Тенденції і фактори формування та використання доходів страхової компанії
Authors: Покорчак С. А. , Смірнова Т. О. 
Published: November 2022

Жодна діяльність неможлива без належного планування своєї діяльності та фінансового забезпечення, але насамперед вона потребує такого ресурсу, як людина. Забезпечення потреб людства в умовах невпинної глобалізації та цифровізації, які підвищують і без того велику ймовірність несподіваних подій, лежать на плечах самих людей. Дії та вчинки тих, хто поставив себе в центрі світу, не завжди можна точно спрогнозувати чи взагалі передбачити. Єдиний вірний прогноз, який постійно збувається – це збільшення частоти та масштабності кризових явищ. За таких умов, коли все від всього залежить, роль страхових компаній у світі зростає, а ще більше посилюється важливість їхньої готовності до випробувань, які підготували час та саме людство. Саме тому питання формування та використання страховими компаніями своїх доходів є особливо актуальними, адже на їхніх плечах лежить відповідальність забезпечення фінансового спокою у відверто неспокійні часи.
У цьому дослідженні розглянуто особливості функціонування підприємств, що надають страхові послуги. Висвітлено особливості стратегічного планування формування доходів страхових компаній. Коротко подано затверджені зміни в законодавстві України, яке регулює діяльність учасників страхового ринку України, та набуває чинності на наступний день після опублікування та повністю вводиться в дію через два роки. Виявлено зміни, що відбулися всередині вітчизняного страхового ринку за період опісля Революції Гідності. Проаналізовано дані стосовно динаміки: кількості страховиків на ринку, величини отриманих страхових премій, частки провідних компаній у сукупних доходах, а також прибутковості та збитковості страхових компаній України з урахуванням страхового продукту, на який вони мають відповідну законом узгоджену ліцензію чи ліцензії, з урахуванням причин, які впливають на процес формування доходів та на величину цих доходів. Ця стаття дає фундаментальну аналітичну складову для майбутніх детальніших досліджень обраної теми в період воєнного та післявоєнного стану України.
Using cognitive modeling to examine the effects of competition on strategy and effort in races and tournaments
Authors: Morgan Andrew J. , Neal Andrew , Ballard Timothy 
Published: November 2022

AbstractWe investigated the effects of two types of competition, races and tournaments (as well as an individual challenge and a do-your-best condition), on two different aspects of performance: effort and strategy. In our experiment, 100 undergraduate participants completed a simple cognitive task under four experimental conditions (in a repeated-measures design) based on different types of competitions and challenges. We used the Linear Ballistic Accumulator to quantify the effects of competition on strategy and effort. The results reveal that competition produced changes in strategy rather than effort, and that trait competitiveness had minimal impact on how people responded to competition. This suggests individuals are more likely to adjust their strategy in competitions, and the uncertainty created by different competition types influences the direction of these strategy adjustments.

Public Celebrations, the Other, and Emotional Responses. New approaches to the Iberian Royal entries in the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Period
Authors: Franco Llopis Borja , Orts-Ruiz Francesc 
Published: November 2022

Traditionally, when dealing with the study of urban celebrations in the Middle and Early Modern periods, historiography has accepted the concept of Gesamtkunstwerk to point out the magnificence and diversity of artistic expressions that were part of these ephemeral events. Without totally opposing this idea, reinforced by methodological currents such as the history of emotions, this paper aims to reflect on the concept of urban celebrations. We will provide new perspectives in the study of these performances, especially their short-lived nature, which prevented the people from having access to all the acts and messages that involved these events. To this end, we propose a new approach to documentary and literary sources, from the point of view of the analysis of the Muslim other. We study its visual representation as well as its role as a spectator and active participant, especially as a dancer or musician. This allows us to present a new methodological framework using Valencia as a case study.
Slave and convict: José Rufino Parra’s double sentence in the Antilles and mainland Spain
Authors: González-Ripoll Loles 
Published: November 2022

