Background/Aims: Patients of ulcerative colitis (UC) on follow-up are routinely evaluated by sigmoidoscopy. There is no prospective literature to support this practice. We assessed agreement between sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy prospectively in patients with disease extent beyond the sigmoid colon. Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study at a tertiary care institute for agreement between sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy. We assessed endoscopic activity using the Mayo Endoscopic Score (MES) and Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic Index of Severity (UCEIS) and histological activity using the Nancy Index (NI), Robarts Histopathology Index (RHI), and Simplified Geboes Score (SGS). Results: Sigmoidoscopy showed a strong agreement with colonoscopy for MES and UCEIS with a kappa (κ) of 0.96 and 0.94 respectively. The misclassification rate for MES and UCEIS was 3% and 5% respectively. Sigmoidoscopy showed perfect agreement (κ = 1.00) with colonoscopy for assessment of the presence of endoscopic activity in the colon using MES ≥ 1 as activity criteria and strong agreement (κ = 0.93) using MES > 1 as activity criteria. Sigmoidoscopy showed strong agreement with colonoscopy for assessment of the presence of endoscopic activity using UCEIS (κ = 0.92). Strong agreement was observed between sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy using NI (κ = 0.86), RHI (κ = 1.00), and SGS (κ = 0.92) for the detection of histological activity. The misclassification rate for the detection of histological activity was 2%, 0%, and 1% for NI, RHI, and SGS respectively. Conclusions: Sigmoidoscopy showed strong agreement with colonoscopy for endoscopic and histologic disease activity. Sigmoidoscopy is adequate for assessment of disease activity in patients with UC during follow-up evaluation.

Tâm thức lưu đày của thanh niên trong truyện ngắn ở đô thị miền Nam giai đoạn 1954-1975 qua khảo sát trên tạp chí Bách Khoa
Authors: Bùi Ngọc Anh Thư
Published: May 2024

Exile (tạm dịch: tâm thức lưu đày) là một trong những nội dung quan trọng của thuyết hậu thuộc địa, thường bắt gặp ở những đối tượng có sự chia cắt với quê hương thật sự hoặc nguồn gốc văn hóa và dân tộc. Đây vẫn là một lý thuyết khá mới mẻ với giới nghiên cứu trong nước. Qua khảo sát, chúng tôi nhận thấy, nhiều truyện ngắn trên tạp chí Bách Khoa đã bước đầu xây dựng các nhân vật mang tâm thức lưu đày khá rõ rệt. Bằng các phương pháp phân tích, chứng minh, lịch sử-xã hội, nghiên cứu liên ngành, bài viết sẽ chỉ ra một số biểu hiện cụ thể của tâm thức lưu đày ở đối tượng thanh niên qua các trạng thái cô đơn, lạ lẫm, xa cách với quê hương và bị “bật gốc” khỏi cội nguồn dân tộc. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy các trạng thái tâm lý phức tạp ở đối tượng thanh niên, khi họ không chỉ là những người trực tiếp chịu nhiều tác động dội của chủ nghĩa thực dân mà còn đóng vai trò là người nắm giữ trong tay vận mệnh đất nước. Qua đó, có thể hình dung được sức ép to lớn của chủ nghĩa thực dân đối với những người trẻ ở miền Nam Việt Nam trong suốt hơn hai mươi năm bị xâm lược.

APPLIED ASPECTS OF CRITERIA FOR DIVISION INTO NARCOTIC DRUGS,
PSYCHOTROPIC SUBSTANCES, THEIR PRECURSORS, ANALOGUES
Authors: KHAREVICH D.
Published: May 2024

Based on a comparison of the properties of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, their precursors and analogues, the author comes to the conclusion that such a division of psychoactive substances does not meet the formal criteria of logic, and the listed concepts cannot be presented as separate categories. Taking into account the unified system of criteria for classifying narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, their precursors and analogues, the above concepts from the content side represent a single whole. It is proposed to use a single term “drugs” in regulatory legal acts, covering the entire range of psychoactive substances subject to control.

