description: In view of the climate crisis, the development and the path of growth and expansion of renewable energy systems is an urgent task, but must carried out with great care on environmental compatibility and protection. Renewable energy supply systems that are suitable for grid-bound heat supply, particularly in urban areas in Europe, are geothermal binary plants that provide power as well as power and heat. This paper will present studies whose objective was the assessment of hydrogeothermal power and heat generation in low-enthalpy regions from the environmental standpoint. The German Environment Agency published results of a network of studies conducted between 2008 and 2016 on the analysis of detailed and comprehensive environmental impacts of the geothermal energy generation in Germany and has continuously evaluated these findings. In this article, the results of the Life Cycle Assessment are discussed, taking into account all effects and material flows within the entire life cycle. Based on these balances, differing geothermal systems are compared to each other and to other renewable and fossil energy generation systems in order to assess the ecological advantages and disadvantages of these systems. Taking into account local environmental impacts as well a comprehensive ecologic evaluation of potential environmental and human health impacts becomes possible. The paper presents the results of a) the mass and energy fluxes of the process chain along the life cycle, and b) the local environmental impacts along the life cycle with regard to the environmental indicators of these cases. The focus is on the impact of site and plant parameters. Concluding, it can be summarised that geothermal power and heat generation is a very low-carbon technology and can contribute to a sustainable energy supply. Hydrogeothermal plants show a significantly low surface consumption, and environmental impacts are only locally relevant and technically controllable. Through the development of optimised overall concepts, geothermal based power and heat generation can achieve minimal environmental impacts in all areas. The combined heat and power generation from geothermal resources is by far the most environmentally and climate-friendly energy supply compared to all other regenerative and fossil systems. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd.
Efficient keyword based search over structured data

description: Keyword search is integrated in many applications on account of the convenience to convey users query intention, because the success of this research will relieve users from learning complex structure query languages and knowing the underlying schema of the queried data. Recently, answering keyword queries on both XML and graph data has drawn the attention of web and database communities. XML is the standard for data representation and exchange on the Internet. Graph also provides a common representation of relational database and network such as social network, traffic network. The universality of XML and graph representations makes them often be the natural choice when integrating data from different sources with various schemas. Supporting keyword queries on free structured and graph structured data is therefore fundamentally important. Furthermore, the rapid growth of user-generated content on the web or in social media also results in a huge explosion in demand for supporting keyword queries.
Governing Land Use in Kenya: From Sectoral Fragmentation to Sustainable Integration of Law and Policy

description: The search for development that is sustainable often results in the complex challenge of having to reconcile the need for socio-economic activities with protection of the environment. This challenge of integrating such fundamentally important considerations that often contrast, but should be mutually supportive, is necessarily addressed by legal and policy frameworks of the country in question. These could be laws and policies with competence to manage the environment, or to manage socio-economic and political activities that impact the environment. This challenge is profound for developing countries like Kenya that experience higher levels of degradation, poverty and food insecurity. Arguably in this context, while addressing integration involves reconciliation of legal principles for a coherent legal concept of sustainability, it is also a serious matter of survival for millions of people. This raises compelling reasons to ensure that any legal reform measures positively impact how these people make decisions on the socio-economic utilization of land or forestry resources that they have access to. The research aimed to develop a legal and policy framework that will facilitate integration of environmental protection with socio-economic activities during land use decision making, as a mechanism to achieve sustainability. We investigated how a legal/policy framework, founded in the 2010 Constitution, and in environmental and tenure rights laws of Kenya, can conceptually reconcile the right (and duty) respecting a clean environment, with socio-economic rights. The research further analysed how such conceptual reconciliation can impact integration in policies, plans and decision making by sectoral laws and institutions to ensure environmental consideration across sectoral areas. To this end, we have proposed enacting a legal duty requiring tenure rightholders to integrate their socio-economic activities with environmental protection during land use decision making. We further frame mechanisms to guide the attitudes, and decisions of farmers and forest communities in making that transition to sustainable practices.
The Impact of Attitudes toward Internet Technology and Demographics on Saudi Consumers’ Use of Online Buying

