The need for basic training in toxicology of students of pharmaceutical universities and departments of toxicology is justified. The experience of teaching toxicology and medical protection to students of the St. Petersburg State Chemical Pharmaceutical Academy was analyzed. Academic teaching staff were trained in the methodology of teaching toxicology, and a participated in the preparation of the all-Russian textbook «Toxicology and Medical Protection» (2016) and three tutorials for students of medical and pharmaceutical universities. It is shown that in accordance with the current Federal State Educational Standard of the third generation, toxicology issues are included in the curriculum of a complex discipline «Life Safety. Emergency Medicine» as a stand-alone module. Students study toxicology in the fifth year having received a good basic training in medical, biological, and professional disciplines in previous years. For realization of cognitive and creative activity of students in the educational process, modern educational technologies are used which make it possible to improve the quality of teaching and to use school time more efficiently. The potential of using algorithmic workbooks, interactive forms of training, test control, case-method for facilitating the perception of theoretical knowledge and improving the quality of practical skills development is demonstrated. Results of the anonymous questionnaire survey, in which 153 of 198 students who studied toxicology and medical protection in the autumn semester of the 2017/2018 academic year participated, are reported. It was shown that more than 80% of the students surveyed are convinced of the need to study toxicology during the undergraduate training of specialists of pharmaceutical profile and positively assessed the methodology of teaching toxicology that is performed at the St. Petersburg State Chemical Pharmaceutical Academy.

The Relationship

Orientation: In recruiting and developing senior leaders for the organisation, great emphasis is placed on the personality of these individuals and on the resulting manifestations of their behaviour in the work context.Research purpose: The objective of this study was to explore the relationship between integrity and derailment to identify the dimensions of integrity that may reduce the risks of derailing in a group of senior leaders.Motivation for the study: As organisations become more complex, a higher quality of leadership is demanded. The quality of leadership is often determined by, among other things, the level of leaders’ integrity and the manner in which they are able to manage their own derailment at work. In this study, integrity is defined as the conflict and balance between our instincts (i.e. vices) and our ability to reason (i.e. our virtues), while leadership derailment is defined as the way in which leaders behave under stress or when they overuse a particular strength. Both constructs are of particular concern when they manifest in the organisation’s pool of high-potential leaders, who are the organisation’s future successors. However, most derailment cases are predictable and can be managed effectively with proper intervention.Research approach/design and method: A cross-sectional quantitative, correlational research design was followed. A non-probability purposive sample of 108 senior leaders in companies in Southern Africa participated in the study.Main findings: The results enabled the researchers to assess the relationship between integrity and derailment in order to identify the dimensions of integrity that are associated with a lowered risk of derailing in a group of senior leaders. It is apparent from the results that several of the integrity dimensions measured in the current study acted as significant predictors of derailment. The results indicate that the Giotto scales predict five of the Hogan scales to a degree that could be regarded as practically significant and are associated with medium to large effect sizes). These are Excitable, Cautious, Leisurely, Bold and Colourful. The prediction of Cautious can be described as practically important, while the prediction of the remainder of the Hogan scales was practically non-significant.Practical/managerial implications: From a practical point of view, the research findings allow leadership development practitioners, consultants and coaches to assist leaders in identifying the ways in which leaders will probably derail based on the results of the Giotto integrity test. Those involved in the development of leaders will also be able to develop the leaders’ level of integrity in order to reduce unnecessary derailment at work.Contribution/value-add: The study findings contribute valuable information on the relationship between integrity and derailment and the dimensions of integrity, which may reduce the risks of derailment of senior leaders.

Cadastral System

The cadastral system is a land management and land administration tool to provide a safe and reliable real property registration system. In Ethiopia, however, the attempts to implement a reliable urban cadastral system have not been successful, which translates into a deficient land administration system. This paper is an evaluation of the performance of the urban cadastral system of Addis Ababa, based on the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM) excellence model. The nine criteria of the model were used as independent and dependent variables. Data were collected through interviews, Likert-type questionnaires, and focus group discussions, and validated with method-to-method technique. Qualitative and quantitative data analysis techniques (ordinal logistics regression model) were employed. In order to ascertain reliability of the data, Cronbach’s alpha reliability test was performed in SPSS, and a coefficient of 0.883 was calculated, confirming that the items (questions) have relatively high internal consistency. According to the statistical result from the independent variables, the people result criteria estimated the achievement of cadastral organization at most (1.724). The societal result predicted with a coefficient of 0.281 less. This indicates that the people criterion determines more importantly than other variables. Overall, the independent variables scored the performance of the cadastral organization 24.92 out of 40 points. Findings from interviews and group discussion also confirmed that the most bottlenecks for the organizational achievement are the strategic plan, quality of leadership, bureaucratic processes, and supply of resources. Therefore, we suggest that the responsible authorities need to pay more attention to the enabler criteria (especially, the design of policy and strategy, quality of leadership, provision of resource and partnership, and the process), in order to improve the achievements of the urban cadastral system organization.

