EPIDEMIOLOGY AND PROGNOSTIC FACTORS IN PATIENTS WITH SUBDURAL HEMATOMA
Authors: Miljković Aleksandar , Milisavljević Filip , Bogdanović Ivan , Pajić Srbislav
Published: March 2021

SDH was first described in 1658 and in 1914 trauma was recognized as one of the causes. Acute SDH is more common in younger population while chronic is common in the elderly with the peak of incidence of 7.35/100000 per year in the age group 70-79 years. Trauma is one of the main causes of SDH although in 30-50% of patients direct trauma to the head can be omitted. Other predisposing factors include: anticoagulant therapy, epilepsy, and hypertension. The aim of the study was to determine risk factors and prognostic factors for the occurrence of SDH, also to show what age group  is most at risk for developing chronic and acute SDH. Identify the diagnostic steps in proving SDH and the best method of treatment. The study includes 267 patients treated in the period from 1.1.2019 to 31.12.2019 at the Clinic for Neurosurgery CCS. SDH was diagnosed by neurological examination and brain CT in all patients and all were treated conservatively or surgically. The analytical statistics were used parametric and non-parametric tests of difference. The study included 185 men and 82 women of middle age 68 ± 17.19 years. Most patients were between 6-8 decades. Multiple changes in  CT were observed in 63.3% of patients. Chronic SDH had 50.5% of patients and 45.6% had acute SDH. The most common symptoms were headache, psycho-organic syndrome, and hemiparesis. Patients with a GCS score of more than 8 had a better prognosis and outcome. Surgical treatment was the main course of treatment in our study. CT with / without contrast is the gold standard in detecting SDH. Men are at higher risk for the occurrence of SDH. Symptoms can occur later in the clinical presentation so we need to take caution when performing neurological examination. Factors that can lead us to suspect possible SDH are: age, gender, type of injury, clinical presentation, and time of occurrence.

Authors: Otašević Suzana , Golubović Milan
Published: March 2021

Herein, we discussed a new problem concerning diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of patients with intestinal candidosis. The lack of official attitude about significance of Candida overgrowth on intestinal mucosa as well as the absence of guidelines regarding its treatment and required diet, significantly complicate this problem in medical practice. Possible overgrowth of species Saccharomyces cerevisiae-bulardi from probiotics in intestines is a newly recognized problem in diagnostic procedures.
LATE LIVER METASTASIS 20 YEARS AFTER THE INITIAL DIAGNOSIS: A CASE REPORT OF METACHRONOUS HORMONE DEPENDENT TUMORS OF BREAST AND ENDOMETRIUM

Published: March 2021

Breast cancer is the most common cancer and a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in female population worldwide. The liver is the third most common metastatic site for invasive breast malignancy besides bones, lungs and brain. Breast cancer has been linked with metachronous bone, endometrial, colon/rectal, connective tissue (sarcoma), leukemia, lung, ovary or thyroid cancer. Studies have shown an increased risk of secondary malignancies in women treated for breast malignancy in connection to adjuvant treatment in certain cases. We present a case of a 71 year old woman who was diagnosed with breast cancer 20 years ago. The primary diagnosis was invasive lobular breast cancer localized in left lower lateral quadrant. Micromorphological, histochemical and immunohistochemical analyses rendered diagnosis inconclusive due to lack of tissue so after 4 months rebiopsy was performed. Clinico-pathological correlation of the second biopsy was in favor of liver metastasis of partially hormone dependent breast cancer. Immunohistochemistry was vital for the diagnosis on the liver biopsy, in particular GATA3 positivity and vimentin negative staining which helped us exclude endometrial cancer metastasis which was diagnosed before the initial liver biopsy. GATA 3(+)/vimentin(-) panel proved to be superior to GCDFP-15 and mammaglobin in proving the breast origin of  the secondary tumor deposit.Liver metastasis from primary breast cancer can in certain cases occur many years after the initial diagnosis which shows the importance and necessity for long term follow-up of these patients, while considering the possibility of metachronous tumors as well.
FROM GIVEN TO CONSTRUCTED HUMAN NATURE
Authors: Radovanović Biljana M. , Ružić Goran Ž.
Published: March 2021

