Authors: Tran Xuan Thinh , Ho Kha Canh , Trinh Van Dong
Published: March 2020

Background: Peritonitis is still one of the most important abdomen problems with the unacceptable high mortality. Mannheim Peritonitis Index (MPI) is one prognostic system that helps us to estimate the prognosis in cases of postoperative peritonitis whereas procalcitonin (PCT) has been widely investigated for its prognostic value in septic patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between the PCT with MPI and its value in the prognosis of patients with postoperative peritonitis. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study of 80 patients with postoperative peritonitis. The MPI was calculated in all patients. Based upon the MPI, patients were arranged into three groups: group 1 (MPI <22), group 2 (MPI = 22-29) and group 3 (MPI>29). Clinical symptoms and PCT were measured on three times: on the first day, the third day and the fifth day after surgery. The outcome of patients was noted and the prognostic value of the PCT concentration was evaluated. Results: In the 80 patients studied, include 32 patients of group 1 (40%), 29 patients of group 2 (36,2%) and 19 patients of group 3 (23,8%). The average concentration of PCT in group 1; 2 and 3 was 7,98 ng/ml; 31,96 ng/ml and 57,53 ng/ml, respectively. There was a significant difference between the 3 groups (p <0,01). There was a positive correlation between the concentration of PCT and MPI score (r=0,62; p <0,01). The average PCT concentrations between survivors and nonsurvivors groups did not differ on the 1st day but those on the 3rd and 5th day differed significantly. Conclusion: PCT concentrations were correlated with MPI. PCT kinetics between day 1, 3 and 5 could be a predictor of mortality of patients with postoperative peritonitis.

Published: March 2020

Background: Dementia after stroke, particularly subacute period is often overlooked. Today the quality of human life is increasingly high, finding scales that have high value for detection of dementia in patients with stroke is increasingly interested. MoCA test is high sensitivity with mild dementia and identify more abnormalities of awareness caused by vascular, but MoCA have not been studied much in Vietnam.
Objective: Assessing MoCA test in subacute stroke patients and compare MoCA versus MMSE in these patients.
Subjects: 90 patients with subacute stroke period, these people are being treated at Department of cardiovascular internal medicine at Hue Central Hospital, from 7/2014 - 7/2015.
Methods: cross-sectional description and analysis.
Results: The mean age is 65.57 ± 13.38, accounting for 54.4% male and 45.6% female. Age, duration of illness has weak correlation with MoCA. The risk factors: hypertension, stroke ischemic transient, alcoholism, smoking, heart disease, diabetes, dyslipidemia related no statistical significance with MoCA. The proportion of dementia in subacute stroke according MoCA is 82.2%. The concordance between MoCA and MMSE was good (kappa = 0.684). Using DSM-IV criteria as the gold standard we found MoCA more valuable in the dementia diagnosis than MMSE (AUC 0.864 versus 0.774, p <0.05).
Conclusion: The rate of dementia in stroke subacute period according MoCA is quite high. MoCA is valuable than MMSE in detecting dementia in patients with stroke subacute period, this scale is short, easy to implement so should put into using widely in clinical practice.

RUSSIAN COUNTER-TERRORISM STRATEGY
Authors: KOZACHENKO IVAN , SERGEEV DANIL , SUMACHEV ALEKSEI
Published: March 2020

Introduction: terrorism has acquired very many features of a global phenomenon. Terrorist activity by one and the same organization or by a group of organizations can simultaneously be traced down in several states or territories. It has naturally led to the competition of different law orders in elaborating strategies to counter terrorism and hampered developing unified approaches.

Methods: based on law comparative methods, the article focuses on the analysis of factors which have served as the basis for the Russian current strategy of countering terrorism.

Analysis: in the authors’ view, «the counter-terrorism strategy implies a set of measures aimed at preventing acts of terror and minimizing damage. Such strategies, as a rule, include political and organization and legal subsystems (criminal, administrative and other law) the content of which is determined by the following factors: 1) historical and social as well as territorial features of terrorism in a state; 2) adherence to certain international instruments in countering terrorism; 3) international terrorist organizations operational in a particular region; 4) working methods of terrorist organizations and of individual terrorists in a region; 5) peculiarities of national legislation on countering terrorism; 6) the political system of a state and a focus of international policy.

