CRIMINAL LIABILITY FOR BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY REGIME IN RUSSIAN AND FOREIGN LEGISLATION
Authors:   Udmurt State University (Izhevsk, Russian Federation), Kamalova Gulfia G.
Published: December 2021

The subject of the work is the status and prospects of criminal law liability for various violations of the special legal regime of legally protected secrets. Considering the specifics of criminal liability for violation of confidentiality of information, experts traditionally focus on certain legally protected secrets and a detailed analysis of the relevant corpus delicti, which does not allow to cover the problem of protection of information of limited access by criminal law means as a whole. The author of this article performed a comprehensive legal analysis of criminal liability for violation of legal regime of secrets protected by law and other restricted information on the basis of a set of unlawful acts of non-compliance with the requirements of the regime. Methodologically, the study is based on a set of modern general scientific and private legal methods. It is based on the comparative legal method, which allows to compare the norms of criminal legislation of Russia, CIS countries, European and other states. The author draws attention to the existing differences and notes that some provisions of the modern Russian criminal law do not meet the requirements of the time, modern challenges and threats of the global information society in the conditions of building a digital economy. Based on a generalized analysis of the regulatory legal framework of the Russian Federation, foreign states and existing doctrinal views, the conclusion is made about the unsystematic composition of crimes aimed at violating the legal regime of secrets protected by law and other information of limited access. The author additionally notes the need to separate eco-nomic espionage and intentional disclosure of trade secrets into separate corpus delicti. Certain shortcomings of the Russian criminal law is the lack of corpus delicti aimed at the protection of legal regimes of professional and official secrets, personal data. Taking into account changes in the attitude to the institution of adoption and global trends in the protec-tion of children's rights, the possibility of decriminalisation of the disclosure of adoption secrets in modern conditions has been argued. The above and other problems identified in Russian criminal law with regard to the protection of legally established secrets and other restricted information are aimed at improving criminal legislation.

The article deals with topical issues of assessing the legality of the Prosecutor's office documents of territorial planning, planning and placement of facilities for minors, taking into account the practice of land and urban planning legislation. As, undoubtedly, in the existing rates of design and construction works the measure of responsibility for observance not only the town-planning legislation, but its compliance to requirements of ecological standards also increases. The necessity of more thorough implementation of Prosecutor's supervision over the quality of planning, construction and reconstruction of infrastructure facilities for minors, as well as compliance with the requirements defined by the state in the field of urban plan-ning, up to bringing the perpetrators to the statutory responsibility. The authors also considered the issues of information and analytical activities of the Prosecutor's office, assessment of the legality of urban planning activities of local governments. The authors used the methods of analysis of documents and official materials, the establishment of features in the field of land use, urban planning, taking into account the legislation of territorial planning docu-ments and special technical standards. The conclusion about the need for interaction of the Prosecutor's office with the public and the scientific community, as well as the possibility of their involvement in interdepartmental meetings, working groups, and other assistance to the Prosecutor's office. As a result of the study, the need for prosecutors to take into account the shortcomings allowed by local authorities in the implementation of their functions for the development of territorial planning documents is justified, recommendations are proposed to prosecutors, which can be used in assessing the legality of territorial planning documents. The recommendations that can be applied in assessing the legality of the implementation of urban legislation and the implementation of prosecutorial supervision in this area. On the basis of the rules of law, a General approach to the use of special expertise and the production of expertise is presented.

