Published: September 2021

The global COVID-19 pandemic revealed the necessity for mobile and web-based solutions for a variety of medical processes, e.g., individual risk calculation, communication of health information and contact tracing. Many such solutions are provided in form of open source software. However, there are major obstacles to the sustainable long-term continuation of such projects. As the topic of sustainability strategies is complex, a classification would be useful to help new projects to identify relevant sustainability factors. Based on a literature review a classification for long-term success of open source software was created. This paper presents a classification focusing on five unique categories: (1) structural decision, (2) revenue generation, (3) user focus, (4) openness and (5) community building. It was developed within the NUM-COMPASS project, focusing content-wise on pandemic apps and structure-wise on open-source provision. We provide some insights into the community building dimension by discussing factors that go into building sustainable communities.

Recently, inflammatory and regulatory mechanisms that are involved in the onset and progression of angiopathies in diabetes mellitus (DM), including diabetic kidney disease (DKD), have been studied. In this study, we assessed the levels of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) and inflammatory markers in patients with type 2 DM and different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We investigated 64 patients with type 2 DM aged 34-84 years. The results showed significant changes in the levels of FGF-23, tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), C-reactive protein (CRP), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) with the progression of CKD in patients with type 2 diabetes. Multiple regression analysis demonstrated the presence of an independent interconnection between serum levels of FGF-23 and creatinine.

The article presents the features of therapy for type 2 diabetes mellitus in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. The study involved 21 male patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and moderate obstructive sleep apnea, refusing from CPAP therapy. Depending on the prescribed therapy, we formed 2 groups of patients. Group 1 included patients to whom vildagliptin was added to metformin therapy (n=11), group 2 - patients to whom empagliflozin was added to metformin therapy (n=10). The patients were followed up for 6 months. They underwent polysomnographic monitoring and assessment of the HbA1c level twice. It was found that while taking a combination of metformin and empagliflozin, patients demonstrated an improvement in the compensation of carbohydrate metabolism, a decrease in the body mass index, a decrease in the severity of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, an increase in the degree of blood oxygen saturation. There was also an increase in the total sleep time, an improvement in the sleep efficiency indicator, and a normalization of the sleep structure, as well as improvement of basic polysomnographic indicators.

Published: September 2021

Relevance. Fighting with risk factors (RFs) of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) at a young age significantly reduces the risks of future CVD and death. The influence of cardiovascular risk factors is significant in students due to the significant tension of all body reserves in the learning process. Purpose of the study. To analyze the prevalence of CVD RFs, as well as their combination among students in Bishkek for targeted prevention of complications. Patients and methods. We examined 295 students of 1-3 courses of Bishkek (Kyrgyz Republic) with the study of anthropometric and behavioral RFs. Results. Among the students, a high prevalence of, first of all, behavioral (low consumption of vegetables and fruits, low physical activity), and then anthropometric (overweight, obesity) CVD RFs and their frequent combination was revealed. 2 or more RFs were revealed comparatively more often among students of Kyrgyz State University (KSU) and Kyrgyz State Technical University (KSTU) than among students of Kyrgyz State Medical Academy (KSMA). Conclusion. Timely and targeted prevention of CVD in university students of Bishkek should be started already in the first year, first of all, to recommend the use of a sufficient amount of vegetables and fruits and increase physical activity.

Published: September 2021

COVID-19 infection causes many difficulties for the medical community around the world. In addition to its therapeutic problems, it can create situations with high medical and legal risks for a doctor who has a certain medical responsibility in preventing the spread of infection in a pandemic. In fact, this new infection imposes many specific obligations on all medical organizations and, first of all, on the Emergency medical service. In the present article, we analyzed in chronological order the orders and instructions issued in the context of the COVID-19 epidemic in St. Petersburg, and studied the dynamics of measures used to prevent the spread of infection and to protect health workers as the urgency and complexity of the situation increase. The first experience of ambulance doctors in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic showed the need to comply with all prescribed measures of individual and collective protection to minimize infection transmission and prevent medical and legal risks.

Authors: Galstyan S.G. , Timofeev E.V.
Published: September 2021

The article presents an overview of modern approaches to the identification and justification of the choice of management tactics for patients with malocclusion and crowding of teeth. The questions of the etiology and pathogenesis of malocclusion that occurred both in early childhood and in older age are highlighted. There is a high prevalence of malocclusion in the population, which creates a number of medical problems (tooth erasability and mobility, changes in the upper-mandibular joint, abnormalities of the biomechanics of the lower jaw), but also a number of aesthetic and psychological problems. The classification of malocclusion anomalies is given. The article describes the currently relevant visualization methods for diagnosing malocclusion, which allow us to assess the severity of changes and adequately select the optimal method of correction, including orthopantomography and telerentgenography. The application of the calculation method is justified, which allows to establish the fact of a lack of space in the dental arch and to identify the need for its increase in case of crowding of teeth. Indications for extraction of teeth for correction of malocclusion have been determined. The factors determining the success of corrective treatment and the stability of the achieved results are listed.
ANALYSIS OF THE FREQUENCY OF DETECTION OF ALLELES AND GENOTYPES OF POLYMORPHISM (RS1695) ILE 105 VAL FGB GENE IN PREGNANT WOMEN
Authors: Mavlyanova N.N.
Published: September 2021

