Galway International Arts Festival, What’s behind the internationalisation of a name
Authors: Guglielmini Silvia
Published: April 2020

Galway International Arts Festival (GIAF) takes place in July in the West of Ireland and combines different art-forms including theatre, music and the visual arts. It comprises comedy and street spectacle, as well as a discursive strand centred on creativity called First Thought Talks. The festival was established in 1978 as an outlet for professional artists living in the area and a stage to showcase national and international artwork. It was originally called Galway Arts Festival and added the term ‘international’ to its title in 2014. This name change could be interpreted as a strategic marketing move to position GIAF in a broader circuit of international events, but is also an interesting starting point to discuss GIAF’s transformation as informed by globalisation. Globalisation is a complex interplay of economic and cultural dynamics shaping the sense of the world as a smaller place, where ‘new global elements coexist alongside existing and established local or national cultural forms’ (Robins, 1997: 19). Globalisation goes hand-in-hand with technological progress and the information economy, which is based “on the capacity to create new knowledge and to apply it rapidly, via information processing and telecommunications, to a wide range of human activities in ever-broadening space and time” (Carnoy et al., 1993: 6). As the world becomes interconnected, there is increasing competition to gain financial resources and hold a share of people’s attention.
Are You Having a Laugh, Comedy and Festivals in the 21st Century
Authors: Maughan Christopher , Radošević Ljiljana
Published: April 2020

Humour and comedy are emergent topics for academic researchers whose work is illuminating our understanding of the power and purpose of humour and comedy for people and society (Lockyer and Pickering, 2005; Jeffries, 2014). However, much of this output discusses the impact of humour and comedy itself and little has been written about it in the context of a festival. This chapter takes as its focus two established and successful festivals: the International Festival of Comics (FIBD) in Angoulême, France; and Dave’s Leicester Comedy Festival (DLCF) in England. 2 This choice reflects several factors. The first is that the authors have had personal experience of both, Radosevic with FIBD, and Maughan with DLCF. These personal insights have been aligned with selected theoretical perspectives to provide an analysis which seeks to draw out factors of relevance to those studying and/ or working in a festival, in particular how a festival and its management culture need to change through time and with time (life cycle theory); the relationship of a festival to its artistic and cultural roots (liminal/liminoid effects); and the impact of commercial culture on both. Comedy and the desire to laugh are universal. The cartoonist Robert Makoff discussed the distinction between humour and comedy in the following way: “all comedy has humour, but not all humour is comedy. Humour is the much broader category of anything that may make us laugh, such as a loud fart at a funeral, which is funny but not comedy. Comedy is a form of professional entertainment, consisting of jokes and sketches intended to make people laugh” (Mankoff, 2014). The works of Aristophanes, born in 446 B.C., are noted for their political satire and abundance of sexual innuendo, features that we easily recognise today in humour based comics and stand-up comedy. The history of contemporary comics is traced back to artists such as Hogarth and subsequently to satirical magazines of the nineteenth century. Comedy as a feature of performance has a special place in theatre, dance and music, and of course in the UK within the music hall tradition. However, whole festivals devoted to comics or performed comedy feature less prominently in the festival culture tradition.
Visualising National Life, The Hornbill Festival as Culture and Politics
Authors: Longkumer Arkotong
Published: April 2020

The global circulation of images has become a powerful tool in representing the visual richness of cultures around the world. It has made the annual Hornbill Festival in North-east India a product that acts as a brand. The plethora of visual images – tribal people in their traditional clothes, scenic representation of landscapes, and tourist information on how to reach Nagaland to attend the festival – have fixed the identities of the Nagas of India in such a compelling and exotic manner that it resembles a kind of modern primitivism, a getaway from the decadent and uncultured world, to a place that still preserves these pristine habitats for cultural and tourist voyeurs. This chapter will suggest that in order to appreciate the festival one has to take into account the different levels of what I shall call the ‘performance of identity’. First, the festival celebrates the creation of Nagaland in 1963 as a state in India after years of civil and military unrest in the region. Second, while the political situation remains unresolved, the festival is an attempt to project a distinct Naga identity that correlates with notions of indigenous peoples’ rhetoric of ‘preservation of culture’ and ‘self-determination’ as the cornerstone of national identity. While these different forces are at play in the global arena of indigeneity, the Hornbill Festival also functions as a contested site of culture. On the one hand, it plays on representations of exoticism from colonial ethnography found in glossy coffee-table books and adventure tourism materials. On the other hand, the festival itself is struggling to articulate a Naga culture that represents the lived reality of present day Nagas. Tension arises from displaying a manufactured, but nonetheless real, culture that is dependent on the political economy of global markets. It is in these tensions that we can come to understand the evolving nature of culture and all its manifest contradictions.
The Parkes Elvis Festival, Attendee and Host Community Perspectives
Authors: Schlenker Katie , Foley Carmel , Carroll-Dwyer Eve
Published: April 2020

