Authors: Kuks A. N. , Katamanova E. V. , Tikhonova I. V. , Pavlenko N. A. , Panchukova K. V. 
Published: August 2021

Background. The severity of the course of silicosis is aggravated by the addition of complications; one of the serious and rare complication of silicosis is silicoarthritis or Kaplan’s syndrome (KS), which accounts for 0.1-0.6% of all cases of silicosis. Silicoarthritis significantly reduces the quality of the life of patients and leads to early and persistent disability.Aim. To establish the most significant methods of diagnosing silicoarthritis for early detection of the disease and prevention of complications.Materials and methods. The article presents clinical cases of silicosis and its rare complication - SC. The basis for the diagnosis of this pathology is X-ray, immunological and functional methods.Results. In patients with more than 5 years of experience exposed to aerosols of fibrogenic action, crystalline silicon dioxide, with an excess of the MPC level from 2.3 to 4 times on the basis of MSCT of the lungs, during which multiple polymorphic foci with a diameter of 2 up to 10 mm, partly merging with each other into peribronchovascular couplings, as well as perifocal areas of reduced airiness like ground glass and thickening of the axial interstitium, a diagnosis of late silicosis, stage 2 nodular form was established, the diagnosis was confirmed by biopsy data. In dynamics, after 5 years, arthralgic complaints joined. On the basis of immunological (increased TNF-alpha, IL-1b), X-ray examination (osteoarthritis of the distal and proximal interphalangeal, wrist, metatarsophalangeal joints), the diagnosis was clarified as Silicoarthritis: Kaplan’s syndrome.Conclusion. Diagnosis of silicosis and its complications at the preclinical stage in workers who have been in contact with silica dust for 5 years or more should include: MSCT of the lungs, determination of TNF-alpha, IL-1b, rheumatoid factor, and a study of respiratory function.

Published: August 2021

Background. In modern society, the growth of the overweight and obese population increase every year. This confirms the status assigned to the problem under consideration as a non-infectious epidemic of the 21st century. At the same time, the amount of scientific information about the influence of excess weight on various aspects of human life is actively increasing. This undoubtedly requires a systematic generalization of the available data.Aims. The presented literature review is devoted to the analysis of modern scientific research on the specificity of cognitive impairment in overweight and obese people.Materials and methods. Information search was carried out using Internet resources (PubMed, Web of Science, eLibrary.ru, frontiersin.org, sciencedirect. com, ncbi.nlm.nih.gov), literature sources were analyzed for the period from 2001 to 2020 for the following keywords: obesity, overweight, cognitive functions, cognitions, cognitive impairments.Results. As a result of the literature review, the main directions of research on the relationship between cognitive impairment and overweight, as well as the relationship between cognitive dysfunction and obesity, were identified. The specificity of diametrically opposed opinions within the framework of each consecrated trend is presented. According to the results of the analysis of the identified areas, in the scientific community the most common point of view is the presence of a connection between obesity and cognitive impairment. In this connection, the authors identified the main cognitive impairments associated with excess weight and their mediating mechanisms. And also the age specificity of the problem under study is indicated.Conclusions. Despite the fact that the problem of the relationship between obesity, overweight and cognitive functions is comprehensively studied, there is a shortage of data on the state of thinking, attention, praxis, gnosis, and speech in overweight people.

