Aim: Analysis of the morbidity of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis and acute flaccid paralysis and the results of virological investigation of the patients on 14 territories of the Russian Federation in 1998-2017. Materials and methods: We investigated nearly 3000 stool samples from paralytic patients and contact persons. Isolation and identification of polioviruses were performed according to WHO recommendations with the help of cell lines RD and L20B. We conducted the sequencing of the genome fragments VP3-VP1, VP1-2A and full sequencing of genome region VP1 of 45 poliovirus strains. Results: From 1998 till 2017 1257 cases of acute flaccid paralysis were registered on 14 territories of Russia, 15 cases of which (1,2%) were classified as vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis. From these patients 9 children were non vaccinated and 6 children received from one to four doses of oral poliomyelitis vaccine. The percentage of the detection of polioviruses from the patients and contact persons in different years was not equal and constituted from 3, 4±0,89% to 9, 5±0,79%. All in all from the patients with acute flaccid paralysis and contact persons we isolated 191 polioviruses, 60 of them belonged to type 1, 55 polioviruses were identified as types 2 and 76 as type 3. Some cases of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis are described in the article; polioviruses were isolated from all these patients. The sequencing of the genome fragments of 45 poliovirus strains showed that the majority of them had the nucleotide substitutions including neurovirulent substitutions. Conclusion:In order to prevent the risk of the appearance of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis it is necessary to maintain the high quality of surveillance of poliomyelitis and acute flaccid paralysis, to ensure the 95% coverage of children with poliomyelitis vaccine, to minimize the cases of groundless delays of vaccination according to medical recommendations and parents’ refusals to vaccinate children against poliomyelitis and to respect strictly the National calendar of vaccination.

Objective: to establish clinical and epidemiological patterns of chickenpox in adults in the Primorsky Territory to improve treatment and prevention work. Materials and methods: The study used statistics on the incidence of chicken pox in the Primorsky Territory from 2009 to 2017 and demographic data on the population for the specified period. A clinical characteristic of 102 cases of varicella in patients hospitalized in the infectious disease ward of Primorsky Regional Clinical Hospital No. 2 (Vladivostok) in 2015-2017 is given. Results: From 2009 to 2017, the incidence of chickenpox in the Primorsky Territory was consistently high, with an average of 636.2 per 100,000 population. Analysis of the structure of patients showed that the maximum proportion of cases of chicken pox occur in organized children 3-6 years old (55.9%), schoolchildren (19.1%) and children 1–2 years old (11.6%). The proportion of 15–17 year olds was 3.0%. Adults, from 18 years old – 4.9%. The proportion of unorganized children 3–6 years old (2.9%) and children in the first year of life (2.6%) is not high. High risk of infection was detected in Vladivostok (57.8 per 100.000), Yakovlevsky (52.1% ooo), Olginsky (45.9% ooo), Lazovsky (42.8% ooo) and Shkotovsky (40, 2% ooo) areas. In the annual dynamics, a pronounced spring-summer seasonal rise was formed. The clinical course of varicella in the group of adults was characterized by an average duration of the initial period of the disease of 1.4 ± 0.7 days. For clinical diagnosis, an important time was the appearance of the rash, which varied within four days. The phenomenon of “spillage” was noted in 97% of patients. The rash was polymorphic, with the formation of crusts. The period of height was characterized by the presence of catarrhal manifestations. The granularity of the posterior pharyngeal wall was observed in all patients without exception. In 84.3% of patients there was a bright hyperemia of the pharynx. In 14.7% of cases, enantema was detected on the soft palate, palatine arches, and posterior pharyngeal wall. Dry cough was detected in 28 of 103 patients, which probably increased their epidemiological significance. Findings: The clinical picture of varicella was typical and was represented by a combination of intoxication, exanthema, and catarrhal syndrome. The epidemic process of varicella in adults in Primorsky Krai was characterized by relative autonomy of manifestations in adults, children up to one year old, and unorganized children. When implementing chickenpox epidemiological surveillance, priority should be given to interventions in epidemic foci.