Real Estate Insights on Mortgage Rates, Apartment Prices, and Rentals in Czech Republic
Authors: Hromada Eduard
Published: May 2024

This study examines the complex dynamics of the Czech real estate market, focusing on the interaction between mortgage rates and residential property prices, the influence of dwelling size on market price trends, and the impact of regional economic disparities on property values. We find that lower mortgage rates paradoxically raise house prices through increased demand, calling into question the effectiveness of monetary policy in improving housing affordability. This counter-intuitive effect highlights the complex interplay between fiscal policy and market responses. In addition, the analysis reveals a significant shift towards smaller dwellings, increasingly favoured by single-person households, reflecting changing demographic trends. This shift has clear implications for price dynamics and market accessibility in both the sales and rental sectors, suggesting a nuanced response to consumer preferences across different market segments. In addition, the research highlights a strong correlation between regional economic vitality and property prices, underlining the profound influence of the broader economic landscape in shaping property values in different areas. By integrating these critical aspects, the study provides a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of the factors influencing the Czech property market, offering valuable insights for policy makers, property developers and investors seeking to navigate or influence this market effectively.

Published: May 2024

臨床稽核是在結構、過程與成果面進行系統性的檢視，達到以病人為中心之醫療照護的目標，能夠幫助醫療機構減少「想像中的工作」和「實際執行的工作」之間差距的方法，強化同仁平日的病人安全意識，減少醫療作業的不穩定性，符合最佳實證流程，並且提升醫院內部自我查核與持續改善的動力。臨床稽核的執行，需要成立臨床稽核團隊並培訓稽核員，根據醫療照護準則制定評核標準並建置稽核相關表單，訂定稽核主題與時程安排，實際稽核的執行，並對稽核結果的檢討改善與追蹤，才能確保臨床實務遵從標準流程，落實評鑑以病人為中心的精神。

 

Clinical audits systematically review structures, processes, and outcomes to achieve patient- centered health care. They help health-care institutions bridge the gap between "work as imagined" and "work as done," reinforcing staff’s awareness of patient safety, reducing operational instability, adhering to best evidence-based practices, and enhancing the hospital’s internal self-assessment and continuous improvement efforts. Implementing clinical audits involves establishing a clinical audit team, training auditors, developing assessment criteria based on health-care standards, creating audit-related forms, setting audit themes and schedules, conducting audits, reviewing results for improvement opportunities, and tracking progress. These steps ensure that clinical practice follows standard processes and implements the patient-centered health care emphasized in medical center accreditation.

Sergius (Stragorodsky), Archbishop of Finland and Vyborg — features of pastoral service in political and sociocultural contexts
Authors: Shevchenko Т. I.
Published: May 2024

The article is devoted to the analysis of the “Finnish period” of the pastoral service of Sergius (Stragorodsky), future Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia. The period covers the years 1905–1917, during which there was an exacerbation of Russian-Finnish relations. In Finnish historiography, these years are referred to as another period of russification (1908–1917), while in Russian historiography, they are marked by attempts to Finnize and Lutheranize Russian Karelia. Formed in 1892 as the vicariate of the St. Petersburg diocese, the Vyborgand Finnish diocese of the Orthodox Russian Church united the parishes of the Grand Duchy of Finland, to which the Vyborg province (Old Finland) belonged, annexed to the Grand Duchy by Alexander I in 1811. In 1913, the Serdobolsk vicariate was established in the diocese for Karelian parishes. Archbishop Sergius was tasked with countering “pan-Finnish propaganda” in Karelia and defending the interests of the Russian Church in the Grand Duchy, the vast majority of whose population adhered to   Lutheranism. The Karelians inhabited the eastern part of the Grand Duchy of Finland, Olonets and Belomorsk Karelia. Through joint efforts of church and provincial authorities in these regions, the process of Lutheranization of Karelians directed by Finnish nationalists was stopped. However, Archbishop Sergius policy in the Grand Duchy caused rejection from local elites and church figures. Relations with Russian politicians were also complicated for the Archbishop of Finland. This was largely due to the exacerbation of Finnish and Karelian issues. The article analyzes the political and socio-cultural contexts of the pastoral service of Archbishop Sergius, emphasizes important facts of his biography that help understand the logic of his decisions, presents preliminary conclusions based on a review of the modern historiography of the issue, which has not received sufficient attention from Russian researchers to date.
His Holiness Patriarch Sergius, Metropolitan Gregory and the Theological Schools of the Moscow Patriarchy from 1944 to 2024
Authors: Aleksandrova-Chukova L. K.
Published: May 2024

