Authors: Inacio Isabel , Fonseca Liliana , Amado Ana , Benido Vania , Ribeiro Isabel , Dores Jorge , Amaral Claudia , Cardoso Maria Helena
Published: April 2022

Objective. Micromegaly describes a subgroup of patients with clinically evident acromegaly and elevated insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) with apparently normal basal growth hormone (bGH) and often a glucose-suppressed growth hormone (GH) of <1 ng/mL at diagnosis. It is controversial whether this condition is a distinct clinical entity or a classic acromegaly in early stages. The aim of the present article was to characterize the prevalence, clinical and biochemical characteristics, and therapeutic outcomes of micromegaly.

Methods. A retrospective study of patients with an acromegaly followed ≥1 year at a tertiary center from 1995 to 2019. Patients without IGF-I or GH measurements at diagnosis were excluded. At diagnosis, bGH was considered normal if <2 ng/mL.

Results. From 74 patients with acromegaly, 6 (8.1%) had normal bGH levels. There was no difference in the gender distribution, median diagnostic delay, and follow-up time between patients with normal bGH and elevated bGH. Patients with normal bGH were significantly older at time of the first acromegalic manifestation and diagnosis they had significantly lower nadir post-glucose GH and IGF-I levels, and tended to have a higher prevalence of obesity than patients with the elevated bGH. The frequency of acromegalic symptoms, signs, and other comorbidities than obesity was similar between groups. Five patients (83.3%) with normal bGH presented microadenomas. Post-operative remission and outcomes at last visit were comparable between patients with or without normal bGH.

Conclusions. Normal bGH acromegaly is relatively uncommon in our patients. These patients showed differentiating characteristics from the classical acromegaly with elevated bGH. Further studies are needed to extend the knowledge about its clinical behavior, therapeutic outcomes, morbidity, and mortality.

Objective. The aim of the present study was to clarify the endothelial function biomarkers and carotid “intima media” thickness (IMT) changes in relation to GNB3 (rs5443) and NOS3 (rs2070744) genes polymorphism in the essential arterial hypertension (EAH).

Methods. One-hundred EAH patients (48 – control) participated in the case-control study. Soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule (sVCAM-1), total NO metabolites (NO2
–+NO3
–), transcriptional activity of NOS3 gene, endothelium-dependent flow-mediated dilation of the brachial artery (FMD BA), and carotid IMT were studied. GNB3 (rs5443) and NOS3 (rs2070744) genotyping was performed by TaqMan probes (CFX96™Real-Time PCR).

Results. The connection of NOS3 (rs2070744) with decreased total NO metabolites (F=71.11; p<0.001), reduced NOS3 genes transcription activity (F=8.71; p<0.001) and increased sVCAM-1 (F=6.96; p=0.002), especially in the C-allele carriers (particularly in CC-genotype patients with lower NO – 16.46% and 40.88%; p<0.001), lowered the transcription activity of NOS3 gene – 46.03% 7 times (p<0.001), and become higher sVCAM-1 – 35.48% and 89.48% (p<0.001), respectively. ANOVA did not confirm the association of GNB3 (rs5443) gene with endothelial function and carotid IMT. Severe EAH was associated with increased carotid IMT – 50.0% (p<0.001) and 57.14% (p=0.007), wider carotid arteries – 17.36% (p=0.012) and 21.79% (p=0.004), and decreased NOS3 genes transcription activity – 34.54% (p=0.003). Atherosclerotic plaques were unilateral – 24.77% (χ2=5.35; p=0.021) or bilateral – 27.62% (χ2=5.79; p=0.016). IMT---gt---0.9 mm was followed by a higher BP (p<0.001), FMD BA 11.80% decrease with compensatory increase in carotid arteries diameters – 17.38% and 21.99% (p<0.001) and sVCAM-1 by 20.49% (p=0.005).

Conclusion.
NOS3 (rs2070744), but not GNB3 (rs5443), gene associated with the essential arterial hypertension severity relying upon the endothelial function impairment and NOS3 genes reduced transcription activity.

Objective. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are able to cross the blood-brain barrier, penetrate through the cell membrane, and accumulate in the cell nucleus, which purposefully allows their use in the health sciences as imaging probes and drug carriers in the cancer therapy. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of low doses of SWCNTs on the expression of microRNAs associated with the cell proliferation and the brain development in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos.

