Moving beyond referrals to strengthen late-life depression care: a qualitative examination of primary care clinic and community-based organization partnerships
Authors: Wagner Jenny L , Henderson Stuart , Hoeft Theresa , Gosdin Melissa , Hinton Ladson
Published: March 2022

BackgroundNational guidelines have called for greater integration of primary care and behavioral health services, with more recent attention to social care and community-based services. Under growing resource constraints healthcare organizations have tended to rely on referrals to external entities to address social care needs. Traditional referral models, however, may not be equipped to provide for the complex needs of older adults with depression. The Care Partners Project was designed to strengthen late-life depression care through integrated partnerships between primary care clinics and community-based organizations. We sought to understand how these integrated partnerships, with shared tasks and accountability across organizations, changed the nature of depression care for older adults. MethodsWe conducted 65 in-depth, semi-structured interviews and six focus groups with service providers involved in the project, including care managers, primary care providers, and psychiatric consultants, and applied inductive and deductive qualitative thematic analysis to develop themes around participants’ experiences with the partnered initiative. ResultsWe found the partnerships established by the Care Partners Project reshaped late-life depression care in two ways: (1) bidirectional communication across organizations facilitated greater recognition among providers of intersecting medical and social needs associated with late-life depression; and (2) depression care became more coordinated and effective as care teams established or strengthened relationships across organizations. ConclusionsThese findings highlight the ways cross-organizational health and social care partnerships that move beyond traditional referrals can strengthen late-life depression care and enhance organizational capacities.
Tarping Cover Crops Facilitates Organic No-till Cabbage Production and Suppresses Weeds
Authors: Lounsbury Natalie P. , Lounsbury Bonnie B. , Warren Nicholas D. , Smith Richard G.
Published: March 2022

Small-scale vegetable farmers are interested in cover crops and reduced tillage, but scale-appropriate technology and equipment are necessary to expand these practices to the growing segment of small farms. We sought to determine the efficacy of tarps, an increasingly popular tool on small farms, to end overwintering cover crops and provide weed suppression for subsequent no-till cabbage production. In three fields over two seasons in Maine, we grew a winter rye (Secale cereale L.) and hairy vetch (Vicia villosa L.) cover crop, which we managed by a factorial combination of tillage (no-till, till) and tarping (tarp, no-tarp) in June, followed by a transplanted cabbage crop (Brassica oleracea L. var. Capitata) in July. Within each treatment, subplots were either weeded by hand or left unweeded. Cover crop biomass ranged from 2.8 to 4.5 Mg⋅ha−1. Mean cabbage weights in the novel no-till system (no-till/tarp) were greater than (year 1) or equal to (year 2) those in tillage-based systems (till/no-tarp and till/tarp). In year 1, the mean cabbage weight in weeded subplots was 48% greater in no-till/tarp than in till/no-tarp systems. In unweeded subplots, this difference was 270%, highlighting the efficacy of the no-till/tarp system to reduce the impact of weeds. In year 2, weed biomass was higher with all treatments than it was in year 1, and unweeded subplots failed to produce marketable heads (i.e., >300 g). The mean cabbage weight in weeded subplots was equal among no-till/tarp, till/tarp, and till/no-tarp systems. Tarping had a strong effect on weed biomass and weed community composition measured at the time of cabbage harvest in unweeded subplots. In year 1, weed biomass at the time of cabbage harvest with tarp treatments was less than half that with no-tarp treatments. Tarps effectively facilitated the cover crop mulch-based no-till system. We propose that this system is an adaptive strategy for farmers affected by climate change. However, both cover crop production and tarping shorten the growing season. We discuss tradeoffs and opportunity costs using the metric of growing degree days.
Finchite, Sr(UO2)2(V2O8)·5H2O, a new uranyl sorovanadate with the francevillite anion topology

