Research of Influence of Potassium-rich Diets on the Physical Performance of Students

The aim of the work is the scientific substantiation and experimental support of the expedience and use of potassium-cationic water for improving the bread quality and the study of the influence of potassium-rich diets on the physical performance of students. There was studied the influence of potassium cations on the activity of proteolytic enzymes of wheat flour. It was established, that at using potassium-cationic water, the output of wet gluten (35,1 %) essentially increases, at that the output of dry one (8,4 %) decreases to the same extent that is a positive factor in the bakery technology. It was proved that enriching the vital medium of bakery yeast by potassium cations essentially activates their ability to hydrolysis of maltose that favors activation of the process of gassing (Maltase activity – 35,1 min). The process of gassing influences the speed of dough-conduction and ready bread quality, especially volume (357,7, 100 g/ml), porosity (79,1 %) and crumb ability to compression (33,5 c.u.). It was established, that consumption of bread, produced on potassium-cationic water, favors the strengthening of the heart muscle tone, improvement of the general condition of the organism, especially, physical endurance and performance

Migration criminality in the modern megapolis: risk management

The existence interrelationship between migration and criminality is one of the controversial issues, rising in the discussion of migration processes. The authors propose to consider immigration criminality as a mass social, legal, socially dangerous phenomenon, consisting of the totality of crimes, committed by migrants in various spheres of life of the region, ensure personal and public safety of its population, public order. The risks of migration criminality in the modern Russian metropolis, as well as their perception and evaluation of representatives of society are the basis of appearance of social tension and can increase the level of conflict between local people and newcomers. Certain causes and conditions specific criminal activities, laying on the social, economic factors of migration exert a criminogenic influence on migrants. At the risk of the migration criminality the authors in their study propose to distinguish the extent possible danger caused by migration processes, directly affecting the stability and well-being crime, living in a certain area of people.The article also presents the main results of author’s sociological research of the risks of migration criminality, which are based on studies of subjective evaluations of residents of the Moscow megapolis and experts, representing 4 groups of experts: heads of departments of the Moscow government, representatives of public organizations, law enforcement agencies and the media. The risks of migration criminality have identified and described in the study. The performed analysis has allowed us to formulate the basic suggestions for minimizing the risks of migration criminality. These proposals require special attention and further scientific reflection with further improvement of the migration policy of Moscow

“Musil’s Discourse”: Some Aspects of a Linguistic Experiment

The article is devoted to the role of experiment in the process of discourse formation as a linguistic phenomenon. The object of the study is the discourse initiated by the largest Austrian writer of the twentieth century, Robert Musil. The aim of the study is a discursive analysis of the philological and literary-critical interpretations of the novel “A Man Without Qualities”, which is a central fragment of the “Musil’s Discourse”. It is noted that the Musil’s discourse unfolding during the century, is formed by numerous participants representing various groups of subjects: literary scholars, writers, cultural experts, psychologists and literary critics. Particular attention is paid to the bipolar structure of the Musil’s discourse as its main characteristic. It is shown that the leading German critic Marcel Reich- Ranicki set a new direction for the development of Musil’s discourse. The results of the analysis of Musil’s discourse at the level of its content, as well as at the levels of strategies and means of implementation are presented. The main strategies of the studied fragment of the discourse are identified - the deconstruction strategy and the conservation strategy, implemented in the tactics of invective, tactics of positive presentation and tactics of support. It is proved that the idea of the experiment laid down by Musil in the basis of the novel “A Man Without Qualities” is transposed to the Musil’s discourse as a whole and turns it into an object of experiment

Ethnonational discourse of migrants in social networks on the example of Tajik and Kyrgyz virtual communities on VK

The use of Russian-language social networks by migrants from Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan, primarily on VK, has increased significantly in recent years. This network has enabled easy communication both within and between ethnic communities. It has become a social space of ethno-national discourse with its own laws and rules of social interaction, including conflictogenic one. At the same time, publications on ethno-national discourse of Tajik and Kyrgyz migrants in social networks are practically absent in Russian scientific literature. In this regard, the authors have set a goal to identify the features of ethno-national discourse of Kyrgyz and Tajik migrants in the VK Russian-language social network during the conflict on the Kyrgyz-Tajik border. The empirical basis of the study was the results of online questionnaire survey of 400 migrant respondents from Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan and qualitative analysis of their posts with a vivid news agenda about the relationship between the two countries. The peculiarities of ethno-national discourse of migrants in social networks between Tajik and Kyrgyz virtual groups consisted in an attempt to understand the ongoing conflict. As a rule, the discussion has come down to finding someone to blame or calling for the cessation of hostilities. The analysis has showed that hating had been actively developing in virtual interaction between migrants. At the same time, conciliatory actions on the part of both diasporas have been observed. The results have showed the need for constant monitoring of ethno-national discourse of Tajik and Kyrgyz migrants in social networks, as virtual interaction can very likely lead to real conflicts between representatives of Tajik and Kyrgyz diasporas in Russia