Aim. To estimate the distribution of genotypes and subgenotypes of the hepatitis B virus among military personnel with chronic viral hepatitis B. Materials and methods. The work used samples of blood plasma and biopsy material obtained from 90 active or retired military personnel with chronic viral hepatitis B with various degrees of fibrosis undergoing treatment in St. Petersburg. Primary detection of HBV was carried out by isolating nucleic acids (NK) from the blood plasma using the «AmplePrime Ribo-prep» commercial kit (FBIS CRIE, Moscow). Specific primers were used for the amplification and sequencing reaction. Overlapping primer pairs were used, jointly flanking 1475 base pairs (bp) fragment, including the recommended for HBV genotyping the 1169 bp Pre-S1/Pre-S2/S. Results. Among 90 samples from patients with chronic viral hepatitis B from different regions of the Russian Federation, HBV subgenotypes are represented in the following ratios: D2 = 45.6% (n=41), D1 = 32.2% (n=29), D3 = 13.3% (n=12), A2 = 6.7% (n=6), D4 and A1 by 1.1%, respectively. The distribution of HBV subgenotypes from the North Caucasian federal district (D1 – 63.6%, D2, D3, D4, A2 – by 9.1%) was significantly different from the distribution among patients from the Central and North-Western federal districts (D1-20, 9%, D2 – 58%, D3 – 16.3%, A2 – 4.8%) (χ2=11,9приp=0,0076, df=3). Uncharacteristic for the Russian Federation subgenotypes D4 and A1, representing single imported cases. The tendency to shift the distribution of genovariants due to imports of the corresponding HBV subgenotypes from other countries, including the Central Asian countries, is discussed. Conclusion. A systematic study of the HBV isolates phylogeny provides new information about the HBV subgenotypes distribution among certain population groups, including military personnel.

Congenital cytomegalovirus infection contributes substantially to the incidence of sensorineural hearing loss, which may be late-onset, progressive or fluctuating. It leads to delayed diagnostics of hearing impairments in children. The aim is to assess the frequency and time of hearing loss occurrence in children with congenital cytomegalovirus infection and to develop the audiological follow-up algorithm adapted for those children. Materials and methods: 60 children with verified congenital cytomegalovirus infection have been involved into research as the main group. 61 children, with other sensorineural hearing loss risk factors, but excluding congenital cytomegalovirus, were included into the comparison group. The age of children ranged from 2 months to 7 years old. The follow-up duration was up to 4 years. Audiological assessment included: auditory brainstem response, auditory steady state response, otoacoustic emissions, impedancometry, pure tone audiometry (its type depended on the children’s age and development level) and speech tests. Results: Hearing loss was revealed in 17% of the main group, it varied from mild to severe degree. Among these children 30% developed late-onset hearing loss. 5% of children of the comparison group were identified with congenital hearing loss. Assessment of central auditory pathways function has been performed in children elder than 4 years old: 70% of children of the main group and 10% of children of the comparison one were identified with auditory processing disorders. The received data may be used by otolaryngologists, audiologists, pediatricians and infectious diseases physicians. The developed follow-up admits timely diagnostics of sensorineural hearing loss in children with congenital cytomegalovirus.

Published: October 2019

In Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) device and network, wireless sensor network (WSN) is an important component. Routing protocol is the critical component of WSN. As the WSN may be attacked by all kinds of intruders, the survivability of WSN is important to IIoT security. To precisely evaluate the systematic survivability ability under external attack and internal security mechanism, a novel survivability entropy-based quantitative evaluation metric is proposed to calculate the systematic survivability ability of WSN routing protocol. Numerical analysis and simulation experiments are combined to precisely calculate the survivability entropy metric. To validate the evaluation approach, NS2 (Network simulator) is used to simulate the DoS attack and security mechanism in WSN. Experimental results show that the novel survivability evaluation metric and method can precisely evaluate the systematic survivability ability of WSN.

