High-grade glioma and solitary metastasis: differentiation by spectroscopy and advanced magnetic resonance techniques
Authors: Arévalo-Sáenz Alejandra , Rodríguez-Boto Amago Gregorio , Pedrosa Sánchez Manuel
Published: September 2022

Background

The differentiation by means of magnetic resonance between high-grade gliomas and intracranial solitary single metastasis is of the utmost importance since they condition both surgical and complementary treatment.

Results

Retrospective study that analyzes the parameters of advanced magnetic resonance imaging: spectroscopy, diffusion and perfusion, specifically focused on the differences in the coefficients of the metabolites Cho/Cr, Cho/NAA and NAA/Cr in peritumoral edema between high-grade gliomas and metastases. The data have been statistically analyzed using ROC (receiver operating characteristic) curves, and cutoff values were obtained.

A total of 79 patients with histologically analyzed tumors were analyzed: 49 high-grade gliomas (40 multiform glioblastomas and 9 anaplastic astrocytomas) and 30 metastases. A statistically significant mean difference was obtained in the three metabolite ratios. The area under the curve for the Cho/NAA ratio was 0.958 (CI: 0.903–1), for Cho/Cr 0.922 (CI: 0.859–0.985) and for NAA/Cr 0.163 (CI: 0.068–0.258; p < 0.001). The cutoff values were 1.115 for Cho/NAA (sensitivity 93.87%, specificity 93.33%, global precision 93.67%); 1.18 for the Cho/Cr ratio (sensitivity 89.79%, specificity 93.33% and precision 91.13%) and 1.155 for the NAA/Cr ratio (sensitivity 67.34%, specificity 93.33%, global precision 44.30%).

Conclusion

The results of the study support the premise that spectroscopy at the level of peritumoral edema is able to differentiate between high-grade gliomas and metastases by showing tumor infiltration in peritumoral edema.
COVID-19 vaccination acceptance and trust among adults in Makkah, Saudi Arabia: a cross-sectional study
Authors: Nour Mohamed O. , Natto Hatim A.
Published: September 2022

Background

Public acceptance, trust, and actual uptake of COVID-19 vaccines are crucial to stem the pandemic. Although roll out of vaccines was high in KSA, the public response was not sufficiently studied. We aimed to investigate knowledge level, acceptance, and trust in COVID-19 vaccination and related predictors among adults in Makkah, KSA.

Methods

A web-based cross-sectional survey using a snowballing sample was carried on 507 adult Saudi population living in Makkah city. The survey was developed based on literature search. In the logistic analysis, the dependent variables included acceptance rate and trust in effectiveness and safety of COVID-19 vaccines, while the independent variables (predictors) were sociodemographics and level of knowledge.

Results

The survey included 507 participants, aged 18–78 years, 55.8% were females, and 36.7% had (or one of their family members) previously been exposed to COVID-19 infection. Their knowledge about COVID-19 vaccination was satisfactory (86.2%) with 71.2% intended to receive COVID-19 vaccination, and 56.4% was confident of the vaccine effectiveness. Vaccine efficacy, duration of protection, schedule of vaccination, and recommendation by authorities may favor their decision to accept or decline COVID-19 vaccines. Good knowledge about vaccines (OR = 2.07; CI: 1.24–3.48 for acceptance and OR = 2.67; CI: 1.58–4.51 for trust), higher educational level (OR = 1.80; CI: 1.07–3.40 for acceptance and OR = 3.59; CI: 2.08–6.21 for trust), previous seasonal flu vaccination (OR = 1.66; CI: 1.09–2.53 for acceptance and OR = 1.91; CI: 1.31–2.79 for trust), female sex (OR = 1.62; CI: 1.1–2.39 for acceptance and OR = 4.15; CI: 2.86–6.04 for trust), and history of COVID-19 infection (OR = 1.57; CI: 1.04–2.37 for acceptance and OR = 1.69; CI: 1.17–2.46 for trust) were among significant predictors for both vaccine acceptance and trust in vaccine effectiveness.

Conclusions

Adult Saudi population in Makkah city showed satisfactory knowledge about COVID-19 vaccination with moderate rate of vaccine acceptance and a relatively low rate of confidence in vaccine effectiveness. Better understanding of public acceptance and trust in COVID-19 vaccines and addressing barriers to vaccination are recommended to improve vaccine coverage and to reinforce some communication characteristics of the current vaccination campaign.

