The article is devoted to the global problems of modern medicine – HIV infection and the COVID-19 pandemic. The review of the literature highlights current ideas about the pathogenesis and course of COVID-19 in patients with HIV infection, and also touches upon the problems of concomitant pathology and mental health of patients with HIV in the setting of the COVID-19 pandemic. It has been shown that HIV-positive patients are a risk group for the severe course of COVID-19, in particular, individuals with severe immunodeficiency (CD4+ T lymphocytes ≤ 200 cells/µl) due to the development of synergetic lung damage by SARS-CoV-2 and secondary infectious agents such as cytomegalovirus and Pneumocystis carinii. It has been proven that one of the targets of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is CD4+ T cells, which in COVID-19 leads to a more rapid progression of immunodeficiency in patients with HIV infection and, thus, significantly increases the risk of secondary diseases and death. Particular attention should be paid to middle-aged and elderly people living with HIV, who, compared with HIV-negative patients, are more likely to have concomitant pathology – arterial hypertension, cardiomyopathy and diabetes mellitus, which are the risk factors for severe COVID-19. The results of studies on the effect of antiretroviral drugs on the course of COVID-19 showed that HIV-infected patients receiving tenofovir + emtricitabine have a lower risk of severe COVID-19 and associated hospitalization than patients receiving other HIV treatment regimens. Clinical and preclinical data support the potential use of tenofovir in the treatment of novel coronavirus infection.

Terellia hajastanica, a new species of tephritid flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) associated with Centaurea pseudoscabiosa subsp. glehnii (Asteraceae) in Armenia
Authors: Evstigneev D.A.
Published: December 2022

A new species of tephritid flies, Terellia hajastanica sp. nov., is described from Armenia. The new species belongs to the T. virens species–group and is characterised by the combination of entirely hyaline wing, orange spots on the katepisternum and meron, longitudinal orange stripe running from anterior spiracle through the anepisternum to anepimeron, and the glans of phallus similar in shape to that of T. arailerica Evstigneev, 2021. The phallus in both the species has a long tubular extension of the glans, with filaments separated from each other near the apex of extension. The glans of the new species is smaller, has a shorter portion of tubular extension between the rod and bifurcation of the filaments. The new species is similar to T. babaki V. Korneyev, 2017 from the T. amberboae species–group in the presence of orange stripe on the pleura. Larvae of the new species develop in the capitula of Centaurea pseudoscabiosa subsp. glehnii and pupate therein, whereas the larvae of T. arailerica develop in the capitula of C. spectabilis and pupate in their stems.
An optoelectronic system for controlling a direct current motor
Authors: Syroka Zenon
Published: December 2022

The software for an optoelectronic system for controlling a direct current (DC) motor is presented in Part 2 of the article. The structure of the designed control system was described in Part 1. The developed system processes data received from an infrared transmitter. The project was upgraded in successive stages of development, and it ultimately evolved into a small computer with a motor controller. The designed system automatically adjusts the motor’s rotation and speed. The user is tasked only with conveying operational commands. The entire system is based on a single microcontroller.  The designed optoelectronic system receives user commands (the program can be modified to support free-space optical communication networks conforming to all communication standards). The system activates the motor, counts the number of rotations and adjusts the motor’s position. The designed system operates on the following principle: the user sends commands to the motor via a remote control with an infrared diode. The keys on the remote control have been programmed with different commands. The transmitted data are processed by the system which activates the motor and sets the desired motor speed. The task is completed, and the system is ready to process the next command. If the number of rotations differs from the preset value, the motor’s position is adjusted. If the physical position of the rotor axis is altered, the system corrects the offset to the last programmed position. The designed system can be easily adapted to various types of motors and IR controllers.

Leopold I and Belgian Policy on the Eve of the Crimean War
Authors: Khorosheva Aleksandra
Published: December 2022

