Authors: Andrievskaya I. A. , Ustinov E. M. , Gassan D. A.
Published: June 2024

Introduction. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are pattern-recognition receptors that are expressed in many immune and non-immune cells, playing a crucial role in the development of inflammation and associated infectious diseases.

Aim. To summarize the knowledge about the role of TLRs and their genetic variations in the development of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection during pregnancy and congenital infection in newborns.

Materials and methods. A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar for relevant studies. A total of 42 English-language articles and a Russian-language article were reviewed, covering a period of 19 years from 2004 to 2023. The search was conducted using the keywords: Toll-like receptors, cytomegalovirus, polymorphisms, intrauterine infection. The potential role of TLRs and their genetic variability in the pathogenesis of CMV infection both in the general population and in pregnant women is demonstrated. Their possible involvement in the development of congenital CMV infection in newborns is also identified.

Conclusion. The results could be used to develop therapeutic targets aimed at potential application for immune correction of inflammation caused by CMV infection.

Results. The paper shows the knowledge on the structure and types of TLRs, revealing the main molecular mechanisms by which the receptors participate in the regulation of the immune system and the development of inflammation during infection.
Potential markers for the diagnosis of heart failure in patients with asthma
Authors: Savich M. B. , Demko I. V. , Sobko E. A. , Khomchenkov R. V.
Published: June 2024

Asthma is a global health problem affecting countries worldwide. Currently, there is an increasing prevalence of patients with asthma who also suffer from concomitant cardiovascular pathology. The most common comorbidity is the coexistence of asthma and chronic heart failure (CHF). Given the overlap in clinical symptoms, differential diagnosis of these diseases at onset can be quite challenging. This raises the question of the possibility of early diagnosis of CHF in patients with asthma and the need to continue searching for etiopathogenic markers, as most laboratory indicators do not have 100% pathognomonic value. An analysis of available literature data on potential CHF markers in patients with a history of asthma was conducted. Information queries included the following set of keywords: "markers of chronic heart failure, bronchial asthma, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP)." It was found that NTproBNP, currently considered the "gold standard" for diagnosing CHF, does not have absolute prognostic value, indicating the need for further search for highly sensitive and more specific markers. The article presents new biological markers, such as the fibrosis marker galectin-3, gamma-glutamyltransferase, growth stimulating factor, pentraxin 3, and tenascin C, which could be used for forecasting and risk stratification of heart failure development. It is concluded that the search for new biological markers would facilitate earlier diagnosis of CHF, thereby enabling timely therapy initiation, which could help reduce hospitalizations and improve the quality of life of patients.
The impact of the lipid peroxidationantioxidant defense system indicators on the quality of life of patients with chronic rhinitis of different phenotypes
Authors: Smirnova O. V. , Goncharova N. S.
Published: June 2024

Introduction. Chronic rhinitis is one of the common ENT diseases characterized by nasal congestion, leading to intermittent hypoxia and, consequently, to a disturbance in the balance of prooxidants and antioxidants in the blood plasma, which may reduce the quality of life of patients.

Aim. To evaluate the impact of the "lipid peroxidation – antioxidant defense" system indicators on the quality of life of patients with chronic rhinitis of different phenotypes, using the SNOT-22 disease outcome assessment test.

Materials and methods. The study groups included 45 patients with chronic allergic rhinitis, 49 patients with chronic vasomotor rhinitis, 32 patients with chronic atrophic rhinitis, 39 patients with chronic infectious rhinitis, and 40 individuals in the control group. Spectrophotometric method in blood plasma determined the indicators of the "lipid peroxidation – antioxidant defense" (LPO-AOD) system: diene conjugates, malondialdehyde, catalase, superoxide dismutase, ceruloplasmin, reduced glutathione, glutathione-S-transferase, glutathione peroxidase, and surveyed using the Russian version of the SNOT-22 questionnaire.