The article highlights the main trends in the policy of de-offshorization of the Russian economy at the present stage on the basis of a comprehensive analysis of the legal prescrip-tions of international legal acts and national tax legislation The article formulates and describes the system of tax and legal instruments for de-offshorization in the context of the development of the best national and foreign practices, as well as the theoretical views of scientists and is considering the problems and prospects of the implementation of each tool. The shortcomings and contradictions of regulations in the studied area are highlighted. The goals of state policy in the area of economic security of the Russian Federation in-clude the following: strengthening economic sovereignty, ensuring economic progress and increasing sustainability of the economy to external and internal threats. In the context of the above mentioned goals, the state defines for itself the main tasks, calculated for a long period of time, which are designed to facilitate the process of de-offshorization. The essence of de-offshorization should be comprehensively considered from the stand-point of international and domestic legislative regulation. The experience of generalizing the best foreign and national practices, theoretical views of scientists allows us to highlight the most effective set of financial and legal instruments for implementing the mechanism of de-offshorization of the Russian economy at the present stage. It seems possible to group the main trends in tax regulation in this area as follows. First, the modernization of some intergovernmental agreements and conventions of the foreign eco-nomic nature on the double tax avoidance on income and capital and on the prevention of tax evasion on income. In the second place, amendments to the domestic tax legislation in terms of determining CFC profits, simplifying tax administration, determining the procedure for conducting mutual agreement procedures, limiting mechanisms for reducing the tax burden (simplified limitation of benefits, S-LOB). Third, the expansion of the international institution for the international automatic exchange of financial information. This method of interaction between tax administrations of states allows to achieve the goal of reducing the shadow economy by increasing the transparency of infor-mation on taxpayers' accounts with minimal time, material and organizational costs. The de-offshorization policy is currently yielding the expected results. The main achievements in this field include the digitalization of information data about the taxpayer, as well as the creation of a legal, organizational, technical and methodological platform for the automatic exchange of such information between public authorities within the country and with opposing states.

The reviewer draws attention to the author’s integrative interdisciplinary methodology. First of all, it is the interdisciplinarity of the research algorithm, which allowed the well-known scholar to conceptualize and present the textual embodiment of the correlation of the “text of life” by the “text of culture” in a new way. This approach allows the author to comprehend the “polygenism” of floristic components of a literary plot. The reviewer considers the creation of the concept of an original and, in many respects, innovative research practice – floropoetology – to be the main achievement of the author, a literary critic with significant research experience. The author proposes refined translations and subscripts of French and English texts, archival materials, which adds to the value of the work. The book is intended for a wide range of readers.
German Incunabula Herbals from the Russian State Library: Towards Popular Literature
Authors:   Russian State Library (Moscow, Russian Federation), Squires Catherine R. ,   Moscow State University (Moscow, Russian Federation)
Published: December 2021

Early printed herbals have a special place in the 15th-century book production as they were popular both with academics, including medical scientists and pharmacists, and with the common reader. The popular response to the mass production of herbal books made possible by the invention of printing left textual and linguistic evidence in the form of handwritten marginal notes. In the present study, six copies of illustrated herbals printed in Mainz by Peter Schoeffer in 1484 and 1485 are compared as to the subject, language and function of the marginal notes found in them. Five of these books are from the Rare Books Department of the Russian State (former Lenin) Library, the sixth copy from the Moscow University Library is used to enable better comparison. The analysis has shown that the types of marginal notes vary significantly depending on the owners’ social status, interest, background, and on the time and region. Marginal notes in Latin or Greek are considered from the point of view of their thematic (content) and chronological (dating) characteristics. As the result of many centuries of natural science, herbals were an important source of professional knowledge for academics, including medical scientists and pharmacists, of the time. Thematically, linguistically and paleographically, marginal notes of this type can be ascribed to professionals or students of natural sciences. Notes made considerably later than the incunabula era can in fact only be explained by an academic interest on the part of the reader (some notes date after 1700). Marginal notes made in German and, judging by the handwriting, dating closer to 1500 reflect work of common medical practitioners or even of lay readers, who used their herbals to cope with practical problems of their everyday life. These German marginal notes are of high interest as a source for German language history, as they contain synonymous names of plants, additional to those used in the printed text. The analysis of their form, dialect, and distribution proves that they offer valuable lexical material (regional names) in the semantic field usually scarcely documented in medieval literary texts. Those descriptions, which are indicative of region or dialect, show a distinct Southern German origin of their authors.
Vladimir Titov’s Letter to Vladimir Odoevsky as a Well-Known Response to Ivan Turgenev’s Article “Hamlet and Don Quixote” (Contemporaries’ Reception of Turgenev’s Interpretation of the Image of Hamlet)
Authors:   Tomsk State University (Tomsk, Russian Federation), Volkov Ivan O.
Published: December 2021