In this article, the author analyses the foreign policy efforts of King Leopold I of Belgium, namely his attempts during the international crisis to maintain the European balance on which the future of the Belgian state depended. Prior to the Crimean War, the monarch believed that the main threat of destabilisation emanated from France and sought the support of the three great powers, namely Great Britain, Austria and Russia, but soon the aggravation of the Eastern Question, in which the powers that had guaranteed Belgian neutrality in 1831 and 1839 became adversaries, presented Leopold I with a challenge to mediate a peaceful resolution of the conflict. The purpose of this study is to trace the extent to which the head of a neutral state tried to mediate and reconcile the parties and to show the results of his activities. The sources are documents from the Foreign Policy Archive of the Russian Empire, as well as published personal correspondence between the king and monarchs, statesmen, and representatives of foreign powers. The author concludes that the formation of the Anglo-French military-political alliance in March 1854 and the declaration of war on Russia forced the King to adapt his policy to the existing international situation, including the settlement of relations between Belgium and France. At the same time, documents indicate that Leopold I's position towards Russia had not changed and that the dialogue between the two countries, based on mutual support, persisted.
China and Afghanistan: the State of Relations after the Withdrawal of U.S. Troops
Authors: Safronova Elena
Published: December 2022

The article describes the state and directions of Sino-Afghan relations after the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan in August 2021. To substantiate a number of points, it provides information about Sino-Afghan relations under the former, republican government of the country. The Chinese stance on establishing ties with the Taliban who seized power in Afghanistan on August 15, 2021 is analyzed, its motivation and main provisions, including non-interference in the internal affairs, rejection of the financial sanctions against the new regime, etc., are described.
 
It is pointed out that China's main interests in Afghanistan are, firstly, to ensure the security of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of the PRC, which for decades has been the target of Uyghur separatists from Afghanistan (the ETIM movement). And, secondarily, with the prospects for developing the country's enormous, valuable natural resources, as well as using its geographical location to create an infrastructure system in Central and South Asia. The current state of economic cooperation between China and the new Afghan authorities is described, and its goals and difficulties are revealed. The reasons for China's restrained political behavior in Afghanistan with an explicit focus on the economic aspect of bilateral dialogue are also discussed. The issue of Beijing's diplomatic recognition of the new Kabul regime is raised and it is noted that it will not be rapid due to the risk of reputational losses for China and the ambiguous perception of the Taliban in the world. It concludes with the question of what China can expect if Afghanistan's economic development is not a priority for the Taliban authorities and China's strive to cooperation is not adequately responded to? It concludes that, despite circumstances favoring the PRC's entry into Afghanistan's political and economic landscape, conditions for a close bilateral partnership with the Taliban are not yet ripe due to its riskiness and prognostic uncertainty.
Evaluate the correlation of Inflammatory Cytokines with Chlamydia pneumonia in Coronary Atherosclerotic Patients
Authors: AL-Barzinji Ruqaya M. , Rahman Lajan Q.
Published: December 2022

Background: Coronary atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease, caused by high concentrations of plasma cholesterol, in particular those with high concentrations of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, which considered as one of the principal risk factors for atherosclerosis.Objective: The study focused on detecting risk factors and biomarkers for coronary atherosclerotic in order to develop interventions preventing their progressions.Patients and Methods: The present case control study was carried out between December 2012 and May 2013, in Hawler cardiac center, 74 coronary atherosclerotic patients were enrolled in our study (44 males and 30 females), their age ranged between 30 years to 75 years old, 25 (33.8%) were type 2 diabetes, 51 (68.9%) were hypertensive and 29(39.2%) were obese. Apparently 40 healthy individuals were also joined in this study. The sera were subjected to assessment of some inflammatory biomarkers including high sensitive C- reactive proten (CRP), Interleukin-6(IL-6), Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α), IL-10, leptin, leptin receptor and Chlamydia pneumonia (C.pneumonia).Results: Serum concentrations of high sensitive CRP, TNF-α, C.pneumonia and IL-10 in obese coronary atherosclerotic patients (CAPS) were significantly higher than non-obese patients (P≤0.01), indeed IL-6, leptin and leptin receptor also significantly increased in obese patients(P≤0.05). Same results with serum CRP, IL-6 and IL-10 levels in diabetic patients than non-diabetic patients (P≤0.05). However, TNF-α in diabetic patients was significantly higher than non-diabetic patients (P≤0.01). Serum concentration of high sensitivity CRP in hypertensive patients was statistically significant than non-hypertensive patients (P≤0.05).
Conclusions: Our study revealed that various factors have been introduced in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis such as: age, sex, diabetes, hypertension, obesity, defect in lipid metabolism and change in the concentration of various lipoproteins of cholesterol.

