Assessment of the Development of Agriculture in Russia Based on the System of National Accounting
Authors: Zinchenko A. P. , Kagirova M. V. 
Published: October 2021

The growing interest both in our country and throughout the world in agriculture as an economic activity of strategic importance for ensuring food independence of the country determines the relevance of research on devising approaches to the analysis of its development using statistical methods. The authors’ approaches to assessing the development of agriculture in Russia based on data from the system of national accounts, including input-output tables, presented in this paper, make it possible to characterize the dynamics of the formation and use of output and gross value added (GVA) of the agricultural sector of the economy (including in the institutional context); assess the demand for each of the presented products within the industry and in the intermediate consumption of other industries; to identify structural changes in the composition of intermediate consumption in the production of goods; determine the trends and prospects for the development of agriculture on their basis.As part of the study, the authors disclosed additional analytical capabilities of statistical databases that include agricultural censuses and current accounting data in the system of macroeconomic indicators and allow for a more accurate assessment of the eﬀectiveness of agricultural development. The calculated coefcients of direct costs ranged in the form of time series, analysis of the structure of intermediate consumption made it possible to identify the features of the development of the Russian agricultural sector and the directions for improving its economic and statistical analysis. The authors argue for the need to take into account the phenomenon of multistructure of agriculture in Russia to calculate the gross value added produced in the sector of peasant farms, subsidiary farms, separately small and large agricultural organizations, including holdings, with the obligatory comparison of the selling prices of their products used when calculating output and GVA. A proposal was made to include a table with additional information on labor costs and consumption of feed, fertilizers, electricity, and other basic resources in physical terms in the system of input-output tables by industry.
Cluster Analysis of Russian Universities Based on the Dynamics of Their Performance Indicators
Authors: Melikyan A. V 
Published: October 2021

The article presents the results of a study, the aim of which is to investigate the dynamics of the development of Russian higher education institutions based on an analysis of their performance indicators. The sample includes 535 universities from 80 constituent entities of the Russian Federation. It presents the results of the clustering of universities on the basis of changes in indicators of six variables characterizing the key areas of activity of universities for the period from 2013/2014 to 2017/2018 academic years. The characteristics of each cluster are described, an inter-cluster comparison of quantitative indicators of the activities of universities is presented.As a result of the calculations of the average annual growth rates of six key indicators characterizing the activities of universities, fve clusters were identifed that diﬀer in their development trajectories. Thus, the universities that belong to Cluster 1 over a fve-year period retained or improved their positions in the main areas of educational activity and managed to maintain income growth at an average level.However, their indicators in such areas as international and research activities, as well as infrastructure development (provision of educational and laboratory facilities) have decreased. In universities from clusters 2 and 3, all performance indicators changed in a fairly balanced way. At the same time, the indicator of an increase in the internationalization of the students’ body was signifcantly higher in Cluster 2, while educational organizations from Cluster 3 showed a signifcant increase in the publication activity of academic staﬀ.The results of the activities of universities in Cluster 4 were positive in all considered areas. This cluster had the highest average annual growth rates in the average Unifed State Exam (USE) score and publication activity of the academic staﬀ. Educational organizations from Cluster 5, on the one hand, achieved the best results in attracting foreign students, increasing the proftability of their activities and the provision of teaching and laboratory facilities but, on the other hand, their average annual growth rate of the average USE score has signifcantly decreased.The study represents one of the frst attempts to cluster Russian universities based on the analysis of changes in their performance indicators. Previous studies on the clustering of universities were mainly based on the analysis of one-time indicators. The approach proposed by the author makes it possible to compare indicators of the dynamics of development of higher educational institutions of diﬀerent size and scope. Further research in this area could be aimed at analyzing a larger number of performance indicators of universities and studying in detail their strategies for a deeper understanding of the reasons for the diﬀerences in their eﬀectiveness.

Aim. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of thoracoscopic and hybrid techniques in patients with various forms of atrial fibrillation (AF).Methods. The results of thoracoscopic ablation of 87 patients with AF were analyzed: 27 (31%) with paroxysmal form, 15 (17%) - with persistent, 45 (52%) - with long-term persistent form at follow-up 18.6±6.7 months. “Box-Lesion” treatments and amputation of left atrial appendage (LAA) were performed in 69 (79.3%) patients, “Box Lesion” without LAA amputation in 12 (13.7%). When atrial tachycardia was recorded for more than 30 seconds after a 3-month “blind” period, patients underwent hybrid catheter intervention.Results. Freedom from atrial arrhythmias in the group of paroxysmal AF was achieved in 84% of patients (21 of 25), in the group of persistent form - in 60% of patients (9 of 15), in the group of long-term persistent form - in 78% (32 of 41) at a given observation period. In the structure of postoperative atrial tachycardia, AF recurrence was 5 (6.25%), typical atrial flutter (AFL) - 3 (3.75%), atypical AFL - 10 (12.5%). The mean LA volume index in patients with stable sinus rhythm was 64.6±11.3 ml/m2 versus 74.65±15.4 ml/m2 in the atrial tachycardia group (Student’s t-test 0.53, p = 0.6). These patients underwent a hybrid intervention. At a follow-up period of 15.9±10.9 months, a stable sinus rhythm was maintained in 15 (83.3%) patients. The overall rate of intra- and postoperative complications of thoracoscopic ablation was 5.7%.Conclusion. Thoracoscopic and hybrid approaches are effective methods for various forms of AF treatment.

