Self-medication is often seen as a solution for the immediate relief of symptoms, however, bringing serious consequences to consumer's health and serious public health problems in Brazil and the world. Still, regarding self-medication, the conduct of University students in the health area is observed, since the habit in this group is high. Given these facts and the need for epidemiological and toxicological evidence on self-medication of this school group, this study aims to verify the prevalence of self-medication in Biomedicine Degree students of the Universidade Brasil. It is a cross-sectional study conducted with 63 scholars from the first three graduation years of the Biomedicine degree at the Universidade Brasil, in Fernandópolis, São Paulo. A validated questionnaire with social and medication consumption variables was applied, followed by statistical analysis by the Mann-Whitney test. As a result, self-medication was considered an option for 59 of the participants, most of them juniors, female, aged between 18 and 20, with no previous college degree, with medical insurance and aware of possible health risks, even after access to classes or online surveys. The clinical condition preceding self-medication included mainly headache, myalgia, fever, and allergies. There was a preference for anthelmintic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antipyretic medication, mainly antibiotics, and central nervous system stimulants. The habit of self-medication increases, gradually, during the graduation period, therefore is suggested the implementation of an educational campaign in the Biomedicine course curriculum to undo this cycle of chemical substance consumption.

An analysis is presented of the mechanism of investment and tax policy formation in the resource region, whereby the government provides tax incentives and supports the investor in infrastructure development and, to some extent, in the implementation of mandatory environmental measures. The analysis builds on the bilevel Boolean programming problems. The actual data and dimensions of the model test site capture the specificity of the modeled object and make possible a practical study of the properties of equilibrium solutions. The simulation results indicate the need to take into account the complementarity of investment and tax policies in the strategic planning process. In general, to stimulate private investment, the state should use a full set of tools — to build infrastructure, implement part of the necessary environmental protection measures and provide certain commodity projects with tax incentives of a certain level. The methodology for the formation of such a policy should be based on an analysis of investors’ proposals, general plans for the development of the territory and a search for a compromise of the interests of the budget, population and private investor. The field of application of the research results is the development of a scenario for the development of local natural resources, including infrastructure development plans and investment proposal packages containing rules for granting tax incentives.

The purpose of this study is to identify relationships between changes in ratings and the impact of credit cycles on them. The following methodology was used: we built up an applied statistical probit-model of multiple-choice to determine ratings changes. Our model includes a credit gap indicator for assessing the impact of the credit cycle. Our empirical research also includes a review of the time changes in the ratings during a ten-year period for developed and developing countries. The results of our study show that credit ratings are not only affected by cyclical changes within the credit cycle, but also are delayed in its relation to the cycle. From a practical point of view, these results indicate the practical need to take into account various macroeconomic factors because of the impact of credit cycles for forecasting and risk management in financial markets. During the changes of credit cycles, the rating agencies consider the shifts in macrostructure and in valuation of parameters accordingly to the distribution and ratings proportion for investment and speculative ratings classes. The level of credit ratings and credit gap indicator are strongly influenced by two macroeconomic factors: GDP growth rates and credit spread, the last impact factor relates to the mechanism of monetary policy (as a narrow lending channel). In the end of the credit cycle and the stage of recession (downturn), which is marked by empirical evidence, large number of speculative credit ratings occur and the credit spread begins increase which leads to the rise of negative effects in financial markets.

Published: January 2021

The government provides stimulus in order to accelerate village-potential development through planned programs. However, development programs could not meet the target due to inability to maintain the diversity of current potentials. This study aimed to create village clusters in the Bandung Regency area based on village potentials and plan strategies to develop villages based on their clusters. The research used a mixed method approach (quantitative and qualitative). The sampling technique used non-probability sampling, namely saturated sampling. Data collected using secondary data from BPS, interview, and documentation. The data analyzed used cluster analysis with Two Step Clusters technique. The result was that villages in the Bandung Regency were categorized into five clusters. These clusters were based on demographic, geographic characteristics, and availability of public facilities, i.e. school, health, religious, market, bank/cooperation, leisure center, and tourism object. In addition, development strategy for the first cluster was promoting participative development plans. Second cluster needed development plans that strengthened human resource capacity, social capital, and public services. Finally, the third, fourth and fifth clusters had a similar strategy which focused on building financial, tourism, and leisure sectors to create more business areas.
CORPUS LINGUISTICS AND LANGUAGE RESOURCES: POTENTIAL, STATE OF PLAY AND PERSPECTIVES IN CONTEMPORARY MONTENEGRIN LINGUISTICS
Authors: Božović Petar
Published: January 2021

