Background: Stretch marks, or striae distensile, are a prevalent dermatological concern affecting a significant portion of the Saudi population. This study investigates the prevalence of stretch marks and associated risk factors, providing numerical insights into demographic, lifestyle, and health-related considerations.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 1,329 participants from diverse regions of Saudi Arabia. Data collectors facilitated the distribution of an e-questionnaire focusing on demographic characteristics, stretch mark features, risk factors, and comorbidities. Analyses employed descriptive statistics and inferential tests, emphasizing the prevalence of stretch marks and factors contributing to their development.
Results: Among participants, 912 reported the presence of stretch marks, yielding a prevalence of 68.6% in the Saudi population. Demographically, 66.6% of individuals with stretch marks fell within the 15-25 age group, with 87.8% being female. White-colored stretch marks dominated (87.0%), primarily on the thighs (56.7%) and abdomen (44.2%). Risk factors included a family history of stretch marks (75.5%) and various comorbidities such as obesity (21.1%), hypertension (2.2%), and diabetes mellitus (2.3%). Pregnancy-related factors indicated an average of 0.67 pregnancies, with 34.5% reporting a family history of striae gravidarum. Moisturization during pregnancy was common (78.7%), with 75.7% noting improvement. Body mass index categories revealed that 45.9% of participants with stretch marks had a normal weight, 25.9% were overweight, and 17.5% were obese.
Conclusion: This study presents numerical evidence of the high prevalence of stretch marks among the Saudi population and identifies key risk factors associated with their development. The multifaceted nature of stretch marks, encompassing demographic, genetic, and health-related factors, underscores the need for comprehensive preventive strategies.

Evaluating the Geotechnical Properties of Stabilized Problematic Soil by Utilizing Reed Ash and Lime Mixture
Authors: Majeed Zaid H. , Jafer Hassnen M. , Jawad Ibtehaj T.
Published: July 2024

Stabilization of problematic soil poses a significant challenge in civil engineering projects, especially in regions with prevalent soft clay soils. This study was carried out to study the impact of using a blend of reed ash and lime on improving and stabilizing problematic soil. A sample of soil was obtained from a location in the south of Iraq, specifically in Al-Muthanna Governorate. The treatment involved adding different proportions of reed ash (3%, 5%, 7%, and 9.0% of the soil's dry weight) along with 5% lime, which was determined as the optimal percentage based on previous research. Various laboratory tests were conducted to assess the characteristics of the treated soil, including compaction and unconfined compressive strength (UCS). The findings indicated a notable enhancement in UCS and the maximum dry density (MDD). It was observed that UCS and MDD increased with increasing the reed ash and lime mixture proportion, reaching an optimal level. Beyond this percentage, the strength started to decline. It was found that the incorporation of lime and reed ash (5% lime and 7% reed ash) into the treated soil significantly improved its strength, up to about 10 times compared to untreated soil after 28 days of curing. This approach offers additional benefits, such as reducing environmental pollution by decreasing CO2 emissions during phases of production and providing cost savings because of the affordability of the materials used.

Intermolecular Proton Transfer Enabled Reactive CO2 Capture by the Malononitrile Anion
Authors: Li Bo , Fu Yuqing , Yang Zhenzhen , Dai Sheng , Jiang De-en
Published: July 2024

Task-specific ionic liquids employing carbanions represent a new class of ionic liquids for carbon capture. The deprotonated malononitrile carbanion, [CH(CN)2]−, has shown close to equimolar capacity for reactive CO2 capture. Although formation of the [C(CN)2COOH]− carboxylic acid was found to be the final product, how the hydrogen atom on the [CH(CN)2]− carbanion transfers to the carboxylate group as a proton is unclear. In this work, we employ density-functional-theory calculations with an implicit solvation model to investigate the proton transfer mechanisms in forming carboxylic acid from the reaction of the [CH(CN)2]− carbanion with CO2. We find that the intramolecular proton-transfer pathway in [CH(CN)2COO]− to form [C(CN)2COOH]− is unlikely due to the high energy barrier of 152 kJ/mol. Instead, the intermolecular proton transfer pathway between two [CH(CN)2COO]− anions is more feasible to form two molecules of [C(CN)2COOH]−, with a significantly lower activation energy of 50 kJ/mol. Moreover, the [C(CN)2COOH]− dimer is further stabilized by the intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the two -COOH groups in the Z-configuration of the π-conjugated planar geometry. The insight of reactive CO2 capture enabled by intermolecular proton transfer will be useful in designing novel carbanions and ionic liquids for carbon capture and conversion.

