Authors: Milyukov V. E. , Motalov V. G. , Sharifova H. M.
Published: December 2018

The purpose of the work - to identify patterns of changes in the morphofunctional organization of the vascular bed of the liver at different stages of development of strangulational and obturating acute small bowel obstruction (ASBO). Material and methods. The study was performed on 33 adult mongrel dogs of both sexes weighing 17-20 kg. The morphology of the liver in normal was studied on 2 (two) of those dogs. Twelve animals were simulated with a strangulational ASBO. In 12 animals, a low obturating ASBO was simulated. A morphometric method was used to assess the change in the volume of the vascular bed in terms of the degree of change in the area of the vessels per unit area. Results. In the dynamics of the development of the disease, we revealed patterns of changes in the morphofunctional organization of the vascular bed of the liver. Conclusions. In the process of formation of obturating ASBO, in spite of the absence of clinical manifestations of acute intestinal obstruction, the emergence of a basis for the development of polyorganic insufficiency has already been observed from 2 days.

Authors: TULUMBACI Fatih , SERT Tuğba , ERKMEN ALMAZ Merve
Published: December 2018

Ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is a group of congenital
anomalies characterized by defects of two or more ectoderm-derived structures,
such as hair, teeth and nails. The aim of this paper is to describe the
characteristics and prosthodontic treatment of three cases with ED. Case 1: A
6-year-old boy was brought to our clinic with complaint of tooth ageneses. In
clinical and radiographical examination, patient presented anodontia of
permanent teeth. Medical history revealed that the child has cutaneous
dyshidrosis and hypohidrosis. Based on the findings, the patient was diagnosed
as Anhydrotic ED. To provide function, fonation and aesthetics, a complete
denture for lower jaw and partial denture for upper jaw were made.  Case 2-3: Two brothers (aged 8, 9) were broght to our clinic
with complaints of dental caries, dental pain and missing teeth. They had a
medical history including hypohidrosis and problems with thermoregulation, and
both of the patients presented with oligodontia. Based on the findings,
brothers were diagnosed as Familial ED. Firstly, extractions and restorations
were completed after which partial dentures were made to gain desired function.
It is important to note that early prosthetic intervention gives oppurtunity to
the child to develop physically, emotionally and socially like other healthy
individuals.

Published: December 2018

Objective: In  diabetes  mellitus (DM) type 2, there  is  a  very  high  risk  of developing cardiovascular  (CV) events.  We aimed to study the total CV risk of the indigenous people of  Kyrgyzstan with  impaired carbohydrate metabolism (DM type 2 and impaired glucose tolerance, IGT), depending on  the region of residence (low and high altitudes), and to  develop targeted preventive measures.

Methods: Overall, 248 families (992 people) in the Naryn (high-altitude) (study group) and 260 families (1041 people) in the Chui region (low-altitude) (control group) were surveyed and  363 people with DM type 2 and IGT were identified, of which: 138 people in the study group and 225 people in the control group.

Results: In patients with DM type 2 and IGT, moderate CV risk was found in the low-altitude and high-altitude in men and women aged 46–65 years, the  leading risk factor in men is BMI&qt;25 kg/m2; in women, hypertension (HT)  and hypercholesterolemia. A high risk of  CV  complications was detected only in the low-altitude in men aged 46–65 years, the leading risk factor is HT. High and very high risk of CV complications  are rarely found both in the low-altitude and in the high-altitude.

Conclusion: During stratification of total CV risk, 363 people with carbohydrate metabolism disorders (DM type 2 and IGT) of  2033 native population living in 2  regions  of Kyrgyzstan revealed features of the total CV risk: BMI&qt;25kg/m2 for men of  high- altitude  and  low-altitude,  HT  and hypercholesterolemia  for  women of high-altitude, and for men, low-altitude only HT. Both in the high-altitude and in the low-altitude, low and moderate CV risk are predominantly expressed, and high and very high CV risk are rare.

