Toponyms in inscriptions from Dacia (I)
Authors:   Universitatea Babeș-Bolyai, Cluj-Napoca, Nemeti Sorin
Published: November 2021

The epigraphy of Dacia illustrates different types of communities without municipal status, canabae, vici, pagi, kastella and forms of organization of the rural territory of the territoria and regiones types, centered on settlements of the vicus, pagus, and kastellum types. Some inscriptions, older or more recent, also provide data on rural settlements and their names. The inscriptions have been discovered in Dacia, but it is possible that the toponyms they record indicate settlements from other provinces. I have selected three cases of lectio difficilior where the full name of the settlements cannot be reconstructed due to the fragmentary state of the monuments, to lacunae, or simply to modern ignorance. The three fragmentary sequences are APAL.NIS (CIL III 7728), KISUGI (ILD I 513) and VICI [....]NI (AE 2012, 1237).

Published: November 2021

The conflict archaeology topic is a challenge all over the world, developing in the past ten years simultaneously with the new techniques in understanding the past and use of high‑resolution recordings of cultural heritage. Besides, in close relation with the topic of conflict archaeology is continuously improved the methodology of another sub‑domain, the landscape archaeology, with great results in the last couple of years, important here are the discovery of many new temporary camps in Germany and north west of the Iberian Peninsula. Especially the last ones are similar in shape and positioning with the Roman camps in Șureanu Mountains, though each has its own uniqueness. These reveal in a very special way the Roman army strategy in one of the most important conflicts of the Roman Empire in an alpine area.
Dacici Maximi. The «Barracks Emperors» and the conflicts with the Barbarians near the frontiers of Dacia
Authors:   Universitatea Babeș-Bolyai, Cluj-Napoca, Nemeti Sorin
Published: November 2021

The main goal of this study is to establish the historical context of the introduction of the title Dacicus Maximus in 3rd-century inscriptions for emperors like Maximinus Thrax, Traianus Decius, Gallienus, and Aurelianus. Maximinus Thrax officially adopted the title, while for Decius, Gallienus and Aurelianus such a cognomen devictarum gentium is accidentally found on inscriptions and milliaria from distant provinces, such as Hispania, Gallia, and the North-African provinces. To this scarce epigraphic data one can add the sculptural reliefs of the so-called battle sarcophagi from Rome that depict barbarians wearing Dacian costume and Dacian weapons. The main conclusion is that, in this confused era, the imperial propaganda apparatus identified as Dacians certain new, emergent barbarians inhabiting the area of the former Dacia Magna.

The presence of large quantities of pottery in certain rooms has excluded their functionality as officia or armamentaria, whereas others have been identified as possible scholae with rectangular planimetry.
Provincia Valeria media?
Authors:   Pázmány Péter Catholic University, Piliscsaba, Kovács Péter
Published: November 2021

One of the most problematic issues in the study of Roman Pannonia is the fifth‑century history of the province of Valeria and its abandonment, which is further aggravated by a passage in the Ravenna Cosmography (IV. 20), especially if combined with information provided by the Tabula Peutingeriana.1 One interpretation of this enigmatic passage, which has gained widespread currency, is that the Romans or, better said, Aetius, ceded Valeria to the Huns in accordance with the terms of the treaty concluded between them, and that following the province’s evacuation, a new province by the name of Valeria media was created in Italy and south‑western Pannonia.2 This interpretation is widely accepted despite the lack of the passage’s meticulous philological examination; moreover, the problems raised by the passage are manifold and several explanations seem equally feasible. Here, I shall cover the passage in question alongside a historical commentary and a separate discussion of the putative connection between the vita Corbiniani, Aethicus Ister and Pannonia/Valeria as well as the image of Valeria in the works of certain Humanist writers.

On the Power of the Constitutional Court to Rule on the Compliance of Mixed Agreements with the Constitution
Authors:   ", Mingova Viktoria ,   St. Cyril and Methodius",   University of Veliko Tarnovo
Published: November 2021

This study aims at examining the general characteristics of constitutional review of international treaties and highlighting its specificities with regard to mixed European Union agreements. Legal issues stem from the fact that, in this case, we are faced with international treaties concluded not only by the Bulgarian State but by the European Union together with the Member States and third countries. Since the competence of the European Union is exclusive in certain fields, the Union has to ‘mix’ its competences in external relations with that of the Member States in order to be able to act in all aspects of international relations. Although, the review of the constitutionality of mixed agreements does not reveal any specific situation with regard to the power of the Constitutional Court to rule on the compliance of the international treaties with the Constitution, the main issue is about the limitations of the Court, exercising a preliminary and ex post review of the constitutionality of international treaties in the case of a mixed agreement, in the light of the obligation of sincere cooperation, on the one hand, and the safeguarding of the constitutional identity of the Bulgarian State’s participation in the establishment and development of the European Union, on the other hand.

