The properties of the ethnophore in the context of historical transformations of the traditional Ossetian subculture of Lӕgdzinad
Authors:   North Ossetian Institute of Humanitarian and Social Research  named after V.I. Abaev, Khadikova Alina Kh.
Published: January 2025

In the article, the characteristics of the Ossetian ethnophore are subjected to a purposeful analysis in the context of the traditional male subculture and taking into account the factor of historical variability. The article consists of two parts. The first part, based on written sources and folklore texts, examines the value sphere, ideology, moral base, and communicative programs of the traditional male subculture of Ossetians in the aspect of historical retrospect. The second part, based entirely on empirical material (the results of a survey conducted in 2022-2023 among ethnic Ossetians of different ages), contains an analysis of modern forms of implementation of the ancient Lægzinad. The author turns to the ethnographic content of various aspects of the traditional male subculture of Ossetians, then to their actual modern embodiment and reveals the degree of participation of various components of the peculiar “code of man” in the subjective interpretation of modern life of this ethnic group. It is revealed that the specific values, moral attitudes and communicative programs that make up the ideals of the ethnic personality of Ossetians are closely related to the Lægdzinad. Despite certain losses inherent in the processes of social evolution (they are named in the study), the values of the Lægdzinad male subculture have still not lost their authentic meanings and continue to influence the concept of the “face” of the modern ethnophore-Ossetian. The male subculture of the Lægdzinad, with all its accompanying ethical and communicative programs, symbols and ideology, forms the basic concept of the ethnomentality of Ossetians and is still present in the subjective interpretation of life of this ethnic group.

Authors:   Institute of History and Archeology of North Ossetia-Alania, Khubaeva Lana K.
Published: January 2025

The article is devoted to the history of the Vladikavkaz military-vocational school, opened at the very beginning of the 20th century. The school was opened at the Military Headquarters of the Terek Cossack Army. Young males were trained there. Mostly, these were people belonging to the Cossack class. The main goal of the school was to train master specialists who could provide young Cossacks entering the service with a full set of uniforms. The school operated on the basis of specially developed rules. The immediate management was performed by a person holding the position of the head of the school. The work reflects the financial side of the opening and subsequent functioning of the school - the costs of arrangement, wages for craftsmen and teachers, provision of all necessary materials and tools. The work is based on documents of the Central State Archive of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania. It reflects the entire program of the school, which, in addition to the military-craft direction, also taught some subjects included in the program of schools under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Public Education.

The article examines theoretical and methodological approaches to the development of critical thinking in university students. A diagnostic examination of students allowed us to conclude that the subjects have not developed the skill of critical thinking, the ability to identify a holistic image of a problem situation, establish cause-and-effect relationships, find adequate ways to solve a problem, systematize, analyze, structure, determine the significance of information, find and evaluate their own solutions and other participants in educational relations. Objective. To study the features of the formation of critical thinking in university students and to develop the content of case studies that contribute to the development of components of critical thinking in university students. The study used the following methods for assessing students’ critical thinking: methods for determining the IQ, independence in decision-making, personal motives, self-esteem, self-regulation (authors: R. Amthauer, A.K. Osnitsky, A. Mekhrabiana, S.A. Budassi). The experiment showed that students have difficulties in understanding the essence of the proposed situation, structuring and classifying the material, do not use creative ways of working with information, the proposed solutions to the problem are not original, demonstrate a low level of development, independence, initiative and reflection. The study developed the content of case assignments that can be recommended for use in the process of training students in the direction of 44.03.03. Special (defectological) education, the implementation of the program for improving the qualifications of teachers. Testing the content of cases within the framework of the studied disciplines contributed to increasing the motivation of students for future professional activities, improving general cultural and professional competencies, critical thinking, research and communication skills, initiative, independence, teamwork style.

