Authors: Халина Н.В. , Крохина А.В. 
Published: June 2023

В качестве метода формирования узбекистанского PR-дискурса рассматривается формальный и концептуальный блендинг, позволяющий задействовать ментальное пространство русского языка в качестве трансферной зоны для интеграции с эталонными американским и британским профессиональными PR-дискурсами. Анализ материалов позволяет сделать вывод о том, что базовым элементом в формировании узбекистанского профессионального PR-дискурса становится профессиональный лексикон (терминология).
The article examines the role of the Russian language as a language for special purposes with the involvement of data on the formation of the Uzbek professional PR discourse in the mid-20s of the new millennium. As a method of forming the Uzbek PR discourse, a formal and conceptual blend is considered, which allows using the mental space of the Russian language as a transfer zone for integration with the reference American and British professional PR discourses. The analysis of the materials allows us to conclude that the basic element in the formation of the Uzbek professional PR discourse is the professional lexicon (terminology).

The specifics of the training and academic adaptation of foreign pre-masters at the pre-university stage
Authors: Харламова Н.В. , Ионкина Е.С. 
Published: June 2023

В статье исследуется процесс подготовки иностранных предмагистрантов на этапе довузовского обучения в российском вузе. Обозначаются академические трудности, связанные с недостаточной языковой подготовкой по специальности, с коммуникативным барьером при решении языковых задач, в том числе с отсутствием способности вступать в научную коммуникацию и др. Выявленные трудности показывают, что необходимо сотрудничать напрямую с кафедрами, работающими по магистерским программам; нужно определить для каждого предмагистранта стратегии обучения в соответствии с требованиями вуза и индивидуальными языковыми и профессиональными потребностями. Данный подход к обучению предмагистрантов на довузовском этапе позволит органично ввести молодого ученого в образовательную среду вуза.
The paper examines the process of preparing foreign undergraduates at the stage of pre-university education at a Russian university. The academic difficulties associated with insufficient language training in the specialty, with a communication barrier in solving language problems, including the lack of the ability to engage in scientific communication, etc. are indicated. The identified difficulties lead to an understanding of the need to cooperate directly with departments working on master's programs; determination of a learning strategy for each pre-master student in accordance with the requirements of the university and individual language and professional needs. This approach to teaching pre-graduate students at the pre-university stage will allow a young scientist to organically enter the educational environment of the university.
Problems of designing fire protection systems for subways

Published: June 2023

В статье рассмотрены проблемы проектирования систем обеспечения противопожарной защиты метрополитенов. Отмечено, что вопросам обеспечения пожарной безопасности на объектах метрополитенов уделяется особое внимание со стороны как контрольно-надзорных органов, так и специалистов, участвующих в разработке нормативных документов. При недостаточном уровне защиты от пожара нахождение в метрополитене чрезвычайно опасно, поскольку существует удаленность от поверхности и возможность быстрого задымления, что может привести к массовой гибели людей и значительным социально-экономическим последствиям. Предложены пути решения проблем, связанных с обеспечением пожарной безопасности метрополитенов.
The article deals with the problematic issues of designing systems for ensuring fire protection of subways. To date, there is no precise definition of the functional fire hazard class for a metro station in regulatory documents. An object with a massive stay of people, primarily in terms of evacuation of people in case of fire, is considered one of the most difficult. Based on this fact alone, when designing a metro line and stations, special technical conditions are necessarily developed. The existing set of rules for subways is not included in the list of regulatory documents that ensure compliance with fire safety requirements. Many questions arise when designing smoke ventilation systems, since the provisions of the existing set of rules, as one of the main regulatory documents for the design of smoke protection systems, cannot be fully applied to underground metro structures. The parameters and modes of air exchange in an extensive metro network depend not only on the selected operating modes of ventilation equipment, but also on the piston effect from the movement of trains in tunnels, on the configuration of buildings and wind load in the area of ventilation shafts on the surface, season, etc. A separate important issue is ensuring the stability of the air flow in case of fire. In practice, the phenomenon of “overturning the jet” is known – a change in direction, a reversal of the movement of the air flow in the mine due to a change in pressure in the area with a fire. According to the set of rules, the stability of the air flow is ensured if the calculated speed of the air flow in the area exceeds the critical speed. The critical speed in this case depends only on the section of the tunnel and the slope. Neither the design power of the fire, nor other significant parameters are taken into account when determining it, which, of course, is not entirely correct from a physical point of view. The ways of solving problematic issues related to ensuring the fire safety of subways are proposed.
Il ne reste rien de moi
Authors: Dethieux Jean-Baptiste 
Published: June 2023