Published: October 2019

Introduction/Objective. The chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations have a major impact on outcomes of COPD patients. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) interrupts the vicious circle caused by exacerbations. It has not been widely implemented as standard of COPD treatment yet. The aim of study was to examine the effectiveness of PR in prevention of exacerbations. Method. The prospective observation study included stable COPD patients between January 2015 and December 2018. The effects of PR on exacerbation rates were evaluated using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, taking into account age, comorbidity, vaccination status (against seasonal flu), body mass index (BMI). Results. Study included 1,674 patients (956 males, age 65.93 ?} 8.45, current or ex-smokers 94.9%; 21 ? BMI 1,406 patients, 84%, FEV1 < 80% 1,448 patients, 86.5%). The PR rate was 48.1%. There was significant difference in PR status with respect to age (p = 0.020), comorbidities (p = 0.015), FEV1 (p < 0.001), respiratory symptoms using COPD assessment test (CAT) score (p < 0.001), vaccination against seasonal flu (p < 0.001). Exacerbations occurred more frequently in non-PR patients (415 (51.6%) vs. 641 (73.7%), p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, PR (RR 0.421; 95% CI (0.307?0.577); p < 0.001) and BMI ? 21kg/m2 (RR 0.605; 95% CI (0.380?0.965); p = 0.035) were independent protective factors and CAT score >10 (RR 2.375; 95% CI (1.720?3.280); p < 0.001) and FEV1 < 80% (RR 2.021; 95% CI (1.303?3.134); p = 0.002) were independent risk factors from exacerbations. Conclusion. Patients who successfully completed PR treatment had significantly less frequent exacerbations compared to patients that not pass through PR program.

OBJECTIVE

Prediabetes and type 2 diabetes are associated with structural brain abnormalities, often observed in cognitive disorders. Besides visible lesions, (pre)diabetes might also be associated with alterations of the intrinsic organization of the white matter. In this population-based cohort study, the association of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes with white matter network organization was assessed.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

In the Maastricht Study, a type 2 diabetes–enriched population-based cohort study (1,361 subjects with normal glucose metabolism, 348 with prediabetes, and 510 with type 2 diabetes assessed by oral glucose tolerance test; 52% men; aged 59 ± 8 years), 3 Tesla structural and diffusion MRI was performed. Whole-brain white matter tractography was used to assess the number of connections (node degree) between 94 brain regions and the topology (graph measures). Multivariable linear regression analyses were used to investigate the associations of glucose metabolism status with network measures. Associations were adjusted for age, sex, education, and cardiovascular risk factors.

RESULTS

Prediabetes and type 2 diabetes were associated with lower node degree after full adjustment (standardized [st]βPrediabetes = −0.055 [95% CI −0.172, 0.062], stβType2diabetes = −0.256 [−0.379, −0.133], Ptrend < 0.001). Prediabetes was associated with lower local efficiency (stβ = −0.084 [95% CI −0.159, −0.008], P = 0.033) and lower clustering coefficient (stβ = −0.097 [95% CI −0.189, −0.005], P = 0.049), whereas type 2 diabetes was not. Type 2 diabetes was associated with higher communicability (stβ = 0.148 [95% CI 0.042, 0.253], P = 0.008).

CONCLUSIONS

These findings indicate that prediabetes and type 2 diabetes are associated with fewer white matter connections and weaker organization of white matter networks. Type 2 diabetes was associated with higher communicability, which was not yet observed in prediabetes and may reflect the use of alternative white matter connections.

