The role of the social vocabulary research in the Russian language teaching practice (on the example of zoomorphic nominations Homo Socialis)

The relevance of the investigated problem is stipulated by the necessity to solve a problem of multicultural humanitarian education and formation of tolerance of students to unfamiliar culture. The purpose of the article is to research educational potential of metaphorical vocabulary in different languages, such as zoomorphic naming units of a man in his social roles and functions. The leading approach to the study of this problem is a communicatively oriented approach to training highly qualified specialist, the future teacher of Russian as a foreign language or an interpreter. The study produced the following results: the possibility to use ethno-linguistic study of Russian language results is illustrated; a selection of lexical items and phraseologic- zoomorphism, which nominate people on the social roles and functions - tat teacher can use in the classroom, is presented; the technique of analysis of the vocabulary in which social seme is located in different zones of the word, is presented; the necessity of the use of research results in the practice of teaching in higher school in order to ensure the formation of socio-cultural and communicative competence of students is substantiated. The results can be applied in the organization of educational process in higher educational institutions. The article may be useful to researchers in the field of pedagogy, to teachers, to post-graduate students, to graduate students and students of the following specialties: Russian as a foreign language, Russian language in the practice of interpretation. © 2016 Leontyeva et al

Особенности фенотипического и генотипического липидного статуса коренного этноса Арктики в условиях островного проживания

Introduction. Dyslipidemia and obesity are interdisciplinary and “multi-metabolic” diseases, pathogenetically associated with the development of atherothrombosis, which creates practical health problems. The development of both dyslipidemia and obesity is influenced by socio-demographic, environmental, genetic and many physiological and behavioral factors, while the contribution of genetic factors is 40-70%. The goal is to identify the genetic characteristics oflipid status and fat metabolism in the indigenous ethnic group of the Arctic region of the Russian Federation under conditions of permanent islandliving.Methods. A cross-sectional population study of an indigenous ethnic group (n = 44) living on Vaygach Island (70 ° 01 ' Nlat 59 ° 33 ' E). The reported study was funded by RFBR according to the research project №18-00-00814-(18-00-00478). Serum cholesterol and triglycerides were determined as markers oflipid metabolism in blood serum. To analyze the genetic profile, the polymorphism of the FTO A23525T gene and the LPL Ser447Ter gene was determined by polymerase chain reaction.Results. In the sample of the indigenous ethnic group, BMI was 26.0 [21.5; 29.75] kg/m2. BMI for men is 23.0 [18.0; 28.0] kg/m2, for women - 25.0 [18.0; 29.25] kg / m2. Carriers of the unfavorable allele A had a higher BMI than carriers of the T allele. Analysis of the effect of rs9939609 genetic polymorphism on thelevel of total cholesterol did not show statistically significant differences between the FTO gene genotypes. A minimal triglyceride concentration was observed in carriers of the protective genotype Ter/Ter.Conclusion. Understanding the similarities and differences in genetic susceptibility among different ethnic groups can ultimately contribute to a more focused primary prevention and patient-oriented approach of cardiovascular pathology. Введение. Дислипидемия и ожирение являются междисциплинарными и мультиметаболическими состояниями, патогенетически связаны с развитием атеротромбоза, являясь важной проблемой практического здравоохранения. На развитие как дислипидемии, так и ожирения влияют социально-демографические, экологические, генетические и многие физиологические и поведенческие факторы, при этом вклад генетических факторов составляет 40-70%.Цель - выявить генетические особенности липидного статуса и жирового обмена у коренного этноса арктического региона РФ в условиях постоянного островного проживания. Методы. Проведено поперечное популяционное исследование коренного этноса (п = 44), проживающего на острове Вайгач (70°01' с. ш. 59°33' в. д.) в период комплексной научной экспедиции, выполняемой в рамках финансирования РФФИ гранта №18-00-00814-КОМФИ (18-00-00478). В качестве маркеров липидного обмена в сыворотке крови определяли общий холестерин и триглицериды. Для анализа генетического профиля определяли полиморфизм гена FTO A23525T и гена LPL Ser447Ter методом полимеразной цепной реакции.Результаты. В выборке коренного этноса ИМТ составил 26,0 [21,5; 29,75] кг/м2. ИМТ для мужчин - 23,0 [18,0; 28,0] кг/м2, для женщин - 25,0 [18,0; 29,25] кг/м2. Носители неблагоприятного аллеля А имели более высокий ИМТ, чем носители аллеля Т. Анализ влияния генетического полиморфизма rs9939609 на уровень общего холестерина не показал статистически значимых отличий между генотипами гена FTO. Минимальная концентрация триглицеридов была отмечена у носителей протективного генотипа Ter/Ter.Заключение. Понимание сходства и различий в генетической восприимчивости среди разных этносов может в конечном итоге способствовать более целенаправленной первичной профилактике и пациентоориентированному подходу сердечно-сосудистой патологии

