Authors: Pitria Ratna Kamila , Aisy Diamantin Rohadatul , Anggraeni R. R. Tini 
Published: November 2024

Research Originality: Funds misallocation comitted by ACT identified as fraud and the non-transparent financial that reported in online mass online media in terms of negative reporting. This influence has never been studied on the loyalty of zakat payer (muzakki) of paying Zakat, Infaq, and Shadaqah (ZIS) in Islamic philanthropy institutions (LAZ) admidst related to negative reporting of ACT.Research Objectives: This research analyze the impact of transparency, fraud management and the cases reporting of ACT on public trust in paying zakat, infaq, shadaqah in other Islamic philanthropy institutions.Research Methods: This research setted in the Bogor City among 100 respondents of muzakki in the year 2023 and 2024. Then, multiple linear regression were involved to analyze the impact of independent variables on dependent variable.Empirical Results: The results reveal that being transparent and avoiding fraud cases will significantly increase public trust in paying ZIS at LAZ institutions. Meanwhile, coverage of the ACT cases had no impact on the loyalty of muzakki who were also well-educated.Implications: LAZ are encouraged to provide information related to ZIS funds management, so that trust of the muzakki will increase. Besides, LAZ also needs to have a strong internal control system to enforce transparency in financial reporting, and effective monitoring mechanisms to prevent fraud.JEL Classification: G23, G30, Z12

Published: November 2024

The common redstart Phoenicurus phoenicurus (Passeriformes, Muscicapidae) is one the most appealing insect-eating birds living in parks, gardens, and other cultured landscapes of Europe, Central and Western Asia, and Northern Africa. We analyzed the nests of Ph. phoenicurus after the chicks had flown away. Throughout the reproductive period, in the pine forests of Northeastern Ukraine, those nests contained 23 species of arthropods, belonging to 15 families, 9 orders. The analysis of the distribution of arthropods by ecological groups revealed a correlation between the number of arthropods and parameters of breeding success and air temperature in the national nature parks. To attract Ph. phoenicurus to the pine forests of the region, we used standard-sized artificial nests made of wooden sections. The results of the study demonstrated a high level of biodiversity of nidicolous arthropods in the nests of Ph. phoenicurus in the pine forests in 2019–2023. The largest share of nidicolous invertebrates among the ecological groups was comprised of “nourishment for chicks”. A large portion of arthropods in the nest of Ph. phoenicurus was polyphages. The results provide a better understandanding of the dynamics of invertebrates’ populations in artificial nests occupied by Ph. phoenicurus, their effect on the breeding successfulness of this species, and also other significant factors. This is important for designing effective strategies of preserving the populations of this species in the region of research. Further research is needed to specify the factors influencing the distribution of the bird and species composition of arthropods in its nests in other types of ecosystems within the bird’s range.

Authors: Vdovichenko Polina 
Published: November 2024

Introduction: the relevance of the topic is related to the emergence of new electronic forms of expression of will when making transactions, which has necessitated ensuring their security in the digital environment. The purpose of the study is to solve the problems of the form of expression of will of parties to civil transactions, including transactions concluded in electronic form by means of information and communication systems. Methods: in preparing the study, the dialectical, logical, and comparative law methods were used, which made it possible to analyze various approaches to classifying forms of expression of will, including oral, written, and other forms, and their legal significance in the context of current legislation. Results: the paper analyzes various forms of expression of will that are important for the validity and enforceability of transactions. The doctrine and judicial practice related to the digitalization of the expression of will have been studied. The problem of ensuring the protection of the rights of parties to electronic transactions related to the identification and authentication of the parties in the digital environment is analyzed. The ways to improve the regulatory framework to take into account the development of digital technologies and ensure the protection of the rights of parties to transactions are proposed. The scope of the results: the approaches outlined in the study to solving the problems of expression of will in the digital environment can become the basis for improving the current civil law legislation; they can serve as the basis for further scientific research in this area; and they can improve law enforcement practice. Conclusions: the proposals related to solving the problems of identification and authentication when entering into the transaction are substantiated. It is proposed to use blockchain technology to solve the problem of confidential data security on the one hand and transparency on the other. The need to fix in the law the methods of electronic transmission of legally significant messages is justified.
The Ways to Protect Family Values Under the Family Law Legislation of the Russian Federation
Authors: Baturina Natalia , Kotelnikov Nikolay 
Published: November 2024