OBJECTIVE

To estimate real-world off-label use of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in patients with type 1 diabetes, estimate rates of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), and compare them with DKA rates observed in sotagliflozin clinical trials.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

We identified initiators of SGLT2 inhibitors in the Sentinel System from March 2013 to June 2018, determined the prevalence of type 1 diabetes using a narrow and a broad definition, and measured rates of DKA using administrative claims data. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) were calculated using age- and sex-specific follow-up time in Sentinel and age- and sex-specific DKA rates from sotagliflozin trials 309, 310, and 312.

RESULTS

Among 475,527 initiators of SGLT2 inhibitors, 0.50% and 0.92% met narrow and broad criteria for type 1 diabetes, respectively. Rates of DKA in the narrow and broad groups were 7.1/100 person-years and 4.3/100 person-years, respectively. Among patients who met narrow criteria for type 1 diabetes, rates of DKA were highest for patients aged 25–44 years, especially females aged 25–44 years (19.7/100 person-years). More DKA events were observed during off-label use of SGLT2 inhibitors in Sentinel than would be expected based on sotagliflozin clinical trials (SIR = 1.83; 95% CI 1.45–2.28).

CONCLUSIONS

Real-world off-label use of SGLT2 inhibitors among patients with type 1 diabetes accounted for a small proportion of overall SGLT2 inhibitor use. However, the risk for DKA during off-label use was notable, especially among young, female patients. Although real-word rates of DKA exceeded the expectation based on clinical trials, results should be interpreted with caution due to differences in study methods, patient samples, and study drugs.
Teaching Students to Create Different Types of Part Models within the Framework of an Engineering Graphics Course
Authors:   Moscow State Technical University (National Research University), Novik Natalia Vladimirovna
Published: October 2019

The paper discusses the methodology of teaching students to create three-dimensional models using the AutoCAD system in the course of engineering graphics, used by students enrolled in the specialty 09.03.04 "Software engineering". Aspects are pre-sented that need to be highlighted when mastering the subject, to ensure interdisciplinary links with the discipline of "Computer graphics", which students study later. When learning the methods of con-structing models in the course of engineering graphics, it is suggested to consider various types of models in more detail: networks, procedural sur-faces, NURBS surfaces, and solids. To ensure the consistency and continuity of the educational process, it is recommended at the stage of familiari-zation with computer-aided design systems to show the main differences in their functionality – creating objects, the internal format of their storage – and demonstrate the various editing options that result from these differences.
The Development of the System of Continuous Education as a Condition for the Employment of a Specialist in the Modern Labor Market
Authors:   Institute of Management, a branch of the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, Zolin Igor Evgenyevich
Published: October 2019

The paper specifies the requirements of modern employers to potential employees based on the re-sults of an expert survey. The growing social signifi-cance for employers of such personal qualities of a modern specialist as activity, education, creativity, independence, ability to self-education is proved. It was revealed that the potential employee does not acquire most of the necessary qualities and compe-tencies at the university – they are a product of edu-cation in the process of socialization, the formation of professional culture. The author’s view on the importance of continuous education and self-education for the success of a professional career is reflected. An author's classification of the principles of continuous education system development (RAFF: regularity, availability, freedom, flexibility) is proposed, considering the socially significant inter-ests of labor market subjects. The presented results can contribute to a deeper understanding of the actual problems of the labor market, including the issues of taking into account the requirements of employers to potential employees and professional creative training through the system of continuous education.
Features of Socio-Psychological Adaptability of an Individual Depending on his Attitude to Alcohol
Authors: Kubekova Aliya Salavatovna
Published: October 2019

The paper touches on the problem of the formation of the socio-psychological adaptability of an indi-vidual depending on his attitude to alcohol. In the course of the research, the method "diagnosis of socio-psychological adaptation" by C. Rogers, R. Diamond and the method "diagnosis of interperson-al relationships" by T. Leary were applied. It is con-cluded that socio-psychological adaptability is higher among workers who use alcohol, but this happens due to their ignoring of distracting factors, reduces the importance of obstacles for this group of respondents and increases the likelihood of ex-treme behavior. Workers who use alcohol have low self-esteem, a pronounced desire for dominance (according to T. Leary's method), desire to escape from reality into a world of illusions, fantasies. The obtained data can be used by psychologists in de-veloping recommendations in order to increase the effectiveness of the prevention of alcohol abuse.

