Differentiation of genetic resources of winter triticale by resistance to the causative agent of pink snow mold (Microdochium nivale (Fr.) Samuels and I.C. Hallett)

Pink snow mold, caused by the low-temperature ascomycete Microdochium.nivale (Fr.) Samuels and I.C. Hallett), is a regular occurrence in winter triticale (x Triticosecale, Wittm.). It is the most common and damaging phytopathogen in temperate and cold climates. Field experiments were conducted at the laboratory of winter rye and triticale breeding of the Tatar Scientific Research Institute of Agriculture FRC KazSC of RAS in 2020–2022. The experiments were carried out under both natural and artificial infectious conditions. The samples were screened in the laboratory by infecting detached leaves with the most virulent strain of Microdochium.nivale, F00608. The study focused on 50 hexaploid samples of winter triticale from the N.I. Vavilov VIGRR gene collection. The results demonstrated that the mean disease damage score for winter triticale samples on the artificial infection background was 6.39 ± 1.52, while in natural conditions of infection development, the score was 3.34 ± 0.94. A correlation coefficient of r = -0.708 was observed between snow mold damage on the artificial infectious background and yield. The development of snow mold resulted in a significant loss in yield, amounting to 50.4%. The results of the field studies demonstrated that the majority of winter triticale cultivars were susceptible to pink snow mold. The forms with relatively high levels of field and laboratory resistance were identified. The sources of field resistance to snow mold have been identified as potential candidates for further use in breeding. The varieties Beta 2, Doctrine 110, Capral, Nemchinovsky 56, Bashkirskaya korotkostebelnaya, Tsekad 90 and Altaysky 5 have been identified as resistant to both natural infection and epiphytotic load. The varieties Pyatrus, Kroha, Privada, Gorka, Almaz, Capella, Tribun have demonstrated high resistance to pink snow mold in detached leaves, and are therefore recommended for use in genetic studies.

Comparative legal analysis of income strategies in Ukraine and foreign countries

The article examines the state of regulatory and legal support for the transition of the domestic budget system to European standards of the country’s income generation. Scientific understanding of the formation of the national policy for the formation of state revenues and the implementation of a comparative legal analysis of the existing international and national experience in this area are determined to be necessary. The positions of the formed scientific doctrine regarding the economic and legal basis for the creation of a national strategy of budget revenues are analyzed and it is summarized that the specified process in the conditions of modern global challenges is not sufficiently widely reflected in modern scientific intelligence, which prompts the author team to study individual features of the international legal regulation of the strategy for the formation of budget revenues income An analysis of the National Revenue Strategy until 2030 was carried out and its main prospects were determined: increasing the level of public trust in public administration bodies, increasing the fiscal capacity of Ukraine, adapting tax and customs legislation to EU standards, forming economic incentives for the post-war recovery of our state, etc. It was determined that the basis of income formation in the EU is ensuring the lawful behavior of subjects of financial relations. Prevention of such offenses as fraud in relation to revenues, expenditures and assets of the general budget of the EU, financial transactions related to borrowing and lending. Attention is drawn to the experience of forming a national income strategy in individual EU member states (Germany, France) and Japan. It has been established that with effective legal regulation and an effective implementation mechanism, countries have achieved a high level of tax and budget transparency and minimization of offenses. A perspective for Ukraine, along with the implementation of a number of innovations in the formation and implementation of the budget strategy, is the experience of close cooperation between the scientific community and public administration entities, where an important additional role in the development and implementation of the revenue strategy is played by scientific research institutes, expert councils, scientists who form forecasts of multifaceted development of the state. It is proposed to implement the legislative consolidation in Ukraine of the need for cooperation with research advisory and consulting organizations and scientists-specialists in the formation and implementation of the national budget strategy.

