Authors: Krüger Cristiane , Baldassari Adriana Cristina Castanho , Lopes Luis Felipe Dias , Silva Lizana Ilha da
Published: December 2021

Technological advances make it possible to quickly access and share personal data and information, which demands greater security and requires conscious attitudes from the different professionals who deal with these issues. Accounting professionals stand out in this universe for being responsible for customer, supplier, and employee data. The information insecurity scenario led to the creation of the General Data Protection Law (GDPL), a specific legislation for personal data handling. Driven by this context, this research aimed to analyze the GDPL compliance determinants among accounting professionals. In order to achieve this purpose, we conducted a quantitative, descriptive, survey study. For data collection, we developed and applied an online questionnaire addressed to accounting professionals. The final surveyed sample totaled 194 respondents. We performed the data analysis through Structural Equation Modeling. The validated model showed the dimensions of personal behaviors and attitudes and governance mechanisms as determinants, explaining 26.3% of GDPL compliance. This research contributes to the understanding of behavioral aspects of accounting professionals in face of the new legislation. It is an unprecedented approach and fills a gap in the accounting area, presenting useful contributions for educational institutions, class associations, and companies in the area.
GENRE POETICS OF A. S. BYATT’S BOOK ‘PEACOCK & VINE’
Authors:   Perm State University, Bochkareva Nina S.
Published: December 2021

The article deals with the last book of the well-known English writer A. S. Byatt Peacock & Vine (2016) in the context of her oeuvre (novels, stories, essays). It is proved that the controversial reviews by British critics are caused by the character of the genre and the author’s mythology. The book combines biographies of two artists and an essay on design of the turn of the 19th–20th centuries. It is concluded that A. S. Byatt uses her particular method of analogy at different levels of poetics. She juxtaposes biographies and oeuvres of William Morris and Mariano Fortuny with the help of such universals as the North and the South, which acquire a complicated character due to their being represented through national (or more specifically, cultural) images and symbols. The emphasis is not so much on the life as on the oeuvre of the designers – first and foremost, their houses and fabrics as seen by Byatt herself and through her biography and oeuvre. Her main principle lies in conceiving something of her own through something of the other’s, and vice versa. While the figure of Morris in Byatt’s novel The Children’s Book (2009) was fitted in the social, political, and psychoanalytical contexts of the epoch, the book Peacock & Vine ‘illuminates’ the artist’s life both with his own works and Fortuny’s experiments with colors and light. The main evaluation criteria are color (light) and proportion (contexture), distinctive for both the artists’ design and Byatt’s style. However, in verbal interpretation of floral and animalistic ornaments (vines and pomegranates, peacocks and phoenixes, lions and dragons), one can see a comprehensive dialogue between paganism and Christianity, past days and modernity, a man and a woman, two famous designers, ars nouveau and ars deco. Illustrations (photographs, drawings, reproductions) together with the verbal text of the biographical essay make an organic whole of the book, which emphasizes a special role of paratext in Byatt’s works. Searching for words to represent visual images is a special task for an author of a biographical essay that she was conscious about in her works. In the book Peacock & Vine, Byatt acquires the accuracy and clarity of the language she was dreaming of when working over the novel Still Life (1985). At the same time, simplicity and complexity of her style have become an integral part of her own mythology. The Englishman Morris, being passionate about the Middle Ages and the North, travelled to Iceland and conceived of the Scandinavian saga as a real history. In the Byatt’s book he is compared with the Spaniard Fortuny, who had a penchant for Classical Antiquity and the Mediterranean world, lived in Paris and Venice, and conceived of the Scandinavian saga only through the prism of the Wagner Theatre. As to the Byatt’s love to Scandinavian mythology, it goes back to her war-time childhood, which is reflected in her book Ragnarok: The End of the Gods (2011).

