Формы и жанры сетевого фольклора и пандемия COVID-19
Authors: Суханова Т.Н. 
Published: February 2025

В статье на материале сетевого фольклора исследуется реакция креативных пользователей Рунета на главное событие начала 2020-х гг. — пандемию COVID-19. Объединенные стратегией противостояния глобальному бедствию и использующие свой традиционный инструментарий — смех и игру, — участники интернет-сообществ фиксируют организационные и бытовые обстоятельства пандемии (карантин и обусловленные им вынужденная домашняя изоляция, удаленная работа, специфические бытовые проблемы). В поле зрения автора статьи — креолизованные, т. е. сочетающие вербальный и визуальный коды формы и жанры: мем, комикс, демотиватор, фотожаба. Рассматривается также расцветший именно в период пандемии жанр сетевого косплея, представленный проектом «Изоизоляция», объединившим сотни тысяч энтузиастов. Сетевой карнавал не знает ограничений, подвергая шутовскому осмеянию, а нередко и глумлению врага — коронавирус, для победы над которым запретов не существует. Пропуская через смеховую и одновременно игровую оптику Сети переработанные в виртуальном иномирье впечатления реальных событий, сетевой фольклор представляет важнейшее документальное свидетельство повседневности периода пандемии.
This article, based on folklore from the Internet, examines the reactions of Runet users to the main event of the early 2020s — the COVID-19 pandemic. United by desire to confront a global disaster using the traditional tools of laughter and play, members of online communities recorded the organizational and everyday circumstances of the pandemic (quarantine, forced home isolation, remote work, specific everyday problems), relying on the phenomena of online folklore. The author examines crealized works, that is, forms and genres combining verbal and visual codes such as meme, comic book, “demotivator”, “fotozhaba” (photoshop contest). The genre of online cosplay, which flourished during the pandemic, is also considered, represented by the Isolation (Izoizolyatsiya) Project, which brought together hundreds of thousands of participants. The internet carnival knows no limits, subjecting the enemy — the coronavirus — to mockery and derision, on which there exist no prohibitions. Passing through the laughing and at the same time playful prism of the Internet, the impressions of real events processed in the virtual other-world, network folklore represent the most important documentary evidence of everyday life during the pandemic. By transmitting impressions of real events processed in this way, online folklore represents the most important documentary evidence of everyday life during the pandemic.
К вопросу о современном состоянии поверий и практик, связанных со сглазом и порчей в Сицилии
Authors: Фаис-Леутская О.Д. 
Published: February 2025

В настоящей статье автор, преимущественно на материалах многолетних полевых исследований, пытается очертить абрис современного состояния поверий и практик, связанных с магическим воздействием (сглазом и порчей), в таком консервативном и сохраняющем архаичную культуру и магическое мышление регионе юга Италии, как Сицилия. В процессе исследования проводится сопоставление и сравнительный анализ привлекавших внимание ученых вплоть до 1970-х гг. достаточно хорошо известных древних элементов магической культуры и обнаруженных сегодня автором составляющих магической эмпирики; кроме того, ввиду исторического существования социально-маркированных культурных различий, связанных еще с недавней социальной стратификацией общества, автор отслеживает магические верования и практики в различных слоях сицилийского социума. В процессе исследования обнаруживается не только сохранение в Сицилии древних представлений и практик, связанных со сглазом и порчей, но и гомогенизация этих понятий, а также господство преимущественно локального комплекса мифов и ритуалов, отторгающего инновации и заимствования; подтверждается широта распространения среди населения веры в эти формы злокозненного воздействия, а также в возможность их предотвращения и «исцеления», равно как и в эффективность атрибутов защиты (жестов, вербальных формул, предметов) и акторов помощи (ведуний) «жертвам» воздействия.
In this article, the author outlines the current state of beliefs and practices relating to the evil eye and hexes in the conservative culture of Sicily, which often preserves archaic and magical thinking. She analyzes and compares the fairly well-known ancient elements of magical culture that have attracted scholars up to the 1970s as well as other components she herself has uncovered. In addition, the author tracks magical beliefs and practices in various strata of Sicilian society, since socially marked cultural differences mark the more recent stratification of society. The study reveals not only the preservation of ancient ideas and practices in Sicily that are related to the evil eye and hexes, but also the homogenization of these phenomena. It notes the dominance of a predominantly local complex of myths and rituals that reject innovation and borrowing and it confirms the widespread belief in these forms of malicious influence. It also takes note of the possibility of preventing and “healing” them, as well as the belief in the existence of protective means against them (gestures, verbal formulas, objects) and in those who may render assistance (witches) to their victims.

The Impact of Digital Transformation on Risk-Taking: An Empirical Study of Japanese Companies
Authors: Wagan Sh. M. , Sidra S. 
Published: February 2025

Goal: This paper examines the effect of digital transformation on corporate risk-taking in Japanese firms and, more importantly, identifies links between digital technology integration and risk appetite. This study inspects how digital transformation impacts internal control quality, investment efficiency, and general financial soundness, with special emphasis on the differences between state-owned versus non-state-owned enterprises.Methods: The empirical analysis uses the data of Nikkei Index firms from 2010 through 2023. Out of the total, excluding the financial and insurance sectors as well as aberrant statuses in trading, 225 firms resulted in 14,567 observations. The regression models controlled for a number of different factors, such as enterprise size, profitability, and industry type of firm.Results: The empirical evidence based on the pooled sample implies that enhanced digital transformation significantly boosts the capability of corporate risktaking. Specifically, a comparison of the estimated coefficients obtained across the state-owned enterprises versus their non-state-owned counterparts shows a large difference in the magnitude for the latter. The increasing adoption of digital technologies heightens the propensity of those firms to invest in high-risk investments, hence improving their value at large.Conclusions: The study contributes to an understanding of how digital transformation affects corporate behavior in terms of risk-taking. It underlines the need to develop digital initiatives that contribute to investment efficiency and financial stability. The findings imply that policymakers and business leaders should encourage strategies of digital transformation, especially for non-state-owned enterprises, to achieve economic growth through increased risk-taking ability.

