Authors: Даудов А.З. , Цуцулаева С.С.
Published: June 2021

В статье на широком документальном материале освещается несостоявшаяся боевая операция немцев по овладению Кавказом. Господство над Кавказом давало бы гитлеровцам ощутимые преимущества, фактически исход войны явно был бы в пользу немцев. Автор раскрывает замыслы немецкого командования, показывает, как для достижения этой глобальной цели немецкое командование вербовало в свои ряды эмигрантов из России, когда-то не принявших Советы. Однако, автор делает вывод, что этим планам не суждено было сбыться не только благодаря мужеству советских солдат, но и благодаря высокой сплоченности горцев перед общим врагом.

Authors: Popov Dmitry Vladimirovich
Published: June 2021

The article deals with the problem of the relationship and interaction of language and culture. Language and culture are inextricably linked, and the concept is the connecting link between them. Currently, the concept turns out to be one of the key concepts of modern linguistics, since it allows each person to enter the culture of his society and, to a certain extent, influence it. Language acts as a mechanism, without the help of which culture would not find its expression.
KEYWORDS: language of the people, culture, language and culture, concept, cultural linguistics, intercultural communication.

Published: June 2021

Aterosklerosis digambarkan sebagai reaksi inflamasi kronis dari dinding pembuluh darah sebagai respons terhadap dislipidemia bersama dengan gangguan endotel termasuk penarikan leukosit dengan aktivasi sel vaskular lokal. Gangguan endotel merangsang produksi sitokin proinflamasi dimediasi oleh NF-κΒ sehingga mendukung terbentuknya plak ateroma. Flavonol daun kelor memiliki aktivitas dalam memperlambat kejadian inflamasi. Flavonol utama pada daun kelor adalah kaempferol. Pengujian aktivitas kaempferol sebagai anti-inflamasi aterosklerosis yang didasarkan interaksi protein NF-ĸB dengan metode molecular docking. Pengujian aktivitas dilaksanakan adalah penyiapan struktur protein NF-ĸB, persiapan protein dengan Chimera1.11.1, optimasi struktur 3D kaempferol dengan HyperChem 8, validasi metode molecular docking dan docking kaempferol pada protein NF-ĸB dengan Autodock tools 1.5.6. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kaempferol memiliki afinitas karena mampu membentuk ikatan hidrogen dengan protein NF-ĸB. Energi ikatan yang terbentuk antara kaempferol dengan protein NF-ĸB sebesar -7,85 kkal/mol yang membentuk ikatan hidrogen pada residu asam amino LEU472 dan SER476. Kaempferol mempunyai aktivitas sebagai anti-aterosklerosis karena memiliki afinitas dengan protein NF-ĸB yang dapat menghambat proses inflamasi terbentuknya plak ateroma.

The aim: The purpose of research is to improve the effectiveness of treatment by applying laser in complex treatment in patients with herpetic stomatitis.
Materials and methods: Were examined 47 people (22 men and 25 women) with acute herpetic stomatitis. The patіents’ age was from 20 to 72 years. All patients underwent immunological tests such as (T-lymphocytes (CD3 +), T-helpers (CD4 +), cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CD8 +), the content of immunoglobulins IgM, IgG, IgA and slgA in saliva to assess the іmmunological reactivity of the organism.
Results: Clinical observations have shown that when using laser therapy, the results of treatment were better than in the control group. Positive dynamics was observed as early as 1-2 days after the start of laser use and was more pronounced when used in the early stages of the disease. The use of the laser promoted a more rapid suspension of new lesions, a decrease in pain syndrome, and a more rapid regression of herpetic lesions. We have found significant improvements in the arameters of cellular and humoral іmmunity in patients of the main group.
Conclusions: Treatment of herpetic stomatitis is relevant and requires further improvement and the search for new methods. The use of a laser in the complex treatment of herpetic stomatitis has a positive effect on the course and іmmunological status of patients with herpetic stomatіtis. The manifestations of the disease healed faster, and the pain syndrome was less severe. Duration between іllness and treatment decreased on 19.7% and 26%. It is advіsable to include the method of treatment using a laser in the complex therapy of herpetic stomatitis.

