Mikhail Mikhailovich Speransky and the Development of Russian Legal Statehood in the 21st Century
Authors: Sinyukov V. N. , Sinyukov S. V. 
Published: October 2024

The paper is devoted to the 250th anniversary of the outstanding statesman of Russia Mikhail Mikhailovich Speransky. The authors set the task in a short essay to combine the analysis of state, legal and stylistic aspects of the reformer’s activities. A special feature of the research methodology is the combination of studying the essence and results of Speransky’s program of state reforms with the ideological struggle around liberal and conservative alternatives to the development of Russia; an attempt at ideological identification of Russian statehood and the rule of law of the 19th century. The conclusion is made about the significant role of Speransky in the formation of the foundations of Russian constitutionalism, in the development of conceptual ideas about the constitutional order of the activities of the highest state authorities. The paper examines Speransky’s key approaches to the systematization of Russian law. It is concluded that at the beginning of the 19th century Russian legal architecture has been identified based on the historical experience of the Russian incorporation of the 16th–17th centuries. The priority way of its development means continuous incorporation, the continuous implementation of new norms unfolding over time into the fundamental structural matrix. Speransky showed that law is a unity of a suprasystem nature that goes far beyond the limits of individual normative complexes. The paper elucidates the tasks of a new stage in the development of modern Russian legislation in the context of systematization of Russian law in the first half of the 19th century. It is concluded that the nature of the Russian legal form means legal constructivism that allows creating and regulating social relations of a complex nature rather than universalism of sectoral codifications. The analysis of the legal aspects of Speransky’s state activity is carried out in close connection with the characteristic style of his analytical work. It is concluded that Speransky acted as a statesman of a new type, whose personality was commensurate with the challenges and trends of the development of Russian statehood in Modern times.
Lack of Consent to Sexual Intercourse and the Fault of the Rape Survivor under U.S. Criminal Law
Authors: Nagornaya I. I. 
Published: October 2024

The greatest attention to the lack of consent to sexual intercourse as a mandatory feature of rape is paid under the US criminal law. This issue is closely related to the main changes in US state legislation that have occurred as a result of a departure from the traditional understanding of rape as a crime. There are three approaches to understanding the term «consent» in doctrine and legislation, namely, «no means no», «yes means yes» and a negotiation model. Each model imposes features on the process of establishing the fault of the subject and the rapist’s possible error in consent. Difficulties arise when the subject and the victim are intoxicated. Based on the experience of the United States, recommendations are formulated that are useful for the Russian legislator and law enforcement officer. It is not necessary to consolidate any model of consent to sexual intercourse in the criminal law, as well as to abandon signs of the use of violence, the threat of its use or the use of the helpless state of the victim. It is required to distinguish harassment and overcoming the will of the victim, to assess the silence of the victim, victim’s words and actions, finding out whether the victim’s will was distorted. A woman has the right to withdraw her consent after sexual intercourse starts, in which case, if there are other signs of a crime, the continuation of sexual intercourse against the will of the victim is qualified as rape.
A Commentary: Invisibility of Older African-American Adults in Electrophysiological Research on Alzheimer’s Disease
Authors: Holston Ezra C. 
Published: October 2024

Background
Currently, researchers are examining the feasibility of integrating electrophysiological biomarkers in the clinical assessment of older adults (≥65 years of age) with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This research has been executed predominantly in older Caucasian adults. Older African-American adults have not been effectively recruited for this research. This issue has resulted in a significant gap in the literature about electrophysiological biomarkers and potential clinical utility in assessing for and diagnosing AD in older African-American adults.

Purpose
To share an opinion about the invisibility of older African-American adults in electrophysiological research on AD and potential outcome their inclusion can have on the integration of electrophysiological biomarkers into clinical practice.

Methods
For this commentary, it was necessary to determine the status of older African-American adults in electrophysiological research. Studies were identified using the search engines PUBMED, CINAHL, Elsevier, and Scopus with a time range of between 2016 and 2022. Nineteen peer-reviewed studies supported this commentary.

Results
In older Caucasian adults with AD, electrophysiological biomarkers were associated with the onset and progression of AD. These biomarkers related to the cognitive impairment of AD and its manifestations. There were no studies characterizing any electrophysiological biomarkers in older African-American adults with AD.

