Memorial Culture of Young People: Monuments of Krasnodar in the Perception of High School Students
Authors:   Kuban State University, Runaev Timofei Aleksandrovich
Published: February 2020

The present study explores the changes of memorial culture from the position of actor-network theory. In the process of interaction between individuals and monuments, there is an establishment of the system of meanings reflecting the representation of historical events of the region. In order to answer the question about the content of the changes in the network of memorial culture, monuments are considered as a social ‘sign’, consisting of ‘signifier’, represented by the material object, and ‘signified’, i.e. meanings and images that people read when they come into contact with the monument. Conducted among high school students, the study showed that the content side of monuments tends to shift from historical discourse to the understanding of memorials as landmarks in urban space. It follows that memorial culture today is being transformed into a topographic network.

Effects of Hostility and Referent Status on Increase Adolescents’ Escapism: a Mediated Moderation Model
Authors: Kolotova Olga Valeryevna
Published: February 2020

The study reviews the problem of adolescents’ escapism, in particular its origin. The theoretical basis involved concepts A.L. Zhuravlev, A.B. Kupreichenko’s self-determination of the person and A.Sh. Huseynov’s protest activity of personality. A dynamic model of adolescents’ escapism has been developed theoretically and empirically. This study used data from 227 adolescents aged 12 to 16 years. Research methods included BDHI (A.H. Buss, A. Durkee; adaptation by A.K. Osnitsky), R.B. Cattell’s 16PF (adaptation by A.G. Shmelev et al.), the referentometry. Data is analyzed by A.F. Hayes’ mediated moderation analysis with Process Macro Version 3.4 based on IBM SPSS Statistics 23.0 software program. Intellectualized hostility is defined as a key factor in mediated moderation model and included a stable component of self-determination “Radicalism” and a dynamic component of self-determination “Hostility” (F(222) = 4.62, p = .03, R2 = .02). The intellectualized hostility predicted adolescents’ escapism (F(3, 222) = 10.9, p = .01, R2 = .16). This relationship was mediated by referent status (XY = .14; BootSE = .08; BootLLCI = .0189; BootULCI = .3174). The specificity of the adolescents’ escapism “double conflict” is characterized. Current future directions are considered and practical recommendations are given.

Authors:   Tyumen State University, Savkina Natalia Gennadyevna
Published: February 2020

The paper discusses the problem of rising the interest in the Russian language as a school subject for younger students. It is argued that the novelty of the content of the subject, which usually favors the awakening and maintaining the interest of students in it, is less pronounced in Russian language than in other disciplines since schoolchildren already successfully use the Russian language in everyday life. The results of the study are presented, which show an increase in the number of students with a high and medium level of interest in the Russian language in the experimental group, in the educational process of which the training exercises developed by the author were used. The results of studying the attractiveness of certain exercises are of particular interest. So, for primary school students, the structure of the text of the assignment, its content and volume are important, they give preference to exercises in the form of a coherent text. Work with individual sentences, separate words and phrases is of interest only under certain conditions. The novelty of the study lies in the author’s development of a system of training exercises that contain elements of search work and problems, the implementation of which requires reliance on linguistic instinct, a large share of independence, the intense mental activity of students, as well as the use of information and communication technologies.

Authors:   Far Eastern Federal University, Vinokurova Anna Viktorovna , Ardalyanova Anna Yuryevna ,   Far Eastern Federal University
Published: February 2020

Modern social and demographic and social and economic processes are characterized by the dynamic development of the neighboring countries of North-East Asia. At the same time, the territories of the Russian-Chinese border, being a zone of contact in spatial integration, have a number of specific features. For Primorye, Khabarovsk Territory, Amur Oblast, Transbaikalia, as well as for other Far Eastern regions, some of not entirely favorable social trends are currently significant, associated with the deterioration of various aspects of people’s daily lives, including the poor state of social infrastructure, the presence of great difficulties in the labor sphere and employment, a decrease in incomes of the population, etc. In this context, the study analyses the attitude of the residents of the Far Eastern border towards migrants and migration problems. The main research method is content analysis of news feeds and their discussion on the Far Eastern Internet portals. In general, the population of the Far East is waiting for actions of not attracting migrants to the region, but ones of contributing to their own security and the creation of favorable living conditions for indigenous Far Easterners. It is important to consider this in the system of determinants that condition the social well-being of residents of these territories.

