RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LIVING HABITS AND METABOLIC DISEASES IN COMMUNITY POPULATIONS BASED ON ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSIS OF NAFLD
Authors: Yue Hong , Yin Lixue
Published: March 2021

ABSTRACT As a common metabolic disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common type of liver disease in western developed countries and an important liver disease in the Asia Pacific region. At present, NAFLD lacks targeted conventional therapy and its basic treatment is the correction of bad living habits. In order to verify the effectiveness of the basic treatment of NAFLD, and explore the prevention methods of NAFLD, this study used ultrasound diagnosis, baseline survey and follow-up survey, and conducted a cross-sectional study on the correlation between nighttime and midday sleep duration and NAFLD, and carried out a prospective study on the correlation between sleep duration and NAFLD. The results showed that there was a negative correlation between the length of sleep at night and the prevalence of NAFLD, while the length of midday sleep was positively correlated with the prevalence of NAFLD. The time of night sleep was an independent factor of NAFLD, and the relationship between midday sleep time and NAFLD was not statistically significant. NAFLD-susceptible people can prevent NAFLD by ensuring adequate sleep at night and reducing midday sleep. This study is expected to provide theoretical reference and data support for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD.

Authors: Li Yun , Huang Dongqin
Published: March 2021

ABSTRACT Teenagers are the future of our country, and their physical health has a great impact on the economic and social development of our country. In view of this, this study applied questionnaire survey, analytic hierarchy and situation analysis to construct the evaluation index system and hierarchical structure model of youth physical health promotion path, and used empirical analysis to analyze and deal with the key factors in the index system. The results show that the coordinates are (0.648, 0.648, 0.648, 654) located in the first quadrant, which indicates that the external opportunities and internal advantages have a high degree of matching; the effect of youth physical health management under the government mechanism is poor, but youth physical health management under the market mechanism needs to be established. The internal advantages of youth physical health management are relatively large, and the public management service market has great potential, and the market-oriented health construction. It is hoped that this study can provide certain reference for the improvement of Chinese teenagers' physical health.
THE CONSTRUCTION OF SPORTS PUBLIC SERVICE SYSTEM FOR THE ELDERLY FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF HEALTHY AGING
Authors: Sun Jie , Hu Ke
Published: March 2021

ABSTRACT With the gradual improvement of people's quality of life, the average life expectancy of our country has been extended. It is estimated that the total number of the elderly population in China will exceed 250 million by the end of 2020. Therefore, promoting healthy aging is a necessary measure to cope with the coming aging society in China, and physical exercise is an important method to keep the physical and mental health of the elderly. In order to promote the development of healthy aging in China, this study focused on the current level of public sports services for the elderly. This study uses the expert consultation method to test the rationality of the evaluation index, and uses the method of questionnaire survey to score each evaluation index, and uses the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to calculate the weight of the index. Finally, the paper takes the public sports service of the elderly in a city as an example to verify. The results show that the level of sports public service for the elderly in this city is only 77,928. Especially the two aspects of allocation of sports venues and the use of funds are the most unsatisfactory ones. It can be targeted to improve these two aspects, so as to improve the level of public sports services for the elderly. It is hoped that, through this study, we can provide some reference for improving the level of sports public service for the elderly from the perspective of healthy aging.

Authors: Ma Xiaoyi , Cui Hongcheng , Tang Keji
Published: March 2021

ABSTRACT With the rapid development of public health construction, the supply of public sports services and the demand of residents at this stage are gradually divergent. In order to solve the contradiction between the supply and demand of public sports services, this study, from the perspective of public health, combined with the current situation of demand for public sports services, used the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process to build the supply-side optimization model of public sports services, and to verify it. The results show that the weight of the model optimization index from high to low is service level > resource conditions > public degree > service content > location and type of facilities; the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation result of the model is 85 points, which shows that the index of the optimization model has good applicability. The supply-side optimization model constructed in this study is evaluated by community residents and experts in related fields, so the evaluation results are closer to the residents' demand and have high practical value. The results of this study have reference significance for the supply-side reform of public sports services, and fundamentally ensure the close relationship between the supply-side reform measures and the actual demand of residents.
EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS AND INTERVENTION RESEARCH ON COLLEGE STUDENTS’ HEALTH INFLUENCE MECHANISM FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF PUBLIC SPORTS
Authors: Yuan Mingzhu
Published: March 2021

ABSTRACT The construction of public sports does not only improve the sports performance of college students, but also improves the health level of students. At present, the achievements of public sports construction in colleges and universities are not good, and the reasons for hindering the improvement of students’ physical health are more complex. In order to explore the problems existing in the construction of public sports in colleges and universities, this study used literature survey, the Delphi method, questionnaire survey and factor analysis to analyze the health impact mechanism of college students, and carried out intervention research according to analysis results. Factor analysis was used to extract the students’ factors, school factors, parents’ factors and social factors from the 30 influencing factors in the questionnaire and, through empirical analysis, it summed up the students’ health influence mechanism, such as learning pressure, physical education curriculum, family health attention and so on. In view of the main influencing factors, the targeted intervention, including improving the students’ and parents’ awareness of physical exercise and enhancing the load of physical education curriculum in colleges and universities is designed. Before and after the intervention, students’ sprint and long-distance running tests show that students’ physical fitness has been significantly improved, and the intervention results show that targeted intervention can promote the healthy development of college students. It is expected that this study can strengthen the level of public sports construction in colleges and universities, so as to improve students’ physical quality.