Conclusion
Research is growing to support the integration of electrophysiological biomarkers into clinical practice. The invisibility of older African-American adults in this research affects the reliability of electrophysiological biomarkers and their application to persons with AD in racially diverse groups. This invisibility also contributes to health disparities confronting older African-American adults with AD and their caregivers.

Authors: Garcia Mason J. , Caro Daniela , Hammerle Maria Velasquez , Villarreal Juan B. , DeAngelis Joseph P. , Ramappa Arun J. , Nazarian Ara 
Published: October 2024

Background:
While rotator cuff tears are prevalent in the general population, the natural history of this disease is unclear. Understanding rotator cuff tear progression is crucial for refining surgical indications and evaluating the necessity of early interventions. This study presents an in-depth analysis of the existing literature on the definitions and progression rates of rotator cuff tears, aiming to enhance clinical decision making and patient outcomes.

Methods:
A systematic literature search was conducted based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, using Medline (PubMed), Embase (Elsevier), and Web of Science databases on January 12, 2023. Articles were identified as relevant to the natural history and progression of asymptomatic and symptomatic partial-thickness (PT) and full-thickness (FT) rotator cuff tears. Those written in English reporting rotator cuff progression rates of tears in adults, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or ultrasound, were included. After reviewing the articles, the data on the rates of tear progression and associated risk factors were extracted, compiled, and analyzed. The risk of bias was determined using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.

Results:
Twenty-one articles met the inclusion criteria, with 1,831 tears included. The progression rate for all partial thickness tears was 26.7% ± 12.8% at an average follow-up of 2.2 ± 0.9 years, with 5 definitions for tear progression. For FT tears, the progression rate was 54.9% ± 18.6% at a follow-up time of 3.0 ± 2.0 years, with 8 definitions for tear enlargement. A significant difference (p < 0.0001) was found between the progression rates of PT and FT tears. Patients who were initially asymptomatic and became symptomatic had higher progression rates (33%–63%) than those who remained asymptomatic (4%–38%).

Conclusion:
Further research would benefit by identifying a clinically relevant and standardized definition of rotator cuff tear progression, to describe the natural history of rotator cuff disease, making results more comparable and optimizing treatment planning.

The ability to read and memorize the Qur'an is crucial for young children, providing long-term benefits for their spiritual and cognitive growth. However, there is a growing concern about children’s decreasing engagement with the Qur'an due to the influence of modern distractions. This study addresses this gap by exploring the use of Murojaah wheel media as a tool to facilitate Qur'an memorization among children aged 4-5 years at As-Shoffah Early Childhood Education. The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of this media in enhancing memorization skills. Using a quantitative ex-post facto design, the study involved 12 students selected through a saturated sampling technique. A questionnaire administered to teachers served as the primary instrument for data collection. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression with JASP software version 18.0. The results revealed a significant positive correlation between the use of the Murojaah wheel media and the students' ability to memorize the Qur'an (F=8.943, p=0.014). The novelty of this research lies in its focus on the application of interactive learning media in Islamic education for young children. Implications of these findings suggest that incorporating Murojaah wheel media in early childhood education can effectively support Qur'an memorization, providing a foundation for future Islamic learning. Further research on its application in various educational settings is recommended.
Highlights:

Murojaah wheel media significantly improves young children's ability to memorize the Qur'an.