PERIODIC SOLUTIONS OF A MODEL OF LOTKA-VOLTERRA WITH VARIABLE STRUCTURE AND IMPULSES
Authors: Dishlieva Katya , Dishlieva Katya
Published: October 2019

We consider a generalized version of the classical Lotka Volterra model with differential equations. The version has a variable structure (discontinuous right hand side) and the solutions are subjected to the discrete impulsive effects. The moments of right hand side discontinuity and the moments of impulsive effects coincide and they are specific for each solution. Using the Brouwer fixed point theorem, sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solution are found.

Published: October 2019

The main purpose of this paper is to introduce a new discrete compound distribution, namely Poisson Transmuted Lindley distribution (PTL) which offers a more flexible model for analyzing some types of countable data. The proposed distribution is accommodate unimodel, bathtub as well as decreasing failure rates. Most of the statistical and reliability measures are derived. For the estimation purposes the method of moment and maximum likelihood methods are studied for PTL. Simulation studies are conducted to investigate the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators. A real life application for PTL is introduced to test its goodness of fit and examine its performance compared with some other distributions.
Revitalizing urban revitalization in Poland: Towards a new agenda for research and practice
Authors: Kusiak Joanna
Published: October 2019

As a starting point, this paper recognizes the key role of the notion of ‘revitalization’ in the development of the multi-sectoral approach to urban renewal in Poland over the last 15 years. Thus, while acknowledging the important limitations of revitalization programs to date, it aims not so much to reject or criticize the current model revitalization, but rather to ‘revitalize’ the notion of revitalization itself. Based both on interviews with engaged practitioners of revitalization in Poland and on a review of practices existing elsewhere, this paper seeks to infuse the Polish imaginary of revitalization with transformative policy agendas.

On SOMA Parallelization with Android Devices
Authors: Bukáček Michal
Published: October 2019

Today's world is full of new, small, personal handhelds. They are called smartphones or tablets. The machines themselves always have less power than desktop computers or even mainframes which were left behind. Their computational power can be increased when they are joined together in a group and are addressing one common task. To check and demonstrate the possibility of the use of mobile devices being joined to a group, the SOMA algorithm was chosen. The well as known functions, for example; De Jong, Rosenbrock, Rastrigin or Schwefel will be used and their extremes (minimums) will be realized. The goal is to test the speed of these mobile devices to realize the extremes of more dimensional functions. The advantages and disadvantages of this swarm linking will be shown. This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium provided the original work is properly cited.
Modal Kinetic Energy Change Ratio-based Damage Assessment of Laminated Composite Beams using Noisy and Incomplete Measurements
Authors: Dinh-Cong Du , Vo-Van Linh , Nguyen-Quoc Dung , Nguyen-Thoi Trung
Published: October 2019

Modal kinetic energy (MKE) feature has been mostly employed for optimal sensor layout strategies; nevertheless, little attention is paid to use the feature to the field of structural damage detection. The article presents the extensive applicability of MKE change ratio (MKECR), a good damage sensitive parameter, to damage localization and quantification of laminated composite beams. The formulation of the parameter is based on the closed-form of element MKE sensitivity. The performance of the offered damage detection method is numerically verified by a clamped-clamped composite beam and a two-span continuous composite beam with different hypothetical damage scenarios. The influence of incomplete mode shapes, various noise levels as well as damage magnitudes on damage prediction results are also investigated. The obtained results from these numerical examples indicate that the offered method reliably localize the actually damaged elements and approximately estimate their severities, even under incomplete measurements at a high noise level.This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium provided the original work is properly cited.