Published: March 2022

Finchite (IMA2017-052), Sr(UO2)2(V2O8)·5H2O, is the first uranium mineral known to contain essential Sr. The new mineral occurs as yellow-green blades up to ~10 µm in length in surface outcrops of the calcrete-type uranium deposit at Sulfur Springs Draw, Martin County, Texas, U.S.A. Crystals of finchite were subsequently discovered underground in the Pandora mine, La Sal, San Juan County, Utah, U.S.A., as diamond-shaped golden-yellow crystals reaching up to 1 mm. The crystal structure of finchite from both localities was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and is orthorhombic, Pcan, with a = 10.363(6) Å, b = 8.498(5) Å, c = 16.250(9) Å, V = 1431.0(13) Å3, Z = 4 (R1 = 0.0555) from Sulfur Springs Draw; and a = 10.3898(16), b = 8.5326(14), c = 16.3765(3) Å, V = 1451.8(4) Å3, Z = 4 (R1 = 0.0600) from the Pandora mine. Electron-probe microanalysis provided the empirical formula (Sr0.88K0.17Ca0.10Mg0.07Al0.03Fe0.02)Σ1.20(UO2)2(V2.08O8)·5H2O for crystals from Sulfur Springs Draw, and (Sr0.50Ca0.28Ba0.22K0.05)Σ0.94(U0.99O2)2(V2.01O8)·5H2O for crystals from the Pandora mine, based on 17 O atoms per formula unit. The structure of finchite contains uranyl vanadate sheets based upon the francevillite topology. Finchite is a possible immobilization species for both uranium and the dangerous radionuclide 90Sr because of the relative insolubility of uranyl vanadate minerals in water.

Este artigo aborda a relação entre as ideologias partidárias e a aplicação do fundo público em políticas sociais. Busca auxiliar na compreensão dos processos de aplicação do fundo público disponível aos municípios a partir das políticas de descentralização do Estado. Analisa possíveis correlações entre as opções políticas dos chefes de executivos municipais, a destinação de recursos do orçamento público para as políticas sociais e indicadores de desenvolvimento dos municípios. Tem como referência a abordagem dialética, trabalhando com dados secundários obtidos junto à Secretaria do Tesouro Nacional, Tribunal Superior Eleitoral e Fundação de Economia e Estatística do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul.  Trabalha com os 77 municípios da Região Funcional 7, dos Conselhos Regionais de Desenvolvimento (COREDES/RS), no período de 2005 a 2016. Constata-se que há predominância dos partidos de direita nas gestões municipais; os partidos de esquerda ampliaram sua presença; os partidos de centro são os que menos aplicam em políticas sociais; a variável opção partidária dos detentores de mandato executivo se faz mais intensa nas áreas em que há maior liberdade na aplicação dos recursos, ou que sejam mais dependentes de articulação com outras esferas da federação para a obtenção de recursos, como os casos da habitação, urbanismo, saneamento básico e cultura; existem correlações evidentes entre a ampliação dos valores aplicados em políticas sociais e a melhoria dos indicadores de desenvolvimento, constatadas de forma positiva forte para 56 municípios; positiva moderada em 12; positiva fraca em 3; negativa fraca em 4; e negativa moderada em 2 municípios.

Published: March 2022

Os modelos específicos do setor agrícola não são capazes de representar a não linearidade e a natureza dependente do tempo das relações que sustentam o sistema agroalimentar. Por isso, neste artigo, propor-se-á o desenvolvimento de uma análise bibliométrica com base na análise de reconhecimento de padrões, através das publicações nos periódicos de revisão por pares com foco em Community-supported agriculture (CSA). Assim, usando um conjunto de dados da Web of Science, aplicamos métricas semânticas de citação/cocitação para analisar as publicações de 1997 a 2019. As publicações foram identificadas aplicando um filtro de palavras-chave específicas à pesquisa. Em seguida, comparamos as abordagens que aparecem na literatura, o número de publicações e citações por periódicos científicos; identificamos os principais autores e periódicos, sua frequência, o fator de impacto e as citações; e, por fim, observamos a tendência ao longo do tempo. Com o auxílio do software VOSviewer, a análise revelou três grandes temas - motivações, processo, contexto - com altas potencialidades e perspectivas futuras de investigação. Os resultados gerados, a partir dos trabalhos recentes e de maior prestígio, apontam para uma tendência crescente de estudos, nesta área, com as redes de proximidade, de cooperação, de sistemas alternativos e de desenvolvimento sustentável.
La Cartera Crediticia de los Agricultores Colombianos: Un caso de estudio para una entidad financiera del sector real
Authors: Moreno López Santiago , Oliveira Nadja Simone Menezes Nery de , Ferrera de Lima Jandir
Published: March 2022

El presente trabajo pretende realizar un diagnóstico sobre la problemática del acceso a la financiación y a través de un caso de estudio demostrar que los agricultores colombianos tienen un buen hábito de pago en sus obligaciones financieras. Con este fin, y con base en una muestra con un total de 43.295 desembolsos entre los años 2018-2019 se identificarán las zonas geográficas del país más riesgosas de acuerdo con el incumplimiento de los clientes en sus obligaciones financieras, y se analizó la actividad principal de los departamentos colombianos para tratar de validar la correlación con la voluntad de pago de los agricultores. Los resultados mostraron que, con relación al tiempo de ocupación, los perfiles menos atractivos para incentivar el acceso al crédito son los prestadores de servicio o contratistas y los agricultores dadas las tasas de impago, 20% y 18% respectivamente. Con relación al ranking de impago por departamentos se destaca que aquellos donde la ganadería ocupa un lugar representativo en su actividad económica presentan las tasas más altas de impago respecto a departamentos donde predomina la agricultura.

