Problems and prospects of decarbonization of road transport in the Russian Federation
Authors: Trofimenko Yu. V.
Published: January 2024

On the way of decarbonization of certain sectors of the economy, new types of climate risks arise, and associated losses as a result of actions by the public and private sectors aimed at containing these changes, and not at adapting industries to climate change. Measures for decarbonization of motor transport are considered. The most effective of them in the medium term are measures to diversify the use of natural gas, traction electric drive and hydrogen fuel cells as energy sources. The key organizational, technological and economic problems that hinder the widespread use of these alternative energy sources in road transport are highlighted. The requirements for achieving the competitiveness of cars with traction electric drive and hydrogen fuel cells in comparison with oil-fueled cars are formulated.

It has been established that the total gross GHG emissions of the Russian vehicle fleet in 2050, the expected number of which will decrease from 59.8 to 51.7 million units compared to 2021, may amount to 126.8 million tons of CO2 equivalent, which is 28.5 % less than in 2021. Compared to previous projections, the value of total GHG emissions from the vehicle fleet in 2050 will lag behind by about 5 years. At the same time, the vehicle fleet in 2050 will be dominated by automatic telephone exchanges with internal combustion engines on hydrocarbon fuels (liquid, gaseous). Only after 2045, the share of sales of electric vehicles of all types can exceed the share of sales of these types of automatic telephone exchanges with internal combustion engines [1].

Published: January 2024

Today, about 59,000 km of specialised high-speed railway lines are in operation worldwide, about 20,000 km are under construction, and more than 50,000 km are planned to be commissioned. The maximum commercial speed of passenger trains has increased to 350 km/h. The world’s first high-speed freight trains have been designed and put into trial operation. Mastering advanced technologies in the field of high-speed railway transport, as before, is an indicator of the country’s development level. The construction of high-speed lines (HSL), along with others, solves an important problem on a global scale — it makes a significant contribution to environmental protection.

We used the materials of reports and papers published on foreign information platforms; the results of the research work of Russian scientists and engineers in the field of increasing train speeds.

In the BRICS countries, construction and design work on high-speed railways is underway, but given the unique conditions of each country, the pace of development is different. China is the leader of scientific progress in this sector of the railway industry, which attracts the attention of the world scientific community, including the Russian one.

In Russia, according to the Transport Strategy up to 2030 with a forecast for the period up to 2035, it is envisaged to develop a network of high-speed railway lines with the unification of the largest agglomerations of the European part of the country into zones of two-hour accessibility.

It is necessary to continue study and improve knowledge in the field of high-speed railway transport development.

Published: January 2024

Due to the natural energy sources used in constructed wetlands, minimal energy and chemicals are required for wastewater treatment. For the successful wastewater treatment via constructed wetlands, adequate pretreatment and a sufficient amount of oxygen are crucial. Constructed wetlands can be used to treat industrial wastewater, such as wastewater from the dairy industry, with prior degreasing. This study was conducted on a horizontal flow pilot constructed wetland located on a plot of land used by the Biotechnical Faculty in Bihać. The constructed wetland consisted of two fields planted with rushes (Typha latifolia) and reeds (Phragmites australis). The substrate and plants were not changed during the experimental period. We monitored the efficiency of industrial wastewater treatment (wastewater from the dairy industry) by season, varying the flow rate as well as the hydraulic retention time of the water in the device. The quality of the influent and effluent was monitored by determining analytical parameters. The constructed wetland showed the highest efficiency in the summer period, with a hydraulic retention time of 6 days, with removal efficiencies of 98.03% for ammonia, 98.19% for total nitrogen, 95.27% for total phosphorous, 94.50% for COD and 97.73% for BOD5. The organic substance removal efficiency across all four seasons was 94.68%.

