Background: The aim of this study was to develop a prognostic model to identify a subgroup of high-risk patients for non-healing after femoral neck fracture fixation among young adults. The model was implemented by presenting graphically as a nomogram that could be easily used in every day clinical cases.
Methods: Data on a total of 129 patients were included in the current study. The mean [standard deviation (SD)] age of the participants was 42 (13) years and 28% of the patients were women. Harrell’s C statistic was used as a measure of discrimination predictive power. We calculated the Nam-D’Agostino χ 2 to examine calibration for prediction models.
Results: Approximately, 83% of fractures united uneventfully, with avascular necrosis (AVN), fixation nonhealing, non-union, infection, arthroplasty, and death being observed. Body mass index (BMI) and head acetabular trabecular angle (HATA) were inversely associated with the risk of all-cause nonhealing. The final model showed excellent discriminatory power [Harrell’s C statistic: 0.820, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.680-0.960)] and it was well-calibrated [Nam-D’Agostino χ 2 : 10.1, (P = 0.3456)]. A nomogram developed by incorporating significant predictors modelled without discretizing continuous variables.
Conclusion: Using readily available clinical and radiological data, we developed a parsimonious, simple, accurate yardstick to measure the 5-year risk of nonhealing after femoral neck fractures among young adults. In order to add ease-of-use and to promote its integration into clinical practice, the prognostic model was demonstrated visually as a statistic nomogram.

Authors: Jafari Kafiabadi Meisam , Sadighi Mehrdad , Sabaghzadeh Amir , Biglari Farsad , Barazandeh Rad Saber , Ebrahimpour Adel
Published: December 2021

Background: Floating knee injury is defined as ipsilateral fractures of the femur and tibia. It was mostly seen among young men and is generally caused by high-velocity trauma such as motor vehicle accidents and falling from height. Although isolated fractures of the femur or tibia are relatively common in children, floating knee injuries are rare in adolescents and even less frequent in younger children.
Case Report: In this study, we reported a case of bilateral floating knee injuries of a 10-month old girl infant. Radiographic examinations revealed diaphyseal fracture of the left femur and proximal metaphyseal fracture of tibia compatible with floating knee injury type B according to the classification proposed by Letts et al. To the best of our knowledge, there was not any previous report of bilateral infantile floating knee injury in the literature.
Conclusion: Pediatric floating knee injuries are relatively uncommon and extremely rare among infants. The preferred method of treatment is a surgical fixation for all fractures of all ages.

Published: December 2021

Objective: Aim of study is to describe the clinical consequences of hypotension in patient with organophosphate poisoning.
Method: In the retrospective cohort study, we analyzed data of 66 patients with organophosphate poisoning who were treated at Bir Hospital, Nams Kathmandu. Data from those with hypotension and normal blood pressure were compared to identify significant clinical consequences.
Results:  All together 66 patients were enrolled in this study out of which 44(66.7%) were female and 22(33.3%) were male. After analyzing data, we found 18.2% of case with severe poisoning (ACHE < 700 U/L). Among all, 41(62%) were found to have normal blood pressure and 25(37.9%) were found to have low blood pressure. Among those with hypotension, around 56% were found to have prolonged QTc interval, p < 0.003 and there was statistically significant association between QTc prolongation and vasopressor requirement, X2(1) = 22.98, P < 0.001. Patients requiring higher dose to reach atropinization had statistically significant hypotension, P < 0.001. Those with low blood pressure were found to require more days of hospital admission, P < 0.001. Patients with hypotension were found to have severe poisoning both on the basis of POP Score severity grading, 16(64%) P <0.002 and ACHE Severity scale, 7(28%) P < 0.05. In comparison with normal blood pressure group, low blood pressure group had significantly more chance of developing complications like septic shock (2), aspiration pneumonia (5), ARDS (1) and bed sore, P = 0.002. Vasopressor requirement was significantly more among those with low blood pressure, P < 0.001. Most of hypotensive patients were needing ICU care, found to have higher WBC count P = 0.002 and lower GCS Score at admission P < 0.001. There was positive correlation between hypotension and POP Score at admission P < 0.001.
Conclusion: Hypotension is a common complication in patient with organophosphate poisoning and is associated with higher POP Score, lower ACHE level, lower GCS Score, increased vasopressor requirement, more hospital stays, increasing ICU admission, more chance of developing septic shock and aspiration pneumonia.