This paper addresses the adversities of a slave in 19th century Cuba who was considered dangerous because of his education; the suspicious claim of the owner; the slave’s arrest between Cuba, Spain, and Puerto Rico, and the defence of the rights to which he was entitled. The scant but interesting documentation on the misfortune of José Rufino Parra raises many issues regarding the daily relationships between masters and slaves; the unheard-of relationship between a black man and a white woman; the conservation of family honour, and the importance of education and family for slaves within an unjust colonial system, which, despite injustices, did offer opportunities to defend themselves.
Les networks et la tentation persistante de la « jiggle television » dans les années 1980
Authors: Campion Benjamin 
Published: November 2022

Selon Todd Gitlin, 1981 serait le point de départ d’une nouvelle ère télévisuelle américaine, délestée des traditionnelles comédies frivoles et des dramas à l’érotisme sans véritable fondement narratif. Le présent article vise à mettre à l’épreuve ce postulat en étudiant le rapport à la nudité et au sexe de quatre séries emblématiques des années 1980 : Magnum, P.I. (CBS, 1980-1988), The Fall Guy (ABC, 1981-1986), Miami Vice (NBC, 1984-1990) et Hunter (NBC, 1984-1991). Il s’agira également de discuter une hypothèse de Gitlin selon laquelle le passage aux années 1980 marquerait un début d’effacement du corps féminin au profit (plus ou moins revendiqué) d’une masculinité « triomphante », à la semi-nudité jugée de facto moins répréhensible. Faut-il y voir une prise de conscience collective se matérialisant par un refus de continuer à érotiser (voire à réifier) le corps féminin à la télévision américaine ?

Authors: Kumar Rabish , Singh Sarika , Chawla Rohit , Balhara Kirti , Dhar Lity 
Published: November 2022

ABSTRACT

Background:
As the world has been going through a pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) for the past two years, a safe and effective vaccine was urgently needed. Vaccination against the disease was launched in India on January 16, 2021 with healthcare workers, frontline workers, and the elderly above 60 years being the first beneficiaries. Vaccines being used in India are Covishield and Covaxin.

Materials and Methods:
Fifteen healthcare workers (HCWs) who were vaccinated with Covishield or Covaxin were included in the study, and T cell, B cell and antibody response of the HCWs were analyzed. Blood samples collected from every subject were sent for antibody analysis, hematological workup for cell counts, and flow cytometry was performed for various subsets of lymphocytes. Hematological variables in naïve HCWs (who never had any natural infection) and recovered HCWs (those recovered from natural infection) were compared.

Results:
Antibody index among recovered HCWs was significantly higher than the naïve HCWs. All the leucocyte parameters showed a higher median value in the recovered group except total leucocyte count (TLC), T helper cell count (Th cell), T helper cell to T cytotoxic cell (Th cell: CTL) ratio and natural killer (NK) cell. But only Th: CTL ratio showed a statistically significant difference.

Conclusion:
This study shows that the antibody index among individuals who had both vaccination and COVID-19 infection is significantly higher than those who just had vaccination. T helper cell to T cytotoxic cell ratio is lowered in the recovered HCWs as compared to the naïve HCWs and this finding is statistically significant.
Utility of reverse transcriptase – Multiplex ligation-dependant probe amplification (RT-MLPA) in the molecular classification of Diffuse Large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) by cell-of-origin (COO)

Published: November 2022

ABSTRACT
Classifying diffuse large B cell lymphomas, not otherwise specified (DLBCL, NOS), is based on their cell-of-origin (COO) which is included in the WHO classification (2016), is essential to characterize them better in context of prognostication. While gene expression profiling (GEP) considered the gold standard and more recently, the Nanostring-based approach, classify these tumors accurately, many laboratories with limited resources and instrumentation need an alternate approach that is reliable, inexpensive, and with a reasonable turnaround. The Reverse Transcriptase Multiplex Ligation Dependant Probe Amplification (RT-MLPA) to subtype DLBCL, NOS cases, as designed by CALYM group appears to provide a good alternative but needs to be validated in other centres. Therefore, this study evaluated DLBCL, NOS and compared the results of RT-MLPA to that obtained by immunohistochemistry using the Hans algorithm.

