ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ВЕРБАЛІЗАЦІЇ КОНЦЕПТУ SUPÉRIORITÉ SUR LES AUTRES У РОМАНІ МЮРІЕЛЬ БАРБЕРІ «LA GOURMANDISE»
Authors: ПАВЛЮК Олена
Published: February 2023

Анотація. Стаття присвячена засобам вербалізації художнього концепту supériorité sur les autres ‘вищість над іншими’ в романі М. Барбері «La gourmandise». Відчуття та підкреслення своєї винятковості, вищості над іншими є основними рисами характеру головного персонажа роману М. Барбері «La gourmandise», у якому запрезентовано спогади видатного кулінарного критика, котрий усвідомлює свої особливість і велич та всіляко їх підкреслює. Його спогади пов’язані з пошуком забутого смаку, упродовж якого він згадує своїх рідних та близьких, розповідає про свою блискавичну й блискучу кар’єру. Мета роботи полягає в аналізі й описі особливостей втілення художнього концепту supériorité sur les autres у тексті роману М. Барбері «La gourmandise». Завданнями роботи є визначити зміст концепту supériorité sur les autres, проаналізувати специфіку його семантичного наповнення; розкрити внутрішню діалектичну суперечливість функціонування цього концепту в зазначеному художньому творі. У творі цей концепт розкрито через образ головного персонажа – відомого кулінарного критика. Його спогади чергуються зі спогадами членів його родини та більш далекого оточення. Концепт supériorité sur les autres у романі М. Барбері «La gourmandise» реалізовано через засоби втілення надвисокої самооцінки головного персонажа роману, оцінки його професійних досягнень і моральних якостей, сприйняття особистості кулінарного критика його оточенням і взаємин головного персонажа з рідними, колегами, знайомими тощо. Професійні здобутки розвинули в кулінарного критика самозакоханість, честолюбство, самовпевненість, самолюбування, егоцентризм. В особистому житті головний герой не вміє зробити щасливими ані своїх батьків, ані дітей, які почуваються самотніми й нещасними. Отже, професійні досягнення головного персонажа контрастують з його неповноцінністю в приватному житті. Вищість Метра над іншими проявляється у його зовнішності, поведінці, у ставленні до інших, у схилянні перед ним, у возвеличенні його колегами, у визнанні його кулінарним Наставником і Вчителем. У тексті твору аналізований концепт supériorité sur les autres тісно взаємодіє, перетинається з концептами amour de soi-(même), indifférence aux autres, égoïsme, égocentrisme, non-amour, pouvoir.
СКЛАДЕНІ ОЙКОНІМИ УКРАЇНИ НА ‑ІВК‑А ХІХ–ХХІ СТОЛІТЬ
Authors: ВИСОЦЬКА Марія
Published: February 2023