Social aspects of industrial safety: current challenge

The paper discusses the importance of social aspects in industrial safety. Specifics of the Russian society, manifested in culture and set of population’s values cause underestimation of social constituents when breaking labor safety rules. At the same time, industrial infrastructure differs significantly from the environment, so safety in these conditions tends to change its essential characteristics. Governmental measures aimed at the improvement of industrial safety are insufficient. According to the study it is important to consider a technological environment as a field of human activity

Return Migration From Russia to Kyrgyzstan: Dynamics, Causes, and Structure

Received 9 April 2023. Accepted 25 July 2023. Published online 6 October 2023.The study’s significance lies in the need for comprehensive information on return labor migration from Russia to Kyrgyzstan and the profiles of return migrants, which would allow us to anticipate spatial mobility in the future. This is particularly relevant due to Russia’s interest in new migrants as essential labor force to address the demographic crisis. The Kyrgyzstani government also requires these data to prevent unemployment among return migrants. This paper aims to assess return migration dynamics and its structure, uncover the causes, goals, and reasons for recurrent migration to Russia, and examine the expectations of Russia’s social and migration policy during the special military operation. The empirical analytical base comprises the results of a questionnaire survey of 515 return migrants and focused in-depth interviews with 37 return migrants in Kyrgyzstan in October–November 2022, as well as a questionnaire survey of 425 labor migrants and focused interviews with 52 labor migrants in November–December 2022 in Moscow. The findings indicate that return migration is voluntary and spontaneous. The official estimate of the scope of return migration, as well as the prospects of labor migration to Russia after February 24th, 2022 and the imposition of anti-Russian sanctions, remains unclear. The structure of return migration aligns with the structure of labor migration in Russia in terms of gender, age, and employment sectors. The motivation behind the decision to return has a cumulative effect. However, most respondents cited personal and family issues as the main reasons for return migration. Approximately 30% of respondents, regardless of gender, attributed the special military operation and the worsening economic situation in Russia as reasons for returning to their home country. About 22% of respondents envision recurrent migration to Russia in the near future, while around 30% have not yet decided. Labor migrants seek institutional support from Russia, including assistance in preparing registration documents, social insurance provision, removal of administrative obstacles for employment, and the creation of favorable conditions for adaptation

Состояние и перспективы развития библиотек академических НИИ (на примере библиотек институтов Новосибирского научного центра СО РАН). Часть 1

The role and tasks of academic libraries are changing due to external factors, and among them is the atrophy of their function as the only information source. The authors analyze the survey of the Novosibirsk Scientific Center’s libraries related to the relevant services provided by academic libraries. The study goal is to determine the balance of traditional and innovated tasks being accomplished by the libraries. The idea of the survey was conceived in 2019 before the pandemic. In Part One, the authors describe the methods and methodology of their study. The key method is the survey questionnaire. The findings are analyzed and the conclusions are presented: to solve new problems (like establishing and maintaining the systems for monitoring researchers’ publication activity, maintenance of institutional data repository, preparation of reviews and analytical surveys, advocating institutes through social media, users support on copyright and plagiarism, consulting on grant selection and application), academic administration bring the expertise of librarians, or establish new structures; however, the librarians are insufficiently engaged in solving the new tasks of science support. The authors suggest that their findings reflect the activities of academic libraries, however after the pandemic, the situation may change with the world.Роль и задачи научных библиотек меняются, что связано с внешними факторами, один из которых - утрата библиотеками функции единственного источника информации. В статье представлены результаты анкетирования библиотек институтов Новосибирского научного центра (ННЦ) СО РАН по актуальным видам деятельности академических библиотек. Цель исследования: определить соотношение видов задач - традиционных и новых, выполняемых в научных библиотеках ННЦ, задумывалась в ноябре 2019 г., ещё до событий, связанных с пандемией. В первой части статьи описываются методы и методология исследования. Основным методом стал опрос. Проанализировано анкетирование по традиционным и инновационным формам работы с ресурсами в библиотеках ННЦ. Обработка результатов анкетирования позволила прийти к выводам: для решения новых задач (создание и ведение систем для отслеживания публикационной активности учёных, поддержка институционального репозитория данных, подготовка реферативного и аналитического обзоров, продвижение результатов института в социальных сетях, пользователей по вопросам авторского права и плагиата, консультирование по подбору и оформлению грантов и т.д.) администрации НИИ либо привлекают сотрудников библиотек, либо создают новые структуры, выполняющие эти задачи; в решении новых задач, характерных для поддержки научных исследований в исследовательских университетах мира, сотрудники библиотек институтов ННЦ участвуют мало. Полагаем, что полученные выводы отражают состояние деятельности научных библиотек НИИ при решении старых и новых задач. Скорее всего, после окончания карантина ситуация может резко измениться, поскольку изменится мир

