Authors: Gadisov T. G. , Tkachenko A. A. 
Published: December 2020

Summary. Objective: A comparative study of the personality structure from the perspective the Five-factor personality model (“Big Five”) in mentally healthy and in people with personality disorders depending on the leading radical determined by the clinical method.Materials and methods: a comparative study of personality structures in the mentally healthy (13 people) and in individuals with personality disorders (47 people) was carried out. To assess the personality structure, the NEO-Five Factor Inventory questionnaire was used. Persons with personality disorders were divided into groups in accordance with the leading radical: 24 — with emotionally unstable; 13 — with a histrionic; 6 — with schizoid; 4 — with paranoid radicals.Results: There were no differences in the values of the domains of the Five-Factor personality model between a group of individuals with personality disorders and the norm. The features of domain indicators of the Five-factor personality model were revealed in individuals with personality disorder depending on theradical.Conclusion: The NEO-Five Factor Inventory questionnaire, like most other tools from the perspective of the Five-Factor Model, is not suitable for assessing a person in terms of assigning it to variants of a mental disorder. When comparing the categorical and dimensional approaches to assessing the structure of personality disorders, it was found that the obligate personality traits identified using the categorical approach are fully reflected in the «Big Five» in individuals with a leading schizoid radical. The relations of obligate personal traits with the domains of the Five-factor model of personality in individuals with other (paranoid, histrionic,and emotionally unstable) radicals are less clear.

The aim is to study the features of brain activity in patients with affective disorders, depending on the response to therapy. Material and methods. The study included 84 patients with affective disorder. All patients received syndrome-induced psychopharmacotherapy, which included antidepressants and normotimic drugs. The severity of affective disorder was assessed using the Hamilton depression scale. The criterion for the effectiveness of therapy (sensitivity) was an improvement in clinical symptoms by 50% or more, estimated using the Hamilton scale. The study was performed in two stages (points): at the first point, patients were examined upon admission to the Department before taking medications (electroencephalogram recording and filling in the Hamilton scale were performed), the second point was performed after a 4-week course of treatment of patients in the hospital (filling in the Hamilton scale). Registration and analysis of bioelectric activity of the brain was carried out using a 16-channel encephalograph. The signals were processed using fastFourier transform, and the values of absolute spectral power (mV2) for θ — (4 — 7 Hz), α — (8 — 13 Hz) and β — (14 — 30 Hz) rhythms were analyzed.Results. Analysis of the spectral power of electroencephalographic rhythms at rest with closed eyes showed statistically significantly higher values of alpha-rhythm in the frontal(p=0.044) and parietal (0.049) cortex, beta-rhythm in the frontal cortex (p=0.048) and theta-rhythm in the frontal (p=0.0004), Central (p=0.009), parietal (p=0.003) and occipital (p=0.001) cortex in patients who were not sensitive to therapy for compared to respondents.Conclusion. Our study revealed significant differences in quantitative electroencephalogram parameters between patients with affective disorders, depending on the sensitivity to the therapy. The results show that there are aspects of quantitative electroencephalogram thatare related to the response to pharmacological treatment of affective disorders.

Published: December 2020

Introduction. The problem of late schizophrenia is one of the most controversial in clinicalpsychiatry. The organic factors that accompany the aging process make diagnosis difficult. Based on the consensus statement from an international group of experts in the field, this review discusses the features of schizophrenia in old age with a debut at a young age, late-onset schizophrenia (illness onset after 40 years of age) and very-late-onset schizophrenia-like psychosis (onset after 60 years). Method. The author conducted a study of MEDLINE sources on late schizophrenia.Results.This review provides data on the prevalence, neuroanatomy, pathogenesis, clinical presentation and treatment of schizophrenia in the elderly.Conclusion. Late schizophrenia is becoming a serious public health problem worldwide. Particularly relevant are the problems of the course of the disease, medical care and comorbidity in older psychiatric patients (general and illness-related), and treatment concerns related to the use of antipsychotics

