Thermal Regulation Methods Aimed to Elevate Photovoltaic Panel Performance: A Review
Authors: Öztürk Taha Furkan , Terzi Ümit
Published: January 2025

Commercially used solar modules convert about 14 to 24% of sunlight into electrical energy. The remaining energy is kept in the panels which is converted into heat energy and increases the panel temperature. However, the increase in temperature caused by this input reduces the power output of the solar panel, i.e. in crystalline silicon cells it is about 0.40%/°C. And the resulting thermal stress also reduces the panel life. Therefore, it would be a smart solution to dissipate the heat generated on the photovoltaic system by cooling the panels with various methods in order to reduce the solar panel temperature and increase the module performance. This paper presents a summary study to review the significant researches on improving performance of photovoltaic systems. Among these researches, there are studies aiming to reduce the high operating temperature seen on the solar cell surface and to balance the inhomogeneous heat distribution such as cooling of a PV panel with natural and forced liquid and air, heat pipe, phase change material and thermoelectric module. Besides these studies, researches aiming to make optimum use of sunlight by reducing reflection, pollution and photo-angular effects, which are parameters that have weakening effects on the electrical performance of solar cells, are reviewed as well.

Published: January 2025

Axial misalignment, over-forced and wear of the components that constitute the machine is changed in the sound. It is of critical importance to implement early fault diagnosis and predictive maintenance planning in order to prevent errors caused by machines that break down or fail during operation. In this study, data comprising 15 one-dimensional sequences and 15 two-dimensional images from MFCCs (Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients) for each sound were utilized in CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks). Furthermore, the data used in ML (Machine Learning) models were created by extracting 28 features from various audio characteristics such as amplitude-time, mel-spectrogram, MFCCs, ZCRs (Zero Crossing Rates), and RMS (Root Mean Square) energy. SVM (Support Vector Machine), KNN (K-Nearest Neighbours) and EL (Ensemble Learning), which combines SVM, KNN and RF (Random Forest) models, were utilized. The results indicated that the accuracy rates varied between 76.21% and 99.59%. The EL model exhibited the highest accuracy, correctly predicting all 99 sounds for faulty, 248 sounds out of 249 sounds for slightly faulty and 143 sounds out of 144 sounds for intact. The results indicate that it is possible to diagnose faults in centrifugal pumps and preventing errors. Consequently, economic savings will be achieved by reducing the losses caused by faulty parts and energy loss caused by the decrease in the efficiency of the system when it operates incorrectly will be prevented.
A Novel Approach to Enhancing Active Directory Security in Academic Institutions
Authors: İş Hafzullah
Published: January 2025

This research rigorously investigates the cybersecurity frameworks within academic institutions, emphasizing the pivotal role and security of Active Directory (AD) systems. By conducting an in-depth analysis of AD infrastructures across 12 universities with critical digital environments, this study scrutinizes access control mechanisms, user identity management, and network segmentation strategies. The findings reveal profound security lapses, such as excessive administrative privileges granted to 75% of non-administrative users and the absence of Demilitarized Zones (DMZs) in 80% of the institutions. Additionally, 65% of the institutions exhibited critical vulnerabilities by not integrating public devices, such as printers and laboratory computers, into the AD framework.
The study further highlights the escalating threat of cryptolocker and ransomware attacks, which have increasingly targeted institutions, resulting in significant data encryption and operational disruptions. Moreover, challenges related to the deployment and management of advanced cybersecurity solutions, like CrowdStrike, underscore the complexities in maintaining up-to-date defenses. These issues are compounded by frequent update and upgrade failures, adversely impacting AD health and overall network security.
This paper delineates strategic recommendations to enhance AD security, supported by empirical evidence showing a 92% improvement in defense against cyber attacks upon implementing these measures. The insights garnered from this study are aimed at fortifying the cybersecurity postures of academic institutions, thereby mitigating the escalating threats in the digital landscape.
Fractional Order Adaptive Fixed-Time Sliding Mode Controller for Synchronization of Fractional Order Chaotic Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors
Authors: Bingöl Özhan
Published: January 2025

