INTRODUCTION. Low back pain (LBP) is a common discomfort in young women during pregnancy and after childbirth. These female patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH) have unique clinical manifestations, but few studies have been reported. AIM. To investigate the clinical characteristics of female patients with LDH after childbirth and to provide basis for rehabilitation andtreatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS. We collected the clinical data of 58 female patients with LDH, analyzed the clinical characteristics. We usedCT scan to determine the location and type of LDH, observed the dural sac of lumbar intervertebral disc, serum 25 hydroxyvitaminD (25[OH] D) levels were measured and compared with healthy women and pregnant women. RESULTS. Our results showed that according to the age distribution of patients with low back pain was the most common among 30-34years old, accounting for 43.1% of all patients. Patients with LDH accounted for the highest proportion of patients with LBP, up to 55.2%.L4-L5 segment was the most common part of LDH, accounting for 46.9%, followed by L5-S1 segment, accounting for 31.3%. Protrusionwas the most common type of LDH, accounting for 84.4%. Among 34 patients with LDH, 15 patients (46.9%) had dural sac compression.The serum 25(OH) D level of patients with LDH was 11.36±5.16 ng/ml, lower than that of healthy women (first control group, 15.22±3.42ng/ml, p=0.022), and pregnant women (second control group, 18.95±6.94 ng/ml, p

Purpose. The article is devoted to the study of the functioning of the names of the seasons in Russian poetry of the XX–XXI centuries. The relevance of this work is due to the insufficient elaboration of a number of issues concerning the aesthetic potential of linguistic units, including temporal lexemes denoting the seasons, as well as the need to describe them as significant elements of a literary text. The purpose of the study is to analyze the data of temporal words in the aspect of reflection of aesthetic categories. Materials and methods. The research material was the texts of poetic works of the XX–XXI centuries, collected and systematized on the basis of a sample from the National Corpus of the Russian language. For the purposes of the study, such basic methods as observation, classification, generalization, descriptive-analytical, component analysis method were used. Results. The analysis of the linguistic material showed that the names of the seasons are used to reflect only two aesthetic categories, i.e., the beautiful and the sublime. At the same time, most of the examples relate to the description of the beauty of the landscape. Practical implications. The conclusions obtained in the course of the study can be used in teaching university courses on lexicology, linguoculturology and philological analysis of poetic speech.

ntroduction. Extreme psychrophiles still remain largely understudied. However, they can serve as biological components in drug production, as well as increase the shelf life of food products in food industry. Therefore, the properties of psychrophilic microorganisms are a relevant study object. The present research objective was to isolate new psychrophilic microorganisms in extreme low-temperature conditions of the caves of Gornaya Shoria and Salair (Kemerovo region) and study their antimicrobial properties. Study objects and methods. The research featured psychrophilic microorganisms isolated in the caves of the Kemerovo region. The sampling was performed in triplicate. The samples were placed in sterile paper. Antibiotic resistance was defined according to the area where the antibiotic plate suppressed bacterial growth. The cell suspension was placed in a Petri dish with an agar-based medium. The discs with antibiotics were put on the surface of the medium and incubated in a thermostat at 28°C for 24 h in order to describe the growth of the isolates. Results and discussion. The microbial communities of the Gavrilovskaya and Azasskaya caves produced seven isolates with different morphological characteristics. Isolates 1, 4, and 5 had pronounced suppressive properties at 2 ± 4°C. Isolates 1, 4, and 5 proved resistant to antibiotics. Isolate 1 exhibited high resistance (21–26) to Neomycin and Novogramon, medium resistance (17–22) to Ceparin, Kanamycin, Levomycin, Carbenicillin, and Streptomycin, and low (2–8) resistance to Benzylpenicillin and Clotrimazole. Isolate 1 had no antibiotic resistance to Ampicillin, Gentamicin, and Tetracycline. Isolate 4 showed high resistance (22–27) to Novogramon, medium resistance (10–22) to Tetracycline, Clotrimazole, Neomycin, Zeparin, Kanamycin, Levomycin, and Monomycin, and low resistance (2–8) to Ampicillin, Benzylpenicillin, Streptomycin, and Gentamicin. Isolate 4 demonstrated no antibiotic resistance to Carbenicillin and Polymyxin. Isolate 5 proved highly resistant (27–26) to Ceparin, Benzylpenicillin, Levomycetin, and Novogramon, and medium resistant (12–22) to Clotrimazole, Streptomycin, Neomycin, Gentamicin, Polymyxin, Carbenicillin, and Monomycin. Isolate 5 demonstrated no resistance to Ampicillin, Tetracycline, and Kanamycin. Conclusion. Psychrophiles can serve as microorganisms to create new biological products that suppress the development of diseases in plants. Psychrophiles proved an extremely promising research direction for cultivating and storing agricultural products.

