The Panegyric on Nicholas Kochanov, a Fool for Christ of Novgorod: Literary Sources
Authors:   Admiral Makarov State University of Maritime and Inland Shipping, Pak Natalia V.
Published: June 2023

The article examines the literary sources of the anonymous Panegyric on Nicholas, named Kochanov, a 14th-century Saint of Novgorod, presumably written in Novgorod in the middle of the 16th century. In numerous cases the author of the Panegyric conveys the few historical information about the life of the Saint by the borrowings from certain literary sources. Established ones are the Sermon on the memory of Basil of Caesarea by John XIII of Constantinople, the Panegyric of Nicholas of Myra attributed to Clement of Ohrid, and the anonymous Sermon on the transfer of the relics of Nicholas the Wonderworker from Myra of Lycia to Bari. The second part of the article privides a comparison of the Panegyric with two late lives of Nicholas Kochanov. The results of analysis confirm the conclusion that they go back to the Panegyric as their source. Moreover, the late Praise of Xenophon of Robeika, another Saint of Novgorod, the founder of the Monastery in honour of St. Nicholas, as well as the Life of Xenophon of Robeika are also based on the text of the Panegyric of Nicholas Kochanov. The appendix contains the text of the Panegyric of Nicholas Kochanov published in accordance with the manuscript of the 17th century OLDP F.48.
“Intertextuality” in the 12th Century: Marie de France and Chrétien de Troyes
Authors:   National Research University Higher School of Economics, Dolgorukova Natalia M.
Published: June 2023

The article makes a significant contribution to research on the problem of the connection between Marie de France and Chrétien de Troyes, the most famous and innovative French authors of the reign of Henry II. The aim of the work is to demonstrate how this influence is reflected through a systematic review of the numerous indirect echoes and reciprocal references, in other words, the intertextual and interdiscursive links between the works of Chrétien and Marie. These links allow us to consider certain lays of Marie de France devoted to the metamorphoses of people into animals (e. g., “Yonec,” “Bisclavret”) as a “Breton” version of ancient Ovid’s “Metamorphoses.” These motifs borrowed from Marie were then adapted by the young Chrétien as well as certain episodes (paternal love in the “Two Lovers” and the “Philomena,” the meeting at the window in “Rossignol” and “Lancelot,” the drops of bird’s blood in the “Aüstic” and “Perceval”) and the use of the word “surplus” attest this.
Making it my own

Published: June 2023

Abstract

In the audio paper which forms the center piece of this exposition I have examined the idiolect of country harmonica player Charlie McCoy. In order to gain a multifarious understanding of McCoy’s idiolect I have made transcriptions of his recordings and interviewed McCoy himself and two other prominent harmonica players. With the aim of obtaining a more refined engagement with the performance, I have sought to embody McCoy’s playing by learning to play my transcriptions. The paper shows the prominent features of McCoy’s idiolect and how he created his idiolect while negotiating the affordances of the diatonic harmonica. The paper also shows how I am using transcriptions of his recordings with the intent of transforming my own artistic voice.

Keywords: Harmonica, Charlie McCoy, Idiolect, Voice, Affordances, Country music

The computational analysis of debris-flow dynamics and its impact on the
structure, i.e., sabo dam, is a long-standing problem for hazard
prevention. It is a complex problem that involves fluid-solid coupling
and large deformation process of sabo dam, for which three-dimensional
numerical simulation remains a scientific challenge until now. The
smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) and discrete element method (DEM)
coupling model can enable the numerical simulation for the large
deformation failure of sabo dam under debris-flow impact. For this
purpose, built upon our previous Herschel-Bulkley-Papanastasiou (HBP)
rheology-based 3D SPH model, the impact forces posed by debris-flow
particles acting on the sabo dam are obtained. The sabo dam is modeled
by a series of particles with relatively fixed positions in order to
generate blocks for simulating their large deformation by DEM, wherein a
nonlinear elastic-plastic bond model with a pre-defined bond strength
degradation coefficient between DEM blocks is incorporated. To verify
the effectiveness of the proposed 3D SPH-DEM numerical coupling model, a
simple pier failure case under debris-flow impact is simulated in prior,
and the 2010 Yohutagawa debris-flow event, at Amami Oshima Island in
Japan is selected as a case study, in which sabo dam with different bond
strength degradation coefficients are tested. Results show that the
proposed 3D SPH-DEM numerical model well simulates the fluid-solid
coupling phenomenon and is able to explore the large deformation of the
sabo dam with different strengths under debris-flow impact.
A2FWPO: Anti-aliasing filter based on whale parameter optimization method for feature extraction and recognition of dance motor imagery EEG
Authors: Huang Tianliang , Luo Ziyue , Lyu Yin
Published: June 2023