Results: the research of national strategies serves as a set of methods for elaborating a universal (global) strategy which, at the first stage, should include a legal assessment of new challenges; unification of criminal legislation of different countries of the world on the matters of qualification and penalties for terrorist acts; unification of approaches to recognizing organizations terrorist ones.

Authors: SALIKOV MARAT , KUZNETSOVA SVETLANA , MOCHALOV ARTUR
Published: March 2020

Introduction: Problems of stability of constitutional order have both theoretical and practical dimensions and touch all states. In the article, constitutional stability in the context of social changes is discussed.

Methods: Doing the analysis, the authors use special methodology of legal research. In particular,
a comparative-law is broadly applied as well as case studies.

Analysis: In the first part of the article the authors discuss recent developments in the Russian constitutional legislation concerning electoral systems and informational technologies. In particular, the «Yarovaya Act» is criticized. In the authors’ opinion, legislation that does not meet social demands undermines constitutional stability. Frequent amendments of the Constitution and constitutional legislation (especially electoral one) do not contribute to constitutional stability as well. In the second part the authors analyze constitutional stability through the prism of inter-ethnic relations. They discuss some cases from Indian, Nigerian and Ethiopian experience.

Results: The authors make a conclusion that stable constitutional order does not mean inflexible order. There should be a balance between social changes and maintenance of basic values and institutions. The constitutional order should be rigid enough for social changes not to be able to undermine the constitutional basis and trust of citizens to values, aims and principles proclaimed by the main law of the country.
IMPROVING TAX COMPLIANCE IN A GLOBALIZED WORLD: AN APPROACH OF BRICS COUNTRIES
Authors: VINNITSKY DANIL , KUROCHKIN DENIS
Published: March 2020

Introduction: The article is devoted to the issues of improving tax compliance. The tax gap leads to the loss of the planned revenues to the budgetary system, therefore the Russian Federation, as many other countries, is trying to give an adequate forecast of the possible tax gap and minimize the amount of the falling out revenues.

Methods: comparison and analysis, comparative legal method.

Analysis: to decrease the tax gap it is necessary to adopt a complex of measures such as improving:
(1) access to information needed by tax administration, (2) exchange of information between tax administrations of different countries (3) horizontal monitoring and risk management. At present, Russian tax law includes both traditional and modern forms of tax audit that need to be developed on the following directions: (1) providing
for the expanded electronic documentation circulation between the tax administration and taxpayers,
(2) reduction of time and material costs of the preparation and submission of tax returns, and other.

Results: the effective elimination of the tax gap requires coordinated and consistent application of the abovementioned measures taking into account the economic situation and the actual capacity of certain categories of taxpayers in regard to paying taxes. In the context of the BRICS, it is proposed to adopt international conventions aimed at improving tax compliance and creating conditions for a fair resolution of cross-border tax disputes.

(THE VIEW FROM BELARUS, KYRGYZSTAN)
Authors: TOMASHEVSKI KIRILL , RAMANKULOV KUBANYCHBEK
Published: March 2020

Introduction: in the context of the Eurasian economic and legal integration, the functioning of the single labour market, the problems of convergence of labour legislation of the member States of the Eurasian Economic Union are of particular relevance.

Methods: the article analyzes the historical experience of harmonization of labour legislation within the Commonwealth of Independent States and the Eurasian Economic Community with the broad use of the comparative legal method.

Analysis: special attention is paid to the Concept of a Model Labour Code of the member States of the Commonwealth of Independent States, adopted in December of 2000, the experience of development of Model Labour Code and the current prospects for its addoption. The authors also examine the experience of developing the basics of the Eurasian Economic Union labour legislation, its intended structure and the question of whether it is possible to resume this work within the Eurasian Economic Union. The authors critically evaluate the draft Principles for the development of the Basics of labor legislation (model Labor code) of the Eurasian Economic Union member States, which was developed by the General Confederation of Trade Unions in 2015.

