Authors: Maia Kapanadze Maia Kapanadze , Giorgi Chincharauli Giorgi Chincharauli
Published: April 2022

The topic discusses the problems of double taxation and incorrect taxes, both in the general theoretical aspect and in the specific reality of Georgia. The negative role of double taxation and irregular taxes and their specificity in socio-economic development, both internationally and nationally, are shown. The merits of the incorrect and non-existent legislation of Georgia in the emergence of these problems are also presented analytically.
Moreover, there are specifically discussed: transport parking fee; Authorization of higher education institutions, non-refund of taxes in case of non-accreditation; Education Center service fee; Public Registry Service Fee; Non-refund of unregistered land tax; The activities of the organizations that operate with the funding of the state budget.
Furthermore, they are shown to play a role in generating double taxation and incorrect tax rates. It is well known that when the population pays for services, state organizations had to operate on the basis of an economic or commercial account, otherwise double taxation and erroneous taxes remain in force, which worsens the socio-economic situation of the state.
Keywords: Double taxation, incorrect tax, taxable, parking, authorization, accreditation.

Authors: Gorbenko T.V.
Published: April 2022

The article is devoted to the definition and disclosure of the essence of investigative actions. The variety of classification criteria in determining investigative actions indicates the debatable understanding of their essence by scientists of the sciences of the criminal law cycle. The article presents the positions of scientists regarding the definition of the essence of investigative actions, which are subjected to the author’s theoretical analysis. In this regard, the author comes to the need to identify investigative actions of a search and cognitive nature. Justifies the need to consider investigative actions from the perspective of the complexity of search and cognitive operations, the implementation of which is determined by the content of the investigative action. It is indicated that only through search and cognitive activity is it possible to identify factual data that acquire evidentiary value in the course of the investigation. This approach is focused on the effective detection and investigation of crimes. The importance of the allocation of the considered group of investigative actions for law enforcement activities is emphasized. The author comes to the conclusion that all investigative actions provided for by the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, with the exception of the seizure of postal and telegraph items, can be attributed to the group of investigative actions under consideration.
ОN THE PROBLEMS OF THE APPLICATION OF CRIMINAL PROCEDURE AND CRIMINAL LAWS BY THE COURTS WHEN MAKING DECISIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES ON CRIMES OF EXTREMIST AND TERRORIST ORIENTATION OF SMALL AND MEDIUM GRAVITY
Authors: Ravnushkin A. V.
Published: April 2022

The author analyzes judicial statistics on crimes of an extremist and terrorist nature and judicial practice on the consideration of criminal cases on crimes of this category of small and medium gravity, and studies the scientific literature on this issue. Despite the fact that these crimes are not the most common, however, in view of their public danger, they cause a strong public response. It is established that the judicial practice in cases of this category is multidirectional, and in some cases contradicts the materials of criminal cases, the decisions of the courts were made as a result of improper application of the criminal law. At the same time, even if the courts take into account all the circumstances of the crime of small and medium gravity of this direction, the current legislation allows the courts to actively terminate criminal cases (criminal prosecution) on non-rehabilitating grounds, including in connection with the appointment of a court fine. In order to form a unified and systematic approach to the legal assessment and evidentiary process in criminal cases of crimes of an extremist and terrorist nature, the author proposes to make additions to the resolutions of the Plenums of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.

Authors: Iamonico Duilio , Sciuto Katia , Sfriso Adriano , Argenti Carlo , Wolf Marion A.
Published: April 2022

A new species, Blitum venetum Iamonico, Argenti, Sciuto & Wolf is described from the Dolomites Massif (North-Eastern Italy) on the basis of molecular analyses (nuclear ITS and plastid trnL-F regions) and morphological investigation. The new species is similar to B. bonus-henricus and B. californicum, but it differs from these taxa by characters of leaves (width, pubescence, and margins), inflorescence (presence of bracts), perianth segments (colour), and seeds (diameter, colour, and seed testa ornamentation). Moreover, in phylogenetic reconstructions B. venetum results as clearly separated from the other species of the genus; this finding was further strengthened by the nucleotide divergences calculated between the sequence of the type specimen and other Blitum taxa, which are comparable with the interspecific divergences calculated inside this genus.