This paper starts from the thesis that dominant conceptions of human nature correspond to the basic frame of ideas that is characteristic for the period in which it appears. This work differentiates three teachings on human nature. The first viewpoint emphasizes the immutability and determination of human nature. This conception is supported by social inequalities within a society. It appears in societies with irreconcilable social differences. The conception of a teleologically directed human life emphasized a route through which humans accomplish their nature or gain salvation. This conception is widely accepted from the Christian perspective. The third conception describes the paths of free design, construction and change of human identity. This conception appears in the modern age, dominated by the idea of creating the new. The development of such ideas is the result of technological domination and the establishment of virtual reality spaces. We dealt with certain interpretations of human nature in order to show that our understanding of ourselves is always contextually determined.
PUBLIC VIRTUES AND PRIVATE PLEASURES: HOW TV CULTURE EMERGED IN SOCIALIST YUGOSLAVIA
Authors: Erdei Ildiko
Published: March 2021

Television represented the transformative technology in the 20th century, and it has also served as a major social and cultural force for modernization after World War II, on both sides of the Iron Curtain. In socialist countries television was closely connected with future-oriented ideology, and aimed to provide the democratization of knowledge, promotion of socialist values and development of socialist citizenry. The beginning of TV broadcast in socialist Yugoslavia in 1958 gave way to the gradual development of TV culture during the sixties and seventies, the overall impact of which on the subjectivities and everyday lives of the viewers was undeniable. The aim of this paper is to briefly outline the context in which television culture in socialist Yugoslavia emerged and achieved momentum, pinpointing two periods: the penetration of TV into small places and villages during the sixties and the socio-cultural influence and ramifications of the broadcast of "Peyton Place" in the early seventies.
SOCIALIST AND EUGENIC: CZECH FAIRY-TALE FILMS AND THE NATION’S HEALTH
Authors: Shmidt Victoria
Published: March 2021

The article embeds the three most popular fairy-tale films by Vaclav Vořlíček (Girl on a Broomstick, 1971; Three Wishes for Cinderella, 1973; How to Drown Dr. Mraček or the End of Water Spirits in Bohemia, 1975) in the socialist campaigns orchestrated by the Czechoslovak government in the late 1960s and early 1970s, whose goal was to introduce women to new practices directly relating to reproductive behavior. I explore this cohort of “crazy” comedies stemming from the story of domestication of women as a historical continuity in the development of the comic female Bildungsroman, one of the mainstream genres interrogating nation-building and popular culture in the Czech lands from the second third of the nineteenth century until today. The core frame of the Czech female Bildungsroman, namely the binary opposition of “us/them” related to the Czech-German relationship, ascribing to women the risk of Otherness, and the call for their Czechinization through intercourse with Czech men, are deconstructed through infiltration by eugenic motives disseminated in the public discourse concerning the nation’s health between the 1960s and 1970s.
MUSIC ON THE SOCIALIST BULGARIAN RADIO AS A TOOL FOR ESTABLISHING THE NATIONAL (SOCIALIST) IDENTITY
Authors: Angelova Vyara
Published: March 2021

The text deals with the problems related to the Bulgarian state radio strivings during the socialism period to assist in the establishment of the national identity through the prism of the particular issue of music broadcasts. The analysis is based on archival documents consisting of minutes of the meetings of radio management, as well as relevant documents from the Bulgarian Communist Party archives. The question about the ratio of Bulgarian to foreign music on the radio not only as an element of media cultural significance but also as a national state policy arises. The presence of Western music on the radio program is studied as a result of the pressure exerted from public and state power.
WWII MONUMENTS IN YUGOSLAVIA IN THE PRINTED MEDIA: BOOKS, TOURIST GUIDES AND A STICKER ALBUM – POPULARIZATION AND PROPAGANDA
Authors: Lajbenšperger Nenad
Published: March 2021