Results: the authors on the basis of critical analysis of scientific points of view come to the substantiation of the five most promising ways of harmonization of labour legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic, the Republic of Armenia, the Republic of Belarus, the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation: conclusion or revision of regional international agreements; mutual consideration (national reception) of the best legislative experience in the regulation of labour and closely related relations; international legal reception through the implementation of international labour standards into national legislation; preparation and adoption of the Model Labour Code of the Commonwealth of Independent States member States; adoption of the principles of labor legislation and the program of harmonization of labour legislation of the Eurasian Economic Union member States in the form of a decision of the Eurasian Economic Commission.
THE BRICS AND THE BEPS PROJECT: AN OVERVIEW FROM A BRAZILIAN PERSPECTIVE
Authors: SCHOUERI LUIS EDUARDO , GALENDI JúNIOR RICARDO ANDRé
Published: March 2020

Introduction: the present article is aimed at providing an overview of the Brazilian measures with regard to the BEPS Project and seeking the common perspectives Brazil may share with other BRICS countries.

Methods: analysis, comparison, description, interpretation.

Analysis: in its first part, the article addresses some aspects of the Brazilian legislation which are relevant for the BEPS Project Actions. In the second part, common evolutionary aspects of the treaty policies of the BRICS countries are presented, followed by considerations on the need for cooperation between the BRICS for more comprehensive reforms with regard to the digital economy.

Results: even though Brazilian legislation is still silent with respect to a General Anti-Avoidance Rule (GAAR), Brazil has enacted important Special Anti-Avoidance Rules (SAARs). Besides, Brazilian transfer pricing policy presents relevant deviations from the OECD Guidelines. These deviations, if adequately interpreted, may offer a suitable solution to current feasibility problems of the application of transfer pricing legislation as addressed in the OECD Guidelines.

It is also important to describe why Brazilian regime of taxation of controlled foreign companies cannot be considered as a SAAR. Furthermore, it is important to present Brazilian measures with regard to deductibility of interests, contrasting them with the measures of BEPS Action 4. Finally, the treaties in which Brazil has recently included specific anti-abuse provisions are addressed.

Published: March 2020

Introduction: this article reviews the cross-border tax disputes resolution practice in Russia and evaluates the prospects for the development of new mechanisms for the resolution of tax disputes arising from cross-border relations, including tax arbitration. In recent years, the development of international instruments for eliminating double taxation and resolving tax disputes within OECD and G20 multilateral formats as well as bilateral agreements on avoidance of double taxation have led to the growing interest in this paper’s topic. The purpose of this paper is to determine / identify an optimal mechanism for the cross-border tax disputes resolution in Russia, taking into account the current domestic legal regulation and international commitments in the field of cross-border taxation.

Methods: given the nature of this research, we have used the general scientific and individual scientific research methods. We have also used legal research methods such as comparative legal and formal legal methods, logical, systemic, and functional interpretation. The recent academic literature on the particular aspects of this research has been investigated too.

Analysis: the practice in the application of international tax agreements in Russia demonstrates that the cross-border tax disputes are mainly resolved within the framework of domestic judicial procedures. Mutual agreement procedures and tax arbitration are not common mechanisms for resolving cross-border tax disputes in Russia. Meanwhile, the international investment disputes affecting particular aspects of taxation are often dealt through international arbitration institutions.

Results: as a part of the commitments made under the Multilateral Instrument (MLI), Russian Federation considers arbitration and mutual agreement procedures only as possible alternative ways to settle cross-border tax disputes arising from international tax agreements. Based on the well-known cross-border tax disputes resolution practice, we conclude that none of the states could completely isolate itself from the international arbitration procedures in the current circumstances. This is true even if such state did not include the arbitration clause in its tax agreements and did not make the commitments on tax arbitration under the Multilateral Instrument (MLI).