Purpose. Determination of the SARS-CoV-2 population humoral immunity among the population of the Krasnoyarsk Territory during the COVID-19 epidemic.Materials and methods. The study was carried out as a part of project for assessing population immunity to SARS-CoV-2 among the population of Russian Federation using unified methodology developed by Rospotrebnadzor, with the participation of the Research Institute for Epidemiology and Microbiology named by Pasteur, and taking into account the recommendations of the WHO. The work involved 2907 volunteers, selected by the online survey and randomization by age and territory. All volunteers were divided into 7 age groups: 1–17, 18–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–59, 60–69, 70 and older (70+), including a total 246–449 people. Population immunity testing was carried out during the formation of groups (1st stage), and then twice more, with the interval of 6–8 weeks. Serum was obtained from venous blood samples obtained from volunteers, in which antibodies to the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid were determined by the enzyme immunoassay. The results were analyzed by methods of nonparametric statistics: median, interquartile range, rank correlation coefficient were calculated in the Excel statistical package. The confidence interval to seroprevalence indicators (95% CI) was calculated using the WinPepi statistical package (version 11.65). The statistical significance of the differences was assessed with a probability level of p ≤ 0.05.Results. The seroprevalence of the population of the Krasnoyarsk Territory during the 5-month period of seromonitoring had increased 3.3 times from 12.8% (95% CI 11.3–14.4) to 41.7% (95% CI 39.4–4.0) , while the grouping by age had not revealed any peculiarities throughout the study. The trend towards a decrease in the incidence was formed on the 6th week of 2021. The seroprevalence of convalescents after COVID-19 during the initial testing was 61.5% (95% CI 40,6–79.8), among those who were in contact with patients with COVID-19 or convalescents –23.8% (95% CI 13.9–36.2) . Among the volunteers, 347 seropositive persons were identified, 324 of which were observed asymptomatic course.Conclusion. The structure of the population humoral immunity to SARS-CoV-2 of he population of the Krasnoyarsk Territory has been investigated. It was found that an increase in seroprevalence to 41.7% (95% CI 39.4–4.0) was accompanied by a decrease in morbidity.
Framing of the Syrian Conflict in the Russian Media
Authors: Issaev Leonid , Eremeeva Kristina 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
The research studies the features of coverage of the Syrian conflict by Russian media. In scientific discourse, there are a number of works studying the information support for the civil war in Syria, which is explained by its specificity – a multilateral, multi-level protracted conflict creates an opportunity for a varied interpretation of events and causal relationships. The way events in Syria are presented in various regions of Russia is of particular interest. In the course of this study, a database of media articles, both federal and regional (Dagestan, Tatarstan, Chechnya), was collected. The articles were then analyzed from the point of view of the prevailing semantic codes, which made it possible to identify how the Syrian conflict is framed, as well as the similarities and differences of different regions’ frames.
Consolidating the Putin Regime: The 2020 Referendum on Russia’s Constitutional Amendments
Authors: Hutcheson Derek S. , McAllister Ian 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
In July 2020, Russian voters gave strong support to a package of constitutional reforms that reconfigured the Russian political system and enshrined social guarantees and conservative identity values, consolidating the regime that has been built over a 20-year period. This was achieved through an alteration that ‘zeroed’ presidential terms that commenced before the constitutional change, potentially allowing President Vladimir Putin to overcome term limits and continue in office beyond 2024. The article explains how such a far-reaching and important change was successfully endorsed by the Russian electorate. The analysis shows that the main explanation rests with variations in voting patterns across the regions, a pattern that has been evident in previous Russian elections and resulted in strong pro-Putin support. The article also evaluates questions raised about the legitimacy of the result, and its long-term significance for the Russian political system.

« Full and Useful Lives » : La déficience intellectuelle au sein du discours médical canadien (1956–1972)
Authors: Larose-Dutil Hubert 
Published: August 2021

Les articles publiés entre 1956 et 1972 au sein du Canadian Medical Association Journal ( CMAJ) et du Canadian Psychiatric Association Journal ( CPAJ) témoignent d’un certain intérêt de la communauté médicale canadienne pour le retard mental. Celle-ci se préoccupe tout particulièrement du poids économique que représente – d’après elle – le « retardé mental » et de la capacité de ce dernier à atteindre une autonomie suffisante pour être productif. Dans cet article, nous mettons en lumière l’ambition de disciplinarisation du retardé mental qui transparaît du corpus analysé. Nous analysons d’abord les propos tenus sur le diagnostic de retard mental, puis ceux portant sur les traitements, les soins et les services jugés pertinents. Enfin, nous examinons le discours véhiculé dans les deux revues sur les échecs de l’entreprise médicale d’autonomisation et de majoration économique du retardé mental.
La ingeniería: motor de la ciencia
Authors:   Universidad Mariana, Zuleta Medina Alejandra 
Published: August 2021

