The article presents the results of the study on unfavourable locations for animals’ anthrax registered in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) conducted from 2010 to 2018. The research materials were archival documents of the veterinary service of the Yakutsk region, including written reports from the fi rst veterinarians to the Governor of the region about outbreaks of anthrax among domestic animals and people, statistics on the incidence and mortality rate of anthrax in domestic animals from 1811 to 1993, and data from the census of the population and animals. This work was carried out to compile the cadastre of stationary unfavourable locations for anthrax. During the study period, 739 outbreaks of anthrax among domestic and wild animals in 29 administrative districts and 244 settlements were recorded on the territory of the Republic. Among them, there were 455 unfavourable locations that were not previously included in the Russian Cadastre. The information presented in the cadastre of unfavourable locations for animals’ anthrax includes the name of the settlement and farm (given the administrative and territorial changes of districts, settlements and farm names), the year of registration, the number of unfavourable locations and the animal species. As a basis for compiling this cadastral map, geographical maps of the administrative and territorial divisions of the districts were used. These maps show unfavourable locations with signs and use cartographic, statistical and other methods applied in epizootology and epidemiology. The study of stationary unfavourable locations on the territory of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) has gained particular importance in recent decades. This was facilitated by the intensive development of the country’s economy, accompanied by large-scale development of deposits of diamond, gold, oil, gas, and the construction of railways and Lena and Kolyma federal roads. The construction works take place in the areas including the ones adjacent to stationary unfavourable locations, which therefore requires an assessment of their epidemiological risk. The cadastre of unfavourable locations for animals’ anthrax will enable specialists of Rospotrebnadzor, veterinary and design institutions, employees of the Ministry of Emergencies, municipalities of districts and settlements to develop and implement a set of preventive measures in places unfavourable for anthrax.

The paper presents the results of the study and analysis of the epizootic process of anthrax among domestic animals in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) from 1853 to 2020. The following indicators of the epizootic process were used in the analysis: incidence rate, mortality and lethality. The object of the study comprised written reports of veterinarians of Yakutsk region to the governor about outbreaks of anthrax among domestic animals and people, quarterly and annual reporting data on the incidence rate and mortality of domestic animals, as well as statistical data on the number of farm animals in the specified period. The highest intensive manifestation of the epizootic process in cattle and horses during the study period was noted in the period until the 40s of the XX century. From the mid-forties, incidence and mortality rates were dynamically declining. The epizootic process of reindeer was characterized by an increase until the end of the 40s (1949), whereas from the 50s to the end of the 70s there was a decrease in the incidence and mortality rates. From 1980 to 1986, another increase in the epizootic process was recorded in the reindeer husbandry, followed by a decrease. Lethality of cattle ranging from 5 to 70% occurred in the period of 1946-1976, horses – in 1945-1993, deer – in 1949-1993. In other adverse years, starting from the official registration of anthrax to the mid-40s (1944-1946), it reached 100%. Overall, intensive manifestation of the epizootic process of anthrax dynamically decreased in the second half of the study period, with the exception of reindeer, in which it increased in 1980–1986 with a subsequent decrease.

Currently a number of studies on Kalmyk toponymy have been carried out, materials for which were geographical maps, historical and fictional literature, information from informants. However, until now, no attempt has been made to study toponyms based on materials from archival documents of the 17th – 19th centuries (the period of the old-written Kalmyk language functioning). Archival documents, which have the exact date of compilation, provide valuable linguistic material for the study of Kalmyk place names in diachrony, allow studying the process of phonetic adaptation of foreign language toponyms in the Kalmyk language. Old texts contain not only names familiar to the modern generation, but also forgotten, unknown Kalmyk toponyms, which will complement the range of the studied material. The purpose of this article is to identify place names in the letters of Ayuki Khan and their historical and linguistic analysis. This article is based on the letters of Ayuki Khan, one of the most famous rulers of the Kalmyk Khanate, written in the period from 1685 to 1724 to representatives of the Russian administration. The letters are kept in the funds of the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts and the National Archives of the Republic of Kalmykia.

This article, based on archival documents, reveals resettlement processes in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic in 1932–34, which were conditioned by the repressive policy of the Soviet power. The process of resettlement into those regions of the Soviet Ukraine where the population died from hunger most, and which was approved by the authorities, is described in detail. It is noted that about 90,000 people moved from the northern oblasts of the Ukrainian SSR to the southern part of the republic. About 127,000 people arrived in Soviet Ukraine from the Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic (BSSR) and the western oblasts of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR). The material conditions of their residence and the reasons for the return of settlers to their previous places of inhabitance are described. I conclude that the resettlement policy of the authorities during 1932–34 changed the social and national composition of the eastern and southern oblasts of Ukraine.