Each year, up to 20,000 people descend upon the rural town of Parkes, 365km west of Sydney, to attend the Parkes Elvis Festival. Initiated in 1993 by a group of locals who were Elvis Presley fans, the annual festival has grown from the humble beginnings of a one-day event with a few hundred attendees to a five day festival. In a bid to assist the festival organisers to understand the impacts of the Parkes Elvis Festival on both attendees and the host community, researchers designed a set of survey instruments to deliver a comprehensive evaluation of the social and economic impacts of the festival. Research was carried out in 2010 and separate surveys were conducted for festival organisers, attendees and local residents. After a brief explanation of the festival, and the man it is inspired by, this chapter explores the methods used to collect data before outlining the results. The results are divided into two key sections, attendees’ perceptions, and host community perceptions. First we profile the demographics, motivations and experience of festival attendees. Second, we profile the perceptions of the host community with respect to both the economic and social impacts of the festival. The surveys demonstrate the overwhelming goodwill and enthusiasm for the festival, by both the host community and attendees. Results show that the festival attracts a mix of first time and repeat visitors, and that many of the returning attendees do so to catch up with friends made at previous festivals. For residents, regardless of whether they attend or not, the large majority understand the economic, tourism and community benefits generated by the festival.
Large Festivals – Great Struggles
Authors: Szabó János Zoltán
Published: April 2020

Contemporary music festivals in late modern European culture have different histories, focuses, missions and geographical conditions. This chapter calls for deeper analysis of the development of festivals that is rooted in cultural anthropology, sociology and the sciences – a multidisciplinary approach. Without this, festivals will simply be known as recurring celebrations, thematic ritual events reflecting the basic values and the worldview shared by the participants that are the basis of their social identity. However, nowadays, the economic importance of festivals has become even more rigorously evaluated, whilst complicated ways to measure cultural impact are often left out, even from detailed reports. Most studies emphasise the difference between Eastern and Western European festivals (Newbold et al. 2015), however, the life cycle of a festival is influenced by factors that are similar wherever they take place: marketing, promotions, sales, audience development and quality, improvement challenges etc. As the size of the festival market has grown, new questions are being asked about economic efficiency. In this study I will search for similarities in the development of five major Eastern and Western European festivals, namely Glastonbury Festival (United Kingdom), Roskilde Festival (Denmark), Sziget Festival (Hungary), Exit Festival (Serbia), and Woodstock Festival Poland (Poland). I will also analyse the Sziget Festival’s life cycle in detail in order to go deeper into the issues and discuss ways to further research music festivals.

Ginger is a medicinal plant commodity that has good prospects for development. The value of the ginger plant lies in the rhizomes which are generally consumed as warm drinks, herbs and cooking ingredients and raw materials for traditional medicine. Ginger can be processed into drinks and mixed with other ingredients such as milk. Milk becomes a nutritious drink seen from its nutritional composition, which is very much needed for the development of children's bones and to maintain bone density in adults. The development of increasingly advanced technology, so that there are currently efforts to process fresh milk into various forms of processed. The development of this technology is intended so that milk consumption can spread to all walks of life, the amount consumed by the community is also increasing, diversifying processed products according to consumer tastes, and preventing more milk damage. Milk can be processed into various kinds of products, including ginger milk. This form of processed needs to be realized that to process fresh milk into good processed products requires good quality milk such as fresh milk served in fresh form and ginger milk served in warm or cold form.

