Water Consumption Range Prediction in Huelva’s Households Using Classification and Regression Trees
Authors: Bermejo-Martín Gustavo , Rodríguez-Monroy Carlos , Núñez-Guerrero Yilsy M.
Published: February 2021

This paper uses the numerical results of surveys sent to Huelva’s (Andalusia, Spain) households to determine the degree of knowledge they have about the urban water cycle, needs, values, and attitudes regarding water in an intermediary city with low water stress. In previous research, we achieved three different households’ clusters. The first one grouped households with high knowledge of the integral water cycle and a positive attitude to smart devices at home. The second cluster described households with low knowledge of the integral water cycle and high sensitivity to price. The third one showed average knowledge and predisposition to have a closer relationship with the water company. This paper continues with this research line, applying Classification and Regression Trees (CART) to determine which hierarchy of variables/factors/independent components obtained from the surveys are the decisive ones to predict the range of household water consumption in Huelva. Positive attitudes towards improved cleaning habits for personal or household purposes are the highest hierarchy component to predict the water consumption range. Second in the hierarchy, the variable Knowledge Global Score about the integral urban water cycle, associated with water literacy, also contributes to predicting the water consumption range. Together with the three clusters obtained previously, these results will allow us to design water demand management strategies (WDM) fit for purpose that enable Huelva’s households to use water more efficiently.

Published: February 2021

Excessive nutrient loadings from drainage areas and resulting water quality degradation in rivers are the major environmental issues around the world. The water quality further deteriorates for the large seasonal variation of precipitation and water flow. Environmental decision makers have been exploring affordable and effective ways of securing environmental flow (EF) to improve the water quality, especially in dry seasons, and agricultural reservoirs have attracted the attention of policymakers as an alternative source of EF. This study proposed an analysis framework for assessing the EF supply potential of agricultural reservoirs as alternative sources of EF. A reservoir water balance model was prepared to mathematically represent the reservoir water balance and quantify temporal variations of the amount of water available for the EF supply. The simulation model was designed to explicitly consider inflow from the upstream drainage areas, irrigation water requirement, and hydrological processes happening in the reservoirs. The proposed framework was applied to four agricultural reservoirs located in South Korea to evaluate its efficiency. Results showed that the additional storage capacity added by the dam reinforcement enabled the study reservoirs to satisfy both needs, EF and irrigation water supply. The surplus capacity turned out to be enough to satisfy various EF supply scenarios at the annual time scale. However, the current operation plans do not consider the seasonal variations of reservoir hydrology and thus cannot supply EF without violating the original operational goal, irrigation water, especially in dry months. The results demonstrate that it is necessary to consider the temporal variations of EF when developing reservoir operation rules and plans to secure EF. This study also highlights the unconventional roles of agricultural reservoirs as resources for improved environmental quality. The methods presented in this study are expected to be a useful tool for the assessment of agricultural reservoirs’ EF supply potential.

RUSSIAN COSMISM AND ILLUSTRATION OF COSMIC SPACE IN THE RUSSIAN CINEMATOGRAPH OF THE XXI CENTURY
Authors: Dyadyk N. , Konfederat O.
Published: February 2021

The object of the research is the illustration of cosmic space in Russian cinema of the XXI century as a reflection of the traditions of Russian thinking, as well as a plastic model of the Russian reception of globalism in the new century. Research methods: general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis; a phenomenological method for identifying the intentions of a visual image; semiotic approach, allowing to analyze the structural and semiotic integer of a movie. As a result of the study, the authors conclude that the Russian screen model of cosmic space as organically rational integrity, comprehended in the intellectual and moral traditions of Russian mentality of the 19th – 20th centuries, represents a positive alternative in the spiritual reality of the 21st century.