For the first time, in the article, Vladimir Titov’s letter (dated 12/24 February 1869) is published and commented. In the 1820s, in Russia, Titov was well-known as a writer and literature theorist, the author of a romantic novella The Remote House on Vasilyevsky Island (1829) close to Society of Lyubomudriye. The letter extracted from the archives of the National Library of Russia is addressed to Duke Vladimir Odoevsky whose relationship with Titov was friendly from the very beginning of their acquaintance. The letter focuses on Ivan Turgenev’s speech published in the first issue of Sovremennik and titled “Hamlet and Don Quixote”. Reacting to Turgenev’s article, Titov shortly and critically accesses the comparison concentrating mainly on the image of Hamlet and thoroughly expresses his opinion on the essence of his tragic state. Titov’s opinion is just the opposite of Turgenev’s complex and multidimensional interpretation. Having experienced the great impact of the philosophy of German idealism at the beginning of his career, Titov to a great extent idealizes Shakespeare’s character whom he long knows and whom he is clearly eager to vindicate. Meanwhile, Titov does not pursue the aim to absolutely advocate the romantic halo of Hamlet as a Titanic personality (grandiose intellect and scale of feeling) and to enact the tragic pathos of the inner fight only. Developing Goethe’s definition of the essence of the character’s inner conflict, Titov, on the one hand, approaches its real understanding underlying the prince’s necessity to stay in a derogatory position of a “pitiful semiclown, indecisive grouch and shred”. On the other hand, the assessment can not be absolutely objective because Titov wants to see Hamlet as a victim of the fatal fortune which turns him into a character of an almost classical tragedy of fate. Titov’s bright and developed reaction (in the document of private nature) to Turgenev’s article is attractive and important first of all for its vividly demonstrated novelty and creativity of the writer’s view, wideness and multimodality of the author’s perception of Hamlet’s image. For the first time, Turgenev gave a developed interpretation of Shakespeare’s image in the tale “Hamlet of Shchigrovsky Province” (1848). Continuing his searches in the area of “Russian” (or “steppe”) Hamlet, Turgenev creates moral and philosophical problems of the English tragedy in the crisis socio-historical and cultural atmosphere of Russia of the 1840s. However, the principles of the artistic generalization and the peculiarities of the new reading, not mentioned and not fully comprehended by his contemporaries, were surprising and rejected when the speech “Hamlet and Don Quixote” appeared, in which Shakespeare’s character is presented ultimately vividly and lively in the then current interpretation.
Features of the Publishing Industry Transformation
Authors:   Webpublishers Association (Moscow, Russian Federation), Kharitonov Vladimir V.
Published: December 2021

There are three stages in the technological history of the modern book industry as a scalable and mass production of books. The main attention is paid to the history of digital books, the beginning of which is associated not so much with the beginning of digital book production, but with the advent of digital distribution. On the technical side, this meant developing common industry standards for the digital book, building a distribution infrastructure based on the Internet, and gaining broadband access to it for the mass consumer. Equally significant were the cultural shifts that accompanied or resulted from this technical transformation. The digitalization of the book itself did not have a significant impact on the industry before the ubiquity of the Internet, since the sphere of existence of digital books was limited to a small number of qualified users. Everything changed in the first two decades of the 21st century, when the laws of the “attention economy” came into force and the mechanism of competition for the user’s time by content was activated. A digital book, on the one hand, is becoming more accessible; on the other hand, the time spent on reading books is being reduced. The development of computer technologies and the Internet, in addition to removing the barrier to access to content, removes a significant number of barriers to content publication. It is important to note that the publishing filter in the context of open publication also ceases to work in legal terms, and its disappearance led, in particular, to the emergence and rapid growth of fan fiction literature, which is in the “gray” zone of copyright. The spread of the Internet, of course, creates not only problems, but also opportunities for publishers, in particular, by changing communication with readers. The Internet has made possible not only direct communication with the reader and reader communities, but also a much more effective prompt response to readers’ requests, including those supported by compelling economic incentives. The changes that are taking place in the book industry at the third stage of technological transformation have a very heterogeneous effect on publishers in different countries, depending on the degree of market development, Internet penetration, and readers’ digital content habits. The main point is that these changes take place in very different ways in different types of book publishing. Obviously, “book”, whatever its definition one gives, is just a convenient collective format for completely different texts, materialized or embodied in digital form in different ways. At the same time, the functional purpose of the text and the way the reader treats it determine the trajectory along which the industrial niche corresponding to certain types of publications will develop, in which direction it will evolve.
The Author’s Book in the Modern Repertoire of Belarusian Publications
Authors:   Belarusian State Technological University (Minsk, Belarus), Zylevich Dina P.
Published: December 2021

