The aim of our study is a comprehensive echo assessment of the LV  function using the speckle tracking technique in children with abnormal origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery in the late postoperative period аnd a comparative analysis segmental longitudinal and circumferential LV deformation with cardiac magnetic resonance late enhancement of myocardium.  

Methods. The search is a prospective observational study. We examined and analyzed 25 children with AOLCA from PA in late postoperative period. Obtained morphofunctional LV and RV echo parameters were compared with LV ejection fraction and dimensions, the grade of mitral insufficiency and age at the time of operation. CMR was performed in 15 patients (60%; n = 15/25) using Avanto 1.5T. The average age of children at the time of the study was 8.8 ± 3.5 years.

Results. 1) Reduce of LV segmental longitudinal deformation is unique in each patient’s case. The largest number of segments with reduced longitudinal deformation was detected in the 2d (anteroseptal basal); in 4th (inferior basal); 5th (inferolateral basal), 6th (anterolateral basal),  11th (inferolateral middle) segments of LV myocardium. 2) There is no relationship between LV global longitudinal and circumferential deformation in children in the late postoperative period after correction of AOLCA from PA and initial LV morphological and functional echo data (at the time of defect correction). 3) Segmental LV longitudinal deformation Area Under the Curve is 0.64 (0.56–0.72) with “cut-off” 9.5% with a sensitivity of 92% and a specificity of 85% and circumferential segmental deformity Area Under the Curve is 0.48 (0.40–0.56) in the predicting of fibrosis according to CMR data.

Published: December 2023

Research on Islamization of mosque at tomb complex (masjid makam) has not been found much. The aim is to examine the new meaning of Islam to differentiate from Hindu-Buddha in mosque architecture in Sunan Drajat’s tomb and masjid makam. This research used a semiotic analysis about the Islamization on architecture aspects. The conclusion is the continuity of Islamization in rituals is more dominated in the tomb of Sunan Drajat than in masjid makam. Barokah well has connotative meanings as a source of blessings and sustenance. Mustaka has the connotative meaning as a symbolization of one god. The seven terraces symbolize the seven tanazul or the creation of humans to a perfect level. The existence of the Sunan Drajat’s tomb and masjid makam had an impact on the settlements growth and creates a city image that Paciran Lamongan is a pondok pesantren city.

Based on this, research on the development of the use of vegetable pesticides needs to be intensified in order to obtain reliable plant pesticides for controlling pests and plant diseases, which are not much different in effectiveness from synthetic pesticides and are environmentally friendly. Fusarium oxysporum is one of the pathogens that is very difficult to control, is a soil borne pathogen that has a very large number of species forms, with symptoms of attack on plants in the form of wilting and rot. Its name depends on the host it attacks, one of which is quite important and very detrimental to farmers is Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense, Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. capsici, Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. zingiberi. This article presents several essential oil vegetable pesticides that have been tested against the pathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum which causes fusarium wilt and rot in several cultivated plants. It is hoped that these vegetable pesticides can reduce the use of synthetic pesticides.

Published: December 2023

Subject. The article deals with assessment of threats to tax security of the Vologda Oblast in the context of innovative economy development. During the development of the country’s technological sovereignty and innovative economy to resist the pressure of Western countries, it is critical to determine possible directions for improving the tax security of regions.
Objectives. The study aims to analyze the impact of conditions for innovative economy development on tax security of the region, using the Vologda Oblast case.
Methods. We employ special economic methods, including structural and dynamic analysis, analysis of tax base formation for taxes.
Results. The paper presents our own definition of the concept of tax security of the region. It shows that in order to ensure the tax security of the region, the tendency to establish a regional budget based on corporate income tax is negative. We proved that innovative economy development with intangible assets on the balance sheet of enterprises will be a threat to tax security of the region, since their amortization will reduce the taxable income tax base. Using the PAO Severstal case, we demonstrate the possibility of enterprises to legitimately reduce the tax base for corporate income tax through managing the structure of net income and increasing the share of amortization.
Conclusions. In conditions of innovative economy development, personal income tax should become the main tax that forms the budget of the region. The findings can be used by government authorities when planning the regional budget and establishing tax benefits.

Published: December 2023

The article presents the first archaeometric investigation of the typologically and chronologically diverse assemblage of medieval and post-medieval glass from the Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Sixty samples, comprised of various vessels, lamps, beads, and window glass (oculi), and dated between the 12th and 18th century, were analysed with simultaneous PIGE-PIXE methods. The results show that most items were made with the ash of halophytic plants harvested in the Levant, but these can be divided into several compositional subtypes, among which white and common glass are the most numerous. Most glasses can be attributed to the north Italian or Levantine workshops; however, a few analysed samples are of the mixed-alkali type, façon de Venise, and Mesopotamian Type I glass. Furthermore, a few distinct samples were made with purer soda sources. The findings corroborate Dubrovnik’s strong cultural and economic links with the Venetian glassmaking tradition and underline the influence and preference of the Mediterranean seafaring trade routes over the continental European ones; an unsurprising fact, considering the status of the Dubrovnik Republic as a stronghold of maritime trade in the period.

