Authors: Subaşı-Zarbaliyev Benazir , Kutlu Gozde , Törnük Fatih
Published: May 2023

Background and Purpose: Propolis has high potential beneficial bioactive properties such as anti-oxidative, anti­microbial, and anti-tumour activities. However, the bitter taste and the insolubility nature of propolis in water lead to some limitations in their usage in functional food applications. Experimental Approach: Herein, we evaluated the effects of nanoencapsulation of propolis at the different concentration levels (0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2 %) into the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanoparticles using the electrospraying method, on the structural, physical, antioxidant, antimicrobial and thermal properties. Key Results: The results revealed that the fabricated nanocapsules (PVA-NPs) obtained under optimal conditions had uniform size distribution and unstable particles with small particle size between 104-258 nm, a polydispersity index <0.317, and a zeta potential between -5 and +5 mV. The maximum encapsulation efficiency of PVA-NPs was about 25.32 % for 1 % of the initial propolis loading level. DSC thermal experiments showed an increase in the thermal stability of the propolis loaded PVA nanoparticles as compared to the neat PVA nanoparticles. The percent inhibition of DPPH radical scavenging activity of the nanocapsules was between 80 and 89 %. SEM analysis revealed that PVA-NPs had a spherical shape with a rough surface and were composed of long and thin fibres at nanometric diameters. FT-IR analysis showed that no indications of any chemical reactions were found between the constituents of the core and wall material due to their physical mixing. Antibacterial efficacy was evaluated by the Broth dilution method and PVA-NPs exhibited good inhibitory activity against S. aureus at low concentration ratios, whereas it had no inhibitory activity against E. coli O157:H7. Conclusion: PVA-NPs fabricated using the electrospraying technique can be used for the development of a new promising natural and bioactive agent in the food and pharmaceutical industry.

Published: May 2023

Due to the optimal composition of microelements, treatment with mineral waters "Vardzia" and "Zanavi" in patients suffering from gastroduodenitis led to positive dynamics of the clinical symptoms of the disease. The anti-inflammatory, analgesic and anti-toxic effect of mineral waters was revealed, the structure of the mucous membrane of the stomach and duodenum was significantly improved, which led to the normalization of the acid-producing function of the stomach and the growth of the surface epithelium of the gastric mucosa. The study of the relative effectiveness of treatment with mineral water showed us the priority value of mineral water "Vardzia" in chronic gastroduodenitis, which occurs due to a decrease in the acid-producing function of the stomach. And in the case of increased acid generating function, mineral water "Zanavi" proved to be effective. High efficiency, ecological purity allows these waters to be used both for treatment and prevention.

Published: May 2023

The practice of sports shows that in the sports of high athletic achievements, the result of the wrong choice of sports has a serious impact on the socialization process of the athlete. The wrongly chosen sports cause the indifferent attitude of young athletes to sports, which in turn results in a large number of children and long-term abandonment, which leads to their Stopping the growth of individual sports achievements. The relevance of the work is determined by the insufficient development of the question of the influence of personal characteristics on the choice of a sport, there are no theoretically justified methods for determining the character and personal characteristics of adolescents involved in sports, and their inclination to a particular sport. Also, the importance of typological characteristics in the realization and socialization of athletes is less studied.

