Objective: to identify clinical data and treatment methods for COPD patients on the third level of medical care, and assess their correlations with exacerbations, the fatigue syndrome, and patient adherence to treatment. Materials and methods. We examined 330 patients with diagnosed COPD. We collected case records, assessed drugs and routes of administration, established results of clinical and laboratory studies, smoking status, and compliance. Results. GOLD-III and type D spirometry disorders prevailed. Frequent exacerbations were typical for patients with high mMRC and CAT scores and low FEV1 values. The proportion of adherent patients was 29.4%. Patients with frequent exacerbations, decreased FEV1, and pronounced symptoms were more adherent to treatment. COPD patients received short-acting bronchodilators (85.5%), ICS/LABA (54.5%), and dual long-acting bronchodilators (18.8%). The fatigue syndrome was established using the FAS questionnaire in 61.9% of patients. Patients with significant levels of fatigue were predominantly of the older age, often with FEV1 of 50% or less of the due value, more pronounced clinical symptoms by the CAT and mMRC scale, two or more exacerbation episodes, and concomitant diseases. Conclusion. COPD patients treated on the third level had lower adherence to treatment, poor skills in inhalation technique and control, and they excessively used short-acting bronchodilators. The present study confirmed the expediency of simultaneous use of two classifications of COPD and the necessity to assess fatigue levels during management of COPD patients.

In order to improve psychological assistance to male patients with newly diagnosed infiltrative pulmonary TB we studied associations between patient adherence to treatment and personal features of these patients. We supplemented a standard clinical study of hospitalized patients with the author’s method of screening of patient adherence (Lebedev Yu.I. et al., patent no. RU2611398C1). Its results were matched to psychological personal features of 62 male patients with infiltrative pulmonary TB at the time of diagnosis. We established that negative associations between patient adherence and such features as tension, confrontation, distancing, escape-avoidance, aggression, hostility, and negativism might be considered as predictors of unfavourable course of TB and should be targets for psychological impact during treatment. On the other hand, positive associations between patient adherence and such coping strategies as decision-making, positive reassessment, general internality, and the indicators of health, mood, and resilience might be considered as positive predictive signs.

Objective: a comparative study of psychological features of patients with different types of tolerance to TB chemotherapy. Materials and methods. We studied psychological features of 68 patients with newly diagnosed pulmonary TB aged 34.0 ± 10.1 years, out of them were 53 female (77.9%) and 15 male (22.1%) patients. Psychological features and life quality was studied before TB chemotherapy using the Symptom Checklist-90-R (SCL-90-R) and the SF-36 questionnaire. Tolerance to TB drugs was assessed by the attending physician using standard clinical and laboratory studies. Results. Adverse reactions to TB drugs were observed in 52 out of 68 patients (76.5%), and 16 patients (23.5%) had satisfactory tolerance to TB drugs. Different psychological disorders were diagnosed in 25 out of 68 patients (36.8%), a positive psychological status was observed in 43 out of 68 patients (63.2%). The matching of psychological features and TB drug tolerance revealed that patients with the positive psychological status prevailed in the group without adverse reactions to TB drugs as compared to those with adverse reactions (87.5% vs 55.8%, р < 0.01). The number of patients with the negative psychological status in the first group was significantly less as compared to the group with adverse reactions (12.5% vs 44.2%, р < 0.01). The level of physical, emotional functions, life activity, and mental health was significantly lower in patients with adverse reactions. Conclusion. The present study has demonstrated psychological aspects of tolerance to TB drug. Patients with the negative psychological status should be referred to the potential risk group for adverse reactions to TB drugs. The complex of basic therapeutic activities for this category of patients should include psychological rehabilitation aimed to recover psychological resources and adaption potential of the personality

‘In the Name of the Family’: The Evangelical Caucus and Rights Rollbacks in Brazil
Authors: de Souza Santos Andreza Aruska 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter explores how some religious organisations have created a powerful bloc – and countermovement – capable of rolling back rights championed by social movements. I argue that right-against-rights countermovement promote politicians both within and outside church structures to influence political outcomes in efforts to rollback abortion rights and LGBTQI rights. A key argument is that LGBTQI rights pose a key threat to the Christian families. Evangelical structures such as the one presented in this chapter can use such arguments in the making of political leaders. However, the argument of the chapter is that competing views on what is a family and how to defend its structure exist in Brazilian society and in the church. Because of that, when centring political efforts on debates around the topic, often church followers tilt against windmills – fighting enemies that do not exist – sensing a ‘moral panic’. After presenting this argument, the chapter concludes by discussing the future of church politics in Brazil.
The Violent Rollback of Indigenous and Environmental Rights: The Emblematic Case of Lenca Leader Berta Cáceres in Honduras
Authors: Tapias Torrado Nancy R. 
Published: September 2023