Published: December 2021

In this paper, we discuss the 3 types of concussion that occur in sports; brain concussion, spinal concussion (spinal cord neurapraxia), and labyrinthine (inner ear) concussion.
Brain concussion data was collected from professional ice hockey players (Tohoku Free Blades, Japan) during 9 consecutive seasons. Spinal cord concussion and Labyrinthine concussion data was collected from athletes who sustained the injury in various sports including ice hockey.
Material and methods
The average incidence of brain concussion in professional ice hockey players was 2.0 per season. All 13 cases of spinal cord concussion were cervical cord concussion. Seven cases showed evidence of spinal cord compression; six cases had no radiological abnormality observed. All cases of labyrinthine concussion were sustained through a traumatic blow to the lateral aspect of the head.
Results
In any sports injury, all three of these concussions can co-exist and requires the team doctor to be at the site in order to fully assess the injury.

Authors: Rahman Md. Magfur
Published: December 2021

Background: The internal mammary artery (IMA) is the graft of choice for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) due to superior patency and enhanced patient survival. Pleurotomy during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) may cause post-operative events, mostly pulmonary complications.
Objective: To assess the impact of intact pleura during left internal mammary artery harvesting on clinical outcome.
Materials and Methods: This Cross sectional observational study was carried out in the Department of Cardiac Surgery, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh from January 2019 to December 2019.101 patients who underwent Department of Cardiac Surgery, BSMMU were enrolled in this study and divided into two groups: group A (n = 48, 36 male and 12 female patients at a mean age of 56.5 ± 11.2 years) underwent routine CABG and pleurotomy and group B (n = 53, 45 male and 8 female patients at a mean age of 55.4 ± 10.3 years) had CABG with intact pleura. The patients were compared regarding their demographic data, surgical data, and postoperative events.
Results: The Incidence Of Postoperative Pericardial Effusion Was Similar Between The Groups, But The Incidence Of Postoperative Pulmonary Complications Such As Pleural Effusion (Except For Mild Pleural Effusion) On The Second (No: 10.4%, mild: 41.7%, moderate: 45.8% and severe: 2.1% in group A versus no: 42.6%, mild: 44.4%, moderate: 13%, and severe: 0 in group B) and fifth postoperative days (no: 27.1%, mild: 33.3%, moderate: 35.4%, and severe: 4.2% in group A versus no: 42.6%, mild: 44.4%, moderate: 13%, and severe: 0 in group B) was significantly lower in group B (p value < 0.001 and p value = 0.007, respectively). Also, the incidence of atelectasis (except for mild atelectasis) on the second (no: 2.1%, mild: 22.9%, moderate: 72.9%, and severe: 2.1% in group A versus no: 9.2%, mild: 59.3%, moderate: 31.5%, and severe: 0 in group B) and fifth postoperative days (no: 22.9%, mild: 39.6%, moderate: 35.4%, and severe: 2.1% in group A versus no: 39.6%, mild: 49.1%, moderate: 11.3%, and severe: 0 in group B) was significantly higher in group A (p value < 0.001 and p value = 0.004, respectively). Postoperative partial oxygen pressure and O2 saturation were similar between the groups, but partial carbon dioxide pressure was significantly lower in group A (p value = 0.017). Amount of bleeding (p value = 0.008) and duration of hospitalization (p value = 0.002) were significantly higher in group A than those in group B.
Conclusion: Our results indicate that keeping the pleura intact has beneficial effects on the respiratory function, without increasing the incidence of postoperative pericardial effusion.

