Fluctuaciones del ciclo económico y ahorro privado en economías emergentes: Un análisis de datos de panel.
Authors:   , Cabrera Figueroa Patricio Ignacio
Published: November 2024

Este estudio analiza las fluctuaciones del ciclo económico y su impacto en el ahorro privado en 9 economías emergentes mediante un análisis de datos de panel desde 1990 hasta 2022. Utilizando una metodología de panel desbalanceado, el estudio encuentra evidencia que la tasa de ahorro en estas economías tiende a ser en promedio procíclica a diferencia de los países desarrollados de la OCDE que tiende a ser contracíclicas, disminuyendo durante las recesiones debido a la incertidumbre económica y el desempleo. Finalmente, encontramos que las fluctuaciones del ahorro a lo largo del ciclo no pueden explicarse por las teorías de ahorro precautorio y restricciones de liquidez, las cuales han sido utilizadas para explicar los fenómenos durante las crisis en países desarrollados.
The Erosion of Cultural Essence: Translating Mythical Cultural Terms in Classical Chinese Folk Novels
Authors: Wei Mian , Zainor Izat Zainal  , Wong Lingyann
Published: November 2024

This paper explores the challenges and implications of translating mythical cultural terms from the Chinese classical literary work Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio. Drawing on the theoretical framework of cultural loss and compensation, this study employs a comparative analysis of two selected English translations by Herbert Giles and John Minford to identify and evaluate the compensation methods used and their impact on preserving cultural essence. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive methodology, this research analyzes selected stories featuring mythical beings, focusing on the translation of specific cultural terms and the use of annotations and contextual explanations. The study examines the extent to which cultural subtleties are preserved or lost in translation, evaluating the effectiveness of compensation methods and their implications for readers’ cultural understanding. By examining the translators’ choices and their influence on the portrayal of mythical beings, the study aims to provide insights into how cultural subtleties are either preserved or eroded in the translation process. Key findings indicate that while some translations strive to maintain the original cultural essence through careful annotation and contextualization, others prioritise readability and accessibility, leading to significant cultural loss. The paper concludes with recommendations for translators and scholars to enhance cultural preservation in literary translations and suggests directions for future research. This study contributes to the broader discourse on the translation of classical Chinese literature, highlighting the importance of cultural fidelity in translating mythical beings and the role of translators in shaping cultural understanding and appreciation.

Small-scale fishers also use coral fishing in the coastal waters of the Spelman Strait in meeting household needs and improving their welfare. The purpose of this research is to analyze how coral fish biomass in two fishing seasons, namely the west and east seasons. The coastal waters of the Spelman Strait are rich in reef fish resources. Small-scale fishers also use coral fishing in the coastal waters of the Spelman Strait in meeting household needs and improving their welfare. The purpose of this research is to analyze how coral fish biomass in two fishing seasons, namely the west and east seasons. The results of the study, reef fish biomass in the two seasons is relatively different. The difference between the two is due to different fishing patterns, wherein the wet season, the reef fish that are targeted by fishermen are the Serranidae and Lutjanidae families, and the size of the fish is relatively large by using hooks number 5, 6, 7 and 8. In contrast, in the east season, the target fish fishers are all reef fishes and are relatively small in size using hooks 15, 16 and 17. The problem is that some fishermen still use explosives in catching reef fish. Muis et al. (2019) reported the condition of live coral cover in the coastal waters of the Spelman Strait in moderate condition (37.71) and dead coral (33.71). Community participation in the management of fisheries resources is significant to note because the community is the user of these resources. Community participation in the management of fisheries resources is crucial to do because of fishermen as users of resources. Muis et al.

Published: November 2024

Cattle farming in rural areas is often considered a form of investment or living savings. Farmers maintain cattle as assets that can be sold at any time when they need urgent funds, such as for healthcare, education, or other expenses. Liang Village, located in Salahutu District, Central Maluku, has great potential for the development of beef cattle farming. However, its productivity remains low, partly due to a lack of proper livestock management. One important aspect of livestock management is individual identification. Without proper identification, it is difficult for farmers to track the growth of livestock, control diseases, and increase the market value of the cattle. This community service activity aims to raise awareness among farmers in Liang Village about the importance of livestock identification and technical assistance in the implementation of appropriate tagging methods. The desired outcome is that farmers will be able to manage their operations more effectively, especially in terms of livestock identification systems. Farmers have responded positively, as they view this as a beneficial and innovative approach. It is recommended that ongoing support be provided in the form of training on cattle tagging so that farmers can effectively monitor their livestock.