Introduction: the paper presents the results of a comprehensive analysis of the ways provided for by family law legislation to protect family values. The authors of the paper believe that in conditions of strong socio-cultural pressure on Russian society from the globalist movement, the state should develop legal mechanisms that prevent the spread of norms of behavior and pseudo-family values that are alien to domestic society. Exploring the approaches existing in legal science to understanding the category of “family values,” the authors propose to significantly expand the content of this category. The authors of the paper systematize the existing legal ways of protecting family values. Purpose: to determine the legal content of the concept of “family values,” to systematize the ways to protect family values, and to evaluate their effectiveness. Methods: the main research methods used in the work are dialectical and sociological methods in jurisprudence, providing a comprehensive and complete study of legal ways to protect family values. Results: the authors have investigated the problems of using legal methods to protect traditional family values in Russian society. Conclusions: as a result of the study, the authors propose the inclusion of a number of prohibitions in the content of family values, such as the inadmissibility of marriage between persons of the same sex, including their actual cohabitation; the inadmissibility of sex change; and the inadmissibility of fictitiousness in the occurrence or termination of family relations. Based on the results of the study, it was found that modern family law in the Russian Federation allows for preserving and protecting traditional values, as well as countering the expansion of family relations alien to Russian society.

Authors: Davtyan-Davydova Darya 
Published: November 2024

Introduction: the paper deals with the problem of the legal regulation of the surrogacy contract. The complex nature is emphasized, and the main approaches to determining the legal nature, subject, and object of such a contract are highlighted. Particular attention is paid to the lack of consensus on the legal nature of such a contract, its legal definition, and the legally established rights, obligations, and responsibilities of the parties for breach of obligations. A comparative law analysis of Russian and foreign legislation is carried out. Purpose: to conduct a conceptual analysis of the legislation of both the Russian Federation and neighboring countries in the field of regulation of surrogacy contracts and to study the legal nature of the surrogacy contract. For this purpose, the provisions of the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Republic of Belarus are considered; in addition, modern approaches to determining the legal nature of the surrogacy contract are studied. In the course of composing this work, a variety of methods were employed, including general scientific approaches such as analysis and synthesis of legal doctrines and legislative norms, as well as special legal methods such as comparative legal analysis and formal legal analysis. Results: as the regulation of the surrogacy contract in the legislation of the Russian Federation is not sufficiently developed, it creates legal gaps. The conclusion is made about the civil legal nature of the surrogacy contract.

Background. Tea mistletoe (Scurrula atropurpurea (Blume)) and mango mistletoe (Dendrophthoe pentandra) have been known as a potential medicine for several diseases.Objective: to investigate the effect of the combination of methanolic extract Scurrula atropurpurea (Blume) and Dendrophthoe pentandra (MESA-DP) on rat liver function and structure using serological and histopathological analysis.Material and methods. This study was experimental during 28 days using 20 rats divided into four groups (Group 1 as a control, while Groups 2, 3, and 4 were given MESA-DP at doses 250, 500, and 1,000 mg/kg of body weight, respectively). The liver histopathological structure was observed using hematoxylin-eosin staining. The liver function assessment included total bilirubin, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT), serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT), total protein, albumin, globulin, cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels. Data were analyzed using a one-way ANOVA analysis (ANalysis Of VAriance) and performed via SPSS Statistics 17.0 (IBM, USA).Results. The administration of MESA-DP did not show significant differences at all doses for the liver rat function in total bilirubin, SGOT, SGPT, albumin, cholesterol and triglycerides (p>0.05), while globulin, total protein, HDL and LDL showed significant results (p<0.05). The liver histopathological structure showed the number of pyknotic, karyorrhectic and karyolytic cells in rats after MESA-DP administration compared to controls, which grew with increasing dose.Conclusion. The liver function in rats after being exposed to MESA-DP was not affected in terms of total bilirubin, SGOT, SGPT, albumin, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. However, using MESA-DP increased the necrotic liver cells. It may be beneficial for the liver health of experimental animals taking into account the correct dosage.

