Authors: Malykhin Oleksandr , Aristova Nataliia , Dyka Nataliia 
Published: May 2020

The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of networked professional learning on university teachers’ self-efficacy to create a positive university climate. The study also provides, on the one hand, the theoretical overview of the scientific papers by Ukrainian and foreign scholars related to clarifying the understanding of the research leading concepts of “networked professional learning” and “informal learning” in scientific literature and, on the other hand, empirical research into the influence of networked professional learning on university teachers’ self-efficacy to create a positive university climate. The experimental research was conducted in two stages. During the first stage of research a total of 267 university teachers who volunteered to participate in the research were interviewed for eliciting information concerning their participation activity rate in specially focused network pedagogical communities. During the second stage 108 university teachers selected from the total population by homogeneous sampling completed a questionnaire on teacher self-efficacy developed by A. Bandura. Although the findings of the study show that not all university teachers believe that there is a clear link between networked professional learning and high level of university teachers’ self-efficacy, the majority of respondents recognize the increasing influence of informal learning in general and networked professional learning in particular on their professional growth. For understanding the research leading concepts and interpreting obtained findings methods of scientific literature analysis and mathematical statistics were used.
EXPERIENCE WITH AND PERCEPTION OF CLIL BY STUDENT TEACHERS
Authors: Lukáčová Zuzana 
Published: May 2020

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) plays a key role in addressing the issue of meaningful and authentic learning. Central to this approach is the concept of a foreign language in a meaningful context while taking into consideration dual aims, i.e. a linguistic and a content aim. The purpose of this paper is to review recent research into the problematics of CLIL and its implementation at primary, lower-secondary and upper-secondary schools as well as to explore the experience with and perception of student teachers towards the CLIL approach. The data were obtained from a semi-structured questionnaire distributed among student teachers of English language and literature (in combination). Based on the data obtained, approximately half of the respondents have had an experience with the CLIL approach in the past. Moreover, the majority of the respondents perceive such an experience as positive. Student teachers' previous experience with CLIL can play an important role in addressing the issue of implementing this approach into teaching by teachers – beginners. Thus, it is believed that the paper will contribute to our understanding of the approach, its implementation at primary, lower-secondary, upper-secondary schools and the perception of the approach by the student teachers of English (in combination) in Slovakia.

This article aims to give an overview of students – top athlete experience, how to combine studies at university with a sports career. For the data, the acquisition was used as an individual, written survey with mixed-type questions by form. Applicants of the survey were students who are in the national team or master players. The data from the survey was processed by AQUAD Seven, was used descriptive and inferring statistics analysis of factors using the data statistical processing programs SPSS and Excel. Talented athletes have to make an important choice about their future after graduating high school: to start studies at university, focus on sports careers or combine these two goals. Combining studies to the high-achievement sport is the goal of dual career, it is a serious step for every young talent. In this article, we summarise top athlete opinions, who are studying in Latvian universities, about dual-career. Their recommendations for improving the situation, expanding opportunities and engaging mentors in certain study programs they are studying in. Conclusions are drawn, that there is possible development in a dual career, based on the results of this and previous author`s researches. Different universities and programs have different possibilities and experiences in creating the study process for the top athletes, which should be taken into consideration when making a united dual-career model for universities.

The aim of the present paper is to monitor changes of selected mental and physiological stress indicators in both female and male sportsmen in the subsequent days prior to an International Judo Tournament in Poland and on the competition day. The study included 9 men and 9 women, participants of the training camp that ended with a tournament. Every morning, on the three consecutive days preceding the competition (day -3, -2, -1) and on the competition day (day 0) capillary blood was sampled to determine serum cortisol (C) and testosterone (T) levels, then the subjects assessed their night sleep quality (SQ) with the use of a 5-point Likert scale, and perceived anxiety using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory questionnaire by Spielberger (STAI - Polish version). SQ insignificantly deteriorated, and C and anxiety levels increased with the time to event. The inter-group analysis for the entire period showed higher scores in average anxiety and higher average level of C in women than men. The relative changes in these biomarkers could indicate higher pre-competitive stress in women, however without taking into account the sports class of the opponents individually for each of the groups one cannot imply gender-specific susceptibility to stress as a general principle.

Authors: Andreanova Inna , Rozhkova Anna , Bulgakova Ilona 
Published: May 2020

The development of modern technologies poses new challenges for training legal professionals. Traditional forms of teaching do not produce the desired secondary effect (for example, the students' interest in acquiring knowledge in a particular course) or the end result (acquiring the competences needed for the modern job market). Consequently, teaching should be more focused on the application of new, non-traditional forms of education while preserving the best traditions of legal training (handwriting rather than e-device, developing communication skills and emotional intelligence). As a result, this article analyses the use of technologies and potential threats they pose to maintaining traditional values specific to the legal profession in the education process. The article, using the method of literature analysis, dialectical research, the deductive and inductive method, analysis and synthesis, and modelling, which ensures the validity of the results obtained, sociological observation method, including as well as the experience of Rezekne Academy of Technologies and of Pskov State University in the training of new lawyers, summarises information and draws conclusions on how to use technology and its development opportunities in the education process.

