What are coastal cities doing about the problem of marine litter? A case study in southern Brazil
Authors: De Ramos Bruna , Kitzmann Dione Silveira
Published: October 2022

Beach management is a key issue in combating marine litter, especially in tourist areas. It is necessary to promote government initiatives that refine local autonomy to improve the quality of beaches. Partnerships between interested institutions at the local level are stimulated to fight against environmental, economic, and social problems.  Marine litter, as a more holistic problem, is growing in the international and national sphere, support programs are being developed, with possible advantages at the local level. Cassino Beach in Rio Grande, Brazil, was used as a case study to evaluate the current approaches to managing marine litter, with a focus on tourism-generated litter, analyzing the weaknesses and strengths of municipal management. The case presented as weaknesses a lack of awareness and policy, administrative deficiencies, few resources, and few spaces that promote public participation. Knowledge and information, institutional competencies, partnership, and strategies appeared as strong points. It was possible to observe that the municipality of Rio Grande is assimilating problems, planning actions and few projects are being implemented.
“If You Don’t Know Who They Are, You Don’t Know How to Support Them”: A Qualitative Study Exploring How Educators Perceive and Support Canadian Military-Connected Students
Authors: Hill Shannon , Lee Elizabeth A. , Cramm Heidi
Published: October 2022

To date, American research has provided the foundation for what is known about the educational experiences of students living in military families. Given contextual differences that exist between the United States and Canada, it is unclear how representative the American findings are of the Canadian experience. Using semi-structured interviews, this phenomenological study collected data from six educators to better understand how the needs of military-connected students are addressed within Canadian secondary schools. Participants generally had a good understanding of the military lifestyle and its associated challenges for students. However, many participants were unaware of any formal mechanisms used to identify military-connected students, any professional development opportunities for educators, or any collaborations that exist between schools and the military to support such students. Given the current lack of Canadian research, this study will help contribute to the building of knowledge and capacity in the Canadian context.
Assessing Learning Skills and Work Habits: What Do Report Card Data Tell Us?
Authors: Merchant Stefan Denis , Klinger Don , Kirby John
Published: October 2022

Many school systems ask teachers to assess and report upon aspects of student performance beyond academic achievement. In Ontario, K–12 teachers assess a common set of six Learning Skills and Work Habits. How well teachers are able to undertake these assessments is not well studied. This study examines Grade 9 and 12 report card data from two districts in Ontario, Canada to determine to what extent different learning skills are assessed independently of each other, and to what extent they are associated with teacher-awarded academic achievement and achievement on a standardized Grade 9 mathematics examination delivered by Ontario’s Educational Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO). Results indicate that the set of six Learning Skills and Work Habits are assessed as a unitary construct. Grades on these skills have higher correlations with teacher-awarded grades than with standardized test scores. Finally, gender differences in both academic achievement and achievement on the set of skills are investigated.
Développement du sentiment d’efficacité personnelle perçu par des enseignantes œuvrant auprès d’élèves ayant un trouble du spectre de l’autisme au secondaire et appropriation de nouvelles pratiques évaluatives
Authors: Lamarche Marie-Aimée , Durand Micheline-Joanne
Published: October 2022

Évaluer des élèves ayant un trouble du spectre de l’autisme (TSA) représente un défi pour les enseignants, ce qui peut affecter leur sentiment d’efficacité personnelle (SEP). Les élèves ayant un TSA présentent des spécificités multiples pour lesquelles s’imposent souvent des aménagements dans les pratiques pédagogiques, plus spécifiquement dans les pratiques évaluatives. Selon la littérature consultée, le SEP des enseignants a un effet direct sur les pratiques enseignantes et leur santé mentale. Les résultats de notre étude proposent que l’appropriation de pratiques puisse devenir un levier dans l’évolution du SEP des enseignants lorsque ces derniers sont impliqués dans un processus de développement professionnel pour lequel des ressources adaptées et de l’accompagnement sont offerts.

