On Urban Planning and Socio-economic Development of Cities in Russia
Authors: Mutalipov Rakhmon Bagdadovich
Published: January 2023

The article analyzes some features of urban planning and socio-economic development in Russia, in connection with which problems are identified that require legislative resolution. Exploring the issues of urban planning and socio-economic development, the author used analysis and synthesis, formal legal, logical methods. In the analysis of legislation and its emerging practice, the dialectical method was applied. It was revealed that the change in the functional zones of urban lands can often be carried out unreasonably, which leads to challenging these changes in court. At the same time, the consequences of such contestation by the legislator are not directly indicated, which leads to legal uncertainty regarding the possible use of the land plot. It is proposed to legislate as the consequences of declaring disputed changes invalid by the court: restoration of the former functional zone, bringing the territorial zone in line with the functional one by introducing changes to the land use and development rules by city authorities. Based on the results of a study of the practice of socio-economic development of cities, it was established that master plans and concepts are being developed in cities, the adoption of which is not provided for by the legislation on urban planning and strategic planning. According to the author, it is necessary to amend the Federal Law "On Strategic Planning in the Russian Federation" and supplement the list of strategic planning documents of the municipality with master plans and the concept of the city's development, which will correspond to the established practice. It is expected that the proposed ideas will improve the efficiency of urban space management, attract private investment in the formation of a comfortable urban environment.
Marxism-Leninism and Christianity: the Successes of the Communist Government in Russia
Authors: Barinov Nikolai Nikolaevich
Published: January 2023

This article analyzes the successes of the Communist Party's power in Russia and the methods of achieving them from the point of view of Orthodox Christianity. The relevance of the research is due to the fact that this topic is directly related to the structure of society, and there are (often acute) discussions on this issue. In this paper, a historical and theological analysis of the topic under study is carried out on the basis of a critical study of the works of V. Lenin, his closest associates, historical and theological works and historical documents on the issue under study. In this article, an attempt is made to present a systematic analysis of the subject under study, an appeal is made to opponents. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that many documents are analyzed for the first time in connection with the topic under study. Also, in more detail and systematically, in relation to the available works, the analysis of this subject is carried out. The aim of the work is a critical study of historical documents, as well as historical and philosophical works on the issue under study. The article concludes that the methods of achieving the successes of the Bolsheviks in Russia are incompatible with Christianity. In addition, atheistic construction is like the construction of the Tower of Babel, stopped by God, i.e. from the point of view of Orthodoxy, the successes of Bolshevism cannot be called successes, and millions of souls forcibly torn away from God as a result of the planting of atheism repeatedly crossed off all the achievements of the USSR.
Geshe Tupten Pelsang and his Contribution to Proving the Authenticity of Lamrim Je Tsongkhapa
Authors: Loshchenkov Aleksei Vyacheslavovich
Published: January 2023

The article is devoted to the Tibetan-language work of the modern Tibetan master Geshe Tupten Pelsang "Compilation of Sutras for the synthesis of the path to Enlightenment with reference to the topics set forth in the Great Lamrim" (lam rim chen mo'i sa bcad kyi zur rgyan mdo btus lam sgrig). It is established that this is the first Roman (extra-sectarian) Lamrim based solely on excerpts from the Word of the Buddha (Kangyur) and does not use a set of Buddhist shastras ‒ Tengyur. There are various texts that bring together the instructions transmitted by Shakyamuni Buddha. It is determined that in this case such kind of genre as anthology (btus-pa) is considered. It is a thematic selection and bringing in a certain order of quotations of the Word of the Buddha, but at the same time expresses a certain opinion and creativity of the author himself. At the same time, it was revealed that the work is based on a structural presentation of the stages of the path to enlightenment according to the "Big Lamrim" of Je Tsongkhapa. It is determined that the author does not derive the justification of the correctness of the provisions of the lamrim (step-by-step path) from logical argumentation, but conducts it by fully quoting a canon that is appropriate in the meaning of a part of the text. The source editions for citation are the Kangyur editions of Nartang (snar-thang) and Derge (sde-dge).
George Uglow Pope as the Pandit, the Philosopher, and the Missionary
Authors: Vecherina Olga
Published: January 2023