Анотація. Стаття присвячена аналізу складених ойконімів України з формантом ‑івк‑а XIX–XXI століть. У статті проаналізовано проблему розрізнення складних та складених назв. Мета нашого дослідження – зафіксувати та проаналізувати складені назви поселень на ‑івк‑а. За основу поділу взято структурний критерій. Засвідчено 1546 складених назв. Усі оніми поділено на дві групи: 1. Ойконіми, атрибути яких характеризують назви населених пунктів за різноманітними ознаками (1298 назв); 2. Ойконіми-прикладки (191 назва). Атрибути в складених ойконімах вказують на різні ознаки: час заснування (Нова, Стара: Нова Павлівка, Стара Вижівка), розмір (Мала, Велика: Мала Солтанівка), на місце розташування населеного пункту (Верхня, Середня, Нижня, Західна, Східна: Нижня Жужманівка), на характер місцевості, рослинного світу (Польова, Лісова, Степова тощо: Лісова Лисіївка), колір (Зелена, Червона, Жовта: Зелена Рубанівка) тощо. Засвідчено 153 назви населених пунктів, атрибутами яких є порядкові числівники, зазвичай Перша чи Друга (Білоусівка Перша), зрідка Третя (Голубинівка Третя). Найбільше зафіксовано назв, атрибути яких вказують на час заснування поселення (833 назви), з них 775 містять компонент Нова (Ново-). Означальні компоненти складених ойконімів часто мають протилежне семантичне навантаження, відповідно утворюють повні та неповні опозиційні пари. Зафіксовано також контекстуально опозиційні ойконіми. Атрибутом у складених ойконімах також виступає прикметник з суфіксом ‑ськ, який виражає етнічний аспект чи вказує на відношення до інших топонімів (наприклад, Сапанівська Хотівка). Ойконіми-прикладки зазвичай вказують на засновника поселення або ж на локалізацію населеного пункту (Петро-Михайлівка). Часто такі назви утворені внаслідок об’єднання двох поселень в один (наприклад, Дубівчик-Маслівка). Зафіксовано прикладкові конструкції, утворені поєднанням ойконіма на ‑івк‑а та апелятива, що позначає тип поселення (Хуторо-Миколаївка) або місце виробничої діяльності (Рудня-Гацьківка). Окремо виділено складені ойконіми, утворені за допомогою прийменників (Коло-Михайлівка), а також меморіальні ойконіми (Тарасо-Шевченківка). Найбільше складених ойконімів зафіксовано у ХХ столітті, найменше – у ХІХ. Простежуємо тенденцію до економії мовних форм. Аналізуючи територіальне поширення ойконімів на ‑івк‑а, стверджуємо, що складені назви найбільш характерні для Дніпропетровської, Донецької, Кіровоградської, Одеської, Сумської областей, найменше таких назв засвідчено у західних областях України.
De vueltas al canon ¿Qué deberían enseñar las clases de políticas públicas?
Authors: Valmorisco Pizarro Segundo , Vicente Vicente María José
Published: February 2023

Las asignaturas relacionadas con políticas públicas conforman una parte fundamental en los programas de grado de Ciencias Políticas, aunque no existe un consenso en relación a los contenidos y a la metodología docente. El objetivo de este artículo es doble, por un lado, trata de responder qué debemos enseñar sobre análisis y evaluación de las políticas públicas y por otro, cómo debemos hacerlo. Quienes somos docentes de esta materia, debemos tratar de enfocar nuestra tarea conjugando el aprendizaje teórico-práctico del alumnado, con el potencial beneficio de la investigación para las instituciones en las que realizan sus investigaciones. Después de detectar algunas lagunas en las guías docentes de 18 Universidades Públicas españolas, proponemos un mayor impulso de las competencias transversales a través del uso de fuentes secundarias, técnicas cualitativas y técnicas cuantitativas. Desde este prisma, que supone un intento de definición de un canon o modelo (que debería constituir el núcleo duro del análisis de políticas públicas) se analizan cuatro grandes dimensiones: actores, recursos, procesos y resultados. Las conclusiones, después de casi dos décadas de experiencia docente, nos indican que la transferencia de conocimientos entre el aula y las instituciones, es directamente proporcional al grado de implicación de todos sus agentes.
El «déboulonnage» de las estatuas, continuidad de la lucha anticolonialista martiniqueña
Authors: Salazar Plata Yazmín Luciana
Published: February 2023

A partir del derrumbe y de la intervención de ciertas estatuas representativas de personajes coloniales o abolicionistas en la isla de Martinica, el presente ensayo analiza estos actos políticos en relación al rechazo de la población afrodescendiente al sistema (neo)colonial francés. Se profundiza en las revueltas de los esclavos que aceleraron la declaración de la abolición de la esclavitud en la isla antes de la llegada oficial del decreto oficial desde la capital francesa, lo que permite comprender cómo y para qué la historia colonial francesa ha privilegiado la figura del abolicionista Victor Shoœlcher. Las cronologías propuestas facilitan la lectura de estos eventos además de colaborar a una de las tareas más importantes de los pueblos oprimidos, reconocerse en una lucha histórica nutrida por la memoria colectiva. Se muestran varios ejemplos comparativos que enfatizan cómo el dominio del espacio público es parte del funcionamiento del sistema colonial francés, además se señalan políticas específicas a las cuales los hombres y las mujeres que fueron esclavizados se han enfrentado a lo largo de la historia.

Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds, and prayers and peace be upon the one who was sent as a mercy to the worlds, our master Muhammad, his family and companions, and those who were guided by their guidance until the Day of Judgment and after:

The one who follows the words of the Noble Qur’an will find that he used similar words in terms of pronunciation and pronunciation, but you will find that the same word is used in another place and with another sentence indicating other than the previous meaning, and this acceptance suggests that another is intended to use another, and this is general and known throughout the Qur’an.

Published: February 2023

Preoccupation with legal sciences is one of the best acts of worship with Allah Almighty for those whose intentions are righteous, and the most important of them after the sciences of the Noble Qur’an is caring for the purified Prophet’s Sunnah and its sciences. It is part of the mercy of Allah Almighty for this nation that He sent among them a Messenger who teaches them the matters of their religion, and guides them to everything that will benefit them. And he warns them of everything that harms them, and Allah Almighty has equipped men to preserve the Sunnah of the Prophet who believed what they promised Allah, so they preserved it, and their efforts had an impact that is not hidden until it reached us in its form that was during the era of the Messenger of God (peace be upon him). Peace be upon him).

Authors:   Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Mahidol University, Thailand, Ngamkaiwan Chomkate , Sirivunnabood Punchada ,   Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Mahidol University, Thailand
Published: February 2023

Since PM2.5 pollution is often considered an environmental crime, this study proposes a green criminological framework for PM2.5 pollution prevention in the Bangkok Metropolitan Region based on the problem-solving approach for crime prevention. Three data collection methods were applied in this study: documentary research, in-depth interviews, and focus groups. There were 26 participants in total. Qualitative content analysis was employed to identify the significant patterns embedded in the collected data. According to the research findings, challenges to PM2.5 pollution mitigation were classified into three regulatory voids: political voids, institutional voids, and knowledge voids. Combining the possible solutions to the regulatory voids and suggestions from all three data sources, alternative solutions to the PM2.5 crisis were conceptualized into a green criminological framework for PM2.5 pollution prevention. The solutions are based on environmental crime prevention approaches, including socio-legal, regulatory, and social action strategies. These approaches emphasize the enhancement of environmental laws and law enforcement, investments in public infrastructure, land use planning, application of economic incentives and technological solutions, and public participation in pollution monitoring.

Authors: Titorenko Semen Konstantinovich
Published: February 2023

The author discusses the features of the tax and legal regulation of cryptocurrencies in the Republic of Malta and the Russian Federation. A study of legal regulation and a study of the positions of legal scholars of the Republic of Malta, in terms of regulating the turnover of cryptocurrencies, as well as the experience of legal regulation of the turnover of cryptocurrencies in the Russian Federation. As a result of the study, the author identified a gap in the legal regulation of taxation of cryptocurrencies in the Russian Federation, in comparison with the legal regulation of the Republic of Malta. Public relations arising in connection with the turnover of cryptocurrencies are not fully regulated in any country of the world at the moment, including in terms of taxation of transactions using cryptocurrencies. In this connection, it is necessary to take into account the foreign experience of legal regulation of taxation of cryptocurrency turnover, including the Republic of Malta. The problem lies in the fact that amendments to the Tax Code of the Russian Federation have not been adopted at the moment, which would regulate the taxation of cryptocurrency turnover in the Russian Federation. The goal of the study is to investigate the experience of legal regulation of taxation of cryptocurrencies of the Republic of Malta and to identify aspects that could be applied to form the legal regulation of taxation of turnover of cryptocurrencies in the Russian Federation. Previously, comparative legal research in this area has not been conducted.
Problems in the Relations of the Visegrad Group States with the European Union in 2014-2022.
Authors: Peshkin Vitalii Mikhailovich
Published: February 2023

