The effect of personality characteristics combined with behavioral activation system (BAS) / behavioral inhibition system (BIS) and sport emotional induction on working memory
Authors: Entezari Marzieh , Dehkordi Parvaneh Shamsipour , Heidari Mahtab 
Published: October 2021

Abstract

Study aim: To investigate the interactive effects of behavioral activation or behavioral inhibition and induced pleasant or unpleasant emotions on working memory performance among young adults.

Material and methods: Eighty participants (age 18–32 years) were randomly classified into 2 groups behavioral activation or inhibition and then sub-divided further via whether they received inductions in either pleasant emotions or unpleasant emotions. A pre-test measure of the working memory test was recorded and repeated after emotional induction.

Results: The ANOVA analysis indicated significant effect of PERSONALITY factor (F1,76 = 4.760, p = 0.0322, ηp
2 = 0.059) on results of the working memory test. The memory performance of the behavioral activation group that received positive emotion was better than the other groups, and the working memory performance of the behavioral inhibition group that received positive emotion was poorer than the other groups. Furthermore, the working memory performance of the behavioral activation group (positive emotion) was better than the other groups. Also, the working memory performance of the behavioral inhibition group (positive emotion) was poorer than the other groups.

Conclusions: Finally, the findings support the different effects of the brain behavioral systems and sport emotional induction on working memory.
Depression and the use of antidepressants in cardiovascular diseases from a cardiologist’s perspective
Authors: Blat Diana , Stelmach Ewa 
Published: October 2021

Abstract

Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases, especially coronary heart disease or heart failure, are often chronic.

Aim and method: The aim of this study was to review the literature on the prevalence of depressive disorders and the use of antidepressants in cardiovascular disease. For this purpose, articles available in PubMed and Google Scholar databases were used.

Results: About one in five patients with cardiovascular disease suffers from major depressive disorder. Psychosocial stress, depression and anxiety, are associated with poorer prognosis and make it more difficult for patients to make positive lifestyle changes and comply with medical recommendations. Conversely, depressive symptoms are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular incidents. Regarding pharmacotherapy, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are considered safe drugs, while tricyclic antidepressants are not recommended. In the treatment of depression and cardiovascular diseases, supplementation or a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids is worth mentioning.

Conclusions: The above literature review highlights the need for a multidirectional approach that is essential to diagnose, understand and then treat these, often comorbid, conditions of cardiovascular disease and depression.

