    No full text
    “Neurodynamics” is an interdisciplinary area of mathematics where dynamical systems theory (deterministic and stochastic) is the primary tool for elucidating the fundamental mechanisms responsible for the behaviour of neural systems (whether biological or synthetic). A meeting on this topic was held at the International Centre for Mathematical Sciences in Edinburgh from March 5–7 in 2012. In this special issue, we have invited seven of the main contributors to this event to expand on their presentations and highlight the use of mathematics in understanding the dynamics of neural systems

    The purpose of the study is to conduct empirical and statistical evaluation, as well as subsequent comparative analysis of the expression of university adaptation components (social, didactic, and professional) in 1st year medical students studying on different financial basis (commercial, budgetary, and target contract). The scientific novelty of the study lies in the research of medical students’ adaptation processes in the context of their financial basis of education. The online testing method with the subsequent statistical analysis of the obtained data has been applied. To identify the level of expression of the university adaptation components, the method “Students’ adaptation to university” by M.S. Yurkina was used as a diagnostic tool. According to the obtained data, there are statistically significant differences in the levels of expression of the university adaptation components in 1st year medical students studying on a different financial basis. The least psychologically stable from the point of view of social infusion into the university environment are the students studying under the target contract. Didactic and professional adaptation components in higher education are least expressed in students studying on a commercial basis. The data obtained as a result of the study can be used in university educational activity to improve freshmen’s adaptation processes management considering the financial basis of their education, which will optimize the issue of preserving the contingent of students

    The adaptability of personality of medical university students studying at different courses is investigated. Various approaches to the definition of the concept of personality adaptability are analysed, methods of its diagnosis are considered, the structure of the personal adaptability of medical students of all training courses is revealed. As a result of an empirical study it was revealed that the greatest deficiency in the structure of personality adaptability, characterized by a socio-oriented orientation, prevails in the first, second and fourth years. The adaptability of the personality of third-year students is in the zone of average values. Students of the fifth and sixth years of a medical university have the most harmoniously developed adaptability with the predominant characteristics of an autonomously oriented personality

    The article is devoted to the study of the features of the personal adaptability structure of 1st year students of a medical university studying on a budgetary basis. The concept of the phenomenon of adaptability is given, various approaches to understanding the structural components of adaptability are analyzed. The study used the method of Kolpakova L.M., which reveals the adaptive attitude of the individual to difficult situations, and the method of Maklakov A.G., which diagnoses the adaptive abilities of the individual. Based on the results of the study, conclusions were drawn about the deficiency of the level of reflective-evaluative, cognitive-emotional components of adaptability and the general level of adaptive abilities of this group of students. The analysis of the behavioral component of adaptability demonstrates the opposite result of its parameters; based on the results of the analysis of the motivational-semantic component, average indicators for both of its parameters were revealed. It has been established that the majority of respondents have signs of character accentuations with a tendency to behavioral reactions of a neurotic type, low emotional stability and signs of a socio-oriented personality orientation

    N. S. Gumilev as a translator and an editor of “Robert Sothey. Ballads” of the publishing house “Vsemirnaya literature”

    N. Gumilev. The purpose of the publishing house was to produce collections of translations of the most famous literary works and to get Russian readers to acquaint with the world literature. Gumilev’s “Ballads” of Southey has pursued the same goal but with the characteristic of the Russian tradition of this poet’s reception. For the English public, Southey was mainly known as an author of historical epic poems, but in Russian literature he was more of a ballad master. This perception has made a lodgement thanks to the first and major translator of his poetry, V. A. Zhukovskiy whose favorite genre was a ballad. In the introduction to the collection of poems Gumilev has drawn attention to the importance of Zhukovskiy for the tradition of Russian Southey and has dedicated the whole book to this idea. Six ballads, the third part of all poems in the book are connected with Zhukovskiy: four of them were translated by him as individual poems and two more were included in a short hexametric novel “Two tales and one more” (“Mary, the maid of the Inn” and “Jaspar”). M. Gor’kiy didn’t like the idea of including Zhukovskiy’s translations in the book, but for Gumilev it was the question of high importance and he has struggled for it. His choice of the only ballad for his own translation also prove this concept: he has chosen “The Surgeon’s Warning”, Southey’s self-parody for one of his most noted poem in Russia thanks to Zhukovskiy’s translation