Authors: Zhou Ying , Gu Haiyan
Published: November 2021

The population is a constituent element of human society and is one of the indicators of a country's comprehensive strength. The quantity and quality of population directly determine the level of development of a country or region. Too small a population makes a country or region lack the motivation to develop, and too large a population strains local resources. Therefore, the state introduces relevant policies to regulate the population quantity in China. The analysis of the factors influencing the change in population size helps assess the current state of development and is essential for planning its future prosperity. This paper analyzes the impact of social-economics factors on population size change in Heilongjiang province since China's reform and opening up using double-logarithmic model (DLM) estimated by Elastic Net estimation (ENE). Meanwhile, this paper provides some policy recommendations to promote the growth of population size in Heilongjiang Province.

Authors: Takeuchi H. , Matsumoto T. , Morimoto K. , Atsumi J. , Yamamoto S. , Nakagawa T. , Yamada S. , Kurosaki A. , Shiraishi Y. , Hasebe T.
Published: November 2021

OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively evaluate the clinical outcomes of pre-operative endovascular coil embolisation (ECE) for chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA).METHODS: We evaluated surgical patients with CPA between November 2016 and April 2020. Pre-operative ECE for
CPA with severe adhesions was selectively performed to reduce intra-operative blood loss. ECE procedures, operative procedures, intra-operative blood loss and complications were evaluated.RESULTS: Twenty-eight patients (21 males and 7 females; median age: 55 years) were included
in the study. Of the 28 patients, 8 (28.6%) underwent pre-operative ECE. Technical success rate in pre-operative ECE was 100%. The median time required for ECE procedures was 123 min. The median number of vessels embolised per procedure was 2.5. The median period between embolisation and surgery
was 5 days. Major complications were observed in three patients (10.7%). There were no significant differences between patients with and without pre-operative ECE in operative time (284 vs. 365 min, respectively, P = 0.7602) and intra-operative blood loss (294 vs. 228 mL, respectively,
P = 0.8987).CONCLUSIONS: Pre-operative ECE for CPA appears to be feasible and safe; however, its role in reducing intra-operative blood loss needs further investigation.
Thrombotic events and COVID-19 vaccines
Authors: Brazete C. , Aguiar A. , Furtado I. , Duarte R.
Published: November 2021

COVID-19 vaccines are considered promising agents in the control of the pandemic. Although their safety was assessed in randomised clinical trials, severe adverse events (AEs) have been reported after large-scale administration. This study aims to evaluate thromboembolic AEs reported
after vaccination in a real-world context and how they led to the interruption of vaccination campaigns. We also review the benefits and risks of the vaccines approved in the European Union and provide recommendations. A review of the literature was performed using Medline/PubMed electronic
database as well as institutional and pharmacovigilance official reports. Our findings show that vaccine-induced prothrombotic immune thrombocytopenia has been suggested as a very rare AE associated with viral vector vaccines. Unusual thrombotic events combined with moderate-to-severe thrombocytopenia
were reported mainly in women under 60 years of age. As safety signals emerged, Vaxzevria and Janssen´s COVID-19 vaccine campaigns have been paused while investigations proceed. On the other hand, the number of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism reports have not increased. Post-marketing
surveillance indicated that mRNA vaccines are safe and should continue to be used. The thrombotic events report rate is not increased in people over 60 years. As they are at greater risk for COVID-19 complications and death, no vaccine restrictions are recommended in this group. Risk factors
for vaccine-induced prothrombotic immune thrombocytopenia should be established so that evidence-based decisions can be made. Systematic monitoring of COVID-19 vaccine safety is essential to ensure that the benefits of vaccination outweigh the risks.