Methods. The zebrafish embryos (72 h post fertilization) were exposed to low doses of SWCNTs (2 and 8 ng/ml of medium) for 24 or 72 h. The microRNAs (miR-19, miR-21, miR-96, miR-143, miR-145, miR-182, and miR-206) expression levels were measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis.

Results. It was found that low doses of SWCNTs elicited dysregulation in the expression of numerous cell proliferation and brain development-related microRNAs (miR-19, miR-21, miR-96, miR-143, miR-145, miR-182, and miR-206) in dose- (2 and 8 ng/ml of medium) as well as malformations in the zebrafish embryos brain development in a time-dependent (24 and 72 h) manner.

Conclusion. Taken together, the present data indicate that the low doses of SWCNTs disturbed the genome functions and reduced the miR-19, miR-21, miR-96, miR-143, miR-145, miR-182, and miR-206 expression levels in dose- and time-dependent manners and interrupted the brain development in the zebrafish embryos indicating for both the genotoxic and the neurotoxic interventions.
Fintech, Risk-Based Thinking and Cyber Risk
Authors: Vučinić Milena , Luburić Radoica
Published: April 2022

Financial technology innovations (Fintech) are changing the provision of traditional financial services. Although they bring with them various benefits and opportunities, they also have weaknesses and pose potential threats to financial systems. The paper examines the latest developments in the area of Fintech and outlines the potential benefits and associated risks. It highlights the vital role of the monetary authorities in the context of the policies and initiatives required in order to modernize the financial system, including research and the potential issuance of central bank digital currency, while simultaneously fulfilling their core objectives of preserving monetary and financial stability. The authors highlight the importance of artificial intelligence in Fintech development. They create a Fintech SWOT to support and analyse the above. It goes on further to explain the new management concept of “Risk-based thinking” as a way to approach these potential opportunities and threats of Fintech. Finally, the paper looks at cyber risk in the Fintech landscape as the latest and potentially greatest threat springing from these turbulent and uncertain times.
Evaluating the Role of the Exchange Rate in Monetary Policy Reaction Function of Advanced and Emerging Market Economies
Authors: Fabris Nikola , Lazić Milena
Published: April 2022

The subject of this paper is the evaluation of monetary policy reaction function on panel data of 37 world economies, both advanced and emerging markets, during the period of 1995Q1 – 2018Q3. The paper aims to evaluate the role and importance of the exchange rate in monetary policy reaction function depending on the level of economic development. For this purpose, a relevant set of unbalanced panel data was formed with a balanced relationship between developed and emerging market economies. The methodology of empirical research is based on the econometric assessment of monetary policy reaction function within which the central bank adjusts its key policy rate to the dynamics of inflation, output gap and fluctuations of the real effective exchange rate. The research results confirm the hypothesis that the exchange rate represents a statistically significant variable only in the monetary policy reaction function of emerging market economies. In contrast, adequate specification of developed economies’ monetary policy rule includes only standard macroeconomic fundamentals – inflation and output gap.
How Do Bank-Specific Factors Impact Non-Performing Loans: Evidence from G20 Countries
Authors: Erdas Mehmet Levent , Ezanoglu Zeynep
Published: April 2022

Banking is important for the stability and success of the economy. The success of the banking system on financial intermediation in developing countries is directly affected by non-performing loans (NPLs). Many factors can be treated as NPL determinants. Accordingly, the factors that explain NPLs contain very important information for banks. To this end, the study is an attempt to examine various banking factors that affect NPLs with respect to developing economies. In this study, the bank-specific and macroeconomic factors affecting the NPL rates were analysed through the dynamic panel data analysis. Analyses were made using described G20 countries between 1998 and 2017. The results indicate that the lagged value of NPLs, return on equity, credit growth and credit costs have a significant positive relationship with NPLs, while capital adequacy and GDP have a negative association with NPLs. The results confirm that if the bank-specific conditions change, the credit quality and bank management of banks are affected. It was concluded that the performance of banks is responsive to an effective loan monitoring policy. The findings of the study have implications for policymakers and regulators in the banking sector.