New Online Ecology of Adversarial Aggregates: ISIS and beyond

Support for extremist entities - whether from the far right, or far left - often manages to survive globally online despite significant external pressure, and may ultimately inspire violent acts by individuals having no obvious prior history of extremism. Examining longitudinal records of extremist online activity, we uncovered an ecology evolving on a daily timescale that drives online support, and we provide a mathematical theory that describes it. The ecology features self-organized aggregates (online groups such as on Facebook or another social media analog) that proliferate preceding the onset of recent real-world campaigns, and adopt novel adaptive mechanisms to enhance their survival. One of the predictions is that development of large, potentially potent online groups can be thwarted by targeting smaller ones.Comment: Similar to version that appeared in Science (2016

Mg2+ activation of Escherichia coli inorganic pyrophosphatase

AbstractFurther refinement of X-ray data on Escherichia coli inorganic pyrophosphatase [Oganessyan et al. (1994) FEBS Lett. 348, 301–304] to 2.2 Å reveals a system of noncovalent interactions involving Tyr55 and Tyr141 in the active site. The pKa for one of the eight Tyr residues in wild-type pyrophosphatase is as low as 9.1 and further decreases to 8.1 upon Mg2+ binding, generating characteristic changes in the absorption spectrum. These effects are lost in a Y55F but not in a Y141F variant. It is suggested that the lower-affinity site for Mg2+ in the enzyme is formed by Tyr55 and Asp70, which are in close proximity in the apo-enzyme structure

Viability of causative pathogen in patients with drug-sensitive and drug-resistant forms of respiratory tuberculosis

To predict outcomes of tuberculosis we investigated the viability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in relation to drug resistance of strains and clinical manifestations of tuberculosis. During the study on solid Löwenstein - Jensen medium, we determined the speed, growth rate and drug resistance of MBT in 5945 cultures, isolated from the sputum of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis - residents of the Irkutsk region (2193 -from newly diagnosed patients, 3752 - from previously treated patients). The criterion of high viability of MBT was the growth rate of >100 colonies over 20 days; and low viability corresponded with the growth rate of 30 days. 2171 cultures (36.5 %) had high viability of MBT strains, 3021 (50.8 %) - low, and 753 (12.7 %) cultures had average degree of viability. A high degree of pathogen viability was more often determined in newly diagnosed patients with tuberculosis of intrathoracic lymph nodes (all patients with HIV-infection without antiretroviral therapy), fibrotic-cavernous and infiltrative tuberculosis. Among previously treated patients with tuberculosis the high viability of MBT was often determined in patients with fibrous-cavernous and infiltrative tuberculosis, and caseous pneumonia. Cultures from previously treated patients with tuberculosis of intrathoracic lymph nodes had low degree of viability. The number of drug-sensitive strains was 1992, drug-resistant ones - 3953, including 1430 strains with multidrug resistance. We have found that 37.5 % drug-resistant strains associated with a high degree of viability (multidrug resistance - 38.5 %), it's was more often than the drug-sensitive (35.4 %; p < 0.01)

ПОЛИМОРФИЗМЫ ГЕНА VKORC1 -1639 G/A И 1173 C/Т В ПОПУЛЯЦИИ КОРЕННЫХ ЖИТЕЛЕЙ НЕНЕЦКОГО АВТОНОМНОГО ОКРУГА

According to the data obtained the VKORC1 gene polymorphism prevalence in the native population of the Nenets autonomous region differed significantly from that in the Arkhangelsk population. The homozygous form of 1173T allele prevailed in the nenets. This may be protective against thrombosis but it increases the risk of artery calcification and of indirect overdosing of anticoagulants.По данным исследования, распространенность полиморфизмов гена VKORC1 в популяции коренных жителей Ненецкого автономного округа значительно отличается от таковой у жителей г. Архангельска. У ненцев преобладал аллель 1173Т в гомозиготной форме, что может оказывать протективный эффект по отношению к тромбозам, но повышает риск кальцификации стенок артерий и передозировки непрямыми антикоагулянтами
