Aim: to evaluate the efficacy and safety of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) implantation for the high myopia correction. Patients and Methods: 37 patients (55 eyes) aged 20 to 43 years were included in the study. All patients underwent the following ophthalmic examinations before surgery: visometry, autorefractometry, biometry, tonometry, optical coherence tomography, evaluation of corneal endothelial cell density, peripheral retinal exam using a Goldmann lens. pIOL power calculation was conducted using a modified vergence formula. All surgeries were performed by one surgeon according to the standard procedure. Patients were examined after surgery after 1 day, 1 month, 3 months, then every 6 months for 3 years. Visometry was performed 1 day and 1 month after the surgery. During subsequent visits, all of the listed examinations were performed, except for peripheral retinal exam using a Goldmann lens. Results: all patients completed the study. There were no intraoperative complications. No cases of cataracts or other postoperative complications were observed during 3-year follow-up. Uncorrected visual acuity 3 years after surgery was 18.4% higher than the maximum corrected visual acuity before surgery, and target refraction was observed in 86% of the eyes. Intraocular pressure during 3-year follow-up was within the normal range and averaged 17.04 mmHg. Fluctuations in the lens vault from the pIOL posterior surface to the anterior surface of the lens (VAULT) were within the normal range. Corneal endothelial cell density decreased by an average of 0.09% 3 years after surger During 3-year follow-up, there were no clinically significant changes in the anterior chamber depth of the eye. The average change in the axis orientation was also <6° for all visit intervals. At the same time, the patients did not notice a change in the pIOL orientation up to 10°. Conclusion: pIOL implantation is a safe and effective method for high myopia surgical correction.

Ocular hypotensive prostaglandin analogues (PGAs) are prodrugs that penetrate the cornea and become biologically active after hydrolysis by corneal esterase. They reduce intracranial pressure by increasing the uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humour and decreasing the outflow resistance. PGAs remain relevant as the first-line therapy drugs for patients with newly diagnosed glaucoma. The obvious exposure drawbacks of eye drops with preservatives have become prerequisites for the use of preservative-free medicines. Currently, it is recommended to use eye drops with preservatives less commonly, in the ideal case — only preservative-free products. In turn, the production of preservative-free drugs requires suitable carriers for the medicinal substance delivery — special vials (that do not depressurize when used) or monodoses. At present, reusable polymer dropper bottles have been developed, equipped with a valve that excludes the fluid intake return, a nozzle with antibacterial elements and an embedded sterilizing air filter. In the pharmaceutical market, travoprost is presented in the dosage form of eye drops, 0.04 mg/mL. This drug implements the described mechanism of drug storage and delivery. The review presents a meta-analysis on the comparative efficacy and tolerability of travoprost. Preservative-free travoprost presence on the pharmaceutical market in a special vial expands the range of available anti-glaucoma drugs.

Over the last few years, viral conjunctivitis in children has become a significant challenge. Modern diagnostic techniques facilitate a prompt detection of this disease, assuming that a qualified approach is used by the ophthalmologist for making diagnosis in such cases. As a broad spectrum of drugs is available for the treatment of inflammation of the anterior eye segment, the ophthalmologist can customize medications for each patient with viral conjunctivitis. The key problem of pediatric ophthalmology is associated with the age limits for choosing eye drops and ointments. Besides, most cases of viral conjunctivitis in children occur amid infection of the upper respiratory tract, requiring a comprehensive approach to the management of this health condition. The article describes the most common types of child’s conjunctivitis and provides authors’ own findings for 195 patients, 0–18 years old, including the specific clinical features and the considerations for treatment. In addition, a clinical case report is presented where an incorrect interpretation of symptoms of the anterior eye segment inflammation has led to the inappropriate medication administration and the development of such complications as keratitis and reduced visual acuity. In general, timely diagnosis of the disease and adequate treatment of pediatric patients, in contrast to adults, ensures an uncomplicated clinical outcome, without scarring, uveitis or residual infiltrates.