Results. For all patients from the study groups with chronic rhinitis, a decrease in the concentration of antioxidant system components was characteristic. An increase in lipid peroxidation was found in chronic allergic, atrophic, and infectious rhinitis, with the most significant disturbance detected in chronic infectious rhinitis. A total of the highest number of disturbances in the LPO-AOD system was found in patients from the study groups with chronic infectious rhinitis – 7, with chronic atrophic rhinitis – 6, with chronic allergic rhinitis – 5, with chronic vasomotor rhinitis – 3. Patients with chronic rhinitis showed a decrease in quality of life across all compared indicators: physical (in all groups) and psychological (in chronic atrophic rhinitis) health components were impaired. A direct correlation (r=0.83; p=0.001) was established between the quality of life and the number of disturbances in the LPO-AOD system, with the most significant decrease in quality of life found in patients from the study groups with chronic infectious rhinitis with the maximum imbalance in the LPO-AOD system.

Conclusion. The quality of life of patients is an important health indicator that depends on the disease phenotype and the performance of the LPO-AOD system. Identifying potential mechanisms for the formation of quality of life as an indicator with a predominantly subjective character under the conditions of an objectively existing disease presents a promising approach for defining measures aimed at improving the quality of life.
Prácticas artísticas de ámbito est(ético)

Published: June 2024

“El giro social” del arte es un término acuñado por Claire Bishop (2006) para referirse a las tendencias del arte de los años 90 enfocadas en un cambio social constructivo. Sin embargo, varios autores consideran que esta categoría viene pareja a un giro ético en el arte que debilita la potencialidad de lograr cambios y mejoras por medio de las mismas formas estéticas. En este ensayo, proponemos una hibridación entre ética y estética a través de las esferas culturales de Jürgen Habermas y la estética de la liberación de Enrique Dussel.
Además, analizamos dos casos de prácticas artísticas de ámbito est(ético) en el eje México-España: el proyecto de Mejor Vida Corp., de la artista Minerva Cuevas, y la propuesta de Desayuno con Viandantes, del colectivo homónimo, produciendo un glosario final con nuestras conclusiones.

ИМЕНА-ДЕЗИДЕРАТИВЫ В ЧЕЧЕНСКОМ ИМЕНОСЛОВЕ (СТРУКТУРНО-ГРАММАТИЧЕСКАЯ ХАРАКТЕРИСТИКА)
Authors: Алдиева З.А.
Published: June 2024

Процесс формирования антропонимической подсистемы чеченской лексики был длительным и сложным, тесно связанным с историей развития самого чеченского народа. Формирование национальной антропонимии происходило двумя основными способами: онимизацией апеллятивной лексики и заимствованием имен из других языков. Соответственно, в антропонимии выделяются исконный и заимствованный пласты. Исконный фонд характеризовался богатым репертуаром, разнообразием состава, открытостью и подвижностью, что было обусловлено, на наш взгляд, отсутствием канонических ограничений. Именно поэтому первоначальный чеченский именослов отражал окружающий мир во всем его многообразии. Одно из семантических полей антропонимической подсистемы составляют имена-дезидеративы. Эти уникальные языковые единицы образуют особую семантическую и словообразовательную ключевую зону. Мотивирующей основой нередко для них выступают не только имена существительные, но и слова других частей речи: глагол, прилагательное, наречие, причастие, что и обусловило структурно-грамматическое своеобразие этих антропоединиц.

Short- and medium-term forecasting of water levels of the Tobol basin rivers
Authors:   Hydrometeorological Research Center of Russian Federation, Khristoforov A.V.
Published: June 2024

In order to provide the necessary hydrological information for operational decisions on the use of water resources and protecting the population from dangerous floods for the rivers of the Tobol river basin, a methodology for daily forecasting of average daily water levels with a lead time of 1 to 10 days has been developed. The hydrograph extrapolation method was used, which takes into account water levels for the date of the forecast and for the 5 previous days. The methodology was developed for 64 sections located on the Tobol River and its tributaries of various orders. To estimate the parameters of the scheme for obtaining forecasts and their verification, hydrological observation data for the period from 1985 to 2022 were used. For most rivers in the basin, the methodology provides satisfactory results. In general, the accuracy of forecasts and their lead time increase with increasing catchment area. The methodology can be used within an automated system for preparing and issuing forecasts.