The paper describes the main results of the intense discussion of current challenges related to using new digital technologies and emerging online risks in various spheres of human life within a framework of the International Online Conference «The Topical Issues of Applied Psychology in the Current Social and Cultural Context» (November 30 – December 3, 2020) organized by the Udmurt State University (the city of Izhevsk, Russian Federation). The conference has been held primarily due to the necessity of drawing the authorities’ attention to the critical concerns regarding psychological prevention of suicidal behavior in the region. The conference included a variety of the events: three symposia, sections for university and secondary school students; workshops and a documentary film discussion. According to the results of the conference debates and discussions, it has been pointed out that incorporation of digital technologies in psychological practice (counselling, therapy, etc.) provides psychology professionals with new opportunities through expanding their self-boundaries and enriching the field of professional reflection with additional meanings and senses. It is recognized that using artificial intelligence tools for initial appointments, basic diagnosis, and psychological prevention will facilitate professional activities of a psychology practitioner. The problem of psychological effects of everyday life application of digital technologies to maintain individual well-being, notably, the regulation of one’s own inner space and coping with difficult situations is specified. It has been stated that transdisciplinary studies of the effectiveness of diverse organizational forms of teaching and learning (onsite, distance, online, etc.) in connection with the subjective well-being of students are believed to be forward-looking and promising.
THE PROBLEM OF ANDROGYNOUS IDEAL OF A HUMAN BEING IN V.V. ROZANOV’S PHILOSOPHY OF SEX
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Ivanova Tatyana A.
Published: December 2021

The purpose of this article is a philosophical and anthropological analysis of the ideal of androgyne in V.V. Rozanov’s metaphysics of sex. The main focus is on the comparison of the destructive and constructive forms of the androgyne in his philosophy. According to the philosopher, destructive forms include people of «moonlight» or «third sex», who are considered the founders of New Testament Christianity, denying the life of the flesh. Constructive forms are the natural androgyny of a child and the androgyny of a married couple, which reveals itself in love, dynamics, mutual complementarity of a man and a woman. The paper draws parallels between N.A. Berdyaev’s and V.V. Rozanov’s concepts of androgyne, which are antipodal in terms of direction of thought but have common meanings. It is concluded that thesimilarity between the concepts lies in the understanding of gender as a dynamic and metaphysical principle that penetrates through not only the bodily but also the spiritual life of a person, and therefore cannot be rejected. The concepts are also similar in that they draw a boundary between the androgyne and the hermaphrodite, of which the former is the ideal of the human wholeness, while the latter is an unsuccessful attempt to achieve it. The differences between these philosophers consist in the priority of spiritual love in Berdyaev’s system and worldly, bodily love in Rozanov’s, as well as in a different understanding of the process of an androgyne being generated in a person, which, in Berdyaev’s conception, is individual and arises in each of the persons who are in love with each other, while, according to Rozanov, it is exclusively achievable in couples. The paper also pays attention to Rozanov’s own theology, which renews the Old Testament family ideals, offering the concept of God as a «sexual» being and proposing to consider the act of love within marriage as a sacred mystery that unites a person with God in co-creation. The study allows us to rethink the modern problems of gender self-determination of a person, returning to the metaphysical foundations of the Russian philosophy of gender, the main task of which was the synthesis of the spiritual and bodily principles in a person.
INTERRELATION OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND COGNITIVE REGULATION OF EMOTIONS IN LATE ADOLESCENCE
Authors:   Institute of Psychology of Russian Academy of Sciences, Ulanova Anna Yu.
Published: December 2021

Combined study of emotional intelligence and emotional regulation allows us to obtain information not only about individual differences in the understanding and management of emotions but also about the cognitive processes by which regulation is carried out. Emotion management becomes especially relevant in adolescence, as this age is characterized by emotional vulnerability and risk of deviant behavior. This study deals with the abilities being part of emotional intelligence in their relation to the cognitive components of emotional regulation, namely, the ways and strategies of response that prevail in the behavior of adolescents. The study involved 72 respondents aged 14–16 years. The results showed the specificity of cognitive regulation of emotions and emotional intelligence in older adolescents. The group of respondents with high emotional intelligence more often employ effective strategies for regulating emotions, while the rates of using destructive strategies decrease. Participants with low emotional intelligence use effective and destructive strategies almost equally. Those participants who effectively manage their emotions most often use strategies such as creating a positive meaning for the event or switching to more pleasant thoughts. Destructive strategies for regulating emotions have a negative relationship with emotional intelligence: the greatest number of correlations was revealed for the strategies «Catastrophizing» and «Rumination», also associated with depression. The results obtained clarify the specific features of the relationship between cognitive regulation of emotions and emotional intelligence in older adolescents, and also allow us to describe the contribution of these abilities to the formation of the psychological well-being.