Der Titel des neuen englischsprachigen Theorie-Handbuchs ist vielversprechend – könnte es doch dazu beitragen, die bedauerliche Literaturlücke zu schließen, die sich mit Blick auf kompetente, aktuelle und umfassende Zusammenstellungen theoretischer Ansätze, die sich konkret auf das Verständnis öffentlicher Organisationen beziehen, auftut. Betrachtet man allerdings das inhaltliche Spektrum und die fachliche Ausführung näher, entpuppt sich der Sammelband als eine bittere Enttäuschung. Insgesamt führt die Veröffentlichung 26 Beiträge zusammen, die in fünf Abschnitte gegliedert sind, deren Überschriften auf Funktionen öffentlicher Organisationen (wie „Personal“ und „Organisation“) bezugnehmen, aber auch „internationale Perspektiven“ anbieten. An die Stelle systematischer und fachkundiger Übersichten treten jedoch eher zufällige Schwerpunktsetzungen, die wesentliche Theorierichtungen unbeachtet lassen. Die Einzelbeiträge sind weniger an theoretischen Argumentationen interessiert, als an normativen Trends und empirische Entwicklungen, insbesondere vor dem Hintergrund des öffentlichen Sektors in den USA. Leider verzichtet der Sammelband auf einführende und zusammenfassende Querschnittskapitel sowie auf vergleichbare Kapitelstrukturen, so dass sich der Eindruck einer disparaten Sammlung verfestigt.
Subjekt, Objekt und die Wirkmacht des Exterioren. Zur Frage nach machtanalytischen Zugängen in aktuellen Debatten der Praxeologischen Wissenssoziologie
Authors: Hertel Thorsten
Published: December 2022

Ausgehend von einer Rekapitulation der jüngeren Debatte um neue methodologische Kategorien fragt der Beitrag nach dem Stellenwert machtanalytischer Perspektiven innerhalb der Praxeologischen Wissenssoziologie. In der Bezugnahme auf die vorhergehenden Debattenbeiträge wird eine Perspektive vorgeschlagen, die Macht als stets relationales, dem Subjekt aber gleichsam exteriores Phänomen denkt und die Differenz Subjekt/Objekt als relationale Positionierung innerhalb von Machtverhältnissen versteht. Die Perspektive wird im Dialog mit an Foucault anschließenden Konzepten, unter Rückgriff auf empirische Studien zum Phänomen der Rahmungsmacht sowie schließlich in Bezug auf die Frage nach den machtvollen Wirkungen ‚algorithmischen Wissens‘ im Kontext digitaler Medialität entfaltet.
Prozessorientierte betriebliche Gesundheitsforschung. Integration bei bedingter Gesundheit im Arbeitsalltag
Authors: Hergesell Jannis
Published: December 2022

Die Aushandlung über Verbleib in oder Rückkehr zur Arbeit bei veränderter Gesundheit ist ein komplexer sozialer Prozess in welchem heterogene Akteure interagieren und organisationale Rahmenbedingungen wirken. Ob eine Integration gelingt, wird demnach maßgeblich im betrieblichen Alltag verhandelt. In meinem Beitrag nutze ich das Potential qualitativ-interpretativer Gesundheitsforschung, diese alltäglichen Integrationspraktiken in den Blick zu nehmen und ihre Verlaufsmuster herauszuarbeiten. Anhand offen strukturierter Interviews mit verschiedenen betrieblichen Akteuren zeige ich, dass sich Integrationsprozesse in vier Phasen mit jeweils charakteristischen Ereignissen und Akteurskonstellationen unterteilen lassen. Deutlich wird, dass die betriebliche Praxis durch ein Wechselspiel zwischen formal-kodifizierten und informal-variablen Reaktionen auf Integrationsbedarfe geprägt ist und direkte Vorgesetzte Schlüsselakteure für eine gelingende Integration sind.
Towards time-evolving analytics: Online learning for time-dependent evolving data streams
Authors: Ziffer Giacomo , Bernardo Alessio , Della Valle Emanuele , Cerqueira Vitor , Bifet Albert
Published: December 2022

Traditional historical data analytics is at risk in a world where volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity are the new normal. While Streaming Machine Learning (SML) and Time-series Analytics (TSA) attack some aspects of the problem, we still need a comprehensive solution. SML trains models using fewer data and in a continuous/adaptive way relaxing the assumption that data points are identically distributed. TSA considers temporal dependence among data points, but it assumes identical distribution. Every Data Scientist fights this battle with ad-hoc solutions. In this paper, we claim that, due to the temporal dependence on the data, the existing solutions do not represent robust solutions to efficiently and automatically keep models relevant even when changes occur, and real-time processing is a must. We propose a novel and solid scientific foundation for Time-Evolving Analytics from this perspective. Such a framework aims to develop the logical, methodological, and algorithmic foundations for fast, scalable, and resilient analytics.