Background: Dislocation is the terrible complication of the temporal lobe tumors. The tumors of the temporal lobe are characterized by high rate of dislocation. Topographilly nearest of medio-basal part of temporal lobe to Pachion hole ensuring the formation of dislocation syndrome and preponderate of local symptoms over common cerebral symptoms. Aim: The aim of our research is to study a structural correlation and morphological features of dislocation process during temporal lobe tumors for definition optimal surgical treatment. Methods: We studied 85 dislocation cases of sectional material during temporal lobe tumors (53 males and 32 famales). All material of tumors were based on the microscope, macroscope and electro-microscope examination of operative and sectional material and were verified by many frontal and sagittal incisions of the brain. Results: In medio-basal localization of tumors we didn’t meet any benign tumors. In 6 (7%) of cases morphological compensation was so high, that we couldn’t find any connection between tumor and dislocation. Some cases gyrus hippocampus and cingula were not pinched. During the dislocation process caused by temporal lobe tumors herniating of tonsila in the foramen Magna happens late, at the end, when in the cerebellum hemisphere may not happened rude morpho-logical changes. The factor of secondary ischemia of the brain may be considered. The herniation in the foramen Magna caused the ruin of vital functions in the stem, which is the reason of quick death. Conclusions: Dislocation mostly occurred in the group of malign glioms of high grade, mainly lo-calized in the medio-basal part of the temporal lobe. The realization of dislocation besides tumors pathobiological action is the factor of brain secondary ischemia, which is caused by the pressure of tumors on the main trunk and branches of the middle cerebral artery. From our point of view the reason of quick death is the herniation in the hole of Bisha.

Authors: Grelewicz Olga , Kulbacka Gabriela , Mikuła Tomasz , Wiercińska-Drapało Alicja
Published: May 2023

Diagnosis of primary HIV infection may be disrupted by many factors, one of which are drugs such as exogenous steroids. We report a rare case of a 37-year-old male patient, undergoing testosterone treatment in the course of Klinefelter syndrome. He presented with the general symptoms of fever, weakness and diarrhea lasting for 2 weeks. He also had incorrect results of laboratory studies. The fourth generation ELISA HIV test indicated negative outcomes. The HIV real time polymerase chain reaction test was performed and showed very high plasma viral load, over 107 copies/ml. We discuss the connection between androgen replacement therapy used in Klinefelter syndrome and the diagnosis of PHI. This case report illustrates the importance of obtaining a detailed medical history, especially of chronic diseases and medications, and applying appropriate diagnostic tests.

Published: May 2023

TiO2 is one of the photocatalyst materials that is widely used and proven for environmental treatment. To increase the activity of TiO2, TiO2 has been modified into a nanotube shape with nickel metal doping. The TiO2 nanotubes with Ni doping have been synthesized with one step hydrothermal process. In this research, it shows that nickel doped with TiO2 led to a reduction of crystal size and band gap energy. The smaller crystalline size and lower band gap energy enhanced its photocatalytic activity. The best results for photocatalytic activity were TiO2/Ni with a crystal size of 7.30 nm and a band gap energy value of 3.12 eV. The photocatalytic activity of TiO2/Ni was tested by degrading methylene blue under mercury lamp radiation, with the best result of 92.73 % degradation of methylene blue, within 240 minutes of photocatalytic activity.

Published: May 2023

Context: The accuracy of narrow-band imaging (NBI) is a technology imaging for the assessment of lung cancer. Objectives: We aimed at summarizing the diagnostic profile of NBI for the early diagnosis of airway cancer lesions. Methods: We used PubMed, Scopus, and EMBASE databases to search for eligible studies published up to October 2022. Eligible studies have investigated the diagnostic profile of bronchoscopy NBI for the early diagnosis of lung cancer. The index test was NBI bronchoscopy, and the reference test was the histopathological results of lung cancer based on the World Health Organization (WHO) classification. In eligible studies, the detected lesions were confirmed by histopathology. We extracted true positive (TP), true negative (TN), false positive (FP), and false negative (FN) from the eligible studies to calculate the diagnostic profile of NBI. the quality assessment of diagnostic accuracy studies-2 (QUADAS-2) assessment was used as a tool to assess the risk of bias. A random-effects model was used to pool the summary receiver operating characteristic curve, specificity, and sensitivity. Results: Five studies were included, involving 1267 subjects with 1850 biopsy specimens. The overall pooled sensitivity and specificity for NBI bronchoscopy for the early detection of airway cancer lesions were 98% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 89% - 100%) and 77% (95% CI: 62% - 88%), respectively. All I2 values for sensitivity and specificity were 35.93% and 85%, respectively, with a P-value of 0.001. The positive LR was 4.35 (95% CI: 2.51 - 7.54, P < 0.001), and the negative LR was 0.03 (95% CI: 0.01 - 0.14, P = 0.006). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.95 (95% CI: 0.92 - 0.96). Conclusions: Narrow-band imaging bronchoscopy can be used as a diagnostic modality for the early diagnosis of airway cancer lesions with good diagnostic accuracy.