Jean « souffre » de la nécessité impérieuse de disparaître ou plutôt de s’effacer dès lors qu’une relation amoureuse s’installe. De sorte, qu’au final, il « n’en reste rien »… Au terme d’un retournement de situation, il se retrouve non plus bourreau, mais victime et consulte. Son traitement sera l’occasion de dérouler une histoire infantile inscrite dans la discontinuité d’une présence maternelle du fait d’une grave dépression et d’un éloignement rendu nécessaire pour le traitement d’une maladie cancéreuse. Ainsi, l’effacement à l’œuvre est le « maître-mot » caractérisant la vie infantile et adulte de Jean, effacement de l’autre et de soi. Celui-ci n’est pas un concept psychanalytique à proprement parler, mais peut, ici, s’envisager comme un processus de négativation de la vie psychique issu de la désunion des pulsions et permettant de lutter contre l’émergence de certaines représentations. Il devient alors un recours défensif ultime contre un objet devenu menaçant pour le moi.
Psychanalyse française et psychanalyse italienne : quelle relation les lie ?
Authors: B. Baldassarro Andrea 
Published: June 2023

La psychanalyse italienne est caractérisée par de multiples influences héritées de son histoire et sa culture, mais elle ne manque pas d’une certaine originalité dans : la relation analytique, les modèles utilisés dans le travail clinique, les défenses infantiles primitives, le travail de groupe, la prise en compte du contre-transfert et de l’identité de l’analyste et avec un intérêt de plus en plus tourné vers les pathologies non névrotiques. Différentes positions coexistent, ce qui constitue à la fois une richesse – une plus grande possibilité de choisir entre différents modèles – et une limite : l’absence d’un modèle unificateur pouvant agir comme un fédérateur et « dénominateur commun » pour le discours analytique.
Quantitative Texture Analysis of Parotid Gland Ultrasound Images Yield Higher Correlation with Scintigraphy than Semiquantitative Scoring in Primary Sjögren’s Syndrome Patients
Authors: Lu Cheng-Hsun , Huang Yi-Min , Hsieh Song-Chou , Li Ko-Jen 
Published: June 2023

Background:
Ultrasound (US) can detect salivary gland abnormalities in primary Sjögren’s syndrome (SS). This study aimed to compare the correlation among the semiquantitative US scores, texture features, and the quantitative salivary gland scintigraphy (SGS) results.

Methods:
This retrospective study included 11 patients who were diagnosed with primary SS and underwent US examinations of the parotid glands and SGS simultaneously. We evaluated SGS quantitatively based on the calculation of maximum accumulation ratio (MAR) and stimulated excretion fraction (EF). The US findings were accessed through the semiquantitative Outcome Measures in Rheumatology scoring system and by gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) texture analysis. Spearman’s rank correlation tests were performed.

Results:
A significant moderate negative correlation was noted between the semiquantitative US score and MAR (rho = −0.57, P = 0.006), but not with EF (rho = −0.11, P = 0.613). The GLCM texture metrics, including contrast, dissimilarity, and homogeneity, were all determined to be significantly associated with both MAR and EF. The GLCM contrast correlated moderately to MAR (rho = −0.66, P = 0.001). The GLCM homogeneity highly correlated to EF (rho = 0.74, P < 0.001). The contrast and homogeneity can still discriminate the changes in MAR and EF in the subgroups with the same semiquantitative US scores.

Conclusion:
US findings on parotid gland can correlate with SGS results when analyzed based on GLCM texture features. With the GLCM texture metrics, US appears to be an excellent imaging tool for the assessment of the parotid glands in primary SS patients.
Humeral Length versus Femur Length for Estimating Fetal Age in the Third Trimester Using Ultrasound among Saudi Fetuses
Authors: Hassan Mahasin G. 
Published: June 2023

Background:
Ethnicity can influence organ measurements, so each ethnicity should provide normal references. The study was conducted to measure the normal ranges of humeral and femoral diaphysis lengths, to compare them during the third trimester of pregnancy in the Saudi population, and to identify their role in estimating fetal age.

Methods:
This cross-sectional study was conducted among 60 normal singleton pregnant females in the third trimester. The fetal humeral length (HL) and femur length (FL) were taken during ultrasound scanning for follow-up. The IBM Statistical Package for the Social Sciences Version 23 was used to summarize the data and to compare both the lengths with the last menstrual period (LMP) using Pearson’s correlation. The comparison was considered statistically significant if P < 0.05.