Pred Bogom koji dolazi. Fenomenologija liturgije Jean-Yves Lacostea
Authors: Žižić Ivica
Published: February 2021

Suvremena teološka misao razmatra gotovo sva bitna
pitanja s gledišta ili barem pod utjecajem neke filozofijske perspektive nerijetko
fenomenološkog karaktera. U tom ozračju, pojavu liturgije u filozofijskome
mišljenju, ali i u filozofijski orijentiranoj teologiji, uvjetovao je 'fenomenološki
obrat' teologije. No posljednjih desetljeća bilježi se također i 'teološki
obrat' fenomenologije koja se sve snažnije povezuje uz izvorne modalitete
religioznoga života – Pismo i liturgiju. Filozofsko-teološki susret na području
liturgije i Pisma ukazuje na obnovljeni pristup 'samim stvarima' vjere koje
ponovno postaju izvor razumijevanja kršćanskoga religioznog života. U ovom radu
kritički analiziramo jedan takav primjer domišljanja liturgije kao mjesta 'dvostrukog
obrata'. Riječ je o projektu 'fenomenologiji
liturgije' francuskog filozofa i teologa Jean-Yvesa Lacostea. U obradi
fundamentalno-teoloških tema, on se vodi fenomenologijskim pristupom pitajući
se o antropološkoj poziciji i eshatološkom identitetu liturgijskog bivstvovanja
'pred Bogom koji dolazi'. Prvi dio ovoga rada obrađuje teorijska polazišta
Lacosteove 'fenomenologije liturgije', izdvajajući neke bitne odrednice koje
formiraju njegov specifični pristup liturgiji. Fenomenološka ontologija
prostora ('mjesto') i vremena ('interval'), u tome tematskom krugu, imaju ključnu
ulogu. Drugi dio propituje fenomenološki i antropologijski profil Lacosteove
fenomenologije liturgije koji se razvija polazeći od analitike iskustvenih
stanja bivanja coram Deo. U tom okviru, kritika čuvstvene svijesti i
kenotička izloženost subjekta, nalažu se kao dva stožerna teorijska trenutka
preko kojih Lacoste razlaže artikulaciju čovjekove humanosti u okrilju obrednoga
bogoslužja . Na koncu, autor ovoga članka vrjednuje cjelokupni Lacosteov teorijski sklop u
odnosu na suvremeno filozofsko-teološko mišljenje liturgije, te kritički propituje
pojedina ograničenja ovoga fenomenološkog nacrta.

Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists and Orthopaedic Surgeons Agree on the Decision for Carpal Tunnel Surgery
Authors: Lewis Karina J. , Coppieters Michel W. , Vicenzino Bill , Hughes Ian , Ross Leo , Schmid Annina B.
Published: February 2021

Background: Therapist-led pathways have been proposed as waitlist management strategies prior to surgery for conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) in public hospitals. These models of care typically shift the initial care of patients and decision-making from surgeons to therapists and, have been shown to reduce the number of patients requiring surgery and improve wait-times. This occurs despite limited evidence of surgeon-therapist agreement on key decisions, such as the need for surgery. The purpose of this was study was to assess the agreement between therapists and orthopaedic surgeons regarding the need for surgery for patients who have CTS. Methods: This blinded inter-rated agreement study was embedded in a multicentre randomised parallel groups trial of 105 patients with CTS referred to four orthopaedic departments and waitlisted for an appointment. The trial evaluated the effect of a therapist-led care pathway on the need for surgery and outcomes related to symptoms and function. Patients were randomised to either remain on the orthopaedic waitlist or receive group education, a splint and home exercises. The decision on the need for surgery at 6 months was made by a member of the orthopaedic consultant team or by one of the 14 participating therapists. The therapists and surgeons were blinded to each other’s decision. Agreement was determined using percentage agreement, kappa coefficients (k), prevalence-adjusted and bias-adjusted kappa (PABAK), and Gwet’s first-order agreement coefficient (AC1). Results: Substantial agreement was seen between therapists and surgeons regarding the need for surgery (PABAK=0.74 (0.60-0.88)). Agreement was significantly associated with experience (P=.02). Therapists with advanced experience and scope of practice demonstrated perfect agreement with surgeons (PABAK=1.00 (95% CI: 1.00-1.00)). Mid-career therapists demonstrated substantial agreement (PABAK=0.67 (95% CI: 0.42-0.91)) and early-career therapists demonstrated fair agreement (PABAK=0.43 (95% CI: -0.04-0.90)). Conclusion: Therapists with advanced scope of practice make decisions that are consistent with orthopaedic surgeons.
Academic Health Science Centres as Vehicles for Knowledge Mobilisation in Australia? A Qualitative Study
Authors: Edelman Alexandra , Clay-Williams Robyn , Fischer Michael , Kislov Roman , Kitson Alison , McLoughlin Ian , Skouteris Helen , Harvey Gillian
Published: February 2021

