L’écofiscalité comme outil de résilience et d’adaptation aux changements climatiques
Authors: Meloche Jean-Philippe
Published: October 2023

Existe-t-il des mesures d’écofiscalité qui peuvent contribuer à la protection des espaces naturels sur le territoire des Basses-terres du Saint-Laurent et ainsi, améliorer la résilience et l’adaptation aux changements climatiques et la préservation des habitats des espèces fauniques et floristiques à statut précaire ? Pour répondre à cette question, une étude CIRANO (Meloche et al., 2023) propose et analyse deux outils d’écofiscalité fondés sur l’empreinte écologique de l’utilisation du sol : une taxe et une subvention. Les auteurs montrent que dans les milieux urbains, l’outil de taxation offre un potentiel intéressant pour améliorer la protection des espaces naturels. Par contre, en milieu agricole, l’outil fonctionne moins bien. Quant aux subventions, elles sont peu efficaces pour protéger les espaces naturels. Dans tous les cas, le faible niveau d’appui de la population montre que le chemin à parcourir vers l’écofiscalité au Québec reste semé d’embuches.
Identification of Insulin-Mimetic Phytochemicals from Mas Cotek (Ficus deltoidea) for Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes via LC-MS/MS and Molecular Docking Analyses
Authors: Man Eng Shu , Khayat Mohd Ezuan
Published: October 2023

Type 2 diabetes mellitus, a metabolic syndrome, has become increasingly prevalent in recent years. In the treatment of chronic T2DM, patients are required to take insulin daily, commonly through injections, as the hormone can easily be degraded by the digestive system if taken orally. This can be an uncomfortable experience for the patient. Thus, finding an alternative to insulin, especially from natural compounds, would be beneficial. Ficus deltoidea, which belongs to the Moraceae family, is a medicinal plant known for its anti-diabetic properties. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the phytochemicals from F. deltoidea that mimic insulin by studying their ability to bind to insulin receptors using in silico analysis. A total of 36 phytochemicals were identified in the methanolic extract of F. deltoidea through LC-MS/MS analysis. They were then subjected to molecular docking to determine their binding free energy with the insulin receptor (IR). The results revealed seven phytochemicals with the lowest binding free energy, with 2,3-dihydroxy-N,N'-bis[(E)-1-(4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-oxochromen-3-yl)ethylideneamino] butanediamide exhibiting the lowest binding free energy at -10.0 kcal/mol. Hence, these phytochemicals demonstrate potential as insulin-mimetic compounds that can be used in the treatment of T2DM.

Published: October 2023

Introducción: La pancreatitis aguda constituye un problema de salud a nivel mundial, es un proceso inflamatorio del páncreas con posible tejido peripancreático y que produce una afectación multiorgánica lo cual incrementa la tasa de mortalidad, así como eleva el costo en la atención a los pacientes que la padecen.

Objetivo: Comparar las escalas de APACHE II Y BISAP como valores predictivos de la morbimortalidad en la pancreatitis aguda.

Desarrollo: Los estudios muestran que las escalas APACHE II y BISAP pueden ser empleadas con buenos resultados para predecir la severidad de la PA, ya que excluyen muy bien a los casos negativos y pueden ser tratados de manera más sencilla sin el riesgo de complicaciones posteriores. Las imprecisiones en APACHE II las vinculan a que esta escala no fue creada inicialmente para PA, en cuanto a BISAP, a su sencillez y que incluyen una evaluación subjetiva del estatus mental del paciente que a veces tiene sus inconvenientes.

Conclusiones: La escala APACHE II puede resultar más efectiva en muchos casos, pero también es más compleja y requiere de Imagenología y más ítems, mientras BISAP resulta más práctica, al incluir menos elementos.

