Symbolism and Operas by Ukrainian Composers
Authors: Oganezova-Grygorenko Olga , Androsova Daria 
Published: September 2024

The purpose of the research is to identify symbolist stylistic features in operas by Ukrainian composers as an embodiment of the national characteristic feature of thinking in the art of the twentieth century and in opera in particular. The methodological basis is the intonation approach as an awareness of the genetic commonality of musical thinking and speech in the traditions of B. Asafiev and B. Yavorskyi's concepts in Ukraine, as presented in the works of the authors of this article, as well as in the works of O. Kozarenko, O. Markova, O. Roshchenko, O. Solomonova, V. Shulhina, among other scholars. The scientific novelty is determined by the historical need to understand the significance of the contribution of symbolism to the creative palette of Ukrainian authors, since the ideological in our country and aesthetic in the West rejection of the principles of symbolist thinking as connected with the religious foundations of the worldview has led to the silence of the realities of creative stimuli in art historical research. The latter is especially true of the modern avant-garde in Ukraine, which, represented by M. Boichuk, M. Roslavets and other famous artists today, have "dropped out" of the reviews of Ukrainian art of the twentieth century. Conclusions. The generalisation of the developments of recent decades, which are related to the awareness of symbolist tendencies in the foundations of the work of such masters as V. Barvinskyi, V. Kosenko, M. Leontovych, B. Liatoshynskyi, V. Rebikov, V. Silvestrov, K. Shymanovskyi, and other authors, allows us to assert that in the musical sphere, in opera, the symbolist worldview specifically occupies a prominent place. This is especially true of the trends in the early 1900s of M. Lysenko's work ("Taras Bulba", "Nocturne"), as well as the full implementation of the symbolist principles of expressiveness in M. Leontovych's opera "On the Mermaid's Easter", marked by "Debussyisms" and "Wagnerisms" in the themes and images and the general compositional solution of the one-act "opera-minute". In parallel to these discoveries, there are V. Rebikov's "psychodramas", of which the famous "Yalynka" from the beginning of the twentieth century is awarded the "palm" in the presentation of Debussyism-Scriabinism in the presentation of images-themes. This modernist trend also encompasses the expressiveness of B. Liatoshynskyi's operas, marked by the essence of symbolist-ambivalent manifestation of characters-symbols, characters-archetypes of the compositions of the named master and his many followers.
Male Singing as an Acquisition of Religious-Ritual and Theatrical-Opera Activities
Authors: Gao Tian Fan 
Published: September 2024

The purpose of the research is to substantiate the specificity of male singing skills as the first and leading in the history of musical and cultural events and to formulate the fundamental methodological and singing differences in religious-ritual and theatrical-opera detections. The methodological basis is the intonation approach as an idea of the genetic commonality of musical thinking and speech in the traditions of the concepts of B. Asafiev and B. Yavorskyi in Ukraine, which is presented in the works of D. Androsova, O. Kozarenko, O. Markova, O. Ohanezova, O. Roshchenko, O. Sokolova, V. Shulhina. Scientific novelty is manifested in the independence of classification developments regarding the characteristics of male singers in the ritual-religious and theatre-opera spheres, for the first time in the musicology of Ukraine and China, it is pointed out the fundamental difference between the religious and ritual detection of singing, mostly male, in register-interval indicators, which are incompatible with speech detections as signs of materially-real sound experience. Conclusions. From the ritual-religious primacy comes the practice of focusing on the voice detection within the framework of ritual-religious actions of sounds associated with supernatural abilities of contact with the extra-human world, the basis of which is the male voice, able to master the registers accessible to women's vocal expression, which is later fixed in the falsetto singing of men, although the distinctive side of sacredness both in the West and in the East is the skill of male fables. The transcendental meaning of such ritual sound expression is reinforced by interval-register measures, among which either "drumming" on one or two sounds or interval-register "jumps" that remove the respiratory-speech "wave" line of pitch sequences prevail. Theatrically, the operatic approach, relying on the artificiality of vocals (as a legacy of European church practice) or its analogies in the Chinese singing tradition, metaphorically and consistently combines that singing artificiality with speech-pathetic inflections, i.e. compensatingly combining the experience of addressing the superphysical world with speech-physical sound signs.
Karol Shymanovsky's Songs for High Voices in Imitation and Against the Vocal Heritage of F. Chopin
Authors: Ying Qingqing 
Published: September 2024