Published: October 2021

Evidence based public health is one of the basic training tools of public health students and young officers in decision making. The training tools for early career specialists and trainees in public health is journal clubs (JC). It keeps the knowledge of professionals up to date and assist them in receiving information to design, plan, implement health care services, policies and strategies.
The intention of the JC team was to raise awareness of methods for public health literature search, appraising it and applying this knowledge in their daily practices. A senior public health practitioner in Somaliland (the corresponding author) invited medical students and residents to have JCs as a part of their training. They did not accept the offer so the organizer invited practicing junior public health professionals instead. The JC team members were a general practitioner and 3 public health workers from Ministry of Health, public hospital physician, public health school and field public health officer. A weekly or twice weekly journal club took place to train them in critical appraisal. This continued for 15 months in a hybrid mentorship for the health care professionals.
The team mentor selected a paper for discussion. Mentees choose a study design appraisal tool from the Critical Appraisal Skills Program (CASP) that matched the study to present. In the process of appraisal, a team member led the discussion using the checklist.
The mentees presented their critical appraisal either orally or via a presentation. The checklist and paper were compared for assessing the study design and structure of the paper of the week.
This approach of empowering junior public health officers in Somalia is a way forward for encouraging the professionals to use evidence based practice in their daily practices. This will improve their selection of research tools and translating the scientific work into their practice and services.
Global Sky Models can Improve Flux Estimates in Pulsar and FRB Studies
Authors: Price Danny C. 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
It is commonplace in pulsar and fast radio burst literature to estimate sky temperature by frequency-scaling of the Haslam et al. 408 MHz map. I suggest that this practice should stop, in favor of using readily available global sky models of diffuse foregrounds. This practical change will improve accuracy of pulse flux estimates.
A Shortcut to Calculate SPAM Limb-darkening Coefficients
Authors: Morello Giuseppe , Chiavassa Andrea 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
We release a new grid of stellar limb-darkening coefficients (LDCs, using the quadratic, power-2 and claret-4 laws) and intensity profiles for the Kepler, U, B, V and R passbands, based on STAGGER model atmospheres. The data can be downloaded from Zenodo: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5593162. We compare the newly released LDCs, computed by ExoTETHyS, with previously published values, based on the same atmospheric models using a so-called “SPAM” procedure. The SPAM method relies on synthetic light curves in order to compute the LDCs that best represent the photometry of exoplanetary transits. We confirm that ExoTETHyS achieves the same objective with a much simpler algorithm.
L’assurance sociale confiée à des assureurs privés : Medicare Advantage aux États-Unis
Authors: ApRoberts Lucy 
Published: October 2021

Unique assurance sociale pour la santé aux États-Unis, Medicare couvre les personnes âgées de 65 ans ou plus. Comme la couverture de Medicare n’exclut pas des restes à charge importants, ses bénéficiaires souscrivent généralement une assurance complémentaire privée. Toutefois, un autre dispositif en pleine émergence peut être souscrit par les bénéficiaires de Medicare : un contrat dit « Medicare Advantage » offert par un assureur privé qui gère un réseau de soins. Ce type de contrat est financé par Medicare et couvre les mêmes garanties, à ceci près qu’il offre en plus une couverture complémentaire. La proportion d’affiliés à Medicare qui choisissent Medicare Advantage – 40 % actuellement – augmente chaque année. Pour les assurés sociaux, les réseaux restreignent le choix des soignants mais ils réalisent des économies telles que les assurés obtiennent une meilleure couverture que Medicare sans payer davantage. Mais la concurrence entre assureurs privés impose des contrats qui réduisent la solidarité entre malades et bien portants.

Authors: Teli Josna Ganesh , Reddy Satish , Kamath Vasantha , Jacob M. J. , Mohan Dharani , Markanday Kushal 
Published: October 2021

Background:
COVID-19 has swiftly spread to emerge as a global pandemic with no visible signs of decline. It is imperative to identify the parameters contributing toward COVID-19 mortality to facilitate prompt evaluation and control measures.

Materials and Methods:
A total of 1754 patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection were admitted at MVJMC and RH, Bangalore, from July 1, 2020 to December 12, 2020. Various parameters such as demographical profile, symptomatology, risk factors, laboratory profile, and complications of 75 patients (4.27%) who succumbed were studied.