Authors: Gong Hong-Jian , Tang Xingyao , Chai Yin-He , Qiao Yu-Shun , Xu Hui , Patel Ikramulhaq , Zhang Jin-Yan , Simó Rafael , Zhou Jian-Bo
Published: December 2022

Background: Obesity has been linked to cognitive impairment. However, how changes in body mass index (BMI) over the life course influence cognitive function remains unclear. Objective: The influence of distinct weight-change patterns from young adulthood to midlife and late adulthood on cognitive function in older adults was explored. Methods: A total of 5,809 individuals aged≥60 years were included and categorized into four groups on the basis of BMI change patterns. Cognitive function was assessed using four cognition tests in the baseline survey. The relationship between the weight-change patterns and cognition was evaluated using regression models. Results: In comparison with participants who remained at non-obese, those moving from the non-obese to obese weight-change pattern from young (25 years of age) to middle adulthood showed lower Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST) scores (β= –1.28; 95% confidence interval [CI]: –2.24 to –0.32). A non-obese to obese change pattern from age 25 years of age to 10 years before baseline was associated with a higher risk of DSST impairment (odds ratio = 1.40; 95% CI: 1.09 to 1.79). In comparison with participants whose heaviest weight was recorded after 60 years of age, those with the heaviest weight between 18 and 40 years of age had lower DSST scores (β= –1.46; 95% CI: –2.77 to –1.52). Conclusion: Our results suggest that the transition from the non-obese to obese category in early adulthood and appearance of the heaviest weight between 18 and 40 years of age are associated with lower cognitive function in later life.

Published: December 2022

Background: The kynurenine pathway (KP) comprises a family of tryptophan-derived metabolites that some studies have reported are associated with poorer cognitive performance and an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD). Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the associations of plasma KP metabolites (kynurenine [KYN], kynurenic acid [KA], and tryptophan [TRP]) with a panel of plasma ADRD biomarkers (Aβ42/ β40 ratio, pTau-181, glial fibrillary acidic protein [GFAP], and neurofilament light [NfL]) and cognitive performance in a subset of older adults drawn from the Duke Physical Performance Across the LifeSpan (PALS) study. Methods: The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) was used to assess cognitive performance. We used multivariate multiple regression to evaluate associations of the KYN/TRP and KA/KYN ratios with MoCA score and plasma ADRD biomarkers at baseline and over two years (n = 301; Age = 74.8±8.7). Results: Over two years, an increasing KYN/TRP ratio was associated with increasing plasma concentrations of plasma p-Tau181 (β= 6.151; 95% CI [0.29, 12.01]; p = 0.040), GFAP (β= 11.12; 95% CI [1.73, 20.51]; p = 0.020), and NfL (β= 11.13; 95% CI [2.745, 19.52]; p = 0.009), but not MoCA score or the Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio. There were no significant associations of KA/KYN with MoCA score or plasma ADRD biomarkers. Conclusion: Our findings provide evidence that greater concentrations of KP metabolites are associated longitudinally over two years with greater biomarker evidence of neurofibrillary tau pathology (pTau-181), neuroinflammation (GFAP), and neurodegeneration (NfL), suggesting that dysregulated KP metabolism may play a role in ADRD pathogenesis.
Signatures in mediumnic automatic writing - a pilot exploration of the resemblance with the deceased's handwriting
Authors: Saad Marcelo , de Medeiros Roberta
Published: December 2022

In some texts from automatic writing (psychography), the produced signature sometimes resembles the one the deceased produced in life. This pilot research aims to explore the resemblance between signatures in automatic writing and the deceased's handwriting. The researcher followed two séances of a reputed Spiritist medium with many years of experience with psychography. The procedures were all filmed, and the medium during the trance wrote with speed clearly above the conventional one. Proxies willing to participate in the study allowed the produced signature to be photographed right there. Further, the proxy sent the researcher an image file illustrating a document with a representative signature of the deceased. For the four pairs obtained, the signatures produced by psychography were surprisingly similar to those that the deceased produced in life. However, the scarcity of material and its insufficient quality prevent more robust conclusions. There seems to be no mundane explanation based on fraud that would stand up to closer scrutiny. Future research should describe this phenomenon in more detail and possibly venture to explain it.