Authors:   Academic Association of Global Cultural Contents, Wang Yue , Park Ji Hoon
Published: September 2022

Cyber-nationalism in China which has become more salient over the last decade is a major factor that contributes to increasing anti-Korean sentiments in China. By interviewing 20 Chinese K-Pop fans, this study explores how Chinese K-Pop fandoms display and construct their nationalism and how they negotiate their love for Korean idols and their homeland China. Once criticized as unpatriotic, K-pop fandoms declare their hated towards Korea and stay vigilant about Korean stars’ political speech to rationalize their fanship of Korean stars. This phenomenon reflects strong nationalism of Chinese fans that mediate their consumption of K-Pop.

Published: September 2022

Cultural contents require a complex and holistic approach while responding to technological developments entering the 4th industrial age. For this, creativity based on the humanities is required. It is very important to improve creative problem-solving ability based on creativity, and methodological research to improve it while applying it to real problems is urgently needed. In this study, we propose an action learning-based video content class model to cultivate creativity and creative problem-solving ability. In addition, reflecting the reality that classes beyond face-to-face classes are needed due to COVID-19, the expansion of online and offline blended action learning was promoted. Through this study, it is hoped that the study of the cultural content class model that is helpful in solving practical problems will be continuously realized, and I hope that the diversity of cultural content at the interface between the humanities and technology will be made more actively.
Exploring the Possibility of Trans-Identity Storytelling as a Methodology for Film Criticism
Authors:   Academic Association of Global Cultural Contents, Lee Jonghyun
Published: September 2022

This study expands the concept of trans-identity storytelling and explores its potential as a film criticism methodology. Trans-identity storytelling is a theory that studies narratives from the perspective of characters on the premise that the composition of movie narratives is developed with a focus on the change of person's identity. In order to be precise in the content of the concept, the etymological meaning of ‘Trans’ and the perception of existing scholars were examined, and the characteristics of incompleteness of words were useful in explaining beings that were wealthy or changed in the world's recognition system. The concept of ‘Trans-media storytelling’, a relative concept of trans-identity storytelling, was critically reviewed, and it was revealed that both industrial and humanistic values were included due to the content-oriented and human-oriented nature of the concept. In addition, trans identity storytelling is connected to the traditional narrative writing principle and embraces popularity in that it aims for a change in characters. On the one hand, the act of changing identity is a phenomenon that deviates from the universal realm in defiance of the solid recognition system of the existing society, and encompasses the value of diversity in terms of individuality and specificity against universality. In other words, trans- identity storytelling is a narrative theory that can convey their stories interestingly while illuminating people outside the mainstream of the world. Furthermore, if film criticism is a work to seek positive changes in the world by discovering profound content on the basis of film's outerization, trans-identity storytelling, which criticizes the world's dichotomous perception system and respects the values of various humans, becomes the foundation of endless profoundness. Film criticism and trans-identity storytelling can be connected by a shared point that aims for change in humans and the world. In the future, we hope that trans-identity storytelling, which conveys the value of humanity, will become rich and that movie criticism from the perspective of trans-identity, which leads to the transformation of the world, will become the mainstream.
AR game design based on Myeong-dong contents and place in 1920-30s: Focusing on AR game Myeongdong Nori
Authors:   Academic Association of Global Cultural Contents, Cho Jungmi , Kihl Taesuk
Published: September 2022