Background: Despite increasing investments in academic health science centres (AHSCs) in Australia and an expectation that they will serve as vehicles for knowledge translation and exchange, there is limited empirical evidence on whether and how they deliver impact. The aim of this study was to examine and compare the early development of four Australian AHSCs to explore how they are enacting their impact-focused role. Methods: A descriptive qualitative methodology was employed across four AHSCs located in diverse health system settings in urban and regional locations across Australia. Data were collected via semi-structured interviews with 15 academic, industry and executive board members of participating AHSCs. The analysis combined inductive and deductive elements, with inductive categories mapped to deductive themes corresponding to the study aims. Results: AHSCs in Australia are in an emergent state of development and are following different pathways. Whilst varied approaches to support research translation are apparent, there is a dominant focus on structure and governance, as opposed to action-oriented roles and processes to deliver strategic goals. Balancing collaboration and competition between partners presents a challenge, as does identifying appropriate ways to evaluate impact. Conclusion: The early stage of development of AHSCs in Australia presents an important opportunity for formative learning and evaluation to optimise their enactment of knowledge mobilisation processes for impact.
Using Group Model Building to Capture the Complex Dynamics of Scaling Up District-Level Surgery in Arusha Region, Tanzania
Authors: Broekhuizen Henk , Lansu Monic , Gajewski Jakub , Pittalis Chiara , Ifeanyichi Martilord , Juma Adinan , Marealle Paul , Kataika Edward , Chilonga Kondo , Rouwette Etiënne , Brugha Ruairi , Bijlmakers Leon
Published: February 2021

Background: Scaling up surgery at district hospitals (DHs) is the critical challenge if the Tanzanian national Surgical, Obstetric, and Anesthesia Plan (NSOAP) objectives are to be achieved. Our study aims to address this challenge by taking a dynamic view of surgical scale-up at the district level using a participatory research approach. Methods: A group model building (GMB) workshop was held with 18 professionals from three hospitals in the Arusha region. They built a graphical representation of the local system of surgical services delivery through a facilitated discussion that employed the nominal group technique. This resulted in a causal loop diagram (CLD) from which the participants identified the requirements for scaling-up surgery and the stakeholders who could satisfy these. After the GMB sessions, we identified clusters of related variables using inductive thematic analysis and the main feedback loops driving the model. Results: The CLD consists of 57 variables. These include the 48 variables that were obtained through the nominal group technique and those that participants added later. We identified 6 themes: patient benefits, financing of surgery, cost sharing, staff motivation, communication, and effects on referral hospital. There are 5 self-reinforcing feedback loops: training, learning, meeting demand, revenues, and willingness to work in a good hospital. There are four self-correcting feedback loops or ‘resistors to change:’ recurrent costs, income lost, staff stress, and brain drain. Conclusion: This study provides a systems view on the scaling up of surgery from a district level perspective. Its results enable a critical appraisal of the feasibility of implementing the NSOAP. Our results suggest that policy-makers should be wary of ‘quick fixes’ that have short term gains only. Long term policy that considers the complex dynamics of surgical systems and that allows for periodic evaluation and adaption is needed to scale up surgery in a sustainable manner.
Addressing Malnutrition: The Importance of Political Economy Analysis of Power
Authors: Walls Helen , Nisbett Nick , Laar Amos , Drimie Scott , Zaidi Shehla , Harris Jody
Published: February 2021

Background: The exercise of power is central to understanding global health and its policy and governance processes, including how food systems operate and shape population nutrition. However, the issue of power in food systems has been little explored empirically or theoretically to date. In this article, we review previous work on understanding power in addressing malnutrition as part of food systems that could be used in taking this issue further in future food systems research. In particular, we examine why acknowledging power is vital in addressing food systems for better nutritional outcomes, approaches to assessing power in empirical research, and ways of addressing issues of power as they relate to food systems. Methods: We undertook a narrative review and synthesis. This involved identifying relevant articles from searches of PubMed and Scopus, and examining the reference lists of included studies. We considered for inclusion literature written in English and related to countries of all income levels. Data from included articles were summarized under several themes. Results: We highlight the importance of acknowledging power as a critical issue in food systems, present approaches that can be taken by food-systems researchers and practitioners in assessing power to understand the ways in which power works in food systems and wider society, and present material relating to addressing power and developing strategies to improve food systems for better nutrition, health and well-being. Conclusion: A range of research approaches exist that can inform examination of power in food systems, and support the development of strategies to improve food systems for better nutrition, health and well-being. However, there is considerable scope for further work in this under-researched area. We hope that this review will support the necessary research to understand further power in food systems and drive the much-needed transformative change.
Barriers to Equitable Public Participation in Health-System Priority Setting Within the Context of Decentralization: The Case of Vulnerable Women in a Ugandan District
Authors: Razavi S. Donya , Kapiriri Lydia , Abelson Julia , Wilson Michael
Published: February 2021