Published: March 2022

Este artigo aborda o tema do desenvolvimento no que se refere à urgência de suplantar o conceito como sinônimo de crescimento, para superar os agravamentos dos problemas advindos dessa concepção. O objetivo foi verificar se os investimentos em políticas sociais provocaram mudanças no bem-estar social dos municípios mineiros entre 2000 e 2010. Através do software SPSS e com base nos dados obtidos pelo Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) e no Atlas do Desenvolvimento Humano, foram realizadas análises para os 853 municípios do Estado de Minas Gerais, através do Índice de Bem-Estar Social (IBES), composto por sub índices (saúde e saneamento, educação, e aspectos econômicos). O referencial teórico baseou-se nas discussões sobre desenvolvimento social e sustentável (VEIGA, 2001; SACHS, 2004, 2008), políticas públicas sociais (SERAFIM; DIAS, 2012; CASTRO; OLIVEIRA, 2014; DOWBOR, 2018) e IDH (GUIMARÃES; FEICHAS, 2009). A metodologia dividiu-se em duas etapas. Os resultados demonstram que os gastos em saúde e saneamento, habitação e previdência social foram os que tiveram maior impacto sobre o IBES, demonstrando que investimentos governamentais geram mudanças significativas para a população.Os resultados encontrados reforçam as discussões acerca do papel do desenvolvimento, que deve corresponder à expansão das potencialidades humanas e não apenas de bens de consumo (VEIGA, 2001) e deve ser visto como um processo que reduz as distâncias sociais que separam as diferentes camadas da população (SACHS, 2004).

Describing the verse of Russian émigré poets: Poetry by Nikolay A. Shegolev and its metrical system
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Laletina Olga S. , Zhang Iwei ,   St. Petersburg State University
Published: March 2022

The article analyses Russian émigré poetry: it describes the lyric poetry of Russian emigrants in the Far East, its connection to the poetry of the metropolis and the western branch of Russian emigration. The work is focused on one of the least studied issues in the history of Russian émigré poetry, i. e., the specific development of its verse. Lyric poetry by Nikolay A. Shegolev (1910–1975), a poet of the so-called “Russian China”, offers extensive material in this respect. His poetry has been overlooked in terms of academic verse analysis to date; however, many scholars note that he was very much involved in experimental poetry. This article presents the results of a unique comprehensive analysis of Shegolev’s metrical system. The analyzed corpus includes all of Shegolev’s lyric texts available today, i. e., 110 works, 2470 verses. The authors’ analysis embraces the different literary contexts of Russian poetry: Silver age poetry, Soviet poetry, and the émigré poetry of the western branch. Statistical calculations demonstrate that Shegolev’s lyric poetry is distinct due to a vast variety of meters and verse patterns (i. e., combinations of metric and strophic forms). Evidence is provided to substantiate the assumption that in most poems the choice of a particular model is associated with motifs, theme, plot and style. It is concluded that the logic of Shegolev’s experimental verse was shaped by his individual pragmatic vision: in the setting of historic and cultural emigration, the poet was desperately pursuing ways to preserve the connection between pre-revolutionary and Soviet culture, and to naturally synthesize the heritage of classic Russian poetry with Russian poetry of the new era.
The effect of expository text structure on text-based interest: Problem-based exposition (the linguistic aspect)
Authors:   The Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia, Piotrovskaya Larisa A. , Trushchelev Pavel N. ,   The Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia
Published: March 2022

The article presents a linguistic approach to the study of the emotiogenicity of expository texts. The purpose of the work is to identify linguistic resources that contribute to readers’ interest in expository texts with problem-based exposition. Expository texts from Russian textbooks for secondary schools are used as material for the study. The problem-based exposition is a pattern of text structure organized as “problem and solution”. It consists of two parts: the first part (“problem statement”) describes a problematic situation associated with a lack of students’ knowledge; the second part (“solution”) presents a way to solve it. Since the problem situation is a part of educational communication, the problem-based exposition involves the contextualization of textual content. For this, expository questions and authorization tools are often used because they allow for expressing the problem situation and the mental activity of an addressee. The emotiogenicity of expository texts with problem-based exposition primarily depends on the degree of contextualization. The contextualization makes it possible to present the textual content as being personally significant for the reader, to arouse the reader’s desire to find out something new about an object of interest, and to engage them in the cognitive process. At the same time, the emotiogenic potential of the problem-based exposition depends on the content characteristics (constraints, engaging themes), as well as on the addressee’s factor, in particular their genre expectations.
The problem of multimodality as a synthesis of verbal and non-verbal means of influence (based on the material of media texts)