The patronage of count Stanisław Skarbek in the educational tradition of Galicia
Authors: Kemin Volodimir
Published: November 2021

During Age of Enlightenment, the so-called “pedagogical age” significant activity was demonstrated by philanthropists, who recognizing the necessity to teach every
social class, including young people from poor families, set up schools for lower social classes, wanted to create a family atmosphere in teaching and education, combining
these processes with productive work. The article analyzes the philanthropic activity of Count Stanisław Skarbek (1780–1848), one of the largest magnates in Galicia, who undertook the implementation of a huge philanthropic project, which was the creation of a theater in Lviv and the establishment of a facility for the poor and orphans in Drogoviž. Unfortunately, Skarbek failed to completely implement his project, because modern people considered this undertaking a myth, a utopia. Nevertheless, the theater in Lviv was built in five years and it was thanks to the active activity of the originator. The theater was put into use in 1842. Six years later, in 1848, Stanisław Skarbek died
without having completed the plans for setting up a charity, despite the fact that he made every effort to do so. With time, Skarbek donated all his assets to the institution
along with the theater and the enterprises that were in it. Thanks to the efforts of Skarbek, the official opening of the plant for the poor and orphans in Drogoviž took place in August 1875.

The presented comparative analysis of internship systems typical of university stud-ies in the pedagogy of early childhood education in Poland and the United Kingdom aims to indicate the significance of this sphere of practical expertise for the process of future teachers’ university education. Theoretical knowledge, which is acquired due to the participation in university lectures and classes, must be supplemented by practical skills that can be only attained due to participant observation and taking relevant ac-tions in educational facilities. The number of hours spent on pedagogy internship for future teachers differs significantly in the Polish and English university education, which becomes evident when one realizes that UK students spend nearly ten times more hours on pedagogy internship than Polish students. Does it mean that a pedagogy student educated in the UK is better prepared for their future vocation than his/her equal in Poland? Since pedagogy internship constitutes a very significant (albeit not the only one) element of university education in pedagogy, the following analyses and considerations aim to initiate a debate concerning the issue. At this point, one has to emphasize that the sheer number of hours spent on pedagogy internship is definitely less significant that the quality, diversity, adequacy and orientation towards practical issues that characterize a given type of traineeship.

The issue of children’s health safety in early education is often disregarded in re-search and literature and this article attempts to emphasize the importance of this sub-ject in the context of the quality of life of younger generation. As school and home environment are foundations of child’s upbringing and education, the undertaken research was based on school influences and we have asked the Pedagogy students from University in Bielsko-Biała to acknowledge and explain the aspect of children’s health safety on this ground. Future teachers should have a wide knowledge of this subject and have the ability to create awareness of this matter amongst their pupils. The carried out research is a ground to undertake further analysis as the case of health safety plays a huge part of widely understood public health and has a great impact on the whole young generation.

Addiction to medical aesthetic procedures
Authors: Kozaczyńska Jolanta
Published: November 2021

Today’s media disseminate a narcissistic cultivation of beauty and promote a focus mainly on appearance and satisfaction from its improvement. The human body assumes
a form in the media that is often impossible to achieve without surgical intervention. When people are in frequent contact with a utopian vision of the perfect body, this
can lead to many disorders in both social functioning and self-perception. In extreme cases, striving to preserve beauty and youth may lead to an addiction to aesthetic medicine treatments. It is an increasingly common phenomenon. People who are addicted to treatments improving their beauty or changing their body shapes are not aware of the problem that affects them. They lose their rational judgement and their assessment is far from the opinions of people around them and socially accepted norms. All signs of concern from others are perceived as an attack on their independence and this further deepens their sense of loneliness and isolation from society. With time, undergoing further beautifying procedures becomes the only way they know to achieve a momentary sense of happiness.

The sectors of the company should, through their organization and business, help the affairs of the overall decision-making process of the top management in the company. Organizational parts of the company that are organized within the sector should, in cooperation with the introduced internal audit of the company, give their practical contribution within the regular business of the company in a way that will contribute to improving the business decision-making of top management in the company. The tasks of internal audit should be closely related to the work of external audit, which performs the tasks of external audit in the company. Internal and external audit should have such an organized structure of work in the audit processes in the company, that they can apply all the adopted standards of the audit profession. This study emphasizes the importance of the practical application of the work of the audit profession in companies in which auditing is performed on the orders of the top management of the company. In addition, auditors should perform their business within the funds approved by top management: in an economical way, i.e. an efficient and effective way during the entire process of performing audit work in the company. The general goal of top management is to provide efficient and quality overall management in the company in such a way that it will provide better and higher quality services. The introduction of external and internal audit in the work of controlling the work of the company, its business, application of adopted procedures, etc., stems precisely from the general goal of top management business. The authors point out that the introduced audit can greatly contribute to the improvement of the overall business results in the company, but this can be achieved only in the case of application of auditor recommendations by the top management of the company.