Published: October 2023

The paper presents the results of the study of heavy metals content in plant raw materials Thymus serpyllum L. growing in the vicinity of the village of Arkaim, Sibay, the Republic of Bashkortostan. The content of mobile forms of Cu, Ni, Mn, Co, Fe, Cd in soils did not exceed the maximum permissible concentrations, with the exception of Zn (1,87 MPC) and Pb (3,16 MPC). It was found that the most mobile element in the soil was Pb (59,4%), while Ni (0,07%) was less mobile. The soils of the studied territory were classified as permissible according to the degree of pollution, and the ecological situation turned out to be relatively satisfactory. The results of the statistical analysis showed that the concentrations of heavy metals in plant ash had a high variability (above 21%), with the exception of Co, which was characterized by an average variability (up to 20%). Cu content in Thymus serpyllum L. plants did not exceed acceptable values. There were exceeding of the maximum permissible levels for Zn (3,889,72 times), Fe (6,457,9 times), Ni (108189 times), Cd (1,162,16 times), Co (3,75,6 times), Pb (4,610,8 times) in all organs of the plant Thymus serpyllum L. Mn concentrations exceeded the norms in the stems and roots of the species by 1,514,48 times, respectively. The most absorbed by plants Thymus serpyllum L. elements turned out to be Fe and Ni. In plants Thymus serpyllum L. Fe (124,3) and Ni (1567,5) belonged to the group of elements of energetic accumulation (IA 10), Zn (8,12), while Cu (8,04), Mn (4,44), Pb (2,08), Cd (1,75), Co (1,31) belonged to the group of elements of strong accumulations (IA 110). In plants of Thymus serpyllum L. Cu, Zn, Ni, Fe, Mn, Pb were distributed by acropetal type (acropetal coefficient 1,0), while Cd, Co were distributed by basipetal type (acropetal coefficient 1,0).

Authors: Drozdenko Tatiana V.
Published: October 2023

The paper studies the planktonic algoflora of the Mirozhka and the Pskova Rivers. The research was carried out in the early autumn period of 2019. The taxonomic composition of the Mirozhka River included 107 species and intraspecific taxa of microalgae, the Pskova river 76 species taxa of algae from 7 phylums: Bacillariophyta, Cyanobacteria, Chlorophyta, Ochrophyta, Cryptophyta, Euglenozoa, Miozoa. The basis of the floral complex in both rivers were diatoms and green algae. The representatives of the Ochrophyta department also made a visible contribution to the species richness of the algoflora of the Mirozhka River. The degree of floral similarity of phytoplankton communities of the Mirozhka and Pskova rivers, calculated using the Sorensen-Chekanovsky index, was 55,7% (51 species of microalgae were common to the rivers). The average phytoplankton abundance in the Mirozhka River was 891,9 thousand cells/l, and in the Pskova river 199,6 thousand cells/l, biomass 366,9 micrograms/l and 79,6 micrograms/l, respectively. According to ecological and geographical analysis, freshwater widespread planktonic forms of microalgae predominated in both rivers, preferring slightly alkaline waters. Beta-mesosaprobionts prevailed in relation to organic matter pollution in rivers (38,5% the Mirozhka River; 41,8% the Pskova River), which indicates moderate pollution of the studied watercourses. The average saprobity index of the Mirozhka River and the Pskova River was 2,1 and 1,9, respectively, which makes it possible to attribute the waters of the studied watercourses to the 3rd class of quality moderately polluted.

Three species of secretive invasive insects (locust gall midge Obolodiplosis robiniae (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), miner moth Macrosaccus robiniella (Clemens, 1859) and locust digitate leafminer Parectopa robiniella (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae)) as well as locust gall midge parasitoid Platygaster robiniae Buhl Duso, 2007 (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae) were noted on black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia Linnaeus, 1753) and clammy locust (R. viscosa Ventenat, 1801) (Fabaceae) on the territory of Voronezh. In galls on Robinia leaves, gall midge larvae, pupae exuvia, and pupae of the parasitoid P. robiniae were found, from which adults were bred under laboratory conditions. Galls of O. robiniae and mines with larvae of the moth M. robiniella were noted both on black and clammy locust. Mines with larvae of the moth P. robiniella were recorded only on clammy locust on the territory of the forest park area of the All-Russian Research Institute of Forest Genetics, Breeding and Biotechnology. The distribution of P. robiniella is possibly associated with the cleaning of leaf litter in the city. The locust gall midge O. robiniae and its parasitoid P. robiniae are reported for the Voronezh Region for the first time.
Modern forest climatopes and forest typological zoning of the northern part of European Russia
Authors: Nazarenko Nazar N.
Published: October 2023