Authors: Hamad Siddig H. , Al Saikhan Mohamed , Babeker Mohamed
Published: April 2022

A system for the extraction, filtration, and concentration of date fruit syrup was developed. The syrup was first extracted under 1000 mbar and under partial vacuums of −1.8, −2.8, and −5.5 mbar in an extractor developed by the authors, then filtered using a filtration ladder of 1.0, 0.25, 0.112, and 0.011-mm pore sizes and finally concentrated to the product known as a dip in the Arab world. The concentration of the syrup to dip was done in a rotary evaporator at 50 °C and 180 rpm for 9–11 hours and under direct sun rays at approximately 48 °C, placed in stainless steel trays (61 × 46 × 5 cm) for 4 hours (12:30–4:30 p.m. The quality of dip produced under sun evaporation was compared to that of a commercial one collected from the markets in Saudi Arabia and was found to be superior due to two decisive criteria, namely color (the appearance) and pH (the taste), and also in terms of other nutritional components.
UBI in Times of Crisis: The Net Basic Income Discussing the Case of Germany
Authors: Neumärker Bernhard , Blum Bianca , Yalcin Burhan , Yalcin Sema
Published: April 2022

The measures taken to contain the Covid-19 pandemic have resulted in, among other things, massive loss of earnings. Many people are therefore increasingly experiencing an income crisis in addition to the acute health crisis. Permanent existential insecurity remains for too many despite the numerous aid packages. The principle of need-based assistance and the determination of need for the provision of aid are proving to be insufficient. In the current crisis, earned incomes are affected most of all due to the measures taken. This leads to an asymmetric distribution of the crisis-induced burdens and thus to an asymmetric distribution of risks and burdens between performance-related and non-performance-related income, which exacerbates the redistribution in favor of capital income. The model of net basic income (NBI) shows one way to come to a solution of these problems in the crisis. Every adult person in Germany receives a monthly unconditional basic income of e.g. 550 Euros (calculated in this approach) during the crisis period. This amount is supplemented by the suspension of rent, lease, repayment and interest obligations during this period of income loss. The amount of money paid to each person is the net share of the crisis basic income. The household savings from suspending rent, lease, principal, and interest payments is the gross. After the crisis, the NBI can be raised to a full participatory UBI as economic momentum increases. In step with this, rental, lease and capital services are to be paid again in full contract amount.
Der Wert der Arbeit: Theologische und sozialethische Überlegungen zum Bedingungslosen Grundeinkommen
Authors: Seubert Harald
Published: April 2022

In this paper I start from the biblical justification of the value and dignity of work (I), which is unique in the entire ancient world. At the same time, it leads to an overall biblical clarification of the image of man, so that man, who was expelled from paradise, is at the same time appreciated in his participation in the cultivation of the earth (I.1). The consequences for a Christian work ethic up to the Catholic Social Teaching (I.5) are explained, as is the decline of this understanding of work in the course of industrialisation and unleashed capitalism (I.4.). In the second part, the Unconditional Basic Income (II) is explicated in its multifactorial affinities, economically, legal-theoretically, socio-philosophically and in view of the global world situation. Finally (III), a summary is drawn that outlines alternative forms of the UBI in the world of work.
Allergic diseases in adolescents
Authors: Bayram Ali , Muluk Nuray Bayar , Cingi Cemal
Published: April 2022

OBJECTIVES. We reviewed the literature on allergic disorders during adolescence.

MATERIAL AND METHODS. The Pubmed, Google, Google Scholar and Proquest Central databases were used with search terms: adolescent, teenager, allergic rhinitis, asthma, atopic dermatitis and food allergy.

RESULTS. Children with a proven allergy have a risk for developing another allergic disorder that is 8-fold higher compared to normal and approaching 7-fold for asthma. The age at which allergy is diagnosed in childhood has a powerful bearing on whether allergic disorders or asthma develop in adolescence. Atopic response severity in a patient during childhood predicts the severity of allergic asthma as an adult. Patients may become asthmatic as adolescents, probably due to a late presentation of allergic disease, or as the presenting complaint for the triad of intrinsic asthma, nasal polyp formation and aspirin intolerance (so-called Samter triad). Allergic eczema (Atopic dermatitis) carries on into their adolescent years in between 10 and 20% of children. Food allergy (FA) is more frequently noted in childhood and adolescence than in adulthood. For the most part, symptoms were attributable to pollen-associated FA and of mild severity. Being hypersensitive to food for non-allergic reasons was rarer.