In this study, the process of AR game storytelling based on the physical place of Myeong-dong and the historical and cultural information of Myeong-dong in the 1920s-30s was specified, noting that the spatio-temporal meaning of the place can be discovered, expanded, and shared through game play in AR games. The main concept of Myeongdong Nori (tentative name) game design is Myeongdong experience in the 1920s and 30s based on AR technology, and the target experience is storytelling through reasoning, place experience, and role experience activities. In place-based AR games, players derive different games based on their experiences and choices, and actively construct the meaning of the game, which requires storytelling that provides rich information and situations. Therefore, characters, places, episodes, and visual materials centered on Myeong-dong in the 1920s and 30s were widely collected, and information DB was constructed using digital tools, and a series of processes were presented to plan game storytelling based on this. It is hoped that the place-based AR game storytelling study based on Myeong-dong content in the 1920s and 30s covered in this study can be used as the basis for a place-based AR game design model in which virtual time and real space-time experience are realized in the future.
Confucian Ideas hidden in a modern hero epic of K-Drama: Focusing on the Korean TV drama series, Itaewon Class
Authors:   Academic Association of Global Cultural Contents, Yun BokSil
Published: September 2022

This study aims to examine the thought inherent in the hero narrative of the TV drama series, Itaewon Class. That is because it is judged that the universal value of mankind is contained in the heroic narrative, which is the prototype of the narrative. This is why this study aims to explore the philosophical thoughts of chung-seo (忠恕) as a theoretical background. The idea of chung-seo, a core concept of Confucius along with benevolence (仁) and rite (禮), is understood in terms of Juja’s ideas. In this context, chung (忠) refers to jinsimjigi (盡心之己) which means doing one’s best to keep his heart, and seo (恕) refers to not forcing others to do what he or she does not want to do. This study utilizes the heroic narrative stages advanced by Christopher Vogler as a method to analyze the drama, Itaewon Class in order to find the intertextuality between the drama and the ideology of chung-seo. Therefore, this paper first confirms that the drama is a heroic narrative, and tries to reveal the thought inherent in the drama. The study results are as follows: In the drama, Itaewon Class with a heroic narrative, a vocation is given to the main character, Sae-Roi Park to exclude violence, and the changed vocation is to prove that the business ethics is keeping faith with his coworkers. And, through the fulfillment of the main character’s vocation, the drama successfully acquires the elixir of moral life orientation. In addition, as a result of analysis, it was found that the main character, Sae-Roi Park, is a character with the idea of chung, the necessary and sufficient condition for a hero. In this context, chung is extended from the self, to the others, to the society, etc. Based on this, the main character practices the idea of chung, which returns chung to the main character, leading him to achieve his purpose. This is the universal moral value contained in the drama. Through this, this study confirms that the ideology inherent in the drama Itaewon Class is the ideology of chung-seo.
A Study on the Performativity of a Personal Media Creator ‘HanguoDongdong’
Authors:   Academic Association of Global Cultural Contents, Ahn Chang Hyun
Published: September 2022

This study analyzed in terms of performance how Korean one-person media creator ‘Hanguo Dongdong’ which is based on various Chinese pop cultures, interacts with Chinese users and forms empathy. Through this, it was intended to expand one-person media research focused on economic perspectives and media aspects to creators as the subject of behavior. At the same time, we tried to elucidate the dynamic mechanism of interaction between creators-contents-users.
First of all, looking at the characteristics of ‘Hanguo Dongdong’ in terms of content, ‘Hanguo Dongdong’ is often remade existing content based on the living culture of both Korea and China, and among them, the main user is Chinese.
In terms of creators, ‘Hanguo Dongdong’ weakens the cultural boundaries of the two countries and serves as a ‘borderman’ connecting the two countries. To this end, first, it forms a dual cultural identity, second, plays the role of a ‘friendly friend’, third, plays a role of representing Korea, and fourth, dismantles the distorted representation of Korea and China. Through the above actions, ‘Hanguo Dongdong’ has the performance of cultural boundary-crossing and boundary-spanning between the two countries.
Chinese fans of ‘Hanguo Dongdong’ who are users of one-person media while also another subject, watch videos, press ‘Like’, comment, subscribe, and participate in the fan community. Expressing empathy for performances such as speech and commentary in the content of ‘Hanguo Dongdong’ they connected emotions divided into ethnic groups and countries through active performances such as ‘mirror reflection’ looking back on their culture and society, ‘talking’ with creators, and ‘hospitality’ with subscriptions and sponsors.

Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) is a type of congenital hemolytic anemia, in which heterogeneous alterations in one of the six genes that encode for proteins involved in vertical associations which tie the red blood cell (RBC) membrane skeleton to the lipid bilayer causesdysfunction or deficiency of cell membrane protein resulting in spherical-shaped, hyper- dense, and poorly deformable RBCs with a shortened life span. We report a case of HS in a 2-month-old female who presented with severe anemia, jaundice, and hepatosplenomegaly.The peripheral blood smear showed spherocytosis and reticulocytosis. The osmotic fragility was positive and direct antiglobin test was negative. The osmotic fragility test and direct antiglobulin test were positive. She was managed with packed RBCs (PRBCs) transfusionand folic acid supplementation.

Published: September 2022

Anorectal disorders, anal fissures, and distal polyps are the most common causes of hematochezia in children. However, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), even though quite rare in children, can present with an isolated per rectal bleeding. Early onset IBD is described in patients younger than 10 years of age; however, these are rare instances of even neonates presenting with IBD. Here, we report the case of a 6-year-old girl who presented with episodes of per rectal bleeding for several months with severe anemia and malnutrition and was also found to have an anteriorly displaced anus. She underwent colonoscopy which revealed features suggestive of ulcerative colitis which was eventually confirmed by biopsy. She was treated with corticosteroids and aminosalicylate, namely, Mesalamine. Later, the patient was treated with Azathioprine which resulted in the complete resolution of symptoms and improvement in nutritional status that was evident on regular follow-ups. IBD in children younger than 10 years of age is a rare entity and requires a strong suspicion for diagnosis.

MODERN CONSISTING AND BASIC PROBLEMS OF FINANCIAL PROVIDING OF SOCIAL DEFENCE OF POPULATION IN UKRAINE
Authors:   State Biotechnological University, Hridin Oleksandr
Published: September 2022

The article examines in detail the current system of financial support for the social sphere in Ukraine. It is established that state Social Security in conjunction with social insurance is the basis of most modern national social protection systems in the world, and the presence of a balanced state social protection system is a necessary condition for ensuring the stable functioning of modern society. The assessment of the state and dynamics of expenditures on social protection and Social Security in Ukraine was carried out. It is determined that the desocialization of the budget is an extremely dangerous phenomenon, since, due to an unjustified reduction in social benefits and benefits, there is a threat of causing a significant deterioration in the socio-economic situation of the population, which in the future can have a very negative impact on the economic development of the country as a whole. At the same time, haphazardness and duplication of types of social benefits and benefits is absolutely unacceptable. It is established that the current trend of reducing social spending in Ukraine is mainly due to the optimization of the number and size of Social Services, which are increasingly personalized in nature. The main problems of financial support of the social sphere in modern realities are outlined. It is established that broad powers for social protection of the population of Ukraine are very often not provided with appropriate amounts of funds from established sources of funding, which, given the trend of increasing centralization of budget funds, negatively affects both the level and completeness of financing of social expenditures on the ground. It is argued that one of the main problems of financial support for social protection of the population at the local level is the imperfection of inter-budgetary relations in the context of the completeness of financing the powers assigned to local authorities regarding various types of social payments and programs. Promising areas for improving the existing social security system and the necessary conditions for proper functioning of the social protection system mechanism in Ukraine are highlighted. It is proved that a significant improvement in the financial provision of social protection at the local level is almost impossible without significantly strengthening the financial base and increasing the financial independence of local budgets. The necessity of consistent changes in the system of organizing the provision and financing of state social assistance is justified, taking into account the crisis of state financial resources, the negative demographic and economic situation both in Ukraine and in the world as a whole.

