Przyswajanie złożoności językowej przez uczniów z deficytami języka i mowy w nauczaniu włączającym
Authors: Karpińska-Szaj Katarzyna , Lewandowska Agata
Published: July 2021

The article reports on an action research study which uses reformulation as its key instrument. The aim of the study was to identify the individual characteristics of acquisition of complex structures in Polish (native language) and English (foreign language) by children with speech and language deficits, learning in an inclusive environment at the upper primary level. The analysis of the gathered data focuses on Polish and English structures used by special needs students and mainstream students in their inclusive educational environment, and on the students’ ability to build/reconstruct a narrative structure – according to the unique qualities of the input text. The observed trends help to plan and organise the teaching process, which also includes the rehabilitation of speech and language in a foreign language lesson.
On the Segre invariant for rank two vector bundles on ℙ2
Authors: Roa-Leguizamón L. , Torres-López H. , Zamora A. G.
Published: July 2021

We extend the concept of the Segre invariant to vector bundles on a surface X. For X = ℙ2 we determine what numbers can appear as the Segre invariant of a rank 2 vector bundle with given Chern classes. The irreducibility of strata with fixed Segre invariant is proved and their dimensions are computed. Finally, we present applications to the Brill–Noether Theory for rank 2 vector bundles on ℙ2.

Authors: Reede Fabian
Published: July 2021

Let X be an Enriques surface over the field of complex numbers. We prove that there exists a nontrivial quaternion algebra 𝓐 on X. Then we study the moduli scheme of torsion free 𝓐-modules of rank one. Finally we prove that this moduli scheme is an étale double cover of a Lagrangian subscheme in the corresponding moduli scheme on the associated covering K3 surface.
The laboratory in the multidisciplinary diagnosis of differences or disorders of sex development (DSD)
Authors: Granada Maria Luisa , Audí Laura
Published: July 2021

Objectives

The development of female or male sex characteristics occurs during fetal life, when the genetic, gonadal, and internal and external genital sex is determined (female or male). Any discordance among sex determination and differentiation stages results in differences/disorders of sex development (DSD), which are classified based on the sex chromosomes found on the karyotype.

Content

This chapter addresses the physiological mechanisms that determine the development of female or male sex characteristics during fetal life, provides a general classification of DSD, and offers guidance for clinical, biochemical, and genetic diagnosis, which must be established by a multidisciplinary team. Biochemical studies should include general biochemistry, steroid and peptide hormone testing either at baseline or by stimulation testing. The genetic study should start with the determination of the karyotype, followed by a molecular study of the 46,XX or 46,XY karyotypes for the identification of candidate genes.

46,XX DSD include an abnormal gonadal development (dysgenesis, ovotestes, or testes), an androgen excess (the most frequent) of fetal, fetoplacental, or maternal origin and an abnormal development of the internal genitalia. Biochemical and genetic markers are specific for each group.

Outlook

Diagnosis of DSD requires the involvement of a multidisciplinary team coordinated by a clinician, including a service of biochemistry, clinical, and molecular genetic testing, radiology and imaging, and a service of pathological anatomy.
From lectures to lessons and back again:The deterritorialization of transmission inElizabeth Costello
Authors: Biti Vladimir
Published: July 2021

J. M. Coetzee’sElizabeth Costelloconsists of eight “lessons,” which in their turn play host to seven lectures as given either by Coetzee himself or his fictional doppelganger. When a fiction consists of lessons that embed lectures, the latter are delivered simultaneously to the present direct addressees and to absent indirect ones. Both Costello and Coetzee refuse to accept the consensual illusion of their lecture halls by preferring to address a scattered and heterogeneous readership. Their lectures break the realist illusion by drawing attention to their unreliable performers who cannot act as unbiased agents of commonality. The best way to provoke dissent is to put emphasis on the consensual reality’s discarded “real,” such as violated children, exterminated peoples, or suffering animals. By responding to its call from an ever-new point of view and establishing a migrating point of view, Costello and Coetzee untiringly distance themselves from the artifice of reality that surrounds them.
Refusing to be silenced: Claiming chaos narrative
Authors: Donnelly Colleen
Published: July 2021