Introduction. Currently, the most implemented approach to the study of the mechanisms of the formation of obstetric complications (in particular, fetal growth restriction syndrome and fetoplacental insufficiency, FPI) is the identification of disease associations with DNA polymorphisms of candidate genes or their protein products. Particular attention is paid to the genes of the endothelial system, which play a role in the development of thrombophilia.
Patients and methods. The study involved 50 pregnant women aged 20 to 45 years, including 40 patients with FPI and 10 patients without FPI. All pregnant women underwent general clinical, instrumental, biochemical and molecular genetic studies. The object and subject of research for molecular genetic studies were DNA samples of pregnant women and the FGB gene polymorphism (rs1695) IIe 105 Val.
Results. The results of a comparative analysis of the frequencies of distribution of alleles and genotypes of IIe 105 Val polymorphism of the FGB fibrinolysis gene among 80 DNA samples in 40 pregnant women in 87.5% of cases revealed the presence of the normal allele G and in 12.5% of cases - the presence of the allele A (χ2=0.1; р=0.8; OR=1.2; 95%CI 0.306-4.983). Meanwhile, in the control group in 10 pregnant women without FPI, the frequency of the normal allele G of the FGB gene was 85%, while the frequency of the A mutant allele IIe 105 Val of the FGB gene amounted to 15%. The study of the genetic structure of this marker revealed a tendency to an increase in the expected mutation in the main group of pregnant women with FPI in relation to the group without FPI (10% and 2.25%, respectively).
Conclusion. FGB fibrinolysis gene polymorphism (rs1695) IIe 105 Val is relatively widespread among pregnant women in Uzbekistan, and its clinical significance requires further studies.

The pandemic of coronavirus pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus and its multiple complications are a global issue of the day. Coronavirus infection is more severe in patients having chronic concomitant diseases. Also, cardiovascular and metabolic complications, as well as autoimmune disorders, are frequently revealed. The article provides a review of studies regarding hyperglycemia on the background of glucocorticoids use in patients without previous disorders of carbohydrate metabolism. The mechanisms of hyperglycemia development against the background of pathogenetic therapy of cytokine storm in COVID-19 have been described. The aim of this article was to study the pathophysiology of hyperglycemia and to identify hyperglycemia as one of the frequently detected side effects of glucocorticoid treatment against the background of COVID-associated pneumonia. The article presents data from several international research groups about effective and adequate ways of correcting hyperglycemia in accordance with the duration of action of particular insulin medications. The severity of coronavirus infection is often associated with the glycemic status, and this indicator is correlated with the prognosis of the course of coronavirus infection. The biomarkers of inflammatory processes in COVID-19 are discussed. The present article specifies glycemic targets in case of hyperglycemia during treatment with glucocorticoids in the setting of COVID-19.

Abstrak:Pendidikan berbasis karakter dan budaya sangat penting diberikan dalam proses pendidikan. Pemanfaatan TIK secara baik dan benar dapat digunakan untuk mendukung pelaksanaan pendidikan karakter yang menjadi cita-cita luhur pendidikan nasional. Dalam membangun karakter, proses pendidikan dan pembelajaran hendaknya diarahkan (diorientasikan) tidak hanya menjadi konsumen pengetahuan tetapi juga menjadi produsen sebuah pengetahuan. Untuk menjadi produsen pengetahuan, budaya membaca dan menulis harus dilatih melalui penggunaan TIK. Penggunaan TIK harus mampu mendorong peserta didik menjadi orang orang hebat, yang bisa menulis secara ilmiah dan sistematis. Hal ini harus dilakukan secara integrasi melalui pendidikan TIK berbasis karakter dan budaya. TIK harus digunakan untuk menumbuhkan dan mengembangkan karakter peserta didik agar mampu menghasilkan kreativitas dan produktifitas.Kata Kunci: TIK, Pendidikan KarakterAbstract:Education based on character dan culture is important in the educational process (Andrew J.Milson, Marvin W. Berkowits 2003). Ratna Megawangi (2010) in her research said that intellectual intelligent (verbal and logical-mathematical) only gave 20% contribution to the peopleâ€™s successfulness in the society, and the other 80% was determined by the peopleâ€™s emotional intelligent (character). Even though the use of ICT factually has certain negative effects, ICT becomes a very importance factor in improving the quality of human resource.Â  The use of ICT with all its potential can support effectively the character education implementation which is our concern now. In building the character the learner should be oriented to not only a knowledge consumer but also a knowledge producer. To become a knowledge producer, the writing and reading culture can be cultivated through the right use of ICT. ICT must be able to push and make someone a great people who can write systematically. This effort should be integrally done through ICT education based on character and culture. ICT should be use to grow and develop learnersâ€™ character that enable them to become creative and productive.Key Word: ICT, Character Education

