Introduction. Contemporary Kalmyk studies are characterized by that there are still a number of insufficiently explored issues dealing with the shaping of the Kalmyk ethnos, including that of identities of their ancestors within materials related to the religious tradition. Goals. The article seeks to reveal the ties between identities of Kalmyks and Oirats ― and fellow countrymen communities of Drepung Gomang Monastery at earliest stages of Buddhist history among the Mongolic peoples. Results. The work clarifies the specific features of identifying Oirats and Kalmyks through the prism of the Tibetan monastic tradition, and shows the historical changes of identity-related terms. Currently, Drepung Gomang comprises a total of 16 countrymen communities-kangtsens (Tib. khang-tshan) further divided into 22 mitsans (Tib. mi-tshang), i. e. local communities. Representatives of Mongolia and students from Russia’s Buryatia and Tyva are included in Samlo Kangtsen (Tib. bSam-blo Khang-tshan), and the latter’s ten mitsans comprise one referred to as Khalkha Mitsan. As for Kalmyk students, they are affiliated to Hardong Kangtsen (Tib. Har-gdong Khang-tshan) that numbers nine mitsans, and those related to Oirats, Southern Mongols and Kalmyks are Tsokha, Joorche, and Thorgo (Torghut) ones. The emergence of Thorgo and Tsokha Mitsans is closely tied to the history of Oirats and Kalmyks. The paper concludes the name of Thorgo Mitsan is historically related to the identity of prominent Kalmyk monks within Drepung Gomang Monastery, and up to the late 18th century served to denoted the community of monks from the Kalmyk Khanate proper. After the exodus of Kalmyks from the Volga and their resettlement across Xinjiang, Thorgo Mitsan was largely inhabited by the newly arrived ethnic Kalmyks of Torghut descent. Such historical transformations may have introduced structural changes within mitsans, which resulted from ethnic identities of Oirat or Kalmyk monks admitted.

Introduction. Research on Buryat and Kalmyk pilgrimage to Buddhist worshiping sites in Tibet and wider in Inner Asia at the late imperial period mostly focuses on biographies and travel writings of Buddhist clergy, while experience of ordinary pilgrims ― especially of the lay people (Mong. khara khün) who were actors of this social phenomena ― received limited attention. However, some of the Buryat ‘oral histories’ about long distance travels to Tibet were recorded later by Buryat intellectuals (e. g., B. B. Baradiin) to name but a few. Goals. The article aims to introduce one such record made in 1968 by a rural community school teacher and amateur historian B. B. Namsaraev. Results. The latter wrote down a life story (Mong. namtar) of Bato Badmaev, an elder from the village of Suduntui, about his pilgrimage to Tibet between 1901 and 1904. This travelogue by a lay person presents unique first-hand observations about hardships of the long distance foot pilgrimage to worshiping places in Urga, Amdo and Tibet ― a wide social phenomenon among Buryats at the beginning of the 20th century. This ‘oral history’ together with extensive information about infrastructure along the pilgrim routes (Mongolian and Tibetan families hosting pilgrims and providing meals to them, travel tips they shared of how to pass the most dangerous hostile deserts and mountain passes, encountering a yeti snowman (Mong. almaz), etc.) contain emotional remarks about things experienced and bodily hardships pilgrims faced (thirst, physical exhaustion, extreme temperatures, and so on) ― aspects which are not covered in travelogues of Buddhist clergy and professional explorers (e. g., merchants, military specialists) who were in much more privileged travel conditions hiring horses and camels to carry their goods and belongings. Therefore, the recent publication (2012) of this unique travelogue made it more accessible and available to a wider audience.

