SOCIAL IDENTITY: CAUSES OF INITIATION AND HISTORICAL RETROSPECTIVE
Authors: SEDYKH O. G. 
Published: July 2018

Analyzing the background and conceptual basis of social dependency, the article notes that the phenomenon of «social dependency» has a long history and has received the greatest development in the period of prosperity of economic opportunities of the state. For the national history it was typical for the period of development of the «paternalistic» model of social security. The article presents theoretical and applied approaches to the formulation of the concepts of «social dependency» and «social parasitism», the differences between them. The categories of the population most exposed to social dependency and parasitism are identified. Social dependency is analyzed in the article as a structural phenomenon, a specific way of life, or such social behavior of an individual in which he consciously (deliberately) seek to secure an acceptable standard of living in society at the expense of the same society. The objective causes of this negative phenomenon of social society are systematized. The methods of studying this phenomenon are shown and the techniques that contribute to the reduction of dependency are characterized. Among the quantitative methods, such as changes in the value of the subsistence minimum, control over the target expenditure of funds. Qualitative methods are stimulating, actively introduced in the field of labor. The article systematizes management mechanisms that can reduce this undesirable anti-social process.
PACIFIC RUSSIA IN THE “GREATER EURASIA” AT THE BEGINNING OF XXI CENTURY: CHALLENGES AND RESPONDS
Authors: LARIN V. L. 
Published: July 2018

The article examines main factors that determine the pace, nature and direction of everyday life and economic development of Pacific Russia in the early 21st century. The author identifies and analyzes fundamental nature and impact of three, in his opinion, basic challenges, the answers to which determine Russian government policy towards this region: the threat of its loss under the influence of internal and external factors; peripheral status and lagging development based on its specialization in the raw materials extraction; modern Eurasian integration projects of Moscow, Beijing and Seoul. The first challenge was purely speculative but it allowed Kremlin to mobilize the country's political and business elites to strengthen Pacific vector of Russian policy and support Russia Far East development. In this case, the goal of this development was not to overcome the peripheral status and raw specialization of the region, but to utilize its potential more effectively in the interests of central government. The results were contradictory from the point of view of both domestic and foreign policies. Such outcome has prompted central government to create new instruments and institutions for implementation of his geopolitical and economic projects on the Pacific. The closure of an active phase of "Russia's integration into the APR", Kremlin promotion of the "Big Eurasia" concept as well as the Chinese "Belt and Road" initiative being launched alongside the Russian project, in the aggregate reserve for Pacific Russia a place "in the back" of the Eurasian integration, tightly fixing for her the status of a double - European and Asian - periphery.
THE SARATOV VOLGA REGION AND THE FAR EAST: THREE CENTURIES OF RELATIONS
Authors: PETROVICH V. G. , SAMSONOV S. I. 
Published: July 2018

The article deals with the dynamics of the development of the Far East with the help of labor migration in the period from the 1860s to the present day. The authors analyze the intensity of migration flows, the reasons for their decline or increase, talk about new settlements founded by immigrants from the Saratov Volga region in the Amur and Primorye regions of the Russian Empire, and trace the fate of these settlements to this day. The authors identify the reasons for the lack of support for the resettlement movement in the Russian Empire by the state until the beginning of the twentieth century, and the reasons that prompted the government to develop an effective resettlement program since 1906. Attention is paid to the participation of Saratov in the Russian-Japanese war in the Far East. The extensive statistical material contained in the official publications following the results of the all-Russian population censuses of 1897, 2002 and 2010 is used. Internet sources, websites of public organizations, official state bodies, mass media are attracted. The migration policy of P.A. Stolypin, Prime Minister of Imperial Russia and former Saratov Governor- General is analyzed. In comparison with it, the project "far Eastern hectare" is considered, which the modern Russian government considers as the main tool for the inflow of population to the vast far Eastern territories. The authors prove the ineffectiveness of the project due to the small amount of allocated land, their unsuitability for agriculture or other socially significant activities, remoteness from communications, the lack of benefits for immigrants on such a scale as it was a century ago. The conclusion to which the researchers come: only taking into account the experience of generations of Russians in the development of the Far East, the traditional connection of the regions of Russia, proved by the example of the Saratov Volga region, providing immigrants with all the necessary and benefits no worse than a century ago, it is possible to ensure the priority development of the Far East.

