VR in French Cinematography:
Authors: Zunjic Savo
Published: October 2023

In my research I am trying to establish the relation between Cinema and VR. The cinematic approach to VR has been particularly strong in France, as a lot of professionals from the world of cinema have been investing themselves over the past decade into fi nding a way to make VR movies, and in that way to move beyond the limitations of traditional cinema and approach the holy grail of the pioneers of the cinema, defi ned by Basin as “total cinema”. In my text I propose to analyze some example/s of French VR movies, such as in Alteration, Eternal Notre-Dame, I Philip, and Notes on Blidness.

Published: October 2023

When migrating software to new hardware architectures, including the development of optimizing compilers for new platforms, there is a need for statistical analysis of data on the use of different machine instructions or their groups in the machine code of programs. This paper describes a new framework useful for statistical research on machine opcodes that is designed to be extensible and a dataset that can be used by other researchers. We automatically collect data on different GNU/Linux distributions and architectures and provide facilities for its statistical analysis and visualization. Related technical issues are discussed, and solutions to some of them are proposed.
Development and implementation of the digital steganography method based on the embedding of pseudoinformation
Authors: Gvozdeva Irina Gennadievna , Gromov Artem Sergeyevich , Gvozdeva Olga Mikhailovna
Published: October 2023

The article provides an overview of the main methods of steganography, on the basis of which a new method was developed, consisting in embedding additional text (pseudo-information) in parallel with the transmitted message. An algorithm of this method has been developed. In this case, the frequency of the bit sequence was obtained in accordance with the generated pseudo-random numbers. In accordance with the algorithm, an application has been developed that allows the sender to encrypt and place the message in a container that is an image, and the recipient to determine the presence of the message and, if there is one, extract it. A computational experiment was also conducted, which showed that an image with a fairly large embedded text does not visually differ from the original image.

Published: October 2023

Dynamic symbolic execution is a well-known technique for testing applications. It introduces symbolic variables – program data with no concrete value at the moment of instantiation – and uses them to systematically explore the execution paths in a program under analysis. However, not every value can be easily modelled as symbolic: for instance, some values may take values from restricted domains or have complex invariants, hard enough to model using existing logic theories, despite it is not a problem for concrete computations. In this paper, we propose an implementation of infrastructure for dealing with such “hard-to-be-modelled” values. We take the approach known as symcrete execution and implement its robust and scalable version in the well-known KLEE symbolic execution engine. We use this infrastructure to support the symbolic execution of LLVM programs with complex input data structures and input buffers with indeterminate sizes.
San Juan de la Cruz, lector del Maestro Eckhart
Authors: Bara-Bancel Silvia
Published: October 2023

En las Opera omnia de Tauler, traducidas al latín por Surio en 1548, se encontraban numerosas referencias explícitas al Maestro Eckhart, además de veinticinco textos suyos. Se indicaba que era el autor de tres sermones y se brindaban algunos de sus Dichos y leyendas. Por tanto, Juan de la Cruz tuvo acceso a estos escritos, que le inspiraron e influyeron, como apuntó Orcibal en 1966. En esta contribución se recorren los sermones de Eckhart presentes en la versión latina de Surio-Tauler, según su orden de aparición, y se señalan nuevas evidencias de la influencia eckhartiana en Juan de la Cruz.

Authors: Quy Quyen Phan Thi , Van Anh Le Thi , Le Han Ho , My Kieu Tran Thi , Ngoc Thu Tran Thi , Dong Phuong Nguyen Thi
Published: October 2023

Larvae live in soil have been well known for containing abundant microbiota in their gut. This study isolated six bacterial genera from the gut of larvae Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis including Bacillus, Cellulosimicrobium, Microbacterium, Streptomyces, Krasilnikoviella and Isoptericola based on specific media. Among these six genera, Cellulosimicrobium was collected for further analysis of cellulose-degrading features because of the most abundance and less studies up to now. Based on the 16S rDNA gene, the Cellulosimicrobium isolates were classified to C. cellulans, C. aquatile, C. funkei, C. protaetiae that were respectively isolated from four specific media such as modified ISP-2, MRS, modified anaerobic medium, modified fermentation medium. The analysis of their genome proved the presence of genes encoding for chitinases, alkyl resorcinol, and glucosidase in four strains. These cellulose degrading enzymes were useful for textile processing, paper recycling, production of nutritional supplements, food industry, production of alcohol from lignocellulosic materials, and beneficial microorganisms in denitrification and N-cycling in forest ecosystem as well as wastewater process.

