Teacher’s burnout syndrome: the phenomenology of the process
Authors: Bulatevych Nataliya 
Published: February 2018

Abstract

Introduction. The article is devoted to the phenomenology of burnout symptoms among teachers and determining their individual characteristics.

Aim. The aim was to study the phenomenology of the burnout process among teachers and to define its individual determinants.

Material and methods. The theoretical basis for the study was a burnout model described by V.V. Boyko considering the burnout as a mechanism of psychological protection of personality in response to the traumatic circumstances of the environment. The following diagnostic tools were used: the Boyko’s Emotional Burnout Inventory, the Inventory on behavior and experience in the working environment by W. Schaarschmidt and A. Fischer and the individual-typological questionnaire by L.Sobchik. In order to calculate and evaluate the results, methods of mathematical statistics were applied.

Results. The results of polling 132 teachers show that more than one third of working teachers show prominent features of high level burnout. This is combined with a number of personality traits and features of behavior, and with an emotional response of the teacher to the circumstances of the working environment, what suggests the need for the development and systematic implementation of prevention programs and correction of burnout among working teachers.

Conclusions. A significant part of the surveyed teachers show signs of burnout expressed at a significant level. Thus, the problem of psychological assistance and psychological support for working teachers remains relevant and requires the search for effective technologies and techniques for providing psychological assistance.
Features of music perception by persons with addictive behaviour
Authors: Maksymov Mykola 
Published: February 2018

AbstractIntroduction.Early detection of the person’s mental dependence on psychotropic substances enables timely correction of deviations in his/her behavior. Given the symptom of the anosognosy, the search for projective methods for determining the presence of mental dependence is required. Certain personality features that determine dependence can be reflected in the perception of music.Aim.The goal of the research was to determine the connecting features of the perception of music with the presence of the person’s mental dependence on psychotropic substances.Material and methods.The study involved students aged 18-19. There were 50 students in the standard group. The experimental group consisted of another 50 students with addictive behavior. They were of the same age and were patients in the centers of medical and social rehabilitation. For the study of personal qualities, the following methods were applied: the method of determining the level of subjective control by J. Rotter, the method of narrative by N. Chepeleva, the frustration test by Rosenzweig and six specially created musical fragments which represented a certain musical discourse.Results.An analysis of the selection of the musical fragments by students and individuals with addictive behavior has shown that there are statistically significant differences. Students, in comparison with those with addictive behavior, have mature social concept of “I-concept”, and this fact underlies the fact that they give the highest ratings to classical music. An empirical study has shown the connection between the the first stage selection of musical fragments that have certain psychological content and the presence of dependence on psychotropic substances.Conclusions.Musical discourse, due to the specific influence on the emotional sphere of a person, causes a certain response, relevant to its personality properties. The connection of psychological peculiarities of persons with addictive behavior and their perception of music is established: their emotional mood corresponds to music of a destructive character, which symbolizes aggression and has a dangerous influence on the mental state of a person. We defined musical discourses, the content of which can serve as stimulating material for determining certain personal characteristics that indicate the dependence on psychotropic substances.

Abstract

Introduction. The state of human health largely depends on environmental factors. Nutrition as one of them is important in the earliest stages of child development. By following the principles of rational nutrition, we provide the child the necessary components that determine its growth and development. By analyzing the relationship between nutrition and health three elements should be taken into account: selection of food, compliance with dietary guidelines and an assessment of the effects of nutrition.

Aim. The research aimed at the assessment of nutritional status and dietary habits of children attending the nursery.

Material and methods. The study was conducted among 92 healthy children aged 10-55 months attending two nurseries in the town of Sanok. In all the children, body mass and height were measured and the values obtained were related to the percentile charts. There was also an original questionnaire survey performed addressed to mothers of the children. It provided information on the diets of infants and introducing new complementary products to the diet of children in the first year of life. The results were compared with the nutritional standards for children fed both naturally and artificially.

