Authors: Pchelin V. B. , Zvirianskyi G. V. 
Published: November 2023

The article defines the essence and analyses the features of legal regulation of legal liability of employees of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine. The essence, content and significance of the category “legal liability” have been clarified, and this has been used as the basis for forming the authors’ vision of the essence of legal liability of employees of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine as a measure of regulatory influence on the behaviour of such employees which is exercised as a result of deviations from the rules of their activities established by law and is expressed in the application of appropriate negative measures. It has been identified and characterized a set of acts of current national legislation on the basis of which the legal liability of the employees of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine is regulated.
The main regulatory legal acts which determine the legal grounds for bringing the employees of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine to the relevant type of legal liability have been described. It has been concluded that bringing the employees of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine to certain types of legal liability is not properly regulated at the legal level. It has been substantiated that the material liability of the employees of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine who hold special ranks, unlike employees of other law enforcement agencies, is regulated by the provisions of general rather than special legislation. It has been proved that today there is no special legislative act which regulates disciplinary liability of the employees of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine.
Approaches to overcoming the shortcomings of legal regulation of legal liability of the employees of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine have been formed. Effective ways to resolve the situation in the area under study have been suggested by introducing appropriate amendments to the current national legislation of Ukraine, on the basis of which the legal liability of the employees of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine is regulated, and the necessity of adopting a special legislative act which would determine the legal basis for bringing them to disciplinary liability has been proved.

Published: November 2023

The forensic, organisational and technical features of law enforcement agencies' work with the Monero cryptocurrency in the context of pre-trial investigation and operational search activities are analysed. The development of the Monero system is described. The reasons and trends of Monero use by offenders are identified, and the scheme of operation of this payment system, which ensures its increased confidentiality, is shown. Examples of criminal offences in which Monero is used are presented. The functionality of OpenAlias to facilitate the work with Monero addresses is disclosed. The possibility of identifying participants in Monero transactions is studied. It is stated that there are currently no effective ways of such identification without knowledge of the public address and the corresponding keys, especially if users use additional security mechanisms such as connection to the TOR network.
The features of forensic investigation of computer equipment used to work with Monero are revealed. It is established that the most effective is the study of traces of work with Monero, which are removed from the relevant computer equipment of the person of interest. Useful information can be stored in RAM, on a disc, and partially in network traffic. The article identifies artefacts that should be taken into account during inspection and search. Atomic Swaps of XMR are modelled to determine the trace pattern and identify artefacts of increased attention during forensic procedures. The fact that an atomic swap was carried out to obfuscate traces may be evidenced by the presence of specific software files on the disc used for this purpose.
The algorithm for XMR withdrawal using multisig addresses has been proposed, from which funds can be withdrawn only when digital signatures of several persons are superimposed. The work of this algorithm in the test network Stagenet is modelled. It has been concluded that law enforcement agencies should focus on classical investigative measures to identify Monero users of interest. At the same time, there are effective mechanisms for documenting traces of work with the Monero payment system and proven methods for extracting passphrases to crypto-wallets and other sensitive information on the movement of funds in the Monero system from computer equipment.
Theoretical and legal principles of forensic psychiatric examination in criminal proceedings
Authors: Makarova O. P. 
Published: November 2023

The category of forensic examinations includes examinations conducted in civil or criminal proceedings by court order. Forensic examinations are carried out in specialised forensic institutions or outside these institutions in accordance with the procedure established by law. A significant number of forensic examinations are conducted in forensic departments of state psychiatric institutions. According to Ukrainian legislation, state forensic institutions are those institutions that are specifically designated to conduct forensic examinations and are subordinate to the Healthcare Department. A forensic psychiatric or comprehensive forensic psychological and psychiatric examination must be conducted by experts in accordance with the procedure set out in the Civil Procedure and Criminal Procedure Codes of Ukraine. Depending on the nature of the expert research, forensic psychiatric examination departments are divided into outpatient and inpatient.
The knowledge that a psychiatric expert must have is specific, taking into account knowledge of the patterns and characteristics of mental activity of the individual. This specialised knowledge is acquired during special professional psychological and psychiatric training, and is subsequently implemented in the practice of forensic psychiatric examination, and therefore has legal significance. The knowledge used in the pre-trial investigation of criminal offences and in court proceedings is used to establish the mental state of the person who committed the criminal offence.
The theoretical and legal aspects of the appointment and conduct of forensic psychiatric examination have been determined on the basis of the analysis of the provisions of legal acts in this area. The issues related to the professional component of training of experts conducting forensic psychiatric examination have been highlighted, and it has been found that, as a rule, they have their own individual style of professional activity and constantly improve their level of competence.
It has been found out that the subject of psychiatrist's research is mental diseases and disorders, brain diseases manifested by disorders of mental activity of a person. The issues of ethical standards in the activities of an expert in conducting a forensic psychiatric examination have been considered.