Results:
The mean humeral and femoral diaphysis lengths ± standard deviations were 4.84 ± 1 cm and 5.54 ± 1.2 cm, respectively. A positive linear correlation was present between the length and LMP. The correlation of HL with LMP (r = 0.828) was higher than that of FL with LMP (r = 0.770). HL and FL were correlated. They showed a Pearson’s coefficient of 0.941. The study revealed that gender does not affect fetal HL and FL.

Conclusion:
Normal reference ranges for femur and humeral diaphysis lengths during the third trimester were provided. The humerus can be used to assess fetal age. Humerus and femur were correlated to each other among Saudi fetuses. Another study with a larger sample size is recommended.

Published: June 2023

Aim: Long-term exposure to sodium valproate, an antiepileptic drug, causes toxic effects in tissues, especially by increasing oxidative stress and inflammation. Rutin is a flavanoid with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects found naturally in many plants. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of rutin, a natural antioxidant, on sodium valproate-induced spleen tissue damage.
Materials and Methods: 35 male rats were divided into 5 groups as control, sodium valproate, rutin, sodium valproate+Rutin 50 and sodium valproate+Rutin 100 groups. For 14 days, 500 mg/kg dose of sodium valproate and 50 or 100 mg/kg of rutin were administered by oral gavage. On day 15, spleen tissues were removed and biochemical methods, oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptotic parameters were analyzed and histologic analysis was performed.
Results: The levels of sodium valproate-induced oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis parameters increased in spleen tissues compared to the control group (p
On Some Syntactic Peculiarities of the Armenian Translation of Faulkner’s Absalom, Absalom!
Authors: Karapetyan Ruzanna 
Published: June 2023

The grandiose novel of William Faulkner “Absalom!Absalom!” is a majestic example of a piece of writing which encompasses diverse layers of plots, social layers, and dramatic collisions, revealed through intricate linguistic apparatus, particularly a very specific syntactic organization. The paper is an attempt to make a close comparison of the original and the Armenian texts of the novel, translated by Levon Mkrtchyan. The analysis of the syntactic complexity of the novel and its appropriate rendering into the Armenian language has been conducted within the framework of three sets of translation methods, elaborated by J.P.Vinay’s and J. Darbelnet and M.Baker. The results of the investigation manifest a striking deviation from the original text on the syntactic and textual levels. Scrupulous quantitative and qualitative data and interpretation are provided in the conclusion.
Effects of Intergroup Contact in an Official Bilingual Language Teaching Context on Mutual Stereotypes
Authors: Ngum Melvis , Evani Evani , Neba Ayu’nwi 
Published: June 2023

Purpose: This paper reports findings of an investigation of the effects of intergroup contact in a bilingual language teaching context on stereotypes of each group towards each other. The pre and post intergroup contact attitudes of Cameroonian Anglophone Bilingual Teachers (ABT) and those of Francophone Bilingual Teachers (FBT) towards each other were determined and compared.
Methodology: A mixed method research design that relied on a two-phase explanatory sequential strategy was employed to collect the data. It comprised an anonymous self-report survey of 97 bilingual teachers and a follow-up interview of 6 of these teachers. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the quantitative data and content analysis was used to explore the textual data.
Findings: The study revealed that while ABT indicated negative attitudes towards FBT, prior to starting their training, FBT on their part, expressed positive considerations of Anglophones (they saw them as polite, hospitable and hardworking people). In the end, ABT moved from seeing FBT as arrogant to calling them simple and assiduous learners. Nevertheless, they scorned the FBT’s insolence. The contact reinforced FBT’s prior training positive attitudes towards ABT whom they found to be friendly, convivial and courteous.
Recommendations: The study concludes that intergroup contact positively influenced ABT attitudes towards FBT, while FBT maintained their pre-training positive attitudes towards ABT. Intergroup contact in an official bilingual teacher training classroom, therefore, can be a fertile ground for the elimination of stereotypes and promotion of the spirit of living together.

Published: June 2023

Os estudos sobre os processos de institucionalização de demandas, recursos de atuação, valores e categorias dos movimentos sociais no Estado, bem como das capacidades estatais produzidas nesses processos, têm ganhado cada vez mais destaque, seja na Ciência Política, na Sociologia ou na Antropologia. Diversos conceitos e ferramentas analíticas têm sido desenvolvidos e/ou reatualizados com o objetivo de analisar de maneira complexa os fenômenos correspondentes à institucionalização dos movimentos sociais, notadamente a transformação de suas demandas e projetos em políticas públicas, a institucionalização do acesso de atores de movimentos ao Estado, e o reconhecimento desses atores como intermediários legítimos de determinados grupos sociais. Dentre diversos conceitos e perspectivas analíticas avançadas no debate nos útlimos anos, no país, está aquela centada nos ‘encaixes institucionais’ e ‘domínios de agência’, inscrita na tradição do neoinstitucionalismo histórico e informada por uma perspectiva centrada na mútua constituição entre atores sociais e Estado. A difusão e usos destes conceitos mostraram não apenas ganhos analíticos, mas também ambiguidades, insuficiências e questões não tematizadas na proposta original. O objetivo desta entrevista com os autores dessa abordgem é, à luz das lacunas detectadas em um levantamento de usos na literatura, aprofundar o entendimento teórico da abordagem dos encaixes institucionais e de domínios de agência, e suas possíveis aplicações na pesquisa empírica.