This paper presents a fractional-order adaptive fixed-time sliding mode controller for the synchronization of chaotic dynamics in permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs). PMSMs, commonly used in electric vehicles, robotics, and aerospace, are prone to chaotic behavior under parameter variations and external disturbances, which can degrade performance and stability. Existing control strategies, such as conventional sliding mode control (SMC) and fractional-order controllers, have limitations, including chattering, slow convergence, and sensitivity to uncertainties. The proposed controller integrates fractional calculus into the sliding mode framework to improve control performance by accounting for the memory effects of PMSM dynamics. The controller ensures fixed-time convergence, guaranteeing that the system reaches the desired state within a fixed-time, regardless of initial conditions. Additionally, an adaptive mechanism adjusts the control parameters online, providing robustness against disturbances and parameter uncertainties. Simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed controller compared to existing methods, showing faster convergence, improved stability, and reduced chattering. The proposed controller proves effective in both synchronization and control scenarios, making it a promising solution for chaotic suppression in PMSMs across various operating conditions.

Authors: Rozenova M.I.
Published: January 2025

The work is aimed at finding technologies to protect professionals from the ever-increasing negative stressors of their life and professional environment. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a short-term anti-stress training program for emergency medical workers. The study participants included employees of several emergency medical teams (n = 30, 73% women, 27% men; age 27–42 years (M = 32.2)) divided into an experimental (n = 15, 80% women, 20% men) and a control (n = 15, 67% women, 33% men) group. The study included two diagnostic measurements of the current state, stress level, and burnout of specialists before and after (10 days later) the anti-stress training program, which included 7 1.5-hour sessions over 14 days. The methods used were: “The scale-thermometer of self-assessment of the current state” (A.O. Prokhorov), Methodology for assessing the dominant state (DS-6 by L.V. Kulikova), Differential diagnostics of states of reduced performance (DORS by A.B. Leonova and S.B. Velichkovskaya), burnout test by K. Maslach (adaptation by Vodopyanova), stress level test by V.Yu. Shcherbatykh (2022 version). The results obtained indicate an improvement in the activity and performance indicators of the participants in anti-stress training, an increase in the subjective value of the activity and their contribution to the profession, a decrease in the level of fatigue, emotional and physiological manifestations of stress. Conclusion: the effectiveness of not only long-term but also short-term anti-stress training has been demonstrated, with a systematic organization of mastering the skills of self-regulation and personal resource growth.
Assessing Predisposition to Unsafe Behavior: Standardization of the Methodology
Authors: Berezina T.N.
Published: January 2025

The work is aimed at studying the connection between value-semantic indicators and the author's technique for modeling extreme situations to assess the respondent's predisposition to commit unsafe acts was standardized. The technique includes two models: “mine” and “bomb”. The model is two sheets of paper (two tracks), behind one of which a conventional explosive is placed, the “mine" is a five-ruble coin, the “bomb” is a lid 8–10 mm high and 68–70 mm in diameter. The subject's task is to walk along the safe sheet without stepping on the sheet hiding the explosive. Four tests are conducted. The following methods were used for standardization: 1) the author's technique for modeling extreme situations; 2) subjective assessment of unsafe behavior; 3) survey of the causes of erroneous reactions; 4) calculation of mathematical statistics: descriptive statistics, Spearman correlation coefficient, Cronbach's alpha. Subjects: psychology students specializing in extreme profiles — 100 people. Result: the method has subjective validity (r = 0.71) and structural reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.52). The average number of steps on a conventional “mine” = 2.1 + 0.89; it corresponds to the mathematical expectation calculated for this model. The average number of steps on a conventional “bomb” = 0.3 + 0.66. We defined the norm as: 0 steps; excess characterizes the presence of a predisposition to unsafe behavior in extreme conditions. Conclusion: it is recommended to use the experimental “bomb” model to assess the respondent's predisposition to unsafe behavior.

