DOMINANT CONCEPT IN THE STORY OF A. P. CHEKHOV “FEAR"
Authors: Евдокимова Ольга Константиновна 
Published: January 2021

Данная статья посвящена рассказу А. П. Чехова «Страх» (1892), а в центре внимания - проблема изучения особенностей созданного писателем художественного мира посредством концепта в его литературоведческом понимании. Концепт «страх» выступает в качестве доминантного в анализируемом произведении. Рассказ «Страх» нечасто становится предметом отдельного изучения в чеховедении, между тем в этом произведении выражено одно из преобладающих настроений чеховского времени и соответственно социально-психологический тип поведения, ставший характерным для русского общества в конце XIX века. В работе представлена история вопроса в связи с понятием «концепт» и рассказом «Страх» в современном литературоведении. Особый акцент сделан на содержании анализируемого концепта, который является принципиально важным для понимания картины мира, созданной писателем в своих прозаических произведениях в конце XIX века. В этой связи рассказ «Страх» рассматривается в сопоставлении с теми рассказами писателя, где слова «страх», «страшный» выносятся в заглавие. Особое внимание в статье уделено природе страха, обусловленного жизнью, что находит отражение в такой семантической составляющей концепта, как парадоксальность, которая свойственна и другим чеховским рассказам.
His article is devoted to the story of A. P. Chekhov “Fear” (1892), and the focus is on the problem of studying the features of the artistic world created by the writer through the concept in its literary understanding. The article focuses on the “fear” concept as dominant in the analyzed work. The story “Fear” is not often considered in Chekhov’s studies, meanwhile this work expresses one of the prevailing moods of Chekhov’s time and, accordingly, the socio-psychological type of behavior that became characteristic of the Russian society at the end of the 19th century. The work presents the history of the issue in connection with the term “concept” and the story “Fear” in modern literary criticism. Special emphasis is placed on the content of the analyzed concept, which is fundamentally important for understanding the view of the world created by the writer in his prose works at the end of the 19th century. In this regard, the story “Fear” is considered in comparison with those stories of the writer, where the words “fear”, “terrible” are put into the title. In the article particular attention is paid to the nature of fear caused by life, which is reflected in such a semantic component of the concept as paradox, which is also inherent in other Chekhov’s stories

В условиях распространения Covid-19 в нашей стране практически все образовательные учреждения перешли на дистанционные образовательные технологии. У преподавателей и студентов вуза не было возможности плавного перехода к дистанционной форме обучения, а сроки были максимально сжаты. Предметом исследования является отношение студентов ЧГПУ им. И. Я. Яковлева к дистанционному обучению.Исследование проводилось на основе анкетирования студентов очной формы обучения, вынужденных в условиях распространения Covid-19 перейти на новый для них формат обучения. По результатам опроса можно сделать вывод, что основная доля респондентов на сегодняшний день не готова полностью отказаться от традиционных методов обучения в пользу дистанционных образовательных технологий.Проведенное исследование показало увеличение учебной нагрузки на студентов во время дистанционного обучения, а также позволило выявить его положительные стороны (занятия в комфортной и привычной обстановке; гибкость учебного процесса; возможность совмещать работу с учебой и т. д.) и трудности, с которыми пришлось столкнуться студентам в процессе дистанционного обучения (сложность выполнения практических заданий без объяснений преподавателя, большой объем заданий, учебной информации и т. д.
In the context of the spread of Covid-19 in our country, almost all educational institutions have switched to distance educational technologies. University lecturers and students did not have a chance to go to distance learning gradually, and the terms were rather short. The subject of the research is the attitude of Yakovlev University students to distance learning.The study was carried out on the basis of the results of the questionnaire on the transition to a new form of education in the context of Covid-19. This questionnaire was held among full-time students who had experienced that transition. According to the results of the survey, it can be concluded that the majority of the respondents today are not ready to completely abandon the traditional form of learning in favor of distance learning technologies.The study showed an increase in the study load on students during distance learning, and also made it possible to identify its positive aspects (learning in a comfortable and familiar environment; flexibility of the educational process; the ability to combine work with study, etc.) and the difficulties that students were to face in the process of distance learning (the difficulty of completing practical tasks without explanations from the lecturer, a large amount of information asked, etc.).
Défis et enjeux des coordinations dans les systèmes alimentaires du milieu (SYAM). Une analyse par la sociologie de la traduction
Authors: Lequin Julie 
Published: January 2021

