The Political Ecology of Urban Expansion and Air Pollution in Kathmandu
Authors: Acharya Abinav
Published: August 2024

This study analyzes the relationship between rapid urbanization, political priorities, and air quality issues in Kathmandu city of Nepal, aiming to identify sustainable urban planning solutions. Utilizing secondary data sources, such as governmental reports, environmental studies, and urban development records, the research employs a mixed-methods approach to analyze the factors driving urban expansion and their impact on air pollution. Key variables measured include population density, urban growth rate, traffic volume, industrial activity, and green space availability. The findings reveal that unregulated urban growth, driven by economic and infrastructural priorities, significantly contributes to deteriorating air quality. Political decisions often prioritize development over environmental protection, leading to insufficient enforcement of pollution control measures. Critical gaps in urban planning policies, such as the lack of green spaces and weak regulatory frameworks for industrial emissions, are identified. To address these issues, the study suggests implementing stricter air quality regulations, promoting green infrastructure, and enhancing public transportation systems. It recommends increasing inter-agency collaboration to integrate environmental considerations into urban development plans and engaging local communities in environmental decision-making processes. The research concludes that balancing development goals with environmental sustainability is essential for mitigating pollution and promoting healthier urban living conditions in Kathmandu.
Maximal Duality Mappings On Banach Spaces
Authors: Bhatt Biseswar Prasad
Published: August 2024

The analytical features of a Banach space K are characterized by the duality mappings on a Banach space K. One example of a monotone duality mapping on K is the subdifferential of proper convex functions on K. In this case, we look at various instances of normalized duality mappings as well as the idea of monotone operators on K. The surjectivity of the duality mappings and the notions of hemicontinuity and demicontinuity are crucial. If A and B are two monotone mappings then their sum is always monotone mapping but the sum of maximal monotone mapping may not be maximal in general. Ultimately, the circumstance that results in the sum of two maximal monotone sets becoming a maximal monotone is revealed.

Authors: Lamichhane Dipak Raj
Published: August 2024

The study of causal relationship between Nepal's economic growth and bank-based financial development was carried out by using time series data since 1964. The Granger causality test was applied to measure the causality between the bank-based financial development and economic growth. The proxy variable for bank-based financial development are: private sector credit by Banks and Financial Institutions to GDP, bank deposits mobilized by BFIs to GDP, inflation – an indicator for macroeconomic stability. Inflation is also a variable inserted to cater omitted variable in this study. The objective of the research and findings are: private sector credit by Banks and Financial Institutions to GDP and bank deposits mobilized by BFIs to GDP do not cause economic growth individually but including, inflation – an indicator for macroeconomic stability and a variable inserted to cater omitted variable in this study, causes economic growth. Economic growth causes bank deposits to increase. Economic growth does not cause private sector credit to increase. Similarly, gross capital formation also contributes to economic growth in Nepal.
A Critical Review of Timber as a Structural Material
Authors: Dotel Nischal
Published: August 2024

The structure refers to the component of the building that maintains its stability. The beam, column, slab, and foundation are the major integral units of the structure. The major challenge while designing the structure for a building is to select materials for its units. Generally, reinforced cement concrete (RCC) is used worldwide in the current context. The search for the perfect material to replace RCC has been ongoing for decades. Timber can be the perfect material everyone has been searching for. It is made of wood, which is harvested from trees. This paper focuses on the process of installation and mechanical properties that make timber suitable for construction. Timber has ideal characteristics and mechanical properties that make it fit for the structure. Several mechanical properties have been tested in the lab, making timber a suitable replacement for existing RCC.
The timber has a compressive strength of 500 Kg/cm2 to 700 Kg/cm2, which makes it mechanically acceptable to use as a structural material. It also has other mechanical properties in acceptable ranges. The tensile strength of timber is 500 Kg/cm2 to 2000 Kg/cm2. It also has a favourable density of 300Kg/M3 to 900Kg/M3. Several problems occur with timber, too, which makes it questionable. But still, timber holds good credit. Major problems with timber, for example,  low fire resistance, difficulty installing, and decay after contact with moisture, can be solved by applying the respective remedies. Overall, timber can be one of the best replacements for RCC in terms of suitability.

The effectiveness of various hemodiafiltration (HDF) modes in removing different toxins is not fully understood. The present study aimed to compare the efficacy of manual mixed online HDF with pre-dilution online HDF, post-dilution online HDF, and conventional hemodialysis in clearing medium molecular weight toxins.
Methods. This single-center, crossover observational study included 11 patients (7 males, 4 females) aged 48-85 years (mean age 65.2±11.7) with a dialysis vintage of 24-455 months (mean duration 126±123 months), including 10-29 months (mean duration 19.5±6.4) on HDF. The study focused on the removal of two medium molecular weight molecules: beta 2-microglobulin and the larger prolactin. The effectiveness of various dialysis modes was evaluated in single sessions for each patient, including pre-dilution online HDF (Group A), post-dilution online HDF (Group B), a mixed dilution model with post-dilution during the first half of the session and pre-dilution during the second half (Group C), and conventional hemodialysis (Group D).
Results. A statistically significant difference in the reduction of serum beta 2-microglobulin levels was observed in Group B compared to Group A (70.6±3.1% vs. 64.4±2.7%, p<0.0001) and Group C (70.6±3.1% vs. 65.9±4.9%, p<0.001), with no significant difference between Groups A and C (p=NS). For serum prolactin levels, the greatest reduction was noted in Group B, with significant differences compared to Group A (52.5±8.9% vs. 36.2±9.5%, p<0.001) and Group C (52.5±8.9% vs. 46.9±5.2%, p=0.03). Additionally, Group C showed a significant difference compared to Group A (46.9±5.2% vs. 36.2±9.5%, p<0.005).
Conclusions. Post-dilution HDF is the most effective mode for removing beta 2-microglobulin and prolactin. Mixed dilution HDF also shows significant efficacy, surpassing pre-dilution HDF in toxin clearance. These findings highlight the advantage of post-dilution techniques in managing medium molecular weight toxins. Further research is needed to explore these results in greater detail and to confirm their clinical implications.