Authors: Murashcenkova N.V. , Gritsenko V.V. , Kulesh E.V.
Published: January 2025

Objective. The aim of the study is to verification the hypothesis about the regional specificity of the relationship between the motives of constructing ethnic identity and individual values among Russian high schoolers from the central and far eastern regions of Russia.
Background. Youth are a particularly vulnerable group in situations of permanent uncertainty and atypical crises. It is therefore important to explore the resource potential of different types of social identity and its factors among young people.
Study design. We have conducted a comparative quantitative analysis of the results of the survey of the ethnic majority from the two mono-ethnic Russian regions (in May 2023).
Participants. Russian high schoolers ages 15 to 18 from Smolensk (185 Russians, M = 16,3, SD = 0,48, 59,5% of girls) and Khabarovsk (134 Russians, M = 16,8, SD = 0,72, 67,9% of girls) participated in the study.
Measurements. We used the Scale of Rapid Assessment of Ethnic Identity by N.M. Lebedeva, “Portrait Values Questionnaire” by S.H. Schwarz and author’s items formulated to assess motives of constructing ethnic identity.
Results. Most respondents clearly feel themselves to be members of the Russian ethnic group, but do not see ethnic identity as a significant resource for meeting important needs. The dominant value basis of ethnic identity motives for Russian high schoolers from Smolensk is the Tradition value, and for Russian high schoolers from Khabarovsk – the Achievement value and the Universalism-Nature value.
Conclusions. There is a regional specificity of formation and value bases of construction of the Russian ethnic identity among young members of the ethnic majority in conditions in mono-ethnic environment.

Published: January 2025

BACKGROUND: Anxiety and depressive disorders are the most common mental disorders. Detecting a disorder at an early stage can prevent the development of severe disorders and preserve the patient’s functioning ability. Simple and reliable screening tools based on self-completion of questionnaires can be used for this purpose. However, it is not always the case that the scores of the self-questionnaire align with those of the clinician.
AIM: To estimate the prevalence of anxiety-depressive disorders using the GAD-7 and HADS self-report questionnaires compared to psychiatrist assessment.
METHODS: The study included individuals aged 18 to 65 years, living in Moscow, Russia, without psychiatric disorders, who participated in an online study using the HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, HADS-A and HADS-D) and GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale). Anxiety disorder was diagnosed when the total score was ≥10 on the GAD-7 and/or ≥10 on the HADS-A scale, and depression was defined when the total score was ≥9 on the HADS-D scale. Then, 82 randomly selected participants attended an anonymous consultation with a psychiatrist.
RESULTS: The study included 1,097 individuals (72% female), median age 29 (23; 37) years. As a result of testing, anxiety disorder was found in 168 (15%); depressive disorder — in 152 (14%) respondents. At medical verification, anxiety was diagnosed in 18 (22%); depression — in 19 (23%) people. The sensitivity of the HADS-D subscale for physician-diagnosed cases of depression was 61%, and specificity was 73%. The sensitivity of the HADS-A and GTR-7 subscale in identifying cases of anxiety disorder was 58%, specificity 59%. Sixteen percent were first diagnosed with a personality disorder or schizotypal disorder.
CONCLUSION: The level of anxiety and depression in our sample of the population of Moscow, Russia, was higher than the global level. Self-assessment based on the questionnaire seems to not fully reflect the real state of a patient, as evidenced by the differences with the psychiatrist’s assessment.
Of Black Boys and Haunted Houses: Spectrality and Historical Rewriting in Randall Kenan’s Short Fiction
Authors: Lado-Pazos Vanesa
Published: January 2025

Since the so-called spectral turn of the 1990s, the ghost has been placed at the forefront of critical debates as a conceptual metaphor through which to destabilize the hegemonic discourses and values of modernity. Adopting the theoretical framework of spectrality studies, this paper seeks to interrogate the functions fulfilled by the ghost in “Tell Me, Tell Me” (1992) and “Resurrection Hardware or, Lard and Promises” (2018) by Randall Kenan. The comparative analysis of both narratives will render spectrality as a multi-layered metaphor of great socio-political import that allows for the articulation of transhistorical Black oppression in America and effects a historical revision aimed at the re-inscription of marginalized and silenced voices.
Jane Eyre in Therapy: A Neo-Victorian Perspective on the Literary Classic in “The Mirror” by Francine Prose
Authors: Zygan Julia Maria
Published: January 2025