Published: May 2023

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, online teaching methods have gained more interest. Most formats of teaching can be easily transferred into an online format from a technical point of view. However, this is more difficult for practical courses in a laboratory. Together with partners from three European universities, we tackled the issue of providing a practical online course for higher education levels in the framework of the EuroTeQ university. In this work, we present our concept of the course and discuss the course goals and further improvements. We tested the remote lab setting in order to offer the course on a yearly basis in future. The remote lab was focused on energy engineering and was open to students from different engineering disciplines and countries. The course was comprised of three blocks, each consisting of one lecture on the broader context of the topic and one experimental laboratory session. The experimental session was streamed via a video broadcasting service. Students were required to either deliver a written report or to write a newspaper article for each of the three blocks. The learning outcome of the course was that students on the one hand learn about the technologies discussed in the course and on the other hand learn about intercultural communication skills. The goal was to show the diversity of technologies and to show the significance of each technology for a specific country. The online experimental sessions proved to deliver a clear explanation of the topic for the students when provided with sufficient course material adapted to online formats. Contrary, keeping a high level of interaction with students during remote experiments was found most challenging.
Associations between technical AFE teachers’ conceptions of, and approaches to, ICT-enhanced teaching and their conceptions of ICT use in the industry
Authors: Khan Md. Shahadat , Markauskaite Lina
Published: May 2023

This paper builds upon the authors’ previous research on Technical and Further Education (TAFE) teachers’ conceptions of (first paper), and approaches to (second paper), ICT-enhanced teaching in professional education (third paper). This paper aims to examine relationships among the above three aspects, that is: between TAFE teachers’ conceptions of, and approaches to, ICT-enhanced teaching and their associated view about ICT use in the workplace. Phenomenography, a qualitative research approach that emphasizes the importance of people’s experience of a phenomenon, was selected as a research methodology for this study. A cohort of 23 teachers from three TAFE institutions in NSW, Australia, participated in semi-structured, in-depth interviews. This study found that teachers’ conceptions of, and approaches to, ICT-enhanced teaching, and conceptions of ICT in the workplace are linked. More specifically, TAFE teachers who hold a particular conception of ICT-enhanced teaching tended to adopt related approaches to ICT-enhanced teaching that are further linked with conceptions of ICT in the workplace. TAFE teachers who expressed ‘student-centred/activity-oriented and/or industry-oriented’ conceptions of ICT-enhanced teaching were more likely to adopt a ‘studentfocused’ approach to ICT-enhanced teaching. The teachers within this group were more likely to hold an understanding of the role of ICT in the workplace as an effective or essential tool in professional activities. This paper offers new insights that contribute to bridging the gap between ICT in teaching and ICT in workplace practice. These findings could help develop new initiatives to address the existing gap between teaching in TAFE institutes and current practices in the workplace.

Published: May 2023

Learning Arabic will be maximized and perfect by creating a conducive language environment. The language environment provides intensive teaching to students to practice their language skills both orally and in writing. Learning Arabic in the classroom generally prioritizes understanding of linguistic rules including nahwu and sharaf, communicative Arabic practice is rarely applied in class because learning refers to the curriculum and specified material. The language environment is a place for students to practice their language skills, especially speaking skills. Armed with an understanding of the language rules learned in class, students have a great opportunity to apply their Arabic language skills with linguistic activities that are implemented in a speaking environment to the fullest. The type of research used is descriptive qualitative research. The researcher chose this method because the data obtained by the researcher in the field was stated in verbal form and in descriptive analysis without using statistical data. This research was conducted with an inductive point of view, the researcher went into the field first to identify the problem under study. Then the researchers conducted further research and collected data related to the formation of a language environment. The language environment in schools and boarding schools in Palengaan Laok provides opportunities for students to be creative in practicing their language skills as well as various language activities that support the development of their language skills significantly, with a language environment. Arabic learning process becomes more dynamic, effective and varied.