Published: March 2022

Due to the increased importance of the text format, the article considers the problem of multimodality which is acute at the turn of 20th–21st centuries: the specificity of the term and concept of “multimodality”, “multimedia”, and functions of multimodality in modern media texts. A characteristic feature of the modern media text is its multimodal character as an interaction of verbal and non-verbal means. The aim of the study is to identify various types of multimodal neoderivatives and determine their functional specificity. New aspects of media word creation are associated with the multimodal nature of contemporary media texts: monographing — the use of multifunctional elements of one language in graphic hybrids (hyphenation, parenthesis, quotation); capitalization — combination of uppercase and lowercase letters; polygraphing — combination of the elements of various alphabets; codegraphing — combination of different code systems (different fonts, numbers, ideograms, drawings, photos, colors, and emojis). The material of the study includes the texts of printed and electronic media from the beginning of the 21st century, as well as advertising texts. In the course of the study, the methods of structural and semantic analysis as well as content analysis were used. The multimodal media neoderivatives intensify the influential effects of media text. As a result of the research, the most representative types of graphic hybrids and emoji characters implementing expressive-game and manipulative tendencies of modern media, as well as performing structural text functions, are identified in the media texts.
Gender-fair language as an object of amateur language criticism in German media
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Slinina Liudmila Ia. , Nifontova Daria Ie. ,   St. Petersburg State University
Published: March 2022

The article deals with interpretation of gender problems in amateur criticism of the German language. The goal of the study is to define specific features of gender-fair language forms, to detect the arguments of the discussion members as well as their linguistic explanation, and to consider the means of assessment used in discussion about gender-fair language. The materials examined were taken from German online-media for the period 2017 to 2021. The main research method is multifaceted discourse analysis which considers the trans-textual situation, intra-textual features and positions of the actors. The study is based on the achievements of feministic and gender linguistics. Examining gender-fair lexical units demonstrates their heterogeneity in form (natural and man-made) and content (gender specific and gender neutral). The arguments of the discussion members deal with important language problems, such as the possibility of a conscious change of language forms, the influence of language changes on the non-linguistic reality, understanding of grammar categories (gender of nouns), communicative function of the language, and problems of practical usage of language forms: intelligibility, reproducibility, compliance with mental and ethical norms. The analysis of evaluative vocabulary and keywords demonstrates conventionality and the reserve of assessments given by supporters of gender-fair language as well as the emotionality and figurativeness of assessments provided by opponents. The study of gender problems in amateur language criticism and their linguistic comprehension contributes to the development of modern scientific language criticism.
Eumolpus’ Poetics (Petr. Sat. 118): Problems of Interpretation and Train of Thought
Authors:   St. Petersburg Institute for History, Russian Academy of Sciences, Keyer Denis ,   St. Petersburg State University
Published: March 2022

The article aims to restore the train of thought in Petr. Sat. 118. 3–5. In 118. 3, the manuscript reading sanitatem (instead of the emendation vanitatem) is to be retained and taken not as hinting at the lack of poetic ecstasy, but as ‘stylistic simplicity’ after Pavlova 2017. The adversative ceterum does not imply that poetry is the polar opposite of rhetoric, but stresses that contrary to the expectations of poeticizing orators, true poetry is hard toil. The first neque-clause does not imply contrast with rhetoric, but calls for a copious style (in particular, copious sententiae). The second neque-clause implies that poetry must absorb an immense literary tradition in order to attain a copious language. Thus, the two coordinate neque-clauses in 118. 3 are paired as requiring copiousness (a) in style and (b) in language. In the next two sentences, (a) and (b) are specified in chiastic order: (b) the borrowed diction must be elevated (118. 4); (a) the sententiae (as the primary stylistic ornament) must be integrated into the texture of the poem (118. 5). The idea that absorbing literary tradition must enrich poetic language may be paralleled in Hor. Epist. 2. 2. 115–118. Sententiae are regarded as an essential constituent of poetic style, despite the ironic remark on sententiolae vibrantes in 118. 2.
The Greek “Epigram” by the Leichoudes Brothers to Peter I
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Ermolaeva Elena L.
Published: March 2022