The article deals with the universal psychologizm of I. Franko's prose in terms of the theory and methodology. The researches of Franko hearitage (A. Krymsky, S. Yefremov, O. Biletsky, M. Vozniak, Y. Yankovsky, I. Denysiuk, M. Ilnytsky, M. Tkachuk, Y. Melnyk, T. Hundorova, M. Hnatiuk, S. Pavlychko N. Zborovska, A. Shvets, R. Holod, B. Tycholoz, etc.) revealed on a different historical stage of the study the whole range of problems with a unified understanding of the deep psychologizm of Franko’s fiction . They made a conclusion that the creative method of Kamenyar is analytical-synthetic, multidimensional and it cannot be clearly defined. This peculiarity of I. Franko's creativity is quite natural. That is a result of difficulties to find general complex of psychological features and original artistic works during late nineteenth and early twentieth century. The concept of the interrelationship between artistic anthropology and literary methodology is connected with the problem of evolutionary consciousness of the entire culture of the twentieth century, or rather cased by the whole artistic life with its attempt to find its own form of expression. This background caused the methodological options – the psychoanalytic method and the typological characteristic based on comparison with F. Dostoevsky’s prose. This type of research is possible to make, while analyzing I. Franko works as “Motherland” (“Bat’kivshchyna”)’, “Boa Constrictоr”, “The Blackthorn in the leg” (“Teren u nozi”), “How Yura Shikmaniuk waded Cheremosh” (“Yak Yura Shykmaniuk briv Cheremosh” etc. It is possible to notice that the artistic and scientific model (for example, “From the Secrets of Poetic Creativity”) of writer’s thinking is close to the psychoanalytic ones, such as the method of free association of S. Freud, the theory of personality of A. Adler, the existential therapy of V. Frankl, the humanistic psychology of E. Fromm. The approaches, made by I. Franko are – to some extent – ahead of listed methods. In fact – according to G. F. F. Hegel, the method is a theory, reversed to practice. We made a conclusion that the psychoanalytic method of studying I. Franko's artistic prose opens the perspective of a dialectical understanding of the synthesis of the artist's creativity, in addition to the socio-historical, poetic horizons, and psychologically-comparative measurements in a heterogeneous cultural and paradigm of the West and the East. This also applies to the comparative characteristics of the work of the Ukrainian artist with the new Chinese literature (现代 文学).

The relevance of the study is conditioned by the role of relations between Kazakhstan and China within the framework of the SCO. To a large extent, the SCO contributed to the development of relations between China and Central Asia. Currently, China enjoys good relations with the countries of Central Asia, often cooperates in various fields, and also often exchanges top-level leaders and promotes each other’s development. Gradually formed a new concept of security, based on a common win-win cooperation and win-win results and contributed to the achievement of common interests. Understanding the international strategic status of Central Asia and the relations between China and Central Asia will help us understand the current strategic intentions of the Central Asian countries and adjust the strategic relations between China and Central Asia. Kazakhstan as an important country in Central Asia and as a regional power, plays an important role in the political and economic structure of Central Asia and even in the international arena. Therefore, China is actively developing close relations and cooperation with Kazakhstan. Key words: Kazakhstan-Chinese relations, Shanghai Cooperation Organization, Central Asia, cooperation.