The study was carried out in the laboratory for the processing and certification of antler products of the All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Antler Deer Husbandry Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution FANCA department (the Altai Region) in 2022. The purpose of research is to develop a technology for creating biosubstances from maral raw materials in combination with secondary milk raw materials for adding to fruit and vegetable purees. Objectives: to select the technological parameters for obtaining biosubstances based on secondary raw materials of dairy production and maral raw materials and evaluate the possibility of introducing the obtained biosubstances into fruit and vegetable purees. In a scientific study, the extraction parameters of maral raw materials were selected using the UZTA-1/22-OM Volna-M installation (extraction duration 0–8 hours, temperature 45–50 °C, hydromodule 1 : 10, 1 : 20). As an extractant curd whey, cheese whey and buttermilk were used, enzymes of microbial (Protozymes B and C) and animal origin (SG-50) were added in a complex at a dose of 0.2 % by weight of raw materials. In the course of research, the most effective method for processing maral raw materials was determined, which ensures the maximum yield of dry substances from maral antlers – 10.85 %. The production process of the ingredient from maral antlers based on cheese whey included a ratio of components of 1 : 10 using 0.2 % of Protozyme B and C enzymes for two hours of ultrasonic extraction. The process of obtaining an ingredient from maral meat with a solids yield of 13.66 % included ultrasonic extraction, the extractant of which was buttermilk at a ratio of 1 : 10 with the addition of Protozyme B and C enzymes for 6 hours. The addition of two ingredients to the fruit and vegetable mashed mass of pumpkin with sea buckthorn in the amount of 1.0 % made it possible to obtain the highest organoleptic assessment of the respondents – 4.6 points.

The brain in Spain: The legacy of Santiago Ramón y Cajal.

The legacy of Santiago Ramón y Cajal, Spain's first Nobel laureate neuroscientist recognized as the founding father of modern neuroscience, is to be preserved in a new museum in Madrid: the National Museum of Natural Sciences (MNCN), one of the most important scientific research institutes in the country sciences in the scope of natural sciences of the Spanish National Research Council. For a boy who dreamed of being an artist but started his career apprenticed to first a barber and then a cobbler, Santiago Ramón y Cajal made a distinguished mark in science. One of Cajal's most important contributions to our understanding of the brain was his discovery of the direction of the information flow within neurons and in neural circuits, which he called the "dynamic polarization law," without a doubt the founding principle of neurosciences. The exposition planned by the MNCN is a perfect occasion to show the academy and, it is hoped, the general public at large the beautiful organization of the nervous system as first acknowledged by modern science. With the highly motivated organizers of this well-planned initiative, neuroscientists at the Cajal Institute are confident that this sample of the Cajal legacy will also be taken as an esthetic experience for those who approach it for the first time. It might be that science and art often go together.

SUBSIDIARY INSTITUTIONS OF AN ECONOMIC NATURE IN ALGERIA: FROM CONCEPT TO REALITY BECHAR UNIVERSITY IS A MODEL

Objectives: The study aims to explore the legal dimension of the concept of subsidiary institutions with an economic nature and the extent to which this is implemented within Algerian higher education and scientific research institutions. It also examines their ability to transform intellectual output into marketable products. Theoretical Framework: A study on how to establish subsidiary institutions with an economic nature in general and the extent of its impact on the University of Béchar in particular. Methods: The descriptive-analytical approach was utilized to study subsidiary institutions with an economic nature in general, and the case study method was employed to examine their affiliated subsidiaries in particular. Results and Discussion: The research results indicate that the concept of subsidiary institutions with an economic nature aligns with the economic reforms experienced by Algerian institutions, particularly higher education and scientific research institutions. The legal form of these subsidiaries has been identified as either a limited liability company, a joint-stock company, or a simple partnership. This classification aims to provide a new impetus for subsidiary institutions and encourage innovation among creators. Research Implication: - The need to enrich the concept of subsidiary institutions with an economic nature through a set of legislative and regulatory texts to provide greater clarity. - The necessity for the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research to offer administrative and financial facilitation to generalize the concept of subsidiary institutions across all its affiliated institutions. - Encouraging most professors and researchers at the University of Béchar to contribute to the establishment of subsidiary institutions to enhance and advance their role both locally and nationally. Originality/Value: Despite the precedence of the legal framework for the concept of subsidiary institutions with an economic nature, their application is relatively recent, emerging only in the last few decades.

For sterilization of the test solution, the use of a vacuum filtration through membrane filters with a nominal pore diameter of 0.22 μm is promising.