Published: February 2020

The study presents an analysis of the activity of representatives of the indigenous peoples of the North in the framework of the presence of public associations and non-profit organizations (using the quantitative method) and an assessment of the level of financial support for indigenous peoples’ organizations in the regional competitions of socially oriented projects. The geography of study is the Far East of Russia consisting of nine subjects. A high level of ethnic cohesion, the need to preserve a unique way of life, culture, self-identification among the indigenous peoples, the activity of the indigenous peoples’ representatives in the creation of public organizations are established. The financial support of indigenous non-profit organizations by state authorities in the framework of regional competitions of socially oriented projects in the subjects of the Far East is very differentiated and largely depends on the financial condition of the region, the share of indigenous peoples in the ethnic structure of the population. Nevertheless, the amounts allocated to support non-profit organizations of the indigenous peoples are very insignificant and absolutely do not provide a high level of presence of public associations and non-profit organizations of the indigenous peoples in the Far East.

Authors:   Volgograd Institute of Management, Branch of the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, Smolina Yelena Grigoryevna
Published: February 2020

The paper presents the results of a survey of experts (N = 50) conducted in order to analyze methods, levels of implementation, and evaluation of effectiveness in the field of interaction between executive authorities and the population of Volgograd in the Internet space. The results of the survey show that organizational methods prevail in the framework of management policy and, according to experts, the quantity of control and planning as management functions is insufficient. Out of the four levels of interaction, the city authorities act only at the level of informing and do not move on to more active forms. According to the experts, management policy is evaluated as insufficiently effective due to the lack of a developed and approved action plan, as well as due to the defects in regulation of the process of interaction between city authorities and citizens in the Internet space.

Published: February 2020

Comorbidity is one of the factors determining the course of multiple sclerosis. Cardiovascular pathology is one of the most common in the population as a whole, especially in age groups over 50. Several studies showed that arterial hypotension and dyslipidemia affected the course, progression rate, and neuroimaging characteristics of patients with multiple sclerosis. An important issue is the effect of disease modifying therapy on the course of concomitant diseases in patients with multiple sclerosis and the effect of concomitant diseases on the effectiveness and safety of disease modifying therapy. The question of the use of statins in multiple sclerosis remains controversial. This review presents data on vascular comorbidity in multiple sclerosis, including the prevalence of risk factors for cardiovascular pathology and concomitant vascular diseases in the population of patients with multiple sclerosis. Data on the effect of cardiovascular pathology on the course and treatment of multiple sclerosis were also analyzed.

Published: February 2020

The objective was to determine the possibilities of using desmopressin and conjugated estrogens during primary hip joint arthroplasty in patients receiving renal replacement therapy.

Methods and materials. The material for the study was data on 53 patients with pathology of the hip joint, who underwent primary arthroplasty from 2016 to 2018. All patients were divided into 2 groups. Group 1 (n=23) – patients not suffering from kidney diseases. Group 2 (n=30) – patients receiving renal replacement therapy. Each group was divided into 2 subgroups: 1 subgroup – comparisons, where the combination of desmopressin/conjugated estrogens was not used. 2 subgroup – control, where desmopressin was used at a dosage of 0.4 mg/kg 2 hours before the incision, conjugated estrogens was used at a dosage of 0.6 mg / kg of body weight within 5 days before the operation.

Results. In group 1 (patients not suffering from kidney disease), there was no statistically significant difference between the subgroups. In group 2 (patients receiving hemodialysis), there was a statistically significant difference in the volume of blood loss. Thus, in the subgroup without using additional techniques, the volume of intraoperative blood loss was 769.5±389.3 ml; in the second subgroup (using desmopressin and estrogens) – 479.1±245.2 ml. The difference was statistically significant, p<0.05. The efficiency was 27.9 %.

Conclusion. The additional use of conjugated estrogens at a dose of 0.6 mg/kg of body weight within 5 days before the operation, desmopressin at a dose of 0.4 mg/kg of body weight 2 hours before the incision reduced blood loss by 27.9 %. The use of combination of conjugated estrogens and desmopressin in patients not suffering from kidney disease did not affect the amount of blood loss.

Evaluation of the effectiveness of lipid-lowering agents
Authors: Shevko V. G. , Galas M. A. , Galankin T. L. , Kolbin A. S.
Published: February 2020

Introduction.Nowadays, lipid-lowering therapy is considered an essential strategy for primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular outcomes, which is confirmed by numerous studies. Nevertheless, researches are often guided by analysis of surrogate endpoints, which becomes not just everyday practice, but also an actual problem. Surrogate endpoints are wellknown sources of bias that can distort the risk-benefit analysis.

Theobjectiveof the study was to assess the significance of lipid-lowering therapy with statins in relation to mortality.

