The article outlines the early formative years in the history of the Department of Latin language in the Pediatric Medical Institute and traces the development in approaches to teaching Latin medical terminology, first introduced in 1932. After the abolition of gymnasium education the higher school had to deal with a lack of knowledge of classical languages. At the beginning, teaching Latin as the language of medicine was based on traditional methods of gymnasium education. Archival documents show the subject scope of the department which was in constant search for text material and special means of target training of medical students. Methodological problems of teaching and criteria for evaluation of knowledge were being gradually developed over the years in discussions with teachers at department meetings. The article offers details on the life and achievement of the first head of the department Konstantin P. Avdeev, together with an analysis of his scientific and practical activities. Avdeev’s wide interests and erudition come to the fore in his active work as a lecturer at a number of scientific organizations in Leningrad. Having amassed a unique library of over 7 thousand volumes, he was a famous bibliophile, an expert and a collector of bookplates (ex libris). The depth of his knowledge and a wide range of interests have shaped the values and promoted a creative approach to teaching medical Latin that still remains an important part of teaching the subject to first-year medical students. The article also provides brief information on Nora N. Zabinkova, his successor, whose activity has coincided with qualitative changes in the methods of teaching Latin. These changes were inspired by professor Maxim N. Chernyavsky, the head of the Department of Latin at the I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University. The Department of Latin in Leningrad Pediatrical Medical Institute was among the few in first introducing and then spreading the new methods of teaching Latin and medical terminology in all medical schools across the country.

ABSTRACT Introduction Biobanking is an emerging concept in Egypt. Medical students represent important future stakeholders in the research community. The objective of this work was to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and opinions of Egyptian medical students toward biobanking issues. Methods We designed a structured survey about these issues, which was communicated online with medical students at three universities in Egypt. Results A total of 315 of 364 questionnaires were completed. More than half the students have heard the term “biobanking” before. Approximately 77% had a general positive attitude toward the concept of biobanking; however, only 57.7% were willing to participate with their own or family samples. The positive attitude toward donation was significantly higher in participants with negative family history of inherited diseases (p = 0.02). Conclusion Although some students had limited knowledge of biobanking, they had a positive attitude toward the concept in general. However, this was not reflected in a similar attitude toward donating biospecimens, especially in those with a family history of inherited disease. Moreover, they expressed concerns about data protection and samples sharing with different stakeholders. Taking all these into account, educational activities about biobanking should be given to medical students to fill the knowledge gap on the subject.

History Of Bioethics

Within the latter half of the 30-year history of bioethics there has been an increasing pressure to address bioethical issues globally. Bioethics is not traditionally a theory-based enterprise, rather the focus has been problem related. With the introduction of the global perspective, theory has, however, become more important. One of the best known, probably the best known, theory of bioethics is the one presented by Tom L. Beauchamp and James F. Childress in their Principles of Biomedical Ethics in 1979. This theory is known as the “four principles” or the “Georgetown mantra” approach or “mid-level principlism.” It is the attempt to create a global framework for bioethics on the four principles—autonomy, justice, beneficence, and nonmaleficence—that I will scrutinize in this paper.

The relevance of the article is due to the need to study the features of emotional intelligence as an important factor in the context of professionally significant qualities of a future doctor. In Russian society, there is an increased need for qualified specialists in the medical field and solving urgent medical problems that have appeared in the last decade. Graduates of medical schools should be emotionally stable, be able to correctly submit information and empathize with others. Students from all walks of life enter a medical school with absolutely zero screening regarding their emotional state. There is also no structured learning to understand the role and special significance of emotions in people's lives. So they are left to fend for themselves, learn from their own experience, and end up either distancing themselves too much from suffering as self-defense or acting too aggressively in stressful situations. The need for emotion management is becoming evident in our society. Rapidly changing socio-economic and political conditions of society's development actualize the problem of developing personal and professional qualities of future doctors, including their emotional intelligence. The purpose of the article is to study the features of emotional intelligence and empathic abilities of medical students. The object of the study was students of a medical University. The article analyzes the results of the study of emotional intelligence in students of the medical faculty.

In November 1915, the Russian University of Warsaw appeared in Rostov-on-Don, which later became the Donskoy University, and in the present – the Rostov State Medical University. The Department and clinic of obstetrics and women’s diseases in Rostov-on-Don were set up as part of the medical department of the University of Warsaw, which was evacuated to Rostovon-Don also in 1915. The founder of the Department was a doctor of medicine, Professor Anastasiy Alexandrovich Sitcinski. The Rostov school of obstetricians and gynecologists, which is distinguished by continuity, the presence of family dynasties, observance of traditions in the transfer of knowledge, skills, and moral qualities, began with the activities of this doctor. The stages of development of the Rostov school of obstetrics and gynecology presented in the article are of current importance in the aspect of studying problems related to the history of medicine. In order to analyze the scientific directions of the Rostov school of obstetrics and gynecology, the peculiarities of the work of the departments of obstetrics and gynecology of the Rostov state medical University were studied. The assessment of continuity in scientific work and practical activities were carried out. The article presents the features of the development of the Rostov school of obstetrics and gynecology over the past 90 years. The work of individual departments of obstetrics and gynecology, their scientific directions were analyzed.

Biologic Factors

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.
