Authors: Krivotulova I. A. , Chernysheva T. V. 
Published: August 2021

Purpose.To establish the relationship of serum adiponectin and leptin with clinical data, serological parameters, disease activity, results of ultrasound examination of the musculoskeletal system and X-ray damage of joints in rheumatoid arthritis patients.Materials and methods.The article presents a comparative characteristic of adipokine levels among 64 women diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (group I) and 30 healthy women (group II). The dependence of adipokine levels on clinical, laboratory, ultrasound and radiological changes was revealed in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.Results.The concentration adiponectin level was significantly higher in rheumatoid arthritis patients compared to the control group (p <0.0001) and had significant correlations with radiological changes in the joints (r=0.40; p <0.001) and the intake duration of methotrexate (r=0.4; p <0.001) and glucocorticosteroids (r=0.3; p <0.05). The level of leptin in the blood serum of women with rheumatoid arthritis and healthy individuals was approximately the same. However, there were positive correlations between the level of leptin and of the tender joint count (r=0.5; p <0.0001), the levels of C-reactive protein (r=0.3; p <0.05) and interleukin-17 (r=0.3; p <0.05), the index Disease Activity Score 28 (r=0.4; p <0.001) and increased blood flow during Doppler imaging (r=0.4; p <0.001).Conclusion.Thus, patients with rheumatoid arthritis have a significant increase in the level of adiponectin compared to the health group, which is associated with pronounced destructive changes in the joints and the intake duration of methotrexate and glucocorticosteroids. However, a positive relationship between the indicators of disease activity and the presence of a Doppler signal is observed only in leptin.

Aim: to study parameters of arterial stiffness and subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) without clinically manifest cardiovascular pathology depending on the presence of anemia.Material and methods. 102 patients with axSpA (mean age – 37.7±9.8 years, axSpA duration – 13.5±8.7 years, 66 (64.7%) men) were included. The BASDAI index and C-reactive protein (CRP)-based ASDAS score were measured, the hemogram, the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and the level of CRP were studied. Parameters of arterial stiffness were studied by oscillography and photoplethysmography, intima-media thickness (IMT) was evaluated by B-mode ultrasound according to standard protocols.Results. During analysis of pulse wave properties, no statistically significant differences in parameters of vascular wall stiffness were found in axSpA patients with and without anemia. Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWVao) in patients with anemia was 7.4±1.5 m/sec, aortic augmentation index (Aix-ao) was 19.1±13.7%, stiffness index (SI) was 8.2±1.7 m/sec; in patients without anemia – 7.4±1.4 m/sec, 17.3±10.6% and 8.8±2.0 m/sec, respectively (p >0.05 for all). IMT in patients with anemia was 0.70±0.13 cm, in patients without anemia – 0.73±0.16 cm (p >0.05). Correlation analysis was performed and significant correlations were noted between Aix-ao, PWVao, SI, IMT and age (r=0.488, r=0.516, r=0.289, r=0.461, respectively, p <0.05); Aix-ao, PWVao and the BASDAI index (r=0.243, r=0.253, respectively, p <0.05). Significant correlations between PWVao and Aix-ao (r=0.442, p <0.001), SI (r=0.273, p=0.011) and IMT (r=0.236, p=0.034) were found.Conclusion. The present study did not confirm the negative effect of anemia on vascular wall stiffness parameters and IMT in patients with axSpA. We consider that potential protective effect of anemia, due to well-known pathophysiological patterns — a decrease in blood viscosity and the induction of nitric oxide synthesis, plays an important role. Further studies are required to assess relationship between hemoglobin levels and markers of endothelial dysfunction in patients with axSpA.

Published: August 2021

The analysis of the legislative base of Ukraine in the field of national safety is performed. It is established that the existing system of national safety does not fully take into account such components as: transport safety, life safety, industrial safety, labor safety (labor protection), man-made safety, fire safety, sanitary and epidemiological safety. It should be noted that despite the urgent need to ensure cybersecurity in modern conditions, the training of specialists carried out in higher education institutions is not coordinated with the state bodies that formulate and implement state policy in the field of national safety. It is shown that currently the terms “Civil Safety” and “Economic Security” are not defined by law and this component of national safety is not included in the national safety system at all. The structure of national safety is proposed and the compliance of safety types with the main components of national safety is determined, which will allow to remove the existing uncertainties and contradictions in the legislation. It is recommended that the next revision of the legal framework of Ukraine in the field of safety take into account the proposed structure of national safety and the defined compliance of safety with the main components of national safety, which will remove existing uncertainties and contradictions in the legislation. At the same time, the proposed structure of national safety can be changed and new definitions of concepts will be provided, which will already be based on the type of threat (military / non-military) and on the objects of influence (state / society / person).