The results of detailed mineralogical studies of the Malyutka massif altered rocks of the Khudolazovskiy differentiated complex are presented. The morphology and chemical composition of many rock-forming and accessory minerals are described. According to the study, the magmatic and post-magmatic (hydrothermal-metasomatic) stages of rock formation are distinguished. The problems associated with the genetic interpretation of a number of rock-forming and ore minerals are discussed. The conclusion about the polygenic nature of the formation of spinelids is made. The equilibrium temperature in the «Ti-magnetite–ilmenite» system (633–650 °C), as well as the crystallization temperature of chlorite, replacing phlogopite and hornblende (145–185 °C), were estimated.
Speficic Moral and Psychological Characteristics of Criminals Convicted for Crimes of Terrorism and Extremism
Authors: Kazberov Pavel , Alekhin Igor , Kulakova Svetlana
Published: December 2021

The authors continued their research of the personalities of terrorists and extremists and studied characteristics of 700 persons convicted for crimes of terrorism and extremism who served their sentences in penitentiary institutions of all territorial divisions of the Russian Federation. They studied indicators of additional scales of MMPI test, questionnaires, interviews, materials of personal files, court decisions (verdicts), disciplinary practice, penitentiary and criminal law characteristics, and made a number of conclusions.
First, the results allowed the authors to verify a number of hypotheses on personal characteristics of terrorists and extremists analyzed by psychologists and criminologists.
Second, generalized characteristics of persons convicted for terrorism and extremism crimes acquired through the use of additional MMPI scales proved and supplemented similar results from the basic scales of this methodology. Specifically, the authors found proof of a prominent conversion type of the personality profile of examined individuals manifested in a number of ambivalent conditions and aspirations.
Third, the results also allowed to define key characteristics of the substructure of personality orientation of convicts of this category: amorality in their value system; following their own convictions, personal norms and principles; immunity against any moral authority; conviction that only their actions, deeds and life in general are the right ones, disregard for social values.
Fourth, field data showed that it is necessary to single out one more (a third) subcategory of convicts who committed combined extremism-terrorism crimes. Based on the definition of this subcategory, such convicts committed several (two or more) crimes of both extremism and terrorism nature as part of one criminal case and, correspondingly, one court decision (verdict).
A targeted approach to the correction and prevention work with this category of criminals convicted for terrorism and extremism crimes makes it necessary to examine the characteristics of each subcategory of convicts included in this category.
The Criminological Description and Prevention of School Shootings and Cyberbullying in Russia and Abroad
Authors: Volchetskaya Tatyana , Avakyan Michael , Osipova Ekaterina
Published: December 2021

The authors analyze modern manifestations of violence in educational establishments, such as school shootings and cyberbullying. Cyberbullying and, to a greater degree, school shootings remain practically unresearched by Russian legal scholars, while foreign authors stress the necessity of their research with the purpose of identifying the determinants of deviant behavior and optimizing its prevention. The authors used the materials of criminal cases to study the criminological characteristics of cyberbullying and school shootings, and identified their close interconnection. They analyzed and specified the conceptual framework, offered a classification of school shootings, and described their main types. It is stated that mass murders in educational establishments are an independent criminal phenomenon not connected with the concept of a terrorist attack, involvement of young people into extremist activities or driving an adolescent to a suicide. A general criminological description of school shootings is presented: the authors show its dynamics in Russia and abroad and single out its key determinants. The criminological features of the personality of the criminal are described using the following indices: gender, age, education, specifics of upbringing, moral and psychological traits, specifics of goals and ambitions, etc. It is stated that in the overwhelming majority of cases attacks in educational establishments were carried out by males of 14–18 years old. Most perpetrators had skills in the use of firearms. The authors examined foreign publications on the topic and conducted a comparative analysis of the spread of school shootings and cyberbullying in Russia, the USA and the EU countries from the standpoint of situational approach. It was determined that the overwhelming number of cases of school shootings registered in the world history happened in the USA, while in the EU the cases were evidently sporadic. In Russia in the last seven years there has been a trend for annual mass murders in educational institutions. Using the analysis of foreign experience and the results of a large-scale interviewing of schoolchildren and teachers in different regions of Russia, the authors suggest measures of preventing school shootings and cyberbullying while taking into account specific national features.
The Forensic Prevention of Crimes Related to the Provision of Medical Care of Undue Quality
Authors: Shepelev Sergey , Antonov Oleg
Published: December 2021

