Modern literature materials on the main aspects of etiopathogenesis and diagnosis of dry eye syndrome in patients who plan to undergo keratorefractive surgery are presented. There are etiopathogenetic aspects of the development of induced dry eye syndrome after keratorefractive surgery. This requires examination of the ocular surface before and after surgery. There is a phasing in performing diagnostic screening of the xerosis of the ocular surface. A comprehensive diagnostic approach to the examination’s state of the ocular surface, which consists of subjective and objective data, the results of laboratory research methods, creates a holistic view of the homeostasis of the ocular surface in refractive profile patients. This diagnostic profile will determine the choice of optimal refractive surgery technology, patient management tactics and features of the course of the postoperative period. Key words: tear film, ocular surface, dry eye syndrome, refractive surgery

Аннотация. Обнаружение ландшафтных изменений на основе разновременных, мультиспектральных и мультисенсорных спутниковых изображений с накоплением огромного массива архивных данных и многочисленных методологических разработок становится главным инструментом для территориального планирования и оценок устойчивости геосистем. Динамика и эволюция горных мерзлотных ландшафтов Арктики и северотаежных регионов представляют интерес процессам в контексте изменения климатических условий в следствии глобального потепления. Для изучения структурным и хорологическим процессов ландшафтных изменений часто используются большие массивы разновременных спутниковых данных, охватывающих 30-летный период. Как показывают многочисленные публикации, по-прежнему трудным является выбор подходящего метода обнаружения изменений, особенно в сложных горных территориях с ярко выраженными функциональными изменениями в ландшафтах. В этой статье мы демонстрируем методику моделирования динамики горных мерзлотных ландшафтов на восточном склоне хребта Орулган (Северо-Восток Сибири). Анализ главных компонент был использован для улучшения информации об изменениях из суммированных мультиспектральных разновременных данных. Результаты показали, что в период с 1999 по 2021 год в горных мерзлотных ландшафтах произошли значительные изменения, связанные с процессами сдвигов границ бореальных лесов и «озеленения» тундры.

Аннотация. За последние более 60-и лет в связи с открытием на Сибирской платформе (СП) коренных месторождений алмазов создана и успешно развивается алмазодобывающая промышленность. Разведанные и утвержденные запасы коренных и россыпных месторождений позволяют осуществлять добычу алмазов во все возрастающих объёмах. Для восполнения убывающих запасов алмазов необходимо как открытие новых алмазоносных кимберлитовых диатрем, так и вовлечение в отработку россыпных месторождений (древних и современных россыпей), характеризующихся значительными запасами полезного компонента. Поскольку фонд легко открываемых и выходящих на дневную поверхность коренных месторождений алмазов на территории Якутской алмазоносной провинции (ЯАП) практически исчерпан, то их поиски переместились на закрытые площади, где отмечается широкое развитие разнофациальных континентальных и прибрежно-морских терригенных отложений верхнего палеозоя и мезозоя значительной мощности, перекрывающих кимберлитовые диатремы. Важнейшим этапом стратиграфических исследований в перспективных регионах явилось выделение в Малоботуобинском алмазоносном районе (МБАР) СП континентальных верхнепалеозойских (лапчанская, ботуобинская и боруллойская свиты), терригенных верхнетриасово-нижнеюрских (иреляхская и укугутская свиты) и прибрежно-морских мезозойских (плинсбахский и тоарский ярусы) отложений, в различной степени обогащенных алмазоносным материалом. Литологические особенности этих отложений во многом обусловлены переотложенным материалом широко развитых на этих территориях древних кор выветривания (КВ) на терригенно-карбонатных породах, долеритах, туфогенных образованиях и кимберлитах. Изучение продуктов перемыва этих КВ в мезозойских осадочных толщах основных алмазоносных районов СП позволили восстановить особенности их структурно-формационного формирования. Отмечено, что для мезозойского времени в целом характерны специфические особенности перемыва и переотложения продуктов различных КВ, обусловленные развитием в алмазоносных регионах различных структурно-формационных зон. В МБАР формирование формации продуктов перемыва КВ определялось развитием двух структурно-формационных зон. Проведенными исследованиями подчеркнута важность стратиграфических исследований на всех стадиях проводимых геолого-поисковых работ на алмазы. Очень важно выделять в разрезах осадочных толщ горизонты, обогащенные материалом местных источников сноса, главными среди которых являются коры выветривания различных пород (в том числе кимберлитов).