Published: October 2023

La vulnerabilidad se ha convertido en un tema fundamental en todas las sociedades, ya que su impacto no solo involucra las relaciones entre los individuos, sino a todas las esferas de la sociedad. Consciente del desarrollo de este concepto, desde el ámbito jurídico, la vulnerabilidad ha empezado a desarrollarse legal y jurisprudencialmente, ya que el bienestar de los derechos no depende solo de la accesibilidad, sino también de la forma de protección que brindan las diferentes entidades públicas y privadas que hacen parte del funcionamiento del Estado para evitar la exposición al riesgo. Conscientes de los desafíos que presenta el fenómeno de la vulnerabilidad y preocupados por defender los derechos fundamentales y su función social, el Consultorio Jurídico de la Facultad de Derecho, de la Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, sede Bogotá, presenta esta guía. Esta es una estrategia pedagógica para entender el concepto de vulnerabilidad a través de la jurisprudencia de la Corte Constitucional de la República de Colombia. Su entendimiento es vital para la oportuna atención y formulación de soluciones a los problemas en concreto. Para el Consultorio Jurídico de la Facultad de Derecho, es necesario que las personas estén informadas acerca de las diferentes categorías, características y desarrollos del concepto de vulnerabilidad que ha sido objeto de reflexión por la Corte Constitucional de Colombia, a través de las diferentes sentencias de tutela, de unificación y constitucionales.

Authors:   National Research Nuclear University MEPhI, Abramov Victor I. , Andreev Vitaly D. ,   National Research Nuclear University MEPhI
Published: October 2023

Introduction: the situation of sanctions and the formation of a new technological order require new sources and technologies for regional development. Digital transformation is a national goal, and the development of the country depends on the quality and pace of its implementation in the regions. Russia has developed and is implementing strategies for digital transformation in the regions; however, the search for new approaches to their improvement is relevant. A promising area of territorial development is the creation of regional ecosystems based on digital platforms. Objective: to analyze and summarize approaches to defining the digital ecosystem of the region, to identify its structural components as well as to consider the economic and social effects of introducing digital ecosystems in the regions. Methods: systematic and structural approaches, general scientific methods of cognition: analysis, comparison, logical reasoning, collection of facts, synthesis. Results: based on the analysis of approaches to the digital ecosystem of the region definition and the analysis of foreign and domestic experience in its building the following definition of the digital ecosystem of the region is proposed. This is a digital macro-environment for the interaction of citizens, businesses, and authorities, contributing to the stable and sustainable socio-economic development of the region by improving the quality of management decisions by organizing a mechanism for collecting and processing information about the region’s infrastructure in real time using end-to-end digital technologies. The study has identified the following structural components of the digital ecosystem of the region: end-to-end digital technologies, a digital platform, data, participants, network interactions, services, rights, and obligations of participants. The effectiveness of the digital ecosystem of the region is reflected in the reduction of operating costs for providing the digital infrastructure of the region, increasing regional budget revenues, and optimizing the budget of the region. Conclusions: building digital ecosystems at the level of the Russian Federation constituent entities is viewed as advisable. This process is strategically significant, as it provides tools for standardization of regional management and ensures the transition to the second and third stages of digital transformation of public administration. The practical feasibility of building digital ecosystems in specific regions and territories is based on their positive impact on the general condition, functioning and further development of socio-economic environment.
Intra-country academic mobility as a tool of national development (a case study of political science education)
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Tsybriaeva Marina V.
Published: October 2023

Introduction: academic mobility plays an important role in the building international scientific and educational communications in the modern system of Russian higher education and acts as a tool of “soft power”. Online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic helped to increase the attractiveness of virtual academic mobility, while there is practically no interest from Russian government in the development of intra-country academic mobility. Objectives: to show the issues and the prospects for the development of intra-country academic mobility in the field of professional political science education. Methods: institutional method, a content analysis, a comparative analysis. Results: analysis of the websites of metropolitan and regional universities included in the academic leadership program “Priority 2030” and carrying out the educational process in the fields of study 41.03.04 and 41.04.04 “Political Science” showed that all higher educational institutions have sections on the academic mobility realization as an international vector of cooperation. However, the development of intra-country academic mobility is in its infancy. Conclusions: the systematic development of academic mobility within the country in the field of professional political science education will contribute to the training of highly qualified specialists capable of analyzing the socioeconomic and political situation in a particular Russian region, which, to a large extent, will allow achieving the main goals of Russia’s national development.
Review of Intra-Articular Use of Antibiotics and Antiseptic Irrigation and Their Systematic Association with Chondrolysis
Authors: Post Hunter , Blankespoor Michael , Ierulli Victoria , Morey Tucker , Schroeppel J. Paul , Mulcahey Mary , Vopat Bryan , Vopat Matthew
Published: October 2023