Publications about monuments to fighters and victims of the Second World War in Yugoslavia began to appear in the late 1950s. They were dedicated to one or more monuments or memorial complexes. Over time, in tourist guides, among other sites, monuments and memorials began to be presented as a significant place worth a visit. During the second half of the 1970s, printing of special tourist guides dedicated only to monuments and memorial complexes started. Because of the popularity of monuments, a sticker album was also printed. The intention behind printing such publications was to inform citizens about monuments, but there was also an ideological side to it. Through books about monuments, the state and the Communist party wanted to emphasize again Yugoslav war efforts and the sacrifice that was made during the war. They used it as a propaganda tool in youth education, foreign diplomacy and overall state propaganda about the role of Yugoslav partisans, under the leadership of the Communist party, in the victory against fascism.
FURTHER PROBLEMATIZING THE #METOO MOVEMENT
Authors: Diaz Ana Karina
Published: March 2021

Critics of the #MeToo movement claim that it has gone too far, that not enough hierarchies of abuse have been created to distinguish between the worst kinds of behaviors and those that are problematic but not criminal. The contention is that the #MeToo movement casts too wide a net. In this paper, I make an argument to the contrary: the #MeToo movement has not gone far enough in calling out the totality of abuse women, and some men, face daily. Left outside of the sexual harassment paradigm is gender-based sexual harassment that is not imbued with sexuality but nonetheless happens because of a person’s sex. I advance two related claims. First, the history of how we came to our current understanding of sexual harassment shows the sexualization of sexual harassment occurred because of political, legal, and practical reasons. Nothing confines us to our current view. Second, I argue against the position that sexual harassment is sui generis from gender-based harassment; rather, both emanate from the same psychological states and are thus on a continuum. I conclude by connecting the prevalence of quid pro quo forms of harassment to gender-based harassment to show that if we do not expose and attempt to end the latter, it is unlikely we will make inroads in preventing the former. It is incumbent upon proponents of the #MeToo movement to use a more expansive definition of this phenomenon.
THE BENEFITS OF TEACHING #METOO IN THE CONTEXT OF WOMEN’S LIBERATION HISTORY
Authors: Weinbaum Batya
Published: March 2021

This essay acknowledges the importance of examining the #metoo movement in global, cross-cultural, international contexts as scholars. Yet it also argues for teaching the social media (SM) movement in a grounded historical context as growing out of other moments of women’s liberation movement history in which women came together to tell their story, sharing their personal experiences that led to political action, particularly when teaching the hashtag movement in introductory women and gender studies courses. The author shares her efforts to do so online at a south-eastern technical university in the United States in the Spring of 2019. Not as part of evaluations but as part of a teaching unit within the course, she asked her nearly 50 students, both male and female, to compare and contrast the SM movement to consciousness-raising groups in which women had met face-to-face to share their experiences in an earlier time in movement history. All 300 student posts and reflections posted in the week under examination were scrutinized by the instructor, and their thoughts and conclusions analyzed. In this article, a sample of four is explored.

Authors: Mitic Petar , Stojiljković Nenad , Arsić Ivana
Published: March 2021

The occurrence of the overtraining syndrome emerges as one of the most important issues in sport. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of overtraining in sport university students and to examine the connection between the occurrence of this phenomenon and the behavior of coaches and parents. The study includes 107 students who have been competing in sport disciplines for more than two years. The results indicate that 19.6% of them have experienced overtraining syndrome and that the syndrome is more likely to occur in men and athletes who train individual sports. Overtraining occurs in one third of the athletes by the age of seventeen. Overtrained athletes perceive coaches and parents as individuals who push too hard. Suggestions for changing the behavior of coaches and parents of young athletes with the aim of preventing the occurrence of overtraining have been discussed.

THE ROLE OF A TEACHER IN MUSIC EDUCATION OF YOUNG PROFESSIONAL MUSICIANS
Authors: Zdravić-Mihailović Danijela
Published: March 2021

The paper deals with the teacher’s role in music education of pupils in music high schools. Taking into account the nature of the subjects, their objectives and outcomes, as well as the modes of instruction, the paper examines the teacher – pupil relationship, and in line with the observations, examines the role of a teacher. What dominates in teaching an instrument or solo singing, which is individual and based on performing music, is partnership between teachers and pupils, but teachers’ motivational role and his role of an evaluator are also important. On the other hand, the role of a teacher in group teaching moves towards cognitive-diagnostic, and the role that becomes prominent is the role of a regulator of social relationships. It involves fostering of good interpersonal and collegial relations within the subjects based on collective performance, such as Choir, Orchestra or Chamber Music, because they are an important prerequisite for the quality of instruction. Aside from the specific teachers’ roles in the field of music education, the paper also points to some other important teachers’ roles in terms of their wider influence on pupils and social environment.

