Towards an Ethics of Autopoietic Technology: Stress, Care, and Intelligence
Authors: Witkowski Olaf , Doctor Thomas , Solomonova Elizaveta , Duane Bill , Levin Michael
Published: February 2023

The relationship between humans and technology has attracted increasing attention with the advent of ever stronger models of artificial intelligence. Humans and technology are intertwined within multiple autopoietic loops of stress, care, and intelligence. This paper suggests that technology should not be seen as a mere tool serving humans’ needs, but rather as a partner in a rich relationship with humans. Our model for understanding autopoietic systems applies equally to biological, technological, and hybrid systems. Regardless of their substrates, all intelligent agents can be understood as needing to respond to a perceived mismatch between what is and what should be. We take this observation, which is evidence of intrinsic links between ontology and ethics, as the basis for proposing a stress-care-intelligence feedback loop (SCI loop for short). We note that the SCI loop provides a perspective on agency that does not require recourse to explanatorily burdensome notions of permanent and singular essences. SCI loops can be seen as individuals only by virtue of their dynamics, and are thus intrinsically integrative and transformational. We begin by considering the transition from poiesis to autopoiesis in Heidegger and the subsequent enactivist tradition. We then formulate and explain the SCI loop, and examine its implications in the light of Levin’s cognitive light cone in biology, as well as the Einstein-Minkowski light cone from special and general relativity in physics. In an acknowledgement of Maturana’s and Varela’s project, our findings are considered against the backdrop of a classic Buddhist model for the cultivation of intelligence, known as the bodhisattva. We conclude by noting that SCI loops of human and technological agency can be seen as mutually integrative by noticing the stress-transfers between them. The loop framework thus acknowledges encounters and interactions between humans and technology in a way that does not relegate one to the subservience of the other (neither in ontological nor in ethical terms), suggesting instead integration and mutual respect as the default for their engagements. Moreover, an acknowledgement of diverse, multiscale embodiments of intelligence suggests an expansive model of ethics not bound by artificial, limited criteria based on privileged composition or history of an agent. The implications for our journey into the future appear numerous.
A Novel Single Nucleotide Polymorphism of Interleukin-10 Gene is Linked to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Iraqi Patients with Toxoplasmosis(Conference Paper )#

Published: February 2023

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic disorder that is a serious health concern all over the globe, it is linked to Interleukin-10 (IL-10) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the promoter region. On the other hand, diabetes influences the cellular and humoral immunity predisposing the patient to a variety of opportunistic parasites one of them is Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), which may infect any nucleated cell, including pancreatic cells. The purpose of this research was to explore the association of IL-10 genetic polymorphisms with T2DM and latent toxoplasmosis among Iraqi patients with T2DM. Fifty-five and fifty-eight venous blood samples were taken from T2DM patients and age-matched non-diabetic persons, respectively. Sera from all samples had been tested for the presence of anti-toxoplasma antibodies using the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed by specific primers and the products were sequenced at Macrogen /Korea. A higher percentage of T. gondii infection was found in T2DM patients (52.1%) and 31.5% of non-diabetic persons. The high frequency of the SNP at position -3952 among T2DM patients, and this is a novel finding. An interesting result, an increased risk of T2DM was observed in carriers of -1082 A/G variants, which was high frequency among studied subjects. The carriers of both -1082 AG+GG and -3952 AG+GG genotypes had a synergistic effect on the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus significantly. A significant association between T2DM and polymorphisms at positions -1082 A/G and -3952 A/G of the IL-10 gene.

Published: February 2023

The study objective was to conduct Pharmacoeconomics study (cost-effective analysis) between infliximab reference (Remicade) and its biosimilar (Remsima) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Iraqi hospitals.

This is a retrospective multicenter pharmacoeconomic analysis conducted at two large teaching governmental hospitals in Baghdad, Iraq which provided infliximab to patients with RA. Data were collected from patient’s medical records and face-to-face interviews with the patients from December 2021 to April 2022.

The study included 57 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).  The patients were categorized into two groups according to the type of infliximab they received over 30 weeks: 27 patients received reference infliximab (Remicade) and 30 patients received biosimilar infliximab (Remsima). The two groups had comparable demographic and baseline disease parameters, with a mean age of 49.6 years and a BMI of 30.0. The vast majority of participants were women (82.5%) with low level of formal education (65%). Overall, both infliximab biopharmaceuticals had good effectiveness to reduce the RA disease activity (CDAI) and improve patient quality of life. They both had comparable adverse reactions including UTI, fatigue, and headache. There was no significant difference (P-value >0.05) in disease activity between the two groups according to RA clinical disease activity index (CDAI) score across all three-time measures: before biological therapy, 14 weeks post-therapy and 30 weeks post-therapy.