Introduction. Intra-articular antibiotics have been proposed as a treatment for septic arthritis to allow for high local concentrations without subjecting a patient to the toxicity/side effects of systemic therapy. However, there is concern for chondrotoxicity with intra-articular use of these solutions in high concentrations. The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the intra-articular use of antibiotics and antiseptic solutions, and to determine their association with chondrolysis following in vitro or in vivo administration.
Methods. A systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines through PubMed, Clinical Key, OVID, and Google Scholar. Studies in English were included if they evaluated for chondrotoxicity following antibiotic exposure.
Results. The initial search resulted in 228 studies, with 36 meeting criteria. Overall, 7 of the 24 (29%) agents were non-chondrotoxic: minocycline, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, teicoplanin, pefloxacin, linezolid, polymyxin-bacitracin. Eight (33%) agents had inconsistent results: doxycycline, ceftriaxone, gentamicin, vancomycin, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, chlorhexidine, and povidone iodine. Chondrotoxicity was evident with 9 (38%) agents, all of which were also dose-dependently chondrotoxic based on reported estimated half maximal inhibitory concentrations (est.IC50): amikacin (est. IC50 = 0.31-2.74 mg/mL), neomycin (0.82), cefazolin (1.67-3.95), ceftazidime (3.16-3.59), ampicillin-sulbactam (8.64 - >25), penicillin (11.61), amoxicillin (14.01), imipenem (>25), and tobramycin (>25). Additionally, chondroprotective effects of doxycycline and minocycline were reported.
Conclusions. This systematic review identified agents that may be used in the treatment of septic arthritis. Nine agents should be avoided due to their dose-dependent chondrotoxic effects. Further studies are needed to clarify the safety of these medications for human intra-articular use.
Resident Physicians’ Perceptions of Trauma Informed Care: Findings from a Small-scale Descriptive Study
Authors: Nutting Ruth , Nilsen Kari , Engle Rachel , Wells Kyle , Scoville Hannah
Published: October 2023

Introduction. Screening for adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) is a significant component of trauma informed care (TIC), as intervention can mitigate negative health outcomes. The American Academy of Pediatrics has called on physicians to address toxic stress. However, as few as 4% of physicians with pediatric patients screen and intervene for ACEs. The authors of this study sought to: 1) understand resident physicians’ perceptions of TIC; 2) identify areas of training needed to improve screening and intervention of ACEs.
Methods. This pilot study occurred in a large Midwestern Family Medicine residency and involved a convenience sample of 54 resident physicians. Participants completed a survey questionnaire, which included a total of 22 Likert-scale and open-ended questions. Descriptive frequencies were used to represent Likert-scale responses, and the open-ended questions were analyzed utilizing a thematic analysis approach. 
Results. Participants identified screening for ACEs as useful. However, they reported a lack of confidence in their ability to screen and intervene. Barriers to screening and intervention were also noted and included lack of time, discomfort in assessment, perceived inability to help, insufficient knowledge and skills, and competing primary care recommendations.
Conclusions. Family Medicine residents value TIC. However, lack of confidence, competing primary care recommendations, and concern for receptiveness can deter residents from screening and intervention. Graduate medical education must focus on building systems of training that provide learners with the knowledge, skills, and resources to routinely screen and intervene for ACEs in primary care.
Uma Nova Forma de Precariedade (da Prática)? A Descompetencialização Profissional no Centro do Sequestro da Qualidade no Jornalismo
Authors: Quintanilha Tiago Lima
Published: October 2023