INTRODUCTION. Vaccination against smallpox was discontinued in 1980 following the success of the World Health Organization’s Smallpox Eradication Programme. Consequently, more than half of the current world population lacks immunity to orthopoxviruses pathogenic to humans. Since 2022, several countries have been reporting outbreaks of mpox (previously known as monkeypox), which necessitates developing new small molecules active against orthopoxviruses.AIM. The aim was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NIOCH-14, a Russian anti-smallpox medicinal product, after oral administration in a phase I clinical trial.MATERIALS AND METHODS. The clinical trial was conducted in 90 healthy volunteers at the Federal State budgetary Institution of Healthcare ‘Medical and Sanitary Unit No. 163 of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency’ in accordance with Protocol No. NIOCH-01/20 ‘An open, simple, randomised study of the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics of NIOCH-14 in volunteers aged 18–50 years in parallel groups’. Investigators used a standard set of clinical, laboratory, and instrument-based testing methods. The clinical trial included six experimental groups of 15 subjects each. Groups 1, 2, and 3 received NIOCH-14 as a single oral dose of 200, 600, and 1200 mg, respectively. Groups 4, 5, and 6 received NIOCH-14 at daily oral doses of 200, 600, and 1200 mg/day, respectively, for 6 days.RESULTS. After single and repeated administration of NIOCH-14 at doses of 200, 600, and 1200 mg to volunteers, the study did not demonstrate any changes in the blood test results (erythrocyte, leucocyte, platelet, and differential leucocyte counts; haemoglobin levels; erythrocyte sedimentation rate values; alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase, and alkaline phosphatase activity levels; total protein, total bilirubin, glucose, creatinine, urea, and C-reactive protein levels; prothrombin time ratios; thymol turbidity). Similarly, the urinalysis results remained unaltered throughout the entire observation period. No adverse events were observed in volunteers receiving NIOCH-14 at all single doses or repeated doses of 200 and 600 mg. One volunteer receiving the investigational medicinal product at a repeated dose of 1200 mg/day experienced transient epigastric pain on days 2 and 5.CONCLUSIONS. The physical examination, haematology, blood chemistry, and urinalysis results did not reveal any pathological changes in healthy volunteers. The investigational medicinal product, formulated as hard gelatin capsules containing 200 mg of NIOCH-14 and excipients, demonstrated a favourable safety and tolerability profile.REGISTRATION. This clinical trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05976100).

Improving Our Knowledge of the Solar Near-Surface Shear Layer: The Special Case of the Leptocline
Authors: Rozelot Jean Pierre , Kosovichev Alexander , Kitiashvili Irina 
Published: February 2025

The discovery of the solar activity cycle was linked from the outset to the observation of the temporal variability of sunspots, which we know to be the result of complex processes associated with the dynamics of inner layers. Numerous recent studies have highlighted changes in the Sun’s Near-Surface Shear Layer (NSSL), pointing to the role of the leptocline, a shallow and sharp rotational shear layer in the top \(\sim 8\) Mm. The leptocline, mainly characterized by a strong radial rotational gradient at middle latitudes and self-organized meridional flows, is the cradle of numerous phenomena: opacity, superadiabaticity, and turbulent pressure changes; the hydrogen and helium ionization processes; a sharp decrease in the sound speed; and, probably, variations of the seismic radius associated with a nonmonotonic expansion of subsurface layers with depth. In addition, the leptocline may play a key role in forming the magnetic butterfly diagram. Such results are a starting point for further systematic investigations of the structure and dynamics of this layer, which will lead to a better understanding of solar activity.

IntroductionMacrophages play a crucial immunological role in maintaining pregnancy. Placental malaria infection may cause dysfunction in decidual macrophages which then culminates in the associated pregnancy complications. Here, we determined the influence of placental malaria on decidual macrophages, by assessing their distribution based on their unique phenotypes, and examining their expression levels of transcription factors as well as angiogenic factors, in placentas from women living in a malaria-endemic area.MethodsWe compared these macrophage parameters in placentas from malaria infected women to those from the uninfected women. Placentas were collected upon delivery and malaria infection determined by histology together with PCR from dry blood spots obtained from placental blood. Following enzymatic dissociation of placental tissue, immune cells were enriched from the total population of placental cells by density centrifugation. Macrophage phenotypic characteristics were then analyzed from the placental immune cells by flow cytometry. The expression of surface markers CD68, CD80, CD86, CD163, CD206, and CD209, was used to delineate the macrophage populations. For gene expression profiling, macrophages were isolated from the placental immune cells and the expression level of transcription factors STAT-1, IRF-5, STAT-6, c-Maf and angiogenic factors ANG-1, ANG-2 and VEGF determined by qPCR.Results and DiscussionWe found no difference in the total macrophage populations and M1 and M2 macrophage profiles between uninfected and infected placentas, however, M2 macrophages were significantly higher compared to their M1 counterparts regardless of infection status. Notably, the gene expression levels of the transcription factor STAT-6 and angiogenic factor ANG-1 were significantly lower in infected placentas. These findings provide a basis for further understanding of the role of placental macrophages in placental malaria pathogenesis. Analysis of the functional consequences of these observations is needed to determine if these factors can be explored to reprogram macrophage polarization to desired state.