Authors: Zhou Liqing
Published: October 2022

This article believes that only the national art culture is a kind of art universally accepted by the world. If there is no nationality, it is like a tree without roots and a river without a source. Music culture is the same development law. This paper aims to study the fusion of ethnic minority music cultures in northern China to study the history and future of the inclusive culture of Chinese Han residents and various ethnic minorities in northern China. In the history of China for five thousand years, the origin of the music culture of ethnic minorities in the vast land area of northern China has shown a trend of cultural integration and diversified development. Furthermore, the integration of music culture among various ethnic minorities not only effectively promotes the development of music culture but also lays a solid foundation for the colorful music culture system of the Chinese nation. This paper mainly studies the fusion of ethnic minority music culture in northern China and tries to find an effective way to further inherit and promote the ethnic minority music culture in northern China.

We report on the development of focal glomerular segmental sclerosis FSGS (collapsing variety) with nephritic symptoms immediately after receiving the first injection of the Covaxin COVID-19 vaccination and acute kidney damage (AKI) (Bharat-Biotech). A 45-year-old lady who had previously been healthy was taken to a hospital outside of the city after developing a headache and pedal edoema. She had gotten the first shot of the immunisation 10 days ago. She experienced bilateral lower limb edoema 4 days following the injection, which turned into anasarca over time. At her admission, UPCR was 7.2 and serum creatinine was 0.9 mg/dl. Over the following days, kidney function continued to deteriorate, and serum creatinine rose to 3.2 mg/dl. The patient was sent to our institution for a kidney biopsy after an abdominal ultrasound revealed normal-sized bilateral kidneys. After doing a kidney biopsy, the results were consistent with FSGS. MCD, IgA nephropathy, and anti-GBM are only a few examples of the diverse glomerulonephritis. Several m-RNA vaccinations have been associated with nephritis in the past, but not the Covaxin COVID-19 vaccine. At this point, the correlation between the immunisation and FSGS is temporal, by exclusion, and in no way clearly established. To assess the actual prevalence of this potential vaccination adverse effect, we must wait for more reports of instances that are comparable to those already reported.

Brief Outline of the History of Chemical Nomenclature
Authors: Novák Miroslav
Published: October 2022

Chemical terminology and nomenclature form an important part of chemistry. Apart from verbal terms, the important and inseparable part of nomenclature consists of symbols – logograms. They substitute names of elements and compounds and in modern nomenclatures represent their atomic or molecular weights. Old nomenclatures, first of all the alchemic one, were greatly redundant and unsystematic and used many non-compatible logograms. The first systematic nomenclature, completed by the logogram system, was created by de Morveau, Lavoisier, Berthollet, and Fourcroy (1787). The system of plausible alphabetic logograms was introduced by Berzelius (1812). The first Czech systemic nomenclature was created by Presl (1828) using only five valency suffixes; the improved nomenclature by Šafařík (1860) expressed all oxidation numbers by the word suffixes. The modern Czech chemical nomenclature tends to accept most IUPAC recommendations.
Ребенок и детский опыт в работах Ролана Барта
Authors: Серебряков Артем
Published: October 2022

This essay explores the ways Roland Barthes approached the figure of a child in his writings, from “Mythologies” to late autobiographical works. Throughout his career childhood appears to be a constant motive and a topic of Barthes’s reflection. He frequently associated children’s play or language with the dimension of immediacy, a utopian possibility of unity with the world as such and freedom from the symbolic violence of ideology. Barthes also acknowledged a crucial existential importance of childhood experience, showing how it structures later experiences such as love and writing.

Authors: Haj Zainab , Shawana Asad  , Zaheer Qureshi  , Irfan ud Din Khattak
Published: October 2022

Background: Herniotomy is standard treatment for inguinal hernia in children. Paediatric surgeons remain divided on whether ligation of sac is mandatory. In our study, we left the sac open to see early recurrence. Methods: This quasi=experimental study, done in emergency cases, was sequel to our previous study done in elective cases. It was carried out at surgical unit C of Ayub Hospital Complex, Abbottabad, from Jan 2016 to June 2020. Children from birth to 12 years of age were randomly divided into two groups. In group I (experimental), sacs were cut high up and left open during herniotomy while in group II (control), high ligation of hernia sac was done. Follow up was scheduled for day 10 and 1, 3 and 6 months. Patients were assessed for early recurrence and other complications. Results: A total of 151 emergency inguinal herniotomies were done including 147 males (97.4%) and 4 females (2.6%). 136 sacs (90.1%) were ligated with vicryl 3/0 or 4/0 while 15 sacs (9.9%) were left open. We did not find early recurrence, but found 1 case of scrotal hematoma (n=1/15) (6.7%) and 1 case of scrotal oedema (n=1/15) (6.7%) in the experimental group. In control group, complications were similar with 7 cases of hematoma (n=7/136) (5.1%) and 9 cases of scrotal oedema (n=9/136) (6.6%). Conclusion: Complications are comparable in herniotomy with or without ligation of sac but ligation adds an extra step. Herniotomy without sac ligation in children is safe and preferable in emergency setup.