Este artigo procura responder a uma das principais lacunas identificáveis no debate sobre descompetencialização profissional no jornalismo. Esta lacuna consiste numa dificuldade em isolar da restante polissemia conceptual este conceito que é crítico na interpretação dos desafios impostos ao jornalismo, que são múltiplos e que vão da erosão da dominação profissional às crises de valores, passando pela instabilidade de modelos de negócio com impacto acentuado na reconfiguração da divisão do trabalho jornalístico.Para tal, e com recurso a uma sistematização da literatura sobre descompetencialização profissional, chegamos a uma definição estruturada e maximalista deste conceito no jornalismo. Definição que resulta fundamentalmente da arrumação dos múltiplos significados em dois indutores principais: a despadronização do trabalho jornalístico e o imediatismo na produção jornalística. Uma descompetencialização na profissão de jornalista que, conclui-se, constitui um novo tipo de precariedade da prática, capaz de capturar a qualidade jornalística e que vai além das tradicionais e muito documentadas precariedades do emprego e do trabalho.Por fim, ensaiamos pistas futuras para continuar a acompanhar os ritmos de transformação profissional e a forma como estes continuarão a abalar competências jornalísticas e a qualidade da prática profissional, nomeadamente o fenómeno da automação digital no jornalismo com capacidade para ditar o regresso ao debate sobre descompetencialização profissional no jornalismo.
Дискурсивные стратегии власти и НКО: манипуляция успехом и достижениями
Authors: Архипова Елена
Published: October 2023

В данной статье представлены результаты дискурс-анализа властной и публичной риторики, сопровождающей современные процессы трансформации социального государства. Исследования последних лет свидетельствуют о слабой информированности граждан о происходящих изменениях и сохраняющемся недоверии к ключевым субъектам социальной политики, особенно к новым, негосударственным поставщикам социальных услуг. В фокусе внимания находятся официальные выступления и интервью представителей министерства труда и социальной защиты, главы государства, представителей правительства и региональных министерств, а также руководителей НКО. Эмпирическую базу исследования составили 65 источников (стенограммы выступлений и журналистские статьи). Базируясь на идеях критического дискурс-анализа, а именно концепции Т. Ван Дейка, сделан акцент на том, как формируют дискурс ведомственные структуры, какие инструменты манипуляции используются для сохранения доминирующей позиции, а также как некоммерческий сектор отстаивает свое право на активное участие в реализации социальной политики. По итогам исследования сделан вывод, что основной дискурсивной стратегией власти и НКО является стратегия самопрезентации, цель которой заключается в формировании положительного имиджа в ситуации необходимости оправдания общественных ожиданий. Результаты показали, что информационное поле вокруг процессов трансформации социального государства с обеих сторон характеризуется стремлением к манипулированию, чрезмерному демонстрированию успехов, а не желанием комплексно представлять ситуацию в сфере социальных услуг с точки зрения критериев объективности, непредвзятости, авторитетности и правдивости. Существующий дискурс власти и НКО не способствует формированию институциального доверия к различным государственным и общественным структурам, ответственным за решение социальных проблем российского общества, и требует существенной корректировки.
Отношение жителей Санкт-­Петербурга к сфере социального обслуживания населения
Authors: Романенко Вероника , Сулимова Алина
Published: October 2023

Анализ изменений социального обслуживания и помощи населению в контексте развития российского социального государства и нестабильности условий этого развития является важной научной проблемой. Пандемия коронавирусной инфекции ускорила развитие виртуальной коммуникации как между получателями социальных услуг и их поставщиками, так и в целом между гражданами и государством. Цифровизация социальных услуг, появление социальных предприятий малого и среднего бизнеса, включение социально ориентированных некоммерческих организаций (СО НКО) в официальные реестры поставщиков социальных услуг и иные нововведения последних лет свидетельствуют об изменениях в сфере социального обслуживания как на федеральном, так и на региональных уровнях. Целью представленного исследования стало изучение актуальных трендов развития социальной помощи с акцентом на анализ общественного мнения. Онлайн опрос стал важной методологической составляющей этого исследования. В фокусе внимания авторов лежат новые формы социального обслуживания населения, в том числе процессы цифровизации социальных сервисов, что ведет к необходимости учета мнений пользователей цифровой среды. Социологический опрос проведен методом поточной выборки (river sampling), сформированной посредством анонса опроса в наиболее популярной в Петербурге социальной сети ВКонтакте (705 респондентов). Результаты опроса подкреп­лены анализом интервью с представителями социальных служб. По результатам исследования отмечается невысокая осведомленность петербуржцев о новых формах социального обслуживания, в частности, речь идет о службе социальных участковых. Прослеживается тренд на развитие цифровых форм получения услуг (ГОСУСЛУГИ, агрегаторы информации) и востребованность горячих телефонных линий социальной помощи. Проблемным полем расширения сервисов социальных услуг остается вопрос доверия населения в целом и к отдельным акторам: большинство опрошенных полагают, что в случае трудной жизненной ситуации, скорее всего, они не получат необходимую социальную помощь, что свидетельствует о невысоком уровне доверия к социальному обслуживанию в целом. При этом прослеживается низкая степень доверия к НКО и к социальным предприятиям по сравнению с государственным сектором. Однако практика волонтерства и взаимопомощи вызывает у респондентов позитивный отклик, что может быть учтено при разработке программ поддержки негосударственного социального сектора.
Ситуационные неравенства в пандемию и особенности адаптации пожилых в постпандемийное время на примере Санкт-­Петербурга и сельских районов Карелии
Authors: Галкин Константин
Published: October 2023