The subject of the study is the historical conditions in which the disloyal attitude of the Visegrad Group towards the solutions proposed by the EU began to grow during the specified period of time. The analysis of the migration crisis, which has aggravated political, economic, financial, social, and religious problems in the EU countries, is carried out. The EU's efforts to overcome it have become the basis for strengthening the role of right-wing parties in the Quartet. The role of Hungary, which represents itself as a defender of "Europe as a continent for Europeans", which has pursued the most active restrictive migration policy, is considered. The plans of the leadership of Germany and Austria for the management of migration flows, reflecting the ambitions of Berlin and Vienna for the transit and reception of refugees, are presented. The "central" line of Brussels on overcoming the migration crisis is being studied. The tools used by V4 to overcome the migration crisis caused by the vulnerability of the Quartet countries to refugee flows are considered. The article also examines criticism from the "quartet" of the process of overcoming the migration crisis, which saw in the measures proposed by Brussels a threat to the national identity of its small states and a sign of disrespect for the interests of small states in the EU.     In general, the migration crisis has resulted in the strengthening of far-right parties in Hungary and Poland, the radicalization of public opinion, which contradicts the main goals of European integration. Thus, the internal political development in some countries of the "Visegrad Four" has actually become a new noticeable element of confrontation with the European Union. Hungary and Poland reacted extremely painfully to criticism of the EU, appealing for support to partners in the Visegrad Group, to other countries where right-wing and conservative parties are also popular (Italy, Austria). As a counteraction, the EU leadership raised the issue of a threat to EU values in Poland and Hungary and considered the possibility of using a mechanism to influence countries that do not respect the values of the European Union.
Status of Enhancing Learners’ Higher Order Thinking Skills in the Teaching of Reading Skills at Ethiopian Higher Education: Analyzing Reading Exercises and Learners’ Perceptions
Authors: Gergera Sintayehu Gebremariam
Published: February 2023

Abstract In the twenty-first century, the broad availability of information and technological innovation has resulted in a paradigm shift in the goal of education. As a result, in order to produce engaged citizens capable of facing the demands and obstacles of the century, boosting learners' higher cognitive skills has become a priority in modern education. Language teachers' responsibilities in modern language teaching have expanded to include improving students' thinking skills. In line with this idea, this study was aimed at examining the role teaching reading skills at a higher education institution has in enhancing learners’ higher-order thinking skills. In order to achieve the main objective of the study, an analysis was carried out on the levels of thinking that questions in reading exercises aim to elicit from the learners and how the students perceive the reading exercises from the perspective of enhancing higher-order thinking skills. The findings of the study show that the reading exercises are dominated by lower-order questions; there are fewer higher-order questions in the exercises. Thus, the reading exercises are not capable of enhancing learners’ higher-order thinking skills. The students also have the perception that the reading exercises are not meant to develop their higher-order thinking skills. There is no statistically significant difference between male and female participant students among their perceptions identified in the study.

On analogies: A collection of semifaience from Iznik (16th to the first decades of the 17th century) at the Kuskovo Estate Museum and the decor of the Holy Trinity church in Khoroshevo
Authors: Новикова О. Д.
Published: February 2023

Статья посвящена уточнению атрибуции керамического декора Церкви Живоначальной Троицы в Хорошеве (Москва), неоднократно привлекавшего внимание археологов, искусствоведов, историков в XX - начале XXI в. Впервые проведенное сравнение коллекции турецких предметов из собрания «Музея-усадьбы «Кусково», выполненных керамистами Изника и Дамаска в XVI-XVII вв., и двух блюд, сохранившихся из оригинального убора храма, позволяет установить их несомненную идентичность. Декор храма в Хорошеве свидетельствует о влиянии европейской культуры и раскрывает личный вкус заказчика - известного государственного деятеля, шурина царя Федора Иоанновича - Бориса Годунова (1552-1605).

The article aims to provide a more precise attribution for the ceramic decor of the Holy Trinity Church in Khoroshevo (Moscow), which has often been in the focus of many pieces of research by archaeologists, historians and art scholars of the 20th and early 21st century. A comparison of the Turkish items made in Iznik and Damascus in the 17th and 18th century and preserved at the Kuskovo Estate Museum, and the two dishes surviving from the church collection, has proved that they are identical. The tableware at the Khoroshevo church has been influenced by European culture and bears evidence of personal tastes of the man who commissioned them: Boris Godunov (1552-1605), a well-known statesman, brother-in-law of tsar Fyodor Ioannovich, and later himself tsar of Russia.
From N. S. Lyubimova's dissertation “Istra facade ceramics”
Authors: Любимова Н. С.
Published: February 2023

Данной публикацией открывается новый раздел сборника - «Архив архитектурной археологии». В нем предполагается публиковать памятники историографии: забытые или малоизвестные труды, уже оформленные как научные публикации, но по каким-то причинам в свое время не изданные. В первую очередь речь идет о диссертациях советского периода по истории архитектурных памятников, их реставрации, строительной технике и т. п. Для первой публикации выбраны материалы диссертации Н. С. Любимовой «Истринская фасадная керамика XVII века», которую автор защитила в 1950 г. Причина такого выбора заключается в том, что тема истории, изучения, реставрации Ново-Иерусалимского монастыря широко представлена в настоящем выпуске, а материалы Н. С. Любимовой удачно дополняют ее.