description: Some studies have been conducted in recent years to investigate the reasons behind Saudi Arabia’s lag in the adoption of online buying. Most of them have focused on barriers influencing or contributing to environmental or architectural factors such as trust issues, lack of address systems, security issues, and privacy issues. However, Saudi Arabia has no scholarly studies about the role of people’s attitudes toward technology in their adoption of online buying. In this research, we study the impact of Saudi people’s attitudes towards technology on their adoption of online buying, and we also investigate the relationship between Saudi people’s demographics and their adoption of online buying. The study was based on a survey conducted in Saudi Arabia using the TRI scale, adapted from Parasuraman (2000) and its four dimensions: Innovativeness, Optimism, Discomfort and Insecurity. The adoption of online buying is treated as a technology adoption in this study (Parasuraman, 2000). The analysis of the data collected revealed that attitudes toward technology have an impact on Saudi people’s adoption of online buying with Innovativeness and Insecurity being the most important factors. Demographics also matter with education being the most important of the demographic factors. Results also indicate that attitudes towards technology are more important than demographics at explaining adoption of online buying in Saudi Arabia.

description: Navigating to a previously seen target without vision was unaffected by a 30-sec delay period at the beginning of the walking task. This study investigated whether a 60-sec delay, with or without a cognitive task, would modify the accuracy of reaching an 8-meter target. Thirty young adults participated. The delay, located at 0, 4, or 7 meters, was either to wait, or to count backwards. Kinematic data of distance travelled, distance-to-target, angular deviation, and body rotation from participants’ final position were recorded with a 3-D motion analysis system. Navigation precision was not significantly different with or without a delay, and whether or not the delays contained a cognitive task. However, comparisons among delays revealed a significant effect of delay position with larger distance errors occurring at the 0-meter delay in the 16 participants who walked at least 7 meters, suggesting that a delay at the beginning was more disruptive for navigation accuracy than when it occurred closer to the target.

description: Background: Young childbearing women have an increased risk of experiencing perinatal depression when compared to adult childbearing women. Perinatal depression has been associated with adverse life events in the literature and conceptually, in frameworks such as the Lifecycle Approach to Risk Factors for Mental Disorders Model. Purpose: The purpose of this manuscript-based thesis was to (1) determine the prevalence of: (i) adverse life events that have been associated with depression and (ii) depressive symptoms among the young pregnant and parenting women who access specialized services in an urban centre in Ontario, Canada; (2) determine which adverse life events are predictive of depression during the perinatal period, in this population; and (3) examine the psychometric properties of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) for use in a population of young childbearing women who access specialized services in an urban centre in Ontario, Canada. Methods: A survey was conducted with 102 young women from two agencies that provide specialized services to young parents. The interviewer-administered questionnaire included demographic questions, the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, the Antenatal Psychosocial Health Assessment, the Centers for Epidemologic Studies Depression Scale, Brown’s Support Behaviour Inventory. Results: 31.4% of the sample screened positive for perinatal depression. The only adverse life events found to predict perinatal depression were satisfaction with support from ‘others’ and intimate partner violence. Another predictor was very young maternal age (14 – 17 years). The EPDS was found to be psychometrically sound when used in this population of young childbearing women. Conclusion: In this study of young childbearing women in Ontario, Canada, we found a high prevalence rate of perinatal depression and adverse life events. Furthermore, we identified specific factors that predict the development of perinatal depression in this group. Nurses can use these findings to help prioritize perinatal screening efforts to identify this condition early on in order to lessen the adversities related to perinatal depression.