Published: September 2022

Background

Circulating tumor cells represent an opportunity for the assessment of early recurrent disease or for real-time tracing of cancer. Glucose Regulated Protein 78 (GRP78) is known in the literature as a stress factor in endometrial cancer. We aimed to investigate the importance of the gene by targeting tumor traces circulating in the cell fluids of patients with Type 1 endometrial cancer, examining cell-free RNAs in patients’ samples and performing ROC analysis.

Methodology

In this study, 32 endometrial cancer patients and 20 controls were included. This in vitro study evaluated, the GRP78 cell-free mRNA expression levels in endometrial cancer patients, by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction qRT–PCR Light Cycler. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis is a tool used to identify the precision of a diagnostic test or prediction model. In our study, we investigated whether the expression levels of cell-free GRP78 mRNA could be used as a diagnostic criterion.

Results

The ROC curve results for endometrial cancer diagnostic criterion of cfRNA GRP78 mRNA indicated quite a significant value (p < 0.001).

Conclusion

Current findings show that cell-free mRNA GRP78 is now a criterion that can be used together with smear mRNA GRP78 without the need for invasive methods in endometrial cancer studies.
Laparoscopic excision of a very rare isolated gastric enteric duplication cyst: case report and literature review
Authors: Erman Mucahit , Celik Ahmet
Published: September 2022

Background

Gastric duplication cysts are a very rare variant of all enteric duplications, and their isolated forms are much rarer developmental anomalies in the form of case reports only. In this study, a 4-month-old male patient, who was diagnosed with an intra-abdominal cystic mass in his antenatal examination and laparoscopic excision of the isolated gastric duplication was presented.

Case presentation

A 4-month-old male patient was born at 39 weeks of gestation, 3180 g. When a 37 × 17mm intra-abdominal cystic mass was detected in the detailed ultrasonography (USG) performed at the 20th week of his antenatal examination, he was followed up in another center with the preliminary diagnosis of mesenteric cyst and intestinal duplication cyst. It was learned that the patient had transient constipation and vomiting in his history. Physical examination revealed a mobile, smooth-surfaced 5-cm mass on palpation in the lower midline of the abdomen. Control ultrasonography revealed a lobulated contoured cystic lesion measuring 59 × 30 × 23 mm, with a multilayered wall structure and debris inside. In laparoscopy, the mass is mobile, thick-walled, cystic in appearance, isolated from surrounding tissues. It was observed that it was attached to the sigmoid colon mesentery with a handle. The thick peduncle containing the feeding vessels was closed and cut, preserving the mesentery. Thick mucoid cyst contents were aspirated with a percutaneous needle. The shrinking cyst was removed from the abdomen by enlarging the working opening of 5 mm. The macroscopic appearance was consistent with intestinal duplication cyst. The patient was fed orally at the 2nd hour postoperatively and was discharged at the 10th hour. In the pathological examination, gastric duplication cyst was diagnosed due to the type of gastric lining epithelium. No recurrence or additional pathology was detected in the control ultrasonography in the 6-month follow-up postoperatively.

Conclusion

Laparoscopic exploration should be considered as the first surgical option in asymptomatic, growing intra-abdominal cystic masses with a preliminary diagnosis of duplication cysts. The advantages of laparoscopy can make important contributions to patient management.

Published: September 2022

Background

Cognitive impairments are well-established features of psychotic disorders and are present when individuals are at ultra-high risk for psychosis. However, few interventions target cognitive functioning in this population.

Aims

To investigate whether omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n−3 PUFA) supplementation improves cognitive functioning among individuals at ultra-high risk for psychosis.

Method

Data (N = 225) from an international, multi-site, randomised controlled trial (NEURAPRO) were analysed. Participants were given omega-3 supplementation (eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid) or placebo over 6 months. Cognitive functioning was assessed with the Brief Assessment of Cognition in Schizophrenia (BACS). Mixed two-way analyses of variance were computed to compare the change in cognitive performance between omega-3 supplementation and placebo over 6 months. An additional biomarker analysis explored whether change in erythrocyte n−3 PUFA levels predicted change in cognitive performance.