Health technology assessment of using botulinum toxin type A in the settings of Russian health care in patients with neurological diseases
Authors: Kulikov A. Yu. , Serpik V.G.
Published: November 2024

Botulinum toxin therapy is a complex healthcare technology with a number of features from both a clinical and regulatory point of view. More and more attention is paid to the immunogenicity of this group of biological drugs when prescribing botulinum toxin type A drugs. Also noteworthy is the expanding list of indications for medical use of drugs in this group, with indications being disclosed within individual trade names. In this regard, an assessment was made of a drug with the generic name “Botulinum toxin type A” (Xeomin) as a drug characterized by the presence of prerequisites for having the most favorable immunogenicity profile among all botulinum toxin type A drugs registered in Russia and indications for use in the treatment of sialorrhea. The methodology for assessing the healthcare technology was based on a pharmacoeconomic evaluation using cost-effectiveness analysis and Markov modeling. A number of drugs with the group name “Botulinum toxin type A-hemagglutinin complex” (Botox, Dysport, Relatox), registered in the Russian Federation, were included in the assessment as a comparison drug. The conducted assessment of the healthcare technology of using botulinum therapy for a number of conditions - spasticity, cervical dystonia, blepharospasm and sialorrhea showed the feasibility and cost-effectiveness from the perspective of the healthcare system of using the drug Botulinum toxin type A (Xeomin). It was found that the values of the incremental cost-effectiveness indicator of the drug Xeomin in the treatment of spasticity, cervical dystonia, blepharospasm and sialorrhea in terms of QALY does not exceed the value of the willingness to pay threshold. In addition, the use of the drug Xeomin in the treatment of sialorrhea prevents the development of its complication - aspiration pneumonia and the costs associated with its treatment, which can be accompanied by savings of 9,406 rubles per patient. The use of Botulinum toxin type A reduces the organizational burden on the healthcare system when applying/purchasing, transporting and storing in comparison with drugs Botu- linum toxin type A-hemagglutinin complex.
Bread Procurement Campaigns in the South-East Regions of Ukraine as a Form of Terror against the Peasants of the Region
Authors: PSHENYCHNYI Taras
Published: November 2024

The topic of the Famine of 1932–1933 was and remains sensitive for Ukrainian society. The 90th anniversary of this tragedy coincided with no less tragic events caused by Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine. In both cases, we are dealing with an attempt to destroy the Ukrainian people, destroy their state, reshape culture, annex memory. Each of these efforts of the totalitarian regime can be considered both individually and comprehensively, through the prism of the use of special mechanisms of terror. The Soviet Union was the state that, from the first days of its existence, turned terror into a tool for “working” with society. It was he who was used by the Bolshevik regime to “solve” the national question. In parallel with the promotion of the idea of internationalism, the Soviet government embodied, initiated and intensified the class struggle. Its scale was fully felt by the Ukrainians, who in the 1930s became hostages of an artificially created famine. However, the proposed article offers an analysis not of famine as such, but of the preconditions that led to it through total bread harvesting campaigns. The focus is on highlighting their scale in the region, the population of which, a priori, could not become hostage to hunger, due to the agrarian potential of the southeastern regions of the Ukrainian SSR. Based on statistical data obtained from a large number of archival documents, the article demonstrates the evolution of state policy in relation to the implementation of grain procurement campaigns. On the example of government decisions, the expansion of the scale of bread procurement and their forcing at the highest state level is demonstrated. Therefore, the author draws attention to the occurrence of a food collapse among the million population of the region, for which the actions of the state authorities were a priori incomprehensible. Along with this, the formation of the personnel policy in the Ukrainian SSR to ensure and support the grain procurement terror is not left out of the author’s attention. Thus, according to the article, specific persons delegated by the state government were behind the bread procurement terror in the South-Eastern regions of Ukraine. And this is only once again confirming that mass grain procurement campaigns in the Ukrainian SSR were clearly directed, coordinated and were a manifestation of the concentrated rejection of the Ukrainian factor by the Soviet Bolshevik system. Keywords: bread procurement campaigns, South-Eastern regions of Ukraine, soviet terror, Ukrainian SSR, the Holodomor of 1932–1933, Ukrainian peasantry.
Denial of the Holodomor as scientific Problem: Methods and Perspectives of Exploration
Authors: KOZYCKYJ Andrij
Published: November 2024