Military Intervention and Changing Balance of Power in Libya
Authors: Selján Péter
Published: September 2021

Libya has sunk into chaos since Muammar Gaddafi was deposed by a Western-led military intervention in 2011. Since then, the Libyan crisis has escalated into an internationalised armed conflict, and a major power struggle between Turkey, Qatar, Italy, and Russia, Egypt, France, and the United Arab Emirates. In the last few years, General Khalifa Haftar has become Libya’s most prominent military commander, who is now ruling the eastern part of the country, as the head of the Libyan National Army. His military offensive, launched in April 2019, to capture the capital Tripoli forced Turkey to help the UN-backed Government of National Accord to avoid defeat. But Haftar too received additional military support, especially from Abu Dhabi and Moscow. This escalated the conflict even further, spurring Ankara for another, this time more consequential intervention, which was able to change the local balance of power, so diplomatic efforts and the peace process could get another chance.

Foreign bodies are occasionally reported in the urinary bladder, especially in females. The consequences and clinical impact depend on the route of insertion and the patient’s hemodynamic condition, and their removal may include minimally invasive procedures to open cystostomy. In most cases, foreign bodies are removed through transurethral approach. Here, we report one such case of a foreign body in the urinary bladder, which was self-inserted and had perforated through the bladder wall, yet could be successfully managed by cystoscopic removal without any complications.

Published: September 2021

The andrological clinical examination of small breed dogs was carried out and according to its results, were established the group, breed, age, and performance dependence of the reproductive function manifestation in small breed dogs. The research novelty is that the experiment was carried out on representatives of small breeds such as the Yorkshire Terrier, Chihuahua, Spitz, Toy Terrier, Miniature Poodle, and Maltese lapdog. We found out that residents of megalopolises, such as Dnipro, are more likely to have small and medium-sized dogs, which are more adapted to the conditions of the apartment, and less capricious to the conditions of keeping and care. The reproductive function manifestation of dogs was determined by qualitative indicators of the clinical state, reproductive organs, sexual reflexes, and sperm with distribution on a scale: «G» (good), «S» (satisfactory), «U» (unsatisfactory). After analyzing the data obtained during the study, we came to the conclusion that dogs of small breeds have no less reproductive potential than representatives of other dogs breeds. Of the total number of research dogs, 75% received a grade «G» (good), 22.2% – «S» (satisfactory), 2.8% – «U» (unsatisfactory). The Yorkshire Terrier and Chihuahua have the highest reproductive potential compared to other breeds. In terms of age distribution, the best indicators were shown by representatives of the group from 2 to 3 and from 3 to 5 years. It has been established that the quality of sperm increased depending on the mode use of the male. In particular, according to the intensive use of male dogs (2 times a week, no more than 2 weeks in a row), the reproductive capacity was higher, compared to the moderate and occasional mode of use. The obtained data will help to more expediently use males of small breed dogs in reproduction and have high reproduction rates inside the breed.

Published: September 2021

This study aims to examine the relevance of the seclusion (khalwat) method in the learning process during the COVID-19 pandemic. The method used is library research with an emphasis on analysis of classical references which are the source of the seclusion method. The results of the study indicate that the seclusion method is very relevant to be used in the learning process during the COVID-19 period with the following considerations: (1) The seclusion process takes place in three stages; separation, namely the process of separating oneself from the crowd; Initiation is the process of seclusion, concentration and dive deep within to find enlightenment; and return, namely returning to the social scene with a new vision. (2) The seclusion process is very in line with the psychological conditions of students where conditions require students to practice social distancing and stay away from crowds. (3) The seclusion method aims to foster calm within the perpetrator so that it can be used as an effort to overcome mental disorders of students caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji relevansi metode khalwat dalam proses pembelajaran pada masa pandemik COVID-19. Metode yang digunakan adalah library research dengan penekanan kepada analisis terhadap referensi klasik yang menjadi sumber dari metode khalwat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa metode khalwat sangat relevan untuk digunakan dalam proses pembelajaran pada masa COVID-19 dengan pertimbangan, yaitu: (1) Proses khalwat berlangsung dalam tiga tahap; separation yaitu proses memisahkan diri dari keramaian; Initiation adalah proses mengasingkan diri, berkonsentrasi dan menukik jauh ke dalam diri untuk menemukan pencerahan; dan return yaitu kembali ke kancah pergaulan dengan visi baru. (2) Proses khalwat tersebut sangat inline dengan kondisi kejiwaan peserta didik di mana kondisi mengharuskan peserta didik untuk melakukan social distancing dan menjauhi keramaian. (3) Metode khalwat bertujuan untuk menumbuhkan ketenangan dalam diri pelakunya sehingga dapat dijadikan upaya untuk menanggulangi gangguan jiwa peserta didik yang diakibatkan oleh pandemik COVID-19.