description: In Deutschland und in Europa besteht ein kleiner, jedoch stetig wachsender Markt für biologisch abbaubare Kunststoffe. Die Produkte aus den betreffenden Materialien werden in der Landwirtschaft und im Gartenbau sowie als Sammelbeutel für Bioabfälle eingesetzt. Zusätzlich ist ein wachsender Einsatz im Verpackungs- und Bedarfsgegenständesektor zu beobachten. Der Einsatz biologisch abbaubarer Kunststoffe in Produkten und besonders der Umgang mit biologisch abbaubaren Kunststoffabfällen werden jedoch kontrovers diskutiert. So wird die biologische Abbaubarkeit sowohl als Chance im Kampf gegen die langfristige Vermüllung der Umwelt als auch als Risiko für eine Verschärfung der Litteringproblematik und für einen potenziell verstärkten Eintrag in die Umwelt betrachtet. Vor diesem Hintergrund hat das Umweltbundesamt ein Gutachten in Auftrag gegeben, in welchem Materialien, Produkte und Standards der biologischen Abbaubarkeit beschrieben und die Verwertung betreffender Abfälle in fünf Mitgliedsstaaten der EU vergleichend dargestellt wurden. Zudem erfolgte eine Auswertung wissenschaftlicher Veröffentlichungen, welche sich mit dem Abbau von abbaubaren Kunststoffen in terrestrischen, aquatischen und marinen Ökosystemen beschäftigen. Das Fazit ist, dass auch biologisch abbaubare Materialien in der Umwelt mehrere Monate und teilweise sogar einige Jahre beständig sein können.

Measuring the impact of sea surface temperature on the human incidence of Vibrio sp. infection in British Columbia, Canada, 1992–2017

description: Background: Vibrio growth in the environment is related to sea surface temperature (SST). The incidence of human Vibrio illness increased sharply in British Columbia (BC) between 2008 and 2015 for unknown reasons, culminating in the largest outbreak of shellfish-associated Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp) in Canadian history in 2015. Our objective was to assess the relationship between SST and Vibrio illness in BC, Canada during 1992–2017 and assess the role of SST and other environmental factors in the 2015 Vp outbreak. Methods: Cases of Vibrio infection reported to the BC Centre for Disease Control during 1992–2017 were used. SST data were obtained from NOAA and NASA. We assessed changes in incidence trend of annual Vibrio cases during 1992–2017 using a Poisson regression. We assessed the correlation between annual Vibrio cases and the average annual maximum SST using a Spearman rank-order correlation. We modeled the association between weekly Vp case counts, SST and other environmental factors during 2007–2017 using a Poisson regression. Results: There was a significant increase in Vibrio cases between 2008 and 2015 (annual slope = 0.163, P < 0.001). Increased Vibrio incidence was observed in most El Niño years. There was a significant correlation between annual Vibrio cases and maximum SST from 1992 to 2017 (r = 0.46, P = 0.018). Our model captured observed seasonal variation in shellfish-associated Vp in most years, but underestimated the 2015 Vp outbreak. Conclusions: Vibrio incidence has been increasing concurrently with increasing SST in BC during 2008–2015. The 2015 Vp outbreak was not fully explained by climatic factors and may in part have been associated with other factors. Vp subtyping would be useful in the future to understand the combined effects of SST changes and strain emergence.

description: The North Caribou Greenstone Belt (NCGB) lies at the core the granitoid-dominant North Caribou Terrane (NCT). Two sedimentary assemblages; the Eyapamikama (ELS) and Zeemal-Heaton Lake (ZHA) form the core of the NCGB. Geochemistry of garnets from the orogenic Au deposit at Musselwhite suggest that the auriferous fluids have a contribution of metamorphic fluids and mineralization consisted of prolonged, multi-stage periods. Chemical zoning suggests changes in the influx of chalcophile and lithophile elements and that Au/sulphide ratios during nucleation were lower relative to later growth events. Zircons from the ELS and ZHA suggest a c. 100 My hiatus in the onset of sedimentation, with the ZHA showing younger, “Timiskaming-type” ages. Age distributions from each assemblage reflect proximal, igneous sources. Nd isotopic compositions of the ZHA suggest a mixture of ancient and contemporaneous sources which are similar to external TTG rocks. Deplete mantle model ages of the ZHA rocks indicate a Mesoarchean inheritance.
Applying minority game to road traffic assignment