The article analyzes the features of innovation marketing in the restaurant business industry. It is revealed that the restaurant business plays a significant role in the development of Russian entrepreneurship, and the development of competition determines the need for constant updating of technologies, products and services.
The purpose of the study is to substantiate and disclose the key features of innovation marketing in the restaurant business, the knowledge of which ensures the successful development and implementation of innovative products in the activities of enterprises. As a result of the research, the significant role of the analytical unit in the marketing of innovations has been revealed. The peculiarity of choosing the target market is the orientation towards the functions performed and consumer groups, and the marketing complex is characterized by a combination of 4P and 4C models. The price in the field of restaurant business acts as a cost that determines the customer’s needs. At the same time, the latter has its own assessment of the price level, which determines the need to maintain a clear balance between price and the usefulness of an innovative product/service. The approach to the dissemination of innovation should be combined with the convenience of purchase, which affects the level of customer loyalty to the institution and, accordingly, the speed of distribution of the novelty. The peculiarity of the promotion system is determined by the “unknown” of the novelty for the market, which increases the likelihood of automatically attracting the attention of consumers, but at the same time determines the need to intensify efforts in the form of establishing strong communications with target customers. The effectiveness of innovation marketing is assessed in stages using qualitative and quantitative methods. The work is of interest to representatives of the scientific community, representatives of the educational sphere and employees of enterprises of the real business.
What does a Trump presidency mean for reproductive and infant health in Africa?
Authors: Wallis Anne Baber
Published: January 2025

The moon swells again.
This feels like the early days of parenthood.
We swap watch. Focus on raising the child.
We’ve seen times like this before, we say.
Also, these times are like nothing we have
ever seen.

Camille Dungy1, from "Ceremony" in Soil: The Story of a Black Mother's Garden (Simon & Schuster: 2024) used with permission.

It is sometimes said that when America sneezes, the world catches a cold. The opposite scenario may also apply: a healthy and progressive American economy and democracy provides needed resources and hope to many parts of the world, including Africa.
Four years ago, we wrote an optimistic message in this journal.2,3 We asserted that newly-minted President Joseph Biden would reinstate and strengthen Obama-era global health programs that former President Donald Trump stripped and defunded during his four-year term. These programs included support for combatting and preventing HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, reproductive health, and infectious disease research.
Gender inequality: policy responses to employment and education in BRICS countries
Authors: Yi Hongling , Wang Gang , Feng Jie
Published: January 2025

This study assesses gender inequality in education and employment in BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) countries between the 2000 and 2021, using data from the World Bank database. A descriptive data analysis was carried out as well as graphical representations to compare among countries. The results showed that that female education achieved significant success, especially at secondary and tertiary levels, through specific policies including financial support and affirmative actions. Brazil and Russia maintained an increasingly higher enrollment at the secondary level of education. In contrast, China recorded very rapid growth in tertiary enrollments, reaching over 92% enrolment of females. History, poverty, and social pressures were identified as systemic barriers in the enrollment of girls to school in India and South Africa. This study indicate that even when gains are achieved on the educational front, translating them into gains in terms of equality in employment proves difficult. Secondly, the unemployment rates among females in countries such as Brazil and South Africa are higher, reflecting more significant socio-economic problems. This calls for more vigorous policy responses toward gender inequality within the labour market through labour reforms, job creation policies, and specific support to women's employment in the informal sector in the BRICS countries.

Published: January 2025

This study examined the effects of a combination of plan-do-check-action (PDCA) and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) on patients undergoing cesarean section. One hundred and thirty patients undergoing caesarean section at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University comprised the study group. They were randomly divided into a control group (CG) and an intervention group (IG). The CG accepted routine management during the perioperative period, while the IG accepted a combination nursing of PDCA and ERAS. Relative to the CG, the IG presented lower visual analogue scale (VAS) scores at 4 h and 72 h after cesarean section, lower self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) scores and self-rating depression scale (SDS) scores, shorter time of anal exhaust, first urination along after leaving bed, lower total incidence rate of complications, and higher satisfaction rate of patients. We conclude that a combination nursing of PDCA and ERAS can alleviate postoperative pain, improve the psychological state, expedite postoperative recovery along with lessen the incidence of complications in patients undergoing cesarean section.
Predictive value of early pregnancy uric acid levels for adverse pregnancy outcomes
Authors: Lai Qiaohong , Zhang Xin
Published: January 2025

Elevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels in pregnancy are linked to adverse outcomes, including preterm birth, preeclampsia, and low birth weight. To assess the predictive value of SUA levels in early pregnancy for adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs). A cohort of 4,240 pregnant women admitted for delivery from January 2021 to December 2022 was analyzed. APOs were compared between women with hyperuricemia (HUA) (UA > 360 μmol/L) and those without HUA. Logistic regression (LR) analysis was used to identify risk factors for APOs. Among the cohort, 295 women (6.9%) had HUA. Compared to the non-HUA group, the HUA group had a higher BMI (22.45 vs. 21.34), higher rates of hypertension (6.1% vs. 3.4%), preterm birth (10.2% vs. 6.3%), and low birth weight (10.2% vs. 5.9%). Multivariate LR analysis identified elevated UA levels, BMI, diabetes, and preeclampsia as significant risk factors for APOs. The optimal UA threshold for predicting preterm birth was 253.855 μmol/L (sensitivity: 71.4%, specificity: 55.2%). Early pregnancy SUA levels are predictive of adverse pregnancy outcomes, providing a foundation for potential clinical interventions. Given the moderate sensitivity and specificity of the identified SUA threshold for predicting preterm birth, further research is warranted to refine these values and establish their clinical implications in obstetric practice.