    A revision of Heterocotyle (Monogenea: Monocotylidae) with a description of Heterocotyle capricornensis n. sp. from Himantura fai (Dasyatididae) from Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia

    No full text
    Heterocotyle capricornensis n. sp. is described from the gills of Himantura fai collected from Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. It is distinguished from other species in the genus by the morphology of the sclerotised male copulatory organ which is curved and tapered distally, the ovary which loops once before entering the oviduct, and the testis which has 3 posteriorly-directed lobes. The oncomiracidium of this species is also described. The homology between glands found in the oncomiracidium and the adult is discussed. Additional data based on the examination of type material and, in some cases, new material of previously described species are included. The genus is revised and a key to species is provided. Characters which unite the members of the genus could not be confirmed for Heterocotyle elliptica Pillai and Pillai, 1976 and H. robusta (Johnston and Tiegs, 1922) Price, 1938 and therefore we consider them species inquirendae. New host and locality records are presented for H. chinensis Timofeeva, 1983 and a new host record is presented for H. granulatae Young, 1967. Host-specificity and phylogenetic relationships in Heterocotyle are discussed

Предмет исследования: структура и качество социальных услуг для получателей социальных услуг, проживающих в сельской местности. Целью магистерской диссертации является выявление уровня удовлетворенности получателей социальных услуг, проживающих в сельской местности (на примере ГАУСО СО «КЦСОН Пригородного района»). В процессе работы проведен анализ научной литературы и нормативно-правовой базы в сфере социального партнерства в социальной сфере, проведено социологическое исследование, которое выделило структуру социальных проблем получателей социальных услуг, усовершенствована модель социального партнерства в интересах получателей социальных услуг, проживающих в сельской местности. В социологическом исследовании приняло участие 200 получателей социальных услуг, проживающих в сельской местности – подопечные ГАУСО СО «КЦСОН Пригородного района». В результате исследования было выявлено, что среди главных сложностей, с которыми сталкиваются получатели социальных услуг, проживающие в сельской местности, являются доступность медицинского обслуживания, возможности для приобретения новых умений и навыков, возможности для организации досуга. Для решения данной проблемы нами усовершенствована модель социального партнерства в интересах получателей социальных услуг, проживающих в сельской местности, после апробации которой проведено повторное анкетирование, которое доказало действенность данной модели.The subject of the study are recipients of social services living in rural areas. The subject of the study: the structure and quality of social services for recipients of social services living in rural areas. The purpose of the master's thesis is to identify the level of satisfaction of recipients of social services living in rural areas (on the example of GAUSO SO "KCSON Prigorodny District"). In the process, an analysis of scientific literature and the regulatory framework in the field of social partnership in the social sphere was carried out, a sociological study was carried out, which highlighted the structure of social problems of recipients of social services, and the model of social partnership was improved for the benefit of recipients of social services living in rural areas. The sociological study was attended by 200 recipients of social services living in rural areas - wards of GAUSO SO "KCSON Prigorodny District." As a result of the study, it was revealed that among the main difficulties faced by recipients of social services living in rural areas are the availability of medical care, opportunities for acquiring new skills and skills, and opportunities for organizing leisure activities. To solve this problem, we have improved the model of social partnership for the benefit of recipients of social services living in rural areas, after testing of which a repeated survey was carried out, which proved the effectiveness of this model