Published: December 2018

O IPTU tem destaque na receita tributária dos municípios de grande e médio porte, contudo não é fácil o poder público municipal ter o controle no recolhimento, devido à necessidade de organização, falta do controle no cadastramento dos imóveis e a constante atualização do valor venal. O presente trabalho possui o objetivo geral de descrever o recolhimento do Imposto Predial e Territorial Urbano no município de Quixadá entre 2011 a 2015. Metodologicamente, a pesquisa se desenvolveu pelo método indutivo, análise qualitativa e quantitativa de dados, quanto aos objetivos específicos à pesquisa se caracteriza como descritiva. O delineamento utilizado para a coleta de dados é caraterizado como bibliográfica e documental. Ao decorrer deste trabalho teve-se como resultado que: no período de cinco anos ocorreu um crescimento em média de 28,27% a.a., no recolhimento do IPTU. O aumento do recolhimento atribui-se ao esforço por parte da Gestão Pública em mecanismos mais eficientes para o cumprimento da meta arrecadatória e pela implementação da planta genérica. Conclui-se que apesar de ter um crescimento entre os exercícios analisados, existe uma defasagem no cadastramento de imóveis, o que gera uma redução de recolhimento do recolhimento do imposto.

COLLECTION AND TAXATION: ANALYSIS OF THE COLLECTION OF PROPERTY TAX IN THE MUNICIPALITY OF QUIXADÁ FROM 2011 TO 2015

ABSTRACT

Property tax has featured in the tax revenue of large and medium-sized cities, yet it is not easy the municipal government to have control in the payment due to the need of organization, lack of control in the registration of real estate and the constant updating of market value. The present work has the general objective of describing the collection of the Urban Land and Territorial Tax in the municipality of Quixadá between 2011 and 2015. Methodologically, the research was developed by the inductive method, qualitative and quantitative data analysis, regarding the specific objectives of the research characterized as descriptive. The design used for the collection of data is characterized as bibliographical and documentary. In the course of this work, the result was that: in the period of five years there was an average growth of 28.27% per year in the collection of the IPTU. The increase in collection is attributed to the efforts of the Public Management in more efficient mechanisms for meeting the collection target and the implementation of the generic plant. It is concluded that despite having an increase between the years analyzed, there is a delay in the registration of real estate, which generates a reduction of tax collection.

Published: December 2018

El presente trabajo es una reflexión a partir de los aportes del Dr. Gabriel Ugas y Edgar Morin, referentes a la complejidad aplicada al campo de las Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TICs).

     Para ello se analizan distintos aportes que se han realizado en este campo y, a partir de estos, se compara con la realidad educativa de las escuelas en Venezuela, específicamente en una escuela ubicada en un barrio del oeste de Caracas.

     El interés por el tema se debe a que, en el quehacer educativo, sobre todo de la escuela básica, se percibe que el uso de la informática, como herramienta educativa, está teniendo cada vez más un espacio bien importante, por cuanto que son los mismos estudiantes quienes interpelan al educador y hacen que este sienta el imperativo de actualizarse en el uso de estas herramientas.

     A pesar de ello, también sabemos que, en muchas escuelas, la presencia de una sala de informática no es más que una “figura decorativa” para vender la imagen de que es una institución excelente y al día con los avances contemporáneos.

     Interesa presentar en este espacio de reflexión, cómo el estudiante construye su conocimiento, una vez que entra en el mundo y lógica de la informática, especialmente en la lectura hipertextual, a la que es invitado una vez que se conecta al ciberespacio.

Authors: Reategui Palomino Katya , Leal Carrasco Bernardo
Published: December 2018

Fue validado un método de HPLC-UV-visible para la determinación de los pesticidas Aldrin, 4,4´-DDT y Dieldrin en agua. Para ello se empleó una columna C18 en fase reversa, una fase móvil que consistió en una mezcla acetonitrilo/agua, (v/v = 85:15) a una velocidad de flujo de 1 mL/min en forma isocrática, un volumen de inyección de 50 mL y un sistema de detección UV empleando dos longitudes de onda (Aldrin y Dieldrin a 220 nm y 4,4´-DDT a 238 nm). La validación del método se realizó determinando, la exactitud, la precisión, linealidad y rango lineal, límite de detección (LOD) y límite de cuantificación (LOQ). El método estudiado exhibe buena linealidad en el rango de 0,27 - 62 mg/Kg para Dieldrin, 0,14 - 42 mg/Kg para 4,4'-DDT y 0,34 – 81 mg/Kg para Aldrin, con un R2 mayor a 0,996. El porcentaje de recobro para dos concentraciones (2 y 20 mg/Kg) de estos tres pesticidas está en el rango de 91 – 104% con una desviación estándar relativa de 0,8 – 8%. El LOQ de los tres pesticidas, usando este método, es de 93, 95 y 135 ng/g para Dieldrin, Aldrin y 4,4'-DDT respectivamente.