Published: April 2022

Morphological and nomenclatural investigations for two critical Mediterranean species of Elatine, i.e., E. macropoda and E. gussonei, as
well as their correct distribution in Sicily, are discussed. These two names are lectotypified on herbarium specimens kept, respectively, at NAP and FI. The morphological investigations carried out on both the types, as well as on several living and dried material collected in southern Sicily, Lampedusa, and Malta (loci classici included), allowed to individuate reliable diagnostic characters that can be used for a correct identification of the two species. The most relevant differential features are: ratio petal/sepal, size and shape of the seed
testa pits, and their arrangement in row number. According to our results, only E. macropoda occurs in the Hyblaean territory (Sicily), which is the locus classicus, whereas E. gussonei occurs on Lampedusa and Maltese islands only. However, further and in-depth morphological research is necessary to clarify their overall distribution in the Mediterranean area. Finally, an analytic key to the Mediterranean Elatine is provided.

Nicht nur in Berlin werden Programme zur Realisierung einer Wasserstoffwirtschaft ohne ausreichende Berücksichtigung von physikalischen Zusammenhängen und technischen Grenzen formuliert. Die von Wasserstoffbefürwortern verbreitete Begeisterung hat auch die politischen Kreise erreicht. Zu faszinierend ist die Idee, Wasserstoff zum universellen Energieträger zu machen, mit dem man alles antreibt, was sich bewegen soll, Gebäude heizt, chemische Produkte herstellt und Strom bedarfsgerecht vor Ort erzeugt. Doch wie sinnhaft sind diese Strategien tatsächlich?

Published: April 2022

The optimization of photovoltaic power system should be designed based on measuring the environmental factors and analyze the condition of electric power distribution in the region where it is to be installed. Using big data analysis on the environmental factors can solve the problems that could potentially affect power output. In this study, the environmental factors and LV grid quality in Yangon, Myanmar are measured and examined to establish whether a photovoltaic power system can be used. The environmental factors were collected specifically with the specially designed monitoring system which are gathering the environmental data every minute for one year. The monitoring system simultaneously measured environmental factors including horizontal/inclined solar irradiation, ambient temperature, and wind speed. The temperature was the highest from March to May in the Yangon region. During this period, the average temperature was 34°C and temperature at noon was 40°C or higher. Inclined solar irradiation reached its highest at > 6 kW·m-2/day in March and decreased to < 4 kW·m-2/day from July to October, when the rainy season began. In terms of LV grid quality, the voltage was determined to be unstable as it was 105 Vac at its minimum and 214 Vac at its maximum.
Applications of Omics Technologies in Regenerative Therapies for Cardiac Repair
Authors:   Manchester Institute of Biotechnology, The University of Manchester, 131 Princess Street, M1 7DN, Manchester, UK, Tripathi Pallavi
Published: April 2022

Lately, cardio regenerative therapeutic approaches in clinic have received strong boost from promising research advances in stem cells. Researchers have shown applications of the first generation of clinical trials using cell-based therapies in the heart that have been performed with bone marrow and adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells shortcomings in the first generation cells. Second generation cell therapies are considered superior and being considered towards the use of cardiac-committed cell populations. These include cardiac progenitor cells and pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes. However, translating the research laboratory results along with pre-clinical data into effective clinical treatments is still thought to be challenging. This is due to the existing lack of knowledge on the regenerative mechanisms of action of these therapeutic products in addition to the stringent regulatory and safety concerns. This has prompted researchers to consider advanced analytical methods for characterization of such complex products and a deep understanding of their therapeutic effects at the cell and molecular level. This characterization is considered very critical to overcome the challenges and make these cells compatible with the advanced therapies. To this end, omics technologies including proteomics and glyco(proteo)mics that are based on state-of-the-art mass-spectrometry have shown tremendous promise to generate novel data on cell biology along with the required assessment of cell based-products that are applied in cardiac regeneration strategies. In this perspective, we have described proteomics and glyco(proteo)mics and discuss the impact of omics technologies on cardiac progenitor cells and pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes biology cardiac regenerative therapies.
Atomwaffen Division and its Affiliates on Telegram: Variations, Practices, and Interconnections
Authors:   Cyber Threats Research Centre, Mattheis Ashley A.
Published: April 2022