Objective: The objective of the study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of cone beam computed tomography and three intraoral radiographic systems in the detection of in vitro caries lesions. Material and Methods: One hundred teeth (46 molars and 54 premolars) were evaluated, including 176 proximal surfaces and 90 occlusal surfaces, with or without dental caries lesions. Digital images of all teeth were obtained using specific intraoral radiographs, VistaScan DürrDental®phosphor-plate radiography, XIOS XG Sirona® digital sensor radiography, and CBCT I-CATTM. Observers evaluated the images for the detection of caries lesions. The teeth were clinically sectioned and stereomicroscopy served as a validation tool. The relationship of sensitivity and specificity between all systems was determined through the ROC curve using Az values. Results: The values of the area under the curve (Az) selected for the CBCT I-CATTM system were 0.89 (0.84-0.93), for conventional radiography 0.71 (0.66-0.76), digital sensor radiography 0.74 (0.70-0.78) and digital radiography with phosphor-plates 0.73 (0.69-0.77). Statistically significant differences were found between the CBCT I-CATTM system and intraoral radiographic systems (p<0.01). The sensitivity and specificity values for the CBCT I-CATTM were 0.84 and 0.93 respectively. Conclusion: CBCT has a high sensitivity and specificity compared to intraoral radiographic systems for the diagnosis of dental caries lesions in vitro.

Published: March 2021

La publicidad tiene como objetivo prioritario la persuasión y con esta finalidad emplea todos los medios que se hallan a su alcance y que toma principalmente de la retórica. En el ámbito educativo, esta comunicación estratégica debe enfocarse adecuadamente desde una perspectiva complementaria que abarca los elementos compositivos y la reflexión crítica. Teniendo en cuenta que el tema que corresponde a los textos publicitarios forma parte del currículum de Bachillerato, se analizan las estrategias y modalidades utilizadas en manuales de este nivel. A partir de las carencias constatadas en estos libros de texto, se muestra un método global centrado en el fomento de las competencias comunicativas (orales y escritas) y en la interpretación de los mecanismos de la persuasión publicitaria; y puesto que permite realizar complementarias aplicaciones, se ejemplifica con un análisis comparado desde perspectiva intercultural de anuncios de vino de España y Portugal. En suma, este método de interpretación enmarcado en la E/A fomenta necesarias estrategias de comentario del discurso retórico publicitario en un contexto en el que los estudiantes deben ser formados para desarrollar la capacidad de interpretar el mundo y de crear sus propias opiniones.

Teaching Material on Writing Fantasy Story Incorporating the Local Culture
Authors: Saputri Septyowati Lulus , Priyatni Endah Tri , Widiati Nita
Published: March 2021

Fantasy stories are imaginative texts with magical characters and backgrounds. A fantasy story about a primitive topic constantly needs some innovation to remain relevant. One of the ways to do that is by integrating local culture into the story. Local culture embodies the ideas and/or values, local views that are wise, full of wisdom, and that are embedded and followed by every member of the community. Writing a fantasy story based on local culture does not mean it loses its imaginative and magical elements. Local culture as a story idea or theme has various benefits for students, including: (1) preserving culture, (2) promoting moral values, (3) representative experience, (4) fostering empathy, (5) generating imagination and inspiration, and (6) the pleasure of reading. To include local culture content in students’ writing, a context approach can be used. The context approach assumes that while writing, the writer is actually oriented towards the purpose of writing and the reader is the target thereof. With this innovation, students can better understand, inspire, and preserve culture through learning. The novelty of this study is an analysis of local culture that can be collaborated into story ideas or themes for writing fantasy storyboards.