Authors:   Perm State University, Bykov A.B. , Vetrov A.L. ,   Perm State University, Kalinin N.A. ,   Perm State University
Published: June 2024

The reasons for the occurrence of a severe heatwave in Krasnoyarsk have been studied, and the accuracy of the forecasts of the WRF-ARW regional model has been assessed. Four episodes of hot weather in 2020, 2021, and 2023 have been analyzed. The heatwave in June 2023 was especially intense and met the criteria for a severe weather event. All examined cases were associated with the intense advection of warm tropical air in the leading edge of the upper-air trough. The formation of the urban heat island has been investigated, and its intensity in the nighttime was found to be 6.5°C. During daytime hours, the heat island was weaker than at nighttime. It has been determined that on the second day of forecasting, the WRF-ARW model accurately reproduces the urban heat island and the impact of the Yenisei River, although it underestimates the predicted amplitude of daily temperature variations. The absolute error in air temperature predictions for the time moments close to the time of daily maximum temperatures was 2.6°C (33 hours of model time).
Printability, Performance and Adaptive Moisture Response: Advanced Hygromorphic materials using synergistic properties of keratin and lignin
Authors: Grigsby Warren James , Scott Sonya , Watson Hosea , Middlewood Paul
Published: June 2024

Developing materials that respond and adapt to external stimuli are of increasing interest in additive manufacturing as their potential to react to triggers can be used as a response required of a user. As biopolymers, keratin and lignin exhibit macromolecular behaviours influenced by moisture and these properties have been evaluated as four dimensional (4D) responsive hygromorphic materials. Through three dimensional (3D) paste keratin-lignin hydrogel deposition, the integrity, mechanical properties and 4D moisture sorption responses of these materials was found to be enhanced by additives including carrageenan, guar gum and calcium chloride. As an example, inclusion of carrageenan and calcium led to greater dynamic vapour moisture sorption behaviours compared to guar gum. While carrageenan acted to improve mechanical properties, combination with calcium led to lower mechanical performance and plasticization of hydrogels. In contrast, the cross-linking provided by calcium ions reduced liquid water sorption and was found to extend sample mechanical performance on water immersion. Inclusion of guar gum improved keratin-lignin hydrogel deposition, but provided minimal enhancements of material properties or moisture responses. Overall, study findings suggest selective combinations of carrageenan and calcium can produce 4D moisture responsive keratin-lignin hydrogels where these resulting adaptative swell or softening behaviours may be used in hygromorphic material applications.

Authors: Huda Sri Nurul , Rismawati Yaswir  , Syofiati
Published: June 2024

Background: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a serious complication of diabetes mellitus with a high risk of infection. Patterns of causative bacteria and antibiotic sensitivity can vary between hospitals and time periods.
Methods: This descriptive research involved all swabs and pus samples from DFU patients at Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang between January and June 2023. Samples were processed through culture, Gram staining, and identification using VITEK 2. Patient medical record data was analyzed for demographic characteristics.
Results: Of the 23 samples, 65% were gram-negative bacteria, dominated by Escherichia coli (30%). Gram-positive bacteria were found in 35%, with Staphylococcus aureus (18%) as the most. E. coli showed resistance to ampicillin and ceftriaxone but was sensitive to meropenem and amikacin. S. aureus is resistant to vancomycin but sensitive to benzylpenicillin.
Conclusion: Gram-negative bacteria, especially E. coli, were more dominant in DFU at Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang during the research period. The pattern of antibiotic resistance found emphasizes the importance of selecting appropriate antibiotic therapy based on sensitivity test results.

