Authors: Жутанова Гульмира Атанбековна 
Published: March 2021

Цель исследования. В данной статье анализируются социально-педагогические ценности в народном фольклоре, которые рассматриваются как средство воспитания в формировании и развитии личности.
Методология исследования основывается на философско-культурологических идеях, отраженных в творчетве таких мыслителей, как Ф. Ницше, П. Сорокин, О. Данилевский и др.
Результаты исследования. Делается вывод о том, что воспитательное значение мифических поверий на определенном уровне создает средства культурных ценностей. Мифические поверья, прочно сформировшись в психическом процессе первобытных людей, далее с течением времени, передаваясь из поколения в поколение, из века в век превратились в духовные ценности и важные средства воспитания. Возрождение архаической культуры может стать основой для сохранения мира от кризисов и его дальнейшего развития.

Surgical Reconstruction of Isolated Upper Trunk Brachial Plexus Birth Injuries in the Presence of an Avulsed C5 or C6 Nerve Root
Authors: Davidge Kristen M. , Ho Emily S. , Curtis Christine G. , Clarke Howard M. 
Published: March 2021

Background:
Avulsion of either the C5 or C6 root with intact middle and lower trunks in brachial plexus birth injury is rare. In these cases, only 1 proximal root is available for intraplexal reconstruction. The purpose of the present study was to determine the outcomes of these patients when single-root reconstruction was balanced across the anterior and posterior elements of the upper trunk.

Methods:
We performed a retrospective cohort study of prospectively collected data for patients with brachial plexus birth injury who underwent primary nerve reconstruction between 1993 and 2014. Patients were included who had isolated upper-trunk injuries with intact middle and lower trunks. The study group had avulsion of either the C5 or C6 root. The control group had neuroma-in-continuity or ruptures of the upper trunk. Outcomes were assessed with use of the Active Movement Scale and the Brachial Plexus Outcome Measure. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was utilized to evaluate changes across treatment.

Results:
Ten patients with brachial plexus birth injury were included in the avulsion cohort. Surgical reconstruction entailed neuroma resection and nerve grafting from the single available root balanced across all distal targets with or without spinal accessory-to-suprascapular nerve transfer. Significant improvements were observed across treatment for both the avulsion and control groups in terms of shoulder abduction, shoulder flexion, external rotation, elbow flexion, and supination. At a mean follow-up of 54.5 ± 8.8 months, patients in the avulsion group achieved Active Movement Scale scores of 6.8 ± 0.4 for elbow flexion and 6.5 ± 0.9 for shoulder flexion and abduction, with lesser recovery observed in external rotation (3.3 ± 2.8). All patients available for Brachial Plexus Outcome Measure assessments demonstrated functional movement.

Conclusions:
In the setting of avulsion of 1 upper-trunk root, nerve reconstruction by grafting of the upper trunk from the other upper-trunk root provides improved movement, high Active Movement Scale scores, and satisfactory function according to the Brachial Plexus Outcome Measure. These data provide support for a strategy that ensures the entire upper trunk is adequately reconstructed in the setting of upper-trunk lesions.

Arthroscopic Simulation: The Future of Surgical Training
Authors: Lakhani Saad , Selim Omar A. , Saeed Muhammad Zahid 
Published: March 2021

Background:
Arthroscopic simulation has rapidly evolved recently with the introduction of higher-fidelity simulation models, such as virtual reality simulators, which provide trainees an environment to practice skills without causing undue harm to patients. Simulation training also offers a uniform approach to learn surgical skills with immediate feedback. The aim of this article is to review the recent research investigating the use of arthroscopy simulators in training and the teaching of surgical skills.

Methods:
A systematic review of the Embase, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases for English-language articles published before December 2019 was conducted. The search terms included arthroscopy or arthroscopic in combination with simulation or simulator.

Results:
We identified a total of 44 relevant studies involving benchtop or virtually simulated ankle, knee, shoulder, and hip arthroscopy environments. The majority of these studies demonstrated construct and transfer validity; considerably fewer studies demonstrated content and face validity.

Conclusions:
Our review indicates that there is a considerable evidence base regarding the use of arthroscopy simulators for training purposes. Further work should focus on the development of a more uniform simulator training course that can be compared with current intraoperative training in large-scale trials with long-term follow-up at tertiary centers.
Lahroud, a Paleo-Tethys Remnant in Northwestern Iran: Implications for Geochemistry, Radioisotope Geochronology, and Tectonic Setting
Authors: Hassanpour S. 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
—The Lahroud Ophiolite in northwestern Iran contains extensive zones of Paleozoic ophiolite as remnants of the Paleo-Tethys oceanic crust. The principal rock units are gabbro overlain by pillow basalt, which is intruded by granites and interbedded with pelagic sedimentary units including radiolarian cherts. Geochemistry and radioisotope studies, supported by Nd, Sm, Sr, and Pb isotope data, indicate that the Lahroud Ophiolite originates from a within-plate basaltic mantle source. The isotope studies show that the basalts are derived from Indian-type oceanic mantle sources. The radiogenic data indicate the involvement of subduction-related terrigenous materials in the source magma. All the rocks are geochemically cogenetic and were generated by fractionation of a melt with a composition of average E-MORB with a calc-alkaline signature. Two 40Ar/39Ar ages, 343 ± 3 Ma for muscovite minerals and 187.7 ± 7.7 Ma for glasses, suggest that metamorphic and basaltic rocks formed during the Late Paleozoic to Early Jurassic, respectively. Microfossil studies show the presence of Paleozoic biostratigraphy. The crystallization process and rifting into the oceanic crust in the Lahroud Ophiolite probably began in the Carboniferous, with volcanic activity continuing during the Late Triassic.

