The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on occupational satisfaction, work-related stress of nursing personnel and quality of patient care

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated adversities associated with the working conditions of healthcare professionals, contributing to the deterioration of their physical and mental health, particularly as a result of work overload and daily stressors such as long working hours, low pay, lack of professional recognition, and high risk of infection. Purpose: The investigation of the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, on occupational satisfaction, on work-related stress and in the quality of care of the nursing staff. Material and Method: Articles were searched in the electronic databases Medline, PubMed central, and Google Scholar. In Medline databases, PubMed central, Google Scholar, the combination of indexing words was used: “oc¬cupational satisfaction, nurses, quality of patient care, Covid -19 pandemic”, while in the PubMed database the ad¬vanced search option was used and the key words: "work-related stress, nurses, quality of care, Covid -19 pandemic". Results: From the literature search, ten (10) studies met the inclusion criteria of the review. Upon analysis of these ten (10) studies, six (6) found an impact on occupational satisfaction affecting the quality of care, and four (4) studies identified a relationship between work-related stress and quality of care during the COVID-19 pandemic. Discussion - Conclusions: The collection of data and their analysis demonstrated that the healthcare system was severely tested during the COVID-19 pandemic. Factors influencing the occupational satisfaction and work-related stress of nurses, as well as patient care quality, include the increase in patient numbers, workload and working con¬ditions, prolonged work hours, and shortages of staff and resources. Healthcare professionals endeavoured to cope with challenging work conditions, aiming ultimately to provide the best possible care to patients.

Impact of sarcopenia on outcomes following lumbar spine surgery for degenerative disease: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis.

This study aimed to consolidate the evidence regarding the prognostic influence of sarcopenia in degenerative lumbar spine surgeries. A literature search of public databases was conducted up to Nov 15, 2023 using combinations of the key words "sarcopenia" and "lumbar spine surgery". Eligible studies were those that focused on adults undergoing decompression or fusion surgery for degenerative lumbar spine diseases, and compared the outcomes between patients with and without preoperative sarcopenia. Primary outcomes were change in ODI and back and leg pain VAS pain scores. Secondary outcomes were changes in Eq.5D, JOA, SFHS-p scores, and LOS. Ultimately, nine retrospective studies with a total of 993 patients were included. Sarcopenic patients exhibited significantly worse functional improvement as assessed by ODI compared to non-sarcopenic patients (pooled standardized mean difference [pSMD] = 0.53, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.17-0.90). Back pain (pSMD = 0.31, 95% CI:0.15-0.47) and leg pain (pSMD = 0.21, 95% CI:0.02 - 0.39) improvement were also less in sarcopenic patients. Non-sarcopenic patients had greater improvements in Eq.5D (pSMD = 0.25) and SFHS-p (pSMD = 0.39), and shorter LOS (pSMD = 0.62). As compared to patients without sarcopenia, those with sarcopenia undergoing lumbar spine surgery for degenerative diseases have lower improvements in functional ability, quality of life, physical health, pain relief and extended hospitalization compared to those without sarcopenia.

The Emergence and Development of Palestinian Arabic Lexicon and Morphosyntax From 18 to 36 Months: A Communicative Development Inventory Study.

This study presents a comprehensive exploration of lexical and grammatical development in Palestinian Arabic (PA). The study aims to test the validity of the Palestinian Arabic Communicative Development Inventory (PA-CDI) as well as generate growth curves for lexical and morphosyntactic development, examine the order of emergence of both lexical and morphosyntactic categories, and explore the contribution of demographic and developmental factors to language development. Data were collected from 1,399 parents of PA children aged 18-36 months using an online PA-CDI. The results show that as age increased, so did lexical and morphosyntactic production, along with considerable variability across individuals. While lexical development in PA resembles the order observed in other languages with nouns preceding verbs and adjectives, morphosyntactic development indicates early emergence of verbal inflectional morphology prior to noun pluralization or negation. Age of word combination and health problems are predictive of lexical and morphosyntactic development, and so are parental concerns. Our findings indicate the potential of the PA-CDI as an assessment tool for lexical and morphosyntactic development among PA-speaking children in Israel. Our developmental growth curves may also be used to identify children at risk for developmental language disorder, particularly those falling below the 10th percentile, thus allowing for early identification and early intervention. The use of background variables, specifically parental concerns, health issues, and word combinations, along with the PA-CDI, could potentially enhance the precision of language delay assessment. https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.26026777.