In recent years, the incidence of tuberculous peritonitis increased. Peritoneal tuberculosis is difficult to diagnose, and often the diagnosis is verified with significant delay. In clinical practice, a quick and affordable diagnostic radiology method, ultrasonography (USG), is proposed for patients with suspected tuberculous peritonitis. The study was aimed to describe the sonographic semiology of tuberculous peritonitis, to create the integrated scale for the individual peritoneal tuberculosis sonographic symptoms significance assessment, and to determine the role of ultrasound imaging in the diagnosis verification. Retrospective study of the invasive and ultrasound investigation results of 37 patients with confirmed tuberculous peritonitis was carried out in 2009–2019. Similar data obtained by investigation of 28 patients with the disorders which often mimic the tuberculous peritonitis (peritoneal carcinomatosis and sarcoidosis, non-specific ascites) were used as a comparison group. Direct and indirect signs of peritoneal lesion in patients with tuberculosis were identified. On the basis of that, an integral scale for the individual sonographic symptoms significance assessment was created. Each sonographic symptom received a 0–3 score. Assessment of those sonographic signs visualization allowed us to evaluate the probability of the disorder’s tuberculous etiology. The following data were obtained: score under 4 corresponded to low probability, score 5–8 corresponded to medium probability, and score over 9 corresponded to high probability of tuberculous peritonitis based on the visualization of all described songraphic symptoms. The proposed integrated scale for the sonographic signs assessment allows the clinician to verify the tuberculous peritonitis diagnosis based on the ultrasound imaging data or to select the further tactics of diagnosis.

За последние годы отмечен рост числа случаев туберкулезного перитонита. Туберкулез брюшины — сложный объект для диагностики и нередко верификация диагноза происходит со значительными задержками. В клинической практике предложен непродолжительный и доступный метод лучевой диагностики при подозрении на туберкулезный перитонит — ультразвуковое исследование (УЗИ). Целью работы было описать эхо-семиотику туберкулезного перитонита с созданием интегральной шкалы оценки значимости отдельных эхо-симптомов туберкулеза брюшины и определить роль УЗ-сканирования в верификации диагноза. Произведен ретроспективный анализ инвазивной и УЗ-диагностики 37 пациентов с подтвержденным туберкулезным перитонитом в период с 2009 по 2019 г. В качестве группы сравнения использовали такие же данные исследований у 28 больных с заболеваниями, часто имитирующими туберкулезный перитонит (канцероматозом и саркоидозом брюшины, неспецифическим асцитом). Выделены прямые и косвенные признаки поражения брюшины при туберкулезе, на основании этого создана интегральная шкала оценки значимости отдельных эхо-симптомов. С этой целью каждому эхо-симптому присваивали от 0 до 3 баллов. При оценке визуализации описанных эхо-признаков возможно прогнозировать вероятность туберкулезной этиологии заболевания. Получены следующие статистические данные: низкая вероятность наличия туберкулезного перитонита при оценке визуализации всех описанных эхо-симптомов — до 4 баллов, средняя — от 5 до 8 баллов, высокая 9 и более баллов. Разработанная интегральная схема оценки УЗ-признаков позволяет клиницисту на основании эхографического исследования верифицировать туберкулезный перитонит или выбрать дальнейшую тактику в диагностическом поиске.

Nurses’ Reflections on Challenges and Barriers of Communication in the Intensive Care Unit: A Phenomenology Study
Authors: Emaliyawati Etika , Widiasih Restuning , Sutini Titin , Ermiati Ermiati , Rahayu Urip
Published: April 2020

Communication among nurses, patients, and families takes an important role in the intensive care unit in which the patients are in critical condition and unable to involve in two-way communication. Research related to effective nurse-patient communication has been done extensively, but the information regarding communication in intensive care unit is still limited. This research aimed to explore nurses’ experiences in the intensive care units in effective communication to patients/patient’s families. This was a qualitative study project with phenomenology approach. The data were collected using the in-depth interview technique approximately 60 minutes involving ten nurses who were selected using the purposive sampling at Al Islam Hospital Bandung. Data were analysed using the Colaizzi method and the results were presented in themes. Based on the nurses’ experiences, four themes were emerged in this study including (1) Nurses’ dilemma of their professionalism and personal issues/matters, (2) Contextual factor affects selection of nurses' communication technique, (3) Barriers in effective communication; difficulties in accompanying families to accept critical patient conditions, care and treatment procedures in the ICU which were complicated, and misunderstanding between nurse-patient and family (4) Compassion and patience are required in nurse-patient communication in ICU. The complex patient/family conditions in the ICU require nurses to choose the appropriate communication technique accompanied by a sense of compassion and patience. Nurses need to improve their ability to communicate effectively in order to lower the barriers in communicating between nurses-patients/families. Recommendations, training and assistance of effective communication become important for nurses in improving services in the Intensive Care Unit.