PRODUCTION POTENTIAL OF THE LIVESTOCK INDUSTRY OF UKRAINE: ANALYSIS AND PROSPECTS OF DEVELOPMENT
Authors:   Sumy National Agrarian University, Kovalova Olha , Ralkova Karina ,   Sumy National Agrarian University
Published: September 2022

Ukraine has a huge potential for the development of agriculture, including the livestock industry. The production potential of agriculture is represented by a set of production potentials of individual enterprises and consists of a set of resources of agricultural enterprises and the ability to produce a certain amount of agricultural products to meet the needs of domestic consumers in Ukraine and foreign consumers importing Ukrainian products. However, due to the reduction of forage areas, high cost of purchased feed, high need for primary investment and a long payback period in Ukraine today the livestock industry is in crisis and the industry's potential is declining. The number of animals has decreased recently and production is unprofitable, except for milk. Production is concentrated mainly in households, which, due to lack of funds from small producers, does not allow the introduction of new technologies to reduce costs and increase animal productivity. Analysis of the interdependence of per capita production on the increase in the share of production in households showed that the dependence on meat and eggs is negative, ie with increasing share of production in households, per capita production decreases. There is a weak bond in milk. Accordingly, modern volumes of livestock production do not allow to ensure even the norms of food consumption by the population. To strengthen the potential of animal husbandry, state support is needed in the form of preferential lending and taxation, creating conditions for domestic and foreign investment in the creation of closed-loop enterprises, processing mini-enterprises. This will strengthen the export potential of the livestock industry, which will be able to focus not only on production but also on its own processing and sale of products that meet international quality standards. State aid is also needed for farmers to install alternative sources of fuel and energy. Commodity producers themselves must organize cooperatives for joint development of investments and the creation of processing enterprises. Thus, Ukraine's role in providing food to the world's population will only grow in the long run.

Published: September 2022

The article substantiates a systematic approach to the transformation of old industrial regions in a recession, which, in contrast to existing ones, allows to detail the conceptual and categorical apparatus on the formation of old industrial regions; to structure the main features of the old industrial regions; to form ways of transformation of old industrial regions in the conditions of recession; is based on special research methods: abstract-logical analysis, systematization and combination, terminological analysis, method of theoretical generalization, method of monitoring, statistical analysis, graphical and tabular approach. The conceptual and categorical apparatus on the formation of old industrial regions is detailed and it is determined that the old industrial region is a socio-economic system that has a retrospective historical period of formation in which it could not move from production to production of ideas, operates in a recession with degraded structure, physically depreciated fixed assets and constant lack of capital and current financing. The main features of old industrial regions are determined: branch, regional, infrastructural, investment-innovative. Monitoring of the state and trends of development of old industrial regions of Eastern Ukraine was performed: analysis of general indicators of development of old industrial regions (population dynamics, migration growth, natural increase, poverty rate, unemployment rate); the development trends of industrial enterprises were monitored on the basis of absolute and relative indicators (number of industrial enterprises, % of unprofitable enterprises, volume of output, volume of sold products, profit, loss, number of employees). The ways of transformation of old industrial regions in the conditions of recession are offered: definition of anti-crisis strategy on the basis of monitoring of retrospective periods; formation of own regional policy and investment base for its implementation; support of old industrial regions and cities based on innovative aspects of the industrial revolution 4.0, integration of regions into the system of world economic relations based on the experience of post-industrial countries.
THE PRACTICE OF APPLYING THE CONCEPT OF SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE MARKETING BY INTERNATIONAL COMPANIES DURING THE RUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN WAR

