    Information culture of the mass

    Get PDF
    The significance of the research is determined by the necessity to improve the quality of information culture of the modern society. In this context, the article refers to the "mass" or "the mass person" that has a certain way of thinking and life style which begin dominating under certain conditions. "The mass person" represents a historically arisen and historically passing phenomenon generated by a certain stage of the development of technology. The research is focused upon a brief outline of philosophical and historical stages which have led to the emergence of the “mass person” who strives only for the benefit and achievement of the personal purposes. He obediently accepts ready-made stamps and stereotypes, without caring for their validity. As a result, despite all the talks of individualization, the original identity is lost and replaced with the average, mass person who is going down the stream, turning into a slave of sociality that once again convinces us that "the mass person" is now a phenomenon which arises quite suddenly, but as a result of those substitutions about which we have spoken above. It is that norm which is characteristic of the society constructed on the ideas of pragmatism and usefulness.peer-reviewe

    8 páginas, 1 tabla, 1 figuraA survey of mycoviruses was made in a collection of 103 isolates belonging to 53 different species of endophytic fungi of grasses. DsRNA elements were detected in isolates of 12 of the species analyzed. The banding characteristics and sizes of some of the dsRNA elements suggest that they might belong to previously described mycovirus families. The observed incidence (22.6%) indicates that the presence of mycoviruses could be common among species of this group of ubiquitous fungi.This research was financed by project AGL2005-02839 granted by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Education. We thank Drs. Robert Coutts and Beatríz R. Vázquez de Aldana for reviewing the manuscript.Peer reviewe

    The paper considers the results of an electron microscopy study of the VD1 alloy of the Al-Cu-Mg system after cold working and subsequent irradiation with a powerful pulsed ion beam (70% C[+] + 30% H[+], Е=180 keV) in the pulsed-periodic mode ([tau] = 80 ns, f = 0.1 Hz, j = 200 A/cm{2}, F = 1·10{14} cm{-2}) and under the conditions of the generation of only one pulse ([tau] = 180 ns, j = 100 A/cm{2}, F = 2·10{15} cm{-2}). It is established that this irradiation noticeably affects the microstructure of the cold-worked 3 mm thick sheets of VD1 alloy. The initial cellular dislocation structure transforms into a subgrain one. The intensity of structural transformations in the alloy increases with ion current density of a pulse. A similar transformation of a dislocation structure over the entire thickness of the sample is observed under irradiation with continuous Ar{+} ion beams (Е = 20-40 keV) with not high fluences (10{15}-10{16} cm{-2})

    Phenosanic acid prevents convulsions, reduces the frequency of epileptic seizures, and improves cognitive, intellectual and mnestic functions in patients with epilepsy. Therefore, phenosanic acid-based medicinal products are promising candidates for inclusion in combination antiepileptic therapy. In order to combine medicinal products rationally and ensure that the therapy is safe, it is useful to study the pharmacokinetic interaction of medicinal products planned for clinical co-administration.The aim of the study was to examine single-dose pharmacokinetic interactions between Dibufelon® 200 mg capsules (PIQ-PHARMA LLC, Russia) and two medicinal products planned for clinical co-application with it, namely, valproic acid and carbamazepine, in sexually mature dogs.Materials and methods: the study included medicinal products of phenosanic acid (Dibufelon® 200 mg capsules by PIQ-PHARMA LLC, Russia), valproic acid (300 mg prolonged-release film-coated tablets), and carbamazepine (200 mg tablets). The medicinal products were administered to beagle dogs (2 groups of 9 males each) as a single oral dose separately and in the following combinations: phenosanic acid with valproic acid and phenosanic acid with carbamazepine. Dose selection involved adjusting maximum human therapeutic doses using interspecies conversion factors. Phenosanic acid was administered at a dose of 24 mg/kg; valproic acid and carbamazepine were administered at a dose of 60 mg/kg. Blood sampling took place at baseline and in 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 24 h after dosing. Plasma concentrations of active substances were determined by HPLC-UV. Pharmacokinetic interactions were evaluated by changes in the main pharmacokinetic parameters (Сmax, Тmax, AUC0-24, MRT, Т1/2).Results: the study demonstrated rapid gastrointestinal absorption and prolonged systemic circulation of phenosanic acid administered separately (Tmax 2–4 h, T1/2 13–28 h) and combined with valproic acid (Tmax 2 h, T1/2 22 h). When administered with carbamazepine, phenosanic acid was eliminated from the systemic blood flow faster (T1/2 7.4 h).Conclusions: co-administration of phenosanic acid and valproic acid medicinal products had no significant effect on their respective pharmacokinetics. Whereas, the combination of phenosanic acid and carbamazepine demonstrated a significant decrease in the Tmax values of phenosanic acid and the MRT values of carbamazepine. The pharmacokinetic changes suggestive of a possible interaction between phenosanic acid and carbamazepine need further clinical investigation