Results and conclusions. While assessing the nutritional status of children, it was found that incorrect body mass concerned often overweight and obesity. Mothers too early stopped breast-feeding and introduced formulas to the diet of children. The main food product that caused allergic symptoms of children was cow’s milk and its products. Most mothers preparing meals for the children used the prepared food products for infants. On the basis of the obtained results it can be concluded that the introduction of complementary food into the diet of infants in the majority did not meet current dietary recommendations in 2007. There is a need to take preventive measures carried out by medical personnel addressed to parents/carers on the proper nutrition of their children in the first years of life.
Exploring the Photovoltaic Properties of Metal Bipyridine Complexes (Metal = Fe, Zn, Cr, and Ru) by Density Functional Theory
Authors: Irfan Ahmad , Abbas Ghulam 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
The synthesis and characterisation of mononuclear Fe complexes were carried out by using bipyridine (Compound 1) at ambient conditions. Additionally, three more derivatives were designed by substituting the central Fe metal with Zn, Cr, and Ru (Compound 2, Compound 3, and Compound 4), respectively. The ground state geometry calculations were carried out by using density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP/6-31G** (LANL2DZ) level of theory. We shed light on the frontier molecular orbitals, electronic properties, photovoltaic parameters, and structure–property relationship. The open-circuit voltage is a promising parameter that considerably affects the photovoltaic performance; thus, we have estimated its value by considering the complexes as donors whereas TiO2 and/or Si were used as acceptors. The solar cell performance behaviour was also studied by shedding light on the band alignment and energy level offset.

Abstract
de Souza, RF, de Matos, DG, Ferreira, ARP, Chilibeck, P, Barros, NdA, de Oliveira, AS, Cercato, LM, da Silva, DS, and Aidar, FJ. Effect of ibuprofen on muscle, hematological and renal function, hydric balance, pain, and performance during intense long-distance running. J Strength Cond Res 34(7): 2076–2083, 2020—The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of prophylactic use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (i.e., ibuprofen) on physical performance, vertical jump, muscle biomarkers, liver, kidney, acute pain, and hydration status of participants in the 42-km Trail Running Challenge, a long-distance race integrated over mountain routes. The sample consisted of 20 men randomly divided into 2 groups: a control group (CG) and an experimental group (EG), with 12 completing the race (41.1 ± 8.8 years; 75.7 ± 12.1 kg) and included in the final analysis. The EG were administered an ibuprofen capsule (400 mg) 15 minutes before the beginning of the race and again after 5 hours of racing if the route was not yet completed. There were significant time main effects for creatine kinase (p = 0.001; f
2 Cohen = 0.25), lactate dehydrogenase (p < 0.001; f
2 Cohen = 2.05), aspartate aminotransferase (p = 0.002; f
2 Cohen = 1.53), creatinine (p = 0.002; f
2 Cohen = 2.24), urea (p = 0.001; f
2 Cohen = 2.25), heart rate (p < 0.001; f
2 Cohen = 4.88), and pain scores (p < 0.001; f
2 Cohen = 1.93) all of which increased during the race. There was a group × time interaction for squat jump, which significantly decreased only in the CG (p = 0.045; f
2 Cohen = 2.17). This may have been related to increased frequency of pain reported after the race in the gastrocnemius of the CG compared with the EG (p ≤ 0.05). It was concluded that ibuprofen intake did not reduce muscle damage during the competition but maintained leg muscular power performance (i.e., vertical jump), possibly by reducing gastrocnemius muscle pain.

Abstract
Buzza, G, Lovell, GP, Askew, CD, and Solomon, C. The effect of short- and long-term aerobic training years on systemic O2 utilization, and muscle and prefrontal cortex tissue oxygen extraction in young women. J Strength Cond Res 33(8): 2128–2137, 2019—This study aimed to determine if systemic O2 utilization (Vo
2) and tissue oxygen extraction (deoxyhemoglobin [HHb]) in the vastus lateralis (VL), gastrocnemius (GAST), and prefrontal cortex were different during exercise between short-term trained (STT, 6–24 months) and long-term trained (LTT, >5 years) young women while controlling for current training load. Thirteen STT and 13 LTT participants completed ramp incremental (RI) and square-wave constant load (SWCL) tests on a cycle ergometer. In LTT compared with STT: (a) Vo
2 was higher during the RI (p = 0.024) and SWCL (p = 0.001) tests; (b) HHb in the VL (p = 0.044) and GAST (p = 0.027) was higher in the RI test; and (c) there were significant group × intensity interactions for Vo
2 in the SWCL test. The additional years of aerobic training in LTT compared with STT (LTT 7.1 ± 1.9 vs. STT 1.5 ± 0.4 years) resulted in higher Vo
2 and HHb in the VL and GAST. These results indicate that in young women, independent of current training load, systemic Vo
2 and peripheral muscle O2 extraction during exercise continues to increase beyond 24 months of aerobic training.
A Critical Role for the Nucleus Reuniens in Long-Term, But Not Short-Term Associative Recognition Memory Formation
Authors: Barker Gareth R.I. , Warburton Elizabeth Clea 
Published: February 2018