Year: 2024

description: The selection of routes by the travellers in a road network is known as traffic assignment which causes traffic flow. A balanced distribution of traffic causes high utilisation of the network. In this thesis, I proposed a simple and realistic model which can distribute traffic in a balanced way according to the road capacities. To analyse the applicability of the proposed model a framework to evaluate such models was necessary which was absent in the domain of road traffic assignment. Therefore, I also proposed a framework within which traffic assignment methods can be evaluated.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The impact of non- and poorly-wetting soils has a direct influence on the potential yield of rain-fed broad acre crops. This study investigated the nature of soil organic matter and how this induces hydrophobicity on the soil. By using two related soils (from Western Australia) of contrasting hydrophobicities and comparing them to model hydrophobic surfaces, these studies showed the underlying parameters that establish severe or moderate hydrophobicity.
The impact of hydrotropic agents on the efficiency of non-ionic surfactants used to ameliorate non-wetting soils was established in terms of the underlying mechanisms that influence the wetting dynamics in these soils.

description: This thesis examines Nietzsche’s relationship to Socrates through his positive philosophy of education, arguing that the latter is crucial to resolving the apparent contradictions of the former. While there is a good deal of literature dealing with Nietzsche’s criticisms of the educational system of his day, there is relatively little on his own account of what education should be. I point out that the Greek conception of agon (roughly “contest” in English), is central to Nietzsche’s understanding of education, and informs his ideal of the student-mentor relationship. This is the model on which, I contend, Nietzsche’s relation to Socrates needs to be interpreted. Such an interpretation helps to make sense of, and reconcile, the divergent pictures of Socrates Nietzsche presents in his texts, which are sometimes admiring and imitative, sometimes hostile and contemptuous, and have led to conflicting interpretations within the scholarship on this subject. My analysis aims to shed new light on both the figure of Nietzsche’s Socrates, and Nietzsche’s philosophy of education, by relating these to one another.

description: Exploring one of the intricacies of China’s internationally renowned rapid rates of economic growth and development, this research aims to tackle the issue of migrant marginalization and social exclusion, through the exploration of access to education for migrant children. While vast literature on access to education for migrant children in urban settings currently exists, the existing literature largely lacks a gendered understanding and/or analysis. This research thus, aims to initiate discussion, and provide for a preliminary attempt at understanding the manifold relationships, and contemporary realities of deeply rooted ‘son preference’ across Chinese culture, and the socially exclusionary functions of the hukou citizenship system, through a historical institutionalist lens, within the context of one of the greatest mass migrations “possibly, in the history of the world,” (Nielsen, Smyth & Vicziany, 2007, 1). The research presented is rooted in a case study, conducted in Dongguan, Guangzhou, China in the summer of 2013, which involved surveying and speaking to migrant parents in the region. The primary data collected allowed for a preliminary analysis and thus, insight into a gendered evaluation of access to education for migrant children, highlighting trends and changes in gendered values across the migratory process. Additionally, this research further ignited a theoretical and conceptual discussion on the hukou citizenship system in the framing of hukou status as “inherited property,” a concept derived from the work of Shachar and Hirschl (2007), and further analyzed alongside North’s work on Institutions (1989, 1991), lending to a comprehensive and contemporary understanding of the hukou citizenship system and the barriers it causes in the upward social mobility of migrant workers.

