Dynamics of geometry indicators of students' body mass in the process of their physical training under the influence of author's technology

Sublimation of advanced scientific ideas into the strategy of student youth’s rehabilitation involves the creation and implementation of effective innovative technologies. At the present stage of physical culture and sports field development, in terms of effectiveness of body correction the most recognized are health fitness systems. Objective. The experiment involved 121 female students aged 17–18 with different body types, namely mesomorphs – 64, ectomorphs – 35, endomorphs – 22 individuals (n = 121). Methods. Theoretical ones have been used to study and substantiate the basic provisions of the study, outline its problem field, systematize the scientists’ experience on the issue of female students' physique correction in the process of their physical training, study of modern scientific approaches to the development and improvement of physical education; empirical methods included pedagogical observation; anthropometric examination of female students; body type of students – using the Pinier index. Method of recording and analysis of female students’ body static-dynamic stability (diagnostic and training complex “SportKat 650 TS” on the basis of a movable platform, the degree of mobility of which is adjustable); consistently pedagogical transformative experiment; statistical methods have been applied to process the results of the study. Results of the study. The positive impact of the suggested technology is evidenced by changes in the average values of the circumferential body size of female students with mesomorphic body type: increase in the average values of chest girth (; S) (before: 85.3; 5.50 cm after: 88.2; 4.71 cm), (p <0.01); increase in average values of shoulder girth (before: 26.2; 3.81 cm after: 27.7; 2.19 cm), (p <0.01); decrease in the average values of the circumferential abdomen size (before: 68.1; 5.51 cm after: 66.3; 3.32 cm), (p <0.05); decrease in the average values of the thigh girth (before: 55.0; 3.80 cm after: 53.9; 2.00 cm), (p <0.05). Statistically significant changes have been found in the direction of increasing the average values of the shoulder circumferential size among female students of ectomorphic body type: (; S) (before: 23.3; 3.71 cm after: 24.9; 2.21 cm), (p<0.05); average values of the thigh circumferential size (before: 52.1; 4.94 cm after: 53.9; 2.01 cm), (p<0.05). During the examination of female students of endomorphic body type, we have also observed the improvement (decrease) of the average values of the abdomen girth (; S) (before: 75.4; 4.83 cm after: 72.1; 2.95 cm), (p <0.05) and the average values of the hip circumference (before: 58.3; 4.25 cm after: 56.2; 2.19 cm), (p <0.05). Conclusions. The substantiated technology of physique correction for female students taking into account geometry of their body mass in the course of physical training is aimed at achieving the corresponding purpose by using system, normative-target, personality-oriented approaches. The structure of the technology has included the purpose, tasks, principles, pedagogical conditions, stages, namely organizational-introductory, correctional-preventive, supportive

Medicinal Properties of Anchusa strigosa and Its Active Compounds

Anchusa strigosa is a widespread weed in Greece, Syria, Turkey, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, and Iran. The purpose of this study was to identify the phytochemicals of Anchusa strigose and estimate the pro-wound healing (pro-WH) and antimicrobial activities of its active compounds. An identification of volatile compounds was performed by GC/MS analysis; HPLC, LC-ESI-MS, and MALDI-TOF-MS were also applied. Our results demonstrate that two specific combinations of compounds from A. strigosa extract significantly enhanced WH (p < 0.001). Several flavonoids of the plant extract, including quercetin 3-O-rutinoside, kaempferol, kaempferol 3-O-β-rhamnopyranosyl(1→6)-β-glucopyranoside, and kaempferol 3-O-α-rhamnopyranosyl(1→6)-β-galactopyranoside, were effective against drug-resistant microorganisms. In addition, all the above-mentioned compounds had antibiofilm activity against Escherichia coli and Salmonella enteritidis

Effect of Bioactive Phytochemicals from Phlomis viscosa Poiret on Wound Healing

Phlomis viscosa Poiret is an evergreen shrub growing in Israel, Turkey, Lebanon, and Syria with acknowledged pro-wound healing (WH) properties. In this study, we evaluated the pro-WH potential of selected compounds found in this plant. Among the pro-WH compounds (identified by us) was a combination of three chemicals—diosmin, 1-octen-3-ol, and himachala-2,4-diene which enhanced WH significantly both in in vitro and in vivo models. The determined phytochemicals combination could be used for the treatment of chronic wounds. The effect of the extracts, diosmin, 1-octen-3-ol on the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-6 (A) and IL-8 (B) by human dermal fibroblasts was significant (p < 0.001). In addition, the beneficial effect of extracts of P. viscosa and its phytochemicals on WH was evidenced by inhibiting the growth of several WH delaying microorganisms

Antimicrobial and Antiviral Compounds of <i>Phlomis viscosa</i> Poiret

Phlomis viscosa Poiret (an evergreen shrub) represents a valuable source of medicinal compounds. In this study, we discovered compounds with antimicrobial and antiviral properties. The aim of this study was to identify compounds of P. viscosa and estimate the antimicrobial and antiviral activity of its phytochemicals. The volatile compounds were identified using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis. For the identification of nonvolatile components of the extracts, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) were applied. Quercetin 3-O-rutinoside and hesperidin caused a significant decrease in the bacterial concentration of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Xylella fastidiosa and Pseudomonas syringae (p Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Serratia marcescens and Salmonella enteritidis) was inhibited by quercetin 3-O-rutinoside, quercetin 3-O-arabinoside and hesperidin. In addition, these compounds demonstrated antiquorum-sensing properties. Diosmin, hesperidin and quercetin 3-O-arabinoside significantly inhibited varicella zoster virus (VZV) (p O-rutinoside and quercetin 3-O-arabinoside were effective against herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), including mutant strains