The study of the history and methods of Holodomor denial is an important scientific issue. The denial of the Holodomor began already during its implementation and did not stop until the collapse of the USSR. The first to deny the Holodomor were its organizers and perpetrators, the Bolshevik leaders of the USSR. The communist regime of the Soviet Union stubbornly and consistently refused to recognize the fact of the 1932–1933 famine in Ukraine and tried to conceal its catastrophic demographic consequences. To accomplish this task, not only the propaganda apparatus and special services were involved, but also cultural figures, educators, and scholars. Western intellectuals and journalists who belonged to the left or liberal ideas made a significant contribution to the silencing and later denial of the Holodomor. It was only in the late 1980s, under pressure from changes in the domestic political and international situation, that the Communists had to recognize the famine of 1932–1933 in Ukraine. However, as an official explanation for those events, the authorities immediately offered a version that absolved the Kremlin of responsibility for the multimillion human victims of the Holodomor. At the same time, the Communists continued to deny that the artificial famine was anti-Ukrainian. The denial of the Holodomor did not end with the collapse of the USSR. After Ukraine declared its independence, Russia became the main opponent of the dissemination of information about the Holodomor and the organizer of the campaign to deny its recognition as an act of genocide. In contrast to Ukraine, in Western historiography, the study of the history and theory of genocide denial has long been the focus of research by a number of scholars. In Western countries, research on the denial of the Holocaust, the Armenian genocide, and other cases of mass extermination of civilians began in the 1980s and 1990s. At the turn of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, a consensus was formed that genocide denial is a separate genre of political journalism and pseudo-scientific literature, and thus a separate subject of study. The application of the research findings of Western scholars of twentieth-century genocide denial will provide an opportunity to better understand the policy of Holodomor denial that was used in the past by the USSR and is now used by Russia in its information war against Ukraine. All of this gives reason to believe that the study of the history and theory of Holodomor denial has great scientific prospects. By studying the Holodomor denial, Ukrainian scholars have the opportunity to use the work of their foreign colleagues. This will facilitate the integration of Ukrainian science into the global scientific community. Keywords: Holodomor, genocide, Holodomor denial, genocide denial, propaganda, USSR, Russia.
Ukrainian Nationalism in the Propaganda of the bolshevik’s and modern Ideology of the russian Imperialism
Authors: KOLOS Dmytro
Published: November 2024

The study compares how “Ukrainian nationalism” was interpreted in the Soviet press and the texts of contemporary ideologues of Russian imperialism. The way in which Ukrainian nationalism and its alleged followers were dehumanized during the trial of the Union for the Liberation of Ukraine in 1930 (using the example of the texts of Andrii Khvylia, Mykola Skrypnyk and publications of the magazine “Bolshevik of Ukraine”) was examined. The image of Ukrainian nationalism presented in public statements that preceded and accompanied the full-scale war from 2022 was analyzed (texts of Timofey Sergeytsev, the address of the President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin). In the widely circulated texts, the authors accused the “nationalists” of espionage, treason, moral degeneration and the preparation of a coup d’état, which can be defined as hate speech. Communists and contemporary ideologues construct the image of the enemy, using accusations in a mirror that Ukrainian nationalists commit terror or genocide. They depict their victims as aggressors and themselves as victims, justifying violence against Ukrainians as preventive measures. Contemporary Russian ideologues, in particular Timofey Sergeytsev, claim that Ukrainians, hiding behind the rhetoric of independence, profess fascist, racist and Russophobic ideology. Putin and Sergeitsev rejected the Soviet style of hate speech according to which Ukrainian nationalism was bourgeois and therefore criminal. They repeat the pre-Bolshevik imperialist interpretation of the “Ukrainian question”, according to which Ukraine is an integral part of Russia. Therefore Ukrainian nationalism is criminal because it wants to destroy Russian-Ukrainian unity. For Sergeytsev, Ukrainian nationalists are criminals because they pursue a racial policy against Russians, introduced discriminatory laws, committed genocide in the Donbass, commit mass violence and murder of Russians, and established a dictatorship unrestricted by law. The accusations made at the SVU trial were repeated during the Holodomor in the party’s official documents and Joseph Stalin’s correspondence with his supporters, and were directed at Ukrainian peasants and members of the Communist Party (bolshevik) of Ukraine. These accusations can be considered evidence of the desire to eradicate Ukrainian nationalists through artificial hunger and terror, which was facilitated by the cultivation of the image of the enemy in the previous years. The texts of modern Russian ideologues not only construct the image of the enemy, but also outline a consistent program of murders and Russification of Ukrainians and, according to the assessments of jurists and historians, indicate the intention to commit genocide. Keywords: Bourgeois nationalism, Union for the Freedom of Ukraine trial, Andrii Khvylia, hate speech, image of the enemy, de-Nazification, Russophobia, Timofey Sergeytsev.
Holodomor and early modern Moskovite Strategies of the “Deportation of Elites” and “Burnt Earnt”: a Comparative
Authors: YAKUBOVSKI Ihor
Published: November 2024