Ceboruco, located in the western part of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt is an active stratovolcano in Nayarit, Mexico, with the last historic eruption in 1870–1875. The fertile valleys around this volcano have been occupied for several thousands of years. The recognised pre-Hispanic human settlements include the Shaft tomb and Aztatlán cultures, which were present in the vicinity of the volcano before and after the well-studied Plinian Jala eruption in 890 AD, respectively. Both cultures left abundant archaeological materials in housing units and cemeteries, including obsidian tools. In this study, we compare archaeological samples (poorly preserved tools or parts of them) with obsidian samples from local outcrops, as well as other known regional obsidian mine sites. We use hand sample and chemical analyses of main and trace elements. The results are statistically evaluated by using the Mahalanobis distance-method in order to assign probable sources. We show that obsidian has been locally extracted from long-known obsidian mines near Ixtlán del Río, but also from obsidian layers at the nearby Sierra Madre Occidental Mountain Range and the Pochotero obsidian dome. Nevertheless, clear evidence for obsidian trade since the earliest occupations has also been found, as we identified sources from the neighbouring states such as Jalisco.
Concurrent Design Optimization of Tether-Net System and Actions for Reliable Space-Debris Capture
Authors: Zeng Chen , Hecht Grant R. , Chowdhury Souma , Botta Eleonora M.
Published: December 2023

Tether-nets deployed from a chaser spacecraft are a promising solution to capturing space debris. The success of the one-shot capture process depends on the net’s structural dynamic properties, attributed to its physical design, and on the ability to perform an optimal launch and closure subject to sensing and actuation uncertainties. Hence, this paper presents a reliability-based optimization framework to simultaneously optimize the net design and its launch and closing actions to minimize the system mass (case 1) or closing time (case 2) while preserving a specified probability of capture success. Success is assessed in terms of a capture quality index and the number of locked node pairs. Gaussian noise is used to model the uncertainties in the dynamics, state estimation, and actuation of the tether-net, which is propagated via Monte Carlo sampling. To account for uncertainties and ensure computational efficiency, given the cost of simulating the tether-net dynamics, Bayesian optimization is used to solve this problem. Optimization results show that the mission success rate in the presence of uncertainties has increased from 75% to over 98%, while the capture completion time has almost halved.

The image of earth spirit in the olonkho epic. Part 2: Mythological origins
Authors:   North-Eastern Federal University named after M. K. Ammosov, Yakutsk, Russian Federation, Satanar M.T.
Published: December 2023

This article is a logical continuation of a previous study, “The image of the spirit-mistress of the earth in the Olonkho epic. Part 1: Static and dynamic characteristics,” which identified the composition of stable features of the image. The current study aims to verify the ancient roots of the anthropomorphic representation of the mistress of the earth in the context of the archaic worldview. To achieve this, the author utilized structural-semiotic and functionalsemantic types of analysis, as well as empathy and hermeneutics methods. The analysis reveals various historical layers in the image, reflecting the features of archaic strata of consciousness, specifically magism, totemism, fetishism, and animism. Additionally, the study uncovers the prerequisites for the formation of the image, represented by the elements of ancient cosmogony. The prototype of the image features a fused binary opposition of the feminine and masculine principles, with phytomorphic, ornithomorphic, and zoomorphic hypostases of the early layers of the image. The connection between the prototype and the goddess of childbirth and the patron saint of cattle breed-ing is identified. The development of the concept of the human kut ‘soul’ of the traditional worldview was found to have contributed significantly to the animistic worldview prototype design. Overall, the findings set the vector of further research towards determining the historical formation of the anthropomorphic image of Aan Alakhchyn Khotun, the Earth spirit mistress.
Functioning of different types of predicates in the Tuvan language in narrative discourse
Authors:   Institute of Philology of the SB RAS, Novosibirsk, Russian Federation, Shamina L.A.
Published: December 2023

