Implementation of the process of speaking is impossible without communication, that is, the sequence of transmission and reception of information. Approximately half of the doctor's working time is ...spent on meetings, telephone conversations, communication with patients and colleagues. The ability to speak is his professional duty. A doctor, who knows how to speak creates the impression of an expert in his field, inspires trust in patients, which is a guarantee of successful treatment results.
A high level of development of professional communication skills will largely determine the effectiveness of a doctor's work, his ability to logically and reasonably express his opinions, establish relationships with colleagues, and create a positive social and psychological microclimate in the team. At the same time, mistakes made in professional communication can hinder the effective performance of a doctor's duties and negatively affect his career. The basis of conflicts that reduce the creative potential of medical personnel is a low level of communicative competence caused by the lack of knowledge about communication and the corresponding communicative skills.
The main goal of this work is a comprehensive consideration of the linguistic and communicative aspect of the professional communication of doctors. The methods of work involve the study of the mentioned phenomenon of linguistic and communicative skills of doctors, systematization, and correction of the acquired knowledge.
Abstract

The problems of fusion of location information from ...on-board monitoring systems of various types of functioning are considered. The motivation of integrating optical and radar images of the earth’s surface is shown. The result of the work is the synthesis of optical and radar images of the earth’s surface into a single information field.
Despite the war in Ukraine, medicine remained one of the most popular specialties for this year's applicants. Ukrainian universities should work more actively on the development of innovative ...solutions in the field of digitization of education, the combination of mixed and modern virtual education with academic mobility. The educational space is characterized by an increase in socio-cultural complexity, the consequence of which is the complication of relations between both Ukrainian and foreign students. With this in mind, the strategic tasks of higher education in Ukraine are the formation of multicultural relationships in the student body, since almost all student groups are multicultural.
The main goal of this work is to determine the features of training foreign medical students in the multicultural environment at medical higher educational institutions.
The main issue today is the problem of dialogue between cultures in a multicultural environment. The importance of this question is undeniable, since the dialogue is oriented towards the future and involves deep knowledge of the spiritual structure and intellectual system of the society with which the dialogue is carried out.
Multicultural education is a process of preparing individuals for social, political and economic realities in which they gain their life experience, and as a result, the individual develops his ability to perceive a multicultural environment. One of the key principles of multicultural education and upbringing is the principle of tolerance.
The foreign students education process efficacy in the created multicultural environment will be facilitated by the development of skills and interpersonal communication skills. The authors concluded that foreign students’ preparation for interpersonal communication will be hindered by organizing of their creative activity by means of interactive technologies.
The development of creative abilities can be ensured through the use of interactive learning tools: solving practical medical problems, solving conflict situations with patients or colleagues, role-playing, business games, applying the project method, developing associative thinking, creative independent work. The teacher should offer students of higher education a variety of individual tasks and situations, because the more actively future doctors perform them, the better their creative abilities develop.
Thus, the process of multicultural education is aimed at forming socially and professionally important qualities of an individual, at creating and expanding the circle of his relations to society, to people in the surrounding world, to himself.
In view of the foregoing, we conclude that the creation of a multicultural environment in a medical institution of higher education is a necessary condition for the training of foreign students in interpersonal communication.
We see the prospect of further research in defining the essence of the concept of “multicultural environment of a medical institution of higher education” and clarifying the peculiarities of training foreign students - future doctors - for interpersonal communication in this environment.
Aim
. To study the relationship between parameters of the impulsivity – reflexivity cognitive style and the level of Internet addiction among high school students.
Materials and methods
. 154 ...students from general education institutions aged 16–17 years were diagnosed using the J. Kagan’s reflection – impulsivity test and the Chen Internet Addiction Scale. The one-way analysis of variance was used, followed by post-hoc pairwise comparisons using the Tukey’s test.
Results
. An inverse relationship between the level of Internet addiction and decision latency in a multiple-choice situation and a direct relationship between the level of Internet addiction and the number of errors in the J. Kagan’s reflection – impulsivity test were revealed.
Conclusion
. High school students with propensity to Internet addiction tend to have the impulsive cognitive style, while students without such a tendency – the reflective style. In cognitive activity, the impulsive cognitive style is generally less productive than the reflexive one. The impulsive cognitive style is similar to the so-called clip thinking, which allows to consider the relationship between Internet addiction and this phenomenon through the prism of cognitive and style features.
The possibility of creating a biofuel cell based on a metal stent was shown in this study. Given the existing stent implantation approaches, the integration of a biofuel cell into a stent naturally ...entails capacity for biofuel cells to be installed into a human body. As a counter electrode, a hydrogel based on iota-carrageenan, polyvinyl alcohol, and PEDOT:PSS, with an immobilized glucose oxidase enzyme, was proposed. Tension tests demonstrated that the hydrogel mechanical behavior resembles that of a bovine's vein. To obtain an analytical description, the deformation curves were fitted using Gent and Ogden models, prompting the fitting parameters which can be useful in further investigations. During cyclic biaxial studies the samples strength was shown to decreases insignificantly in the first 50 cycles and, further, remains stable up to more than 100 cycles. The biofuel cell was designed with the PEDOT:PSS based material as an anode and a Co–Cr self-expanding stent as a cathode. The maximum biofuel cell power density with a glucose concentration of 5 mM was 7.87 × 10−5 W in phosphate buffer and 3.98 × 10−5 W in blood mimicking buffer. Thus, the biofuel cell integration in the self-expanding stent was demonstrated.