Published: November 2023

BackgroundCardiac dysfunction is a well-established risk factor for contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI). Nevertheless, the relationship between cardiac remodeling, as assessed by echocardiography, and CA-AKI remains uncertain.MethodA total of 3,241 patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) with/without percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled in this retrospective study. Collected echocardiographic parameters were normalized by body surface area (BSA) and divided according to quartile, including the left ventricular internal end-diastolic diameter index (LVIDDI), left ventricular internal end-systolic diameter index (LVIDSI), and left ventricular mass index (LVMI). Logistic regression analysis was conducted to ascertain the association between structural parameter changes and CA-AKI. Further investigation was performed in different subgroups.ResultsThe mean age of the participants was 66.6 years, and 16.3% suffered from CA-AKI. LVIDSI [≥22.9 mm/m2: OR = 1.953, 95%CI (1.459 to 2.615), P &lt; 0.001], LVIDDI [≥33.2 mm/m2: OR = 1.443, 95%CI (1.087 to 1.914), P = 0.011], and LVMI [≥141.0 g/m2: OR = 1.530, 95%CI (1.146 to 2.044), P = 0.004] in quartile were positively associated with CA-AKI risk in general (all P for trend &lt;0.05). These associations were consistent when stratified by age, left ventricular ejection fraction, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide (all P for interaction &gt;0.05). The presence of eccentric hypertrophy [OR = 1.400, 95%CI (1.093 to 1.793), P = 0.008] and the coexistence of hypertrophy and dilation [OR = 1.397, 95%CI (1.091 to 1.789), P = 0.008] carried a higher CA-AKI risk.ConclusionThe presence of cardiac remodeling, assessed by echocardiography, is associated with a higher risk of CA-AKI.

Introduction: The Capsicum annuum nuclear factor Y subunit B (CaNFYB) gene family plays a significant role in diverse biological processes, including plant responses to abiotic stressors such as salinity.Methods: In this study, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the CaNFYB gene family in pepper, encompassing their identification, structural details, evolutionary relationships, regulatory elements in promoter regions, and expression profiles under salinity stress.Results and discussion: A total of 19 CaNFYB genes were identified and subsequently characterized based on their secondary protein structures, revealing conserved domains essential for their functionality. Chromosomal distribution showed a non-random localization of these genes, suggesting potential clusters or hotspots for NFYB genes on specific chromosomes. The evolutionary analysis focused on pepper and comparison with other plant species indicated a complex tapestry of relationships with distinct evolutionary events, including gene duplication. Moreover, promoter cis-element analysis highlighted potential regulatory intricacies, with notable occurrences of light-responsive and stress-responsive binding sites. In response to salinity stress, several CaNFYB genes demonstrated significant temporal expression variations, particularly in the roots, elucidating their role in stress adaptation. Particularly CaNFYB01, CaNFYB18, and CaNFYB19, play a pivotal role in early salinity stress response, potentially through specific regulatory mechanisms elucidated by their cis-elements. Their evolutionary clustering with other Solanaceae family members suggests conserved ancestral functions vital for the family’s survival under stress. This study provides foundational knowledge on the CaNFYB gene family in C. annuum, paving the way for further research to understand their functional implications in pepper plants and relative species and their potential utilization in breeding programs to enhance salinity tolerance.

BackgroundChronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a genetic disorder caused by defective oxidative burst within phagocytes, manifesting as recurrent, severe infections as well as hyperinflammation.ObjectiveThis is the first report from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to describe the demographic, clinical, laboratory, radiological, and genetic characteristics of patients with CGD.MethodsThis is a retrospective study that was conducted at Tawam Hospital in the UAE on patients with confirmed CGD between 2017 and 2022.ResultsA total of 14 patients were diagnosed with CGD, of whom 13 patients had autosomal recessive (AR) CGD due to NCF1 deficiency. Consanguinity was noted in all patients with AR CGD, whereas positive family history was identified in 50% of cases. The median age of onset of symptoms was 24 months, while the median age at diagnosis was 72 months. Lymphadenitis was the most common clinical feature identified in 71% of patients. Other common infectious manifestations included abscess formation (57%), pneumonia (50%), invasive aspergillosis (21%), oral thrush (14%), and sepsis (14%). Disseminated trichosporonosis was reported in one patient. Autoimmune and inflammatory manifestations included celiac disease in two patients, diabetes mellitus and asymptomatic colitis in one patient each. Genetic analysis was performed in all patients; NCF1 deficiency was diagnosed in 13 (93%) patients, with c.579G&gt;A being the most prevalent pathogenic variant identified. The treatment modalities, as well as treatment of acute infections, treatment modalities included antimicrobial prophylaxis in 12 (86%) patients and hematopoietic stem cell transplant in six patients (42%).ConclusionThis is the first report from the UAE describing the clinical and molecular characteristics of patients with CGD. The homozygous variant c.579G&gt;A causing NCF1 deficiency can be considered as a founder mutation for AR CGD in the UAE.

BackgroundWohlfahrtiimonas chitiniclastica is an emerging fly-borne zoonotic pathogen, which causes infections in immunocompromised patients and some animals. Herein, we reported a W. chitiniclastica BM-Y from a dead zebra in China.MethodsThe complete genome sequencing of BM-Y showed that this isolate carried one chromosome and one novel type of blaVEB–1-carrying plasmid. Detailed genetic dissection was applied to this plasmid to display the genetic environment of blaVEB–1.ResultsThree novel insertion sequence (IS) elements, namely ISWoch1, ISWoch2, and ISWoch3, were found in this plasmid. aadB, aacA1, and gcuG were located downstream of blaVEB–1, composing a gene cassette array blaVEB–1–aadB–aacA1–gcuG bracketed by an intact ISWoch1 and a truncated one, which was named the blaVEB–1 region. The 5′-RACE experiments revealed that the transcription start site of the blaVEB–1 region was located in the intact ISWoch1 and this IS provided a strong promoter for the blaVEB–1 region.ConclusionThe spread of the blaVEB–1-carrying plasmid might enhance the ability of W. chitiniclastica to survive under drug selection pressure and aggravate the difficulty in treating infections caused by blaVEB–1-carrying W. chitiniclastica. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the genetic characterization of a novel blaVEB–1-carrying plasmid with new ISs from W. chitiniclastica.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic middle pancreatectomy in the treatment of benign and junctional tumors of the pancreas.MethodsRetrospective analysis of basic data, tumor diameter, statistical analysis, and evaluation of efficacy-related indicators such as operative time, intraoperative bleeding, pathological findings, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative pancreatic fistula incidence, and pancreatic endocrine function was carried out on 17 patients diagnosed with benign or low-grade malignant tumors of the pancreas and laparoscopic middle pancreatic resection from January 2018 to January 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan Normal University.ResultsA total of 17 patients were screened. There were eight males and nine females; mean age was 42.8 ± 17.4 years (range: 15–69 years); BMI was 22.6 ± 2.5 kg/m2 (range: 18.4–27.5 kg/m2), and the tumor size was 3.4 ± 1.2 cm (range: 1.5–5.5 cm). Preoperative glycan antigen CA19-9 was negative and CA125 was negative. Surgical time was 393.2 ± 57.9 min; intraoperative bleeding was 211.7 ± 113.9 ml; tumor diameter size was 3.4 ± 1.2 cm; postoperative admission time was 19.4 ± 7.6 days; postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) grading was 17 cases, including nine cases of A-grade fistula, three cases of B-grade fistula, and none of C-grade fistula; postoperative pathology results were five cases of plasmacytoma, three cases of mucinous cystadenoma, four cases of SPN (solid pseudopapillary neoplasm), one case of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm (IPMN), three cases of pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasm (pNEN), one case of inflammatory myofibroblastic osteoblastoma. All cases did not develop pancreatic origin diabetes or exacerbation of previous diabetes, and no cases presented symptoms of exocrine insufficiency such as dyspepsia and diarrhea.ConclusionLaparoscopic middle pancreatectomy is safe and feasible in the treatment of benign or low-grade malignant tumors in the body of the pancreatic neck and is not accompanied by increased risk of intraoperative and postoperative complications and endocrine dysfunction of the pancreas.
