[The impact of the impairment of social cognitive functions in acute stage of stroke on its functional outcomes].

Objective: To analyze the influence of the impairment of social cognitive functions (SCF) in acute phase of ischemic stroke (IS) on its functional outcomes in 6 months.

Material And Methods: One hundred patients with IS were included in the study. The assessment of social-demographic, clinical characteristics and SCF (theory of mind (ToM), affective empathy, social empathy) of the patients on the day 10 after stroke was conducted.

Co and CoO in the Hydrolysis of Boron-Containing Hydrides: HO Activation on the Metal and Oxide Active Centers.

This work focuses on the comparison of H evolution in the hydrolysis of boron-containing hydrides (NaBH, NHBH, and (CHNHBH)) over the Co metal catalyst and the CoO-based catalysts. The CoO catalysts were activated in the reaction medium, and a small amount of CuO was added to activate CoO under the action of weaker reducers (NHBH, (CHNHBH)). The high activity of CoO has been previously associated with its reduced states (nanosized CoB).

[Emotional disorders after stroke].

Emotional disorders are common among patients after stroke. They include anger, fear, emotional expression control (uncontrollable crying, laughing), emotional indifference (apathy), disorders of emotion recognition and emotional empathy. They might develop independently or as a presentation of depression, anxiety, catastrophic reaction, posttraumatic stress disorder etc.

Synthesis of Chlorine- and Nitrogen-Containing Carbon Nanofibers for Water Purification from Chloroaromatic Compounds.

Chlorine- and nitrogen-containing carbon nanofibers (CNFs) were obtained by combined catalytic pyrolysis of trichloroethylene (CHCl) and acetonitrile (CHCN). Their efficiency in the adsorption of 1,2-dichlorobenzene (1,2-) from water has been studied. The synthesis of CNFs was carried out over self-dispersing nickel catalyst at 600 °C.

Recapitulation of the embryonic transcriptional program in holometabolous insect pupae.

Holometabolous insects are predominantly motionless during metamorphosis, when no active feeding is observed and the body is enclosed in a hardened cuticle. These physiological properties as well as undergoing processes resemble embryogenesis, since at the pupal stage organs and systems of the imago are formed. Therefore, recapitulation of the embryonic expression program during metamorphosis could be hypothesized.