This publication introduces a new section of the book, titled “Archive of architectural archaeology”. It will feature forgotten or little-known texts in historiography which had some time ago been prepared for publication but due to a variety of reasons never published. Prime examples are Soviet-time dissertations on the history of monuments of architecture and their restoration, on construction machinery, etc. To inaugurate the section, we have chosen some fragments from N. S. Lyubimova's dissertation “17th century Istra facade ceramics” defended in 1950. This publication is in tune with the topic of history, study and restoraton of the New Jerusalem Monastery, presented in detail in this issue.

Revascularization in Diabetic Foot Ulcer and Outcome
Authors:   Department of Vascular Surgery, National Institute of Cardiovascular Disease Hospital (NICVD), Bangladesh, M Islam
Published: February 2023

Diabetes is a major public health problem regionally and globally. In 2019, the International Diabetes Federation estimated that 465 million (9.3%) people worldwide had diabetes, and by 2045, the number may rise to 700 million (10.9%) [1]. The pooled prevalence of diabetes in the general population of Bangladesh is 7.8% and prevalence of pre-diabetes is 10.1% [2]. Diabetes is a complex disease with many serious potential sequelae, including large vessel arterial disease and microvascular dysfunction. The lifetime risk for foot ulcers in people with diabetes is estimated to be 15% [3]. Development of diabetic foot ulcer is attributed to many interacting factors, the most common ones being peripheral neuropathy and Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) [4]. PAD is an important precipitating factor in the outcome of diabetic foot ulcer [4]. Peripheral arterial disease is a common large vessel complication of diabetes, implicated in the development of tissue loss in up to half of patients with diabetic foot ulceration [5]. Diabetic patients with PAD commonly show involvement of the arteries below the knee, especially at the tibial and peroneal arteries, and involvement of the profunda femoris [6]. Diabetic ulcers always require vascular evaluation, and when ischaemia is suspected the diagnostics should be organized rapidly to ensure revascularisation without delay. Foot ulcer in patients with diabetes is associated with an increased risk of lower limb amputation, and thus the primary aim of treatment for ischemic foot ulcer is limb preservation [4]. Invasive revascularization, including open reconstructive surgery and/or endovascular intervention, is the most effective treatment that may improve peripheral circulation and remedy symptoms [4]. The basic aim of any successful revascularization is to achieve pulsatile flow to the foot. The two methods currently available are peripheral bypass surgery and peripheral angioplasty [7]. Current literature shows that percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is the first choice of procedures in revascularization of the lower limb [7].

Objective: To assess the surgical techniques and ideas in the treatment of the intraoperative retroperitoneal vascular injury. Methods: Between Oct 2017 and Dec 2019, 85 retroperitoneal tumor patients with retroperitoneal vascular injury intraoperatively in Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, the arterial injury occurred in 52 patients, the venous injury occurred in 49 patients, and 16 patients had both arterial and venous injuries. Main disease diagnosis, common types of vascular injury, different management methods, and results of vascular injury were analyzed. Results: The most common type of diagnosis is a retroperitoneal primary malignant tumor, followed by metastatic malignant tumor and retroperitoneal benign tumor. The most frequent injury arteries were the aorta (12 patients) and common iliac artery (12 patients), followed by the external iliac artery (6 patients) and superior mesenteric artery (6 patients). The most frequent injury vein was inferior vena cava (10 patients), followed by internal iliac vein (7 patients), external iliac vein (6 patients), inferior mesenteric vein (6 patients), and common iliac vein (4 patients). A total of 19 patients received artificial vessels replacements, including aortic replacement (4 patients), renal artery replacement (1 patient), superior mesenteric artery (2 patients), common iliac artery (5 patients), external iliac artery (3 patients), inferior vena cava (1 patient), Right renal vein (1 patient), common iliac vein (1 patient) and external iliac vein (1 patient). The remaining patients underwent ligation and sutures to achieve hemostasis. All patients attained hemostasis in the operating room and were admitted to medical wards or the medical ICU. After artificial vessels replacements, one patient died of DIC postoperatively, other patients had an uneventful perioperative course, no anastomotic bleeding was reported. Conclusion: In the management of intraoperative retroperitoneal vascular injury, it is important to assess the extent of injury, select reasonable remediation methods, and adopt artificial vessels replacements when necessary.