In theWounded Storyteller, Arthur Frank proposed three types of narrative told by people attempting to reclaim their voice and the body made alien by illness – restitution, quest, and chaos. Restitution narrative has dominated media; in it, the patient simply experiences the disease and is presented passively, and the medical community is presented as having agency. In quest narrative, the experiencer becomes their own hero; their suffering brings knowledge which is then shared with the audience who bears witness and is charged with learning the lesson the experience conveys. In quest narrative, while speakers have agency that they are often robbed of in the restitution narrative, they are saddled with the imperative to inspire others. This makes the narrator a hero, but we need to ask, where does the imperative come from that demands that the narrator become a hero and an example for others? If that imperative comes from the audience and market demands, we need to recognize how they are dictating the manner in which stories are told, determining which are selected by publishers and media venues to be disseminated. The third type, the chaos narrative, is rarely encountered by audiences because the chaos narrative is usually erased. This “anti-narrative” can only be lived and cannot be told. The individual living with chronic physical or mental illness or a disability, who cannot be stoic and turn their story into a quest narrative, is rendered mute. Since restitution narrative is also unavailable to these individuals, their stories are left unspoken or unwritten. Their stories have largely been controlled by external agents. Failure to meet normate expectations has meant rejection. How prescriptive norms arose that delegitimatized the authority of chaos narrative must be understood if authentic chaos narrative is to be spoken and written.
CFD analysis and RSM optimization of obstacle layout in Tesla micromixer
Authors: Wang Xiaowen , Yang Lihong , Sun Fujia
Published: July 2021

As a kind of fast and efficient mixing equipment, micromixer has been applied to chemical reaction detection. Its application can not only save experimental samples but also reduce the experimental time. In micromixers, Tesla structure is widely used due to its simple structure and special flow mechanism. In this paper, CFD and response surface method are used to analyze and verify the flow field of the configuration of adding diamond obstacles in the Tesla mixer. The results show that the order of layout parameter weight from large to small is obstacle size > vertical offset > horizontal offset. And the Desirability was 0.806, the optimal diamond obstacle size is 46.35 μm and the optimal lateral offset is 18.78 μm. In addition, a constant value OF 20 μm is predicted as the optimal vertical offset of the micromixer. Compared with the Tesla-type micromixer without obstacles, the diamond-shaped barrier Tesla-type micromixer designed in this paper has higher mixing rate and lower pressure drop under the same conditions, which can be applied to chemical reactors, and can also help to improve the accuracy of chemical reaction. It can be demonstrated that the presented optimal design method of obstacles layout in Tesla mixer is a simple and effective technology to improve the liquid mixing in microfluidic devices, and it has a broad application prospect in chemical engineering.
»Über den Abgrund«
Authors: Lohl Jan
Published: July 2021

Der Artikel geht anhand einer Einzelfallstudie empirisch der Frage nach, wie Menschen aus der Grauzone zwischen Konservatismus und Rechtsextremismus sich rechte Einstellungen und Handlungsbereitschaften aneignen. Welche biographischen Dispositionen und psychischen Dynamiken, welche Gruppenprozesse und sozialen Praxen werden für diese Aneignung bedeutsam? Mittels einer tiefenhermeneutischen Analyse eines biographischnarrativen Interviews mit einem AfD-Mitglied wird verdeutlicht, dass in rechten Gruppierungen und durch rechte Propaganda ein psychosozialer Prozess angestoßen wird, der lebensgeschichtlich entwickelte Abwehrstrukturen und biographische Kompetenzen, Krisen und Konflikte zu bearbeiten, schwächt. Hierdurch erst werden im Verlauf rechter Sozialisationsprozesse psychische Dynamiken, un(v)erträgliche Erlebnisse und Affekte des Subjekts nachträglich virulent gemacht, die mittels einer völkischen Idealisierung und einer projektiven Feindbildung schiefgeheilt werden.
Spannungsfelder nationaler Zugehörigkeit am Beispiel des Haderns mit dem Titelgewinn der Fußball-Weltmeisterschaft 2014
Authors: Kühn Thomas
Published: July 2021

