On some features of the recognition of an administrative offense in the field of traffic as insignificant
Authors: Sidorov Eduard Tomovich , Nikonorov Evgenii Anatol'evich 
Published: July 2024

The subject of the study was the legal norms contained both in Article 2.9 and in other norms of the Code of Administrative Offences of the Russian Federation, which empower a law enforcement officer, when considering a case of an administrative offense in the field of traffic, to release a person from administrative responsibility if the administrative offense is insignificant.The object of the study was the administrative legal relations that arise when a law enforcement officer implements the legal institution of releasing a person from administrative responsibility if an administrative offense is insignificant. The authors analyzed the positions of scientists who have studied this legal institution at various times. Special attention is paid to the decisions of the highest judicial authorities and judicial practice in this area by district and regional courts. The article proposes criteria for determining an administrative offense as a gross one, and substantiates the position that a gross administrative offense cannot be recognized as insignificant under any circumstances. The methodological basis of the research was the dialectical method of cognition, the fundamental principles of the scientific worldview. In the course of the study, methods of historical, comparative legal, concrete sociological, and statistical analysis were used. When preparing a scientific article, the authors of the article conducted a survey of traffic police officers. As a result of the conducted research, the following conclusions were formulated: 1. The range of public relations in the field of public administration protected by legislation on administrative offenses is so wide that it makes it impossible to establish specific criteria for recognizing an administrative offense as insignificant. 2. In order to fill this gap, the higher judicial authorities establish specific compositions of administrative offenses that cannot be recognized as insignificant. 4. It is necessary to introduce the concept of "gross administrative offense" in the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, which should be understood as "administrative offenses, the repeated commission of which entails criminal liability." 5. Article 2.9 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation should be supplemented with the second part, which will contain the following legal norm: "Persons who have committed such administrative offenses, for which the repetition of their commission entails criminal liability, cannot be released from administrative responsibility in connection with the recognition of an act as insignificant."

Cultura e processos de gestão em tempo de pandemia - quantificações emergenciais
Authors: Rodrigues Luiz Augusto Fernandes , Correia Marcelo Silveira 
Published: July 2024

As fragilidades e vulnerabilidades do setor cultural no Brasil são enormes, tanto em termos das condições de trabalho quanto do fraco investimento financeiro, sobretudo a nível federal. As políticas nacionais de cultura do país se encontram fortemente abaladas desde 2016 com as tentativas de esvaziamento da pasta durante os governos mais recentes em nível federal. Uma conjuntura que vinha promovendo esforços para minimizar exclusões de grandes camadas da sociedade brasileira se viu em processo contrário, inclusive com a quase nula atenção a duas leis importantes em termos de gestão compartilhada da cultura: a Lei do Sistema Nacional de Cultura (2012) e a que instituiu a Política Nacional de Cultura Viva (2014). Em termos estaduais percebe-se, também forte ausência de gestão pública da cultura e alguns retrocessos, especialmente em estados de ressonância como Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo, e suas cidades capitais homônimas. Algumas resistências são encontradas em gestões em nível municipal (como será debatido). A pesquisa se apóia nos ODS da ONU e a necessidade de maior inclusão de grupos em situação de vulnerabilidade. O que já se apresentava fraco pela quase ausência de políticas governamentais estruturantes, se agravou enormemente com o quadro pandêmico do COVID-19 e as restrições impostas pelo necessário isolamento social, pois "a cultura foi a primeira a parar e será a última a voltar". Ausências e proposições de políticas públicas - tanto em nível federal como local - serão debatidos, assim como dados parciais em construção serão apresentados.

ObjectivePulmonary disease represents an important extraarticular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). While the association of RA and interstitial lung disease is widely acknowledged, obstructive lung disease (OLD) in RA is less well understood. We therefore aimed to assess the incidence, risk factors, and mortality of OLD in patients with RA.MethodsWe examined a population‐based incident cohort of patients with RA and a comparison cohort of individuals without RA. OLD was defined using a strict composite criterion. Cox proportional hazards models were used to compare OLD incidence between the RA and comparator cohorts to investigate risk factors and to explore the impact of OLD on patient survival.ResultsA total of 594 patients with RA and 596 subjects without RA were followed for a mean of 16.3 and 19.4 years, respectively. The lifetime risk of developing OLD was 9.6% for RA patients and 6.2% for subjects without RA (hazard ratio [HR] 1.54, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.01–2.34). The risk of developing OLD was higher among male patients, among current or former smokers, and for individuals with more severe RA. Survival of RA patients diagnosed with OLD was worse compared to those without OLD (HR 2.09, 95% CI 1.47–2.97).ConclusionPatients with RA are at higher risk of developing OLD, which is significantly associated with premature mortality. Effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to detect and manage OLD in patients with RA may help to improve survival in these patients.
Recombineering to homogeneity: extension of multiplex recombineering to large‐scale genome editing