Authors: Bogdanoviča Irina , Lāriņš Viesturs 
Published: May 2020

Primitive reflexes is an automatic muscle reactions which are only present in the first few months, but can remain active in healthy children, thus, impacting on motor proficiency. There is little evidence how primitive reflexes influence on swimming skills acquisition by healthy children. The aim of the study is to examine how primitive reflexes influence swimming skills acquisition by healthy children. Subjects: two 7-year-old girls. Methods: Checklists by Oh et al., (2011) were used to evaluate swimming skill proficiency at swimming lesson 8 and 16. The results were represented as a percentage of the possible maximal score. The testing of the asymmetrical tonic neck reflex, the symmetrical tonic neck reflex, and the tonic labyrinthine reflex was done using Blythe’s, 5-point rating scale. The analysis was carried out using descriptive method. The first girl showed two reflexes at level 1, while the second girl demonstrated all tested reflexes at level 1, 2 and 3. The girl with less total score of reflexes (8%) achieved a better level of swimming proficiency (from 73% to 77%) than the girl with higher (25%) severity of these reflex (from 21% to 33%.). The obteined data evidence about influence of primitive reflexes on swimming skill acquisition by healthy children.

Published: May 2020

The researches indicate that core stability may play a substantial role in reducing fall risk in the elders. Nevertheless, cognition and functional performance has been identified with fall risks as well. The impact of functional performance elements and/or cognition on core stability, to complement the intervention programs for seniors in the future, has not been fully studied. This study aimed to assess the effects of leg strength, static balance, walking speed and cognition on the core stability scores. In a cross-sectional design study a sample of 62 participants were eligible for the study. Elderly aged 60 or older living in Social care centers or autonomous were recruited. Independent variables included static balance, walking speed, leg strength measured by Short Physical Performance Battery, cognition (alertness, divided attention, selective attention, and working memory) evaluated with the Rehacom screening software and age. Dependent variable core stability (the ability to maintain appropriate contraction of muscle transversus abdominis) was assessed performing Prone test with Chattanooga Stabilizer Pressure Biofeedback. A hierarchical multiple regression was used for statistical analysis. Static balance and cognition presented greater effects significantly explaining 18% and 13% of the variability of core stability, whereas no significant effects of walking speed and leg strength were found on core stability. Exercise programs where static balance and cognition tasks are implemented to complement core stability performance might be worth investigating and compare with other intervention methods to reduce the risk of falling in the elderly population.
Türk Western’ine Yapısalcı Bir Yaklaşım: Yahşi Batı Örneği
Authors: SİM Şükrü , GÖNCÜ Semih 
Published: May 2020

Western türü sinemanın ilk zamanlarında ortaya çıkmış ve uzun bir dönem seyircinin büyük ilgi gösterdiği popüler türlerin başında gelmiştir. Dolayısıyla tür, film çalışmaları kapsamında farklı akademik yaklaşımlar çerçevesinde ele alınmıştır. Örneğin 1950’li yıllarda türe dair yaklaşımlar mitsel bir çerçevede teşekkül etmiştir. Akabinde Auteur teorinin film çalışmalarında etkin bir konuma doğru evrilmesi, western’lerin bu teori kapsamında irdelenmesine yol açmıştır. 1970’li yıllarla birlikte türe dair seyirci ilgisi azalırken, türe olan akademik ilgi yükselmiştir. Bu dönemde ön plana çıkan yaklaşım ise Will Wright’ın başını çektiği yapısalcı yaklaşım olmuştur. 1931-1972 yılları arasında çekilen western’leri yapısalcı yaklaşım ile inceleyen Wright western’lerde bulunan Amerika’nın modern mitlerini ortaya çıkarmaya çalışmıştır. Wright, western’lerde dört farklı anlatı yapısının takip edildiğini ve filmlerin yapısının bazı karşıtlıklardan oluştuğunu iddia etmiştir. Bu çalışmada Will Wright’ın yapısalcı yaklaşımı Türk sinemasında son dönemde çekilen tek western/komedi filmi olan Yahşi Batı (2009) filmine uygulanmıştır. Filmin Wright’ın yapısalcı yaklaşımına uygunluk gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Bu şekilde Wright’ın 1970’li yıllarda western’lere dair ortaya koyduğu yapısalcı yapının, ABD dışında nispeten yakın zamanda çekilen bir Türk western’inde de geçerliliğini koruduğu ortaya çıkarılmıştır.
Endotoxin Potentiates The Procoagulant Effects Of Tissue Factor
Authors: Spillert Charles R. 
Published: May 2020

Tissue Factor is the initiator of the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. It is
generated in blood as a result of a variety of diseases and conditions and is, in part, responsible for the majority of morbidity and mortality in humans. In spite of this potential release during major trauma or diseases, there are few rapid clinical whole blood coagulation tests that can monitor the early generation of tissue factor. This study will evaluate whether endotoxin enhances the procoagulant effects of tissue factor on human blood and plasma.