Um die Dynamik des Rechtspopulismus zu verstehen, ist es wichtig sich damit auseinanderzusetzen, wie das Konzept von Nationalität und die Bedeutung von Zugehörigkeit in der Gesellschaft verhandelt werden. Der vorliegende Beitrag geht von der Annahme aus, dass der Status von nationaler Zugehörigkeit für zeitgenössische Gesellschaften uneindeutig und der Bezug einzelner Bürger*innen zu ihrer Nationalität in der Folge spannungsgeladen ist. Der vorliegende Beitrag widmet sich diesen Spannungsfeldern, indem er zunächst eine Differenzierung aus kritisch sozialpsychologischer Forschung vornimmt und dann am Beispiel eines qualitativen Forschungsprojekts die Bedeutung dieser Spannungsfelder untersucht. Dabei geht es um die Auseinandersetzung deutscher Staatsbürger*innen mit dem Titelgewinn der Fußball-Weltmeisterschaft der Männer 2014. Im Fazit wird argumentiert, dass ambivalenter nationaler Identität und damit verbundener subjektiver Mehrstimmigkeit sowohl aus wissenschaftlicher als auch aus gesellschaftspolitischer Perspektive mehr Aufmerksamkeit gebührt und damit gleichzeitig ein noch unzureichend genutztes Potenzial für einen fruchtbaren Dialog innerhalb von Gesellschaften verbunden ist.
„Vom Haben und Machen“

Published: July 2021

Kinderzeichnungen als bedeutsamer Zugang zur kindlichen Perspektive auf die Welt und die eigene Position darin könnten vor allem in der kulturvergleichenden Forschung verstärkt interessieren. Versteht man Kinderzeichnungen als Bilder und damit (auch) als Träger von kulturellen Bedeutungen, in denen sich Erfahrungen und implizite Wissensbestände der Zeichnenden dokumentieren, bietet sich eine rekonstruktive Analyse an, die gleichsam ‚hinter‘ das offensichtlich Abgebildete schaut. In der vorliegenden dokumentarischen Interpretation von Kinderzeichnungen aus Ghana und Deutschland wird deutlich, wie sich die Zeichnenden zu (sozio-)kulturell spezifischen Erwartungen einerseits und zu kulturübergreifenden Entwicklungsanforderungen anderseits positionieren. Damit gelingt sowohl ein Einblick in die kindliche Perspektive auf Entwicklungs- und Sozialisationsprozesse als auch in kulturell spezifische Normierungen, welche diese Prozesse rahmen.

Authors: Sharavii Victoria B. , Shnayder Natalya A. , Sharavii Lada K. , Petrova Marina M. , Nasyrova Regina F.
Published: July 2021

An empty sella (ES), also known as an empty sella turcica (empty pituitary fossa) is defined as an intrasellar herniation of subarachnoid space within the sella which leads to flattening of the pituitary gland towards the posteroinferior wall. Purpose — to analyze studies of ES prevalence in the world. Methods — We carried out a systematic search in both Russian and English databases (E-library, PubMed, GoogleScholar, OxfordPress, ClinicalKeys) using keywords “empty sella”, “empty sella turcica”, “empty pituitary fossa”, “prevalence” and their combinations. The period of search: 2000-2020. It is also worth noting that earlier publications of historical interest were included in the review. Results — We have analyzed 23 studies. They can be roughly devided into two groups: the first group – screening studies of ES, the second group – targeted studies of ES.
DEEP LEARNING TECHNOLOGYFOR VIDEOFRAME PROCESSING IN FACE SEGMENTATION ON MOBILE DEVICES
Authors: Ruvinskaya Victoria M. , Timkov Yurii Y.
Published: July 2021

The aim of the research is to reduce the frame processing time for face segmentation on videos on mobile devices using deep learning technologies. The paper analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of existing segmentation methods, as well as their applicability to various tasks. The existing real-time realizations of face segmentation in the most popular mobile applications, which provide the functionality for adding visual effects to videos, were compared. As a result, it was determined that the classical segmentation methods do not have a suitable combination of accuracy and speed, and require manual tuning for a particular task, while the neural network-based segmentation methods determine the deepfeatures automatically and have high accuracy with an acceptablespeed. The method based on convolutional neural networks is chosen for use because, in addition to the advantages of other methods based on neural networks, it does not require such a significant amount of computing resources during its execution. A review of existing convolutional neural networks for segmentation was held, based on which the DeepLabV3+ network was chosen as having sufficiently high accuracy and being optimized for work on mobile devices. Modifications were made to the structure of the selected network to match the task of two classes segmentation and to speed up the work on devices with low performance. 8-bit quantization was appliedto the values processed by the network for further acceleration. The network was adapted to the task of face segmentation by transfer learningperformed on a setof face images from the COCO dataset. Based on the modified and additionally trained segmentation model, a mobile app was created to record video with real-time visual effects, which applies segmentation to separately addeffects on two zones -the face (color filters, brightness adjustment, animated effects) and the background (blurring, hiding, replacement with another image). The time of frames processing in the application was tested on mobile devices with different technical characteristics. We analyzed the differences in testing results for segmentation using the obtained modeland segmentation using the normalized cuts method. The comparison reveals a decrease of frame processing time on the majority of devices with a slight decrease of segmentation accuracy.
Scientia Fidei – Science or Life?
Authors:   University of Szczecin, Sienkiewicz Edward
Published: July 2021