Results

The placebo group showed a modest greater improvement over time than the omega-3 supplementation group for motor speed (ηp2 = 0.09) and BACS composite score (ηp2 = 0.21). After repeating the analyses without individuals who transitioned, motor speed was no longer significant (ηp2 = 0.02), but the composite score remained significant (ηp2 = 0.02). Change in erythrocyte n-3 PUFA levels did not predict change in cognitive performance over 6 months.

Conclusions

We found no evidence to support the use of omega-3 supplementation to improve cognitive functioning in ultra-high risk individuals. The biomarker analysis suggests that this finding is unlikely to be attributed to poor adherence or consumption of non-trial n−3 PUFAs.

Authors: Lazutkina Elena V. , Ratueva Olga N. , Efremova Elena P. , Sidorova Nadezhda A.
Published: September 2022

Background. The relevance of communication of idionyms is directly related to the increase in the external tourist flow, hosting major international competitions, opening industrial clusters, etc., which leads to the development of infrastructure and is most clearly manifested in the restaurant and hotel business where a top-notch translation of culinary and other idionyms becomes a competitive advantage and allows for provision of a high level of service and avoid possible mistakes in intercultural communication.

Purpose. To offer options for an adequate and equivalent communication of culinary idionyms for representatives of non-English-speaking cultures who use English as lingua franca.

Materials and methods. The main menu of the 29th Winter Universiade Krasnoyarsk 2019 and its versions (menus for volunteers, judges and the Ministry of Internal Affairs) were used as material for the study. Research methods: the method of comparative analysis, continuous sampling method in the selection of practical material, descriptive method of linguistic and stylistic analysis.

Results. The authors proposed some versions of communication of culinary idionyms of the Russian language into English using some translation techniques, such as calque, transliteration, descriptive and functional analogue translation.

Practical implications. The practical significance of the study is due to the expansion of the hospitality sector. The authors’ experience could be used translating non-equivalent cultural realities of the Russian language, in particular culinary idionyms used, for instance, when making menus, writing recipes and dietary recommendations, etc.
REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ORENBURG STEPPE CONCEPT TRANSLATED INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
Authors: Belova Natalya A. , Kartashova Uliana N.
Published: September 2022

Purpose. The article is devoted to the analysis of the Orenburg steppe concept and its representatives into English. The aim of the study is to analyze the possible ways of translation of the representatives of this concept.

Materials and methods. To achieve the goal, the following methods and analysis techniques were used: method of continuous sampling, descriptive method, the method of linguoculturological analysis, comparative method. Works of fiction about the Orenburg region and their translations into English, as well as data from bilingual and explanatory dictionaries were used for the purpose of the study.

Results. The analysis of the Orenburg steppe concept and its representatives revealed certain ethno-specific and cultural features in the mental worldview of native English speakers. Most of the components of the concept “Orenburg Steppe” have a similar denotative meaning, while the connotative meaning is either absent or different. This is due to the lack of these realities in the English language. Having analyzed the materials of literary texts about the Orenburg region and its translations, it should be noted that the representatives of the Orenburg steppe concept are a verbalization of the inner state of the author and his attitude to the steppe. Each statement forms a cognitive picture of the author’s world of the work.

Practical implications. The results of the study can be used in theory and practice of translation, as well as in region-oriented translation studies.
CONVENTIONAL INTONATION NORM AS A FUZZY SET: FUZZIFIERS AND DEFUZZIFIERS
Authors: Nenasheva Iuliia А.
Published: September 2022

Purpose. The paper is given to the topic of probabilistic characteristics of the discourse units, being relevant in the course of present-day tendencies towards digitalization of the discourse. The subject for analysis is represented by prosodic characteristics of read-aloud speech imitating face-to-face dialogue. The author aims at representing the conventional intonation norm as a fuzzy set of phonologized intonation contours (ICs). The paper states the factors that determine the specific character of ICs and suggests defining these factors in terms of fuzzy logic.

Methodology. The methodology of the research is based on the interdisciplinary cognitive-discursive approach to studying verbal interaction in discourse, which requires taking into consideration cognitive and discourse factors. The methodology of the presented research also includes regulations stated by the experimental discourse analysis and specified for the purposes of experimental prosodic research.

Results. Computer analysis helps to describe specific features of prosodic organization of the utterance and identify factors that determine this specificity. Identifying determining factors allows to define them as fuzzifiers and defuzzifiers, which help to transmit the meaning of the utterance.