The article describes the history and modern condition of the criminalistic science which studies crime prevention. The authors argue that it is necessary to develop criminalistic recommendations on crime prevention as an element of special methodologies of investigating certain types of crimes. As for the investigation of crimes connected with the provision of medical care of undue quality, the authors prove that the investigators should involve the following categories of specialists when establishing the circumstances which contributed to the commission of the crime: persons that exercise administrative control and supervision in the healthcare sphere, representatives of insurance companies working in the system of obligatory insurance, as well as departmental experts, because timely and effective use of special knowledge is a vital condition for improving the quality of prevention work in the process of criminal investigation, it is the best guarantee of the comprehensive character of investigative actions aimed at the identification of circumstances leading to the crime and the development of preventive measures. The authors also present tactical recommendations on the choice and involvement of each of the abovementioned categories of specialists in the investigation of the analyzed type of crimes.
The authors use the example of the practice of investigative bodies of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation to single out stages of preventive work of the investigator in the investigation of healthcare crimes: identification of causes and conditions contributing to the crime; preparation and presentation of a statutory notice to eliminate the identified circumstances; participation in the consideration of this notice; analysis of measures undertaken by the addressee of the statutory notice to enforce the prevention act of the investigator. They also present tactical recommendations on measures of criminalistic prevention at each of the identified stages.
Optimal sizing for a grid-connected hybrid renewable energy system: A case study of the residential sector in Durban, South Africa
Authors: Ghayoor Farzad , Swanson Andrew , Sibanda Hudson
Published: December 2021

Many countries, including South Africa, have introduced policies and incentives to increase their renewable energy capacities in order to address environmental concerns and reduce pollutant emissions into the atmosphere. In addition, consumers in South Africa have faced the ever-increasing price of electricity and unreliability of the grid since 2007 due to the lack of sufficient electricity production. As a result, employing hybrid renewable energy systems (HRESs) have gained popularity. This research focuses on grid-connected HRESs based on solar photovoltaic (PV) panels and wind turbines as a potential way of reducing the dependency of residential sector consumers on the grid. It aims to identify the optimal sizing of renewable energy sources to be cost-effective for consumers over a certain period of time, using Durban as a case study. Two artificial intelligence methods have been used to obtain the optimal sizing for the available PV panels, wind turbines and inverters. The results shown that the combination of PV panels and battery storage can be a profitable option. A system using higher rated power PV panels can start to become profitable in a shorter lifetime, but employing batteries can only be cost-effective if a long enough lifetime is considered.
Electric energy planning in Namibe, Angola: Inserting renewable energies in search of a sustainable energy mix
Authors: Lemba I. , Ferreira Dias M. , Robaina M.
Published: December 2021

The socioeconomic development of any region requires electricity for operating the various sectors of the economy. Sometimes energy is scarce, not only because of the lack of energy resources, but also because energy policy is inadequate or non-existent. This paper examines the situation in the province of Namibe, Angola, characterising the energy sector, and proposing an energy mix for the security of electricity supply, environmental protection and sustainable economic development. Using the Long-range Energy Alternative and Planning System, energy scenarios were simulated and the greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) for the period 2014-2040 calculated and analysed. The most sustainable scenario, in terms of energy mix diversification and GHG reduction, as well as the least costly (considering electricity production and carbon costs), has an increase of hydro capacity and the insertion of wind, solar photovoltaic, thermoelectric sources and natural gas. Given the intermittency of photovoltaic and wind systems, natural gas appears in this scenario as a way to avoid interruptions in the electricity supply. This scenario is the one with the largest production reserve margin of 24.47 %, and emissions are avoided at 386 550 tCO2eq compared to the base scenario in 2040. Energy policymakers can take this scenario as a model to assist in making decisions on how power capacities can be installed over the planned time for the desired energy output.
The artistic paradox of the Russian ode
Authors:   Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University, Shatin Yuri V. ,   Institute of Philology SB RAS
Published: December 2021