The daily strive to get to work and back home through traffic congestions; passing the day without conflicts; improving the life style when money is short; overcoming medical problems; raising and securing the family, and tolerating unfulfilled dreams are only a portion of constantly bothering issues. No wonder then that in this chaotic reality and despite various joyful and satisfying moments, the majority of grown-ups claim that they are unhappy. Amazingly, however, there are always those who believe and declare that they are happy, which raises the question what is happiness and what is it constituted from. Google suggests that “Happiness is that feeling that comes over you when you know life is good and you can’t help but smile. It’s the opposite of sadness. Happiness is a sense of well-being, joy, or contentment. When people are successful, or safe, or lucky, they feel happy”. This description combines a number of positive experiences and feelings, that most likely affect our brain to release chemicals recognized as the ‘good guys’, in contrast to the ‘bad guys’, chemicals secreted in situations of sadness, agony, pain, failures, disappointments and frustrations that affect brain circuits associated with unpleasant emotions and thoughts. Although moments of satisfaction, joy and pleasure raise good feelings, these are usually temporary, whereas happiness in its broader essence reflects a positive state of mind based on numerous parameters that collectively raise a long-lasting contentment. When a person claims he is happy, he probably disregards his difficulties and concentrates on a particular issue that makes him feel good (e.g., love, professional success, good health, overcoming a major difficulty, listening to beloved music, winning in sport).

Diabetes being one the fastest occurring disease globally and leading to the increase in death rates. In this review we identified the prevalence, epidemiology, types, diagnosis, management and mainly focusing on all the genes and their variants responsible for diabetes mellitus and diabetes insipidus studied and found till date. It was found that there are 18 regions/60 genes are involved in Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) by use of genome-wide association study (GWAS) studies combined with new technologies such as Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) array genotyping, meta-analysis, taq sequencing etc. The gene that have higher risk in developing T1D is found to be in the region of Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus 1 (IDDM1) containing Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) gene and it’s haplotypes HLA-DQ, HLA-DR, and HLA-DP while several other genes has been also discussed but the mechanisms of pathogenesis still unclear. In Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) many genes have been put forward as candidate genes through (GWAS) and large meta-analysis, but only few susceptibility genes have shown convincing association in several studies, includes Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ (PPARG γ), Potassium Inwardly Rectifying Channel Subfamily J Member 11( KCNJ11), Transcription Factor7-Like 2 (TCF7L2) and WFS1.In contrast gene responsible for hereditary, central and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus are mutated Arginine Vasopressin-Neurophysin II (AVP-NPII) gene and either The Arginine Vasopressin Receptor 2 (AVPR2) or Aquaporin 2 (AQP2) gene respectively and studied through sequence analysis.
A Case of Pseudohypoparathyroidism - Rarely Encountered in Clinical Practice
Authors:   Associate Professor, Department of Medicine, Ad-din Women’s Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh, RR Gomes
Published: March 2023

Physiological intracranial calcification occurs in about 0.3-1.5% of cases. It is asymptomatic and detected incidentally by neuroimaging. Pathological basal ganglia calcification is due to various causes, such as: metabolic disorders, infectious and genetic diseases. Hypoparathyroidism and pseudohypoparathyroidism are the one of the causes of pathological basal ganglia calcification. Besides tetany and seizures this condition is presented by parkinsonism and dementia. Infections (toxoplasmosis, rubella, cytomegalovirus, cysticercosis, AIDS) give multiple and asymmetric intracranial calcification. Inherited and neurodegenerative diseases cause symmetrical, bilateral basal ganglia calcification which is not related to metabolic disorders. Fahr’s syndrome is a rare entity characterized by the presence of bilateral intracranial calcifications with predilection for the basal ganglia and dentate nuclei. It is commonly associated with endocrine disorders, particularly parathyroid and Vitamin D disturbances. Herein we report a case of pseudohypoparathyroidism revealed by Fahr’s disease.

