Role of interregional cooperative relations of russian constituent entities in strengthening the common economic space

The article considers the role and place of interregional cooperative relations in strengthening the common economic space of the country. The authors give a structural and territorial analysis of the interregional trade and economic relations of one of the most economically developed constituent entities of the Russian Federation - Republic of Tatarstan. Based on this analysis, the trends were identified relating to the change in the interregional cooperative relations and regional specialization industry of Tatarstan; a conclusion is also formulated about formation of three types of interregional cooperation. As a result of the study, the authors conclude that for the modern Russia a threat to collapse of the common economic space of the state remains a very serious problem that requires an immediate solution. According to the authors, a tool to solve this problem is to develop cooperation between the country's regions, preventing the isolation of the constituent entities and promoting the strengthening of the domestic market and formation of the common economic space. Furthermore, for the effective development of interregional cooperative relations such cooperation should be built up through specialization of any constituent entity of the Russian Federation. However, in conditions of economic instability and implementation of the import substitution policy, this form of bilateral cooperation is more promising compared to the foreign economic relations. This is due to the fact that the Republic cooperates with other constituent entities through high-tech products of the automotive, petrochemical and metal processing industries. And its foreign economic relations have a raw-material orientation, because Tatarstan finished (final) products are insufficiently competitive in the foreign markets. In order to analyze the stated problems, the article used the method of scientific abstraction, statistical methods for economic and comparative analysis, and graphic modeling

The intensification of the study of economic disciplines in the context of strengthening the influence of education on the social and economic developmentof the region

The transition to the information society, to the economy based on knowledge, makes new demands for work abilities of the individual, and therefore, issues different challenges in the sphere of education, employment of the rising generation. New specific requirements for the level of knowledge and skills are generated by the educational component. In modern conditions of the development of society characterized by the use of modern information technologies, the introduction of innovations in different sectors of the economy, the quality of human capital is a determining factor of economic growth. For this purpose, it is important for the employee, regardless of specialization and activity profile, to possess certain competencies, knowledge and skills, including ones in the economic sphere. The employers are interested in the specialists who are able within cooperation with market interaction to effectively collaborate, commercialize new technical ideas, creating new standards of consumption. The formation of the education market taking place, the preparation and adoption of adequate market system of economic management of solutions, including the field of higher education, also require the scientific and methodological definition in the context of strengthening the influence of education on the economic and social development. To analyze the problems stated in the article, the method of scientific abstraction, the statistical methods for economic and comparative analysis were used

Current trends of meat market development in the republic of Tatarstan

The article reveals the basic sector-wide problems of meat industry in the Republic of Tatarstan, related to the insufficient productive capacity use as well as to inefficient cost structure in terms of fixed and variable costs ratio. As evidenced by the conducted analysis the operation of most meat-processing enterprises of Tatarstan Republic is instable and the proposed strategic development programs lack sufficient justification. This carries inference that the system of business processes management is inefficient. Sector-wide indicators of prime cost, sales and output profitability prove the consistent decline in efficiency of meat-processing plants in the Tatarstan Republic

ТЕПЛОВИЗОР КАК ДИАГНОСТИЧЕСКИЙ ПРИБОР, ОБЕСПЕЧИВАЮЩИЙ САМОКОНТРОЛЬ МОЛОЧНЫХ ЖЕЛЕЗ В БЫТОВЫХ УСЛОВИЯХ

The most effective method of early diagnosis of tumors of mammary glands is selfcontrol. To develop practical recommendations for self-monitoring of the breast in everyday life the study included the analysis of scientific and patent literature, original technical solutions, with an assessment of their strengths and weaknesses. It is shown that for selfcontrol of the breast in everyday life the most suitable way is to monitor the color range of the infrared image of the breast using a thermal imager during and after air blowing air with a hair dryer in a room temperature. Principle of the method is based on the fact that tumors violate uniformity of structure of tissues, their thermal conductivity and/or heat. For examples the study reviewed clinical cases of self-control of the mammary glands in patients with breast tumor and without cancer. Identified steadiness of change in local temperature and color images of breast tissue allows to confirm the absence of lesions and the presence of a zone of unevenness and asymmetry of the local temperature and color images to diagnose a modified thermal conductivity or heat tissue glands and assume the presence of neoplasm in its projection. Thus, for domestic self-control of mammary glands it is advised to monitor the colour range of infrared thermal images on the screen during and after air blowing. When it is assumed that monocolor gland is indicative of the homogeneity of its structure, and multi-colored image of the gland suggests the presence of tumors. Наиболее эффективным методом ранней диагностики новообразований молочных желез является самоконтроль. Для разработки практических рекомендаций самоконтроля молочных желез в быту проведен анализ научной и патентной литературы, оригинальных технических решений с оценкой их преимуществ и недостатков. Показано, что для самоконтроля молочных желез в быту наиболее пригоден способ, сущностью которого является мониторинг цветовой гаммы инфракрасного изображения молочных желез с помощью тепловизора во время и после их обдувания воздухом комнатной температуры бытовым феном. Принцип метода основан на том, что новообразования нарушают однородность структуры тканей, их теплопроводность и/или теплопродукцию. В качестве примеров рассмотрены клинические случаи самоконтроля молочных желез пациенток с новообразованием молочной железы и без онкологической патологии. Выявляемая равномерность смены локальной температуры и цветового изображения тканей молочной железы позволяет заключить об отсутствии новообразований, а наличие зоны неравномерности и асимметрии локальной температуры и цветового изображения позволяет диагностировать измененную теплопроводность или теплопродукцию ткани железы и предположить наличие новообразования в области ее проекции. Таким образом, для бытового самоконтроля молочных желез предлагается осуществлять мониторинг цветовой гаммы их инфракрасного изображения на экране тепловизора во время и после обдувания воздухом. При этом исходят из того, что одноцветное изображение железы свидетельствует об однородности ее структуры, а разноцветное изображение железы позволяет предположить о наличии в ней новообразования.
