3 to 12 years with atopic dermatitis were selected and examined. As a result of genetic testing, it was found that 51 children with atopic dermatitis had polymorphism in the filaggrin gene. These patients were included in the main group. Another 60 children without polymorphism were in the control group. The filaggrin gene polymorphism was determined by examining the buccal epithelium by Dellaporta method. Sensitization to allergens was established on the basis of the specific IgE level. The impact of the disease on the quality of life of children was performed using the CDLQI questionnaire (Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index). Results. In the course of molecular genetics research, R501X mutation was detected in 40 ((78.4 ± 5.76)%) children, 2282del4 polymorphism – in 4 ((7.8 ± 3.76)%) patients, and their combined variant R501X + 2282del4 – in 7 (13%), (7 ± 4.81)% patients. When determining the effect of filaggrin polymorphism on the clinical course of atopic dermatitis, the presence of the associative relationship was established with the following indicators: the early onset of the disease – χ2 = 33.2, mostly severe course – χ2 = 16.2, severe skin dryness – χ2 = 22.6, predominant sensitization to fungi – χ2 = 10.6 and house dust mites – χ2 = 12.2, violation of the skin microbiome – χ2 = 7.8. Conclusions. Early manifestation of atopic dermatitis in children is associated with the filaggrin protein gene polymorphism ((82.4 ± 5.33)%), which determines the risk of progression of the atopic march and the development of bronchial asthma in (38.0 ± 6.8)% of children.

Socio-economic Determinants of Maternal Healthcare Behaviour: Evidence from Pakistan
Authors: Ahmed Sadaf Munir , Hyder Asma
Published: June 2021

Maternal healthcare behaviour is a complex behavioural phenomenon. Studies refer to maternal healthcare behaviour as a determinant of individual, household and social factors such as accessibility, affordability and awareness regarding health care. Using the Pakistan Demographic and Household Survey, 2012-13, the study aims to identify the socio-economic determinants of maternal healthcare behaviour of women in Pakistan. Women’s health is a neglected area of study in Pakistan; particularly at household level thus this study will provide an insight into this sensitive area. Empirical estimation is carried out through simple econometric procedure. The econometric specifications followed in the study identify the potential variables that could influence pre and postnatal healthcare behaviour of women in Pakistan. The estimates of this analysis depict that mother’s predisposing factors such as educational level, previous fetal loss experience; spousal educational attainment and economic status are important determinants of maternal health behaviour (MHB) in Pakistan.
Academic Conversation: A Case to Exemplify the Influence of Non-Verbal Communication on Human Interaction
Authors: Khan Maryam , Zeb Sana
Published: June 2021

The present study tried to highlight the influence non-verbal communication has on human interaction; academic conversation is specified to exemplify this construct for other spheres of life. It addresses whether teachers’ non-verbal communication has an influence on students’ performance, the students’ perception regarding the non-verbal communication in academics and their respective impact were explored. Literature reflects that non-verbal communication has a significant role in human interactions; it not only elaborates but certainly clarifies the verbal message. The present study was devised to get subjective perceptions of students on board for presenting behavioural upshots serving academics. The sample of 37 Pakistani students of Quaid-i-Azam University within an age range of 19 to 24 years (M= 22.8, SD=1.77) responded to semi-structured interviews and their opinions were recorded in the form of interview transcriptions. Conventional content analysis was used for the analysis of data and categories were adjusted under two broader themes; perceived strong predictors of performance and perceived hurdles for students learning. Almost all individuals responded that non-verbal communication of teacher can be more influential than words. Findings of the study have great implications for behavioural management of people; teacher-student and other human interactions.