Authors: Sahraoui L. , Ouachem D. , Lombarkia S.
Published: December 2021

Background: The aim is to compare the effectiveness of 3% of natural preparations mixtures based on kaolin associated with garlic, ginger and/or their mixture on the performance, the cutting yield, carcass and bone qualities of broiler. Methods: 192 one-day-old Cobb 500 chicks were assigned to 04 groups of 48 four-replicate chicks (C: without addition; Kgar: 3% kaolin-garlic; Kgin: 3% kaolin-ginger and Kgg: 3% kaolin-garlic-ginger). Result: Results showed that the mixtures significantly improve body weight and feed efficiency at 42 days, with nonetheless a more marked effect for the Kgar group (BW: +4.5%; FCR: -5.5%). In addition, still in favor of the Kgar group, the same tendency was recorded for the yield of chicken ready-to-cook (+3.2%; P=0.02) accompanied by enhanced breast and thighs yields. In terms of quality, the mixtures significantly impacted the meat conservation criteria by reducing water-holding capacity by almost 50% and less abdominal fat deposition. Finally, although not significant, the indicators of bone quality measured (ash content and seedor index) appear better in chickens receiving mixtures. The results of this study show the interest of adding a mixture of kaolin and condiments in improving broiler performance, meat quality and bone characteristics.

Published: December 2021

Background: Pigeon pea is an important legume worldwide that is not cultivated by the farmers in Ndokwa, Delta State. Hence, the study looked at the possibility of evaluating the potential of pigeon pea in Ogume, a community in Ndokwa. Methods: Top soils were collected from a fallowed land mixed thoroughly and filled into 4 kg bags and were divided into 3. The 1st was amended with poultry manure, 2nd was NPK 15:15:15 amended and 3rd was without amendment, tested with two varieties of Cajanus cajan. The experiment was a 2 by 3 factorial, in a completely randomized design with 3 replicates. Residual effects of the amendments were evaluated in 2020. Soil samples were taken to establish the fertility status before amendment and at harvest. Data were taken on the agronomic and yield parameters and were analyzed using ANOVA while means were separated using LSD at P≤0.05. Result: Result obtained showed that the tallest plants (9.83±0.51) were observed in the poultry manure in 2019 while the fallowed plots had the tallest plants (11.17±0.49) in 2020, while in both years, the number of pods and dry pod weight was insignificant among the treatments and varieties. This shows that farmers do not need to spend much finance in amending the soil for pigeon pea cultivation in Ndokwa community, Delta State.

Published: December 2021

Background: Several coastal regions in Vietnam have been suffered from salinity intrusion as a consequence of global climate change. However, there are limited studies on saline intrusion in Vietnam. This paper aimed to investigate the salinity intrusion of water and soil samples in paddy fields along Tam Giang lagoon, Thua Thien Hue province and clarify the factors affecting the salinity level. Methods: We measured the salinity concentrations (EC, Electrical conductivity) of water and soil samples in paddy fields at different distances (400, 600, 800, 1000 and 1200 m) from Tam Giang lagoon. The multiple regression analysis was performed to figure out the factors affecting the salinity concentrations. Result: The salinity concentrations of water were assessed as 48% high saline (10-25 dS m-1), 34% moderately saline (2-10 dS m-1), 2% slightly saline (0.7-2 dS m-1) and 15% non-saline ( less than 0.7 dS m-1). As for surface soil in paddy field, 14.3% moderately saline (4-8 dS m-1), 35.4% slightly saline (2-4 dS m-1) and 50.3% non-saline (0-2 dS m-1) were measured. A significantly positive correlation was found between salinity concentrations of water and soil (n = 175, r = 0.886, p less than 0.01). The distances from salinity sources, Tam Giang lagoon and shrimp pond, were major factors affecting the salinity concentrations. The paddy fields near Tam Giang lagoon and shrimp pond have higher salinity concentrations compared to those areas close to the residential area. The surface water in the paddy field within 1000 m from the salinity source was assessed as saline that might harm the paddy soil and rice production. The results of this study provide highly useful information for local policymakers and farmers about the status of salinity intrusion in paddy land.

Therefore, this research revealed that external and internal morphological data from durian fruits were valuable for recognizing and categorizing D. zibethinus Jelebu variants.
A RESEARCH ON THE USE OF OTTOMAN-ISLAMIC HERITAGE AS A CONSUMPTION OBJECT IN CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURAL PRACTICE
Authors: Artkan Merve
Published: December 2021

The Islamic heritage contains a rich cultural diversity with residential and public buildings such as traditional houses, mosques, palaces, and caravanserais that belong to the Ottoman Empire period. The character of the Islamic tradition is reflected in the environment-form-space organizations and construction techniques of these buildings. But today, the influence of the Islamic heritage has begun to be represented with the dominance of consumption-oriented culture and technology. The references taken from the architecture influenced by Islam are reduced to pure visuality and fashion. Especially, Ottoman architecture and its traditional elements become consumption objects that put visuality in the foreground in contemporary design practices. The Ottoman-Islamic heritage is referenced by imitating traditional buildings’ facades or copying structural elements. These new buildings produced with today’s technologies under the name of continuity of historical culture aim to fulfill the demands of the capitalist economy rather than conveying the essence of design. The study criticizes the transformation of Ottoman-Islamic architecture’s authenticity into “looking/pretending authentic” as a theme. In this context, this study discusses the Ottoman-Islamic heritage has become an object of consumption through a variety of examples that are located in Turkey such as hotels, shopping centers, residential buildings.