The purpose of the study is to trace Biedermeier's traces in the expressiveness of K. Shymanovskyi's Songs in their borderline to Chopin's heritage and in delving into the artificial pro-church declamation of symbolist vocalism – using the example of Songs for a high voice op. 2-54, which in terms of timbre-register corresponds to the lyric soprano of the author of this essay. The methodological basis is the intonation approach of the school of B. Asafiev in Ukraine, represented, among other things, by the works of O. Markova, O. Muravska, L. Horelyk, and other authors, in which the basic method of analysis is stylistic comparative, musicological holistic analysis with hermeneutic approaches, as well as the historical-biographical method from the perspective of "intellectual biography" (in the concept of V. Shulhina and O. Yakovlev, the subject of the study. The scientific novelty of the work is determined by the author's primacy of the development of the specified stylistic vision of K. Shymanovskyi's Songs according to its Biedermeier origin and involving the method of Symbolist vocals with its pro-church declamation and Eastern liturgical singing. And also innovative is the analysis of the named Songs from the perspective of the stated stylistic interpretations of the expressiveness of the works of the great Polish and Ukrainian composer of the 20th century. Conclusions. 16 analysed Songs by K. Shymanovskyi of different years of creation demonstrate Biedermeier's attribution in op. 2, 20, which varies from op. 24 on a certain borderline of psalmody and dance-genre elements (especially op. 31 "Dance"), forming the apogee of the artist's symbolic choices, indicative of the Ukrainian cultural environment of the 1910s. Songs op. 54 combine signs of symbolic psalmody and dance-genre "hints", a clear passing of the relevance to folklorism of the large-scale works of the final years of the composer's life and work in Poland. Selections of works "for a high voice" highlight these expressive indicators that "depersonalise" verbal expressions in favour of the philosophical and religious abstraction of presenting plot-event fillings of a verbal series of vocal miniatures.
Role-character and role-hero as components of the actor’s skill when working on a student performance
Authors: Konyk Dmytro 
Published: September 2024

The purpose of the article is to examine the difference between the professional concepts of “role-character” and “role-hero” and to apply two corresponding models of role work in the production of a student play with actors who are students of higher specialised education. The research methodology is based on the use of general theoretical and special approaches and scientific methods; a systematic approach to focus on a holistic vision of the components of acting skills when working on a play; comparative analysis to compare the concepts of “role-character” and “role-hero”. The methods of analysis, synthesis and abstraction were used to identify the similarities and differences between the concepts of “role-character” and “role-hero” and their features. The method of theoretical generalisation was used to summarise the results of the study. The scientific novelty lies in the comparison of the professional concepts of “role-character” and “role-hero”, which is used for the first time in the study of the problems of creating a stage image, and their author’s definitions are given. This study is used to build a methodology for the educational process during the creation of a student performance. In the context of the study of professional concepts, the article analyses the creative and theoretical achievements of domestic and foreign directors and acting teachers. Conclusions. The author examines the keys to and obstacles to skilful acting by student actors related to the problems of working on a role on the example of a student theatre production based on V. Nestayko’s novel “Toreadors from Vasiukivka”. The author’s models of decisions on creative, practical and theoretical issues in the process of educating future stage artists in higher theatre institutions are proposed. The author’s definitions of the concepts of “role-character” and “role-hero” are proposed. Suggestions for teaching and directing work with student actors when working on a performance in an educational theatre are formulated. The study revealed the superiority of the method of working on the role as a “role-hero”, and therefore, this method was the basis for the theatrical production of the student play.
Duality as a root of loneliness in the genre of mono-opera on the example of “The human voice” by F. Poulenc
Authors: Trushevska Anhelina 
Published: September 2024

The purpose of the article is to consider the nature of loneliness and selfhood in the context of the philosophies of dualism and absolutism, to compare the classical conflict theatre and the spiritual theatre of integrity; to reveal the psychological reasons for the self-destructive behaviour of the female character of F. Poulenc's "The Human Voice". The research methodology is a combination of different approaches, such as: interdisciplinary – for the purpose of a broader vision of the problem in the context of the research topic, analytical – for the purpose of qualitative comparison of the obtained data on concepts, as well as observation – for the purpose of identifying the causes of the problem. Scientific novelty. In the article the psychological reasons for the self-destructive behaviour of the female character of F. Poulenc's mono-opera "The Human Voice" are revealed for the first time, the nature of the loneliness and selfhood in the context of the philosophies of dualism and absolutism is considered. Conclusions. In the article the reasons for the self-destructive behaviour of the character of the Woman in the mono-opera "The Human Voice" were revealed. Having considered the phenomenon of self-destruction as one of the drives in the theory of dualism and its manifestations in the socio-cultural circle, we came to the conclusion that loneliness leads to separation, selfhood – to absolutism and integrity. Comparing the classical theatre of conflict and the spiritual theatre of integrity, concluded that conflict in the theatre narrows the perception of the audience, promoting duality in their worldview. While the spiritual theatre of integrity has a healing function, harmonising all the internal processes of the viewer through the actor.
Cerebral oxygenation in preterm infants at high altitude: a prospective pilot cohort study
Authors: Enright Leah T. , Gross Jessica M. , Novak Dawn , Maxwell Jessie R. 
Published: September 2024

Abstract

Introduction:
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive technique for measuring regional oxygen saturation. Because preterm infants are susceptible to brain injury secondary to immaturity of the central nervous system (CNS) and cerebral vasculature, there has been significant interest in using cerebral NIRS monitoring to predict and/or decrease the risk of brain injury.