The article is devoted to research of the correlation between the mechanism of the Holodomor of 1932–1933 on the one side and the previous Muscovite expansionist strategies related to the integration of the Russian imperia on the other. The aim is to examine the coherence of the early modern Muscovite practices “deportation of elites” and “burnt earth” with the approaches to the organization of the Holodomor. The conceptual strategy of the research bases on the historicism principle, contextual analysis and comparative methods. The scientific novelty. The article is a pioneer research of the above-mentioned problem. The main results of the research. It was figured out that the authority strategies directed to create in the Ukrainian village the conditions which are incompatible with life were not exclusive invention of the Stalin`s regime. These strategies have a old roots in the early modern age and organically continued the traditional practices , transformed to the circumstances of the first half of the twentieth century. In fact the activity of the Stalin`s regime regarding the create of Holodomor only finalized approaches which were previously approbated by Russian imperial elites during the creation of the Russian imperia. The deportation of many peasant in the course of the Holodomor genetically connected with deportation the elites inherent the Muscovy from the fifteenth century. In the Ukraine the Muscovite tsar began to use this approach after the Pereyaslav Council of 1654. The burgers of the some West Ukrainian towns could become victims of the deportation. The real deportations of Cossack officers Muscovy carried out in Ukraine in the second half of the seventeenth century. It is traceable the succession between the practices of Early Modern age and Holodomor in the field of the involvement the representatives of the local population to the legitimation of the deportation. Some elements of Peter I strategies of the “burnt earth”, used in 1708, are precursors the actions directed to the killing by famine in1932–1933. The problem of the millstone and non sanctioned by authority grinding of grain was similarly interpreted by Moscow at the beginning of the eighteenth century and during the Holodomor. The results of the research open the perspective to study the connection between other Muscovite strategies. Keywords: Holodomor, genocide, Russian expansion, strategies of the “deportation of elites” and “burnt earth”, succession.
The Forgotten Genocide: how Swedish School History Textbooks Address the Holodomor
Authors: TEGLUND Carl-Mikael A.
Published: November 2024