The advancement of technology has triggered fast development of the methods of corpus linguistics and electronic language resources which are an indispensable tool and resource for a modern description of language as they enable empirical analysis of large amounts of data and provide a broader and more objective view on the language than it has ever been possible to have before. After a brief discussion of the typology of language corpora as well as the potential and basic methodological aspects of corpus construction, this paper gives an overview of the current situation with digital language resources for the Montenegrin standard language. Furthermore, it discusses the process of compilation, content and distribution of the first morphosynctatically annotated corpus of the Montenegrin language, Opus-MontenegrinSubs 1.0, which was mounted on two platforms: clarin.si and Sketch Engine. This is the first resource of this kind for the Montenegrin language that has officially been made available to scholars. The paper also stresses the need for further affirmation of corpus-based methodology in Montenegrin linguistics and development of electronic language resources. Furthermore, the paper emphasizes the necessity of networking of researchers in
Montenegro with the aim of making publicly available the resources developed
within individual research projects.
MERGING SOCIAL CRITICISM WITH IRISH CULTURAL HERITAGE IN THE SHORT STORY COLLECTION THE UNTILLED FIELD BY GEORGE MOORE
Authors: Radmilo Derado Sanja
Published: January 2021

The paper analyses the short story collection The Untilled Field by the Irish writer George Moore (1852-1933) with the aim of establishing the subversive potential of these stories in the context of the criticism of the overpowering dogmas within the Irish society at the beginning of the 20th century. With this long neglected short story collection, George Moore reveals a darker, silenced side of Ireland, hidden from
the public discourse of the socio-political mainstream of the period. His social criticism is primarily focused on some neuralgic aspects of the Irish society of the time, namely on the dominant influence of the Irish Catholic church on the collective ethos of the nation and, subsequently, on the spiritual and moral paralysis of the Irish people as
well as on mass emigrations of the Irish to America. By pinpointing these, in his view, destructive social forces and the complex sociopolitical situation in Ireland during the formation of the modern Irish state, George Moore identifies a state of collective moral lethargy characterised by total absence of any possibility of individual affirmation through artistic agency. The importance of this short story collection, from the point of view of scientific research, lies in the foregrounding motivation behind it. In other words, in George Moore´s intention to dig deep into the relentless existence of the Irish people at one stage in the country´s history and to re-shape the well- established colonial representations which favoured falsely pastoral visions of Ireland. It was not until the second half of the 20th century that the stigma of ´un-patriotic´ and ´subversive´ was lifted from this short story collection giving it, though still limited, well-deserved attention and recognising its literary and artistic importance for Irish national culture
and for its literature.

"Temple complexes" in the religious life of the trypillia community
Authors: Zavalii Oleksandr Ivanovich
Published: January 2021

In the period 4800-3600 BC. in the eastern part of the Trypillia area arose "giant settlements" or "megasites" / "mega-settlements" (working term of modern archaeologists) with thousands of buildings. In the central parts of these living conglomerates, scientists found special buildings that were recognized as sanctuaries, sacred complexes or temples. In the late period of the Trypillia culture they disappeared. These religious buildings were built with a focus visible processes of celestial bodies and the laws of cyclic rotation of the Earth in space, and included in their internal filling usually cruciform altars, ritual utensils, troughs with graters for the preparation of ritual bread and numerous other ceremonial and religious artifacts. There were also unique finds, such as gold jewelry (an element of prestige) and a perforated clay disk with tockins to it from the space of the Nebelivka Temple. The interior and exterior walls of the Trypillia sacral centers were painted with natural colors with a predominance of red. The wood carving for decoration of elements of a skeleton of a construction was investigated also. The first Temples on the European continent show that even at that time there was a cult of architecture. In general, it is clear that such Trypillia objects of religious worship carried encoded astronomical information in symbolic form. The building itself was oriented with regard to worldsides and designed relative to visible celestial bodies. This indicates that the people of Trypillia had a fairly clear worldview, which allowed them to reach the level of understanding the structure and mechanisms of many natural cyclical processes on Earth. Trypillia cosmology united the celestial and terrestrial spheres, and the Temple was the point of contact of the earth with the visible Universe.