The classification accuracy of EEG signals based on traditional machine learning methods is low. Therefore, this paper proposes a new model for the feature extraction and recognition of dance motor imagery EEG, which makes full use of the advantage of anti-aliasing filter based on whale parameter optimization method. The anti-aliasing filter is used for preprocessing, and the filtered signal is extracted by two-dimensional empirical wavelet transform. The extracted feature is input to the robust support matrix machine to complete pattern recognition. In pattern recognition process, an improved whale algorithm is used to dynamically adjust the optimal parameters of individual subjects. Experiments are carried out on two public data sets to verify that anti-aliasing filter-based preprocessing can improve signal feature discrimination. The improved whale algorithm can find the optimal parameters of robust support matrix machine classification for individuals. This presented method can improve the recognition rate of dance motion image. Compared with other advanced methods, the proposed method requires less samples and computing resources, and it is suitable for the practical application of brain-computer interface.

We show that the range of contraction constant in a result of Karap?nar et
al. can not be extended to [0, 1). However, by using some additional
conditions, we prove that the range can be extended to [0,1). The first
result gives a negative answer to the open question on a Ciric type
theorem in b-metric spaces, and the next results are improvements of Ciric

Authors: Bhattacharyya Arindam , Patra Dhriti , Tarafdar Manjusha
Published: June 2023

We characterize the solutions of the vacuum static equation on a class of
almost Kenmotsu manifolds. First, we prove that if the vacuum static
equation has a non-trivial solution on (k, ?)?-almost Kenmotsu manifold,
then it is locally isometric to some warped product spaces. Next, we prove
that the vacuum static equation have only trivial solution on generalized(k,
?)-almost Kenmotsu manifold. At last, we consider the vacuum static equation
on an almost Kenmotsu manifold with conformal Reeb foliation. We also
provide some important examples of almost Kenmotsu manifolds that satisfies
the vacuum static equation.
Study on the pressure wave velocity model of multiphase fluid in the annulus of dual-gradient drilling
Authors: Guo Xiucheng , Zhang Zhe
Published: June 2023

Dual-gradient drilling technology is difficult to detect and deal with well
kick, which may cause safety problems such as well control. Once a well kick
occurs, the pressure in the narrow annulus increases instantaneously, so it
is particularly important to clarify the transmission law of pressure wave.
Taking the pressure fluctuation in the annulus of double gradient drilling
as an example, considering the boundary between the inner wall of the casing
annulus and the outer wall of the drill string, the fluid resistance, the
flow field distribution and the multiphase flow, this paper deduces and
establishes the multiphase flow pressure wave velocity model in the annulus,
and compares the calculation results with the pressure wave velocity model
in the circular pipe. The research shows that when the casing and drill
string are in the static condition with small roughness and little
difference between them, the shear stress on the inner wall of the annulus
and the outer wall of the drill string can be treated as equal, and the
derivation of the annulus pressure wave velocity model can be simplified.
The pressure wave velocity of multiphase flow in annulus is related to
casing size, drill string size and multiphase fluid properties. Among them,
the gas content is the main influencing factor. With the increase of the gas
content, the pressure wave velocity decreases, but the decreasing range will
gradually decrease. When the solid content is small, it has little effect on
the pressure wave velocity.