In 2019, Remicade was slightly more effective and provide better quality of life, but costlier ($41,896 per QALY) compared to Remsima. It was not clear whether the reference biologic (Remicade) or its biosimilar (Remsima) was more cost effective. In 2021, Remicade was more cost effective compared to Remsima because Remicade was less expensive and relatively more effective according to CDAI and EQ-5D-5L scores. Registering and purchasing both reference infliximab and its biosimilar was good idea to keep the competition in the price and maintain infliximab for RA patients.
Knowledge, Attitudes, Practices, and Online Distance Learning Experience of Malaysian University Students towards COVID-19: A Cross Sectional Study(Conference Paper )#
Authors: Mikhael Ehab Mudher , Ong Siew Chin
Published: February 2023

Some new norms need to be adapted due to COVID-19 pandemic period where people need to wear masks, wash their hands frequently, maintain social distancing, and avoid going out unless necessary. Therefore, educational institutions were closed to minimize the spread of COVID-19. As a result of this, online education was adapted to substitute face-to-face learning. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the Malaysian university students’ adaptation to the new norms, knowledge and practices toward COVID-19, besides, their attitudes toward online learning. A convenient sampling technique was used to recruit 500 Malaysian university students from January to February 2021 through social media. For data collection, all students were asked to fill in a questionnaire that was developed based on previous literature, using Google Forms. 498 students completed the questionnaire (response rate 99.6%). Malaysian Ministry of Health was the main source (83.73%) that students refer to when looking for information on COVID-19. Only 40% of the participants had good overall knowledge about COVID-19; such knowledge was influenced by the students' field of study. The current practice towards COVID-19 was good only by 26.1% of participating students; such practice was influenced by the ethnic groups. Additionally, 60% of participated students agreed that COVID-19 can be successfully controlled. About one-third of participants had positive attitudes toward online learning. The major challenges facing students during online learning include distraction of the learning environment (80%), unstable internet connectivity (75%), lack of motivation (70%), limited technical skills (41%), and limited broadband data (34%). In conclusion, the knowledge and practice toward COVID-19 was good in less than half of Malaysian university students. Attitudes to the controlling of COVID-19 were positive, while the attitudes toward online learning were neutral among most of the Malaysian university students. Challenges toward online learning are diverse and include both technical and student-related problems.

Authors: Alabdly Ammar , J. Kassab Hanan
Published: February 2023

Nefopam (N.F.) HCl is a non-narcotic centrally-acting, non-opioid benzoxazocine analgesic to relieve acute and chronic pain. It exhibits low bioavailability (about 36%) due to its first-pass degradation in the liver.

Intranasal administration has been used as a new route for targeting active brain sites and enhancing the bioavailability of N.F. HCl bypassing hepatic metabolism.

In situ gel of N.F. HCl was prepared by the cold method using different concentrations of Poloxamer 407, Poloxamer 188, HPMC K4M, Carbapol 934, and Hyaluronic acid polymers.

The results show that identification tests are superimposed with references, solubility study shows that N.F. HCl is suitable to be administered intranasally; Compatibility studies reveal incompatibility of Nefopam HCl with HPMC K4M and Carbapol 934; meanwhile, no interaction with Methylcellulose and Hyaluronic acid.

In conclusion, the obtained results revealed the incredible ability of the produced N.F. HCl intranasal in situ gel is intended to enhance drug bioavailability bypassing the metabolizing effect of the liver that N.F. HCl is facing when given orally.
Evaluation of Antileishmanial Activity of Osteospermum ecklonis Extract of Aerial Parts against Leishmania donovani: in vitro(Conference Paper) #
Authors: Jewely Hind Mohammed , Thukaa Zuhair
Published: February 2023

Abstract

 

Lack of safe available non-resistant treatment for visceral leishmaniasis (Kala-azar) keeps limiting the complete cure of this disease ,drugs that have  toxic side effects or lack of effectiveness  have led to disease relapse ,all these factors have lightened  the way to the search for imperative drugs from natural resources that have been shown to have antileishmanial activity through literature survey

