Authors:   , Karintrakul Sasipha
Published: December 2023

Effective weight reduction remains a challenge throughout the world as the prevalence of obesity and its consequences are increasing. This study aimed to determine the effects of an individualized nutrition counseling program (IC) matched with a transtheoretical model (TTM) for overweight and obese subjects. Fifty overweight and obese subjects who were staffs at the Ramkhamhaeng hospital, aged 19-60 years with a body mass index ≥ 23 kg/m2 were enrolled in this study. They were randomized into two groups as equal. Intervention group received an IC matched with a TTM. Control group received an educational handbook. Body weight (BW), body fat (BF), waist circumference (WC), waist to height ratio (WHtR), stages of change (SOC), processes of change (POC), food intake, and physical activity, were assessed at baseline and at 4, 8, and 12 weeks after program initiation in both groups. The result showed 45 female subjects were included in the 12-week trial. The mean age was 32.87 ± 9.05 years. The intervention group showed significant weight loss 1.98 ± 1.75 kg at 12 weeks, compared to a 0.17 ± 1.67 kg loss in the control group. There were significant differences between intervention and control groups in BF mass (−1.68 ± 1.78, −0.04 ± 1.62 kg); percent BF (−1.54 ± 2.11, +0.08 ± 2.05); WC (−5.35 ± 3.84, +0.13 ± 3.23 cm); WHtR (−0.0336 ± 0.02, −0.0004 ± 0.02), and energy consumption (−405.09 ± 431.31, −74.92 ± 499.54 kcal/d) in the intervention and control groups, respectively. Intragroup SOC was improved in both groups. The POC for the weight management action (WMA) process was significantly different with POC scores increasing by 16.00 ± 11.73 and 7.74 ± 14.97 in the intervention and the control groups, respectively. PA level did not change in either group. In conclusion, the IC matched with a TTM resulted in reductions in BW, BF, and WC, thus reducing likely health risks by decreasing energy intake and inducing positive behavior changes while enhancing the WMA process.

La ciencia es un episodio en la historia del conocimiento. Todo conocimiento viene de la experiencia y de su reflexión sobre la misma.  Pero la ciencia es algo más: implica una etapa en nuestra evolución cuando se separan recursos, personas e instituciones con el propósito explícito de ir más allá. Cada vez que la humanidad se involucra con materias o procesos nuevos se plantea más elementos para investigar: la selección de variedades de cultivos nos dio la genética; la navegación y la agricultura nos dieron la astronomía; el motor a vapor nos dio la termodinámica; por eso, la ciencia representa el desarrollo de nuestro conocimiento como especie.

CLASSIFICATION OF DOCTRINAL PRINCIPLES OF LAW
Authors:   The Academy of the FPS of Russia, Iliukhina Vera A. ,   RANEPA
Published: December 2023

The specific features of doctrinal principles of law, complicating the process of their clas­sification, are noted. Based on a positivist legal understanding, three original classifications of doctrinal principles of Russian law are proposed. The first classification is based on criteria such as the source of origin and the source in which the doctrinal principle is formulated. The second classification criterion for doctrinal principles of law is recognition by the scientific community. Within the framework of the third classification, doctrinal principles are distin­guished depending on the sphere of social relations to which the doctrinal principle extends or may extend.
HISTORICAL NARRATIVE IN THE WORK OF KALININGRAD POETS DURING PERESTROIKA: THE EXPERIENCE OF CONTENT ANALYSIS
Authors:   Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, Stalmakova Angelina V.
Published: December 2023

