In the article, the author refers to the individualism-collectivism dichotomy, which is a theoretical construct serving to explain the mutual relations of the individual and the group. It moreover provides a dimension differentiating between cultures which give the primacy to the individual over the group and those, which privilege the group over the individual. An individualistic tendency means that an individual is the subject for whom the collective is an object of action. Collectivism is the polar opposite view: the collective entity is the proper subject of the proceedings, in relation to which individuals are objects. The author of the article, acknowledging the need to recognize the quality of images and views of academic youth about a career path, invoked the structure and function of selected normative assumptions as important dimensions of the socio-cultural mentality of the individual. The research study helped grasp the ‘individualistic’ and ‘collectivist’ normative assumptions of university youth,, emerging in the course of socialization and originating in the generalization of social experience.

Biofilm Structure

We have simulated a nitrifying biofilm with one ammonia and one nitrite oxidising species in order to elucidate the effect of various extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) production scenarios on biofilm structure and function. The individual-based model (IbM) BacSim simulates diffusion of all substrates on a two-dimensional lattice. Each bacterium is individually simulated as a sphere of given size in a continuous, three-dimensional space. EPS production kinetics was described by a growth rate dependent and an independent term (Luedeking-Piret equation). The structure of the biofilm was dramatically influenced by EPS production or capsule formation. EPS production decreased growth of producers and stimulated growth of non-producers because of the energy cost involved. For the same reason, EPS accumulation can fall as its rate of production increases. The patchiness and roughness of the biofilm decreased and the porosity increased due to EPS production. EPS density was maximal in the middle of the vertical profile. Introduction of binding forces between like cells increased clustering.

Urgency of the research. Study of the problem of implementation of monetary obligations in the field of banking relations is determined by violation of the principle of equity in relation to individuals. Target setting. The state has actually removed from the regulation of credit relations in the field of ensuring the fulfilment of monetary obligations that arise between the individual and the bank. Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. Many modern scientists (I. Bezklubyi, T. Bodnar, A. Dzera, A. Kolodiy, V. Lutz, I. Opadchiy and others) studied the institution of the fulfilment of monetary obligations. Uninvestigated parts of general matters defining. Behind attention of scientists was left the issue of protecting the rights of individuals who have monetary obligations to the bank and do not have the status of the subject of entrepreneurial activity. The research objective. The purpose of the article is to develop legislative proposals taking into account international and foreign practice in the aspect of protecting the rights of individuals who have monetary obligations to the bank. The statement of basic materials. Specifics of legal regulation of contractual relations is determined between banks and recipients of funds in the aspect of liability for late fulfilment of monetary obligations, propositions to the legislation were substantiated. Conclusions. It is offered to solve the problem of violation of the principle of fairness in the aspect of fulfilment of monetary obligations in the field of banking relations through legislative changes.

And Function

Because of the superficial resemblance of the digestive diverticula of the Lamellibranchs, and of many other Invertebrates, to the liver of the Vertebrates, and the discovery in them of glycogen by Bernard (1855), they became known as the “liver.” Weber (1880) later introduced the name hepatopancreas as a result of his discovery of the secretory powers of the diverticula in the Crustacea. In spite of the fact that none of the constituents of bile has ever been discovered in the Invertebrates, and that the digestive diverticula are in no way analogous to the liver of the Vertebrates, as Jordan (1912) has shown in his review of the subject, the terms “liver” and “hepatopancreas,” as well as the less questionable designation “digestive gland,” are still generally used. Moreover, no attempt is made to distinguish between these organs in the different groups of Invertebrates although both their structure and function in, for example, the Lamellibranchs, Gastropods, Cephalopods, and Crustacea are totally different. In some cases they constitute a digestive gland; in others, including the Lamellibranchs, as I hope to show in this paper, their function is that of assimilation, and so they are most suitably designated digestive diverticula.

The retina is a part of the central nervous system, a thin multilayer with neuronal lamination, responsible for detecting, preprocessing, and sending visual information to the brain. Many retinal diseases are characterized by hemodynamic perturbations and neurodegeneration leading to vision loss and reduced quality of life. Since catecholamines and respective bindings sites have been characterized in the retina, we systematically reviewed the literature with regard to retinal expression, distribution and function of alpha1 (α1)-, alpha2 (α2)-, and beta (β)-adrenoceptors (ARs). Moreover, we discuss the role of the individual adrenoceptors as targets for the treatment of retinal diseases.

AbstractThe hammerhead ribozyme is a small RNA endonuclease found in sub-viral plant pathogens, in transcripts from certain animal satellite DNAs and encoded at distinct loci ofArabidopsis thaliana. Kinetic analyses of tertiary stabilised ribozymes from peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd),Schistosoma mansoniandA. thalianarevealed a ten-fold difference in cleavage rates. Core nucleotide variations affected cleavage reactions least in theA. thalianaribozyme, and most in theS. mansoniribozyme. The reverse ligation reaction was catalysed efficiently by the PLMVd andA. thalianaribozymes. The different behaviour of the individual hammerhead ribozymes is discussed in terms of structure and function.