The article deals with the biography and scientific achievements of one of the founders of Tamil studies, G.U. Pope. His many years of selfless activity in the field of Indian education, the creation of basic textbooks and anthologies of the literary Tamil, which generations of schoolchildren and students studied, and translation of the main texts of ancient and medieval Tamil literature, have earned well-deserved honor and respect from the Tamils, for whom he is a national hero. His identification and study of the main ideas of Śaiva Siddhānta based on the biography and poems of the Tamil poet Māṇikkavācakar using Tiruvaruṭpayaṉ and Civappirakācam by Umāpati Civācāriyar (which he introduced into academic discourse) have largely retained their scientific significance and today. For the first time in Russian Tamil studies, Pope is shown as the first person to realize the philosophy of Tamil Śaiva Siddhānta value for understanding South Indian Śaivism. The article discusses in detail Pope's analysis and formulae of the main provisions and key ideas of Śaiva Siddhānta based on the comparative method, which allowed him to involve previously unexplored treatises of Umāpati Civācāriyar, and sacred writings of Hinduism, in comparison with the Christian religion, including the Gnostics and the Apocrypha. In conclusion, the author characterizes Pope's main scientific achievements, which influenced not only the development of academic Tamil studies, but also the national consciousness of the Tamils, their awareness of their unique identity, value and originality of own culture.
The History of Study of Aristotle's Ethics at the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Authors: Platonov Roman Sergeevich
Published: January 2023

The article is devoted to the 100th anniversary of the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IPhRAS), held in 2021. The purpose of the article is to give an overview of IPhRAS's contribution to the study of Aristotle's ethics within the framework of domestic Aristotelian studies, to note the main works of IPhRAS employees in this field. The material of the article is aimed not only at summing up the results to a significant date, but can be used as an auxiliary reference point in the domestic research literature by all those interested in the ethics of Aristotle. The article examines the articles and monographs of IPhRAS employees, makes brief descriptions of the most significant ideas expressed in them, analyzes the general process of development of Aristotle's ethics research in IPhRAS. The result of the conducted research is the identification of two directions in the study of Aristotle's ethics by IPhRAS employees – philosophical-theoretical and historical-philosophical. Within the framework of the first direction, two types are also distinguished: those aimed at the theoretical reconstruction of Aristotle's teaching on morality itself and those that turn to Aristotle's works in search of modern significant concepts. The second direction is represented by translation work, structural and comparative analysis of Aristotle's texts in order to reproduce them as accurately as possible and clarify individual concepts and statements. The main conclusion of the study is the statement that IPhRAS has not yet developed a holistic school in the approach to the study of Aristotle's ethics, and also that the two discovered areas of research are being implemented separately from each other. However, in both directions, researchers proceed largely from the analysis of the philosophical language of the Stagirite, which makes not only historical and philosophical works significant for philosophical and theoretical ones, but also vice versa. Also, despite a relatively short history, the study of Aristotle's ethics at IPhRAS has a systematic nature, all generations of employees are involved in it, which promises its further successful development.
Spiritual Horizons of the "Thaw": on the Question of New Poetry in the "Female" Vocal Cycle in Russian Music of the 1960s and 1970s
Authors: Shkirtil' Lyudmila Vyacheslavovna
Published: January 2023

The article is devoted to the new poetry that entered the Russian musical culture with the Khrushchev "thaw". A special perspective of the study is the "female" chamber vocal cycle of the 1960s and 1970s. The wave of interest of Russian composers in chamber and vocal music that arose during this period is associated with a hitherto unprecedented wealth of poetic themes and images, the emergence of modern literature. Spiritual horizons expanded rapidly, original texts entailed fresh genre and technological solutions. The new poetic "information", as well as scientific information, liberated the creative forces of musicians, demanded a new language, style, form. Poetry turned out to be one of the most important incentives for the renewal of compositional concepts. The main conclusion of the study is the idea that the development of vocal music, the figurative and thematic expansion of "female" chamber vocal cycles is primarily associated with the modern poetic tradition, with the expansion of the spiritual horizons of Soviet cultural life in the second half of the last century. Russian chamber and vocal music is being studied for the first time in such a perspective and this direction must be recognized as fruitful, more fully revealing the most important vectors of the development of the musical and poetic tradition. It is quite obvious that the modern literary preferences of composers became the basis for a radical renewal of the chamber-vocal genre in the 1960s and 1970s.