El evento que da vida al presente libro, el I Congreso Internacional en Ciencia e Ingeniería (CICI) se desarrolló entre el 18 y 20 de noviembre de 2020 de manera virtual, fue organizado por la Facultad de Ingeniería de la Universidad Mariana con sus programas de: Ingeniería Ambiental, Ingeniería Civil, Ingeniería de Procesos, Ingeniería Mecatrónica e Ingeniería de Sistemas. El congreso nació y creció durante la “inesperada” pandemia, la cual ha arrebatado mucho, no obstante, para las ingenieras e ingenieros, quienes siempre piensan en soluciones para todos los problemas, también se ha convertido en un reto. El I CICI es una muestra de ello; organizado completamente virtual, gracias a las maravillosas telecomunicaciones, la red de internet, los dispositivos físicos y lógicos, que hacen que el mundo esté conectado, pese a la desconexión social causada por un virus. Es posible preguntarse ¿por qué el Congreso se enfocó en Ciencia e Ingeniería? En aras de responder, debe recordarse que la etimología concede a los profesionales del área, el “ingenio en la manera de producir”. Por tanto, ellas y ellos se convierten en los científicos del progreso y las llaves que abren las puertas de todas las áreas del saber, ayudan a la humanidad a superar barreras mediante su pasión por la eficiencia. En virtud de lo anterior, después de un largo y riguroso proceso de selección, se aceptaron 67 trabajos investigativos para presentarse como ponencias durante los días del evento. Las presentaciones se realizaron en las siguientes líneas temáticas: •	Ambiente y desarrollo sostenible. •	Diseño construcción de obras de infraestructura para el desarrollo urbano y rural. •	Gestión de procesos. •	Sistemas mecatrónicos. •	Ciencias de la computación e informática. •	Enseñanza en ingeniería. •	Ingeniería y Covid-19. Durante el evento se demostró cómo en las Facultades de Ingeniería se crean métodos y estrategias para la preservación de los recursos medio ambientales, se programa el futuro, se diseña estructuras y obras seguras, se automatizan prototipos y optimizan los procesos. Así las cosas, el libro presenta un total de 13 capítulos, producto de las ponencias mejor evaluadas por cada una de las áreas. Esta iniciativa fortalece los procesos de producción de conocimiento, investigación y generación de ciencia en la Universidad Mariana y en todos los lugares en los cuales fue recibida la invitación, que se miró evidenciada en la extensa programación del Congreso. Finalmente, se motiva a niñas, niños y adolescentes a conocer el asombroso cosmos de la Ingeniería, porque pese a todas las bondades de la profesión, Colombia y el mundo aún necesitan más estudiantes de Ingeniería e ingenieros(as) graduados.

BACKGROUND: The present era of individualized treatment for breast cancer is influenced by the initial disease status including the anatomical extent, grade, and receptor status. An accurate preoperative staging is the basis of treatment planning and prognostication. Our study aims to determine the discordance between the preoperative clinical and the postoperative pathological stages of breast cancer patients. METHODOLOGY: The medical records of all non-metastatic breast cancer patients from January 2017 to December 2018 who underwent upfront surgery were reviewed. They were staged as per the eighth AJCC and the concordance between the clinical (c) and pathological T (tumor), N (nodal), and final AJCC stage was studied. A Chi-square test was used to determine factors that significantly correlate with disease discordance. RESULTS: A total of 307 breast cancer patients were analyzed. Among these, 43.3% were hormone receptor-positive, 30.6% were Her2 positive and 26% were triple-negative. Overall stage discordance was seen in 48.5% (n = 149) patients (upstaging in 22.1%, downstaging in 26.4%). The discordance rate was 48.9% for T stage (cT versus pT) and 57.4% for N stage (cN versus pN). Among patients with clinically node-negative disease, 53.4% were found to have positive nodes on histopathology, while 27.2% had vice versa. Overall, the factors associated with upstaging were ER-positive, Her2 positive and triple-negative status (all p < 0.05), while none of the factors showed significant association with downstaging. CONCLUSIONS: About half of breast cancer patients had discordance between clinical and pathological staging with higher discordance in the nodal stage. This changes the disease prognosis, and may also affect the offered surgical treatment and radiotherapy. Thus highlighting the need for a precise pre-operative staging. Also, this information will aid clinicians in discussions with patients, keeping in mind the likelihood of change in disease staging and management.