THE STUDENT AS AN ACTIVE RECIPIENT OF LITERARY ART
Authors: Malićević Amela , Tasić Mitić Ivana , Stojadinović Aleksandar
Published: March 2021

The theory of reception in the study of literature is based on the knowledge that the reader is an indispensable actor in the realization of a literary work, as well as in the process of its spiritual form. A literary work of art can come to life and realize its true function only if the one receiving it understands and experiences it in the right way, if he manages to interpret and adopt the message that the writer sends him through the work. There is therefore a common opinion that the writer and the reader jointly create and revive the wonderful world of literary art. This paper points out the importance of educating early primary school students for the proper reception, understanding and emotional experience of a literary text. The precondition to achieve success in this endeavor, is that students successfully master the skill of reading and familiarize themselves in a comprehensive way with the different types of reading. Modern schooling also sets an important task for the teacher, which is to motivate students to read and experience literary works; and above all to encourage and help students develop their own internal motivation to read.
ICT IN TEACHING – ONCE A CHOICE, NOW A NECESSITY
Authors: Milanović Aleksandra , Novković Cveković Biljana
Published: March 2021

The usage of ICT in the teaching process was a recommendation and an opportunity to innovate and actualize it until only a few months ago. The inevitable change caused by the unexpected circumstances triggered by Covid-19 brought all teachers into a situation where there was no room for consideration and no option to avoid the use of modern technology for learning and teaching purposes. Taking into account current situation that indicates the need for integration ICT into the teaching process, the aim of this paper was to analyze the relevant research, to point out the inevitability of providing additional support to teachers for the use of ICT in teaching. Accordingly, the research objectives was: pedagogical significance and contribution of ICT integration in the teaching process, the importance of the role of teachers in the process of ICT integration in teaching, as well as potential obstacles and difficulties that teachers may face in using ICT in teaching process. The obtained results can contribute to a more comprehensive view of the problems that teachers could face in the implementation of ICT in teaching, which would allow the determination of directions that would affect changes in their opinion related to acceptance and promotion of learning in ICT environment, as well as advantages to innovate teaching process by using ICT in teaching.
THE MEANING OF THE LITERARY TEXT – READER’S INDIVIDUAL ACT
Authors: Stojanović Buba
Published: March 2021

The relationship between a literary text and a reader, and especially the triad the author – the text – the reader are complex phenomena that have been studied from different perspectives in the science of literature. However, the least attention has been paid to the reader as an important, if not the most important factor in the process of successfully revealing numerous potential meanings of the literary text. Only at the beginning of the 20th century did the reader become a significant component in the interpretation of the text. Many scientific disciplines have become interested in the reader, while his emotional sensitivity, motivation to read, depth of experience and level of mental engagement have become crucial for all possible meanings of the text. The reader becomes the key element in the process of understanding the text, whose dedication and level of reception and the future fate of the text will depend on. Starting from Ingarden’s claim that there are two different phases of interpreting a literary text (while-reading and post-reading phase), and having in mind the need to educate a true, dedicated, realistic reader, this paper highlights the importance of good motivation for experiencing and understanding a text as a prerequisite for nurturing a literary taste, developing the emotional sensitivity and individuality of a person from an early age. Understanding a literary text, whether by listening or reading, implies a mentally active recipient who is fully engaged in both phases and in direct contact with the text, and he discovers, interprets and re-creates the literary text based on his personal experience, while at the same time advancing himself spiritually, aesthetically and emotionally with new meanings that the text radiates. That is why the approach to a literary text should always be open-minded and new, it should look for unexpected, original answers that are an expression of the reader’s individual experience.
MEDIA, ETHICAL NORMS AND MEDIA LITERACY EDUCATION
Authors: Ljajić Samir
Published: March 2021