Panlongqi Tablet (PLQT), a traditional Chinese formula, is effective in the clinical treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) in China for several decades. However, the underlying mechanism of PLQT’s therapeutic effect remains unclear. The main chemical constituents of PLQT were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The human fibroblast-like synovial cells in rheumatoid arthritis (RA-HFLS) were stimulated with LPS (10 μg/mL) to establish a inflammatory model in vitro. The cells were then treated with PLQT-medicated serum to verify the protective effect of the herbal compound. MTT assay was used to detect the viability of RAHFLS and abnormal cell proliferation. The inflammatory factors levels including interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-17 (IL-17) in RAHFLS were measured by ELISA. In addition, the cell cycle progression was analyzed by flow cytometry and protein expression of Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) was detected using immunohistochemistry and western blot. The protein expression levels associated with PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling pathways in RA-HFLS were detected by western blot analyses. Our results revealed that PLQT treatment effectively inhibited the abnormal proliferation of RA-HFLS and decreased the inflammatory factors levels. The proportion of cells in S phase was significantly increased with the treatment of PLQT. Meanwhile, the expression levels of PCNA, p-PI3K, p-AKT, p-mTOR, p-JNK/JNK, p-ERK/ ERK, and p-P38/P38 proteins from RA-HFLS were dramatically inhibited by PLQT treatment. PLQT inhibits LPS-induced abnormal proliferation of RAHFLS, which may be related to the down regulation of PCNA, and the inhibition of abnormally activated PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling pathways.

Retroperitoneal panniculitis is a rare, benign and nonspecific inflammatory disease that affects the retroperitoneal adipose tissue. The specific cause of the disease is unknown. The diagnosis is evoked by computed tomography and is rarely confirmed by biopsies. Treatment is based on a few selected immunosuppressive drugs. Surgical resection is sometimes attempted for complicated forms, although the surgical approach is often limited. We report a case of a 22-year-old man diagnosed with retroperitoneal panniculitis complicated by a paralytic ileus and mimicking an acute abdomen. A self-limiting course of disease was obtained by adopting a conservative approach.

Introduction: SFT is an uncommon tumor representing 3, 7% of all soft tissue sarcomas and mesenchymal tumor. The most common location is pleura followed by the abdomen. Case Report: A 68 years old male patient was admitted to our department with abdominal pain and a mobile masse in his abdominal hypogastric area. CT-scan showed a well-defined mass with vividly homogenous enhancing features in both the arterial and venous phases. A complete resection of the tumor was performed thought a median sub-ombilical laparotomy. The histological examination showed a fibroblastic mesenchymal tumor with expression of CD34, CD99 and Bcl2 in the immunohistochemical study that is specific of the solitary fibrous tumor. Discussion: SFT are anatomically ubiquitous mesenchymal tumors developed from fibroblasts. It is an uncommon tumor represents 3, 7% of all soft tissue sarcomas and mesenchymal tumors. The most common location is the pleura followed by the abdomen. Clinically, abdominal SFT is usually manifest as abdominal fullness, gastrointestinal obstruction, weight loss, jaundice, fever, or hypoglycemia. Immunohistochemistry, the cell of the SFT typically express the following markers: CD34, CD99 and Bcl2. Complete surgical removal of the tumor is the gold standard treatment which can be completed by adjuvant radiotherapy. Conclusion: Primary SFTs in the peritoneum are extremely uncommon. Clinical symptoms and imaging manifestations are nonspecific whish make the diagnosis difficult. Treatment includes surgical resection, embolization therapy, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and anti-angiogenic agents.