Le champ de recherche des systèmes alimentaires alternatifs foisonne : de nouvelles formes innovantes et hybrides de systèmes alimentaires apparaissent, comme les Systèmes alimentaires du milieu (SYAM). La question des processus qui sous-tendent l’émergence et la stabilisation des coordinations des acteurs au sein de ces systèmes reste encore à approfondir. Pour répondre à cette question, nous analysons grâce à la sociologie de la traduction qui permet de faire un suivi longitudinal de l’action, la construction pas à pas de la mise en réseau d’acteurs participant à une action commune : celle de développer un SYAM. L’article témoigne du caractère non stabilisé des SYAM : il se construit par une alternance de phases d’élargissement et de contraction et au gré de mises en tension liées à des enjeux de coordination et d’hybridation qui leur sont propres. L’article témoigne enfin de comment les SYAM relèvent ou non les défis liés à ces enjeux. Codes JEL : D74

Authors: Boonyoung Nongnut , Kamonmarttayakul Katekanok , Phumdoung Sasitorn 
Published: January 2021

Background:
This study investigated the effectiveness of a modified hybrid brainstorming (MHB) program against conventional brainstorming (CB) to achieve idea generation during innovation initiatives in nursing.

Method:

Pretest and posttest outcomes comparing the two brainstorming methods were tested during a training exercise (
N
= 56). The MHB group (
n
= 29) was trained to apply CB for problem identification and MHB for idea generation. The CB group (
n
= 27) was trained to apply only CB.

Results:

The MHB method significantly enhanced idea fluency, flexibility, and originality from pretest to posttest (
p
< .05) and increased idea fluency and originality to a greater extent than the CB method.

Conclusion:

The MHB learning program can enhance nurses' innovative idea generation by promoting idea fluency and originality.

Using the RETeval Device in Healthy Children to Establish Normative Electroretinogram Values
Authors: Soekamto Christa D. , Gupta Rishabh , Keck Katie M. 
Published: January 2021

Purpose:
To provide normative data of full-field electro-retinogram (ERG) responses in the pediatric population using the RETeval ERG device (LKC Technologies, Inc) in healthy children without evidence of retinal disease.

Methods:
This was a single-site cross-sectional study of healthy pediatric patients with normal dilated fundus examinations and no known retinal diseases. Participants were recruited to undergo dilated full-field ERG using the handheld RETeval device. The International Society for Clinical Electrophysiology of Vision 5-step protocol was used. Photopic and dark-adapted scotopic responses were recorded using skin electrodes.

Results:

Main outcome measures were normative RETeval ERG values and correlation of age with measured ERG parameters. Thirty-eight eyes of 20 healthy patients (aged 4 to 17 years) were included in the study. Of the 20 normal patients, 9 were male and 11 were female. Normative mean, median, and range values were recorded for the measured full-field ERG parameters. Pearson correlation was moderately positive between age and oscillatory potential and scotopic dim flash amplitude (
r
= 0.59,
P
= .006 for both). A positive correlation was also found between age and cone a-wave implicit time (
r
= 0.67,
P
= .001).

Conclusions:
The handheld RETeval system is a useful tool for obtaining full-field ERGs in children without anesthesia. Moderate positive correlations were observed between age and oscillatory potential and scotopic dim flash amplitude. A strong correlation was found between age and cone a-wave implicit time. The current study provides a baseline of normative full-field ERG values in children.

Authors: Inagaki Risako , Suzuki Hiroko , Haseoka Takashi , Arai Shinji , Takagi Yuri , Hikoya Akiko , Komori Miwa , Hotta Yoshihiro , Sato Miho 
Published: January 2021

Purpose:
To investigate the effect of the gaze fixation position on measurement of the limbus and extraocular muscle (EOM) insertion site distance using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT).

Methods:
Patients undergoing horizontal EOM surgeries were enrolled in this prospective experimental study. The distance between the angle recess and the muscle insertion site was measured using AS-OCT while patients fixed their gaze laterally or medially at inner or outer gaze fixation. The distance between the limbus and muscle insertion was intraoperatively measured using calipers.

Results:

A total of 46 lateral rectus muscles and 36 medial rectus muscles of 44 patients were evaluated. Significant differences were observed between intra-operative measurements (6.3 ± 0.7 mm) and AS-OCT measurements (5.8 ± 0.7 mm) for the lateral rectus muscle at inner gaze fixation (
P
= .0017) and medial rectus muscle at outer gaze fixation (
P
= .0003); no difference was observed when the lateral rectus (6.4 ± 0.5 mm) and medial rectus (4.9 ± 0.6 mm) muscles were measured at outer and inner gaze fixation, respectively. Bland-Altman plots showed better consistency at outer gaze fixation than at inner gaze fixation for the lateral rectus muscle; the opposite was observed for the medial rectus muscle. More than 80% of the AS-OCT measurements were within 1 mm of the intraoperative measurements at outer gaze fixation for the lateral rectus muscle and inner gaze fixation for the medial rectus muscle.

