High Mortality Rates from Road Traffic Accidents in the Russian Federation: Possible Causes and Ways to Overcome Challenges
Authors: Popov A. V. , Kaimakova U. M. , Stetsky N. P. 
Published: September 2019

Road traffic accidents cause enormous material and moral damage both to the society as a whole and to individual citizens. According to the data, the Russian Federation is among countries with highest road traffic mortality rates within European Region of the World Health Organization.The objective of the study was to attempt to identify possible causes of high mortality rates from traffic accidents on the roads of the Russian Federation and to reveal ways to reduce those rates.To that purpose a survey of citizens of the Russian Federation who are driver’s license owners and who are experienced drivers was conducted in different regions of the country. The results identified low medical literacy in terms of provision of first aid to the injured persons as one of the causes.Other factors, potentially capable to reduce the number of fatalities in road traffic accidents, once their performance indicators improve, have also been considered. Those indicators comprise time of arrival of ambulance crews at the site of an accident with enough medical equipment and medicines, interaction of emergency services, growth of efficiency of training in providing primary medical care at driving schools.
Safety Culture as an Element of Organisation Culture of Transport Companies
Authors: Efimova O. V. , Komarova Yu. V. 
Published: September 2019

To perform the basic management functions, a developed organizational culture is required. It is based on a system of common values, beliefs and norms that are formed for all employees of a given organization as a result of a complex process of interacting.The article proposes to consider the «safety culture» (including, for example, traffic safety culture, environmental safety, labor activity safety culture) as an element interconnected with all other elements of organizational culture. This is especially relevant for transport companies, including JSC Russian Railways, where technology development and technological sophistication are progressing rapidly andwhere, for objective reasons related to nature of the activity, the level of occupational injuries is high.Organizational culture is considered in the article, as a set of functional cultures in the field of corporate management, interaction and communication, labor organization, safety culture, and interaction with external clients.JSC Russian Railways uses modern technologies and sophisticated technology in its activities, while there are infrastructural restrictions; all this is a source of safety risks and threats. Therefore, the maturity level of safety culture, as well as its assessment are of great importance both for development of the organizational culture, and for the company.

Authors: Zaytsev A. A. , Troitskiy P. S. 
Published: September 2019

The advantages of introduction of modular freight electric trains in comparison with freight trains using locomotive traction are described, the main prerequisites for introduction of a distributed multiple-unit freight traction are indicated. The results of comparison of the technology of transportation with traction by locomotive situated at the head of the train and by the train with self-propelled coaches, as well as the analysis of traction calculations of two types of trains are suggested. The international experience of developing freight trains with distributed traction is described.The main directions of implementation of the concept of accelerating freight transportation on the territory of the Russian Federation are noted. It is concluded that in modern conditions, when speed becomes an economic category, it is necessary to create rolling stock of a new generation (wheel and magnetic suspension), and introduction of freight trains with distributed traction becomes extremely relevant.
La dinámica socioambiental en el espacio santacruceño. Peculiaridades de la relación entre la población y el medio natural desde una perspectiva geográfica
Authors: Cuadra Dante Edin 
Published: September 2019

<p>La provincia de Santa Cruz conforma un espacio de excepción desde el punto de vista natural, que ha potenciado efectos favorables y desfavorables según las valorizaciones externas a las que han estado sujetos sus recursos naturales a través del tiempo. Desde fines del siglo XIX a comienzos del XXI este territorio ha pasado por un proceso de transformaciones, en el que se reconocen ciclos geohistóricos impulsados por el aprovechamiento económico de sus recursos, que han tenido como común denominador un costo ambiental en el cual han desempeñado un papel relevante el componente político, el mercado externo, las características del poblamiento y del sistema natural implicado en las valorizaciones. La metodología de trabajo se afirma en los postulados de la Geografía Histórica, combinando estrategias que permiten integrar las visiones cuantitativa, sistémica, ambiental, regional y sociocultural. Lo original de esta investigación radica, primeramente, en reconocer y demostrar que se trata de un espacio natural singular; luego, en aportar un análisis evolutivo de la ocupación humana de este territorio, detallando exhaustivamente la composición de la población y su dinamismo y, por último, en identificar áreas diferenciadas y ciclos geohistóricos en los que se llevó a cabo el proceso socioeconómico, advirtiendo los efectos que los mismos han ido generando en el ambiente, entendido éste como la conjunción de elementos naturales y antrópicos. Esta visión integradora del espacio y del tiempo, se presenta como insumo muy útil para entender la organización funcional de este ambiente y, de ese modo, proponer una planificación territorial ajustada a la realidad.</p><p> </p>
Cambios en las actividades agropecuarias y forestales de la provincia del Chaco (Argentina) y sus efectos sobre la población rural