The paper studies the Russian ode transformation during the three hundred years of its existence. The author considers that the main mechanisms of ode transformation were not only the result of its evolution but were initially embedded in the deep structure of the genre. In the 1750s, Sumarokov created his “Vzdornye ody,” mocking the principles of Lomonosov’s baroque poetics. Later, in 1782, Derzhavin composed the ode “Felitsa” and filled its content with specific features of the lifestyle of Catherine the Great while preserving some of the features of the solemn ode. After leaving the literary arena as the leading genre of lyric poetry, the ode retained its significance as the genre memory, with the process of disintegration of the unity of the signifier and the signified taking place. The signifier is associated with the traditional scheme of the odic decima - ababccdeed, and the signified retained the main core of the motifs characteristic of the solemn ode of the 18th century. At the same time, the decima itself actively penetrated the speech of large genres - the poem and the poetic story - as a quotation and thus restores the lost unity. In the 20th century, the irony penetrated the depths of nuclear motifs, preserving a secret meaning for the poet’s inner circle, for example, Akhmatova’s verses about Stalin. Thus, the poetic fate of the ode is somewhat similar to that of the novel, combining, to quote Boileau, the bizarre chaos of thoughts with the exceptional verification of its basic artistic parameters.
“...This plan was conceived by me...”: On the background of D. Merezhkovskiy’s forgotten letter to the editors of the “Mir Iskusstva”
Authors:   A. M. Gorky Institute of World Literature RAS, Andrushchenko Elena A.
Published: December 2021

The paper clarifies the circumstances of the publication of a little-known letter by D. Merezhkovskiy in the “Mir Iskusstva” (“World of Art”) journal. The letter was published under the same rubric as a letter by Yu. Ozarovskiy, director of the Alexandrinsky Theatre, a person far from the journal’s editorial board, giving the impression of a public debate between like-minded people. Recreating the details of the struggle for setting ancient Greek tragedies in D. Merezhkovskiy’s translations on the stages of Russian theatres, based on forgotten publications of those years, indicates that the staging of “Hippolytus”, a tragedy by Euripides, was regarded by the “Mir Iskusstva” association as evidence of the effectiveness of their program in the struggle for new theatrical art. It was not D. Merezhkovskiy who played the leading role in this process, as he wrote in his letter, but D. Filosofov, who sought to stage the tragedy as a mystery play. Disagreements between D. Merezhkovskiy and the creative association of the “Mir Iskusstva” appeared later, when their aesthetic, religious, and philosophical views began to differ. However, during the production of “Hippolytus”, these differences did not prevent them from participating in joint projects as a new artistic force. It should be recognized that ancient Greek tragedies in D. Merezhkovskiy’s translations played a part in the history of the Russian theatre: the debate about the concept of performances, the specifics of L. Bakst’s sets, and musical accompaniments was an important step in the development of the theatre in expanding its expressive capabilities.
Method of visualization (perception) in the plays of Alexander Stroganov
Authors:   University of Białystok, Malyutina Nataliya P.
Published: December 2021

The purpose of the paper is to analyze how the thematization of the perception of the world is implemented in the plays by A. Stroganov: ‘Halo,’ ‘Halo and the Night,’ ‘The Greatness of the Swing,’ ‘Black, White, Accents of the Red, Orange. Control Prints in two acts.’ The analysis of poetics proves that the visualization of metaphors creates the effect of optical illusions, resulting in the action acquiring a symbolic-magical character. The metatheatrical way of multiplying action plans (conditional-substantial and projective-illusory) allows presenting the technique of switching one’s attention to the imaginary elements. Visual projections of parareal events objectify the ability of the characters (and consequently readers/viewers) to see and perceive their inner world. A conclusion is made that in the plays under study, the integrity of the dramatic action is lost, whereas voices, gestures, images-paths, and photographs are constantly pulsating in the poetics of the text, with their ability to visualize the world vision image embodying the performative potential of action. The way to complete the integrity is the reader / viewer’s preexisting representations and interactive participation in the creation of textual projections of image-metaphors. Such absolutization of a single dramatic technique leads to a multidimensional artistic reading of A. Stroganov’s plays in the context of his theory of pararealism.
Non-fairy prose of the Yugan Khanty in field materials of the Institute of Philology SB RAS
Authors:   Institute of Philology of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Sagalaev Konstantin A.
Published: December 2021