Published: December 2018

La hipertensión es una enfermedad compleja y multifacética, con muchos factores contribuyentes. Con el objetivo de identificar los factores de riesgo de HTA en adolescentes, se realizó un estudio descriptivo, transversal en la Unidad Educativa San Rafael de Honorato Vásquez en 92 individuos entre 12 y 18 años de ambos sexos. Se registraron la edad, sexo, peso, talla, consumo de alcohol, tabaco, ingesta de grasas saturadas, actividad física y antecedentes de HTA como de enfermedad prevalente. Se utilizó el test AUDIT para evaluar consumo de alcohol. Además; se midió la presión arterial y se extrajo una muestra sanguínea. La prevalencia de HTA fue del 10,9% (Mujeres: 2,2%; hombres: 8,7%), de los cuales el 2,2% presentó sobrepeso, el 4,3% tenía algún familiar con HTA, el 9,8% ingería grasas saturadas una vez al día, el 7,6% realizaba actividad física ligera y el 10,9% no eran fumadores, pero si presentaban consumo de alcohol de bajo riesgo. Además; el 9,8% presentó valores de glucosa en el límite, colesterol (1,1%) y LDL-colesterol (1,1%), HDL-colesterol disminuido 10,9% y triglicéridos elevados 6,5%

No se observó asociación significativa entre estas variables y la presencia de HTA (p>0,05). La determinación de la presión arterial debe ser indagada intencionalmente en adolescentes que tienen riesgo de padecerla ya que su detección precoz y oportuna a temprana edad, pueden cambiar el curso de la enfermedad y evitar complicaciones futuras.

Many-Body Effects Determine the Local Hydration Structure of Cs+ in Solution
Authors: Zhuang Debbie , Riera Marc , Schenter Gregory K. , Fulton John , Lab Paesani
Published: December 2018

A systematic analysis of the hydration structure of Cs+ ions in solution is derived from simulations carried out using a series of molecular models built upon a hierarchy of approximate representations of many-body effects in ion-water interactions. It is found that a pairwise-additive model, commonly used in biomolecular simulations, provides poor agreement with experimental X-ray spectra, indicating an incorrect description of the underlying hydration structure. Although the agreement with experiment improves in simulations with a polarizable model, the predicted hydration structure is found to lack the correct sequence of water shells. Progressive inclusion of explicit many- body effects in the representation of Cs+-water interactions as well as account for nuclear quantum effects is shown to be necessary for quantitatively reproducing the experimental spectra. Besides emphasizing the importance of many-body effects, these results suggests that molecular models rigorously derived from many-body expansions hold promise for realistic simulations of aqueous solutions.
Influence of Brain Gangliosides on the Formation and Properties of Supported Lipid Bilayers for Binding Kinetics Studies
Authors: Jordan Luke , Wittenberg Nathan
Published: December 2018

This is a comprehensive study of the effects of the four major brain gangliosides (GM1, GD1b, GD1a, and GT1b) on the adsorption and rupture of phospholipid vesicles on SiO2 surfaces for the formation of supported lipid bilayer (SLB) membranes. Using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) we show that gangliosides GD1a and GT1b significantly slow the SLB formation process, whereas GM1 and GD1b have smaller effects. This is likely due to the net ganglioside charge as well as the positions of acidic sugar groups on ganglioside glycan head groups. Data is included that shows calcium can accelerate the formation of ganglioside-rich SLBs. Using fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) we also show that the presence of gangliosides significantly reduces lipid diffusion coefficients in SLBs in a concentration-dependent manner. Finally, using QCM-D and GD1a-rich SLB membranes we measure the binding kinetics of an anti-GD1a antibody that has similarities to a monoclonal antibody that is a hallmark of a variant of Guillain-Barre syndrome.
Cost Drivers for Food Retailers in Developed and Emerging Markets
Authors: Frolova V. B. , Khan T. F.
Published: December 2018