Practical application. The results of the research can be used in creating online/web applications with voice activation/interaction. The results can also be used L2 teaching to advanced students.
SEMANTIC PERCEPTION OF NEOLOGISM BORROWINGS IN TERMS OF MEDIA LANGUAGE
Authors: Yurova Tatyana A.
Published: September 2022

Purpose. This study is developed in order to identify the degree of understanding of neologism borrowings meanings used in the mass media language, hypothetical determination of the digestibility level of the articles, abounding in borrowings, by means of correlating borrowing meanings with thematic areas.

Research method and methodology. The research methods were as follows: a conducting a questionnaire Internet survey, as well as carrying out a descriptive and a comparative analysis.

Results. An analysis of the semantic perception of neologism borrowings by a wide range of the reading public demonstrated the lack of a 100% degree of understanding and the impossibility of unanimous correlation of neologism borrowings meanings with topic areas. This fact indicates the impossibility of a full and quality processing of the information received from the mass media. The need for language canons compliance was identified.

Practical implications. Theoretical and practical results can be applied in lecture courses on the lexicology of the English language and special courses on the discourse of the modern media.
FUNCTIONING OF THE NAMES OF THE SEASONS IN THE ASPECT OF AESTHETIC CATEGORIES REFLECTION (BASED ON THE MATERIAL OF POETIC WORKS OF THE XX–XXI CENTURIES)
Authors: Xiaoxu Wang
Published: September 2022

Purpose. The article is devoted to the study of the functioning of the names of the seasons in Russian poetry of the XX–XXI centuries. The relevance of this work is due to the insufficient elaboration of a number of issues concerning the aesthetic potential of linguistic units, including temporal lexemes denoting the seasons, as well as the need to describe them as significant elements of a literary text. The purpose of the study is to analyze the data of temporal words in the aspect of reflection of aesthetic categories.

Materials and methods. The research material was the texts of poetic works of the XX–XXI centuries, collected and systematized on the basis of a sample from the National Corpus of the Russian language. For the purposes of the study, such basic methods as observation, classification, generalization, descriptive-analytical, component analysis method were used.

Results. The analysis of the linguistic material showed that the names of the seasons are used to reflect only two aesthetic categories, i.e., the beautiful and the sublime. At the same time, most of the examples relate to the description of the beauty of the landscape.

Practical implications. The conclusions obtained in the course of the study can be used in teaching university courses on lexicology, linguoculturology and philological analysis of poetic speech.

Authors: Husnullina Yuliya A.
Published: September 2022

Purpose. The study focuses on the analysis of English lexical system development, while paying special attention to English neologisms of the last decade. The relevance of this study is due to the appeal to the study of English vocabulary as an indicator of modern development trends of the lexical system as a whole.

Methods. In the course of the research, methods of statistical, word-formation, contextual, semantic, structural, component and definitional analysis were applied.

The material of the study. The data of modern lexicographic online dictionaries with regularly updated corpora, online versions of periodicals, the linguistic portal and the American Dialect Society were used.

Results. The article examines the development of lexical system in the diachronic aspect, along with the description of modern trends in the development of English neolexics. The author comes to the conclusion that the dynamics of English ICT neologisms development is positive and expeditious. As a result, it is proved that computer technologies and information and communication medium act as a form- and meaning-forming principle in the word-formation process. These extralinguistic factors actively stimulate the process of neologization in order to meet the emerging need for lexicalization of new concepts, objects and phenomena of reality.

Practical implications. The practical significance of the research results lies in the possibility of using the obtained data in a lecture course and when compiling textbooks on lexicology, intercultural communication and in special courses on neology.

Authors: Boguslavskaya Vera V. , Yu Hongbo
Published: September 2022

Background. In connection with the active interest of researchers in the problems of social interaction in the public communicative space, it is reasonable for the authors to refer to the advertising technical discourse, where the features of social communication are due to different types of target audience, i.e., specialists, business people and the mass audience.

The purpose of the study is to identify and characterize the sociolinguistic features of advertising technical discourse, taking into account the social purposefulness and targeting of this type of discourse.

Materials and methods. The empirical material was advertising booklets and ads in Yandex from 2018 to 2022. The sample size for the article was 140 texts of technical advertising. When analyzing the material, interpretive analysis, the method of content analysis were used.