The L.I. Petrazhitskiy’s Psychological Theory of State
Authors:   Head of the Department of Theory and History of Law and State of the Omsk Academy of the Ministry of the Interior of the Russian Federation LL.D., Associate Professor, Gryaznova Tatyana E.
Published: March 2021

According to L.I. Petrazhitsky, the doctrine of the state should be based on the method of introspection (self-observation), as only it allows us to study the emotional and intellectual processes of the human psyche that determine individual and mass behavior of people, including their association in unrelated independent social unions, that include the state. The author considers that the main feature of the state is the presence of power, which interpreted as an emotional projection of legal emotional and intellectual experiences of individuals. According to L.I. Petrazhitsky, the means of legitimation of state power is the unity of emotional experiences of subordinate subjects that form the peoples’ legal psyche. Under the state, L.I. Petrazhitsky means the power-political organization of an unrelated social group, which is an emotional projection of solidary imperative-attributive (legal) experiences of subordinate subjects in order to serve the Law. The significance of this concept lies in the formulation of the problem of the legitimacy of state power, the interpretation of everyday consciousness as a source of external authorities that often prevent the realization and the demonstration of the rights and legitimate interests of citizens, the idea of the official nature of state power in relation to the Law.

Authors:   Senior Lecturer of the Department of Theory and History of State and Law of the Nizhny Novgorod Academy of the Ministry of the Interior of the Russian Federation PhD (Law), Sidorkin Yuriy V.
Published: March 2021

In this article, on the basis of materials preserved in the Central Archives of the Nizhny Novgorod Region, the nature of the interaction of the general and political police in the Nizhny Novgorod province is recreated, expressed in the struggle against the constantly growing revolutionary movement in the difficult socio-political situation of the early XX century. The article reveals the problems and contradictions that arise when organizing a political investigation, making inquiries and studying political attitudes in society. The role and place of the general police in the mechanism of opposition to the radical intelligentsia both in the peasant environment and in the cities is determined. An assessment of the effectiveness of the activities of county and city police departments in ensuring state order during the period of emergency laws is made. The author comes to the conclusion that the general police, having become an appendage of the political police as a result of the reform of 1880 and the aggravated internal political situation, often acted as a weak link in carrying out operational work and making inquiries, especially at the county level, thereby failing to prevent large-scale agrarian unrest.

Authors:   Associate Professor of the Department of International Law and International Relations of the Faculty of Lawof the Transbaikal State University PhD (History), Petrov Artem S.
Published: March 2021

The article analyzes the specifics of criminal law responsibility for involving minors in sexual services in the Russian Empire at the beginning of the 20th century. Gaps in the criminal legislation of the Russian Empire that existed in this area are identified. It was established that in the Russian Empire at the beginning of the twentieth century the institution of criminal law counteracted the organization of prostitution with the participation of minors and their involvement in prostitution remained limited. The legislator did not explain the concepts that were essential for the correct application of the norms. Despite the urgent need for the 1903 draft to take effect, it remained declarative. Only in 1909, the legislator was able to develop comprehensive measures of criminal law counteraction to the organization of prostitution with the participation of minors and their involvement in prostitution.

Published: March 2021

BACKGROUND: Early detection and treatment of sepsis can prevent septic shock and reduce mortality rate. Troponin can become a prognostic factor in sepsis. However, not all health facilities are equipped to assess troponin levels. Vasoactive-inotropic score (VIS) is a simpler and more accessible method to describe hemodynamic status. The aim of this study was to assess the suitability of VIS score as early prognosis and mortality predictor of sepsisMETHODS: A retrospective study was conducted to determine the correlation between VIS and troponin levels for sepsis cases in Pediatric Intensive Care Unity (PICU) Haji Adam Malik Hospital, Medan from January 2018 to December 2019. VIS score at 48 hours, maximum VIS score, pediatric logistic organ dysfunction-2 (PELOD-2) score, cardiac troponin levels at 48 hours were taken from medical records.RESULTS: There were 54 samples analyzed. VIS scores were positively correlated (p<0.001) to troponin T and troponin I levels at 48 hours (r=0.670 and r=0.606, respectively). VIS at 48 hours and maximum VIS were related to mortality (p=0.001 and p<0.001, respectively). VIS score at 48 hours could be used as a predictive factor for mortality (area under the curve (AUC): 79.7%, p<0.001) with a cut-off point at 11 (74.4% sensitivity and 80% specificity). High VIS at 48 hours indicated poor outcomes of sepsis in children with odd ratio (OR) value: 1.99 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.25-3.19).CONCLUSION: Vasoactive-inotropic score was suitable as an alternative to cardiac troponin T and troponin I levels at 48 hours to early detect myocardial dysfunctions and mortality in children.KEYWORDS: troponin, vasoactive-inotropic score, sepsis, children, mortality