Media reporting requires ethical prudence. Journalistic ethics must set norms, guidelines, rules, and codes that will provide for truthfulness and accuracy; impartiality and honesty; respect for personality and privacy; independence from individual interests; accountability to society and social goods; respect for the law; moral, competence and good taste.. New media offer quick contact, promotion, exchange of thought, and freedom of expression. New technologies, such as the Internet, do not change the necessity of posing basic ethical issues of privacy violations, intellectual property or identity theft, dissemination of fake information, but only give them a greater dimension. The current body of research provides ample evidence of the growing need for media literacy instruction in all schooling levels in order to educate and protect the young from unethical social media contents. Therefore, this paper will deal with the problem of media, ethical norms and media literacy education comprising teaching moral reasoning and critical thinking skills. Media literacy must be incorporated in all schooling levels, from the lowest and progressing towards the highest. Even the youngest ones nowadays know how to stream, how to twitch and use social media but they are not fully aware of possible negative effects. Media and the Internet especially should be seen as an instrument of change and progress but they can be manipulative as well. However, the role of the responsible society is to educate the young how to use media to their advantage and successfully differentiate ethical from the unethical in the media of the contemporary networking world.

Authors: Cvetković Sonja
Published: March 2021

The paper deals with the founding of a professional orchestral practice in Niš, and its beginnings that are related to the 1950s and 1960s. The research, conducted with the aim of considering the cultural and artistic contribution of the symphony orchestra, as an institution, to the dynamics of the musical life in Niš is based on local press insights and available archival material. Frequent changes in the organizational structure, financial and personnel problems, artistic rises and falls, polemical tones of the cultural public that followed the establishing of the orchestral practice in Niš after the Second World War testify to the dynamic atmosphere during the first decade of existence and artistic work of symphony orchestras that were predecessors of the Niš Symphony Orchestra, which until the mid-1960s was the only symphony orchestra ensemble in Serbia besides the Belgrade Philharmonic Orchestra.
NURTURING CHOIR SINGING IN PRESCHOOL CHILDREN
Authors: Zdravković Vesna , Đorđević Ivana
Published: March 2021

We tried to use a variety of learning methods, forms and materials to successfully organize and implement music activities, and to identify the specifics and possibilities for the preschool children to sing in a choir. We tried to come up with the following findings: what should be done to properly form and set up a children’s choir; what learning methods should be used with the choir in order to motivate children; which breathing exercises should be used for such young choir singers; which technical exercises should be used with children singing in the choir (melodic exercises and voice impostation), which are the proper learning topics and methods to develop a sense of rhythm; which is the right methodological approach to use when teaching music to preschool children. We believe that by organizing and completing these tasks with properly planned actions, we would be able to encourage, monitor and develop a wide range of different music skills of preschool children.
FEDERICO FELLINI'S FILM ORCHESTRA REHEARSAL FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF NEW MUSICAL/INSTRUMENTAL THEATER
Authors: Stepanović Đorđe
Published: March 2021

The genre of new musical/instrumental theater represents a new and complex endeavor in the field of art. Its complexity includes various artistic aspects such as acting, music, dance, performance, stage design, etc. The specificity of the plot of Fellini's film Orchestra Rehearsal (Prova d’Orchestra) provides a possibility to be interpreted from the perspective of the new musical theater. Different discourses that have permeated the film (e.g. verbal, musical, visual discourse, physical movements, and body language) represent the basic idea of the new genre. In the Orchestra Rehearsal, Federico Fellini managed to merge together different discourses of artistic expression in an extraordinary way, and thus bring his film closer to the genre of new musical theater.
TREATMENT OF RECAPITULATION OF THE FIRST MOVEMENTS IN THE SONATA FORM OF BEETHOVEN’S STRING QUARTETS OP. 18
Authors: Zdravić-Mihailović Danijela
Published: March 2021