Authors: Choudhary Mukesh , Singh Abhimanyu 
Published: August 2021

Introduction: Present study was undertaken to compare the efficacy of intrathecal clonidine or buprenorphine with bupivacaine in lower abdominal surgeries.
Methods: 90 ASA I and II patients undergoing lower abdominal surgeries were randomly allocated into three groups(n=30). Group A received 3ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine with 1ml normal saline, GroupB received 3ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine with 60 mcg buprenorphine(1:5 dilution) and Group C received 3ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine with 30mcg clonidine (1:5 dilution) respectively (Total volume 4ml). Onset time and duration of sensory and motor block, duration of analgesia, hemodynamics, VAS score, sedation score and side effect were compared.
Results: The duration of analgesia was significantly longest in GroupC (354.50±38.48min), followed by Group B (277.10±25.47min) and Group A(131.50±20.15min) (p<0.001)
Conclusion: Clonidine (30mcg) and buprenorphine (60mcg) when used as adjuvants to 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine intrathecally produces significantly longer duration and better quality of postoperative analgesia than bupivacaine alone.
Keywords: clonidine, buprenorphine, intrathecal, postoperative analgesia.

Authors: Nureni Azeez A. , Ogunlusi Victor E. , Uloko Emmanuel Junior 
Published: August 2021

Sentiment analysis involves techniques used in analyzing texts in order to identify the sentiment and emotion dominant in such texts and classify them accordingly. Techniques involved include but not limited to preprocessing of texts and the use a machine learning or lexical based approach in classifying these texts. In this research, attempt was made to adopt a machine learning approach to classify tweets on Covid-19 which is considered a global pandemic. To achieve this noble objective, a cross-dataset approach was applied to train four machine learning classification algorithms: Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF) and Naïve Bayes (NB), as well as K-Nearest Neighbors algorithm (KNN). The final result will not only assist us in knowing the best performing algorithm, it will also assist in creating awareness on Covid-19 with the final objective of destigmatizing the patients through the analysis of sentiments and emotions on Covid-19 and finally use the same result for containing the spread of the pandemic
REVITALISASI PRANATA SOSIAL DAN REKONSTRUKSI PENYELENGGARAAN MUSRENBANG
Authors: Peribadi Peribadi , Tawulo Megawati Asrul 
Published: August 2021

The study aims to develop a strategic formulation by means of integrating and synthesizing traditional typical planning pattern called Meobu-Obu and Musrenbang (Community consultation on development planning held annually from village level to national level) as participatory development planning occurring so far in the area of South Konawe Regency Government. The attempts of reconstructing and functionalizing rural social institutions were developed through community studies, participatory studies and eclectic case studies. The results show that the process of utilizing Village Funds (VF) still focuses more on physical development aspect rather than the aspect of community socio-economic empowerment. Meanwhile, the process of organizing the Musrenbang tends to be formalistic to merely abort the procedural aspects. Similarly, the institution of kalosara still wrestles with ritualistic field of un sich continuosly, so that the sacralization of kalosara culture has not entered the developmental field yet. It is exactly in this context that the result of research offers a formulation of Musrenbang based on cultural value of kalosara to be used in the future in the attempt of building the rural areas, particularly in the mainland of Southeast Sulawesi Province.