This research brief details findings from a recent collaborative project exploring different groups related to Atomwaffen Division (AWD) on Telegram. The brief provides an initial foray into understanding the digital communicative practices these AWD-related groups use to maintain their loose structure as a transnational, digitally networked extremist culture. Groups affiliated with the meta-brand of AWD are continuing to develop globally and building a transnational, digital networked culture, despite increased scrutiny. This indicates that their structure as a digitally networked, transnational culture provides resilience to traditional policy and law enforcement approaches. Addressing this threat requires insight into the practices that such groups use to interconnect their now multi-nodal, supranational organization.

Aim. To evaluate the reasons for seeking dental care for children and teenagers attending an emergency clinic and the proportion of single visits treatments. Material and methods. A retrospective study was made on 500 children and teenagers (252 girls), mean age 13.91±2.3 years, who attended the emergency office from the Paedodontics Department of "Carol Davila" University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Bucharest, during 2017-2019. Information regarding age/gender/diagnosis and treatment were analyzed. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics and Pearson's Chi-square test with the significance level set as p < 0.05. Results. For 401 children (80.2%), pain was the main reason for the presentation in an emergency visit. 11% came for a specialist consultation and the others 8.8% because of a dental trauma. Nearly 79% of the visits were due to caries: 39% simple decays and 40% complicated caries. Of the decayed teeth, 62.8% were on the posterior teeth and 37.2% on the anterior permanent teeth. Only 15.4% needed one single visit treatment, the others needed a complex pulp therapy. Conclusions. Pain caused by dental decay was the most frequent chief complaint. A lot of children were brought to the dentist with complaints that had started long time before, for which over-the-counter medications had been used. Most children had complicated caries which requires multiple treatment sessions.

Prenatal ultrasound examination should take place between 18 and 20 week of gestation and is important for early detection of fetal anomalies such as the facial malformations. One important anatomic element is the palate that raises echographic technical difficulties such as the shadowing by facial bones and, especially, by the superior alveolar ridge, the fetal prone position and its localization, respectively, profoundly, inside of fetal head or anatomic obstacles such as the fetal tongue, so new echographic examination techniques are being under evaluation. The prenatal detection rate of fetal cleft palate remains low, so various methods of examination are being proposed. The ultrasound assessment of the fetal face is made by 2D ultrasound, technique completed by 3D ultrasound, which includes the evaluation in both axial and coronal planes, with the uvula being analyzed in two types of section, transversal and sagittal. In the latter to epiglottis is a landmark that confirms the identification of the uvula and a normal uvula has a typical and resembling echographic pattern to the equal sign. Even tough, prenatal diagnosis of soft palate cleft is a real challenge, with low detection rate due to difficulty of its visualization during routine examination, and even if suspected, diagnostic accuracy is low.

The case of a 69-years-old patient with flared anterior teeth (bi-pro-alveolar position with loose of contact points) secondary to periodontitis, was resolved by combining alveolar maxillary preservation with orthodontic treatment to correct the alveolar axes of the mandibular incisors. All mandibular teeth were finally removed but the implants could be placed in the correct antero-posterior tilt axes. The temporary maxillary prosthesis was a removable one under conditions of a thin gingival biotype. The final result meant the correction of the profile and a good preservation of the minimally keratinized gingiva around implants.

