«Those in the Monastery Often Make Feasts»: Some Sketches for Future Commentaries on the Canonical Answers by Metropolitan John Prodromos
Authors: Гайденко Павел 
Published: July 2024

Канонические ответы митрополита Иоанна — хорошо известный, но ещё недооценённый и не прокомментированный в полном мере источник по ранней истории Русской церкви. Представленная статья является попыткой комментария 29 ответа митрополита Иоанна II о практике организации и проведения в монастырях совместных монашеских трапез. Анализ источников позволяет заключить, что при всём иноческом максимализме черноризца Иакова, отражённые в вопросе и полученном на него ответе реалии нуждаются в критике и предельной осторожности. Между тем, практика монашеских пиров, хоть и вступала в противоречие с нормами иноческого благочестия и уставами, однако воспринималась в местной церковной и монастырской среде в качестве своего рода нормы, отражавшей представления о христианской любви, как её понимали на Руси. Данная ситуация стала результатом переноса в монашескую среду представлений, заимствованных из дружинной (боярской) и княжеской культуры.
The canonical answers of Metropolitan John are a well-known, but still underestimated and not fully commented source on the early history of the Russian Church. The presented article is an attempt to comment on 29 answers of Metropolitan John II on the practice of organizing and holding joint monastic meals in monasteries. The analysis of the sources allows us to conclude that with all the monastic maximalism of Metropolitan James, the realities reflected in the question and the answer to it need to be criticized with extreme caution. Meanwhile, the practice of monastic feasts, although it contradicted the norms of monastic piety and statutes, was perceived in the local ecclesiastical and monastic environment as a kind of norm, reflecting the notions of Christian love as it was understood in Russia. This situation was the result of the transfer to the monastic environment of ideas borrowed from the druzhinny (boyar) and princely culture.

Sustainable development has been identified as a priority for the world's countries in the near future. However, the Sustainable Development Goals currently face a funding gap. The unequal access to financing for sustainable development, highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic, has become even more entrenched as the events of 2019-2020 have exacerbated the gap between developed and developing countries. Without urgent action, this financing gap risks becoming a sustainable development gap. The main sources of financing for sustainable development are public spending and foreign investment. The events of 2022 in Ukraine have only exacerbated these concerns. Sharp increases in food and energy prices and rapidly deteriorating financial conditions have further strained the already limited fiscal space in developing countries. The above factors have led to a sharp increase in public spending, which limits the fiscal capacity of both developed and developing countries. This has further implications for the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, especially for low-income countries. Today, every third country is at high risk of a fiscal crisis, with not only declining tax revenues but also their share of total GDP. Foreign direct investment can play a crucial role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. From the point of view of host countries, it has the potential to enhance growth and innovation, create quality jobs and human capital development, improve living standards and environmental sustainability, etc. The challenge for developing countries in the current scenario is to mobilize sufficient resources from both domestic and international sources not only to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals per se, but also to support people's livelihoods, health and well-being.

Authors: Oxfeldt Martin , Tegner Heidi , Björklund Martin , Christensen Jan 
Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND: Low back pain (LBP) is the leading cause of disability and an increasing sick leave in Denmark. Psychosocial risk factors have been linked to the development of LBP-related disability and work-absenteeism. The short form Örebro Musculoskeletal Pain Screening Questionnaire (ÖMPSQ-sf) was developed to screen for psychosocial risk factors and assess the risk of long-term disability and work-absenteeism. OBJECTIVE: To translate and cross-culturally adapt ÖMPSQ-sf into Danish and evaluate test-retest reliability with relative and absolute reliability and internal consistency in LBP-patients in a secondary setting. METHODS: A six-step translation and cross-culturally adaptation process was used. Forty-four patients with subacute and chronic LBP were recruited at an outpatient clinic. RESULTS: Test-retest reliability (n= 37) was found to be excellent (ICC2.1= 0.92), Internal Consistency (n= 44) was adequate (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.72). Absolute reliability included Standard Error of Measurement (SEM = 3.97 points), 95% Limits of Agreement (95% LOA = 0.08, -15.90–15.74), and Smallest Detectable Change (SDC = 10.87 points). CONCLUSION: The Danish ÖMPSQ-sf showed acceptable measurements properties in subacute and chronic LBP-patients. Further research is needed to assess other measurement properties of the ÖMPSQ-sf, in relation to validity, responsiveness, and the predictive ability before application in research or clinical practice.

This study examines the interaction impacts of carbon dioxide molecule emissions and population changes on financial development in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The study used yearly time series data spanning the years 2000 to 2021. Following the PMG and FE results, the dynamic system GMM estimator was used in the study. The study found a significant inverse long-run relationship between carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and financial development. Also, demographic changes have a significant positive impact on financial development. The interaction term findings demonstrate that changes in CO2 and GHG emissions have a negative and significant influence on the impact of the money supply ratio on financial development in SSA. The study suggests policies that support the adoption of financial aid or other incentives for initiatives that reduce CO2 emissions. Additionally, initiatives to support financial inclusion, uphold financial stability, encourage the expansion of infrastructure, advance social welfare, and ensure environmental sustainability should be made. Therefore, the SSA countries might benefit from their expanding populations to drive long-term economic expansion and improve living standards for their people.