Diabetes and erectile dysfunction often go hand in hand. Different types of medications and therapies are required for the effective management of erectile dysfunction. Treatment options for erectile dysfunction in diabetes patients are discussed in this article. Effectiveness and limitation of the medications have been clarified here and, finally, side effects and contraindication of different medications for erectile dysfunction management have also been reflected. Erectile dysfunction treatment in diabetes patients not only depends on selecting proper medication, but glycaemic control also; therefore, both diabetes and ED are required to treat simultaneously.

The development of reagents that can selectively react in complex biological media is an important challenge. Here we show that N1-alkylation of 1,2,4-triazines yields the corresponding triazinium salts, which are three orders of magnitude more reactive in reactions with strained alkynes than the parent 1,2,4-triazines. This powerful bioorthogonal ligation enables efficient modification of peptides and proteins. The positively charged N1-alkyl triazinium salts exhibit favorable cell permeability, which makes them superior for intracellular fluorescent labeling applications when compared to analogous 1,2,4,5-tetrazines. Due to their high reactivity, stability, accessibility and improved water solubility, the new ionic heterodienes represent a valuable addition to the repertoire of existing modern bioorthogonal reagents.

Published: March 2023

Polarizable force fields are pervasive in the fields of computational chemistry and biochemistry; however, their empirical or semi-empirical nature gives them both weaknesses and strengths. Here, we have developed a hybrid water potential, named q-AQUA-pol, by combining our recent ab initio q-AQUA potential with the TTM3-F water potential. The new potential demonstrates unprecedented accuracy ranging from gas-phase clusters, e.g., the eight low-lying isomers of the water hexamer, to the condensed phase, e.g., radial distribution functions, the self-diffusion coefficient, triplet OOO distribution, and the temperature dependence of the density. This represents a significant advancement in the field of polarizable machine learning potential and computational modeling.

Voice of Vision – Crafting Christian Culture as Symbolic Stories: An Arts-based Inquiry approach to exploring how mission and vision are enacted in New Zealand Christian Schools.
Authors:   , Snedden Erika
Published: March 2023

The centrality of school vision to inspire learning is shaped by the principal, leadership, and staff. School vision cannot remain aspirational but must be consciously constructed showing the distinctive character and culture attributed to schools by their guiding statements. Due to the paucity of empirical research within Christian educational contexts, this thesis presented insight into how understandings of mission and vision, embedded in school guiding statements, are enacted in three New Zealand Christian schools. Further to this, the thesis showed the ways in which these practices are shaped by personal and professional leadership influences and culture.

Qualitative methodologies, Appreciative Inquiry (AI), and Arts-based inquiry methods informed the research process to ascertain what narrative themes predominated. Participants were positioned to actively engage in crafting participatory methods as a lens through which to study the culture of their schools. The accumulative work (Photovoice and art assemblage) and findings were presented in an exhibition that traveled to each school. Through the narrative process of “storying”, participants gave voice to their schools’ cultural stories. The resulting metaphorical and polyvocal portraits reveal that Christian educators have a shared stewardship responsibility to govern, lead, serve, equip, inspire schools as collaborative learning spaces and constructively be culture creators.

The findings suggest that the schools’ guiding statements are grounded and engineered within the multiple ecologies and etymology of community. Furthermore, the growth and formation of school leadership and culture are symbiotic typologies of organisational structure. For the schools in this study, cultural unity has been achieved through a focus on leadership development, service, and strong generational connections between school, Church, and home. The study raised an appreciation for the cultural and leadership influences within each school. This suggests that the use of school guiding statements for systematic and systemic reflection holds promise for both the research community and various educational stakeholders.