Background: Insulin edema is an uncommon but well-known complication of insulin therapy, mostly appreciated in patients soon after commencement or intensification of insulin therapy. Objectives: To report a case insulin edema in Type 1 Diabetes due to surreptitious excess self-insulin use triggered by poverty driven psychosocial stressors. Case Presentation: A 14-year girl with T1DM since age 8 years, with chronic poor glycemic control (Insulin 48 units/day basal-bolus; HbA1c 12.5%, despite 100% free medical care, medicines, diagnostics and counselling), presented with multiple episodes of unexplained hypoglycemia with documented low blood sugar readings (30-60 mg/dl) and “apparently” grossly decreased recent insulin requirements (4 units/day) This was associated with rapid weight gain, swelling of her face, limbs and abdomen as well as shortness of breath. Work up for acute/sub-acute renal, hepatic, cardiac, pulmonary or infectious disorders was negative. Fluid and salt restriction, close clinical monitoring and compassionate counselling resulted in prompt amelioration of hypoglycemia, resolution of edema, weight gain and shortness of breath. In-depth clinical assessment suggested the diagnosis of surreptitious excess insulin use, triggered by psychosocial and economic stressors, leading to factitious hypoglycemia and consequent insulin edema causing fluid retention and dyspnea. Discussion: To our knowledge, this is the first documented case of insulin edema in a patient previously diagnosed with T1DM due to the surreptitious use of insulin by the patient resulting from psychosocial stressors, similar to those in other published encounters. Conclusion: Insulin edema resulted from transient surreptitious (nontherapeutic) excess self-insulin use, triggered by psychosocial stressors.

Introduction: The amygdala has a central core role in regulating emotions. However, less is known about the racial/ethnic variation in the relevance of amygdala volume for emotion regulation of US children. According to the Minorities’ Diminished Returns (MDRs) phenomenon, due to racism, segregation, and social stratification (rather than innate differences due to genetics), some of the individual-level individual social determinants, could lose some of their relevance for African American (in comparison to White) children. Purpose: Conceptualizing race as a social factor that reflects structural racism and discrimination and building on the MDRs framework, we explored racial variation in the magnitude of the association between amygdala volume and emotion regulation/impulsivity of US children. Methods: For this cross-sectional study, we used baseline data which included behavioral, social, and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of 6030 US children ages 9-10. Data came from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study. The primary outcomes were positive and negative urgency. These were measured using Urgency, Premeditation (lack of), Perseverance (lack of), Sensation Seeking, Positive Urgency, and Impulsive Behavior Scale (UPPS-SS) UPPS-SS. The independent variables were right and left amygdala volume. The covariates were age, sex, parental education, household income, parental marital status, neighborhood socioeconomic status, and ethnicity. Race was the moderator. Results: Children with larger amygdala volumes had lower positive and negative urgency. The correlations between amygdala volume and positive and negative urgency were modified by race. For White children, children had better emotion regulation when they had a large amygdala. For African American children, positive and negative urgency did not show an association with amygdala size. Conclusions: The results can be explained by the Minorities’ Diminished Returns (MDRs) hypothesis. In line with MDRs and as a result of structural and interpersonal inequalities, such as school segregation, the amygdala-emotion regulation seen for White children does not replicate for African American children. For White children, however, in the absence of higher-level social determinants, amygdala size correlates with emotion regulation. The brainbehavior link is weaker for African American children whose lives are less predictable and affected by experiences of racial discrimination. Unequal effects of equal resources across racial groups are due to racism and discrimination, not biological innate differences such as genetics.

Volatility-based adjustments to portfolio risk assessment tools
Authors: Korzhnev S. V.
Published: February 2023

The article is devoted to the analysis of correlation between assets in the Russian stock market. The purpose of the study is to assess the stability of correlation coefficients. The results of the Jennrich test and correlation analysis carried out indicate that correlation coefficients differ significantly for different volatility levels, that is, the coefficients in times of high volatility are significantly higher than those in times of low volatility. Correlations during periods of heightened volatility are key for assessing risks, since it is such volatility that characterizes negative market movements. The use of conventional correlation coefficients leads to an overestimation of the role of diversification in reducing the volatility in a portfolio of Russian assets and thus an underestimation of the investment portfolio risks. Risks can be assessed more accurately if correlation coefficients corresponding to periods of high volatility are used.