CONCLUSION. Allergic rhinitis represents a significant risk factor for becoming asthmatic, whether in childhood, adolescence or adulthood. Atopic dermatitis and food allergy are also frequent conditions during adolescence. Pollen-associated FA constitutes an important part of the food allergy. Furthermore, food allergy may be the leading trigger for anaphylaxis. Common associations/comorbidities of atopic dermatitis reported are other atopic conditions such as food allergies, asthma and allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis.

Authors: Mohan Sindu , Thejas Saai Ram , Murali Preethi , Prakash Siva
Published: April 2022

OBJECTIVE. To compare the outcomes of Intranasal Antrostomy (INA) with Nasoantral Window-Plasty and endoscopic Middle Meatal Antrostomy (MMA) in patients with isolated chronic maxillary sinusitis using an elaborate and detailed set of parameters.

MATERIAL AND METHODS. All patients with clinically diagnosed chronic maxillary rhinosinusitis (unilateral/bilateral) were assessed based on radiological (Lund-Mackay Scoring System) and endoscopic evidence (Lund-Kennedy Scoring System). The Visual Analogue Scale was used to understand the severity of symptoms. Strict inclusion and exclusion criteria were used. One hundred patients were included in the study and divided into two equal groups of fifty each. Group 1 of patients underwent Intranasal Antrostomy with Nasoantral Window-Plasty and Group 2 underwent endoscopic Middle Meatal Antrostomy. All the surgeries were done in the same environment, under local anaesthesia and by the same surgeon. The parameters were noted before surgery and 8 weeks after surgery.

RESULTS. MMA did about 6.82% better than INA in relieving symptoms, had 1.08% better CT image and 4.58% better in regards of nasal endoscopy findings.

CONCLUSION. Although endoscopic Middle Meatal Antrostomy is a newer and more non-invasive procedure, the age-old Intranasal Antrostomy with Nasoantral Window-Plasty is still relevant in the management of chronic maxillary sinusitis in this modern age in our rural area.

Di balik kepopuleran film Dilan 1990, ternyata hal ini memunculkan polemik pada warga terkait adegan kekerasan dalam film. Salah satu wujud kekerasan yang ditampilkan adalah dalam bentuk aksi teror yang dilakukan oleh geng motor. Riset ini bertujuan untuk mengenali bagaimana bentuk-bentuk aksi teror yang ada dalam film Dilan 1990 dan hubungannya dengan definisi terorisme yang ada. Guna menggapai tujuan riset ini, penulis memakai pendekatan kualitatif dengan analisis semiotika John Fiske bersumber pada tiga tingkatan, yakni tingkatan realitas, tingkatan representasi, dan tingkatan ideologi. Hasil riset menampilkan bahwa ada dua adegan dalam film Dilan 1990 yang dikategorikan sebagai adegan teror. Ciri pada tataran realitas ditunjukkan lewat kode penampilan, kostum, lingkungan, perilaku, cara berbicara, dan ekspresi. Pada tataran representasi ditunjukkan melalui kode kamera, musik, revisi, suara, narasi, kepribadian, aksi, dan konflik. Sementara itu, pada tataran ideologis, adegan teror dalam film Dilan 1990 merepresentasikan terorisme. Dilan 1990 is a film based on a novel titled Dilan: Dia adalah Dilanku 1990.  The genre of the film is romantic and it became one of the phenomenal films in 2018.

Published: April 2022

Film dokumenter potret Rhythm of Saman ini bercerita tentang Joel Tampeng yang mencoba kembali pada kebudayaan asalnya, yaitu Saman, setelah lama merantau di Yogyakarta sebagai seorang musisi rock. Hal ini bermula dari keprihatinannya terhadap Saman yang menjadi warisan budaya tak benda yang memerlukan perlindungan mendesak (UNESCO). Warisan budaya tak benda bisa disebut dengan intangible cultural heritage, bersifat tak dapat dipegang seperti musik dan tari. Joel Tampeng membentuk komunitas Gayagayo di Yogyakarta bersama para mahasiswa dari Gayo dan mencoba untuk menggabungkan musik rock dan seni tradisi Saman yang kemudian menghasilkan komposisi Rhythm of Saman dengan misi mengenalkan kembali Saman. Metode penciptaan film dokumenter Rhythm of Saman yang digunakan adalah riset dan pengembangan, praproduksi, produksi, dan pascaproduksi yang kemudian didistribusikan melalui Youtube. Bentuk dan tema dokumenter ini bisa menjadi inspirasi bagi filmaker dan masyarakat yang lebih luas. This portrait documentary tells the story of Joel Tampeng who tries to return to his original culture, namely Saman, after a long time wandering in Yogyakarta as a rock musician. It is all initiated by his concern for Saman which is an intangible cultural heritage that requires urgent protection (UNESCO). Intangible cultural heritage can be called intangible cultural heritage because we cannot touch it , such as music, dance and so on. Joel Tampeng formed the Gayagayo community in Yogyakarta with students from Gayo and tried to combine rock music and traditional Saman art to produce the composition of Rhythm of Saman with the mission of reintroducing Saman. The method used to create the documentary film "Rhythm of Saman” was a research and its development, pre-production, production and post-production which was then distributed via Youtube.