Published: December 2021

The present sustainable metropolitan cities and the urban planning procedures in Libya are mainly aimed at reducing the impact on the environment due to the use of resources and improving life quality. Thus, the primary objective of this investigation is to create a model that focuses on reliable and valid urban planning of sustainable development, which highly reflects the Islamic way of live concerning the Libyan cities. The projected study model was tested experimentally using a review of 307 suitable samples, which included urban planning associated parties/industries, like the governmental institutions, academic research institutes, developer consultants, and planning and design engineers. Moreover, evaluations were done using the statistical software package Smart-PLS 2.0. The outcome shows that Libyan urban cities should comprise four major elements: social sustainability, environmental sustainability, economic sustainability, and institutional markers. The indicators for every element are studied in detail later in this investigation, which contributed significantly to gaining a better insight into the model for urban planning of sustainable development concerning the Libyan cities. The results provide useful insights for the urban planning industry in order to introduce the UPSD (Urban Planning of Sustainable Development) model, which is helpful as a strategy for Libyan organizations, urban planning contribution, and development to improve Libyan cities. Also, UPSD can be used to assess developed urban areas to analyze the quality of those areas and finally indicate the areas of enhancement.

Published: December 2021

Historically, in the event of Islam's arrival in the Malay Archipelago, the ways of Islam were adapted to the lifestyle of the Malay community. It's part of modernizing traditional Malay thoughts (akliah) which is influenced by Islamic values and teachings. One of the manifestations of Islamic influence in the traditional Malay lifestyle can be identified from the design and characteristics of Traditional Malay houses, developed with underlying principles of Islam. This paper discusses the application of Islamic principles in Sarawak traditional Malay houses. The research was conducted on three traditional Malay houses chosen from Sarawak and located in Kuching, Sarawak. The methods of observation and case study were employed, focusing on the interior space of the house and certain other design components. In addition, interviews were performed with the owners of the three houses that comprised the samples and focus group discussions with 12 Malay people over 65. The findings indicate that three concepts may be related to Islam's characteristics in Sarawak: the concept of occupant social connections, residential space, and construction and design.

Published: December 2021

Urban planning is a combination of two important factors: arts and science. It is used to facilitate the economic, social, political and physical changes of an area, including the selection of urban location, shape, and impact of urban planning. Comprehensive planning realizes the needs of the population with strong support from the local political authority. This study analyses the relationship between Ibn Khaldun's urban planning principles to Bandar Baru Bangi's urban planning and physical development. This study uses the content analysis method from the primary source of Ibn Khaldun's “Mukadimah” and government documents; the Rancangan Tempatan Majlis Perbandaran Kajang (Pengubahan 4) 2020 [RT MPKj (P4) 2020]. It is the official document that discusses the proposal of land use and physical development in the Majlis Perbandaran Kajang (MPKj) area. Special planning guidelines were used to develop Bandar Baru Bangi (BBB) as "Bandar Ilmu" (Knowledge City) and also part of the Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) project. Urban planning by Ibn Khaldun and the Cyber Centre Planning Guidelines by MPKj in RT MPKj (P4) 2020 have similarities and differences. It is because of the wide time interval between both (years 1344 and 2011). The impact of technology provides different views and plans in both. However, urban planning goals and objectives remain the same: to provide comfort, convenience, and peace for people to conduct daily routines while improving security and progress.
Interescalaridad ecosistémica
Authors: Longo Mariangeles
Published: December 2021