Materials and Methods:
Sixty-five DLBCL, NOS cases were included and the RT-MLPA was set up and standardized using probes that were designed by the CALYM study group. Briefly, RNA was extracted converted to cDNA and the 21-gene expression classifier that also included probes to detect MYD88 mutations and EBER mRNA was performed by MLPA. The results were analyzed by the open home grown software designed by the same group and compared to the results obtained by IHC.

Results:
Forty-four of the sixty-five cases provided concordant results (k = 0.35) and if the MYD88 results were to be used as a classifier the concordance would have improved from 67.7% to 82%. The 21 discordant cases were divided into five categories to provide a possible explanation for the discordance. Further 26% and 31% of the samples tested were positive for MYD88 mutations and EBER mRNA, respectively. The test had a turnaround of three days.

Conclusion:
The test provided moderate (67.7%) concordance when compared with IHC and perhaps would have provided higher concordance if compared with GEP. The test also has the advantage of providing information on the MYD88 and EBV infection status. It was found to be reliable, easy to perform and standardize, requiring only routine instruments available in most molecular laboratories. The RT-MLPA assay therefore provides an alternative for laboratories that would require subtyping of DLBCL, NOS cases in the absence of an access to GEP or other instrument intensive methods.

Authors: Kaur Karamjot , Mohi Manjit Kaur , Chopra Dimple , Sarangal Rishu , Singh Saini Jatinder Raj , Chopra Preeyati 
Published: November 2022

Background:
The skin and mucosa of the vulva are different from the rest of the human body, as it is derived from all three embryological layers. It is more prone to dermatological diseases, both infectious and noninfectious.

Aims and Objectives:
Our study was a prospective descriptive study on female patients attending the skin outpatient department with complaints of vulval dermatoses. Our aim was to determine the prevalence of venereal and nonvenereal dermatoses (infectious and non-infectious) along with age-wise distribution of these in our area.

Materials and Methods:
All female patients presenting with visible skin lesions on the vulva from January 2019 to December 2019 were included in this study. Various diagnostic tests such as Gram staining, Tzanck smear, KOH mount, herpes simplex virus serology, and skin biopsy were performed wherever necessary.

Observations and Results:
The study included 520 patients in whom 525 lesions were identified. These were grouped under venereal and non-venereal dermatoses. Nonvenereal dermatoses were further grouped under infectious and non-infectious conditions. Maximum patients were in the age group of 21–40 years (50.19%). The most common dermatoses were non-venereal infections, seen in 220 (42.30%) patients followed by non-venereal, non-infectious dermatoses seen in 177 (34.04%) patients whereas venereal dermatoses were seen in 128 (24.61%) patients.

Conclusion:
Most of the patients were in the reproductive age group, and the prevalence of infectious dermatoses both venereal and non-venereal was much more than that of non-infectious conditions affecting the vulval skin as per our study.

Published: November 2022

Background:
According to the World Health Organization, 6 million cases of syphilis occur every year. Serological tests for syphilis form the mainstay of diagnosis for syphilis. We evaluated the performance of point-of-care test (POCT) against other specific treponemal test for confirming the diagnosis of syphilis.

Materials and Methods:
Does performance and operational superiority of POCT make it the investigation of choice in confirming syphilis? Retrospectively, data were analyzed of 599 serum samples from Apex Regional sexually transmitted disease centre, Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, received for testing by syphilis treponemal assays (both nontreponemal reactive and nonreactive). These samples underwent treponemal testing for syphilis by the Treponema pallidum hemagglutination (TPHA), fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption test (FTA-ABS), and POCT. Performance characteristics (sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value [PPV], negative predictive value [NPV], and diagnostic accuracy), and operational characteristics of POCT and TPHA were evaluated against the gold standard FTA-ABS.

Results:
A total of 599 samples were evaluated, of which 61.76% were positive by FTA-ABS. On analysis, the sensitivity was 91.08% and 91.89%, specificity was 89.08% and 87.34%, PPV was 93.09% and 92.14%, NPV was 86.08% and 86.96%, and diagnostic accuracy was 90.32% and 90.15% for POCT and TPHA, respectively. The lower cost, shorter turnaround time, lesser infrastructure and workforce need, and easy availability make the POCT operationally superior to TPHA.