Authors:   University of Economics in Katowice, Department of Statistics, Econometrics and Mathematics, Mrowiec Marcin
Published: January 2025

Purpose: The aim of this article is to verify whether the Swiss franc (CHF), the US dollar
(USD), and the Japanese yen (JPY) continue to function as safe haven currencies in the financial
markets of the 21st century.
Design/methodology/approach: Analysis of correlations of logarithmic returns of major
currency indices with the S&P 500 index during periods of financial instability and additional
verification of net positions of selected market participants.
Findings: Based on the analysis of the return correlations of CHF, JPY, and USD with the S&P
500 during periods of heightened uncertainty in the 21st century, these currencies still serve as
safe havens. However, the net positions of large speculators in the futures markets do not
confirm that this is being utilized.
Practical implications: The conclusions may help both businesses and individuals stabilize
portfolio volatility during periods of heightened uncertainty in financial markets.
Social implications: Conclusions may help mitigate social inequalities arising during financial
crises by appropriate currency diversification of held assets.
Originality/value: The research comprehensively addresses the current situation during
periods of heightened volatility in the 21st century. Additionally, the analysis of return
correlations is supplemented by verification of net positions in the futures market using
commitment of traders reports. This work is directed towards businesses, households investing
surplus finances, and financial institutions.

Infrastructure development has both negative and positive impacts on the surrounding area. Economics growth, improved living standards, education levels, and easy access are the positive impacts of infrastructure development, meanwhile, it also has the consequences on the naturalresource use and environmental impacts from unsustainable consumption and socio-economic consequences for people around the developed areas. With the currently limited land, management needs to be addressed wisely in areas with high demand for land. Infrastructure can be a catalyst for land use change. This study aims to determine land use changes that occurred in 2005, 2010, & 2020 and analyze its driving factors. We used time series data from Landsat imagery taken from Landsat 5 TM (2005 & 2010) and Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS (2020). Visual analysis method was used to identify and classify the eight land use types per each period of Landsat image series. A simple overlay method was applied to determine the effect of the factors of distance from JT Jagorawi, from arterial collector roads, from GT Jagorawi, and from the government center; and population density. The results show that the built-up area increased from 29.72% in 2005, 32.03% in 2010 and 35.82% in 2020. The range distance that has a potential change in land cover is 4 km from JT Jagorawi & GT Jagorawi; 1 km distance from arterial and collector roads; 7.5 km distance from the government center with a population density of < 5,000 to 10,000 people km2.

Least Square Method Analysis for Sales Prediction in the Re-Evaluation of Feasibility Study for Housing Development Project in Malang
Authors: Durriya Kawakibud , Anwar Ruslin , Andi Eko
Published: January 2025

Feasibility studies are essential tools used to assess the viability and potential success of a project or investment. These studies provide critical information that helps stakeholders make informed decisions by analyzing various factors such as costs, benefits, risks, and potential returns. One specific type of project that often undergoes feasibility evaluation is housing development. In many cases, the feasibility assessment of housing projects is typically conducted by estimating the number of units sold without necessarily examining actual sales data. This approach can lead to inaccuracies and misguided conclusions. To address this gap, our research aims to re-evaluate the investment feasibility of ongoing housing projects by incorporating actual sales data and predicting future sales figures. By doing so, we can provide a more accurate and reliable assessment of the project's viability. The findings from this re-evaluation indicate that the investment in housing development remains highly feasible. Key financial metrics support this conclusion: the project has a Payback Period (PP) of just 0.55 years, meaning the initial investment is recovered in a little over half a year. Additionally, the Net Present Value (NPV) stands at Rp 103,917,111,414, reflecting the project's substantial profitability. Furthermore, the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is an impressive 81.73%, far exceeding typical investment benchmarks. Lastly, the Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR) of 1.53 demonstrates that the benefits of the project significantly outweigh the costs, confirming its overall financial soundness. These results underscore the importance of using comprehensive data analysis in feasibility studies to ensure accurate and effective investment decisions.
Potensi Penerapan Teknologi Aerobic Granular Sludge (AGS) dalam Pengolahan Air Limbah Industri Tahu
Authors: Hidayat Y. A. A. , Sumiyati S , Budihardjo M. A. , Setianingsih N. I.
Published: January 2025