Conclusions:
Gaze fixation at outer gaze fixation for the lateral rectus muscle and inner gaze fixation for the medial rectus muscle was an appropriate technique to assess limbus and EOM insertion using AS-OCT.

Actual Visual Acuity Demands in the Classroom
Authors: Adams Carolina , Leach Shelby , Kresch Yocheved S. , Brooks Steven E. 
Published: January 2021

Purpose:
To address the knowledge gap regarding the actual acuity requirements needed in typical kindergarten through grade 12 classrooms by determining an actual logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) and contrast sensitivity requirements in a sample of classrooms for kindergarten through grade 12 in New York City.

Methods:
Measurements of classroom dimensions with specific attention to viewing distances were made in public and private school classrooms, at various grade levels from kindergarten through grade 12, in New York City. The dimensions of typical text shown to students on classroom smartboards and whiteboards was measured and the mean and range of logMAR values were calculated for various seating locations within the classrooms. Contrast between text and background was estimated by comparing digital images of actual classroom text to Pelli-Robson contrast sensitivity charts.

Results:

Fourteen classrooms in five schools were evaluated. Classroom dimensions varied from 8 × 10 feet to 23 × 23 feet. Mean logMAR values of lower case text on smartboards and whiteboards varied from 0.93 ± 0.29 (range: 0.83 to 1.32) in the center of the front row to 0.46 ± 0.21 (range: 0.10 to 0.79) in the center of the back row (
P
< .001). Contrast was also variable, being highest for black markers on whiteboards (0.00) and lowest on smartboards (0.15 to 0.60). Neither logMAR nor contrast sensitivity values varied significantly by grade level or school (
P
> .50 for both).

Conclusions:
The data reveal that logMAR demands and contrast vary substantially from classroom to classroom and within a classroom based on room dimensions and seating. Although generally supporting current acuity-based pediatric vision screening referral guidelines, the data also provide insight into the potential impact of reduced visual acuity and seating location on visual performance in the classroom. These findings suggest the need to develop logMAR and contrast standards that optimize visual content in classrooms while accommodating a wider range of visual capabilities.

The –250G>A polymorphism in the hepatic lipase gene promoter influences plasma lipid profile and lipoprotein ratio in patients with ischemic stroke
Authors: Momoh Johnson Oshiobugie , Osuntoki Akinniyi Adediran , Ebuehi Osaretin Albert Taiwo , Ajibaye Olusola 
Published: January 2021

Objective:
To evaluate the influence of –250G>A (rs2070895) polymorphism in hepatic lipase gene (LIPC) promoter on plasma lipid parameters of ischemic stroke patients.

Methods:
A total of 100 stroke patients and 100 control subjects matched for sex (59 men and 41 women) and age were selected. Hepatic lipase activity and lipid profiles were measured while lipoprotein ratios were calculated. Genotyping of the –250G>A promoter polymorphism of the LIPC was performed by the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism method combined with 2% gel electrophoresis and then confirmed by direct sequencing. The LIPC promoter gene sequencing data were compared with refseqNG011465.1 LIPC from GenBank.

Results:
The frequencies of GG, GA and AA genotypes of LIPC rs2070895 polymorphism were 39%, 45% and 16% for the control, 10%, 37% and 53% for the stroke subjects (P<0.000 1), respectively. The frequencies of G and A alleles were 61.5% and 38.5% for the control, and 28.5% and 71.5% for the stroke subjects (P<0.000 1). Our study shows that the mutant allele of the LIPC promoter was associated with dyslipidemia, lower hepatic lipase activity, and this variation contributed to the increased defective plasma high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), HDL2-C and HDL3-C concentration for both subjects. The control subjects had 6 single nucleotide polymorphism and 6 amino acid substitutions while the stroke subjects had 32 single nucleotide polymorphism and 20 amino acid substitutions.

Conclusions:

LIPC –250G>A polymorphism can influence plasma lipid profiles and lipoprotein ratios in patients with ischemic stroke.
A comparative study of factors for interruption of antitubercular treatment among defaulters in urban and rural areas of Kamrup District, Assam
Authors: Ahmed Mustaque , Mohan Roopshekhar 
Published: January 2021

Background:
Defaulting from treatment is an important challenge for tuberculosis (TB) control. As per the Revised National Tuberculosis Control Programme quarterly reports of Kamrup District (Assam), among the registered cases default rate was 13.3%(2008) & 13.1 % (2009).

Objectives:
To elicit reasons & factors responsible for interruption of treatment from a cohort of TB defaulters of urban & rural areas in Kamrup District.

