Интерпретационные парадигмы и вектор трансформации ценностных ориентаций российского студенчества

The author considers paradoxical feature in value orientations and students behavior on the basis of socio-economic factors and cultural attitudes of modern society which are revealed in the current education system. Paradox of opposite conclusions from the similar empirical information, ’’centaur-problem” of value orientations (transvalues) is revealed in the eclectic combination of alternative paradigm principles; they are technocratic views and humanistic ones. The paper demonstrates sustainable social factors of student values in Russia. The main tendency of student values transformation has antisocial vector and leads to decreasing of quality of education. i Social and educational practice which forms positive values in Russia should become innovation strategic benchmark in promotion of society.Автор рассматривает парадоксальность в ценностных ориентациях, действиях студенческой молодежи на основе социально-экономических факторов и усваиваемых культурных установок современного общества, находящих отражение в действующей системе образования. Парадокс противоположных выводов из аналогичной эмпирической информации, «кентавр-проблема» ценностных ориентаций (транс-ценностей) выражается в эклектическом сочетании принципов альтернативных парадигм: технократической и гуманистической направленности. По результатам исследования показаны выявленные устойчивые социальные факторы ценностных ориентаций российских студентов. Основное направление трансформации ценностных ориентаций студенческой молодежи имеет асоциальную направленность, ведет к снижению качества образования. Социальная и образовательная практика, формирующая позитивные российские ценности, должна стать инновационным стратегическим ориентиром в оздоровлении общества

Sex difference and intra-operative tidal volume: Insights from the LAS VEGAS study

BACKGROUND: One key element of lung-protective ventilation is the use of a low tidal volume (VT). A sex difference in use of low tidal volume ventilation (LTVV) has been described in critically ill ICU patients.OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine whether a sex difference in use of LTVV also exists in operating room patients, and if present what factors drive this difference.DESIGN, PATIENTS AND SETTING: This is a posthoc analysis of LAS VEGAS, a 1-week worldwide observational study in adults requiring intra-operative ventilation during general anaesthesia for surgery in 146 hospitals in 29 countries.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Women and men were compared with respect to use of LTVV, defined as VT of 8 ml kg-1 or less predicted bodyweight (PBW). A VT was deemed 'default' if the set VT was a round number. A mediation analysis assessed which factors may explain the sex difference in use of LTVV during intra-operative ventilation.RESULTS: This analysis includes 9864 patients, of whom 5425 (55%) were women. A default VT was often set, both in women and men; mode VT was 500 ml. Median [IQR] VT was higher in women than in men (8.6 [7.7 to 9.6] vs. 7.6 [6.8 to 8.4] ml kg-1 PBW, P < 0.001). Compared with men, women were twice as likely not to receive LTVV [68.8 vs. 36.0%; relative risk ratio 2.1 (95% CI 1.9 to 2.1), P < 0.001]. In the mediation analysis, patients' height and actual body weight (ABW) explained 81 and 18% of the sex difference in use of LTVV, respectively; it was not explained by the use of a default VT.CONCLUSION: In this worldwide cohort of patients receiving intra-operative ventilation during general anaesthesia for surgery, women received a higher VT than men during intra-operative ventilation. The risk for a female not to receive LTVV during surgery was double that of males. Height and ABW were the two mediators of the sex difference in use of LTVV.TRIAL REGISTRATION: The study was registered at Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT01601223

Relationship of body mass index and abdominal obesity in rural population of Krasnodarsky kray taken

The aim was to study the relationship of body mass index (BMI) and abdominal obesity with the frequency of comorbid pathology in rural population of Krasnodarsky kray.Materials and methods. The study included 700 rural workers (18 years of age and older) who underwent a preventive medical examination (57,2% of women and 42,8% of men, mean age 49,11±16,57 years).Results. In rural population of Krasnodarsky kray the proportion of the individuals with BMI 25.0–29.9 kg/m2 was 34.7% (statistically more significant in men than in women, р<0.0001), the proportion of the individuals with BMI ≥ 30.0 kg/m2 was 39.7% (statistically more significant in women than in men, р<0.0001). Abdominal obesity was found in 70.1% of individuals (77.3% of women and 60.5% of men, p=0.0001). In the group of patients with increased BMI, abdominal obesity was more common in women than in men (p=0.0001). In the group of patients with BMI ≥ 30.0 kg/m2 abdominal obesity was revealed in 100% of cases. Risk factors for chronic non-infectious diseases such as hypercholesterolemia (26.7%), hyperglycemia (16.4%), and arterial hypertension (26.1%) were statistically more frequent in the individuals with BMI ≥ 30.0 kg/m2 than in those with normal and increased BMI. The diseases that can be enhanced by the presence of abdominal obesity were registered more often in patients with BMI ≥ 30.0 kg/m2 (97.8%) in comparison with patients with elevated BMI (23.5%; р<0,0001) and with normal BMI (4%; р<0,0001).Conclusions. Elevated BMI, abdominal obesity and high frequency of comorbid pathology is prevalent in Krasnodarsky kray

Effect of applied load on welding stress at different time periods

In this study, pressure finite element welding simulations has been carried out. The welding model is a butt filled weld. The objective is to study the effect of pressure on welding stress of high strength steel at different time periods. From the study we can find that no matter at the first half of welding or and the last half welding or at the cooling time apply the load have little effect to improve the stress. Only under the entire welding process that the distribution of residual stress can be greatly improved. The results show that the residual stresses of the welding workpiece under specific pressure throughout the welding process decreased by 16.2% when compared with weld group without load applied. The maximum residual stresses of weld group without load applied are more than with the specific pressure load plates 120 MPa. But under other times putting the load cannot be improved. This paper just presents a simulation results that have a certain guiding significance

Mental hygiene of interpersonal relations of student-managers in a megapolis

The article presents a psychological analysis of the behavior features and interpersonal relations of students-managers in a metropolis. The relevance of the present work is determined by the fact that for young people, higher education is associated with a change in their social status when they move from direct dependence on their parents to independent actions and active life in a big city. The specifics of the urban space of a metropolis have a strong influence on their mental state and understanding of the world around them. The popularity of the manager’s profession among young people entering universities has also contributed to the relevance of the study. Young people set themselves the goal of “learning to manage and lead.” The conditions of the big city impose special requirements on future managers, focusing them on the implementation of adaptive psychological functions. The manager’s ability to conform to social attitudes, to create a pleasant impression for others becomes for him a professionally important quality. As a result, students face a paradoxical situation involving a system of “double standards”. In this regard, they encounter difficulties in social adaptation and the formation of stable interpersonal relationships. To solve this problem, an empirical study was conducted, which allowed determining the values of the main strategies of interpersonal relations based on a comparative analysis of the basic ideas of first-year students. Empirical data were obtained based on the psychological method by L.N. Sobchik “Diagnostics of interpersonal relations” (DIR). The results obtained make it possible to carry out preventive psychohygienic activities with students to form their social adaptability and maintain mental health