О подходах к формированию межведомственных статистических ресурсов, необходимых для мониторинга выполнения социальных программ

This article describes an approach to development of interagency statistical resources with regard to support program for children and families with children - «Children of Russia» - based on the best foreign practices. In other countries these types of statistical resources are created by cooperative efforts of government agencies (that are responsible for implementation of support 'programs for children and families with children) and research centers (universities). Program of development of a specialized unit of interagency information resources dedicated to the problems of children and families with children is put together to investigate the wellbeing of target groups, to work out a program for supporting children and families with children, to monitor program’s performance (stages and results). This resource is to be multifunctional; it may serve research and education interests of universities and raise public awareness and knowledge about this vital and socially significant sphere. Official statistics forms the basis for data array; functionality is amplified by analytical services with regard to needs of all interested parties (agencies, researchers and general public). The paper discusses an approach to creating an interagency resource with information on children and families with children in Russia. Despite the fact that several national ministries in line with their activity areas practice and keep statistical records on these topics, the data resources are not integrated for system analysis of problems of children and families with children. Therefore, in order to standardize the terminology and concepts in this field of statistical observation the authors propose developing a unified subject classification and integrating data in the resources’ multifunctional information framework. Such resource may provide means for integrated assessment of the general subject area and specific target groups. According to the authors, this resource may serve as a foundation for elaborating documents for strategic planning of effective family, maternity and childhood support policies at a new level of quality. The article proposes an approach to the development of statistical information resource based on Rosstat data with advanced interface and a set of analytical services, which include access to the methodology of statistical monitoring and access to thematic publications on the problems of children and families with children in regions of the country.Авторы с учетом практики развитых стран обосновывают подходы к формированию межведомственных статистических ресурсов применительно к программе помощи детям и семьям с детьми «Дети России». Отмечается, что такого рода статистические ресурсы в зарубежных странах создаются совместными усилиями государственных структур, в сферу ответственности которых входит реализация программ помощи семьям с детьми, и исследовательских центров (университетов). Программа разработки специализированного блока межведомственных информационных ресурсов, посвященных проблемам детей и семей с детьми, составляется исходя из задач исследования положения целевых групп, разработки и мониторинга этапов и результатов программ поддержки детей и семей с детьми, для научных проектов и просвещения общества в этой важной и социально значимой сфере. Основу информационного массива ресурсов составляет официальная статистика; функциональность дополнена аналитическими сервисами с учетом потребностей всех заинтересованных ведомств, исследователей и граждан страны. В статье обсуждается подход к созданию межведомственного ресурса, содержащего информацию о детях и семьях России. Несмотря на то, что ряд отечественных министерств по направлениям своей деятельности ведут статистический учет, связанный с указанной проблематикой, данные разных ведомств не интегрированы для системного анализа проблем детей и семей с детьми. Поэтому на основе унификации терминологии и понятий рассматриваемой области статистического наблюдения предлагается разработать единый тематический классификатор и интегрировать данные в рамках многофункционального информационного ресурса, на основе которого возможна комплексная характеристика как предметной области в целом, так и ее отдельных целевых групп. По мнению авторов, на базе такого ресурса возможна разработка на новом качественном уровне документов стратегического планирования для целей эффективной политики поддержки семьи, материнства и детства. Предложен подход к разработке информационного статистического ресурса на базе данных Росстата с развитым интерфейсом и комплексом аналитических сервисов, включая доступ к методологии статистического наблюдения и доступ к тематическим публикациям по проблемам детей и семей с детьми в регионах страны

Growth hormone deficiency in childhood brain tumors and acute lymphoblastic leukemia survivors

Thanks to modern treatment protocols, childhood cancer survivors (CCS) are a very fast-growing population nowadays. Cancer therapy inevitably leads to different late adverse effects, where endocrine disorders are highly prevalent, including growth hormone deficiency (GHD) which is the most common endocrine outcome after cancer treatment in childhood and contributes to impaired growth. Short stature is a big issue, which leads to problems in psychological and social adaptation of patients and reduces their quality of life. Impact of GH treatment on various physiological processes and global outcome of CCS is of great interest. Several studies have demonstrated an influence of GH and IGF-1 on the development/tumour growth, cell proliferation. In this regard, the issue of increasing the risk of cancer recurrence and/or the development of secondary neoplasms in CCS, causes a lot of controversy and is the subject of continuous evaluation. In this review, we went through the available data on the prevalence and pathogenesis of GHD following chemo- and radiotherapy, in particular after treatment of brain tumors and acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in childhood. In addition, here we discuss the existing problems in the diagnosis of GHD, the safety of GH replacement therapy, as well as the treatment algorithm of the GHD in adults