Published: March 2020

Introduction: the comprehensive impact of digital technologies on the modern civil process is obvious. Today, digital technologies have become a reality not only of judicial process, but also of enforcement proceedings, as well as notaries and arbitration. At the same time, the massive introduction of digital technologies has posed a number of conceptual issues: for example, the permissible limits of the impact of such technologies on the very essence of civil law enforcement. In spite of the fact that there are a number of rather fundamental studies in Russian and foreign science, this problem is not sufficiently covered in science and has not yet found a solution. Methods: the method of materialistic dialectics; the system method; the method of comparative law. Analysis: due to analysis of the achieved level of practical development and doctrinal understanding of digital technologies in the Russian and foreign civil process, an attempt is made to conduct a theoretical and practical study of the problem of interinfluence of digital technologies and the civil process. Results: a) the dominant approach to the understanding of digital technologies at the doctrinal and regulatory level is the «instrumental approach», in which such technologies are perceived primarily as new ways of conducting law enforcement activities, conceptually not changing the very foundations of such activities, b) as a way (form) of implementation of law enforcement activities, digital technologies can not affect the content of this activity; the massive or radical introduction of such technologies could influence not only certain institutions of civil procedural law, but also its principles, topology, the very essence of law enforcement in civil cases.
MODERN CHALLENGES TO LABOR RELATIONS: DISCUSSION ON THE GLOBAL REGULATION OF THE LABOR MARKET
Authors: RICCERI MARCO , SHESTERYAKOVA IRINA
Published: March 2020

Introduction: the authors study the possibility of the global regulation of the labor market. To highlight the topic the article presents the opinions of two experts.

Methods: comparison, description, classification. The subjects of the study are international treaties ratified within the framework of international organizations and pools, statistical data.

Analysis: economic, social, political and other changes constantly occur in the modern world.
It influences the emergence of new forms of competitive ability, pursuit to new opportunities of profit, restructuring of industry, production units, mobility of the workforce, migration flows and formation of new communities, social and cultural relations. In such conditions it is important to observe labor and other social rights of employees, guarantees of labor unions activity. The article faces the questions of how and in what ways it is possible to develop uniform norms and concepts capable of promoting more fruitful specific state cooperation in the common interests of managing the labor market.

Results: professor M. Ricceri pays attention to the fact that global competition «stresses» the growing importance of institutional factors to regulate the labor market, namely the applicable laws and rules regulating the conduct of more important participants of the development process: government, system of business, employees and labor unions. Their experience shows that improving of economy and social welfare and also promotion of sustainable growth ultimately depends on the capability to adapt institutes, norms and conduct globally. These are the problems which should be solved by integration and management decision. Professor I. V. Shesteryakova points out that nowadays labor legal integration of states is a process of mutual adaptation of labor legislation of the states through rapprochement, harmonization and unification based on international legal rules. Thus it is possible to work out uniform notions and approaches to manage the global labor law in the framework of labor legal geo-integration.
Compression of limbs by tight bandages

Published: March 2020

Human body parts are sometimes compressed by tight clothes, footwear, bandages etc. Therefore, it is important to balance between functionality and comfort of garments in order to avoid negative effects
on human health. Mechanical properties of both garment and tissue need to be taken into account for the analysis of pressure of tight garments.
The thick walled tube theory is adjusted to a composite cylinder with a
rigid core, as an approximate limb model with corresponding edge conditions. The results suggest the effect of tightness and elastic properties of the tissue and the tight garment on the level and type of tissue stresses.

Published: March 2020

This paper aims to investigate fire resistance properties of two samples
of fireproof bovine leather; both with smooth and perforated brushed surfaces. Apart from flammability and flame spreading, an important property is heat resistance and the development of gaseous products that
occur during heat degradation. For the purpose of characterizing those properties, cowhide leather samples were exposed to thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of monitoring gaseous degradation products (TG-IR) during
decomposition. Considering the results of fire resistance, it can be concluded that tested samples of smooth bovine leather show satisfactory
stability to the influence of flame and heat, while perforated brushed fireproof leather with artificial surface was partially pouched and gathered in the area of direct contact with flame. Both samples show similar behavior during TGA, but differences have been observed in the analysis of gaseous degradation products.