Published: October 2021

Abstract
Effective teaching methods for the coming generations of pragmatic students and teachers are evolving towards much greater involvement on all sides, attempting to bridge real life and academia in innova-tive ways. Our theoretical foundation lays upon the Triple Helix, n-Tuple Helix theory and the innova-tion triangle, but in a problem-based multidisciplinary setting. After introducing and validating the Mul-tiCreation approach in teaching/learning for the business-academia collaboration, where multiple disci-plines, diverse profiles of students, professors, and managers have taken up various roles to address relevant business issues, we were encouraged to expand its applicability beyond the business world - toward societal problems. We retained the problem-based and participatory learning but shifted the positioning of the problem towards the safety of primary school children, incorporating economic, pro-ject-based, managerial, traffic engineering, logistical, regulatory, and governance issues. By including two primary schools, collaborating with their principals, advisory teams, and teachers, as well as chil-dren and parents, in two different cities, we aimed to provide complete research, engineering and educa-tion for the stakeholders so that the schools could just hand in documentation to the relevant municipal bodies to be acted upon effectuation. The involved students came from two faculties -of economics and traffic engineering, steered by three university professors on the subjects of project management and basic and advanced techniques for traffic management. The blended learning components took place as prescribed in the MultiCreation approach, during two semesters of two academic years. They combined countermeasures and solutions. The MultiCreation approach has been enhanced regarding its components and workflow and its effectiveness has been validated in a multi-stakeholder environ-ment of direct and indirect educational beneficiaries.
Exploring the Contribution of Personal Qualities to the Personal and Professional Development of Trainee Sport Psychology Practitioners’ Within the Individuation Process
Authors: Verner Daryl , Chandler Charlotte , Clarke Philip 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
Since the person behind the practitioner has been recognised as a core foundation of professional practice in sport psychology, research attention has diffused to focus on navigating the ‘rocky road’ towards individuation. As such, this study extended the literature by illuminating the importance of developing personal qualities during the embryonic stages of supervised experience (SE) in sport psychology to help support the individuation process occurring throughout the training journey. Specifically, the aim of the current study was to explore the contribution of personal qualities to the personal and professional development of trainee sport psychology practitioners, within the individuation process. Seven semi-structured interviews were conducted with probationary sport and exercise scientists (psychology) working in a range of elite and professional sports (i.e., premier league football, rugby league, golf, gymnastics, swimming, and several other Olympic sports). The interview schedule was refined following a pilot study. Interview transcripts were content analysed and trustworthiness criteria applied. Interpretative phenomenological analysis identified three main superordinate themes, labelled ‘self-development of personal qualities’, ‘facilitators of supervisee individuation’, and ‘initial consulting experiences of practitioners’. This study extends the literature by illuminating the importance of developing personal qualities during the embryonic stages of SE to help support the individuation process occurring throughout the training journey, thus better preparing sport psychologist’s for self-governed practice once accredited. Considerations are given in relation to how sport psychology education and training programmes could aid the individuation process via the development of personal qualities.
Towards an ethic of “Inescapable situations”
Authors: Rovaletti María Lucrecia 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
In connection with the traditional principles of Bioethics, we wonder if they are able to make us understand the terminal patient and those who look after him and his family, or if it will be necessary to “go backwards” (Schritt zurück) - to speak in Heidegger’s terms- up to reach that unavoidable principle that guides and inspires the application of the others. The thought of Emmanuel Levinas can place us near an answer. In fact, he insists that it is the “other” in his face the one that it is imposed with its own strength, as a being essentially ethic and before its presence the only response is to recognize him/her as constitutively “indigent”. Precisely, before any other theory or any other argument, the “other” is presented to me face-to-face, his own presence is already existence of his acknowledgment, it is a call and a appeal to responsibility.
Since Ethic demands primarily a complete dedication of all the person, that is to say a radical commitment of reason, will and feelings, we ask ourselves in front of these patients to get for them a new shelter. Serenity, availability, comforted mood among threats, patience, gratitude and hope may become founding virtues of interpersonal relationships (Bollnow).
Aron Gurwitsch: Fenomenología de la percepción y encuentro con Kurt Goldstein
Authors: Pintos-Peñaranda María da Luz 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
Aron Gurwitsch es el primero que hace en Francia, como fenomenólogo, una exposición profunda y sistemática de la fenomenología husserliana. Desde el comienzo él centra su investigación en una fenomenología de la percepción. Los aspectos en los que más focaliza su atención le conducen, ya desde el inicio de su labor investigadora, a sentir una profunda sintonía con el trabajo del netiropsiquiatra Kart Goldstein. Él también el primero que hace en Francia una divulgación del trabajo de este neuropsiquiatra desde la filosofía. De modo que en la obra de Gurwitsch hay dos líneas de investigación que se juntan y que están en él desde el principio: su contacto con el Husserl de Friburgo y su profunda compenetración con él, y su trabajo en Frankfurt con Goldstein y con el psicólogo de la Gestalt que colabora con él: Adhémar Gelb. En esta ponencia intento buscar alguna respuesta a la cuestión de qué ve Gurwitsch en el análisis que hace Goldstein de sus pacientes con lesiones. cerebrales para considerar él que este análisis goldsteniano es extremadamente coincidente con el propio análisis fenomenológico de la percepción de Husserl.
Fenomenología y esencia procesual humana
Authors: Beites Pilar Fernández 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
Esta ponencia ofrece el esbozo de una posible “ontología fenomenológica de la persona”. El punto de partida es la aceptación del reto existencialista que exige contar con el carácter procesual o dinámico de la vida humana. Pero lo que se defiende, frente al existencialismo heideggeriano, es que la importancia del hacerse, de la existencia no debe llevar a negar la esencia. Para poder hablar de una esencia humana que se hace en parte a sí misma, se utiliza la “teoría de la sustantividad” propuesta por el filósofo español Xavier Zubiri, que, a su vez, se interpreta como una “teoría de todos y partes” del tipo de la desarrollada por el fundador de la fenomenología, Edmund Husserl.
Experimental and Numerical Investigation on Specimen Geometry Effect on the CTOD Value For VL-E36 Shipbuilding Steel
Authors: Kowalski Jakub 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
There are special cases in the marine industry, where additional material tests, such as the fracture toughness test, must be performed. Additional fracture toughness tests, such as CTOD (Crack Tip Opening Displacement), are typically performed on three-point bend specimens. The dimension that defines all the specimen dimensions is the thickness of the material to be tested. It is recommended by classification societies (e.g. DNVGL) to test specimens that are twice as high as the material thickness. The width determines the length and, therefore, the weight of the specimen which, for a 100 mm plate is over 140 kg. Current ASTM E1820, BS7448-1 and ISO 12135 testing standards also allow for proportions other than those recommended. This results in a much smaller test piece. Reducing the specimen size allows the testing machine to achieve lower forces than a specimen with a width to thickness ratio of two. This paper presents the effect of changing the specimen geometry on CTOD test results. Research was performed for specimens with a height to thickness ratio of one and two. Abaqus software was used for numerical calculations. The numerical results were, at selected points, verified experimentally.
Study of Array of Mems Inertial Measurement Units Under Quasi-Stationary and Dynamic Conditions
Authors: Demkowicz Jerzy , Bikonis Krzysztof 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
A measurement system includes all components in a chain of hardware and software that leads from a measured variable to processed data. In that context, the type and quality of the sensors or measuring devices are critical to any measurement system. MEMS/IMU sensors lag behind leading technologies in this respect, but the MEMS/IMU performance rapidly changes while is relatively inexpensive. For this reason, the paper proposes some investigations of currently available MEMS/IMUs, but in an array configuration. The article presents the results of research undertaken on this type of IMU sensor configuration under quasi-stationary and dynamic conditions and answers the question of whether the precision of current MEMS technologies for acceleration and angular velocity sensors is still improved using this kind of approach.