A particular aspect of theological knowledge, which arises from the intellectual search based on faith, is the exceptionally favorable opportunity it provides to overcome the antimonies of science and life. After all, theology not only engages reason and faith but also the will and love. On this basis, scientia fidei (science of faith) claims to make sense of everything, meaning of wisdom, at the center of which can be found truth and life, which both accord with it. Moreover, any systematic reflection on faith should take place within specific context that is understood as its basic challenge. This does not mean that it is possible to evaluate or correct the faith according to so-called “life experience”, but rather that life can be ordered according to faith. In other words, any interest in human agere (act) should not lose sight of esse (being). From this point of view, science of faith should not only resolve the tension between rational knowing and mystery, but also protect against one-sidedness and superficiality through competent and particular knowledge that defines who man is and determines how he should act. A utilitarian approach to empirical science as well as contemporary philosophy, which does not consider wisdom and the question of truth, is incompetence in this regard.
Evaluación financiera de la industria del cemento, cal y yeso en Colombia (2014-2019)
Authors: Rivera Godoy Jorge Alberto , Trejos Pérez Carlos Andrés , Quevedo Suárez José Luis
Published: July 2021

La investigación reportada en el presente artículo tiene como objetivo evaluar el desempeño financiero de la industria del cemento, cal y yeso en Colombia en el lapso 2014-2019, empleando como metodología el análisis estático y de tendencias de indicadores contables y de gestión de valor que miden su crecimiento, eficiencia, eficacia, efectividad, valor económico agregado (EVA) y valor de mercado agregado (VMA).

Se encuentra que este sector aumenta sus ventas y activos, pero reduce su utilidad neta; es efectivo en el logro de utilidades, siguiendo la orientación cambiante de la eficacia en el control de erogaciones, que es amplificada por un apalancamiento financiero positivo. No obstante, destruye EVA en los últimos cuatro años, causado por el deterioro del rendimiento después de impuestos del activo neto operacional que fue superado por el costo de capital.

Estos hallazgos pueden complementarse con estudios para grupos homogéneos en edad, tamaño y naturaleza jurídica.

Trees as bioindicators of environmental pollution and its impact on wood chemical composition
Authors: Teacă Carmen-Alice
Published: July 2021

Trees provide one of the most versatile biomass resources for many applications, namely wood. The chemical composition of wood determines its properties, being of real significance for its further capitalization, and depending on many factors. In nature, trees’ biomass is subjected to considerable pollution stress with further alteration of their normal growth conditions. Some correlations have been established between wood’s chemical composition and its further exploitation accordingly to particular circumstances of climate changes and pollution. The content of the main structural polymers from wood, cellulose and lignin, as well other components undergoes notable changes under the influence of pollution phenomena.
Polylactic acid (PLA): Improve it, use it, and dump it faster

Published: July 2021

Today, many people enjoy an easy lifestyle. However, this comfort has come with a price because of plastic that is thrown away after a single use. As such, governments around the world have pushed for biodegradable plastics to be produced, especially for food packaging, and these can be easily seen in supermarkets, for example. Using plastic for only one time has resulted in environmental pollution. To solve this problem, polylactic acid (PLA) has been introduced as an alternative bio-based plastic to replace artificial petroleum-based plastics. PLA comes from renewable resources and is biodegradable under certain conditions. Furthermore, the development of the properties of PLA could solve problems related to its weakness in packaging applications. This editorial proposes expansion of the property attributes of PLA to include hygienic character, through the addition of antibacterial agents. This can be done by introducing two alternative approaches for waste management: PLA recycling and degradation. However, some key research is still needed to improve the properties and waste management of PLA relative to the effectiveness of its reprocessing and acceleration of its (bio)degradation.
Radial variation in bonding performance of preservative-treated wood within Pinus elliottii trees and its relationships with wood density and adhesive penetration
Authors: Hu La , Qin Lizhe , Wu Dongshan , Xu Huilan , Yang Zhangqi
Published: July 2021