The article considers the current problem of modern scheme of Russia forest zoning designing and methods of forest typological assessment of forest climatopes and forest typological zoning. For the northern part of European Russia at the beginning of the XXI century, the climates of forest thermotopes, contrastotopes and hygrotopes, their spatial distribution, geographical stretching and zoning has been determined by classical forest typological methods. It has been ascertained four zones of forest climatopes, four zones of continentality (zones of forest contrastotopes), one of that has separate semienclave from the White and Barents Seas, and five zones of forest hygrotopes (one of that is disjunctive). A new, previously undescribed climate of the contrastotop of the mild (seaside) forest climate has been identified, requiring an assessment of the forest-growing effect. It has been established that the modern zones of forest thermo-, contrast- and hygrotopes have a different nature of geographical extent, and modern boundaries of zones have characterized by dynamical mobility and indefinite form in most cases, especially boundaries of forest hygrotopes climate zones. The modern forest typological zoning of the northern part of European Russia is proposed according to three equivalent climatic regimes and it has established forest typological regions with maximal area. In connection with complicate of boundaries of zones character it is established that the greatest diversity of forest typological areas are between boundaries of thermotopes and hygrotopes climate zones and from White and Barents Seas and Ural Mountains. The question is raised about the assessment of the actual existence of some selected local forest typological areas as geographical ecotones.
The evaluation of effectiveness of preparations based on Steinernema carpocapsae (Nematoda: Rhabditida) against the greater wax moth (Galleria mellonella L.) and the yellow mealworm beetle (Tenebrio molitor L.)
Authors: Chakina Daria A. , Rodionova Elena Y.
Published: October 2023

At present, the issue of studying the effect of nematodes on insects has become one of the key issues, as biopreparations are a promising alternative to other chemical insecticides and expand the range of proposed means of protection. The use of biopreparations based on entomopathogenic nematodes is optimal because they do not have a negative impact on humans and the environment. In the course of the work we have identified the necessary concentration of biopreparation based on Steinernema carpocapsae, for an effective effect on the large wax moth and big flour borer. The study showed that the nematodes of St. carpocapsae species quickly penetrate and multiply in the body of the large wax moth. In the first day the biological effectiveness of the prepared suspension was 46,5% at a concentration of 1950 specimens/ml and 87% at a concentration of 3450 specimens/ml; while on the large wax moth the prepared suspension had a much slower effect. On the first day, the biological efficacy was only 24% at the two concentrations. Comparing the yield of nematodes, we found that for Galleria mellonella the concentration of 1950 specimens/ml was preferable, for Tenebrio molitor 3450 specimens/ml.

Published: October 2023

One of the best plants for landscaping urban areas are representatives of the genus Rhododendron L. However, there is the problem of obtaining planting material because traditional propagation methods are inefficient or take a lot of time and resources. In vitro micropropagation can be a solution to this problem. The research objects were Rhododendron Helsinky University, Rhododendron hybrid Marianna v. Weizsacker, and Rhododendron caucasicum var. Rosea. Three variants of Woody Plant Medium (WPM) were used for the experiment: with the addition of benzylaminopurine/indolylbutyric acid or naphthylacetic acid/kinetin in the proportion of mg/l, and a control variant without hormones. The analysis of the effect of different concentrations of phytohormones has demonstrated that for different representatives there are specific combinations of growth regulators. For Rh. caucasicum var. Rosea the hormone-free medium was the most suitable for plant growth as well as the appearance of shoots of order II. For Rh. hybrid Marianna v. Weizsacker, the optimal medium for plant growth was also a hormone-free medium, but the addition of naphthylacetic acid / kinetin enhanced the tillering. The presence of benzylaminopurine / indolylbutyric in the medium had a negative effect on the species and the hybrid. The use of these hormones for Rh. Helsinky University resulted in stimulation of growth and tillering of the plant, while naphthylacetic acid / kinetin hormones caused a depressing effect.

