MAMLUK MILITARY ELITE IN THE ESCORT OF AL-ASHRAF QAITBAY (ACCORDING TO ABŪ AL-BAQĀʾ IBN AL-JĪʿĀN’S NOTES ON THE SULTAN’S VOYAGE IN 1477–1478)
Authors:   National Research University “Higher School of Economics”, Iliushina M. Yu.
Published: July 2022

In the chronicle “al-Qawl al-Mustaẓraf fī Safar Mawlānā al-Malik al-Ashraf”, Abū al-Baqāʾ Muḥammad ibn Yaḥyá Ibn al-Jīʿān (1443–1497) mentioned seven Mamluk amirs, who escorted the Sultan al-Ashraf Qaitbay in his tour to Syria in 1477–1478. The purpose of the sultan’s journey was to inspect the fortifications in the northern regions of al-Shām. Only few emirs and a small group of Mamluks (about twenty-five warriors) travelled with the Sultan. The article investigates the background of these emirs on the basis of several Arabic sources of the Mamluk period. Four of these seven emirs were married to women from the Sultan’s household. The paper highlights the importance of the in-law relations, which formed a powerful facilitator of an emir’s career advancement. Most of al-Ashraf Qaitbay’s escort were those emirs whose service was somehow connected with the financial sector and who were engaged in replenishing the Sultan’s treasury. They were the second davadar Tanibak Qara, muhtasib Yashbak al-Jamali, wali Yashbak min Haydar, and the governor of Jidda Shahin al-Jamali. The trend associated with the promotion of the emirs-administrators who headed financial departments into the political elite was formed during the reign of Qaitbay and was a new phenomenon in the political life of the Sultanate. The “report” on the trip of the Sultan, compiled by Abū al-Baqāʾ Muḥammad ibn Yaḥyá Ibn al-Jīʿān, showed how important those emirs were for the Sultan who had experience in the financial sphere and could assess not only the condition of the fortifications, but how much money would be needed for their effective protection, and most importantly – to ensure the receipt of these funds to the treasury.
AMBER OR RUBBLE? THE STORY OF THE AMATEUR ASSOCIATION “THE HERMITAGE”
Authors:   The Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts, Gaiduk V. L.
Published: July 2022

An increasing amount of investigations and publications in the sphere of the history of the Soviet underground art signifies the expanded interest to this problem. However the history of the Amateur creative associations in the soviet underground has not received all the attention it deserves yet. The analysis of the Amateur creative associations could deepen our understanding of the soviet art process. Thereby the overall goal of this paper is to analyze the history of the Amateur Association "Hermitage", which was created by L. A. Bazhanov in 1986. To provide greater depth of knowledge about the “Hermitage’s” history the great amount of archival sources will be engaged. Among these sources are materials from Tsalim, Tsaopim, the Hermitage archive Fund, which is stored in THE NCCA, and the Fund of the collector Leonid Talochkin. The Hermitage was one of the first Amateur creative associations that received an official status. During its short existence, members of the Hermitage have held ten large-scale exhibitions in the exhibition hall in Belyaevo. “Retrospec-tion” was considered to be the most provocative “Hermitage’s” exhibition. Cu-rators arranged the exposition according to their vision of Soviet post war art. This exhibition made the Department of culture of the MGK raise the issue of the lack of ideological and methodological control over all Amateur societies. The political authorities made a decision to dissolve “Hermitage”. The “Her-mitage” administration made unsuccessful attempts to formalize its activity un-der the patronage of other organizations (the Union of cinematographers, ZNUI). Finally Hermitage was renamed to Center for Art Culture but in a year its administration run out of money and had to eliminate the organization. It appears from conducted research that the party leadership tried to make rela-tionship with Amateur organization but they were unable to accept the new concept of the Museum and exhibition hall, which was promoted by the participants of the "Hermitage". Moreover the revision of the official Soviet art history during Perestroika stepped out of line.