Heat Metrics and Maternal-Child Health Diagnoses in Emergency Departments in the United States: A Scoping Review.

To summarize current research on associations between heat metrics and emergency department discharge diagnoses for US pregnant women and children from birth to age 18 via a scoping review. Climate change directly contributes to extreme weather conditions and environmental changes and indirectly affects health and the health care system. Pregnant women and children are believed to be more susceptible to extreme heat, but few empirical studies have been conducted evaluating effects of heat metrics on these populations. Ovid MEDLINE, CIHAHL, SCOPUS, Web of Science, JSTOR, and PsycINFO databases were searched using a combination of key words. Twelve studies were selected for this review. In pregnant women, positive associations were found between mean daily temperature and multiple subtypes of pregnancy complications, including threatened or spontaneous abortion, renal diseases, infectious diseases, diabetes, and hypertension. In children, positive associations were found with all-cause diagnoses; asthma; dehydration; electrolyte disorders; heat-related illness; infection; endocrine, nutritional, and metabolic diseases; injury; and otitis media and external emergency department discharge diagnoses and temperature or heatwave versus non-heatwave. By tracking associations between maternal-child emergency department discharge diagnoses and various heat metrics, researchers can contribute to better clinical practices that promote environmental justice and climate resilience.

Persian compounds in the mental lexicon

Compound words exhibit properties of both single words and phrases, raising the question of the extent to which compounds are processed as single units or as word combinations. Most studies have addressed this in Germanic languages (English, German and Dutch) which have the similar compound structure of modifier-head ordering. To see whether this limits our understanding of compound word processing and to examine compound decomposition in another language, we presented Persian stimuli auditorily in a paradigm involving typing out stimuli. We examined the effects of semantic transparency, modifier-head ordering and the potential differences between attached compounds written without spaces and those with a space between the constituents. We report the inter-keystroke-interval times, yielding letter-by-letter production of compound structures produced by 31 native speakers of Persian. Results analyzed in a linear mixed-model regression analysis suggested that, for all compounds, typing speed is slowed at the boundary between the constituents of Persian compound words. These effects, which we interpret to be evidence of morphological decomposition, were present for both semantically transparent and opaque compounds, for both head-initial and head-final compounds, and for both attached and spaced compounds. We observed greater morphological decomposition effects in semantically transparent (versus opaque) compounds. We also observed that the way transparency influences the degree of decomposition is moderated by headedness. Thus, this first report for the written production of compound words confirms previous observations of significant decomposition at morphological boundaries in English compounds, but with variation specific to Persian.

Incidence, Risk, and Clinical Course of New-Onset Diabetes in Long COVID: Protocol for a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Cohort Studies.