Authors: Vybornov Aleksandr A. , Laktaeva Eleonora M. , Frolov Igor K.
Published: October 2023

The article is about complete publication of ceramic inventory from the Neolithic site in the North Caspian Sea region. It has become eponymous for identifying the late Neolithic of the area of interest. On the Tenteksor I several objects which were interpretated as dwellings or utility pits were researched. But the first article about this complex has summary character without analyzing inventory for individual objects. So, the purpose of the publication is a detailed description of the ceramics inventory for each object. The authors conclude that all three objects are dwellings despite on different size. We can interpretate their features as seasonality. In each house were founded collapses, sets of vessels, single fragments of dishes. Their deep distribution in each object is traced. Ceramics has similar characteristics of making technology, shapes, methods of applying patterns and ornamental compositions. These features are inherent in the Tenteksor type of late Neolithic of the North Caspian Sea. At the same time, the vessels have its own features in each object. It can be explained by chronological differences in the research materials. Radiocarbon dates indicate this.
Cultural and educational work in the Red Army during the Great Patriotic War (22.06.1941–09.05.1945): the first attempts to study the problem undertaken in the Soviet historiography in hot pursuit
Authors: Tribunsky Sergey A.
Published: October 2023

In the Soviet, post-Soviet and modern Russian historiography of the beginning of the 21st century, it was established that the system of party and political work successfully functioned in the Red Army during the Great Patriotic War (22.06.194109.05.1945). Its integral element was (albeit with a relative degree of independence) cultural and educational work. Moreover, in the Soviet historical science, their research was held in the category of priority, which cannot be said about the post-Soviet historiography. The author of the paper has made an attempt to consider the history of studying the problem of cultural and educational work in the Soviet historical science during the Great Patriotic War, figuratively speaking, in hot pursuit. In the coverage of the topic indicated in the title of this paper, the following circumstances are fully taken into account: the conditions for the performance of the first works, determined by the emerging military-political situation, and the process of restructuring of the Soviet historical science during the war; a small number of historiographical and historical sources that were published in the chronological framework indicated above; the absence of works that would correspond strictly to academic canons, the presence of a certain chronicle on them on the subject of the feat of the Soviet people in the fight against Nazi Germany and its satellites; the absence of a proper historiographical understanding of our topic. The paper is made from the standpoint of modern theoretical and methodological approaches, in the key of a lapidary historiographical review (with small elements of conciseness). Consequently, there are no copyright claims to the completeness of the coverage of the problem.

Published: October 2023

Currently, the problem of teaching foreign citizens in higher educational institutions of the Russian Federation is relevant. There is an urgent need to choose the most rational and adequate forms, technologies, pedagogical tools and methods of teaching students from other countries. In this regard, it is important to comprehensively consider, develop and implement teaching methods that ensure the active and effective involvement of foreign students in the educational process of a Russian university. The problem of providing a teacher of a particular course with accelerated adaptation of foreign students to a new educational environment and the elimination of information, motivational and sociocultural barriers in the development of all necessary competencies comes to the fore. The paper focuses on the problem of designing an effective model for teaching higher mathematics to foreign students based on the interaction of traditional and innovative educational techniques and technologies. Specific possible ways of solving the problems posed are considered on the example of teaching mathematical courses to students majoring in 10.05.02 Information security of telecommunication systems at Volga State University of Telecommunications and Informatics, 10.05.03 Information security of automated systems at Samara National Research University and 44.03.05 Pedagogical education (Mathematics and Physics) at Samara State University of Social Sciences and Education.