Background: Decentralization of healthcare decision-making in Uganda led to the promotion of public participation. To facilitate this, participatory structures have been developed at sub-national levels. However, the degree to which the participation structures have contributed to improving the participation of vulnerable populations, specifically vulnerable women, remains unclear. We aim to understand whether and how vulnerable women participate in health-system priority setting; identify any barriers to vulnerable women’s participation; and to establish how the barriers to vulnerable women’s participation can be addressed. Methods: We used a qualitative description study design involving interviews with district decision-makers (n=12), sub-county leaders (n=10), and vulnerable women (n=35) living in Tororo District, Uganda. Data was collected between May and June 2017. The analysis was conducting using an editing analysis style. Results: The vulnerable women expressed interest in participating in priority setting, believing they would make valuable contributions. However, both decision-makers and vulnerable women reported that vulnerable women did not consistently participate in decision-making, despite participatory structures that were instituted through decentralization. There are financial (transportation and lack of incentives), biomedical (illness/disability and menstruation), knowledge-based (lack of knowledge and/or information about participation), motivational (perceived disinterest, lack of feedback, and competing needs), socio-cultural (lack of decision-making power), and structural (hunger and poverty) barriers which hamper vulnerable women’s participation. Conclusion: The identified barriers hinder vulnerable women’s participation in health-system priority setting. Some of the barriers could be addressed through the existing decentralization participatory structures. Respondents made both short-term, feasible recommendations and more systemic, ideational recommendations to improve vulnerable women’s participation. Integrating the vulnerable women’s creative and feasible ideas to enhance their participation in health-system decision-making should be prioritized.
The Basic Determinants of Malnutrition: Resources, Structures, Ideas and Power
Authors: Harris Jody , Nisbett Nicholas
Published: February 2021

Background: While child undernutrition is improving overall, different population groups are experiencing different outcomes. What sets some groups apart is their experience of the ‘basic determinants’ of malnutrition, that underpin the ‘immediate’ and ‘underlying’ determinants, and that have been much less studied, defined and understood. Methods: We undertook a qualitative narrative review based in two sets of ideas: nutrition’s basic determinants as laid out in the original United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) framework, and critical concepts emerging from development studies. These ideas informed searches in Google Scholar, and resulting papers formed the basis for the review. Results: Based on this literature, we expand and clarify the terminology of ‘basic determinants’ into a new framework, to include (1) resources and (material, human, social and natural) capitals at the basic level; (2) structures including social, market, legal and political systems driven by long-term demographic, economic, and environmental trends; and (3) ideas, beliefs and ideologies prevailing within a given society – crystallising into social norms and institutions – fundamentally shaping how societies are structured around power and marginalisation. We then illustrate with existing literature how these basic factors play out in the food, health and care determinants of malnutrition; and how theories of human rights and collective commons point us towards practical redressal options through improved participation and accountability. Conclusion: We show here that the basic determinants are not a black box of ‘context,’ but can be broken down into comprehensible issues that are amenable to change, and should be considered explicitly in research and action to reduce the global burden of malnutrition.

Opera-Based Instrumental Parodies in Antonio Vivaldi's Concertos
Authors: Пастушкова Анна Сергеевна
Published: February 2021

В статье рассмотрена проблема композиционных параллелизмов между инструментальными концертами и оперными ариями Антонио Вивальди. Введены термины для описания типов «театрализованной» ритурнельной формы и композиционного устройства концертов. Показано влияние признаков оперной арии на форму и жанровую специфику частей инструментального концерта. Предложена новая классификация примеров протяженного цитирования оперных арий в инструментальных концертах, среди которых - неизвестные ранее цитаты, обнаруженные автором статьи в концертах RV 139, RV 159 и RV 189.