This article explores how Swedish school history textbooks address the famine-genocide of 1932–1933 in Ukraine. By analyzing how this historical event is represented in educational materials, the article aims to determine the extent to which the Holodomor is acknowledged, contextualized, and explained within the broader narrative of Soviet interwar history presented to Swedish students. The source material consists of textbooks used in Swedish schools, ranging from lower secondary to upper secondary education. 20 textbooks were reviewed, and interviews were conducted with six teachers and one author. It underscores the practical importance of accurately representing the Holodomor within history education, particularly in terms of the consequences of insufficient education about past genocides and crimes against humanity. The article highlights challenges within the Swedish education system, including curricular limitations, limited resources, and the prioritization of events like the Holocaust and the Gulag over the Holodomor, shedding light on how these factors could influence students’ understanding of historical events and the broader context of past atrocities. The article reveals that, while the Holodomor is mentioned in some literature, it is only briefly addressed, with the Gulag instead becoming symbolic of communism’s crimes against humanity. As one teacher suggested, there may be a geographical perspective at play, prompting more focus on events closer to home. A noticeable trend over time also emerges in school literature, with more recent publications being more likely to address the Holodomor using accurate terminology, while older works tend to avoid it. Additionally, there is a tendency to explain the Holodomor, when mentioned, as a result of poor economic planning (i.e., communism) rather than as a deliberate act driven by ethnic hatred toward Ukrainians within the framework of Russian imperialism. In fact, no Swedish schoolbooks clearly present the Holodomor as a genocide. Consequently, this report identifies three possible outcomes: 1) the Holodomor is not mentioned at all, 2) mass starvation is referenced but not as the Holodomor, or 3) the Holodomor is acknowledged but explained primarily as a result of forced collectivization in Soviet agriculture rather than an outcome of Russian imperialism or ethnic hatred aimed at eliminating Ukrainians as a people. Thus, a portrayal of the Holodomor as both an event in its own right and as genocide could not be demonstrated, nor was any such literature found. Keywords: History, Holodomor, Genocide Education, History Didactics, Soviet History, Ukraine, Sweden

Photobiomodulation therapy is widely used to treat various pathological conditions. This therapy is based on the use of monochromatic light radiation. The light of the visible spectrum induces different biological effects at the molecular and cellular levels, both therapeutic and toxic. The obtained effect depends on the length of radiation, exposure, etc. One of the possible mechanisms of such influence is the regulation of pro-oxidant-antioxidant homeostasis. In order to clarify the mechanism of action of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) of different spectral composition, catalase (CAT) activity was investigated in germ cells of loach Misgurnus fossilis L. during embryogenesis. Since, loach embryos are an adequate system that reflects the physiological state of the cell both under normal conditions and as a result of the influence of various pharmacological, physical and chemical agents. The resulting zygotes were irradiated (10 min) with blue and red LEDs (λ = 460 and 660 nm, respectively). The activity of CAT was determined by the ability of hydrogen peroxi­de to form a stable colored complex with molybdenum salts. It was established that EMR of the red spectrum has the most pronounced biological effects and caused significant changes in catalase activity during embryogenesis relative to control and blue light. The maximum increase of the indicator occurs at the stage of 16 blastomeres, and at the stage of 8 and 10 divisions, a gradual decrease in enzymatic activity is observed. Irradiation by the light of the blue spectrum lasting 10 min did not cause significant changes in catalase activi­ty relative to the control at the early stages of loach embryogenesis. The obtained results suggest that CAT, one of the key enzymes of the antioxidant defense system, undergoes photoactivation under the influence of red light.
Metabolic syndrome: mechanisms of development and experimental models

Published: November 2024

Metabolic syndrome is a condition characterized by the presence of insulin resis­tance and the presence of two of the following risk factors: obesity, hyperlipidemia (hypertriglyceridemia, decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol), hypertension, or microalbuminuria. The multifactorial nature of metabolic syndrome makes it difficult to create an adequate experimental model that would best represent the entire spectrum of the pathophysiology of this condition. This review aims to summarize current literature data on the pathophysiological mechanisms of metabolic syndrome in the context of the development of insulin resistance, obesity, dyslipidemia, impaired glucose tolerance, and inflammation. The article also summarizes modern approaches to the induction of metabolic syndrome in rodents, among which dietary manipulation, genetic modifications, and the use of pharmaceuticals are the most common. As genetic models of metabolic syndrome, rodents with leptin or leptin receptor deficiency are most often used, in particular leptin-deficient mice (ob/ob), leptin receptor-deficient mice (db/db), Zucker obese rats (ZF), diabetic rats lines Zucker with obesity (ZDF) and others. Pharmaceutical drugs that can be used to induce metabolic syndrome include endogenous glucocorticoids and antipsychotic drugs. Several dietary manipulations are used to induce metabolic syndrome in laboratory animals. In particular, one type of diet or a combination of diets can be used, such as diets high in fructose, sucrose and fat, or a diet characterized by a high content of both fructose and fat or sucrose and fat. Manipulations with the composition of products consumed by experimental animals make it possible to simulate the development of metabolic syndrome, since the diet affects the metabolism of the entire body, and has a regulatory effect on hormones, glucose and lipid metabolism pathways.
Review of modern approaches to the management of invasive species of the genus Heracleum in Europe
Authors:   Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, Nasadiuk P. , Mamchur Z. ,   Ivan Franko National University of Lviv
Published: November 2024