The modern Belarusian author’s book still rarely attracts researchers’ attention. At the same time, the 21st century, with its attention to the form of any work, brought both “writing artists” and “drawing authors” into literature. The article aims to review author’s books presented in the repertoire of modern Belarusian publishing houses in 2014–2019. The author’s book is usually understood as an edition in which the text and design are created by one person. From the point of view of the interaction of text and illustrations, the article analyzes 20 modern author’s books issued by Belarusian authors: S. Stelmashonk, E. Popova, L. Speranskaya, V. Starikov, S. Volkov, Babushka Ira (Irina Chursina-Bednarska), V. Tkach, K. Pashkevich, A. Balzhak, K. Shtalenkova, G. Labodenko, V. Komarov, K. Mizin, T. Lisitskaya, L. Miklashevich, and others. Author’s books are included in the repertoire of the publishing houses Registr, Medyyal, Kolorgrad, Zvyazda, Entsyklapedyya imya P. Broyki, Zmitser Kolas, and Altiora – Zhivye kraski. Most of the author’s books are addressed to children of preschool and primary school age; Babushka Ira wrote her story “Virtual Brain Eater” for readers of secondary school age; K. Shtalenkova’s fantasy novel The Other Side of the Mirror is for high school students; G. Labodenko and S. Stelmashonok offer their collections to children and adults; V. Komarov, K. Mizin, L. Miklashevich, T. Lisitskaya count on an adult reader. Separately, the author discusses the book of the repressed Belarusian poet Larysa Hienijuš … To Grandchildren. Poems and Letters. Uncensored, which is decorated with illustrations by the author and released 35 years after her death. The book has an original conception, a rich reference apparatus and a highquality printing performance. The author notes that some of the modern Belarusian author’s books represent a creative experiment; however, in most publications, the text dominates the illustration both in terms of space and semantic load. The analysis of the repertoire of publications shows that the most interesting author’s books belong to the pen of those people who have an art education degree (L. Speranskaya, E. Popova, S. Stelmashonok), or are active in the field of culture and art (T. Lisitskaya, G. Labodenko). The material presented in the article suggests that the artistic and graphic genre of the author’s book is actively developing in Belarus today and is waiting for further research by art historians, philologists and publishing specialists.
От забвения до камней преткновения и обратно: анализ контроверзы вокруг калининградской брусчатки через призму прагматической социологии
Authors: Руденко Николай Иванович
Published: December 2021

Статья посвящена описанию и анализу ситуации контроверзы вокруг исторического брусчатого покрытия в городе Калининграде в 2010–2013 годах. В 2010-е годы в Калининграде начинается массовое асфальтирование улиц с немецкой брусчаткой, что вызывает недовольство и протесты горожан. Это приводит к появлению первого в городе активистского гражданского движения по защите города и исторического наследия «Спасем брусчатку!». Статья описывает условия появления этого движения, его динамику и причины исчезновения. В качестве теоретической рамки предлагается опереться на французскую традицию прагматической социологии. Так, главный фокус статьи сосредотачивается на том, как разворачивается контроверза вокруг вопроса «Сохранять или убирать историческую брусчатку с улиц города?». Обсуждается, какие ресурсы использует каждая из сторон (городская администрация и активистское движение), какие нормативные, институциональные и политические ограничения делают возможной или сужают критику действий городской администрации. В ходе исследования, опиравшегося на метод кейс-стади, были собраны 10 интервью с участниками движения, а также журналистами, архитекторами, инженерами и т.д., сделан анализ местной периодики, собраны и проанализированы посты и документы в онлайн-группе активистов. Статья показывает, что критика действий власти стала возможной благодаря СМИ, социальным сетям, обращениям к чиновникам, но при этом она была ограничена нормативными документами и административными барьерами.

