is article examines the religious policy of the Bolsheviks in the Melekeska-ya Diocese (Ulyanovsk region) in the 1930s, focusing on the persecution of the Orthodox clergy and believers. The author analyzes the reasons for these persecutions, such as the transforma-tion of the religious landscape in the region, Soviet legislation, and the behavior of local authori-ties. The position of the Church during this period is also studied, including its attempts to defend its rights within the framework of the law on freedom of conscience. The study is based on nor-mative and legislative acts that describe the Bolsheviks’ policy towards religion, as well as sourc-es related to the church life in the Melekeskaya Diocese. The author notes the aggressiveness of the repressions by local authorities against the Orthodox clergy and active believers, as well as the response of the Church structures to these actions. The research highlights the complexity of the religious situation within Orthodoxy, caused by the presence of various opposition groups and the zeal of local authorities. The presented data allows for a better understanding of the na-ture of religious persecution and its impact on the church life of the Melekeskaya Diocese during the Soviet era. The conclusions of the article are based on the study of available sources and pro-vide an assessment of the aggressive nature of the Bolsheviks’ religious policy in the Melekeska-ya Diocese in the 1930s

Cultivation of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) often encounters challenges, particularly in intensive farming systems, where low feed efficiency adversely affects growth performance. Therefore, solutions to enhance both growth and feed efficiency are required. One promising approach is the supplementation of butyric acid in feed. The benefits of butyric acid supplementation on growth performance and gut health in mammals and poultry have been well-documented. However, information on its effects on Nile tilapia remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effects and determine the optimal dose of a microencapsulated sodium butyrate (30%) product on the production performance of Nile tilapia. The experiment was conducted over 75 days to assess production performance parameters. Feeding was carried out three times daily at 3-5% of body weight per day with commercial feed containing 25-30% protein. Sodium butyrate (30%) was added to the feed in the treatment ponds at doses of 0% (0 g/kg feed), 0.1% (1 g/kg feed), 0.2% (2 g/kg feed), and 0.3% (3 g/kg feed), with additional oil used as a binder. The results showed that supplementation of 30% sodium butyrate to the feed improved the growth performance of Nile tilapia, with the best results observed at a dose of 2 g/kg feed.

Budidaya ikan nila (Oreochromis sp.) kerap menghadapi tantangan, terutama dalam sistem pemeliharaan intensif, di mana efisiensi pakan yang rendah berdampak negatif pada pertumbuhan ikan. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan solusi untuk meningkatkan pertumbuhan dan efisiensi pakan. Salah satu pendekatan yang dapat dilakukan adalah suplementasi asam butirat dalam pakan. Manfaat suplementasi asam butirat terhadap kinerja pertumbuhan dan kesehatan saluran pencernaan pada mamalia dan unggas telah banyak dilaporkan. Namun, informasi mengenai efeknya pada ikan nila masih terbatas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efek dan menentukan dosis optimal produk sodium butirat mikroenkapsulasi (30%) terhadap kinerja pertumbuhan ikan nila. Percobaan dilakukan selama 75 hari untuk mengukur parameter kinerja produksi. Pakan diberikan tiga kali sehari sebanyak 3-5% dari bobot tubuh per hari menggunakan pakan komersial dengan kandungan protein 25-30%. Sodium butirat (30%) ditambahkan ke pakan pada kolam perlakuan dengan dosis 0% (0 g/kg pakan), 0,1% (1 g/kg pakan), 0,2% (2 g/kg pakan), dan 0,3% (3 g/kg pakan), dengan tambahan minyak sebagai perekat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa suplementasi sodium butirat (30%) dalam pakan meningkatkan kinerja pertumbuhan ikan nila, dengan hasil terbaik diperoleh pada dosis 2 g/kg pakan.
Applying Internal Control Concepts Using Database Design: An Educational Case
Authors: Mascha Maureen Francis , Miller Cathleen L. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
This paper discusses a project that incorporates internal controls concepts and Access database design. The project consists of two parts—a written exercise and the database table creation. In part one (the written exercise), students match fields, threats, data entry controls, and Access property controls for the sales order entry activity from the revenue cycle using the sales order as the transaction. In part two, students create two data file tables designed to prevent and detect errors and threats at the field level of internal controls for the sales order entry transaction. The written exercise significantly improved the overall project scores. The linking of fields, threats, data entry controls, and Access property controls led to better Access table development. We also measured the students' internal control knowledge before and after the project, finding that students' knowledge of general and specific internal controls improved after completing the project. They also improved their database knowledge of Access.
Epigenetic effects of four nutraceutical products on human liver cells
Authors: Davis Catherine , Davis Paul , Gubler Daniel 
Published: January 2025

