Justifying medication decisions in mental health care: psychiatrists’ accounts for treatment recommendations
No full textPsychiatric practitioners are currently encouraged to adopt a patient centered approach that emphasizes the sharing of decisions with their clients, yet recent research suggests that fully collaborative decision making is rarely actualized in practice. This paper uses the methodology of Conversation Analysis to examine how psychiatrists justify their psychiatric treatment recommendations to clients. The analysis is based on audio-recordings of interactions between clients with severe mental illnesses (such as, schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, etc.) in a long-term, outpatient intensive community treatment program and their psychiatrist. Our focus is on how practitioners design their accounts (or rationales) for recommending for or against changes in medication type and dosage and the interactional deployment of these accounts. We find that psychiatrists use two different types of accounts: they tailor their recommendations to the clients' concerns and needs (client-attentive accounts) and ground their recommendations in their professional expertise (authority-based accounts). Even though psychiatrists have the institutional mandate to prescribe medications, we show how the use of accounts displays psychiatrists' orientation to building consensus with clients in achieving medical decisions by balancing medical authority with the sensitivity to the treatment relationship.Peer reviewedAvailable online 29 April 2015 and published in the August 2015 issue, according to the publisher's website.Author's Manuscript is available open access in PubMed Central: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4595152/pdf/nihms720125.pdf

Grasse Diary by Galina Kuznetsova — the self-portrait of the author
No full textGrasse Diary (Грасский дневник, 1967), the most famous work by Galina Kuznetsova, for years has been treated mostly as the book about Ivan Bunin. It contains her account of fifteen years spent with Bunin in Grasse and Paris, wherefore it has been attracted particular interest of Bunin’s researchers.
Bunin is the central figure of Grasse Diary, yet Kuznetsova, according to Lejeune’s
„autobiographical pact”, remains the author, the narrator of her story and character
who is being talked about. Discrete entries include her experiences, thoughts,
feelings, comment on current events. Kuznetsova creates the self-portrait, presents
a deeply subjective vision of the world. Some equal strategies can be found in her
narration: an observer strategy, participant strategy and introspection strategy.
The aim of this paper is to analyse them and to interpretate Kuznetsova’s image
given in her daily entries

Influence of physical motor activity on the level of catecholamine secretion
No full textTopicality. Determination of the level of efficiency of physical culture classes according to the study of catecholamine excretion to find out the role of physical activity in the activity of a certain level of integration of the neuroendocrine system in the body's adaptive processes.Objectives of the study: to study the content of catecholamines in the daily urine of groups of people who were engaged and those who were not engaged in physical culture by chromatographic method – to compare the results of the study to substantiate the relevance of research on the regularities of sympatho-adrenal system responses to various environmental factors.Research results.. Changes in the content of adrenaline, including its reduction in the urine of the main group in the dynamics and a slight increase in the content of dopamine in the urine compared with the control group testify of involving the exchange of catecholamines in the regulatory mechanisms of various physiological processes. A statistically significant higher level of adrenaline excretion and a decrease in the excretion of other catecholamines in the urine of the main group of subjects, and a better overall subjective state of the main group indicates a significant effect of physical culture on the establishment of neurotransmitter balance, possibly due to activation of neurohormone synthesis.Conclusions. Physical training and sufficient motor activity have a positive effect on the production and excretion of catecholamines and the establishment of an optimal neurotransmitter balance to improve adaptive processes in the human bod
Demystifying Galina Ustvolskaya: Critical Examination and Performance Interpretation.
No full textThis thesis presents a performer’s view of Galina Ustvolskaya and her music with the aim of demystifying her artistic persona. The author examines the creation of ‘Ustvolskaya Myth’ by critically analysing Soviet, Russian and Western literature sources, oral history on the subject and the composer’s personal recollections, and reveals paradoxes and parochial misunderstandings of Ustvolskaya’s personality and the origins of her music. Having examined all the available sources, the author argues that the ‘Ustvolskaya Myth’ was a self-made phenomenon that persisted due to insufficient knowledge on the subject.
In support of the argument, the thesis offers a performer’s interpretation of Ustvolskaya as she is revealed in her music. The author examines Ustvolskaya’s music from two viewpoints, a scholar and a performer, and draws upon inter-textual connections between Ustvolskaya’s music and Russian literature (Gogol, Dostoevsky, oberiuty) and aesthetics; analyses the influences of Russian musical traditions (Russian folklore, znamenny raspev) and some artistic individuals (Mussorgsky, Shostakovich, and Stravinsky), and examines the nature of Ustvolskaya’s spirituality and religiosity. The performance aspects of Ustvolskaya’s music are discussed as well as the specific nature of her writing for instruments, particularly the piano, and the interpretation and perception of her music by both the performers and the audience.
The thesis examines the performance history of Ustvolskaya’s works, and draws on interview materials with musicians who knew the composer and performed her music. The author’s own performance experience and that derived from the ‘Ustvolskaya at Chetham’s’ project which involved young musicians in studying and performing Ustvolskaya’s compositions, underlined the practical value of the research. While supporting the view of Ustvolskaya as a singular composer, the thesis stands to demystify and reevaluate her artistic image
Syntéza substituovaných oxadiazolů s předpokládanou antimykobakteriální aktivitou