In intensive salmon farming, it is common practice to spread the feed over a large surface area, assuming that spreading of the feed increases feed intake in the fish. However, the impact on the feed pellets during spreading results in feed loss due to pellet breakage. In this study, feed intake, growth and signs of aggressive behavior was compared in salmon fed without or with spreading of the feed on the surface area of the tanks. Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) with initial body weight 0.6 kg were kept in 3.3 m 3 tanks supplied with sea water (salinity 32 %, mean temperature 11 °C) for one month. The salmon were fed one meal daily, either by dropping the feed from one point, or by spreading the feed over the water surface. Feed intake and growth was measured. Fin damage was given a score at termination of the trial as a measure of competitive behavior during feeding. The relative feed intake (i.e. percent of body weight per day) in salmon fed without spreading or with spreading of the feed was 0.63±0.05 and 0.64±0.02 %, respectively. The growth rate was identical in salmon fed without or with spreading of the feed, and no significant difference in variance in final weight was found. No difference in fin damage for salmon fed without or with spreading of the feed was revealed. The data showed that for the conditions used in this trial, spreading of feed had no influence on feed intake or growth of salmon.
Fish Consumption and knowledge of Chemical Pollutants among a Sample of Women Who Recently Gave Birth in Tripoli, Libya
Authors: Abuhlega Thuraya A. , Maamar Huria M
Published: April 2020

Fish and fish products are important sources of nutritional elements, especially iodine and unsaturated fatty acids (omega-3). These are essential for pregnant women and their embryos during a pregnancy period. However, women and their embryos may be exposed to chemical pollutants when they consume fish. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the consumption pattern of fish during pre-pregnancy, pregnancy and post-pregnancy periods, and explore the awareness on the chemical pollutants in fish among the women who recently gave birth in Tripoli city, Libya. This study targeted 370 women randomly in Tripoli city and collected data through a face to face questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of three parts: characteristics of new mothers; consumption of fish, crustaceans, mollusks and canned fish; and knowledge on the importance and risks of eating fish and fish products. The results showed that eating fish, crustaceans, and mollusks once a month was the highest proportion in the three periods with a percentage of 38, 38 and 41%, respectively. Sardine, sea bream and mackerel were the most fish common consumed by new mothers during the three periods. More than half of the mothers did not change the pattern of their consumption of fish, crustaceans and/or mollusks during pregnancy as compared to the pre-pregnancy period and after the birth of their children as compared to the pregnancy period. The canned tuna was the most canned fish consumed by respondents (93%). More than half of mothers realized that eating fish is important for health in general and for pregnant women with a percentage of 58 and 59%, respectively. The results of this study showed that there was a great need to raise the awareness of new mothers about chemical pollutants in fish. Furthermore, effective programs should be adopted by the competent authorities to educate mothers about what types and amounts of fish they should consume during pregnancy and the types that should be avoided.

The aims of this study is to find out how much influence GDP, exports and investment have on inflation in the five IDB member countries, namely Guinea, Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei and Jordan. The results obtained by using a quantitative analysis of panel data re-sultations resulted that there was an influence of GDP, exports and investment on inflation but not significantly to these five IDB member countries. Many outlier factors also influenced one of them because the interest-free economy began to be implemented. This study wants to observe what factors influence inflation in the country of Guinea which is one of the IDB member countries that has the poorest characteristics among other countries. The results obtained using quantitative analysis methods of multiple linear regression panel data and classical assumptions produced that the three independent variables affect the dependent variable but not significant. Where the relationship between DGP and inflation is positive, meaning that if GDP rises, inflation also rises. While the relationship between exports and investment to inflation is negative. This means that if exports rise, inflation will decrease and if investment rises, inflation will fall. So in general the government policies of the five IDB member countries must be more pro-aligned to raise the level of exports and investment in the country both foreign investment and domestic investment to help reduce the level of domestic inflation.