Authors: ELRAHIM ELSHAIMAA ABD , AHMED ISLAM IBRAHIM
Published: January 2024

This work aims to investigate a pottery vessel from eastern EIN-Shams, Egypt, lying in sandy soil from citizen lands, returning to the New Kingdom-Egypt. This pottery vessel was covered with white material from inside and outside. In terms of origin, this vessel is made of buff-colored clay; it has big pores, many cracks, and large missing areas filled with that material, with an uneven surface texture, that strongly bonds with the body pores, and shrinks away from the edges in some areas, in this way obscuring the original surface. In this respect, several physicochemical investigations in terms of chemical composition, physical properties, and nature of this white material were performed, to analyze the influence of it on the ancient pottery vessel. The analytical methods used in this research were USB digital microscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX), and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The results of the USB digital microscopy showed the presence of gypsum crystals, large, flaked pottery surfaces, and quartz. SEM-EDX revealed the presence of organic fibers, chloride salts in a significant percentage, iron, and aluminum oxides. XRD investigation emphasizes the presence of gypsum and sodium chloride salts. DTA results revealed that the firing temperatures of the pottery vessel range between around 750-800°C.
PESTICIDE RESIDUE SCREENING IN CITRUS FRUITS BASED ON GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY-TANDEM MASS SPECTROMETRY AND HEALTH RISK ASSESSMENT
Authors: MINEA BRADUT – BOGDAN , RADULESCU CRISTIANA
Published: January 2024

Lately, there is maximum concern in most states, all over the world, regarding the levels of pesticide residues in food products, considering their chemical properties with direct implications on human health. Many studies have shown that the adverse effects of cumulative exposure to multiple pesticide residues are far more severe than any single exposure. Statistically, the number of food alerts generated by the presence of pesticide residues in fruits on the market, between 2017 and 2021, as well as the situation related to the number of imports and intra-EU trade that took place during the same period was highlighted. This study aims to analyze pesticide residue levels in citrus fruits (i.e., lemons, grapefruit, and orange) imported from non-EU and EU countries, comparative with maximum residue limits (MRLs) provided by Regulation 2005/396/EC, to assess if intake levels pose a long-term risk to human health. The citrus samples collected from ten markets (retail and storage areas) in Romania, were prepared according to the procedure provided by EN 15662:2008 standard. The concentration of pesticide residues from citrus samples was determined by Gas Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). The results obtained by GC-MS/MS showed that from 52 citrus samples, 41 samples contained pesticide residues with values between 0.005 and 2.700 mg/kg, and several samples contained forbidden active substances (e.g., spirodiclofen and o-phenylphenol). The pesticide detection rate of the samples was 78.84%. The most frequently detected pesticides according to obtained results were imazalil, thiabendazole, pyrimethanil, pyraclostrobin, fludioxonil, as well as spirodiclofen and o-phenylphenol. The samples with the most detected active substances are from imports outside of the European Union. In addition, in several samples, simultaneously occurred four or even five mixed pesticide residues, hazardous to human health. This study shows that the presence of pesticide residues is constant in citrus fruits due to phytosanitary treatments carried out on crops in the development phase as well as on fruits in the storage phase treatments (e.g. insecticides, fungicides, etc.).

