Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND: Currently, the gold standard of surgical treatment of idiopathic scoliosis is dorsal or anterior correction using rigid instrumentation. However, anterior dynamic scoliosis correction has recently become a popular method for treating idiopathic scoliosis. It is recommended for patients with a certain growth potential. We present the long-term treatment results of patients with idiopathic scoliosis and the use of a dynamic correction system during completed and ending growth.
AIM: To evaluate radiological and clinical data on the results of surgical treatment of idiopathic scoliosis in patients with completed and terminating growth and a FU period of 2 years.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective study of demographic data, X-ray (Cobb angle before and after surgery and ≥2 years, Lenke type, Risser test), number of fixation levels, nucleotomy, blood loss, surgery time, and complications, was conducted. The functional result was evaluated using the SRS-22.
RESULTS: Eighty-seven patients (men, 4; women, 83) were included. ASC (thoracic) was performed in 30 patients; lumbar/ thoracolumbar, 32; 2 sides, 13; and hybrid system, 12. Lenke: Lenke 1 (right-sided, 18; left-sided, 7); Lenke 2, 5; Lenke 3, 19; Lenke 4, 2; Lenke 5 (left-sided, 26; right-sided, 8); and Lenke 6, 2. The average blood loss was 281.2±173 ml; operation time, 174.8±42.3 min; FU, 2.2 years; age, 23.3 years; Risser, 4.42 (3–5); number of fixed levels 7.25±1.6°; and Cobb angle in the thoracic group during the first post-op study, 27.9±5.3°, and the last at 25.2±6.9° compared with the pre-op at 62.4°±10.9° (p 0.05). No significant loss of correction was found in patients with Lenke 5,6 52.5°±8.4° before surgery, 24.2±12.4° after, and a long-term FU of 27.2°±11.6° (p 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Dynamic scoliosis correction in adults is a new direction in spine surgery and provides a satisfactory radiological and functional result that persists for 2 years.
Snapping triceps syndrome: literature review, diagnosis, surgical technique, reasons for revision
Authors: Karpinskii Nikolay A. , Kostenko Ivan V.
Published: July 2024

INTRODUCTION: Snapping triceps syndrome is a rare condition that may be misdiagnosed with ulnar nerve instability. It commonly affects young males who complain of painful snap on the medial side of the elbow. This snap appears when the elbow is being extended with resistance, such as during push-ups. Surgical treatment includes anterior transposition of the ulnar nerve and resection of the medial portion of triceps.
AIM: To analyze the results of surgical treatment performed on wide-awake patients using local anesthetic without tourniquet.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-one patients were operated on 26 hands by a single surgeon between 2018 and 2023. Patients were assessed at least 6 months post-surgery via telephone calls, e-mails, and messaging apps.
RESULTS: Eleven patients were reached for follow-up. Amount of revision surgeries is 8 in this series with maximum number of 5 in one patient for both hands. Two patients are still having different issues in their elbows.
CONCLUSIONS: Snapping triceps syndrome is not easy to treat despite knowledge on this rare condition. The most common reason for revision surgery is persistent snapping even in those patients who were tested for active resisted extension during surgery. However, successful surgery may lead to full return to sport activities as none of our patients complained of loss of triceps power.
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (clinical observation with a brief review of the literature)
Authors: Kolondaev Aleksandr F. , Rodionova Svetlana S.
Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND: Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is a rare genetically determined disease of the musculoskeletal system and characterized by heterotopic ossifications in the muscles, fascia, and tendons and congenital and skeletal deformities that form during life. Owing to the lack of awareness of doctors, unresolved challenges in monitoring the disease and predicting the course and development of its complications, and the lack of generally accepted effective treatment, fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva leads to severe disability and social disadaptation, limiting the life expectancy of patients.
CLINICAL CASE DESCRIPTION: The characteristic anamnestic data of a patient with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva are presented. The course of the disease from the moment of detection at age 1 year and 3 months to 29 years was determined. Notably, the care and symptomatic treatment performed during this period could not prevent the regular appearance of new heterotopic ossifications, which led to severe functional disorders and loss of the patient’s ability to self-care. In a brief review, the current possibilities of pathogenetic therapy for this disease and prevention of progression and complications were considered. The risks of unjustified surgical interventions leading to increased severity of the course and functional disorders are emphasized.
CONCLUSION: The scientific studies conducted in recent years to examine the etiopathogenesis of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva enabled the development of effective pharmacotherapy, which provides hope for the possibility of preventing the progression of the disease and improving the quality of life and social adaptation of patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva.