En el contexto actual de “crisis” medioambiental el Antropoceno como modelo existencial representa el principal límite para la humanidad. De ahí que sea fundamental repensar el sentido del proyecto urbano arquitectónico desde un enfoque ecológico capaz de hacer friccionar las contradicciones entre la naturaleza y la ciudad; entre lo natural y lo artificial.
Dada la extensión geográfico paisajística que representa el territorio latinoamericano y la fuerte desigualdad ecológica que lo signa desde sus orígenes el proyecto contemporáneo se asume interescalar; arquitectura posicionada en puntos críticos del territorio que redefine sus límites, bordes y separaciones para abandonar la condición de objeto y transformarse en medio.
Dicho posicionamiento infiere una lectura táctica del territorio, la reinterpretación del concepto biológico y metodológico del ecotono como zona de transición entre unidades de paisaje, estructural y funcionalmente, diferenciadas.
La propuesta impulsada por la Fundación “Cerros Isla” traduce este concepto en un proyecto de integración paisajística que busca recuperar 26 “Cerros Isla” ubicados en la región metropolitana de Santiago de Chile. A partir del entendimiento de los mismos como principal sistema infraestructural bilógico de enlace entre las extremas escalas del paisaje urbano.
Para hacerlo factible se desarrolla una estrategia de diseño que transita desde la macro escala metropolitana hasta la micro escala arquitectónica. El punto crítico se encuentra en la definición de la estructura de borde o “buffer” concebido como un gradiente de naturalidad entre la trama y el perímetro del cerro. Esta zona de amortiguación seminatural está dotada programáticamente tanto para contribuir al esparcimiento de la comunidad como para delimitar las zonas que se desea conservar.
Por otra parte, la programación ecológica del cuerpo del cerro se basa en la estrategia de conexión por “parches” definidos en función de la pendiente, el contorno bajo, las necesidades de las especies nativas y las condiciones hídricas del suelo.
Tanto por su carácter operativo como por su potencialidad ecológica ambas estrategias pueden ser extrapolables a otros casos, entendiendo la ciudad como mosaico integrado de ecosistemas dentro de una red de espacios verdes menores enlazados unos con otros en un único sistema.
Koronavirüs Kaygısının Beklenmeyen Yönleri: Kanser Hastalarının COVID-19 Kaygılarını Etkileyen Faktörlerin İncelenmesi

Published: December 2021

Koronavirüs pek çok kişiyi etkilediği gibi risk grubunda olarak görülen kanser hastaları için de psikolojik bir yük yaratmıştır. Her ne kadar kanser hastalarının psikolojik sağlığını etkileyen psikolojik faktörler geniş bir literatürde ortaya konmuş olsa da, bu faktörlerin küresel bir pandeminin istisnai koşulları altındaki rolünün araştırılması önemli görülmektedir. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmada duygusal kontrol, başa çıkma stilleri ve algılanan kişisel COVID-19 bulaşma tehdidi ile kanser hastalarının pandemi ile ilişkili kaygıları arasındaki ilişkilerin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda, Türkiye'de yaşayan ve kanser tanısı almış 80 katılımcıdan veri toplanmıştır. Hiyerarşik regresyon analizi, pandemi ile ilgili kaygının, depresif duyguların daha düşük kontrolü, başa çıkma tarzı olarak sosyal destek aramanın daha fazla kullanılması ve algılanan COVID-19 bulaşma tehditinin yüksek olması tarafından yordandığını göstermektedir. Ayrıca, metastazı olmayan kanser hastalarının covid-19 pandemisiyle ilgili kaygılarının daha yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Pandemi öncesi alanyazından ayrılan sonuçlar olması, pandemi koşullarının değişen taleplerini dikkate almanın ve kanser hastaları için psikolojik müdahaleleri bu çerçevede yeniden düzenlemenin gereğini vurgulaması açısından önemlidir.