Conclusion:
Owing to its operational superiority and higher specificity POCT can replace TPHA for confirming the diagnosis of Syphilis. POCT are affordable, equipment free, have room temperature storage, and yield result within 15 minutes, enabling same day testing and treatment. It can be used in a resource limited setting, for community setup or even self-testing.

Published: November 2022

Background:
Obesity is a worldwide health problem and is of particular importance in Saudi Arabia, where there is a high incidence of the disease. There are many surgical procedures for its management, including laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). However, this procedure has postoperative complications such as bleeding and leakage.

Patients and Methods:
This retrospective cohort study included all patients who underwent LSG at King Khalid University Hospital under one surgeon from July 2015 to May 2018. The 146 patients were divided into a clipping group (n = 72) who underwent LSG with clipping of the staple line, and a nonclipping group (n = 74) who underwent LSG without clipping of the staple line. The incidence of postoperative complications, including bleeding and leak, was compared in the two groups.

Results:
There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding patient demographic criteria or risk factors for postoperative complications. In addition, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in postoperative bleeding (P = 1) or leak (P = 0.324).

Conclusion:
Clipping the staple line in LSG does not affect the rate of postoperative leaking or bleeding.

Published: November 2022

With the growth of productivity in the body of animals there is an intensification of metabolic processes, which are greatly influenced by microelements, since they are their active participants. As a result of more efficient use of dietary nutrients, livestock production on the same feed is significantly increased. The article is devoted to the study of the patterns of the course of digestive processes in the rumen of young cattle and the metabolism in the body when feeding various forms of cobalt in the diet. It was found that the inclusion of cobaltous acetate in the compound feed for young cattle aged 3-6 months had no significant effect on the processes of ruminal digestion.
All indices were within physiological norms. There was a tendency to increase the daily live weight gain by 3.1% with a decrease in the cost of feed to obtain it by 2.8%.
EFFECT OF DIFFERENT CONTENTS OF NEUTRAL DETERGENT AND ACID DETERGENT FIBER IN THE DIET OF ANIMALS DURING THE FIRST PHASE OF LACTATION ON RUMINAL DIGESTION
Authors: KUREPIN A. A. 
Published: November 2022

The main limiting factor in the consumption by ruminants of large quantities of bulk feed is the presence of fiber in plants, an increase in which above the optimal level has a negative impact on digestion, leading to a decrease in the digestibility of nutrients in the diet. By changing the structure of the diet and the ratio of nutrients in the diet, it is possible to stimulate or inhibit both the general nature of rumen processes and the level of nutrient utilization. This article presents the materials of the work aimed at studying the effect of different content of neutral detergent and acid detergent fiber in the diet of animals during the first phase of lactation on ruminal digestion.
Studies showed that feeding cows of control and experimental groups in the first 100 days of lactation with diets with different content of structural carbohydrates predetermined some changes in the microbiological and enzymatic activity of ruminal digestion.
BREED-SPECIFIC FEATURES OF MICROSATELLITE DNA OF RIDING HORSES BRED IN BELARUS
Authors: HERMAN A. I. , RUDAK A. N. 
Published: November 2022

Molecular-genetic identification of genes in horse breeding allows the targeted formation of the genetic structure of the population of horses of riding breeds, which will significantly improve the efficiency of selection work. The article presents the
materials of the work in which the breed-specific features of microsatellite DNA of riding horses bred in Belarus were studied. It has been found that a higher level of genetic diversity compared to animals of the Hanoverian breed is inherent in halfbreed sport horses, in the genotypes of which 131 alleles were typed. Hanoverian horses were characterized by somewhat lower allelic diversity, but had a distinctive genetic profile, with rare alleles at thirteen loci detected. Thus, the data on genetic
diversity will allow a more reasonable approach to the problem of stocking farms with animals with different alleles in order to maintain the genetic structure characteristic of a particular breed.