During the years of Perestroika, discussions about Stalinism and the Soviet legacy be­came a focal point of public attention. In the Kaliningrad region, interest in history during this period shifted towards the regional pre-war past, the cultural heritage of the area, the history of its settlement, and the development by Soviet people. Historical themes became one of the leading motifs in the works of Kaliningrad poets. The aim of the article is to identify the “images of the past” that shaped the historical narrative in Kaliningrad poetry during the Perestroika period. The primary research method employed is content analysis conducted us­ing the Max QDA 2020 software. The analysis is based on 126 poetic works by 47 authors published from 1985 to 1991. The “images of the past” are examined in the article through the prism of the reflection of historical memory of Kaliningraders and utilizing the concept of “lieux de mémoire” (places of memory). The article demonstrates the dynamics of poem publi­cations over the years and characterizes the prioritized historical themes, including events of the Great Patriotic War, the settlement and recovery of the region, and the fate of the histori­cal and cultural heritage. The conclusion is drawn that during the Perestroika period, influ­enced by changes in public consciousness, there was a gradual incorporation of new historical images of the pre-war and post-war past of the region into poetic texts. Simultaneously, there was a tendency to preserve and partially reconsider certain components of the Soviet histori­cal narrative related to the war and the formation of the Kaliningrad region.
PROSPECTS FOR A NEW INTERVENTION BY MILITARY IN THE POLITICAL PROCESSES IN THE REPUBLIC OF TURKEY
Authors:   Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, Gasanov Mraz A.
Published: December 2023

The military’s involvement in political processes in Turkey has ambiguous consequences for society. On the one hand, for decades, the army has supported the secular character of Turkish politics. On the other hand, the military has acted as a strong force slowing down the development of Turkish democracy, fearing a loss of influence over the state. Whenever condi­tions for political emancipation arose, the military took control, organizing mass repression in the country. The last attempted coup in 2016 undermined the already weakened position of the military, but there is no firm certainty that the army will not attempt to reclaim its role as a hidden guardian. The goal of the undertaken research was to forecast the conditions under which the military might attempt a coup. Scenario analysis was used for the prediction. As a result, three scenarios for the development of the Republic of Turkey were obtained: the estab­lishment of a rigid clerical authoritarianism, democratic transition, and the preservation of a hybrid regime. It was identified that the highest likelihood of a military coup exists under the establishment of rigid authoritarianism, and the lowest likelihood is under the preservation of a hybrid regime.
LANGUAGE POLICY OF ESTONIA: ACHIEVEMENTS AND THE FUTURE OF EDUCATION IN THE RUSSIAN LANGUAGE
Authors:   Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, Maksimov Ilya P. , Smirnov Maksim ,   Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University
Published: December 2023

Estonia’s language policy sparks serious debates in the academic community, further complicated by the politically charged nature of the topic. In the works of Estonian authors, there is unequivocal postulation of Russia’s influence on Estonian society, while relatively little attention is given to the Russian-speaking minorities themselves. Domestic researchers focus on the negative aspects of integration and language policies—violations of the rights of national minorities, the assimilative nature of Estonia’s language policy—yet, due to the lan­guage barrier, rarely incorporate Estonian-language empirical material. This often leads to diametrically opposite conclusions about the prospects of Estonia’s language policy, ranging from the inevitable assimilation of the Russian-speaking minority to its successful integration into Estonian society while preserving linguistic and cultural distinctiveness. The article examines the results of Estonia’s language policy as of 2023 and the prospects for Russian-language education in the country, drawing conclusions about the potential transformation of integration policy into a genuinely assimilative one.

Numbers and shares of Open Access Journals in Sociology charging publication fees
Authors: Herb Ulrich
Published: December 2023

In June 2014 I analysed the data of the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) to find out to what extent Open Access Journals in Sociology (as listed by the DOAJ) charge their authors with publication fees (or article processing charges APCs). A CSV-file offered for download by the DOAJ did not contain any information on APCs, in fact the whole APC-column was empty, so I gathered the information manually from the DOAJ’s search interface.

Published: December 2023

Die Deutsche Journalisten Union (dju) kritisiert den neuen Entwurf für die zweite Stufe der Urheberrechtsreform heftig. Dabei geht es vor allem um die Rechte auf angemessene Vergütung, die — so die dju — durch das geplante Gesetz massiv beschnitten werden sollen. Die dju beanstandet insbesondere, dass die so genannte Geräteabgabe auf fünf Prozent des Verkaufspreises beschränkt werden soll.
Thinking in State: The Tao of Frontend Development
Authors: Ydenberg Casey
Published: December 2023

One of the side effects of working with redux is that it forces you to think about your application in terms of state instead of thinking in terms of user workflow. While state might seem like an implementation detail, with experience it becomes more a part of the design process, allowing us to accurately predict "sad path" situations that may arise when the app is in a particular state.