Determining Outcome in Children and Adolescents After Concussion: Viewing Things More Holistically
Authors: Gagnon Isabelle
Published: October 2019

Synopsis

Pediatric and adolescent concussion is an increasingly high-profile public health issue, but it is also a highly heterogeneous phenomenon. Many factors interact dynamically to influence the recovery trajectory of adolescents and children. Diagnostic assessment must include domains other than self-reported symptoms, yet many prognostic models of outcome focus solely on the presence or absence of postconcussion symptoms to determine recovery. Function after concussion (recovery or persistence of problems) is the result of an interaction between biological, psychological, and social factors. Despite biopsychosocial models of assessment being advocated in rehabilitation for the last 20 years, they are still not routinely implemented in the evaluation of concussions, along the recovery trajectory, in children and adolescents. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health is a framework anchored in a biopsychosocial perspective that can guide clinicians and researchers to include multiple perspectives in their assessments or research designs. By focusing on the patient as a person, researchers and clinicians can provide a more holistic approach that has the potential to contribute to a more successful and sustainable pediatric and adolescent concussion care model.

Published: October 2019

*8-amino 2-naphthol (8A2NP) is an interesting molecule containing both proton acceptor (-NH2) and proton donating (-OH) groups. Our earlier investigation on the photophysics / photochemistry of 8A2NP reveals that its prototropic behavior is sensitive to the solvent polarity and pH. Interesting photophysical properties of 8A2NP in homogeneous environment prompting towards the study of the said probe in in different surfactants. In the present work, 8A2NP has been studied in cationic (CTAB), anionic (SDS) and non-ionic (TX-100) surfactants and changes in the excited state deactivation are explored in the mentioned surfactants
A General and Systematic Method for In-Silico Chemical Vapour Deposition

Published: October 2019

The chemical vapour deposition (CVD) process, used to produce high quality, large area thin film coatings, is in many aspects a black box, where input parameters are adjusted to control the final deposition output, but where the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Modelling and simulations are sometimes used to unveil these mechanisms, but surprisingly few studies on CVD modelling use a systematic approach to ensure the model is adequate for its purpose. This leads to models that are useful only for certain experimental setups, or simulations resulting in already known data. Here, we present a comprehensive method for CVD modelling that certifies robustness and correct handling in all parts. The method is demonstrated using silicon carbide (SiC) as model system, explaining several experimental observations and accurately matching measured data without tuning of the model. The method thus paves the way for a general predictive CVD modelling tool for future materials and processes.
THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL UNIVERSALITY OF MEMORY AND OBLIVION CATEGORIES IN LITERATURE
Authors: Bren Valerii
Published: October 2019

This research is devoted to the concepts of memory and oblivion in terms of the universality of these categories for literature, and their interdisciplinary in history, culturology, and sociology. The theoretical basis for analysis in the artistic text is shown on the example of Ukrainian and foreign researchers, specified and illustrated manifestations in the Ukrainian novels by Y. Andrukhovych, O. Zabuzhko, S. Zhadan, O. Irvanetz, etc. Literature is the centre of individual and national cultural memory and a means of creating of it. However, it becomes a platform for social discourse of memory, as well as the preservation of individual memory as a genetic key in the text. Consequently, modern literary studies require a well-balanced approach and analysis of the ways, means, methods, and forms of its functioning in contemporary art. Such approach will enable an understanding of the past experience, as well as assessments of contemporary imprints of events in the future, on a qualitatively new level.
ONTOLOGY OF THE UKRAINIAN WRITER-EXILE IN MEMOIRS
BY ULAS SAMCHUK “FIVE PAST ELEVEN: NOTES AT A RUN”
Authors: Podvyshennyi Alexander
Published: October 2019