Information on the spawning migration and habitat use of migratory fish is critical to protect and restore threatened or endangered populations. Twenty-two individuals of three species, namely Labeobarbus platydorsus, L. megastoma, and L. truttiformis, were implanted with radio tags to study their spawning migration in the Gumara River and its tributaries between July and October of 2018 to 2021. Fourteen individuals were found at least twice throughout their migration, eleven moved upstream up to 41.0 and 44.4 river kilometers (rkm), and three were tracked when moving downstream. The upstream spawning movement of the tagged fish lasted 9 to 27 days, and their ground speeds ranged from 0.07 to 1.50 km h-1. The habitat use of untagged Labeobarbus specimens in the spawning sites was also assessed using fyke nets, cast net fishing, and data from fishermen’s catches. Labeobarbus truttiformis mainly exploited the Kizen tributary stream with gravel substrates and less turbid water for spawning. Several small-sized individuals of L. megastoma spawned in the Wonzuma and Dukalit tributaries. By contrast, larger-sized specimens of L. platydorsus and L. megastoma spawned in the main river channel at the riffles and the gravel/pebble size substrate. Destructive fishing using gillnet dragging, filtering, and damming/fencing has recently intensified at the spawning areas (~ 41.0 rkm to 45.0 rkm), which likely affects spawning populations. Therefore, we recommend that fishing in the main river channel and tributaries must be banned during the months of August, September, and October to safeguard and conserve the threatened Labeobarbus species.

This study aims to comprehensively explore the intricate dynamics among positive and negative emotions, self-efficacy, and task performance within the unique context of the Covid-19 pandemic in Bahrain, specifically placing emphasis on potential gender-related distinctions within the proposed relationships. The ongoing pandemic accentuates the need to investigate the interplay between emotional states, self-efficacy beliefs, and task performance in academic and teaching domains, especially considering potential gender variations within the framework of a society promoting gender equality. Employing a quantitative survey instrument and rigorous statistical techniques, the study validates its proposed model through indicators such as the coefficient of determination (R²) and predictive relevance (Q²). The diverse sample comprises academic and teaching staff of both genders from Bahrain. Advanced statistical methodologies, including Measurement Invariance (MICOM) and Multigroup Analysis (MGA) facilitated by SmartPLS PLS-SEM, provide deeper insights into gender disparities. Significantly contributing to existing knowledge, this paper elucidates the complex relationships among emotions, self-efficacy, and task performance amid a crisis, with a distinctive focus on meticulously investigating gender differences. The study underscores the consistent positive impact of positive emotions on task performance across genders in Bahrain. Recommendations advocate for prioritizing support for academic and teaching staff during crises, emphasizing the positive impact on academic outcomes. Future research should explore demographic intricacies and potential mediating or moderating factors, deepening the comprehension of these complex dynamics. Highlighting the cascading impact of prioritizing the well-being and morale of academic and teaching staff, the study envisions a positive transformation resonating across various facets of society, extending beyond the confines of academia. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2024-SIED1-09 Full Text: PDF
WATER IN THE UNDERWORLD: HOW DOES THE PERPETUA’S THIRD VISION END?
Authors: Kasyan Maria S. ,   Russian State University for the Humanities
Published: July 2024

The early Christian work the “Passion of Perpetua and Felicity” (Passio Perpetuae et Felicitatis, early 3rd century) has a complex composition. One part contains unique writings, Perpetua’s “Notes,” written by her in confinement before her execution. In particular, a record of dreams or Visions. The article discusses Perpetua’s second and third Visions (7, 1 – 8, 4), where she sees her brother Dinocrates, who died as a boy after a serious illness. These two dreams show at first a sad picture of his afterlife, but after her sister’s fervent prayers, the boy’s appearance is transformed and Perpetua is assured of his salvation. The article examines this plot from the point of view of the influence of Christian prayer on posthumous fate and emphasizes the special role of water in alleviating this fate. The author also addresses the question of the sustainability of pagan ideas about the afterlife in the new context is also. Finally, a slightly different interpretation of the final words of the Perpetua’s third vision is proposed than it is traditionally understood by commentators, translators, and publishers of the “Passion”.
THE LANDOWNING ARISTOCRACY OF THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE AND THE ECONOMIC USE OF PRIVATE SUBSOIL RIGHTS DURING THE PERIOD OF “INDUSTRIALISM” OF 1890-1914
Authors: Yudin Evgenii E. ,   Moscow State University of Education
Published: July 2024