COVID-19-Infektionen und somit auch deren möglichen Folgen können unter bestimmten Voraussetzungen als Berufskrankheit oder Arbeitsunfall anerkannt werden. Die Symptomatik und Ätiopathogenese von Post-COVID wird derzeit wissenschaftlich kontrovers diskutiert. Dennoch müssen bereits heute Personen mit Post-COVID für die Unfallversicherungsträger begutachtet werden. Daher wurde vom Autorenteam dieses Beitrags ein Vorschlag für eine Begutachtungsempfehlung erarbeitet, um eine standardisierte und damit vereinheitlichte Beurteilung unter Berücksichtigung des Unfallversicherungsrechts zu ermöglichen. Dieser wird hier zur Diskussion gestellt.
Ein besonderes Thema: Berufliche Fußschutzberatung bei Hauterkrankungen an den Füßen (Interview)
Authors:   Institut für interdisziplinäre Dermatologische Prävention und Rehabilitation (iDerm) an der Universität Osnabrück, Brans Richard
Published: July 2022

Hauterkrankungen zählen zu den häufigsten beruflich bedingten Erkrankungen. Besonders häufig sind Kontaktekzeme an den Händen. Diese entstehen dadurch, dass in vielen Berufen die Hände durch manuelle Tätigkeiten besonderen Belastungen wie Feuchtigkeit, hautreizenden Berufsstoffen oder Kontaktallergenen ausgesetzt sind. Aber wie schaut es mit Hauterkrankungen an den Füßen aus? Spielen hierbei auch berufliche Einwirkungen eine Rolle und was kann man dagegen tun? Hierzu führten wir ein Gespräch mit dem Hautarzt Herrn Priv.-Doz. Dr. med. Richard Brans (RB) und der Gesundheitspädagogin Frau Dipl.-Kml. Anja Hübner (AH), die am Institut für interdisziplinäre Dermatologische Prävention und Rehabilitation (iDerm) an der Universität Osnabrück eine bislang bundesweit einmalige Fußschutz- und Fußhygieneberatung für Patientinnen und Patienten mit Anhalt für eine berufsbedingte Hauterkrankung an den Füßen etabliert haben.
Bullying in the Workplace: The Plight of South African Employees
Authors: Calitz Karin
Published: July 2022

This article discusses the prevalence of bullying in South African workplaces as well as the causes and symptoms thereof and the shortcomings in the current protection available to victims. Jurisprudence indicates that in the past victims typically had to rely on the prohibition against harassment in the Employment Equity Act 55 of 1998 (EEA). However, they were often unsuccessful as they could not prove that the bullying took place on a prohibited ground. An analysis of the common law and various other statutes confirms that South African law provides inadequate protection to victims of bullying. A brief overview of measures against bullying in some foreign jurisdictions indicates that bullying is mostly seen as a health and safety concern and that victims do not have to prove that bullying took place on a prohibited ground.
This article also discusses the newly adopted Code of Good Practice on the Prevention and Elimination of Harassment in the Workplace (2022 Code) which endeavours to give effect to the International Labour Organisation's (ILO) Violence and Harassment Convention No 190. The discussion aims to establish whether the 2022 Code will resolve the lacuna in the protection against workplace bullying. The article concludes that this is not the case and recommends that the EEA be amended to define harassment sufficiently wide to include bullying; that the Labour Relations Act 66 of 1995 be amended to provide that an omission by an employer to address harassment (including bullying) could constitute an unfair labour practice; that a national code issued in terms of the Occupational Health and Safety Act 85 of 1993 be adopted to address bullying; and that health and safety legislation be amended to explicitly address bullying in the workplace and provide remedies to victims.
Sviće “Smurf”: Intertextual Linkages in Protests Against Montenegro’s 2019 Freedom of Religion Law
Authors: Zenović Nikolina
Published: July 2022

Elements of traditional folklore and popular culture were invoked in protests opposing the 2019 Zakon o slobodi vjeroispovijesti ili uvjerenja i pravnom položaju vjerskih zajednica [Montenegrin Law on Freedom of Religion or Belief and the Legal Status of Religious Communities], hereafter referred to as the 2019 Freedom of Religion law. The 2019 Freedom of Religion law replaced an older law on religion and caused controversy for its various articles that would thereafter require evidence of church property ownership, without which such properties would transfer into state property. Many people identifying as Serbs in Montenegro protested the updated law to express their concern that holy sites of the Serbian Orthodox Church in Montenegro might become government property under the new law. Protest materials intertextually linked traditional folklore and popular culture characters to the movement. As intertextuality refers to the relationship between two or more texts brought into the same frame, folkloric elements emerged in protests in Montenegro and representations on social media through intertextual linkages. This paper addresses intertextual references made by the hip hop collective Beogradski Sindikat in their song and music video supporting the protests, “Sviće zora” [Dawn Breaks] and people’s recontextualizations of the popular culture figure of Papa Smurf, from the cartoon franchise “the Smurfs,” in Montenegro and abroad. In analyzing such protest materials, I argue that an intertextual approach to protests facilitates understandings of protesters’ meaning-making processes and the semiotic interactions between folklore and protests.

