Multi-objective optimization model-based training program development for athletes in college physical education
Authors: Guan Di , Wang Zhou
Published: June 2024

Digital technology has been used in a large number of applications in all aspects of life and various fields. In the field of sports, digital training has been increasingly emphasized by frontline coaches, athletes, and sports researchers. In this paper, by building an objective optimization model, combining particle swarm optimization, and optimizing the computation process with the Kriging agent model, we formulate the most suitable training plan for college athletes and improve the scientific level of college athletes’ training. The multi-objective optimization training plan can accurately enhance the athletes’ physical fitness, physical quality, and sports skills, and the IRM and maximal power of bench press and half squat showed an increasing trend after the training. The body composition (body fat) and longitudinal jump (lower limb explosive power) improved to a certain extent before and after the training. There were significant differences in the sports skill evaluation of the 50-meter run and the three-stage continuous frog jump; the p-value was less than 0.05. The p-values were all less than 0.05. The scientific and practicality of the training program for college athletes based on the multi-objective optimization model is confirmed when the value falls below 0.05.
International Migration from a Semi-Periphery City: The Case of Baia Mare
Authors: Solonean Dana
Published: June 2024

Many post-socialist cities in Romania experience population decline caused by both negative natural growth and large-scale international migration. This study seeks to advance an understanding of post-socialist migratory flows from the city of Baia Mare to Western labour markets in terms of its mode of incorporation into the global economy. Using a historical structural lens, the study traces the critical economic transformations, political moments or institutions that influenced migratory flows from Baia Mare. It argues that from its semi-peripheral position, the city’s role, after the regime change, became that of a supplier of cheap labour to Western Europe and a location for low added value industries. Despite its rapid economic growth due to reindustrialisation and its success in attracting relatively large shares of immigrants, its native urban population continues to decrease. The developing manufacturing industry specialised in intensive, low-paid, manual labour automatically excludes more educated and qualified labourers who continue to resort to international migration in order to survive or to improve the quality of their lives.

The striving of cardiac surgeons for complete myocardial revascularization (MR) and the shortage of conduits resulted in the emergence of various options for sequential and composite coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), which necessitates unifying specification of its various surgical options for each patient and developing an approach to systematize CABG options. Objective: To develop a “surgical formula” for CABG and evaluate the results of its application for the taxonomy of direct MR options. Methods: Four hundred fifty-two internal mammary artery-aortocoronary bypass (IMA-ACB) using two and three shunts (conduits) were performed from January 2020 to December 2023 at A.O. Makhachev Center for Cardiology and Cardiovascular Surgery, Makhachkala, Dagestan. Off-pump surgeries were performed in 315 patients, while 137 patients underwent on-pump CABG. The MR index was 3.5. Every IMA-ACB option had specifications indicating the particular donor artery, graft, and recipient coronary artery (CA). A “surgical formula” comprising the above specifications was developed for every MR surgery option. Results: There was no in-hospital mortality among the patients enrolled in the study. According to intraoperative monitoring, the incidence of shunt dysfunction was 0.4%. Overall, 32 “surgical formulas” were developed for all types of operations performed in patients enrolled in this study. Conclusion: Introducing “surgical formulas” in the operation records at the cardiac surgery departments facilitates the systematization and classification of CABG options. Keywords: Coronary artery disease, coronary artery bypass grafting, sequential coronary artery bypass grafting, conduit.

A literature review on the intensive care of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (pARDS) was conducted. Information was collected by searching in ScienceDirect, PubMed, and eLibrary databases. Keywords such as "acute respiratory syndrome," "children," "intensive care," and "mechanical ventilation" were used as search terms. The review included full-text publication with statistical data analysis. Publications on the treatment of ARDS in adult patients were excluded. There are currently no proven pharmacological treatments for pARDS, and there is a lack of randomized clinical trials. Treatment mainly involves respiratory support, infusion therapy, sedation, administration of glucocorticoids (GCs), and enteral nutrition. If necessary, non-invasive ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure is performed as the initial respiratory support method. If it is ineffective and accompanied by evidence of increasing respiratory failure, tracheal intubation and artificial ventilation are utilized. No substantial evidence supports the use of GCs for this condition. Despite the high prevalence and mortality rates of pARDS, there is still a need to optimize intensive care algorithms and the quality of care for this condition based on more extensive randomized clinical trials. Keywords: Children, acute respiratory distress syndrome, intensive care, mechanical ventilation, glucocorticosteroids.