The article commemorates two significant events marking the 80th anniversary of the Russian Orthodox Church in 2024: the passing of His Holiness Patriarch Sergius and the establishment of the first theological schools in Moscow during the Soviet era. The question of establishing theological schools was raised by Patriarch Sergius following the Council of Bishops in 1943 and his subsequent election as patriarch. These schools were inaugurated just a month after his passing. It’s emphasized that the swift preparation for the opening of the Theological Institute and Theological and Pastoral courses was facilitated by the quarter-century journey of the patriarch’s long-time faithful colleague, Archpriest Nikolay Chukov (Archbishop Gregory of Saratov and Stalingrad), who authored the project for spiritual educational institutions of the Moscow Patriarchate. He had substantial experience in establishing and overseeing higher theological institutions in Petrograd-Leningrad from 1920 to 1925. For the first time, a diary detailing the activities of Archpriest Nikolay Chukov is published in the appendix. His endeavors, undertaken with the support of Metropolitan Sergius  and the Synod from 1928 to 1930, aimed to establish a Theological Institute in Leningrad. Unfortunately, his plans were thwarted by his arrest in 1930. The entries in the published diary confirm Olga Vasilyeva’s assertion that Metropolitan Sergius’ interview, which sparked widespread protests due to its denial of Church persecution in the USSR, was a quid pro quo for allowing him to submit a memo to Pyotr Smidovich. One of the memo’s points emphasized the necessity of opening a theological school. This memo played a pivotal role in obtaining permission, which, in turn, significantly hastened the process of opening theological schools in Moscow in 1943–1944. The article concludes with excerpts from books and articles by a professor from the Department of Church History at Saint Petersburg Theological Academy. This academic offers a negative and ironic assessment of both the ascetic work of Metropolitan Gregory of Leningrad and Novgorod, and the martyrdom of Patriarch Sergius, who endured humiliation primarily to preserve a legalized church organization, which was essential for the establishment of theological schools within the Patriarchate. This aspect became particularly significant when considering the pivotal choice by the authorities between the patriarchal Church and the Renovationists in 1943.
Metropolitan Sergius and the “Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate” in 1931–1935
Authors: Kashevarov A. N.
Published: May 2024

After the end of the civil war, the Moscow Patriarchate could only publish annual calendars, which were published until 1925. This was the only and very limited opportunity for the highest church authorities to publish some of their decrees and orders. Therefore, Metropolitan of Nizhny Novgorod Sergius (Stragorodsky), who assumed the duties of Deputy Patriarchal Locum Tenens on December 14, 1925, regarded the publication of the official periodical of the Patriarchate as one of the top priorities in organizing church life. One of Metropolitan Sergei’s main achievements during this time was obtaining permission from the authorities to publish the “Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate”, which was published from 1931 to 1935. It was small in volume — from 8 to 14 pages including calendar materials and was published in a small edition — only three thousand copies. In reality, the journal was published once every 2–4 months. Metropolitan Sergius himself acted as the publisher. A large part of the materials published in the “Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate” in the 1930s are related to the activities of the Deputy Patriarchal Locum Tenens and the Temporary Patriarchal Holy Synod under his guidance. An important place in the journal was rightfully occupied by the sermons, letters, and resolutions of Metropolitan Sergius on various issues of church life. The materials published in the journal allow us to identify and study the main directions of the activitie and mechanisms of functioning of the highest church authority in the late 1920s to the first half of the 1930s. The analysis of these materials convincingly shows that, firstly, Metropolitan Sergei, who presented important issues of church life for consideration by the Supreme Church Administration, led the work of the Temporary Patriarchal Synod. Secondly, despite all the pressures, church life continued. The Patriarchate, represented by the Deputy Patriarchal Locum Tenens Metropolitan Sergius and members of the Temporary Patriarchal Holy Synod, remained the only legalized body of church administration, doing everything possible in those incredibly difficult conditions to maintain some order and discipline in the Church on canonical grounds and prevent it from falling apart.
Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus’ Sergius and the Soviet State
Authors: Tsypin V. A.
Published: May 2024