The paper focuses on the function of recapitulation in the sonata form relying on the example of the first movements of Beethoven's string quartets Op. 18 No. 1–6. With regard to the fact that recapitulation is commonly described as a restatement of the exposition with tonal alterations of the second theme and the closing section, analytical deliberations most often do not go beyond recording such alterations. However, some analysis point to the new role of the recapitulation exactly on account of the essence of the undertaken alterations, i.e. on account of the idea that the composer wants to accomplish at the level of sonata form through recapitulation. The research is conceived as a continuation of the previous studies (Zdravić Mihailović 2006, 2007a, 2007b, 2015a, 2015b). These studies focused on the genre of string quartet of Franz Joseph Haydn and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, where recapitulation was proven to be a remarkable phenomenon as its role was not merely to restate the exposition’s content with the usual tonal alterations. On the contrary, it can be a place of a new treatment of the sections of the exposition, and gives it some completely specific features.
ART IN PIXELS
Authors: Drumeva Krasimira Borisova
Published: March 2021

The development of various technologies in the second half of the twentieth century brought about the emergence of new art genres. While these new forms of art were striving for recognition and gaining popularity, the older legacy forms were also undergoing some transformations. Undoubtedly, technological innovations alter the relationships between the forms of creative expression and the audience for which art is intended. Art has not been perceived in the same way after the digital media came on stage. While arguing if computer graphics is actually a form of art, we tend to overlook the main issue: does the development of new technologies changes the entire nature of art. Traditional aesthetics is faced with the huge problem to collect, analyze and summarize the wide range of newly emerging genres of art. Most of them are not susceptible of generalization and methodization because of the unlimited freedom and dynamism in their development.

The rational use of energy and energy sources is also a growing challenge, which aims to preserve the environment. Industrial systems, primarily production systems, are the largest energy consumers. The need for this theme is the pressure of European regulation on the implementation of energy saving measures as well as to have positive impact on the environment. The standard for the energy management system, which is used in this research, consider the energy performance and energy performance indicators. One of the most well-known representatives of this type of standard is ISO 50001. The aim of the paper is to analyze the energy demand in a production organization, to have insight into material and energy flows in the process, in order to form energy management model. The model was developed with process parameters that are changed on daily basis.

Published: March 2021

In this paper the analysis of atmospheric deposition fluxes of Pb, Cd, Ni, and As in the Bor town (Serbia) is presented for the period 2011-2020. The results of measurements from the period of operation of the old smelter (2011-2015) were compared with the results of measurements during the period of operation of the new smelter (2016-2020). As a result of changes in the copper smelting technology and the better treatment of waste gases in the smelter, the average level of the total atmospheric depositon (TAD) was reduced by 63% in the period 2016-2020. The reduction of atmospheric deposition fluxes of Pb (59%), Cd (34%), and As (65%) are detected at all sampling points in the period 2016-2020. In contrast, the fluxes of Ni were increased (211%). Also, pH values of TAD have been changed at all sampling points from acidic (5.7 pH), during the period of operation of the old smelter, to alkaline (7.7 pH) in the period of operation of the new smelter.The presence of a very strong (r>0.8) and strong (0.8>r>0.6) Pearson correlation between the atmospheric deposition fluxes of cancerogenic elements were determined at all sampling points during the period 2016-2020, as opposed to the period 2011-2015 where these correlations were weak (r<0.4).
PREDICTING PRIMARY ENERGY SAVINGS OF BUILDING RETROFIT MEASURES WITH DECISION-TREE-BASED ENSEMBLE METHODS
Authors: Stojiljković Mirko , Ignjatović Marko , Vučković Goran
Published: March 2021

Primary energy is the quantity often used to express the total amount of consumed or saved energy. It is especially important for certification and standards compliance evaluation of buildings. In order to accurately assess primary energy consumption and savings of building retrofit measures, one needs adequate models that can be based on the knowledge of phenomena, on the collected data, or both. This paper analyzes the learning performance and accuracy of data-driven models based on decision trees that predict primary energy savings related to building retrofit measures. It uses supervised machine learning methods — regression decision trees and ensemble methods based on them — to train, validate, and test such models. Ensemble methods based on decision trees are powerful, accurate, but also convenient to prepare and fast to train. In addition, they calculate the relative importance of each feature. The research results with highly accurate data-driven models and consistent feature importance values.
LEACHATE TREATMENT BY REVERSE OSMOSIS METHOD- REGIONAL SANITARY LANDFILL “ZELJKOVAC” CASE STUDY
Authors: Tošić Natalija , Vasović Dejan , Nešić Bratimir , Petrović Nemanja
Published: March 2021