Published: October 2022

ABSTRACT                                                                                                                                                                          
Background: Inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis and stimulation of smooth muscle proliferation by increased serum levels of uric acid play an important role in accelerated atherogenesis in the vessels of patients with hyperuricemia. The objective of the study was to determine the frequency of hyperuricemia in patients with acute coronary syndrome and their in-hospital outcomes.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the cardiology department of Ayub Teaching Hospital, Abbottabad from ­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­1st September, 2018 to 28th February, 2019. A total of 199 patients diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) were enrolled in this study using non-probability consecutive sampling. Diagnosis of ACS was made on history, electrocardiogram (ECG) findings and on the presence of elevated cardiac biomarkers. Serum uric acid was checked within 24 hours of presentation and patients were grouped into hyperuricemic and normouricemic groups according to uric acid levels. Next in-hospital outcomes were compared between the two groups by comparing the presence or absence of complications. The data was collected on a structured proforma and was analyzed statistically by using SPSS version 16.
Results: Out of 199 patients, 146 (73.37%) were male and 53 (26.63%) were female. The mean age of the study participants was 57.99 ± 6.07 years with a range of 48-68 years. Hyperuricemia was diagnosed in 50 (25.13%) study participants. Among complications, 15 patients (7.94%) had cardiogenic shock, 27 (13.57%) had heart failure, 10 (5.03%) had cardiac arrhythmias, 16 (8.04%) had conduction defects and hyperuricemia was diagnosed in 50 (25.13%) patients. Cardiogenic shock was more common in patients with hyperuricemia (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: Hyperuricemia is associated with a number of significant adverse outcomes for patients with an acute coronary event. Regular screening / monitoring of serum uric acid level in general population can prevent the direct and indirect morbidity associated with hyperuricemia.

Difference between Delhi and Ajrana Gharana in Tabla Playing: A Review-Based Comparative Study
Authors: Khushboo
Published: October 2022

The Delhi tabla Gharana was established by Ustad Siddharth Khan Dhaadhi. The Delhi Gharana gave birth to other Gharanas. His grandsons and their numerous students dispersed to different places across the nation and stayed there. They changed their game in response to the local conditions and created a unique playing style based on their talent, which later gained recognition as a distinct Gharana. The results of the study show that thaAjranabaz has all the characteristics of Delhi Baz. In Ajranabaz also the use of fingers in the output of words is similar to that of Delhi Baz. There isn’t much difference between the playing style of Delhi and Ajrana Gharanas. To create a unique impact, most of the compositions in this Gharana are in TishraJati (multiples of three or six counts in the original speed). The left mean or echo is not necessarily used in the Delhi Baz, in which the left is played repeatedly without raising the hand with the middle and index fingers. In Delhi Baz, soft and soft sounds are made from the right and left, so their speed is quite fast. Lastly, the Delhi Baz is the first hawk of tabla playing.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation of Mallotus philippensis (local name 'Kamela') leaf meal on rumen ciliate protozoal population, enzyme profile and fermentation characteristics in growing crossbred calves. Ten growing crossbred (Jersey — Tharparker) calves with an average body weight of 91.8Â±1.37 kg were divided in to two equal groups (G1 and G2) and fed individually under stall feeding for 140 days on a mixed ration containing paddy straw and concentrate mixture in 50:50 ratio. Two types (C1 and C2) of isonitrogenous concentrate mixtures were prepared. Wheat bran in concentrate mixture (C2) of test group (G2) was partially replaced (4 parts w/w) with sun dried ground Mallotus philippensis leaf meal. Experimental calves of test group (G2) were fed Mallotus philippensis leaf meal @ 2% of the diet. No significant differences were noticed between the two groups for daily dry matter intake while nutrient digestibility, i.e. organic matter and cellulose digestibility were higher in Mallotus philippensis leaf fed calves (G2). However, rumen pH, ammonia nitrogen concentration and total rumen protozoal as well as holotrich and spirotrich protozoal population decreased while ruminal TVFA and propionic acid production increased due to supplementation of Mallotus philippensis leaf. Activities of rumen fibre degrading enzymes e.g. carboxymethyl cellulase, xylanase and β-glucosidase enzyme activities were also higher in Mallotus philippensis leaf meal fed calves (G2). It is concluded that supplementation of Mallotus philippensis leaf have a potential for reducing rumen protozoal population and ammonia nitrogen concentration with improving rumen fibre degrading enzyme activities and nutrient digestibility in growing crossbred calves.