At the end of 1925, Metropolitan Sergius of Nizhny Novgorod assumed the position of Deputy Patriarchal Locum Tenens. He undertook the task of formulating the Church’s position in relation to state authorities. Its authentic expression was the draft “Appeal”. which was rejected by the government, leading to the arrest of its author. After his release, Metropolitan Sergius, together with the Synod, issued a Message referred to as a “Declaration” in journalism. It emphasized the loyalty of the clergy and the Orthodox people to the Soviet government. Some clergymen criticized the Declaration, but a significant majority of the episcopate, clergy, and church people reacted with understanding to its publication. At the end of 1936, Metropolitan Sergius assumed the position of Locum Tenens following a false report of the death of Locum Tenens Peter. In fact, the holy Martyr Peter was still alive at that time, but in October 1937, he was shot. 1937 marked the peak of the terror. A new blow struck the Orthodox Church. On September 1, 1939, the Second World War began. As a result of the expansion of the borders of the Soviet state to the west, the Moscow Patriarchate effectively gained control over the dioceses of the Baltic States, Western Belarus, Western Ukraine, and Moldova. In the new territories, churches were closed only in exceptional cases. On June 22, 1941, Germany attacked the USSR. On the first day of the war, the Locum Tenens composed a Message in which he blessed the Orthodox people for the defense of the Fatherland. From October 1941 to August 1943, the Patriarchate was located in Ulyanovsk. After its return to Moscow, Stalin and Molotov met with Metropolitans Sergius, Alexy, and Nikolai in the Kremlin. At the meeting, permission was given to convene the Council of Bishops, the most important act of which was the election of Sergius as Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus’. Patriarch Sergius died on May 15, 1944.
El estado del financiamiento para los derechos de tenencia y la custodia forestal: Financiamiento de donantes para los Pueblos Indígenas, comunidades locales y Pueblos Afrodescendientes en países boscosos forestales (2011–2023)
Authors:   Rights and Resources Initiative,   Rainforest Foundation Norway
Published: May 2024

El 10 de abril de 2024, Iniciativa para los Derechos y Recursos (RRI) y Rainforest Foundation Norway (RFN) lanzaron el panel Path to Scale, una nueva herramienta en línea de código abierto que facilita el acceso a los datos de financiación de donantes para los derechos de los Pueblos Indígenas, los Pueblos Afrodescendientes y las comunidades locales y la custodia de los bosques. Este nuevo informe analiza los datos del panel y las principales tendencias de financiación desde 2020. En él se constata que, si bien la financiación de los donantes entre 2020 y 2023 aumentó un 36 % con respecto a los cuatro años anteriores, con una media de 517 millones de dólares estadounidenses al año, todavía no se ha producido ningún cambio sistemático en la financiación directa de los donantes a las organizaciones de titulares de derechos. Al poner estos datos a disposición por primera vez, el panel y el informe ayudarán a los donantes, las organizaciones no gubernamentales y los titulares de derechos a identificar brechas y oportunidades de financiación críticas en los esfuerzos mundiales para garantizar los derechos de las comunidades y combatir la doble crisis climática y de biodiversidad.