The article addresses the provision of legally sanctioned monetary allowances to fighters from volunteer formations established in the Rostov region during the Great Patriotic War. It scrutinizes regulatory documents approved by the highest national authorities as well as documents from Rostov's regional party-state structures that are directly related to the financial support of these local volunteer military units. The article outlines the rationale, general characteristics, and mechanisms of regular monetary payments, highlighting their specific features and amounts. Additionally, it examines the disparities in the grounds, procedures, and mechanisms for disbursing monetary allowances to volunteers who joined the regular army, irregular regional volunteer formations, and partisan units. By analyzing documents, the authors reveal the specific sums allocated as monetary allowances to volunteers and the variations depending on the type of volunteer formation, rank, and position. The article concludes by discussing the role and significance of these payments to fighters from various volunteer formations during the war as a means of providing material support to their families.
Analysis of the Current Energy Transition Through the Lens of the Path Dependence Concept
Authors: Loktionov Vadim I. ,   Baikal School of BRICS, Irkutsk National Research Technical University
Published: July 2024

The energy industry is currently undergoing rapid transformations driven by both dynamic geopolitical interactions and global governmental efforts to meet sustainable development goals. The fourth energy transition involves not only a significant increase in the utilization of renewable energy sources and a reduction in carbon emissions but also a substantial restructuring of the global energy market, characterized by a diversification of energy suppliers and consumers. Despite the swift pace of changes, the trajectory remains relatively steady, influenced by the path dependence phenomenon. This article investigates the characteristics of path dependence within the energy industry, identifying key factors that contribute to its manifestation. Special focus is given to the role of the interpretative frame's inertia. The analysis delves into how the interpretative frame affects the implementation of the energy transition. The study concludes that for the successful realization of the fourth energy transition, the resistance within the institutional environment of the energy industry–amplified by path dependence–must be addressed. This can be achieved by altering the existing interpretative frame through targeted interventions in public discourse.

Security Services: A Leading Sector of the “New Economy”?
Authors: Orekhovsky Petr A. ,   Institute of Economics of the RAS
Published: July 2024

Private firms and individual agents that provide security and detective services to people have always existed regardless of government power and its military and/or police units. However the demand for such services quickly declined as industrial society emerged, within which a certain degree of social homogeneity was achieved. The centralized state security industry provided greater "economies of scale" and the wealthy "welfare states" were fairly secure. The situation began to change at the turn of the 1970s – 1980s. During the next “industrial revolution” paradoxically brought to life the processes of deindustrialization and a reduction in the share of people employed in industry in rich Western countries contrary to its name “industrial”. The same economic process led to a split in the ruling elite in the USSR, where citizens could only turn to the police and state security agencies for security and detective services. Progressive democratic discourse shaped the reality of the late 1980s, in which the demand for private security services was driven by a surge in crime during the collapse of the totalitarian socialist state. With the transition to a market economy based on private property, the demand for such services would have to fall sharply. On the contrary, within the framework of structuralist discourse, the demand for the services of global security organizations in Russia is part of a general trend associated with the transition to the post-industrial society. The public official assessment of the security services market in Russia in 2022 will be 120 billion rubles. This value seems to be somewhat underestimated. When recalculating the real market volume in 2022, it was about 2 trillion rubles. On the contrary, within the framework of structuralist discourse, the demand for the services of private security organizations in Russia is part of a global trend associated with the transition to a post-industrial society. The public official assessment of the security services market in Russia in 2022 amounted to 120 billion rubles. This estimate seems extremely underestimated. When recalculated, the real market size in 2022 was about 2 trillion rubles. The emergence of a new economy is associated with the destruction of the “welfare state”, which began half a century ago and to which rich societies are unlikely to be able to return. One should take into account such features of the structure of the new economy as positional consumption, a sharp increase in social heterogeneity, and the undermining of the state’s monopoly not only on violence, but also on the emission of money. In these conditions, the security services sector appears to be one of the most important economic activities both now and in the near future.
Problems and Disorders in the Functioning of Co-Addicted Adults as a Challenge for Social Work
Authors: Przybysz-Zaremba Małgorzata , Bieńkowska Wioletta
Published: July 2024