The article analyses the little-studied part of the prose legacy of Ulas Samchuk — a book of memoirs ‘Five
past twelve: notes at a run’. Ontological approach to the text allowes to outline the world-wide changes
of the writer in the conditions of war and dehumanization of society. With the help of the imagology
method, the peculiarities of Ulas Samchuk’s attempt to understand the Other (German) who became
a victim of Nazi ideology, tolerance of racial superiority, but ultimately defeated. The writer relies
on Western European philosophy, in particular, the ideas of O. Spengler, K. Jaspers, J. Ortega y Gasset,
which refers to the decline of western culture in connection with the development of civilization, which
seeks for hegemony over mankind. An important role is devoted to reflections on the role and place
of the Ukrainian nation in the transcendental epic of redistribution of the world.
COMPATIVE LITERATURE : FROM COMPARATIVE MEDIACULTURAL STUDIES
TO TRANSMEDIAL NARATOLOGY
Authors: Sverbilova Tetiana
Published: October 2019

The article is devoted to the review of the prospects of multidisciplinary media-cultural studies in modern
comparative literature studies towards comparative cultural studies and transmedial naratology.
Comparative cultural studies syncretically combine the concepts of comparative literary criticism with
the study of culture in the aspect of media-cultural studies, not limited to literature, but also various
arts, mass media, computer games, etc. Literature is understood only as one of the media among other
media. This is a transdisciplinary turn in comparative literature studies. Comparative naratology, and
later transmedial naratology, in turn, is seen as a new discipline on the verge of literary comparativism,
intermedialism, and naratology. The typology of intermedial forms of naratology in the classifications of Werner Wolf, Marie-Laure Ryan, and Jan-Noël Thon is discussed. Modern studies of various medial
forms of narratives, which may also be presented in cinema, painting, graphic arts, ballet, comic books,
and other mediums, and the discovery of the intermedial properties of narratives, lead to a rethinking
of the fact that all narratives have a purely linguistic nature. Modern naratology as a separate
discipline tends to go beyond purely literary narrative and transfer the concept of narration to other
types of arts. Intermediate methodologies have already entered into comparative literature studies
and have been successfully used in the analysis of literary works. It is about syncretic theoretical and
methodological synthesis of three branches of art studies — naratology, intermedialism and literary
comparativism, cross-disciplinary narrative studies. The combination of narrative and intermedial
approaches to literature is becoming one of the most urgent tendencies of modern both naratology
and the theory and practice of intermediality.
FEATURES OF AGE CATEGORY OF THE BEGINNING OF 20th CENTURY
Authors: Stezhko Svetlana
Published: October 2019

The article analyses propaganda plays which create a broad basis for further consolidation
in the mass consciousness of ideological concepts , mythologues, and behavioral stereotypes, wholly
corresponding to the so-called social order of power and society. One of the most powerful ideological
plots and cliches in plays-agitation is the conceptial plot contrasting «past — future» («old world / order
/ custom — a new world / order / custom»). The plot lines of the propaganda play, in fact, «appropriate»
folklore subjects and fragments of the national historical narrative and rewrite them in accordance
with the class-social ideology of the era. Theatricalization of history, as well as theatricalization of life,
is carried out using ideological cliches, but based on historical stories. In the vast majority of cases, it is
not about the use of plot conflicts from the biographies of historical figures, but on the contrary — about
the rebirth of the plot schemes of folk historical songs, ballads, legends, and translations. The plot lines
of the propaganda plays “take credit” for folk stories and fragments of the national historical narrative and transcribe it according to the class-social ideological settings of the era. This makes it possible
to create a common historical memory. Due to this memory the national heroic pathos of the Ukrainian
past is replaced by the images and metaphors of the class struggle of the proletariat and the peasantry.
This image is wholly opposite to the national-patriotic, partly the existential-philosophical conception
of the past, created in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the dramatic works of Liudmyla Starytska-
Cherniakhivska, Spyrydon Cherkasenko, Hnat Hotkevych, Mykhailo Hrushevskyi, Bohdan Lepky, Ivan
Nechui-Levytskyi and other Ukrainian writers. National pride motive is replaced by the idea of “Soviet
patriotism”, in order for “Ukrainians could celebrate their past, as long as it complemented, but did not
combat with Russian imperial history” as S. Yekelchik notes.
GENRE ORIGINALITY OF NOVEL “WAR WITH THE SALAMANDERS” BY KAREL ČAPEK
Authors: Astrakhan Natalia
Published: October 2019