Results. The results of the study showed that technical advertising texts intended for specialists are characterized by the use of special terms. Those addressed to business people are characterized by the dominance of lexical units of economic subjects, the active use of attributive phrases, abbreviations in the field of economics and the international security standard. Technical advertising for a mass audience is distinguished by the use of evaluative words and expressions, various stylistic means. The analysis of social interaction in advertising technical discourse made it possible to identify the sociolinguistic specifics of advertising technical discourse by characterizing the language means used in advertising created for different types of recipients.

Practical implications. The results of the study can be used in practical work by advertising specialists who promote technical and high-tech products on the market; in lecture courses on lexicology and advertising discourse, they can also be useful to scientists involved in research on technical and scientific and technical advertising.
THE STRUCTURE AND SPECIFICS OF FINANCING SECONDARY VOCATIONAL EDUCATION IN RUSSIA AT THE TURN OF THE 19TH – 20TH CENTURIES
Authors: Magsumov Timur A.
Published: September 2022

Research purpose is to analyze the structure and specifics of financing secondary vocational education in Russia in the late 19th – early 20th centuries.

Method or methodology for work performance: the main method is a historical-genetic one; descriptions include quantitative indicators identified in statistical sources.

Results: the practice of multi-channel financing of secondary vocational schools in late imperial Russia was based on the state-public principle through co-financing, taking into account an organizational-legal form and departmental affiliation of different types of schools, which was reflected in the introduction of public financial reporting of educational institutions. As a result, residual school funding was more sustainable, which was also supported by the high share of tuition fees in school budgets. Acting as a mechanism of social segmentation, it largely hampered the search for external financial resources in the state school, weakening the interaction between the school and the local society and, on the contrary, activating these processes in the non-state school, at the same time it strengthened market mechanisms for relationships with customers of educational services, reducing the quality of education for the future by increasing and maximizing the retention of the contingent of students. The stability of tuition fees, partly regulated by direct state intervention, but restrained by the growth of competition to a greater extent, along with the expansion of charitable practices by transferring them to support not only schools in general, but also individual students, weakened the social segmentation of the school institution, creating conditions for the growth of human capital. The sources of self-sufficiency for production-type schools were insignificant, even in agricultural schools, which training farms could not be converted to a commercial footing. The dominance of items for salaries and maintenance of the material base in the structure of school budget expenditures emphasized the lack of school funding, the problems of teaching staff competitiveness and the usefulness of the material base.

Practical implications: the historical experience of multi-channel financing can be used in modern practices of replenishing school budgets, including by improving the ways of interaction with local and regional society and the general public.

Authors: Rebrina Larisa N.
Published: September 2022

Purpose. The study is aimed at determining the general and linguocultural specific characteristics of the lexico-semantic representation of the phenomenon of solidarity in the Russian and German linguocultures through a multi-aspect analysis of verb collocations.

Methodology. Collocations are considered as statistically stable phrases that reflect the language usage as well as the native speakers’ concept of solidarity. The structure, internal and external transitivity / intransitivity, objectivity, subjectivity, seriality, structural-semantic models, thematic codes, pragmatic component of the meaning of collocations are described. The established characteristics of the lexical-semantic representation of solidarity in two linguistic cultures are compared. The descriptive, comparative method, structural-semantic modeling, semantic, distributive analysis, classification method, quantitative calculations are used.

Results. The vector nature of the keywords interlingual correspondence, the predominance of a positive presentation of solidarity in both languages are established; differences in the presentation of solidarity situations as initiated by the subject / involuntary, in frequency subject codes and a tendency to form a series of collocations, in lexical-semantic differentiation of various solidarity situations and grounds for a negative assessment of solidarity are identified.

Practical implications. The results can be used in lexicographic practice, in research on related topics; in university courses on lexicology and semantics.
STRUCTURAL AND SEMANTIC ANALYSIS OF FRENCH PROVERBS WITH THE CONCEPT OF “PAIN”
Authors: Kogteva Elena V.
Published: September 2022

Background. In the case of a person speaking foreign language the proverb acts not only as an argument of their own statement but also as a mean of saving language. Therefore, the statement becomes more vivid, meaningful when using fewer words. Since “pain” is one of the basic proverbial concepts of the French language, such proverbs have become the object of the study.

Purpose. The article deals with the proverbs with the concept “pain” in grammatical and syntactic structure as well as their semantic meaning.