Dolomite formation in the Miocene Kardiva platform, Maldives archipelago: a tale of closed-system and open-system dolomitization by current pumping of seawater
Authors: Laya Juan Carlos , Budd David A. , Prince Kieron , Jacquemyn Carl , Manche Cameron 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT
Dolomites from two IODP Expedition 359 sites on the northeastern margin of the Miocene Kardiva platform, Maldives archipelago, were examined to explore the question of open-system versus closed-system dolomitization in a drowned carbonate platform. The uppermost ∼ 130 m of platform-margin carbonate at site U1465 contains ≤ 12% dolomite except for five, meters-thick intervals with up to 65% dolomite. All U1465 dolomites consists of decimicron-size euhedral cement crystals and mimetically replaced peloids and coralline red-algal clasts. The abundance and the petrographic features of these dolomites are similar to periplatform and slope dolomite in many other settings that have been interpreted as the product of hydrologically closed-system diagenesis. In contrast, the recovered platform-margin deposits at site U1469 are &gt; 99% dolomite. Those dolomites are partially fabric retentive with fine-to-medium crystalline, planar subhedral to euhedral crystal mosaics of replacive dolomite and dolomite cement, all with Sr contents that average 256 ppm. Their characteristics are comparable to Neogene platform carbonates universally interpreted to signify hydrologically open-system dolomitization. Sr-isotope ages indicate Miocene dolomitization at both sites after platform drowning, and δ18Odolomite values are compatible with dolomitization by cold (10° to 15° C) seawater when the platform margin was, on average, ∼ 400 m below sea level (mbsl).
A current-pumping mechanism for the advection of seawater into the top of the platform at site U1469 is proposed and tested with a computational fluid-flow simulation. Current pumping occurs when strong ocean-bottom currents flow over sedimentary bedforms and generate lateral pressure differences along the sediment–water interface. The pressure differentials drive seawater through the underlying sediments. The flow simulation shows that the ocean currents that swept large sediment sand waves over and off the drowned Kardiva platform for many millions of years could have vigorously pumped Miocene seawater to sub-seafloor depths of many tens of meters. Mass-balance considerations suggest complete dolomitization of the upper 20 m of the platform within 500 ky or less. The current-pumping mechanism could drive dolomitization and mineralogical stabilization below hiatal surfaces, or very slowly accumulating sediments, in any marine setting characterized by strong bottom currents. The greater acidity of Miocene seawater relative to younger seawater possibly made the pumping, by any means, of Miocene seawater of normal salinity an effective dolomitizing agent at site U1469 and in undrowned Miocene platforms globally.
Gas Lift Dynamic Simulation for Unconventional Wells in the Permian Basin

Published: October 2024

Abstract
Unconventional wells in Permian Basin experience a lot of unstable flow conditions (such as slugging or heading and unloading difficulty). This paper intends to investigate the application of dynamic simulation to dissect the intricacies of gas lift unloading and instabilities in unconventional wells. The present study aims to apply these methodologies to gain deeper insights into the gas lift unloading procedure in unconventional oil wells.
This study integrates gas-lift dynamic simulation with unconventional wells reservoir inflow performance relationship (IPR). This is to consider the tubing and casing interaction through the gas lift valves (GLVs) in a way of transient modeling of multi-phase flow to understand the unloading and unstable processes. The results can be used to verify whether the flow will be stable or not, and whether the injection mode will be single point or multi-point, as well as to find mitigation methods for unstable operation. Case studies of actual data with dynamic gas lift simulation are presented in this paper. The gas lift unloading process and the steady-state assumption used in gas lift design are carefully studied with the input of unconventional IPR including productivity index (PI) and static bottomhole pressure (SBHP). The results are compared against the permanent downhole gauge (PDHG) and other OSI PI data for verification. The unstable gas lift wells can be diagnosed for trouble shooting and mitigation. Gas lift valve (GLV) performance model is combined by tuning to the valve performance clearinghouse (VPC) database for valve throttling behavior. Per the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study to apply dynamic simulation to unconventional gas lift wells. This research extends the findings of Tang et al. (1999) to unconventional wells gas lift systems.

Abstract
The absence of proper surveillance during saltwater disposal (SWD) in shallow formations may pose drilling and completion risks for unconventional wells developed below disposal intervals. Predictive models capable of reliable pressure prediction in water disposal formations are essential to mitigate these risks. These models can also be used to optimize future SWD activities such as 1) identifying optimal injection rates and locations of new injectors and 2) minimizing drilling and completion risks by avoiding high-pressure injection locations.
Reservoir simulation has been used for SWD pressure estimation in some assets. However, setting up and maintaining a reliable reservoir model for pressure prediction can be challenging. Complex geology in the disposal formation, coupled with sparse and unreliable pressure data, makes the modeling problem ill-posed and can lead to low confidence reservoir pressure estimates.
We propose a novel SWD modeling technique that leverages the Data Physics framework with simplified but physically rigorous model representations to alleviate the drawbacks encountered in conventional reservoir simulation. These Data Physics models combine reservoir physics and machine learning into unified models that can be built, run, and updated quickly. Additionally, an ensemble-based data assimilation approach accounts for uncertainty and provides more robust pressure predictions.
To test the validity of the approach, a synthetic simulation model was created to serve as the "ground truth." We show that the new modeling technique can effectively use very little data from this simulation model to predict pressure responses due to water injection. The new modeling technique was tested and applied in the Bakken and Permian basins to predict pressure responses due to SWD activities in these areas. The model can also be used to propose new injection strategies to reduce drilling and completion risks.