Published: November 2024

Background. As new high-tech methods of treatment and diagnostics are introduced into the basic compulsory health insurance program, the focus on creating separate regional healthcare systems is becoming less effective. The creation of the necessary infrastructure requires disproportionately large investments, while the needs of the population in most regions do not provide adequate loading of newly created facilities. A promising solution to these problems is the centralization of delivering certain types of medical care (MC) on the basis of interregional medical centers.Objective: development of approaches to identifying medical interventions that are appropriate to provide in specialized interregional centers.Material and methods. The criteria for selection of medical interventions including MC profiles and diagnosis-related groups (DRGs) of diseases, which potentially require centralization were developed. On the basis of statistical analysis, data on specialized MC provided in inpatient settings by “Pediatric surgery” and “Traumatology and orthopedics” profiles were analyzed to identify regions with low and high levels of hospitalizations in order to determine the need for centralization or the creation of interregional centers.Results. The analysis enabled to identify the territorial subjects of the Russian Federation (RF) where the issue of MC centralization would be relevant to increase its availability to the insured population in the territory of certain subject. Besides, the study identified regions, in which the number of hospitalizations significantly exceeded the average indicators in the RF. It is advisable to create interregional MC centers on the basis of such subjects.Conclusion. The presented analysis of individual profiles and DRGs across the territorial subjects of the RF showed the objective differences in the extent of provided MC. The proposed methodology for determining DRGs and identifying subjects of the RF that have a surplus or deficit in the provision of MC can form the basis for approaches to identifying “MC centralization points”.

Published: November 2024

Breast cancer (BC) has long held a leading position in oncology disease pattern among global female population. Statistics data show that BC metastasis to lung tissue accounts for 21–32 % of all distant metastasis cases. Pulmonary metastases usually occur within 5 years after initial BC diagnosis, more often affecting peripheral lung parts, which explains the difficulty for their differential diagnosis. In addition, they profoundly impact on disease course and patient survival rate, so that each case of combined pathology such as BC and lung solid neoplasm is of interest in terms of clinicopathologic features as well as the diagnostic approach, with subsequent choice of surgical treatment tactics. Obviously, a therapeutic strategy in such cases is based on knowing primary tumor morphological structure and verifying metastatic process. However, in case of small sized pulmonary focus, it is difficult to identify a modality of ongoing process. Currently, no therapeutic and diagnostic tactics in such cases have been developed in detail. Assessing the clinical case of a combined ВС and a single small-sized focal lung mass, we propose an effective diagnostics and treatment scheme.

Published: November 2024

Introduction. Endometriosis is one of the common diseases with poorly elucidated underlying nature and pathogenetic mechanisms. Clinical trials suggest that women suffering from it have hemostasis disorders. However, the severity of relevant changes and their origin remain debated.Aim: to study the dynamics of hemostasis system parameters in patients underwent surgical treatment of external genital endometriosis (EGE).Materials and Methods. A total of 120 women were enrolled into the prospective interventional comparative controlled study: 40 patients with EGE scheduled for surgical treatment (main group), 40 patients with other benign gynecological diseases requiring surgical intervention (comparison group), and 40 apparently healthy women (control group). Нemostasis system status was assessed based on the results of 3 visits during 3 month-follow-up by assessing the following biomarkers: metalloproteinase ADAMTS-13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13), von Willebrand factor (vWF), D-dimer, protein C, antithrombin III (AT-III), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and Рarus-test values.Results. Prior to surgery, among EGE women a subclinical but significant increase in procoagulant biomarkers was observed compared to other groups: vWF – 1.24 [1.17–1.35] U/ml, D-dimer – 173.5 [73.5–221.23] ng/ml. Evaluation of the remaining parameters showed no clinical significance of the observed changes. The endometriosis-related surgical intervention was accompanied by increase in specific procoagulant factors a week post-treatment apparently associated with surgical manipulations. However, 3 months later, hemostasis system status partially normalized as revealed by lower biomarkers examined, which in some cases were significantly decreased compared to those observed before surgery. At the same time, differences between the study groups remained statistically significant.Conclusion. Patients with EGE were noted to have a subclinical risk of thrombogenesis. Upon this, surgical treatment and rehabilitation during recovery period allowed to improve overall state of the hemostasis system, thereby reducing a thrombogenesis risk.
A prospective randomized comparative study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of topical quick penetrating solution (QPS) of Heparin (1000 IU/ml) versus Heparin gel (200 IU/ml) in prevention of intravenous cannula related thrombophlebitis in post operative onco surgical intensive care unit (ICU) patients