The study provides literature data on the impact of melatonin on blood pressure (BP) in elderly individuals with arterial hypertension (AH). AH is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and is a key focus of medical research. Melatonin, which plays a crucial role in the body's regulatory mechanisms, particularly when its production is disrupted, can significantly influence the development of AH. Melatonin is not a specific treatment for a particular disease but a multifunctional element that helps maintain homeostasis. Combining melatonin with antihypertensive therapy in elderly individuals with AH has been found to lead to more effective treatment outcomes. Exploring the effects of melatonin on BP levels in elderly individuals with AH is of great scientific interest, especially in understanding the relationship between individual melatonin secretion characteristics and predisposition to cardiovascular complications. This topic requires further research for a deeper understanding. Over 400 sources were analyzed on various aspects of the impact of melatonin on BP levels using materials from the PubMed and Google Scholar electronic databases. Out of these, 44 sources were selected and included in the study, considering relevant keywords. Keywords: Melatonin, blood pressure, arterial hypertension, cardiovascular disease, old age.
REASONS FOR UNSATISFACTORY TREATMENT RESULTS OF ACUTE PURULENT DESTRUCTIVE LUNG DISEASES IN PATIENTS WITH SARS-COV-2 INFECTION
Authors:   Department of General and Pediatric Surgery, Tashkent Medical Academy, Tashkent, Republic of Uzbekistan, OKHUNOV A.O.
Published: June 2024

Objective: To identify the reasons for unsatisfactory treatment results for acute purulent destructive lung diseases (APDLD) in patients with SARS-CoV-2. Methods: Sixty-five patients with APDLD on the background of SARS-CoV-2 infection were included in the study; 37 (57%) patients (Group 1) with APDLD were treated in a Tashkent Specialized Clinic for Infectious Diseases, and 28 (43%) patients with APDLD (Group 2) were hospitalized in the clinic of the General and Children’s Surgery Department of the Tashkent Medical Academy with a history of a recent SARS-CoV-2 infection. The patients were investigated using clinical, laboratory, and instrumental methods; the results were processed using statistical methods. Results: Complete recovery of patients was achieved in 16% of patients of Group 1 and 32% of Group 2 (p>0.05); clinical recovery was shown in 30% and 43% of patients in Groups 1 and 2 respectively (p>0.05). In Group 1 the results of treatment were more frequently disappointing than in Group 2 (54% vs. 25%, p=0.036), of which 19% were fatal in Group 1 and 11% in Group 2 (p>0.05). For the fatal outcome, the most dangerous was the early period after hospitalization. Morphological changes in the lungs of deceased patients included homogeneous fibrin deposits, which were combined with pronounced interstitial edema and capillary microthrombi around purulent foci. Conclusion: Traditional clinical and laboratory methods for assessing the severity of the condition of patients of both groups during and after SARSCoV-2 infection do not reflect the complete objective picture of the disease, as an accurate picture can only be obtained by applying the criteria for septic complications. Traditional treatment for APDLD is acceptable for patients of Group II. In patients of Group I with a severe, complicated, and progressive course, many methods of conventional therapy proved to be ineffective. Keywords: Acute purulent destructive diseases of the lungs, SARS-CoV-2, endothelial dysfunction of the lungs, treatment results, complications.

A retrospective analysis of a patient with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in renal allografts is presented, providing a comprehensive overview of the patient's medical history, the findings from various examinations, and the surgical interventions. The patient had end-stage renal disease due to nephrosclerosis following a kidney allotransplantation in 2008 and subsequently developed chronic allograft nephropathy. Upon examination, a tumor was discovered in the lower pole of the transplanted kidney. As a result of the end-stage renal transplant failure development, the patient underwent radical surgical treatment using advanced image-guided surgical techniques. This case is a compelling example of the critical importance of regular, thorough screenings for patients undergoing immunosuppressive therapy to identify any potential neoplastic processes promptly. Keywords: Kidney transplantation, kidney carcinoma, renal allograft embolization, transplant nephrectomy.
Na Esteira da Ilegalidade: Analise das Relaçoes Jurídicas nas Formas de Apropriação da Terra no Assenta Mento da Fazenda Reunida em Promissão
Authors: Miranda Maria Elena
Published: June 2024

O presente artigo trata de um Assentamento Rural na cidade de Promissão em São Paulo, constituído em 1986. A pesquisa procurou abordar os modos de apropriação das terras no assentamento como terra camponesa em suas múltiplas formas, as quais chamei de pluriapropriação. As condições de apropriação e transmissão da terra no assentamento se davam em desacordo com a normatização que rege os programas de assentamentos rurais no país, tornando os assentados “fora da lei”. São considerados ilegais o arrendamento de terra, o fracionamento do lote, o exercício de atividades assalariadas pelos titulares e a comercialização dos direitos de posse. O inquérito instaurado pelo Incra, transformado em processo administrativo, constatou que as transações de venda e transmissão de direitos no assentamento de Promissão, realizadas até 1998, eram irregulares. Algumas delas foram regularizadas, considerando que o perfil dos compradores atendia às exigências legais, mesmo que as transações não as tivessem atendidas. No entanto, a pesquisa demonstrou que as “vendas irregulares”, muitas vezes, atendiam as necessidades de reprodução social dos assentados, uma vez que os lotes comprados eram destinados aos filhos dos assentados que lá permaneciam.