Materials and methods. The actual material for the study was open electronic publications. Analyzing the material, the author of the article used the method of continuous sampling, as well as methods of analysis and synthesis.

Results. The results of the analysis showed that there was an uncharacteristic word order in the proverbs with “pain”. The studied proverbs revealed both complex sentences, the dependent part of which most often begins with si, quand, qui, and simple ones, among which a fairly large number of constructions are averbal. Not a single case of the use of interrogative constructions was revealed. Among the motivational verbs, the most frequent were verbs in the imperative mood, the phrase Il faut, Subjonctif.

There were cases of absence of the article, parallelism, anaphora, especially in the preposition, as well as oppositions.

The high variability of the studied proverbs (up to 30 variants) is revealed, expressed in the use of various lexical means while preserving the general meaning.

The plurality nature of proverbs is noted, since most of them have both literal and figurative meanings.

Practical implications. The results of the study can be used to improve the linguistic and cultural competence of students.
ALEXEY TURBIN ‘S INITIATION PLOT IN THE WHITE GUARD NOVEL BY M.A. BULGAKOV
Authors: Ibatullina Guzel M. , Krivda Maria M.
Published: September 2022

Background. The problem of the functioning of archetypal plots and related images and motifs in the artistic structure of the novel The White Guard by Mikhail Bulgakov remains practically unexplored in literary criticism. This also applies to the episode of the meeting between Alexei Turbin and Julia Reiss, in which the logic of the initiation plot is revealed, implemented in the text through a system of folklore-fairytale and mythological references that require detailed analysis and interpretation.

Purpose. The purpose of the article is to study the figurative and semantic paradigm of the initiation plot in the history of the acquaintance of Alexey Turbin and Julia Reiss.

Materials and methods. The material of the study is the episodes presented in Chapters 10–13 of the novel. At the same time, the analyzed fragments are considered taking into account the artistic and semantic contexts of the work as a whole. In the process of research, mythopoetic, structural-comparative, systemic-functional methods of text analysis were used.

Results. The results of the study showed that in the analyzed fragments of the novel detected parallels with the system of fairy tale motifs associated with the archetype of initiation. In the narrative logic of the episode, the main stages of this plot are highlighted: departure // isolation of the hero; trials and temptations; symbolic death; resurrection and transformation. A similar parallelism is revealed in the structure of the chronotope: Turbin, like fairy-tale end mythological heroes, undergoes initiation in a symbolic other world, where he moves from the real-empirical space. Pivotal to the logic of the development of events is the fabulous motive of flight with a number of transformations of the hero and his “miraculous” escape from persecution with the help of Julia Reiss. Turbin repeatedly experiences “meetings with death” as the culminating stages of initiation, in the finale of the plot collision there is a revival and the return of the hero to the real world.

Practical implications. The results of the study can be used in the courses of studying Russian literature at the university and school.
DIFFERENTIATION OF THE CONCEPTS PROPER NAME AND REALIА (BASED ON THE NOVEL A WEEK IN DECEMBER BY S. FAULKS)
Authors: Lashtabova Natalia V. , Khuzhina Karina E.
Published: September 2022

The concepts of proper names and realias, as well as the differentiation of these terms based on the novel A Week in December by S. Faulks are considered in this article. Classifications of onomastic realias are given.

Purpose. Differentiation of the concepts of onym and realia, consideration of the types of onomastic realias according to the classifications of S. Vlakhov and S. Florin, V.V. Vinogradov, G.D. Tomakhin.

Materials and methods. The research material comprises the novel A Week in December by S. Faulks and its translation into Russian, made by S.B. Ilyin. Method of theoretical analysis, descriptive and comparative methods were chosen as methods of scientific research.

Results. The results of the study proved that not all proper names should be attributed to the realias. Since the main characteristic feature of the realias is a pronounced national component, only proper names that have a national coloring can belong to this group. This class of onyms usually includes anthroponyms and toponyms with a cultural component.

Practical implications. The results of the research can be used in further study of the issue of differentiation of the concepts of proper name and realia, as well as in the classification of these terms.

Studies in the field of musical translation and opera compositions were considered, difficulties that an interpreter may face were identified. Using the example of N. Tate’s libretto for the opera “Dido and Aeneas”, the texts of the recitative and Dido’s aria were analyzed, as well as the ways of its translation into Russian.