Bu çalışmada, CEM IV 32.5 N tipi çimento kullanarak, pamuk küspesi (0-2 mm) CEN standart kum yerine %0, %1, %2, %3 ve %5 oranlarında hacimce ikame edilerek su/bağlayıcı oranı 1 olan TS EN 998-2 standardına göre sıva harçları üretilmiştir. Elde edilen sıva harcı numunelerinde, pamuk küspesinin sıva harcı performans özelliklerine etkisi belirlenmiştir. Bu amaçla TS EN 998-1 standardına göre yapılması zorunlu olan; kuru birim yoğunluk, 28 günlük basınç dayanımı ve ısıl iletkenlik deneylerine ek olarak yayılma tablası yayılma çapı ve 28 günlük eğilme dayanımı deneyleri yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda; yayılma tablası yayılma çapı değeri 25 cm’nin üzerinde olan, 1.751 g/cm3-1.796 g/cm3 kuru birim yoğunluğu aralığında, 1.98 MPa-2.23 MPa eğilme dayanımı aralığında 9.44 MPa-9.9 MPa (CS IV) basınç dayanımı aralığında ve 0.365 W/mK-0.603 W/mK ısıl iletkenliği aralığında olan pamuk küspesi ikameli sıva harçları elde elde edilmiştir. Isıl iletkenliğin önemli olmadığı yüzeylerde pamuk küspesinin sıva harcı içerisinde hacimce %5 oranına kadar agrega olarak kullanılmasında bir sakınca görülmemekle birlikte malzemenin sürdürülebilirlik açısından, uzun süreli performans özelliklerinin ve fayda-ekonomik katkı analizlerinin de yapılmasının faydalı olacağı düşünülmektedir.

Published: December 2021

Türkiye’de, birçok farklı medeniyetin izlerini taşıyan tarihi yapıların ve anıtların cephelerinde kullanılan başta doğal taşlar olmak üzere kagir yapı malzemeleri, birçok faktöre bağlı olarak hızla bozulmaktadır. Tarihi yapıların kültürel miras değerinin sürdürülebilirliği için özgün kagir malzemenin yerinde korunması, özellikle eski taş işçiliğinin de artık yok olmaya başladığı düşünüldüğünde büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu nedenle, taşların bozulmalarını önleyerek bozulma süreçlerini yavaşlatmak ve bozulma derecelerini azaltmak için taş koruma çalışmaları yapılmaktadır. Bu çalışmalar sırasında yapılan taş sağlamlaştırma uygulamaları kapsamında sağlamlaştırıcı ve/veya su itici kimyasal uygulamalar geliştirilerek kagir yapı malzemelerine uygulanmaktadır. Bu çalışma sonucunda, Türkiye için yeni sayılan ve konuyla ilgili az çalışma bulunan bir alan olan sağlamlaştırıcı ve su itici kimyasal uygulamalara dikkat çekmek, bilgi birikimi arttırmak, belirli kalitede olmasını sağlamak için Türkiye’de de standartlaşması gerektiğini vurgulayarak bilinçli kullanım konusunda katkı koymak amaçlanmıştır. Tüm bu amaçlar doğrultusunda, dünyada taş sağlamlaştırma çalışmalarında kullanılan uluslararası standartlar ve şartnameler doğrultusunda tarihi yapılarda özgün kagir yapı malzemelerini koruma çalışmalarında (özellikle taş koruma çalışmalarında) kullanılabilecek bir yöntem önerisi geliştirilmiştir.

Demographic trends in Uzbekistan have a specific character associated with the active natural growth of the country's population (in the past 50 years, the country's population has increased by 2.86 times and amounted to 35 million people). In the early 1990s, there was an outflow of people to their historical homeland, the migration balance is still having a negative character. The article analyzes the gender and age composition of the population, changes in the dynamics of indicators of the natural movement of the population, in which the fertility rate decreases, life expectancy increases (73.4 years). The high proportion of young people (up to 60% in the population structure) and the annual high growth of labor resources (about 500 thousand people) creates a burden on the internal labor market. There is a significant flow of labor migration to foreign countries, in which the Russian Federation occupies a leading place. The article analyses of the current reforms in the field of regulation of labor migration, which have been significantly developed under the new government of the country (since 2016), including the establishment of organized forms of labor migration. There are highlighted the present main targets of the Government of Uzbekistan, to create conditions and mechanisms that contribute to ensuring managed and regulated migration flows, legitimate rights and interests of citizens of the country. The author analyzes the trends in the normative and legal regulation of the sphere of labor migration, the relevance of the development of a new draft "Law on External Labor Migration" aimed at improving the efficiency of state bodies in solving complex migration issues. There is shown the institutional reform of the Agency for External Labor Migration in the field of migration management. It is proposed to develop a Concept and Strategy of state policy in the field of labor migration, as basic documents relating migration for the future. There are proposed directions of reforms in the migration sphere, establishment of organized forms of labor migration, expansion of international cooperation, powers of various departments of the country, improvement of the system for collecting statistics and data analysis, and conducting scientific research in the migration sphere.