Aging of hematopoietic system might result from hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) and micro-environmental alterations with changes at the location, regulation and function of HSC and their progeny. Hereby, we can state the relative contribution of the aged micro-environment and the graduate alterations which changed hematopoiesis and increased incidence of age-related diseases originating in the bone marrow environment. Here, we focus on a better understanding of the biology of aging in HSCs and their niche. In summary, studies on the micro-environment that maintains and regulates HSC and its niche suggested that micro-environmental aging contributes to declined HSC function over time. After this period, aged HSCs and their derivatives remodel the niche in changing to favor myeloid expansion.

Investigating the Impact of Explicit and Implicit Instruction on Pragmatic Awareness and Production in Non-Native Learners: A Quasi-Experimental Research
Authors: Mubasher Ghulam , Iqbal Muhammad , Rubab Iqra
Published: August 2024

A crucial part of language competency is understanding social interactions to extract pertinent semantic cues in any expression's implied meaning besides grammatical and strategic competencies (Taguchi, 2011). Teaching of pragmatics is around 40 year older concept (Chen, 2011) while it is teachable (Bardovi,1999). The purpose of any language is communication (Locke, 1975) and avoiding face-threatening responses. Penelope (1987) elaborates on ways that are used to develop positive social interaction. Politeness theory is based on the concept of "face," which refers to a person's sense of self-esteem. Penelope’s (1987) “Politeness Theory” has been used in this study as a guiding theoretical framework. A mixed method approach has been adopted for getting real insight into the matter as the development of pragmatics. The study aims to find out the better way of teaching pragmatics and the impact of implicit and explicit teaching on the pragmatic production and awareness of communicative competence (Glaser, 2009).
Dwudziestolecie Polski w strukturach Unii Europejskiej – kluczowe zmiany na polskim rynku pracy
Authors: Papka Karol
Published: August 2024

Trudna sytuacja panująca na polskim rynku pracy wpłynęła na masową migrację Polaków do państw europejskich. Przystąpienie Polski do struktur Unii Europejskiej w połączeniu z liberalizacją przepisów dotyczących przepływu obywateli i kapitału w okresie pierwszej dekady znacząco przyspieszyła proces migracji w celach zarobkowych. Powyższe stwierdzenie potwierdzają wysokie kwoty środków transferowanych z zagranicy do Polski. Dodatkowym czynnikiem, który wpłynął na pobudzenie zjawiska migracji w celach zarobkowych, było otwarcie rynku pracy na polskich migrantów przez państwa sąsiadujące – szczególnie Niemcy. Wówczas (2013 r.) struktura przepływów finansowych uległa znaczącej zmianie, gdyż to państwo niemieckie stało się krajem, z którego każdego roku do dziś napływają najwyższe wartości środków finansowych. Niemiecki rynek pracy na początku XXI w. borykał się z wysokim bezrobociem oraz systematycznym odpływem kapitału. Przyczynami takiego stanu rzeczy były wysokie koszty pracy. Ciągły napływ nowej siły roboczej oraz wyhamowanie rosnących kosztów zatrudnienia stopniowo wpłynęły na pobudzenie atrakcyjności gospodarki niemieckiej jako miejsca dogodnego dla inwestorów. Istotnym działaniem podjętym przez władze niemieckie w celu redukcji bezrobocia było przystosowanie systemu edukacji do aktualnego zapotrzebowania występującego na niemieckim rynku pracy.

The expression level of myosin heavy and light chains genes (myhc, mlc-2), transcription myogenic regulation factors (myf5, myog, myod1 paralogs), myostatin paralogs and insulin-like growth factors (igf1 and igf2) in the muscles of salmon fingerlings artificially grown under different lighting and feeding conditions at a constant water temperature was studied in the region of North Ossetia-Alania. The combined effect of lighting and feeding modes was reflected in the expression of the genes myhc, mlc-2, myod1a, myf5, myod1b, myod1c. Thus, individuals reared under constant lighting conditions were distinguished by higher levels of expression of the myf5, myhc and mlc-2 genes compared to fish in natural light, which also corresponded to their higher growth rates. The expression of IGF genes varied in different ways throughout the experiment: the expression level of the igf1 gene increased, and the igf2 gene first increased after a month of study, then decreased on the second month. The results indicate differences in the processes of myogenesis regulation depending on lighting and feeding conditions.