Sociological method - allows you to study the social structure and its impact on health. Systems analysis as a scientific method of cognition, which makes it possible to establish structural connections between system elements. Medical information system is a type of information system that differs in a set of methodological techniques, techniques and management algorithms designed to collect, store, process and transmit information in health care facilities. An single information system ensures the provision of reliable information in the right amount, in the right place, at the right time for members of the health care system. One of the important factors in the implementation of health care reform is the electronic health care system (E-Health). E-Health consists of two interconnected parts, one of which - the central database - will be controlled by the state. Institutions will have access to it through the second part, which is called privately developed medical information systems. The National Health Service of Ukraine ensures the functioning of the electronic health care system and awebsite containing information on the electronic health care system. Health care informatization today is an integral, perhaps the main, component of any health care reform in today’s world. Creating a single information space has many advantages.

The turbulence characteristic of the modern economy opens up new market "windows", the potential of which can be used by innovatively active agents. The development of the external environment determines the nature, stability, progress and type of trajectory of the functioning of industrial enterprises. When studying the external environment, it is important to study the trends that are emerging not only in the national economy as a whole, but also in its individual subsystems, taking into account the disproportionality of their development characteristic of Russia. The article proposes a quantitative assessment of the characteristics of the dynamics of development of the federal districts of the Russian Federation that are significant in the conditions of an innovative economy, based on an assessment of the rank correlation coefficients and variations of the volume of innovative products, the cost of technological innovation, and the innovative activity of organizations. An assessment of the tightness of the relationship between the cost of technological innovation and the volume of manufactured innovative products in the federal districts of the Russian Federation is carried out. The article identifies federal districts, the external environment of which is favorable for modernization and increasing the efficiency of enterprises, and districts in which the introduction of innovative trajectories in the development strategy of enterprises is difficult.

The problems of cultural and civilizational transition and the anthropological catastrophe, predicted by leading scientists and thinkers, are now becoming much more acute and clear. The events unfolding before our eyes in the socio-cultural, political, economic and even biological life of modern society testify to a deep systemic crisis of modern civilization. In this regard, attempts at analytical comprehension of the crisis state of culture, identifying cause-and-effect relationships that have led to this state, as well as the experience of anti-crisis modeling and searching possible ways to overcome the crisis seem to be in demand and relevant. This work, relying on the culturological approach and using the method of culturological hermeneutics, presents the experience of theoretical fixation of the types of responses to the crisis state of culture common for transition periods, the semantic content of which can be determined in three main ways: 1) inversion mechanisms, where human consciousness tends to transfer ready-made, well-known cultural models to the new cultural ground; 2) mediation mechanisms, implying human acceptance of transforming reality; 3) eristic principle — a situation of semantic pluralism up to the shift of value poles.

Authors:   Russian State Specialized Academy of Arts, Moscow, Russian Federation, Kaidi Wang
Published: June 2021

The article is devoted to the cultural cooperation between the USSR and the People's Republic of China in the field of musical theater. The Treaty of Friendship, Alliance and Mutual Assistance between these two countries, signed in Moscow on February 14, 1950, became a starting point in the development of cultural contacts. The most productive period was from 1949 to early 1960s. An important marker of the development of Soviet-Chinese cultural relations was the tour of theater troupes from both countries to the Soviet Union and the Celestial Empire. The Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Moscow Musical Theater team visited China in 1954, and later the artists of the Shaoxing Opera and the Shanghai Theater of Beijing Musical Drama demonstrated their art in Russian cities. The two countries' directors showed mutual interest in the classical opera art of their counterparts: in Beijing and Tianjin P. I. Tchaikovsky's "Eugene Onegin" and "The Queen of Spades" were performed by Chinese singers, while in Russian cities the traditional Chinese theatre plays "The Spilled Cup" and "The Grey-Haired Girl" were staged by Russian artists.