Based on the study of archival materials (primarily from the funds of the Yusupov princes), the article considers the issue of the realization by the largest landowners of the Russian Empire in 1890–1914 of their right to the subsoil in order to increase the profitability of their estates. As it turns out, that economic strategy was characteristic not only of a small group of Ural owners, but also for many other titled aristocrats whose possessions were located in the central provinces and especially in the regions of Southern Russia (Donbass and the Caucasus), where huge reserves of mineral raw materials were discovered. The analysis of the relevant sources shows what significant opportunities for increasing revenue were provided by coal and oil deposits, and primarily, by the initiative and economic pragmatism of private landowners in organizing extractive production. As a rule, most aristocrats managed to increase their cash receipts immediately due to minimal organizational efforts. But in the future, with the expansion and complication of extractive production, landowners faced a lack of available funds. The way out of that was seen in selling their lands or in the corporatization of the enterprise, which guaranteed the aristocrats a certain dividend from profits, but transferred most of the capital and income of the estate into the hands of industrial or banking companies. In any case, the entry of the Russian economy in 1890-1914 in the “industrial” period turned out to be extremely profitable for the largest landowners, not only for purposes of developing their agricultural estates, but also in terms of the diversification of their economy, including through the active exploitation of mineral resources.

The article considers in detail issues related to organizing management of the stability in information security systems. A comparative analysis of literature sources was carried out to describe current methods, tools and algorithms for managing the stability of operation and security of information systems based on various management models. It also considers the main approaches to formalizing the control of the structural dynamics of information security systems based on the mathematical theory of reachability sets, as well as issues of ensuring comprehensive information security. The authors propose approaches to the construction of models for strategic and tactical management of the loss of stability of an information security system (ISS) under conditions of its natural wear and tear, as well as in the presence of external disturbing influences of a random impulse. There are given dynamic models that implement the principles of highly effective control of the stability in an information security system when it is upset, as well as in the presence of external disturbing influences of a random impulse nature. The basic principles of strategic management of the stability in the information security system are formed based on the criteria-based approach. Formation of tactical control of its stability was carried out based on regulation by deviation. The concept of pulse control using a regulator is proposed to maintain the dynamic stability of security information systems.
THE NUCLEAR FACTOR IN RUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN RELATIONS IN THE 1990S
Authors: Prudnikov Anton D. ,   Russian State University for the Humanities
Published: July 2024

The article considers the impact of the issue of Ukraine’s denuclearization on the development of Russian-Ukrainian relations in the 1990s. It describes in detail the difficult negotiations on the withdrawal of Soviet tactical and strategic nuclear weapons from Ukrainian territory, which first took place in a bilateral format between Russia and Ukraine, and then joined by the United States. The author notes that Russia sought to maintain a monopoly in possession of that type of weaponry in the post-Soviet space. Washington was also not interested in increasing the number of nuclear states, especially in the Commonwealth of Independent States. The position of the Ukrainian side was characterized by inconsistency and contradiction. The author explains why Ukraine’s renunciation of nuclear status was necessary and in the interests of all parties, including, first and foremost, Ukraine itself. In particular, the signing of the Budapest Memorandum not only helped ease tensions in Russian-Ukrainian relations in the mid-1990s, stabilized the international situation in the post-Soviet space, but also allowed Ukraine to receive international recognition and financial assistance. The article clearly refutes the thesis, quite popular in modern Ukraine, that it was possible for the country to retain a part of the Soviet nuclear arsenal after the collapse of the USSR. It was ruled out, among other things, because Ukraine did not have the technical capability to maintain such arsenal under the new conditions.
CURRENT ISSUES OF EDUCATIONAL COOPERATION IN THE POST-SOVIET SPACE (BASED ON THE MATERIALS OF THE FORUM OF RECTORS OF HUMANITARIAN UNIVERSITIES AND DEANS OF HUMANITARIAN FACULTIES IN CIS MEMBER STATES - 2020)
Authors: Kondrashova Inna S. ,   Russian State University for the Humanities
Published: July 2024