Nowadays, tools for designing scientific applications often do not implement the required continuous integration capabilities of the applied software. Therefore, such overheads as the application development time and experiment execution makespan are substantially increased. In this regard, we propose a new approach to developing scientific applications and carrying out experiments with them. It is based on applying continuous integration to both the applied and system software in developing distributed applied software packages with a modular architecture using the Orlando Tools framework. Within the proposed approach, we provide integrating the Orlando Tools subsystems with the GitLab system and automating the development of package modules. At the same time, Orlando Tools fully support constructing and testing problem-solving schemes (workflows) that combine package modules located on environment resources with different computational characteristics. To this end, Orlando Tools provides the necessary configuring and setting up of computational resources. The practical significance of our study is substantial reduction overheads needed to experiment fulfillments and increase of the resource use efficiency.

Today, there are models for building an enterprise architecture (EA) in general and power engineering in particular. However, these models provide only a systematic approach to the formation of EA, but do not contain metrics, therefore, they do not allow comparing different versions of architectures, and even more so to build an optimal EA. In our works, we have proposed a technology for designing an optimal EA. The article is the development of this technology and the integration of an approach to solving complex safety issues in an accident. This technology can be applied to any enterprise using information and digital technologies.
A magyar tölgy (Quercus conferta Kit.) névadásának és leírásának viszontagságos története, az érvényes név felülvizsgálata és megváltoztatása
Authors: Bartha Dénes
Published: December 2021

A magyar tölgy tudományos nevei az elmúlt jó két évszázadban változó érvényességgel bukkantak fel a szakirodalomban. E tanulmány – a protológusok alapján – valamennyi nevet és leírást alapos elemzés alá vont, s azokat a Nemzetközi Botanikai Nevezéktannal (ICN) vetette egybe. A legfontosabb megállapítás, hogy e faj elfogadott tudományos neve nem a Quercus frainetto Ten., mert e név nyilvánosságra hozatalának éve 1815, hanem a Quercus conferta Kit., amely 1814-ben jelent meg. Több szinonim név érvénytelenül került közlésre, számos név pedig nem a magyar tölgyre vonatkozik.
THE APPLICATION OF COGNITIVE APPROACH TO DEVELOPING A SYSTEM OF EXERCISES FOR TEACHING ECONOMIC TERMS
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko national University of Kyiv, Melnik Rita
Published: December 2021

Background: The urgent problem of nowadays confronted by Ukrainian higher educational institutions is to prepare high-proficiency specialists with a good knowledge of professional English for different branches of economy. According to the cognitive approach, learning a foreign language is a conscious process that enables students to under­stand, learn and retain information in the long-term memory. Teaching professional terms to the students of economics with the help of cognitive methods is very important in studying English for professional purposes. Purpose: The aim of thearticle is to analyze the most effective methods of teaching new vocabulary, based on cognitive approach, and use them as a basis for the original system of exercises for teaching economic terms. Results: Cognitive approach to vocabulary teaching emphasizes explicit teaching of not only new words meanings but also developing metacognitive strategies that will help students work with unfamiliar words. Classroom vocabulary teaching activities are explicit in nature. The most effective vocabulary teaching strategies encom­pass building a large sight vocabulary, integrating new words with the old, providing a number of encounters with the new vo­cabulary, promoting a deep level of processing, using a variety of techniques and encouraging independent learner strategies. Implicit vocabulary teaching emphasizes the development of independent learner strategies for identifying, understanding and retaining new words in the long-term memory. One of the most effective methods of teaching economic terms is qualia structure that reveals the protean properties of the concept. Discussion: Explicit together with implicit methods of teaching vocabulary as the elements of cognitive approach could be used as a basis for the system of exercises for teaching students economic terms. We plan to develop a model of an edu­cational process for teaching economic terms based on the principles of cognitive approach.
O impacto do Covid-19 na oferta de experiências turísticas em Turismo em Espaço Rural: Um estudo exploratório
Authors: Rodrigues A.I. , Moisão A. , Amaral M.
Published: December 2021