Published: June 2023

Alkaline water is water with a higher pH level than normal drinking water, it has a pH between 7-9.5 and it also has antioxidant activity. Aloe vera (Aloe vera) contains nutrients, vitamins and minerals that can function as natural antioxidants, such as vitamins C, vitamins A, magnesium, and zinc. Fresh aloe vera is less acceptable and preferred because of its taste, so it is necessary to process A. vera into a more durable and acceptable product. This study aims at determining the best and acceptable A. vera alkaline drink formula through product stability testing, including organoleptic, pH measurement, microbiological test. Then, the selected formula is analysed for antioxidant activity using DPPH, while nutritional content testing including fat content, protein content, and carbohydrate content. The result of the stability test of alkaline A. vera drink with concentrations of F1 (10%), F2 (20%), and F3 (30%) after accelerated storage conditions at 5oC and 35oC organoleptically did not change, and ulfilled the requirements under the Minister of Health Regulation of the Food and Drug Administration number 13 of 2019, but the pH decreased because of oxidation reaction of phenolic compounds from A. vera gel which produced aloetic acid and chrysophanic acid. The hedonic test, a result of the selected formula was F3 (30%) had a strong antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 9.952%, fat content 0.09%, protein content 0.16% and carbohydrate content 57.02%.
ENHANCED TOTAL PHENOLIC CONTENT EXTRACTION FROM CUCUMIS MELO L. (KULTIK) KERNEL BY DEEP EUTECTIC SOLVENT (DES)
Authors: AYDIN Çağlar Mert 
Published: June 2023

Kernel of Cucumis melo L is a by-product produced from the water-melon production process. The phenolic compounds could be considered as a potential bioactive source for industrial applications. Therefore, the extraction of these compounds as much as possible will decrease valuable waste and could lead to produce value-added products. In the first part of this study, comparation of the effect of DESs and conventional solvent on total phenolic content (TPC) was performed. Some DESs had significantly better extraction yield than conventional solvent. Therefore, optimization of extraction conditions was performed by single factor experiment.
Optimized parameters are molar ratio, type of HBA (hydrogen bond acceptor), addition of water content, extraction time and extraction temperature. From the results obtained, all these parameters were found to have an impact on TPC extraction yield. Also, it is noteworthy that the extraction yield using some selected parameters was on decrease after a certain extent. The best extraction parameter for Cucumis melo L. was found to be choline chloride as HBA, 1:4 molar ratio, %30 water addition, 500 extraction temperature and 30 min extraction time. This result confirms that kernel of Cucumis melo L. is a valuable ingredient due to its bioactive content, DESs could be a good alternative to conventional solvents and the industrial applications of DESs could be possible.

Published: June 2023

In today's technology-driven era, the significance of continuous learning has grown exponentially, as individuals are required to acquire and develop new information and skills. This need has given rise to the concept of lifelong learning, which emphasizes the ongoing process of learning regardless of age, time, and location. This study aims to investigate the lifelong learning competencies of teachers, who play a crucial role in the learning processes of individuals, considering various variables.
Convenience sampling was used to select 329 teachers, and they were administered the 'Lifelong Learning Competency Scale' developed by Hürsen (2011). The scale comprises sub-dimensions such as 'self-management competencies', 'learning to learn competencies', 'initiative and entrepreneurial competencies', 'knowledge acquisition competencies', 'digital competencies', and 'decision-making competencies'. Data analysis was performed with the JAMOVI program using descriptive statistics, Independent Sample t-Test, ANOVA, Pearson Correlation Analysis, and regression analysis.
The findings of the study indicated that teachers' lifelong learning competencies were at a high level, particularly the 'self-management competencies' sub-dimension, which demonstrated exceptional results. The remaining sub-dimensions also displayed high competency levels. Furthermore, the study concluded that teachers' lifelong learning competencies did not exhibit significant differences based on their gender, marital status, or the type of school they worked in.
