XIII International Conference on Kangaroo Mother Care - Different opinions, experiences and related KMC issues: Good practices, stabilisation concept, nutrition and basic respiratory support.

This study aimed to summarise the views and experiences of the participants in the workshop of the XIII International Conference on Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC). The results of the discussions held during the workshop of the XIII International Conference on KMC were summarised. There were 152 participants from 47 countries. Four main KMC topics were discussed: good practices, immediate implementation, nutrition and basic ventilation. Several agreements were reached, namely that professional societies and governments should develop official recommendations to promote KMC as standard care for preterm and low birth weight infants and that parents should be involved as active caregivers in neonatal care units. Moreover, the criteria for referring community-born infants to KMC require standardisation. Important inequalities in resource availability among high-, middle- and low-income countries were recognised for all topics. Specific needs were identified for parenteral nutrition and fortifiers, nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) and oxygen blenders, which are rarely available in low- and middle-income countries. Immediate implementation of KMC was discussed as a new concept. Its benefits were recognised, but its application has some variability. Adequate preterm care requires a basic neonatal package, including KMC, nCPAP, immediate management protocols and adequate nutrition and feeding strategies. The differences in resources among high-, middle- and low-income countries highlight the wide disparities in neonatal care according to the place of birth.

The Journal “Higher Education in Russia”: 30 Years of Research and Reflection

The round-table discussion dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the journal Vysshee obrazovanie v Rossii (Higher Education in Russia) took place on October 26, 2022 within the framework of XIII International conference of higher education (ICHE). Since its founding, the journal acts as a platform to discuss the urgent issues of higher education. In different periods, the researchers discussed competence-based approach, Bologna process, online education, quality of higher education, educational policy, educational management, assessment of learning outcomes, training of highly skilled researchers and teaching personnel, digitalization of education and many others. Today higher education in Russia is at a turning point of its history. We should impartially evaluate the path traveled, what has been achieved and what are the consequences. A look at the past became the subject of the round-table discussion.

Swirling self-gravitating vortex as the imagination of the Hoag’s ring galaxy

It is shown that based on the concept of a toroidal self-gravitating ring vortex with a swirl (with an orbital motion along the torus generatrix), it is possible to explain all the main morphological features of the famous Hoag ring galaxy, including the still unexplained rotation of the central elliptical galaxy. The astronomical observations can be used, thus, to study complex vortex motions [The article based on the authors’ reports Bannikova et al., XIII International Conference to 100 years of Illia Mikhailovich Lifshitz, Kharkiv, KhNU (2017) and Kontorovich et al., XIV International Science Conference “Physical phenomena in solids”, Kharkiv, KhNU (2019) at the Conferences on condensed matter physics at Kharkiv National University, the first of which was dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the birth of Ilya Mikhailovich Lifshitz, a teacher and friend of Mark Azbel.].

Foreword to the Special Issue on Ground Penetrating Radar: Modeling Tools, Imaging Methods and Systems Concepts

This special issue spreads from the XIII International Conference on Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR2010) held in June 2010 in Lecce, Italy. Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is one of the mostly assessed and exploited technologies for non-destructive subsurface sensing and imaging. As a matter of fact, its flexibility (as far as systems, measurement protocols and processing strategies are concerned) makes it a powerful tool to handle many different observation and sensing applications, ranging from structural monitoring to demining, security and geophysical surveys. Due to the challenging needs arisen by such a widespread application, GPR is an extremely active field for scientific research as indeed efforts aimed at developing new modeling tools, imaging methods and systems concepts can either improve the outcome of GPR surveys or open the way to new, not yet explored, applications. In this respect, this special issue presents a selection of papers that provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the state of the art of research activities carried out on the most relevant and promising trends of development of GPR technology.