. In the present study, the comparative in vitro anti-leishmania activity of various fractions of Osteospermum ecklonis aerial parts fractions have been evaluated. Extracts were prepared through maceration and Soxhlet apparatus using 85% methanol and fractionation was done by separating the active constituents according to the differences in their polarities using petroleum ether and n-butanol respectively. The resultant fractions( petroleum ether as well as n-butanol fractions )were chosen for effective inhibition of Leishmania donovani, The results prove with no doubt that the petroleum ether fraction of the maceration aerial parts in a concentration of 2.5 mg/ml had better antileishmanial activity than other concentrations of tested samples and the result coincided with the anti-leishmaniasis activity of official treatment (pentostam®) ,This finding  can be attributed to the terpene nature of the materials used to be existed in such fraction. This observation have paved the road to step in for extended studies in relation to the conventional herbal medicines for better and safe alternatives to available synthetic chemical drugs.
Modified models of a free boson string and their solutions
Authors: Shanina Z.K. , Razina O.V.
Published: February 2023

In this paper we consider the modified models of a free boson string and examine their dynamics. Modified models of the boson string are investigated from the point of view of the second order formalism (the Polyakov action). The motion of the free string propagates in Minkowski space-time. The internal geometry of the free boson string is described by the metric hαβ having the signature of Minkowski. The classical string trajectory is described by the function Xμ. The introduction of the function K and the potential V(Xμ) into the action of the boson string allows us to find new approaches to solving the problem of the boson string dynamics. For these modified models of the boson string the equations of motion are found. The equations of motion are obtained by varying the action with respect to Xμ. The energy-momentum tensor for considered models of the free boson string is calculated. Constraint conditions are obtained for all types of modified boson string models. It is proved that constraint conditions are satisfied for each considered modified model of the boson string. Solutions of the equations of motion for each modified boson string model are also considered and obtained. String’s world sheet has been built for these solutions. It is shown that all solutions for these models satisfy the equations of motion and the constraint conditions.
Gravitational waves in Newton’s gravitation and criticism of gravitational waves resulting from the General Theory of Relativity (LIGO)
Authors: Szostek R. , Góralski P. , Szostek K.
Published: February 2023

The most important conclusion from this article is that from the General Theory of Relativity do not result any gravitational waves, but just ordinary modulation of the gravitational field intensities caused by rotating of bodies. If the LIGO team has measured anything, it is only this modulation, rather than the gravitational wave understood as the carrier of gravity. This discussion shows that using too complicated mathematics in physics leads to erroneous interpretation of results (in this case, perhaps the tensor analysis is guilty). Formally, various things can be calculated, but without knowing what such analysis means, they can be attributedmisinterpreted. Since the modulation of gravitational field intensities has been called a gravitational wave in contemporary physics, we have also done so, although it is misleading. In the article it was shown, that from the Newton’s law of gravitation resulted an existence of gravitational waves very similar to these, which result from the General Theory of Relativity (GTR). The article shows differences between the course of gravitational waves that result from Newton’s gravitation, and the course of gravitational waves that result from the General Theory of Relativity, which measurement was announced by the LIGO (Laser InterferometerGravitational-Wave Observatory) [1–3]. According to both theories, gravitational waves are cyclical changes of the gravitational field intensities. The article proposes a method of testing a laser interferometer for gravitational wave measurement used in the LIGO Observatory. Criticism of results published by the LIGO team was also presented.
Production of coal briquettes using the original binder
Authors: Mustafin E.S. , Omarov Kh.B. , Shaimerdenova K.M. , Omerkulov A.T.
Published: February 2023

In this paper the authors consider a new genuine binder that makes it possible to produce coal briquets with desired consumer properties, i.e. reduced bitumen consumption, low production process temperatures and high moisture resistance. To make coal briquets, a batch mixture was prepared (coal fines, slack, riddlings)and then mixed in a mixer with a genuine emulsified bitum in a ratio of 20 to 1 by weight, after which the mixture was fed into molds and taken to a pressing machine. The resulting briquets were dried at a temperature of 30–40 ºC for 12 hours. The results of their tests displayed a compressiion strength of60–70 kg/cm2; when dropped from a height of one meter, the residue on the sieve +25 mm after sieving was 96–98 % (high strength). In addition, the briquets showed good resistance to moisture (low moisture capacity not more than 2–3 %) — water sprinkling did not loose the briquettes; there was no destruction even when doused into water. In the process of burning the briquets did not disintegrate, the flame was uniform in all directions. Calorific capacity tests of the produced briquets were made. Due to the improved commercial quality offered by briquees, after scoping calculations the saving of coal fuel was presupposed.