A ovinocultura é uma importante fonte de renda para produtores, na qual o controle dos parasitas gastrointestinais é um desafio na produção. Desta forma, novas tecnologias estão sendo estudadas de forma a contribuir com o controle dessas parasitoses e dentre elas está a ozonioterapia. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar o uso do óleo de girassol ozonizado no controle das verminoses em ovinos. Foram utilizados 48 ovinos, dividos em 4 grupos de tratamento: grupo 1 – controle, grupo 2 – 3 ml de óleo de girassol ozonizado via oral, grupo 3- 6 ml de óleo de girassol ozonizado via oral e grupo 4 – vermífugo (Levamisol injetável). Foi realizado o número de ovos por grama de fezes do animal nos dias D0, D14, D28 e D42 e o tratamento realizado nos dias D0 e D28. Foi possível constatar que os animais que receberam óleo de girassol ozonizado tiveram redução da carga parasitária, com um resultado mais expressivo nos animais do grupo 3, que receberam 6 ml do óleo, concluindo que a ozonioterapia se mostrou eficaz. A ozonioterapia se mostrou viável com facilidade de aplicação, com grande potencial de ser empregada na produção animal com perspectivas encorajadoras para se tornar a principal forma de eliminação de ovos de helmintos. Estudos futuros são necessários para complementar os resultados apresentados e determinar as doses e número de aplicações necessárias para a ação antiparasitária do óleo de girassol ozonizado, bem como análise molecular a fim de acompanhar a possibilidade de resistência à terapia.
La valorizzazione del testo poetico nel secondo Novecento. Un modello e qualche esperimento
Authors: Ghidinelli Stefano
Published: May 2024

L’articolo si propone di indagare la specificità delle dinamiche e dei circuiti della valorizzazione poetica nel secondo Novecento, assumendo che la condizione di ‘marginalità resistente’ del genere poesia nelle società contemporanee è pragmaticamente correlata ai peculiari rapporti che vi si instaurano fra comunità poetica e comunità letteraria. In questo quadro, i circuiti dell’editoria di poesia possono essere osservati come un complesso dispositivo di valorizzazione selettiva di opere e autori: nella verifica critica dei suoi modi di funzionamento, gli strumenti del distant reading possono offrire una risorsa preziosa, non alternativa ma complementare allo studio ravvicinato di singoli autori riviste collane. Il saggio mette alla prova le potenzialità di questa prospettiva attraverso alcuni primi esperimenti o sondaggi parziali: in particolare propone un confronto fra le scelte di catalogo delle tre maggiori collane di poesia italiana contemporanea (Lo specchio di Mondadori, la Verde Garzanti, la Bianca Einaudi) e le selezioni variamente “canoniche” di un campione di influenti antologie.
Macrotexit strategy: gli anti-Canzonieri ecfrastici

A partire dalla tendenza a costruire i macrotesti come delle Galerie ecfrastiche, riscontrabile nella poesia sperimentale degli anni Sessanta, il presente saggio si interroga su una possibile permanenza di questa opzione anti-petrarchesca nella poesia degli anni Duemila. Dopo una campionatura di alcune Galerie contemporanee, da Frixione a Raveggi, si cercheranno di isolare le differenze – editoriali, storiche e formali – che caratterizzano la persistenza fossile di questa macrostruttura.

Data on twenty six high resin yielders and ten check trees of Pinus roxburghii were recorded for thirteen characters namely oleoresin yield, height, diameter, grain angle, specific gravity of wood, bark percentage of wood, tracheid length, needle length, needle thickness, diameter of resin ducts, number of resin ducts, lignin percentage of wood and holocellulose percentage of wood. The simple correlation coefficient between different pairs of characters was also computed. Path analysis of simple correlation revealed that number of resin ducts, diameter of resin ducts, needle length, bark percentage of wood, height and diameter contributed directly to the oleoresin yield, thereby indicating their direct involvement and relative importance for increase in the ultimate oleoresin yield.