Bu çalışma, modern çağın başlarından günümüze en tartışmalı konular arasında yer alan milliyetçiliği anlamak için kavramsal bir analiz çabası içermektedir. Bu çaba, diğer pek çok çalışmadan farklı olarak milliyetçiliğin anlaşılamaması ya da tanımlanamamasının, birbiri ile sıklıkla eş ya da yakın anlamlarda kullanılan ırk, etni-etnisite ve millet kavramlarına dair yorum farklılıkları ve karmaşadan kaynaklandığı iddiasını taşımaktadır. Bu iddiadan hareket ederek söz konusu kavramlara ait temel tanım tartışmalarına ilişkin bir çerçeve sunmaktadır. Çalışma, konu başlıkları ile ilgili temel literatürü tarayıp, kavramların karşılaştırmalı analizi ve kavramlar arasındaki farklılıkların ortaya konulmasını hedeflemektedir. Elbette literatürde ırk, etni, etnisite ve millet kavramlarına dair üzerinde anlaşılmış ve kabul edilmiş tanımlar olduğunu söylemek gerçekçi değildir. Fakat burada odaklanılan noktalar, millet ve milliyetçilikler çağını doğru anlamlandırmanın yolunun bu kavramlar arasındaki farka odaklanmaktan geçtiği ve milliyetçilerin temel savlarını bu şekilde okumaya çalışmanın işlevsel olduğudur. Bu nedenle metinde temel tanım tartışmalarına yer verilecek, bilhassa aralarındaki farklılıklara odaklanılacak ve kavram karmaşasına mahal vermeyecek bir tasnifle literatüre katkı sağlanacaktır.

The Preventative Knowledge and Experience of Anesthesiology Students with C-arm Fluoroscopy
Authors: Kaplan Betül , Avcı Sezer
Published: May 2023

Objective: Long-term C-arm fluoroscopy exposes medical personnel to substantial radiation doses. Preventing this exposure requires protective equipment and radiation safety. This study examined anesthesia students' using fluoroscopy and preventive knowledge.
Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study included 139 Vocational High School Anesthesia students. The "Healthcare Professional Knowledge of Radiation Protection" scale and a 13-question survey collected data. The scale was designed with a Likert scale and three sub-factors. If the total and sub-dimension item average score of the scale is below 5, it indicates that the level of knowledge of radiation protection among medical personnel is low, and if it is above 5, it indicates that the level of knowledge is high.
Results: More than half of the students (59.8%) heard the radiation from the fluoroscopy device, the vast majority (82.7%) did not receive radiation protection training, 58.3% stayed away from the device while it was operating, and 70.5% stated that it is crucial to stay away from the device while it was operating. It was determined that there was a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) in the "Radiation Physics, Biology, and Radiation Usage Principles" sub-dimension of students who were male, in their second year of education, received radiation protection training, and offered reliable answers to a number of questions measuring their level of radiation knowledge. In addition, the research revealed a positive and highly significant correlation between the scale and its subdimensions.
Conclusion: Although the scale scores of the students who received radiation protection training and had a high level of radiation knowledge were substantially higher than those of the other students, the average score of the students was less than 5. This indicates that students have an inadequate understanding of radiation protection. To prevent the negative biological effects of radiation on the human body, it is necessary to conduct epidemiological research, educate health care professionals and anesthesiology students about the effects and processes of this radiation on human cells, and provide frequent training. Radiation, radiation's biological effects, and radiation protection should be included in health students' curricula.