COVID-19, an infectious disease pandemic, affected millions of people globally, resulting in high morbidity and mortality. Causing further concern, significant proportions of COVID-19 survivors endure the lingering health effects of SARS-CoV-2, the pathogen that causes COVID-19. One of the diseases manifesting as a postacute sequela of COVID-19 (also known as "long COVID") is new-onset diabetes. The aim of this study is to examine the incidence of new-onset diabetes in patients with long COVID and assess the excess risk compared with individuals who tested negative for COVID-19. The study also aims to estimate the population-attributable fraction for COVID-19 as a risk factor for new-onset diabetes in long COVID and investigate the clinical course of new-onset diabetes cases. This is a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis. PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science databases will be systematically searched to identify articles published between December 2019 and July 2024. A comprehensive search strategy for each database will be developed using a combination of Medical Subject Headings terms, subject headings, and text words to identify eligible studies. Cohort studies and randomized controlled trials (only control arms) involving patients with COVID-19 of any age, with follow-up data on new-onset diabetes in long COVID, will be considered for inclusion. Controls will comprise individuals who tested negative for COVID-19, with or without other respiratory tract infections. Three independent reviewers (AST, NB, and TT) will perform article selection, data extraction, and quality assessment of the studies. A fourth reviewer (ST) will review the identified studies for final inclusion in the analysis. The random-effects DerSimonian-Laird models will be used to estimate the pooled incidence proportion (%), incidence rate of diabetes (per 1000 person-years), and risk ratio (with 95% CIs) for diabetes incidence. A total of 1972 articles were identified through the initial search conducted in August 2023. After excluding duplicates, conducting title and abstract screening, and completing full-text reviews, 41 articles were found to be eligible for inclusion. The search will be updated in July 2024. Currently, data extraction is underway, and the meta-analysis is expected to be completed in August 2024. Publication of the study findings is anticipated by the end of 2024. The study findings should provide valuable insights to inform both clinical practice and public health policies regarding the effective management of new-onset diabetes in patients with long COVID.

Positive psychology interventions in patients with prostate cancer: A systematic review.

e17005 Background: Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy in men and often results in psychiatric symptoms due to the direct disease effects, hormonal treatments, functional losses, and psychological responses of patients to the cancer. Positive psychology interventions have shown promise in alleviating psychological symptoms in patients with chronic diseases but are infrequently studied in patients with prostate cancer. Therefore, our systematic review aimed to examine the benefits of positive psychology interventions for patients with prostate cancer. Methods: Using PRISMA guidelines, a systematic literature search was conducted using the Medline, PubMed/Medline, and PsycInfo databases using a combination of MeSH terms and free text words, including publications up to November 2023. Studies were eligible if they included at least one positive psychology therapy intervention and the title or abstract mentioned the inclusion of patients with prostate cancer. Two individuals independently reviewed reports identified by the search to meet the above criteria and performed a quality assessment scale of studies based on standardized criteria that were adapted from those used in prior systematic reviews. The study was pre-registered on the Open Science Framework (OSF) repository. Results: The database searches yielded 1244 initial studies, 10 of which met inclusion criteria. Of the 10 included studies, 2 were randomized clinical trials, 2 were pilot feasibility trials, 3 were single-arm interventional studies, and 3 were cross-sectional studies. Manuscripts focused on older adults, with reported mean ages ranging from 54.5 to 72.0. Positive psychology interventions consisted of mindfulness-based therapies, meditation, hope and resilience therapies, and well-being therapies. Most studies showed a positive effect on improving outcomes for patients with early to advanced stage prostate cancers, including psychological distress, mood disorders, anxiety, quality of life, happiness, and life satisfaction. However, most of the studies were limited by small sample size, qualitative findings, loss to follow-up, and observational data. Most studies also excluded patients with severe psychiatric disorders, who may potentially benefit most from these interventions. Conclusions: This systematic review demonstrates that positive psychology approaches may have benefit in patients with prostate cancer. However, further larger prospective studies and clinical trials are needed to determine whether these interventions have proven benefit in this understudied population.

Psychometric properties of disease-specific health-related quality of life instruments for food allergy: A COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments-based systematic review.

Food allergies severely impact the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients and their caregivers (family or informal caregivers). Currently there is no comprehensive review to provide an overview and critical assessment of the instruments in the field. Six databases were searched from inception until 10 August 2023, and a combination of subject terms and free words was used to search the literature. We used the COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments methodology (COSMIN) to evaluate the measurement properties of the instruments. Forty-one studies reported on ten eligible instruments. Based on COSMIN guidelines, one instrument was recommended for Grade A, and the remaining nine instruments were recommended for Grade B. The Grade A instrument identified, the Food Allergy Quality of Life Questionnaire-Parent Form (FAQLQ-PF), can help researchers assess the effectiveness of treatment for patients with food allergy and to understand the psychosocial impact of the disease on patients.