Published: May 2024

This article is a literature review of the explanations and theories of the Easterlin paradox. The Easterlin paradox had been well researched in multiple interpretation paths, focusing on either the micro or macro level of the paradox. However, it has not been able to provide a perfect explanation for the paradox so that policies can be formulated and implemented. To facilitate future research, the past and latest research on theories of the Easterlin paradox will be organized and criticized. It will be shown that theories of direct and indirect mental mechanisms had their main problem with single factor analysis, while theories of external social mechanisms lacked dynamic analysis. This synthesis of current research will be helpful for further research on the real causes and solutions of the Easterlin paradox.
Gender Discrimination in Real Hiring Process
Authors: Wang Zinong
Published: May 2024

This study investigates the prevalence of gender discrimination in the recruitment process in the real world. The main objective of this study is to determine the existence and extent of gender bias against females in the recruitment process, especially when compared to males. Through a field experiment, this study analyzed the application results collected from 100 fictitious male and female employee resumes submitted to 50 real estate companies in Shanghai. The presence and degree of gender discrimination were determined by comparing the application results of different resumes. Particular attention was paid to the feedback received by virtual women who indicated family intentions in their resumes. Through rigorous analysis, it was determined that female employees, especially those who indicated family plans, received significantly fewer responses than male applicants, regardless of whether the male applicants indicated family plans. Based on these findings, it is clear that gender disparities are evident during the hiring process in basic-level positions such as those in the real estate industry. These results highlight the need to ensure equal opportunities and equity for female employees in the recruitment process.
On the Enlightenment Movement: The Impact on Western Society and the Social Problems Brought by the Lack of Chinese Enlightenment
Authors: Chen Shuyue
Published: May 2024

In his article "What is Enlightenment", Foucault once said, "By explaining it this way, people can discover a starting point for analysis, which is to describe people's so-called attitudes towards modernity.". The Enlightenment legitimized human rights, and with the Enlightenment as the boundary, humanity entered a stage of modernity. Modern human rights ideology was initially established, and Western social life underwent earth-shaking changes. It also impacted China as far away as the East, as the ideas of the Enlightenment formed the cornerstone of modern society and established the embryonic form of modern society. Although China has been affected by this, due to the lack of philosophical education, people only have a vague understanding of concepts such as human rights, democracy, freedom, and so on, without a profound understanding, which has led to some social problems in China being particularly prominent compared to the West. This article explores the issue of legalization in the Enlightenment by analyzing the ideological context before and after the Enlightenment, focusing specifically on human rights. It also attempts to categorize the concept of power during the Enlightenment period and explore several types of power in human society, discussing the impact of the Enlightenment from the above points. Afterward, this article attempts to analyze the impact of the Enlightenment on Western society, using the presence or absence of the Enlightenment as a variable. As a comparison, it analyzes some social problems in China caused by the lack of popularization of knowledge and philosophical education related to the Enlightenment.

Authors: Alawad Emad A. , Ahmed Elhafiz M.
Published: May 2024

This study explores and enhances the comprehension and use of elliptical constructions in academic writing among EFL students at the Modern College of Business and Science (MCBS). Elliptical constructions, linguistic phenomena where certain words or phrases are intentionally omitted to avoid redundancy, present unique challenges in academic writing contexts. The study, involving 50 students and six teachers from three institutions, employs a Quantitative Content Analysis method and a questionnaire based on the Likert scale and open-ended questions. The research aims to enhance students’ comprehension and use of elliptical constructions, with two specific objectives: to assess the level of awareness among students regarding the use of elliptical constructions in their written work, and to formulate strategies to improve students’ comprehension and application of elliptical constructions in academic writing. The findings reveal varying degrees of awareness and usage among students, with those scoring higher demonstrating noticeable competency. However, teachers’ opinions on effective strategies diverged, indicating a need for more focused strategies. The study suggests that effective teaching strategies should consider the diverse methods employed by teachers and emphasize real-world applications, interactive learning, and personalized feedback. This approach is anticipated to enhance students’ understanding and use of elliptical constructions in their academic writing.