Chronic focal infection is pathologically closely associated with internal pathology and is a serious factor in its aggravation. Systemic inflammatory reactions are associated with metabolic changes, such as oxidative stress, impaired regulatory participation of macro- and microelements with an imbalance in their distribution in biological media. The resulting homeostatic imbalances cannot be ignored by the attraction of chronic foci of infection, such as odontogenic sinusitis. The aim of the study was to substantiate complex approaches to the supervision of patients with chronic odontogenic sinusitis against the background of comorbid multiple chronic focal infection (MCFI). Materials and methods. In patients with chronic odontogenic sinusitis against the background of multiple chronic foci of infection, the activity of systemic inflammatory factors was studied. Levels and ratio of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines – interleukins 2, 6, 10, TNF alpha, C-reactive protein in comparison with the oxidation activity of lipids, proteins, low molecular weight thiols, assessment of Zn, Cu, Fe parameters in biological media and hepcidin in blood. In patients with chronic odontogenic sinusitis against the background of MCFI, an increase in the level of pro-inflammatory (TNF alpha, interleukin 6) was found with an imbalance in the distribution of Zn, Cu, Fe with a deficiency of these elements in the intracellular media. Expressed correlations of these changes with the activity of lipid peroxidation and free radical oxidation of thiol compounds were revealed. The data obtained serve as a rationale for the use of antioxidant and mineral replacement therapy in the complex treatment of patients with MCFI.

The aim of this work is to draw the attention of otorhinolaryngologists to the advantages of early conservative treatment of children with hypertrophy of the nasopharyngeal tonsil - adenoids. In childhood, a significant part of the protective and informational functions lies on the pharyngeal tonsil, since it is in the path of inhaled air. Unfavourable environmental conditions exacerbate its functional failure. Pathology of the lymphopharyngeal ring is highly prevalent and occupies a leading place among ENT diseases in children. Each person has a certain own microflora on the nasal mucosa from birth. In most cases, monoflora is determined on the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity, and only 2-3% is due to the combination of two types of microbial and fungal flora. For more than twenty years, we have been using the tactics of a sparing effect on the mucous membrane when using medicinal mixtures on a protective basis. Conservative treatment of 245 children aged 3 to 6 years with grade 1 – 2 adenoiditis was carried out, which made it possible to avoid surgical intervention in this group of children. When choosing a drug mixture, the sensitivity of the microflora of the patient’s nasal cavity was considered according to the results of a smear from the mucous membrane. Adenoidectomy is an operation with potentially undesirable consequences for the whole body, therefore, effective timely conservative therapy can reduce the risks and harms of surgery for pediatric patients.

O peixe coelho sapateiro Siganus sutor é um dos recursos pesqueiros mais importante das pescarias artesanais em Cabo Delgado. No entanto, a legislação pesqueira em vigor não tem qualquer regulamentação da pesca desta espécie. O estudo da abundância desta espécie é importante na medida em que permite determinar medidas de conservação visando à manutenção dos estoques pesqueiros da espécie Siganus sutor na região. O presente estudo teve como objetivo determinar abundância do Siganus sutor em Cabo Delgado. Foram utilizados dados de amostragem biológica correspondente a composição das capturas em peso e esforço de pesca aos desembarques das pescarias ao longo da província de Cabo Delgado, no período entre 2015 e 2020, disponíveis na base de dados do projeto Nosso Mar Nossa Vida (OSOL – Our Sea Our Life). As capturas (kg) e rendimentos (CPUE) foram processados da base de dados e agrupados para todas espécies por desembarque e particularmente para Siganus sutor. Teste Kruskal-Wallis foi usado para verificar se existem diferenças das capturas e dos CPUE em função dos meses. As capturas do Siganus sutor na região norte de Cabo Delgado é de cerca de 13,6% da captura total e 1,4% para região sul. A captura e CPUE não variou significativamente em função dos meses para Siganus sutor na região norte, apesar de maior quantidade numérica de capturas entre abril e agosto. Na região sul as capturas e rendimentos do Siganus sutor entre os meses foram estatisticamente diferentes, sendo maiores entre novembro e março e entre julho e agosto. Perante este cenário, para manutenção das populações desta espécie, são sugeridas medidas de gestão que garantem a manutenção desta espécie. Todavia, esta informação pode ser usada para o ordenamento da pescaria do Siganus sutor no norte de Moçambique.
Distance education as an objective necessity. On the problem of modernization of academic curriculum

Presented is definition of the notion of “distance education”. It’s advantages and disadvantages are being discussed. It is shown, that distance education is in fact a combination of full-time and part-time forms of education, and therefore leading to significant increase of academic independent activity and, as a result, students’ overwork. It is proposed to introduce into the university academic process two different curricula for each specialty. The master curriculum is designed for full-time education. The second curriculum is designed for distance learning. The master curriculum needs to be modernized by transferring all disciplines that play a supportive role or serve for general educational development into the category of optional ones. Education in the normal course according to the master curriculum involves studying both compulsory subjects and optional courses equally. In the event of force majeure circumstances, the second curriculum is introduced and only compulsory subjects remain for learning, and all optional courses are removed from the schedule. This would allow relieving the distance education student without lowering either the level or the quality of education.