The relationship between vocabulary and grammar in two children with 5p deletion syndrome

ABSTRACT 5p deletion syndrome is a rare genetic condition associated with severe speech and language problems. In general, research on speech and language skills is scarce, but there is more knowledge on phonetic and phonological skills than on lexical and grammatical skills. And till now no studies have addressed the relationship between grammar and vocabulary. Therefore, in this study, we address aspects of this relation based on longitudinal parent-reported data (MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories) from two children with this syndrome aged 2;0–7;3, and 1;11–7;1, respectively. We examine the development of the vocabulary size in each child, seen in relation to the development of grammar (inflections, combinations of words, complexity, and productivity), and see to what extent they can be compared to typically developing children. Results show that they follow a similar pattern to typically developing children but are delayed and have slightly different individual profiles.

Nurses' attitudes, beliefs and knowledge of sleep health in residential aged care: An integrative literature review.

To identify, synthesize and evaluate primary research on registered nurses' (RN) knowledge, attitudes and beliefs about sleep health and sleep health management of older adults living in residential aged care. Integrative review. Medline, Embase and CINAHL databases from inception to September 2023. Databases were searched using a combination of key words, subject heading terms. All abstracts and full-text articles were screened by two researchers. Qualitative synthesis of the included articles was conducted. Inductive content analysis was used to identify themes and analyse data. A total of 923 abstracts were screened resulting in a final yield of 13 articles. Three themes were identified: (i) RN experience with sleep-disturbed residents, (ii) the emotional burden of sleep disturbances on RN and, (iii) organizational barriers to promoting resident's healthy sleep. Inappropriate administration of benzodiazepines and psychotropic drugs to manage residents' sleep disturbances was a major issue and lack of resources in residential aged care to facilitate sleep. There were concerns on nursing activity that disturbed residents' sleep and striking a balance between facilitating sleep and meeting managerial expectations was challenging. This review identified that nurses' decision-making has an integral role in the management of sleep health in residents in aged care. Whilst evidence-based guidelines for managing sleep in residential aged care are available, there is a lack of translation to practice. Understanding RN perspectives is critical to improving sleep health models of care in residential aged care. This review found that RN are attuned to the implications of sleep disturbance in residential aged care but are constrained by current sleep health models of care. Not applicable.

Communicating with Humor: Poetic Exchanges in the L2 Classroom

As we strive to improve speaking skills in the L2 classroom, we often aim at “correct,” standardized language over the actual meaning of the spoken words. With less investment in the content, it is difficult for L2 students to appreciate the interactions and enjoy, for example, humor using the target language as they tend to remain continuously passive in the learning process under the pressure to speak accurately. In order to motivate students to communicate with their own voices in a relaxed learning environment, this report introduces a new way of expression and communication using a target language, that is, the use of linked poetry, in which students follow the rules of a mora/syllable pattern and exchange written poetic expressions with one another. This exercise of student-driven word choice in a stress-free setting triggers laughter and enjoyment that increase students’ incentive to appreciate the meaning of each word and the possibility of word combinations in the target language.