    Background. The use of modern induction chemotherapy programs for primary Hodgkin’s lymphoma allows achievement of high long-term outcomes even in patients with initially poor prognosis. However, the toxicity of treatment is quite high. Despite the effectiveness of chemotherapy, the frequency of relapses and resistant forms varies from 20 to 30 %. In extremely rare cases, the use of intensive chemotherapy regimens, including high-dose chemotherapy, leads to long-term remissions.Description of the clinical case. We present a case of advanced-stage Hodgkin’s lymphoma in a young patient with symptoms of intoxication and adverse risk factors, such as: massive lesion in the mediastinum, increased ES R, infiltration of soft tissues, pleura, pericardium, multiple lesions of both lungs, damage to more than 3 areas of the lymphatic collectors. Given all these factors, the disease prognosis was extremely unfavorable, with a low probability of achieving remission and a high risk of early progression. The use of the intensive EACOPP -14 program allowed the achievement of short-term partial remission. Due to poor treatment tolerance, but taking into account the achievement of a partial response, further treatment was continued using the ABVD chemotherapy regimen. Follow-up examination revealed disease progression. Further courses of chemotherapy using various combinations of chemotherapy drugs resulted in a short-term positive effect with subsequent disease progression. Considering the fact that the disease was resistant to most basic chemotherapeutic agents, immunotherapy with nivolumab (PD -1 inhibitor) was administered. This alternative treatment method allowed the disease to be stabilized.Conclusion. The use of the immunological drug in a patient with chemoresistant Hodgkin’s lymphoma made it possible to stop the progression of the disease and to improve the patient’s quality of life, without significant infectious complications and adverse events.Актуальность. Использование современных программ индукционной химиотерапии при первичной лимфоме Ходжкина позволяет достичь высоких долгосрочных результатов даже у пациентов с исходно неблагоприятным прогнозом. При этом токсичность лечения достаточно высока. Несмотря на эффективность химиотерапии, частота рецидивов и  резистентных форм варьирует от 20 до 30 %. Достижение длительных ремиссий заболевания у части этих пациентов даже с помощью интенсивных режимов химиотерапии, включая высокодозную химиотерапию, крайне затруднительно. Описание клинического случая. Представлен опыт лечения лимфомы Ходжкина у молодой пациентки с распространенной стадией заболевания. В дебюте заболевания определялись симптомы интоксикации и неблагоприятные факторы риска: массивное  образование в средостении, повышенное СОЭ, инфильтрация мягких тканей, плевры, перикарда, множественное поражение обоих легких, поражение более 3 областей лимфатических коллекторов. С учетом всех данных прогноз заболевания был  крайне неблагоприятным с низкой вероятностью достижения ремиссии и высоким  риском раннего прогрессирования. Использование индукционной химиотерапии по интенсифицированной программе «eacopp-14» позволило достичь кратковременной частичной ремиссии. В связи с крайне тяжелой переносимостью лечения и в то же  время с учетом достижения частичного эффекта лечение было продолжено по схеме «aBVd». При очередном промежуточном обследовании констатировано  прогрессирование заболевания. В дальнейшем пациентке суммарно проведено множество курсов химиотерапии с использованием различных сочетаний  химиопрепаратов с кратковременным положительным эффектом и последующим прогрессированием заболевания. Принимая во внимание резистентное к большинству базисных химиопрепаратов течение заболевания, в качестве  альтернативного метода использована иммунотерапия ингибитором pd-1 ниволумабом, которая позволила стабилизировать заболевание.Заключение. Применение лекарственного препарата иммунологической  направленности у пациентки с химиорезистентным течением лимфомы Ходжкина позволило остановить прогрессирование заболевания, улучшить качество жизни  больной без значимых инфекционных осложнений и нежелательных явлений, связанных с применением препарата