Background: There are numerous botanical extracts and fractions that have been shown to have a diverse range of bioactivities. Many nutraceutical products and food supplements contain phytochemicals - often multiple numbers of them as constituents of a single product. There is a paucity of data on the net bioactivities of these multi-component products. This paper reports the effects of four such products on the expression of six genes that are critical to the maintenance of good health.
Objectives: We investigated several products that contain a number of constituents derived from plant species as well as essential minerals on the biochemical activities of liver cells in culture. The combination of these bioactives into one product results in multiple strong biological effects. Examples of these are presented in this paper with a discussion of how the constituents have provided this effect.
Methods: The expression of six genes (ppar-α, glp-1, bdnf, sirt-1, nrf1, sod-1) in a human liver cell line (THLE-2 cells) were cultured for 24 hours in the presence of Vitalité, Reviv, Revíve and Collagène (products from THREE International). The RNA was isolated from these cells and from the control unsupplemented cells. The levels of transcripts of these genes in these isolates were measured by RT-PCR. The changes in the concentrations of the mRNA from the supplemented cells were compared with those from reference cells.
Results: Of the four products, Revíve boosted the transcription of the glp-1, the bdnf, the sirt-1, the nrf1, and the sod-1 genes. Éternel boosted the transcription of ppar-α, and the sod-1 genes. Vitalité increased the transcription of the glp-1, the bdnf, the nrf1, and the sod-1 genes. Collagène stimulated the expression of the bdnf, and the sod-1 genes. The use of nutraceutical products, either as a complement or as a substitute for pharmaceuticals, has been receiving increased attention for maintaining good health. These products are multi-component. Evidence for their clinical efficacy is frequently lacking.
Conclusion: The results of this project provide evidence that the phytochemicals in the four products investigated can provide the bio-effects that regulate the expression of key genes that control fundamental essential metabolic activities and so can justify the claims made for them.

Children’s Imitation and Word Creation in the Process of Language Acquisition
Authors: Trofimova N. A. , Shumilova S. A. 
Published: January 2025

Introduction. Since language acquisition is a gradual process, younger children have gaps in their mental grammar and mental lexicon. In order to be understood well while communicating with other people, they sometimes resort to creating new words, known as innovations, which remain unusual for the language norm. This article expounds the nature of children’s speech innovations and presents the analysis of their constructing.Methodology and sources. The research is based on data gathered within psycholinguistic experiment with participation of Russian-speaking children from three to six years of age. Such experimental methods of psycholinguistics research as picture description and story retelling were used.Results and discussion. It was found out that despite formal abnormality of speech innovations they are getting constructed according to rules existing in the language. Thus, innovations may include standard morphological units, which are combined with nonstandard ones with regard to their distributional features and restrictions. It means that morphemes commonly appearing, for example, on verbs will be used by children within this lexical category only. Moreover, a gradual increasing complexity of constructed forms is observed occurring with the age.Conclusion. Speech innovations cannot be conceived as errors, as they are constructed based on children’s knowledge about the language system and contain standard elements. Innovations analysed in this paper might be used for larger-scale studies on language acquisition and remain supplementary material for researches in this area.
Modern Artistic Space: the Problem of Anthropological and Aesthetic Transformation
Authors: Kapichina E. A. 
Published: January 2025

Introduction. The problem of analyzing the contemporary artistic space has its own evolution, its genesis is reduced to understanding different kinds of transformations in relation to the traditional art as a form of creative perception of reality based on spiritual values. As a result of the evolution of the creative process, most of the contemporary art practices, especially conceptual ones, «expel» anthropological and aesthetic origins from art. To understand why do such processes occur in the field of low-aesthetic reality, the author analyzes the problem of anthropological and aesthetic transformation of modern art, the main trends and place of a person in the contemporary artistic process.Methodology and sources. The author uses, first, hermeneutic methodology of analysis of artistic texts and conceptual approaches of authors; secondly, a set of artistic-aesthetic and artistic-historical methods aimed at identifying and generalizing materials, Dedicated to specific works of art; and, thirdly, philosophical-anthropological methodical analysis of the postmodern cultural situation and place of a person.Results and discussion. As a result of the discussions it was revealed that the characteristics of the current elitist conceptual practices of the postmodern period are: pluralism and offbeat from any canons; frank citation and borrowing; conceptualization of any gestures of the artist; the multiplicity of interpretations; multi-level perception; rejection of imagery; experimenting with new forms; creating the illusion of a «game of reality»; irony, pastiche, black humor and shock value; and finally, the author’s death and the loss of one’s own «I».Conclusion. In modern culture conceptualism becomes an articularized form of expression of the artistic consciousness of postmodernism. As art moves beyond its boundaries, it completely transforms its ontological foundations, then its anthropological core disappears and the author’s «death» occurs. The products of conceptual creativity are some kind simulacrums of language, style or symbols, which simulate pre-existing human values. Such art neantisates person with traditional values, perverts the meaning of creativity itself, transforms the aesthetic and the anthropological attitudes of the creative process.
“Thanatopolitics” in the Socio-Political Discourse in the 2000s and 2020s: between the “Living Dead” and “Necrosociality”
Authors: Rotov I. M. 
Published: January 2025