Pharmaceutical development of sangviritrin spray for the treatment of inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity

Introduction. One of the most common bacterial infections includes acute and chronic tonsillitis, affecting 10 to 15 % of adults and approximately 20–25 % of children worldwide, according to the World Health Organization. The focus of this study was an original substance, sangviritrin, containing no less than 96.5 % of the sum of bisulfates of two alkaloids: sanguinarine and chelerythrine. Given the high antimicrobial activity of sangviritrin, the research aimed to develop a local delivery system based on this medicinal substance.Aim. The aim of this work was to develop an oral medicinal form of sangviritrin.Materials and Methods. Sangviritrin, produced by the All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants, was used as the active pharmaceutical ingredient. The selection of auxiliary components was carried out in accordance with the methodologies specified in the State Pharmacopoeia XV edition. The organoleptic properties of the substance and spray samples were studied using A. I. Tenzova's method. The local irritant action of the spray was assessed using the conjunctival test method on chinchilla rabbits weighing 3.5–4.3 kg. Quantitative determination of sangviritrin in the medicinal form was performed using spectrophotometric methods at a wavelength of 321 ± 2 nm on a spectrophotometer SPECORD® 200 PLUS (Analytik Jena GmbH+Co. KG, Germany).Results and Discussion. Optimal auxiliary component compositions were selected based on measurements of spray technological parameters. A comprehensive approach was justified for correcting the organoleptic properties of the substance, involving the introduction of a minimal amount of sweeteners and additional use of β-cyclodextrin. Examination of the local irritant action indicated a "weak or absent" degree of local irritation.Conclusion. A local delivery system for sangviritrin has been developed for the treatment of infectious and inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity.

Performance Evaluation of University-Based Scientific Research Institutions With a Non-Independent Parallel System.

Performance management in university-based scientific research institutions is essential for driving reform, advancing education quality, and fostering innovation. However, current performance evaluation models often focus solely on research indicators, neglecting the critical interdependence between the education and research systems. This oversight leads to inefficiencies in resource allocation and an underestimation of overall institutional performance, particularly in universities with varying development levels. To address these deficiencies, this study introduces two innovative two-stage data envelopment analysis models: the group-frontier and meta-frontier evaluation models. The findings are validated using data from 144 universities across China. They demonstrate that the proposed models effectively mitigate the underestimation of efficiency in traditional models and accurately reflect the intertwined nature of university subsystems and the disparities in university development. These results offer valuable insights for improving the performance of scientific research institutions and informing the strategic decisions of university administrators and government education departments.

The correlation between important farm indicators in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) samples

The article indicates the correlation relations between different important farm indicators of the potato and eggplant sort samples of different geographical origin. The leaf surface area, the amount of the chlorophyll in the leaves, the dry biomass and dry substance were determined in the potato and eggplant sort samples. The correlation relations between various important farm indicators of 20 potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) and 59 eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) collection samples cultivated in the Absheron auxiliary experimental farm of the Vegetable Scientific-Research Institute were studied and it was shown that there are exact relations which are the dense according to the Cheddock scale at the p≥0.05% level between these indicators. In potato, the relations between leaf surface area–PP (0.922), leaf surface area–chlorophyll (0.911), leaf surface area–productivity (0.672), chlorophyll–PP (0.872), PP–productivity (0.611), chlorophyll-SSDL (-0.812), PP-SSDL (-0.818), leaf surface area-SSDL (-0.829), and in eggplant, (0.442-0.838) - leaf surface area-PP (0.838), leafsurface area-wet biomass (0.672), leaf surface area-dry biomass (0.612), PP-productivity (0.465), PP-wet biomass (0.455) and leaf surface area-productivity (0.442) can be belonged such relations (0.611-0.922) that can be used successfully in the selection which will be carried out in future according to the productivity, quality and adaptability.

외국인 접촉과 범죄 피해 두려움과의 관계

Notwithstanding the considerable rise in the number of foreign nationals residing in South Korea, xenophobic attitudes towards foreigners remain pervasive in the country. These prejudices and associated misconceptions and stereotypes not only impede social integration but also engender unwarranted fear. However, there is a paucity of research examining the relationship between prejudice-related factors and fear of crime victimization in Korea. This study aimed to ascertain whether the frequency of actual contact with foreigners reduces fear of crime victimization. This was done in order to test Allport's (1954) contact theory, which states that prejudice and negative attitudes toward other groups decrease as contact with them increases. A total of 463 respondents were analyzed in the secondary data downloaded from the Social Science Research Institute's “Survey on Perceptions of Changes in Criminal Policies Related to Multiculturalism.” The results indicated a significant correlation between the frequency of foreign contact and fear of crime victimization. However, contrary to what contact theory suggests, the more frequent the foreign contact, the greater the fear of crime victimization. Furthermore, gender and age group had a significant effect on fear of crime victimization, but average monthly personal income had no effect. This paper provides an interpretation of the results, discusses the need to develop multicultural policies to reduce fear of crime victimization, and presents policy recommendations based on the results.