Published: January 2024

Mud crabs (Scylla genus) are luxury foods in high demand internationally. The efficient techniques for mud crab hatcheries are vital for providing breeds for their aquaculture, which is rapidly growing in many countries. This study aims to investigate the effects of different feeds and stocking densities on mud crabs’ growth and survival rates (Scylla paramamosain) in the stage from megalopa to crablet-1 stage. Two separate experiments were conducted indoors in the 60-liter round plastic tanks (containing 50 liters of water at a 28‰ salinity). Experiment 1 investigated four feeds: frozen Artemia biomass, pureed shrimp meat, Lansy pellet feed (48% protein), and NRD pellet feed (55% protein). Megalopae (mean weight of 5.8 mg) were stocked at a density of 10/L. In experiment 2, the megalopae (mean weight of 5.4 mg) were stocked at densities of 20, 30, and 40/L and were fed the Lansy pellet feed, which was the best one selected from experiment 1. High survival rates were obtained at all four feeds (82.2–87.5%) and three stocking densities (88.4–90.1%). The growth performances in Lansy feed and frozen Artemia biomass were better than those in pureed shrimp meat and NRD pellet feed, which was seen through higher indicators of daily weight gain (DWG) and specific growth rate in weight (SGRw) (p < 0.05). Despite the survival rate showing no significant difference among the feeds, their highest value (87.5%) was observed in the Lansy pellet feed. On the other hand, the growth performances showed a significant decrease at stocking densities ≥ 30/L, as complemented by a significant decrease in DWG and SGRw at these stocking densities (p < 0.05). Both survival rate and metamorphosis durations did not show significant differences among the feeds or stocking densities (p > 0.05). The investigated feeds and stocking densities suit the nursing mud crab (S. paramamosain) megalopa. In contrast, the Lansy pellet feeds had a stocking density of 20/L, resulting in the highest nursing efficiency.

Published: January 2024

This study aims to assess the South Korean work culture implemented at WITCON Co., Ltd., its impact on enhancing employee performance, and the extent of its influence. This form of research employs a blend of quantitative and qualitative methodologies, sometimes called mixed methods. WITCON Co., Ltd. is at 35 Seochangnamsunhwan-ro 215beon-gil, Namdong-gu, Incheon, Republic of Korea. The acquired data is primarily classed as independent and dependent variables. Work culture is an independent variable, meaning it can influence other variables. On the other hand, employee performance is classified as a dependent variable, meaning other variables impact it. Both variables were measured using instruments in a questionnaire comprising multiple questions, which were subsequently employed to collect participant data. The poll was administered to the whole foreigner workers at WITCON, comprising 30 people with E-7 and E-9 visas. Hence, the approach employed to examine this study’s findings involves utilizing multiple regression analysis. Multiple linear regression is a regression model that incorporates multiple independent variables. Multiple linear regression analysis is conducted to ascertain the magnitude and direction of the independent variable’s impact on the dependent variable. Furthermore, a Sobel test is conducted to ascertain the statistical significance of the indirect influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable via the mediator variable in a mediation model. The findings indicate that South Korea’s work culture prioritizes the enforcement of discipline in order to attain objectives while still being adaptable and accepting.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical manifestations and survival of patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA).

Methods. A retrospective study included 166 patients with newly diagnosed GCA. Clinical, laboratory and instrumental data, three sets of classification criteria were used to confirm the diagnosis: the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 1990, the revised ACR criteria of 2016 and/or the new ACR and European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) 2022 criteria. Some of the patients underwent instrumental investigations: temporal artery ultrasound Doppler (n=61), contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) (n=5), CT angiography (n=6), magnetic resonance imaging (n=4), magnetic resonance angiography (n=3) and 18F-FDG positron emission tomography/CT (n=47). Overall and recurrence-free survival were analyzed using survival tables, Kaplan – Meier method.

Results. The most frequent first manifestations of GCA were headache (81.8%), weakness (64%), fever (63.8%) and symptoms of rheumatic polymyalgia (56.6%). Changes of temporal arteries in color duplex scanning were detected in 44 out of 61 patients. GCs therapy was performed in all patients who agreed to be treated (n=158), methotrexate was used in 49 out of 158 patients, leflunomide – in 9 patients. In 45 (28.5%) out of 158 patients a stable remission was achieved as a result of GCs monotherapy, in 120 (75.9%) patients long-term maintenance therapy with GCs was required to prevent exacerbations, including 71 (44.9%) patients – in combination with methotrexate or other immunosuppressive drugs. The follow-up period of patients with a history of relapses was 21.0 (8.0–54.0) months. Relapses developed in 73 (46.2%) patients. The overall one-year survival rate was 97.1% [95% confidence interval (CI): 94.3; 99.9], and the five-year survival rate of patients was 94.6% [95% CI: 90.2; 99.0]. The one-year relapse-free survival rate was 86.4% [95% CI: 80.5; 92.3], and the five-year relapse-free survival rate was 52.4% [95% CI: 42.0; 62.8]. 12 (7.2%) of 166 patients died. The cause of death was myocardial infarction in two patients, stroke in two patients, and breast cancer in one patient; in the remaining seven cases, the cause of death was not determined.