This paper aims to present Francine Prose’s “The Mirror” (2016) as a neo-Victorian rewriting of Jane Eyre (1847/2014) that subverts the Victorian values and ideals concerning women while simultaneously embracing feminist approach to Charlotte Brontë’s classic. The examination relies upon Gerard Genette’s theory of hypertextuality (1982/1997). Prose’s hypertext revises the “happy ending” of Brontë’s novel, drawing attention to issues previously overlooked in the classic, particularly those involving the manipulation of women. “The Mirror” questions Victorian values and proposes different ones, highlighting the importance of mutual understanding among women and sisterhood.
The Axiological Dimension of Primitive Culture in Mikołaja Doświadczyńskiego przypadki by Ignacy Krasicki
Authors: Timofiejew Artur
Published: January 2025

The article is an analysis of the image of primitive culture created by Ignacy Krasicki, characterized by four features – external hermeticism, inclusive openness, tribalism and illiteracy.Both in terms of postulates of reform of the Polish cultural pattern of the second half of the 18th century hidden under the plot layer, as well as in the adopted method of creating the culture of the Nipuans, Krasicki emphasizes the sphere of “active” values close to the Enlightenment perception of reality;rationality, usefulness, cognitive objectivity and the common good manifesting themselves exclusively in the sphere of praxis are intercultural evidence of “man's emergence from immaturity”.
“[…] always aiming to educate alongside entertainment.” Ekphrasis of Paintings by Klementyna Hoffmanowa née Tańska in the Process of Women's Aesthetic Education in the First Half of the 19th Century
Authors: Zaremba Magdalena
Published: January 2025

The article focusses on ekphrasis in fragments of Memories from a trip to foreign countries. In letters to Helenka T. [Wspomnienia z podróży w obce kraje. W listach do Helenki T.] of Klementyna Hoffmanowa née Tańska. Using the method of inter-artistic analysis of a literary text and an artwork, the author of the article shows the role of paintings in Hoffmanowa’s educational guide for girls at the beginning of the 19th century – not only artistic, but above all an ethical exemplum. In order to disseminate the highest moral values, Tańska-Hoffmanowa added excerpts from the Bible to her synthetic descriptions of the works of Giorgione, Titian and. Ekphrasis composed in this way seems to be a continuation of the tradition of literary journey, periegesis, and apodemics. They remain a special testimony to the aesthetic formation of women in the Romantic period, rhetorical traditions in illustrating descriptions or various influences between the arts.

Authors: Więcek Aleksandra
Published: January 2025

This article constitutes a record of the reading of the poetry book Dymy nad miastem written by Władysław Broniewski in 1926. This article is based on the book materiality. The analysis covers the entirety of the book – poetry, the cover, the fonts, type of paper, even the biography of individual copies. The cover was designed by Mieczysław Szczuka and this fact sets the tone for the interpretation. The photomontage on the cover provokes reflection on socio-political situation of Poland in the interwar period as well as on the place of this poetry book in the discussion on Polish revolutionary poetry in the 20th century.
Latina/o Canadian Literature: The Issues of Migratory Mourning and Bilingualism in Guillermo Verdecchia’s Fronteras Americanas: American Borders (1993) and Carmen Rodríguez’s and a body to remember with (1997)
Authors: Błauciak Hanna
Published: January 2025

Canada comprises a wide variety of people of multifarious ethnic and cultural heritages with immigrants constituting 23% of the entire population (Statistics Canada 2022). Among those groups, Latina/o Canadians are a small but vibrant community whose artistic output is often overlooked. This paper provides a brief overview of the history and characteristics of Latina/o presence and literary output in Canada as well as discusses two Latina/o Canadian texts, namely and a body to remember with (1997), a short story collection by Chilean-Canadian author, Carmen Rodríguez, and Fronteras Americanas: American Borders (1993) by Argentinian-Canadian playwright, Guillermo Verdecchia. The analysis is focused on the discussion of the characters’ migratory mourning, as defined by Joseba Achotegui (2019), which is involved in the formation of immigrants’ hybrid identities as they continually reevaluate their relationship with the host and home country. Additionally, this paper touches upon the textual representations of military trauma that has impacted generations of Latina/o immigrants fleeing dictatorships in the 1970s and 1980s (Hazelton 2007). Finally, this paper investigates the ways in which the Spanish language is employed in the texts. This paper argues that bilingualism underscores Rodríguez’s and Verdecchia’s hybridity and decolonial approach as they undermine the notion of America as a predominantly English-speaking continent dominated by the imperial US.
Contemporary Challenges for Polish Administrative Law Regarding Legal Forms of Public Administration’s Activities: Reflections on the Direction of Change in Developing New Legal Forms of Activity
Authors: Bieś-Srokosz Paulina
Published: January 2025