O presente estudo teve como objetivo quantificar o cloro residual livre presente nas amostras e avaliar quais doses apresentam conformidade com o estabelecido pela Portaria da Consolidação. Para o desenvolvimento do estudo, utilizou- se a cianobactéria Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii, recorrente nas florações nos mananciais brasileiros. O oxidante escolhido foi o cloro gasoso, devido ao baixo custo e fácil manuseio. As análises foram feitas para as densidades 1,0 x 104 e 1,0 x 106 células.mL-1 e para os tempos de contato 30 min e 24 h. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram um elevado consumo de cloro e, consequentemente, baixa concentração de cloro residual livre.

A queima das folhas da cenoura (Alternaria (Kühn) Groves & Skolko) é a principal doença da cultura e tem comprometido a sua produtividade. Como se desconhece a epidemiologia da doença no Brasil, o objetivo do trabalho foi caracterizar o progresso temporal e espacial desta doença nas cond ições de cultivo na região Sul do Brasil. Sementes de cenoura da cultivar Brasília foram semeadas em três blocos de 270 plantas cada. A incidência inicial da doença na linha de plantio foi utilizada para a análise espacial através dos testes de run e doublet e seus resultados analisados pelo valor (±1,64) estandardizado no teste de Z a 5% de probabilidade. A severidade da doença foi analisada através de escala diagramática em 120 plantas ao acaso previamente demarcadas e os dados da severidade foram ajustados a um modelo não linear ao longo do ciclo da cultura. Constatou-se que o padrão espacial da doença foi acima de 99% ao acaso para ambos os testes. A curva de progresso da doença foi ajustada ao modelo de Gompertz, representada por y=0,253356*(exp(29,59929*exp(- 0,69466*x))). Esse estudo servirá de modelo para trabalhos relacionados à doença.

Objectives. To evaluate the impact of duration and service category on HIV health outcomes among low-income adults living with HIV and enrolled in a housing program in 2014 to 2017. Methods. We estimated relative risk of engagement in care, viral suppression, and CD4 improvement for 561 consumers at first and second year after enrollment to matched controls through the New York City HIV surveillance registry, by enrollment length (enrolled for more than 1 year or not) and service category (housing placement assistance [HPA], supportive permanent housing [SPH], and rental assistance [REN]). Results. The SPH and REN consumers were enrolled longer and received more services, compared with HPA consumers. Long-term SPH and REN consumers had better engagement in care, viral suppression, and CD4 count than controls at both first and second year after enrollment, but the effect did not grow bigger from year 1 to 2. HPA consumers did not have better outcomes than controls regardless of enrollment length. Conclusions. Longer enrollment with timely housing placement and a higher number and more types of services are associated with better HIV health outcomes for low-income persons living with HIV with unmet housing needs.

Abstract
Objective: Physical therapy, including percussion, inversion, vibration and combinations, was clinically performed to improve the stone free rate (SFR) following lithotripsy procedures. However, physical therapy is not widely accepted in clinical practice owing to lack of high level evidence support and a standard protocol. The present meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of physical therapy in improving SFR following extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) and retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS).Methods: Systematic review of literature from PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane library and Embase was performed in March 2019. The efficacy and safety of physical therapy after ESWL and RIRS were assessed by meta-analysis of SFR and complication rate.Results: A total of 8 prospective studies with 1065 patients were enrolled. When compared to non-intervention, physical therapy provided a higher SFR (OR:3.38, 95% CI: 2.45-4.66, p< 0.0001) at all time points (week 1, week 2 and month 1), while there was no significant difference in complications such as hematuria, lumbago, dizziness and urinary tract infection(OR: 0.84; 95%CI: 0.62-1.13; p=0.237). In subgroup analysis of different stone locations, lower calyx stone (OR: 3.51; 95%CI: 2.21-5.55; p<0.0001), upper ureter and renal pelvic stones (OR:2.79; 95%CI:1.62-4.81; p=0.0002) had a higher SFR after physical therapy, while there was no significant improvement in SFR in upper and middle calyx stones. In subgroup analysis of different techniques, EPVL (external physical vibration lithecbole, OR:3.47; 95%CI:2.24-5.37; p<0.0001) and PDI (percussion, diuresis and inversion, OR:3.24; 95%CI:2.01-5.21; p<0.0001) were both effective in improving SFR when compared to non-intervention. Conclusions: Physical therapy is effective in improving the SFR after ESWL and RIRS, especially for lower calyx stones, upper ureter and renal pelvic stones, while without significant side effects. External physical vibration lithecbole (EPVL) might provide a relative uniformed and repeatable protocol for clinical practice of physical therapy. Review Registration: PROSPERO 2019 CRD42019130228.