Industri tahu menghasilkan makanan dengan kandungan protein tinggi, tetapi juga menghasilkan air limbah yang mengandung bahan organik dan amonia tinggi yang merupakan hasil pemecahan protein dalam biji kedelai selama proses ekstraksi. Usaha Mikro, Kecil, dan Menengah (UMKM) kadang-kadang mengabaikan pengolahan limbah karena keterbatasan sumber daya. Peraturan di Indonesia menetapkan standar kualitas khusus untuk air limbah dalam Peraturan Menteri Lingkungan Hidup Republik Indonesia No. 5 Tahun 2014 tentang Baku Mutu Air Limbah bagi Usaha dan/atau Kegiatan Pengolahan Kedelai. Indikator pencemaran bahan organik ditandai dengan parameter BOD 150 mg/l, COD 300 mg/l, TSS 200 mg/l, dan pH 5-9. Sementara itu, air limbah industri tahu tanpa pengolahan khusus dapat melebihi standar kualitas dengan kadar BOD antara 5.000-10.000 mg/l dan kadar COD antara 7.000-12.000 mg/l. Untuk mengatasi masalah ini, selain menggunakan lumpur aktif, para peneliti juga sedang mengeksplorasi penggunaan teknologi Aerobic Granular Sludge (AGS). AGS melibatkan mikroorganisme dalam bentuk agregat granula untuk mengolah air limbah secara efisien. Teknologi ini meningkatkan efisiensi pengolahan, mengurangi kebutuhan ruang, dan mampu menangani beban organik tinggi secara efektif. Meskipun teknologi granular aerobik menjanjikan, penelitian masih terus dilakukan untuk lebih memahami karakteristiknya dan mengoptimalkan aplikasinya dalam berbagai industri dan kondisi lingkungan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi potensi penerapan teknologi Aerobic Granular Sludge (AGS) dalam mengolah air limbah industri tahu yang mengandung bahan organik tinggi dan kandungan amonia yang signifikan sehingga memenuhi standar kualitas yang diizinkan.
Exhibiting the Extractive: Bitumen in Fort McMurray
Authors: French Elysia
Published: January 2025

This article explores how bitumen is curated by the Fort McMurray Oil Sands Discovery Centre and, by extension Suncor’s recent, but no longer operational, ‘Experience the Energy’ tour. In doing so, I seek to examine the visual culture of bitumen as produced from the perspective of industry. The Fort McMurray Oil Sands Discovery Centre is a provincially-funded, industry-sponsored facility operated jointly by Alberta Culture and Tourism and the province’s Historic Sites and Museum Branch. The Centre’s central focus is education and, to enhance this focus, it incorporates entertainment and interactive exhibitions with bitumen throughout, which help to communicate its representation of the histories of the tar sands. I present Suncor’s ‘Experience the Energy’ tour as an extension of the curatorial practices at the Oil Sands Discovery Centre. To do so, I recount my own experience with tar sands tourism in Fort McMurray, framing Suncor’s industrial tourism as a curation of the physical experience of extractive sites, while connecting this to the visual tactics employed at the Centre. In the article, I emphasize how an established visual language, rooted in settler-colonial and extractive-capitalist practices, is adapted to maintain and advance the industrial operations and development of the tar sands. To better understand how visitors come to know bitumen and extraction in these spaces, I consider the sensory as a key component of visual culture to explore how the tar sands industry calls upon visual culture to advance its cause, and suggest that both the tour and the Centre are a kind of multisensory curatorial project—one based on bitumen.

La presente investigación compara las destrezas lectoescritoras de estudiantes de dos universidades españolas al comenzar y al finalizar los estudios de Graduado-a en Maestro de Educación Primaria. Se selecciona un diseño de investigación exploratorio con observaciones de carácter transversal que sustituyan la ausencia de asignación aleatoria. Del análisis estadístico inferencial de los datos, recopilados a través de un cuestionario y de una prueba de habilidades básicas de comprensión lectora que requiere el desempeño de dos tareas de síntesis, se desprende que no existen diferencias significativas entre grupos de estudio. Los resultados obtenidos muestran un nivel de competencia de comprensión menor del esperado para estudiantes universitarios, atendiendo a sus dificultades para identificar las ideas importantes a nivel de párrafo y para organizar jerárquicamente dichas ideas elaborando un mapa conceptual. Se observa que dicho alumnado, independientemente del momento formativo en el que se encuentre y de la universidad en la que esté matriculado, no utiliza modelos de tarea adecuados que permitan obtener resultados satisfactorios. Estos hallazgos pueden resultar de interés para que las instituciones universitarias responsables de la formación inicial docente analicen las competencias de comprensión lectora de sus estudiantes, así como para desarrollar planes de formación del profesorado en este ámbito.