Intravenous cannulation usage is a vital component for the patient admitted at hospitals and is known to cause thrombophlebitis in upto 70% of patients so this study is needed to evaluate profile of topical quick penetrating solution of Heparin and compare it with Heparin gel in prevention of thrombophlebitis in post operative onco-surgery patients admitted in intensive care unit (ICU) in terms of safety and effectiveness. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of topical quick penetrating solution of Heparin and compare it with Heparin gel in prevention of thrombophlebitis in post operative onco-surgery patients admitted in intensive care unit (ICU). A prospective, randomized, parallel group, comparative, single centre, clinical study. A total 100 patients undergoing intravenous cannulation that has been planned to remain in situ for at least 72 hours indoor period were enrolled. Patients were randomized in Group A (Heparin Topical solution) vs Group B (Heparin gel). Investigational product was applied on skin around dressing covering intravenous cannulation site approximately every 8 hours for the treatment period of 72 hours. Patients were evaluated for incidences of infusion phlebitis, first signs of phlebitis and treatment emergent application site reactions and were statistically analysed for statistical significance, p - value below 0.05 levels was considered to be significant. Incidences of infusion phlebitis Grade 2 was found to be higher in “heparin gel group” than in “Topical Heparin Group” (17 vs 7 patients, p=0.0192). Incidences of first sign of phlebitis grade 1 was found to be higher in “heparin gel group” than in “Topical Heparin Group” (24 vs 10 patients, p=0.003123). Mean time to develop Grade I and Grade II phlebitis was comparable and no adverse effects were reported in either group. Heparin QPS was more effective in the prevention of infusion-associated phlebitis with similar safety profile as heparin gel.

Post operative pain management plays a vital role in ensuring optimal patient recovery and satisfaction, particularly in lower limb surgery where pain can significantly impede mobility and rehabilitation. Epidural anaesthesia provides targeted analgesia with lesser complications. tramadol and nalbuphine are two frequently used opioids for epidural analgesia to reduce postoperative pain. This study aims to compare the post-operative analgesic efficacy of epidural nalbuphine versus epidural tramadol as adjuvant with inj. bupivacaine 0.125% in lower limb orthopedics surgery.This study aimed to compare the post-operative analgesic efficacy of epidural nalbuphine versus epidural tramadol as an adjuvant with inj. bupivacaine 0.125% in lower limb orthopaedic surgery. The primary objectives were the duration and quality of analgesia. Secondary objectives included an assessment of postoperative hemodynamic changes, sedation levels and associated side effects.60 patients of ASA I and II aged between 18-60 years were randomized into two groups with 30 patients each. Group N received epidural 0.125% bupivacaine (9ml) with 10 mg nalbuphine (1ml) total 10 ml. Group T received epidural 0.125% bupivacaine (9ml) with 50mg tramadol (1 ml) total 10 ml. The drugs were administered when patient complained of pain (i.e. VAS &#62;=4).It was observed that both the groups were found to have similar demographics and hemodynamic parameters. Epidural nalbuphine had faster onset of analgesia (8.4 ±0.69 mins v/s 10.7 ±0.68 mins), longer duration of postoperative analgesia (11.2 ±0.84 hours v/s 9.2 ±1.42 hours) and better quality of analgesia as compared to tramadol as an epidural adjuvant.Nalbuphine 10 mg when added as an adjuvant to 0.125% bupivacaine epidurally provided a faster onset, better quality and longer duration of postoperative pain relief as compared to Tramadol 50 mg.

Post-operative pain after any shoulder surgery is very common. Pain management after shoulder surgeries pose a challenge to anesthesiologists. The study aims to assess the effect of dexamethasone as an adjuvant to 0.5% ropivacaine in ultrasound guided single shot interscalene brachial plexus block in elective shoulder surgeries.The prospective randomized comparative study was conducted at the Department of Anaesthesiology, Apollo Hospitals, Chennai, from March 2018 to December 2019. The study involved 52 patients scheduled for elective shoulder surgeries, who were randomly assigned to two groups: one receiving 0.5% ropivacaine alone and the other receiving 0.5% ropivacaine with dexamethasone, administered via ultrasound-guided interscalene brachial plexus block. Patient's perception of pain was assessed using VAS score (0-10).The mean duration of analgesia was significantly longer in the ropivacaine with dexamethasone group (909.5 ± 238.122 minutes) compared to the ropivacaine alone group (509.31 ± 102.771 minutes), with a mean difference of 400.192 minutes. Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores for pain were comparable between the groups in the early postoperative period but were significantly lower in the dexamethasone group at 8, 10, and 12 hours post-surgery, indicating better pain control. The dexamethasone group also required significantly fewer additional analgesics.The study concluded that the addition of dexamethasone to ropivacaine for interscalene brachial plexus block prolongs the duration of analgesia and reduces post-operative pain, without significant complications. The use of dexamethasone as an adjuvant to local anesthetics for nerve blocks is recommended due to its safety profile, cost-effectiveness, and improved quality of pain relief.