A experiência é fundamental no turismo. O turista é uma pessoa informada, com novas necessidades e procura mais do que o descanso. Pretende uma experiência única e um serviço diferenciado, adaptado às suas necessidades. Estas novas exigências podem ser um verdadeiro desafio para as empresas no que concerne à criação e cocriação de experiências. No panorama atual, com os impactos da pandemia por Covid-19, este processo exige maior flexibilidade para continuar a proporcionar experiências memoráveis aos clientes num ambiente seguro. O objetivo deste artigo consiste em perceber os impactos da pandemia na oferta de experiências turísticas, tomando como exemplos exploratórios, unidades de Turismo em Espaço Rural (TER) do Baixo Alentejo (BA). Tendo por base um relatório de projeto de fim de curso, tomou-se como estudos de caso, duas empresas de turismo em espaço rural do Baixo Alentejo, que se destacam pelo trabalho desenvolvido na criação de experiências para os seus clientes e que foram também afetadas pela pandemia Covid-19. Através da realização de entrevistas semiestruturadas aos empresários gestores dos empreendimentos turísticos, constatou-se que os impactos mais evidentes assentaram na necessidade de adaptação e reorganização da estrutura organizacional e ao nível da procura e das atividades realizadas para grandes grupos.
Treatment for Ocular Adnexal Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue (OA-MALT) Lymphoma
Authors: Takeuchi Kazuto , Yakushijin Yoshihiro
Published: December 2021

Ocular adnexal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (OA-MALT) lymphoma is one of the B lymphoid malignancies that originates in the orbit and shows indolent progression with a predominantly localized stage. Radiotherapy appears to be recognized as the most common treatment for localized OA-MALT lymphoma. Surgical resection, eradication of Chlamydia psittaci (C. psittaci) based on the reports of the existence of C. psittaci DNA, and ‘watchful waiting’ are also selected in some cases. Systemic immunochemotherapies including anti-CD20 antibodies may be another option for advanced stages of OA-MALT lymphoma. However, due to the lower frequency of this disease and the difficulty of conducting large-scale clinical trials, no randomized, controlled trial evaluating these treatments has been reported. Therefore, the optimal treatment strategy for OA-MALT lymphoma has not been established. This review provides an update on treatments and discusses the appropriate treatment for OA-MALT lymphoma.
The Return on Investment from Rapid DNA Testing of Sexual Assault Kits
Authors: Speaker Paul , Wells Regina
Published: December 2021

The growing queue for DNA analysis in crime laboratories has prevented the analysis from providing investigative leads as turnaround time has grown, limiting the analytical results to a confirmatory role in the courtroom. Rapid DNA technology offers an opportunity to employ an automated system for the development of a DNA profile. The Rapid DNA technology permits a police booking station to take a buccal swab obtained from an arrestee, acquire a DNA profile, and test that profile against a DNA database, all while the arrestee remains in police custody during the booking process. Rapid DNA technologies are a capital-intensive system enabling sophisticated equipment designed for operation by individuals with limited technical training to provide investigative leads with immediate support. We present the testing of rapid DNA technology in a trial program conducted by the Kentucky State Police Forensic Laboratory. The Kentucky test confirms the efficacy of the rapid DNA testing as consistent with the findings from traditional laboratory testing. The economic analysis related to testing indicates that the time saving from the rapid DNA analysis yields benefits that far outweigh the costs from the change in technology.
Original Findings Confirmed in Replication Study: Provocation with 2.4 GHz Cordless Phone affects the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) as measured by Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
Authors: Havas Magda , Marrongelle Jeffrey
Published: December 2021