Authors: Romaniuk Anton , Samberg Andre 
Published: August 2021

Background. To collect monitoring data from the nodes of the wireless sensor network in the absence of public telecommunications infrastructure, it is proposed to use telecommunications aerial platforms (TA), built on the basis of UAVs. Each telecommunication aerial platform acts as a mobile gateway, dynamically creates virtual clusters in the network, determines the data collection points in the clusters and their flight paths, forms a schedule and exchanges data with cluster nodes depending on their location coordinates relative to the TA flight path, battery power level and volume of monitoring data.
Objective. The aim of the paper is to improve the efficiency of data collection from wireless sensor network nodes by telecommunication aerial platforms.
Methods. Unlike existing data collection methods, the proposed method: uses the FOREL (FORmal ELement) cluster analysis method for clustering the network, new rules for selecting data collection points and rules for data transmission between TA and cluster nodes to achieve the specified target control functions: minimization of TA data collection time, maximization of network operation time, minimization of used TA.
Results. The proposed monitoring data collecting method by TA from the nodes of the wireless sensor network allows increasing the efficiency of achieving a given target control function (reduce the time of data collection, increase the time of network operation, reduce the number of telecommunication aerial platforms used).
Conclusions. The implementation of the proposed method into the specialized software of the wireless sensor network control system will improve the efficiency of the sensor node data collection process by telecommunication aerial platforms.
Keywords: wireless sensor network; data collection method; network clustering; telecommunication aerial platform.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
The prediction of landslide is a complex task but preparing the landslide susceptibility map through artificial intelligence approaches can reduce life loss and damages resulting from landslides. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) using six machine learning models, including random forest (RF), deep boost (DB), stochastic gradient boosting (SGB), rotation forest (RoF), boosted regression tree (BRT), and logit boost (LB) in the mountainous regions of western India. The landslide inventory map consisting of 184 landslide locations has been divided into two groups for training (70% dataset) and validation (30% dataset) purposes. Fourteen landslide triggering factors including slope, topographical roughness index, road density, topographical wetness index, elevation, slope length, drainage density, stream power index, geomorphology, rainfall, soil, lithology, lineament density, and normalized difference vegetation index have been considered using the boruta approach for the LSM. The results reveal that the RF model has the highest precision in terms of AUC (0.88; 0.89), kappa (0.62; 0.50), accuracy (0.81; 0.77), and specificity (0.86; 0.86) both in the study region and secondary region, respectively. Hence, it can be concluded that the RF is an effective and promising technique as compared to DB, SGB, RoF, BRT, and LB for landslide susceptibility assessment in the research area as well as in regions having similar geo-environmental configuration.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
As a powerful endocrine disruptor, bisphenol A (BPA) is a serious threat to human health. In this study, low-pressure UV lamp (LP-UV) photolysis nitrate was used to degrade BPA in different aqueous solutions. Results showed that BPA could be decomposed efficiently in the UV/nitrate process. ·OH played a significant role in the UV/nitrate process, and the steady-state concentration of ·OH ([·OH]ss) was calculated to be 5.26×10-15 M under control conditions. Moreover, the contributions of UV irradiation (4.1%), ·OH (52.7%), and reactive nitrogen species (43.2%) were obtained. The observed rate constant of BPA degradation (kobs) increased with nitrate concentration since more activity species were generated in high nitrate concentration. BPA degradation rate significantly accelerated as the pH value rose, it was ascribed to the increase of the molar absorption coefficient and the portion of ionic BPA. However, kobs declined with increasing BPA concentration result from the inner filter effect and the competition of more generated intermediate products. The increasing decomposition of BPA with the addition of HCO3-/CO32- (0~10 mM), which could be explained as HCO3-/CO32- scavenged ·OH resulting in the accumulation of ·NO2. The effect of Cl- (0~20 mM) can be ignored, which suggested reactive chlorine radicals degraded BPA effectively. The kobs reduced acutely when NOM (0~5mg-C/L) existed in the solution, this could be ascribed to the dual role of NOM inner filter effect and reactive radicals scavenging effect. Further, several degradation products were detected and possible transformation pathways were put forward. Remarkably, the acute toxicity of BPA was slightly enhanced then decayed in the UV/nitrate process.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
In this work, a cylindrical flow-through electro-Fenton reactor integrated by graphite felt electrodes and Fe(II) loaded resin was evaluated for the production of the Fenton reaction mixture and for the degradation of amoxicillin (AMX) containing aqueous solutions. First, the influence of several factors such as treatment time, current intensity, flow rate and electrode position were investigated for the electrogeneration of H2O2 and the energetic consumption by means of a factorial design methodology using a 24 factorial matrix. Electric current and treatment time were found to be the pivotal parameters influencing the H2O2 production with respective contributions of 40.2% and 26.9%. The flow rate had low influence on the responses, however, 500 mL min-1 (with an average residence time of 1.09 min obtained in the residence time distribution analysis) allowed to obtain a better performance due to the high mass transport to and from the electrodes. As expected, polarization was also found to play an important role, since for cathode-to-anode flow direction, lower H2O2 concentrations were determined when compared with anode-to-cathode flow arrangement, indicating that part of the H2O2 produced in the cathode could be destroyed at the anode. A fluorescence study of hydroxyl radical production on the other hand, showed that higher yields were obtained using an anode-to-cathode flow direction (up to 3.88 µM), when compared with experiments carried out using a cathode-to-anode flow direction (3.11 µM). The removal of a commercial formulation of the antibiotic amoxicillin (AMX) was evaluated in terms of total organic carbon, achieving up to 57.9 % and 38.63% of the pollutant mineralization using synthetic and real sanitary wastewater spiked, respectively. Finally, the efficiency of the process on the inactivation of fecal coliforms in sanitary wastewater samples was assessed, reducing 90% of the bacterium after 5 min of electrolysis.

