CITY IDENTITY IN THE STRUCTURE OF THE URBAN IDENTITY OF IZHEVSK RESIDENTS
Authors: Polishchuk M.A.
Published: March 2023

The article discusses the issue of correlation between urban identity and Izhevsk identity as the capital of Russia’s region. The discussion is underpinned by the notion of urban identity which is understood as self-identification of an individual against city residents; city identity is understood as an image of city territory, city communities and urban society. The analysis of correlation between urban identity and city identity shows that identity of the city is cognitive component of urban identity, alongside with its affective and praxeological component. The aim of the research was to identify the issue of Izhevsk identity as a component of urban identity of Izhevsk residents. Based on the results of empirical research, which was carried out through surveys, semi-structured interviews, focus groups, it was stated that the identity of Izhevsk is of controversial character, and can be seen from binary positions: “capital-region”, “uniqueness-typicality”, “innovation-tradition”, “social stability-social instability”, “initiative-passive”. The hypothesis that the identity of Izhevsk as a cognitive component of urban identity is controversial and ambivalent has been proved. It is underpinned by the opinion of respondents who found the city identity problematic and motivates to develop urban identity via activating its praxeological component.
RUSSIAN-IRANIAN RELATIONS AT THE PRESENT STAGE: PROSPECTS AND POTENTIAL RISKS
Authors: Beznosova M.I. , Likhachev K.A.
Published: March 2023

Since the beginning of 2022, relations between the Russian Federation and the Islamic Republic of Iran have intensified, directly affecting all areas of cooperation between the two countries. In addition to the general positive trend starting in 2012, the Ukrainian crisis and the subsequent sanctions imposed on the Russian Federation by the European Union, the United States and others, which have significantly limited the political circle of Russia's engagement, have become the main drivers of the development of mutual relations between Russia and Iran. On the one hand, improving relations with Iran relatively mitigates the impact of the sanctions measures, however, on the other hand, it deprives Russia of diplomatic flexibility, which could have an extremely negative impact on relations with potential allies in the Middle East and the rest of the world.

Historical prerequisites for the development of other measures of a criminal law nature aimed at restricting the rights of persons committed crimes against the interests of the Russian Federation
Authors: Pirozhnikov Alexander
Published: March 2023

The relevance of the topic is due to the need for a retrospective analysis of individual measures of state enforcement in order to understand their criminal legal nature. The history of the development of other measures of a criminal law nature in relation to individual groups of crimes is practically not considered in the criminal law literature. Encroachments on the interests of the state the punishment for which has traditionally been one of the most severe among socially dangerous acts prohibited by criminal law are no excluded. Nevertheless, the analysis of historical sources shows that the limits of coercion in this area have changed over time significantly. The changes that took place were related to the policy of the state, namely the humanization of punishment - the mitigation of the means of influence used against persons guilty of committing crimes against the interests of the state. Today, this trend generally continues. Along with the rigidity of the approach, the authorities allow a compromise, reasonably believing that a different impact or border measures can ensure the effectiveness of prevention.

Traditional methods were used in the study organizing - generalization, analysis, analogy.

Results. The development of the criminal law science, as well as the humanism ideas dominance, the human resources economy, led to the implementation of a fundamentally different approach in the entire field of criminal law regulation. We believe that the further development of this area will allow us to determine new prospects for countering the crimes of the group under study.
International experience in the prevention of recidivism by law enforcement agencies
Authors: Smirnov Leonid
Published: March 2023

Recidivism is a criminal pathology in any country. Its increased public danger consists in formation of professional crime - vanguard of criminality. Within recidivism crime maintains and spreads criminal traditions, develops and reproduces criminal subculture. The impact of criminal recidivism is devastating for vulnerable segments of the population. As a result of its negative impact, criminality is rejuvenated and feminized. The relevance of the presented work lies in the analysis of positive experience of the international community in fighting criminal recidivism. Russian law enforcement and legislation are in dire need of effective anti-recidivism practices. The relevant law enforcement experience in the USA and Israel, as well as European (Azerbaijan, Belarus, Great Britain, Poland) and Asian (China, South Korea, Japan) countries is considered. National mechanisms of resocialization of ex-prisoners, features of probation activities and specifics of post-penitentiary care in foreign countries are described. The forms of international cooperation on counter-recidivism between Russia and foreign countries are reflected. Particular attention is paid to conventional and institutional legal forms.