UNIVERSAL AND SPECIFIC IN THE FORMATION AND FUNCTION OF COMPOUND ABBREVIATED WORDS IN THE INDO-EUROPEAN AND CHINESE LANGUAGES

The purpose of the proposed study is to determine universal and specific features in the systems of compound abbreviated words of some Indo-European languages (Ukrainian, Polish, English, French, Italian, German), which are inflectional in their morphological nature and have letter graphics, and the Chinese language, which is the root language and has hieroglyphic graphics. The object of study is the abbreviations of the above-mentioned languages and trends in the functioning of these language units. The subject of research is the relationship between the derivatives of compound abbreviated units and those language units that act as creative for them. The material of the study was taken from several dictionaries of abbreviations, and many lists and realities available for review. In total, more than 4500 language units were considered, of which almost 1150 (in total from different languages) were analyzed. It should be noted that only those units that are formed from word combinations, i.e. compound abbreviated words, were studied; Abbreviations of one word were not considered as an object of analysis. The main methods of research are general methods of analysis and synthesis, procedures of methods of comparative, word-forming, syntactic, graphic analysis and descriptive method. The result of the analysis is presented in a number of conclusions. The formation and functioning of compound abbreviated words is a linguistic universal at the present stage of language development. Representatives of the linguistic schools formed on the basis of the Indo-European languages consider the law of economy of speech means to be the “driving force” of the abbreviation process. In Chinese linguistics, there is an opinion that the phenomenon of contraction is natural for the Chinese language, because it reflects the ancient monosyllabicity of Chinese words. In different languages, the set of ways to form compound abbreviated words depends on their typological features, the rules of the order of words in combinations, graphic features of written speech, pronunciation features, and methods of word formation.

Обработка зрительной вербальной информации в условиях чтения и категоризации слов в составе одного согласованного словосочетания

The purpose of this study was to identify neurophysiological differences in information processing by the brain during passive reading and semantic categorization of individual words within a phrase. Materials and methods. The research involved 25 natural science students of Nizhny Novgorod universities. In the course of the experiment, the subjects were presented with word combinations consisting of an attribute and a noun on a computer monitor. In the first series of presentations, the task was to classify the attribute (target condition) and read the noun (non-target condition), in the second, to classify the noun and read the attribute. This allowed us to assess the restructuring of information processing when changing the task within a phrase, as well as to compare the processing of the word in the first and second positions in the target and non-target conditions. Using the 21-channel Neuron-Spectrum-4/VPM electroencephalograph (Neurosoft, Russia), event-related potentials (ERPs) obtained during the response to presented stimuli were recorded. Results. No differences were observed in attribute processing between the target and non-target conditions when tasks changed. For nouns, differences were revealed in ERP components between the target and non-target conditions. There was a more pronounced peak of the P200 component, a less pronounced peak of the N400 and a late negative wave of the N700 component during the categorization of nouns compared to their passive reading. Thus, when performing different tasks within a phrase, the brain changes the nature of verbal information processing, which is manifested in strengthening early lexical access, followed by the facilitation of lexico-semantic processing and activation of cognitive control mechanisms at the latest stages during the categorization of the second word in a phrase (noun) compared to its passive reading.

A frequency-based exploratory study of word combinations by EFL learners towards adjective-noun collocations

The mastery of formulaic sequences by language learners is considered to be crucial since it enables them to accomplish the basic communicative requirements (Wray, 2002) of target language use. Of all the formulaic sequences, the mastery of collocations is known to have an enormous impact on learners’ ability to move beyond the intermediate level. This data-driven study explores the word combinations (both conventional and unconventional L2 strings) of L2 users of English. Specifically, the adjective-noun combinations in an L2 corpus (TUWE) were explored to find the potential L2 strings functioning as unconventional collocations. Then, these L2 strings were compared with the adjective-noun collocations in the LOCNESS corpus to determine whether the choices made by L2 learners differed from those of L1 users. The findings show that the spectrum of the L2 word combinations was broader in comparison with LOCNESS. The results suggest that the L2 learners produced a higher number of unconventional collocations than conventional collocations matching with the L1. The L2 strings support that the use of collocations can be rather problematic for learners of English however advanced they are. Some pedagogical implications of the findings for explicit collocation and vocabulary teaching are discussed.