The subject of research is a set of methodological and practical aspects of assessing the cost factors of food companies. The study of the above factors is becoming relevant under the current conditions of environment instability and the necessity to stimulate investment, given the low elasticity of demand for products in this sector. The purpose of the research was to confirm the hypothesis of a variety of cost drivers that form the financial result of companies in a developed and emerging markets by an example of 39 food retailers in an emerging market and 48 companies in developed markets based on a system approach and the comparison method using elements of factor and correlationand-regression analysis. The research findings obtained are as follows: the choice of indicators for the regression analysis of cost factors mostly of a multiplicative type is substantiated; the research was carried out using the indicator of financial result less the tangible assets depreciation; to clarify the results of the research, the elements of the comparative analysis were applied, with the companies classified into four groups where Lenta and X5 were in the group of the most efficient companies of the first quantile, and Dixie fell into the group of the fourth quantile companies that had difficulty in generating their own funds; the cost drivers of food retailers in emerging and developed markets were identified. It is concluded that the cost driver of food retailers in developed markets is profitability of sales, and in emerging markets it is the share of capital inputs in sales revenues. It has been established that the growth rate of consumer consumption plays a key role in the retail market of all countries. At the same time, there is a market tendency to oust small companies by large players whose assets have a higher level of investment demand. The novelty of the research lies in using by the authors the EBITA profitability indicator in the regression model, where EBITA is the profit before tax, interest and intangible assets depreciation.
On the Development of the Innovation and Investment Market of Moscow Exchange and Provision of Tax Benefits in this Segment
Authors: Belomyttseva O. S.
Published: December 2018

The paper outlines the importance of the securities market for the financing of innovative companies. It summarizes works of foreign and Russian economists, including selected publications on the development of the innovation and investment market of the Moscow Exchange (IIM–MOEX). Both positive and negative implications of the access of innovative companies to public capital markets are identified. The purpose of the research was to investigate the innovation and investment market of the Moscow Exchange and opportunities for individual and institutional investors to obtain tax benefits in this segment. Based on the open data of the Moscow Exchange, the current state of the innovation and investment market has been analyzed. A number of problems have been identified including a limited number of issuers, lack of bonds and investment units, high entry barriers, low liquidity in this segment as well as likely market manipulation and fraud. The prospects for the IIM–MOEX development are outlined. The specifics of the long-term ownership of securities in the innovation sector are analyzed. It is noted that the benefit for long-term ownership of securities of the innovation sector is not popular and faces potential application difficulties. There are few securities eligible for its application (seven shares). The possibility of combining benefits for long-term ownership of the innovation sector securities with individual investment accounts as well as the new corporate bond coupon benefit was substantiated. Arguments are given in favor of the need to consider the benefit for long-term ownership of the innovation sector securities in interrelation with investment tax deductions in general and the benefit for long-term ownership of securities in particular. The areas of further research related to the IIM–MOEX studies and tax benefits for investors in this segment are determined.

Authors: Abramova M. A. , Dubova S. E. , Zakharovac O. V.
Published: December 2018

The subject of the research is the economic and organizational aspects of the regulatory mechanism for governing activities microfinance and credit cooperation institutions that can influence the domestic investment demand. The purposes of the paper were to analyze and evaluate the current mechanisms for regulation of microfinance and credit cooperation institutions as well as regulatory innovations of the Bank of Russia aimed at improving the microfinance market governance and, secondly, to develop proposals on how to increase the potential of the above institutions in order to stimulate the domestic investment demand. It is concluded that microfinance and credit cooperation institutions can influence the domestic investment demand and possess appropriate products and services; therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the regulatory mechanisms of their support to enable full participation of these institutions in boosting the domestic investment demand. The paper approves the Bank of Russia initiatives aimed at the development of microfinance institutions and the regulator’s desire to develop mechanisms for the proportional regulation of the microfinance sector, particularly those that stimulate the growth of the domestic investment demand. At the same time, subject to criticism is a number of regulatory initiatives that tend to limit the freedom and the initiative of microfinance and credit cooperation institutions and do not promote competition. The paper emphasizes the importance of strengthening the most important element of the regulatory mechanism, the one that governs the activity in a microfinance organization. The relevance of the research consists in the development of proposals aimed at the working out of mechanisms for the proportional regulation of microfinance institutions in the system of the financial market regulation.
The Impact of Financialization and Income Inequality on Economic Growth, Investment Processes and Innovation
Authors: Karayev A. K.
Published: December 2018