The article presents scientific research with a national scope on the Polish science of administrative law, specifically examining the current hybrid legal forms of activity. The administrative authority manifests itself through the legal forms used by public administration in performing public tasks. Although there is an increasing trend towards using non-authoritative (hybrid) legal forms, questions arise about their precise legal nature and how best to classify them within existing legal form groups. Redefining legal forms of public administration activity and updating the catalogue with newly created forms thus becomes a contemporary challenge for the science of administrative law. The article examines issues concerning hybrid legal forms of public administration and their direction of change and includes reflections on a perceived disorder not only conceptually but also in terms of classification within the legal forms of public administration, especially regarding new forms that raise questions about their legal nature within the doctrine. The question is also asked about the contemporary challenge for the science of administrative law concerning legal forms of public administration. As a result of the conducted research, a thesis was formulated that Polish science of administrative law faces the task of conducting a comprehensive analysis of all legal forms of public administration in legal circulation and making an appropriate classification. These efforts should serve to redefine the concept of legal forms of activity in public administration and to update their catalogue with new (non-authoritative/hybrid) legal forms.
A Legal-Dogmatic View on Freedom of Expression in Social Networks
Authors: Funta Rastislav , Horváth Marian
Published: January 2025

The freedom of the press and the right to free speech also apply in the digital sphere. Every citizen with Internet access has the ability to easily share and receive information and opinions with a global audience. The hope is that unfiltered free expression and diversity of opinion will lead to more democratic and pluralistic societies. This utopia, however, fails due to humans’ limited information processing capacity. No one is able to take note of all or even a fraction of the opinions and information presented on the Internet, process them and use them as a basis for their own opinions and actions. As a result, the Internet has been “platformized”. Platforms bring together various user groups and frequently create a closed ecosystem of various services and information for them. The purpose of this paper is to provide answers on questions, among other, what lies behind social networks function as information intermediaries and what rights social media users have against the deletion of their posts.

Published: January 2025

Teorias da conspiração podem causar danos reais à sociedade e seus impactos podem ser ainda mais drásticos em circunstâncias de crise, como a pandemia de Covid-19. O trabalho investiga uma amostra de 198 vídeos produzidos por 21 canais brasileiros do YouTube previamente identificados como disseminadores de teorias da conspiração sobre a pandemia. A análise de conteúdo foi adotada como metodologia, utilizando os elementos do lead jornalístico como categorias. As principais teorias encontradas foram “Nova Ordem Mundial”, “Plandemia”, “Big Pharma”, “Perseguição a Bolsonaro” e “Marxismo Cultural”. Denominações ocultas, como “sistema” e “elite”, personalidades, mídia, governo e cientistas destacaram-se como atores. Entre os mecanismos citados nos vídeos sobressaem-se tecnologias como inteligência artificial e 5G e as vacinas contra a Covid-19. A maioria dos canais da amostra permanece ativa, apesar de as políticas de combate à desinformação sobre a Covid-19 terem sido implementadas há três anos pela plataforma. É preciso compreender a dinâmica das teorias da conspiração que circulam em plataformas amplamente utilizadas pela população brasileira para a identificação e o desenvolvimento de abordagens adequadas. Desse modo, o estudo demonstra estratégias consideradas efetivas para a mitigação desse problema e sugere possíveis recortes para futuras pesquisas.
As Redes Sociais Como Veículos de Divulgação Científica para Estudantes de Ensino Médio do Distrito Federal e Entorno
Authors: Soares Jade Cristine , Avanzi Maria Rita
Published: January 2025