Published: June 2024

Agroforestry is gaining grounds among women who have traditionally played important role in agricultural production. Benefits derived from agroforestry has addressed the multiple challenges linked to inadequate arable land, low productivity, socio-cultural barriers among others. This study assessed agroforestry practices of women in Male Headed Households (MHH) and Female Headed Households (FHH), in the Mount Oku Region of Cameroon. Institutional analysis and developmental framework were used to study the conditions for effective agroforestry management strategies. The study: identified farms and crops /trees planted by women in MHHs and FHHs; examined the enabling conditions that favoured agroforestry practices; assessed the benefits before and after agroforestry project as they influence livelihood strategies. Based on the existence of frontline and secondary villages, three Forest Management Institution (FMI) were randomly selected from the tribes that make up the Kilum/ Ijum Forest Project. Selected Participatory Rural Appraisal tools were employed to obtain relevant data. Farms in MHH were from 2 ha and above with more trees for commercial purpose and long-term benefits (timber); while FHH were 2 ha but inclined to indigenous, fast growing trees for subsistence use (firewood, soil fertility improvement, fodder, fruits). The enabling conditions included: access to extension services, improved technology, market information, access to credit facilities and institutional settings; the benefits were: improved agricultural production, increased school attendance and combating child labour, increased employment and end of daily wages, diverse livelihood options, increased household income, sustainable fuelwood production, improve soil fertility, reduced weed incidence. The test of hypotheses revealed that there exist a significant difference in the benefit before and after agroforestry project as they influence livelihood strategies (Z = -35.00, p = 0.000). The study recommended the government, integrates agroforestry in agricultural development programs

Gastroesophageal reflux after per-oral endoscopic myotomy: Management literature
Authors: Tawheed Ahmed , Bahcecioglu Ibrahim Halil , Yalniz Mehmet , El-Kassas Mohamed
Published: June 2024

In this editorial, we respond to a review article by Nabi et al , in which the authors discussed gastroesophageal reflux (GER) following peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). POEM is presently the primary therapeutic option for achalasia, which is both safe and effective. A few adverse effects were documented after POEM, including GER. The diagnostic criteria were not clear enough because approximately 60% of patients have a long acid exposure time, while only 10% experience reflux symptoms. Multiple predictors of high disease incidence have been identified, including old age, female sex, obesity, and a baseline lower esophageal sphincter pressure of less than 45 mmHg. Some technical steps during the procedure, such as a lengthy or full-thickness myotomy, may further enhance the risk. Proton pump inhibitors are currently the first line of treatment. Emerging voices are increasingly advocating for the routine combining of POEM with an endoscopic fundoplication method, such as peroral endoscopic fundoplication or transoral incisionless fundoplication. However, more research is necessary to determine the safety and effectiveness of these procedures in the long term for patients who have undergone them.

Authors: Gräßle Simone , Holzhauer Laura , Wippert Nicolai , Fuhr Olaf , Nieger Martin , Jung Nicole , Bräse Stefan
Published: June 2024

A synthesis route to access triazole–pyrazole hybrids via triazenylpyrazoles was developed. Contrary to existing methods, this route allows the facile N-functionalization of the pyrazole before the attachment of the triazole unit via a copper-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition. The developed methodology was used to synthesize a library of over fifty new multi-substituted pyrazole–triazole hybrids. We also demonstrate a one-pot strategy that renders the isolation of potentially hazardous azides obsolete. In addition, the compatibility of the method with solid-phase synthesis is shown exemplarily.

Optimizing the combination of nitrile-butadiene rubber and styrene-butadiene-styrene for modification of asphaltic pavement
Authors: Farah Najihah Azmani  , Mohamed Mubarak Abdul Wahab  , Syed Ahmad Farhan
Published: June 2024

Modification of asphaltic pavements using nitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) and styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) has been studied in recent years to improve pavement performance and durability while reducing waste from disposal of nitrile gloves. However, in previous studies, the uses of NBR and SBS were evaluated in isolation hence, their use in combination has not been considered. Therefore, in an attempt to use NBR and SBS in combination for modification of asphaltic pavements, hot-mix asphalt (HMA) samples containing varying dosages of NBR and SBS were prepared. Volumetric measurements and Marshall tests were conducted on the samples. Results suggest the incorporation of NBR and SBS at 6 and 5% dosages, respectively, by weight of the bitumen in the HMA, as the optimal combination. The combination led to the highest stability and lowest flow of the HMA, which contribute to the highest increase in stiffness hence highest improvement in strength.