В статье рассматривается проблема ситуационных неравенств, возникающих в жизни пожилых людей как в городах, так и в сельской местности в период пандемии. Исследование базируется на микросоциологической методологии, что позволяет рассмотреть влияние ситуационных неравенств на жизнь пожилых и способы их адаптации во время и после пандемии, акцентируя внимание на процессах защиты и самосохранения. Эмпирическую основу исследования составили 30 полуструктурированных интервью, проведенных в 2022 г. в Санкт-­Петербурге и сельских районах Республики Карелия. Исследование повседневных особенностей проявления неравенств и эйджизма осуществлялось с использованием современных социологических подходов. Ключевыми задачами стали: изучение наиболее распространенных форм неравенств в жизни пожилых и анализ их разнообразных аспектов, например, доступ к информации, доступ к медицинской помощи, а также пространственные ограничения. Делается вывод, что пожилые люди находят пути адаптации к социальным изменениям в пандемийное и постпандемийное время с помощью таких стратегий, как эмоциональное рефлексирование о прошлом, хобби, пересмотр старых ресурсов и поиск новых, изменение способов общения и решения проблем. Стремление к заботе о собственном благополучии становится важным фокусом внимания пожилых в повседневной рутине. Отмеченные стратегии создают позитивные возможности для адаптации, способствуют снижению страхов и тревожности пожилых относительно возможного возвращения к аналогичным ситуациям, подобным пандемии COVID‑19, и связанным с ней неравенствам.

Distinct genetic variants of early and late-onset prostate cancer
Authors: Victor Chalfant , Samuel Serrano , Mohamed Al-Toubat , Carlos Riveros , Ahmed Elshafei , KC Balaji
Published: October 2023

Background: The incidence of early-onset Prostate Cancer (PCa) has increased in the last two decades. Men diagnosed with PCa before age 55 have lower 5-year relative survival rates compared to patients diagnosed later in life. Given the enhanced lethality of early-onset PCa, our aim is to evaluate somatic differences between early and late-onset PCa. Methods: Patients with PCa were dichotomized into early (< 55 years old) and late-onset PCa (≥ 55 years old). Data is derived from the American Association for Cancer Research Project Genomics Evidence Neoplasia Information Exchange (GENIE) registry. The GENIE registry contains sequenced tumor samples and clinical data across many cancers a total of 4,546 Patients and 5,740 samples were included with pathologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma. The data is derived from 17 cancer centers from 2011 to 2021. Patterns in somatic gene tumor profiles were compared between early-onset and late-onset PCa using a chi-square test and logistic regression. Results: A total of 452 (11.0%) patients had early-onset PCa while 3640 (89.0%) patients had late-onset PCa. Patients with early-onset PCa were more likely to be Black (12.2% vs. 7.7%) and less likely to have metastatic disease (32.0% vs. 45.0%). After logistic regression, early-onset PCa patients had higher odds of having a mutation in CDK12 [1.51 (95% CI: 1.04-2.22)] and ERF [1.81 (95% CI: 1.02-3.24)]. Patients with a CDK12 mutation were more likely to be Black [1.92 (95% CI: 1.28-2.86); p = 0.002) and to have metastatic disease [1.53 (95% CI: 1.16-2.01); p = 0.003). Conclusion: Patients with early-onset PCa had distinct somatic gene tumor mutations in ERF and CDK12. Therapeutic targeting of genes associated with early-onset PCa can be potentially useful in future clinical studies.