Authors: Farooqi Rabia , Khan Ayesha
Published: June 2021

The present study is intended to explore the impact brought about by parental demise among female adolescents. Moreover, examining the societal role, particularly the part played by the family system, after the death of a father and its effect on an adolescent’s life perception. Data was collected through in-depth interviews from 4 adolescents aged between 17-19 years, accumulated by a purposive sampling method and analyzed through interpretative phenomenological analysis. Findings demonstrated that adolescents who encountered the loss of their fathers face numerous problems impacting their emotional, cognitive, and behavioural well-being. The absence of parents brings a drastic change in an entire life affecting their mental health leading to low self-esteem, depression, anxiety as well as emotional sufferings. The major issues highlighted during the study were life disruption, financial crisis, lack of support in terms of both financial and emotional aspects from extended family. Moreover, the family system played a detrimental role in the adversities encountered. Furthermore, participants stressed that children having both parents attained support, attention, emotional bonding, and encountered fewer social, psychological, and emotional issues. They constantly grieved the parental loss and faced a lack of care, that significantly affected their well-being. These findings help in understanding the problems associated with lack of parental bonding in connection with father’s loss, whereas its long-lasting impact spread throughout one's life.

Automated Extraction of Labels from Large-Scale Historical Maps
Authors: Schlegel Inga
Published: June 2021

Abstract. Historical maps are frequently neither readable, searchable nor analyzable by machines due to lacking databases or ancillary information about their content. Identifying and annotating map labels is seen as a first step towards an automated legibility of those. This article investigates a universal and transferable methodology for the work with large-scale historical maps and their comparability to others while reducing manual intervention to a minimum. We present an end-to-end approach which increases the number of true positive identified labels by combining available text detection, recognition, and similarity measuring tools with own enhancements. The comparison of recognized historical with current street names produces a satisfactory accordance which can be used to assign their point-like representatives within a final rough georeferencing. The demonstrated workflow facilitates a spatial orientation within large-scale historical maps by enabling the establishment of relating databases. Assigning the identified labels to the geometries of related map features may contribute to machine-readable and analyzable historical maps.
User Participation in the Process of Creating a Citizen Science Portal
Authors: Divanis Andreas , Lüpke Alissa , Meng Liqiu
Published: June 2021

Abstract. Citizen science (CS) relies on cooperation with members of the public. This usually requires a lot of contact to reconcile the needs of the researchers and project staff with the user to retain an active user base. We explore with our CS web portal the potential of including the participants in the creation and design process of the portal. This is done by providing the users with easy access to our design and research staff and approaching people for qualitative feedback. To a large extent, our users do not have obvious ties to academic institutions, however, the vast majority of feedback comes from academics. We categorized the feedback, explored users’ backgrounds, and compared our active user retention to another CS project, which turns out to be comparable.
Tailoring basemaps for color vision impaired people

Published: June 2021

Abstract. Widely used basemaps are not particularly inclusive when it comes to color vision impaired users. The use of colors, even though perfect for the representation of features, does not always account for color vision impairments. Certain combinations of colors in basemaps are indistinguishable for colorblind people. With the awareness that those disabilities should be considered when designing a basemap, Esri Nederland and Kadaster instigated the research on the topic, aiming to create a methodology on how to optimize the basemaps for color vision impaired users. The methodology developed was applied in the assessment of six basemaps and improvements were performed in the two most commonly used basemaps in the Netherlands, the Esri World Topographic Map, and the BRT Achtergrondkaart Standaard. Suitable shades were selected to replace the problematic ones in the original basemaps, and the target group evaluated the improvements through surveys. The results showed that the commonly used basemaps are able to well represent the features in a colorblind-friendly way. However, there is room for improvements in order to achieve more suitable and inclusive basemaps.
Educing knowledge from text: semantic information extraction of spatial concepts and places
Authors: Papadias Evangelos , Kokla Margarita , Tomai Eleni
Published: June 2021

Abstract. A growing body of geospatial research has shifted the focus from fully structured to semistructured and unstructured content written in natural language. Natural language texts provide a wealth of knowledge about geospatial concepts, places, events, and activities that needs to be extracted and formalized to support semantic annotation, knowledge-based exploration, and semantic search. The paper presents a web-based prototype for the extraction of geospatial entities and concepts, and the subsequent semantic visualization and interactive exploration of the extraction results. A lightweight ontology anchored in natural language guides the interpretation of natural language texts and the extraction of relevant domain knowledge. The approach is applied on three heterogeneous sources which provide a wealth of spatial concepts and place names.