Effect of storage period and relative humidity on the quality of moringa oil
Authors: Akintola Akintunde , Aremu Ademola Kabiru , Ogunlade Clement Adesoji
Published: July 2022

This study investigated the influence of storage period and relative humidity on oil extracted from moringa seed using soxhlet extraction method and stored under controlled relative humidity for 90 days using saturated slurry salt method. Samples were taken after 1, 30, 60 and 90 days and the quality parameters like iodine value (IV), acid value (AV), saponification value (SV) and peroxide value (PV) were obtained and compared to FAO/WHO acceptable standards for edible oil. The obtained results showed that the acid value, peroxide value and saponification value increase as relative humidity increases, ranging from 2.47-3.44mg/g, 1.01-1.21Meq/Kg and 172.13-184.36mg/g, respectively, but still falls within the range stated by FAO/WHO for edible oils (4.00 mg/g, 4.00 Meq/Kg and 181±2.60 mg/g) for acid value, peroxide value and saponification value, respectively. Iodine value decreases as relative humidity increases, ranging from 61.28-71.92 g/100g and falls slightly below the standard given by FAO/WHO for edible oils (80-106 g/100g). It was concluded that moringa oil is stable within a wide range of humidity and will have a longer shelf life due to its very low peroxide level.

El presente artículo tiene como principal objetivo ofrecer una aproximación al papel del sectordel vino en general y al de las denominaciones de origen vinícolas, como exponente de clustera escala territorial, en particular, en relación con la sostenibilidad, partiendo de la limitadainformación cuantitativa detallada disponible a tales efectos y de la información cualitativarecabada de entrevistas a algunas personas altamente cualificadas vinculadas a esta rama deactividad.Con este propósito, el trabajo se ha estructurado en cuatro apartados. En el primero, decarácter introductorio, se destaca la importancia de la industria agroalimentaria (IAA) españolay sus denominaciones de origen, haciendo hincapié en la relevancia del sector vinícola en suseno. En el segundo, se ofrece una caracterización de las principales denominaciones de origenvinícolas, catalogables como sistemas productivos locales (SPLs) o cluster territoriales. En eltercero, se detallan las principales actividades y acciones que, a lo largo de la cadena de valordel sector vitivinícola, tienen favorable incidencia desde el punto de vista de la sostenibilidad.El cuarto y último apartado se dedica al examen de los aspectos más relevantes en torno a lacontribución de las regiones y las denominaciones de origen vinícolas al desarrollo sustentable.El trabajo finaliza con las principales conclusiones extraídas de esos cuatro apartados y una seriede consideraciones finales de interés desde la perspectiva del desarrollo local sostenible. Cabeanticipar , en este sentido, la trascendencia de las DOPs para la España rural – ampliamenteafectada por la despoblación y el envejecimiento demográfico – sobre todo en aquellos territoriosen los que el enoturismo aparece como elemento de diversificación productiva, así como lacreciente vinculación entre el mundo del vino y la sostenibilidad ambiental, especialmentevisible a través de la proliferación de vinos ecológicos y de certificaciones que implican un clarocompromiso con el respeto del medio ambiente, como activo intangible que aporta imagen yprestigio a las bodegas.
Reading Utilitarianism Through TV Series Characters
Authors: KUTLU Mahmut
Published: July 2022