Published: June 2023

To solve the problem of high temperature thermal damages to the mine underground driving working face of a dry-hot-rock-enriched area, an active cooling method for fracturing water injection of the surrounding rock of the deep mine is proposed based on analysis of the heat dissipation mechanism of the surrounding rock. An artificial thermal reservoir is formed in the high temperature rock mass around the tunneling roadway by stimulation, such as a high pressure crack, and the heat energy of the surrounding rock is extracted by heat exchange of the heat-carrying fluid and the high temperature rocks mass to reduce the ambient temperature of the roadway. The design of a downhole water injection cooling system based on enhanced geothermal system technology is presented and a simplified enhanced geothermal system heats collection model is used for fluid-enclosure. Numerical simulation of the temperature field of the rock coupling shows that the temperature of the surrounding rock can be effectively reduced by increasing the water injection speed and fracture porosity, and improvement of the underground thermal environment can improve the working efficiency. For a water injection rate of 14 m/s and porosity of 0.18, the average cross-section temperature was 41.95?, which is nearly 5? lower than the original rock temperature of 46.85?.

Published: June 2023

The heat transfer tube is one of the key components affecting the heat transfer performance of automobile radiators. Proposes a new kind of heat transfer tube with ellipsoidal dimples based on the elliptical heat transfer tube. The effects of the arrangement and pitch ellipsoidal dimples on the turbulent heat transfer and flow resistance of the heat transfer tube are further studied by numerical simulation in the range of Reynolds number in 4080-24480. The results show that the ellipsoid dimple arrangement makes the near-wall fluid produce different flow forms, which enhances the turbulence degree of the tube fluid and thus improves the convective heat transfer capacity of the tube. Among them: vertical parallel arrangement (Case 1) causes convergent flow, oblique parallel arrangement (Case 2) causes helical flow, and diagonal symmetrical arrangement (Case 3) causes cross-helical flow. The cross-helical flow causes the most significant degree of turbulence, followed by the helical flow. Furthermore, the arrangement and pitch of the ellipsoidal dimples also have an essential influence on the heat transfer performance and flow resistance of the heat transfer tube. The Nusselt number and friction factor of Cases 1-3 increase successively. But the Nusselt number and friction factor gradually decrease with the rise of the pitch of ellipsoidal dimples. However, under different ellipsoidal dimples pitch, the comprehensive performance of Cases 1-3 is better than that of smooth elliptical tubes. Among them, Case 3 has the best performance when P = 15 mm, and the performance evaluation criteria value is up to 1.39.

Development of an Approach to Assess the Consequences of Fuel-Air Mixtures Explosions Taking into Account the Development Features
Authors: Тyurin A. P. , Yannikov I. M.
Published: June 2023

Introduction. In the study of the problem of the impact of negative factors from explosions at gas stations on people and the infrastructure of settlements, a probabilistic approach is often used. The limitation of this approach is that when it is implemented, the concept of clutter of the surrounding space does not reflect the relationship between the area occupied by buildings and the total area affected by the shock wave. Therefore, this article is devoted to the development and justification of an approach to assessing the consequences of explosions of fuel-air mixtures (FA), taking into account the peculiarities of the development of settlements. The work objective is to develop an approach for assessing the consequences of explosions of fuel-air mixtures, taking into account the development features. The solution to this problem will facilitate decision-making for the development of effective protective measures for surrounding objects.

Materials and Methods. The authors have conducted an analytical review of the research results in the field of study and the existing approaches to assessing the consequences of explosions at filling stations (FS) and gas stations (GS), based on the specific conditions of their location on the territory of settlements.