The article presents key problems and the most common disorders in the functioning of adult co-dependent people. The main aim of the research was to understand the functioning of co-dependent adults as family members with alcohol problems. Particular attention was paid to the problems experienced by co-dependent adults in their biological family, their own family and professional work. The empirical material was collected using an original survey questionnaire, which consisted of 40 questions. The selection of the sample for the study was purposeful, in which the researcher selected units that met the criteria he specified and had specific properties. The study involved 143 co-dependent people who live or lived (were raised) in a family with an alcohol problem. The research results prove that in all indicated areas, co-dependent people experienced various problems and functioning disorders. They show that co-dependent people require a holistic approach from social work to the individual experiencing a problem (addicted person or co-dependent person), focused on heterogeneous influence, which increases the chances of long-term independence.
Professional Burnout of Social Workers as a Result of Occupational Stress
Authors: Nowosad Katarzyna
Published: July 2024

Social worker is one of the professions particularly vulnerable to burnout. This is due to the helping nature of the work, which causes an emotional burden resulting from the client’s growing expectations and often limited possibilities of fulfilling them, as well as from the sense of responsibility for the client’s fate. Moreover, social workers are aware of their moral responsibility for the decisions they make towards their own conscience, the client, the work environment or their superiors, as well as awareness of legal responsibility. Their occupational stress is often intensified by the need to enter the extremely sensitive, difficult and often complex sphere of their clients, because they are witnesses of human misfortunes, their learned helplessness or adaptation difficulties that make it impossible to function socially or effectively perform parental roles. Sometimes social workers become victims of aggression from demanding clients. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between the burnout of the surveyed social workers, manifested in its various dimensions, and the level of their general occupational stress. In solving the main research problem, first of all, the diagnosis of burnout of the surveyed social workers (explained variable) was made. For this purpose, the LBQ Questionnaire (Santinello) was used, which is the Polish adaptation of the Italian Link Burnout Questionnaire (LBQ). The occupational stress of the surveyed employees (explanatory variable) was determined by using the Stress Feeling Questionnaire. An additional dimension was introduced into the questionnaire – a lie scale, which can serve as a reliable tool for the initial verification of the respondents’ statements. The statistical analyzes performed confirmed the adopted hypothetical assumptions about a statistically significant positive correlation between the two variables. For this reason, this issue requires constant research and analysis as well as adequate preventive actions. The article is one of the attempts to diagnose this phenomenon and contains specific conclusions that are not only cognitive but also utilitarian.

To study ocular surface and tear flim abnormalities in patients undergoing [PHACO] and [SICS]. [DED] is a disease of either tears or the ocular surface which leads to visual disturbance. SICS resulting in corneal hyposensitivity and reduction in reflex secretion and wound healing. PHACO is a contemporary cataract surgery in which the eyes internal lens is emulsified and aspirated from the eye using an ultrasonic handpiece.

A Hospital based prospective study involved 100 patients aged 40-65 years.100 patients were subdivided into 2 groups, 50 members in each group. The observation of TBUT before surgery and after 1,3,6 months post-surgery were carried out in both group of patients.

In this study 100 patients were subdivided into 2 groups, 50 members in each group as follows Group 1-50 patients scheduled for SICS with PCIOL implantation, Group 2-50 patients scheduled for PHACO with PCIOL implantation. Preoperatively the mean Schrimer value was 13.70 and 13.40 in patients underwent SICS and PHACO respectively. At postoperative 1 week, 89.1% of the group had grade 2 dry eye compared to 92.9% in the SICS group [p 0.0001].

Individuals with SICS had a higher prevalence and severity of dry eyes than those with PHACO.