Published: September 2019

<p>La primera actividad económica del Territorio del Chaco fue la explotación forestal. Al iniciarse el siglo XX se instalaron fábricas para explotar el quebracho colorado y obtener extracto de tanino. Con el paso del tiempo se fueron agregando, en forma incipiente, la agricultura y la cría de animales. A este tramo, comprendido entre fines del siglo XIX y 1930 se lo reconoce como el “Ciclo Foresto-industrial”. Entre 1930 y 1960 se desarrolló el “Ciclo Algodonero”, que representó el primer avance de la frontera agrícola, impulsó el poblamiento de las áreas rurales y dio origen a numerosas cooperativas diseminadas en los pueblos del interior del Chaco, en tanto, la explotación forestal seguía siendo importante, aunque ya se iniciaba la declinación en la producción del tanino. Luego de la crisis del cultivo textil se ingresó al “Ciclo de la Diversificación económica”, entre 1960 y 1985, con la introducción de otras especies tradicionalmente arraigadas en la región pampeana (girasol, sorgo, maíz y trigo) y, asimismo, se impulsó la actividad ganadera, con lo cual se inició un proceso de intensa emigración rural. Desde mediados de la década de 1980 hasta nuestros días, se han producido cambios significativos en los patrones de producción, con fuertes implicancias a nivel económico, demográfico y socioambiental. A este último período, se lo identifica como el “Ciclo Tecno-productivo”, caracterizado por la creciente tecnificación de la agricultura, de la ganadería y de la industria forestal, una gran expansión de la soja, al tiempo que las áreas rurales continúan perdiendo población.</p><p> </p>

Authors: Rai Chandra Kala , Poudel Nimesh 
Published: September 2019

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most common metabolic disorders to the current generation. It usually leads to multi-system­ic complications such as cardiovascular diseases, proteinuria, micro albumin­uria, retinopathy, hypertension, ischaemic changes and chronic kidney disease. These complications increase the morbidity and mortality of patients. The pro­longed hyperglycemia leads to vascular damage. It causes insufficient blood flow to the cardiac muscles which may cause myocardial or cardiac ischaemia. The aim of this study was to find out the prevalence of hypertension and isch­aemic ECG changes in T2DM patients attending Kathmandu Medical College.
Methods: Total 360 type 2 diabetic patients were included. Blood pressure was measured and electrocardiogram (ECG) was recorded by 12 leads ECG. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 16. p<0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.
Results: The mean age of the patients was 66.88 ± 1.52 years, age ranging from 40 – 95 years. In this study 168 patients (46.66%) had systolic hyperten­sion, 204 patients (56.67%) had diastolic hypertension and 126 (35%) had both systolic and diastolic hypertension. About 103 (28.61%) showed ECG changes in hypertensive patients. Only 4 (1.11%) non- hypertensive had ECG changes. This study showed statistically significant relation of hypertension and isch­aemic ECG changes in type 2 diabetes mellitus cases with p- value 0.03.
Conclusions: There is a high prevalence of hypertension among T2DM pa­tients. In these patients, there is a statistically significant association between hypertension and ischaemic ECG changes.
Prevalence of Coracoclavicular Joint in Patients Visiting Radio-Diagnosis Department at College of Medical Sciences, Chitwan
Authors: Pandit Ruku , Shrestha Sunara , Sharma Nitasha 
Published: September 2019

