Актуальність лінгвістичної експертизи мовлення у кримінальних справах щодо інкримінування погрози

This article is devoted to specific issues of the linguistic semantic and textual speech analysis in criminal cases regarding incrimination of threats. Currently, forensic expert classifies the means of threats identified in the speech message (text) submitted for research at a pragmatic level. In contrast to purely semantic analysis of statements (when information is affirmative), pragmatic approach makes it possible to investigate the speech act as an expression of the will of a person, his emotions and feelings, determine the message illocutionary content, establish the addressee’s reaction to the information expressed by the addressee, etc. The article purpose is to determine the role of linguistic speech analysis in criminal cases regarding the threat incrimination. The objects of such forensic examination include the texts of text messages, e-mails, postcards, conversations (in particular, phone), audio and video messages, public speeches, etc. Illocutions of threats in statements where lexemes are used in direct meanings, and the sentences have a complete form according to the syntactic structure, are established on the basis of general semantic and textual research. Analyzing communicative situations in which incomplete or indirect statements are used, that means phrases expressed in an indirect form, where the illocution of a threat can be determined through speech intentions, communicative intentions, subjective-modal verbalizers, etc., is necessary. Forensic expert  conclusions based on the results of linguistic speech analysis of is one of the powerful means of making a court decision and an important argument during the pre-trial investigation in criminal cases regarding threat incrimination.Статтю присвячено окремим питанням лінгвістичної се-мантико-текстуальної експертизи мовлення у кримінальних справах щодо інкримінування погрози. Станом на сьогодні за-соби погрози, виявлені у наданому на дослідження мовленнєво-му повідомленні (тексті), експерт класифікує на прагматич-ному рівні. На відміну від суто семантичного аналізування висловлювань (коли інформація має стверджувальний харак-тер), прагматичний підхід дає змогу дослідити мовленнєвий акт як виразник волевиявлення особи, її емоцій і почуттів, визначити іллокутивне наповнення повідомлення, установи-ти реакцію адресата на висловлену адресантом інформацію та ін. Мета статті полягає у визначенні ролі лінгвістичної експертизи мовлення у кримінальних справах щодо інкриміну-вання погрози. До об’єктів такої експертизи належать тек-сти смс-повідомлень, електронних листів, листівок, розмов (зокрема, телефонних), аудіо- та відеозвернень, публічних виступів та ін. Іллокуції погрози у висловлюваннях, де лексеми використано в прямих значеннях, а речення за синтаксичною будовою мають повну форму, установлюють на основі загаль-ного семантико-текстуального дослідження. Аналізування потребують комунікативні ситуації, у яких використано не-повні або непрямі висловлювання, тобто фрази, виражені у не-прямій формі, де іллокуцію погрози можна визначити через мовленнєві інтенції, комунікативні наміри, суб’єктивно-мо-дальні вербалізатори та ін. Висновок експерта за результата-ми лінгвістичної експертизи мовлення є одним із потужних засобів прийняття судового рішення і значеннєвим аргумен-том під час досудового розслідування у кримінальних справах щодо інкримінування погрози

Controversy and consensus on indications for sperm DNA fragmentation testing in male infertility: a global survey, current guidelines, and expert recommendations.

PURPOSE: Sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF) testing was recently added to the sixth edition of the World Health Organization laboratory manual for the examination and processing of human semen. Many conditions and risk factors have been associated with elevated SDF; therefore, it is important to identify the population of infertile men who might benefit from this test. The purpose of this study was to investigate global practices related to indications for SDF testing, compare the relevant professional society guideline recommendations, and provide expert recommendations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Clinicians managing male infertility were invited to take part in a global online survey on SDF clinical practices. This was conducted following the CHERRIES checklist criteria. The responses were compared to professional society guideline recommendations related to SDF and the appropriate available evidence. Expert recommendations on indications for SDF testing were then formulated, and the Delphi method was used to reach consensus. RESULTS: The survey was completed by 436 experts from 55 countries. Almost 75% of respondents test for SDF in all or some men with unexplained or idiopathic infertility, 39% order it routinely in the work-up of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), and 62.2% investigate SDF in smokers. While 47% of reproductive urologists test SDF to support the decision for varicocele repair surgery when conventional semen parameters are normal, significantly fewer general urologists (23%; p=0.008) do the same. Nearly 70% would assess SDF before assisted reproductive technologies (ART), either always or for certain conditions. Recurrent ART failure is a common indication for SDF testing. Very few society recommendations were found regarding SDF testing. CONCLUSIONS: This article presents the largest global survey on the indications for SDF testing in infertile men, and demonstrates diverse practices. Furthermore, it highlights the paucity of professional society guideline recommendations. Expert recommendations are proposed to help guide clinicians

Clinical features of post-COVID-19 period. Results of the international register “Dynamic analysis of comorbidities in SARS-CoV-2 survivors (AKTIV SARS-CoV-2)”. Data from 6-month follow-up

Aim. To study the clinical course specifics of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and comorbid conditions in COVID-19 survivors 3, 6, 12 months after recovery in the Eurasian region according to the AKTIV register. Material and methods.The AKTIV register was created at the initiative of the Eurasian Association of Therapists. The AKTIV register is divided into 2 parts: AKTIV 1 and AKTIV 2. The AKTIV 1 register currently includes 6300 patients, while in AKTIV 2 — 2770. Patients diagnosed with COVID-19 receiving in- and outpatient treatment have been anonymously included on the registry. The following 7 countries participated in the register: Russian Federation, Republic of Armenia, Republic of Belarus, Republic of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Republic of Moldova, Republic of Uzbekistan. This closed multicenter register with two nonoverlapping branches (in- and outpatient branch) provides 6 visits: 3 in-person visits during the acute period and 3 telephone calls after 3, 6, 12 months. Subject recruitment lasted from June 29, 2020 to October 29, 2020. Register will end on October 29, 2022. A total of 9 fragmentary analyzes of the registry data are planned. This fragment of the study presents the results of the post-hospitalization period in COVID-19 survivors after 3 and 6 months. Results. According to the AKTIV register, patients after COVID-19 are characterized by long-term persistent symptoms and frequent seeking for unscheduled medical care, including rehospitalizations. The most common causes of unplanned medical care are uncontrolled hypertension (HTN) and chronic coronary artery disease (CAD) and/or decompensated type 2 diabetes (T2D). During 3- and 6-month follow-up after hospitalization, 5,6% and 6,4% of patients were diagnosed with other diseases, which were more often presented by HTN, T2D, and CAD. The mortality rate of patients in the post-hospitalization period was 1,9% in the first 3 months and 0,2% for 4-6 months. The highest mortality rate was observed in the first 3 months in the group of patients with class II-IV heart failure, as well as in patients with cardiovascular diseases and cancer. In the pattern of death causes in the post-hospitalization period, following cardiovascular causes prevailed (31,8%): acute coronary syndrome, stroke, acute heart failure. Conclusion. According to the AKTIV register, the health status of patients after COVID-19 in a serious challenge for healthcare system, which requires planning adequate health system capacity to provide care to patients with COVID-19 in both acute and post-hospitalization period