The article deals with thematic concordances between instrumental concertos and operatic arias by Antonio Vivaldi. New terms are proposed in order to describe the types of ‘operatic' ritornello form and sections of musical compositions. Comparative analysis of the music material of arias and corresponding concertos shows the influence of operatic aria's features to musical form and genre of concerto's movements. Based on various types of such influence, new classification of all presently known cases of the operatic arias reworked by Vivaldi for his instrumental concertos and vice versa is delivered. Proposed classification includes previously unknown cases of self-borrowing discovered by the author of this article in the instrumental concertos RV 139, RV 159 and RV 189.
Dargomyzhsky's Esthetics: Traditional Approach with Nontraditional Conclusions
Authors: Степанова Ирина Владимировна
Published: February 2021

В статье рассматривается эстетика Даргомыжского. В течение двух десятилетий автор читает в Московской консерватории спецкурс, посвященный этому русскому классику. Детальное изучение эпистолярия композитора и редко исполняемых сочинений вызвало желание пересмотреть многие хрестоматийные положения, касающиеся его эстетики и общей эволюции творчества. Хочется верить, что знакомство с предлагаемым текстом подарит читателю не только ощущение новизны восприятия музыки Даргомыжского, но и приблизит к пониманию истинной сложности его личности, которая оказывается значительно более яркой, глубокой и интригующей, чем представлялась ранее. Пафос статьи не ограничивается сказанным. Одна из центральных проблем, в ней поднятых, связана со степенью одаренности композитора. Она активно обсуждалась при жизни Даргомыжского, замалчивалась в советское время, возвысившее композитора до великих по идеологическим причинам, но сегодня вновь актуальна. Автор не скрывает полемической заостренности этого вопроса.

The article deals with the esthetics of Dargomyzhsky. For two decades the author has been delivering a specialized course dedicated to this Russian classic. Detailed examination of the composer's epistolary and the seldom performed pieces inspired the desire to revise many of the canonical concepts pertaining to his esthetics and the general evolution of his oeuvre. Tantalizingly, the glimpse of this narrative will not only compliment the reader with a feeling of new perception of Dargomyzhsky's music but will also bring us closer to understanding of the intrinsic sophistication of his personality that turns out to be much brighter, deeper and thought-provoking than it previously appeared. The message of the article is not confined to the above said. One of its focal points is related with the extent of the composer's natural aptitude. This topic was actively discussed during Dargomyzhsky's life, hushed up about in the Soviet times when Dargomyzhsky was raised to the “great” level for ideological reasons, but today has again resumed its actuality. The author does not hold back the polemic bitterness of this issue.
Vasily Sapelnikov vs Imperial Russian Musical Society (1903): New Materials
Authors: Шабшаевич Елена Марковна
Published: February 2021

В статье рассматривается история конфликта выдающегося пианиста Василия Львовича Сапельникова с руководством Императорского Русского музыкального общества (в лице глав Петербургской и Московской дирекций - Цезаря Антоновича Кюи и Василия Ильича Сафонова) в 1903 году. Инцидент был вызван нарушением договоренности о неучастии Сапельникова в концертах Московского филармонического общества в случае заключения контракта с ИРМО. Посредником в переговорах стало немецкое концертное агентство Вольфа, которое устраивало данный ангажемент. Подробный анализ сложившейся ситуации стал возможен благодаря привлечению новых архивных источников из фондов Российского национального музея музыки - переписки непосредственных участников инцидента, которая впервые вводится в научный оборот. Ее анализ в комплексе с сопутствующими уже опубликованными материалами не только проясняет конкретные обстоятельства дела, но и позволяет воссоздать контекст концертной жизни русских столиц начала XX века - в частности, особенности менеджмента в условиях конкуренции филармонических организаций, институциональное положение артиста, степень юридического оформления его прав и обязанностей.