The purpose of this paper is to elaborate a plan for the leachate treatment at the “Zeljkovac” sanitary landfill in Leskovac city. Different processes occur over time  at the landfill. The processes of infiltration and transpiration occur continuously, distributing the humidity and affecting the water balance within the body of the landfill. The landfill body acts as a giant sponge, in which water moves, and from which water can be released - both into groundwater and into the atmosphere in the form of water vapour or as a filtrate at the bottom of the landfill. In this paper, particular attention is given to the kind of waterwhich is actually filtrate from a landfill, often called leachate. The efficiency of the most commonly used methods will be presented, depending on the most prevalent pollutants  in leachate. As there are many methods for treating this kind of wastewater, the reverse osmosis method will be presented as one of the most widely used . The technological process of a reverse osmosis plant will be described, as well as the result that shows the output quality of the leachate after the treatment process. The major finding of this paper reflects a clear justification for using this method to achieve the desired efficiency of leachate treatment.

Published: March 2021

Occupational safety is the prevention and elimination of dangers and hazards that can cause workplace injuries, occupational and other diseases and damage to the employees’ health. According to the modern concept, it implies constant monitoring of the situation with the aim to explore ways and design measures for the improvement of an occupational health and safety system. An effective way to monitor the situation in an occupational health and safety system is to define performance or success indicators, whereas, in practice, the most commonly used tool is occupational safety indicators. Indicators of work-related injuries can be absolute and relative. Since absolute indicators do not provide a realistic image of the state of workplace safety, we shall use relative indicators. A relative indicator of occupational safety often used is the injury frequency index. This indicator was obtained as the ratio of the number of injuries and effective working hours over the observation period or the number of employees in the production and business system. Also, the same indicator can be calculated in relation to the volume of production.In the forestry sector, where occupational injuries are frequent and often fatal, monitoring indicators of occupational injuries allows us to see the movement of the observed phenomenon (occupational safety) in a certain period, and also to determine the general trend of its movement (decline or growth) and most importantly to develop preventive measures. In addition, the analysis of workplace injuries using the indicators enables the comparison of occupational safety in business systems from the same activity and, thus, foster the transfer of know-how and good practice from the systems with high levels of occupational safety.
SEMANTIC-SEMIOTIC TRANSLATION MODEL AS A CRITERION FOR THE SEARCH FOR A TRANSLATION SOLUTION
Authors: Sakovets Svetlana , Rodionova Olga , Lasovskaya Natalia
Published: March 2021

The authors turn to the problem of the translation model, which can be relevant to overcoming its lexical difficulties, to the issue of highlighting semantic elements (semes) in the source text and selecting units of the translation language containing the same semes (semantic-semiotic translation model), and identifying factors that make it possible to optimize this process in teaching translation. The authors consider the semantic-semiotic translation model as a criterion for the optimal translation solution for translating polysemants and offer to use the principles of onomasiological analysis of the sentence that is to be translated.
CORPUS-DRIVEN ESP PEDAGOGY: A PRELIMINARY CASE STUDY
Authors: Rudneva Maria
Published: March 2021

The study explores application of a freely available EcoLexicon online corpus in specific language classes at Environmental studies faculty of RUDN University, Russia. Although corpus tools are traditionally used by linguists, I intend to demonstrate how they can be offered to non-linguist students to facilitate better understanding of inherent semantics, depart from generic surface understanding of professional texts and delve deep into structures and meanings, enhancing overall linguistic competence of learners and instructors alike. One of the main results of the study is that implementation of corpus-based tools clearly demonstrates unreliability of automated translated tools and fosters departure of novice professionals from assisted translation towards independent exploration of semantic nuances of target specialized languages. Despite numerous benefits, corpus-based tools can present certain challenges as well. These deficiencies, however, may be remedied by careful design of teaching materials and assignments.
ESP/LSP/GE FUSION AS AN IMPLEMENTATION OF EDUCATION CONTINUITY IDEAS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF FOSTERING VITAL SKILLS OF GENERATION Z IN THE SHADOW OF THE NEW REALITY: CASE STUDY
Authors: Dobrova Tatyana , Rubtsova Svetlana
Published: March 2021