Published: February 2023

Indonesia's airspace is a sovereign area with strategic value because it is utilized for various functions and dimensions of interest. As an inseparable part of the land, sea, and under the earth space, the air space should be arranged for security, safety, service and prosperity. However, the absence of a law that underlies the management of air space, makes the interests of using air space overlap, not properly synchronized, and it seems that there is a lack of collaboration. This study uses a qualitative approach with content analysis methods, to discuss theories, analyze policies and analyze expert opinions on the vacuum of airspace management policies in Indonesia, to then draw conclusions and recommendations. It is hoped that this study will be of use to efforts to formulate a very strategic and needed national airspace management policy.

Published: February 2023

The incident of the suicide bombing in front of the Makassar Cathedral Church and the attack on the National Police Headquarters became news topics that attracted media attention. Each media has a policy in the interpretation scheme to fight for meaning according to the media's point of view. This study aims to explore the meaning and framing of radicalism, jihad and terrorism in the suicide bombing in front of the Makassar Cathedral Church and the attack on the National Police Headquarters. A qualitative method with a semantic analysis approach is used to determine the meaning, and a thematic approach in viewing the framing of the formation of radical concepts, jihad and terrorism. The results showed that Islamic online media in providing meaning and framing did not conceptually and specifically discuss radicalism, jihad and terrorism. However, they view it as a stigma and a label used in an effort to corner and marginalize Islamic groups. The implications of this research can be used as evaluation material for related parties in overcoming the spread of radicalism, jihad and terrorism.

Published: February 2023

The purpose of the study was to analyze the form of village headwoman communication media in socializing the control of illegal buildings (bangli) in the city of Bekasi. Forms of communication media used by women headmen are direct communication and indirect communication. Forms of direct communication media such as socialization, meetings, recitation, cadres, sharing, telling stories, chatting together, community forums, gathering in the field, dawn around and indirect forms of communication media are utilizing media including SMS, letters, leaflets, telephones, invitations and WhatsApp . The study was conducted in Bekasi City during August-October 2018. The study used a qualitative approach. The data analysis technique used NVivo 12. The results showed that the form of communication of Women headmen was situational. WhatsApp is the communication medium most frequently used by  Women headmen to communicate with their citizens. This is due to the activities of the women headmen so dense that the information conveyed arrived in seconds and was cheap. WhatsApp supports the women headman in controlling the residents' living environment and is not limited by space and time. WhatsApp is a media that is considered to be very fast in helping village women to convey information and solve problems faced by residents so that it can be handled directly even though the female village head is not in the location. As many illegal buildings that stand on public facilities interfere with environmental security. To carry out environmental control, the female head of the village does not have to visit all regions, but can share information and tasks with RT, RW, community leaders and community organizations using WhatsApp.
Peran Stabilitas Ketahanan Pangan sebagai Salah Satu Bentuk Tolak Ukur Keamanan di Masyarakat Pada Masa Pandemi Covid -19