Introduction: Coracoclavicular joint (CCJ) is a true synovial joint between su­perior surface of coracoid process of scapula and conoid tubercle of clavicle. The radiological prevalence of CCJ in various population ranges 0.55% to 21%. The CCJ are mostly discovered incidentally and is rarely associated with any symptom. Sometimes it may present with shoulder pain, limitation of shoulder movement, upper limb paresthesia and osteoarthritis of itself or adjacent ac­romioclavicular joint. Hence, this study is aiming to determine the prevalence of anomalous CCJ in patient visiting department of Radio-diagnosis in College of Medical Sciences, Bharatpur, Chitwan, Nepal and to observe association of CCJ with laterality, sides and gender.
Methods: A total of 1936 digital chest x-rays films were observed for the pres­ence of CCJ, out of which 1097 images were of male and 839 of females. Age of study population ranged from 3 to 90 years. The data obtained were analyzed using Stastical Package for Social Science version (SPSS) 16.0. The prevalence of CCJ was calculated. The cases with CCJ were further analyzed to evaluate the association of CCJ with laterality, sidedness and gender using Chi-square for one-dimensional “goodness of fit” test. Chi-square of Independence was em­ployed to compare the various parameters (laterality and side) with genders.
Results: The prevalence of CCJ was 4.6%. CCJ was more frequently observed in male (67.42%) than female (32.57%). Unilateral occurrence of CCJ (55.06%) was slightly more than bilateral (44.94%). Gender difference was not signifi­cantly associated with laterality and sidedness of joint (p<0.05). The incidence of CCJ was more in second decade of life in both male and female.
Conclusion: CCJ is not rare, hence, knowledge of presence of CCJ as an etiol­ogy of shoulder pain is essential for rational therapy and will prevent misdiag­nosis.

Published: September 2019

Magnetic induction intensity and current are crucial factors to determine the effect of electromagnetic anti-fouling technology (EAFT). For getting the current value in the coil which was tightly wrapped around the PVC pipe, the inductance and equivalent resistance of the coil was measured by LCR meter, and the current in the circuit of the anti-fouling system was obtained by Ohm’s law. The magnetic induction intensity in the solenoid centre can be calculated by Faraday’s law. The purpose of the experiment was to find the optimal output parameters of EAFT and explored the anti-fouling effect. Therefore, we established an experimental platform to optimize the output parameters and explore the effect of different output frequency on solution conductivity and particle diameter. Through experiments, it’s found that current in the coil was reduced with increasing frequency, the number of turns and the diameter. As the frequency and diameter increase, the magnetic induction intensity reduced, and the turns basically no impact on the magnetic induction intensity. The hardness solution of 10 mol ⋅ m−3 (as CaCO3) is treated by four different frequencies electromagnetic field shows that the lower the frequency, the greater decrease in conductivity and the greater increase in particle size, that phenomenon verifying that the higher current and stronger magnetic field intensity has a better anti-fouling effect.

Published: September 2019

Background: Early 2014, Kaiser Permanente decided to adopt an innovative model for network-based allied healthcare for persons with Parkinson’s disease (PD), based on the principles of the Dutch ParkinsonNet. Objective: We present the interventions that were performed to implement this method at Kaiser Permanente and we show the first outcomes based on these interventions. Methods: In this study, 57 physical therapists, 18 speech therapists and 20 occupational therapists, as well as 13 medical centers across the state of California were included. Nine interventions were performed more or less simultaneously, including training and education of healthcare providers and patients, a train the trainer curriculum, organizing IT, streamlining referral processes and building networks. Results: At the start, less than 30% of the patients within the Southern California Region received specialized allied health treatment (consisting of, i.e., gait training, voice training or guidance in activities of daily life). After one year, almost 55% of patients received specialized allied health treatment. In the second year, this number increased to just under 67%, suggesting a sustained concentration of care (the second core component of networked care). This can be seen as a first indicator for successful implementation of the ParkinsonNet network at Kaiser Permanente. Conclusions: The importance of these findings lies in the fact that a healthcare innovation that proved effective in one country can be transferred successfully to another country and to another healthcare system.