Published: June 2024

The article is devoted to the analysis of consumer preferences and behavioral practices of urban residents in the catering market. The conceptual framework of the study was the theory of "third places" – spaces outside home and work that create conditions for full communication of visitors. The empirical basis of the study was the results of an online survey conducted among the residents of Ekaterinburg in 2024 (n=610). The study tested the hypothesis about the significance of the socio-communicative function of catering establishments in the perception of citizens. The results of the study showed the important role of catering establishments in the everyday life of urban residents: the behavioral practices of urban residents indicate the regularity of visits to catering establishments regardless of the day of the week, the preference for evening visiting time, more frequent use of actual visits compared to the use of ready meal delivery services. Consumer preferences of citizens in the catering market are characterized by a clearly expressed communicative dominance, confirming the importance of the social function of catering establishments. The most significant motive for visiting catering establishments is communicating with friends and relatives. The most popular venues are those that provide the best atmospheric and spatial opportunities for "live" communication. Among the factors for choosing catering establishments, the leading ones are the "internal" factors of the establishment – food quality, hygiene and safety, service, menu and variety of dishes, and the atmosphere created. External factors – reviews on the Internet, ratings of establishments on specialized sites, recommendations of food bloggers – do not have a decisive influence on the choice of consumers. The results of the study can be used to improve the quality of service in the catering industry and to develop an effective promotion strategy of enterprises in this sphere.
The Catholic Church in the USA and its attitude to the USSR (1933-1941): based on the materials of "Brief notes on the attitude of various Christian Churches to the moment" by Metropolitan Veniamin (Fedchenkov)
Authors: Ivanisov Kirill Mihailovich
Published: June 2024

The subject of the study is "Brief notes on the attitude of various Christian churches to the moment", compiled by Metropolitan of the Aleutians and North America, Exarch of the Russian Orthodox Church in North America Veniamin (Fedchenkov) on January 22, 1942. Analyzing their content, the author examines in detail the anti-Soviet activities of Catholics in the United States of America in 1933-1941, directed first against the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and the USSR, and then against the allocation of assistance to the Soviet Union to fight the Nazi invaders. The mentioned document has not yet been put into scientific circulation, although many of the thoughts and considerations of the mentioned church hierarch were used by the government of the USSR to develop its foreign policy course. The methodological basis of this work includes the principles of historicism, consistency and objectivity. The analysis of the "Brief Notes..." by Metropolitan Veniamin (Fedchenkov) in comparison with a wide range of other sources allowed us to build a logical chain of relations between the USSR and the USA in 1933-1941, in which the anti-Soviet activities of the Roman Catholic Church in the USA played a negative role. The study of the "Brief Notes..." by Metropolitan Veniamin (Fedchenkov) made it possible to assess not only the seriousness of the influence of the Catholic Church on the foreign policy of the United States of America and other European countries in 1933-1941 and to better understand the nature of the events that took place after the end of World War II, but also to comprehend the role of the Catholic Church in the political processes taking place in Ukraine today. In the "Brief Notes...", completed by 1942, Metropolitan Veniamin pointed out the religious origins of Ukrainian nationalism, the narratives of which have not changed since the time of the events under consideration. The Patriarchal exarch gave a surprisingly accurate description of the various movements of the Catholic Church in the United States, which, oddly enough, does not lose its relevance in current realities.

Authors: Netam Ritesh Kumar
Published: June 2024

Objectives:

This study aimed to compare the effects of high-fat diet-induced neuroinflammation and oxidative stress in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) of obese-prone and obese-resistant rats.

Materials and Methods:

Rats were divided into obese-prone and obese-resistant groups based on their initial body weight. They were then fed either a 5% or 60% fat-containing diet. In the ARC, the expression of inflammatory markers [Interleukin (IL-6); Nuclear Factor Kappa-B Inhibitor Alpha (NFKBIA); Cluster of Differentiation (CD)-66; and mucin-like hormone receptor-like 1 (EMR-1)], as well as levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant enzymes (glutathione and glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase), was assessed along with body weight, blood glucose, Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance, plasma insulin and plasma leptin levels after ten days of intervention.

Results:

The results showed a significantly higher expression of inflammatory markers in the ARC of high-fat diet-induced obese rats after ten days. Body weight, plasma insulin, plasma leptin and hydrogen peroxide production were also significantly higher in obese-prone rats fed a high-fat diet.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, this study demonstrates that short-term consumption of a high-fat diet can lead to hypothalamic inflammation and ROS production in the ARC of rats. Obese-prone rats exhibited hyperinsulinaemia and hyperleptinaemia after short-term high-fat diet consumption.