Television series carry the structural traces of the society in which they are produced. The social, cultural and ideological values of the society are revealed to the audience through the characters portrayed on the screen. The TV series discussed in the study are examined as an indicator of social life. The sitcom named "Jet Sosyete", written by Gülse Birsel, is an important production based on utilitarian characters. This sitcom, which reflects the utilitarian attitude in social relations and the utilitarian character that emerges as a result of it, to the screen with an important degree of reality, constitutes an important example of utilitarianism critique. In this direction, the analysis of the TV series, which is considered as the research object, from a sociological perspective was made within the framework of John Stuart Mill's "utilitarianism" theory and Alain Caillé's "criticism of the utilitarian mind". Discourse analysis method was used in the study. The study, which aims to investigate and reveal the utilitarian relations and functioning in the social structure through the discourses in the series, also emphasizes the sad end by emphasizing the fate of utilitarianism.
Effectiveness of various regimens of systemic anti-inflammatory therapy with glucocorticoids in the development of acute LPS-induced lung damage in the experiment
Authors: Salukhov Vladimir V. , Voloshin Nikita I. , Shperling Maxim I.
Published: July 2022

BACKGROUND: When studying new and effective methods of treating acute respiratory distress syndrome, an immunogenic model of lung injury occupies a special place. To date, the search for the optimal strategy and regimen for the use of glucocorticoids in the development of acute respiratory distress syndromе is relevant.
AIM: The article evaluates the effectiveness of various schemes of systemic anti-inflammatory therapy with glucocorticoids in an experimental model of acute LPS-induced lung injury.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was conducted on 100 outbred male rats. Acute lung injury was modeled using an experimental model of direct acute lung injury by a single intratracheal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from the cell wall of the bacterium Salmonella enterica (Sigma-Aldrich) at a dose of LD50 (20 mg/kg). All animals were divided into groups (20 each): 1 intact rats; 2 control group (LPS + saline); 3 LPS + dexamethasone 0.52 mg/kg (small doses); 4 LPS + dexamethasone 1.71 mg/kg (average doses); 5 LPS + dexamethasone 8 mg/kg (high doses). The drugs were administered intraperitoneally once a day for 3 days. Dexamethasone doses were calculated using the interspecies dose transfer method using a factor that takes into account differences in body surface area.
RESULTS: It has been established that an experimental model based on the endotracheal administration of S. enterica leads to the development of mortality from pulmonary causes. According to a preclinical study, the systemic use of low doses of dexamethasone (0.52 mg/kg) was found to be better than higher doses (1.71 mg/kg, 8 mg/kg) in the treatment of acute LPS-induced lung injury.
Characteristics of the metabolic profile and the state of the vascular wall in men with metabolically neutral obesity
Authors: Sokolov Daniil A. , Serdyukov Dmitrii Y.
Published: July 2022

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of overweight in the Russian population is increasing every year. A diet with an excessive amount of easily digestible carbohydrates, low physical activity contribute to the rapid development of obesity at a young age. In Russia, 26% of the male population and 30% of women are overweight. When examining obese patients, the adipokine activity of adipose tissue is not taken into account in daily medical activities. The current concept of metabolically healthy obesity causes certain discussions in the scientific community due to diagnostic difficulties in stratifying overweight patients into metabolically healthy and unhealthy.
AIM: was to characterize the lipid and carbohydrate profile, as well as to evaluate changes in the vascular wall in men with metabolically neutral obesity after a 34-year curation period.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The hospital therapy clinic analyzed the case histories of 93 patients aged 30 to 45 years. The study group of patients was examined twice: initially and 34-years after the initial examination. An anthropometric profile was examined in the designated sample of patients, a study of biochemical blood analysis was performed, and an assessment of the cardiovascular system was carried out.
RESULTS: of the study showed that the metabolically neutral type is characterized by a low frequency of metabolic profile disorders, as well as parameters of the cardiovascular system.
CONCLUSIONS: The probability of developing new cases of prediabetes, type 2 diabetes mellitus and initial atherosclerosis is maximal in patients with previously diagnosed insulin resistance and metabolically healthy obesity, minimal with normal body weight and in patients with metabolically neutral obesity.
Assessment of the state of the cardiovascular system in young and middle-age military men depending on the level of blood serum uric acid
Authors: Shapoval Dmitry S. , Dydyshko Vladislav  T.
Published: July 2022