Methods:
The cross-sectional study was conducted among 1/3rd of all defaulters who were put on Directly Observed Treatment Short-course chemotherapy in 2011 under 1 urban Tuberculosis Unit (TU) & 2 rural TUs of Kamrup District. From these 3 TUs, total 210 patients interrupted treatment in 2011; so 70 defaulters (35 from 1 urban TU & 35 from 2 rural TUs) were interviewed in their residences by using a pretested and predesigned schedule. Study was conducted in January - June, 2012.

Results:
Majority of the defaulters was illiterate (51.4%) in rural areas but in urban areas majority studied upto high school level (37.1%). Maximum defaulters were in the age group 25-44 years (55.7% in urban areas & 62.9% in rural areas). The number of defaulters decreased uniformly with increasing income in the rural areas & but not so in urban areas. More number of new cases defaulted in rural areas (82.8%) compared to urban areas (57.1%). Improvement in symptoms was found to be the most common reason (45.7% in urban areas & 40 % in rural areas), leading to treatment interruption.

Conclusions:
Early improvement in symptom was the most common reason leading to treatment interruption. Continuous health education should be provided to TB patients emphasizing the need to continue treatment despite early improvement in symptoms.
Comparison of distal radiocephalic fistula vs proximal radiocephalic fistula
Authors: Mishra Biswajit 
Published: January 2021

Background:
Distal radiocephalic fistula (DRCF) at wrist is the first option of vascular access in patients undergoing hemodialysis. In patients with a failed DRCF or unsuitable for DRCF the current recommendation is to perform a brachiocephalic fistula. Proximal forearm radiocephalic fistulas (PRCF) are created less frequently. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the outcomes of PRCF and DRCF.

Material and Methods:
A longitudinal study was conducted in the department of MKCG Medical College from January 2018 to July 2019. Data was collected and entered in Microsoft excel. The analysis was done by R version 3.6.1. Quantitative data were presented in the form of Mean and SD and were tested by unpaired t-test. Categorical data were presented as count and proportion and was tested by Chi-square test or if applicable Fischer's exact test. Comparison between two procedures was done by Kaplan-Meier method and evaluated by the log-rank test. With the 95% of Level of significance, P value <0.05 was consider statistically significant during analysis.

Results:
The demographic data of the two patient groups were similar except that those with PRCF were more likely to have had a previous access and caliber of distal vessel was less. Early failure was lower for PRCF than DRCF (6.06% vs 15%). Primary patency rate at one year was 87.87% in PRCF vs 70% in DRCF.

Conclusion:
A PRCF can be a suitable alternative to a brachiocephalic fistula in patients who cannot receive a DRCF.

Published: January 2021

Background:
Under-nutrition has got serious and lasting impact on health, development, society and economy. It may result in poor growth, development of child and can cause increase mortality, morbidity, health care cost, low productivity and economic growth. Nutritional rehabilitation is one of key intervention to address the under nutrition. It is questionable that nutritional intervention has potential to improve multiple domains.

Methods:
Follow up study evaluated the multi-domain impact of nutritional interventions on 204 admitted Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) children. Data was analyzed with SPSS version 20.

Results:
Significant positive changes were observed in physical, biochemical, developmental domains. Macnemar, paired t- test, co relation, z test were applied for data analysis.

Conclusion:
Nutritional intervention was found to be effective in improving selected physical, biochemical and developmental parameters. After discharge rate of improvement in anthropometric parameters was less. Actual quantification of recovery especially in biochemical and developmental parameters due to nutritional intervention is difficult.
A qualitative exploratory study of delay in the presentation of gastrointestinal cancer
Authors: Sathoo Saarat , Nachiappan Deivanai Sundaram , Sureshkumar Sathasivam , Anandhi Amaranathan 
Published: January 2021

Introduction:
Patients with gastrointestinal (GI) cancers often present late in the advanced stages, due to various reasons and may experience delays in treatment. Hence, we have attempted to find the factors leading to this delay.

Methods:
This was an exploratory qualitative study, in a tertiary care hospital, including 20 patients with advanced GI cancers. They were interviewed to assess the reasons for delays in presentation, diagnosis and treatment, and the factors were analysed based on the interval of delay and the cause.

Results:
This study found that there was an interval of delay of 8 months from the onset of symptoms till primary treatment, more than half of which occurred in the pre-hospital phase (56.4%). We classified the causes for the delay into different intervals such as the appraisal interval, health-seeking interval, diagnostic interval and the pre-treatment interval. Lapses at the individual, societal and institutional level lead to the delay. The major causes included ignorance, substance abuse, poverty, social stigma, vague symptoms and missed diagnosis, miscommunication, resource constrain, very poor doctor-patient ratio and delay in investigation and treatment.

Conclusion:
This study noted a significant delay in the treatment of patients with advanced gastrointestinal cancers. Reasons for delay have been noted at various levels. Further action based on this study, at the community and hospital level could potentially reduce the delay and result in better survival and improved quality of life.