Published: July 2024

This study explores the role of integrative mechanisms in facilitating zero emissions regional planning, acting as a catalyst for regional development within Europe. Utilizing a quantitative methodology and questionnaire, data were collected from 384 European regions, followed by rigorous statistical analysis. The findings highlight the significance of effective integrative mechanisms in achieving zero emissions, confirming a positive impact on regional development. The results show that Zero emissions regional planning positively impacts regional development. This study also notes that the presence of identifiable challenges (e.g., financial constraints, policy conflicts, technological gaps) significantly hinders the alignment of regional development objectives with zero-emissions targets. These results have substantial implications for stakeholders, emphasizing the need for a collaborative approach in regional planning and suggesting pathways for future research endeavors. Policymakers should pay particular attention to the challenges identified in the study, such as financial constraints, policy conflicts, technological gaps, and cultural resistance to change. Strategies should be developed to mitigate these challenges, including creating financial mechanisms to support zero-emissions initiatives, harmonizing policies at various levels of governance, investing in technology transfer and innovation, and implementing educational and awareness programs to change cultural attitudes.

IntroductionSick building syndrome (SBS) refers to non-specific complaints, including upper-respiratory irritative symptoms, headaches, fatigue, and rash, which are usually associated with a particular building by their temporal pattern of occurrence and clustering among inhabitants or colleagues. The aim of the study was to determine the association between the clinical manifestations of sick building syndrome with outdoor pollutants and airborne pollen.MethodsIt was a descriptive and prospective observational study conducted from November 2021 to April 2022. It included subjects over 18 years old who completed an online survey on sick building syndrome (general symptoms, nasal, ocular, oropharyngeal, and skin symptoms) presented at home, housing information and personal history. The APS-330 from Pollen Sense ® was used to obtain data on pollen in the air and the local pollution monitoring system (SIMA) to obtain information regarding pollutants. For statistical analysis, SPSS version 16 was used.ResultsA total of 402 surveys were included; 91% of the subjects reported having at least 1 symptom. Females presented more general symptoms (fatigue and headache) than males. Subjects with a personal history of atopy showed a higher prevalence of practically all symptoms. Airborne pollen exposure was positively associated with mucosal symptoms in eyes and nose. Outdoor fungi spore exposure was positively associated with oculo-nasal and cutaneous symptoms in the scalp.ConclusionThis study found significant associations with female gender and a history of atopy, which suggests a higher risk for these subjects. Despite the limitations of the study, we can conclude that there is an association between the clinical manifestations of sick building syndrome with indoor and outdoor pollution.

Published: July 2024

The water-soluble nido-carborane was prepared by alkali treatment of o-carborane. A polymer PInd containing a polyindole structure was synthesized and employed to label the modified o-carborane. Subsequently, four polymeric nanomaterials were synthesized with the objective of encapsulating them in order to enhance its bioavailability. The experimental results showed that the fluorescent complex encapsulated by the pH-sensitive polymer A had the best UV absorption and fluorescence intensity, and thus A-PInd-C was chosen for subsequent experiments. The Transmission electron microscopy images revealed that the compounds exhibited a rounded internal morphology, with the layers exhibiting a tightly stacked arrangement. The AFM imaging revealed that the surface of the sample exhibited a relatively uniform and smooth appearance. In vitro release experiments conducted under acidic conditions demonstrated that A-PInd-C was released in a predominantly linear manner, with a maximum release rate of 80% observed within 48 h. Cellular imaging experiments showed that the compound could enter HeLa and HCT-116 cells and was mainly distributed around the nucleus, especially in the acidic environment. The results of the cell proliferation toxicity experiments demonstrated that A-PInd-C exhibited inhibitory effects on HeLa, PC-3 and L02 cells. Among these, the inhibitory effect on PC-3 cells was the most pronounced, reaching up to 70%. In conclusion, this paper solves the problem of poor bioavailability of carborane by improving the boron containing compounds and also makes the system have potential for Boron neutron capture therapy.

Published: July 2024

BackgroundEndometriosis (EM) is a chronic painful condition that predominantly affects women of reproductive age. Currently, surgery or medication can only provide limited symptom relief. This study used a comprehensive genetic analytical approach to explore potential drug targets for EM in the plasma proteome.MethodsIn this study, 2,923 plasma proteins were selected as exposure and EM as outcome for two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. The plasma proteomic data were derived from the UK Biobank Pharmaceutical Proteomics Project (UKB-PPP), while the EM dataset from the FinnGen consortium R10 release data. Several sensitivity analyses were performed, including summary-data-based MR (SMR) analyses, heterogeneity in dependent instruments (HEIDI) test, reverse MR analyses, steiger detection test, and bayesian co-localization analyses. Furthermore, proteome-wide association study (PWAS) and single-cell transcriptomic analyses were also conducted to validate the findings.ResultsSix significant (p &lt; 3.06 × 10-5) plasma protein-EM pairs were identified by MR analyses. These included EPHB4 (OR = 1.40, 95% CI: 1.20 - 1.63), FSHB (OR = 3.91, 95% CI: 3.13 - 4.87), RSPO3 (OR = 1.60, 95% CI: 1.38 - 1.86), SEZ6L2 (OR = 1.44, 95% CI: 1.23 - 1.68) and WASHC3 (OR = 2.00, 95% CI: 1.54 - 2.59) were identified as risk factors, whereas KDR (OR = 0.80, 95% CI: 0.75 - 0.90) was found to be a protective factor. All six plasma proteins passed the SMR test (P &lt; 8.33 × 10-3), but only four plasma proteins passed the HEIDI heterogeneity test (PHEIDI &gt; 0.05), namely FSHB, RSPO3, SEZ6L2 and EPHB4. These four proteins showed strong evidence of co-localization (PPH4 &gt; 0.7). In particular, RSPO3 and EPHB4 were replicated in the validated PWAS. Single-cell analyses revealed high expression of SEZ6L2 and EPHB4 in stromal and epithelial cells within EM lesions, while RSPO3 exhibited elevated expression in stromal cells and fibroblasts.ConclusionOur study identified FSHB, RSPO3, SEZ6L2, and EPHB4 as potential drug targets for EM and highlighted the critical role of stromal and epithelial cells in disease development. These findings provide new insights into the diagnosis and treatment of EM.