Methods:
Preterm infants born at &lt;32 weeks’ gestational age at high altitude were monitored with cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) throughout the first 96 postnatal hours. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rcSO2) and cerebral fractional tissue oxygen extraction (cFOTE) were measured. Additionally, we evaluated for possible correlations between cerebral oxygenation and fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) received.

Results:
20 infants were studied, with a mean birth weight of 1124 grams and gestational age of 28 5/7 weeks. Median rcSO2 was 73.5% on day of birth, 75.0% at 24-48hrs of age, and 73.0% at 48-72hrs and 72-96hrs of age. Median cFTOE was 23.8% on day of birth, 18.8% at 24-48hrs of age, 21.5% at 48-72hrs of age, and 23.6% at 72-96hrs of age. These patterns of rcSO2 and cFTOE and the median values for rcSO2 are consistent with those obtained in the largest sample of preterm infants reported to date at sea level. FiO2 correlated positively with cerebral oxygen saturation (r = 0.23, p &lt; 0.001 for rcSO2) and inversely with cerebral oxygen extraction (r =−0.25, p &lt; 0.001 for cFTOE).

Conclusion:
Cerebral oxygenation at high altitude appears to be similar to that at low altitude in preterm infants in the first 4 postnatal days. Cerebral oxygenation appears to be influenced by FiO2 received.
Data-driven education improves patient blood management: A pilot study
Authors: Connor Joseph P. , Al-Niaimi Ahmed , Barroilhet Lisa 
Published: September 2024

Abstract

Introduction:
We sought to increase the use of a restrictive transfusion protocol through clinician education and a standard approach to Patient Blood Management (PBM) in our gynecologic oncology service. Optimal PBM requires the consistent application of evidence-based, restrictive transfusion guidelines, however the use of restrictive transfusion is understudied in surgical oncology populations. We hypothesized that provider specific education that includes data derived from their own clinical practice would result in improved compliance current evidence-based transfusion guidelines.

Methods:
We created an educational activity that described evidence-based restrictive transfusion guidelines followed by data showing providers their own clinical transfusion practice where compliance with restrictive guidelines was poor. After the education, a plan to improve compliance was developed and put into place. Comparison of transfusion practices and complication/morbidity rates before and after the education was performed.

Results:
During the 18 months post-education the number of RBC units transfused decreased from 316 152, a 57% reduction and monthly transfusion events were reduced by 42% from 12 to 7 per month. The percent of transfusions with a pretransfusion hemoglobin less than 7 g/dL increased from 40% to 56%. The percent of transfusions with a hemoglobin less than 8 g/dL increased to 90%. Finally, the use of single unit transfusions increased from 49 to 85%, a major contributor to the reduction in units transfused.

Conclusion:
We created a service-specific educational intervention that improved compliance with evidence-based restrictive transfusion practice. This intervention improved provider compliance with lower transfusion thresholds and increased the use of single-unit transfusions.
A novel simulation model for teaching the removal of an embedded corneal foreign body: A pilot study
Authors: Fink Brian N. , Rega Paul 
Published: September 2024

Abstract

Introduction:
It is estimated that of the 3.9 million annual emergency department visits in the United States are for ocular trauma, with a fair proportion related to the extraction of an embedded corneal foreign body. The procedure is considered well within the scope of emergency medicine specialists. Emergency medicine texts describe the procedure in varying degrees of detail and technique. However, much of the training is still relegated to the now archaic concept of “see one – do one – teach one.” Essentially, it is taught, if at all, on the job and not in school. A review of the relevant literature has uncovered several attempts at developing simulation models to enhance educational efforts. However, the models are costly, difficult to reproduce, and not sufficiently realistic. This impedes the abilities of students to combine their clinical knowledge with clinical skill practice. Students at our university do not receive hands-on training with the use of a slit lamp. Therefore, they need classroom-based opportunities to practice a procedure they may need to do in the real world.

Methods:
We developed a new simulation model that utilizes inexpensive, easy-to-acquire items that can facilitate and augment the educational process of teaching the removal of an embedded corneal foreign body, using a hard-boiled egg as the eye. Ten second-year medical students were taught how to use the slit lamp and then performed corneal foreign body removal with our novel method and then through the previously published Newport Eye Model method. Afterwards, they completed a brief survey of both techniques, their realism, and effectiveness.

Results:
Upon completion of this education and training, 100% of the learners favored the experimental model over the previously published Newport Eye Model to teach corneal foreign body removal during simulation education.

Conclusion:
It is proposed that this simulation model, another extension into the growing field of simulation medicine, will not only broaden the psychomotor skills of emergency medicine specialists for ophthalmologic emergencies, but it will also enhance patient safety. This training is inexpensive, expeditious, and easily reproducible and should be tested among more students and faculty to gauge their responses. Medical faculty, especially primary care physicians, should be educated with regards to using a slit lamp and simulation education.