Published: June 2024

This paper investigates the unique temporal insights offered by Vedic Hindu calendars, classified as lunisolar, which inherently accommodate both solar and lunar motions. While contemporary time series analysis predominantly relies on Gregorian (solar) calendars, this study explores the potential advantages of incorporating Hindu calendars. Focusing on the intricate influences of the Sun and Moon on natural phenomena, the research underscores the crucial role of time series analysis in day-to-day applications. The study delves into weather prediction, specifically examining the correlation between paksha (lunar fortnights) and weeks. Through logical and experimental analyses, the paper not only highlights the inherent capabilities of Hindu calendars but also presents a multidimensional approach to weather forecasting by integrating their temporal insights.

Published: June 2024

In recent years, the rapidly changing Arctic with melting ice and new discoveries of rich deposits has increasingly attracted the attention of the state and business. The transition to clean energy stimulates the growing demand for the most important metals, which are rich in the Arctic subsoil. The warming climate in the Arctic greatly facilitates the extraction of important mineral resources and the search for new deposits. The article shows the vital role that the Arctic Zone of Russia (AZRF) currently plays and will play in the future in the production and supply of strategic types of minerals and metals.

The artel is considered as a historically established institution of the Russian economy and society. Its formal and informal features are highlighted, on the basis of which the principles developed by time are formulated, which are applicable in modern conditions. It is shown that these principles can become the basis of relations in individual collectives, organizations, industries, and interstate cooperation, which is interesting for the formation of a new model of the Russian economy.
Federal arctic policy and its municipal dimension
Authors:   Institute of Economic Forecasting, Russian Academy of Sciences, Kuznetsova Olga
Published: June 2024

Preferential business regimes are an important component of the federal Arctic policy. The purpose of the article was to analyze the demand for these regimes among investors in Arctic municipalities and assess whether they contribute to the growth or reduction of inter-municipal differences in the level of socio-economic development (which was measured by the share of social benefits in their amount with taxable monetary incomes of the population). The revealed concentration of residents of preferential regimes in more prosperous municipalities indicates the need for a multi-scale approach in federal Arctic policy
Infinitesimal Modular Group: $q$-Deformed $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ and Witt Algebra
Authors:   Universit&, Thomas Alexander ,   #228,   t Heidelberg, Germany
Published: June 2024

We describe new $q$-deformations of the 3-dimensional Heisenberg algebra, the simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ and the Witt algebra. They are constructed through a realization as differential operators. These operators are related to the modular group and $q$-deformed rational numbers defined by Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko and lead to $q$-deformed Möbius transformations acting on the hyperbolic plane.

We present a sample of 88 candidate z ∼ 8.5–14.5 galaxies selected from the completed NIRCam imaging from the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science survey. These data cover ∼90 arcmin2 (10 NIRCam pointings) in six broadband imaging filters and one medium-band imaging filter. With this sample we confirm at higher confidence early JWST conclusions that bright galaxies in this epoch are more abundant than predicted by most theoretical models. We construct the rest-frame ultraviolet luminosity functions at z ∼ 9, 11, and 14 and show that the space density of bright (M
UV = −20) galaxies changes only modestly from z ∼ 14 to z ∼ 9, compared to a steeper increase from z ∼ 8 to z ∼ 4. While our candidates are photometrically selected, spectroscopic follow-up has now confirmed 13 of them, with only one significant interloper, implying that the fidelity of this sample is high. Successfully explaining the evidence for a flatter evolution in the number densities of UV-bright z > 10 galaxies may thus require changes to the dominant physical processes regulating star formation. While our results indicate that significant variations of dust attenuation with redshift are unlikely to be the dominant factor at these high redshifts, they are consistent with predictions from models that naturally have enhanced star formation efficiency and/or stochasticity. An evolving stellar initial mass function could also bring model predictions into better agreement with our results. Deep spectroscopic follow-up of a large sample of early galaxies can distinguish between these competing scenarios.
Friends Not Foes: Strong Correlation between Inner Super-Earths and Outer Gas Giants
Authors: Bryan Marta L. , Lee Eve J.
Published: June 2024