Published: March 2023

Low temperatures during the early growing stages limit the productivity of maize considerably. Investigating responses of different coloured corns (Zea mays L.) to chilling may reveal alternative genotypes which can be preferred under early sowing conditions of water-shortage farming areas. The aim of this study is determining whether the color factor affects the tolerance to chilling in maize and which properties are effective on the low temperature tolerance. We exposed corns with different colours (white, yellow, red, purple) to different temperatures [8°C, 12°C, 16°C, 25°C (control)] and analysed the effects of temperature on morphological, physiological, bio-active properties and stress indicators. Using 14-day old seedlings, we noted that purple corn had the highest seedling length, seedling weight, chlorophyll content, stomatal conductance, chlorophyll B and total phenolic content in the 8°C and followed by white (photosynthesis rate, chlorophyll fluorescence, chlorophyll A and carotenoids), yellow (transpiration rate, sub stomatal CO2, and total antioxidant activity) and red corns (water use efficiency, total anthocyanin content and proline). On the other hand, white corn maintained its superiority in other treatments, receiving the highest values in 9 of 17 characteristics at 12°C, in 8 of 17 at 16°C and in 10 of 17 in the control. Performance of purple corn in the 8°C was the most remarkable one in all genotypes and treatments. Based on our results, it has been concluded that white and purple corns are more chilling tolerant genotypes and may be alternative for early sowing conditions in drought farming areas.

En países como Ecuador, donde ya existía una crisis económica previa, la situación fue peor que en otros contextos. Quienes son parte de la academia deben preocuparse más allá del cumplimiento de sus obligaciones. En un trabajo que continúa en desarrollo, desde la experiencia específica de enseñanza no presencial, se han obtenido algunas conclusiones que permitirían, en primer lugar, evidenciar la factibilidad de los procesos de enseñanza aprendizaje a pesar de la dificultad de las condiciones actuales; en segundo lugar, enfrentar el cambio que sufrirá la sociedad en general como consecuencia de la pandemia; y, finalmente, en cuanto se supere la situación sanitaria y los desafíos en los procesos de aprendizaje universitario que conlleva, tomar en cuenta las condiciones del desempeño de la arquitectura como tal, que encontrarán los estudiantes graduados en un mundo diferente al existente hasta el 2019, ante cambios en lo social y económico del contexto, que requerirán comprender primero e innovar después, considerando que los esquemas docentes aplicados correspondían a un mundo diferente.
dilema de la virtualidad en la educación: caso Ecuador
Authors: Cilio Mejía Sebastián
Published: March 2023

En el presente trabajo se analizó el modelo educativo ecuatoriano en el contexto de la pandemia, se efectuó una comparación entre el sistema educativo presencial del 2019 y el sistema virtual empleado desde mayo de 2020. El análisis se centra en la descripción de las brechas que el sistema virtual ha ampliado; en ese sentido, se ha tomado en cuenta una metodología cuantitativa que ha incorporado la base de datos del Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censos (inec), el Ministerio de Educación y el Banco Mundial (bm). La investigación sugiere que la incorporación de la virtualidad ha ampliado la brecha entre los sectores rural y urbano en cuanto al aprendizaje, cobertura y permanencia de los estudiantes en las instituciones, tanto públicas como privadas, exacerbando este problema en las primeras. El haber tomado en cuenta el contexto previo a la pandemia ha puesto en evidencia que Ecuador no estaba preparado para asumir una modalidad virtual, como modalidad principal, mientras que los datos arrojados durante la pandemia han demostrado que Ecuador tiene deficiencias para generar políticas públicas estructurales a mediano y largo plazo debido a la falta de datos estadísticos sobre el tema.