The article provides a transcription, translation, context, and commentary on two versions of a Greek “Epigram” to Peter the Great by the Leichoudes brothers, Ioannikios (1633–1717) and Sophronios (1653–1730), Greeks from Kephallenia who were outstanding religious writers and enlighteners. The poem called “An Epigram to our quietest and crowned by God Tsar Peter Alexeevich, autocrat of Moscow and all of Great, Small and White Rus” was preserved as an example of elegiac couplets in the manuscripts of their textbook “Poetics” (“Περὶ τῆς ποιητικῆς εἴτε μετρικῆς τέχνης”), which they composed for the Slavic-Greek-Latin Academy — the first higher education establishment in Russia set up by the Leichoudes brothers in 1865 in Moscow. The textbook “Poetics” was written in ancient Greek without any Slavic translation. It was taught in the upper classes (suprema). In fact, it appears that this was a textbook on Greek versification. In 1855, the version of the “Epigram” kept in the manuscript of the Russian State Library in Moscow (F. 173 (MTA), № 331), dated to 1687, was published by Sergey Smirnov, but unfortunately this publication was not free from errors. The Greek version of the “Epigram” and its translation into Old Church Slavonic which had been kept in the manuscripts of the Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine in Kiev (F. 306 (Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra) № 337), seems to have never been transcribed and published before. After having compared both versions, the author concludes that the Moscow version has a more elaborate rhetorical style. The “Epigram” was written on the occasion of Peter I’s first visit to the Greek-Slavic school of the Leichoudes brothers at the Epiphany monastery (1685–1687), the predecessor of the Slavic-Greek-Latin Academy.
Nikolai F. Emin’s Imitations of the Ancients and their French Source
Authors:   Institute of Russian Literature (Pushkin House) of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Lappo-Danilevskii Konstantin Yu.
Published: March 2022

The article establishes the source of Imitations of the Ancients, published in 1795 in Saint Petersburg. The translator and compiler of this book was Nikolai F. Emin (1767–1814), son of Fedor A. Emin (1735–1770), the famous Russian writer and adventurer of Turkish origin who died when his son was only three years old. Emin junior did not know ancient languages and therefore used a French anthology by Julien-Jacques Moutonnet de Clairfons (1740–1813), which was printed many times in the 18th century. For his book Emin choose poems by Sappho, Anacreon (to be precise, Anacreontic poetry), Theocritus, Bion, Moschus, Horace and Catullus. Emin also used the biographical preambles to their poems, which he shortened significantly. In the preface to his book, Emin expounded upon the theory of “imitation,” denying the possibility of precision in poetic translation. He also defended the necessity of rhyme in “imitations” of ancient Greek and Latin poetry. Despite these declarations, Emin generally followed quite closely Moutonnet de Clairfons’ French prose. Only once did Emin make fundamental changes. This was in his “imitation” of Theocritus’ eleventh idyll. In this case, he explained his logic in an extensive footnote. Emin changed the ugly cyclops Polyphemes into the gallant and handsome shepherd Menalk, substantiating his decision with the declaration that such a hero better suited “our present age.” In other cases, deviations from ancient texts can be explained not by Emin’s arbitrariness, but by changes made by Moutonnet de Clairfons in the French translation. For example, it was he who combined two poems by Catullus (XCII и LXXXV), a decision that Emin followed. To the famous lament for a sparrow, Moutonnet de Clairfons added an appeal to “sensitive lovers” which is also found in Emin’s text.
“Pseudo-values” in modern Russian media discourse: The experience of logical analysis of implicit evaluativeness in the language of print media
Authors:   National Research Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod, Radbil’ Timur B.
Published: March 2022