Горицкая обитель на протяжении нескольких веков была местом пребывания женщин из высших кругов русского средневекового общества, часто постриженных насильно. В монастыре также несли иноческое послушание женщины из посадских людей и крестьян. Постриженицы из разных слоев русского общества искали духовной опоры у прп. Кирилла, защиты и поддержки у кирилловских старцев. Богатые и разнообразные «даяния» горицких стариц отразились во вкладных книгах Кирилло-Белозерского монастыря. Вкладывали в Кириллов монастырь почитаемые иконы, церковное облачение, сделанное из дорогих тканей, вышитое золотыми и серебряными нитями, богато украшенное жемчугом и драгоценными камнями, земельные угодья, скот, деньги, а также самые разнообразные предметы быта. Сохранившиеся произведения искусства, вышедшие из золотошвейной мастерской Евфросинии Старицкой, составляют часть российского национального достояния.

description: The aim of this thesis is to investigate the effects of additives, reactive elements and impurities, on the lifetime of thermal barrier coatings. The thesis consists of a number of studies on interface adhesion, impurity diffusion, grain boundary sliding and cleavage processes and their impact on the mechanical behaviour of grain boundaries. The effects of additives and impurity on interface adhesion were elaborated by using total energy calculations, electron localization and density of states, and by looking into the atomic separations. The results of these calculations allow the assessment of atomic level contributions to changes in the adhesive trend. Formation of new bonds across the interface is determined to improve the adhesion in reactive element(RE)-doped structures. Breaking of the cross interface bonds and sulfur(S)-oxygen(O) repulsion is found responsible for the decreased adhesion after S segregation. Interstitial and vacancy mediated S diffusion and the effects of Hf and Pt on the diffusion rate of S in bulk NiAl are studied. Hf is shown to reduce the diffusion rate, and the preferred diffusion mechanism of S and the influence of Pt are revealed to be temperature dependent. Finally, the effects of reactive elements on alumina grain boundary strength are studied. Reactive elements are shown to improve both the sliding and cleavage resistance, and the analysis of atomic separations suggest an increased ductility after the addition of quadrivalent Hf and Zr to the alumina grain boundaries.

description: This paper reports our recent findings on the analysis of riders' performance patterns in the new (third version) Track Cycling Omnium. We have made use of statistical and machine learning techniques to analyse data in recent omnium competitions and compared the results with our previous findings on the older version of the omnium to understand how and whether the new omnium requires different skill sets and strategic planning for elite riders and their coaches. The results of our analysis shows that for both male and female riders, sprint abilities are more important than endurance abilities in the current omnium, contrary to the previous omnium where endurance abilities were slightly more prominent in female medal winners. In addition, the Flying Time Trial race remains the most important race for men while Individual Pursuit has become more important for female riders.

description: Статья прослеживает историю подготовки и открытия первых (с точки зрения хронологии) русских школ «взаимного обучения» — училищ первоначальной грамотности, устроенных по особому способу организации, разработанному английскими педагогами-просветителями Д. Беллом и Д. Ланкастером и распространившихся в Европе в начале XIX в. В 1817 г. школы «взаимного обучения» были открыты в полках Русского экспедиционного корпуса М. С. Воронцова, находившегося во Франции. Авторы опираются на неопубликованные материалы архива братьев Тургеневых, хранящегося в Рукописном отделе Института русской литературы РАН (Пушкинский Дом): переписку братьев А. И. и С. И. Тургеневых, записи дневника С. И. Тургенева, служебные рапорты и записки С. И. Тургенева, а также его помощника по открытию первых русских ланкастерских школ И. Ф. Ганри. В статье впервые приводятся полный текст служебной записки С. И. Тургенева о введении ланкастерского способа обучения в солдатских школах корпуса М. С. Воронцова и рапорта-записки И. Ф. Ганри, ранее атрибутировавшейся также С. И. Тургеневу. Создатели первых ланкастерских школ видели в них прежде всего «просветительский» потенциал — возможность быстро и во много раз увеличить количество обучаемых первоначальной грамоте и, таким образом, ускорить процесс приобщения к грамотности широких слоев непривилегированного населения. Однако дневники С. И. Тургенева позволяют рассматривать эти чисто просветительские усилия в контексте его более общих политических размышлений о развитии либерализма в России.

