Spiritual and moral foundations of craft profession training

The relevance of the problem under consideration stemmed from the need of revival of craft education system in Russia which focuses on training personnel for small handicraft enterprises, and it is also very important to identify, to preserve and to adapt it to the modern realities of pedagogical experience which was gained by the vocational education system in the past. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the need for development of spiritual, moral, organizational and pedagogical foundations of craft vocational education development in Russia theoretically and methodologically. The central approach to the investigation of this problem is the study and generalization of pedagogical experience which makes it possible to substantiate the tendencies of formation of a new type of vocational education in Russia. The result of the study was the substantiation of the key qualities of a master craftsman as a creative thinker and craft labour as a man-making system of knowledge and practical experience forming “multidimensional human integrity”. The statement that modern craft education should take into account the productive and transforming essence of a person as fully as possible, and thus, it should be acmeologically oriented can be considered the key conclusion. The materials of the article can be useful to practitioners and vocational education scientists, teachers and postgraduate students who are interested in the development of teaching system and personnel training system. © 2018 by the authors

Features of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 synthesis by local fat depots of different localization in cardiovascular diseases

Aim. To determine the features of expression and secretion of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) by subcutaneous, epicardial and perivascular adipocytes depending on the complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD).Material and methods. The study included 86 patients with CAD, including 35 with moderate atherosclerotic lesions of the coronary arteries (CA) (SYNTAX Score ≤22), 22 with severe (SYNTAX Score of 23-31 pints), 29 with extremely severe (SYNTAX Score ≥32). As a comparison group, 52 patients with heart defects were examined. During an elective surgical intervention, adipose tissue (AT) samples were obtained for subsequent cultivation and determination of PAI-1 gene expression and PAI-1 secretion in AT supernatants of various localizations. Statistical analysis was performed using Statistica 10.0.Results. In CAD, PAI-1 production in all three types of AT and plasma PAI-1 concentration were increased compared with patients with heart defects. Epicardial AT (EAT) in CAD was characterized by the maximum levels of expression and secretion of PAI-1 relative to patients with heart defects and subcutaneous and perivascular (PVAT) fat depots. Moderate coronary involvement (adipose tissue <22) is characterized by the lowest expression and secretion of PAI-1 in all types of AT and plasma concentration of PAI-1. Direct correlations of PAI-1 expression and secretion in EAT and PVAT and plasma PAI-1 level with its secretion in EAT in patients with CAD and heart defects were revealed. A direct correlation between the plasma level of PAI-1 and its secretion in PVAT was found only in CAD.Conclusion. In CAD, there is not only an increase in the plasma PAI-1 level, but also an increase in the expression of PAI-1 gene and the secretion of PAI-1 in all three types of AT compared with patients with heart defects. PAI-1 expression and secretion in EAT, PAI-1 plasma level, and age are predictors of severe/extremely severe coronary involvement in CAD

Сопряженный процесс окисления монооксида углерода и гидрокарбоксилирования циклогексена в циклогексанкарбоновую кислоту

The kinetic regularities of the conjugated process of the oxidation of carbon monoxide and the hydrocarboxylation of cyclohexene to cyclohexanecarboxylic acid have been studied. The copper(II) bromide addition allowed to stabilize the system and to increase selectivity due to the suppression of side reactions of the cyclohexene conversion and tetrahydrofuran. To achieve the acceptable rate and the selectivity of the transformation to cyclohexanecarboxylic acid it is advisable to use the palladium bromide concentration of 0.05 mol/L. To study the kinetic regularities the lower concentration of palladium bromide of 0.005 mol/L is required to ensure the system stability and the good reproducibility of results. The state of bromide complexes of palladium and copper under the conditions of conjugated catalytic synthesis of cyclohexanecarboxylic acid by the hydrocarboxylation of cyclohexene was studied by electron and infrared spectroscopy. It was found that during the conjugated process, copper exists in the form of copper(I) compounds, and palladium is present in the form of palladium(II) carbonyl complex. Hypotheses about the mechanism of this process were suggested. 24 two-route mechanisms of the carbon dioxide and the cyclohexanecarboxylic acid synthesis were obtained. Each of the 24 hypotheses spawned from one to three hypothetical mechanisms differing in the reversibility of the stages, the amount and the composition of intermediates accounted for in the material balance for the catalyst.Изучены кинетические закономерности сопряженного процесса окисления монооксида углерода и гидрокарбоксилирования циклогексена в циклогексанкарбоновую кислоту. Методами электрон-ной и инфракрасной спектроскопии исследовано состояние комплексов палладия и меди в системе PdBr2 - CuBr2 - ТГФ - Н2О в процессе синтеза циклогексанкарбоновой кислоты. В условиях сопряженного процесса медь существует в виде соединений Cu(I), палладий присутствует в форме карбонильного комплекса Pd(II). Выдвинуты гипотезы о механизме процесса

Роль полиморфизма в промоторной области гена TNF в развитии хронической обструктивной болезни легких

Association of –308G/A-polymorphism of α-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) gene with the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has been investigated in two populations of Tomsk city (Siberian Tatars and Russians). As a result, it has not been marked any genotype distribution deviation of expected in patient groups as well as in control groups at Hardy-Vainberg equilibrium. Statistically significant difference in allele distribution rate at patients with COPD and in control groups has not been found (p > 0,5) including ethnic groups (Russians and Tatars). Differences in genotype distribution at patients and control group have been found for Tatars due to heterosive carrier (AG) prevalence at patients (p < 0,05). The obtained data allow to conclude the presence of association of –308G/A-polymorphism of TNF gene with the COPD development at Siberian Tatars.Исследована ассоциация полиморфизма –308G/A гена фактора некроза опухолей-α (TNF) с развитием хронической обструктивной болезни легких в двух популяциях г. Томска (сибирские татары и русские). В результате, как в группах больных, так и в группах контроля, не отмечено отклонения распределений генотипов от ожидаемых при равновесии Харди—Вайнберга. Статистически значимых различий в распределении частот аллелей среди больных с ХОБЛ и в контрольных группах получено не было (p > 0,5), в том числе и между этническими группами (русские и татары). Для татар были установлены различия в распределении генотипов между больными и контрольной группой за счет преобладания гетерозитных носителей (AG) у больных (p < 0,05). Полученные данные позволяют сделать заключение о наличии ассоциации полиморфизма –308G/A гена TNF с развитием ХОБЛ у сибирских татар

Constraints on the χ_(c1) versus χ_(c2) polarizations in proton-proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV

The polarizations of promptly produced χ_(c1) and χ_(c2) mesons are studied using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, in proton-proton collisions at √s=8  TeV. The χ_c states are reconstructed via their radiative decays χ_c → J/ψγ, with the photons being measured through conversions to e⁺e⁻, which allows the two states to be well resolved. The polarizations are measured in the helicity frame, through the analysis of the χ_(c2) to χ_(c1) yield ratio as a function of the polar or azimuthal angle of the positive muon emitted in the J/ψ → μ⁺μ⁻ decay, in three bins of J/ψ transverse momentum. While no differences are seen between the two states in terms of azimuthal decay angle distributions, they are observed to have significantly different polar anisotropies. The measurement favors a scenario where at least one of the two states is strongly polarized along the helicity quantization axis, in agreement with nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics predictions. This is the first measurement of significantly polarized quarkonia produced at high transverse momentum