A chegada da internet trouxe uma nova forma de veiculação de informações científicas e tecnológicas por meio de sites, blogs e mídias sociais. Esses meios de comunicação podem aproximar o público leigo da comunidade acadêmica, mas eles estão cada vez mais vulneráveis à disseminação de notícias e informações falsas. Esta pesquisa procurou investigar potencialidades e fragilidades da divulgação científica realizada em redes sociais para comunicar assuntos de ciências da natureza para estudantes de Ensino Médio do Distrito Federal e Entorno, por meio de questionários e pesquisa netnográfica. Os estudantes mostraram simpatizar com assuntos relacionados às ciências da natureza, sendo os temas de maior interesse: novas descobertas na ciência, corpo humano e saúde, meio ambiente e ecologia. Os meios de comunicação mais utilizados foram o Youtube, Instagram e a televisão. Mesmo os canais do Youtube mais consumidos serem geralmente conduzidos por especialistas, alguns perfis não explicitam as referências utilizadas para a produção do conteúdo, o que pode interferir na formalização do discurso e legitimação dos conceitos. Apesar de suas fragilidades, a divulgação científica em redes sociais pode ser uma ferramenta efetiva, não só para transmitir conhecimentos científicos, mas também como forma de democratização desse conhecimento, utilizando de diferentes temas e abordagens.
Improving reproductive outcomes in frozen embryo transfer over fresh embryo transfer in women with endometrioma: A historical cohort study
Authors: Pirooznia Parisa , Mashayekhi Mehri , Ghaffari Firouzeh , Jahangiri Nadia , Zolfaghari Zahra , Ahmadi Firoozeh , Hasani Fateme , Narimani Nima
Published: January 2025

Background: Endometrioma, a common manifestation of endometriosis, often indicates the severity of the disease. In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (ET) are key therapeutic strategies for infertility associated with endometriosis. However, the optimal type of ET (frozen or fresh) and its impact on pregnancy success rates remain debated, with limited studies available.
Objective: This historical cohort study aimed to compare fertility and neonatal outcomes, focusing on live birth rate (LBR), clinical pregnancy, and implantation rates in women with endometrioma-associated infertility, between fresh and frozen embryo transfer (FET).
Materials and Methods: In this historical cohort study, the medical records (files) of 289 women diagnosed with endometrioma-related infertility, who underwent in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection treatment at Royan Institute, Tehran, Iran between March 2016–2021 were reviewed. Ultimately, 200 files that met the established criteria were selected for review. The extracted data was then compared between groups: FET (n = 121) and fresh ET (n = 79).
Results: No significant differences were observed between the groups in terms of demographic characteristics and endometrioma size. The only significant difference in fertility outcomes was the LBR, which was 36.4% for the FET group compared to 22.8% for the fresh ET group (p = 0.04). No significant differences were observed in neonatal outcomes between the groups. Overall, our study suggests that FET may lead to higher LBRs in women diagnosed with endometrioma.
 Conclusion: Our study suggests that FET may lead to higher LBRs in women diagnosed with endometrioma.