Recognition memory for single items requires the perirhinal cortex (PRH), whereas recognition of an item and its associated location requires a functional interaction among the PRH, hippocampus (HPC), and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). Although the precise mechanisms through which these interactions are effected are unknown, the nucleus reuniens (NRe) has bidirectional connections with each regions and thus may play a role in recognition memory. Here we investigated, in male rats, whether specific manipulations of NRe function affected performance of recognition memory for single items, object location, or object-in-place associations. Permanent lesions in the NRe significantly impaired long-term, but not short-term, object-in-place associative recognition memory, whereas single item recognition memory and object location memory were unaffected. Temporary inactivation of the NRe during distinct phases of the object-in-place task revealed its importance in both the encoding and retrieval stages of long-term associative recognition memory. Infusions of specific receptor antagonists showed that encoding was dependent on muscarinic and nicotinic cholinergic neurotransmission, whereas NMDA receptor neurotransmission was not required. Finally, we found that long-term object-in-place memory required protein synthesis within the NRe. These data reveal a specific role for the NRe in long-term associative recognition memory through its interactions with the HPC and mPFC, but not the PRH. The delay-dependent involvement of the NRe suggests that it is not a simple relay station between brain regions, but, rather, during high mnemonic demand, facilitates interactions between the mPFC and HPC, a process that requires both cholinergic neurotransmission and protein synthesis.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTRecognizing an object and its associated location, which is fundamental to our everyday memory, requires specific hippocampal–cortical interactions, potentially facilitated by the nucleus reuniens (NRe) of the thalamus. However, the role of the NRe itself in associative recognition memory is unknown. Here, we reveal the crucial role of the NRe in encoding and retrieval of long-term object-in-place memory, but not for remembrance of an individual object or individual location and such involvement is cholinergic receptor and protein synthesis dependent. This is the first demonstration that the NRe is a key node within an associative recognition memory network and is not just a simple relay for information within the network. Rather, we argue, the NRe actively modulates information processing during long-term associative memory formation.

Published: February 2018

Aims
The cumulative effect of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) on postpartum cardio-metabolic diseases is equivocal. We aimed to assess the associations of GDM and HDP’s individual and synergic contribution to risks of postpartum cardio-metabolic diseases (metabolic syndrome (MetS), abnormal glucose metabolism and hypertension (HTN)).

Methods
Of participants from a Singapore birth cohort, 276 mothers attending the 5-year postpartum visit were included in this study. During this visit, we collected mothers’ history of GDM and HDP in all live births in a chronicle sequence and assessed the cardio-metabolic risks based on blood pressure, anthropometry and a panel of serum biomarkers. We diagnosed MetS, abnormal glucose metabolism and HTN according to Adult Treatment Panel III 2000 and World Health Organization guidelines.

Results
Of 276 mothers, 157 (56.9%) had histories of GDM while 23 (8.3%) had histories of HDP. After full adjustment, we found associations of GDM episodes with postpartum abnormal glucose metabolism (single episode: relative risk (RR) 2.9 (95% CI: 1.7, 4.8); recurrent episodes (≥2): RR = 3.8 (2.1–6.8)). Also, we found association between histories of HDP and HTN (RR = 3.6 (1.5, 8.6)). Having either (RR 2.6 (1.7–3.9)) or both gestational complications (RR 2.7 (1.6–4.9)) was associated with similar risk of postpartum cardio-metabolic disease.

Conclusions
Mothers with GDM or HDP had a threefold increased risk of postpartum abnormal glucose metabolism or HTN, respectively. Having both GDM and HDP during past pregnancies was not associated with additional risk of postpartum cardio-metabolic diseases beyond that associated with either complication alone.

Published: February 2018

Background
Addicted Internet users present with higher rates of comorbidities, e.g., attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depressive, and anxiety disorders. In addition, deficits in self-concept-related characteristics were found in addicted Internet gamers and social network users. The aim of this study was to examine the links between healthy, problematic, and addicted Internet use regarding comorbidities and self-concept-related characteristics. The association between recently developed ADHD-like symptoms without an underlying diagnosis and addictive Internet use was also examined.

Methods

n = 79 healthy controls, n = 35 problematic, and n = 93 addicted Internet users were assessed for comorbidities, social and emotional competencies, body image, self-esteem, and perceived stress. Apart from an ADHD-diagnosis, recently developed ADHD-like symptoms were also assessed.