Published: February 2021

Introduction. By the beginning of the 20th century, the Mongols had widely used texts on apotropaic magic in their daily life. Among them there are writings with pictures and descriptions of talismans aimed at averting diseases and mishaps, attracting wealth and good favour. All this sort of writings resembles heterogeneity of traditions. Goals. The paper aims at examining various types of ‘booklore’ talismans in magic practices of the Mongols. Results. Like other spheres of Mongolian culture those represent pre-Buddhist, Buddhist and Chinese layers. That was conditioned by the history of the Mongols, their neighbourhood with civilizations they had been integrated with during the course of their existence. As for ‘booklore’ talismans, there are two groups of them: one includes pictures originated from Taoist talismans, the other includes Indian and Tibetan dharanis, texts and Buddhist symbols. They penetrated into the Mongolian culture in different periods and in different ways. Thus, usage of ‘booklore’ talismans by the Mongols resulted in complicated multi-layer complexes which assembled Hindu, Tibetan pre-Buddhist, Mongolized Buddhist and Chinese Taoist elements in different combinations. Conclusions. The work reveals several clusters of ‘booklore’ talismans once popular among the Mongols and originated from pre-Buddhist, Buddhist and Taoist beliefs.

Introduction. Oil lamp snuff divination practices used to be widespread enough in Tibet, Mongolia, Kalmykia, and other regions. Goals. The paper introduces into scientific discourse texts thereof in Chinese, Tibetan, and Mongolian. The analysis of the practices reveals values, logic, symbols, and structural patterns inherent to traditional societies. Materials. The article examines a number of sources, namely: 1) a Chinese text published in Hohhot (Inner Mongolia, PRC), 2) a Tibetan text posted on the website of Buddhist Digital Resource Center, 3) a Beijing xylograph of one Mongolian text stored at the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts of the RAS (St. Petersburg, Russia). The latter was checked against another copy of the Beijing xylograph submitted by Demberel Sükhee, a lecturer at the National University of Mongolia (Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies). Results. The article analyzes the traditional oil lamp snuff divination method and provides a comparative study of texts in three different languages, translating and transliterating the employed sources.
Practical Strategies for Improving Men’s Health: Maximizing the Patient-Provider Encounter
Authors: Leone James E. , Rovito Michael J. , Gray Kimberly A. , Mallo Ryan 
Published: February 2021

An inconsistent or lack of access to a healthcare provider (HCP) can lead to advanced morbidity and is an oft-cited barrier to advancing health, particularly in the U.S. Review of select literature consistently suggests men are far less likely to engage within the healthcare system, which is particularly problematic relating to preventive service access. As many health conditions are preventable and/or treatable in earlier stages, delay in screening and treatment often leads to long-term adverse health outcomes. Lack of early and frequent preventive healthcare may even be perceived as “normative” where poorer health outcomes in males are expected. Some evidence demonstrates a clear connection that seeking help via healthcare runs contrary to masculinity and dominant masculine principles, such as being strong/sturdy, working through pain, avoiding weakness, and/or perceptions of femininity, among other psychosocial phenomena. Changing healthcare “culture” concerning the care of males (i.e., gender-sensitive care) may provide a salient avenue to encourage more consistent and preventive contact, or “touch points,” in the patient-provider dynamic. There is a need to understand how social norms and practices in healthcare and medical settings can be effectively leveraged to address life-long male health outcomes versus focusing on late(r)-stage palliative care. The purpose of this article is to advance dialogue concerning practical considerations, such as resources (e.g. time, money) and methods (e.g., practitioners considering whether men respond best to immediate efforts to establish rapport versus a traditional power-based dynamic during the medical interaction) to inform gender-sensitive touchpoints in the healthcare of men. Location and types of facilities where men are willing to seek care (preventative or palliative) also need to be considered in a holistic, gendersensitive patient-provider healthcare model. Implications, policies, and evidence-based practical strategies for leveraging medical education, prevention programming, proper and improper recognition, and health management, and long-term treatment are presented and discussed with the practitioner in mind. Although there is a U.S.-focus with our proposed strategies, we aim to provide a more global context with our future work on this topic.