Проблема впливу глобальної зміни клімату на розвиток аграрної галузі в Україні: історичний екскурс

The purpose of the work is to reveal specific issues of climate change, their impact on the development and management of agriculture in Ukraine, caused by intense warming: uneven distribution of precipitation; the increase in the number and intensity of extreme weather phenomena - droughts (droughts), dry spells, etc., as well as the scientific development of Ukrainian scientists in developing the problem. Methodology. The specified historical research is based on the use of general scientific principles of objectivity, systematicity, historicism, comprehensiveness. The subject-chronological and comparative-historical methods used by us are of great importance and their synthetic role in reflecting the progressive development of knowledge about climate change and finding ways to prevent negative effects on agricultural plants. The comparative-historical method contributed to the selection and characterization of the peculiarities of the accumulation of knowledge about extreme climatic phenomena, their development within the climatic zones of Ukraine. By analyzing the scientific work of scientists, the process of overcoming current problems, implementing new scientific developments into practice is traced. The scientific novelty consists in the generalization of the scientific achievements of scientific research institutions of Ukraine on the study of the nature of global climatic phenomena, their influence on the development of agricultural production in different soil and climatic zones of the country through the ways of overcoming crisis phenomena proposed by Ukrainian scientists. For the first time, the works of the outstanding scientist-agriculturalist A. O. Babich of the late 90s and early decades of the 20th century on the problem of global climate change became the object of a separate scientific study. Conclusions. In conclusion, we note that further global and regional climate warming can cause irreversible climate changes with a violation of the climatic balance, and the consequences of dangerous natural hydrometeorological phenomena can become catastrophic, which can lead to changes in the conditions of human life. As the analysis showed, droughts are exacerbated by high plowing of agricultural land, non-compliance with the soil protection system of land cultivation, weak development of moisture-saving technologies and drought-resistant crops and varieties. The industry of crop production is most affected by the adverse factors of drought, dry spells and dust storms, which are often characterized by unpredictability both in terms of their manifestations and the force of their impact on crops. In order to conduct agricultural production, there is a need to review the structure of sown areas by climatic zones of Ukraine, to include in the range of growing adapted to the phenomena of dehydration and prolonged overheating during the hot period and drought, the newest adapted varieties of plants. The efforts of agrarian science and production should be directed not to the exhaustion of natural forces, but to the neutralization and weakening of the effect of droughts and dry spells by a system of measures, including the results of the latest research in meteorology, agriculture and crop production.

Assessment of the Radiation Dose to Biota and Humans During the Discharge of Iodine by Radiopharmaceutical Production

During the production activities of radiopharmaceutical enterprises, the discharge of technogenic ¹³¹I is carried out. On the example L.Ya. Karpov Scientific Research Institute of Physics and Chemistry (Obninsk), a method for assessing the radioecological situation around the enterprise in long-term dynamics is shown by determining the content of radionuclide in the components of the natural environment, as well as dose loads on biota and humans. A model assessment of the average annual volume activity of a radionuclide based on a Gaussian model of scattering and transport of impurities in the atmosphere, allowing to determine it at any point of the terrain, has been performed. It was determined that the dose loads on biota varied from 0.5 µGy/d (for bees) to 8.7 µGy/d (for earthworms) and were significantly lower than environmentally safe exposure levels (100000 and 10000 µGy/d, respectively). Adult radiation doses ranged from 0.5 µSv/year to 1.3 µSv/year, which doesn’t exceed the quota of the Karpov Scientific Research Institute dose limit 300 µSv/year. The necessity of taking into account both the molecular and aerosol forms of ¹³¹I in the assessment of the radioecological situation in order to prevent underestimation of the dose load by up to two times is emphasized. The obtained assessments of the radioecological situation around the Karpov Scientific Research Institute in 2015-2021 indicate the absence of negative radiation and environmental effects on humans and their environment. The assessment algorithm can be applied to other enterprises producing radioactive iodine discharges.