Background: In infertility clinics, long-time preserving high-quality spermatozoa is a challenging problem.
Objective: The present study aimed to prolong preserving of the human spermatozoa by adding pentoxifylline (PT) and L-carnitine (LC) without using high-cost freezing techniques. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, semen samples of 26 normozoospermia men aged between 28–34 yr, were firstly prepared using the swim-up technique, and each sample was divided into the following 3 aliquots: untreated control group, the LC, and PT-treated groups. The samples were stored for up to 12 days at 4–6°C, and sperm motility was assessed. The percentages of the sperms with double-stranded DNA, apoptotic, and acrosomal interacted sperms were evaluated by sperm chromatin structure assay, AnnexinV-PI staining, and peanut agglutinin, respectively.
Results: On day 7, 26.83% ± 4.26 of sperms were motile in the PT group which was significantly more than LC (6.67% ± 0.61) and control (0.83 ± 0.17) groups (p < 0.001). At day 12, while all sperms lost their motility in LC and control groups, adding PT led to 3.17% ± 0.47 sperms remaining motile (p < 0.001). Moreover, on day 12, the percent of apoptotic sperms in the PT-treated group (8% ± 0.20) was significantly lower than in LC-treated group (5.9% ± 0.28, p = 0.03). None of the additives positively affected the number of sperms with double-stranded DNA (p > 0.05). LC could also maintain acrosomal integrity over a storage time of up to 12 days.
Conclusion: Despite PT’s improved sperm motility, LC was more efficient in preventing apoptosis and acrosomal reactions. However, DNA was resistant to denaturation regardless of the treatments.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was identified in China in late December 2019 and led to a pandemic that resulted in millions of confirmed cases and deaths. The causative agent, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), uses distinct receptors and co-receptors to enter host cells. Vimentin has emerged as a potential co-receptor for SARS-CoV-2 due to the high level of vimentin expression in testis tissue.
Objective: The present study investigated the link between vimentin expression level and SARS-CoV-2-induced orchitis.
Materials and Methods: In this case-control study, testis autopsy samples were collected immediately after the death of both COVID-19 cases and a control group that included individuals who died due to accidental causes. Gene expression and immunohistochemical assays were conducted to evaluate the level of vimentin expression, cell proliferation, and leukocyte infiltration.
 Results: A significant expression of vimentin and infiltration of immune cells (CD68+, CD38+, and CD138+) in the testicular tissue of COVID-19 cases, along with extensive immunoglobulin G precipitation and reduced inhibin expression (p = 0.001) were observed. Additionally, gene expression analysis revealed increased expression of vimentin and decreased expression of the proliferation markers Ki67 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen, suggesting that SARS-CoV-2 may disrupt spermatogenesis through immune responses and the arrest of cell proliferation.
Conclusion: There may be a strong link between vimentin expression and COVID-19-induced orchitis. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings. Considering some limitations, vimentin can be used as a biomarker option for testicular damage following COVID-19-induced orchitis.
THE ROLE OF PROPAGANDA AS A TOOL OF MASS COMMUNICATION IN THE SOVIET UNION IN CRISIS SITUATIONS
Authors: Alrikabi Sajjad Salim Gharid
Published: January 2025

The purpose of the article was a scientific understanding of a number of effective technologies of the Soviet propaganda in the context of the issue of the formation of Russian PR and its continuity with the domestic experience of communication activities. The author substantiates the idea that propaganda with an obvious ideological orientation in the Soviet Union represented a structured systematic work based on the scientific knowledge and having a mass character. The “symbolic elite” played a special role in the process of influencing the mass consciousness, including manipulating it, thanks to its authority, ensuring the effective promotion of the official ideology. Anti-crisis PR in the Soviet Union was concentrated in the space of foreign and domestic policy and was mainly based on “soft power” technologies. At the same time, during military events, the propaganda system, which was given the most important meaning in the policy of the Soviet state, strengthened the techniques of mythologization and symbolization, creating images of leaders, Soviet soldiers and the enemy (respectively, positive and negative). In this case, we can discuss the formation of Spin Doctor technologies. In general, the author of the paper believes that certain technologies of the Soviet propaganda, primarily of a civil and patriotic orientation, were quite effective and can be implemented in modern mass communications with a certain adaptation to the sociopolitical realities of the Russian state.

Authors: Mustafina Ramilya F. , Korolyeva Natalya E. , Ziatdinova Albina M.
Published: January 2025