INTRODUCTION: Biotinidase deficiency is an inherited disorder of biotin metabolism that is untreated may present within the first few month of life. OBJECTIVE: We report the exceptional observation of a biotinidase deficiency in Morocco. The rarity of this pathology, its age of onset, its mode of revelation and the lack of treatment in Morocco make the particularity of this observation. OBSERVATION: A newborn child born from a 24-year-old mother, followed by an estimated pregnancy of 37 weeks of amenorrhea according to the Farr score (morphological maturation score used for the dating of the pregnancy term). The infant presented at 7 days of life with a cutaneous-mucous eruption with icithiosic dry erythroderma of interest to the trunk, the face, the scalp associated with alopecia and depilation of the eyebrow. The biotinoidase deficiency was confirmed by its low serum concentration at 49 nka / l. The newborn died at 20 days of life before starting the specific treatment. CONCLUSION: Biotinidase deficiency is a rare condition requiring early screening and rapid management. The delay in diagnosis and the unavailability of treatment in Morocco can have fatal consequences.
Peran Nahdatul Ulama (Nu) dalam Pembangunan Hukum Islam di Indonesia
Authors: Nofialdi Nofialdi 
Published: September 2019

Dalam memberikan fatwa, sebagian ulama Indonesia telah membentuk organisasi dan tiap-tiap organisasi memiliki majlis atau lajnah yang bertugas merespon masalah-masalah yang berkembang di masyarakat. Di antara lembaga Ijtihad Ormas Islam di Indonesia adaiah: (1) Majlis Tarjih Muhammadiyah; (2) Bahsul Masa’il NU; (3) Majlis Fatwa Mathla’ul Anwar; (4) Dewan Hisbah Persis; dan (5) Komisi Fatwa MUl. Pola ijtihad yang dilakukan oleh NU adalah pola bermadzhab, baik bermadzhab secara qauli maupun manhaji. Akan tetapi sebenarnya, mayoritas ulama NU hanya memegang dan mempelajari manhaj imam Syafi’i. Hal ini terlihat dalam kepustakaan mereka dan kurikulum pesantren yang diasuhnya. Kitab-kitab seperti Waraqat, Hujjah al-Wushul, Lam'u al-Jawami’, al-Mushtasyfa, al-Asybah wan al-Nazha’ir dan lain-lain banyak dijumpai pada koleksi kepustakaan mereka dan dibaca (diajarkan) di beberapa pesantren. Perkembangan Hukum Islam di Indonesia tidak dapat dilepaskan dari kontribusi NU sebagai salah satu institusi/ Ormas Islam yang diakui dan diikuti pandangan hukumnya. Hal ini diperkuat sebuah lembaga yang dibentuk oleh NU yang bertugas khusus dalam pengkajian hukum Islam dan pemberi fatwa yaitu bahsul masa’il. Walaupun terdapat banyak perbedaan dalam masalah hukum dengan institusi lain seperti Muhammadiyah, NU sampai sekarang masih tetap bertahan (survive) berkontribusi dalam hukum Islam di Indonesia
Les résultats du Salon des Arts ménagers 1960
Authors: Bréas Jean 
Published: September 2019

Troisième enquête réalisée auprès des exposants du Salon des Arts Ménagers ; les précédentes avaient eu lieu en 1958 et 1959. Le Salon 1960 a été meilleur que celui de l'an dernier qui avait été, il est vrai, le plus mauvais de ces dernières années. Le nombre d'entrées au Salon a été cette année supérieur de 8,5 % à celui de 1959 et a même légèrement dépassé le nombre d'entrées de 1958.
En plus des questions habituelles, les exposants ont été interrogés cette année sur l'activité de leur entreprise en dehors du Salon ces derniers mois. II apparaît que la demande dans les branches industrielles considérées a été relativement satisfaisante, sans être très substantielle.
Les intentions d'achats des ménages d'après une enquête réalisée en février 1960
Authors: Coste Hubert 
Published: September 2019