Abstract

Background: Sepsis is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in intensive care units. This study explored the possible role of vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) and podoplanin (PDPN) in sepsis.

Methods: 22 Wistar rats were divided into three groups: two experimental (Group A and B, n=8/8) and a control (Group C, n=6). Sepsis was induced with intraperitoneal injection of ESBL (extended-spectrum beta-lactamases)-producing E-coli live bacteria for group A and with lipopolysaccharide for group B. Sterile saline solution was injected for group C. Blood samples were collected after 24 hours to determine the serum level of VEGF-C, and PDPN expression was examined in liver, kidney, and lung tissues. Bacteremia was assessed for group A.

Results: Higher serum levels of VEGF-C were found in Group A vs C (p=0.05) and group B vs. C (p=0.004), respectively.VEGF-C was also increased in animals with negative- vs. positive blood cultures from group A (p=0.04) and from group B vs. those with positive blood cultures from group A (p=0.03). High intensity of PDPN tissue expression was observed in the pulmonary alveolocytes from Group A and epithelium of the proximal renal tubules in groups B and C, compared to group A.

Conclusions: Circulating VEGF-C can be succesfuly used as a biomarker of sepsis with negative blood cultures and high risk of renal failure, whereas PDPN seems to exert a protective role against lung injuries in live bacteria-induced sepsis.

Abstract

Background: The severe manifestations of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are linked to viral hyper-inflammation, cytokine release syndrome and subsequent coagulation disturbances. The most common coagulation abnormality observed in COVID-19 patients is the elevation of the plasma levels of D-dimers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of COVID-19-associated inflammatory syndrome and coagulopathy, in correlation with disease severity.

Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study, enrolling all consecutive COVID-19 patients treated in the Adulti 3 Department of the Prof. Dr. Matei Bals National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Bucharest, Romania, between 1st march and 30th September 2020. We recorded clinical and epidemiological characteristics, inflammatory markers, coagulation abnormalities and lymphocyte count. The severity of lung involvement was assessed using native Computed Tomography examination.

Results: We included 106 patients with SARS-COV2 infection, 50 males (47.2%) and 56 females (52.8%), age range 14-91 years. All markers of inflammation were increased in our study in patients with severe disease, as were lactate dehydrogenase, monocyte distribution width, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio. An elevated level of serum D-dimers was observed in approximately half of our subjects and was associated with disease severity. Our best linear regression model for predicting COVID-19 coagulopathy (manifested as abnormal D-dimer levels) included age, fibrinogen, and lymphocyte count.