First lactation records of 3068 Mehsana buffaloes sired by 118 sires, under field progeny testing programme distributed in different 149 villages of 14 talukas maintained at Dudhsagar Research and Development Association, Dudhsagar Dairy, Mehsana over a period of 24 years (1989-2012) were used to estimate least squares means and heritability of fertility traits like, first service period (FSP), first calving interval (FCI) and daughter pregnancy rate (DPR). The least squares means of these traits were found to be 189.05±3.34 days, 472.97±2.87 days and 31.08±0.59%, respectively. Non genetic factors such as age at first calving and period of calving were found to have highly significant effect on all the traits, whereas, cluster found to be non-significant for FSP and significant for FCI and DPR. Heritability were estimated for FSP, FCI and DPR as 0.02±0.02, 0.004±0.015 and 0.095±0.031; 0.04±0.03, 0.026±0.024 and 0.089±0.032; and 0.01±0.02, 0.032±0.026 and 0.095±0.034 by LSML, BLUP-SM and BLUP-AM, respectively. BLUP-AM was found to be the best model for heritability estimation based on error variance and BLUP-AM gave highly significant and more accurate results than BLUP-SM and LSML in Mehsana buffaloes.

Published: October 2022

This study was conducted to compare the use of water and ethanol as solvents to extract Coleus amboinicus L. (CAL) plant and their effect on rumen fermentation and digestion in vitro. The experimental design was a 2 × 4 × 4 Factorial arrangement in Complete Random Design. The main effects were extraction solvent (water and ethanol 96%) and levels of CAL extract (0%, 2%, 4% and 6% of amount of sample incubated). The results showed that the addition of CAL extract either extracted with water or ethanol provides an ideal pH value for rumen microbial activity (6.35-6.87). The use of water as a solvent for extracting CAL plant provides a lower concentration of ammonia and protozoa population as compared to using ethanol as a solvent. The VFA values, especially acetate, butyrate and all degradation parameters were higher in water solvent. Increasing the level of use of CAL extract to 6% tends to increase the population of protozoa and reduce the concentration of acetate and all degradation parameters except for the concentration of propionate, butyrate and total VFA which did not respond to increasing CAL levels of the extract. It could be concluded that the water solvent gives better results on the fermentation and degradation of feed with a limit of 2% usage in ruminant ration.

Livestock sectors plays a very important role in Indian economy. It provides sustainable source of income for many marginal and small farmers. However, the dairy livestock owners are yet ignorant with scientific management practices. If feeding, breeding, health care and other management practices fit in proper operation, it would be possible to reach the desired level of milk production. The present study aims to assess the adoption of improved animal husbandry practicies by dairy farmers. Primary data was collected from 120 dairy farmers of Rajkot district. Adoption Index was used to study the adoption of improved animal husbandry practices by farmers. The results reveald that among improved animal husbandry practices, the highest adoption was of health-care management practices followed by clean milk production practices, breeding management practices, feeding management practices. The lowest adoption was found in calf rearing practices. Full adoption was recorded in feeding of dry fodder, feeding of green fodder, cultivation of fodder crops and observation of ailing animals whereas non adoption of animal husbandry practices was observed in dehorning of calves and feeding of silage.
Koherens i lektorutdanninga ved tre utdanningsinstitusjonar i Noreg. Ein kvalitativ studie frå eit leiingsperspektiv
Authors: Reitan Jensen Pernille
Published: October 2022