Published: January 2025

Este artículo trata del concepto de mapa, asumido este en términos genéricos como cualquier forma de representación de territorios y comunidades de carácter icónico y que de manera física o virtual o por cualquier otro medio, da cuenta de un territorio donde podrían o no existir comunidades humanas, de esta manera se asume el concepto de mapa como un artefacto cultural, que en primer lugar tiene un carácter eminentemente polisémico, pues depende de la multiversalidad de lo que es interpretado, ello en una perspectiva semiológica, por otra parte también se considera que el mapa es una proyección de los prejuicios de quién lo interpreta, por lo tanto se trata antes que nada de un signo o de un sistema de signos, que vive todas las vicisitudes como un orientador de la comprensión de los espacios y del habitar humano, como también de la cosmovisión de las culturas respecto de sus entornos y de territorios foráneos.

Published: January 2025

Neuro-POCUS (Point-of-Care Ultrasound in neurology) is the international abbreviation for a new strategic direction in neuromedicine. It provides the clinician with a unique opportunity to perform neuroimaging themselves during patient examination or surgical manipulation to solve specific practical problems. In the domestic literature, the term «clinical-sonographic examination» was proposed for this approach. This direction is of particular importance in screening diagnosis, monitoring and surgical navigation in the most frequent and dangerous structural intracranial changes (hematomas, tumors, cysts, hydrocephalus, etc.). For the development of Neuro-POCUS technologies, an international scientific group was established in 2022, according to the report of which the assessment of brain parenchyma is discussed in the framework of monitoring midline shift and third ventricle width and mainly using transcranial color-coded duplex sonography. A review of the literature and our own 30 years of research suggest that B-mode transcranial ultrasonography is the optimal option for brain imaging within Neuro-POCUS. The history, foundations and prospects of Neuro-POCUS are discussed.

Blood concentration of neurotrophic factors (NTF) in patients with cerebral palsy after the use of the “non-invasive brain-computer-exohand interface” technique demonstrated a decrease in the level of NTFs on the 10th day after rehabilitation training, which was accompanied by an improvement in motor, cognitive functions and emotional status of patients. Moreover, different NTFs demonstrated different levels of concentration changes. The literature base about influence of NTFs on the mechanisms of neuroplasticity was analyzed. The review presents the results of studies on the therapeutic targets of NTFs and their different abilities to penetrate the blood-brain barrier, which apparently explains their participation in the processes of neuroplasticity. Analysis of literature data indicates the active involvement of NTF in the mechanisms of functional restructuring and their possible role in restoring motor activity in children with cerebral palsy, positive effect on cognitive functions and emotional status.

Cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy, vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) is a hereditary slowly progressive adultonset disorder characterized by sersory and cerebellar ataxia, sensory polyneuropathy and bilateral vestibulopathy. In most cases the cause of this disease is biallelic AAGGG-repeat expansion in the RFC1 gene, encoding eplication factor C subunit 1. Today, CANVAS is one of the most common forms among late-onset hereditary ataxias in the world. The differential diagnosis of this syndrome is carried out with a wide range of hereditary and acquired disorders, which are characterized by a combination of cerebellar and sensory ataxia, polyneuropathy and vestibulopathy. The article describes two clinical cases in which the diagnosis of CANVAS caused several diffculties. The phenotypic diversity of this syndrome and the role of videooculography in the diagnostic algorithm and diagnosis verification are discussed.

Specialised nutritional supplements that promote wound healing shorten the duration of pressure ulcer (PU) healing, but such data are limited in tube-fed patients.

Material and methods. The effectiveness of a specialized enteral tube feed with arginine, zinc and antioxidants (Nutrison Advanced Cubison) in hospitalized patients with PUs was assessed in a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open-label, parallel-group study involving 67 adult patients with stroke or traumatic brain injury with stage 2–3 pressure ulcers. Tube feed using a specialized product (SpP) was compared with standard enteral tube feed (StdP).