The author of this article examines some specific language mechanisms for expressing a special type of implicit evaluativeness in modern Russian media discourse. The author proceeds from the assumption of the existence of so-called “pseudo-values” in the communicative environment of society, which are understood as non-unconditional values. It is noted that the diagnostic, representative context for identifying values of this type in the speech practice of Russian native speakers is a statement that includes a meta-language commentary “v khoroshem smysle (slova)” (“in a good sense (of the word)”). The goal of the study is to identify the main models of language representation of so-called pseudo-values in modern Russian media discourse. The main research methods are the method of logical analysis of implicit information in language utterances and the method of contextual analysis of metalanguage elements of the text. Based on the material of the Newspaper Corpus as part of the Russian National Corpus, the work shows that values of the new Russian reality, declared as positive in the media, such as a career, competition, individualism, “the West”, fashion, etc., actually act as pseudo-values that are not regarded by native speakers in usage as unconditionally positive ones. This is confirmed by the very possibility of using these nominations in mass media discourse with a clarifying meta-language indicator “v khoroshem smysle (slova)”. Special attention is also paid to the use of this meta-language commentary as a conscious means of speech influence and a language manipulation technique. It is concluded that the use of contexts with the said reflexive in media discourse always has the character of an internal polemic: the speaker diverges from the value stereotypes assigned to the depicted phenomena and concepts in an objective language evaluation, in generally accepted nominations, and in the direction of both increasing the evaluation register and lowering it.
Intonation-grammatic deviations in modern media speech
Authors:   Tyumen State University, Kupriyanova Asya I.
Published: March 2022

The author of this article studies the issue of intonation and speech deviation. The relevance of addressing the problems of intonation norms is determined by the expansion of the public demand for educational services in the field of speech technology. In particular, these services are sought-after by those whose sphere of professional activity does not include ensuring media functioning, yet they show a reasonable interest in forming their own information field by speech means of self-presentation. The author believes that in these conditions, speech pedagogy faces new tasks, both practical and theoretical: determining the attitude to the use of the intonation-grammatical norm and its ontological status, as well as looking for effective ways of teaching the mastery of this norm. In this regard, it seems fruitful to refer to the phenomenon of media speech and the impact of this phenomenon on the formation, consolidation and existence of speech norms, especially intonation norms. The author attempts to address the problem of teaching correct intonation through the prism of her pedagogical experience in teaching the course “Speech Techniques”. The starting point of the pedagogue’s work is to determine, on the basis of the theoretical provisions of Russian grammar, the content of the concepts of intonation norm and deviations from it, provide reference examples and explain the reasons for certain distortions in media speech. The author analyzes ideas about the norm in general and the speech norm, revealing the concepts of intonation-grammatical norm and intonation-grammatical deviation. Based on the materials of media speech produced by subjects of media activity with different levels of mastering speech competencies (which are hereby understood as the sources of media speech), the author establishes the peculiarities of intonation and grammatical design of speech within the subject groups, draws conclusions about the specifics of deviations from the norm, identifies types of deviations and provides assumptions about possible reasons for such deviations. Among the reasons, the author lists physiological reasons for the first time. The results of the study reveal new aspects in determining the norms of modern media speech and they can be applied in the development of individual educational routes in teaching speech techniques.
Encyclopedia Literary Museums of Russia and the Pushkin House Literary Museum
Authors:   Institute of Russian Literature (Pushkin House), Agamalyan Larisa G.
Published: March 2022

The article notes the importance of creating the Encyclopedia “Literary Museums of Russia” for writing the history of the phenomenon as a whole and each museum separately. The dictionary proposed by the compilers is the result of a certain inventory of the Literary Museum. Work on the articles of the Encyclopedia made it possible to systematize and update the bibliography, including the latest research and publications. The creation of the encyclopedia facilitated recalling and resurrecting the forgotten names of their creators, as well as museums that have merged with others or have been lost. The Pushkin House Literary Museum includes the collections of the Pushkin Museum at the Imperial Alexander Lyceum, the Lermontov Museum at the Nicholas Cavalry School, the Tolstoy Museum in St. Petersburg, the Pushkin Museum of A. F. Onegin (Otto) in Paris, the Museum of Russian Writers in St. Petersburg created by F. F. Fiedler. The Pushkin House is part of the system of institutions of the Academy of Sciences and its museum has been departmental throughout history, which has determined its complex history. The article recounts the work on articles for the encyclopedia as well as specifics and history of the Literary Museum of the Pushkin House, which sought to create “a special literary pantheon where the relics of Russian writers of the XIX century would be collected and stored.” The vastness of the task determined the structure of its collection and the theme of the exhibition — the first museum of the history of Russian literature. This, in turn, determined the content of 13 articles for the encyclopedia. The exhibition was the first unique experience of illustrating the literary process in a single space. The article highlights the role of the Pushkin House in the formation of the system of literary museums in Russia.