The paper deals with the existence of non-fairy prose genres, such as mythological stories, cosmogonic and etiological myths, shamanic legends, in the folklore of the modern Yugan Khanty. The Yugan Khanty have largely preserved their traditional culture and, in particular, folklore. The research materials are the texts recorded by the author during the expeditions to the Maly and Bolshoy Yugan rivers in 2013 and 2019. Five texts were studied representing the current state of the folklore genres under study in this local ethnic group of Khanty. These are mythological stories about dreams, their possible interpretations and ritual practices associated with them, about fighting forest fires with the help of “home fire,” shamanic legends about shaman’s help with illness or other problems, the legend about a monster living in a lake. These previously unpublished texts are introduced into scientific circulation, with their textual and typological analysis carried out and parallels with already published folklore texts and scientific literature on this topic drawn. The paper presents the motives of the recorded cosmogonic and etiological myths about the waterfowl that provided the land for people and the origin of a bear. The definition of what is meant by non-fairy prose is given. A conclusion is made about the relatively high degree of preservation of these genres in Yugan, and the possibility for them to be further collected, studied, and published is discussed.
Structural and semantic types of conditional sentences in the Altai language
Authors:   Institute of Philology of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Ozonova Aiiana A.
Published: December 2021

We analyze the structural-semantic types of conditional polypredicative constructions in the Altai language. Conditional relations are expressed by monofinite constructions with an all-Turkic conditional-temporal form with =sa, analytical conditional forms with bolzo ‘if’ and a rare conditional-temporal form with =qažïn. The all-Turkic =sa form does not have an absolute temporal meaning: this meaning is communicated by the main clause, with its predicate commonly used in the future tense or imperative mood. The analytical conditional forms consist of the participial form and the verb bol= ‘to be, to become’ in the conditional mood, with personal formants in the first and second person and zero formants in the third person. The participial forms within an analytical form express the temporal meanings. We distinguish proper conditional and improper conditional constructions with different modal planes of the dependent clauses: irreal modality in proper conditional constructions and real modality in improper conditional ones. Improper conditional constructions include some temporal, causal, subordinate, and comparative clauses following the conditional construction model. Proper conditional constructions fall into potential-conditional and irreal-conditional subtypes according to their semantic and formal traits. Potential-conditional constructions denote possible events. However, irreal-conditional constructions denote events that could not, cannot, and will not take place. In potential-conditional constructions, the main predicates are represented by indicative, imperative, and optative forms, with the subjunctive mood used in irreal-conditional constructions. In Altai conditional constructions, the taxis dependence between conditions and consequences is defined by the possibility of two types of correlation (from three possible correlations), namely ‘condition before consequence’ and ‘simultaneous condition and consequence.
A book review: The History of Ural Literature. 19th century. In 2 vols. Ed. by E. K. Sozina. Moscow, Publishing house JASK, 2021, vol. 1. 664 p.; vol. 2. 778 p.

Published: December 2021

The review deals with the second volume of the academic edition “The History of Ural Literature,” prepared by a group of scholars from the Ural-Siberian scientific community. The merit of the issue is presenting the literary process and the Ural writers’ community as a complex sociocultural phenomenon aimed at work professionalization and connected with the history of the region’s self-determination. When presenting specific names, the authors of the project followed the principle description tasks: to show the connection of the writer’s biography and work with the territory, to emphasize how the works are filled with impressions of Ural life, to draw attention to the writer’s involvement in local cultural communities and support from leading literary figures and critics. Since the book covers a wide range of authors, a number of conclusions significant for the regional literary process understanding can be drawn. Biography materials allow speaking of a variety of social segments of people involved in writing: from base estates and plant workers to noble and intellectual people. Not everyone was ready for professional literary activity, but all quite openly demonstrated their reading tastes. By the end of the century, the cultural and aesthetic commonality of the Ural literature is defined. Its specific writing style becomes distinctive, with a tendency toward documentality, autobiography, and ethnography. Genre preferences become apparent. Genre preferences become apparent. Most importantly, the names appear, starting to be identified by critics as “the Urals writer.”
Text universals as a theoretical concept

Published: December 2021

The universals of the artistic language are fundamentally different from the universals of other language systems. The artistic language itself is opposed to both the so-called “natural” languages and artificial systems since it acts as a secondary modeling system resulting from the removal of such universals inherent in ordinary speech as automatism in the use of already existing statements, an orientation towards ease of understanding, etc. Secondary modeling systems are immanent, unique, and exclusive in each case. The paradox of the universals of the artistic language is that its code uniqueness is created anew every time and does not depend on the thematic content of the statement. At relatively late stages of development, the artistic language creates specific universals that are fundamentally impossible in other language systems. The most significant universal of artistic language is the presence of two co-opposed speech systems - verse and prose - in their various ratios, depending on the genre and direction. A more complex case can be observed in folklore and early literature, where syncretic forms predominate. The universals of the artistic language, as a rule, turn out to be closely tied to the artistic text. The article identifies five pairs of oppositions that claim to be called universals of a literary text: repetition - contrast, symmetry - asymmetry, background - figure, one’s own - someone else’s, discrete - continuous.