In his work, the author traces the existing analogies in the structure of construction of Trypillia and sacred complexes of the ancient Middle East and biblical ideas about the Tabernacle and the House of the Lord in the ancient Jews, given the fact, that the Trypillia temple building is known from 4,000 years BC. and several thousand years older than the Middle Eastern counterparts. There are also significant parallels in the construction of temples in the context of Indo-European religious heritage.

It is noted that the Temple was not only a metaphysical reflection of the annual cycle with a focus on the points of the equinoxes and solstices, but also had a higher religious function, which consisted in the combination of the terrestrial sphere with the celestial, the connection of man with the mystery of the cosmos.

Authors: Klimuk Iryna , Kliots Sofia
Published: January 2021

Abstract. The article examines the specifics of the formation of the religious identity of schoolchildren in Lutsk and identifies the main factors influencing this process.

The main approaches in defining the concept of religious identity are analyzed. The focus is on ontological, psychological, revealing the individual level of religious identity and sociological approaches, which are represented by confessional and institutional religious identity. Emphasis is placed on the use of a constructivist approach to understanding religious identity through the prism of the process of formation and its transformation.

Based on this, the structure of religious identity and its features are described, in particular, it is determined that it is formed individually for each individual and is able to change during life. The peculiarities of the formation of religious identity at a young age and the psychological preconditions of this process are highlighted.

The classification of religious identity, its division on individual and collective level is given and analyzed. The role of each of them in the formation of worldview and life principles of the individual, their influence on decision-making and the choice of a particular way of life is described in detail. The process of formation of religious identity, which consists of three levels of self-determination of the individual, is described.

Based on the analysis of narrative interviews, the indicators of each of the levels of formation of religious identity of school youth in Lutsk are clarified, the most important factors that determine the process of formation of religious identity at a young age are clarified. These include the influence of the family and the immediate environment, the phenomenon of secularization, the rapid development of science and unimpeded access to the media. The main youth tendencies regarding faith and religion are described, and how they can be replaced.

The prevalence of atheistic and agnostic views among schoolchildren, the clear popularity of the nominal Orthodox identity and the real inclusion and awareness of Greek Catholics and Protestants have been established and substantiated. The tendencies of transformation of traditional religion in accordance with modern challenges into the form of private faith of non-institutional character are determined.

Published: January 2021

Artikel ini menjelaskan tentang pandangan Joseph Schacht yang beranggapan  bahwa hadis dijadikan sebagai sumber hukum Islam kedua setelah Al-Qur`an dimulai sejak masa kekhalifahan. Joseph Schacht merupakan tokoh orientalis yang mengkaji hadis dengan nalar akademis. Ia mengkritik dan membuka celah negatif tentang keotentikan hadis dengan menggunakan teori Projecting Back dan Argumentum E-Silentio. Dengan demikian, Schacht tidak mempercayai kebenaran hadis Nabi sebagaimana yang dipercayai umat Muslim. Menurutnya, hadis merupakan ucapan dan tindakan ulama pada abad kedua dan ketiga Hijriah yang digunakan untuk kepentingan pribadi. Untuk melegitimasi perkataannya, maka mereka menyandarkan hadis tersebut kepada nabi Muhammad saw., sehingga umat Islam dapat meyakininya. Dengan menggunakan library research dan metode deskriptif analitis, artikel ini juga menghadirkan contoh aplikasi dari kedua teori tersebut ke dalam suatu hadis.