Published: July 2024

Patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR) have a greater risk of blindness compared to those without diabetes. HbA1c is a valuable indicator used to assess the long-term management of diabetes mellitus. Hence, the main objective of this study was to explore the relationship between HbA1c levels and the severity of diabetic retinopathy.

This one-year prospective observational clinical study was conducted at the Department of Ophthalmology and Diabetic Clinic, Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal, involving 100 diabetic patients. Detailed medical histories related to their diabetes were recorded. The diabetic retinopathy status of each patient was assessed through a comprehensive ophthalmologic examination and classified according to the early treatment diabetic retinopathy study (ETDRS) system. Clinical data of the patients, including HbA1c levels, were gathered during the study period.

Among the 100 patients, 29% were females, while the remaining 71% were males. A notable finding emerged, revealing a significant link between the severity of diabetic retinopathy and HbA1c levels. Additionally, the duration of diabetes and lipid levels also demonstrated a significant association with the severity of retinopathy (P value < 0.05). However, the age and gender of the patients did not exhibit a significant correlation when compared across different grades of diabetic retinopathy (P value > 0.05). ROC analysis revealed that an HbA1c cutoff of 7.6% was the most effective in detecting both the presence of any diabetic retinopathy and its grades.

A strong statistical relationship was found between HbA1c levels and the severity of diabetic retinopathy. Patients with higher HbA1c levels, indicating poorer blood sugar control, showed more severe grades of diabetic retinopathy. HbA1c levels emerged as a reliable predictor for both the presence and severity of diabetic retinopathy.

Review the incidence of binocular dysfunctions, clinical features, their association with binocular vision disorders and refractive status at a vision therapy clinic of a tertiary eye institute in India.

In this retrospective study, the clinical record of all the patients of binocular dysfunction was obtain from Electronic medical record (EMR). We reviewed the record of 527 symptomatic patients with binocular vision dysfunction related problems who were referred between July 2022 to June 2023, to binocular vision therapy clinic. Out of which 393 patients (74.57%) who had accommodative dysfunction were included in the study. Patients with any ocular surgery, manifest strabismus, amblyopia, anisometropia (more than 2.00 dioptres), ocular pathology, neurological disorders, were not included in the review. Prepresbyopic patient also excluded from this study. All clinical assessments were done by one of the two experienced optometrists.

Of the 527 symptomatic patients examined, 74% (393 subjects) showed binocular dysfunction. Among the 393 binocular dysfunction patients, most of them diagnose with convergence insufficiency (18.82%), convergence insufficiency with accommodative insufficiency (26.97%), convergence insufficiency with accommodative infacility (23.40%), convergence insufficiency with accommodative excess (19.24%), poor PFV (4.58%), and convergence excess (6.36%).

: In conclusion, we have evaluated the binocular vision dysfunctions of a non-presbyobic population. Out of 527 symptomatic patients examined, 74% (393 patients) showed had binocular dysfunctions. Incident CI was more than CE. This study will provide the prevalence data of binocular vision dysfunction. The study will also provide insight into the differences in binocular vision parameters. A diagnosis of binocular dysfunction depends not only on a few clinical findings of some accommodative and binocular investigations but on a whole battery of tests, in order to produce diagnosis of the type of dysfunction of the patient. For this reason optometrists should systematically complement their routine examination with a whole battery of accommodative and binocular tests that would help to avoid the non-detection of these anomalies in daily optometric practice.

Kapłan, powstaniec, emigrant – ks. Władysław Godlewski (1804-1867)
Authors: Kuzicki Jerzy
Published: July 2024