Religiosity and Scientificity: The Transformation of Missionary Anthropology in the West China Border Research Society (1922–1950)

Religiosity and scientificity have long been intertwined in missionary anthropology. Since the 20th century, there has been a shift from religious missionary anthropology to scientific anthropology worldwide. Reviewing published materials and archives, this paper provides a case study of this transformation. It focuses on how the foreign missionary-founded West China Border Research Society transformed from a relatively closed and fixed local Christian academic research institution into a more open, international, and purely scientific research institution disciplined by Christian rationality. It sheds some new light into the Society’s roles and its transformation process. Contrary to the views of many scholars who assert that the Society “died” in 1937 and subsequently engaged in China’s state service and nation-building efforts, we contend that after 1937, the Society sought greater independence and a more scientific approach. Christianity dominated the Society in the early stages after its inception in 1922 in Chengdu, China, and its research results could not be objective or scientific. Although the Society later became more open and globalized, missionary anthropologists still mainly controlled it. After 1937, missionary anthropologists returned to religious rationality under the pressure of being connected to global academia. The Society eventually adopted “salvage anthropology” and tried to develop into a scientific research institution aimed at objective recording, while this somewhat rigid research approach also disciplined and suppressed the nationalist research orientation of Chinese colleagues and scholars. In response, Chinese researchers established other institutions and journals with stronger nationalism and undertook the “border construction work” that the Society could not accomplish.

A005: Progress in Sports Rehabilitation for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis has become the third leading "killer" of the health of Chinese adolescents, following obesity and myopia. Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine, usually characterized by a lateral curvature of the spine accompanied by rotation. The diagnostic criterion is a Cobb angle greater than 10 degrees on X-ray. With the promotion of the concept of "exercise is good medicine" and the Healthy China strategy, exercise therapy has received attention and development. Purpose: To summarize different sports rehabilitation methods for adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis worldwide with the hope to raise awareness of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and explore sports rehabilitation methods. This will facilitate physical therapists in incorporating effective methods into their practice to improve the new sports rehabilitation methods for adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. Methods: Comparative analysis of current exercise rehabilitation methods for scoliosis using literature review and logical analysis. Results: The main sports rehabilitation treatment for idiopathic scoliosis in China is the traditional rehabilitation treatment of Chinese medicine (including Chinese massage, Chinese bone-setting technique, and traditional health exercises), the scoliosis specific exercise therapy recognized by the SOSORT (Germany Schroth therapy, Spain BSPTS therapy, Poland DoboMed therapy, UK Side shift therapy, France Lyon therapy, Italy SEAS therapy, Poland FITS therapy); There are also methods that are not classified but play a positive role in the treatment of scoliosis, such as yoga, traction therapy, core stability training and other exercise therapy methods. Different exercise therapies have their own advantages and disadvantages and indications in the treatment of scoliosis. It is probable that exercise therapy has positive effects on the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Conclusion: Although currently there are multiple sports rehabilitation methods, no single exercise can completely correct scoliosis. At present, multiple exercise therapy is used in the clinical treatment of scoliosis, but there’s insufficient medical evidence for the correlation, principle and efficacy of the method. In the future, with the development of sports medicine and technological advancements, exercise therapy may be more widely applied in the treatment of scoliosis, aiming to improve the rehabilitation effect and patient quality of life. It is necessary for relevant scientific research institutions and personnel to increase the research investment and innovation of relevant treatment methods, and more studies are needed to further explore the mechanism of effect of exercise.

ON THE ISSUE OF RADON EXPOSURE IN THE EXISTING RADIATION SITUATION AT WORKPLACES.