The connection between outer gas giants and inner super-Earths reflects their formation and evolutionary histories. Past work exploring this link has suggested a tentative positive correlation between these two populations, but these studies have been limited by small sample sizes and in some cases sample biases. Here we take a new look at this connection with a sample of 184 super-Earth systems with publicly available radial velocity data and resolved outer gas giants. We calculate the frequency of outer gas giants (GG) in super-Earth (SE) systems, dividing our sample into metal-rich ([Fe/H] > 0) and metal-poor ([Fe/H]≤0) hosts. We find P(GG∣SE, [Fe/H]>0) =

and P(GG∣SE, [Fe/H]≤0) =

. Comparing these conditional occurrence rates to field giant occurrence rates from Rosenthal et al. (2021), we show that there is a distinct positive correlation between inner super-Earths and outer gas giants for metal-rich host stars at the 2.7σ level, but this correlation disappears for metal-poor systems. We further find that, around metal-rich stars, the GG/SE correlation enhances slightly for systems with giants that are more distant (beyond 3 au), more eccentric (e > 0.2), and/or in multi-gas giant systems. Such trends disappear around metal-poor stars with the exception of systems of multiple giants in which we observe a tentative anti-correlation. Our findings highlight the critical role metallicity (disk solid budget) plays in shaping the overall planetary architecture.
Indefinitely Flat Circular Velocities and the Baryonic Tully–Fisher Relation from Weak Lensing
Authors: Mistele Tobias , McGaugh Stacy , Lelli Federico , Schombert James , Li Pengfei
Published: June 2024

We use a new deprojection formula to infer the gravitational potential around isolated galaxies from weak gravitational lensing. The results imply circular velocity curves that remain flat for hundreds of kiloparsecs, greatly extending the classic result from 21 cm observations. Indeed, there is no clear hint of a decline out to 1 Mpc, well beyond the expected virial radii of dark matter halos. Binning the data by mass reveals a correlation with the flat circular speed that closely agrees with the baryonic Tully–Fisher relation known from kinematic data. These results apply to both early- and late-type galaxies, indicating a common universal behavior.

Authors: Porca-Konjikusic Sanela , Hudson Jr. Paul L. , Jain Harshi Lodha
Published: June 2024

This paper explores the realms of global economic integration by comparing the two prominent international organizations: the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and Brazil, Russia, India, China, and the South Africa bloc (BRICS) and new entrants to BRICS Plus. The study examines the shared objectives, divergent approaches, and potential complementarity of these organizations. By analyzing their economic diversity, regional and global initiatives, and trade agreements, the research investigates the question of collaboration between BRICS and ASEAN organizations. This research finds a variety of economic disparities among members of both ASEAN and BRICS, a variety of investment patterns, economic policies, population and labor force dynamics, net portfolio investments, and capital flows. The paper provides a nuanced holistic analysis of ASEAN and BRICS. This article offers a unique, holistic analysis, comparing and contrasting ASEAN and BRICS countries and the nature of these two organizations. This paper includes policy recommendations related to fostering collaboration between nations in various aspects of their economies, and areas in which countries may strengthen financial ties. Knowledge of BRICS, BRICS Plus, and ASEAN gained through reading this article may enable them to decide on strategies to avoid trade barriers and may also enable them to identify countries with growth areas in various economic sectors.