The article discusses the relevance of the problem of invasive alien species (IAS) in Europe, highlights the bioecological characteristics of invasive species of the genus Heracleum (H. mantegazzianum, H. persicum, and H. sosnowskyi) and historical ways of introduction. Statistics on the spread of these species and their negative impact on biodiversity and ecosystem resilience are presented. The spread of invasive species of the genus Heracleum has far-reaching consequences, affecting ecosystem sustainability, the economy, and healthcare. It has been shown that the ecological consequences of the impact are manifested not only in the ability of these species to displace native flora and disrupt natural ecosystems, but also in various areas of economic activity. These plants’ aggressive growth and allelopathic effects lead to significant economic costs associated with land management and agricultural productivity. The examples of different mechanisms of impact of invasive species of the genus Heracleum highlight their detrimental effects on ecosystems and human health. In particular, the phototoxic substances of Heracleum spp. pose severe risks to human health, causing skin inflammation and long-term photosensitivity. Various methods of controlling, eradicating and preventing the spread of Heracleum spp. species in Europe are discussed in detail, including mechanical, biological, and chemical methods and preventive strategies. Attention is also focused on post-eradication control methods, disposal of plant waste gene­rated during eradication, and restoration of natural vegetation. The key steps of an integrated approach to effectively reduce the invasion of Heracleum spp. in new areas are analysed. The urgent need for integrated management strategies to mitigate the impact of invasive Heracleum species and prevent further spread is shown. It is noted that IPM control is an important international issue that requires coordinated efforts at the EU and UN levels. The conclusion is drawn about an integrated management approach that combines physical, chemical and biological methods adapted to specific regional conditions and aligned with international biodiversity goals. The article also discusses the role of public awareness and education in preventing the spread of invasive species. Public involvement in early detection and rapid response initiatives is emphasised, which is crucial for the successful management of alien invasive plant species.

The exocrine function of pancreatic acini cells is a highly energy-intensive process. A cell always needs to maintain a stable level of ATP balancing between states of activation and rest. Low-energy is one of the possible mechanisms contributing to the development of pancreatic diseases. The most commonly encountered disease of the pancreas is acute pancreatitis. It is known that excessive alcohol consumption causes the development of pancreatitis. The pathogenesis of this disease is linked to the cellular loss of energy, but the mechanism of alcohol’s effect on the mitochondria in pancreatic acini is unclear. This study’s main aim is to assess the impact of acute alcohol administration on the mitochondrial function of rat pancreatic acini. Wistar rats were administered ethanol (6 g/kg body weight) by oral gavage for 3 h before the experiment. A suspension of isolated pancreatic acini was obtained following collagenase digestion. Respiration of isolated pancreatic acini was studied with a Clark electrode. The maximal respiration rate was studied at different concentrations of protonophore FCCP (0.5–2 μM) in solutions containing glucose combined with oxidative substrates (pyruvate and glutamine, monomethyl-succinate or dimethyl-α-ketoglutarate). Dehydrogenase activity was measured by colorimetric method. Ethanol administration caused a significant increase in the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase. It was confirmed that FCCP induced an increase in the respiration rate of pancreatic acinar cells in each experimental group. The addition of 1.5 μM FCCP reduced the respiration rate of pancreatic acini during the oxidation of glucose and monomethyl succinate or dimethyl-α-ketoglutarate, but not during the oxidation of glucose, pyruvate and glutamine substrates. The administration of ethanol had no impact on the basal or FCCP-uncoupled respiration of isolated pancreatic acini. The observed data are consistent with the findings of other researchers. However, alcohol exposure is not sufficient to cause mitochondrial damage in pancreatic acinar cells. In conclusion, acute ethanol administration does not cause mitochondrial dysfunction in the pancreas of rats but causes an increase in pyruvate dehydrogenase activity.