The article is devoted to the genre originality of the novel “War with the Salamanders” by Czech
writer Karel Čapek (1936). Its goal is to analyse the author`s precept to unite artistic possibilities
connected with various genre modifications of the novel: from Renaissance to postmodern traditions.
Synthetic and polyphonic novel form, created by Karel Čapek in the process of artistic experiment, is
based on using various discursive practices: folklore (animal tale), philosophical (Socratic dialogue,
academic dispute, treatise, report), journalistic and popular science (newspaper and magazine
article), colloquially-everyday (dialogues between the representatives of different cultural, social,
gender, age groups) and others. All of them are united due to the parody-satirical re-creation within
the borders of author’s intention, subordinate to the task to emphasize the deviation of the modern
individual and mass consciousness from the humanistic norm. Based on the different traditions
that determine the evolution of the European novel, Karel Čapek follows the gradual changes that
happened to the “European humanity” in the process of moving from the New to the Newest time.
The author artistically diagnoses the reasons for the transition from the gradual development of culture
to the rapid take-off of civilization, from anthropocentric personal thinking to mass intellectual
speculation, pragmatically oriented towards disguising a cannibalistic pursuit of success and profit.
Especially important in this regard are the developments of the adventurous, socio-psychological
and social, family, fantasy, satirical, anti-utopian, intellectual and philosophical novels, which are
transformed in the context of the parable created by Chápek about man and humanity, outlining and
at the same time denying the postmodern appeal to the whole preliminary development of literature
by the seriousness of the game initiated by the author.

ON THE HAMILTONIAN REDUCTION OF THE ASSOCIATIVITY EQUATIONS IN THE CASE OF FOUR PRIMARY FIELDS
Authors: Strizhova N.A.
Published: October 2019

The associativity equations arose in the papers of Witten (Witten, 1990) and Dijkgraaf, Verlinde, (Dijkgraaf et al., 1991) on two-dimensional topological field theories and subsequently they became to play a key role in many other important domains of mathematics and mathematical physics: in quantum cohomology, Gromov–Witten invariants, enumerative geometry, theory of submanifolds and so on. In Mokhov’s papers (Mokhov, 1984), (Mokhov, 1987) a general fundamental principle stating a canonical Hamiltonian property for the restriction of an arbitrary flow on the set of stationary points of its nondegenerate integral was proposed and proved. In this paper the Hamiltonians of the reductions of the associativity equations with antidiagonal matrix ηij in the case of four primary fields according to Mokhov`s construction is found in an explicit form.
DRIFT-ALFVEN INSTABILITY IN A 2D MAGNETOTAIL CONFIGURATION – THE ADDITION OF BOUNCING ELECTRONS
Authors: Tsareva O.O. , Fruit G. , Louarn P. , Tur A.
Published: October 2019

To explain the possible destabilization of a 2D magnetic equilibrium such as the Near-Earth magnetotail, we developed a kinetic model describing the resonant interaction of electromagnetic fluctuations and bouncing electrons trapped in the magnetosphere, characterized by a high plasma density gradient. A small-β approximation is used in agreement with a small field line curvature.
It has been found that for a quasi-dipole configuration, unstable electromagnetic modes may develop in the current sheet in westward direction with a growth rate of the order of a few tenth of seconds provided that the typical scale of density gradient slope responsible for the diamagnetic drift effects is over one Earth radius or less. This instability growth rate is large enough to destabilise the current sheet on time scales often observed during substorm onset.