Legislative and law enforcement measures are proposed to introduce foreign experience in the field of anti-recidivism prevention into law enforcement activities in Russia.
Social-psychological approach to the adaptation of persons under probation: a review of foreign experience
Authors: Zlokazov Kirill
Published: March 2023

Introduction. The research focuses on improving adaptation measures for offenders under probation. The relevance of the study is determined by the high rates of re-offending of supervised persons caused by the lack of a stable source of income, low level of education, absence of profession or necessary qualification, cessation (breakdown) of relationships, alcohol or drug addictions.

The problem consists in the fact that individual preventive work with supervised persons needs to be improved and that there is a lack of a systemic understanding of how it should be organized. One of the stages of solving the problem is the examination of foreign experience of social adaptation of supervised persons and conceptualization of its theoretical foundations, definition of the subject area, characteristics and parameters.

Research methods: theoretical methods of cognition: generalization, categorization and systematization of information on approaches, theories and concepts on the adaptation of administratively supervised persons.

Results. The author reasons that foreign adaptation programs are based on sociological (structural functional and interactionist) theories and a group of socio-psychological ideas and concepts. Analysis of the programs also reveals the influence of national and cultural specificity on the organization of work with supervised persons. The main directions of adaptation are: (1) restoration of social functioning of this category of persons, carried out by means of legal, social and psychological support, (2) reintegration in the form of controlled involvement into the social relationships existed before the criminal punishment; (3)

social and psychological adaptation aimed at countering criminalization, resocialization and rehabilitation.

Conclusions. The value of social environment in social adaptation of supervised persons is identified. This environment can offer material and social resources that the subject lacks, be a source of expert information, education and psychological support. The author substantiates the need to verify the findings by further operationalizing the characteristics of the social environment in order to objectively assess its ability to implement the adaptation of persons subjected to administrative supervision.

Odwrócenie paradygmatu kultury europejskiej, czyli koniec cywilizacji chrześcijańskiej
Authors: Gielarowski Andrzej
Published: March 2023

Chantal Delsol, francuska emerytowana profesorka filozofii politycznej uniwersytetów paryskich i pisarka, jest dobrze znana polskiemu czytelnikowi z kilku opublikowanych po polsku prac naukowych. Dotąd na nasz język nie przetłumaczono jednak jednej z najnowszych prac Delsol: La fin de la Chrétienté. L’inversion normative et le nouvel âge (2021), co można przełożyć jako: Koniec Christianitas. Odwrócenie normatywne i nowy wiek. Tłumaczenie takie jest uzasadnione przez treść książki, gdyż autorka pisze o końcu cywilizacji chrześcijańskiej, a nie o końcu chrześcijaństwa jako takiego. Warto wczytać się w książkę Delsol, aby zapoznać się z oryginalną, choć dla chrześcijaństwa niepocieszającą diagnozą momentu cywilizacyjnego, w którym się znajdujemy a który wiąże się ze zmianą paradygmatu kulturowego dotąd obowiązującego w obszarze europejskim (euroatlantyckim).

Ochrona i promocja dziedzictwa kulturowego na przykładzie pieców chlebowych (piekarnioków)
Authors: Świtała-Trybek Dorota
Published: March 2023

Piece chlebowe, wolno stojące, od XIX w. stanowiły charakterystyczny element zabudowy osiedli i kolonii robotniczych na Górnym Śląsku powstałych w związku z intensywnym rozwojem przemysłu. Piece te nazywane piekarniokami, piekarokami służyły przede wszystkim mieszkańcom do wypieku chleba i kołaczy drożdżowych. W okresie powojennym (od lat 50.) w związku z przemianami cywilizacyjnymi – pozbawione opieki i ochrony – zaczęły znikać ze śląskiego krajobrazu. Współcześnie tego typu przykładów architektury dziedzictwa poprzemysłowego pozostało niewiele. Dwa takie obiekty, pochodzące z początku XX stulecia, znajdują się w Rudzie Śląskiej. W latach dwutysięcznych przeszły gruntowną renowację. Jednemu przywrócono pierwotną funkcję, dziś jest ważnym obiektem promowania i upowszechniania śląskiego dziedzictwa materialnego i niematerialnego, atrakcją turystyczną, miejscem organizacji rozmaitych miejskich przedsięwzięć kulturalnych. Drugi obiekt został natomiast przemianowany na kapliczkę.
O rzekomym drugim małżeństwie Mikołaja Zebrzydowskiego
Authors: Wołyniec Bartłomiej M.
Published: March 2023