The utilization and advancement of information and communication technologies (ICTs) have made significant contributions to the improvement and innovation of educational institutions such as schools, colleges, and universities in Balochistan. The Management Information System (MIS) has played a vital role in accelerating managerial functions, leading to effective and result-oriented decision-making in the educational paradigm. This research aimed to explore the issues and challenges related to the Education Management Information System (EMIS) in Balochistan.. The study had two main objectives: firstly, to evaluate the internal dynamics of EMIS in Balochistan, including data collection, installation, storage, and distribution processes, and secondly, to propose a plan of action for the establishment of a comprehensive and functional EMIS in Balochistan that meets the information requirements of decision-makers at different levels. Explanatory sequential mixed methods were employed as the research design, with a population of 31 EMIS cell data entry operators in District Kech, Balochistan. Cluster random sampling was used to select a sample size of 100% (09) data entry operators from the primary EMIS cell of District Kech. Data collection was conducted through a five-point Likert scale questionnaire and an interview guide. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (percentage, frequency, mean score), while qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The study findings revealed that 67% of the respondents agreed that the need for data was determined during meetings with stakeholders, while 100% of the respondents believed that the annual school census was the primary source of data collection. Additionally, all respondents reported collecting data from primary, middle, and secondary schools. Respondents also stated that the district's EMIS cell was the main source of data entry and that data verification was done at the district level. Furthermore, respondents cited wrong entries as the main issue related to data entry, and data dissemination was primarily done at the district level. The study recommends the establishment of well-furnished EMIS cells in each district, the systematic training of data entry operators and concerned officers and staff, and the streamlining of EMIS data to support policy-making and service delivery in institutions.

Authors: Muhwa Gideon
Published: May 2023

This study's purpose was to investigate the influence of the issuance of agency notices on tax compliance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Nairobi County, Kenya. SMEs in Nairobi County made up the research's study population, which was based on the fiscal psychology theory. The study used a targeted sample of 399 managers and owners of SMEs in Nairobi County using a descriptive cross-sectional design in accordance with the positivist research philosophy. The data from the respondents was gathered using a standardized questionnaire with closed-ended questions. Using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), descriptive and regression analysis were performed on the collected data. The study findings determined that issuance of agency notices had a positive and significant effect on tax compliance of SMEs in Nairobi County, Kenya (β= 0.543, t = 13.344, p < 0.05). This study concluded that issuance of agency notices was vital in enhancing tax compliance of SMEs. The study recommends to tax authorities in Kenya to take the option of collecting unpaid taxes directly from the SME’s bank when SMEs fail to comply within the negotiated period. Moreover, tax authorities should increase their tax debt recovery by increasing the usage and issuance of agency notices as soft enforcement measures, while enabling facilitation for enhanced tax compliance. This can be done by revamping the debt management organization (segmentation, centralization, digitalization, public sector partnership, and cooperation) and using call centres with functional customer relationship management (CRM). When equipped with a database with sufficient details about the debtors such as the telephone, mail, and physical addresses, CRM can fast-track the collection of the tax debt outstanding, especially from unreachable taxpayers.

Aging is a natural process in humans that causes changes in the immune response, increasedfrailty and malignancy, and reduced skin elasticity. The ever-increasing global average age significantlyaffects the economic structure of countries by increasing expenditures on health and other social activitiesto ensure individual welfare. Therefore, it is important to determine the mechanisms of action ofenvironmental factors that cause health problems that have negative effects on quality of life at themolecular level in order to determine effective treatment and prevention strategies. Interest in the use ofnatural products in the battle against age-related neurological and dermatological asthma has recentlyincreased. Polyphenols are natural products that show many beneficial biological activities when taken intothe body in appropriate amounts. Regular intake of polyphenols from food and beverages showsantioxidant, anticarcinogenic, antimutagenic, antitumor, antiobesogenic, antimicrobial, neuroprotective,and cardioprotective effects. At the same time, polyphenols have a high potential for the prevention of agerelated dermatological problems, and therefore further studies on dietary polyphenols are important to betterunderstand these protective effects.