Artykuł stanowi próbę monograficznego ujęcia postaci ks. Władysława Godlewskiego. Z osobą tego dziewiętnastowiecznego kapłana autor zetknął się podczas pracy nad monografią poświęconą duchowieństwu Wielkiej Emigracji. Prozopograficzny charakter tego opracowania nie pozwolił na ujęcie wszystkich szczegółów biograficznych życia tego duchownego. Pomimo kilku opracowań w słownikach biograficznych koleje życia tego kapłana zawierają pewne nieścisłości, które wymagały uzupełnień. W artykule przedstawiono młodość Godlewskiego, jego udział w powstaniu listopadowym, edukację, pobyt na emigracji w Anglii, w Belgii, we Włoszech (Rzym) i we Francji. Najwięcej miejsca poświęcono działalności duszpasterskiej ks. Godlewskigo, w tym zwłaszcza kaznodziejstwu. Początkowo ks. Godlewski był związany ze zmartwychwstańcami, ale wkrótce odszedł z tego zgromadzenia. Prowadził działalność duszpasterską w kilku ośrodkach Wielkiej Emigracji, najwięcej w Misji Polskiej w Paryżu.
Artykuł powstał na podstawie opracowań, prasy emigracyjnej oraz zachowanej korespondencji i tekstów homilii z archiwum zmartwychwstańców w Rzymie, Biblioteki Polskiej w Paryżu i Biblioteki Czartoryskich w Krakowie.
„…w Wierze S Katolickiey z Kościołem Rzymskim zjednoczoney, żyć y umierać pragnę”. Losy duchowieństwa unickiego na terenie dawnego województwa bracławskiego po likwidacji sieci parafialnej (1794-1839)
Authors: Wodzianowska Irena
Published: July 2024

Po drugim rozbiorze Rzeczypospolitej władze carskie przystąpiły do akcji przywracania ziemiom zabranym „rdzennie rosyjskiego wyglądu”. Istotnym elementem rusyfikacyjnym stała się likwidacja struktur Kościoła greckokatolickiego. Tempo konwersji na prawosławie kształtowało się w zależności od terenu przeprowadzenia akcji. W granicach dawnego województwa bracławskiego akcja przebiegła najszybciej. Zróżnicowany wyznaniowo i narodowościowo teren województwa okazał się podatny na wpływy prawosławnych zarówno z Perejasławia, jak i Mołdawii. Część wiernych stawiała bierny opór wobec siłowych rozwiązań, część z kolei chętnie wróciła do wiary przodków. Podobne postawy cechowały także duchowieństwo greckokatolickie. Pozbawione środków do życia poprzez brak systematycznych wypłat pensji, przyjmowało prawosławie formalnie, pozostając w swych parafiach. Przywołano w tekście nazwiska tych, którzy do końca pozostali wierni Kościołowi katolickiemu. Ich dalsze losy po roku 1840 pozostają wciąż nieznane.
Przesłanie pastora Karola Diehla do współwyznawców w sprawie wojny z Rosją 1812 r.
Authors: Ziółek Ewa M.
Published: July 2024

Prezentowany artykuł przybliża mało znany dokument z pamiętnego roku 1812. Jest to odezwa do duchowieństwa ewangelickiego w Polsce. Jej autor, pastor Karol Diehl, przełożony zborów ewangelicko-reformowanych w Księstwie Warszawskim, napisał ją realizując zapis artykułu 8. Aktu Konfederacji Generalnej Królestwa Polskiego, który wzywał społeczeństwo do składania akcesów do Konfederacji. Na przełożonych wszystkich wyznań nakładał natomiast obowiązek poinformowania wiernych i zachęcenia ich do tego dzieła. Odezwa napisana została w duchu patriotycznym i z nadzieją, że zwycięska wojna z Rosją przyniesie powrót „szczęśliwych czasów”, za jakie Diehl uważał okres Rzeczypospolitej u szczytu potęgi – w drugiej połowie XVI wieku. Były to dla niego czasy tolerancji, rozwoju i powszechnego pokoju.
Opieka duszpasterska nad wychodźcami na łamach „Echa Przemyskiego”
Authors: Zych Sławomir
Published: July 2024

Pod koniec XIX i na początku XX wieku w Galicji wystąpiło zjawisko masowych migracji zarobkowych. Znalazło to swoje odbicie m.in. na łamach prasy, czego przykładem było czasopismo „Echo Przemyskie” wydawane w latach 1896-1918. Na przestrzeni lat na jego łamach ukazało się kilkaset tekstów poruszających zjawisko emigracji stałej i sezonowej. Część z nich wiązała się z kwestią zorganizowania i prowadzenia opieki duszpasterskiej nad wychodźcami. Dotyczyło to m.in. pracy organizacyjnej, działalności duchowieństwa w krajach, do których przybywały grupy polskich robotników i osadników, aktywności kleru galicyjskiego oraz kapłanów diecezji przemyskiej podejmujących posługę duszpasterską wśród emigrantów.
Elżbietanki w diecezji warmińskiej po II wojnie światowej w świetle zachowanej dokumentacji w Archiwum Akt Nowych Archidiecezji Warmińskiej w Olsztynie
Authors: Kopiczko Andrzej
Published: July 2024