Cette enquête est la quatrième d'une série d'enquêtes par sondage effectuées par l'I.N.S.E.E. dans le cadre de ses études de conjonctures. Elle a été effectuée fin février auprès d'un échantillon de 6.000 ménages représentatifs de la population française.
Les principaux résultats portent sur les achats récents et les intentions d'achats en automobiles, appareils électro- ménagers, vêtements et chaussures par les ménages, et sur quelques points d'ordre financier.
En ce qui concerne l'automobile, les livraisons (ou immatriculations) de voitures neuves sur le marché intérieur attendues entre mars et le début des grandes vacances 1960 seraient en forte hausse (de l'ordre de 25 %) sur celles annoncées l'an dernier pour la période correspondante de 1959.
Pour les appareils électro- ménagers, les achats du premier semestre 1960 devraient être en hausse sur ceux du premier semestre 1959, l'attitude des consommateurs étant, en effet, beaucoup plus favorable à l'achat que l'an dernier. On s'attend également à un résultat analogue, mais moins sensible, pour les achats de vêtements et chaussures.
D'autre part, d'après les questions financières, l'amélioration de la confiance dans les prix, qui s'était manifestée à travers les résultats de la précédente enquête est confirmée. Aussi, les ménages, dont la situation financière s'était dans l'ensemble récemment quelque peu dégradée, s'attendent-ils à une amélioration prochaine de ladite situation.
Les répercussions de la récession de 1958 sur les économies australienne et néo-zélandaise
Authors: Gayet Hélène 
Published: September 2019

La récession de 1958 a eu des conséquences déflationnistes dans l'immédiat seulement en Australie. En Nouvelle-Zélande, au contraire, la pression inflationniste, déjà latente en raison de la conjoncture interne, s'est accentuée avec la crise.
Dans l'ensemble, on peut considérer que ces pays ont été relativement peu affectés grâce à leur prospérité et au crédit dont ils jouissent à l'étranger. La dernière récession et la conjoncture actuelle font cependant ressortir le caractère « dépendant » de ces pays qui, à l'instar des pays insuffisamment développés, tirent leurs principales ressources de l'exportation de produits primaires agricoles.
Les investissements dans les entreprises industrielles privées. Réalisations en 1960 et prévisions pour 1961
Authors: Gervaiseau Pierre , Coste Hubert 
Published: September 2019

Cette enquête a été réalisée par correspondance en février-mars 1961 auprès de 2.000 chefs d'entreprises industrielles. Les investissements des secteurs couverts par l'enquête représentent plus des deux tiers du total des investissements de l'industrie publique et privée, et environ 25 % du total des investissements réalisés en France par l'ensemble des entreprises, des ménages et des administrations. Les principaux résultats concernent les investissements réalisés en 1960 et ceux prévus pour 1961. Des indications sont également fournies sur la nature, le mode de financement et les buts de ces investissements.
A partir des déclarations des chefs d'entreprises, les résultats une fois « redressés » (c'est-à-dire convenablement « pondérés ») peuvent se résumer de la façon suivante :
Les investissements des entreprises privées (secteur pétrole exclu) qui en volume avait baissé de 5 % en 1959 par rapport à 1958, ont augmenté de 11 % en 1960 par rapport à 1959. L'accrois- sèment des investissements a été en 1960 plus important pour les grosses entreprises que pour les petites. Les investissements en volume des différents secteurs ont d'autant plus augmenté en 1960 qu'ils avaient davantage baissé en 1959 et réciproquement. Toutefois, ce phénomène de compensation ne s'est pas produit dans la métallurgie, le verre et la chimie, le volume des investissements de ces secteurs n'ayant pas cessé de progresser entre 1958 et 1960. Au total, l'accroissement des capacités de production de l'industrie privée au cours de l'année 1960 a été de l'ordre de 10 %.
Les investissements prévus (secteur pétrole exclu) pour 1961 [seraient en volume en hausse de 12 % environ sur ceux de 1960. Cette hausse serait, comme en 1960, plus forte pour les grosses entreprises que pour les petites, et se produirait surtout dans les industries de la métallurgie, du verre, de la chimie, ainsi que dans le papier-carton. Un peu plus des deux tiers de ces investissements s'effectueraient sous forme d'acquisitions de matériel et d'outillage. Le financement serait assuré pour 70 % par des ressources propres à l'entreprise (autofinancement), le reste étant principalement financé par du crédit bancaire. L'étude met enfin en lumière la diversité des résultats obtenus suivant la taille de l'entreprise, le secteur d'activité, et également suivant que les investissements prévus présentent un caractère certain ou conditionnel.