The article presents a frame modeling of English verbs of true and false information. Verbs of true information include the verbs: confirm, confess, admit, avow, assure, assert, affirm, aver, claim, plead, acknowledge, concede, verify, attest, dispel, maintain, contend, predict, certify, vouch, and verify. Verbs of false information: lie, deceive, deny, debunk, misinform, mislead, misreport, concoct, bluff, controvert, misrepresent, beguile, malign, fib, equivocate, fudge, invent, perjure, snow, profess, trick, fox, fabricate, prevaricate. Frame modeling implies identifying frames and their constituent subframes, with additional components. First of all, verbs of true information form the frame “truth” and, accordingly, verbs of false information form the frame “lie”. As a result of the analysis, the “truth” frame consists of the “truth-confession”, “truth-statement”, “truth-announcement”, and “truth-proof” subframes. The “truth-confession” subframe is characterized by the recognition of the truth, most often reluctantly, and is represented by verbs such as avow, concede, admit, confess, and acknowledge. The “truth-statement” subframe is expressed by the following verbs: aver, assert, affirm, vouch, aver, claim, assure, plead, maintain, verify. The “truth-announcement” subframe is represented in the verbs contend, predict, certify, and avow. The “truth-proof” subframe is formed by the verbs attest, confirm, dispel, verify. The “lie” frame includes the “lie-denial”, “lie-fantasy”, “lieconcealment”, “lie-misinformation”, and “lie-persuasion” subframes. The “lie-negation” subframe: deny, debunk, controvert. The “lie-fantasy” subframe: invent, assume, concoct, fabricate. The “lieconcealment” subframe: deceive, equivocate, snow, prevaricate. The “lie-misinformation”: misinform, misreport, lie, misrepresent, fib, fudge, malign, perjure. The “lie-persuasion” subframe: mislead, beguile, deceive, fox, bluff, trick.
ARTISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT RELIGIOUS CONCEPTS IN THE NOVEL BY M.A. SHOLOKHOV “AND QUIET FLOWS ON DON”
Authors: Chapaeva Lyubov G.
Published: January 2025

The article is devoted to the analysis of the role of the most frequent concepts of the semantic field of religion in the author’s implementation of artistic tasks. It has been revealed that within the framework of an artistic text, not only individual author’s concepts arise that accumulate the imagery of the work, but also general cultural concepts expand their content and acquire new meanings due to the general metaphorical nature of the artistic text. But the specificity of a literary text, in our opinion, lies in the fact that almost any lexeme can acquire conceptual meaning as part of the author’s conceptual sphere. The conceptual sphere of the novel is unusually rich. The article analyzes a small set of lexemes that verbalize the main concept of the thematic group religion from the point of view of their semantics and contextual meanings. Sholokhov showed quite accurately that religion in the life of a Cossack has, rather, an everyday character: observance of familiar formulas, rituals, holidays has little correlation with truly Christian behavior, however, the most lexemes that implement the concept of religion are faith, church, bell tower, bell ringing – play a huge role both in the characterization and attitude of the characters and in the development of the plot, serving as unique markers of the changing artistic picture of the world in the novel.

Authors: Dediukhina Anna G. , Dediukhin Andrey A.
Published: January 2025

This article is devoted to the peculiarities of the names of persons by their professional activity expressed by English borrowings or having in their composition a supporting component of the English origin, in the Russian-speaking Internet space. The work considers the structural and wordformation features and thematic classification of the names of a person by the professional activity in the Russian-speaking Internet space; presents the results of the analysis of the peculiarities of assimilation, linguistic adaptation and the word-formation process of English borrowings, denoting the names of persons by their professional activities in the Russian-speaking Internet space. The scientific novelty of the work is presented in the complex development of the peculiarities of the names of persons by their professional activities in the Russian-speaking Internet space. As a result of the study, 188 names of persons by the professional activity have been identified, which are expressed by English-language borrowings or have a supporting component of the English origin in their composition, 3 thematic classifications of names of persons by the professional activity in the Russian-language Internet space have been identified. To analyze the material under study the following methods have been used in the work: contextual method, in order to establish the features of actualization of the units in the type of text under study; a method of linguopragmatic analysis, which allows us to identify the dependence of the use of various means of expression in the Russian language fund on elements of material and behavioral culture and a descriptive method for identifying the characteristic features of English borrowings in mass media discourse. The relevance of this study is due to the active process of penetration and functioning of English-language vocabulary in the modern Russian language, as well as the high importance of digital and Internet technologies, social networks, the transition of many areas of business from offline to online mode and the need to create new names for person’s professional activity. This work allowed us to come to the conclusion about the productivity of the Russian word-formation models confirming the ability of the Russian language to adapt foreign words and adding new connotations to them. It is proved that by accepting and adapting foreign vocabulary in its lexico-grammatical system, the modern Russian language adapts to such rapid changes in the world very quickly and flexibly. The results of the study can be used in the preparation of reference and study materials.