The paper responds to research problems related to the implementation of large-scale investment projects in waterways in Europe. As part of design and construction works, it is necessary to indicate river ports that play a major role within the European transport network as intermodal nodes. This entails a number of challenges, the cardinal one being the optimal selection of port locations, taking into account the new transport, economic, and geopolitical situation that will be brought about by modernized waterways. The aim of the paper was to present an original methodology for determining port locations for modernized waterways based on non-cost criteria, as an extended multicriteria decision-making method (MCDM) and employing GIS (Geographic Information System)-based tools for spatial analysis. The methodology was designed to be applicable to the varying conditions of a river’s hydroengineering structures (free-flowing river, canalized river, and canals) and adjustable to the requirements posed by intermodal supply chains. The method was applied to study the Odra River Waterway, which allowed the formulation of recommendations regarding the application of the method in the case of different river sections at every stage of the research process.

A year ago the World Stroke Organisation (WSO) highlighted the enormous global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on stroke care. In this review we consider a year later where we are now, what the future holds, and what the long term effects of the pandemic will be on stroke. Stroke occurs in about 1.4% of patients hospitalised with COVID-19 infection, who show an excess of large vessel occlusion and increased mortality. Despite this association, stroke presentations fell dramatically during the pandemic, although emerging data suggests that total stroke mortality may have risen with increased stroke deaths at home and in care homes. Strategies and guidelines have been developed to adapt stroke services worldwide, and protect healthcare workers. Adaptations include increasing use of telemedicine for all aspects of stroke care. The pandemic is exacerbating already marked global inequalities in stroke incidence and mortality. Lastly the pandemic has had a major impact on stroke research and funding, although it has also emphasised the importnace of large scale collaborative research initiatives.

Introduction. Lung cancer represents the most common malignant tumour among men, and appears more and more frequently among women in many countries worldwide. The aims of this descriptive epidemiological study were to evaluate the mortality trends of all malignant tumours and lung cancer in Central Serbia from 1990 to 1999, and to estimate the incidence, mortality and the basic demographic characteristics of lung cancer in Central Serbia in 1999. Material and methods. The source of data concerning cancer cases in 1999 was the Cancer Registry of Central Serbia, while data of the Republic Statistics Institute were used for the analysis of mortality trends for the period 1990-1999. All rates were standardized by the direct method, to the world standard population. Confidence intervals for mortality rates were assessed with 95% level of probability. Linear regression coefficient was determined by Fisher's test. Results. The mortality rates showed rising tendencies for both lung cancer (y=-1876.26+0.96x, p=0.028 for men; y=654.78U).33x, p-0.001 for women) and all malignant tumours (y=-4139.88+2.15x, p=0.163 for men; y=3649.68 + 1.88x, p=0.016 for women), with statistically significant increase being observed for all trends, except all malignant tumours among men. In the year 1999, lung cancer ranked first among men and third among women, with 29.2% and 10.3% of cancer mortality respectively. The age-specific mortality rates were much higher in men in all age groups. Mortality increased with age and the highest rates were found in the age group 70-74 for both sexes. The highest incidence and mortality rates were reported in Belgrade, Moravicki and Sumadijski district. .

Local and foreign scientists are now paying growing attention to various issues of property and the philosophical and ethical, political, economic, institutional, social, psychological, and other aspects of its formation, taking into account the requirements of large-scale transformation, which primarily concern post-industrial areas of social development. In consequence, as modern studies rightfully point out, considering property relations, two general restrictions should be taken into account: this is an attempt to explain the absoluteness of their roles, the presence and content of all aspects of socio-economic relations by property relations; and the denial of the role of property as one of the most important factors determining the direction of social development in the present and future.This situation forces a new look at the economic policy of the state in this area, because any financial and monetary measures taken by the government will be doomed to failure if their implementation will be without interaction with the mechanisms of the private property system. The article defines the entrepreneurial sector of the region, its interaction with the institutions of the market system operating in all sectors and spheres of the region's economy, and also shows the influence of the development of property relations on the institutions of entrepreneurship.

The article analyzes the prospects for US-North Korean and inter-Korean relations, taking into account the completed policy review of the new US administration towards the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), as well as the results of the President of the Republic of Korea Moon Jae-in’s trip to Washington in May 2021 and his talks with US President Joe Biden. It is concluded that the “new" course proposed by the United States in relation to the DPRK will not lead to a solution to the nuclear problem of the Korean Peninsula and will interfere with the normalization of inter-Korean relations. During his visit to the US President Moon failed to obtain the US consent on ROK more “independent policy” toward North Korea. In spite of lavish investments into US economy and other concessions, Seoul was forced to promise to coordinate his approaches to the DPRK with US and Japan and support US position on Taiwan straits and South China Sea. The author argues that in the current conditions, the introduction of a regime of arms limitation and arms control in Korea should be a necessary stage on the way to complete denuclearization of the peninsula. The transition to a such method of the settlement of the nuclear problem could lead to the resumption of the negotiation process, mutual concessions, including reductions in the level of military-political confrontation, partial or large-scale lifting of economic sanctions in exchange for North Korea's restrictions of its nuclear weapon and missile systems.