Published: January 2023

Application of the network multimedia extension topology algorithm in wisdom sharing of the English teachers' scientific research platform is studied in the paper. In order to correctly read the original data of the STL model, better use the OpenGL technology to display the three-dimensional graphics, and realize its operation, we must understand its structure on the basis of fully understanding the STL file. This optimization also serve as the basis of the platform design. Specifically, the implementation process of the algorithm itself cannot increase the network traffic too much, and at the same time, it should also try to minimize the time required for discovery, otherwise it will then affect the performance and efficiency of the network as a whole. Then, we use the network multimedia extension topology algorithm to handle this challenge. Furthermore, the English teachers' scientific research platform is designed and tested based on this model.

Authors: Tabassum Fatmah , Devi Nirupama , Panda Sucheta , Padhy Rasmita Kumari , Dey Paramita , Behera Lipika
Published: January 2023

Introduction: Obesity, emerging as a worldwide health burden having potential risk for development of atherosclerosis, diabetes, coagulopathy, arthritis and metabolic syndrome. Obesity is classified in terms of various anthropometric modalities like Body Mass Index (BMI), Waist Circumference (WC) and Waist Hip Ratio (WHR) etc. Adipocyte secretes adiponectin that has an important role in energy homeostasis and lipid metabolism. Adiponectin level reduces in obesity and its deficiency results in higher incidence of insulin resistance. Adiponectin has insulin sensitising, antiatherogenic and anti inflammatory properties. Aim: To compare the level of serum adiponectin, fasting plasma insulin and Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) in healthy obese individuals with healthy non obese controls and also to find out the correlation of serum adiponectin with fasting plasma insulin level and HOMA-IR in healthy obese cases. Materials and Methods: This case-control study was conducted in Department of Biochemistry, MKCG MCH, Berhampur, Odisha, India, during the period of October 2019 to October 2020 which included 86 subjects. Of which 43 were healthy obese individuals and 43 were age and sex matched healthy non obese volunteers, in the age group of 20-45 years were taken as controls. About 4 mL of whole blood was collected to measure fasting plasma glucose, fasting plasma insulin and serum adiponectin. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 16.0 was used to do the statistical analysis and for correlation Pearson correlation test was done. Results: In present study, maximum cases and controls were within the range of 20-35 years. Out of 43 cases, 25 were males and 18 were females and out of 43 controls, 27 were males and 16 were females. Insulin resistance and Fasting Plasma Glucose were significantly higher in healthy obese cases as compared to controls. Serum adiponectin in cases (2.35±0.77) was found to be significantly lower than controls (8.10±2.98). Present study found statistically significant negative correlation of serum adiponectin with fasting plasma insulin (r=-0.918, p<0.001) and HOMA-IR (r=-0.934, p<0.001). Conclusion: Negative correlation of adiponectin and positive correlation of insulin resistance in obesity suggest inflammation which may lead to development of metabolic syndrome. So adiponectin is a target for future research to reduce morbidity and mortality in relation to obesity.

Authors: Singh Neelima , Prasad Nidhi , Prakash Vidyut , Prasad Dipali , Kumar Ravikant
Published: January 2023