W artykule przedstawiono dzieje Zgromadzenia Sióstr św. Elżbiety w diecezji warmińskiej po 1945 r. Na tym terenie podjęło ono działalność już w 1864 r. i w kolejnych dziesięcioleciach utworzyło 24 domy. Jednak po II wojnie światowej, wskutek strat osobowych i zmian granic diecezji, elżbietanki pracowały tylko w dziewięciu placówkach. Już na początku lat pięćdziesiątych XX wieku – z powodu represji – opuściły Kwidzyn, natomiast zaraz po wojnie utworzyły dom w Olsztynie. Ten też nie przetrwał długo, ponieważ w 1948 r. w miejsce elżbietanek przybyły siostry Rodziny Maryi. Poza Kwidzynem placówki przedwojenne przetrwały w Bartoszycach, Biesowie, Orzechowie, Ostródzie, Postolinie i Straszewie. Natomiast po 1945 r., poza Olsztynem, w 1951 r. utworzono jeszcze dom w Nowym Kawkowie.      Elżbietanki w swoich placówkach koncentrowały się na ambulatoryjnej pielęgnacji chorych, dziełach miłosierdzia w ramach Caritas, opiece nad kościołami i katechizacji. Jednak po 1970 r. zamykały swoje domy, a w momencie podziału diecezji warmińskiej w 1992 r. już na jej terenie nie było żadnego; ostatni został zlikwidowany w 1989 r. w Nowym Kawkowie.
Siedemnastowieczne suburbium Górki w kontekście badań nad dziejami lubelskich przedmieść. Przyczynek do rekonstrukcji krajobrazu kulturowego historycznego Lublina
Authors: Chachaj Jacek
Published: July 2024

Tekst dotyczy nieobecnego w literaturze lubelskiego przedmieścia Górki, notowanego w pierwszych latach XVII wieku. Niewprowadzone dotąd do obiegu naukowego zapisy zawarte w lubelskich księgach miejskich pozwalają na wskazanie miejsca, w którym należy lokalizować tę mało znaną część Lublina. Znajdowało się ono w północnej części notowanego zarówno wcześniej, jak i później, rozległego Krakowskiego Przedmieścia położonego na zachód od miasta w murach. Przez pewien czas zapewne traktowano Górki jako odrębne przedmieście.

Published: July 2024

Piotr Hiacynt (Jacek) Pruszcz (1605-1667?), hagiograf, panegirysta i autor przewodników po kościołach i miejscach świętych, w 1662 r. opublikował dzieło Morze łaski Bożey, prezentujące ośrodki kultu Chrystusa i Matki Bożej na terenie Rzeczypospolitej. Podobnie jak wielu autorów barokowych był kompilatorem, wykorzystującym informacje zapożyczone od innych. Prześledzenie źródeł jego wiedzy pozwala na uznanie go za człowieka wykształconego. Chociaż nie był profesorem, a jedynie woźnym Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego w Krakowie, musiał przesiąknąć atmosferą akademicką, miał też dostęp do zasobów bibliotecznych. Znał doskonale Biblię i literaturę teologiczną, w tym dzieła z zakresu mariologii, popularne w jego czasach. Przygotowując przewodnik, wykorzystał dzieła historyczne i hagiograficzne, literaturę sanktuaryjną, pamflety. Wiadomości czerpał również z materiałów rękopiśmiennych: odpustów udzielonych przez Stolicę Apostolską, akt komisji duchownych, zeznań o cudach i łaskach oraz archiwaliów zakonnych, parafialnych i miejskich. W przypadku, gdy nie miał dostępu do źródeł pisanych, odwoływał się do tradycji i przekazu ustnego.