Remaining useful life prediction of cylinder liner based on nonlinear degradation model
Authors: Kang Jianxiong , Lu Yanjun , Zhao Bin , Luo Hongbo , Meng Jiacheng , Zhang Yongfang
Published: December 2021

In order to effectively monitor the wear and predict the life of cylinder liner, a nonlinear degradation model with multi-source uncertainty based on Wiener process is established to evaluate the remaining useful life (RUL) of cylinder liner wear. Due to complex service performance of cylinder liner, the uncertainty of operational environment and working conditions of cylinder liner wear are considered into the model by a random function. The probability density function (PDF) formula of RUL is derived, and the maximum likelihood estimation method is adopted to estimate the unknown parameters of PDF. Considering the evaluated parameters as the initial values, the model parameters are updated adaptively, and an adaptive PDF is obtained. Furthermore, the proposed model is compared with two classical degradation models. The results show that the proposed model has a good performance for predicting the life, and the error is within 5%. The method can provide a reference for condition monitoring of cylinder liner wear.
Análisis de un protocolo preventivo contextualizado en jóvenes futbolistas
Authors: Lorente-Corvi Rafael
Published: December 2021

El fútbol es un deporte altamente lesivo debido a diversos factores. La lesión disminuye el rendimiento no solo del jugador sino también del equipo, lo que crea la necesidad de establecer programas preventivos para paliar, en la medida de lo posible, la tasa lesional. El objetivo del presente estudio fue diseñar un programa preventivo contextualizado y analizar la reducción lesional derivada de su implementación en jóvenes futbolistas. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 20 futbolistas de la categoría juvenil del Fútbol Club Cartagena, con una media de 6 horas de entrenamiento semanal. Tras una breve valoración inicial, llevaron a cabo un nuevo protocolo de prevención con diferentes ejercicios agrupados en 2 niveles de dificultad. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo de cada una de las variables cuantitativas. Los resultados muestran una disminución del 65% del número total lesiones, entre temporadas, y en gran medida de las graves. La tasa de reducción lesiva obtenida está por encima de diferentes estudios que analizan la eficacia en diversos programas preventivos. Un programa de entrenamiento preventivo basado en la contextualización de los participantes ha resultado en una reducción de la tasa lesiva.

El fútbol es un deporte que, por la alta exigencia física que requiere, lleva asociado un elevado riesgo de lesión. Dada la magnitud del problema, los investigadores han optado por diseñar estrategias preventivas que ayuden a minimizar la incidencia de lesión en este deporte. Estas estrategias se han organizado como programas de calentamiento previo a la participación en el deporte. Sin embargo, la evidencia sobre el efecto agudo de estas intervenciones sobre parámetros del rendimiento físico es escasa. Por tanto, el objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar el efecto agudo del programa Knäkontroll (nivel B) sobre parámetros del rendimiento físico en jugadores de fútbol de categoría juvenil. Para ello, se utilizó un diseño cuasi-experimental pre-test y post-test, empleando la estabilidad dinámica de la extremidad inferior (Y-Balance Test), la cinemática de la caída en salto vertical (Tuck Jump Assessment [TJA]), el rango de movimiento articular de la dorsiflexión de tobillo (ROM-Sport), la distancia de salto horizontal unilateral (Single-Legged Hop Tests), y la altura de salto vertical unilateral (Single Leg Countermovement Jump [SLCMJ]) como principales medidas del rendimiento físico. Los resultados mostraron un incremento significativo del rendimiento para todas las variables tras la implementación del programa Knäkontroll, a excepción de la altura en el SLCMJ y la cinemática en el TJA. En conclusión, el programa Knäkontroll se presenta como una estrategia adecuada para su aplicación como calentamiento previo a la práctica del fútbol. No obstante, la inclusión de ejercicios (o variantes) adicionales que trabajen el componente pliométrico podría contribuir a la mejora del desempeño en el salto vertical.