Results
Addicted users showed more self-concept-related deficits and higher rates of comorbidities with ADHD, depressive, and anxiety disorders. Addicted and problematic users showed similarities in the prevalence of cluster B personality disorders and decreased levels of characteristics related to emotional intelligence. Participants with recently developed ADHD-like symptoms scored higher in lifetime and current severity of Internet use compared with those without ADHD symptoms. Addicted participants with recently developed ADHD symptoms showed higher lifetime Internet use severity compared with those without any symptoms.

Conclusions
Our findings indicate that cluster B personality disorders and premorbid problems in emotional intelligence might present a link between problematic and addictive Internet use. Furthermore, the findings provide a first indication that addictive Internet use is related to ADHD-like symptoms. Symptoms of ADHD should therefore be assessed against the background of possible addicted Internet use.

Цель. Оценить реакции системы гемостаза у крыс при различной продолжительности приёма концентрата, содержащего кровь и гистолизат из репродуктивных органов марала, а также исключить возможное адаптивное действие на систему гемостаза добавок (глюкозы, аскорбиновой кислоты, фруктовой эссенции), входящих в состав используемого концентрата.
Методы. В работе использованы 50 половозрелых крыс-самцов линии Wistar. Три группы экспериментальных животных по 10 крыс принимали концентрат, содержащий кровь и гистолизат из репродуктивных органов марала, по 4,5 мл в сутки в течение 7, 14 и 30 дней. Показатели, полученные у экспериментальных животных, сравнивали с показателями интактных крыс и контрольной группы, принимавшей только добавки, входящие в состав используемого концентрата.
Результаты. На 7-й день приёма концентрата показатели системы гемостаза не отличались от показателей интактных крыс. По истечении 14 дней приёма концентрата отмечены снижение содержания фибриногена в крови и повышение антикоагулянтной активности плазмы крови. На 30-й день приёма концентрата, помимо ранее выявленных изменений в системе гемостаза, была установлена гипокоагуляция по внутреннему пути активации плазменного гемостаза, а также повышение фибринолитической активности плазмы крови. По завершении 30-дневного приёма добавок, входящих в состав исследуемого препарата, у контрольной группы животных показатели системы гемостаза не отличались от показателей интактных крыс.
Вывод. Повышение адаптированности системы гемостаза при приёме исследуемого концентрата заключается, вероятно, в повышении антикоагулянтной и фибринолитической активности плазмы крови у крыс, а также в снижении содержания фибриногена в крови; действующим компонентом, обеспечивающим адаптивные изменения в системе гемостаза, служит комплекс биологически активных веществ, содержащихся в крови и гистолизате из репродуктивных органов марала.

Цель. Создание и внедрение новых организационно-управленческих технологий оказания медицинской помощи, направленных на формирование приверженности к лекарственной терапии у пациентов из сельской местности, и расчёт медико-экономической эффективности внедрения данного проекта.
Методы. Объектом исследования было население Рыбно-Слободского района Республики Татарстан. Набор пациентов в группы проводили на базе поликлиники Рыбно-Слободской центральной районной больницы. Продолжительность исследования составляла 6 мес для каждой из двух групп с последующим наблюдением и оценкой приверженности к терапии в течение 2 мес.
Результаты. Ежегодно во всём мире мозговой инсульт поражает от 5,6 до 6,6 млн человек, из которых 35% умирают в остром периоде. В последнее время происходит серьёзное «омоложение» проявлений заболеваний сердечно-сосудистого характера. Главная причина таких показателей - низкая приверженность пациентов к лекарственной терапии. И непосредственно приверженность пациентов позволяет значительно снизить риск развития сердечно-сосудистых осложнений. В статье подняты вопросы низкой приверженности к лекарственной терапии, изложены методы её формирования у пациентов из сельской местности. Описаны примеры зарубежного и российского опыта повышения приверженности пациентов к лекарственной терапии, определены основные точки воздействия на пациентов. На основании проведённого анализа разработано и предложено внедрение пациентоориентированной программы, направленной на формирование приверженности к лекарственной терапии сельского населения. Также авторами проведена оценка медико-экономической эффективности внедрения пациентоориентированной программы, направленной на формирование приверженности к лекарственной терапии сельского населения (оценка затрат на лекарственные средства, госпитализацию, нетрудоспособность, связанные с основным заболеванием; оценка затрат на предупреждение развития осложнений и инвалидности).
Вывод. Эффективная организация профилактической работы имеет исключительное значение для предотвращения осложнений сердечно-сосудистых заболеваний и оказывает непосредственное влияние на экономическое благополучие населения.