Es importante destacar que cuanto mayor es el nivel educativo de los padres, mejor es el rendimiento académico de los hijos. Con la dedicación de tiempo para apoyar y controlar los deberes de sus hijos. El objetivo de esta investigación es determinar la incidencia del nivel educativo de los padres en el rendimiento académico de los alumnos en la asignatura de inglés.  Para ello, se realizó una investigación correlacional-descriptiva basada en un enfoque cuantitativo para las variables descritas. Para la investigación se utilizó una muestra representativa de 76 alumnos y padres. Se construyeron dos encuestas con 4 secciones y 16 ítems basados en la escala de Likert.  Para los padres (datos generales-datos generales-estudios realizados-apoyo al alumno-profesor). Para los alumnos (rendimiento académico en inglés y su percepción-apoyo de los padres y seguimiento-apoyo de los padres al profesor). Para el análisis estadístico se utilizó el paquete estadístico SPSS 22. En los resultados, se encontró que la encuesta tiene un coeficiente de fiabilidad para el rendimiento académico, 0,812; y para el nivel educativo de los padres 0,818 respectivamente. Asimismo, se encontró la existencia de una incidencia significativa entre las variables. Además, se encontró una falta de implicación de los padres en el desarrollo educativo de sus hijos en inglés. En conclusión, el nivel educativo de los padres influye directamente en el rendimiento académico de los alumnos, ya que su desconocimiento de la lengua inglesa no les permite prestar el apoyo necesario en el desarrollo de las actividades del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Así como en las tareas complementarias destinadas a apoyar y fortalecer las habilidades en inglés en el hogar.

Authors: Aziz Perdana  , Erik Iman HU  , Rianto
Published: March 2023

The use of blockchain technology in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) has gained popularity, with 23 public companies and one country holding bitcoin. DeFi aims to create an open and decentralized financial ecosystem that is accessible to everyone, eliminates intermediaries like financial institutions, and is verifiable, immutable, globally accepted, fast, low-cost, anonymous, and non-custodial. Despite its benefits, the rapid growth of DeFi has led to increased security risks. This study assesses the validity of DeFi's superiority claims in light of security incidents and events in 2022 and Twitter trends. This study used a Systematic Literature Review from various research articles and news from 2022. This research found that DeFi's superiority claims seem to be inconsistent with what is being advertised. It also found that if DeFi is not properly prepared and audited, its strength (Anonymous, open-source, decentralized, non-custodial, eliminates third parties and regulation) may become its weakness. Despite this, users still exhibit high levels of trust and optimism, as seen in the most popular terms shared by user tweets during significant losses, with 301,654 unique tweets between April 30 and May 31, 2022 and 344,519 unique tweets between October 3 and December 3, 2022, that are crypto, nft, and blockchain.

Traffic Police Corps (Korlantas Polri) is the executor of the main duties of the Indonesian National Police in the areas of security, safety, order and smooth traffic. Korlantas has some information that can be accessed by the public, namely information on congestion, accidents, traffic flow status, vital objects, road conditions, data and visual images from CCTV, public service conditions, and traffic infrastructure. However, these data are stand alone and not integrated with their respective applications and systems. The purpose of this study is to analyze the strategy for implementing an integrated information system at Korlantas Polri and what steps can be taken to integrate the existing system. This study uses the Zachman Framework which is adapted to Enterprise Architecture Planning (EAP) and qualitative data collection methods by interviewing stakeholders who are involved in managing information systems at Korlantas Polri. The results obtained are the need for a data warehouse by implementing an AI based integrated database system, Geospatial Information System, Business Intelligence and DSS, as well as Smart Visualization to visualize existing data. Then standardize the need for equipment and support for improving the ability of personnel in the IT field.

