Culinary Culture

China is one of the most dynamic regions in the world in terms of economic growth and development. Such development has inevitably influenced the structure and habits of Chinese society. Whilst the economic condition of the middle class and high-income segment have steadily improved, cultural changes are also under way: ancient Chinese traditions now include major elements from other cultures, most notably the West (Hsing, 2011). The above scenario is the background to this paper. A structured research-administered survey was developed to investigate the changes in the Chinese consumer food culture: 500 urban participants were randomly selected from six reference cities, covering geographically almost the whole country. This study aims not only to analyze the propensity of consumers to include food products from other countries in their ancient Chinese culinary culture, but also represents an initial attempt to perform a market segmentation of Chinese consumers according to their degree of cultural openness toward non-Chinese food, taking into account socio-demographic, cognitive and psychographic variables.

OBJECTIVESurgical approaches to the ventrolateral pons pose a significant challenge. In this report, the authors describe a safe entry zone to the brainstem located just above the trigeminal entry zone which they refer to as the “epitrigeminal entry zone.”METHODSThe approach is presented in the context of an illustrative case of a cavernous malformation and is compared with the other commonly described approaches to the ventrolateral pons. The anatomical nuances were analyzed in detail with the aid of surgical images and video, anatomical dissections, and high-definition fiber tractography (HDFT). In addition, using the HDFT maps obtained in 77 normal subjects (154 sides), the authors performed a detailed anatomical study of the surgically relevant distances between the trigeminal entry zone and the corticospinal tracts.RESULTSThe patient treated with this approach had a complete resection of his cavernous malformation, and improvement of his symptoms. With regard to the HDFT anatomical study, the average direct distance of the corticospinal tracts from the trigeminal entry zone was 12.6 mm (range 8.7–17 mm). The average vertical distance was 3.6 mm (range −2.3 to 8.7 mm). The mean distances did not differ significantly from side to side, or across any of the groups studied (right-handed, left-handed, and ambidextrous).CONCLUSIONSThe epitrigeminal entry zone to the brainstem appears to be safe and effective for treating intrinsic ventrolateral pontine pathological entities. A possible advantage of this approach is increased versatility in the rostrocaudal axis, providing access both above and below the trigeminal nerve. Familiarity with the subtemporal transtentorial approach, and the reliable surgical landmark of the trigeminal entry zone, should make this a straightforward approach.

Abstract. It is determined that ensuring food security and healthy nutrition for the growing population of the planet will remain a challenge for the world community. The global dominants and tendencies of development of agro-production activity within the global market of agro-food products are analyzed. The grouping of leading countries with a highly innovative agro-industrial sector, which is formed taking into account the goals of sustainable development based on the construction of a clustering model using the K-Means algorithm is done. Their experience of formation of the state policy directed for support of innovative transformations of agrarian and industrial complex is generalized and recommendations on implementation of their best achievements in the domestic agricultural sector are offered. The aim of the work is a comprehensive assessment of innovative transformations taking place in the agricultural sector in the context of the challenges of global sustainable development. The task of the research is to determine the most successful group of countries in terms of implementation of intensification of production activities, the effectiveness of innovation policy and the ability to meet the demand for food, taking into account the requirements of sustainable development; providing recommendations for the modernization of agricultural production of domestic producers. The following methods of scientific research were used to achieve the goal and solve the problems of the article: system analysis, forecasting, generalization, modeling, namely clustering by the K-Means algorithm, etc. The scientific novelty of the obtained results is to provide comprehensive recommendations for the formation of domestic public policy aimed at supporting innovative transformations in the agroindustrial sector, based on key factors and determinants of its development and taking into account the best practices of leading countries in this field.Keywords: agricultural production, innovations, sustainable development, state support.JEL Classification O13, O39, Q01, Q17, F63Formulas: 0; fig.: 2; tabl.: 2; bibl.: 20.