Authors: Dolzhenko Ruslan , Antonov Dmitry
Published: December 2021

In the context of the necessity to implement the national goals, one of the important areas of activity is support of positive demographic processes, promotion of population growth in the country, including through resettlement and migration of residents of other countries. This is relevant not only at the country level, but also at the regional level, each of which has features that must be considered when forming demographic policy. The article analyzes the effectiveness of the program to promote migration and resettlement of compatriots from other countries to Sverdlovsk oblast. Its advantages and limitations are highlighted, its effectiveness is considered on the example of immigrants from several CIS countries: Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan. It is shown that despite the formal fulfillment of the objectives of the program (more than 28 thousand foreigners arrived in Sverdlovsk oblast within 9 years), some meaningful moments were missed, the selection of migrants based on the occupations in demand in the labor market of the region was not fully carry out. There are presented the directions of improving the program for the medium term, which are connected with new approaches to raising the quality of program implementation in Sverdlovsk oblast. It is shown that it is necessary to formalize and improve the mechanism for attracting foreign labor to the region using notification quotas, organized recruitment, modification of selection criteria for the point system, development of the material base and linguistic community for an accelerated adaptation. Analysis showed that promotion of resettlement is necessary with relation to professionals in relevant areas of activity (doctors, teachers), while the demand for unskilled labor is satisfied by migrants.

Demographic situation in Saratov oblast
Authors: Rybakovsky Oleg
Published: December 2021

The article summarizes the results of the reproduction and migration development of Saratov oblast n in the 20th — early 21st centuries. The origin of demographic waves in the age and sex structure of the population of the region over a century is substantiated. It is shown what demographic and social consequences led to such development of the region, in which depopulation has not stopped since 1992. There are identified the features of the current migration situation in Saratov oblast. The circle of close migration partners of the region and changes in its migration ties over 50 years is revealed. The character of the exchange of population with other regions of Russia is examined. The main factors of the negative demographic situation in the region are considered. The primary factor is the low level of socio-economic development, wages and incomes of the population. As a consequence, together with high proportion of the urban population and poor ecology this results in a low birth rate and a higher mortality rate than the national average. The latter factor is associated not only with the more "old" (than in the Russian Federation as a whole) age and sex structure of the population of the region. The unfavorable socio-economic situation in the region also generates an increased mortality rate for separate classes and causes of death. Indirectly, this is evidenced by a significantly higher (than in the Russian Federation as a whole) mortality of the population of Saratov oblast from diseases of the digestive system and from alcohol poisoning. In addition, the outflow of young people to economically more developed regions of the country and the decline in fertility leads to a decrease in the proportion of women in the most active childbearing age, which causes an even greater decline in the birth rate. And decrease in the share of young people as a whole leads to an increase in the pension burden on the able-bodied population and to a further decrease in the incomes of the entire population of the region. A general conclusion is made that it is necessary to more actively and effectively pursue a policy of equalizing the socio-economic and demographic development of the regions of Russia. It is necessary to create zones of advanced development not only in the Far East or in the Arctic. It is necessary to develop the economy and the social sphere in all underdeveloped regions of Russia at a faster pace.
The role of geographical factor in the formation and development of human potential
Authors: Ryumina Elena
Published: December 2021

This article summarizes the results of the study on development and analysis of the typology of Russian regions according to criteria for the quality of human potential. Prior to this, ten clusters of this typology were studied separately, exceptions from the typical entry into clusters with neighboring regions were considered. Although among the qualitative characteristics of human potential there was not a single one, reflecting the territorial location of the regions, but in the typology they were distributed precisely on the basis of geography. Unobserved factors, whose effects on human potential are mediated by study-driven indicators, played a crucial role in clustering regions. Such a result naturally brought us to the works of L.N. Gumilev, which were studied in terms of the role played by geography of territories, landscapes and climate in the formation of human potential. In many ways, geographical conditions also determine the nature of economic activities, which form the abilities and skills of the population that characterize human potential. It was concluded that the typology of regions obtained on the characteristics of human potential corresponds to the composition of federal districts, with the exception of four small clusters, three of which — with a pronounced raw material specialization and one — with the financial advantages of two capital cities. Accordingly, this implies the expediency of using the administrations of federal districts to solve the problem of improving the quality of human potential. The protracted process of giving administrative status to federal districts can be completed by setting them the important social task of developing and implementing a strategy for improving the qualitative characteristic of population.