Abstract
Stress-induced dopaminergic (DAergic) neuronal death in the midbrain region is the primary cause of Parkinson’s disease (PD). From the discovery of L-dopa, multiple drugs were discovered to improve lifestyle of PD patients, but they failed due to their multiple side effects. Tinospora cordifolia (Tc), a medicinal herb has been used in traditional medicines to treat neurodegenerative diseases. In our previous study, the neuroprotective role of Tc against MPTP intoxicated Parkinsonian mice was reported. Here, we further explore the neuroprotective molecular mechanisms of Tc in Rotenone (ROT) intoxicated mouse model through proteomics approach. Mice were pretreated with Tc extract by oral administration, followed by ROT-intoxication. Behavioral tests were performed to check motor functions of mice. Protein was isolated, and label free quantification (LFQ) was carried out to identify differentially expressed protein (DEPs) in control vs. PD and PD vs. treatment group. In this study, we report 800 DEPs in control vs. PD and 133 in PD vs. Treatment group. In silico tools clearly demonstrate significant enrichment of biochemical and molecular pathways with DEPs which are known to be important for PD progression including mitochondrial gene expression, PD pathways, TGF-β signaling, Alzheimer’s disease etc. This results were further validated by qRT-PCR and found that the expression of target gene were identical to the proteomics data. This study provides a novel insight for the disease progression as well new therapeutic tagets. More importantly, it demonstrates that Tc exerts the therapeutic effects through the regulation of multiple pathways to protect DAergic neurons.

Abstract
The interaction of groundwater (GW) and surface water (SW) not only sustains the runoff in dry seasons, but also plays an important role in regulating aquatic ecosystems. Hydrological engineers proposed the idea of modeling flood routing using the Muskingum-Cunge method. This study proposes an improved nonlinear Muskingum-Cunge flood routing model considering lateral inflow, which is denoted as NMCL1 and NMCL2 that can simulate the flood routing and calculate GW-SW exchange. In addition, both the linear and nonlinear lateral inflow (with the channel inflow) are discussed, and both the stable lateral inflow due to GW-SW exchange and the lateral inflow changing with the river inflow are considered for the first time. Sensitivity analysis has shown that different parameters have different effects on the simulation results. Three different flood cases documented in literature with one measured from Zhongtian River, China, were selected to compare the classical and the updated Muskingum-Cunge methods. Two different floods of the River Wye are selected to verify the accuracy of the calibrated model. Comparison has shown that, for several cases, the proposed method is capable of obtaining the optimal simulation results. The proposed method can estimate the GW-SW interaction and lateral inflow reliably, and inherits the ability of Maskingum-Cunge in flood routing. Moreover, the new Muskingum-Cunge method can quantify GW-SW exchange, and the estimation has reliably owned to the nonlinearity and sign flexibility of the calculated exchange process.
A Comparative Assessment of Multi-criteria Decision Analysis for Flood Susceptibility Modeling&nbsp;
Authors: Tabarestani Ehsan Shahiri , Afzalimehr Hossein 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
Floods are one of the most damaging natural disasters throughout the world. The purpose of this study is to develop a reliable model for identification of flood susceptible areas. Three Multi-criteria decision-making techniques, namely Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), and Attributive Border Approximation Area Comparison (MABAC) methods combined with weight of evidence (WOE) were used in Mazandaran Province, Iran. MABAC method is applied to determine the flood susceptibility in this study, for the first time. At first, 160 flood locations were identified in the study area, of which 112 (70%) locations were selected randomly for modeling, and the remaining 48 (30%) locations were used for validation. Using Geographic Information System (GIS) with eight conditioning factors including rainfall, distance from rivers, slope, soil, geology, elevation, drainage density, and land use, the flood susceptibility maps were prepared. The results showed that the area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) for the test data of AHP-WOE, TOPSIS-WOE-AHP, and MABAC-WOE-AHP methods were 75.3%, 91.6%, and 86.1%, respectively, which indicate the reasonable accuracy of models. High accuracy of the proposed new model (MABAC) clarifies its applicability for preventive measures.

Published: March 2021

Abstract
In this paper, we report a spectral beam combining technique based on discrete quantum cascade lasers at l~ 4.8 mm. Good beam qualities of M 2 < 1.3 for both fast and slow axes are obtained. The entire spectrum span is approximately 29.1 cm -1 , which is consistent with the theoretical results of grating equation. Maximum beam combining efficiency of 58.9% with output power exceeding 1 W is demonstrated under continuous wave operation at room temperature. The limit of beam combining efficiency is theoretically investigated. The independent temperature control for the discrete lasers circumvented the issue of thermal crosstalk between the lasers on an array and pave the way to high power and high efficiency laser spectral beam combining.
