The author of the article states that in spite of the fact that manipulation has been broadly studied in various areas of science, such as psychology, sociology, politology, linguistics, etc., countermanipulation (the response action to manipulation) has been analysed mainly by psychologists. This phenomenon has not been studied in linguistics yet. The author of the article gives a linguotypological description of the verbal countermanipulation tactics as exemplified in political video blogs reviewing the events with the participation of A. Navalny. A special two-stage algorithm which included a communicative pragmatic analysis was used for revealing countermanipulative intention in political video blogs. The first stage included attentive viewing of the videos and their analysis to determine manipulation upon certain criteria (a hidden aim, use of non-cooperative strategies and tactics and special verbal manipulative techniques). The second stage consisted of analysing the response utterances to define countermanipulative intention (neutralising manipulation), identification of countermanipulative tactics, their definition and classification. As a result of the conducted research, the author of the article has distinguished two groups of countermanipulative tactics: overt opposition tactics and covert opposition tactics. The group of overt opposition tactics includes the tactic of manipulative intention revealing, the tactic of making a question about manipulator’s intentions, the tactic of manipulation technique revealing, the tactic of counterargumentation and the tactic of refusing to change one’s behaviour towards manipulator’s intentions. The covert opposition tactics are the tactic of clarification questions and the tactic of repeating the manipulator’s words. The author points out the importance of further study of verbal countermanipulation from the perspective of solving the problems of the personal and social information security.
We conducted a retrospective analysis of 130 dispensary records of women who were on a dispensary examination in the State Medical Institution of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) "Polyclinic No. 1" in Yakutsk in order to study the frequency of arterial hypertension (AH) and its complications in various age groups. The middle age was 49.95±1.18 years. All women underwent the following laboratory and instrumental methods of examination: general blood analysis, general urine analysis, biochemical blood analysis (total cholesterol, glucose, creatinine, urea), tonometry, and electrocardiography. AH was detected in 32 examined patients, which made 24.6 % of the total number of the examined. There was found a moderate positive correlation of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and total cholesterol with age. In the studied group with hypertension, the most common complications were ischemic heart disease -28.1 %, and stroke -1 %. Thus, we revealed the frequency of hypertension according to the results of clinical examination among women of various ages living in the city of Yakutsk: 24.6 %, which is slightly lower than the national average (30.6 %). The earliest manifestations of target organ damage in hypertension are changes in the heart: hypertrophy of the left ventricle, enlargement of the left atrium, various rhythm and conduction disorders. Unlike other authors, we did not find any pronounced shifts and interrelations of hemodynamic and metabolic indicators during medical examination. Consequently, clinical examination of the organized and unorganized population is a necessary measure for the detection of hypertension and cardiovascular complications.