Introduction: Enterically transmitted Hepatitis A Virus (HAV) and Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) are the most common cause of Acute Viral Hepatitis (AVH) and a major health concern in developing nations like India. Both viruses cause AVH and are spread predominantly through the faecal-oral pathway, most commonly through contaminated water. Aim: To estimate the prevalence of HAV and HEV infection in patients presenting with AVH. Materials and Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was undertaken in Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, Bihar. The study was conducted over a period of 24 months from November 2019 to October 2021. All patients presenting with AVH were included as study participants. The blood samples were subjected to test anti-HAV and anti-HEV positivity. Prevalence of HAV and HEV was calculated taking total cases of AVH as denominator. Patients with confirmed infection with HCV, HBV and any other cause of hepatitis were excluded from the study. Templates were generated in an Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and analysis of data was done using Statistical Package of the Social Sciences software (SPSS) version 20.0. Quantitative data were presented as frequency and percentages. Results: A total of 682 patients presented with acute hepatitis. The AVH patients comprised 467 males (68.5%) and 215 (31.5%) females with the mean age 39.6±18.87 years. The current study reports the seroprevalence of 9.18% HAV and 8.35% of HEV. A total of 4 patients tested positive for coinfection with HAV and HEV. Most of the HAV patients belonged to an age group less than or equal to 12 years (25,58.1%) and none were more than 60 years. However, none of the HEV patients were children and most of them were aged between 13 to 60 years (46,92%). A male preponderance among HAV (28,65.1%), and HEV (38,76%) was noted. Conclusion: Low seroprevalence was noted, with infection more common in younger age group and male patients. Further studies and vaccination along with surveillance system strengthening are warranted.

The Best Time to Dental Implant Placement in Patients with Head and Neck Cancers: An Ever-going Debate
Authors: Somay Efsun , Yilmaz Busra , Topkan Erkan
Published: January 2023

With 500,000 new cases diagnosed each year, head and neck cancers (HNC) are among the most prevalent cancers in the world. The most effective organ-sparing therapy for patients with locally advanced HNC is concurrent chemoradiotherapy (C-CRT). Many HNC patients lose multiple teeth and develop soft and hard tissue defects over the course of the disease and treatment, leading to functional limitations and cosmetic deformity. Such devastating effects harm the patient's ability to eat, chew, and swallow as well as their psychological, financial, and social well-being. Additionally, multiple tooth losses and subpar oral rehabilitation services can cause cachexia, rapid weight loss, and weakened immunity. The use of conventional prostheses to address tooth losses may not be permitted due to detrimental changes in the structure of the oral cavity. Conventional prostheses may aggravate the harmful side effects of radiotherapy, including xerostomia, mucositis, and a deterioration of bone healing processes. Dental implants may be a better choice for oral rehabilitation. However, because the area of bone involved in implant placement is frequently within the irradiation zone, dental implant planning and timing in HNC patients can be extremely difficult. Additionally, the placement of dental implants may precipitate some specific side effects of cancer treatments, such as osteoradionecrosis. Because the best time to use dental implants is one of the essential components of successful dental rehabilitation for HNC survivors and has not yet been clarified in the literature, this review article aims to gather and provide information in the head and neck region by reviewing the available literature.

Published: January 2023

Context: There are many medicinal plants that are utilized in traditional remedies to treat diabetes because diabetes mellitus (DM) is a significant metabolic condition. One of these is the pharmacological herb Catharanthus roseus. In the herbal medicine system, the plant has been used to treat diabetes mellitus since ancient times.

Objective: In order to employ the plant material to treat diabetes, the current study set out to investigate the therapeutic effect of leaf extract from Catharanthus roseus as well as its safety profile.

Materials and Methods: The Catharanthus roseus extract was steeped in ethanol. Diabetes-induced rats with alloxan monohydrate were each given an ethanol extract of C. rosea. In pilot research, metformin plant extract was used in place of the widely prescribed anti-diabetic medication metformin, and it was found to be effective at lowering blood sugar levels while not causing hypoglycemia.

Results: Alloxan monohydrate was injected intraperitoneally into rats to cause diabetes at a dose of 150 mg/kg body weight, and the animals were also given ethanolic extracts of Catharanthus roseus leaves at doses of 500, 750, and 1100 mg/kg. Throughout the course of the trial, we checked the blood glucose levels of diabetic and control rats. After testing blood glucose levels, it was shown that all doses of Catharanthus roseus reduced the rats' unusually increased blood glucose levels. However, even 750 mg/kg significantly lowers blood sugar levels (p< 0.05). In our investigation, group 5 (alloxan + CR. Low Land) outperformed the other extract-treated groups. This shows that variations in geographic location may have an impact on plant ingredients and their bioactivity.