Mood Cues Dalam Film Kartini: Hubungan Antara Pergerakan Kamera Dan Emosi
Authors: Sintowoko Dyah Ayu Wiwid
Published: April 2022

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis bagaimana mood cues dalam film Kartini dengan menggunakan pendekatan teori film, pergerakan kamera, dan mood setting. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif analitis dengan pendekatan studi literatur film. Studi literatur film berupa teori teknik sinematik khususnya pergerakan kamera, yaitu long tracking shot, overhead long shot, dan zoom in yang mendominasi film ini. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan empat poin utama. Pertama, teknik pengambilan gambar long tracking shot tampak kurang menunjukkan mood cues empathy kepada penonton karena kurangnya detail ekspresi wajah tokoh utama. Hal ini menyebabkan kurangnya ambivalen pada adegan terjebaknya Kartini pada aturan Jawa yang masih mendeskreditkan posisi perempuan lebih rendah daripada laki-laki. Kedua, mood setting film Kartini tampak diciptakan dengan gabungan unsur mise-en-scene termasuk kostum, properti, set, colour, dan kombinasi musik etnis dengan setting tahun 1800-an. Ketiga, overhead long shot dengan kemiringan 90° tampak menunjukkan kesan “kebenaran”, “harapan”, sekaligus emosi yang kompleks. Keempat, zoom in tampak menunjukkan empathy kepada penonton yang didukung dengan slow motion. Narasi penolakan dan camera movement menunjukkan emosi Kartini terhadap hak perempuan. Keempat teknik tersebut mendukung ambivalen emosi yang kompleks dan menunjukkan metafora emansipasi perempuan.

Situasi pandemi dapat disikapi sebagai salah satu tantangan untuk pengembangan kreativitas sehingga aktivitas berkesenian tetap bisa berjalan dengan baik. Salah satu di antaranya adalah dengan penerapan teknologi digital dalam berkarya seni rupa seperti yang ditunjukkan dalam pameran seni rupa yang bertajuk “Light Weekend”. Kegiatan pameran yang diselenggarakan pada saat pandemi Covid-19 ini menjadi tantangan tersendiri untuk mengembangkan kreativitas melalui penerapan teknologi digital sesuai dengan gagasan dari setiap peserta. Penerapan teknologi digital dalam berkarya seni rupa tentu tidak hanya persoalan teknik penciptaan, tetapi juga sangat berkaitan dengan problem estetika dan kompleksitas digitalisasi itu sendiri. Penulis menggunakan metode etnografi yang fokus pada kajian terhadap pengalaman proses berkarya seni rupa dalam bentuk wawancara terhadap peserta pameran guna menelusuri relasi antara potensi teknologi digital dan problem estetika yang ditawarkan. Melalui pendekatan semiotika, ditelusuri relasi antara potensi teknologi digital dengan problem estetika yang ditawarkan. Dengan demikian, kekayaan unsur estetik yang tercipta melalui teknologi digital dapat menjadi salah satu alternatif bentuk kreativitas yang dikembangkan pascapandemi Covid-19.  During the COVID-19 pandemic, activities in various fields are still being strived to continue with work patterns and governance adapted to the pandemic situation. In the field of fine arts, the pandemic situation can be considered as one of the challenges for the development of creativity so that artistic activities can still run well. One of them is the application of digital technology in creating visual art as shown in the art exhibition entitled "Light Weekend" The exhibition, which was held during the COVID-19 pandemic, was a challenge in itself to develop creativity through the application of digital technology following the ideas of each participant. The application of digital technology in creating fine art is certainly not only a matter of creation technique but is also closely related to aesthetic problems and the complexity of digitalization itself. Through an ethnographic approach, some of the works in this exhibition are exploring how the uniqueness of artistic experience and the relationship between the potential of digital technology and the aesthetic problems offered. Thus, the wealth of aesthetic elements created through digital technology can be an alternative form of creativity developed after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Authors: Ardana I Ketut Ketut , Consentta Maria Goretti Indah Della
Published: April 2022