Methods and materials.The analysis of prospective controlled trials was carried out with a sample of 2000 patients and more, in which mortality rate was assessed for 2 or more years of statin therapy, as well as systematic literature reviews with a meta-analysis of mortality rates. The search was carried out on websites of the Russian scientific electronic libraries eLibrary and сyberleninka , English-language works – on the PubMed website.

Results.An increase in survival during treatment with statins in case of secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases reached about 2 % after five years’ treatment and was absent after ten years’ treatment. The average increase in life expectancy was only 4.1 days. Primary prevention with statins has not been shown to increase survival significantly.

Conclusion.Effectiveness of lipid-lowering therapy with statins as a part of secondary prevention of cardiovascular outcomes assessed by surrogate endpoints could be greatly exaggerated. A biased approach to selecting surrogate endpoints can lead to incorrect results. Similarly, the encouraging results of therapy with statins in the prevention of cardiovascular mortality may be biased when the effect of statins on other causes of death is not considered. Mortality refers to a universal endpoint that characterizes both the effectiveness and safety of a drug.
Bernard Berenson, Lionello Venturi e a crítica de arte italiana
Authors: Marinho Fernanda
Published: February 2020

A formação da crítica de arte italiana dá-se ao longo do complicado período do entre guerras, marcado pelas dificuldades socioculturais geradas pela política fascista. Dois protagonistas desse cenário foram Bernard Berenson, americano que fixa endereço na famosa Villa I Tatti e se dedica devotamente ao Renascimento italiano, e Lionello Venturi, que introduz o método da crítica de arte por meio de uma perspectiva anticlássica que muito incomodava a ortodoxia acadêmica. O epistolário Berenson-Venturi apresenta mais de 100 cartas trocadas entre eles ao longo de 50 anos. Este artigo apresenta uma breve análise dos assuntos contemplados no epistolário e principalmente da relação entre seus protagonistas. Aproximados pelo comum interesse pela arte veneziana, Berenson e Venturi encontrarão um no outro não apenas a amizade, mas também um apoio intelectual fundamental àquele que nunca deixou de se sentir estrangeiro na Itália e também ao próprio italiano, que sempre precisou enfrentar os conterrâneos para promover seus ideais de modernidade. O epistolário nos fornece uma interessante fonte aos estudos sobre as relações entre a estética renascentista e aquela moderna no cenário de formação da crítica de arte italiana.

У світлі інституціональних змін національної економіки розвиток людського капіталу зумовлений інституціональною структурою суспільного складу та певним чином обмежується його рамками. Визначення інституціональної структури людського капіталу становить актуальну проблему національної економіки, оскільки саме людський капітал є потенціальною складовою ефективного розвитку України. Метою дослідження стало визначення, обґрунтування та формування інституціональної структури людського капіталу, розробка науково-методичних положень і практичних рекомендацій щодо її функціонування в межах національної економіки України. Побудовано інституціональну структуру людського капіталу. У структурі виділено рівні її функціонування. На відміну від наявних поглядів, запропонована інституціональна структура людського капіталу ґрунтується на інститутах, що зумовлюють її працездатність, а в практичному сенсі визначають шляхи втілення. Конкретні дії
реалізуються через інституції.

РОЛЬ ЕЛЕКТРОННОЇ КОМЕРЦІЇ В РОЗВИТКУ ІНФОРМАЦІЙНОЇ ЕКОНОМІКИ
Authors: Pylevych Dmytro
Published: February 2020

У статті розглянуто теоретичні положення ролі електронної комерції в розвитку інформаційної економіки.
Зокрема, досліджено сутність таких категорій, як «електронна комерція» та «інформаційна економіка». Результати проведеного дослідження дали змогу встановити окремі варіанти пізнання особливостей взаємодії електронної комерції та інформаційної економіки. Зокрема, було виділено такі з них: розгляд електронної комерції як частини системи інформаційної економіки та розгляд електронної комерції як окремої системи. У статті описано сутність зазначених концепцій. Також визначено основні переваги та недоліки функціонування електронної комерції для споживачів та виробників, що дозволило обґрунтувати наявність як позитивних, так і негативних впливів електронної комерції на розбудову інформаційної економіки.
The Role of Organized Religion in Reproductive Behavior of the Population in Modern Russia: Empirical Estimates by the Regions
Authors: Khrzhanovskaya A. A.
Published: February 2020

The article raises the issues on the abuse of the right to perform abortions, which has always been relevant for the modern society. The article gives the historical outline of the Russian demographic policy for legalizing (and/or sponsoring) abortion and analyzes possible positive/negative socio-economic consequences thereof. The work presents a brief overview of the formation of modern cultural and religious ethos of the contemporary Russia, which inter alia is supposed to influence the indicator under study. The article puts forward a hypothesis which is tested on religious composition data of the Russian population and on the quantitative level of abortions by the regions for 2 periods. On the basis of regression analysis, it can be concluded that today there is an existing link between the share of atheists in the modern society and the quantitative abortion rate in the Russian Federation.