iabetic Encephalopathy Affecting Mitochondria and Axonal Transport Proteins
Authors:   Department of Physiology, School of Medicine, Iran University of Medical Science, Tehran, Iran., Eslami Gharaati Maryam
Published: January 2021

Introduction: Diabetic encephalopathy is described as any cognitive and memory impairments associated with hippocampal degenerative changes, including the neurodegenerative process and decreased number of living cells. Mitochondrial diabetes (MD) appears following activation of mutant mitochondrial DNA and is a combination of diabetes and cognitive deficit. In this research, we showed the correlation of diabetic encephalopathy, dysfunctional mitochondria, and changes in the expression of axonal transport proteins (KIF5b, Dynein). Methods: Twenty-four male Wistar rats were divided into three groups: (n=8 in each group):1. Control + saline; 2. Diabetic, and 3. Diabetic + insulin. Before starting the experiments, the animals with blood sugar lower than 150 mg/dL entered the study. Diabetes induction was carried out by Intraperitoneal (IP) Streptozotocin (STZ) administration. Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) and body weight was checked after the first week and at the end of the eighth week. Then, behavioral studies (elevated plus maze, Y-maze, and passive avoidance learning) were performed. After behavioral studies, blood samples were taken to measure serum insulin level and HgbA1c. Next, fresh hippocampal tissue was collected. Gene expression of motor proteins was assessed by real-time PCR and mitochondrial membrane potential by rhodamine123. Results: Our results showed the impairment of HgbA1c, serum insulin, FBS, and weight in the diabetic group (P<0.05). Behavioral tests revealed different degrees of impairment in diabetic rats (P<0.05). KIF5b mRNA expression increased in the hippocampus (P<0.05) with no change in dynein gene expression. These changes were associated with abnormal mitochondrial membrane potential (P<0.05). Conclusion: KIF5b mRNA up-regulation in hippocampal neurons of STZ-diabetic rats is a factor that can be involved in abnormal axonal transport and decreased MMP, leading to impairment of mitochondrial function. These manifestations showed mitochondrial dysfunction in diabetes and resulted in abnormal behavioral tests and diabetic encephalopathy.

Introduction: Ventral Tegmental Area (VTA) dopamine neurons play an important role in reward mechanisms of food intake, and VTA dopamine receptors exist on the terminal of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons and regulate Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and glutamate release. To our knowledge, no evidence indicates any role for VTA D1 dopamine receptors in regular chow intake. Methods: In this paper, different dose of SKF38393, a D1 receptor agonist, was microinjected in VTA of 18-h food deprived-conscious rats and food intake was measured. Results: Our results revealed that VTAmicroinjected SKF383993 increased regular chow intake in a dose-dependent manner. The SKF3833 stimulatory effect persisted over 2 h post-injection. The results showed that the SKF38393, at doses less than 5 μg, did not affect locomotor activities. Conclusion: VTA D1-like and/or serotonergic receptors may be involved in regulatory pathways. the current study suggests that VTA D1-like and/or serotonergic receptors not only affects food reward but is also involved in regulatory mechanisms of regular feeding.

Introduction: Absence epilepsy is a brief non-convulsive seizure associated with sudden abruptness in consciousness. Because of the unpredictable occurrence of absence seizures and the ethical issues of human investigation on the pathogenesis and drug assessment, researchers tend to study animal models. This paper aims to review the advantages and disadvantages of several animal models of nonconvulsive induced seizure. Methods: The articles that were published since 1990 were assessed. The publications that used genetic animals were analyzed, too. Besides, we reviewed possible application methods of each model, clinical types of seizures induced, purposed mechanism of epileptogenesis, their validity, and relevance to the absence epileptic patients. Results: The number of studies that used genetic models of absence epilepsy from years of 2000 was noticeably more than pharmacological models. Genetic animal models have a close correlation of electroencephalogram features and epileptic behaviors to the human condition. Conclusion: The validity of genetic models of absence epilepsy would motivate the researchers to focus on genetic modes in their studies. As there are some differences in the pathophysiology of absence epilepsy between animal models and humans, the development of new animal models is necessary to understand better the epileptogenic process and, or discover novel therapies for this disorder.