Pinus elliottii wood from different radial locations within trees was used to prepare two-layer preservative-treated wood joints with alkaline copper quaternary preservative and emulsion polymer isocyanates (EPI) or resorcinol-phenol-formaldehyde (RPF) adhesives. The radial variations in shear strength and wood failure percentage were analyzed. Radial variations in wood density and average penetration depth (AP) of adhesives were investigated to establish relationships between shear strengths and characteristics of bonded joints. The shear strengths of EPI- and RPF-bonded joints showed similar increasing trends from pith to bark, and they varied in ranges of 2.92 to 8.13 MPa and 2.03 to 7.12 MPa, respectively. The wood failure percentage of EPI joints (93% to 100%) had no significant differences in all the radial locations, but that of RPF joints (60% to 100%) showed a clear decreasing trend from pith to bark. High positive linear correlations were found between the shear strengths and wood density, and Pearson’s correlation coefficients for EPI and RPF were 0.934 (p < 0.01) and 0.931 (p < 0.01), respectively. Wood density is a very important factor influencing radial variations of bonding strengths. The correlation between the AP and shear strength was not significant at the 0.05 level.
Near-Fatal Spice Intoxication of a Toddler

Published: July 2021

Synthetic cannabinoids are a heterogenous group of novel, legally regulated psychoactive substances that can result in broad, multisystemic, dangerous effects. Despite growing literature regarding synthetic cannabinoid toxicity, little is known about the extent of these effects in young children. Caregivers of drug-endangered children may not provide an accurate history of exposure when children present with symptoms of intoxication, and lack of swift detection on routine urine drug screens may further obscure and delay the diagnosis. Clinical recognition carries forensic relevance that may support interventions to aid in protecting vulnerable children. We describe a case of near-fatal child maltreatment due to supervisory neglect resulting from ingestion of an increasingly common synthetic cannabinoid. Furthermore, we highlight clinical findings that should increase a physician’s index of suspicion for synthetic cannabinoid toxicity, even in the absence of a history of exposure.
The Role of C-reactive Protein in Patient Risk Stratification and Treatment
Authors: Arroyo-Espliguero Ramón , Viana-Llamas María C , Silva-Obregón Alberto , Avanzas Pablo
Published: July 2021

Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease. Several circulating inflammatory markers have been proposed for clinical use due to their ability to predict future cardiovascular events and may be useful for identifying people at high risk who might benefit from specific treatment to reduce this risk. Moreover, the identification of new therapeutic targets will allow the development of drugs that can help reduce the high residual risk of recurrence of cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease. The clinical benefits of reducing recurrent major cardiovascular events recently shown by canakinumab and colchicine have renewed the cardiology community’s interest in inflammation as an aetiopathogenic mechanism for atherosclerosis. This review explores the use of C-reactive protein, which is the most frequently studied biomarker in this context; the concept of residual risk in primary and secondary cardiovascular prevention; and the current recommendations in international guidelines regarding the role of this inflammatory biomarker in cardiovascular risk stratification.
Publicidad, política y educación: mecanismos para el florecimiento de las virtudes cívicas
Authors: Rojas-Villamil Héctor David
Published: July 2021

La publicidad tiene por objeto la persuasión, la política el ejercicio del poder y la educación la búsqueda de la verdad o el florecimiento de virtudes de la comunidad cognoscente. La publicidad política es una forma de comunicación en la que estas tres dimensiones se traslapan promoviendo fines y valores que pueden entrar en serias tensiones. En este artículo se argumenta que la publicidad política, como práctica comunicativa que afecta significativamente el ambiente epistémico en el que se ejerce la decisión democrática, está sujeta a unos estándares éticos que la orientan a fortalecer las virtudes cívicas. Se adopta como metodología un análisis axiológico y conceptual para proponer, con base en juicios de valor, unos límites éticos a la publicidad política.
La politología es una fenomenología de lo político. Reflexiones alrededor de la esencia de lo político de Julien Freund
Authors: Fonseca Juan David
Published: July 2021