Results. An approach has been developed to assess the consequences of explosions of fuel-air mixtures, taking into account the development features. The main causes, types of accidents with an explosion at a gas station and the scale of their consequences have been identified. Along with the theoretical justification of the issue under consideration, the authors provide a detailed description of the applied research methodology, as well as the characteristics of the objects of research, taking into account their location. When calculating the consequences of explosions of fuel-air mixtures, it was proposed for the first time to use a development density factor equal to the ratio of the area of the existing facilities to the total area of the territory affected by the shock wave. This approach justifies the need to apply additional protective measures in the areas where gas stations are located. The methods of analysis used are described in detail with justification of the reliability of the measurement results.

Discussion and Conclusion. The application of the approach proposed in the article for calculating the consequences of an explosion of fuel-air mixtures, taking into account the development density, makes it possible to control the location and the level of risk from possible explosions at gas stations in a real situation. The proposed approach for calculating the consequences allows you to quickly assess possible risks in real time and plan specific measures to minimize them in accordance with the existing situation in the area of the gas station.
Production Facilities Safety Assessment According to the Maximum Values of Machines Reliability
Authors: Deryushev V. V. , Teplyakova S. V. , Zaitseva M. M.
Published: June 2023

Introduction. At the stage of designing technical devices and performing appropriate strength calculations of metal structures, sufficiently large reserves of strength are taken, which, theoretically, exclude any failures of parts. In fact, the machines work with frequent failures. Of interest are undiagnosed failures that lead to a critical decrease in safety, especially at hazardous production facilities. It is assumed that the previously applied approaches of selective determination of the maximum (minimum) reliability value, based on point estimates of the distribution parameters of the two-parameter Weibull law, lead to an overestimation of the calculated indicators of the probability of failure-free operation, i.e. underestimation of risk. Therefore, the work objective is to consider an approach to assessing the risk of operating production facilities in a situation of accidental occurrence of dangerous and undiagnosed failures in systems.

Materials and Methods. Methods for technical devices safety assessment based on probability theory were used in the work, and the probability of machine failure was determined based on the well-known method of reliability theory. This method consists in calculating and constructing distribution functions of random variables (load-bearing capacity and loading) that influence the occurrence of failure. The level of increase in the reliability index was determined, leading to frequent unpredictable failures of technical devices (machines) and a decrease in the safety of their operation.

Results. The signs of inconsistency of strength calculations based on overestimated safety margins, which in theory exclude failures of parts and machines in general, are identified and substantiated. A new approach to risk assessment of operating production facilities in a situation of accidental occurrence of dangerous and undiagnosed failures by safety systems has been developed and implemented. An algorithm for determining the three parameters of Weibull's law for a population based on sample data has been developed. The resource distribution densities of the boom of the single-bucket excavator EK-14 are constructed. The recommendations are given to increase the probability of failure-free operation to 0.9989.

Discussion and Conclusion. The results of the conducted research allow us to substantiate a new approach to risk assessment of operating production facilities in the event of dangerous and undiagnosed failures of basic parts by safety systems, leading to negative consequences.

The purpose of the current study is to examine the distance education experiences of students who are receiving formal undergraduate education in the field of child development at public and private universities in Türkiye during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The convergent parallel design, one of the mixed method designs, was used in the study. In March-April 2021, when the data were collected, 788 students who continued their formal child development undergraduate education through distance education due to the pandemic were included in the quantitative dimension and 11 students were included in the qualitative dimension of the study. Due to the measures taken during the pandemic, quantitative data were collected through online form and qualitative data were collected through online interviews. It was determined that the students benefited from distance education the most in terms of theoretical knowledge and the least in terms of professional practice skills, that the students’ general satisfaction level with distance education was 4.55±2.75 on a numerical rating scale during the pandemic and that the vast majority of the students demanded that all courses be face-to-face, while 5.1% demanded that all courses be through distance education after the pandemic. The reported distance education experiences are part of the temporary adaptation process in an extraordinary situation such as a pandemic. After the pandemic, efforts should be continued to make distance education more qualified by determining the needs for applied fields with such studies.
A Bibliometric Analysis of WoS Ethical Studies in Political Science published between 1970-2021
Authors: Ören Ezgi , Şahin Lokman
Published: June 2023