Conclusion: According to the study's findings, metformin and a leaf extract of Catharanthus roseus both relieved the pathological condition brought on by diabetes. It clearly shows that the Catharanthus roseus leaf extract has significant therapeutic potential for the treatment of diabetes.

Sentidos y acciones en torno a las muertes familiares en La Causa por los “crímenes del franquismo” a partir del trabajo etnográfico
Authors: Zeitlin María Agustina , Puga Laura
Published: January 2023

Este trabajo presenta una síntesis de la labor etnográfica realizada por las autoras en Buenos Aires y Tenerife en torno a La Causa contra la impunidad de los crímenes del franquismo. Los casos presentados reflejan ciertos acontecimientos ocurridos a lo largo de los casi ochenta años desde los sucesos de muerte. El objetivo es exponer a través de tres distintos ejes, desde perspectivas y trayectorias distintas, la forma en la que los muertos del franquismo aparecen significados por parte de sus familiares. Autores principalmente especializados en familiares, cuerpo, exhumaciones y rituales funerarios han servido de cara al análisis de las experiencias de campo, buscando hacer dialogar los datos empíricos con la teoría. A lo largo de este trabajo, las interpretaciones en torno a la categoría sobre la muerte dialogan constituyendo narrativas de memoria que impactan fuertemente en las identidades de quienes manifiestan asumir un rol de responsabilidad frente a quien muere.

Published: January 2023

Com o objetivo de utilizar a arte para promover reflexões sobre as implicações do trabalho com a morte, este estudo teórico reflexivo de natureza qualitativa apoiou-se na tecnologia educativa para uma mostra cultural, para a produção dos dados para análise, pautando-se no referencial de Paulo Freire. O corpus de análise foi constituído por imagens paradas e em movimento, selecionadas intencionalmente, utilizando recursos de busca do Google. A análise crítica dos autores, sustentada nas produções científicas utilizadas, possibilitou uma formulação discursiva sobre as implicações do trabalho com a morte, evidenciando tabus, estigmas, desvalorização social e não reconhecimento, associados ao manuseio do cadáver. A mostra cultural temática é uma tecnologia educacional que promove uma reflexão sobre fenômenos da vida e potencializa uma compreensão crítica sobre os sentidos do trabalho de profissionais que lidam com a morte.
Apresentação do Dossiê nº 14: Iconografia e cultura material da morte no Mundo Antigo
Authors: Cerqueira Fábio , Souza Camila Diogo de
Published: January 2023

O dossiê Iconografia e cultura material da morte no Mundo Antigo é composto por doze artigos que versam sobre diferentes abordagens teórico-metodológicas das culturas visual e material da morte nos mundos egípcio, persa, grego, romano, céltico e viking. Trata-se de um dossiê multilíngue, com contribuições em inglês e francês, além do idioma nacional, para o qual contribuem quatorze autores, entre os quais, somando-se aos pesquisadores brasileiros, aqueles ligados nomeadamente a instituições britânicas, gregas e francesas. O leitor perceberá como os estudos sobre a morte e os mortos na Antiguidade é beneficiado a partir de um tratamento multi e interdisciplinar, em que avançamos sobre a compreensão do morrer entre as diferentes culturas do Mundo antigo. O estudo das evidências materiais e visuais ocupa lugar de destaque neste cenário de investigação. Ao mesmo tempo, as análises aqui desenvolvidas revelam como os monumentos funerários são fonte indispensável para o aprofundamento de conhecimentos e desenvolvimento de reflexões sobre temas os mais variados, para além dos estudos mortuários, como música e gênero, política e memória, identidade cultural e relação com o mundo animal, entre outros, por vezes tornando-se fonte exclusiva para tirar do anonimato as trajetórias representativas da diversidade do viver na Antiguidade.
Caminhando com Amenemhet em seu funeral: afetando e sendo afetado na Tumba Tebana 123
Authors: Pellini Jose Roberto
Published: January 2023

