The aim of the work was to analyze the long-term results of using a temporary “liquid” implant in the surgery of congenital glaucoma in children. The basis of the developed method of filtrative antiglaucomatous surgery (Patent of Ukraine No. 45099 of 2009) – viscosinusotrabeculotomy – has been set the task of reducing the risk of developing intra- and postoperative complications, reducing the scarring rate and maintaining the newly created ways of the intraocular fluid outflow, which in general will increase the effectiveness of surgical treatment of congenital glaucoma in children. 54 children (91 eyes) with simple congenital glaucoma at the age of 1 to 36 months were operated on average (8.7 ± 8.2) months. The persistent and long-lasting hypotensive effect achieved due to viscosinusotrabeculotomy in children with developed and far-advanced stages of congenital glaucoma stops the processes of stretching of the membranes of the eye and stabilizes their size, which in general allows preserving and visual functions improving, in infancy – creating conditions for their formation.

Статья посвящена изучению сопутствующей патологии, у женщин репродуктивного возраста, обращающихся в стационар с жалобами на нарушения менструального цикла (НМЦ). Актуальность данной тематики не вызывает сомнения, так как с каждым годом в России и во всем мире регистрируется все большее количество случаев НМЦ. По мнению ряда авторов, данные нарушения могут составлять до 50% всех патологий женской половой сферы. Большой интерес представляет и изучение ряда сопутствующих заболеваний, которые могут отягощать течение НМЦ или наоборот, приводить к их развитию. Целью работы стал анализ разнообразной сопутствующей патологии при НМЦ, с выявлением основных причин нарушений менструального цикла у женщин фертильного возраста. Объектами исследования стали 300 пациенток, с диагнозом НМЦ, которые были разделены на 3 группы, в зависимости от уровня лечебного учреждения, где они проходили обследование - по 100 пациенток: проходивших обследование в больнице скорой медицинской помощи, обследующиеся в женской консультации и проходящие лечение сопутствующей онкопатологии в областном онкологическом диспансере. В дальнейшем проводилась дополнительное деление в каждой группе на 2 подгруппы, в зависимости от того был ли НМЦ впервые выявленным или повторно выявленным. В самой работе проводился подробный анализ сопутствующей патологии у женщин в зависимости от группы и их возраста. Определялись не только «пораженные» системы органов, но и проводился углубленный анализ по нозологиям. Работа интересна еще и тем, что в ней у всех пациенток на протяжении исследования определялся уровень стресса и наличие возможных депрессивных состояний. Определение наиболее вероятных причин НМЦ стало завершающим этапом исследования. Полученные данные могут приблизить практикующих акушеров-гинекологов к более полному пониманию различных нарушений менструального цикла, что в целом, положительно скажется на качестве и эффективности оказываемой медицинской помощи The article is devoted to the study of concomitant pathology in women of reproductive age who go to the hospital with complaints of menstrual irregularities (NMC). The relevance of this topic is beyond doubt, since every year in Russia and around the world an increasing number of cases of NMC are registered. According to a number of authors, these violations can account for up to 50% of all pathologies of the female genital area. Of great interest is the study of a number of concomitant diseases that can aggravate the course of NMC or, conversely, lead to their development. The aim of the work was to analyze a variety of concomitant pathologies in NMC, with the identification of the main causes of menstrual irregularities in women of fertile age. The objects of the study were 300 patients diagnosed with NMC, who were divided into 3 groups, depending on the level of the medical institution where they were examined - 100 patients each: who were examined in an emergency hospital, examined in an antenatal clinic and undergoing treatment for concomitant oncopathology in the regional oncological dispensary. Subsequently, an additional division was carried out in each group into 2 subgroups, depending on whether the NMC was newly detected or re-identified. In the work itself, a detailed analysis of comorbidities in women was carried out, depending on the group and their age. Not only the "affected" organ systems were identified, but an in-depth analysis of nosologies was also carried out. The work is also interesting in that during the study the level of stress and the presence of possible depressive states were determined in all patients. Determination of the most probable causes of NMC was the final stage of the study. The data obtained can bring practicing obstetricians and gynecologists closer to a more complete understanding of various menstrual irregularities, which, in general, will have a positive effect on the quality and effectiveness of medical care

Political controversies in New South Wales and Canada recently have focused public attention on the constitutional practice of proroguing parliament. They have also shone a light on two lingering areas of uncertainty that surround its operation under the Commonwealth Constitution. This article seeks to clarify these two muddy areas of the law concerning prorogation. The first is the effect of prorogation on the Senate and its committees. Since Federation, the Senate has purported to authorise its committees to continue to function notwithstanding a prorogation of the Parliament. However, it is argued that this practice is unsupported by the provisions of the Constitution and the Senate has no such power. Second, the article examines the operation of the conventions that constrain the Governor-General's power to prorogue. Prorogation generally is exercised on the advice of the Prime Minister. However, this article contends that where a Prime Minister seeks to prorogue Parliament to avoid a vote of no confidence, the Governor-General will have a discretion to reject the advice. It may also be open to the Governor-General to reject an advice to prorogue where the purpose is to avoid scrutiny of a fundamental constitutional illegality. In Australia, the uncertainties that surround prorogation, coupled with the now precarious political landscape in Canberra, create the very real possibility of a prorogation crisis at the Commonwealth level. This article provides a response to these uncertainties. In doing so it offers a solution to how a prorogation crisis can be resolved, whilst maintaining the fine balance of power in our constitutional system.

Past study of the large-scale consequences of forced small-scale motions in electrically conducting fluids has led to the ‘α-effect’ dynamos. Various linear kinematic aspects of these dynamos have been explored, suggesting their value in the interpretation of observed planetary and stellar magnetic fields. However, large-scale magnetic fields with global boundary conditions can not be force free and in general will cause large-scale motions as they grow. I n this paper the finite amplitude behaviour of global magnetic fields and the large-scale flows induced by them in rotating systems is investigated. In general, viscous and ohmic dissipative mechanisms both play a role in determining the amplitude and structure of the flows and magnetic fields which evolve. In circumstances where ohmic loss is the principal dissipation, it is found that determination of a geo- strophic flow is an essential part of the solution of the basic stability problem. Nonlinear aspects of the theory include flow amplitudes which are independent of the rotation and a total magnetic energy which is directly proportional to the rotation. Constant a is the simplest example exhibiting the various dynamic balances of this stabilizing mechanism for planetary dynamos. A detailed analysis is made for this case to determine the initial equilibrium of fields and flows in a rotating sphere.

Keywords: discourse analysis, general will, Latvian politics, political representation, Saeima Latvian citizens are characterised by a very low level of political activism. How can this be explained through an understanding of politics? Prior to the 2018 Saeima (Latvian parliament) election, voters were interviewed on Latvian television discussing the pronouncements of various members of parliament. The researcher explores the relationship between the comments of these voters and the way they feel their interests are being represented by the state’s law makers. Throughout the interviews, voters are critical of Saeima, yet they fail to clearly explain their interests. The generally agreed upon duty of MPs is to discover the general will of the people, and attempt to fulfil this will through law making. In Latvia, the concept of forming interest groups representing the desires of various groups of citizens to create public expressions of their opinions is not considered a viable resource for political action. The citizens being interviewed believe that they cannot expect to have their interests represented by Saeima and prefer individual strategies focused on non-political action.