Diagnosis is possible on a number of levels. Traditional, overall, and interrelationship types of diagnosis are differentiated. The effectiveness of the traditional diagnosis, which is used to indicate etiology of disease, to assess the effect of the disorder on structure and function, and to classify the illness, is questioned, since it usually leads to a general prognosis based on statistical probability rather than to a unique prognosis indicating specific predictions and treatments for the individual patient. The doctor, when making this kind of diagnosis, acts as an objective observer and assesses an abstract concept, the illness rather than a person, so that the traditional diagnosis is illness-centered. By including features of the patient's personality and his relationships with others, the overall diagnosis provides a more embracing overview of the individual's physical and emotional conditions. It has greater ongoing validity in description and of usefulness for treatment by centering upon the patient as an individual whose conflicts and sufferings are felt and understood. It may require lengthy interviewing, but this may be shortened in practice by focusing upon the particular aspect of the patient's world which seems central to the pathology. This focal area is often determined spontaneously through a “flash,” the mutual intuitive recognition of an important understanding between doctor and patient, leading to further diagnostic and therapeutic work. The flash establishes a climate of high emotional charge and involves both patient and doctor intrinsically in the diagnostic process and its outcome. It is one of the means by which an interrelationship diagnosis, centered on the doctor-patient relationship, may be arrived at. Truly successful treatment in general practice, and perhaps in most branches of medicine, is probably based on some form of interrelationship diagnosis, even though this diagnosis may not have been verbalized or properly conceptualized by the doctor. Case material illustrates the effectiveness of each type of diagnosis for the physician and for his patient.

One of the goals of rehabilitation of children with disabilities (HHS) is to improve their quality of life. For this purpose, various technical means, devices and adaptations which solve a number of problems in life of the child are developed. But there is another aspect that affects the quality of life of such children — is the attitude of people around them. The child is emotionally unstable individual, his psyche is very vulnerable to react to negative emotions. In this case the saying that ‘meet on clothes’ is very applicable. And if the child looks aesthetically pleasing, then others perceive him positively. But in some diseases (physical deviations from the norm) there is no ergonomic and aesthetic clothing. The paper considers the interaction of the systems Society — Textile means of rehabilitation — Child. It is revealed that textile means of rehabilitation, including inclusive clothing have an impact not only on the child’s condition, but also on the emotional state of the society in contact with him, especially his parents. Research on the systematization of information about violations of the structure and function of the body allowed to identify and group the possible causes of violations of the proportions of the child’s body. Some can be compensated by the use of fixing products, others through the use of illusions that contribute to the visual alignment of the proportions of the child. The article formulates the basic principles of designing textile means of rehabilitation and inclusive clothing for children with disabilities, aimed at harmonizing the perception of the external appearance of the child.

Abstract Background: Word embedding approaches have revolutionized natural language processing (NLP) research. These approaches aim to map words to a low-dimensional vector space, in which words with similar linguistic features cluster together. Embedding-based methods have also been developed for proteins, where words are amino acids and sentences are proteins. The learned embeddings have been evaluated qualitatively, via visual inspection of the embedding space and extrinsically, via performance comparison on downstream protein prediction tasks. However, these sequence embeddings have the caveat that biological metadata do not exist for each amino acid, in order to measure the quality of each unique learned embedding vector. Results: Here, we present dom2vec, an approach for learning protein domain embeddings using word2vec on InterPro annotations. In contrast to sequence embeddings, biological metadata do exist for protein domains, related to each domain separately. Therefore, we present four intrinsic evaluation strategies to quantitatively assess the quality of the learned embedding space. To perform a reliable evaluation in terms of biology knowledge, we selected the metadata related to the most distinctive biological characteristics of domains. These are the structure, enzymatic and molecular function of a given domain. Notably, dom2vec obtains adequate level of performance in the intrinsic assessment, therefore we can draw an analogy between the local linguistic features in natural languages and the domain structure and function information in domain architectures. Moreover, we demonstrate the dom2vec applicability on protein prediction tasks, by comparing it with state-of-the-art sequence embeddings in three downstream tasks. We show that dom2vec outperform sequence embeddings for toxin and enzymatic function prediction and is comparable with sequence embeddings in cellular location prediction. Conclusions: We report that the application of word2vec on InterPro annotations produces domain embeddings with two significant advantages over sequence embeddings. First, each unique dom2vec vector can be quantitatively evaluated towards its available structure and function metadata. Second, the produced embeddings can outperform the sequence embeddings for a subset of downstream tasks. Overall, dom2vec embeddings are able to capture the most important biological properties of domains and surpass sequence embeddings for a subset of prediction tasks.