Galina Karabanovich, Ph.D. Title of Diploma Thesis: Synthesis of substituted oxadiazoles with potential antimycobacterial activity Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by mycobacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which is one of the top ten causes of death worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, 10.4 million new cases were reported in 2016 and 1.7 million people died of this disease (including 0.4 million people with HIV). Treatment of tuberculosis caused by drug-susceptible strains of M. tuberculosis is very successful, with up to 82% of patients cured. However, a major problem is the therapy of patients with drug resistant strains of M. tuberculosis. Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a TB that cannot be cured by isoniazid (INH) or rifampicin (RIF), the two most effective first-line antituberculotics. In this case, TB is treated with second-line antituberculotics, which should be administered for up to two years. However, according to statistics, only 32.2% of patients with MDR-TB are successfully cured in the European Union. Therefore, it is important to look for and develop new drugs that act on MDR-TB and can help...Univerzita Karlova Farmaceutická fakulta v Hradci Králové Katedra organickej a bioorganickej chémie Autor: Daniela Mészárosová Školiteľ: Ing.

Podľa svetovej zdravotníckej organizácie bolo v roku 2016 zaznamenaných 10,4 milióna nových prípadov a 1,7 milióna ľudí tomuto onemocneniu podľahlo (vrátane 0,4 milióna ľudí s HIV). Liečba tuberkulózy spôsobenej liekovo citlivými kmeňmi M. tuberculosis je veľmi úspešná, vylieči sa až 82% pacientov. Veľkým problémom je ale terapia pacientov s liekovo rezistentnými kmeňmi M. tuberculosis. Multiliekovo-rezistentná tuberkulóza (MDR-TB) je TB, ktorá sa nedá vyliečiť izoniazidom (INH) ani rifampicínom (RIF), takže dvomi najúčinnejšími antituberkulotikami prvej línie. V takomto prípade je TB liečená antituberkulotikami druhej línie, ktoré je nutné podávať až dva roky. I tak sa v Európskej únii podľa štatistiky úspešne vylieči iba 32,2% pacientov s MDR-TB. Preto je dôležité venovať sa hľadaniu a vývoji nových liečiv, ktoré by pôsobili na MDR-TB a mohli pomôcť...Katedra organické a bioorganické chemieDepartment of Organic And Bioorganic ChemistryFarmaceutická fakulta v Hradci KrálovéFaculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králov
The poetic motif of the sea in the poetry of Galina Kuznetsova
No full textThe subject of analysis in this article is the poetic complex of the sea in the poetry of Galina Kuznetsova, a poet representing the “first wave” of Russian emigration. In the Olive Orchard (Олив-ковый сад, 1937), the only poetry book she published, the sea appears as a source of aesthetic sen-sations, but above all it is an impulse for existential reflections of the narrative subject, a projection of his mental states and an explanation of her artistic worldview.In the analysis of maritime themes in Kuznetsova’s poetry, Vladimir Toporov’s research was used. according to which the poetic complex of the sea is determined by the psychophysiological structure of the author of the text and is a carrier of non-poetic realities
