Under electromagnetic impact (EMI) of a sufficient level, temporary disruption of functioning, processing, transmission and storage of information in cellular equipment is possible. Possible problems of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of a mobile phone and a base station (BS) of cellular connection under the influence of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from other sources and their negative impact on functioning are considered. The energy of the HF electromagnetic field (EMF) after passing through the protective case can affect the devices of shielded radio electronic equipment (REE), therefore, the possible negative consequences of the impact of high-energy EMF on the REE are described. Possible negative consequences under certain conditions from the influence of the skin-effect, the effects of electrostatic discharge and electromagnetic pulses on electronic devices are given. It is shown that the constructional method of protecting REE from the effects of external electromagnetic factors consists in reducing the collected and transmitted EMF energy by improving the design, placement and installation of equipment. Components of some vendors for 5G systems that are resistant to external interference are given, and the possibilities for reducing the radiation level of a cell phone are noted. The necessity of an integrated approach to solving EMC problems is substantiated, which consists in the use of structural, circuitry and structural-functional methods of EMC provision. The new 5G (Fifth Generation) standard will operate at higher operating frequencies compared to previous generations. Due to the workload of the electromagnetic spectrum at frequencies below 6 GHz, 5G networks will be based on wireless radio access systems operating at frequencies of 30–100 GHz, that is, in the lower band of the extremely high frequency range EHF (Extremely High Frequency), 30–300 GHz.

Abstract Despite informality being the norm in conflict-affected countries, most estimates of the impact of conflict on economic activity rely on formal sector data. Using high-frequency data from Afghanistan, this paper assesses how surges in conflict intensity affect not only the formal sector, but also informal and illicit activities. Nighttime light provides a proxy for aggregate economic activity, mobile phone traffic by registered firms captures fluctuations in formal sector output, and the land surface devoted to poppy cultivation gives a measure of illicit production. The unit of observation is the district and the period of reference is 2012–2016. The results show that an increase in conflict-related casualties has a strong negative impact on formal economic activity in the following quarter and a positive effect on illicit activity after two quarters. The impact on aggregate economic activity is negative, but more muted.

The yellow passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa) needs pollinators for fructification due to the existence of mechanisms that impede self-pollinating. Pollinators of great efficiency for the yellow passion fruit in Brazil are the bumblebee species (Xylocopa frontalis, X. grisescens and X. Suspecta). Deforestation by agricultural expansion in the region has a negative impact on these pollinators’ populations, leaving space for the action of cleptobiotic species with further damage to fruit production. The objective of this study was to evaluate the frequency of pollinating bees and floral visitors during yellow passion fruit culture’s post anthesis period in Northern Paraná and its fructification effects. Three passion fruit plantations in Northern Paraná were evaluated in the counties of Londrina and Assaí. Transect census were realized in each area, delimiting two 50 meter-paths, where the presence of bee in the open flowers was registered. Transects were run through for five minutes, every 15 minutes, starting at 1 pm and finishing at 8 pm. Results showed that the bumblebees present in the Northern Paraná region were the Xylocopa frontalis and X. suspecta, with the predominance of the first. Highest fructification rates occurred in the areas with more frequency of bumblebees and low frequency of cleptobiotic bees. Lowest fructification rates were due to the absence of bumblebees or high frequency of cleptobiotic bees

The article presents a review of the literature on the current problem of medicine-depressive disorders among medical students. The need to study the problem of depressive disorders among students of medical higher educational institutions is due to their high frequency and negative impact on the quality of life of students.