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of asymptomatic hyperuricemia is about 10%. It is a frequent companion of cardiorenometabolic diseases. Hyperuricemia contributes to systemic inflammation, leads to endothelial dysfunction and impaired renal function. An increase in blood pressure occurs due the to the activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterno system in hyperurecemia. The level of uric acid more than 360 mol/l in women and more than 420 mol/l in men serves as an unfavorable prognosis factor. Increased attention is needed to monitoring uric acid, especially in those with multiple risk factors for the development of cardiovascular disease.
AIM: to study clinical, laboratory and instrumental indicators of the cardiovascular system in men with normouricemia and hyperuricemia to improve prevention.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The clinic analyzed the case histories of 355 patients aged 30 to 50 years. All examined, depending on the level of blood uric acid, were divided into 4 groups: the 1st group (58 people) 299 mol/l, the 2nd (104 people) 300359 mol/l, the 3rd (104 people) 360419 mol/l and the 4th (89 people) 420 mol/l. Clinical, laboratory and instrumental indicators of cardiovascular system, physical performance and hemodynamic response to physical activity according to bicycle ergometry were studied.
RESULTS: It has been established that hyperuricemia is associated with an increase in office and daily BP parameters, an increase in heart rate, R wave amplitude in the AVL lead on the ECG, glycemia, lipidemia, SCORE risk, relative left ventricular wall thickness and left atrial size, and left ventricular diastolic function. The total amount of exercise performed, maximum heart rate and exercise tolerance in people with normal uricemia significantly exceed those in patients with hyperuricemia, and the initial heart rate and peak and blood pressure in the recovery period are significantly higher with hyperuricemia, compared with men with normouricemia.
Method for Estimating the Tripartite Array Back-Azimuth Error Caused by the Far-Field Approximation
Authors: Bregman Yuri , Ben Horin Yochai
Published: July 2022

In recent decades, tripartite arrays (i.e., three-element array) have become an important tool for various seismoacoustic applications, mainly due to their superior back-azimuth estimation. However, the back azimuth is estimated assuming the far-field approximation. Lately, tripartite arrays have been used to monitor microseismicity and aftershocks at distances comparable with the size of the array in which the far-field assumption might not hold. In this work, we determined the validity of the far-field assumption by analyzing the plane-wave errors, that is, the errors of the back azimuth and slowness computations caused by the plane-wave assumption. Computational formulas for estimating the absolute errors, due to the plane-wave assumption, were developed. Several case studies demonstrated that the plane-wave errors are not theoretical issues only and taking them into account can improve the results of field measurements. Proposed practical methods to account for plane-wave errors can improve the performance of arrays aimed to measure low magnitude events such as in induced microseismicity monitoring or on-site inspection.

Human preparedness is a critical aspect of critical infrastructure (CI) cybersecurity. Many efforts, including educational curricula and training programs, have been taken at both national and company level to ensure human preparedness in CI incident response. These efforts are usually based on corporate requirements or external guidelines and policies. However, the best practices recommended for these efforts in the literature differ significantly from the measures implemented in CI companies. For this reason, we compared state of practice in cybersecurity awareness and training in selected CI companies with the recommendations in literature, aiming to identify the areas that CI companies need to increase efforts for further security implementations. Specifically, we conducted interviews (n=7) and sent out questionnaires to cybersecurity personnel (n=11) in different CI sectors of Norway. The collected data were analyzed to establish the commonalities, differences, and areas of concern among the interviewees, with respect to certain critical attributes. All Norwegian companies involved in the study offered some type of awareness or training activities to their employees, but these activities varied greatly in the level of maturity. Besides, we noted several limitations in methods and contents. According to many participants, the team skills, communication skills, and managerial skills were often inadequately developed. Additional limitations in delivery methods were noticed, too. Finally, we suggested the solutions from the best practices in the literature, and pointed out the areas where the literature has not provided effective measures.