The EU Approach to Safeguard Children’s Rights on Video-Sharing Platforms: Jigsaw or Maze?
Authors: Verdoodt Valerie , Lievens Eva , Chatzinikolaou Argyro
Published: October 2023

Children are keen consumers of audiovisual media content. Video-sharing platforms (VSPs), such as YouTube and TikTok, offer a wealth of child-friendly or child-appropriate content but also content which—depending on the age of the child—might be considered inappropriate or potentially harmful. Moreover, such VSPs often deploy algorithmic recommender systems to personalise the content that children are exposed to (e.g., through auto-play features), leading to concerns about diversity of content or spirals of content related to, for instance, eating disorders or self-harm. This article explores the responsibilities of VSPs with respect to children that are imposed by existing, recently adopted, and proposed EU legislation. Instruments that we investigate include the Audiovisual Media Services Directive, the General Data Protection Regulation, the Digital Services Act, and the proposal for an Artificial Intelligence Act. Based on a legal study of policy documents, legislation, and scholarship, this contribution investigates to what extent this legislative framework sets obligations for VSPs to safeguard children’s rights and discusses how these obligations align across different legislative instruments.
Analysis of the results of the study of vibrations the supporting structure of the gates of spillway structures during the operation of hydroelectric power plants
Authors: Evdokimov Sergey V.
Published: October 2023

The article discusses the features of the operation of the main gates of spillway structures during the operation of the HPP. As it is known, the main spillway gates are installed at the outlet of the spillway openings into the downstream of the hydroelectric power station. The gates serve to block the openings of the spillway structure, which is opened to discharge water into a flood, as well as in the event of a disaster with an overlying hydroelectric power plant, thereby ensuring reliable operation of the entire water supply path of the hydroelectric power plant. Using the example of the Zhigulevskaya HPP, during the operation of the gates of the spillway structures, stresses in the gate structures, vibrations of the gate elements and the magnitude of the forces in the gate rod during lifting and lowering operations were determined, which made it possible to identify defects in their operation and determine recommendations for their elimination. In addition, the article discusses the results of the study of vibrations of the supporting structure of the gates of the hydroelectric power plant, which could be obtained only after identifying the features of the main gates on the spillway structures during the operation of the hydropower plant. Regarding the nature and origin of the measured oscillations, it can be said that it is not possible to give a clear explanation of the causes and physical nature of the gate oscillations at the HPP, therefore, the article considers two cases as a result of which periodic undamped gate oscillations may occur. Since it has been established that the periodic undamped oscillations registered on the gate could only be caused by a periodic disturbing force, the cause of such oscillations may be the periodic separation of vortices from the lower face of the gate. As a result, the analysis of the study of vibrations, the supporting structure of the shutter showed that the main disturbing forces for the shutter could be: pulsation of the flow pressure on the upper and lower surfaces of the shutter; dynamic forces arising when the vortices are detached from the lower face of the shutter when water flows out from under it. The article provides recommendations for avoiding vibration of the shutter in subsequent periods of operation.

The article presents the results of the estimated assessment of the clay raw materials of the West Kazakhstan Pogodaevsky and Taskalinsky fields. The calculation was made by the chemical composition of clays, focusing on the formation of low-melting triple aluminosilicate eutectics. Based on the calculated data, the melt formation dynamics curves were built, from which the possible sintering degree, sintering intervals and the recommended firing temperature were determined. A forecast was made for a change in the properties of clay raw materials with the introduction of 2% alkaline oxides. The optimal directions of use of these clays and firing parameters are determined.

In the article, the team of authors conducted a study of the threats to the nature conservation objects of Ukraine that have arisen due to the Russian military invasion, the consequences of the war, and proposed a number of measures for the effective preservation of protected objects in the future. A characteristic feature of the work is the use of qualitative sociological methods. In order to analyze security measures, the interaction of nature protection zone teams with the government and the public, the problem of collaborationism, damage assessment methods and other related issues, the authors conducted a series of in-depth interviews with employees of 12 Ukrainian nature reserves, national nature parks and other natural objects - a reserve fund that was directly affected by the war and occupation in 2014-2022 with an emphasis on the consequences of the full-scale Russian invasion in Ukraine. The authors proposed recommendations for nature conservation facilities on how to make the work of nature protection facility teams more efficient, safe and effective in the restoration of damaged ecosystems in protected areas. A lot of attention is paid to current and prospective methods of assessing damage caused to nature. This is especially important in the context of Ukraine’s lawsuits in international courts against the aggressor state in order to prepare a legally convincing argument for compensation for environmental damages. New principles of care for nature conservation areas are also being considered. In particular, instead of artificial ecosystems that require constant human intervention, a return to a natural landscape that reproduces itself is proposed.