Published: February 2013

AbstractRecombineering has been an essential tool for genetic engineering in microbes for many years and has enabled faster, more efficient engineering than previous techniques. There have been numerous studies that focus on improving recombineering efficiency, which can be divided into three main areas: (i) optimizing the oligo used for recombineering to enhance replication fork annealing and limit proofreading; (ii) mechanisms to modify the replisome itself, enabling an increased rate of annealing; and (iii) multiplexing recombineering targets and automation. These efforts have increased the efficiency of recombineering several hundred‐fold. One area that has received far less attention is the problem of multiple chromosomes, which effectively decrease efficiency on a chromosomal basis, resulting in more sectored colonies, which require longer outgrowth to obtain clonal populations. Herein, we describe the problem of multiple chromosomes, discuss calculations predicting how many generations are needed to obtain a pure colony, and how changes in experimental procedure or genetic background can minimize the effect of multiple chromosomes.
Adaptive system identification using robust LMS/F algorithm
Authors: Gui Guan , Peng Wei , Adachi Fumiyuki 
Published: February 2013

ABSTRACTAdaptive system identification (ASI) problems have attracted both academic and industrial attentions for a long time. As one of the classical approaches for ASI, performance of least mean square (LMS) is unstable in low signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) region. On the contrary, least mean fourth (LMF) algorithm is difficult to implement in practical system because of its high computational complexity in high SNR region, and hence it is usually neglected by researchers. In this paper, we propose an effective approach to identify unknown system adaptively by using combined LMS and LMF algorithms in different SNR regions. Experiment‐based parameter selection is established to optimize the performance as well as to keep the low computational complexity. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AbstractVitamin E (VE) has been added to ultrahigh‐molecular‐weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) acetabular cups and tibial trays primarily to reduce oxidative damage to the polymer. The aim of this study was to investigate the relative wear rates of UHMWPE‐containing VE compared with virgin UHMWPE. The ability of VE to reduce the amount of inflammatory cytokines produced from stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNCs) was also investigated. Stimulation was achieved by exposure of PBMNCs to either lipoplysaccharide (LPS) or VE‐containing UHMWPE (VE‐UHMWPE). In the present study, results showed that the wear rates of UHMWPE with or without VE were not significantly different. Particles generated by UHMWPE with and without VE were not significantly different in size distribution. The production of osteolytic mediators, tumor necrosis factor‐alpha, interleukin 1β (IL‐β), IL‐6, and IL‐8 were significantly reduced in (PBMNCs) stimulated with either LPS + VE compared with LPS or VE‐UHMWPE particles compared to virgin UHMWPE particles. This trend was also observed when VE was added as a liquid to UHMWPE wear particle‐stimulated PBMNCs. The exact mechanism of how VE affects the release of inflammatory mediators from particle‐stimulated macrophages is not yet understood. It is likely to involve the anti‐inflammatory and/or antioxidant effects of VE. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Biomed Mater Res Part B: Appl Biomater 101B: 458–466, 2013.

Published: February 2013

AbstractSteam plasma jet (SPJ) was generated by phenol aqueous solution introduced into water plasma torch as plasma forming gas, which injected into phenol aqueous solution to conduct oxidation degradation of organic pollutants in aqueous solutions. The experimental results indicated that the phenol was not only decomposed in SPJ, but also degraded in phenol aqueous solution due to high concentration hydroxyl radicals. Moreover, the energy efficiencies significantly increased from (1.6–1.8) × 10−10 to (4.8–8.0) × 10−8 mol · J−1 with the initial concentration of phenol increased from 0.5 to 50.0 g · L−1. The main intermediates of phenol decomposition were pyrocatechol, hydroquinone, maleic acid, butanedioic acid, and muconic acid in liquid. The major gaseous effluence products were H2, CO, and CO2. magnified image