Ante el avance vertiginoso de la ciencia y la tecnología, las sociedades contemporáneas se han visto afectadas de varias maneras, así por ejemplo, se han logrado avances para mejorar el estilo de vida de las personas, pero también se han profundizado las desigualdades entre los que tienen acceso a la nueva tecnología y aquellos que no tienen acceso, además, estos últimos se han convertido en grupos vulnerables ante organizaciones con poder que hacen uso de la información personal de forma indiscriminada y sin respeto a la privacidad, ni la confidencialidad y ni la autonomía de los individuos, persiguiendo el beneficio solo de unos pocos. Se vive un nuevo colonialismo, esa dependencia irracional y desmedida que plantea varios cuestionamientos éticos, lo que se convierte en una Bioética aplicada (Bioética de intervención), como aquella que facilita el hallazgo de alternativas para apoyar a la solución de realidades como la desigualdad, la discriminación y el abuso; la Bioética de intervención, en este trabajo, se plantea como una herramienta que proteja a la sociedad del uso ilegitimo e ilegal de información por parte de las organizaciones que operan con Big data.

La presente investigación se realizó en cooperación entre la Universidad Politécnica Estatal del Carchi y la empresa TERRAFERTIL, con el objetivo de definir alternativas agropecuarias para la provincia del Carchi. Se consideró 3 rubros agropecuarios diferentes a los tradicionales, siendo estos el cultivo de cedrón (Aloysia citriodora), toronjil (Melissa officinalis), y uvilla (Physalis peruviana), todos ellos con la connotación de tener un manejo orgánico. Los cultivos de toronjil y uvilla se realizaron a campo abierto en el Centro Experimental San Francisco - UPEC, ubicado en el cantón Huaca, mientras que el cultivo de cedrón, se implantó bajo cubierta (invernadero) en el Centro Experimental Alonso Tadeo – UPEC, ubicado en la parroquia La Concepción, cantón Mira. Se consideró como variables en estudio para los cultivos de medicinales (cedrón y toronjil) la producción de biomasa bruta (hojas y ramas) y la relación beneficio/costo; para el cultivo de uvilla, se evaluó la producción y la relación beneficio/costo. Con el análisis de las variables antes mencionadas se obtuvo que el cultivo orgánico de cedrón es el que mayor rendimiento tiene con 40,69 ton.ha-¹.año-¹. Los cultivos con mayores costos de producción son el de uvilla y cedrón respectivamente, a diferencia del cultivo de toronjil que es el que más bajo costo presenta. Los cultivos de cedrón y toronjil, son los cultivos con mejor relación Beneficio/Costo (B/C) con valores de 2,78 y 2,71 respectivamente. Se puede concluir de la presente investigación que las mejores alternativas agropecuarias para la provincia del Carchi son los cultivos orgánicos de cedrón y toronjil.

Em 2011,uma observação lógica matemática foi efetuada por este autor e tem sido estudada desde então, essa lógica diz respeito que todo e qualquer número pode ser representado por um numeral sequencial de 1 a 9. Entretanto foi realizado a descoberta do que se tratava essa lógica e foi relacionado outro cálculo já existente da Sequência de Fibonacci. Dito isto, este estudo foi desenvolvido para registrar informações dessa lógica a respeito dessa descoberta Científica do Cálculo de Proporção Numeral, e a respeito da Lógica de Proporção Numeral e sua relação com outras descobertas científicas e conceitos que já foram desenvolvidos por outros matemáticos anteriormente. Com objetivo de discutir e demonstrar essas observações matemáticas que não tinham sido observadas anteriormente e proporcionar uma nova opção de cálculo mais eficiente, pois qualquer número pode ser representado pelos numerais sequenciais de 1 a 9. Assim através do cálculo e da lógica de Proporção Numeral podemos identificar isso, além de demonstrar sua aplicabilidade na matemática e na ciência atual.