Genealogia jako dziedzina wiedzy badająca więzy rodzinne, zarówno te wynikające z filiacji, jak i te stanowiące konsekwencje małżeństwa, jest tą z nauk pomocniczych historii, która pozwala m.in. spojrzeć na portretowaną w biografii osobę z perspektywy relacji z poszczególnymi członkami rodziny, jak i miejsca, które dana osoba w kręgu rodzinnym zajmowała. Nie inaczej jest w przypadku wojewody krakowskiego Mikołaja Zebrzydowskiego (1553–1620), którego postać od pewnego już czasu wzbudza coraz większe zainteresowanie badaczy. Jedni skupiają się na jego działalności politycznej, w tym przede wszystkim na wywołanym przez magnata rokoszu, drudzy tematem swoich prac uczynili religijność wojewody i bezpośrednio z nią związaną działalność fundacyjną, inni zaś skupili się na kwestiach o charakterze genealogicznym, w tym na pokazaniu Zebrzydowskiego w kręgu jego rodzinny, zarówno tej najbliższej, jak też dalszej. W ostatni w wyżej wymienionych nurtów wpisuje się niniejszy artykuł, który stanowi odpowiedź na pojawiające się w literaturze nieścisłości dotyczące związków małżeńskich Mikołaja Zebrzydowskiego. W opublikowanych ostatnio pracach pojawiła się bowiem informacja o dwóch małżeństwach wojewody krakowskiego, z których pierwsze miał zawrzeć z nieznaną z imienia kobietą, drugie zaś z Dorotą z Herburtów, która zmarła w 1610 r. Stanowi to konsekwencję niepoprawnie przetłumaczonego, a następnie źle zinterpretowanego wpisu z Metryki Koronnej, o czym też szerzej traktuje niniejszy artykuł. Zawarte we wpisie sformułowanie ad secundas nuptias odnosi się bowiem do mogącego zaistnieć w przyszłości hipotetycznego związku małżeńskiego, który łączyłby wdowę po Mikołaju Zebrzydowskim – Dorotę z Herburtów, z innym mężczyzną. Tym samym wpis w Metryce Koronnej nie odnosi się do związków małżeńskich wojewody, a co za tym idzie nie mówi nic o jego rzekomych dwóch małżeństwach.
Mikołaj Zebrzydowski i Piotr Skarga SI – historia wzajemnych relacji
Authors: Bruździński Ks. Andrzej
Published: March 2023

W artykule omówiono kontakty dwóch znaczących osobistości w Polsce przełomu XVI i XVII wieku – wojewody Mikołaja Zebrzydowskiego i jezuity ks. Piotra Skargi. Pierwsze ich spotkanie nastąpiło, gdy Zebrzydowski rozpoczynał swoją publiczną działalność, a ksiądz Skarga był już doświadczonym kapłanem i jezuitą. Zebrzydowski nosił się wówczas z zamiarem fundacji kolegium jezuickiego w rodowych dobrach w pobliżu Lublina. Kolejna znacząca współpraca związana była z powołanym do istnienia w Krakowie przez ks. Skargę Bractwem Miłosierdzia. Ksiądz Skarga bardzo pozytywnie oceniał postawę i zaangażowanie Zebrzydowskiego w obydwa dzieła. Sytuacja uległa dość znaczącej zmianie, gdy Zebrzydowski, obrażony na Króla Zygmunta III Wazę, przeszedł do opozycji antykrólewskiej i stanął na czele rokoszu. Ksiądz Skarga dwukrotnie udał się do wojewody, aby odwieść go od tego nielegalnego działania. Poselstwa nie przyniosły pozytywnego rezultatu. Wzajemnie relacje obu osobistości uległy oziębieniu, choć można przypuszczać, że Zebrzydowski pod ich wpływem w końcu pogodził się z królem. Pewne relacje z jezuitami dalej podtrzymywał, ale już bez poprzedniego zaangażowania.

Analysis of the usability and accessibility of public transport online timetables in selected cities in Poland
Authors: Wójtowicz Piotr , Dzieńkowski Mariusz
Published: March 2023

The purpose of the study was to verify various aspects related to the accessibility and usability of the timetable websites of two companies providing public transportation services. The issues addressed mainly concerned the graphic form of accessibility tools, the way of accessing these tools, their location in the site, the use of alternative names and descriptions. The objects of the research were two existing websites of two people transportation companies. In addition, two prototype sites were made for the purposes of the research. An experiment was prepared and conducted with 13 participants. A research method using the eye tracking technique was applied. The results were obtained in the form of heat maps, scan paths, task completion times, task performance ratings and the number of fixations on the object of interest. After analyzing the collected results, the following conclusions were drawn: the use of similar graphic symbols often confuses users; indirect access to accessibility tools generally makes it difficult for users to use them; the ill-conceived design of some page elements creates problems for content viewers; experimenting with the placement of some tools causes difficulty in finding them; a great deal of confusion on websites is introduced by unusual names, links, menu options; a large amount of content and the lack of prominence of what is most important cause problems in finding the right information; the lack of captioning of graphics often causes users to have to think longer and check if what they want to use is the right option; placing an item/information at the bottom of the page generally extends the time to reach it.
Performance analysis of working with databases with Spring and Symfony
Authors: Wieleba Ewa , Wieleba Bartłomiej
Published: March 2023