Results:
About 45.33% of the patients who died were older than 65 years. 77% of patients who died were males. About 61.33% had severe illness at the time of presentation. 84% of the patients who died had comorbid illnesses. Respiratory failure secondary to acute respiratory distress syndrome and bilateral pneumonia was the leading cause of mortality followed by sepsis/multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, myocarditis, coagulopathy, and acute cardiovascular event. The presence of lymphopenia elevated inflammatory markers, and comorbid conditions were identified as risk factors for the requirement of oxygen, mechanical ventilation, and death.

Conclusion:
Elderly patients (>65 years of age) and middle-age patients (45–65 years of age) comprised the highest and second-highest proportion of mortality respectively. The increasing proportion of deaths among the middle-aged patients and the narrowing gap of the same between these two groups are alarming. Old age, male gender, underlying chronic illnesses, and elevated inflammatory markers are some of the factors attributed to these trends. Hence, stringent preventive measures, early detection, and initiation of treatment pose a greater impact on reducing the burden of morbidity and mortality.

Authors: Shetty B. Abhiman , Shilpa T. A. , Rajanna Avinash Hanbe , Ravi K. , Rao Medha , Bhat Bhargav 
Published: October 2021

Aim:
This study aims to find the association of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (N-L ratio) of COVID-19 patients admitted in an Indian setting with clinical profile and disease outcomes.

Background:
The COVID-19 pandemic hit in early 2020 with the presentation of varied severity of acute respiratory illness. This study tries to use N-L ratio as a predictor of adverse outcome.

Methodology:
The prospective single-center study considered adults patients of both the gender, diagnosed with COVID-19 infection by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction technique. Necessary demographic and clinical data were collected, and selected subjects were followed up until discharge or death. Individuals were classified as those who survived and those who succumbed to death. t-test was used for comparing continuous variables and Chi-square test for categorical data for comparing different parameters between the groups.

Results:
The study included 1977 patients with a male:female ratio of 1:0.62. Fever, dyspnea, and cough were noted as the major symptoms prevalent among patients who succumbed to death when compared to those who survived (P < 0.00001). Statistically significant variables noted between the groups were age, total leukocytes count (TLC), neutrophil, lymphocytes, all the comorbidity variables, and the asymptomatic status. Variables identified as significant predictors of disease outcomes were TLC, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and N-L ratio. Most of the subjects belonging to the mortality group required oxygen and other intensive care unit facilities when compared to the survival group (P < 0.00001).

Conclusion:
TLC, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and N-L ratio are noted as significant predictors of COVID-19 outcome. The mean days of viral clearance noted in COVID subjects is around 8.98 ± 3.54 days.

Published: October 2021

Background:
In India, there is a scarcity of epidemiological data related to risk factors and prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress (DAS) among diabetics. Therefore, their estimation may provide data for an effective management of these disorders in diabetic patients.

Aim:
The current study was undertaken to analyze the effect of sociodemographic characteristics toward DAS symptoms and to estimate the prevalence of DAS among diabetics.

Materials and Methods:
It was a cross-sectional study conducted among diabetics at the resource-limited settings of South India. Non probabilistic convenient sampling was used for recruitment fo study subjects. DAS scale 21 questionnaire is a validated self-report questionnaire designed to measure the severity of a range of symptoms for DAS. The patients with established psychiatric disorders were excluded from the study.

Results:
Overall, the prevalence of DAS symptoms was 57.5%, 55.9%, and 44.9%, respectively, and which ranges from mild to extremely severe. Gender plays a major role in increasing the prevalence of depressive and stress symptoms. The elderly age group was found to have more prevalence of all these three symptoms than younger age.

Conclusions:
The study showed that the prevalence of DAS symptoms was high. However, in our study, these symptoms are poorly associated to demographic characteristics. We recommend to screen all the diabetic patients for DAS symptoms.
Evaluation of Serum Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio in The Results of Thyroid Fine Needle Aspiration: Can It Discriminate A Clinical Benefit for the Atypia of Undetermined Significance?

Published: October 2021

Introduction: Thyroid biopsy results are evaluated according to The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) worldwide. The most ambiguous result from these categories is the Bethesda-III which is defined as “atypia of undetermined significance” (AUS). Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is still evaluated in thyroid disorders and malignancy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the NLR results in Bethesda Categories and whether the NLR can discriminate a clinical benefit for the AUS category.
Methods: In this retrospective study, 1771 patients who had fine needle aspiration biopsy(FNAB) were examined. Demographic characteristics, NLR, Bethesda scores, operation rates and postoperative histopathological results were recorded.
Results: The categories were; Bethesda-I for 298(16,8%), Bethesda-II for 1320(74,5%), Bethesda-III for 60(3,4%), Bethesda-IV for 27(1,5%), Bethesda-V for 36(2%), Bethesda-VI for 30(1,7%) results respectively. The mean NLR was 2,68. There was no statistically significant difference between groups in terms of NLR(p=0.250). Overall, 226 (12,76%) patients were undergoing thyroidectomy. The AUS group was founded by 3.4%, operation rate was 21,66% and malignancy rate was 23,07%. There was a statistically significant difference between Bethesda scores and malignancy rates(p