Authors: Dmitrienko Anna V. ,   Luhansk State Pedagogical University
Published: July 2024

Introduction. The transformation processes that occur in modern society affect all spheres of an individual’s life, forming a person of a new generation. On the other hand, the situation of uncertainty, which is always present during the period of reforms, provokes the need for professional training of such a future specialist who will be competitive in the modern labor market. It is extremely important to develop a set of leadership qualities in students that will contribute to an active professional position in the future, especially when it comes to teachers, because they will become a value and meaningful guide for the younger generation. In the modern scientific field there is still no unified classification of the leadership qualities of future teachers. The purpose of the article is to highlight and scientifically substantiate the complex of leadership qualities of future teachers for their successful formation in the educational space of higher education. The main methods include theoretical ones: analysis, synthesis, abstraction, generalization, classification, which in their integral set will make it possible to comprehensively study the problem. As a result of the study, it was proven that the leadership qualities of future teachers are a stable set of personal qualities of a student that allow him/her to be the initiator and organizer of various types of socially significant activities, obtain effective results from such activities, and strive for self-development and self-improvement. The main leadership qualities of a future teacher include: professional (organizational qualities, ability for effective communication, cooperation and the ability to work in a team, responsibility, tolerance, adaptability, innovation) and personal (self-confidence, discipline, activity and initiative, empathy, creativity and creativity, desire for self-improvement). Conclusion. The author adheres to the idea that the formation of a set of leadership qualities is possible in the educational space of higher education, subject to the implementation of certain pedagogical conditions, which the author plans to substantiate in the future.
Specificity of studying personal role position in bullying

Published: July 2024

Introduction. The variety of existing psychodiagnostic tools, on the one hand, and its insufficiency in terms of taking into account psychological characteristics, the specifics of the role positions of the individual in bullying indicates the presence of a methodological problem. Existing forms and questionnaires do not fully include ideas about the activities of a person in the bullying structure and significantly simplify possible role models. Not all forms and questionnaires have passed the validation procedure. The purpose of the work is to analyze the role position in the bullying structure and, as a result, to standardize the author's research questionnaire for its study. Materials and methods of research. The questionnaire was tested on 198 respondents aged 15-17 years. The study was conducted on the basis of the Academy of Pre-Professional Education of the State Educational Institution of the Republic of Crimea “Fevzi Yakubov Crimean Engineering and Pedagogical University”, Simferopol. The respondents filled out a psychodiagnostic technique form “The role position of a personality in bullying”. The results. The author offers a research questionnaire “The role position of a personality in bullying” to determine the roles and positions occupied by adolescents in bullying and in the adolescent environment according to the model of D. Lane. In the course of an empirical study, the author substantiates the validity, reliability, stability and constancy of the research methodology using statistical analysis. According to the results of the study, in-depth personal characteristics of the participants of the bullying structure (according to the D. Lane model) were determined, which have their own statistically reliable values: initiator, initiator's assistant, defender and victim. Conclusion. The problem of bullying reaches critical proportions – if 10 years ago 1-2 bullying victims could be identified in a student group, today the number has increased 3, and sometimes 5 times (data from VTSIOM and focus groups). The development and validation of a reliable diagnostic method is becoming relevant and necessary. The developed psychodiagnostic tools will allow researchers and practitioners to more accurately diagnose role positions in the bullying structure and develop effective programs for the prevention and correction of this phenomenon.

Published: July 2024

Currently, both the authorities and citizens are joining the traditional forms of interaction, generated by the deployment of the information and digital age. The scientific problem is to assess the effectiveness of the impact of new electronic forms on the practice of interaction between the government and the population. Based on the analysis of statistical data presented on the official websites of the Governor and Administration of the Sverdlovsk region and the Administration of the municipal formation of the city of Yekaterinburg, a tendency to increase the number of electronic appeals has been revealed. The study and generalization of scientific publications, the results of sociological surveys of other authors allowed us to record differences in the motivation of the government and the population in the process of electronic interaction. The conducted research indicates an increase in the effectiveness of management as a process, its greater orderliness. For the population, the new forms can be assessed as ambiguously positive: along with the positive aspects, there are also negative ones.