The research was conducted to evaluate the performance of Community Learning Activities Center (CLAC) as an educational institution in empowering community. The research which is an evaluative study using the Stakes‘s evaluation model, took place at CLACs in Bantul, Yogyakarta Province. The findings show, firstly, each function of the CLACs has been put into practices. However, the implementation is not done effectively based on the criteria. It indicates that the performance is not organized professionally. Secondly, the CLACs have been able to produce meaningful learning outcomes such as creating positive behavior changes of targeted individuals or communities. However, the CLACs do not assign a greater impact on broader and multidimensional context of community empowerment.. Thirdly, there are threats that give negative influences on the implementation of the CLACs in terms of structural, interactional, and cultural aspects resulted from both internal and external environment of the CLAC institution. Therefore, bases on the findings, in the future the development of the CLACs should be planned and oriented to create the community toward more developed and comprehensive aspects of lives accompanied with the continuous development of strong commitment from stakeholders.
Nonoperative Treatments for Knee Osteoarthritis: An Evaluation of Treatment Characteristics and the Intra-Articular Placebo Effect

Published: July 2018

Background:
Guidelines recommending various nonoperative treatments for patients with knee osteoarthritis remain inconsistent. Much of this controversy relates to what constitutes a clinically important effect. The purposes of the present study were to compare treatment effect sizes from recent meta-analyses evaluating pharmacological or medical device interventions for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis and to further assess the clinical impact that the intra-articular placebo effect may have on intra-articular injection therapies.

Methods:
A search of PubMed, MEDLINE, and Embase from the inception date of each database through May 30, 2017 was conducted for all articles involving meta-analyses of pharmacological or medical device knee osteoarthritis treatments compared with controls. Two reviewers independently screened articles for eligibility and extracted data for analysis. We present effect estimates on a standardized mean difference (SMD) scale and compare them all against a threshold for clinical importance of 0.50 standard deviation (SD) unit.

Results:
Ten meta-analyses (sample size range, 110 to 39,814) providing a total of 19 different effect sizes for pain were included in this review. SMD estimates ranged from 0.08 to 0.79 for various electrical modalities, orthotic devices, topical and oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), dietary supplements, and intra-articular injection therapies. Seventeen treatments demonstrated significant improvements in terms of pain when patients who had received treatment were compared with controls. After accounting for the intra-articular placebo effect, the greatest effect estimates were those of intra-articular platelet-rich plasma and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid. When these were judged according to our threshold for clinical importance, high molecular weight intra-articular hyaluronic acid was found to have the most precise effect estimate that surpassed this threshold. Platelet-rich plasma was found to provide the greatest point estimate of the treatment effect, but the precision around this estimate had the largest amount of uncertainty across all treatments.

Conclusions:
While many nonoperative treatments demonstrated significant improvements in pain, we found the greatest effect estimates for intra-articular treatments. While platelet-rich plasma provided the greatest point estimate of the treatment effect, variability among studies suggests that future research into optimal formulations is required. The strongest current evidence supports clinically important and significant treatment effects with intra-articular hyaluronic acid formulations between 1,500 and >6,000 kDa.

The article presents the results of alpha, gamma spectrometric analyzes of samples, dosimetry, radon monitoring of the estimated areas in the Istiklol city. It has been established that the specific activity of radionuclides for uranium and radium in the tailing materials are in the range: 1405 – 2140, 5935 – 9843 Bq / kg, respectively. Based on the results of the monitoring of gamma radiation and radon volume activity at Istiklol city sites, it has been established that gamma radiation ambient equivalent dose rate varies from 0.52 to 1.78 μSv / h, and radon volume activity in air ranges from 20 and 45 Bq / m3. It is shown that the radon concentration in the air above the surface of tailings is not high. However, the exhalation of radon from the soil surface of all the tailings dumps examined is above the standard (1 Bq / (m2·s). The results of measurements of radon volume activity in the air of residential buildings and facilities located on the territory of Istiklol city have shown that the value of radon volume activity is within the limits of 44 – 195 Bq / m3. A high value of radon volume activity is noted in the former dilapidated plant (1319 Bq / m3). Gamma and alpha spectrometric studies revealed that the average values of the activity concentration of uranium and radium in the soils for tailings and the pit are for 234U – 65365 Bq / kg, for 238U – 50295 Bq / kg, and for 226Ra – 3800 Bq / kg. To estimate the doses of population irradiation via the water pathway were taken the average values of the volumetric activity of 234U, 238U, 226Ra in the waters. Maximum values of volumetric activity of radionuclides were observed in samples of drainage water, Bq / m3: 234U – 530000, 238U – 390000, 226Ra – 185. To calculate the contributions of various radiation factors to an additional annual dose of irradiation, the population was divided into four hypothetical groups. The time duration of stay of various hypothetical population groups in the areas of potential irradiation, radiation dose due to water use from contaminated water sources and additional factors in Istiklol were taken into account.The main contributor to the additional radiation dose received by hypothetical population groups is external irradiation during the stay on the territory of the FBR and tailing dumps, and internal irradiation due to the use of contaminated water.