I ei tid der lektorutdanningane har stort fråfall, og der delar av dette fråfallet kan knytast til den praktiske organiseringa og mangel på samanheng mellom disiplinfag og profesjonsfag, er det behov for systematisk forsking på kva den praktiske organiseringa har å seie for samanhengen mellom disiplinfag og profesjonsfag. Denne studien undersøker korleis det vert arbeidd med koherens frå eit programleiingsperspektiv, og kva programleiinga opplever som moglege hindre i dette arbeidet. Studien tek eit programdesignperspektiv, og leiing for lektorutdanninga i nordisk ved tre norske utdanningsinstitusjonar (NTNU, UiB og UiO) har vorte intervjua gjennom semistrukturerte djupneintervju. Det er nytta teoridrive innhaldsanalyse av intervjumaterialet, som vidare vert diskutert i lys av koherensforsking, særleg koherensforsking gjort på lærarutdanning. Artikkelen viser at sjølv om utdanningsinstitusjonane har ulik organisering av sine utdanningar, eksisterer dei same utfordringane når det gjeld samanhengen og samarbeid mellom fagdidaktikk og disiplinfag. Det er manglar når det gjeld samarbeidsplattformer internt, samt mangel på ein felles tanke om kva lektorutdanninga skal vere. Artikkelen gjev eit bidrag til diskusjonen om koherens på programdesignnivå, og er eit bidrag til det vidare arbeidet med koherens i lektorutdanninga.

Authors:   INSTITUTE OF ISLAMIC UNDERSTANDING MALAYSIA (IKIM), MALAYSIA, Omar Mohd. Noor
Published: October 2022

Money is a social convention performing its functions to facilitate the socio-economic ecosystem. For decades, money has evolved from barter, rare piece, metal, fiat and presently a distributed blockchainbased digital money. Monetary authorities around the world are expected to advance their own national Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) that works effectively and efficiently. Several studies have investigated the technical, economic and feasibility of CBDC that might have an impact on monetary policy and liquidity. This study employs the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah framework to investigate an ethical dimension of CBDC and lay out an Islamic principal guideline. The findings introduce an ethical ecosystem useful to signify the viability type of CBDC with specific characteristics and features. This is also possible in modelling the compliance aspects of digital monetary system to the Islamic monetary framework.
Face-to-Face VS. Emergency Remote Teaching During the Covid-19 Lockdown. A Comparative Analysis of Ecuadorian Undergraduate Polytechnic Students’ Performance
Authors: Estrella Felix
Published: October 2022

The COVID-19 outbreak has changed education, mainly by shifting face-to-face classes to online sessions. Online courses are not new as many educational institutions offer distance or hybrid learning courses. However, emergency remote teaching (ERT), into which education has shifted, attains differences. This study aims to identify student performance differences depending on teaching modality (face-to-face and ERT). Studies considering the COVID-19 pandemic and information originating from Ecuador are scarce, making this study relevant. This quantitative research used a two-way ANOVA to analyze skills results from exams given in the academic year 2019 (face-to-face) and 2020 (ERT). Results were not statistically significant at p < .05, which concurs with the existing literature.

Published: October 2022

Abstract In this review, we discuss the latest developments in research pertaining to virus-induced asthma exacerbations and consider recent advances in treatment options. Asthma is a chronic disease of the airways that continues to impose a substantial clinical burden worldwide. Asthma exacerbations, characterised by an acute deterioration in respiratory symptoms and airflow ob- struction, are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. These episodes are most commonly triggered by respiratory virus infections. The mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of virus-induced exacerbations have been the focus of extensive biomedical research. Developing a robust understanding of the interplay between respiratory viruses and the host immune response will be critical for developing more efficacious, targeted therapies for exacerbations.Conclusion. There has been sig- nificant recent progress in our understanding of the mechanisms underlying virus-induced airway inflammation in asthma and these advances will underpin the development of future clinical therapies.
Peanut Allergy – No Longer a Life Sentence
Authors: Chong Kok Wee , Turner Paul J.
Published: October 2022

In this review we provide an overview on the latest knowledge in the prevention and active management of peanut allergy. The rise in incidence of food allergy has generated new challenges in the management of affected individuals. Strategies to counter- act the increase in prevalence of peanut allergy can be considered as a pyramid, beginning with primary prevention of those at risk through earlier introduction of peanut into the infant diet, to secondary prevention of peanut-sensitised children through improvements in the correct diagnosis of peanut allergy and finally to the treatment of children with proven peanut allergy.Conclusion. With the paradigm shift towards an active management, peanut allergy should no longer be seen as a life sentence.