AbstractThis chapter examines a right-against-rights mobilisation that led to the murder of the Indigenous human rights defender Berta Cáceres. Her killing was the consolidation of many threats and acts of reprisal for her leading role in defending the Lenca People from the abuses committed in connection to the Agua Zarca hydroelectric dam project in Honduras. These attacks were part of the tactics and dynamics of an alliance of neoliberal, uncivil, and state actors that used ‘veto power’ to halt human rights change. The chapter explores the who, when, why, how, and what behind this alliance and its impact. The chapter also highlights that despite the violence used by these powerful groups, they do not always succeed in their efforts to reverse human rights.
Crying and Affixing the Law
Authors: der Weduwen Arthur 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter investigates the practical mechanisms of state communication at the level of the municipality, by focussing on the roles and duties of town criers and bell-ringers, and the curious emergence of the aanplakker (the town ‘poster-upper’) as a municipal official. It makes use of archival sources from towns around the Netherlands, focussing in particular on the cities of Amsterdam, Haarlem, Leiden, Utrecht, Leeuwarden and Groningen. The chapter includes a rich array of visual sources to demonstrate the ubiquitous presence of state communication in the Dutch cityscape. It also discusses ‘the politics of affixing’ – the contention surrounding the ceremony of pasting up the law in public, and the attempts by citizens to display their disagreement by tearing down printed posters, or posting up their own.
Printing and Selling the Law
Authors: der Weduwen Arthur 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter delves into the production of government broadsheets and pamphlets, focussing on their design, development over time and the municipal and state printers responsible for them. It explores the financial aspect of the production of government print through an examination of municipal account books, which elucidate the rates of pay, the profit margins and the likely size of the market for official print. Reconstructing the actual output of printed ordinances takes centre stage here, as what survives comprises only a fraction of what was originally published. The chapter also investigates the reprinting of ordinances by non-official printers and the broader commercial market for government print. This commercial market has never before been investigated, but this chapter demonstrates that it was substantial, indicating that seeing the law in print was not merely a strategy of communication for the authorities, but a phenomenon driven equally by popular demand.
Print and the Ommelander Troubles
Authors: der Weduwen Arthur 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter considers how Dutch authorities used printed placards and pamphlets to target, attack and defeat their domestic political opponents. While official print is often regarded as a means of communication between the authorities and their citizens, this chapter demonstrates that the authorities regularly invited public participation in domestic politics by publishing their nominally secret letters and memoranda, supposedly destined only for the eyes of those in the regent class. It focusses mostly on a case study, that of the lengthy political conflict between the magistrates of Groningen and the Council of Ommelanden, the two constituent parts of the States of Groningen. It demonstrates the importance of public communication to the conflict itself, but also to the national attention paid by other regents to the dispute, which became a major obstacle to federal policy making.
Their High Mightinesses Turn Newsmongers
Authors: der Weduwen Arthur 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter explores further how the authorities manipulated information in the public sphere by focussing on the commercial news market. The States General were prolific publishers of news reports, especially during times of political turbulence or war, and played a leading role in the market for printed newspapers, pamphlets and illustrated broadsheets. They directed their official printers to publish such news, while they also offered large financial incentives for other printers to produce laudatory or celebratory news. The authorities were also adept at using prayer and thanksgiving days, held by the Reformed Church, to shape the reception of important news events. Aside from offering a general overview of the engagement with the news market, this chapter develops an in-depth case study by focussing on official news manipulation during the Second Anglo-Dutch War (1665-1667), which forced the authorities to deal with publicising both naval triumphs and shattering defeats.
Pamphlet Wars and Declarations
Authors: der Weduwen Arthur 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Although Prince William III was the undisputed leader of the Republic between 1672 and his death in 1702, he was still forced to engage in lengthy political battles with the regents of the Republic, most notably in Holland. This chapter concentrates on two major case studies: the pamphlet exchanges of 1683-1684 concerning the size of the Dutch army, and the invasion of England of 1688. In the first case, William III was defeated by the burgomasters of Amsterdam, and outmanoeuvred by the wily ambassador of France, the Comte d’Avaux. This humiliating episode provided William with inspiration for what would arguably be one of the greatest publicity coups of the seventeenth century: the recasting of the Dutch invasion of England of 1688 as the Glorious Revolution. Special attention is paid to William’s Declaration, printed amidst great secrecy in tens of thousands of copies for audiences in Britain and on the Continent. This chapter brings together themes from the rest of the book to consider how state communication played a critical role in both of these case studies.
The Prince Is Dead, Long Live the Republic
Authors: der Weduwen Arthur 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The final chapter reflects on the death of Prince William III in 1702, the imposition of another Stadtholderless period, and the gradual decline of the Dutch Republic as a major international power after the Treaty of Utrecht (1713), up to the significant political revolutions of the 1740s. The eighteenth-century Dutch Republic is often regarded as a state afflicted by political stalemate. This chapter considers to what extent the communication strategies of the authorities developed during this period, and what role they played in an increasingly divided state, in which many citizens felt that the republican ideal that held together the Dutch Republic was being abandoned by the regent class.
The Norse Syllable Controversy
Authors: Goering Nelson 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
This chapter outlines two approaches to characterising syllable weight in Old Norse. One, dubbed the coda-maximalisation approach, divides the syllables of words such as grasi ‘grass’ (dative singular) and landi ‘land’ (dative singular) as gras-i and land-i. Syllables with two moras, such as gras-, are counted as ‘light’, and those with three or more as ‘heavy’. The other approach, the sonority-based view, divides the syllables as gra-si and lan-di, counting single-mora syllables as light and all others as heavy. The sonority-based view is defended on the basis of linguistic typology, vowel balance, manuscript word-divisions, and diachronic plausibility through comparison with other Germanic languages.
Benedetta Cappa Marinetti e Růžena Zàtkovà: due futuriste tra sperimentalismo e teosofia
Authors: Cigliani Simona 
Published: September 2023