National security: The role of social networks
Authors: Lutovac Nikoleta , Lutovac Svetislav
Published: December 2023

Social networks have permeated all spheres of modern society. They enable online connection of users with their friends and family, research of necessary information, entertainment, and online shopping. Social networking sites are increasingly being used by companies to communicate with their target market, and even governments themselves are becoming aware of their utility. However, as a relatively still unsettled area (primarily legally), social networks are a place where the activities of cyber attackers are increasingly taking place, which can threaten both the security of individuals and the state itself. There are more and more examples in which cyber terrorists, using social network sites, spread misinformation, ideology, cause fear, but also recruit their supporters, thereby directly threatening national security. On the other hand, social networks can, at the same time, be a very useful for the protection of national security, as a very effective tool for communication with the population in situations where it is important to quickly warn people about the potential danger of terrorist activity.
Association between time from diagnosis to initiation of systemic therapy of metastatic renal cell carcinoma with treatment outcome
Authors: Lisičić Nikola , Kević Angelina , Savić Marko , Nikić Predrag
Published: December 2023

Introduction: In about 30% of cases, renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is detected initially in the metastatic stage (mRCC). The mainstay of mRCC treatment is anti-angiogenesis targeted therapy and immunotherapy which both have significantly prolonged progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with mRCC. Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the association between the time interval from diagnosis of mRCC to the start of systemic therapy with the radiologically assessed best treatment response after 12 months of therapy. Material and methods: This observational study included 85 patients diagnosed initially in the metastatic stage of RCC. All patients received single-agent systemic targeted therapy sunitinib. The minimum follow-up period was 12 months. The radiologic assessment was performed after every 3 months, and the RECIST criteria were used to evaluate the best treatment response. Results: The mean time interval from mRCC diagnosis to the start of systemic targeted therapy was 3.5 ± 2.5 months, with a median of 2 months. No statistically significant association was observed between the best radiologically assessed treatment response after 12 months of therapy and the time interval from diagnosis of mRCC to the start of systemic targeted therapy (p = 0.7). Moreover, no statistically significant association was found between the best radiologically assessed treatment response after 12 months of therapy and a total number of metastatic sites at baseline. Conclusion: No association was observed between the best radiologically assessed treatment response after 12 months of systemic targeted therapy, neither with the time interval from mRCC diagnosis to the start of systemic targeted therapy nor with the total number of metastatic sites in patients who were initially diagnosed with mRCC and received sunitinib in first-line setting.
Correlation of FLI fatty liver index with insulin resistance indices in patients with metabolic syndrome
Authors: Mitrović Marija , Mišević Vojko , Popović Ljiljana
Published: December 2023

Introduction: Metabolic syndrome includes insulin resistance, visceral obesity, hypertension and dyslipidemia, which together lead to an increased risk of atherosclerosis, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes mellitus. Insulin resistance is considered a pathophysiological mechanism underlying metabolic syndrome, characterized by inadequate glucose metabolism, hyperinsulinemia and lipid imbalance. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a chronic disease characterized by microvesicular steatosis and isn't a consequence of the use of drugs, alcohol, or inherited diseases and is a hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome. Aim: Since insulin resistance is pathophysiologically related to metabolic liver diseases, the aim of this study was to investigate the correlation of the FLI index with insulin resistance indices HOMA and QUICKI, but also a comparison of the insulin resistance index HOMA, Quicki and Tyg and the FLI index of fatty liver in the complete sample and in the groups of overweight and obese patients with characteristics of the metabolic syndrome. Material and methods: The study included 70 patients who met the criteria for the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome and who were selected by reviewing the medical documentation. Patients were divided into two groups. Group A were overweight patients (BMI 25 - 29.9 kg/m2). Group B were obese patients (BMI > 30 kg/m2). Insulin resistance index values were compared between groups and then correlated by statistical analysis with FLI index within groups and in a complete sample. Results: Statistical analysis found a correlation between the FLI index and the insulin resistance index HOMA (p = 0.03) in a complete sample. A statistically significant difference in the values of the FLI index between the examined groups was proved (p = 0.001). Conclusion: The positive correlation between the FLI index with the HOMA index speaks in favor of the interrelationship between insulin resistance and fatty liver in patients with metabolic syndrome. In this case, insulin resistance can be a predictor for the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, steatosis, steatohepatitis, hepatocellular carcinoma and cardiovascular diseases.