This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled replication of a study that we previously conducted in Colorado with 25 subjects designed to test the effect of radio frequency radiation (RFR) generated by the base station of a cordless phone on heart rate variability (HRV). In this study, we analyzed the response of 69 subjects between the ages of 26 and 80 in both Canada and the USA. Subjects were exposed to radiation for 3-min intervals generated by a 2.4-GHz cordless phone base station (3–8 microW/cm2). Prior to provocation we conducted an orthostatic test to assess the state of adrenal exhaustion, which interferes with a person’s ability to mount a response to a stressor. A few participants had a severe reaction to the RFR with an increase in heart rate and altered HRV indicative of an alarm response to stress. Based on the HRV analyses of the 69 subjects, 7% were classiﬁed as being “moderately to very sensitive”, 29% were “little to moderately sensitive”, 30% were “not to a little sensitive” and 6% were “unknown”. These results are not psychosomatic and are not due to electromagnetic interference. Twenty-ﬁve percent of the subjects’ self-proclaimed sensitivity corresponded to that based on the HRV analysis, while 32% overestimated their sensitivity and 42% did not know whether or not they were electrically sensitive. Of the 39 participants who claimed to experience some electrical hypersensitivity, 36% claimed they also reacted to a cordless phone and experienced heart symptoms and, of these, 64% were classiﬁed as having some degree of electrohypersensitivity (EHS) based on their HRV response. Novel ﬁndings include documentation of a delayed response to radiation. This protocol underestimates the reaction to electromagnetic radiation and may provide a false negative for those with a delayed reaction and/or with adrenal exhaustion. Orthostatic HRV testing combined with provocation testing may provide a useful diagnostic tool for some sufferers of EHS when they are exposed to electromagnetic radiation. It can be used to confirm EHS but not to reject EHS as a diagnosis since not everyone with EHS has an ANS reaction to electromagnetic radiation.

Background: Ageing is an inevitable process and a person aged 60 years or above is often referred to as ‘elderly’. Older age is characterized by emergence of several complex health states that tend to occur only later in life and that do not fall into discrete disease categories. These are commonly called as geriatric syndromes. The aim of the study was to estimate the prevalence of functional limitations among the elderly and to determine the association between functional limitations and morbidity pattern among the elderly residing in urban area in Ernakulam district, Kerala.Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was carried out among 302 elderly participants by using cluster sampling technique in two urban areas of Ernakulam. The structured questionnaire included socio-demographic details, diagnosed morbidities and modified Barthel index to assess functional limitations.Results: The overall prevalence of functional limitations was 22.4% among the elderly. Functional limitations were significantly associated with acid peptic diseases, constipation, kidney disorder, urinary tract infection, arthritis/joint pain, visual impairment, senile deafness and edentulous mouth.Conclusions: In our study 22.4% of the elderly had some form of functional limitations in terms of difficulties in performing basic ADL. Association of functional limitations and different type of morbidities were found in acid peptic diseases, constipation, kidney disorder, urinary tract infection, arthritis/joint pain, visual impairment, senile deafness showed statistically significant. Individuals who had edentulous mouth was also found to be statistically significant.

In the current practice, evidence shows that the currently used irrigant solutions (including sodium hypochlorite combined with and without chlorhexidine or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) cannot achieve full cleaning outcomes of the root canal. Accordingly, recent approaches were directed to innovate more efficacious modalities that can overcome the limitations of manual instrumentation and irrigation solutions. In this context, ultrasonic irrigation has been described in the literature as a favorable approach with significantly enhanced outcomes. We have provided evidence regarding the use of ultrasonic irrigation in endodontics. Our findings indicate that passive ultrasonic irrigation is more effective than manual instrumentation in eradicating debris and achieving favorable disinfection. Besides, it has been evidenced that the modality significantly reduces the time to achieve favorable treatment outcomes compared with the traditional approaches. It has been furtherly shown that more favorable outcomes were associated with the combined use of passive ultrasonic irrigation with manual instrumentation. Therefore, it has been suggested that manual instrumentation should be used at the initial phase to achieve adequate preparation, and passive ultrasonic irrigation should be used later on to achieve root canal cleaning.