Background. To achieve adequacy in the translation of musical compositions, in particular opera librettos, translators resort to the use of various types of transformations. On basis of the libretto for the opera “Dido and Aeneas”, the analysis of Y. Dimitrin’s translation is carried out.

Purpose. To identify and analyze the translation transformations of Y. Dimitrin’s libretto of the opera “Dido and Aeneas” in comparison with the literal translation.

Materials and methods. The research material was G. Purcell’s opera “Dido and Aeneas” and its translation into Russian. During the analysis of the material, the method of analysis and synthesis of theoretical scientific material on the topic under study, as well as the comparative method were used.

Results. The results of the study proved that due to the difference in the structures of languages, the interpreter faced a number of problems in translation of the recitative and Dido’s aria of the opera. In the process, he was forced to use such translation methods as addition, omission, and integral transformation, which helped him make the Russian version close in meaning and in content.

Practical implications. The results of the research can be used by students of linguistic universities interested in poetic translation, as well as by translators with experience in translating musical compositions, for a profound understanding of the possibilities of using translation transformations.

The article is aimed at the analysis of the requirements for song translation. We have considered the studies of foreign and Russian linguists on song translation, identified the difficulties that a translator may face, translation solutions, and criteria for song translation. We analyzed the lyrics of the song What I’ve been looking for and its official translation performed by Mikhail Cherepnin and then we discovered whether the translator complied with the requirements or not.

Background. There is a number of translation solutions and rules that allow achieving adequacy in the translation of musical texts and libretto of musicals. The analysis of M. Cherepnin’s translation is made on the material of the text of the High School Musical musical film.

Purpose. The article considered the features of the translation of a musical text on the example of the translation of the song What I’ve been looking for performed by M. Cherepnin.

Materials and methods. The material of the study was the High School Musical film and its official literary translation into Russian. We used the method of selection and analysis of theoretical material, the method of pre-translation, translation, post-translation analysis and comparative method when analyzing the text.

Results. The results of our study showed that M. Cherepnin faced a lot of obstacles when translating the text of this musical film. His main goal was to preserve the singing component of the text, and not its figurative system, which affected the aesthetic and emotional impact.

Practical implications. The results of our research can find a wide range of applications: they will be useful both for amateur translators involved in the interpretation of musical works, and for professional translators and linguists actively working in the field of song translation and studying it as a phenomenon.

HEALTHCARE IN THE CONTEXT OF THE SOCIAL POLICY OF THE SOVIET STATE IN THE LATE 1920S-30S OF THE XXTH CENTURY (BY THE MATERIALS OF NIZHNY NOVGOROD AND KIROV REGIONS)
Authors: Gallyamova Zemfira V.
Published: September 2022

Background. The processes of modernisation in the late 20s-30s of the 20th century (or in the 20-30s of the 20th century) resulted in qualitative changes in all life spheres of the Russian society. The radical renewal of industrial production was accompanied by the creation of a complex social infrastructure. This causes interest in the organization of the healthcare system as a criterion for socially-oriented management under a large-scale transformation of Russia.

Purpose. The aim of the article is to analyse health care as a modernisation element of social and economic changes during the Great Leap.

Materials and methods. The author bases his research on unpublished archival materials, materials of local periodicals, normative acts of the Soviet government. When analysing the material, the author resorts to special methods of historical research.

Results. The results of the study show that in the 20-30s of the 20th century, health care becomes one of the most important areas of state policy, flexibly incorporating into the modernisation course. The organisation of health care took place in difficult conditions of forming a new state, restoring after post-war devastation and combating epidemics. The chosen vector of the socio-economic course determined social priorities for healthcare. A differentiated, class approach to medical care for the population proceeded in accordance with the program guidelines outlined in the five-year plans. Maintaining the health of the working class was regarded one of the leading factors of production. Under the lack of workers, one of the most important public policies was the involvement of women in production and, as a result, the deployment of preventive medical measures in childcare centres.

At the same time, there is an apparent bias in medical care in favor of urban areas. In the conditions of forced industrialisation, limited resources, the agricultural sector was considered more a source of financing than an object of investment. In general, the health care system built according to the principles of N.A. Semashko provided for the unity of command, a wide territorial coverage, including the provision of medical care to the entire population. But historical conditions did not allow the declared provisions to be realised full-scale.

Practical implications. The results of the study can be used in writing generalizing works on the social policy in the late 1920s-30s of the XXTH century.