Foreign language communication is an essential part of the future professional activities of generation Z students. A professional-oriented approach to teaching a foreign language is therefore becoming particularly relevant. It is common knowledge that the English language varies depending on the content of the professional sphere, with ESP in some spheres sounding as a foreign language to native speakers. Therefore, there is a need to combine ESP, EAP, and GE. The language abilities of generation Z students are changing due to the increase in foreign language content of everyday life. This influences the education environment, which brings modern young people closer to the need of understanding Internet content. It explains the young generation’s interest in foreign languages (in 99% of cases it is the English language). The authors focus on fostering the vital skills of generation Z and provide some recommendations based on the experience gained during the coronavirus pandemic by the Faculty of Modern Languages at St Petersburg University.
Self- versus other-directed outcomes, Machiavellianism, and hypothetical distance in COVID-19 antipandemic messages
Authors: Huang Yidan , Yang Shu , Dai JiaMin
Published: March 2021

Public health information with a fear appeal is often used to promote people's positive health intentions. Anchored by the extended parallel process model and trait activation theory, in this study we examined the effects of self- versus other-directed outcomes, Machiavellianism, and
hypothetical distance on the effectiveness of fear-appeal information in the context of COVID-19. In an online survey of 303 people in Wuhan, China, we found that respondents high in Machiavellianism reported stronger antipandemic intentions in response to a self-directed compared to an other-directed
outcome message. This effect was actualized through the trait of Machiavellianism, moderated by hypothetical distance, and mediated by perceived severity. Our findings have implications for the effective development and delivery of public health information for specific groups, and for encouraging
more detailed exploration of personality in relation to epidemiology.
Family support and entrepreneurial passion: The mediating role of entrepreneurs' psychological capital
Authors: Gao Jian-Li , Li Dong-Sheng , Conway Mary-Louise
Published: March 2021

Entrepreneurial passion is seen as a valuable predictor of entrepreneurs' behavior and performance. We explored what makes entrepreneurs passionate by adopting a qualitative research method from a social support perspective. To test our hypotheses we conducted a survey with 287 young
entrepreneurs in China. Using structural equation modeling we studied the impact of three types of support from the family on entrepreneurial passion. The results show that financial support and social capital support had a stronger influence on entrepreneurial passion than did emotional support.
Further, psychological capital played a partial mediating role in the relationship between family support and entrepreneurial passion. This study enhances the integrity of previous research conclusions on entrepreneurial passion and, in particular, provides further insight into the development
of nascent entrepreneurs and their new businesses.
How do Chinese employees respond to leader bottom-line mentality? A conservation of resources perspective
Authors: Wan Wenhai , Zhang Danni , Liu Xiayi , Jiang Kaijie
Published: March 2021

Using conservation of resources theory as a framework, we proposed that in Chinese organizations, leader bottom-line mentality (BLM) would promote employee silence via emotional exhaustion. We also examined employee conscientiousness as a moderator of this indirect relationship. We
collected three-wave data from 325 employees in four Chinese companies. Results show that leader BLM was positively related to employee silence, and employee emotional exhaustion mediated the positive relationship between leader BLM and employee silence. In addition, employee conscientiousness
served as a first-stage moderator, such that the indirect relationship between leader BLM and employee silence via employee emotional exhaustion was significant and positive only when employee conscientiousness was low. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
Native mitral valve infective endocarditis caused by Staphylococcus warneri: A case-based review

Published: March 2021

Studies reporting S. warneri in infective endocarditis (IE) are rare. We
presented a 72-year-old woman with native mitral valve S. warneri IE
associated with spondylitis and cerebellar infarction. Physicians should
be wary of IE and disseminated lesions when blood cultures reveal S.
warneri, especially in elderlies with valvular heart disease.