On December 4, 2020, on the initiative of the Russian State University for the Humanities, the Russian Society of Historians and Archivists, and with the support of the Russian Peace Foundation, the Forum of Rectors of Humanities Universities and Deans of Humanities Faculties of the CIS Member States was held, which commemorated the 30th anniversary of the Commonwealth’s establishment. In 2022, the Forum resulted in the publication of the collection “Integration Processes in the CIS. Results and Prospects of 30 Years of Development”. Based on the materials of that publication, the author of the article tries to identify the main directions and issues of educational integration in the post-Soviet region. According to the author, there are 6 such directions and problematic fields: creation of scientific and educational associations, stimulation of cooperation between organizations of higher professional education, introduction of digital technologies in the sphere of education, development of the so-called “full cycle” of education and upbringing of university students and young scientists, maintenance of the key role and status of the Russian language in the system of regional humanitarian cooperation, modernization of the legal base of humanitarian cooperation. The author states that currently, among the post-Soviet organizations, the Commonwealth of Independent States is the center of the most productive cooperation in the humanitarian sphere in general and in the field of science and education, in particular. However, a more effective interaction in those areas would be facilitated by pairing the format of the Commonwealth with Eurasian organizations, primarily the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and the Eurasian Economic Union.
DYKMА-SERDAR IS A TRAGIC HERO OF A TRAGIC TIME
Authors: Atdaev Serdar J. ,   Institute of History and Archeology, Academy of Sciences of Turkmenistan
Published: July 2024

The article attempts to describe Dykma-serdar, one of the brightest characters of Turkmen history. Noting that in historiography there are almost no special studies on the man’s personality and activities, the author makes a detailed reconstruction of his life path, placing it in a broad socio-historical context. The study is conducted at the intersection of biography and prosopography: the portrait of Dykma-serdar against the background of the history of the Russian Empire’s penetration into Central Asia and incorporation of the Turkmen lands into the imperial body becomes a means of revealing certain strategies inherent in the ethnic elite of the region. Tracing the life of Dykma-serdar, the author shows how and under the influence of what factors his attitude to Russia and its presence in the region changed. Courageous, energetic, intelligent, with an undoubted talent as a military commander, having great authority both among his tribesmen and in Russian military circles, Dykma-serdar understood the inevitability of inclusion of the Turkmen lands into the empire that was superior to them economically, politically, militarily and technically. So he tried to minimize the costs of that inclusion, repeatedly joining negotiations with representatives of the Russian command and involving his relatives in the negotiation process. However, short-sighted and insulting behavior of the Russian military forced Dykma-serdar to abandon peaceful interaction. And only a personal meeting with M.D. Skobelev brought him back to the camp of negotiators. Dykma-serdar’s tragic hesitation between cooperation and confrontation were typical for representatives of his ethno-social group and well illustrate the behavior of Turkmen ethnic elites during the Great Game in Central Asia.
Development of a super accelerated successive substitution, new method for saturation pressure calculation in synthetic mixtures and reservoir fluids
Authors: Escobar Remolina Juan Carlos M. , Coronado Parra Carlos Alberto
Published: July 2024

This paper explains a new method of Super-Accelerated Successive Substitution (SASS) for saturation pressure calculation, in multi-component mixtures of reservoir fluids and synthetic mixtures. The new iterative scheme is characterized by its speed and convergence, even in the critical region. It is easy to implement since it iterates on a single variable, the pressure. In order to demonstrate and to prove the applicability of the new method thirteen samples of fluids were chosen, covering mostly, the most common ranges composition - pressure - temperature (including the critical region) found in phase equilibrium problems in the petroleum industry. This SASS method was compared with other bubble point and dew point calculation methods; such as Conventional Successive Substitution (CSS) and Accelerated Successive Substitution (ASS), and it showed to be faster and more reliable.

This research explains the relationship between politics and Islamic movements which influence each other with their respective roles in society. Political discussions include power, ideology, legitimacy, government, state, nation and others. The political consequences have had a huge impact on the orthodoxy and heterodoxy of the Islamic movement in Indonesia. This study focuses on the Rifa'iyah case in the 20th century AD. The Rifa'iyah group is heterodox because it is considered to deviate from Islamic teachings in general. This causes heterodox groups to experience discrimination and prohibitions from the Central Java Prosecutor's Decree. The uniqueness of Rifa'iyah's living pattern is in groups and in rural areas. This minority group received political asylum and blended into society until their struggle succeeded in revoking the prohibition decree. Especially the emergence of reform which has become the political aspirations of the Islamic community. This research is a qualitative type using a social-historical approach. The data collection method is library research, while the data analysis method is descriptive analysis. The research results show that politics has a role as accommodative, hegemonic and power. Rifa'iyah's strategy is to adjust its political role to regain its legality by collaborating with political parties, studying academically by holding seminars, and taking advantage of the reform period. The existence of politics can dissolve or maintain heterodox.