assessment of probable exposure levels from radon and NORM in workplaces within the context of justi fying radiation protection plans in an existing exposure situation. Materials regarding the assessment of naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) con tent in tailing from mining and processing industries in Ukraine and assessments of contamination levels of industri al sites of oil and gas enterprises were used for estimating the probable range of effective doses (ED) of workers fromNORM at industrial enterprises. These materials were obtained as a result of research conducted by specialists from theRadiation Protection Laboratory of the State Institution «O.M. Marzіeiev Institute for Public Health of the NationalAcademy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine» (RP SI «IPH NAMSU»). The results of studies conducted by the StateInstitution «Ukrainian Scientific Research Institute of Industrial Medicine» (SI «UKRMEDPROM») were used for calcu lating the EDs of iron ore miners. Calculations of probable EDs of industrial enterprise workers were carried out usingmethodologies and recommendations from publications of the IAEA related to occupational exposure. Assessments ofexposure levels for office workers were based on measurements of indoor radon concentrations of first-floor premisesin multi-story buildings of industrial urban development from the laboratory's own databases. Radon measurements inindoor air were conducted using passive track etch radon detectors with an exposure time of at least 30 days.Calculations of EDs for office workers were carried out using dose coefficients and mathematical models from the ICRP. When workers are exposed to radon as a result of the technological process, radiation exposure is limitedby dose criteria. Using non-uranium miners as an example, it was shown that effective doses (ED) due to gammaradiation varied within a narrow range, ranging from 0.2 to 0.4 mSv/year, and were on average an order of magnitudelower than the radon component of the total ED for the two groups of mines, which amounted to 2.0-14.0 mSv/yearfor the Northern group and 0.3-0.8 mSv/year for the Southern group. For three underground worker specialties, radi ation EDs could potentially exceed the reference level of 6 mSv/year and fall under regulatory control. Potentialradiation EDs for workers at one of the Ukrainian oil fields were generally not significant (<0.1-1 mSv/year), exceptfor areas where used pipe storage and sludge settlers were located (70.0 mSv/year; 28.0 mSv/year at a distance of10 meters), near which dose limits for Category A personnel (6 mSv/year), falling under regulatory control, wereexceeded. Radon exposure in workplaces also includes the presence of workers in regular office premises on the firstfloors of multi-story buildings, where the main source of radon entry into the air is the underlying soil. For the mostresearched regions of Ukraine (~1200 measurements of radon activity concentrations in first-floor premises), it wasfound that the reference level of 300 Bq/m3 is exceeded in 0.2-0.5% of cases in certain regions, indicating thatpotentially the reference level may be exceeded in tens of thousands of premises. A differentiated approach is justified for assessing the hazards of workplaces, allowing for optimizingradiation protection for workers at a reasonable cost and saving significant resources for enterprises. Effective doses(ED) of radiation for workers at enterprises where radon is an integral part of the technological process vary widelyand can differ by an order of magnitude even within the same enterprise. Reference levels of 300 Bq/m3 may beexceeded in tens of thousands of office premises, and only through direct measurements of radon activity concen trations in building air can such premises be identified.

Evolutionary Game Analysis of New Energy Transition Among Government, Traditional Automobile Enterprises, and Research Institutions Under the Dual Carbon Goals

This paper delves into the evolutionary dynamics of dynamic games among governments, traditional automotive enterprises, and scientific research institutions during the new energy transition process by establishing a stochastic evolutionary game model. The research focuses on exploring the conditions for the formation of system stability and the key factors influencing strategic choices. MATLAB R2021a software is employed to simulate the game process, visually demonstrating the dynamic changes in the behaviors of each participant. The results indicate that research and development (R&amp;D) costs are a crucial consideration for scientific research institutions when deciding whether to collaborate with traditional automotive enterprises. Traditional automotive enterprises exhibit significantly higher sensitivity to government incentives for cooperation than to potential penalties for non-cooperation. Furthermore, an increase in government support costs notably dampens its enthusiasm for promoting the development of the new energy transition. Reducing government support costs and R&amp;D costs for scientific research institutions, as well as enhancing rewards for cooperative behavior and penalties for non-cooperative behavior, can effectively facilitate the formation of evolutionarily stable strategies among governments, traditional automotive enterprises, and scientific research institutions.

Assessment of the clinical condition and prediction of outcomes in newborns from the neonatal near miss group using the CАSPn, TRIPS and CRIB scales

Objective: to conduct a comparative characterization of neonatal scales used in assessing severity of condition and predicting outcomes in newborn infants.Materials and methods: the study included 70 newborns born in 2021 until 2022 at the Federal State Budgetary Institution “Ural Scientific Research Institute for Maternal and Child Care”. Depending on gestational age, 3 groups were formed: group 1 included newborns gestational age 23–29.6 weeks (n=24); group 2 included children aged 30–36.6 weeks (n=29) and group 3 included full-term newborns aged 37–40 weeks (n=17).Results: according to the clinical scale for assessing premature newborns, it was revealed that in group 1, in 45.8% of cases, the condition of newborns who scored the highest number of points was assessed as extremely severe and unstable. Mortality in this cohort of children was 36.3%. According to the Transport Index of Physiological Stability scale, the maximum number of points was recorded in 12.5% of premature newborns from group 1, whose condition was assessed as extremely severe and unstable, but no death was detected in this subgroup. According to the clinical risk index for young children, a lethal outcome was detected in 66.7% of cases in the 1st group in newborns with 7–9 points, while in the 3rd group, a lethal outcome was detected among newborns who scored 4–6 points.Conclusions: currently, the task of creating a universal scale for assessing not only the severity and stability of the condition of newborns, but also predicting adverse outcomes remains urgent.