The article deals with the history of the Russian poet F. N. Glinka's poem "Veiled Traces", which was the basis for the famous folk song "Over the Silver River". The article reveals the content of the text and shows different variants of its "plot". This refers to several Russian collections containing the song "Over the Silver River", including "Ural Folk Songs" by L. Christiansen and "Folk Songs of Krasnoyarsk Region" by K. Skobtsov. Folklore collectors considered this song as an example of Russian lyrical song genre. The author analyzes the arrangement of this song included in A. Chernyavsky's piano book and notes the expressive features of the performance of the song by the famous singer I. M. Skobtsov. The original and adapted versions are compared in terms of style and expressive techniques in the context of Chinese traditions, in order to identify specific and common properties within two different cultures. The roles of the folklore collector Wang Lobin, who recorded the song "Over the Silver River" using elements of Chinese music, and the composer Li Yinghar, who arranged Russian melody adopted in Chinese culture, are highlighted. Musical samples are also presented. Russian music in China is a special "cross-border" phenomenon, and the interest in Russian culture and Russian musical folklore in China is very high. Russian folk songs are loved in China and are very popular.

Live bees and queens are not tested for viral diseases of bees either in the countries of the European Union or in the Russian Federation. In the Russian Federation, viral diseases (sacbrood, acute and chronic paralysis) are quarantined, causing significant damage due to the death of bees in the fall and in the first half of the winter. Based on the data obtained in our study, currently the trade in cellular packages is carried out by sick bees. The death rate of such imported bees in the first year is up to 80%. The article discusses the health of bees purchased by beekeepers in the form of cellular packages from other regions, including from other states, and also provides recommendations for preventing the introduction of certain quarantine diseases of bees with relocated bee colonies. Trade in live bees during cross-border movement should be carried out healthy from quarantine diseases, using in vivo diagnostics in cell-free packages.

Financial and Economic analysis of shipping companies conducted based on main maritime industry segments - Crude Oil, Products, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), Dry bulk commodities and Container cargo. Each of them is represented as one or several companies, which are the leaders in these business sectors.
The revenues of shipping companies specialized in crude oil and product transportation have been increased significantly in 2010-2019 years, which was a result of increasing ship quantities and tonnage as well as income from time-charter. Stability can be seen in the revenues of liquefied natural gas shipping companies. The growth rate of container shipping company income was comparatively low.
Moreover, the share of voyage costs have been increased in bulk commodities transportation in 2010-2019 (From 8% to 25%), decreased operating expenses, amortization of assets, charter and general costs. In the cost structure of liner shipping companies’ transportation and terminal expenses have been increased (From 10% to 26%), while the share of fuel, charter and logistics costs have been decreased.
The high and stable profitability incurred in liquified natural gas transportation field as well as in oil shipping transporation with modern, new and large size oil tankers. The dry bulk and liner shipping companies were characterized with sharp unsteadiness and comperatively low profitability.
The crude oil and product shipping companies had positive financial results in 2014-2016 and 2019 years, in other years they reported loss. The liquified natural gas transportation companies had a stable profit. Within the same period, dry bulk shipping companies were characterized with the lower or even unprofitability. Container shipping companies had unsteady financial results, in particular their net profit was peaking in 2010, 2014 and 2018 years and ended up with loss in 2011 and 2016 years.

Background: The incidence of esophageal cancer is increasing. In this connection, the search for the most effective methods of treating this disease continues. In most patients, esophageal cancer is diagnosed at III– IV stages of the disease. Currently, the standard of treatment for inoperable patients is chemo radiotherapy. Brachytherapy is one of the perspective methods of radiation therapy. Using of brachytherapy in the complex treatment of patients with esophageal cancer makes possible to increase the radiation dose without increasing the risk of complications after treatment.

Methods: The study included 20 patients with inoperable esophageal cancer (most of them with III stages, 60 %). The age of the patients is from 51 to 89 years, ECOG performance status ½ (25 %/75 %), dysphagia score 1/2/3–4 (25 %,50 %, 25 %). All patients were diagnosed with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Most patients were with tumor in the middle third of the esophagus (70 %). The greatest length of the tumor was 10 cm. On the first stage of treatment patients underwent external-beam radiation therapy 46 Gy in 2 Gy fractions with simultaneous chemotherapy. After that, brachytherapy was performed (single dose of 5 Gy, 2 fractions with an interval of 6–7 days, 62,8 Gy (EQD2, α/β = 10 Gy).