Published: February 2013

Background Questionnaires are often used to quantify the subjective aspects of illness such as disability, coping strategies, or symptoms of depression. Most questionnaires were validated in a paper-based format, but direct entry into a computer is becoming commonplace. The aim of this study was to assess differences in outcome of questionnaires pertinent to hand and upper extremity illness when they were administered in a computer or paper format. Method Ninety-nine patients completed both paper and web versions of the short forms of the Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand; the Pain Catastrophizing Scale; the Short Health Anxiety Index (SHAI-6); the Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Scale; and a pain scale and the Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire sequentially during a single visit. We alternated starting with the paper or the web version after every five patients. Results The cohort consisted of 46 females and 53 males with a mean age of 49 years. There were significant differences in SHAI-6 and the pain scale, but not in the other measures. The intraclass correlation was high. Conclusions The use of these questionnaires in electronic format is valid provided that the small differences we observed are not important to the primary study question. In our opinion, for most studies, the advantages of using an electronic format outweigh the small additional variation that might be introduced in the measures in an electronic format.

Published: February 2013

Background We hypothesize that one-stage Integra skin coverage is an effective treatment modality for the treatment of fingertip defects. Methods Nine patients who sustained fingertip injuries were treated with one-stage Integra coverage. In all cases, Integra was placed directly on bone. Static two-point discrimination and the Semmes–Weinstein Monofilament Test (SWMFT) were used to determine the sensations of the affected and opposite unaffected digit. The QuickDASH, Cold Intolerance Symptom Severity (CISS), visual analog scale (VAS), and a 0–10-point pain scale were administered to assess patient function, satisfaction, and pain levels. Results The mean age was 53.1 years (39–61). There were 8 males and 1 female. The average area covered was 2.3 cm2 (1.0–3.2). The mean follow-up duration was 16 months (8–46). The median QuickDASH, CISS score, VAS patient satisfaction, and 0–10 pain score were 9.1 (2.3–40.9), 18 (4–30), 10 (most satisfied) (7–10), and 0 (0–3), respectively. Five patients were evaluated for their digital sensory perception. The mean static two-point discrimination was 9.6 mm for the affected digit and 4.6 mm for the opposite unaffected digit. The median SWMFT was 4.31 for the affected digit and 3.61 for the opposite unaffected digit. Conclusion For small soft tissue and bone defects involving the fingertip, the use of Integra without further skin grafting appears to be effective, avoids the morbidity of the donor site, and avoids a second surgery. Despite mild sensory deficits, patients were satisfied with the results and fully functional during short-term follow-up.
Evaluating environmental governance in a Belarusian World Bank biodiversity project
Authors: FALALEEVA MARIA , RAUSCHMAYER FELIX 
Published: February 2013

SUMMARYInternational aid projects in post-communist countries were meant to support environmental protection during the transition period and to introduce new standards of environmental governance. While the outcomes of the World Bank biodiversity project in the Belavezhskaya Pushcha National Park in Belarus were evaluated positively after its delayed completion, an assessment using the same criteria 10 years later questioned its long-term effectiveness. This paper links current project outcomes with the implementation process, and uses this knowledge to deduce lessons for designing and implementing future international initiatives in Belarus and other post-communist contexts. There are four interlinked and project-specific reasons for the observed unsustainability of project outcomes are identified: (1) the predominance of the natural sciences, (2) an unbalanced representation of actors within the hierarchical system of governance, (3) powerful implementation by official high-level actors, and (4) insufficient knowledge of participatory methods and principles of multi-level governance. In order to introduce new standards for environmental governance, international aid projects should (1) streamline communications between the actors at different scales, including donor organizations, local agencies and stakeholders in the receiving countries; and (2) use ongoing project and, in particular, process assessment to reflect on the project progress to achieve longer term effectiveness of project outcomes.

SUMMARYForty-five human rabies virus isolates from a wide geographical area of Brazil were characterized using an anti-nucleoprotein monoclonal antibody panel and by partial nucleotide sequencing analysis of the nucleoprotein gene. Three major antigenic groups related to the antigenic variants maintained in domestic dogs, vampire bats and marmosets were identified. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that the viruses from dog-related cases segregated into four sister clades: three associated with dog-endemic cycles in Brazil and one with the crab-eating fox cycle in the northeastern region of the country. The vampire bat- and marmoset-related viruses formed two independent groups. The topology of these clades was conserved when these samples were compared to virus representatives of the currently reported rabies endemic cycles in the Americas. These results indicated the presence of multiple endemic transmission cycles maintained in four different reservoirs, domestic dogs, crab-eating foxes, vampire bats and marmosets, which are being transmitted directly to humans and should be considered as a high-risk for rabies infection.