For the macroeconomic policy to be effective, macroeconomic models must take into account the interrelations between the financial and real sectors of the national economy. The subject of the research is the impact of financialization (expansion of the financial sector influence) and heterogeneity of investment decisions made by households and organizations on the inequality of income and wealth distribution as well as on household consumption and investment demand generated by organizations. The purpose of the research was to simulate the integrated influence and inter- influence of financialization of the economy leading to the following phenomena: an increase in the financial capabilities of economic agents, households and organizations and an increase in their debt; heterogeneity of decisions made by households (with account for different education levels) towards investment in their professional skill improvement, in particular through bank loans; heterogeneity of decisions made by organizations towards investment in expanding the existing production or mastering innovative product manufacturing; inequality in distribution of household incomes, components of aggregate demand in the economy, unemployment, etc. The research was carried out using an agent-oriented AB-SFC model with consistent flows and reserves that takes into account the specifics of investment behavior of economic agents (households and companies). The paper concludes that the financialization can contribute to the economic growth and the leverage and, accordingly, to the debt of economic agents and a higher volatility of macroeconomic aggregates such as aggregate demand components. The research finding also show that innovation and technological changes resulting from investment preferences of organizations and households can also, along with the financialization, aggravate the income inequality of households.

Published: December 2018

The article is devoted to the corporate culture of an educational institution as a factor in the success of its operations.

The quality of educational services, relationships in the teaching staff, the atmosphere of schools that meet the requirements of our time, the demands of the public, have a high reputation and are competitive in the educational market depends on the level of formation of corporate culture. However, the problem of the formation and development of corporate culture schools for a long time remained unnoticed today still at the periphery of research practices.

Today in Ukraine corporate culture has not been reflected in the regulatory legislation and education based on the general cultural level of society, morality, business practices, etc., whose condition is caused by the level of economic development. The management of corporate culture is open and clear enough for most school leaders, and therefore there is a need to disseminate information on the role of corporate culture, mechanisms of implementation and management of its formation.

The main structural elements of organizational culture seen in the mission, values, standards system to ensure the process of training, education and development of children; the attitude of teachers to the goals, objectives, results of work of educational organizations; communication and informal rules of behavior, choice of appropriate leadership styles, conditions for creativity teachers, traditions, rituals and ceremonies that are accepted in school; staff attitude to themselves as members of the teaching kolekyvu, opportunities for their personal development.

We believe that the culture of an educational institution should be considered first, as a system of collective values, norms and traditions of life common students and teaching staff, and secondly, as an integral characteristic of individual school community; Thirdly, as the most important factor of socialization of students.

A key step in the formation of corporate culture is to define the mission and vision of the educational institution. In the mission and goals of the institution should have reflected the basic values that are specified in the concept of school. An important role in the corporate culture of an educational institution plays a presence bright, charismatic personality of the head of school. The researchers emphasize that the most successful developing corporate culture in educational institutions, led by creative director are ready to innovate, informally linked to a function that can create a team which interact on an equal footing teachers, students their parents and the public.

Published: December 2018

Neste artigo, propomos o entrelaçamento das contribuições teóricas de intelectuais negras com o paradigma relacional da comunicação. Tomando como ponto de partida dois episódios de racismo envolvendo celebridades no Brasil em 2017 (o ataque à filha adotiva de Bruno Gagliasso e Giovanna Ewbank, e a repercussão negativa da palestra de Taís Araújo sobre o preconceito racial contra seus filhos), e também nossas vivências como pesquisadoras negras, exploramos os conceitos de interseccionalidade, desenvolvido por Kimberlé Crenshaw (1989), e de estrangeira de dentro (outsider within), desenvolvido por Patricia Hill Collins (2016), a fim de evidenciarmos como a visão interseccional pode contribuir para complexificar a análise de fenômenos comunicacionais numa sociedade marcada por desigualdades de raça e gênero.