Ketahanan Pangan atau food security merupakan hal yang sangat penting dalam kehidupan masyarakat. Ketahanan pangan yang baik akan membawa kepada kehidupan tatanan masyarakat yang baik pula. Pada masa pandemi COVID- 19  negara Indonesia mengalami keterpurukan  diberbagai bidang, yang mengakibatkan pertumbuhan  perekonomian Indonesia mengalami penurunan yang cukup signifikan. Stabilitas ketahanan pangan dengan adanya  penularan wabah virus COVID-19  mengalami hambatan dan gangguan , yang dimulai dari terhambatnya produksi pangan, distribusi dan trasnportasi produksi , termasuk alat-alat penunjang produksi  yang mengakibatkan kesediaan akan pangan mengalami kendala yang serius. Pemerintah Indonesia dalam menangani wabah pandemi ini telah mengeluarkan regulasi atau kebijakan guna menekan penyebaran virus COVID-19 ini dengan mengeluarkan Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar, akan tetapi dampak  atau efek yang ditimbulkannya adalah banyaknya bidang Industri yang akhirnya menutup usahanya, baik itu dari sektor perhotelan, restoran atau pariwisata  ,serta mall atau ritel yang pada akhirnya berdampak pada pengurangan tenaga kerja dan perginya  pelaku industri. Tolak ukur ketahanan pangan sangat tergantung pada lingkungan sekitarnya baik itu faktor domestik nasional   maupun internasional.  Apabila kedua lingkungan tersebut memberikan efek yang baik tentunya ketahanan pangan akan tercapai dengan baik. Begitu pula sebaliknya apabila lingkumgan tersebut tidak baik, maka yang akan timbul adalah masalah pangan dan lain-lain yang melingkupinya, termasuk juga akan kecukupan pangan. Ketahanan pangan yang buruk , terutama pada ketahanan pangan keluarga miskin adalah munculnya tindakan negative  seperti kriminilatas dan sejenisnya . Pemerintah dalam menghadapi permasalahan ini telah mengeluarkan kebijakan yang cepat dengan melakukan program pemulihan dan tranformasi ekonomi denga dikeluarkannya Peraturan Presiiden  Nomor 82 Tahun 2020  Tentang Komite Penaganan Corona Virus (COVID -19) dan Pemulihan Ekonomi Nasional yang tujuannya diharapkan memulihkan  kondisi perekonomian yang ada guna mencapai pertumbuhan ekonomi yang stabil dan merata di semua lini kehidupan masyarakat.

Transformation of Urban–Rural Relationships in the Context of Global Challenges
Authors: Motta Paolo , Jaime Cintia , Escobar Federico Salmeron
Published: February 2023

This article updates and further develops the reflections of “Urbanization and Sustainability after the COVID-19 Pandemic” (Motta 2020). It is now even more urgent to focus on the urban–rural relationships that are being modified by the pandemic, climate change, and the impacts of conflicts, causing serious human insecurities and increasing precarious circumstances worldwide. The fast-changing situation and recurrent emergencies confirm the need for a new urban development approach, related to the specificities of the surrounding environment and based on the revival of towns and settlements spread over territories. This should function as a complementary tool to mitigate urbanization flows and urban–rural gaps, identifying new relationships. This requires the review of current urban paradigms, which are no longer able to respond to modified conditions and demands with an innovative vision. This is actualized on the basis of the principles of the social quality theory (SQT) and approach (SQA) and their emphasis on processes in and between the four relevant dimensions of societal life. In the past decade, these principles have been developed tentatively in working papers about sustainability and urban issues from a social quality perspective.
Explorations of Contemporary Age Discrimination

Published: February 2023

Age, due among other causes to demographic transitions, has become a common and widespread content of discrimination. It concerns all age groups in all countries. Numerous analyses of regional and international institutions, including departments of the United Nations, demonstrate various determinants of age discrimination (“ageism”) implicit in contemporary societies. This article explores issues of discrimination, in particular age discrimination. These topics are conceived as complex multidimensional societal problematiques that require comprehensive approaches to understand, prevent, and combat them. In our article, the available literature concerning age discrimination is explored. Albania, Great Britain, Norway, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, and Lithuania are deployed as cases of “rules of law” related to ageism. Some practical legal cases are analyzed to explore the impacts of practices of legal politics on discriminatory situations concerning individuals. Finally, recent studies carried out in the context of the social quality approach are used to broaden our scope.

Purpose: to determine effects of grain-fodder and vegetable crop rotation on the agrophysical properties of chernozems irrigated with low-mineralized water, in comparison with the non-irrigated counterpart. Materials and methods. The studies were carried out in Neklinovsky district Rostov region on ordinary chernozems in grain-fodder crop rotations, non-irrigated (without irrigation) and irrigated with annual irrigation rates of 1500–2500 cubic m/ha and in vegetable crop rotation with annual irrigation rates of 3000–4000 cubic m/ha. The source of irrigation is the Miussky estuary with low-mineralized water. Soil samples were taken in autumn after crop rotations, their granulometric texture, aggregate water stability and humus were determined. In profile pits - the soil bulk density. The selection of soil samples, their analysis and evaluation were carried out according to generally accepted methods. Results. The deterioration of water-physical properties was most clearly manifested during long-term irrigation with low-mineralized water on a plot with vegetable crop rotations, where irrigation rates were more than 3500 cubic m/ha. The arable land of such chernozem is highly compacted (1.41 t/cubic m), the bulk density 40 cm deeper is 1.45–1.47 t/cubic m. By granulometric texture, the upper soil layers acquired the properties of medium loamy soils due to the leaching of clay particles. There are practically no water-stable aggregates along the soil profile (about 10 %). Soil porosity deteriorated to excessively low values. Conclusions. Studies have shown that the higher the water load in crop rotations, the more the negative agrophysical properties of chernozems progress, especially when irrigated with low-mineralized waters.