Benedetta Cappa (1897–1977), wife of Filippo Tommaso Marinetti and a pupil of Giacomo Balla, was an artist, a writer, a theorist who made a significant contribution to the history of the avant-garde and to the artistic research of the early Twentieth Century. His pictorial and literary production is nourished by a strong idealistic aspiration, which finds support and inspiration in the contemporary milieu of esoteric irrationalism, whose different currents were well known even by many futurists. She herself, moreover, since her formative years, was in close contact with environments and personalities permeated with theosophical ideals, especially, among others, with the Bohemian artist Růžena Zàtkovà and with Balla himself.

The Effect of Corporate Social Responsibility on Financial Performance of Large Manufacturing Firms in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Authors: Legesse Robel Bogale , Wondwossen Jerene  
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a concurrent issue in the world. It is the integration of social, economic and environmental aspects in business operations. The main aim of the investigation was to examine the effect of CSR practice on financial performance of large manufacturing firms in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. In the study, to measure CSR, the dimensions such as, employee, customer, supplier, community, government and environmental-related practices of firms were used. Financial performance of large manufacturing firms was measured using ROA. Additionally, firm size was employed as a control variable to clearly understand the effect of CSR on ROA. The research was utilized explanatory research design and a quantitative research approach. The data obtained from 81 large manufacturing companies in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Stratified sampling method was applied to select the sample form 102 large manufacturing firms. Questionnaire and document analysis of audited financial statements served as data collection instruments. The study used multiple regression analysis model and Ordinary Least Square (OLS) parameters estimator. Based on the regression result, employee, community and government related CSR practice and firm size positively and significantly affect ROA. Suppliers’ related CSR practice has negative relationships and significant effect on ROA. Customers and environment related CSR activities have an insignificant effect on ROA. In general, large manufacturing firms are recommended to apply CSR initiatives to increase their productivity.

Hypervalency: a reality check
Authors: Rzepa Henry 
Published: September 2023

We have seen in the series of posts on the topic of hypervalency how the first row main group elements such as Be, B, C and N can sustain apparent hypercoordination and arguably hypervalency. The latter is defined not so much by expanding the total valence shell of electrons surrounding the hypervalent atom beyond eight, but in having more than four well defined bonds to it, as quantified by AIM and ELF analysis.
Feasibility Study of Drill Cuttings Slip Velocity Estimation using BBO DTM-Pade’ Semi-analytical Technique
Authors: Dbair Abdualhakim , Elfergani Mazen 
Published: September 2023

The study reviewed the use of DTM-Pade’ approximation method of Basset–Boussinesq–Oseen equation (BBO) in predicting particle slip velocity. A hypothetical example is used in the study with three different diameters, 3,5 and 7mm, of spherical particle assumed to represent wide rang of drill cuttings’ sizes. In addition, the drilling fluid is assumed to be incompressible fluid in stationary mode. The Pade’ approximation (K=20, [8 8]) is used, based on literature, in calculating slip velocities through 2 seconds time span. It is concluded that this technique is a practical mean of particle slip velocity prediction at high Pad’ orders using Matlab for a short period of time, around (o.1 to 0.2 seconds). However, BBO equation application range such as, single particle fall in infinite incompressible fluid, small particle size rang (less than 3mm), low particle to fluid density ratio (higher than 0.38), limits its application in oil well drilling operations. Moreover, the necessity of more factors considerations in simulating drilling operations including Non-Newtonian fluids, wall effect, and wide range of irregular shaped drill cuttings densities and sizes urges for the use of generalized BBO equation. In drilling operations, concisely, drill cuttings are usually mixed in the wellbore annulus and for more reliable predictions the application of more sophisticated techniques such as Machine Learning (MA) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) become indispensable.
Shuggie Bain: A novel of Child Abuse
Authors: Tiwari Janmejay Kumar 
Published: September 2023

Rejected by almost thirty publishers in the United States and the United Kingdom, Shuggie Bain won the Booker Prize for 2020. From the opening chapter, the novel seizes the booklover by the throat and doesn’t let go until it has wrung out all the crazily vacillating emotions — ecstasy, mourning, annoyance, disappointment, enthusiasm, longing, jealousy, abhorrence and a strange, gleaming love. In fact the novel brings forward a mother-child relationship and child abuse. These various emotions and feelings make the novel exhilarating experience of reading.