The Relationship Between L2 Spanish Proficiency and Features of Written Lexical and Lexicogrammatical Use

Abstract Research has demonstrated that features of lexical and lexicogrammatical use are important predictors of productive second language (L2) proficiency (e.g. Kyle et al. 2018). While some features of lexical use have been studied with L2s other than English (e.g. Tracy-Ventura 2017), multivariate lexical and lexicogrammatical approaches in these L2s are rare. In this study, we extend the use of multivariate approaches to L2 Spanish writing. Our learner data included a subset of the CEDEL2 corpus (Lozano 2021), comprised of proficiency scores and 644 descriptive essays written in L2 Spanish by L1 English writers. Correlational analyses were conducted between proficiency scores and indices of lexical diversity (e.g. MTLD), mean word and bigram frequencies, and bigram strength of association (MI, delta). A final regression analysis accounted for 48.3 per cent of the variance in proficiency scores. Following previous L2 English writing research (e.g. Kyle et al. 2018; Monteiro et al. 2020), more proficient L2 Spanish writers tended to use a wider variety of lexical items, more strongly associated word combinations, and lexical items that are less frequent in corpora.

Application of an adaptive genetic algorithm and machine learning in an English text analysis teaching system

English text analysis is required for quantitative grammar, phrase, and word assessment to improve its usage in conversation, drafting, etc. In particular, a teaching system requires the flawless and precise use of English words, phrases, and sentences for fundamental and knowledge-based learning. Data integration and interoperability, data volume, and data variety pose difficulties for text data analytics. This article discusses a heterogeneous English teaching system text analysis solution that integrates a Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Deep Learning (DL). The Text Analytical Model (TAM) uses fused methods (FM) to handle words and their placement for sentence framing. The framed teaching sentence is analyzed lexically for its precision and meaning with conventional features. Initially, the possible word combinations using the crossover and mutation operations of the genetic process are performed. The outcome of the genetic process forecasts different possible sentence combinations for delivering the English context to students. The mutation process identifies the most precise lexical sentence that fits the subject and context. Based on precision, the DL model is trained to reduce the initial population of the GA process; this is achieved in English teaching through repetitions or drilling performed for different sentences and words. The learning converges towards precision in delivering context-based words and sentences by reducing unnecessary crossovers in the genetic process to reduce computational complexity. This feature, therefore, achieves high-precision convergence with less computation time compared to methods of the same kind. TAM-FM improves the precision convergence, forecast probability, and population refinement by 9.5%, 11.39%, and 8.81%, respectively. TAM-FM reduces the computation time and complexity by 9.67% and 8.3%, respectively.

Planned oocyte cryopreservation: a systematic review and meta-regression analysis.

Awareness of the age-related decline in fertility potential has increased the popularity of planned oocyte cryopreservation (POC). However, data regarding outcomes of POC, including rates of women returning to thaw oocytes, as well as pregnancy and live birth rates, are scarce and based mostly on small case series. POC was defined as cryopreservation exclusively for prevention of future age-related fertility loss. The primary outcome was live birth rate per patient. The secondary outcomes included the return to thaw rate and laboratory outcomes. A meta-regression analysis examining the association between live birth and age above 40 or below 35 was conducted. We conducted a systematic database search from inception to August 2022. The search included PubMed (MEDLINE) and EMBASE. Our search strategies employed a combination of index terms (Mesh) and free text words to compile relevant concepts. The systematic review and meta-regression were undertaken following registration of systematic review (PROSPERO registration number CRD42022361791) and were reported following guidelines of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses 2020 (PRISMA 2020). The database search yielded 3847 records. After the selection process, 10 studies, conducted from 1999 to 2020, were included. Overall, 8750 women underwent POC, with a mean cryopreservation age of 37.2 (±0.8). Of those, 1517 women returned to use their oocytes with a return rate of 11.1% (± 4.7%). The mean age at the time of cryopreservation for women who returned to use their oocytes was 38.1 (±0.4), with an average of 12.6 (±3.6) cryopreserved oocytes per woman. In a meta-analysis, the oocyte survival rate was 78.5% with a 95% CI of 0.74-0.83 (I2 = 93%). The live birth rate per patient was 28% with a 95% CI of 0.24-0.33 (I2 = 92%). Overall, 447 live births were reported. In a sub-group analysis, women who underwent cryopreservation at age ≥40 achieved a live birth rate per patient of 19% (95% CI 0.13-0.29, I2 = 6%), while women aged ≤35 years old or younger had a higher live birth rate per patient of 52% (95% CI 0.41-0.63, I2 = 7%). POC emerges as a feasible option for women aiming to improve their chances of conceiving at a later reproductive age. Nonetheless, it must be acknowledged that the overall success rates of POC are limited and that the likelihood of successful live birth declines as the age at cryopreservation rises. With increasing interest in POC, the collation of comprehensive and high-quality data is imperative to clearly define the outcomes for various age groups. CRD42022361791.