СУТНІСТЬ МОТИВУ ОСОБИСТОСТІ В ТЕОРІЇ МОТИВАЦІЇ
Authors: Іванова Н.
Published: September 2021

У статті здійснено аналіз поняття мотивації та сутності мотиваційного феномену особистості. Охарактеризовано особистісні основи формування змістовних компонентів мотиву в процесі життєдіяльності людини. Розглянуто прогресивні наукові підходи до процесу формування та розвитку мотивів особистості. Проаналізовано різноманітність визначень поняття “мотив”, що свідчить про складність та недостатність його всебічного розгляду, а в широкому розумінні цей термін доцільно розглядати як основу, спонуку емоційних проявів, певних дій та поведінки в цілому. Виокремлено різні групи і види мотивів та їх зв’язок із потребами, що пояснюється схожістю сутностей. Акцентовано увагу на тому, що усвідомлені людиною потреби стають мотивами, а мотиви активізують діяльність щодо задоволення потреб. Доведено, що мотивація і мотив є різні за своєю суттю, але взаємопов’язані поняття і співвідносяться, як загальне й окреме. Визначено, що під мотивами особистості слід розуміти внутрішні спонуки (свідомі, несвідомі) до дій, а основними мотивами особистості є певні бажання, інтереси, переконання, прагнення та ідеали особистості. Обґрунтовано теоретичні положення, що є важливими детермінантами якісного дослідження психологічних засад мотивації особистості.

Chromatic Discrimination Thresholds as a Function of Color Differences and Cone Excitations
Authors: Urbin Ágnes , Nagy Balázs Vince
Published: September 2021

In this paper, Just Noticeable Differences (JNDs) of color-normal subjects measured towards the Protan, Deutan, and Tritan confusion points are presented as a function of the chromaticity of the reference points. Measurements were executed with the Cambridge Colour Test Trivector test in equidistant reference points towards eight directions equally spaced and centered on the neutral reference point in the CIE 1976 UCS diagram.Results were evaluated as the function of the distance between the reference points and the neutral point. The reference points were the chromaticities of the backgrounds of the pseudoisochromatic plates in the test, and the neutral point was defined as equal energy white. The evaluation was performed considering ∆Eu'v' differences and L/(L + M) and S/(L + M) ratios of the cone-excitations.Chromatic discrimination thresholds exceeded the normative upper limit of color normal subjects in ∆Eu'v' units at extreme reference points. Shifting the reference points from the neutral point towards the confusion points indicated an increase of Just Noticeable Differences measured towards the confusion points following second-order polynomials. Based on our results a model estimating the JNDs expressed in ∆Eu'v' units towards the confusion points was recommended.Even though CIE 1976 UCS diagram is not a perceptually uniform color space, the Just Noticeable Differences measured with the CCT correlate with the corresponding L' and S' cone excitations. This confirms the basic applicability of the CIE 1976 UCS diagram for characterizing Just Noticeable Differences. For complete perceptual analysis, the use of cone-excitation-based metrics is still essential and recommended.
AN OPERATIONAL PERSPECTIVE OF THE CHANGING PROSTHETICS & ORTHOTICS LANDSCAPE
Authors: Brandt Jeffrey M.
Published: September 2021

Leading the growth of a private prosthetic and orthotic (P&O) practice, as clinician and founder, I developed a unique perspective of this rapidly changing profession. Many positive influences from my early career shaped my vison toward an innovative practice model, as well as the need to elevate the standard of care through education and the use of outcome measures.  As the practice model expanded, advancements were made in electronic health records (EHR), best-in-class outsource fabrication, and clinical research. To better support clinicians and patients served, an organizational structure with an executive team was built. The practice model achieved operational efficiency through documenting best practices, developing a hiring and onboarding process, and establishing key performance indicators aligned with quality clinical care. As a regional clinical care organization, the practice model seized an opportunity to reach more patients through a partnership that brought the optimal strategic and cultural fit. Bringing our innovative P&O practice model together with expertise in lean facility design, scanning, fabrication, sensor technology, product development and clinical care experience from around the world, we can advance care standards and improve the patient experience in exciting new ways.