The chief complaint of individuals with hearing impairment is difficulty hearing in noise, with directional microphones emerging as the most capable remediation. Our purpose was to determine the impact of directional microphones on localization disability and concurrent handicap. Fifty-seven individuals participated unaided and then in groups of 19, using omni-directional microphones, directional-microphones, or toggle-switch equipped amplification. The outcome measure was a localization disabilities and handicaps questionnaire. Comparisons between the unaided group versus the aided groups, and the directional-microphone groups versus the other two aided groups revealed no significant differences. None of the microphone schemes either increased or decreased self-perceived localization disability or handicap. Objective measures of localization ability are warranted and if significance is noted, clinicians should caution patients when moving in their environment. If no significant objective differences exist, in light of the subjective findings in this investigation concern over decreases in quality of life and safety with directional microphones need not be considered. La principal queja de los individuos con trastornos auditivos es la dificultad para escuchar en medio de ruido, emergiendo los micrófonos direccionales como el más capaz remedio. Nuestro propósito fue determinar el impacto de los micrófonos direccionales en la incapacidad de localización y en los impedimentos concurrentes. Cincuenta y siete individuos participaron sin amplificación y luego, en grupos de 19, utilizando micrófonos omni-direccionales, micrófonos direccionales, o amplificación equipada con interruptores de palanca. La medida de resultado fue un cuestionario de discapacidades e impedimentos de localización. Las comparaciones entre el grupo sin amplificación versus los grupos con amplificación, y entre el grupo con micrófono direccional versus los otros dos grupos con amplificación no revelaron diferencias significativas. Ninguno de los esquemas de micrófono aumentó o disminuyó la discapacidad o el impedimento auto-percibido de localización. Las medidas objetivas de la habilidad de localización se garantizan y si se llega a notar algo significativo, los clínicos deberían advertir a los pacientes cuando se desplacen en sus ambientes. Si no existen diferencias objetivas significativas, a la luz de los hallazgos subjetivos de esta investigación, no debe considerarse ninguna preocupación sobre la disminución de la calidad de vida o la seguridad con el uso de micrófonos direccionales.

Objetivo: Determinar los factores sociodemográficos y clínicos asociados a la Calidad de Vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) en personas con hipertensión arterial y diabetes mellitus tipo 2.Métodos: Estudio analítico de corte transversal en una muestra de 184 usuarios de un programa de control de riesgo cardiovascular en Bucaramanga (Colombia). Se utilizó el instrumento EQ-5D-3L para evaluar la calidad de vida. Un modelo de regresión lineal múltiple fue llevado a cabo usando como desenlace la Escala Visual Análoga y como posibles predictores las dimensiones del EQ-5D, ajustando por edad, sexo, grupo de intervención (variable instrumental) y variables clínicas como la patología de base y el control de la misma.Resultados: La mediana de edad fue 63 años, 73,3% mujeres, 88,0% nivel socioeconómico bajo; mediana de Presión Arterial Sistólica de 130 mmHg (116,0-145,0) y de HbA1c 5,7% (5,4-6,2) en la población general, hallándose diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los grupos de patología. La mediana de la Escala Visual Análoga fue de 80(Q1:59-Q3:95) puntos, sin diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los grupos de patología. Manifestar dolor/malestar, tener problemas en las actividades cotidianas y el no control de la hipertensión arterial disminuyó la percepción de la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud, en 7,5, 18,1 y 7,3 puntos, respectivamente.Conclusiones: La CVRS, en general, fue alta. Esta fue mayor en las personas con diabetes mellitus tipo 2. Factores relacionados con la funcionalidad y control de la enfermedad fueron asociados con una menor percepción de la CVRS. Objective: To determine the sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) among people with hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods: Analytical cross-sectional study in a sample of 184 users of a cardiovascular risk control program in Bucaramanga (Colombia). The EQ-5D-3L instrument was used to assess quality of life. A multiple linear regression model was carried out using the Visual Analog Scale as the outcome and the dimensions of the EQ-5D as possible predictors, adjusting for age, sex, intervention group (instrumental variable), and clinical variables such as the disease and its control.Results: The median of age was 63 years, 73.3% women, 88.0% low socioeconomic level; Median Systolic Blood Pressure of 130 mmHg (116.0-145.0) and HbA1c 5.7% (5.4-6.2) in the general population, showing statistically significant differences between the pathology groups. The median of Visual Analog Scale was 80(Q1: 59-Q3: 95) points, with no statistically significant differences between the pathology groups. Manifesting pain/discomfort, problems with usual activities and lack of hypertension control decreased the perception of HRQoL, by 7.5, 18.1 and 7.3 points, respectively.Conclusions: The HRQoL in general was high. It was higher among people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Factors related to the functionality and control of the disease were associated with a lower perception HRQoL.