The article examines the use of finite and infinite predicates, specifically simple and analytical ones, in Tuvan prose. Our attention is on narrative sentences that present a sequential order of events. The analysis reveals that the discourse under study is predominantly characterized by infinite forms in the finite function, such as participles (non-analytical predicates) and gerunds as the initial component of analytical predicates. The finite design of the predicate implies a sequential presentation of events unfolding in time and space. Non-analytic and analytical structures of the predicate can be distinguished based on the presence of the adverbial first component and the participial first component. The infinite organization of the predicate presupposes the possibility of a causal link between consecutive events, although this assumption is not obligatory. Analytical constructions with different semantics, such as modal, aspectual, phase, and temporal, involve the use of the participles “on = p” and “on = a.” Auxiliary verbs modify the semantics of the main verb, adding additional characteristics to the mode of action. Analytical constructions with the semantics of “almost” are regarded as a special aspectual form. It indicates that the temporal phase of the situation denoted by the auxiliary verb is very close to the initial boundary of the situation described by the semantic verb on the time axis. However, despite being on the verge of realization in the past, such a situation failed to materialize.

A very tall, middle maturing soybean cultivar Mamont, with traits of gigantism, was obtained as a result of individual selection in F4 from the hybrid combination Vilana × Pin GD for the characteristics of tall growth (> 160 cm) of the stem, large seeds, mid-ripening and non-lodging ability. Based on the results of variety testing 2020–2022, the soybean cultivar Mamont exceeded the standard cultivar Vilana by 0.18 t/ha by yield. The height of plants at the latitude of Krasnodar (45°) is 152–174 cm. In optimal cultivation conditions for moisture supply, the weight of 1000 seeds of this cultivar is 165–195 g. The phenomenon of the gigantism in plants of the Mamont cultivar in optimal growing conditions is confirmed to be 48 % more intense daily increase in plant height, and a 71% more intense daily increase in aboveground biomass compared to these indicators for the standard cultivar Vilana. The new very tall middle maturing soybean cultivar Mamont, with traits of gigantism, is distinguished by increased responsiveness to additional moisture by increasing the traits of plant height to ultra-high, increasing the number of nodes, beans and seeds, seed size and weight, and yield. It has increased resistance of tall plants to tilting and lodging due to excessive moisture due to the increased mechanical strength of the stem. Due to its tall growth and high positive response to additional moisture supply, it is suitable for cultivation in the southern foothill and central zones of the Krasnodar region and on irrigated plot throughout the North Caucasus and Lower Volga regions of the Russian Federation.

In 2021–2022, we studied the dependence between sunflower hybrid plants infection (Status, Aurus, Tyzar, Klip, and Surus) with different diseases and seed sowing (40, 60, and 80 thousand seeds/hа). Disease prevalence on plants of the studied sunflower hybrids was as following: root rot – 28%, Alternaria blight – 14–20, dry rot – 11–18, Phomopsis – 0–2, Phoma rot – 2–15%. Environmental conditions influenced a lot the plants infection with pathogen and their occurrence. Thus, in 2021, the crops were infected weakly with Phomopsis (Phomopsis helianthi Munt.), Phoma rot (Phoma macdonaldii Boerema), and rust (Puccinia helianthi Schw.) – within 1–2%, and in 2022, Phoma rot and rust – 15–16%. At a sowing rate of 40 thousand seeds/ha, sunflower plants infection with Phoma rot, dry rot, and bacterial disease raises, and at thickening up to 80 thousand seeds/ha, the plants infection with charcoal rot, rust, and alternaria blight increases. Depending the research year, there was noted a weak infection of hybrids Aurus, Tyzar, and Status with fusarium wilt and rust, Tyzar and Aurus – with bacterial disease, Aurus – with dry rot and alternaria blight.

Cabbage moth Plutella xylostella (Linnaeus, 1758) is a wide spreading pest of rapeseed and other cruciferous crops. Annual yield loses and expenses for insect control in the world are estimated at $4-5 billion. The pest has an increased tendency to develop resistance to pesticides. The modern instrumental way to monitor a number of P. xylostella is usage of traps with synthetic sex pheromone. The use of a mating disruption method allows lowering effectively a pest number and insecticide application. In 2017–2020, activity of pheromone and method of P. xylostella male disorientation were studied in rapeseed crops in the V.S. Pustovoit All-Russian Research Institute of Oil Crops, Krasnodar. The males of P. xylostella were caught in traps with all the studied types of dispensers. A pheromone demonstrated the highest activity on foil dispenser (F). The disorientation method decreased effectively a number of P. xylostella in rape-seed crops. By the end of the crop vegetation, the usage affect was high and reached 82.5%.