Functional forces might also lead to fracture after endodontic treatment. This might occur secondary to exposure to erosion, abrasion, physical trauma, and caries. Interventing against these events can be achieved by conducting long follow-up periods and enhancing the endodontic treatment approaches. The current endodontic treatment modalities aim at tissue preservation to enhance resistance to fractures and prevent potential post-treatment complications. In this context, evidence shows the validity of minimally invasive modalities in endodontic treatment with favorable outcomes and reduced frequency of complications. In the present literature review, we have discussed the efficacy of minimally invasive biological treatment in endodontics. It is vital to maintain the integrity of the structures of the tooth-related paracervical area, particularly when treating molars. This is attributed to enhancing the long-term survival rates of the pericervical dentin of these teeth. The current trends represent a revolution in the field of endodontic treatment. This is attributed to the novel development of the various disinfection modalities, which do not need to shape the canal into a round form and induce flaring reactions. Overall, the main advantages of vital pulp therapy include being simple, reduced cost, and reduced risk of treatment-related complications secondary to overcoming the difficulties with the anatomy of the root canals.

Restoring the Self in the Language of Beauty and Balance: Esther Belin’s Of Cartography
Authors: Bańka Ewelina
Published: December 2021

The article analyzes the collection of poetry, Of Cartography, by Navajo poet and visual artist Esther G. Belin. In the collection, the poet explores the concepts of home and the self, merging her urban experience with traditional Navajo teachings. Written in a mixture of English and Navajo, the collection abounds in experimental poems with structure directly referring to the Navajo view of the cosmic reality. Grounded both in the Navajo philosophy of Beauty and Balance and modern, urban experience, Belin’s story can be interpreted as a healing rite that aims at restoring hózhǫ́: an ideal Navajo way of life which centers on the spiritual, physical, emotional, and psychological well-being of an individual and his/her community.

The aim of the article is to discuss Dorothy Allison’s novel Cavedweller (1998) in terms of the narrative strategies of doubling. The novel features Delia, a woman who returns to the South with her daughter, Cissy, to reconnect with the rest of her family. While Delia’s return to her hometown meets with social ostracism, her daughter manages to find a sense of identity and belonging in the underground caves in Georgia. The two parallel stories of homecoming are presented by Allison through the images of doubling, which help her to confront regional traumas and tensions of the South.
Encounters with the Self: Women’s Travel Experience in Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat, Pray, Love and Cheryl Strayed’s Wild
Authors: Rutkowska Małgorzata
Published: December 2021

This article examines representations of women’s travel experience in Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman’s Search for Everything across Italy, India and Indonesia (2007) and Cheryl Strayed’s Wild. A Journey from Lost to Found (2012). Both authors rely on and, at the same time, subvert generic conventions of masculine and feminine traveling while creating their narrative personas. Alluding to pre-modern cultural meanings of travel and adopting the roles of spiritual pilgrims, the authors renounce their former lives, examine their past mistakes, undergo a transformation and finally regain control of their lives. Paradoxically, though going on a journey is a prerequisite for self-redemption, travel is no longer represented in these texts as an encounter and confrontation with the outer world but rather as a solipsistic practice.
The impact of COVID-19 pandemic on divorce rates among Indonesian Muslim societies
Authors: Rais Isnawati
Published: December 2021

This study aims to look at the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on divorce rates in Indonesia. Few months after the outbreak, the media reported the increasing rate of divorce. Some authorities and researchers have taken this information for granted; therefore, their responses can be misleading. This socio-legal study confronts the media reports with the statistical data on divorce case numbers received by the Religious (Islamic) Courts and the Religious Courts judges’ explanation about the issue. This study finds out that the one-year period (2020) of the COVID-19 pandemic has not influenced the rates of divorce cases submitted to the court. Social mobility restrictions and the inadequate use of the E-Court facility to enhance courts’ performance are among the causes of the crowding of divorce applicants. This implies that the current COVID-19 pandemic has little impact on divorce dynamics despite its significant influence on households’ economic instability and the increasing of domestic violence cases. With a more careful response to the media report, the authorities will be able to address the real issues faced by many households and the judiciary.