Neste artigo parto da ideia de que as imagens nas paredes das tumbas faraônicas não deveriam ser pensadas como representações, mas como estratégias material-discursivas criadas pelo morto conscientemente, para afetar o público com acesso à capela da tumba. Seu objetivo era fazer com que os visitantes lessem as fórmulas de oferenda e declamassem seu nome em voz alta, para ativar a magia do lugar e tornar as oferendas reais, possibilitando assim sua volta ao mundo dos vivos. As cenas, pensadas não como representações, mas como estratégias material-discursivas, enquanto corpos, colocam em movimento fluxos afetivos que podem aumentar ou diminuir a capacidade de ação das pessoas. Desta maneira, entender o que as cenas significam depende do entendimento do que elas podem fazer, enquanto corpos afetivos.
Cosmos de imagens: um vislumbre sobre a iconografia das urnas funerárias da 21ª dinastia
Authors: De Araújo Duarte Cássio
Published: January 2023

Icônicas peças do mobiliário funerário egípcio, os ataúdes passaram no transcorrer da história por profundas mudanças em suas formas, arranjos e decoração, tanto no âmbito real quanto privado. Durante a 21ª dinastia e início da 22ª observa-se simultaneamente a continuidade da estética Raméssida, ao mesmo tempo em que uma ampla gama de temas iconográficos e vinhetas passaram a cobrir quase que a totalidade das superfícies das urnas privadas. Cenas inéditas foram integradas em paralelo àquelas derivadas de fontes religiosas diversas, e estas foram entrelaçadas, por meio de sofisticados recursos de intericonicidade, de forma a garantir a proteção e regeneração do morto e integrá-lo à dinâmica dos fenômenos cósmicos. Propomos aqui lançar um olhar sobre um número desses temas, apresentando alguns dos empréstimos e reinterpretações de composições da realeza e os intrincados cruzamentos simbólicos estabelecidos entre as cenas.

Citharodie et rhapsodie sur un pilier funéraire de Chios (IIIe siècle av. J.-C.) : de l’image au contexte culturel
Authors: PERROT Sylvain
Published: January 2023

L’objectif de cet article est de reconsidérer en détail l’iconographie d’un pilier funéraire trouvé à Chios et daté de la première moitié du iiie siècle avant Jésus-Christ. D’un style typique de Chios, incisé et non sculpté, le décor principal montre une citharode, tandis que sur chacune des deux faces latérales est figurée une Sirène jouant d’un instrument, aulos à gauche et cithare à droite. Ces images, dont la symbolique funéraire est assurée par l’usage de ces piliers comme marqueurs de tombe, peuvent être mieux comprises à l’aune de l’histoire culturelle de Chios, et plus particulièrement celle de ses représentations musicales, dans la mesure où ce pilier a été produit au moment où la cité pouvait se targuer d’avoir donné naissance à une vedette de la scène, la citharode Glaukē. Il convient donc d’évaluer la place que la citharodie occupait dans la cité de Chios afin de mieux cerner le contexte de cette représentation. La présence de sirènes sur les côtés du pilier engage aussi à considérer le cas de la rhapsodie, a fortiori dans une île qui se prétendait lieu de naissance d’Homère. Ces éléments posés, on pourra réévaluer la place du « pilier à la citharode » dans la vie culturelle de Chios au début de l’époque hellénistique.
Os meandros dos espaços de recordação no monumento funerário de Otávio Augusto (séc. I a.C – I d.C.)
Authors: Omena Luciane Munhoz de , Arima Paulo Yoke Oliveira
Published: January 2023

Este artigo tem como objetivo compreender os espaços da morte e suas relações com a produção social de memória por intermédio do Mausoléu de Otávio Augusto, em diálogo com as narrativas textuais, investigando, com isso, o impacto da morte na corte romana. Para tanto, traçaremos reflexões acerca do conceito de memória e suas conexões aos monumentos mortuários de Roma, já que produziam, segundo se propõe, experiências sociais de recordação e rememoração de grupos ligados à domus de Otávio Augusto. Torna-se, então, relevante explorar o mausoléu augustiano, pois, juntamente com seus integrantes das gentes Iulia e Claudia, os símbolos e as insígnias incorporavam um cerimonial teatralizado, que coloca em cena o morto na estrutura de poder e sua posição nas gerações da família.