The article deals with the history of the conflict between the outstanding pianist Vasily L. Sapelnikov and the Directorate of the Imperial Russian Musical Society (represented by the Heads of St. Petersburg and Moscow Divisions-Cesar A. Cui and Vasily I. Safonov) in 1903. The incident was caused by Sapelnikov's breach of condition of his non-participation in concerts of Moscow Philharmonic Society in case of signing a contract with Imperial Russian Musical Society. Wolff's Concert Agency, which arranged this engagement, became the mediator in the negotiations. A detailed analysis of the case was made possible by attracting new archival sources from the collections of the Russian National Museum of Music, i. e. the correspondence of participants of the incident, which is being introduced into scientific circulation for the first time. Its study and analysis, together with the accompanying published materials, not only clarify the specific circumstances of the case, but also allow us to reconstruct the context of the concert life of Russian capitals in the early 20 century-in particular, the features of management in the conditions of competing Philharmonic organizations, the institutional position of the artist, the degree of legal registration of his rights and duties.
“Dodekachordon” by Heinrich Glareanus and “Dodecacorde” by Claude Le Jeune: An Experience of Comparison
Authors: Лыжов Григорий Иванович
Published: February 2021

В статье демонстрируется редкий исторический пример такой связи музыкальной теории и композиторской практики, при котором художественный текст возникает отчасти как воплощение идей текста музыкально-научного. Особенной выглядит подчеркивающая эту связь идентичность названия трактата Генриха Глареана («Dodekachordon», 1547) и обширного цикла полифонических псалмовых композиций Клоде Лежёна («Dodecacorde», 1598). Однако различия превышают сходство: помимо того, что 12-ладовая система Глареана воспринята Лежёном через призму трактатов Джозеффо Царлино, его цикл глубоко отличается от своего музыкально-теоретического «однофамильца» и мировоззренчески, и стилистически. В то же время композиционные решения Лежёна зачастую представляют собой лишь радикальные выводы из тех гуманистических предпосылок, которые были внесены в теорию лада Глареаном и развиты Царлино.

The article demonstrates a rare historical example of such a connection between musical theory and composer's practice, in which a musical text arises partly as an embodiment of the ideas of a musical-scientific text. This connection is emphasized by the identity of titles of the treatise by Heinrich Glarean (“Dodekachordon,” 1547) and of the extensive cycle of polyphonic psalm compositions by Claude Le Jeune (“Dodecacorde,” 1598). However, the differences exceed the similarities: in addition to the fact that Glarean's system of 12 modes was perceived by Le Jeune through the prism of Gioseffo Zarlino's treatises, his cycle is deeply different from his musical-theoretical “namesake” both philosophically and stylistically. At the same time, Le Jeune's compositional solutions often represent radical conclusions from those humanistic assumptions that were introduced into the modal theory by Glarean and developed by Zarlino.
About the New Opera by Alexander Tchaikovsky: To the Interpretation of the Genre
Authors: Григорьева Галина Владимировна
Published: February 2021

Статья посвящена анализу новой оперы А. Чайковского «Сказ о Борисе и Глебе» - исследованию особенностей драматургии и музыкального языка, а также ее сценической интерпретации. Оправданность режиссерского решения с опорой на пластику обусловлена оригинальной композиторской трактовкой жанра с уклоном в сторону оратории и инструментального концерта, с активным противопоставлением речи и музыки, сочетанием монументальности и динамичности, академической серьезности и демократической открытости.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the new opera by A. Tchaikovsky “Tale of Boris and Gleb”-the study of the characteristics of drama and musical language, as well as its stage interpretation. The justification of the director's decision, relying on plastic, is due to the original interpretation of the genre by composer: with a bias towards an oratorio and an instrumental concert, with an active juxtaposition of speech and music, with a combination of monumentality and dynamism, academic seriousness and democratic openness.

Instrumentation in Condition of Real and Virtual Acoustics Around Music
Authors: Красильников Игорь Михайлович
Published: February 2021

Инструментовкой сегодня занимаются не только композиторы, создающие оркестровые партитуры, но и широкий круг музыкантов - профессионалов и любителей, работающих в различных жанрах электронной музыки. Электронная инструментовка имеет много общего с ее традиционным видом, поскольку в обоих случаях решаются одинаковые задачи: реализация колористического потенциала исходного текста, выстраивание композиционной формы с помощью выделения ее разделов, выстраивание фактуры путем заполнения акустического пространства и прорисовки ее пластов. Различия же обусловлены разной природой музыкального материала. В одном случае - это звучание оркестровых инструментов в концертном зале или на открытом воздухе. В другом - это множество синтезированных звуков в условиях виртуальной акустики, которая может быть представлена в самых разных вариантах. Электронная инструментовка, опираясь на сложившиеся в многовековой академической практике приемы, обогащается за счет использования новых звуков и возможностей управления виртуальным пространством их развертывания.