Purpose: to reveal the patterns of spatial differentiation of irrigation land use with the help of an integral assessment of geo-irrigation situation and the level of use of the Altai irrigated lands. Materials and methods. The study was conducted by aggregation of the rating of key indicators of agricultural land use with the determination of the Irrigation Land Use Index (ILUI) based on a system approach. The database for calculations was formed on the basis of information from federal and regional institutions of the Russian Federation, the portal of the All-Russian Scientific Research Institute for Irrigation and Farming Water Supply Systems “Rainbow”, as well as administrations and enterprises of the Altai municipal districts. Results. Four types of irrigation land use with ILUI index from 0.640 to 17.373 have been identified, varying in the level of irrigated land use and the degree of favorable combination of geo-irrigation parameters. A comparative analysis of the identified types structure with the specifics of the functioning of the regional system of agricultural land use for 31 districts of the Altai Territory and the Republic of Altai showed that the most favorable geo-irrigation situation and the highest level of irrigated land use (ILUI over 5.600) are typical for suburban areas with potato and vegetable specialization of land use and areas in which high values of livestock are observed in combination with a high moisture deficit during the growing season, and agricultural land use is characterized by a lack of natural fodder land and a high share of fodder crops in the crop acres. Conclusions: aggregation of the ILUI evaluation index with the rating of agricultural land use indicators is an effective tool of strategic decision support for implementation of the regional policy of sustainable intensification of irrigated lands.

Purpose: to study the impact of various irrigation technologies and the mineral fertilizers application on winter wheat productivity for years with different climatic conditions and to study changes in climatic indicators of the Central irrigated zone Rostov region for the period 2012–2021. Materials and methods. Field research in 2019–2021 were carried out in Bagaevsky district Rostov region on irrigated lands. In the experiment, three options for irrigation technology and three options for the technology of mineral nutrition of winter wheat were studied. According to soil texture of the experimental plot throughout the profile, they are represented mainly by heavy loams. The humus content in the arable layer (0.3 m) is 3.7 %. The climate of the study area is characterized as arid. In the course of the research, the moisture deposits in the soil layer of 0–100 cm were determined by the phases of winter wheat vegetation, the leaf area duration was taken into account, and the winter wheat yield was carried out according to the experimental options. Results. The use of precision irrigation technology made it possible to ensure moisture reserves in the heading phase at the level of 102.4–110.4 mm. Precision irrigation technology without and with the use of various technologies for applying mineral fertilizers ensured maximum yields of up to 4.83–8.69 t/ha. Conclusions. The advantage of precision irrigation technology and the application of mineral fertilizers, which ensures the greatest growth of the leaf area duration of winter wheat and contributes to obtaining maximum yields, even under conditions of scarcity of available water resources during the critical period of winter wheat vegetation, has been determined.

Purpose: to assess the dynamics of the irrigation quality of irrigation water from the main canal and drainage wastewater (DWW) from the outlet collectors using the example of the Nizhne-Don irrigation system (NDIS) to justify the sustainability of their environmental safety. Materials and methods. The objects of the study were DWW from the TsS, K-3, LS-2 and MKL-7 collectors, water from the Tsimlyansk reservoir supplied to the Nizhne-Don main canal (NDMC). The subject of the study was the hydrochemical indicators of the DWW in 1972 and 2019–2021, and the comparative irrigation characteristics of the waters. Results. Comparison of water irrigation characteristics from NDMC in 1972 and 2019 showed an increase in sulfate salinity by about 35 %. The irrigation coefficient according to H. Stebler (Ka) has decreased from 43.24 to 28.15 since 1972, while the irrigation water quality from NDMC remains good (Ka > 18). In 1972, the average value of the irrigation coefficient (Ka) of DWW during the irrigation period in the K-3 collector was 2.98, in LS-2 – 4.14, in TsS – 5.54, in MKL-7 – 22.96. In 2019–2021 – 10.44; 14.85; 12.62; 11.61 respectively. Conclusions. The irrigation quality of the Don irrigation water from the NDMC has now deteriorated compared to 1972 by 1.54 times. Over the fifty-year period of operation of the NDIS, the irrigation quality of the DWW in the collectors K-3, LS-2 and TsS increased by 2–3.5 times. Irrigation water quality in the MKL-7 collector decreased by 2 times. It has been proven that the use of fresh irrigation water for irrigation contributes to a sustainable increase in the environmental safety of DWW. The need to reuse DWW for irrigation should be decided at the regional level based on the economic feasibility of the cost of cleaning and transporting water to the irrigation system.