Results. Over 28 days, the PU area in the SpP group decreased by an average of 76.9% while in the StdP group by 51.3%; the difference was 26% (95% CI from 5.9% to 45.3%; p = 0.013). By the end of the trial, a decrease in the average PU area by 20% and more from the initial size occurred in most patients in both groups, while the difference between the groups was statistically insignificant (SpP 86.2% vs StdP 69.2%; p > 0.05). The change in total score and components of PUSH© score over 28 days was significant for intragroup changes in both groups (p < 0.001), but intergroup change was statistically insignificant. By the end of the study, complete healing of the PU occurred in 62% of patients in the SpP group compared with 34.6% of patients in the StdP group (difference 27%, 95% CI from 1,6% to 56,5%; p = 0.04). The mean time for complete PU healing was reduced by 3.2 days (SpP 21,3 days vs StdP 24,4 days, 95% CI 1.4 to 4.9; p = 0.005).

Conclusion. Specialised enteral tube feed stimulates PU healing in hospitalised patients compared with a standard tube feed.

Mangrove forests are tropical coastal vegetation communities consisting of several species that are able to grow and develop in muddy tidal areas. Coastal areas have a variety of community activities in utilizing coastal natural resources in the economic sector. Social condition factors and lack of understanding of the functions and benefits of mangroves also affect the damage to mangrove ecosystems. This directly causes ecological impacts that threaten the sustainability of mangrove forests. The purpose of this study was to analyze the damage and diversity of mangroves in the mangrove ecosystem area of Tanjung Solok Village. This research method uses indepth interview techniques, and observation in the field with data collection including documentation and sample identification. The results showed that the damage to mangrove ecosystems in Tanjung Solok Village, Kuala Jambi District was categorized as low or damaged, because the results obtained tree density <1000 trees/ha. This is caused by activity factors and lack of knowledge of the surrounding community. As well as the level of diversity (H') obtained in Tanjung Solok Village, Kuala Jambi District, obtained a value of 2.033. This shows that the level of diversity of mangrove vegetation in Tanjung Solok Village, Kuala Jambi Subdistrict is in the medium category.

Objective: The study aimed to identify key trends in modern oncology by analysing developments and innovations in early cancer diagnosis and treatment methods. Using a comparative analysis of scientific and healthcare systems in Albania, Bulgaria, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan, the study examined innovative diagnostic approaches such as liquid biopsy, biomarker discovery, genetic testing, advanced imaging techniques, and artificial intelligence algorithms.
Methods: For treatment, it highlighted immunotherapy, personalised medicine, cellular, targeted, and combination therapies, as well as the development of radiopharmaceuticals and 3D modelling for surgical planning.
Results: Key findings revealed that the lack of economic support for research is the primary barrier to innovation in all four countries. Bulgaria, benefiting from European Union membership, demonstrated the highest potential for advancing oncology due to its stronger scientific, technical, regulatory, and social indicators. In contrast, Albania's transition economy and Kyrgyzstan’s social and geographical challenges significantly hinder progress. The findings underline the need for enhanced economic investment, international cooperation, and regulatory support to address disparities and foster the implementation of innovative oncology practices globally.
Conclusion: This regional analysis provides insights into how tailored approaches can bridge the gap between low- and high-income countries in advancing cancer care.

The relevance of the study is expressed in the fact that the development of Kazakh cinema through the lens of social and political problems has until recently received little attention, although its role in cultu-re and modern society is very great. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of the state policy of Kazakhstan on the national cinema. The study analysed the current legislative documents rela-ted to the field of cinema and provided a brief overview of them. The ideas of state policy in contempo-rary Kazakh cinema were explored, cinema in terms of the country’s social and cultural dynamics were described, and a factor analysis of the current state of cinema in Kazakhstan was conducted. Furthermo-re, the main goal of the state policy and its main areas in the matter of cinematography were defined. The study presented an analysis of the influence of different social and political systems in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan on the national cinema. In addition, the study considered con-temporary Kazakh films, the key areas of state policy, which found their role in the production of cine-ma. The results showed that governmental involvement in the cultural process of the country is needed. Support for national cinema is the main current in the field of state management of the film industry. Today, funding for film projects favours national cinema; films of social significance have a spiritual and non-commercial value. Comedies are considered to be the most successful profitable genre in Kazakh-stan’s cinema, although they stay low-budget in production. Not only the government but also the other stakeholders of the population need to be involved in the development of the film industry. The practi-cal significance of this study lies in the fact that its findings can be used as a basis for the preparation of training disciplines: “World Cinema Process”, “Cinematography”, “Modern Kazakh Cinema Process”.