Published: February 2021

Issue addressed Currently, in Australia, male health outcomes are poorer than that of females, with males experiencing a lower life expectancy, accounting for 62% of the premature deaths. Exploring male-specific health promotional material in health facility waiting rooms provides an opportunity to examine available health information. There are few studies on health-related education for patients, families and carers in general practitioner (GP) waiting rooms, and no studies on male-specific health material content in waiting rooms. Methods This prospective observational study audited all printed health promotional materials in all health facility waiting rooms within a single local government area. A total of 24 sites were surveyed, which included general practice centres, community health centres and hospitals. The surveyed health literature included posters, brochures and booklets. Results There were 1143 health materials audited across the sites. Of these, 3.15% (n = 36) were male-specific literature, 15.31% (n = 175) were female-specific health literature and 81.54% (n = 932) were neutral/others. Overwhelmingly, the audited health literature evidenced a 5:1 ratio favouring female-specific literature versus male-specific literature. Conclusions This research highlighted that despite the known outcomes of lower male life expectancy and higher burden of disease, male-specific literature was observed to be significantly under-represented within the audited health facility waiting room spaces. There remains potential for health clinicians to provide targeted male health education and thereby improve male health literacy.

Original Regional Revenue and other legitimate income have a negative and significant effect while the balance fund does not have a significant effect on the poverty level of regencies/cities in Jambi Province.
On the issue of imposing restrictions on budgetary (autonomous) institutions that carry out purchases in order to fulfill state (municipal) tasks
Authors: Fedoseeva Kristina 
Published: February 2021

The subject of the research in this article is the restrictions provided for by the draft law submitted to the State Duma of the Russian Federation in relation to budgetary (autonomous) institutions engaged in procurement for the purpose of fulfilling state (municipal) tasks. The purpose of the study is to analyze these restrictions in the context of the reform carried out in relation to budgetary (autonomous) institutions aimed at increasing their economic independence. The article makes a scientific assessment of the legal possibilities of attracting co-executors for state and non-state organizations in the process of rendering state (municipal) services in connection with the adoption of Federal Law No. 189-FZ of July 13, 2020 "On State (Municipal) social order for the provision of state (municipal) services in the social sphere". The issue of the organization of law enforcement in the studied area, namely the use of the budget classification tool of the Russian Federation and other methods of identification of purchases, is considered. The author used such methods as comparison, generalization, system analysis, modeling and deduction. В A special contribution of the author to the study of this topic is the formulation of general criteria that would enable institutions to attract performers (contractors) to perform works (provide services) in order to fulfill a state (municipal) task if the draft law under consideration is adopted. The main conclusion of this study is the need to bring to uniformity the regulatory regulation of the right to conduct procurement for the provision of public (municipal) services by both public and private organizations. This is due to the introduction of budgetary (autonomous) institutions into the competitive market along with other non-governmental organizations and giving them a certain economic freedom as a result of the initiated reform.

Aim.Assessment of the possibility to use ECG-telemetry in order to increase the efficiency of cardiotoxic effect diagnosis in cancer patients with chemotherapy.
Material and methods.Remote dynamic monitoring for 6 months was carried out in 31 cardio-oncological patients (in 17 prostate cancer (PC), in 14 breast cancer (BC), mean age was 53.6 (50.1; 56.8) years and 48.3 (38.8; 57.1) years, respectively; FC NYHA IIII; left ventricular ejection fraction 47.4% (40.2; 57.3) and 43.2% (39.7; 58.9), respectively; Mini-Mental State Examination from 30 to 24 points 27.6 (25.4; 29,1) and 28.2 (25.1; 28.8), respectively. ECG-telemetry was performed according to the principle of auto-translation using individual ECG recorders, mobile devices and the ECG Dongle Internet application (Nordavind-Dubna, Russia). Storage, analysis of information and telemedicine consultation was perfomed with the CardioСloud asynchronous tele-cardiological platform. ECG was registered with a frequency of at least 5 times/day and additionally repeatedly in the presence of symptoms and patient desires, duration 1020 minutes.
Results.Previously undocumented ECG changes were remotely recorded in patients for 6 months of follow-up: in 87.0% of patients sinus tachycardia, against which ventricular extrasystole of various gradations (32.3%), supraventricular extrasystole (22.6%), transient tachy-dependent blockade of the bundle of His legs were recorded (9.7%). In 64.7% of PC patients and in 42.8% of BC patients rhythm disturbances were detected in combination with depression of theSTsegment. Paroxysms of atrial fibrillation were reported in 17.6% of PC patients and in 14.3% BC patients. In 35.5% of patients the detected ECG changes were asymptomatic.
Conclusion.Remote dynamic monitoring in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy involving ECG recording scheme (5 times/day, 1020 min) with ECG telemetry is an effective and unexpensive method for detecting ECG changes in the phenomenon of cardiotoxicity.