Aim. To study the frequency of polymorphisms in genes associated with lipid metabolism disorders in young people with risk of sudden cardiac death, to identify the relationships between gene polymorphisms and risk factors of sudden cardiac death, and to develop mathematical models to identify the probability of carrying mutations in these genes.

Methods. The study included 436 young people (mean age 19.81.6 years). A standard examination and survey by questionnaire specially developed by us were conducted to identify an increased risk of sudden cardiac death. 59 individuals with a risk of sudden cardiac death were selected. The control group was 65 people, which was comparable to the study group. A blood test was performed to determine lipid profile and polymorphisms: Leu28Pro (rs 429358) in gene APOE, C3238G (rs 5128) in gene APOC3, Gln192Arg (rs 662) in gene PON1, Ser447Ter (rs 328) in gene LPL, G250A (rs 1800588) in gene LIPC. Statistical analysis was performed using the statistical package SPSS 17.0 and Statistica 6.0. The parametric KruskalWallis test, the MannWhitney U-test, the Pearsons chi-squared test, the Spearman rank correlation coefficient, and logistic regression analysis were used.

Results. We revealed a high frequency of Gln192Arg (rs 662) polymorphism in the PON1 gene in the group of individuals at risk of sudden cardiac death and its correlation with the deaths in relatives under age 50 years. Mathematical models for predicting the presence of polymorphisms in genes associated with lipid metabolism disorders have been developed. Among the developed mathematical models, the models for identifying carriers of the minor allele of Gln192Arg polymorphism in the PON1 gene, Ser447Ter in the LPL gene, and 250 GA in the LIPC gene had the highest sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy.

Conclusion. In persons at risk for sudden cardiac death, it is advisable to conduct a screening for mutations in genes associated with lipid metabolism disorders, especially in Gln192Arg polymorphism in gene PON1.

Aim. To study the indicators of the immune status and manifestations of allergic diseases in HIV-infected patients in the Novgorod region. Methods. We studied the data of HIV-infected patients living in the Novgorod region for the years 20002021. A total of 1020 cases of HIV infection were studied, in which 121 (12%) patients were diagnosed with allergic reactions. In patients with allergic manifestations, the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 ribonucleic acid content was measured by the polymerase chain reaction method, and the indicators of the immune status (the content of lymphocytes, eosinophils, basophils, the levels of CD3+, CD3+CD4+, CD3+CD8+ cells, immunoregulatory index) were assessed. For statistical analysis, the Student's test (t) was used to assess the statistical significance of differences in immune status indicators, and the Pearson 2 test to assess the statistical significance of differences in allergic manifestations in patients with HIV. Results. The subjects of the study were divided into 2 groups based on the levels of HIV viral load. Analysis of these groups using the Pearson 2 test showed a statistically significant (p 0.012) correlation between high viral load and the development of drug hypersensitivity reaction in HIV-infected patients. The following etiology of allergic reactions was determined among the subjects: drug (59%), food (19%), pollen (5.7%), household (5.7%), chemical (1.9%), unspecified (6.7%). The study of the immune status in two groups did not reveal statistically significant differences (p 0.05). The study of the immune status indicators in HIV-infected patients with drug hypersensitivity reactions and different levels of viral load revealed a significantly higher level of CD3+ cells (p 0.003) in patients with drug hypersensitivity reactions and detectable viral load. Conclusion. The study revealed statistically significant differences in the immune status of HIV-infected patients with drug hypersensitivity reactions living in the Novgorod region compared with HIV-infected patients without drug allergies.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is one of the most urgent problems of the modern medical community. Despite the introduction of constantly updated schemes of early diagnosis and treatment into practical medicine, there is still an upward trend in the number of cases, under-examined persons, and prognostically unfavorable outcomes. The review highlights the findings of epidemiological studies confirming the widespread prevalence of the disease, accompanied by rapid disability progression, high mortality, and significant economic damage. The review lists the main exogenous and endogenous risk factors for the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, including occupational etiology. Attention is drawn to the possibility of disease prevention in a professional environment with the proper motivation of the patient and the application of economic efforts. The article discusses the main causes of underdiagnosis and late diagnosis of the disease. Lifestyle modification makes an undeniable contribution to the prevention of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and improving prognosis in the developed disease. Certain psychological characteristics that reduce adherence to treatment of such patients should be considered in organizing the management of this category of persons and creating special schools. It is important to create a classification of endotypes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as well as sufficient public awareness about this disease with the aim of the earliest possible diagnosis.