The article presents a comparative analysis of the efficiency of work with MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, using the popular Spring (Java) and Symfony programming frameworks. The research was carried out with the use of proprietary test applications that perform CRUD operations on a different number of records. The test results showed that the execution time of writing and deleting data using the Spring application is longer than when performing the same operations in Symfony. On the other hand, in the case of UPDATE and SELECT operations, the operation execution time with the Spring application turned out to be shorter than in the case of Symfony. The test results also confirmed that, regardless of the development framework, MySQL is less efficient than PostgreSQL while operating on 10 000 records except for DELETE, where MySQL combined with Symfony is the fastest.
Comparative analysis of code execution time by C and Python based on selected algorithms
Authors: Rysak Paweł
Published: March 2023

The article deals with a comparative analysis of the speed of code execution written in the C language and Python. In order to determine whether a scripting language can match the performance of a compiled language, a comparison of the languages was made using the following algorithms: the algorithm for solving the Hanoi tower problem, the Huffman encoding algorithm and the algorithm for converting numbers into text. Each of the listed algorithms was implemented in both languages. Then the execution time of the programs was measured and the results were obtained, which prove that the C language achieves better performance in most cases.

Authors: Mohammed Bahjat Ahmed
Published: March 2023

Background:: Reports of open-Cholecystectomy (OC) or laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (LC) under general anesthesia (GA) in the surgical treatment of gallbladder disease are common, but those performed under local anesthesia (LA) are much more limited, especially for old aged patients unfit for GA.
Objectives: This study try to show that Mini-Cholecystectomy (MC) under LA for symptomatic gallstone disease is safe and effective in old aged patients, unfit for GA. This study tried to determine the safety and success of Mini-Cholecystectomy under local anesthesia for symptomatic gallstone disease in old aged patients unfit for GA.
Methodology: ninety patients with gallstone disease scheduled for Mini-Cholecystectomy under local anesthesia were included in this prospective study in Erbil teaching hospital and sardam private hospital. Seventy-three patients were female, with a median age of 70 years (range, 50-90). All of the patients had evidence of acute cholecystitis. Mini-Cholecystectomy MC was performed by a standardized technique and under the combination of local anesthesia (1% zylocain without adrenaline) and intravenous administrations of fentanyl (0.001-0.002 mg/kg) and midazolam (0.05-0.1 mg/kg). Statistical analyses were performed using Microsoft Word Excel 2007.
Results: The median operative time was 45 minutes (range, 35-70). Local anesthesia was converted to general anaesthesia in seven patients owing to the severe discomfort caused by lysis of dense adhesions around the gallbladder, giving a success rate of 95.5%. Cholecystectomy was done successfully in 65(72.22%) patients, while cholecystostomy was performed in the remaining 25 (27.77%) patients because of the severe adhesions that rendered Cholecystectomy very difficult. The median hospital stay was 2.6 days (range, 2-7).
Conclusions: Mini-Cholecystectomy (MC) under Local anesthesia (LA) is an effective surgical procedure for old aged patients with acute calculus cholecystitis who are unfit for GA.
Recommendation: It is recommended to study a larger sample for long period to evaluate the late complications of the operation.
TESTING A NOVEL HYBRID SPIRAL MICROPHONE ARRAY DESIGNED FOR PERFORMANCE AND PORTA
Authors: Aldeman Matthew R. , Jo Jin Ho
Published: March 2023

In this investigation a novel hybrid spiral microphone array system is designed and constructed to maximize the overall performance of the array under the constraint that the array must be portable and capable of being transported in a small hatchback vehicle. Several microphone array designs are considered before settling on a modified Fermat spiral with microphones located exclusively on the axes of the array, enabling the array to be quickly disassembled into a small number of sections, transported to a remote location, and then re-assembled. The performance of the new microphone array is tested against an existing microphone array that was also designed for portability but with a more conventional logarithmic spiral design. The resolution of the new hybrid spiral array is found to greatly exceed the resolution of the conventional portable microphone array.