Cultural and Aesthetic Dynamics of Photography as a Form of Contemporary Art

Art-photography is a form of contemporary art that marked itself in the early 1960s. Its historical evolution has not been sufficiently studied. At the same time, it provides an opportunity to identify and understand the logic of the internal development of art-photography and its relationship with the external cultural context. The cultural and aesthetic dynamics of art-photography is associated with three historical stages: early, mature and late postmodernism (meta modernism) and the corresponding forms of contemporary art. The first stage (1960—1970) saw the realization by contemporary artists of the conceptual possibilities of photography. It was mainly the photographic documentation of process-action forms of contemporary art. The same period saw the birth and formation of the main artistic strategies and creative methodologies of art-photography: adherence to documentaries, the use of staging (directing), the introduction of seriality (typology), the combination of word and image. The second stage (1980s — 1990s) of art-photography functioning is characterized by further development and enrichment of established artistic tendencies and the emergence of new practices in which photographic material expands its subject matter and claims the role of a text that problematizes (thematizes) the represented reality. The development of art-photography at the third stage (2000s to the present) is determined by two main factors: the processes of digitalization and oscillation of contemporary culture and art, which leads to the transformation of the “mode of truth” of the photographic image and the strengthening of the importance of the aesthetics of the individual photographic frame. At the level of practice, this is expressed in the creation of photographic pictures where reality and fantasy images merge into a single whole and become indistinguishable. This effect was reinforced by printing photographs of enormous size and exhibiting them in museum spaces and galleries. Nowadays, art-photography, while remaining a form of contemporary art, seeks to go beyond it and acquire signs of aesthetic self-sufficiency.

DETERMİNANTLAR VƏ CÜMLƏ ÜZVLƏRİNİN QARŞILIQLI ƏLAQƏSİNƏ DAİR

On the Relationship of Determinants and Parts of Sentences Summary In order for the language to carry out any kind of communication, all the links of the syntax that make up the structure of the language must be in place. The syntactic system of the language is made up of word combinations, sentences and text. Syntactic units in the language are connected with each other by meaning and grammatical relations and form the structural regularity of syntactic units, its regulator. As in every world language, the syntactic structure of the modern Oghuz Turkic languages consists of an ordered system of syntactic units. In this ordered system, the determinants have their own place and position along with word combinations, sentence parts, sentences and text. Key words: determiner, sentence, syntax, adverb, verb

CONCEPT AS AN INTERPRETER OF MEANINGS

The article considers the concept as a category that unites fundamental knowledge about the world and plays an important role in understanding the world, thinking, and communication. The existing approaches to its definition are described. Two main approaches are distinguished: the cultural approach proposed by Y.S. Stepanov, which considers the concept as a culturally specific way of organizing knowledge and experience, reflecting the values, beliefs, and assumptions of a particular society, and the semantic approach developed in the school of Arutyunova N.D., where concepts are understood as units of cognitive semantics, closely related to the meanings of words and word combinations.