Although ethics -which emerged as a philosophical discipline from morality- seems to be a modern world concept but there is no doubt that its history is almost as old as the history of humanity. First of all, ethics began to appear in moral debates before emerging as an important theoretical notion. Today, as well as social life, ethical discussions have increased remarkably in professional fields, especially in academia and academic studies. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the ethical problematic, which also has an important place academically, and the studies in the field of political science, by subjecting it to bibliometric analysis. The data were analyzed using the “bibliometrix” package in the R-Studio programming language in the R program, which is an open source statistical program. Based on the analyses carried out; The first three authors with the highest h-index for ethics research in the Web of Science database are Allen N. (5), Hutchings K. (5) and Appiah K. A. (12); The first three countries producing the most articles are the USA, the United Kingdom and Australia, while the countries most open to cooperation are Norway, Switzerland, France and China. It has been determined that the top 3 journals in which the articles on this subject are published the most are “Ethics & International Affairs”, “Ethics & Global Politics” and “Political Theory”. The most-frequently-used keywords are ethics (238), politics (102), war (47), justice (48), politics (45), law (41), democracy (33), power (33), state (29).

Authors: Asiedu Emmanuel Kwesi , Oduro Domfeh Christiana , Agyeman Amoako Edmond
Published: June 2023

The formation of political in-groups and out-groups on campuses and involvement in political discourses in and out of the school setting clearly demonstrate students’ political attitudes and behaviours which eventually reflect or sum up their political identities. However, it remains a mystery the exact ingredient cooking up this form of social identity. The study, as a result, was conducted to explore the factors underlying the political identity negotiation of students in colleges of education and to identify practices that reflect their explicit and implicit political behaviours and attitudes. The paper focused on examining factors that influenced political identity negotiation among college of education students in Ghana. In order to answer all four research questions, the concurrent triangulation mixed method approach to inquiry was adopted. Data collected were descriptively analysed, using the measure of central tendency and narration. Three factors were revealed as being influential in student teachers’ identity formation: familial characteristics such as the level of education of parents, political preference, and occupation, among others; liberal school setting such as the ethnic composition of the student population; and new political stimuli such as contact with campaigns and volunteer services. Implicit and explicit political attitudes and behaviours of student-teachers were found to be evident through practices such as voting in student elections and participation in political discourses. The paper concludes that political identity negotiation of young adults is inevitable as a result of the different political cues they encounter within the social structures.
O campo da educação superior no Brasil: tensões e desafios
Authors: Machado de Assis Renata , Ferreira de Oliveira João
Published: June 2023

Algumas tensões do campo da educação superior são examinadas por meio de revisão teórica narrativa, com fundamento na base legal que evidencia o processo de diversificação, diferenciação e crescimento acelerado desse nível de educação nas últimas décadas. A noção de campo, de Pierre Bourdieu, é empregada na análise da constituição e do desenvolvimento desse campo, bem como no exame das políticas, especialmente a partir dos anos 1990, quando se evidenciam iniciativas políticas diversas, complexas, ambíguas e contraditórias, de matizes ideológicas distintas, que vêm acentuando as tensões e os desafios quanto às finalidades, aos elementos estruturadores e aos rumos da educação superior. O contexto dos governos Temer (2016-2018) e Bolsonaro (2019-2022), marcado pela privatização e cortes orçamentários para as universidades e os institutos federais remete à necessidade emergencial de fortalecer e democratizar o acesso às instituições de ensino superior públicas, no Brasil, bem como o sistema de ciência, tecnologia e inovação.
Expansão do ensino superior no Brasil de 1995 a 2020: políticas e ações
Authors: Santos Anjo Reis Márcia , Lima de Assis Pires Luciene
Published: June 2023

