The world of national emigration in Rasul Gamzatov’s works

The creativity of the outstanding poet of the present Rasul Gamzatov is the unique phenomenon which contains completeness of poetic and philosophical comprehension of the world and national peculiarities of his people. From this point of view it would be interesting to consider the problem of the philosophical concept of perception by Rasul Gamzatov of such a complex and ambiguous phenomenon as national emigration, its nature and psychology, to reveal the features of artistic interpretation of this problem

FEATURES OF STRESSES AT THE APEX OF AN ELASTIC WEDGE, SUPPORTED BY A THIN FLEXIBLE COATING ON THE SIDES

Objectives To study the problem of determining the degree of stress at the apex of a wedge-shaped area in cases where the sides (or one of them) are covered with a thin flexible coating.Method It is assumed that the coating is not stretchable. On the other side of the wedge-shaped area, the same coating is assumed to be present; it is either fixed, stress-free or in smooth contact with a rigid base. Mathematically, the problem is reduced to the task of determining the roots of characteristic transcendental equations arising from the existence of a nontrivial solution to the system of linear homogeneous equations.Results Values for the specific characteristics of the radial component of a stress tensor are determined for different combinations of boundary conditions and solution angles. In particular, the angles at which the singular behaviour of stresses occurs are determined. The case is considered when a special boundary condition is given on the edge surface, simulating the overlay. Characteristic equations are obtained to determine the index of the degree dependency of the asymptotic solution in its vicinity for four variants of boundary conditions. In two cases, transcendental equations are obtained, which are solved numerically.Conclusion Calculations of the first positive roots of the equations depending on the angle of the edge solution and Poisson's ratio are presented. The values of the angles, at which the singular behaviour of stresses occurs, are determined. In the case of a combination of boundary conditions (III – IV), the singular stress behaviour is observed for the angle ???? = ????/8, while in the case of (III – III) this value is equal to ????/4

Нормотермическая аутоперфузия сердечно‑легочного комплекса ex vivo: оценка функционального статуса и метаболизма

Objective: to carry out a comparative study of the efficacy of a 6-hour normothermic ex vivo heart and lung autoperfusion and cold cardioplegia using Bretschneider’s solution (Custodiol®, Germany).Materials and methods. Landrace pigs weighing 50 ± 5 kg at the age of 4–5 months (n = 10) were used as a model for a series of acute experiments. In the experimental group (n = 5), the cardiopulmonary complex was conditioned by autoperfusion for 6 hours. In the control group, the heart pumping function was restored after 6-hour cold cardioplegia using Bretschneider’s solution. The efficiency of graft preservation was assessed by measuring hemodynamic parameters, myocardial contractile function, and myocardial oxygen consumption.Results. After reperfusion and repeated isolation of the working cardiopulmonary complex, cardiac output was 0.63 [0.37; 0.8] L/min and 0.37 [0.23; 0.37] L/min in the experimental and control groups, respectively (p < 0.05). Indicators – global left ventricular stroke work index and preload recruitable stroke work – were significantly higher in the experimental group (p < 0.05).Conclusion. Normothermic autoperfusion is significantly more effective in preserving the morphofunctional status of a donor heart than static cold storage with Bretschneider solution for 6 hours.Цель: провести сравнительное исследование эффективности 6-часовой нормотермической аутоперфузии сердечного трансплантата ex vivo и фармакохолодовой консервации раствором Bretschneider (Custodiol®, Германия).Материалы и методы. В качестве модели для проведения серии острых экспериментов были использованы свиньи породы ландрас весом 50 ± 5 кг в возрасте 4–5 месяцев (n = 10). В экспериментальной группе (n = 5) кондиционирование сердечно-легочного комплекса проводили методом аутоперфузии в течение 6 часов. В контрольной группе восстановление насосной функции сердца выполняли после 6-часовой фармакохолодовой консервации раствором Bretschneider. Оценку эффективности консервации трансплантата проводили путем измерения параметров гемодинамики, сократительной функции миокарда, потребления миокардом кислорода.Результаты. После реперфузии и повторной изоляции работающего сердечно-легочного комплекса сердечный выброс составил 0,63 [0,37; 0,8] л/мин и 0,37 [0,23; 0,37] л/мин в экспериментальной и контрольной группах соответственно (р < 0,05). Показатели – глобальная ударная работа левого желудочка и рекрутируемая преднагрузкой ударная работа сердца – были значительно выше в экспериментальной группе (р < 0,05).Заключение. В ходе проведенного исследования было показано значительное преимущество нормотермической аутоперфузии в сохранении морфофункционального статуса донорского сердца по сравнению со статической фармакохолодовой консервацией раствором Bretschneider в течение 6 часов
