    Evaluation of awareness about primary immunodeficiencies among physicians before and after implementation of the educational program: A longitudinal study [electronic resource]
    (2020) Hariyan, Tetyana; Kinash, Maria; Kovalenko, Roman; Boyarchuk, Oksana
    Increasing physicians’ awareness is one of the main ways to improve early diagnosis of rare diseases. A survey among physicians of different specialties to evaluate the knowledge about primary immunodeficiencies (PID) was conducted in 2016 and in 2019 –before and after the implementation of an educational program. We compare responses from 82 doctors who participated in the 2016 survey, and 67 doctors who have taken part in the survey in 2019: pediatricians, general practitioners / family physicians and physicians of pediatric sub specialties. The percentage of correct answers to all survey questions after the implementation of the educational program has significantly increased (79.0% in 2019 versus 58.3% in 2016, P<0.0001). This increase in the percentage of correct answers was noted among the surveyed doctors of all specialties. Particular progress was found among pediatricians, who have achieved more than 80% of correct answers. In 2019 the doctors demonstrated better knowledge on the warning signs of PID and specific features of Nijmegen breakage syndrome, DiGeorge syndrome and ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome. Thus, the implementation of an educational program improved physicians’ awareness of PIDs, and will contribute to early detection of PIDs and their medical care.

    More evidence or stronger political will: exploring the feasibility of needle and syringe programs in Ukrainian prisons [electronic resourse]
    (2021) Dmitrieva, Alexandra; Stepanov, Vladimir; Svyrydova, Kateryna; Lukash, Ievgeniia Galyna; Doltu, Svetlana; Golichenko, Mikhail; Kalivoshko, Valeriy; Khanyukov, Evgeniy; Kosmukhamedova, Zhannat; Torkunov, Oleh; Zagrebelnyi, Oleksii
    Introduction: In 2007, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended for prison authorities to introduce prison needle and syringe programs (PNSP) if they have any evidence that injecting drug use is taking place in prisons. This article presents descriptive evidence that injecting drug use takes place in Ukrainian prisons, it discusses how (denial of ) access to injection equipment is regulated in the current system and what changes should be considered in order to implement PNSP. Background: Ukrainian prisons still live by the laws and policies adopted in the Soviet Union. Besides laws and regulations, these legacies are replicated through the organization and infrastructure of the prison’s physical space, and through "carceral collectivism" as a specific form of living and behaving. Inviolability of the prison order over time helps the prison staff to normalize and routinely rationalize punishment enforcement as a power "over" prisoners, but not a power "for" achieving a specific goal. Methods: The Participatory Action Research approach was used as a way of involving different actors in the study’s working group and research process. The data were gathered through 160 semi-structured interviews with prison health care workers, guards, people who inject drugs (PWID) who served one or several terms and other informants. Results: The "expertise" in drug use among prisoners demonstrated by prison staff tells us two things—they admit that injecting use takes place in prisons, and that the surveillance of prisoner behavior has been carried out constantly since the very beginning as a core function of control. The communal living conditions and prison collectivism may not only produce and reproduce a criminal subculture but, using the same mechanisms, produce and reproduce drug use in prison. The "political will" incorporated into prison laws and policies is essential for the revision of outdated legacies and making PNSP implementation feasible. Conclusion: PNSP implementation is not just a question of having evidence of injecting drug use in the hands of prison authorities. For PNSP to be feasible in the prison environment, there is a need for specific changes to transition from one historical period and political leadership to another. And, thus, to make PNSP work requires making power work for change, and not just for reproducing the power itself.

    The Role Of The Media In Intercultural Dialogue
    (2016) Iemelianenko, Mania
    The article explores the place of communication as an integral part of any culture. Communication is carried out through sign systems and is necessary for the preservation and transfer of accumulated social experience. Communication can take the form of imitation, management and dialogue, all of it depends on the purpose of the interaction, the nature of the information and the specific communicative situation. The modem socio-cultural situation is characterized by a significantly increased importance of information, communication, intensification of intercultural contacts. The social, political and economic changes that have taken place in recent years, as well as the rapid media development, have led to the fact that more and more people have crossed the cultural barriers that separated them and entered into a process of interaction with representatives of other cultures.