En el presente artículo se explica a partir de lo expresado por Julien Freund en La esencia de lo político, la contradictoria relación que se entabla entre las utopías políticas planteadas por algunas filosofías, y la acción política sujeta a los aspectos invariables de lo político. Asimismo, se analiza el vínculo entre filosofía y política, demostrando cómo los juicios políticos pertenecen más al ámbito de la opinión que de la epistemología. Finalmente, se ofrecen algunas consideraciones expuestas por Freund, en lo que concierne a la actividad propia de la politología, entendiéndola como estudio de la esencia de lo político.
Apuestas, tensiones y posibilidades del concepto de gobernanza (sin adjetivos) en el ámbito colombiano
Authors: Rojas-Delgado Jorge
Published: July 2021

Este artículo está orientado a reflexionar en torno al concepto de gobernanza y sus posibilidades de implementación en el ámbito colombiano, entendiendo que, aunque ha sido abordado de manera incipiente y dotado de un sinnúmero de adjetivos que consiguen desdibujar su alcance, puede llegar a  profundizar la calidad de la acción pública, el agenciamiento de recursos, la coordinación de actores, así como la promoción de valores democráticos. Esta aproximación busca entonces que el potencial generativo de la gobernanza no responda a un simple arreglo teórico o refinamiento metodológico que omita el diseño institucional, los escenarios políticos, las dinámicas sociales y los contextos locales que logran muchas veces quebrar el ámbito de lo prescrito para presentarse desde lo recursivo e inédito. Es así como finalmente se apuesta por la noción de gobernanza sin adjetivos, en donde se promueva una cultura performativa que repolitice las distintas esferas de la vida social, fortalezca los espacios de participación ciudadana y reconozca la pluralidad de intereses, en un intento por dirimir las tensiones, incrementar el control ciudadano y elaborar alternativas viables con el fin de promover el bien común y la (co)responsabilidad alrededor de las necesidades más sentidas y los retos más acuciosos.

Beim Predatory Publishing (dt.: „räuberische Veröffentlichung“) geht es um den systematischen Betrug beim Publizieren von Forschungsergebnissen in wissenschaftlichen Fachzeitschriften, die hierbei allerdings nicht an seriöse Anbieter geraten, sondern an Herausgeber mit betrügerischer Absicht. Hierbei werden zwar zum Teil hohe Publikationsgebühren von den Forschenden bezahlt und im Gegenzug werden von Seiten der Herausgeber auch die standardisierten Maßnahmen zur Veröffentlichung versprochen, jedoch wird gerade auf die Qualitätsprüfung der Ergebnisse in Form eines Peer Review verzichtet und alle Ergebnisse werden ungeprüft veröffentlicht. So hat jeder die Chance jeglichen Inhalt in einem dieser Journale zu publizieren. Im Beitrag wird auch die Rolle der wissenschaftlichen Bibliotheken thematisiert und mögliche Maßnahmen, die diese treffen können, um betrügerisches Verhalten beim wissenschaftlichen Publizieren aufzudecken.

Authors:   The Korean Society of Special Education, Lee Surae , Bang Myongye , Jia Hongxiao
Published: July 2021

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a school-wide social emotional learning program integrated with art on the class participation of elementary school students with intellectual disabilities and the emotional intelligence of students without disabilities. The subjects were 31 students (three students with intellectual disabilities and 28 students without disabilities) from an elementary school located in Gyeonggi Province. The one-group pretest-posttest design was applied. The school-wide social emotional learning program integrated with art was organized with five elements of social emotional abilities: self-awareness, self-management, social recognition, personal relationship, and responsible decision making. A total of 28 students without disabilities evaluated the class participation of the three students with intellectual disabilities, in addition the emotional intelligence of students without disabilities was measured by a self-report instrument. Dependent samples t-test was implemented for analyzing the data. The research results were as follows. First, the class participation of the three students with intellectual disabilities was statistically improved significantly after they participated in the program. Second, there was no statistically significant difference between the pretest total scores and the posttest total scores of the emotional intelligence of the 28 students without disabilities. On the contrary, the subscale scores of their emotional expression and emotional utilization were statistically improved significantly after they participated in the program. Implications of this study as well as suggestions for future studies were discussed.