Conclusion: Our findings emphasize the association between COVID-19 coagulopathy and the presence of systemic inflammation. A significant proportion of patients with moderate and severe disease had coagulation abnormalities and these were linked with the presence of inflammation and older age..

Социально-экономическое, политическое развитие нашего государства, интеграция в мировое сообщество являются важнейшими факторами, обусловливающими объективную необходимость качественных преобразований в системе профессионального педагогического образования. Насущной является необходимость создания условий для подготовки специалистов, ориентированных на выполнение социального заказа общества, конкурентоспособных на международном рынке труда, способных к профессиональному саморазвитию, самокоррекции в меняющихся условиях. Направления реформирования этой отрасли специального образования отражают общие тенденции развития образовательной практики в мире. Проблема формирования и развития профессиональной компетентности учителей рассматривается в контексте личностно ориентированной модели обучения, существенным признаком которой является такая организация усвоения содержания образования субъектом, во время которого происходит снятие объективного значения материала и выявление в нем субъективного смысла личностно утверждающих ценностей. Цель статьи заключается в раскрытии специфики, видов и технологии проведения интерактивных семинаров как формы активизации учебно-познавательной деятельности студентов вуза. В научно-педагогической литературе интерактивными принято называть средства, обеспечивающие непрерывное диалоговое взаимодействие субъектов образовательного процесса.Socio-economic and political development of our state, integration into the world community are the most important factors that determine the objective need for qualitative changes in the system of professional teacher education. There is an urgent need to create conditions for training specialists focused on fulfilling the social order of society, competitive in the international labor market, capable of professional self-development, self-correction in changing conditions. The directions of reforming this branch of special education reflect the general trends in the development of educational practice in the world. The problem of formation and development of professional competence of teachers is considered in the context of a personality-oriented learning model, an essential feature of which is such an organization of the assimilation of the content of education by the subject, during which the objective meaning of the material is removed and the subjective meaning of personality-affirming values is revealed in it. The purpose of the article is to reveal the specifics, types and technologies of interactive seminars as a form of activation of educational and cognitive activity of university students. In the scientific and pedagogical literature, it is customary to call interactive means that ensure continuous dialog interaction of the subjects of the educational process.
Implementation of the concept of social mobility of future primary school teachers
Authors: Тонких А.П. 
Published: October 2021

Студенты как основа будущего развития государства, формируют особую среду, которая социализирует и сопоставляет цели и задачи развития государства с их практическим воплощением. Стремление к интеграции в международное сообщество, наполнение учебных планов проблематикой международных отношений сводят все процессы научения студентов к определению критерием, согласно которым обучение может считаться законченным. Вместе с этим формирование студента должно основываться на постулате о том, что студент является будущим специалистом в какой-либо области. Соответственно актуальность исследования определяется тем, насколько у студента формируется готовность к реализации себя как специалиста в процессе осуществления трудовой деятельности. Новизна исследования определяется тем, что авторы в качестве показателя готовность будущего специалиста к профессиональной деятельности определяют готовность преподавателя к социальной мобильности. Подобную мобильность предлагают основывать на социальном понимании значения преподавательской деятельности. Готовность авторы оценивают по критериальным параметрам, которые определяются в свою очередь на основе проектирования образовательной среды. Практическая значимость исследования определяется формированием модели социальной мобильности будущего учителя начальных классов, которая основывается на рассмотрении совокупности социальных и экономических условий.
Students, as the basis for the future development of the state, form a special environment that socializes and compares the goals and objectives of the development of the state with their practical implementation. The desire to integrate into the international community, filling the curriculum with the problems of international relations reduce all the processes of teaching students to determine the criteria according to which the training can be considered completed. At the same time, the formation of the student should be based on the postulate that the student is a future specialist in any field. Accordingly, the relevance of the study is determined by the degree to which the student is prepared to realize himself as a specialist in the process of carrying out work. The novelty of the research is determined by the fact that the authors determine the teacher's readiness for academic mobility as an indicator of the future specialist's readiness for professional activity. Such mobility is suggested to be based on a social understanding of the value of teaching. The authors evaluate the readiness according to the criteria parameters, which are determined in turn on the basis of the design of the educational environment. The practical significance of the study is determined by the formation of a model of social mobility of the future primary school teacher, which is based on the consideration of a set of social and economic conditions.