Monthly All Share Index data from 1985M01-2021M12 was sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria and the Central Securities Clearing System of the Nigerian Stock Exchange; to analyze multiple bubble periods. The supremum Augmented Dickey Fuller (SADF) and Generalized supremum Augmented Dickey Fuller (GSADF) quantitative model with 1000 repetitions along with a window size of 42 was selected to carry out the Monte Carlo simulation at the 95% confidence level. From the Backward SADF estimation, three periods of explosive pricing and collapses were detected. The study therefore recommends that market regulators should promote market information and support regular training of market participants to stem speculations and reduce arbitrage. Overall, well-informed risk management practices should be established to guard against market losses.

Akses intravena perifer merupakan salah satu prosedur infasif yang dilakukan pada anak untuk pemberian obat selama anak dirawat di rumah sakit. Akses intravena perifer pada anak dapat dilakukan dengan cara peripheral intravenous lock (PIV Lock). Berbagai komplikasi dapat terjadi pada PIV lock yang menyebabkan hilangnya kepatenan akses intravena perifer yang pada akhirnya anak dapat mengalami trauma fisik maupun psikologis. Salah satu intervensi yang dapat dilakukan adalah prosedur flushing/pembilasan. Tujuan dari penulisan tinjauan literatur ini yaitu untuk mengidentifikasi efektifitas flushing PIV lock dalam mempertahan kepatenan akses intravena. Metode yang digunakan dalam penulisan tinjauan literatur adalah penelusuran internet dari database Google Scholar, PubMed, Proquest, Medscape, dan EBSCO dengan menggunakan kata kunci intravena perifer, intravenous flushing, peripheral intravenous lock. Kriteria inklusi yaitu tahun publikasi antara 2009-2019 dalam bahasa Indonesia dan bahasa Inggris, desain penelitian RCTs, quasi experiment dan qualitative prospective study. Didapatkan sebanyak 10 artikel dan yang terpilih sebanyak 6 artikel yang sesuai kriteria inklusi. Prosedur flushing PIV lock dapat menggunakan Nacl 0,9% dan heparin salin. Pemberian flushing pada PIV lock efektif mempertahankan kepatenan akses intravena. Dengan demikian flushing PIV lock dapat mengurangi trauma fisik maupun psikologis dan meningkat kualitas asuhan keperawatan pada anak.

Nyeri neuropatik merupakan suatu kondisi yang diakibatkan lesi atau penyakit pada sistem somatosensori. Kondisi ini berdampak pada kondisi kesehatan secara umum pada manusia. Akan tetapi sampai saat ini kajian sistematik mengenai beban global nyeri neuropatik masih belum tersedia. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk melakukan kajian beban global yang diakibatkan nyeri neuropatik yang meliputi penyebab, prevalensi, pengaruh jenis kelamin, biaya, serta dampak terhadap kualitas hidup secara global. Kami melakukan kajian sistematik berdasarkan pada panduan Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). PubMed dan Cochrane merupakan Jurnal Kesehatan Bakti Tunas Husada : Jurnal Ilmu Ilmu Keperawatan, Analis Kesehatan dan Farmasi Volume 22 Nomor 1 Februari 2022 59 database yang digunakan dalam pencarian artikel. Berdasarkan hasil pencarian data melalui database PubMed dan Cochrane diperoleh 60 artikel yang layak untuk masuk terhadap kajian kualitatif. Dari hasil pencarian tersebut tidak ditemukan data beban nyeri neuropatik di Indonesia. Kajian mengenai Herpes Zoster yang dihubungkan dengan nyeri neuropatik (Post Herpetic Neuralgia) memberikan hasil dengan studi terbanyak mengenai nyeri neuropatik. Prevalensi global nyeri neuropatik berkisar 2,6-11%. Prevalensi lebih banyak terjadi pada wanita dibandingkan laki-laki. Selain itu, keadaan ini meningkat berdasarkan usia. Prevalensi nyeri neuropatik secara global pada pasien diabetes, diabetik neuropati, kanker, PHN yang diakibatkan Herpes Zoster, HIV, dan spinal injury yang diakibatkan pembedahan mencapai 10-20%, 40-50%, 16,8%, 4,3-30%, 11%. 26-34,2%. Total biaya yang dihabiskan secara global untuk penatalaksanaan nyeri neuropatik mencapai $600 miliar atau sekitar 8000 triliun rupiah per tahun. Selain itu, nyeri neuropatik ini mengakibatkan penurunan semua komponen kualitas hidup seperti status kesehatan, kesehatan mental (kecemasan, depresi), aktifitas, tidur, dan produktivitas bekerja bila dibandingkan dengan penyakit parah kronik lainnya.