Affirmative policies arise from the need to favor some sectors of society that have suffered or continue to suffer from the effects of discrimination, injustice, racism, or exclusion; among these, in Special Education, students with gifted characteristics have become invisible to teachers, guardians, and society in general. However, the trinomial gifted black female presents threefold invisibility in our world. This study analyzes the factors that trigger the invisibility of gifted black women in Brazilian schools.  We use descriptive statistics to analyze the microdata collected by surveys, evaluations, and exams carried out by the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research.
Microbial analysis of sewage sludge shows closer monitoring needed for landfill waste
Authors: Dregulo Andrei Mikhailovich , Shapkin Vasilii Mikhailovich , Kichko Arina Alexandrovna
Published: July 2021

A method of high-throughput sequencing of gene libraries was used to identify the microbial communities in samples of sewage sludge at waste treatment facilities in Saint Petersburg, Russia. It was established that the waste had a complicated taxonomic structure and consisted of two main domains: Archaea (8.4% average) and Bacteria (77.6% average). The Archaea domain included three phyla (methanogens): Euryarchaeota, Crenarchaeota and Parvarchaeota. The Bacteria domain was represented by 49 phyla, including Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Cyanobacteria, Planctomycetes, Gemmatimonadetes, Acidobacteria and Verrucomicrobia. Up to 2.8% share of methanogens in sewage sludge deposited in landfills for around 15 years indicated the ongoing destruction of organic matter. In addition, ten pathogenic microorganisms were detected, including Clostridium and Mycobacterium. The results indicated that the national regulatory requirements for waste in Russia need to be reviewed in terms of compiling a list of standardised indicators for environmental monitoring of landfill sites.

Introduction: Behçet's disease defined by Turkish dermatologist Hulusi Behçet is an inflammatory disease of unknown etiology and characterized by recurrent oral aphthous ulcers, genital ulcers, uveitis and skin lesions. We aimed to evaluate hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus and human immunodeficiency virus seroprevalence in Behçet's Disease.

Material and Method: Patients diagnosed with Behçet’s diseaseand followed up by the dermatology outpatient clinic during 12-years period between July 2008 and July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Demographic datas and HBsAg, anti-HBs, anti-HCV, Anti-HIV results of the patients were recorded.

Results: 359 patients with Behçet’s disease were been evaluated in this study. Of these patients, 189 (52.6%) were female, 170 (47.4%) were male and the mean age was 37.7±12.3 years. HBsAg was positive in 6 (1.6%) patients and Anti-Hbs ab in 82 (7.7%) patients. Anti HIV ab was negative in all patients. Anti-HCV antibodies were found positive in only one case (0.2%), and this was confirmed by testing for hepatitis C virus-ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA). HCV RNA was negative in this patient.

Conclusion: When compared with the general population, seropositivity rates were not detected to be high in Behçet's patients. In fact, the immunity rates were found very low. Based on such a finding, it was concluded that screening is required due to increasing immunosupressive treatments today, and individuals should be vaccinated in cases where HBV indicators are negative.In the other studies, investigating the entity, seropositivity rates have been found similar to those in the population. Considering that serological data show regional differences, we thought that, our study will contribute to the literature both national and international grades due to large patient population in our region.

Purpose: Retroperitoneal (RP) abscess is a rare condition with poor prognosis, unclear etiology, characteristics, and treatment. This study compared transperitoneal and RP approach methods in the treatment of RP abscess. Methods: There were 45 patients with RP abscess diagnosed at Inha University Hospital from January 2014 to August 2018, of which 22 patients with 2 RP zones and systemic inflammatory response syndrome were included. Characteristics, etiology, laboratory and radiological findings, surgical technique, complications, and total number of hospital days were examined. Patients were assigned to either the transperitoneal (TP) or RP approach group. Results: There were 22 patients with RP abscess who were treated with surgical drainage using either the TP (n = 13) or RP (n = 9) approach. There was no difference in characteristics between the 2 groups. The number of reinterventions in the RP group (n = 6) was more than in the TP group (n = 4; p = 0.02). Mortality in the TP group (n = 5) was higher than in the RP group (n = 1; p < 0.01). The total mean number of hospital days in the RP group (mean: 76, range: 29-180 days) was more than in the TP group (mean: 58, range: 18-280 days, p = 0.03). Conclusion: RP abscess requires rapid drainage using the TP or RP approach. Reintervention events and number of hospital days in the RP group was greater than the TP group; however, mortality in the RP group was lower than in the TP group.