The study evaluates how simulated climate change affects microorganism communities in the desert grassland of Ningxia Autonomous Region, China. It explores the soil microorganism community and relationships among the soil microorganism community, chemical properties, soil respiration (SR), and plant biomass under climate change. We established a field experiment with five levels of rainfall using rainout shelters and two levels of temperature by the Open-Top Chamber (OTC). The results show that in fungal communities, normal precipitation will promote the number and base number of valid sequences the most, and R66 will significantly promote the mean length of the valid sequence. In the bacterial communities, the interaction of increasing temperature and R133 will promote the number of valid sequences and R166 will promote the length of valid sequences. Neither rainfall nor rising temperature promotes not only the soil community α-diversity but also the soil microorganism community β-diversity. Soil microorganism communities show resistance to rainfall. SR will limit the soil microorganism diversity. Soil organic carbon (SOC), soil total nitrogen (STN), and soil total phosphorus (STP) will promote soil microorganism abundance (SMA) and soil microorganism diversity (SMS). Aboveground living biomass (ALB) and soil temperature (ST) will promote soil α-diversity, whereas the effect of root biomass (RB) on the soil α-diversity is the opposite.

Neste trabalho caracterizamos a estrutura em subsuperfície do embasamento adjacente à Sub-bacia Sergipe utilizando dados gravimétricos para fornecer informações sobre a distribuição do contraste de densidade, a geometria e profundidades das principais fontes, a partir da aquisição, processamento, e modelagem bidimensional direta e inversa desses dados. Tais informações geraram uma otimização do entendimento em relação ao arcabouço do embasamento e sua relação com a parte sedimentar da sub-bacia Sergipe. Tivemos como base do estudo informações geológicas, densidade das rochas coletadas na localidade, dados gravimétricos, e interpretação de mapas magnéticos. A inversão bidimensional gravimétrica nos permitiu chegar a um resultado ótimo para o valor contraste de densidade das principais fontes que foi de 0.15-0.20 g/cm³. Algumas fontes anômalas foram mapeadas alcançando profundidades de 5 a 7 km. Na região sedimentar da sub-bacia, a sua interface sedimento-embasamento chega ao limite de 4 a 5 km de profundidade. A integração desses dados permitiu ter um modelo de densidade em subsuperfície mais realista, assim como um modelo geológico interpretativo, e prevê que as regiões dômicas desse embasamento estão acomodados na parte superior da crosta.

Este artigo analisa a influência de agentes externos durante o monitoramento geodésico de estruturas, estudo de caso na barragem da Usina Hidrelétrica (UHE) de Mauá-PR, combinando o método de posicionamento por satélite utilizando GNSS com o método da irradiação utilizando Estação Total robotizada para determinar eventuais movimentos de pontos de monitoramento da barragem. Os procedimentos adotados consistem em comparar os resultados do monitoramento realizado com as comportas do vertedor abertas com os resultados do mesmo monitoramento realizado com as comportas do vertedor fechadas e, consequentemente, analisar se a abertura do vertedor interfere na precisão do monitoramento geodésico, uma vez que o vertedor localiza-se no centro da barragem. Após o processamento dos dados foram feitas análises onde verificou-se que o fato da barragem estar com o vertedor aberto, afeta a precisão das coordenadas no corpo da barragem à jusante apresentando valores significativamente diferentes das coordenadas com o vertedor aberto ou fechado. Paralelamente, com o mesmo equipamento, realizou-se o monitoramento de pontos engastados na crista da barragem à montante onde observou-se que dependendo do ponto da rede geodésica utilizado para a determinação das coordenadas dos pontos na crista da barragem, margem direita, esquerda ou sobre a barragem as coordenadas também apresentam variações significativas.

Published: March 2022

O mineral de ouro no distrito de Manica é extraído ao longo do rio Revué. As intensas actividades de extração e processamento deste mineral tem criado alterações nas classes de uso e cobertura de terras das áreas em que são praticadas as actividades garimpo. Vários estudos estão sendo desenvolvidos sobre os impactos negativos da mineração artesanal de ouro neste distrito sobre meio ambiente, não abordando variação das classes de uso de cobertura.  Este trabalho visa mapear áreas degradadas pela mineração entre os anos de 2000 a 2019 na microbacia do Revue, estimando a quantidade de vegetação nativa suprimida. Para alcançar os objetivos propostos, foi realizado o mapeamento do uso e cobertura da terra através da classificação supervisionada e pelo cálculo do Índice de Vegetação por Diferença Normalizada de imagens de satélite Landsat 05 e Landsat 08 (OLI). As imagens foram pré-processadas e classificadas pelos Sistemas de Informação Geográfica (SPRING 5.5.2, ArcGIS 10.2.1 e QGIS 3.2.3). Os resultados mostraram que o atual padrão de uso e ocupação da terra é marcadamente caracterizado pela presença de áreas de mineração artesanal, industrial e pelo plantio de eucaliptos e pinheiros que se expandem em direção a áreas de vegetação nativa e de solo exposto.
Phyto-targeting the CEMIP Expression as a Strategy to Prevent Pancreatic Cancer Metastasis
Authors: Periyasamy Loganayaki , Muruganantham Bharathi , Park Woo-Yoon , Muthusami Sridhar
Published: March 2022