The aimof the study was self-regulation of behavior and other psychological aspects of adaptive-compensatory mechanisms in patients with schizophrenia and myasthenia, in comparison with a group of healthy subjects.Materials and methods.The study involved 91 people: patients with schizophrenia (N=30); patients with moderate and severe myasthenia gravis (N=31); comparison group — conditionally healthy people (N=30). The participants were examined by experimental psychological methods: «The style of self-regulation of behavior», «Test of life-meaning orientations», «Semantic time differential».Results.Differences in the general level of self-regulation of behavior and its particular aspects in patients with schizophrenia and healthy were revealed, patients with myasthenia gravis don’t show differences from patients with schizophrenia and the control group. In terms of the general meaningfulness of life, patients with schizophrenia differ from healthy ones, while they don’t differ from those suffering from myasthenia gravis, which don’t have differences with the comparison group. In external internality, chronically ill patients don’t reveal differences, but differ from healthy ones. In the psychological perception of the present, patients with schizophrenia and myasthenia differ from healthy ones in assessing its activity and size. Patients with schizophrenia reveal differences with healthy ones in its emotional coloration and structure, not differing from those suffering from myasthenia gravis, which don’t show differences with the control group. Patients with schizophrenia differ from healthy patients in the sensibility of the future, but don’t differ from patients with myasthenia gravis who don’t reveal differences with healthy individuals.Conclusions.The targets of psychocorrectional effects are indicated. For patients with schizophrenia — the development of skills for differentiation and impulse control, behavioral flexibility and correlation of results with the original goals. For patients with myasthenia gravis — reliance on available classes in the cognitive and spiritual spheres that compensate for the appearance of physical limitations. Common to both nosologies are measures that increase the meaningfulness of life, highlighting the spheres of influence on the disease, rational acceptance of responsibility for what is happening. The skills to enjoy everyday activities are important.

Published: December 2020

Summary.The article presents the results of eating behavior and personality traits study in a group of adolescent girls who consulted a gynecologist in connection with menstrual irregularities.The aimof the study was to identify risk factors for eating disturbance in adolescent girls with menstrual dysregulation.Materials and methods:were examined 75 adolescent girls with various disorders of the menstrual cycle (amenorrhea, opsooligomenorrhea, menorrhagia) and 25 girls of the control group. The characteristic features of eating disorders, the degree of dissatisfaction with one’s appearance, the level of self-esteem, various aspects of self-attitude, the severity of perfectionism and the level of anxiety were assessed. The main factors that determine the relationship between eating behavior and personal characteristics were identified using factor analysis. Risk factors for the development of the main symptoms of eating disorders (drive for thinness and bulimia) in adolescent girls were assessed using regression analysis.Results.It was found that girls with menstrual irregularities are more prone to episodes of overeating and the use of cleansing procedures, they have lower self-esteem and a more negative self-attitude. There were no significant differences in the girls’ assessment of their body image depending on the presence or absence of menstrual irregularities, as well as on the type of disturbances. This assessment in all cases had a tendency to negative perception of varying severity. Factor analysis of indicators of eating disturbances and personality traits in the study groups showed that eating disturbances in girls are closely associated with a negative attitude towards their bodies and with indicators of anxiety. Regression analysis identified indicators affecting drive for thinness and bulimic behavior that differed between groups.Conclusion.Eating behavior in adolescent girls is mediated through various psychological characteristics, including those associated with the features of the menstrual cycle.
Serum uric acid levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus among South Indian Urban Population: A cross sectional study
Authors: Rangareddy Harish , Venkateshappa C  
Published: December 2020

Background and aim: Hyperuricemia is common in individuals with obesity, metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus. This has been attributed to the hyperinsulinemia due to insulin resistance in T2DM and it’s effect on the renal excretion of uric acid. There have been recent studies depicting that hyperuricemia may independently predict the development of diabetes. However, there are conflicting studies of hypouricemia in T2DM as well which may be due to increased glomerular filtration rate with increased renal clearance of uric acid. In order to add further evidence to the existing database of knowledge about uric acid metabolism in T2DM this study was carried out. Material and Methods: This cross sectional study and the subjects were selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data recorded included serum uric acid, HbA1c, fasting and post prandial plasma glucose, serum creatinine, fasting lipid profile and waist hip ratio. Results: The mean value of serum uric acid was 5.11±1.2 mg/dL in diabetics and 4.59±1.12 mg/dL in non-diabetics, though within the normal reference range was statistically significant (p=0.029). However, the association of hyperuricemia (serum uric acid >7mg/dL) as a risk factor for diabetes mellitus was not significant (p=1.000). Waist circumference in cases was 94.8 ± 10 cm and in controls it was 86.6 ± 11.6 cm (p<0.001). Waist-hip ratio in diabetics was 1.0 ± 0.11 and in non-diabetics 0.9 ± 0.08 (p<0.001). HbA1c, FBS, PPBS, serum creatinine, waist circumference, waist-hip ratio were significantly increased and HDLc was decreased significantly in diabetes mellitus. Conclusion: Increased serum uric acid, decreased HDLc and increased waist-hip ratio are observed in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Steps should be taken to monitor serum uric acid, lipid profile and anthropometric measurements of diabetics and non-diabetics.