Aim. To determine the frequency of liver pathologies among the causes of death from gastrointestinal diseases in Krasnodar Krai in 2014–2018.

Materials and methods. The prevalence of liver pathologies in the structure of deaths from gastrointestinal diseases was studied according to the annual reports of the Bureau of Forensic Medical Examination of the Ministry of Health of Krasnodar Krai (FME Bureau), medical certificates of death (form No. 106/U-08) issued by forensic experts and registered in the mortality monitoring database (Parus information system), and data obtained from the Medical Information Analytical Centre of Krasnodar Krai for 2014-2018.

Results. Liver pathologies account for more than 50% cases in the structure of mortality from gastrointestinal diseases. More frequently, this reason caused death in 50–60 year old men and 60–65 year old women. Liver pathologies were found mainly in urban residents. It is noteworthy that, in the studied period, such deaths most frequently occurred at home, on the street, in public transport, etc.; only about 15% of patients died in hospitals. Among the registered liver diseases leading to death (ICD 10, headings K70–K77), cirrhosis of various etiologies was the leading cause, with “unspecified cirrhosis” being ranked the first place. Over the studied period, this cause of death showed a growing trend. Thus, 67.12%, 74.59%, 89.58% and 85.12% of such cases were registered in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively. In 2014–2016, cirrhosis and liver fibrosis (code K74), and alcoholic cirrhosis (code K70.3) were ranked the 2nd and 3rd more frequent death cause, respectively. Since 2017, alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver has occupied the 2nd place. However, over the 2014–2018 period, a decrease in the frequency of cirrhosis of alcoholic etiology was noted: its share was 10.52% of all cirrhosis in 2015, decreasing to 10.17%, 6.59%, 4.86% and 4.39% in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively.

Conclusion. Although mortality due to gastrointestinal diseases continues to decrease, liver pathologies remain to be the leading cause in 50% of such deaths. The leading disease is cirrhosis and unspecified liver fibrosis. According to the FME Bureau, deaths from cirrhosis occur outside hospitals in more than 85% of cases. The absence of cirrhosis verification by the etiological factor during autopsy requires the development of an algorithm of action, which should include a full-fledged investigation of the corpse, subsequent histological examination, assessment of pathomorphological signs taking into account clinical and medical history data and exclusion of the viral process by conducting serological tests.

Published: April 2020

Interdisciplinary publications suggesting an etiopathogenetic relationship between sensorineural hearing loss and some chronic non-communicable diseases were reviewed. A substantial amount of data on atherogenesis, thrombosis and immunological processes affecting the blood circulation of inner ear receptor cells has so far been accumulated. Various reasons for sensorineural hearing loss have been studied, such as changes in the rheological properties of blood; arteriole hypertonicity; precapillar sphincter dysfunction; impaired lipid metabolism leading to the lack of tissue oxygenation and dystrophy and necrosis of the organ of Corti. The definition of endothelial dysfunction has been given. The role of vasomotor, thrombophilic, adhesive and angiogenic forms of endothelial dysfunction in the development and progression of sensorineural hearing loss under the influence of harmful work-related factors, with arterial hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes mellitus with the most common and aggressive disorders of the microvasculature has been determined. A clear relationship between the development of sensorineural hearing loss in diabetic microangiopathy has been established. Historical data on the study of the mechanisms of sensorineural hearing loss were analyzed. The aim of this article was to conduct a literature review of interdisciplinary publications with a particular focus on the role of sensorineural hearing loss in the working population in predicting endothelial dysfunction in some chronic non-communicable diseases. The novelty of this article consists in the consideration of occupational and population risk factors for chronic non-communicable diseases in the form of their cascade, which also leads to sensorineural hearing loss.

Aim. To evaluate the level of staffing by general practitioners (GP) in medical organizations in Krasnodar Krai.

Materials and methods. Indicators characterizing the level of staffing by GPs in Krasnodar Krai hospitals were analysed using data from the state statistical observation form No. 30 “Information about a medical organization” for the 2009–2019 period. According to the data derived from the Krasnodar Krai Patient Register as of 01.01.2020, all GPs were divided into groups in terms of the ratio of the number of served population and the recommended values. Using the data of the Regional Register of Medical Workers as of 01.01.2020, the age composition of GPs was analysed.