description: The purpose of this thesis is to devise a system based on RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) that can be used for smart healthcare applications. Location estimation, eloping prevention and occupancy detection are monitoring applications of smart healthcare which can provide very useful information for the nursing and administration staff of the nursing-home/hospital. The introduction of ubiquitous networking along with the concepts such as Internet of Things (IoT) can certainly help achieve the goals of smart healthcare. RFID technology has features, such as low power and small size, which makes this technology suitable for researching solutions for smart healthcare. Today several nursing-home/hospital monitoring solutions exist in the market and academia alike. The solutions marketed commercially are very expensive whereas the solutions from academia provides solutions to isolated problems but a comprehensive all in one solution that can meet the need of smart healthcare monitoring applications is missing. In this thesis we present a system that is low cost and suitable for accommodating a number of the smart healthcare applications including occupancy detection, location estimation, eloping prevention and access control. The solution is implemented on a customized Openbeacon Active RFID System (OARS). Active RFID based proximity detection is the core of our system. Practical experiments based on novel Proximity Detection based Weighted Centroid Localization (PD-WCL) method were done to analyze the performance of the system with different applications to highlight the applicability of the system.

description: The cognitive and/or behavioural problems associated with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) place this population at increased risk of involvement in the justice system. Although FASD poses challenges at each stage of the justice system, legal discussion and commentary have pinpointed the sentencing stage as the phase in which the issue of FASD is most commonly raised and considered. The purpose of this study is to examine if (and how) FASD is being taking into consideration at sentencing. To this end, a comparative analysis of 87 sentencing judgments (42 FASD offenders and 45 non-FASD offenders) reported in Quicklaw was conducted. Cases were matched on most serious offence (assault, robbery and sexual assault) and jurisdiction (Yukon, British Columbia and Ontario). Descriptions of FASD and non-FASD offenders as reported by judges were found to differ in a number of significant ways. Similarly, sentencing purposes applied to each offender group emerged as distinct. Despite these distinctions, no differences were found in the type and length of sentence handed down (even after controlling for criminal record and breaches). These findings indicate a need for further research and possible policy changes.

description: В статье рассматривается личный состав института исправников на территории дворянских уездов Вологодской губернии в 1838–1863 гг., т. е. за последние 25 лет существования там земских судов, на основе базы данных, включающей сведения о происхождении, времени появления на свет, образовании и службе входивших в него лиц. Среди использованных для составления базы данных рукописных источников особое место занимают хранящиеся в Государственном архиве Вологодской области послужные, или формулярные о службе списки и материалы дворянских выборов, а печатных — газета «Вологодские губернские ведомости». Лица, стоявшие во главе земских судов в дворянских уездах Вологодской губернии в период 1838– 1863 гг., по происхождению, что вполне ожидаемо, принадлежали к дворянскому сословию, но в дворянском мире видных мест не занимали. Высшего образования ни у кого из них не было. Образовательный уровень основной части (исходя из собранных сведений, сочли возможным определить в 58%) — средний (по меркам того времени довольно хороший). Большинство (68%) возглавлявших земскую полицию на день избрания земскими исправниками или, в иных случаях, начала службы в качестве земских исправников в период 1838–1863 гг., состояло в возрасте до 35 лет (включительно). До избрания земскими исправниками или начала службы в качестве земских исправников все служили. Применительно к интересующему нас времени подавляющая масса (68%) находилась на службе от 10 лет и выше. Основную часть (68%) стоявших во главе земской полиции образовывали профессиональные военные. В войсковой элите — в лейб-гвардии — числился только один из них, причем сравнительно недолго. В боевых действиях принимал участие 31% от отнесенных к категории профессиональных военных. Большинство вошедших в эту категорию лиц до того, как возглавило земскую полицию, не входило в ряды гражданских служащих. Перед избранием земскими исправниками или началом службы в этом качестве в границах, захватывающих частично период 1838–1863 гг., 79% от общего числа пребывали не у дел (в этот процент входят почти все отнесенные к категории профессиональных военных), 74% состояли в чинах IX, X и XII классов. Не менее полноценного шестилетия по продолжительности фактически прослужили во главе земской полиции на дворянском юго-западе губернии в очерченных границах 37% от общего числа, а следовательно, даже менее 5 лет — 63%. Безвозвратно ушли со службы по истечении соответствующих шестилетий 42% от общего числа, а вследствие увольнения по собственному желанию — 37%. Для большинства служба в качестве земских исправников на дворянском юго-западе губернии не стала последней.