The purpose of the study is to identify trends in the economic behavior of the population in the field of consumer, saving, investment, and credit activity. The analysis of human economic actions only for solving scientific problems is divided into the listed types, but in practice, an individual makes a particular decision (chooses a certain strategy) under the impact of simultaneously influencing groups of factors that depend on gender and age, place and living conditions, social affiliation-income group, level of education, psychological and value attitudes, level of development of the financial infrastructure in a certain territory, stage of economic development of a country and / or region. And now another significant factor has been added — the coronavirus pandemic and its consequences. The article presents the results of the first stage of the interdisciplinary research project "Socio-psychological factors of economic behavior of the population: risks and opportunities (cross-country comparisons)" carried out by the authors. On the basis of the data obtained with the help of the sociological tools developed by the authors, the types of economic behavior are investigated in terms of four psychosocial aspects closely related to the features of mentality: trust, risk, stress, responsibility. An interdisciplinary approach to the study of the motives and strategies of economic behavior provides identification of the most realistic picture of all current risks and opportunities for population in the financial and consumer services market. At the second stage, the data obtained by the authors from the results of the survey of the Russian population, will be compared on the basis of a comparative analysis with the outcomes of the forthcoming surveys of respondents from Poland, Belarus, Lithuania and Slovakia.

Published: December 2021

The purpose of this work is analysis of the social support coverage in Russia during the coronavirus epidemic. The paper also analyzes the impact of the pandemic on the financial situation of families. The work focused on families with children as the poorest category of the Russian population with a lot of social exclusions. The study was based on the data from population survey conducted at the top of the epidemic by the Yuri Levada Analytical Center (LEVADA-CENTER). During the period of isolation caused by the coronavirus epidemic, population significantly suffered from lack of work and reduction of earnings. Families with children lost the possibility to leave children in kindergartens and schools that had a negative effect on the welfare of the population: 35% families reported worsening of the financial situation of their families over the past year. At the same time, more than 40% of the families received social support compensating the negative effect of the coronavirus epidemic. Social support was primarily provided to families with children — there were twice as many recipients of benefits among them then among the entire population. The paper also analyzes the opinion of the population about what measures of the social support they consider the most important and what types of assistance their families need. According to the survey data, the greatest need of the population is for financial support (almost 37% of families). At the same time, the majority of the respondents believe that it is the duty of the state to provide all children with normal living standards. The analysis has shown the importance of the social support of the population and the necessity of raising its efficiency in the difficult period of the coronavirus epidemic.
Remote employment in the corona-crisis period: the extent of spread and effectiveness of introduction
Authors: Loginov Dmitry , Lopatina Marina
Published: December 2021

Basing on the materials of the representative surveys held by RANEPA in 2020 and 2021, it has been shown how wide-spread and effective is the distance form of employment in Russia. Before the epidemiological crisis distance employment was characteristic of a very limited segment of the labor market and was mostly concentrated in groups of relatively high-income employees in the sphere of services and informational technologies. Along with actualization of the coronavirus threat and activation of the measures taken to prevent its spread, the labor market underwent significant changes in 2020, and more than 20% of the employed were forced to switch to distance employment. The transition to distance employment turned out to be very traumatic in terms of work efficiency and psychological comfort. The developed typology shows that positive perception is likely only for 16% of respondents and more than a half are found in the zone of negative integral assessment. Representatives of the youngest cohorts and metropolis dwellers showed the highest level of adaptivity: they expressed the highest positive assessments of the shift to the remote format. The spread of remote employment enhanced the use of informational technologies, particularly, the means of distance visual interaction for solving working tasks. On the whole, such a mass switch to remote employment has turned out to be effective as a temporary measure that will allow smoothing out the negative outcomes of the pandemic. It may be assumed that in the medium term there will be optimization of management efforts when introducing remote work of some employees, and segmental development of mixed employment forms based on the effective balance of employees' and employers' interests.