Economic Dynamics under Heterogeneous Adaptive Learning: General Criteria and Sufficient Conditions for Stability
Authors: Bogomolova A. S. , Kolyuzhnov D. V.
Published: February 2020

The article extends the results of Honkapohja and Mitra (2006) and Kolyuzhnov (2011) and provides criteria and sufficient conditions for stability in a structurally heterogeneous economy under heterogeneous adaptive learning of agents. The criteria for stability under heterogeneous mixed RLS/SG learning for four classes of models – without lags and with lags of the endogenous variable and with t or t – 1 – dating of expectations – and sufficient conditions for stability for the cases of the diagonal structure of the shock process behavior or the heterogeneous RLS learning are presented in terms of the corresponding Jacobian matrices. In addition, the study presents a very useful criterion for the stability for all types of models under mixed RLS/SG learning with equal degrees of inertia for each type of learning algorithm in terms of stability of a suitably defined average economy with two agents. The derived criteria and sufficient conditions for stability are based on the results of the theory of stochastic approximation and are presented in terms of mixture of structural and learning heterogeneity, which are essential to get sufficient and necessary conditions for stability irrespective of heterogeneity in learning presented in terms of E-stability of suitably defined aggregate economies, the “same sign” conditions and the E-stability of a suitably defined average economy and its subeconomies. The fundamental nature of the approach adopted in the paper makes it possible to apply the results to a vast majority of the existing and prospective linear and linearized economic models (including estimated DSGE models) with adaptive learning of agents.

De acordo com o Estatuto da Cidade a revisão do Plano Diretor é obrigatória a cada dez anos. A pesquisa desenvolvida faz uma análise da execução do Plano Diretor do município de Campos dos Goytacazes, RJ que completou dez anos de vigência em 2018. O objetivo é avaliar a execução deste plano, especialmente nos aspectos de sistema viário, uso e ocupação do solo e áreas verdes, de modo a fornecer informações para o planejamento urbano. Em relação à metodologia foram realizados os seguintes processos: coleta de dados bibliográficos e documentais (mapas, leis, imagens de satélite); revisão bibliográfica; análise da legislação; verificação da implantação das diretrizes; indicação das principais diretrizes implantadas, não implantadas e modificações no planejamento urbanístico. Entre os resultados alcançados, verificou-se que grande parte das áreas de preservação ambiental não estão cumprindo plenamente sua função social por terem seus entornos ocupados por construções. Espera-se com esta pesquisa disponibilizar dados e reflexões que contribuam com a gestão pública e privada na prevenção, mitigação e solução de problemas urbanos e ambientais. A execução do plano diretor de Campos dos Goytacazes reflete as preferências de interesses públicos e privados no período analisado. Além dos aspectos quantitativos e qualitativos do plano diretor, destaca-se a importância dos processos de gestão urbana, como a fiscalização e controle do uso e ocupação do solo para o ordenamento da cidade.

Objective:

Physicians who often request for computed tomography (CT) scan examinations are expected to have sound knowledge of radiation exposure (risks) to patients in line with the basic radiation protection principles according to the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), the Protection of Persons Undergoing Medical Exposure or Treatment (POPUMET), and the Ionizing Radiation (Medical Exposure) Regulations (IR(ME)R). The aim is to assess the level of requesting physicians’ knowledge of ionizing radiation from CT scan examinations in two Nigerian tertiary hospitals.

Materials and Methods:

An 18-item-based questionnaire was distributed to 141 practicing medical doctors, excluding radiologists with work experience from 0 to >16 years in two major teaching hospitals in Nigeria with a return rate of 69%, using a voluntary sampling technique.

Results:

The results showed that 25% of the respondents identified CT thorax, abdomen, and pelvis examination as having the highest radiation risk, while 22% said that it was a conventional chest X-ray. Furthermore, 14% concluded that CT head had the highest risk while 9% gave their answer to be conventional abdominal X-ray. In addition, 17% inferred that magnetic resonance imaging had the highest radiation risk while 11% had no idea. Furthermore, 25.5% of the respondents have had training on ionizing radiation from CT scan examinations while 74.5% had no training. Majority (90%) of the respondents were not aware of the ICRP guidelines for requesting investigations with very little (<3%) or no knowledge (0%) on the POPUMET and the IR(ME)R respectively.

Conclusion:

There is low level of knowledge of ionizing radiation from CT scan examinations among requesting physicians in the study locations.