description: Статья основана на документах Государственного архива Владимирской области, а также на опубликованной официальной документации и материалах местной периодической печати. Установлены принципы комплектования штатов уездной и городской милиции во Владимирской губернии, их социальный и профессиональный состав, партийная принадлежность руководителей и рядовых правоохранителей; выяснены их компетенция, размеры жалованья, показаны трудности, которые испытывали сотрудники вновь учрежденной правоохранительной структуры. Рядовыми стражами порядка становились малограмотные крестьяне, рабочие и бывшие солдаты-фронтовики; главами участков и уездов — служащие и интеллигенция с преимущественно средним и низшим образованием. Правоохранители не имели необходимого профессионального опыта, штатный состав не был полностью укомплектован, были трудности с финансированием, средствами передвижения, оружием; всё это весьма осложняло их работу.

О «наиболее узком из всех узких мест» плана Первой пятилетки: к вопросу о дефиците кадров и «чистках» на советских заводах

description: Интенсивное восстановление советской промышленности в годы нэпа и переход к развитию согласно первому пятилетнему плану привели в целом к замечательным экономическим успехам. Однако вместе с достижениями накапливались также дефициты и хозяйственные противоречия, ярким проявлением которых стал острый дефицит квалифицированных кадров для расширившихся старых и построенных новых промышленных гигантов. Нехватка «спецов» накладывалась на сталинистскую «культурную революцию», которая усугубляла проблемы, перелагая ответственность за просчеты и бесхозяйственность на местах на квалифицированных инженеров и фабрично-заводских служащих — выходцев из привилегированных слоев «старой» России. Публикация архивного документа, посвященного «чисткам» квалифицированного персонала на ленинградском заводе им. Козицкого, должна проиллюстрировать массовую кампанию среди партийного, советского и фабрично-заводского аппаратов, охватившую весь СССР.

description: Inflammation is often equated to the physiological response to injury or infection. Inflammatory responses defined by cytokine storms control cellular mechanisms that can either resolve quickly (i.e., acute inflammation) or remain prolonged and unabated (i.e., chronic inflammation). Perhaps less well-appreciated is the importance of inflammatory processes central to healthy pregnancy, including implantation, early stages of placentation, and parturition. Pregnancy juxtaposed with disease can lead to the perpetuation of aberrant inflammation that likely contributes to or potentiates maternal morbidity and poor fetal outcome. Maternal obesity, a prevalent condition within women of reproductive age, associates with increased risk of developing multiple pregnancy disorders. Importantly, chronic low-grade inflammation is thought to underlie the development of obesity-related obstetric and perinatal complications. While diverse subsets of uterine immune cells play central roles in initiating and maintaining healthy pregnancy, uterine leukocyte dysfunction as a result of maternal obesity may underpin the development of pregnancy disorders. In this review we discuss the current knowledge related to the impact of maternal obesity and obesity-associated inflammation on uterine immune cell function, utero-placental establishment, and pregnancy health.

description: На основе документов ЦГАИПД СПб, РГАСПИ и материалов газеты Кировского завода в статье рассматриваются последствия партийной чистки 1933 г., проверки, обмена партийных документов на заводе и последующего перехода к внесудебным методам в целях увеличения производства и улучшения качества продукции. Проведенное исследование дает возможность понять, каким образом ужесточение изначально демократических процедур в жизни парторганизации Кировского завода привело к насильственным изменениям в составе руководства заводом. Статья также позволяет осмыслить особенности сталинской революции второй половины 1930-х гг.