Results: Patients received therapy support for cardiovascular and lung diseases and nutritional support before, during and following chemoradiotherapy. There were no patients with hematological toxicity grade 3–4. Esophagitis grade 2 was noted in 40 % of patients, grade 1 in 60 % of patients. Esophagitis resolved on its own 2 weeks after completion of therapy. Complete tumor regression was observed in 10 % of patients, partial regression in 80 % of patients, stabilization of tumor process was observed in 10 % of patients. All patients have a poor QOL due to physical and psychological disorders. The general health situation and physical function after 3 months of treatment was improved compared to the prior to treatment period.

Unraveling the Effects of Task Sequencing on the Syntactic Complexity, Accuracy, Lexical Complexity, and Fluency of L2 Written Production
Authors: Abdi Tabari Mahmoud , Miller Michol
Published: June 2021

Although several studies have explored the effects of task sequencing on second language (L2) production, there is no established set of criteria to sequence tasks for learners in L2 writing classrooms. This study examined the effect of simple ̶ complex task sequencing manipulated along both resource-directing (± number of elements) and resource-dispersing (± planning time) factors on L2 writing compared to individual task performance using Robinson’s (2010) SSARC model of task sequencing. Upper-intermediate L2 learners (N = 90) were randomly divided into two groups: (1) Participants who performed three writing tasks in a simple–complex sequence, and (2) participants who performed either the simple, less complex, or complex task. Findings revealed that simple-complex task sequencing led to increases in syntactic complexity, accuracy, lexical complexity, and fluency, as compared to individual task performance. Results are discussed in light of the SSARC model, and theoretical and pedagogical implications are provided.
Get ‘em While They’re Young: Complex Digitally-Mediated Tasks for EFL Learners in Primary Schools
Authors: Caruso Celestine , Hofmann Judith , Rohde Andreas
Published: June 2021

We suggest that complex tasks can be introduced to learners as early as primary school level with the help of digital media in the form of different apps. As a theoretical basis, we will first outline the principles of teaching English in (German) primary schools. Secondly, we will look at the framework of Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) according to Nunan (2004) and explore how digitally-mediated tasks can be connected to this framework. Then, we will look at complex tasks as outlined by Hallet (2011) and present an example of a complex digital task for young English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners that we developed and tested in a German primary school classroom. It is suggested that TBLT at the primary level is a motivating alternative to playful teaching techniques traditionally championed at the primary level. Moreover, it may be a way of bridging the problematic gap between the primary and secondary levels as tasks can prepare young learners for the challenges they will face at the secondary level.

Is the Pelješac Bridge Construction Going to Affect Tourism Sustainability of the Peninsula?
Authors: Kunst Ivo , Klarić Zoran
Published: June 2021

The whole area of Dubrovnik-Neretva county, situated in the
southeastern part of Croatia, is at the moment, in terms of road accessability,
still not satisfactorily connected with the rest of Croatia. The lack of its
accessability is mostly caused by the fact that Bosnia and Herzegovina's border
line cuts in two the Dubrovnik-Neretva county's (land) territory. As a result,
on the way from southwest to southeast, or from Split to Dubrovnik, one needs
to cross the state border with Bosnia and Herzegowina twice. The construction
of the Peljesac Bridge (together with a set of interconnecting roads) should improve
the present situation significantly, mainly due to the expected redirection of
most of the traffic to the new route accross the Pelješac peninsula. It is fair
to assume that this will additionally 'open' the entire Pelješac peninsula to
the increased tourism related traffic, especially to the demand of one day
visitors and/or weekend guests originating from the nearby regions. Since this
will, most lilkely, create additional pressure on the environment, the aim of
this paper is to investigate the extent to which, if any, the construction of
the Pelješac bridge might affect future market perception, and, thus, the long
term tourism sustainability of the Pelješac peninsula.
The Transformation of Medical Spas into Modern Spa Centers in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Authors: Beganović Admir , Puška Adis , Popović Beganović Allen
Published: June 2021