Introduction. Over the past twenty years, the terms “thanatopolitics”, “necropolitics”, “necroeconomics”, etc. have been actively used in socio-political discourse. But the definitions of these meanings remain blurred. In the last 4–5 years, they can be found in Russian-language articles, as well as in the public space of blogs and YouTube channels. Often, the use of these terms is associated with biased statements by authors from a nonacademic environment. The purpose of this article is to identify the area of use of the term “thanatopolitics” in the academic literature of recent years.Methodology and sources. The study was carried out in the logic of the genealogical approach. The main subject of interest is gaps in discourse, when the same or similar terms are filled with new content or receive new interpretations. The analysis of English-language articles in the fields of political philosophy, critical theory, literary studies, gender studies, history and economics was carried out. It is in this linguistic and problematic field that the term has acquired definitions that are relevant today.Results and discussion. Two approaches can be distinguished in English-language academic literature: 1) thanatopolitics – institutionalized state violence, unethical management technologies that allow the sovereign to convert death on his territory into resources and legitimacy. The authors who adhere to this approach to the problem use the concept of “necropolitics” instead of “thanatopolitics”, but there are exceptions. They rely on the essay of the same name by A. Mbembe and engage in leftist criticism of specific examples of neocolonialism; 2) thanatopolitics – the creation of social connections through the production of knowledge about threats to immanent life. The phenomenon when a community is formed due to the fact that it can disappear at any moment. This approach to the problem of thanatopolitics is typical for researchers of artistic culture and modern digital media.Conclusion. The authors who use the term “thanatopolitics” and other terms related in their work study the power-death-knowledge dispositif. But its presence in the text cannot be an unambiguous marker of the researcher's position. Sometimes the choice of this term is a marker of critical attacks against specific political decisions of the state. But the authors who study the horizontal social connections generated by knowledge about death also write about “thanatopolitics”.
Reputation and Image from the Perspective of Management Sociology
Authors: Shutova M. V. 
Published: January 2025

Introduction. The digital world is reshaping established realities by enabling social entities to manifest in the online world. Within this evolving framework, reputation increasingly detaches from the individual being assessed, influencing both the dynamics of social interactions and the norms that develop through these exchanges. Concurrently, an individual’s virtual identity has gained prominence, often rivaling the importance of their real-world image. As research interest in concepts of image and reputation grows, the tendency to use these terms interchangeably becomes notable. This convergence highlights the need to clarify and differentiate the meanings of these abstractions under examination.Methodology and sources. This study employs sociological, socio-psychological, linguistic, and interdisciplinary methodologies, drawing on specialized literature, scientific research, and online resources. These sources facilitate an examination of the concepts of image and reputation within the digital society, analyzed through the lens of management sociology.Results and discussion. The analysis of the concept of “image” reveals its intrinsic connection to visual perception and its role as a purposefully constructed and relatively stable phenomenon, based on stereotypes of mass consciousness. Image, as an artificially created symbolic construct, is directed at a specific audience, aiming to guide the perception of that audience in a predetermined manner. Its function is to distinctly define and differentiate an object, while simultaneously shaping audience expectations. In contrast, reputation is not entirely within the subject’s control and cannot be deliberately crafted. It emerges organically from the exchange of opinions and public discourse, serving primarily as an evaluation based on comparing expectations and the outcomes of interactions with individuals or organizations.Conclusion. A sociological examination of the concepts of image and reputation has uncovered intersections across multidisciplinary research and highlighted the distinct sociological dimensions of each. An image, in essence, functions as a simulacrum crafted by the subject to position its object as desirable and engaging for the public. In contrast, reputation emerges as a verbalized evaluation shaped through social interaction within a pragmatic context, acting in the digital society as a tool for modulating control. The image functions as an “entry point”, drawing attention from audiences unfamiliar with its subject. Within a culturally and pragmatically relevant context, image and reputation can synergize effectively to advance the agent's interests. However, conflicts between symbols that image conveys, the expectations it constructs, and the experiences informing reputation may undermine the latter.

Published: January 2025

Objective: Virtual reality (VR) therapies have increasingly been adopted across medical fields, including neurorehabilitation for stroke recovery. Evidence from several systematic reviews (SRs) was explored, covering different aspects. We aim to explore overlaps, gaps, and trends of SRs focusing on VR stroke rehabilitation providing a foundation for improving the field and addressing limitations.Methods: We moved from a recent overview of reviews, searching multiple databases for all published SRs and the international database of prospectively registered SRs (PROSPERO) for ongoing SRs. Data extraction of study characteristics and methodological quality of SRs using AMSTAR 2 were obtained from a recent overview of reviews. Two independent reviewers analyzed trends in published SRs, their included primary studies, ongoing SRs, and methodological quality.Results: The data set included 58 SRs, with 345 primary studies and 45 ongoing SRs, published between 2007 and 2022. The number of published and ongoing SRs significantly increased over time (R2 = 0.8654; R2 = 0.747, respectively). In the last three years, Asia accounts for the majority of publications (31%). The main outcome assessed over time was upper extremity function and activity in 67.2% of SRs. Most of the published SRs were judged “critically low” (77.6%). The number of included studies increased over time reaching a median of 17 studies with a median of 493 participants.Conclusions: In stroke rehabilitation, the published and ongoing SRs on VR have risen over time in terms of the number of publications, with some concerns about methodological quality and representation of countries around the world.