The 3D reconstruction of 100 μm- and 600 μm-thick fibrous poly-L/L-lactide scaffolds was performed by confocal laser scanning microscopy and supported by scanning electron microscopy and showed that ...the density of the fibers on the side adjacent to the electrode is higher, which can affect cell diffusion, while the pore size is generally the same. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells cultured in a 600 μm-thick scaffold formed colonies and produced conditions for cell differentiation. An in vitro study of stem cells after 7 days revealed that cell proliferation and hepatocyte growth factor release in the 600 μm-thick scaffold were higher than in the 100 μm-thick scaffold. An in vivo study of scaffolds with and without stem cells implanted subcutaneously onto the backs of recipient mice was carried out to test their biodegradation and biocompatibility over a 0–3-week period. The cells seeded onto the 600 μm-thick scaffold promoted significant neovascularization in vivo. After 3 weeks, a significant number of donor cells persisted only on the inside of the 600 μm-thick scaffold. Thus, the use of bulkier matrices allows to prolong the effect of secretion of growth factors by stem cells during implantation. These 600 μm-thick scaffolds could potentially be utilized to repair and regenerate injuries with stem cell co-culture for vascularization of implant.
CO2 hydrogenation to methanol is an important process that could solve the problem of emitted CO2 that contributes to environmental concern. Here we developed Cr-, Cr-Zn-, and Cr-Ni-containing ...nanocomposites based on a solid support (SiO2 or Al2O3) with embedded magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) and covered by a cross-linked pyridylphenylene polymer layer. The decomposition of Cr, Zn, and Ni precursors in the presence of supports containing magnetic oxide led to formation of amorphous metal oxides evenly distributed over the support-polymer space, together with the partial diffusion of metal species into magnetic NPs. We demonstrated the catalytic activity of Cr2O3 in the hydrogenation reaction of CO2 to methanol, which was further increased by 50% and 204% by incorporation of Ni and Zn species, respectively. The fine intermixing of metal species ensures an enhanced methanol productivity. Careful adjustment of constituent elements, e.g., catalytic metal, type of support, presence of magnetic NPs, and deposition of hydrophobic polymer layer contributes to the synergetic promotional effect required for activation of CO2 molecules as well. The results of catalytic recycle experiments revealed excellent stability of the catalysts due to protective role of hydrophobic polymer.
Endothelial dysfunction is among the major triggers of cardiovascular disease, also promoting thrombosis, restenosis, and neoatherosclerosis within the conduit and coronary artery upon the coronary ...artery bypass graft surgery. To recapitulate the paracrine interactions between arterial and venous endothelial cells (ECs) by cross-addition of the conditioned medium to the respective cell cultures. Conditioned (24 hours) serum-free medium from confluent primary human coronary artery ECs (HCAEC), primary human internal thoracic artery ECs (HITAEC) and primary human saphenous vein ECs (HSaVEC) was added to a confluent monolayer of intact HCAEC, HITAEC, and HSaVEC for another 24 hours. Cellular response has been assessed by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Gene expression analysis showed that HITAEC-conditioned medium ameliorated inflammatory response in HCAEC, in contrast to HSaVEC-conditioned medium. In turn, HCAEC-conditioned medium maintained the endothelial phenotype of HITAEC. Further, HCAEC- and HITAEC-conditioned medium stimulated release of pro-angiogenic molecules by intact HCAEC and HSaVEC cultures. HSaVEC-conditioned medium notably reduced the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 in all cell cultures.
Conclusions
: Paracrine interactions between HITAEC and HCAEC govern their anti-inflammatory status and enhance HCAEC angiogenic potential, partially explaining the higher primary patency of arterial conduits and resistance of coronary artery to thrombosis, restenosis and neoatherosclerosis in the long-term period after total arterial revascularisation.
The effects of mobile communications on the population, primarily on children and adolescents as the cohort most vulnerable to any environmental factors, dictates the need for a thorough ...investigation into the impact of radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF EMF) on the central nervous system (CNS) as the main target of their action. In this regard, the analysis of experimental data as an indirect assessment of possible negative changes in the body of young animals under the influence of RF EMF, including 5G and Wi-Fi, is highly relevant. We performed a systematization of experimental data, which will be presented in two parts: in vitro and in vivo experiments. This article introduces materials indicating both diversity of approaches to studying the effects of RF EMF on the central nervous system and difficulties of systematizing the results of the experiments. The analysis of literature data showed that, despite the numerous studies into the effects of RF EMF in vitro, CNS cell cultures are used rather rarely. However, this paper examines in detail the results of in vitro experiments: changes in the action potential, morphological changes in cells and the myelin sheath, and changes in the permeability of the blood–brain barrier (using cultures of only nerve cells). It was established that, despite some inconsistency in the results obtained, most studies indicate a negative effect of RF EMF on CNS cells. The morphological and histological changes in CNS structures under the influence of RF EMF will be presented in the next part of the review.
