The State and Prospects of Russia's Agri-Food Export to the Countries of the Eurasian Economic Union.

The paper examines the features and main areas of the development of Russian exports of agri-food products to the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union. The complementarity of the agri-food trade of Russia with its partners in the EAEU is assessed. Products with comparative advantages are identified. Potential export values are indicated, and the prospects for Russian export supplies to the common agri-food market of the EAEU are analyzed.

[An essential negative effect of a family history of substance use on readiness for drug dependence rehabilitation treatment in inpatients with addictions]. / Negativnoe vliianie semeinoi otiagoshchennosti na gotovnost' statsionarnykh patsientov s narkoticheskoi zavisimost'iu k prokhozhdeniiu reabilitatsionnoi programmy.

AIM: To reveal objective factors predicting the readiness of inpatient drug treatment patients to undergo a rehabilitation program. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In a retrospective comparative study, drug-dependent individuals (n=199, 16.6% females, 83.4% men, 91.5% opioid-dependent) were studied. After conducting motivational activities based on cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy, the premorbid, anamnestic, clinical, socio-demographic characteristics of patients were studied as possible predictors of readiness for rehabilitation using binary logistic regression. RESULTS: Family history of substance use reduced the probability of readiness for rehabilitation by >4,5 times (p<0.0001, Exp (B) = 4.577, CI 95% [2.0556, 10.190]). The influence of other factors was weaker and manifested itself only with their combinations (female sex + use of several psychoactive drugs; intravenous drug injection + polydrug addiction; non-remission course of disease + family history of substance use) which increased the likelihood of readiness for rehabilitation. There was no effect of social/demographic variables. CONCLUSION: Family history of substance use significantly reduces the likelihood of readiness for rehabilitation. The clinical severity of the disease, on the other hand, increases the chances of readiness. Patients with a family history of substance use represent a specific group of patients requiring maximum efforts in the process of motivation for rehabilitation.

[The forecast of illicit drug use in adolescents with addictive behavior: personality traits and the level of genetic risk of substance dependence.] / Prognoz upotrebleniya narkotikov podrostkami s addiktivnym povedeniem: cherty kharaktera i uroven' geneticheskogo riska razvitiya khimicheskoi zavisimosti.

AIM: To clarify the psychological mechanism underlying the genetic risk of substance addiction at the first stage of drug use by adolescents. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Genetic risk was evaluated by genotyping of 5 polymorphisms of the dopaminergic system genes (dopamine receptor D2 and D4 genes and tyrosine hydroxylase gene). Psychological testing was performed using the Russian version of Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI-125). Seventy-five adolescents, aged 14-17 years, (girls 32%), who misused alcohol, including 22 adolescents using drugs, were examined. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The level of genetic risk was directly correlated with the probability of drug use by boys, for girls the correlation was not confirmed. The increase of the level of genetic risk for boys was correlated with the increase on the scale «Self-directedness¼ of TCI-125 that may reflect a probable tendency to replacement of negative information, feeling of illusory wellbeing. The findings clarify the direction of measures for the prevention of drug use.