Distribution of cryptic species of green toads (Bufotes viridis and B. sitibundus) in Dagestan still understudied. We used the nuclear (microsatellite BM224) and mitochondrial (fragment of the CytB gene) markers characterized by species-specific alleles and haplotypes, respectively. Alleles of B. viridis predominated in toad populations in the plains in the north of the republic, while B. sitibundus alleles were more numerous in more southern mountainous and coastal (the coast of the Caspian Sea southeast of Makhachkala) regions. Most samples contained both homozygous and heterozygous genotypes. The distribution of haplotypes for the CytB gene in the republic differed markedly from that for the BM224 microsatellite. If we compare the occurrence of BM224 alleles and CytB haplotypes in studied populations, the relationship between them turned out to be very weak. In many individuals, the nuclear marker belonged to one species, while the mitochondrial marker belonged to another species, indicating the widespread asymmetric introgression of mitochondrial genomes here. We found a significant correlation between the altitude of location and the occurrence of BM224 alleles. In mountainous regions of the republic, populations of B. sitibundus were predominantly distributed, while in lowland regions hybrid populations were revealed, in which the predominance of B. viridis alleles was typical for the most northern populations inhabiting dry steppe and semi-desert landscapes.

Axial duplications are the most complex variant of anomalies characteristic of animals, including turtles. For turtles, the following variants of duplications are described: anakatamesodimus, derodimus, dicephaly, Siamese twins. We present a description of two specimens of the Mediterranean tortoise (Testudo graeca Linnaeus, 1758): with dicephaly and ischio-omphalopagia, a variant of Siamese twins, in which lateral fusion occurs in the region of the sacrum. Our data expand the geography of skeletal anomalies (duplications) and may be useful in studying the general spectrum of reptile pathologies.

The paper presents the results of studying the reproductive biology of Darevskia daghestanica in the valleys of Khzanor and Kitlyarta rivers (Tsunta district, Republic of Dagestan, Republic of Dagestan). Adult females were caught in the II–III decades of May 2021. In the following, the animals were kept singly in a laboratory. Lizards laid eggs from the third decade of May to the second decade of June. The body length of breeding females was 43.95–56.20 mm. Each clutch contained from 1 to 5 eggs with a length of 6.05‒14.47 mm, a width of 4.28‒7.30 mm and a weight of 0.10‒0.40 g. Incubation in artificial conditions lasted 36–51 days. The body length of young lizards emerging from eggs was 20.24‒27.52 mm, and the mass was 0.20‒0.42 g. The length of eggs in a clutch negatively correlated with the fertility of females, and also statistically significantly differed in clutches with different number of eggs. The authors conclude that D. daghestanica is similar to other representatives of the Darevskia (caucasica) complex, as well as to lizards from the Darevskia (praticola) complex in terms of reproductive phenology, size of breeding animals, fertility and the size of offspring.

A comparative assessment of morphological features of erythrocytes Pelophylax ridibundus (Pallas, 1771) and Bufotes viridis (Laurenti, 1768) living near the territory sprayed with pesticides was carried out. Multidirectional changes in the parameters of erythrocytes in the compared species were revealed, expressed in an increase in the width, area and volume of cells in P. ridibundus and a decrease in the values of these parameters in B. viridis. The noted changes are considered as different strategies of adaptation of different amphibian species to habitat pollution.

The helminth community of the Green toad Bufotes viridis (Laurenti, 1768) from the population inhabiting the Caspian basin on the territory of the Republic of Dagestan is characterized. The study was carried out according to the method of full helminthological autopsy. Six species of helminths belonging to two types have been registered: Nematoda (4) and Acanthocephala (2). Of these, the nematode Neoxysomatium caucasicum Sharpilo, 1974 and the acanthocephalan Macracanthorhynchus catulinus Kostylev, 1927, larvae were found for the first time in Russia, and Oswaldocruzia ukrainae Iwanitzky, 1928 was found in the Caspian region and the Republic of Dagestan. For the first two species of helminths, the Green toad is registered as a new host. The composition of helminths is distinguished by the absence of flatworms (monogeneans, cestodes, trematodes) and is formed exclusively by nematodes and acanthocephalans, of which 2 species are endemic. These facts point out the unique nature of the helminth fauna of the Green toad in the Republic of Dagestan.
