Changes of the functional activity of the thyroid gland when exposed to pulsed electromagnetic fields and iodine baths in the prevention of experimental silicosis

In the Ural Federal University has long used a variety of methods of remote supply, fixing and testing material. Based on a university computer technology implemented UrFU teachers develop electronic products: network courses, electronic educational-methodical complexes. By itself the development of electronic resources requires the right skills and effort, but if you have a goal to achieve the best result of teaching, in the implementation of training is also very important to correctly organize quality control trainingВ УГТУ-УПИ, а теперь и в УрФУ, давно используются различные способы дистанционной подачи, закрепления и проверки материала. На основе реализуемых ВУЗом компьютерных технологий преподаватели УрФУ разрабатывают электронные продукты: сетевые курсы, электронные учебно-методические комплексы и т. п. Сама по себе разработка электронного ресурса уже требует нужной квалификации и усилий, однако, если есть цель добиться лучшего результата преподавания, при реализации обучения очень важно также грамотно организовать контроль качества обучени

The score-rating system of the assessment of an educational activity of students: the experience of the Ural Federal University and Russian State Vocational Pedagogical University

In Russia the score-rating system evaluation introduced gradually. But the implementation process is reduced to the modernization of the monitoring and general account of a learning. The analysis of the experience of the Ural Federal University and Russian State Vocational Pedagogical University revealed the existence of shortcomings in this system. Namely: misunderstanding objectives, technical and methodological shortcomings. Also some significant differences revealed in the methods of the implementation of the BRC fnd RSK in different universities, what is contrary to its overall objectives. An exchange of an experience can help performers of different levels to take into these problems in themselves workВ России постепенно внедряется балльно-рейтинговая система оценивания. Несмотря на масштабные цели, процесс внедрения сводится к модернизации текущего контроля и общего учета успеваемости. Анализ опыта работы Уральского федерального университета и Российского государственного профессионально-педагогического университета в рамках данной системы выявил наличие недоработок, снижающих эффективность ее применения. А именно: непонимание целей, технические и методические недочеты. Выявлены, кроме того, существенные различия в способах реализации БРС и РСК в разных университетах, что противоречит ее общим целям. Обмен опытом работы может помочь исполнителям разного уровня учесть и устранить недоработк

THE STUDY OF THE PECULIARITIES OF INFORMATION PERCEPTION BY STUDENTS IN THE CONTEXT OF DIGITALIZATION OF EDUCATION

The article identifies the problem of perceptual changes in computerized training. Changes in attention when learning through computer and print sources of information are investigated. The experiment showed, the efficiency of learning and storing information when receiving it from an electronic medium are slightly lower than from the printed one. The performance is systematically reduced, while when working with print media, this is not observed.Обозначена проблема концентрации внимания при компьютеризированном обучении. Исследованы изменения внимания при обучении с помощью компьютерного и печатного источников информации. Показано, что эффективность усвоения и запоминание информации при получении ее с электронного носителя оказываются несколько ниже, чем с печатного, а также что работоспособность планомерно снижается, в то время как при работе с печатными носителями подобного не наблюдается

Lipid profile in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 depending on the outcome of its acute phase: data from the international registry "Dynamics analysis of comorbidities in SARS-CoV-2 infection survivors"

Aim. To study the lipid profile in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) depending on the outcome of its acute phase according to the AKTIV international registry.Material and methods. The AKTIV registry included men and women over 18 years of age with a diagnosis of COVID-19, who were treated in a hospital. A total of 9364 patients were included in the registry, of which 623 patients were analyzed for levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and triglycerides on days 1-2 of hospitalization. The level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was calculated using the Friedewald equation.Results. We found that a decrease in LDL-C level was significantly associated with an unfavorable prognosis for hospitalized patients with COVID-19. This pattern persisted in both univariate and multivariate analyses. LDL-C levels in the final multivariate model had a significant relationship with the prognosis (an increase in the death risk by 1,7 times with a decrease per 1 mmol/l). In addition, we found that the survival of patients with an indicator level of <2,45 mmol/l is significantly worse than in patients with an LDL-C level ≥2,45 mmol/l. All patients with high LDL-C ((≥4,9 mmol/l) survived, while among patients with low LDL-C (<2,45 mmol/l. All patients with high LDL-C ((≥4,9 mmol/l) survived, while among patients with low LDL-C (<1,4 mmol/l), mortality was 13,04%, which was significantly higher than in patients with LDL-C ≥1,4 mmol/l (6,32%, p=0,047).Conclusion. A decrease in LDL-C in the acute period is significantly associated with an unfavorable prognosis for hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Determination of LDL-C can be included in the examination program for patients with COVID-19. However, the predictive value of this parameter requires further study in prospective clinical studies

Clinical features of post-COVID period. Results of an International Register "Dynamics Analysis of Comorbidities in SARS-CoV-2 Survivors (ACTIV SARS-CoV-2)" (12-month follow-up)

Aim. To investigate on post-COVID period in patients of the Eurasian region.Material and methods. A total of 9364 consecutively hospitalized patients were included in ACTIV registry. Enrollment of patients began on June 29, 2020, and was completed on March 30, 2021, corresponding to the first and second waves of the pandemic. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data, computed tomography (CT) results, information about inhospital clinical course and complications of COVID-19 during hospitalization were extracted from electronic health records using a standardized data collection form. The design included follow-up telephone interviews with a standard questionnaire at 3, 6, and 12 months to examine the course of post-COVID period.Results. According to ACTIV register, 63% of patients after COVID-19 had new adverse symptoms or exacerbations of the existing symptoms lasting for up to 1 year. After hospital discharge, 79,8% of patients sought unscheduled medical attention in the first 3 months, 79,1% at 4-6 months, and 64,8% at 7-12 months. Readmission rate was 11,8% in the first 3 months, 10,9% at 4-6 months, and 10,1% at 7-12 months. The most common reasons for unscheduled treatment in the first 3 months were uncontrolled hypertension, decompensated type 2 diabetes, destabilization of coronary artery disease, gastrointestinal disease, AF episodes, exacerbation of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, decompensated heart failure (HF). The 12-month mortality of COVID-19 survivors after the discharge was 3,08%. Multivariate analysis showed that independent risk factors for fatal outcome were age (direct correlation), the levels of hemoglobin (inverse correlation), oxygen saturation (inverse correlation), and aspartate aminotransferase (direct correlation), as well as class III-IV HF, prior stroke, cancer, inhospital acute kidney injury. Based on these identified risk factors, a nomogram was constructed to determine the 3-month mortality risk after discharge.Conclusion. Analysis of ACTIV register showed that end of the acute phase of COVID-19 does not imply a complete recovery