    We report herein the synthesis and characterization of 9-(2- diallylaminoethyl) adenine. We evaluated two different synthetic routes starting with adenine where the optimal route was achieved through coupling of 9-(2-chloroethyl)adenine with diallylamine. The cyclopolymerization and cyclo-copolymerization of 9-(2-diallylaminoethyl)adenine hydrochloride salt resulted in low molecular weight oligomers in low yields. In contrast, 9-(2-diallylaminoethyl)adenine failed to cyclopolymerize, however, it formed a copolymer with SO 2 in relatively good yields. The molecular weights of the cyclopolymers were around 1,700-6,000 g-mol, as estimated by SEC. The cyclo-copolymer was stable up to 226 °C. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of a free-radical cyclo-copolymerization of a neutral alkyldiallylamine derivative with SO 2. These polymers represent a novel class of carbocyclic polynucleotides. © 2012 by the authors.Agrawal S, 1999, BBA-GENE STRUCT EXPR, V1489, P53, DOI 10.1016-S0167-4781(99)00141-4; Ai H, 2002, BIOMACROMOLECULES, V3, P560, DOI 10.1021-bm015659r; AKASHI M, 1977, MAKROMOL CHEM, V178, P353; Ali SA, 1998, J APPL POLYM SCI, V69, P1329, DOI 10.1002-(SICI)1097-4628(19980815)69:71329::AID-APP73.0.CO;2-G; Ali SA, 2001, POLYMER, V42, P2785, DOI 10.1016-S0032-3861(00)00665-0; Al-Muallem HA, 2002, POLYMER, V43, P4285, DOI 10.1016-S0032-3861(02)00251-3; Armentrout RS, 2000, MACROMOLECULES, V33, P2944, DOI 10.1021-ma991531e; BUTLER GB, 1982, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V15, P370, DOI 10.1021-ar00083a005; Chen JC, 2003, J APPL POLYM SCI, V90, P1662, DOI 10.1002-app.12834; Gorbunova M, 2009, POLYM ADVAN TECHNOL, V20, P209, DOI 10.1002-pat.1253; Gorbunova M, 2009, INT J POLYM ANAL CH, V14, P575, DOI 10.1080-10236660903225445; Han MJ, 2000, ADV POLYM SCI, V153, P1; HARADA S, 1966, MAKROMOLEKUL CHEM, V90, P177; LITT M, 1960, J POLYM SCI, V45, P379, DOI 10.1002-pol.1960.1204514608; Miller KJ, 1998, PHARM SCI TECHNOL TO, V1, P377, DOI 10.1016-S1461-5347(98)00098-4; Hamma T, 1999, BIOCHEMISTRY-US, V38, P15333, DOI 10.1021-bi991962p; MILLIGAN JF, 1993, J MED CHEM, V36, P1923, DOI 10.1021-jm00066a001; Odian G, 2004, PRINCIPLES POLYM, P144; OTTENBRITE RM, 1980, IND ENG CHEM PROD RD, V19, P528, DOI 10.1021-i360076a009; Pei RJ, 2001, BIOMACROMOLECULES, V2, P463, DOI 10.1021-bm0001289; PITHA J, 1968, J ORG CHEM, V33, P1341, DOI 10.1021-jo01268a006; Rullens F, 2006, CHEM MATER, V18, P3078, DOI 10.1021-cm060209x; Sawada H, 1997, J FLUORINE CHEM, V84, P141, DOI 10.1016-S0022-1139(97)00050-X; Schuller W.H., 1959, J CHEM ENG DATA, V4, P273, DOI 10.1021-je60003a021; Shatila RS, 2006, TETRAHEDRON LETT, V47, P1767, DOI 10.1016-j.tetlet.2006.01.035; SOLOMON DH, 1976, J MACROMOL SCI R M C, VC 15, P143; Timofeeva L.M., 2005, POLYM SCI SER A, V47, P273; Timofeeva LM, 2006, DOKL PHYS CHEM, V406, P53, DOI 10.1134-S0012501606020072; Timofeeva LM, 2009, BIOMACROMOLECULES, V10, P2976, DOI 10.1021-bm900435v; Tsai JY, 2003, J ORG CHEM, V68, P1235, DOI 10.1021-jo026379k; Tuzun NS, 2007, INT J QUANTUM CHEM, V107, P894, DOI 10.1002-qua.21227; Tuzun NS, 2003, J ORG CHEM, V68, P6369, DOI 10.1021-jo034033j; UEDA N, 1968, MAKROMOL CHEM, V120, P13; UHLMANN E, 1990, CHEM REV, V90, P543, DOI 10.1021-cr00102a001; Ustyuzhanin G.E., 1978, CHEM HETEROCYCL COMP, V14, P562, DOI 10.1007-BF00673345; Vasilieva YA, 2000, RUSS CHEM B+, V49, P431, DOI 10.1007-BF02494771; Vivekanandam TS, 2005, J APPL POLYM SCI, V98, P1548, DOI 10.1002-app.22073; Vivekanandam TS, 2000, EUR POLYM J, V36, P385, DOI 10.1016-S0014-3057(99)00071-3; Wang GJ, 1998, J PHYS ORG CHEM, V11, P305, DOI 10.1002-(SICI)1099-1395(199805)11:5305::AID-POC83.0.CO;2-K; Weber W, 2004, J BIOTECHNOL, V114, P315, DOI 10.1016-j.jbiotec.2004.07.014; Zhou JL, 1997, SYNTHETIC COMMUN, V27, P3591, DOI 10.1080-003979197080070810