Conclusion. Given the high frequency of disease exacerbation, patients with GCA require long-term follow-up, especially during the first year after diagnosis.

Published: January 2024

Gout is the most common chronic autoinflammatory disease, the development of which is associated with persistent hyperuricemia caused by both environmental and genetic factors, which leads to the deposition of sodium monourate crystals in various tissues and organs of the human body. Gout is more common in men than in women of childbearing age, due to the uricosuric effect of estrogen, however, after menopause, the incidence of gout in women increases significantly. At the onset of the disease, the first metatarsophalangeal joint, ankle and knee joints are most often involved in the pathological process. However, there are isolated reports in the literature about a rare gout lesion of the axial skeleton, for example, the sacroiliac joint, in which the nature of the pain syndrome, magnetic resonance imaging, and X-ray picture can mimic spondyloarthritis. The article presents a rare case of damage to the axial skeleton in a 57-year-old patient with gout, manifested by acute inflammatory back pain and arthritis of the lower extremities.

Published: January 2024

Kidney-pancreas transplantation is the preferable therapeutic option for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and end-stage kidney disease. We describe the case of a 35-year-old pancreas-kidney transplant recipient with dual-graft failure that presents with massive hematochezia and hemodynamic instability, evolving into hemorrhagic shock. The diagnostic assessment revealed a fistula between a pseudoaneurysm of the right common iliac artery and the adjacent transplanted duodenum segment, a rare but life-threatening cause of gastrointestinal bleeding in these patients. An endoprosthesis was placed into the iliac artery, prophylactic antibiotics were instituted, and a pancreatic transplantectomy was performed in a second procedure. This case highlights that the diagnostic workup of gastrointestinal bleeding in pancreas-kidney transplant recipients must include the possibility of arterio-enteric fistulas, which is more frequent in the presence of pancreatic graft failure, as was the case of our patient. Endovascular exclusion is the advocated treatment. Pancreatic graft transplantectomy could also be a possible approach for patients with a failed pancreas but it is highly controversial due to potential risks.

Published: January 2024

The article examines one of the controversial issues in law enforcement practice, the issue of initiating the appeal procedure by the appellate court as a whole, as well as the impact of this appeal process on changing the scope of the rights of the convicted person. The author comes to the conclusion that any appeal review is initiated by the parties, and only when the relevant appeal requirements are met, the mechanism of appeal proceedings is launched, in which the public principle is manifested in such procedural guarantees as ensuring the right to defense, the right to appeal and the ban on worsening the situation of the convicted person. The author has developed theoretical provisions and given recommendations of a law enforcement nature, aimed at clarifying the procedure for initiating the appeal process, and proposes his own approach to understanding the appeal mechanism using the example of a comparative analysis of existing criminal procedural rules in various states.

Published: January 2024

the author of the article, based on a theoretical analysis of scientific works on the use of video conferencing in criminal proceedings, examines the procedural procedure for organizing and conducting investigative actions using video conferencing. It is noted that a number of problems remain related to the imperfection of the current legislation in terms of the production of investigative actions using video conferencing systems, and therefore, as a way to obtain evidence, Article 189.1 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation is rarely practiced. The author’s position was formulated regarding the adoption of a procedural decision by the investigator, the investigator of the relevant decision with the indication of specific grounds that determine the possibility of conducting investigative actions through a video conference call. Attention is paid to the content of a written order of an official on the organization of participation in the investigative action of a person whose participation in this investigative action is considered necessary. Proposals have been made to improve law enforcement practice on the procedural procedure for organizing and conducting investigative actions “remotely.”