В сучасних умовах війни в Україні для забезпечення можливостей соціально-економічного розвитку кожного окремого регіону та країни, в цілому, важливе значення має максимальне використання транспортного потенціалу. Особливо важливого значення набуває можливість вітчизняного транспорту забезпечувати перевезення вантажів та пасажирів по території країни та за її межі. Збір та систематизація інформації стосовно потенційних можливостей транспортної системи регіонів України необхідні для стабілізації системи перевезень в умовах надзвичайних ситуацій. Коли на території одних регіонів ідуть активні бойові дії, необхідно вміло використовувати транспортний потенціал інших регіонів для забезпечення потреб усієї держави.

Метою написання статті є процес геопросторового моделювання та формування методичних підходів до рейтингової оцінки регіонального транспортного потенціалу.

Запропоновані методичні підходи базуються на визначенні транспортного потенціалу регіону через всі можливості даного регіону, які охоплюють різні ресурси (матеріальні, людські, інвестиційні), в тому числі природно-географічні, що використовують для здійснення перевезень, тобто для отримання результатів виробництва транспортної системи.

Рейтингова оцінка транспортного потенціалу регіонів здійснюється на підставі рейтингування регіонів за окремими групами показників: ресурсне забезпечення (матеріальні, людські та інвестиційні ресурси); природньо-географічні характеристики (площа регіону, наближеність до столиці України, наявність або відсутність кордонів з державами сусідами та виходів до моря); результати виробництва (обсяг реалізованої продукції (товарів, послуг) підприємств транспортної системи). Окремі групи показників в рейтинговій оцінці транспортного потенціалу регіонів запропоновано поєднувати із врахуванням їх вагових коефіцієнтів, що визначаються на підставі розподілу рівня важливості між результуючими показниками та ресурсним забезпечення у сфері функціонування транспортної системи регіону. Запропоновані методичні підходи та визначені рейтингові оцінки транспортного потенціалу регіонів України дають можливість структурувати за окремими регіонами ресурси національної транспортної системи в контексті інфраструктурного забезпечення національної виробничої сфери.

A través de un diseño A-B se analizó la persistencia del hábito de fumar de 62 estudiantes universitarios que voluntariamente aceptaron disminuir su consumo de cigarrillo con uno de 4 posibles procedimientos: coste de respuesta, cigarrillo electrónico, parches de nicotina y la combinación de todas las anteriores opciones. Se tomaron pruebas de cooximetría, se aplicó el QSU-Brief, el test de Fagerström, el cuestionario de hábitos de consumo antes y después de cada una de las fases. Siete participantes completaron el proceso; se observaron mayores reducciones del craving negativo, dependencia y CO2 para aquellos participantes que usaron el cigarrillo electrónico.
Correlatos neuroanatómicos y el déficit lingüístico en la enfermedad de alzheimer: diagnóstico temprano
Authors: Vélez Valle Alina , Luna Cortés Alma Delia
Published: February 2023

La enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA) es la causa más común de demencia neurodegenerativa; conlleva la pérdida neuronal irreversible y deterioro progresivo de las funciones cognitivas. Los criterios actuales para su diagnóstico presentan el inconveniente de que, cuando se cumplen, ya se ha desarrollado una demencia, por lo que es tarde para que se modifique el curso de la enfermedad mediante una intervención. Este trabajo se ha dado a la tarea de revisar estudios sobre las correlaciones hechas de las áreas cerebrales tempranamente afectadas (hipocampo, corteza entorrinal, neocorteza) y aquellas pruebas neuropsicológicas que detecten cambios cognitivos, especialmente lingüísticos, en la EA prodrómica. Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica de los últimos 15 años.