Authors: Grebennikova Veronika M. , Stepenko Eduard  A. , Nikitina Natalya I. , Illarionova Ludmila P.
Published: October 2023

The authors of the article state that the content of the concept of professional culture of a military musician is due to the specific characteristics of his professional activity (both in peacetime and in wartime). In the article, the professional culture of military musicians is interpreted as a synergetic set of individually mastered professionally oriented knowledge, professionally applied skills, skills, competencies, abilities to follow professional deontological principles for the qualitative performance of their professional duties. The authors of the article believe that the process of forming a professional culture of a military musician at a university can be considered as one of the fundamental conditions for the formation and development of the personality of a future officer as a highly qualified specialist capable of performing his functional duties at the highest possible level. The authors consider a complex of professionally important qualities of a military musician, which are classified as a meaningful component of the professional culture of this specialist soldier. Among the professionally important qualities of a military musician, the following are especially distinguished: discipline (a high level of self-discipline), ultimate responsibility, developed willpower, moral stamina, physical endurance, restraint, collectivism (teamwork skills, which makes it possible to perfect the ensemble performance of military-musical, patriotic works), quick response to changes in the situation, stress resistance. Particular attention is paid to the interpersonal relationships of cadets who are part of the military brass band, the development of their skills and abilities of cooperation, team interaction as important components of the professional culture of military musicians.

The article considers proven in practical teaching methodological techniques and strategies that are effective for the development of oral speech skills for undergraduates of agricultural specialties. Individual tasks and group projects based on the national-regional component are offered, facilitating the adaptation of probation specialists in the professional field and contributing to the development of professional communication skills in a foreign language. An integrative approach, methods of general scientific analysis, and a descriptive method are used. The introduction of a national-regional component is proposed using supportive tables and schemes that facilitate the comprehension of professional information. Visualization of agrotechnical information allows a student to select and apply the necessary amount of data for analyzing to discuss in a concise and accessible form, in a systematic and consistent presentation without the need to memorize. The article presents 2 types of tables useful to perform specific tasks aimed to develop professional competencies in the process of learning a foreign language. The data of the survey proposed to the students are given, the most relevant goals are highlighted in the opinion of undergraduates, achieved with the introduction of a regional component. The introduction of a regional component in the process of learning a professional foreign language contributes to the development of general professional competencies. Besides, it allows you to bring the learning process closer to the conditions of practical work and apply the acquired skills and knowledge of a foreign language to solve specific agrotechnical tasks. The ability to systematize information in the form of tables, formulate a related statement based on the data from a table or a diagram also contribute to the development of professional communication skills in a foreign language, useful for students in later professional activities.
Peculiarities of vocal pedagogical culture formation in future music teachers in China’s higher education system
Authors: Kislyakova Yulia N. , Liu Bailin
Published: October 2023

This article reveals the peculiarities of the formation of vocal and pedagogical culture among future music teachers in the higher education system in China. Modern requirements for the professional training of future music teachers and their musical and pedagogical culture, including a vocal and pedagogical component, raise the need to modernize the higher education system. The article presents a study of the structure of the vocal and pedagogical culture of a music teacher, which includes four components: axiological, theoretical, technological and creative. The article defines the essential characteristics of experimental, practical, linguistic and research methods for the formation of vocal and pedagogical culture among future music teachers. The analysis of teaching methods allows us to conclude that at present the system of higher music and pedagogical education in China is undergoing serious changes, moving away from the traditional approach to interactive, from theoretical education to practical, and also shifting its focus from focusing on results to focusing on the quality of education. All this suggests that the vocal and pedagogical culture of a music teacher is becoming an increasingly important component of the professional training of future music teachers in China. New methods and approaches to teaching, such as interactive techniques and the active use of practical skills, help students to better understand and assimilate the material, as well as improve the quality of their musical and pedagogical culture. The development of the vocal and pedagogical culture of a music teacher in China is an important area of modernization of the higher education system in the country.

Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to the problems of integration processes and the implementation of integration in the space of the Russian Federation by organizing joint activities in the educational sphere. The means of implementing the integration function are University profile educational sessions (University sessions). To determine and describe the basic principles of the indicated function, the authors analyze studies devoted to the retrospective of the analyzed process, modern integration experience, the specifics of the implementation of the integration function in a specific form of organization. The basic principles formulated by the authors are distributed according to the components of the pedagogical process: targeted, meaningful, procedural assessment. The target component for university sessions defines the principles concerning the unification of the university staff and university sessions participants for joint activities, the focus of university sessions on education, the multicultural educational space of university sessions, qualitative and quantitative planning of sessions results. The content component defines principles regarding the inclusion of variable and invariant parts of the program, dynamic and adaptive content. The procedural component defines the principles of joint activities in group and individual formats, ensuring equal opportunities for all participants, the choice of methods, forms and means of joint activities that reflect the best experience of domestic education. The evaluation component involves the systemic use of diagnostic tools, the implementation of constant monitoring. Based on the analysis, the concept of the integration function of the University session at the university is also formulated.

The research is needed to build relationships across courses while creating and implementing educational programs. The paper analyzes the concepts interdisciplinarity, interdisciplinary education by researchers of national pedagogical science and foreign researchers. It also highlights the characteristics of interdisciplinary education, develops the structure of an interdisciplinary approach to learning a foreign language, and describes the elements of educational and methodological support of the course. It shows the process of the syllabus development as well as the coursebook creation and conducts a questionnaire. The study has shown that an interdisciplinary approach to teaching a foreign language is carried out through the reliance of a foreign language on specialized courses in order to establish significant, from students point of view, links between courses to develop foreign language communicative competence as well as improve professional knowledge through language, particularly, the ability to find, understand, synthesize and use knowledge of specialized courses through English and in English, expanding the professional and personal worldview.
The use of modern technologies in teaching foreign languages at non-linguistic faculties of a pedagogical university
Authors: Tukaeva Olga E.
Published: October 2023

This paper is devoted to the study of innovations in the modern education system, as well as their application in the process of teaching a foreign language. The paper discusses the concept of innovation in education, it is noted that innovation contributes to improving the quality of education. The most relevant is the use of an interactive approach in the process of teaching a foreign language. The hypothesis is that the effectiveness of teaching foreign languages will increase if it is based on an interactive approach. Interactive training helps to ensure the readiness of university graduates for foreign-language professional communication. Interactive learning is understood as a mutual learning process that takes place through a dialogue of participants in the educational process. During this cognitive process, there is an exchange of information, discussion and resolution of the problem, as well as various educational situations are modeled. The paper describes in detail such an interactive technique as an ideological carousel; it also gives an assessment of the use of role-playing and business games. The educational value of the game is quite high. With the help of the game, it becomes possible to learn the language in an interesting way, the speech-thinking activity of students is activated, students test various behavioral models that are characteristic of subsequent pedagogical activity.
On the Implications of Ignoring Competing Risk in Survival Analysis: The Case of the Product-Limit Estimator
Authors: Acquah Joseph , Bosson-Amedenu Senyefia , Adubuah Eric
Published: October 2023

Although the Kaplan-Meier (KM) is a single event model, it is frequently used in literature with datasets that are assumed to be cause-specific without any proper verification. It is crucial to evaluate the implication of this on the probability estimates. This study compares the estimates of the cumulative incidence functions to the complement of the product-limit estimator (1-KM). The KM was found to inflate probability estimates when the dataset is unverified for competing risk. Estimates with lower standard errors and a larger area under the Receiver Operation Characteristic (ROC) curve were related to datasets verified for competing events, while estimates with datasets unverified for competing risk had lower area under the ROC curve and higher standard errors. The results support the idea that since the product-limit estimator is a cause-specific model, it naturally performs better for a single event model than in the case of several events; hence, it is necessary to verify the dataset for competing events. The findings of this study clearly suggest that before choosing a modelling strategy, one should confirm competing risks in the survival dataset.