The main factors influencing indicators of activity of rhizosphere microbiota possessing a complex of useful qualities for plants (converting of nutrient into accessible forms, decomposition of organic materials, increase of resistance to abiotic factors, stimulating a growth, antagonism to phytopathogens, etc.) are considered. The violations of interrelations be-tween plants and their associative microorganisms caused by different factors, including the regulating by human ones – such as cultivation technologies, are able to decrease yield potential of agricultural crops including sunflower. The analytical review certifies the prospects to conduct researches allows determining an impact of agrotechnical methods (sowing dates, seed sowing rates, fertilizer, and chemical and biological plant protection) on changes in qualitative and quantitative composition of microbiota in sunflower rhizosphere and to determine their influ-ence on yield and quality of products.
Non-surgical management of a large facial antibioma with photobiomodulation as a therapeutic adjunct: A case report
Authors: Bains Rhythm , Bains Vivek Kumar , Verma Promila
Published: December 2023

The injudicious overuse of antibiotics has led to a worldwide rise in antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains. Apart from antibiotic resistance and misuse of resources, inappropriate use of antibiotics also increases the possibility of potentially fatal anaphylactic reactions and makes patients vulnerable to unwarranted side effects. Sometimes, prolonged and unnecessary use of these antibiotics, either by the treating dentist or by the patient, combined with improper drainage of the pulpal canal, may lead to the formation of a tough fibrous swelling known as antibioma. The most commonly reported treatment modality for antibioma is surgical excision and extraction of the tooth involved. However, the present case reports a non-surgical management of a large facial antibioma using photobiomodulation (PBM) (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet, 1064 nm) for management of an antibioma developed in relation to a long-standing chronic apical periodontitis in mandibular molar.

As multiple genetic and environmental factors contribute to the pathogenesis of AD, its prevalence and presentation vary among different ethnic groups residing in different geographical areas. This study was conducted to study the clinical profile and aggravating factors in cases of AD attending a tertiary hospital in Meghalaya, India, and to find a correlation of disease with serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels.

Material and Methods:

Patients suspected of AD were diagnosed on the basis of Hanifin and Rajka criteria and included in this study. All relevant demographic, anthropometric, clinical, and biochemical data were collected as per a preset pro forma. Serum IgE levels were tested for every patient using electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.

Results:

A total of 50 diagnosed cases of AD were included in our study with ages ranging from 5 months to 61 years, and the median age for the study population was 7.9 years. Male-to-female ratio was 1:1.17. Urban patients (66%) outnumbered rural patients and the majority of these patients (90%) belonged to the upper middle class (class II) according to the modified Kuppuswamy scale. The disease was aggravated in winters in 70%, in summer in 10%, due to wool in 48%, and due to food items in 22% of patients. Allergic rhinitis was found to be coexisting in 8% of patients, whereas asthma was found in 2% of patients. The predominant site of involvement was the face (91.9%) in children and the flexor surface (92.3%) among adults. The most common clinical presentation included pruritus (100%) and xerosis (98%). Serum IgE was raised in 58% of patients.

Conclusion:

Atopic dermatitis of chronic type with predominant facial involvement in children and predominant flexural involvement in adults was common in our study population. Seasonal changes, food items, and woolen clothes were common causative and exacerbating factors. Some atypical presentations included posterior thigh eczema, infra-auricular fissures, retroauricular fissures, eyelid eczema, genital dermatitis, juvenile plantar dermatoses, infranasal fissure, and follicular variant of the disease.

Published: December 2023

Background:

Occipital encephalocele is a congenital defect of the neural tube at the level of the cranial midline, which results in herniation of meninges and brain tissue. The results of the management of myelomeningocele study determine the maternal and fetal risks for an open fetal surgery and have motivated the constant review of the concepts and strategies which the pediatric neurosurgeon can employ for the treatment of neural tube defects in the prenatal period.

Case Description:

We present a case of a female patient in utero of 26 gestational weeks with the diagnosis of an occipital encephalocele treated by open fetal surgery. During week 20 of gestation, the diagnosis of occipital encephalocele was made by ultrasound, which was corroborated by fetal magnetic resonance that showed cranial protrusion of neural and meningeal content in the occipital region, measuring 1.6 × 2.8 × 3.3 cm with an approximate volume of 7.7 cc through a bone defect of 6 mm. The closure of the defect was performed by the postnatal surgical technique adapted to the open fetal surgery. Later, the patient was born transabdominal with a 2.8 cm occipital wound, with suture points and approximated borders, normocephalic, without clinical signs of sepsis, hydrocephalus, or overt neurologic compromise.

Conclusion:

Open fetal surgery is a therapeutic option in the face of an isolated occipital encephalocele. This case report demonstrates the viability of the surgical procedure by the adaptation of a postnatal surgical technique to a prenatal surgery. Further studies are needed to evaluate the long-term functional results, comparing them with those seen in patients who undergo a postnatal procedure.