Maternal oral pathologies during pregnancy represent a controversial subject. The incidence of periodontal disease is approximatively 40% among pregnant women. Periodontal disease has been associated with several unfortunate outcomes; among them, the most important are cardiovascular disorders, respiratory infections, diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. Regarding mechanisms, bacteria enter the blood stream and cross the placenta or the inflammatory mediators can affect the fetoplacental unit or generate an increased inflammatory response with subsequent consequences on the fetus. The most disputed subjects concerning periodontal disease in pregnancy are related to the effects on the pregnancy outcome and the offspring, respectively the associations between maternal periodontal disease and small for gestational age, preeclampsia, arteriosclerosis, gestational diabetes and perinatal mortality. In order to improve neonatal outcome and ensure maternal oral health, we should assure that the necessary dental treatment is provided during the entire pregnancy, preferably between 14 and 20 gestational weeks. Moreover, women should be encouraged to received dental treatment preconceptionally.

Hospitalized COVID-19 patients often develop acute kidney injury (AKI), leading to increased mortality. In order to improve patients’ survival rate, it is important to understand the pathophysiology mechanism of AKI. In this brief review, we highlight the most important elements of the etiology and pathophysiology of COVID-19 associated AKI. Acute tubular injury seems to be more frequent than prerenal azotemia in COVID-19 patients and collapsing glomerulopathy is the most encountered form of glomerular disease. Another important role in acute kidney injury seems to play immune cell infiltration, inflammation, endothelial injury and microvascular thrombi. Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is also important in the pathophysiology of COVID-19 associated AKI.

Symptoms of biliary lithiasis may vary during pregnancy, from a slight added digestive discomfort to biliary colic of varying intensity, acute cholecystitis, or acute pancreatitis. Ultrasonography is the gold standard for diagnosis of sludge and gallstones, being both highly sensitive and specific. Initial management overlaps with the out-of-pregnancy management, initiating conservative, supportive care, as well as an adequate diet. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is considered a safe intervention in pregnancy, being the second most common surgery after appendicectomy. If open laparoscopy is preferred, the major risk - perforation of the uterus - is avoided. Important complications of gallstones in pregnancy, jaundice and acute pancreatitis can be resolved safely and quickly by cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) techniques, with stone removal, sphincterotomy or stent mounting. After remission of pancreatic symptoms, laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be performed. Recent scientific data and current practice suggest an increase of biliopancreatic emergencies during pregnancy (probably due to rising incidence of obesity, age of gravida, prolonged use of oral combined contraceptives, dyslipidemia, etc.). Surgeons, as well as obstetricians, should be aware of the prompt modern management of these cases.

Massive Black Hole Formation in Dense Stellar Environments: Enhanced X-Ray Detection Rates in High-velocity Dispersion Nuclear Star Clusters

We analyze Chandra X-ray Observatory imaging of 108 galaxies hosting nuclear star clusters (NSCs) to search for signatures of massive black holes (BHs). NSCs are extremely dense stellar environments with conditions that can theoretically facilitate massive BH formation. Recent work by Stone et al. finds that sufficiently dense NSCs should be unstable to the runaway growth of a stellar-mass BH into a massive BH via tidal captures. Furthermore, there is a velocity dispersion threshold (40 km s−1) above which NSCs should inevitably form a massive BH. To provide an observational test of these theories, we measure X-ray emission from NSCs and compare it to the measured velocity dispersion and tidal capture runaway timescale. We find that NSCs above the 40 km s−1 threshold are X-ray detected at roughly twice the rate of those below (after accounting for contamination from X-ray binaries). These results are consistent with a scenario in which dense, high-velocity NSCs can form massive BHs, providing a formation pathway that does not rely on conditions found only at high redshift.

Published: April 2022

In the current note, we broaden the utilization of a new and efficient analytical computational scheme, approximate analytical method for obtaining the solutions of fractional-order Fokker-Planck equations. The approximate solution is obtained by decomposition technique along with the property of Riemann-Liouuille fractional partial integral operator. The Caputo-Riemann operator property for fractional-order partial differential equations is calculated through the utilization of the provided initial source. This analytical scheme generates the series form solution which is fast convergent to the exact solutions. The obtained results have shown that the new technique for analytical solutions is simple to implement and very effective for analyzing the complex problems that arise in connected areas of science and technology.