Today, not only composers who create orchestral scores are engaged in instrumentation, but also a wide range of musicians-professionals and amateurs working in various genres of electronic music. Electronic instrumentation has a lot in common with its traditional form, since in both cases the same tasks are solved: realizing the color potential of the source text, building a compositional form by highlighting its sections, building a texture by filling the acoustic space and drawing its layers. The differences are due to the different nature of the sound material. In one case, it is the sound of orchestral instruments in a concert hall or in the open air. In the other case, it is a variety of synthesized sounds in a virtual acoustic environment, characterized by diversity and variability. Therefore, electronic instrumentation, based on the techniques developed in centuries-old practice, is enriched by the use of these new sounds and the ability to manage the virtual space of their deployment.

Hypothyroidism is a common condition of thyroid hormone deficiency that is easily diagnosed and corrected. But often the symptoms of thyroid insufficiency are nonspecific and similar to other somatic diseases, especially in older patients, which causes difficulties in timely diagnosis and treatment. Monosymptomatics often leads to an erroneous diagnosis, these are the so-called therapeutic «masks» of hypothyroidism. The article discusses a clinical case of late diagnosed hypothyroidism occurring under a cardiological mask was reviewed. Patient treatment for cardiovascular failure did not bring the expected result. Additional diagnostics revealed autoimmune thyroiditis, primary hypothyroidism, severe course. To correct thyroid function, the patient was prescribed L-thyroxine, which led to the disappearance of symptoms from the cardiovascular system.

Authors: Vareshniuk O.
Published: February 2021

A comprehensive examination of 79 children of middle age (3,2±1,3) years old with perinatal hypoxic-ischemic damage to the central nervous system who were born prematurely was performed. The clinical features of impaired motor functions in premature infants who underwent perinatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage complicated by intraventricular hemorrhages were studied. It was shown that cerebral palsy was diagnosed in 20,3 % of sick children, which was accompanied by severe motor disorders of levels IV–V according to the classification of motor functions GMFCS; 37,9 % have spastic diplegia with II–III level of motor disorders; 27,8 % have a hemiplegic form of cerebral palsy with motor disorders corresponding to level II of the GMFCS classification. Acquired posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus was diagnosed in 14,0 % of the examined children, while the vast majority of children who were operated on before 6 months of age did not have motor deficiency (level III according to the GMFCS classification); 1 child (9,1 %) was not operated on and had a V level of motor disorders according to GMFCS. It has been established that the most significant factors that form a severe motor prognosis are: gestational age of 27–30 weeks, peri-intraventricular hemorrhages of II–IV degrees, periventricular leukomalacia of III degree and signs of periventricular ischemia.
Problem of differential diagnostics of neurodegenerative pathology
Authors: Chernenko M.E.
Published: February 2021

The differential diagnosis of multiple sclerosis and Wilson–Konovalov’s disease is an important clinical task, the timely appointment of adequate therapy depends on the correct solution of which. With the seemingly simple differential diagnosis of these diseases, in some cases, especially atypical, there are certain difficulties in making the correct diagnosis. Magnetic resonance imaging is a mandatory study in the structure of a comprehensive examination of patients with multiple sclerosis and Wilson–Konovalov’s disease. Conducting standardized magnetic resonance imaging scans performed on a high-field tomograph is mandatory in all cases of differential diagnosis in patients with demyelinating pathology of the central nervous system and neurodegenerative diseases. An analysis of the topography of focal changes in dynamics, an assessment of the rate of increase of atrophic changes is of great importance for the timely appointment of adequate treatment, which in turn directly affects the prognosis of the disease. The brain magnetic resonance imaging data from 30 patients with multiple sclerosis and 10 patients with Wilson–Konovalov’s disease who were treated at the GU INPN NAMS of Ukraine (Kharkov) were described. It is concluded that both multiple sclerosis and Wilson–Konovalov’s disease are chronic partially controlled diseases in which dynamic monitoring is extremely important, an integral part of which is the conduct of adequate neuroimaging. None of the methods for diagnosing multiple sclerosis and Wilson–Konovalov’s disease has independent diagnostic value, and diagnosis is possible only with a comprehensive analysis of clinical, laboratory, genetic and neuroimaging data.
Analysis of family anxiety in women with depressive disorders of different genesis and macrosocial, mesosocial and microsocial maladaptation of different expression
Authors: Isakov R.I.
Published: February 2021