The results have been given in the paper of study phytobiotic at the base of essential oils influence on broiler biochemical and morphological blood traits after broiler vaccination against Newcastle disease (ND). “Ross-308” cross broilers have been the research object from hatching moment to 42 days age. The broilers have been grown in Omsk region poultry farm. 3 groups have been formed for the experiment, 25 broilers per group. Control group broilers have got drinking water without the preparation and experimental groups broilers have got have got different doses of the phytobiotic preparation. Broilers have been vaccinated against ND virus in 15 days age. It has been established after blood morphologic-and-biochemical traits analysis that protein metabolism is quicker in vaccinated broilers that have got phytobiotic with water. This metabolism is characterized with total protein content increasing by 8.5–14.1%, albumen content increasing by 11.2–13.4%, erythrocytes by 19.1–33.3%, leucocytes by 10.1–75.3% and hemoglobin by 6.6–13.7% when phytobiotic preparation has been used as in 1 group.

The Elegant Inkstones and Artful Calligraphy in Modern Korea: The Catalogue of Three Inkstones Studio (三硯齋硯譜, Samyŏnjae yŏnbo)
Authors: Seo Yoonjung
Published: November 2024

This study investigates The Catalogue of Three Inkstones Studio (三硯齋硯譜, Samyŏnjae yŏnbo), compiled by Pak Yŏngch’ŏl (朴榮喆, 1879~1939), a prominent Korean bureaucrat, businessman, and collector during the Japanese colonial period. The catalogue centers on three inkstones reputedly associated with notable Chinese and Korean scholars. Pak Yŏngch’ŏl, despite his modernist and enlightenment leanings, was deeply rooted in classical Chinese culture and used his collection to assert his cultural and intellectual identity. The study examines the cultural significance of inkstones, their role in forging social ties, and the strategic utilization of the past by modern intellectuals for self-fashioning. The first inkstone is notable for its inscriptions by Dong Qichang (董其昌), Weng Fanggang (翁方綱), and Kim Chŏnghŭi (金正喜), illustrating the cultural interconnectedness between Chinese and Korean scholars. The second inkstone, crafted by the eighteenth-century scholar Chŏng Ch’ŏlcho (鄭喆祚), is explored in terms of the craftsmanship and social networking practices of the late Chosŏn era. The third inkstone features a poem by Shen Rujin (沈汝瑾) and showcases the transnational cultural exchanges between China, Korea, and Japan. Pak Yŏngch’ŏl’s collection practices and the subsequent compilation of the catalogue reflect his efforts to align himself with the cultural heritage of both China and Korea, while also embracing modernization under Japanese influence. The catalogue not only serves as a historical compendium but also as a reimagined past that aligns with the cultural aspirations of subsequent generations. Through a detailed analysis of the inkstones and their associated texts, the study provides a micro-historical perspective on East Asian intellectual history and material culture, revealing the intricate interplay between cultural memory, networks, and craftsmanship.

Introduction. In order to find sources of vitality in art therapy, various types and means of art are widely used, which help the participants of art therapy practices to realize their unique individual life scenarios. A doll, as an anthropomorphic character for an adult, can become a cultural mediator, because it, as a means of psychological transfer, acts as a kind of an individual’s avatar. In art therapy, the creation of a doll and endowment it with symbolic content can fill a person's creative activity with a resourceful life-affirming meaning, especially in the conditions of war. Aim: to analyze the possibilities of a resource doll for teachers in art education as an art therapy personal self-support tool in life crises. Methods: analysis and systematization of literature; theoretical analysis of the problem; analysis of the results of the assignments performed by the trainees of the State Scientific and Methodological Center "Psychological Support by Art Workshop". program. Results. A resource doll was shown to be an effective art therapy tool in providing individuals’ self-support in life crises. The results of the assignments performed by the trainees of the State Scientific and Methodological Center "Psychological Support by Art Workshop". program allowed determining the types of the trainees’ visual images, the most common of which was the Motanka doll, the verbal manifestations that were broadcast by the doll’s "advice" and were related to individuals’ self-support and self-help. The choice of the concept, type, color, and material used for making resource dolls was based on subconscious and conscious processes that reflected the participants' experience and attitude to existing social situations. Conclusions. Creating dolls helped the participants to reveal their inner world, social positions, intellectual qualities, creativity, sense of humor, creative potential in general as psychological self-help potentials. The findings presented in the article may promote a resource doll as an art therapy self-support tool in life crises.