Purpose: The outcomes of non-trauma patients requiring intra-abdominal gauze packing for the management of uncontrollable hemorrhage following surgery, and the evaluation of survival risk factors were examined. Methods: Data from patients who underwent intra-abdominal gauze packing to control bleeding during abdominal surgery between September 2012 and March 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Results: A total of 28 patients were included in the study population analysis. There were 9 patients who died during hospitalization. One patient died as a result of uncontrolled bleeding. In spite of gauze packing, 2 patients who had increasing blood transfusion requirements (> 4 packs/4 hours) were found to have arterial bleeding. Univariate analysis for hospital death showed that immunocompromised status, emergency surgery, a thrombocytopenic state prior to initial surgery, and a longer duration until gauze removal had a negative association with survival outcomes. Among these factors, only time to gauze removal > 36 hours was identified as an independent risk factor for survival outcome in the multivariate analysis. Conclusions: Gauze packing could be considered as an effective method for the management of uncontrolled hemorrhage, in non-trauma patients. In cases of persistent bleeding after gauze packing, arterial bleeding should be suspected. Gauze removal after > 36 hours may indicate a poor survival outcome.
LINGUISTIC SCHOLIA TO THE UKRAINIAN TRANSLATION OF THE 50th AND 90th PSALMS
Authors: Kozhushnyi Oleh
Published: July 2021

The author of the article claims that the translation of the Psalter into the contemporary Ukrainian literary language and its comprehensive study remain urgent for the domestic scientific and theological community despite the individual attempts to implement this project. The correlation of the Hebrew and the Greek texts as well as their adequate reproduction in the Ukrainian language, taking into account the active centuries-old use of the Slavic translation is a problem for the contemporary translators. Pointing out a practical way to solve this problem, the author proposes his own linguistic scholia to the Masoretic, Greek and Slavic texts of the most frequently used Psalms 50 and 90 and also offers a version of their translation. Analyzing the original texts, the researcher pays special attention to the basic poetic principle of the biblical poetry ̶ parallelism. He also analyzes individual lexemes, expressions and difficult-to-understand passages, which have repeatedly become the subject of professional discussion, and gives possible options for their translation. The material presented in the article will be useful not only for the Ukrainian specialists in the biblical studies, but also for philologists-translators, literary scholars, ̶ all those who are interested in hermeneutics and exegesis of the biblical texts.
Laparoscopic dissection in children with celiac artery compression syndrome

Published: July 2021

BACKGROUND: A cause of abdominal pain in children may be compression stenosis of the celiac trunk (Dunbars syndrome). This disease occurs when the median arcuate ligament of the diaphragm compresses the celiac trunk, thereby creating compression stenosis, causing the arterial hemodynamics in the artery to suffer and provide adequate blood circulation to the abdominal cavity organs. Medical statistics indicate that 10% to 15% of children and adolescents suffering from chronic abdominal pain have compression stenosis of the celiac trunk.
AIM: This study aims to improve the diagnostic results and identify the indications for the surgical treatment of children with compression stenosis of the celiac trunk.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: From 2015 to 2020 at the N.F. Filatov Childrens Hospital, 64 patients, aged 4 to 17 years underwent surgical treatment for compression stenosis of the celiac trunk. There are 42 boys (66%) and 22 girls (34%). The leading clinical manifestation in all patients was abdominal pain. Associated surgical pathology was observed in 34 of them. The diagnosis was based on anamnesis, examination, ultrasound examination with Doppler and celiac trunk blood flow measurements, multispiral computed tomography, and angiography.
RESULTS: After completing the examination, 61 patients underwent laparoscopic decompression of the celiac trunk, and three children were operated on using the laparotomic approach. In all cases, the leading cause of compression stenosis of the celiac trunk was the median arcuate ligament of the diaphragm combined with the neurofibrous tissue of the celiac plexus. The average duration of the operation was 50 minutes. Intraoperative blood loss did not exceed 530 ml. One conversion completed. There were no postoperative complications in the early postoperative period. The patients were discharged in satisfactory condition. The control examination was conducted in the period from six months to three years. In 97% of patients, clinical symptoms of abdominal ischemia were not detected.
CONCLUSION: Our experience indicates the possibility of diagnosing compression stenosis of the celiac trunk in children at early disease stages and laparoscopic treatment success of patients with this disease.
