Раневые покрытия и синдром диабетической стопы

Materials and Methods. There was proposed an original algorithm for a comprehensive assessment of the wound process and methods of using modern wound coatings. It was based on the results of examination and treatment of 102 patients with purulent-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome (DFS), who were treated at the clinic of General surgery of the Military medical Academy from 2015 to 2017.Results. The data obtained after planimetric, bacteriological and cytological research fully confirm the effectiveness of modern wound coatings.Conclusion. The suggested algorithm provides an objective assessment of wound process, also demonstrates its dynamics, allows to compare different methods of local treatment, as well as to adjust the treatment regimen of patients with purulent-necrotic complications of DFS.Материалы и методы. На основе результатов обследования и лечения 102 пациентов с гнойно-некротическими осложнениями синдрома диабетической стопы (СДС), находившихся на лечении в клинике общей хирургии Военно-медицинской академии с 2015 по 2017 год, с целью улучшения результатов лечения был предложен оригинальный алгоритм комплексной оценки течения раневого процесса и методики применения современных раневых покрытий.Результаты. Полученные в результате планиметрических, бактериологических и цитологических методов исследования данные полностью подтверждают эффективность современных раневых покрытий.Заключение. Предложенный алгоритм обеспечивает объективизацию оценки раневого процесса, демонстрирует его динамику, позволяет сравнить различные методы местного лечения, а также корректировать схему ведения пациентов с гнойно-некротическими осложнениями СДС

Social work and gender::An argument for practical accounts

This article contributes to the debate on gender and social work by examining dominant approaches within the field. Anti-discriminatory, woman-centered and intersectional accounts are critiqued for reliance upon both reification and isolation of gender. Via examination of poststructural, queer and trans theories within social work, the author then presents accounts based upon structural/materialist, ethnomethodological and discursive theories, in order to open up debates about conceptualization of gender. These are used to suggest that social work should adopt a focus on gender as a practical accomplishment that occurs within various settings or contexts

Queering Virtual Reality: A Prolegomenon

In this chapter, we investigate how innovations in STEM, such as Virtual Reality (VR) and 3D Sculpting, can support the development of critical literacies about gender and sexuality. Our work arises from the concern that the assumed \naturalness" of male/female binary categories in biol- ogy is often at the center of the queer, trans, and intersex panics in public education. Echoing sociologists and critical scholars of gender and sexu- ality, we posit that transgender and queer identities should be positioned as realms of playful, active inquiry. Further, we investigate how new forms of computational representational infrastructures can be leveraged to support productive and playful experiences of inquiry about gender and sexuality. We present a retrospective analysis of a design group meeting of a small group of friends in their early thirties with gender nonconforming and queer identities and life histories. The group interacted in VR-based environments, where they engaged in two di erent forms of construction- ist learning experiences: creating 3D sculptures of personally meaningful objects, and re-creating their VR avatars in VR social media. Our analysis illustrates how such experiences can be productively analyzed using so- cial constructivist perspectives that situate knowing as boundary play and gured worlds, and the roles that play and friendship have in supporting deep and critical engagement with complex narratives and marginalize

Gendering Violence: theorising the links between men, masculinities and violence

When gender analyses are used in government violence prevention discourses, the focus is primarily upon women as victims, sometimes with an acknowledgement that most of the perpetrators are male. Many violence prevention advocates maintain that men’s violence against women is substantially different to men’s violence against men, on the basis that most violence against women occurs in the home, while most violence against men occurs in public settings. They also suggest that while the patterns and dynamics of men’s violence against women are gendered, men’s violence against men is not gendered. The main argument of this chapter is that men’s violence against women can best be understood in the context of men’s other violences, including men’s gendered violence against other men. The implication of the interrelatedness of different forms of men’s violence is that strategies to address one form of men’s violence need to address other forms of men’s violence. Consequently, we cannot eliminate men’s violence against women without also understanding and addressing the other violences of men in patriarchy
