Today, Ukraine has retained a fairly strong scientific potential. However, the level of patent and innovation activity in Ukraine is low, because the state provides for a small percentage of the gross domestic product (GDP) that goes to finance research. In recent years, the number of research works and staff of research institutes has been shrinking rapidly due to chronic underfunding and outdated experimental research equipment. For the same reason, the citation index of works of Ukrainian scientists is low. The weak material base of the Ukrainian research institutes stipulates that the ratio of experimental to theoretical scientific and technical developments has been decreasing in recent years. Most patents are registered by Ukrainian scientists in Ukraine - in Ukrpatent. The majority of international patents are granted to Ukrainians in the USA, Germany and Switzerland. Against the background of the integration of Ukrainian scientists into the world community, there is a significant increase in the number of joint scientific publications of Ukrainian scientists with foreign colleagues. In recent years, the world has seen a rapid increase in patents on nanotechnology in the most technologically advanced countries in the world. The patent and innovation activity in Ukraine is expected to grow rapidly in the near future. The main goal is to ensure rapid and qualitative transformation of creative ideas into innovative products and services that increase the level of innovation of the national economy.

The article analyzes the current situation with the access of farms to credit resources in the country and the world, a new approach to facilitating farmers ' access to credit resources is proposed. Surveys within the framework of the farm data monitoring system on the information base of the Center for Agrarian Research under the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Azerbaijan revealed the current state of access of agricul-tural producers to financial and credit resources. The new approach addresses issues related to the imple-mentation of intermediary and guarantee functions by research institutes of the agricultural sector. The posi-tive influence of the latter on creditworthiness is shown due to the mediation between the bank and the farmer.

<p>Looking at practices in different locations is beneficial since it helps challenge assumptions that we may take for granted. Groupwork, as a method of social work, is specifically interesting to explore in the light of different contexts since, like social work, it may or may not translate well across cultures. This paper draws from data collected in the context of a research project that aimed to describe the current state of social work with groups in Quebec and to explore trends within social work with groups elsewhere in the world. Specifically, it focuses on the exploration of practices in Quebec and discusses them in relationship to those found in the USA, as a counterpoint. Our findings highlight some differences and similarities between Quebec and the USA with regard to groupwork, which leads us to discuss a range of factors that may impact on groupwork in the different contexts. Of these, the differences of organisational context and organisation of services have emerged as particularly noteworthy, which echoes findings in general social work literature with regard to the importance of local contexts on the definition of practice itself.</p>

Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is a global challenge of modern oncology representing the most unfavourable scenario in diverse-locality tumourisation. Despite certain attention by the oncological community, the management of PC patients is currently palliative, which weakly promotes research into the basic principles of this morbidity. This literature review attempts to comprehensively cover the PC problematic from a global perspective and presents a key evidence on the world schools of thought in this area. Briefly taking, peritoneal carcinomatosis is viewed today as a local process in the conventional implantation theory, which imposes a locoregional character on all current or emerging therapies, such as cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Their inadequate efficacy is largely due to pronounced gaps in our understanding of PC logistics and signalling. PSOGI is a key organisation for centralising the specialty effort in peritoneal carcinomatosis. Despite its global geography and approach to PC discussion, a multitude of scientific questions remain unanswered impeding the establishment of novel effective therapies. The seven countries that nurtured distinguished schools of thought in PC studies are the USA, UK, Japan, China, Italy, France and Germany. Taking peritoneal carcinomatosis in a global perspective, an insufficient attention to its problematic in Russia should be addressed. The founding and fostering of national PC institutions will benefit cancer patients and progress in oncological science.

Annotation. Alcohol addiction is one of the three main health problems in the world, which directly or indirectly increases the mortality rate, wherein it poses the greatest threat to the developed countries of Europe and America. Identification of promising directions for resolving the issue of alcohol withdrawal syndrome with delirium is one of the levers to reduce the consequences of its harmful use. It was made an analysis of the electronic database of scientific publications Pubmed and the latest WHO data, the main approaches to the pathogenesis and intensive care of alcoholic delirium in Ukraine and abroad were highlighted and displayed, clinical and laboratory diagnostic aspects were distinguished. There is a certain vision of the pathogenesis of alcohol withdrawal syndrome as an imbalance in the GABA and glutamate-ergic systems in brain neurons. Diagnostic criteria have been developed and introduced into clinical practice to determine the severity of withdrawal status, as well as sedation-agitation scales, it is not completely determined the influence of electrolyte disturbances, namely magnesium deficiency on the severity of the condition, the effectiveness of sedation and mortality. The optimal way to increase the effectiveness of the treatment of alcoholic delirium, which would ensure an adequate level of sedation, has not yet been found all over the world, at the same time, without increasing the risk of complications in the form of an overdose of tranquilizers and hypnotics, both in case of their isolated and combined use. The possibility of using chelate compounds containing GABA in themselves, as well as organic magnesium salts, namely gluconic acid salts, is promising.

Strategic Management (SM) finds wide adoption across the industry, government, military academia and other organizations with a view to ensuring survival and longterm growth. Universities across the world, especially in the USA, UK, Australia, Canada and China, have successfully implemented SM to build strong international brands and consistently maintain top global rankings. Indian Higher Education (IHE) sector, however, has not been proactive in adopting SM to address the numerous challenges that confront it. In this paper, the authors have explored the current state of SM adoption in IHE, highlighting the challenges in its implementation and suggest some ideas to help institutionalize SM for effecting long-term positive change in the sector.