Introduction:

Metastasis of primary pancreatic cancer (PC) to adjacent or distant organs is responsible for the poor survival rate of affected individuals. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy is being prescribed currently to treat PC in addition to surgical resection. Surgical resection is the preferred treatment for PC that leads to 20% of 5-year survival, but only less than 20% of patients are eligible for surgical resection, because of the poor prognosis. To improve the prognosis and clinical outcome, early diagnostic markers need to be identified, and targeting them would be of immense benefit to increase the efficiency of the treatment. Cell migration inducing hyaluron binding protein (CEMIP) is identified as an important risk factor for the metastasis of various cancers including PC. Emerging studies point out the crucial role forCEMIP in the regulation of various signaling mechanismleading to enhanced migration and metastasis of PC.

Methods:

The published findings in the area of pancreatic cancer metastasis, phyto-constituents and CEMIP were retrieved from Pubmed, Sciencedirect, Cochrane library. Computational tools such as gene expression profiling interactive analysis (GEPIA) and Kaplan–Meier (KM) plotter were used to study the relationship between CEMIP expression and survival of PC individuals.

Results:

Gene expression analysis using GEPIA database identified a stupendousincrease in the CEMIP transcript in PC when compared with adjacent normal tissue. KM plotter analysis revealed a critical role for CEMIP on the overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) among PC patients. Subsequently several risk factors associated with the development of PC were screened and analyzed its ability to regulate CEMIP gene expression using computational tools.

Conclusion:

The current review is focused on gathering information about the regulatory role of phytocomponents on PC migration and exploring their possible impact on the CEMIP expression.
Polymorphism Rs2421943 of the Insulin-Degrading Enzyme Gene and the
Risk of Late-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease
Authors: Šerý Omar , Zeman Tomáš , Hálová Alice , Janout Vladimír , Janoutová Jana , Lochman Jan , Balcar Vladimir J.
Published: March 2022

Background:

Insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) is a widely distributed Zn2+-binding metalloprotease
that cleaves multiple short and medium-sized peptides prone to form β-structures. These
include insulin and amyloid-β peptides. Accumulation and fibrillation of amyloid-β peptides leading
to the formation of amyloid plaques is a characteristic sign of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology.

Objective:

The study investigated the rs2421943 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the IDE
gene as a risk factor for MCI (mild cognitive impairment) and AD.

Methods:

Two independent groups of 1670 patients and controls were included. The AD group consisted of 595 patients and 400 controls; the MCI group involved 135 patients and 540 matched controls. PCR and restriction fragment length analysis was used for analysis of the rs2421943 polymorphism. Using the miRBase and RNA22 prediction tools in silico indicated that the rs2421943 polymorphism is a potential target for a specific miRNA (hsa-miR-7110-5p).

Results:

AG and GG genotypes of rs2421943 significantly increased the risk of AD, and the AG genotype
increased the risk of MCI. It seems the G allele both increases the risk of AD and accelerates the
transition through the MCI phase. In silico study revealed that rs2421943 is inside the sequence binding
miRNA hsa-miR-7110-5p. The polymorphism could affect the rate of IDE pre-RNA (heterogeneous
nuclear RNA, hnRNA) processing, resulting in slower translation, lower levels of IDE, deficient
removal of amyloid-β fragments, and greater risk of and/or accelerated progression of AD.

Conclusions:

GG and AG genotypes of the single nucleotide polymorphism rs2421943 of insulindegrading
enzyme gene increase the risk of AD and MCI.

Published: March 2022

Since the initial outbreak in December 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic caused by the severe
acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has led to more than 3 million deaths
worldwide. There is an urgent need for developing a potential therapy against SARS-CoV-2. Exploring
the potentials of phytochemicals towards inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 proteins remains of significant
scientific interest. The therapeutic values of phytochemicals in the treatment of diseases, such as
viral infections, are known for a long time. In this review, we present a brief overview of the past experimental
and computational efforts on evaluating phytochemicals against SARS coronaviruses, an
earlier coronavirus strain. We discuss natural metabolites of different structural and chemical scaffolds,
including polyphenols, flavonoids, and phytosterols, which can be promising compounds for
screening against the currently evolving SARS-CoV-2 virus.