Published: February 2021

The paper describes the investigation of matrix metalloproteinase type 3 (MMP-3) -1171 5A/6A gene polymorphic alleles variants (rs35068180) in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. A allele and 6А6А genotype of MMP-3 -1171 5A/6A gene (rs35068180) were determined as new genetic predictors of dilated cardiomyopathy development.
Aim. To study the association of polymorphism -1171 5A/ of the MMP-3 gene with dilated cardiomyopathy of various origins.
Material and methods. The main study group comprised 221 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) of different origin. Their average age was 55.309.69 years. Among them there were 111 persons with DCM of ischemic origin, including 99 (89.2%) men and 12 (10.8%) women. The average age of the subjects with DCM was 51.739.74 years, the age of the male subgroup was 51.008.96 years, and the age of the female subgroup was 57.753.71 years. A total of 110 patients with idiopathic cardiomyopathy were included in the study. Among 221 patients, 110 persons did not demonstrated idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy as the cause of myocardium dilation. This group comprised 100 (91.5%) male patients and 10 (8.5%) female patients. The control group of subjects (221 persons) was represented by healthy people without diseases of the cardiovascular system. The average age of control subjects was 53.64.8 years. We examined all patients in the main group using routine laboratory and instrumental methods, as well as coronary angiography. If myocarditis was suspected, we did an MRI of the heart. Genotyping of polymorphism -1171 5A/6A (rs35068180) of the MMP-3 gene was performed using PCR.
Results. Among patients of the main group with dilated myocardial remodeling of various Genesis, the allele was documented in 65.8% of cases against 59.3% among the control group, p=0.044. The homozygous genotype of the MMP-3 gene in patients of the main group was verified in 42.1% of patients against 32.6% of cases in relatively healthy individuals (p=0.099).
Conclusion. We have proved the predominance of 6A allele and 6А6А genotype of the MMP-3 gene in the group of patients with DCM. It seems that it is homozygous 6A allele that causes a decrease in the activity of the transcription process and change in the level of stromelysin in arterial walls. This contributes to the activation of type 1 procollagenase, extracellular matrix deposition and cardiac muscle remodeling.
Concepciones docentes sobre la interculturalidad en la Nueva Escuela Mexicana
Authors: Tiburcio Celestina , Jiménez Lobatos Violeta Denis 
Published: February 2021

Las políticas educativas poseen rasgos según sea el gobierno que las promueva. Tal es el caso en México de la implementación de la Nueva Escuela Mexicana (NEM) que, fundamentada en humanismo social, busca impactar en los espacios educativos y renovar las prácticas. Pero, después de una década de reformas donde imperaron enfoques sobre educación bicultural, intercultural e inclusiva, los profesores vuelven a ser receptores de discursos que deben apropiar y retomar en sus prácticas didácticas. Por ello, esta investigación analiza las concepciones sobre interculturalidad de seis profesoras de nivel básico (preescolar, primaria y secundaria), a través de una metodología cualitativa y retomando algunos rasgos de la autoetnografía. Se concluye que conceptualizar y trabajar didácticamente la diversidad, desde el enfoque intercultural, aún requiere trascender de perspectivas relacional o funcional (Walsh, 2011) para llegar a una visión crítica que dialogue con los principios de la NEM.