Entrepreneurs are responsible for bringing innovative products and services to market. However, in order to bring new value to consumers, most entrepreneurs must secure funding. An integral component in the process of resource acquisition is the entrepreneur’s story. Very little research has dealt with the storytelling structure that a good pitch should use. Stories are a fundamental part of the way human beings understand themselves and the world around them. This paper synthesizes the current state of entrepreneurial storytelling and builds a parsimonious framework for strategic entrepreneurial storytelling (SES) through qualitative analysis of actual pitches. Our framework will help entrepreneurs build intentional and compelling stories for their investment pitch through the concepts of SES context, content, and execution.

The modern world is going through the next stage of its transformation. The old world centers of power – the USA and Canada, the EU, and Japan – are gradually giving away their global economic positions to competitors, especially young rapidly growing economies. In conditions of an extremely dangerous direct confrontation between the “old” and “new” players, the geostrategic and military-political importance of the “periphery” zones of rivalry – the Middle East and Africa has increased. Currently, Africa is developing faster than all other regions of the world and has accumulated quite a lot of potential in recent years. The scientific understanding of these processes and the development of specific recommendations constitute the main activity of the Institute for African Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, which marks its 60th anniversary in 2019. Through those years the Institute has accumulated an outstanding scientific potential, which allowed this think-tank to occupy an important place among the African studies research centers of the world.

Recently, the popularization of obligatory preventive use of multivitamin preparations has been observed, and, as a result of this, they have become an integral part of the modern lifestyle. This is precisely what determines the relevance and necessity of researching the market of vitamin and mineral complexes in Ukraine. A feature of the current state of the vitamin market is their positioning in the form of both drugs and dietary supplements (DS). In view of this, research of the assortment dynamics of product range, the features of the competitive environment for this group of drugs are important. Therefore, the purpose of our work was to analyze the dynamics of the range of vitamin drugs and compare them with the range of vitamin DS. The material of the study was an assortment of vitamin drugs and DS according to the manuals «Compendium. Medicines» of different years of publication in period from1999 to 2019 and Compendium.online site as of February 2019. Such research methods of market conditions analysis for vitamin products as generalization, systematization, comparative analysis were used. The analysis of the dynamics of the range of vitamin medicines in Ukraine during 1999-2019 was conducted. It was determined that the maximum amount of vitamin products was presented in the pharmaceutical market of Ukraine in 2007 (267 items by trade names), the minimum – in 2016 (119 preparations). At the beginning of 2019 the number of vitamin medicines is 170. 21 Ukrainian producers offered 84 vitamin drugs, which is almost half of the registered positions (49,4%). Another 86 drugs (51,6% of the analyzed population) are represented by 30 manufacturers from 18 countries of the world. Among the foreign producers, the largest number of positions is offered by manufacturers from the USA (22), Germany (15), Israel (9), and Slovenia (8). On the Compendium.online information resource in the section «Dietary Supplements», there were 325 presented items of vitamin supplements from 126 manufacturers, which is almost twice the number of registered vitamin medicines (170). All 16 vitamin drug manufacturers also have diet supplements in their portfolio. For 5 producers, the amount of supplements exceeds the supply of drugs in the investigated segment: Queisser Pharma, Bayer, Beringer Ingelheim, Dr. Theiss Naturwaren (all – Germany), Polfarma (Poland) and Valeant (Canada).

In the article, the problem of overcoming poverty acquires further theoretical and methodological substantiation. The current state of overcoming poverty in the world and in Ukraine (on the example of non-standard forms of employment (NFP) "volunteering" and "voluntourism") in the global socio-economic and political aspects in the context of permanent changes and transformations of the world are considered. It is shown: international documents fix the existence of the problem of poverty and determine the main directions of the XXI century for overcoming it (on the example of the UN Millennium Declaration); the coronavirus pandemic has led to an increase in poverty; the main problem of overcoming poverty in Ukraine is the lack of a comprehensive system in the country that can effectively address poverty problems (government bodies are not involved in poverty prevention policies, but only fight with its consequences); in Ukraine, the most pressing problem is poverty among the working-age population and the poverty of families with children; poverty in Ukraine is characterized by a number of national characteristics (the UN notes that absolute poverty in Ukraine has been overcome. But relative poverty is 78%); solving the problem of overcoming poverty in Ukraine requires the development of a system of complex scientifically based and effective measures that should take into account the profile, specifics and features of the formation and spread of poverty, the causes of its occurrence and ways of overcoming it, as well as the most effective state policy for overcoming poverty and economic mechanisms for its implementation; world experience considers the NFP “volunteering” and “voluntourism” as forms of employment that can overcome the effect of abstraction of people from social problems and poverty, form a model of collective participation in the elimination of the latter, and restore human values; volunteering and voluntouring are supported by government agencies of the USA, Canada, Australia, England, Italy, Japan and other developed countries, including through the adoption of legislative acts that stimulate their development, the creation of a system of state volunteer centers and special programs of volunteering and voluntourism; Ukrainians attach great importance to volunteering and voluntourism in the development of social processes.