Published: September 2022

The article summarizes the practice of applying different approaches to substantiation of marketing decisions by international companies on activities in the Russian market during the Russian-Ukrainian war from the standpoint of the concept of socially responsible marketing. The theoretical content of the concept of "socially responsible marketing" and its importance in the activities of companies are investigated. The analysis of the processes and motivation of taken decisions to reduce or terminate in the russian market during FebruaryApril 2022 by some international companies in the context of the concept of socially responsible marketing suggests that even with no economic sanctions on their activities, most of them has made decisions using ethical approach, which is based on the idea of moral and ethical responsibility of business and individual managers to the global society. The need to use this approach was partly inspired by the active pressure of international public opinion, which in today's conditions is an element of coercion to socially responsible behavior. It is determined that a significant part of these companies retain the opportunity to quickly return to normal work in the russian market in the event of a decrease in the intensity of hostilities or immediately after their completion. Other international companies that have decided to continue their activities in russia, in making decisions, used mainly economic and social approaches, according to which the company performs its economic function, producing goods and services necessary for society and creating jobs, responsibly treat consumers, employees, partners. It can also be argued that with the continuation of the russian-Ukrainian war, the number of international companies operating in the russian market will continue to decline due to additional sanctions on this country, complicated logistics, payment systems, reduced solvency demand and so on. The prospect of further research is to determine the level of reputational and, consequently, economic losses of international companies, which in such situations are guided only by economic and social approaches to the formation of a system of socially responsible marketing.
Beyond the features: The role of consistency in impressions of trust
Authors: Winkielman Piotr , Nowak Andrzej
Published: September 2022

To be successful in social life, perceivers need to form impressions of other people's trustworthiness. Current models of this process emphasize the role of specific descriptive content–individual verbal and visual features determining trust impressions. In contrast, we describe three lines of our research showing that trust impressions also depend on consistency–a sense of fit–between features. The first line demonstrates that consistency of brief verbal characterizations increases trust judgments. The second line shows that trust judgments and behaviors are boosted by incidental consistency between the foreground and background of visual scenes. The third line observes that consistency between facial features enhances impressions of trustworthiness. In all these studies, consistency (measured via subjective ratings, reaction times, and physiological measures) positively and uniquely predicted trust judgments. Overall, our results, and related findings, show that trust impressions are not a simple sum of the contributing parts, but reflect a “gestalt.” We theoretically locate these findings in frameworks emphasizing the role of fluency, predictive coding, and coherence in social cognition.

Nowadays, the use of wood materials for construction is starting to be reduced because it can cause global warming due to cutting down forests. There are changes in the construction used aluminium materials such as frames and doors. There is an increasing demand for aluminium products which is an opportunity for companies to develop products. Currently the company manufactures aluminium profile products (semi-finished goods), so the company needs to develop aluminium finished goods products to increase profits and brand image. The investment required by the company is 11,232,000,000 rupiah to develop aluminium finished goods products. This research uses financial feasibility study, then selects the best investment financing. Net Present Value (NPV), Profitability Index (PI), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Payback Period (PP), and Return on Investment (ROI) are used as variables for determining investment. There are four financing alternatives, including internal financing, bank, leasing and IPO. The results showed that bank financing provided the highest NPV and ROI with an NPV value of 1,546,356,903, Profitability Index (PI) of 1.14, Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 10.09%, Payback Period of 4 years 1 month, Return on Investment (ROI) of 28.24% and US Index of 4.71. Thus, the results of this research recommend using bank financing for investment in product development.

The research aimed to test students’ attitudes towards the subjects of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, and to examine the associations between those attitudes and students’ learning strategies and grades achieved. The study included 245 eighth-grade students from five schools in Koprivnica-Križevci County in the Republic of Croatia. Attitude scale towards science subjects and Learning strategies scale were employed. The results of the analysis of variance showed a significantly higher assessment of interest for Biology and Physics than for Chemistry, while the assessment of importance for Biology was significantly higher than for Chemistry and Physics. Attitudes toward Biology, Chemistry, and Physics were positively correlated with the grades achieved in those subjects. Results of the mediation analysis indicated that the learning strategies were mediators between the attitude towards the science subject and the grades achieved in those subjects. Students with a more positive attitude towards a subject employ a deeper approach to learning, which ultimately results in a higher grade.