The main directions of improving the institution of procedural costs in criminal proceedings, designed to partially compensate for the burden on the federal budget, in terms of cross-sectoral unification for the formation of a unified regulatory framework, are investigated. Solved problem. Despite the close attention of the legislator and the higher courts to the relevant norms of law, their systematic interpretation and application still causes difficulties, overcoming which necessitates an in-depth and interdisciplinary analysis of this legal institution. It is proved that for the correct interpretation and implementation of the rules on procedural costs, the expansion of the practice of using this institution, as well as the minimization of judicial errors, it is necessary to form a unified regulatory framework for regulating legal relations. Research methods. The methods of comparative law, as well as general and special (analysis and synthesis, logical, special legal) are applied. Conclusion. The conclusion is presented that in order to form the normative unity of the institution of procedural costs, it is necessary to legislate the court’s authority to reduce the amount of procedural costs, the deadline for filing an application to the court for reimbursement of costs incurred, to extend the principles of cost allocation for all types of litigation, taking into account the differentiation of compensation and recovery mechanisms, to form uniform criteria for determining the amount for payment of expenses for representative.

Authors:   The Foodservice Management Society Of Korea, Kim Dong-Jin
Published: January 2024

The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of a fresh food platform on users' technology acceptance model, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, trust, customer satisfaction, and repurchase intention. As a result of the verification, perceived ease of use was found to have a significant effect on perceived usefulness. In the technology acceptance model, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use were found to have a significant effect on trust and customer satisfaction. Trust was found to have an effect on customer satisfaction, and customer satisfaction was found to have a significant effect on repurchase intention. It was found that trust had a mediating effect in the relationship between technology acceptance theory and customer satisfaction. Through this study, we reconfirmed the relationship between fresh food platform users' trust in the technology acceptance model, customer satisfaction, and repurchase intention. In other words, this suggests that consumers build trust based on the perceived ease and usefulness of fresh food platforms, and when they are satisfied, this can lead to repurchase intention.

Currently, the problem of excessive income inequality of the population as one of the forms of social inequality remains unresolved. At the same time, modern scientific research notes the negative social and economic consequences of inequality for the life of society, its development and sustainability. The article evaluates the degree of inequality of monetary incomes of the population in the Republic of Bashkortostan, including against the background of interregional income inequality in the context of the level of socioeconomic development of the regions of Russia. To identify the relationship between the level of inequality and the socio-economic development of the regions, statistical tools were used — analytical grouping. The results of the study showed that in the Republic of Bashkortostan taking into account the level of its socioeconomic development the degree of income inequality of the population is quite high, which requires the development of urgent regional policy measures aimed at equalizing the incomes of the population.

In the modern world, the struggle of companies for technology and means of production is giving way to the struggle for human resources. The development of human capital becomes the path to acquiring competitive advantages, since it is the company’s employees, showing a creative, constructive, innovative approach to solving the problems facing the enterprise, who make technologies and equipment work with maximum productivity. The article analyzes the modern approach to the development of human capital of a company. Theoretical aspects of the problem are compared with Russian practice of human capital development in large and successful IT companies. Attention to the IT sector is not accidental: in the conditions of intense non-price competition that is emerging here, companies must provide the highest quality of services, which cannot be achieved without attracting the best specialists in the field of information technology. The examples discussed show that success in business is impossible without taking into account the human factor, without investing in the development of human capital, which includes, among other things, training employees, creating comfortable working conditions, professional and career growth.

The subject of the study is the regional healthcare system. The purpose of the study is the problems and prospects for the development of rural medicine in the Republic of Bashkortostan. The objectives of the study are to consider problems, analyze the current state and identify prospects for the development of healthcare in rural areas. Novelty of the research: the ranking of the main indicators of the functioning of rural medical institutions of the Republic of Bashkortostan in the context of the Russian Federation and the regions of the Volga Federal District was carried out. Conclusions: The reasons for the deterioration of the demographic situation in rural areas are low birth rates, high mortality, migration outflow of the rural population (intraregional, interregional, intercountry), reduction in the female population of reproductive age in comparison with urban ones, etc. One of the significant factors that has a negative impact The impact on the demographic situation in rural areas is also the state of health care in municipalities. Along with federal support, regional authorities need their own initiatives to attract and retain medical specialists in rural areas and improve the quality of medical services provided.