Abstract
Antifungal activities of 37 essential oils (EOs) against two wood-decaying fungi, Trametes hirsuta and Laetiporus sulphureus were screened in vitro, and investigated the underlying mechanism. Of the 37 EOs, litsea (Litsea cubeba), melissa (Melissa officinalis), palmarosa (Cymbopogon martini), and verbena (Verbena officinalis) demonstrated strong antifungal activity, in which litsea oil exhibited the strongest antifungal property against T. hirsuta and L. sulphureus, with IC50 values of 72.3 and 40.2 µg/ml, respectively. The compositions of litsea, melissa, palmarosa, and verbena EOs were analyzed using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method and demonstrated geranial, geraniol, neral, and citral as their major active constituents. Among of them geranial exhibited the strongest antifungal activity against T. hirsuta and L. sulphureus, with IC50 values of 56.6 and 33.3 µg/ml, respectively. These EOs and their major active constituents increased the plasma membrane permeability of T. hirsuta and L. sulphureus, resulting in the leakage of nucleic acid, protein, and soluble sugar. Results indicate that the EOs of litsea, melissa, palmarosa, and verbena and its major constituents inhibited T. hirsuta and L. sulphureus growth by targeting its plasma membrane.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
Grain yield may be affected in the future by climate change. Some studies have suggested that variations in the seasonal cycle of temperature and season onset could affect the efficiency in the use of radiation by plants, which would then affect yield. However, the study of the temporal variation in extreme climatic variables is not sufficient in China. Therefore, this article evaluates the distribution of extreme temperature seasonality trends in mainland China, describes the trends in the seasonal cycle, and detects changes in extreme temperature characterized by the number of hot days (HD), and frost days (FD) and the frequency of warm days (Tx90p), cold days (Tx10p), warm nights (Tn90p) and cold nights (Tn10p). All data are from the EAR5 reanalysis for the 1979-2020 periods.The results show a statistically significant positive trend in the annual average amplitudes (A0) of extreme temperatures. The change in Txmax was the smallest, but it also accounted for 84.5% of the total area. The annual amplitude (A1) and phase (F1) experienced less variation than A0 for extreme temperatures in mainland China. A1 of the maximum temperature decreased significantly on the Tibetan Plateau and increased significantly in the Tianshan Mountains and Jungar Basin (mainly Taxman). F1 of the maximum temperature exhibit a negative trend in approximately 30% of mainland China, and the trend appeared in some regions except in the Northeast and Southwest. Although A1 of the minimum temperature was not as large as that of the maximum temperature, its distribution was very characteristic and it was almost bounded by the 400 mm isohyet, increasing in the Northwest and decreasing in the Southeast. In terms of the number of days, there was an increase in HD, Tx90p, and Tn90p, as well as a decrease in FD, Tx10p, and Tn10p. This number of days also indicates that temperature has increased over mainland China in the past 42 years.

Abstract
Peatlands are unique wetland ecosystems that provide various ecosystem services such as carbon storage and biogeochemical cycling, however being threatened by anthropogenic activities. The present study was conducted to explore the impact of land use conversion on carbon stocks and peat properties in a tropical peatland in the Leyte Sab-a Basin Peatland (LSBP) in Northeastern Leyte, Philippines. The carbon stocks (aboveground and belowground) and physico-chemical properties of peat soil were compared among wetland forest, grassland and cropland. Land use conversion resulted in the significant reduction of the total aboveground carbon stock. The wetland forest had the highest carbon stocks (38.56 ± 4.58 t ha− 1), and when converted to grassland and cropland, it has resulted to carbon loss of as much as 86.59 and 90.45%, respectively. The belowground root carbon stock was highest in the wetland forest (5.05 ± 0.64 t ha− 1) also while highest peat carbon stock (1 m depth) was observed in the cropland areas (45.28 ± 2.25–61.27 ± 3.07 t ha− 1). However, wetland forests with very deep peat deposits potentially store a significant amount of carbon than in cropland that was characterized by shallower compressed peats. In addition, land use conversion altered the physico-chemical properties of peat such as water content, organic matter, and porosity, and bulk density which all indicated peatland degradation. Finally, the overall result of this study highlights the importance to develop and implement management and conservation plans for LSBP.