AbstractThis study aimed to reveal the lecturer’s feedback quality intertwined with students’ engagement in online learning through a WhatsApp group. Also, it unraveled the follow-up actions conducted by the students regarding the feedback. 24 graduate students studying in one of the universities in Bandung city involved. A mixed-method, an explanatory sequential design, was used. Utilizing questionnaires, the study reveals that with a mean of 82.38 and standard deviation of 6.51, the lecturer’s feedback was deemed good with some qualities emanated through the in-depth interviews comprising ‘timely’, detail and relevant to the materials learned, facilitative, supportive, and objective. Meanwhile, with the mean of 73.43 and standard deviation of 10.92, the students’ engagement is considered good, yet challenging issues were found concerning the learner autonomy and the students’ motivation. Moreover, it was found that with the 95% level of confidence the p-value obtained was higher than the 95% level of significance, i.e. p>.05=.98>.05, hence the regression model between the two variables was considered linear. However, at the level of 95% level of significance, it was found that there was no significant relationship between the two variables, i.e. .097 >.050. Moreover, consulting with friends and the lecturer and reading relevant materials constituted the alternatives the students did to handle issues concerning the feedback.Keywords: assessment for learning, online learning, students’ engagement, lecturer’s feedback

Potential threats and dangers in the exclusion zone and unconditional (compulsory) resettlement have been identified. The analysis of statistical data on the involvement of fire and rescue equipment for firefighting. The empirical dependence of the involvement offire and rescue equipment of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine on the elimination of fires in the exclusion zone during the year on their number has been established. It was found that most often 4 to 7 units of fire and rescue equipment of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine are involved in extinguishing fires. Based on the processing of numerical analysis of statistical data, the following conclusions were made: 95% of the time during the year, fire and rescue units are on duty (without calls); 438 hours a year put out single fires; Two hours a year, two fires are extinguished simultaneously. The analysis of calls by service time is carried out. It is established that the service time of calls of fire and rescue units in 25% of cases is up to 2 hours and in 22% of cases is 7-8 hours. An assessment of the locations of fire and rescue units and forest posts with the definition of their service areas. As a result of calculations, it was established that to ensure the normative response to fires at existing facilities in the exclusion zone, it is necessary to provide 4 additional locations of forces and means of fire and rescue units, as well as to ensure the functioning of the fire station on the Vector complex.

The results of research of fire resistance of steel air ducts with the combined system of fire protection in the conditions of fire influence according to the standard temperature regime according to DSTU B V.1.1-4 are resulted. Steel air ducts were investigated, in the design of which two fire protection systems were used, in which passive fire protection material material (fiberglass "IPS-T-1000") and reactive fire protection material materials ("Endotherm HT-150" and "Endotherm 250103") were used. The research method is applied, which is based on the provisions of DSTU B V.1.1-16. The essence of this technique is that the samples of steel ducts are installed in the vertical support structure of the furnace and exposed to fire. According to the obtained experimental data, the integrity and thermal insulation capacity of air ducts are evaluated. According to the results of the research, the peculiarities of temperature distribution on the unheated surface of air ducts in the conditions of fire influence and characteristics of fire resistance of steel air ducts with the combined fire protection system are determined. It is shown that the temperature is most important on the unheated surface of the duct near the place of its compaction in the vertical enclosingstructure. The temperature on the surface of the duct at a distance of 325 mm from the enclosing structure is several tens of degrees lower than the temperature on the surface of the duct at a distance of 25 mm from it. The period of time to achieve the loss of thermal insulation capacity of air ducts and the class of their fire resistance, which is EI 45. The direction of further researches which are focused on revealing of dependencesbetween a time interval before achievement of loss of thermal insulation capacity and thickness of layers of the combined system of fire protection for steel air ducts is defined. This detection will determine the optimalparameters of the combined fire protection system for steel air ducts, acceptable to ensure their fire resistance for a wide range of duration of fire exposure at a standard temperature.

Published: December 2020

The tobacco industry is one of the biggest industries in the world generates and disposes large quantities of wastewater in the environment which may be toxic to the plant, animal, public health as well as environment. Therefore, an experiment was conducted during November, 2019 at Crop Physiology and Ecology Laboratory, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur, Bangladesh to observe the effects of tobacco industry wastewater on germination, early seedling growth and seedling leaf chlorophyll content of wheat (TriticumaestivumL.). Three wheat genotypes (BARI Gom 28, BARI Gom 29 and BAW 1177) and two growing conditions (normal tap water and tobacco industry wastewater) were assigned in a completely randomized design with three replications in germination test. Results showed that germination characteristics, seedling growth and chlorophyll content in leaf of seedling significantly influenced by wheat genotype, growing condition and their interaction. Irrigation with tobacco industry wastewater lowered the germination percentage, rate of germination, co-efficient of germination and vigor index. However, seedlings irrigated with tobacco industry wastewater produced longer shoot and root as compared to seedlings irrigated with tap water. Similarly, tobacco industry wastewater increased the shoot and root dry weight but reduced the chlorophyll content in leaf of seedling. Among the three wheat genotypes, BAW 1177 performed better under both tap water and wastewater conditions regarding germination, early growth and chlorophyll content in leaf of seedling.