COVID-19 has become a global challenge that has had a strong impact on the global economy. Travel bans, lockdowns, business closures and the cessation of international trade have led to a serious drop in GDP and rising unemployment. The pandemic has caused serious problems in industries such as tourism, restaurants, aviation and hotels. Small and medium-sized enterprises have been particularly affected. Financial markets have also experienced instability and significant losses. In order to quickly return to stability and accelerate the recovery, many countries have taken economic stimulus measures, such as increasing public investment, lowering taxes and providing financial support to companies and households. However, the long-term prospects remain uncertain. Sudden jumps in the disease and the emergence of new variants of the virus are possible, which may entail new restrictions and negatively affect the economy.

The most important thing covered by our research entitled: “The Babylonian King Nabonaidh's Campaign on the Northwest of the Arabian Peninsula”: Presenting the reasons that led the Babylonian King Nabonaid to invade the northwestern Arabian Peninsula. The repercussions of the religious movement that Nabonaid wanted to spread the worship of the god Sin throughout his empire, or his need for a location away from his predatory enemies, or forces that support him in confronting them, as well as the economic importance of Tayma, especially as a trade route that the Babylonians seek to expand with the western regions After the Medes blocked them from the eastern and northern trade routes, their control over Iran and Asia Minor... etc of the reasons, the research also presented the progress of the campaign, and the most important areas that it reached, the most important centers of which are: Tema (Taima), iatribu (Yathrib), Hiibraa (Khaybar) and others These centers became important cities and towns after that, as the campaign left a number of monuments, the most important of which are: the inscriptions, whether on the obelisks or on the rocks, whose languages and fonts differed according to the background of their bloggers, and other remnants of this period. Mallah: A large well and remnants of a wall were found around the city of Tayma, with various archaeological finds and the remains of buildings whose function was not accurately identified, but it is likely that one of them was for a temple and another for a palace or an administrative building
Deep Learning Techniques for Brain Lesion Classification Using Various MRI (from 2010 to 2022): Review and Challenges
Authors: Joshi Meenal , Singh Bhupesh Kumar
Published: January 2024

Brain tumors are conditions brought on by the development of aberrant brain cells. They are classified into non-cancerous (benign) and cancerous (malignant). The morbidity and mortality of brain tumors are challenging to determine. A study in the United Kingdom disclosed that around 15 out of every 100 individuals with brain cancer could survive for ten or more years after being diagnosed. The remedial maneuvers of the brain tumors depend upon the kind of brain tumor, degree of cellular abnormality, location of Cancer in the brain, and other variables. The treatment decision needs assistance from the Deep learning algorithms using magnetic resonance imaging (M.R.I.) data to diagnose brain tumors due to the high dimensionalities of the remedial maneuvers. MRI is a scanning technique that uses strong radio waves and strong magnetic fields to generate detailed images of the body's interior. The study employed deep learning models to detect the tumor region in brain M.R.I. scans, including a Convolutional Neural Network model. The proposed processes involved dataset modification and preprocessing, detection, identification, and classification via CNN. Data mining techniques were utilized to uncover significant relationships and patterns from the data, resulting in successful early brain lesion identification and classification using deep learning approaches.

Published: January 2024

In this article, a generalized form of the Balakrishnan-alpha-skew-normal distribution of Hazarika et al. (2020) is proposed and some of its simple and distributional properties are studied. Two characterizations have also been presented. For model selection criteria namely Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), are used to check appropriateness of the proposed distribution by conducting data fitting experiments and comparing it with some other related distributions. The likelihood ratio test is employed for discriminating between nested models.