Globalization and lifestyle changes have led to health becoming a major
social preoccupation of the population. Spas are no longer just centers for
disease treatment, but a means of preventing diseases and protecting human
health. An increasing number of young people are trying to improve their health
through spa treatments. This is why there is a growing tourist offer of spa
centers. Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) has rich natural resources that are
conducive to the creation of spas. Therefore, this study looked into spa offers
and evaluated the transformation of medical spas into modern spa centers in
order to improve competitiveness. Spa transformation survey was conducted on
the example of spas in B&H. Six, out of a total of fifteen registered spas
in B&H, have been chosen randomly. The spa offer was evaluated by applying
the decision-making model and expert decision-making. The obtained results
showed that the spas of Ilidža - Gradačac and Ilidža - Sarajevo have
"good" transformation; the spas Dvorovi and Mlječanica have
"middle" transformation, while the spas of Gata and Sanska Ilidža
have "bad" transformation in the process of creating modern spas.
Based on the results of this study, spa managers can obtain the necessary
information on how to adjust the offer to make those spas more competitive. In
addition, the spas will also generate higher revenues. The decision-making
model used has shown good results and can be applied to future studies and
research.
The lighthouse after Coase: Alternative ways to provide goods and func-tions of state
Authors: Kalyagin Grigoriy
Published: June 2021

This article attempts to answer the question of what determines the choice of the method to provide one or another public good. Why is one good given as a private one, another one as a club good, the third one as a purely public good, and the fourth one as a mix of different forms. In fact, this question includes the question of what the state should (and should not) do. The main part of the article presents a review of the discussion concerning the good, which played a special role in economic theory - the lighthouses. Although the classics of political economy of XIX - early XX centuries considered them as a striking example of pure public goods, the famous article by R. Coase [Coase, 1974] concludes that the services of lighthouses in England and Wales were not funded from general taxes, that is, they were not provided as public goods until the second third of XIX century. Further development of this discussion, which is still incomplete and relevant, leads to the understanding that lighthouse services are provided in different countries and/ or at different times as goods of various types. The same applies to almost any other goods. The concrete way of providing this good depends not only on the country and time, but also on how to estimate the specific offenses it provides. We conclude that there exist no private, public, etc. benefits by themselves, and a socially effective way of delivering benefits depends on the technologies and institutions available in the society.
Foreign analysts on the state of the industry of the USSR in the late 1970s - the first half of the 1980s
Authors: Nazarenko Maksim
Published: June 2021

The article considers the industry estimates of the USSR of the late socialist period contained in the works of foreign economists. Particular attention is paid to the sovietological interpretations of the state of the USSR industrial sector as well as the economic policy of Soviet leadership in generating growth of industrial production, development of the Eastern regions of the country, innovation and modernization of fixed assets. The author concludes that the studies conducted by foreign scientists make it possible to clarify the assessment of the industrial sector of the Soviet Union before Perestroika and to adjust the estimates of economic development of the USSR of the “Brezhnev Era”.
The septoria leaf blotch of wheat in Central Kazakhstan: prognosis, evaluation and monitoring with remotely sensed data
Authors: Malakhov Dmitry
Published: June 2021

Fungal diseases represent a widely spread natural phenomenon affecting many of wild and domesticated plants. In nature, all plant species forms plant communities of a mixed character, and the spatial pattern of dominant species is usually irregular and spotted. Some species are impregnable to a certain infection, which provides a kind of natural barrier to the infection spread within the natural community. Under the agricultural environment, when the single plant species may occupy a huge area, the species-specific parasite takes a great advantage to develop focal outbreaks and fast spreading of the infection within the area. The concentration of vulnerable plants and the absence of natural barriers within the agricultural areas provokes outbreaks of fungal diseases, that may have highly harmful consequences and result in significant yield losses. One of the purposes of the satellite optical data is an operative, cost-effective diagnostic and, in combination with climatic datasets and crop rotation information, a prognosis of fungal disease appearance and severity. In this paper, we describe the system of prognostic and monitoring measures to control the fungal diseases of wheat in Central Kazakhstan with special attention to septoria leaf blotch. The prognostic procedure provides a map of the probability of septoria leaf blotch appearance. The prognosis takes into consideration the combination of three main variables: the model of ecological niche for Septoria, the presence of wheat residue, and Vegetation Condition Index counted for the late spring (May) of the current year. The new spectral index, introduced in this paper, is the core component of monitoring activity. The index is sensitive to septoria leaf blotch severity at middle to late (stages 8-11, accordingly Feekes growth stages) periods of wheat development. Several other indices (RETA, VSDI, vegetation indices) may be of help in providing information on the spatial unevenness of wheat crops that may indicate the presence of fungal infection.
Stability of Neptune’s Distant Resonances in the Presence of Planet Nine
Authors: Clement Matthew S. , Sheppard Scott S.
Published: June 2021

Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) in the scattered disk with 50 ≲ a ≲ 100 au are thought to cluster near Neptune’s n:1 resonances (e.g., 3:1, 4:1, and so on). While these objects spend lengthy periods of time at large heliocentric distances, if their perihelia remain less than around 40 au, their dynamical evolution is still largely coupled to Neptune’s. Conversely, around a dozen extreme TNOs with a ≳ 250 au and detached perihelia seem to exist in a regime where they are too distant to be affected by the giant planets and too close for their dynamics to be governed by external forces. Recent work suggests that the apparent alignment of these orbits in physical space is a signature of gravitational shepherding by a distant massive planet. In this paper, we investigate the evolution of TNOs in each of Neptune’s n:1 resonances between the 3:1 and 14:1. We conclude that both resonant and nonresonant objects beyond the 12:1 near ∼157 au are removed rather efficiently via perturbations from the hypothetical Planet Nine. Additionally, we uncover a population of simulated TNOs with a ≲ 100 au, 40 ≲ q ≲ 45 au, and low inclinations that experience episodes of resonant interactions with both Neptune and Planet Nine. Finally, we simulate the evolution of observed objects with a > 100 au and identify several TNOs that are potentially locked in n:1 resonances with Neptune, including the most distant known resonant candidates, 2014 JW80 and 2014 OS394,which appear to be in the 10:1 and 11:1 resonances, respectively. Our results suggest that the detection of similar remote objects might provide a useful constraint on hypotheses invoking the existence of additional distant planets.

Published: June 2021

We present a well-defined and characterized all-sky sample of classical Cepheids in the Milky Way, obtained by combining two time-domain all-sky surveys: Gaia DR2 (Gaia Collaboration et al. 2018) and All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN; Shappee et al. 2014). We first use parallax and variability information from Gaia to select ∼30,000 bright (G < 17) Cepheid candidates with M

K
< − 1. We then analyze their ASAS-SN V-band light curves, determining periods and classifying the light curves using their Fourier parameters. This results in ∼1900 likely Galactic Cepheids, which we estimate to be ≳90% complete and pure within our adopted selection criteria. This is the largest all-sky sample of Milky Way Cepheids that has such a well-characterized selection function, needed for population modeling and for systematic spectroscopic follow-up foreseen with Sloan Digital Sky Survey-V. About 130 of these potential Cepheids have not been documented in the literature even as possible candidates.

Optical stellar polarimetry in the Perseus molecular cloud direction is known to show a fully mixed bimodal distribution of position angles across the cloud. We study the Gaia trigonometric distances to each of these stars and reveal that the two components in position angles trace two different dust clouds along the line of sight. One component, which shows a polarization angle of −37.°6 ± 35.°2 and a higher polarization fraction of 2.0 ± 1.7 %, primarily traces the Perseus molecular cloud at a distance of 300 pc. The other component, which shows a polarization angle of +66.°8 ± 19.°1 and a lower polarization fraction of 0.8 ± 0.6 %, traces a foreground cloud at a distance of 150 pc. The foreground cloud is faint, with a maximum visual extinction of ≤1 mag. We identify that foreground cloud as the outer edge of the Taurus molecular cloud. Between the Perseus and Taurus molecular clouds, we identify a lower-density ellipsoidal dust cavity with a size of 100–160 pc. This dust cavity is located at l = 170°, b = −20°, and d = 240 pc, which corresponds to an HI shell generally associated with the Per OB2 association. The two-component polarization signature observed toward the Perseus molecular cloud can therefore be explained by a combination of the plane-of-sky orientations of the magnetic field both at the front and at the back of this dust cavity.