252 women with depressive disorders were examined: 94 people were with psychogenic (prolonged depressive reaction caused by adjustment disorder), 83 women were with endogenous (depressive episode; recurrent depressive disorder; bipolar disorder, current episode of depression) and 75 patients were with organic depression (organic affective disorders). 48 women had no signs of psychosocial maladaptation, the remaining 204 had manifestations of macrosocial, mesosocial and microsocial maladaptation of varying severity. The features of family anxiety in women with depression of various origins and different severity of macrosocial, mesosocial and microsocial maladaptation were investigated in order to determine the target targets of differentiated psychosocial rehabilitation of patients in this contingent. Clinical-psychopathological and psychodiagnostic methods were used. There was revealed a general tendency towards an increase in the indicators of family guilt, family anxiety and family tension as the degree of macrosocial, mesosocial and microsocial maladaptation increased. At the same time, the greatest differences in indicators were observed between the groups with moderate and severe maladaptation, and the smallest differences were observed between the groups without signs of disadaptation and with signs of mild maladaptation. The data obtained should be taken into account when developing treatment and rehabilitation measures for patients of this contingent.

En esta práctica se llevará a cabo una destilación, que es un método físico de separación de los componentes de una mezcla homogénea, en la que al menos uno de los componentes es un líquido volátil. Más concretamente, se procederá a la separación de dos líquidos miscibles: el alcohol etílico y el alcohol bencílico. Esta técnica se basa en la diferencia en los puntos de ebullición de los distintos componentes (78ºC para el alcohol etílico y 205ºC para el alcohol bencílico). Así, al calentar la mezcla, se evaporará primero el componente de menor punto de ebullición, el alcohol etílico, el cual se condensará sobre un recipiente distinto, separándose del alcohol bencílico, que quedará en el recipiente inicial.

En esta práctica se explica un método físico de separación de los componentes de una mezcla homogénea, en la que al menos uno de los componentes es un líquido volátil y que se conoce como destilación. Esta técnica se basa en la diferencia en los puntos de ebullición de los distintos componentes. Así, al calentar la mezcla, se evaporará primero el componente de menor punto de ebullición, el cual, al llegar al refrigerante Liebig, que contiene agua fría en circulación, se condensa y cae sobre un recipiente distinto, quedando el componente de mayor temperatura de ebullición en el recipiente inicial.
Translating the History of Race: Indigenous Australian Literature in German
Authors: Haag Oliver
Published: February 2021

German interest in, and reception of, Indigenous Australian cultures have a long and also burdened history. With the emergence of German translations of Indigenous literature in the 1980s – that is, literature not about, but penned by, Indigenous authors – one-sided politics of representations and thus also stigmatised images started to change. Yet, the translation of literature per se does not simply entail a representation free of clichés and prejudices. Cultural knowledge cannot be simply rendered ‘correct’ according to the regimes of the source culture, but need to be adapted to the regimes of the target cultures. This article focuses on the ways the manifold concepts of race have been translated into three German audiobooks. Important aspects of race, it shows, have been lost in translation, while the racial history of the target culture poses new challenges for a literature that is intricately enmeshed with race and that seeks to rebut racism.
Die Demaskierung des Virus oder die Konstruktion einer historischen Analogie: Der Pressespiegel des Dr. John Howard L. Cumpston und die ‘Spanische Grippe’ von 1918-1920 in Australien
Authors: von Holleuffer Henriette
Published: February 2021

At least 15,000 Australians died as a result of the so-called ‘Spanish Flu’ between 1918 and 1920. The administrative strategies for containment remained primarily the responsibility of the government authorities – successes and failures in fighting the pandemic correlated with the degree of harmonization between medical advice, official rules and civic responsibility. Dr. John Howard L. Cumpston who in 1921 became the first Australian Director-General of the Department of Health created a large volume of press cuttings on the influenza epidemic. This set ’appears to have been collected for use in the preparation of a series of official pamphlets‘. Today, this press kit sheds light on Australia’s contemporary view of the ’Spanish Flu‘. The following analysis illustrates Australia’s response to the spread of the virus (also with regard to the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic after exactly 100 years) under the aspects of collective action and individual denial – without arguing for a historical analogy.