Investigação qualitativa, baseada em pesquisa bibliográfica e documental e na análise estatística dos dados. O recorte temporal de 1995 a 2020 justifica-se por ser o período em que se constata a criação de um conjunto de ações e políticas específicas em âmbito público e privado. A Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional, de 1996, reestruturou a educação nos diferentes níveis e modalidades e ocasionou impacto na educação superior. Por isso, a análise dos dados inicia-se em 1995, quando o governo brasileiro adotou medidas normativas que fortaleceram a política de expansão da educação superior sob a lógica da diversificação, da diferenciação e da privatização. Essa expansão não é recente, mas a forma como é percebida, encarada e proposta pelos diversos nichos da sociedade modifica-se de acordo com interesses e conjunturas políticas, sociais, culturais e econômicas. Destaca-se que, a partir da segunda metade da década de 1990, a ampliação do número de matrículas e das oportunidades de acesso ao ensino superior deve-se a programas de financiamento federal.

Published: June 2023

Este estudo analisa o crescimento da educação superior da rede federal brasileira no período de 2003 a 2020, de modo a compreender o processo de expansão verificado na graduação e na pós-graduação stricto sensu, no intervalo de 2013 a 2016, e o arrefecimento desse processo entre 2016 e 2020. Numa abordagem qualitativa, são examinados os indicadores sobre quantidade e perfil das instituições federais de ensino superior e número de matrículas e de função docente na graduação presencial, disponíveis no Censo da Educação Superior do Instituto Nacional de Estudos e Pesquisas Educacionais Anísio Teixeira (Inep), e os indicadores sobre o número de programas, matrículas, titulados e bolsas, disponíveis no site do Sistema de Informações Georreferenciadas da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (Geocapes), relativos à pós-graduação stricto sensu. A análise conclui que a ampliação da rede federal de educação superior é resultado de um conjunto de políticas específicas para essa expansão e que a política de ajuste fiscal e os cortes orçamentários, implementados após a aprovação da Emenda Constitucional nº 95/2016, arrefeceram o movimento de expansão da rede. Sinaliza, ainda, a necessidade de resistência propositiva à política de desmonte da educação pública para que se revertam os graves retrocessos nas políticas para a educação superior.

La ejemplaridad de Sócrates según Platón y Jenofonte
Authors: Dorion Louis André
Published: June 2023

En la obra de Jenofonte, Sócrates es un modelo de virtud a imitar por aquellos que aspiran a adquirir las virtudes que él encarna. La ejemplaridad de Sócrates es entonces esencialmente la de un modelo que se puede imitar. El Sócrates de Platón no ocupa nunca el rol de modelo a imitar por aquellos que aspiran a la virtud, sin duda porque la virtud, para el Sócrates de Platón, no es el fruto del ejercicio (askêsis). Si la virtud consiste esencialmente en un conocimiento, no tiene ninguna utilidad imitar a Sócrates, pues una imitación tal no procura ningún conocimiento.

En este trabajo abordamos la posibilidad de desarrollar una educación capaz de facilitar a los ciudadanos la construcción de una sociedad democrática, teniendo en cuenta la premisa que establece E. Laclau en relación con el equilibrio entre igualdad y libertad. Para ello, partimos de las dos nociones establecidas por la pedagogía clásica: educāre y educere, a fin de sugerir el mejor camino para llevar a cabo una educación en valores de carácter democrático.
Hacia una fenomenología especulativa del mundo
Authors: González Padilla Rolando
Published: June 2023

En el siguiente trabajo se aborda la confrontación de Eugen Fink con Martin Heidegger de cara al concepto de mundo. En este sentido se analiza el contraste entre un concepto existencial de mundo, del modo como el Heidegger de la ontología existencial lo desarrolla, y un concepto cosmológico de mundo, que Fink propone a partir de su interpretación del giro (Kehre) heideggeriano y que lo conduce hacia el despliegue de una ontología cosmológica del juego, cuyo camino filosófico-metódico queda abierto por una fenomenología especulativa en contraposición o como superación de la fenomenología hermenéutica heideggeriana.