Results. As of 01.01.2020, Krasnodar Krai featured 228 medical organizations subordinate to the Krasnodar Krai Ministry of Healthcare. Of these, 58 have full-time GP positions. The overall number of GP positions comprises 294, which are currently taken by 198 specialists (1.1% of the total number of doctors and 1.9% of doctors providing medical care on an outpatient basis). Over the studied period, stable indicators of the provision of the Krasnodar Krai population by GPs were noted; however, the level of staffing by GPs in hospitals was decreasing. This indicates a growing trend in the lack of GPs. An analysis of the actual load of 198 GPs showed that, on average, 1 GP serves 1219 people. For 26.8% of GPs, the number of served population increased the recommended values by 1.5 times or more. As a result, over 100,000 adults in the region are served under the conditions of excessive workload on GPs. The average age of GP is 50.1 ± 0.9 years. Currently, more than 25% of GPs are working retirees by age. In the medium term, this value may exceed 50%. Considering specialists who are about to retire, the estimated need for GPs is 146 doctors.

Conclusion. In order to provide affordable and high-quality primary health care to the population in Krasnodar Krai, the number of GPs should be increased. In addition, measures should be taken to raise the attractiveness of work in Krasnodar Krai hospitals.

Aim. To compare the results of lower limb revascularization in patients with diffuse lesions of lower limb arteries who underwent femoral-distal bypass surgery and isolated reconstruction of the deep femoral artery (DFA) in the immediate postoperative period.

Materials and methods. The study included 86 patients with diffuse arterial lesions of lower extremities, 52 (60.4%) men and 34 (39.6%) women with the average age of 67.3 ± 16.8 years. All patients had diffuse lesions of the arteries below the Poupart’s ligament; the condition of the lower leg arteries was 5–8.5 points on the Rutherford scale. Trophic ulcers were present in all cases. Group 1 included 48 patients who underwent reconstruction of lower leg arteries. Group 2 included 38 patients whose surgical intervention was limited to endarterectomy from the common femoral and deep femoral arteries.

Results. In the early postoperative period, 1 (2.1%) patient (from group 1) died from developed myocardial infarction. The patient underwent a femoral-popliteal-tibial bypass surgery with a composite Y-shaped graft. In group 2, no fatal complications were observed. After the operation, all patients demonstrated an increase in the linear blood flow velocity in the arteries of the foot and the transcutaneous oxygen tension (TOT). The TOT level 14 days after surgery comprised 44.1 mm Hg and 39.9 mm Hg (p> 0.05) in groups 1 and 2, respectively.

Conclusions. In 86.8% of patients, isolated profundoplasty followed by vasotropic therapy allows the target values of TOT to be obtained, which is necessary for successful healing of lower limb trophic ulcers.

Aim. To study the effect of mutations in the KRAS gene on the clinical course of intrahepatic cholangiocellular cancer (ICC) after surgical treatment in the Russian population.

Materials and methods. A molecular genetic study of tumour tissue samples from 33 patients with intrahepatic cholangiocellular cancer obtained after surgical treatment was carried out using real-time polymerase chain reaction.

Results. In the Russian population, the frequency of mutations in the KRAS gene in ICC was 27%, mainly in 12 (78%), 13 (33%), 61 (55%), 117 (44%) and 146 (44%) codons of 2, 3, 4 exons. In terms of KRAS gene mutations, intrahepatic cholangiocellular cancer is characterised by a pronounced heterogeneity. As a rule, the KRAS gene demonstrates multiple mutations at several loci and co-mutations in other genes, in particular, in IDH1/IDH2, PIK3CA, NRAS and BRAF genes. KRAS gene mutations in ICC were found to be significantly more common in women. The overall survival rate was significantly higher in patients with a KRAS mutation as compared to those with the wild type of the gene. Regarding the relapse-free survival rate in the groups of patients with the mutant and wild type of the KRAS gene, no significant differences were found.

Conclusion. In the Russian population, no negative association between mutations in the KRAS gene and clinical outcomes was observed.