From the last few years, the use of social media has increased resulting into the rise of fake news and their spreading on a large scale. Recent political events have increased the spread of fake news. As seen by the widespread impact of the huge beginning of fake news, people are inconsistent in the absence of effective fake news detectors. This work has made an attempt to automate the fake news detection process by employing the logistic regression (LR) and latest and modified word embedding technique. In this paper, we worked on the fake news recognition mechanism for 2 different datasets, viz. dataset comprising online traditional news articles and news collected from a wide range of sources. The results are compared with long short-term memory (LSTM) and traditional machine and deep learning methods for both the datasets. It reveals that the traditional mechanism for attention does not function as expected. With the help of word2vec embedding, we modified the original attention mechanism, which is more effective in dealing with this issue. The proposed method is compared with several outstanding approaches and the results are presented. Our work outperforms these methods in many parameters. This approach has created a framework that captures various fake news indicators and classifies the news as genuine or fake and makes decisions.
Impact of Strategy Optimization on Game-Based CR-MAC Protocol Performance
Authors: Dudhedia Manisha A. , Ravinder Yerram
Published: July 2022

Application of Game Theory in various fields is a new approach to optimize the performance. Many researchers are applying a game theory to wireless network to optimize the network performance. Optimizing the network performance is a critical challenge, especially in wireless networks as there is always a trade-off between energy efficiency and QoS. In this paper, Game based MAC protocol is optimized. Game-based MAC where a node three strategies: small, medium, and large are proposed. However, the number of strategies and interval of strategy are not optimized. Optimizing the number of strategies and interval will help to reduce the delay of the network. The proposed solution has been tested with numerical analysis and supports intuitions. With numerical analysis, it is claimed that game-based MAC reduces the delay and thus boosts the overall performance of the network.
A Stacked Autoencoder and Multilayer Perceptrons for mmWave Beamforming Prediction
Authors: El Mettiti Abderrahmane , Oumsis Mohammed
Published: July 2022

The millimeter-wave frequencies planned for 6G systems present challenges for channel modeling. At these frequencies, surface roughness affects wave propagation and causes severe attenuation of millimeter-wave (mmWave) signals. In general, beamforming techniques compensate for this problem. Analog beamforming has some major advantages over its counterpart, digital beamforming, because it uses low-cost phase shifters for massive MIMO systems compared to digital beamforming that provides more accurate and faster results in determining user signals. However, digital beamforming suffers from high complexity and expensive design, making it unsuitable for mmWave systems. The techniques proposed so far for analog beamforming are often challenging in practice. In this work, we have proposed a deep learning model for analog beams training that helps predict the optimal beam vector. Our model uses an available dataset of 18 base stations, over 1 million users, 60 GHz frequency. The training process first applies a stacked autoencoder to extract the features from the training datasets, and then uses a multilayer perceptron (MLP) to train and predict the optimal beams. Then, the results are evaluated by computing the mean squared error between the expected and predicted beams using the test set. The results show high efficiency compared to the benchmark method, which uses only the MLP for the training process.

Identity documents recognition is far beyond classical optical character recognition problems. Automated ID document recognition systems are tasked not only with the extraction of editable and transferable data but with performing identity validation and preventing fraud, with an increasingly high cost of error. A significant amount of research is directed to the creation of ID analysis systems with a specific focus for a subset of document types, or a particular mode of image acquisition, however, one of the challenges of the modern world is an increasing demand for identity document recognition from a wide variety of image sources, such as scans, photos, or video frames, as well as in a variety of virtually uncontrolled capturing conditions. In this paper, we describe the scope and context of identity document analysis and recognition problem and its challenges; analyze the existing works on implementing ID document recognition systems; and set a task to construct a unified framework for identity document recognition, which would be applicable for different types of image sources and capturing conditions, as well as scalable enough to support large number of identity document types. The aim of the presented framework is to serve as a basis for developing new methods and algorithms for ID document recognition, as well as for far more heavy challenges of identity document forensics, fully automated personal authentication and fraud prevention.
Reversible integer approximation of color space transforms for lossless compression of big color raster data

Published: July 2022

Reversible integer transforms are or great importance for lossless compression algorithms. To perform reversible decorrelation of color channels we propose an algorithm for calculating parameters of a reversible integer transform, which approximates such continuous mappings as a discrete Karunen-Loeve transform. We propose a method for estimating the approximation errors, which makes it possible to choose an optimal approximation of the original transform that minimizes these errors. Using the MRG file format, intended for storing large amounts of integer raster data, as an example, we show that after applying decorrelation, it is possible to increase the compression ratio of multichannel raster images using lossless compression algorithms.