Aesthetics has an important role in determining the weight of karawitan. Aesthetics can also justify the creation of a composition. Naturally, if in the assessment of composition is always influenced by aesthetic factors to determine the high and low value of karawitan. However, aesthetic perspective also needs to be a reference to show the renewal of a karawitan. It's a form of creativity in art. One of the conceptions that can give aesthetic harmony in karawitan composition is the concept of tri mandala. Tri mandala is a three-dimensional philosophical concept of harmony that is usually a reference in the field of architecture to build sacred places, residences, and even traditional markets in Bali. Through the concept of Tri mandala, a karawitan harmony system that was originally oriented to the second dimension became developed into the third dimension. Therefore, the topic of tri mandala aesthetics in pasupati composition needs to be researched so that it can result in a new aesthetic point of view in karawitan. This topic is a type of qualitative research that is studied with several stages, namely: observation, consoralization, composite realization. The results showed that tri mandala renews the aesthetic value of a karawitan composition. The renewal is represented in a system of harmony, structure, and meaning. The connection of the three with the tri mandala is the third dimension. Everything refers to the power of three, the harmony of three, part three, and the meaning of three in the symbolization of the three realms namely, bhur, bwah, and swah.

Культурная трансформация на Верхней Волге в раннем железном веке
Authors: Новиков Александр Викторович
Published: April 2022

В статье поднимаются вопросы, касающиеся взаимодействия двух крупнейших культурных областей раннего железного века в Верхневолжском бассейне — АКИО и сетчатой керамики. В VI в. до н. э. на берегах Верхней Волги появляется высокомобильное население ВВК АКИО, культурный импульс которого на западе региона фиксируется в бассейне рек Мологи и Шексны. Контакты носителей ананьинских традиций ВВК с текстильным миром приводят к появлению на поселениях гибридной керамики. В результате культурных изменений сформировалось население, сочетающее в своей материальной культуре местные (сетчатые) и ананьинские черты. Социокультурная трансформация в Верхневолжском регионе завершается к V в. до н. э., и на поселениях распространяется гибридная посуда «типа Ватажка», «мода» на которую не проходит вплоть до III/II в. до н. э., когда традиция орнаментации керамики шнуровыми оттисками заметно упрощается и исчезает совсем. Сильно укоренившийся на Верхней Волге обычай декорирования керамики сетчатыми отпечатками доживает и до рубежа тысячелетий, вполне вероятно, и начала I тыс. н. э. Статья также вводит в научный оборот материалы новых памятников с керамикой ВВК АКИО и сетчатой, к настоящему времени это одни из самых западных известных поселений с гибридными керамическими комплексами в Верхневолжском бассейне (Еськи, Бежецк, Череповецкое, Нифантово II, III, «Дом охотника 1»), и представляющих большое значение для оценки культурной обстановки в регионе.

Статья представляет собой публикацию коллекции раннего железного века, происходящей из раскопок поселения у с. Красносамарское. Памятник расположен в лесостепной зоне на правобережье р. Самара и представляет собой многослойное поселение, основной культурный слой которого относится к развитому этапу срубной культуры. В коллекции раннего железного века представлены наконечник стрелы и фрагменты трех сосудов, покрытых «рогожными» отпечатками. Керамика исследована с точки зрения морфологии, технологии, орнаментики, а также состава теста. Атрибуция наконечника стрелы и анализ морфологических, технологических и орнаментальных признаков керамики позволяют датировать коллекцию раннего железного века поселения Красносамарское периодом с конца VII до IV вв. до н.э.. Вероятно, материалы с поселения у с. Красносамарское могут внести сомнения в традиционную датировку городецких комплексов Самарского Поволжья IV – I вв. до н.э.