Background

In terms of safety and efficacy, cryoballoon ablation (CB-A) has become a valid option for achieving pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in patients affected by symptomatic atrial fibrillation. However, CB-A data in octogenarians are still scarce and limited to single-centre experiences. The present multicentre study aimed to compare the outcomes and complications of index CB-A in patients older than 80 years with a cohort of younger patients.

Methods and results

We retrospectively enrolled 97 consecutive patients aged ≥80 years who underwent PVI using the second-generation CB-A. This group was compared with a younger cohort of patients using a 1:1 propensity score matching. After the matching, 70 patients from the elderly group were analysed and compared with 70 younger patients (control group). The mean age was 81.4 ± 1.9 years among octogenarians and 65.2 ± 10.2 years in the younger cohort. The global success rate after a median follow-up of 23 [18–32.5] months was 60.0% in the elderly group and 71.4% in the control group (P = 0.17). Phrenic nerve palsy was the most common complication occurring in a total of 11 patients (7.9%): in 6 (8.6%) patients in the elderly group and in 5 patients (7.1%) in the younger group (P = 0.51). Only two (1.4%) major complications occurred: one (1.4%) femoral artery pseudoaneurysm in the control group, which resolved with a tight groin bandage, and one (1.4%) case of urosepsis in the elderly group. Arrhythmia recurrence during the blanking period and the need for electrical cardioversion to restore sinus rhythm after PVI were found to be the only independent predictors of late arrhythmia relapses.

Conclusions

The present study showed that CB-A PVI is as feasible, safe and effective among appropriately selected octogenarians as it is in younger patients.

Objective. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of liver diseases characterized by the presence of ectopic fat in the liver and steatosis, which cannot be explained by alcohol consumption. The association between NAFLD and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is well established. As liver fibrosis progresses in a patient with NAFLD, insulin resistance (IR) increases and may worsen diabetes control. The aspartate aminotransferase platelet ratio index (APRI) score is a simple and inexpensive bedside marker that can detect liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. Several studies have shown an association between APRI and NAFLD. However, there is a gap in correlation with IR in patients with diabetes. In this study, we sought to correlate IR and NAFLD in diabetes using the APRI score.

Methods. This observational hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of General Medicine, one of the tertiary care hospitals in North India, from February 2019 to July 2020. A total of 70 patients were taken for the study. Patients with T2DM, aged >30 years, who had no history of alcohol use and who had or were newly diagnosed with NAFLD were enrolled in the study.

Results. Significant differences in mean HbAc1, AST, serum insulin, APRI score and homeo-static model assessment-2 (HOMA2) IR between NAFLD grade 1, grade 2, and grade 3 groups were found. Pearson correlation between APRI score and HOMA2 IR total values revealed a significant positive correlation between them.

Conclusions. The data of the present study indicate that the APRI score can be used to assess the IR degree and provide important information for improving glycemic control in T2DM patients with NAFLD.

Assessing the Role of Soft Power in India-Russia Relations
Authors: Doraiswamy Rashmi
Published: June 2023

The article examines the cultural relationships between Russia and India, which have existed for several centuries, and their impact on the development of political relations between the two countries, particularly in the twentieth century. Culture has played an important role in the multi-layered bilateral relations between India and the Soviet Union. However, with the fall of the Soviet Union and geopolitical reorientations, Russia had to focus on rebuilding its economy before engaging with soft power. Similarly, India liberalized its economy in the 1990s and adapted to changing political equations in the international order.

Soft power, as defined by Joseph Nye, includes cultural resources, political values, and foreign policies that can be used to influence others. This article examines all three aspects of soft power and notes that Russia and India have channelized their cultural resources into public diplomacy since the 2000s, setting up institutions and bodies to deal with it. Despite their rich cultural resources and institutionalization of the dissemination of soft power, both countries do not fare well in soft power rankings.The article argues that changes in the international order since the 1990s, shifts in political ideologies, and the reorientation of the foreign policies of both countries have led them to seek new allies. While cultural relations between the two nations continue, soft power and public diplomacy have yet to realize their full potential in this fluid scenario.