Bu çalışmanın amacı bireylerin sağlık biliş düzeylerinin sigarayı bırakma davranışı üzerine etkisinin incelenmesidir. Bu amaçla nicel araştırma modeli kullanılarak Hadjistavropoulos ve arkadaşları (2012) tarafından geliştirilen Yılmaz
ve Dirik tarafından (2018) tarafından Türkçeye geçerlilik ve güvenirliği yapılan sağlık bilişleri ölçeği ile Kurcer ve Erdoğan (2019) tarafından geliştirilen ve geçerlilik ve güvenirliği yapılan sigara bırakma ölçeği kullanılmıştır.
Araştırmanın gerçekleşmesi adına verilere ulaşmak için Google Forms aracılığıyla elektronik ortam üzerinden bireylere ulaşılmıştır. Veriler SPSS 22 paket programı yardımıyla analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın analizlerini tanımlayıcı
analizler, t testi, tek yönlü varyans testi analizi korelasyon analizi oluşturmaktadır. Analizlere göre katılımcıların çoğunluğunu %30,8 oranında 18-26 yaş grubu oluştururken, cinsiyet bakımından bakıldığında katılımcıların %45,9’unu
kadınlar, %54,1’ni erkekler oluşturmuştur. Korelasyon sonucunda bireylerin sigara bırakma eğilimleri ile sağlık bilişleri alt faktörleri arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki (p<0.05) tespit edilmiştir. Böylelikle bireylerin
sağlık bilişlerinin sigara bırakma eğilimleri üzerine pozitif yönde orta düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki sonucu itibari ile bireylerin sağlık bilişleri geliştiğinde sigara bırakma eğilimlerinde artış yaşanacağı görülmüştür.

Two-tier currency system for the member countries of the Organization of Turkic States
Authors: Abdybaly tegin Suerkul , Ganiev Junus
Published: March 2023

The article provides an analysis of the world currency systems and justification for the need to change the world monetary system. The concept of a two-level national currency system based on the introduction of an additional national
currency backed by gold is proposed. Such an innovation will significantly enhance the savings function of the national currency and reduce the population's propensity to dollarize their savings. This will also reduce the role
of world reserve currencies, which may become a new stage in the development of a new world monetary system. Ultimately, this may increase the role of national currencies in making payments in international trade and will lead
to a fall in the role of world reserve currencies. Such innovation will have a positive impact on the further strengthening of mutual trade within the Organization of Turkic States. A preliminary assessment was carried out on the
example of Turkey and Kyrgyzstan. Some assessments are also given for other OTS member countries. Gold national currency can be introduced in the form of banknotes, bank accounts, and electronic money. The technical solution depends
on the specifics and capabilities of each country, as well as on the preferences of local populations.

16 Nisan 2017 tarihinde yapılan halkoylaması ile Türkiye, yüzyıldan fazladır uyguladığı parlamenter hükümet sistemi modelini terk ederek başkanlık modelinin bir yansıması olarak ifade edilebilecek olan Cumhurbaşkanlığı Hükümet Sistemine
geçiş yapmıştır. Yeni hükümet sisteminde çift başlı yürütme yetkisi sona erdirilmiş ve Cumhurbaşkanı bizzat hem yürütmenin kendisi hem de devletin temsilcisi olmuştur. Bu sistemde kuvvetler ayrılığı prensibi ve erkler arasındaki
dengeler yeniden ele alınmıştır. Özellikle yasama ve yürütme erkleri arasındaki dengeler yeni sisteme göre yeniden dizayn edilmiştir. Söz konusu değişiklikler paradigma değişikliği niteliğinde olup, derinlemesine bir incelemeyi
ve literatürde tartışılmayı hak etmektedir. Bu bağlamda çalışmada öncelikle Cumhurbaşkanlığı Hükümet Sisteminin temel özellikleri ve getirdiği yenilikler ele alınmış ve bu yeniliklerin beraberinde getirdiği fırsatlar ve sorunlar
tespit edilmeye çalışılmış, söz konusu fırsatların yönetim sistemine hız, esneklik ve rasyonalite katacağı sonucuna varılmıştır. Diğer yandan potansiyel sorun alanlarının ise sistemde ve uygulamada yapılacak olan revizyonlarla
iyileştirilebileceği düşünülmektedir.