We report a case of a 26-year-old patient presenting as a polytrauma with multiple devastating injuries, including a 1 cm destructive injury to the common bile duct (CBD) along with a laceration to the inferior vena cava (IVC). Studies on temporization strategies for common bile duct injuries in the context of damage control surgery are scarce, and guidelines for management of such injuries are limited due to low quality evidence. Surgical treatment for injuries to the extrahepatic bile ducts are individualized based on location, severity, and stability. In stable patients with less than 50% circumference injuries and healthy common bile duct margins, definitive repair can be attempted primarily. Destructive injuries that encompass greater than 50% circumference in stable patients are more challenging and there is controversy surrounding early versus delayed biliary reconstruction. In this case, an adequately sized T-tube was not available, and closed suction drainage was dismissed due to potential complications with early reconstruction. Due to the patient's critical condition and extraordinary circumstances, a LeMaitre carotid shunt was used to temporize the common bile duct injury for 6 days, a technique not previously described. The patient was then reconstructed with a hepaticojejunostomy in Roux-en-y fashion with a favorable outcome. We believe that this method of temporization may be an especially useful tool in the armamentarium of the surgeon practicing in an austere environment.

Background: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio has been extensively studied as a prognostic factor for various diseases based on systemic inflammation. Premature rupture of membranes is an obstetric problem that does not only occur in term pregnancies but can also occur in preterm pregnancies. One of the main etiologies for premature rupture of membranes is inflammation. Knowing the difference in the NLR between preterm premature rupture of membranes and without PPROM is important to increase understanding of the crucial role of NLR in predicting the incidence of PPROM.
Methods:  This analytic case-control study compared NLR values ​​in maternal blood serum between PPROM and without PPROM. This research was conducted in the emergency delivery room and obstetrics and gynecology outpatient clinic at Prof. dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah Hospital Denpasar from February to June 2022.
Results: A high NLR in maternal blood serum may be a risk factor for PPROM. Patients with a high NLR had a 4.5 times greater likelihood of experiencing PPROM than those with a low NLR (OR=4.5; 95% CI=1.4-13.83; p=0.007).
Conclusions: A high NLR in maternal blood serum is a marker of inflammation with an increased risk of 4.5 times for the occurrence of PPROM.

Background: Pathology diagnosis is key to critical decision making in clinical medicine. In clinico-pathologic consults, there may be errors in pathologic diagnoses resulting in delayed or inappropriate treatment, hence impaired quality of care. Seeking a second opinion on a pathology consults is one procedure that enhances quality of healthcare services. In the spate of medical litigations, some doctors are either not aware of the procedure or do not utilize second opinion pathology consults (SOPCs).
Methods: This cross sectional study used an online structured questionnaire to assess the awareness of and utilization of SOPCs by clinicians in Nigeria. Information regarding socio-demography, cadre, years in practice, reasons for utilization or non-utilization and modalities for seeking SOPCs were collected.
Results: Of the 511 respondents, 75.7% of whom practiced in government-run tertiary hospitals, 33.5% have never utilised SOPC. Surgeons (29.7%) and gynaecologists (12.1%) are the major users of SOPCs; utilization of which is associated with cadre (p= 0.001) and not years of practice (p= 0.199). 24.3% divided specimen between pathologists, 15.5% sent a fresh specimen, 15.2% and 24.1% sent out the same slides and tissue blocks respectively, used for the first diagnosis. 65.8% SOPC requests were not accompanied with the first pathologist’s report.
Conclusions: SOPC is an important component of a total quality assurance that helps reduce the overall cost of patient care. Many clinicians are not aware of SOPC procedure, hence the under-utilization. It is our opinion that proper enlightenment of clinicians will bridge this gap in knowledge and enhance better practice.