Purpose: In the Agriculture industry, tortoises may not have a great commercial value compared with chicken and hoofed mammals; nevertheless, they have a substantial economic value for food, medicine, and ecological services. The empirical work was conducted at the Departmental Research Center (DRC), to investigate the impact of growth phases on body weight (BW) and morphometrics of different age groups.
Design/ Methodology/ Approach: Eighty freshwater tortoises of 4 age groups (20 hatchlings, 20 juveniles, 20 sub-adults and 20 adults) were obtained from the Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife in Nigeria. A deep litter housing system was used for the present study. Tortoises were fed with cooked meat, concentrate, fermented cassava, and palm fruits.
Findings: The mean BW ranged from 41.00g - 848.00g. The result revealed that the mean BW of the tortoise value (503g). The Coefficient of Variance (CV) of morphometrics ranged from 9.73% - 15.63%. The straight carapace length (SCL) had a higher CV value (15.63%), followed by plastron length (PL) (12.90%) and least value (9.73%) for carapace width (CW). There was huge difference in all the morphometric except SCL and CW for sub-adult and adults’ tortoises. The result revealed that SCL, CW, PL and plastron width (PW) had distinct differences from BW. The correlation coefficient of BW and morphometric of juvenile growth phase (JGP) and sub-adult phase (SAGP) ranged from (0.326 – 0.964) and (0.275 – 0.953) respectively.
Research Limitation/Implications: This research focused on the availability and sustainability of freshwater tortoises in Nigeria.
Practical Implication: This paper has potential implications for understanding the management and improvement of the freshwater tortoise in Nigeria.
Social Implication: This study will enhance the availability and development of freshwater tortoise for policy-makers in addressing sustainable food security through social, economic and environmental stability for the present and future generations.
Originality/Value: This study is based on the data collected on body weight and morphometric traits during growth phases.

The effects of coating and thawing conditions on the colour change (lightness, chroma and
hue), total soluble solids (TSS), pH, ascorbic acid (AA) content, total titratable acidity
(TTA) content and texture of frozen jackfruit bulbs (Artocarpus heterophyllus var. J33) by
direct freezing were investigated. Individual bulb of ripe jackfruit was pre-treated with T1:
without coating (Control), T2: 16°Bx sugar and T3: 2°Bx salt solution. Direct freezing
was performed at -20°C for all samples and stored for one week. Thawing conditions at
both room temperature (25±2°C) and chilled (2±1°C) were done at 0, 1/2, 1, 2 and 4 hrs
on the quality of frozen jackfruit bulbs. Both thawing conditions did not affect TSS, pH,
AA content and TTA content except for texture. Control (T1) had a higher texture when
compared to coated samples (T2 and T3). Thawing in the ambient temperature had a
lower hue angle than the chilled condition. The significant changes in pulp firmness were
observed after 2 hrs of thawing (p<0.05) at both room temperature and chilled conditions.
Fruit thawed in chilled condition had a firmer texture than ambient condition even after 4
hrs. It is recommended for the fruits to be consumed within 1 hr after thawing in the
ambient condition. This study demonstrated that coating pre-treatment does not help to
improve the taste and texture of frozen jackfruit bulbs by direct freezing.

Starch-based films have poor mechanical strength and high-water vapour permeability.
This research aimed to develop biopolymeric films that contain wheat starch, glycerine,
reinforcing agent, and cellulose microfibres (CMR) at 0.5 and 1 wt.%, through a casting
technique. The CMR was derived from chemically treated banana midrib residues (Musa
Saba' sp.). The effect of CMR filler on structural, mechanical and barrier properties was
studied. The results show that the incorporation of CMR into the starch-based films has
improved the fragility of films. The increased concentration of CMR has contributed to an
improvement in film thickness (3.5–7.6%), tensile strength (8.1–55.4%), Young’s
modulus (4.2–32.5%), and vapour barrier permeability (12–17.5%). The good
compatibility and homogenous dispersion of CMR fillers were corroborated using FESEM
(EDX). In conclusion, CMR fillers have improved the properties of starch-based films and
potential to be used as reinforcing elements in various polymer composites.
Housing The Future
Authors:   , Robertson Grace
Published: June 2024

The housing crisis in Aotearoa New Zealand, has been caused by a range of factors, including an increase in population and the use of housing as an investment asset. In response, the government has implemented several housing policy changes over the past ten years, with many aiming to allow intensification. While these policy changes have seen many new higher-density developments built, these often fail to consider the needs of children and families. In particular, many new housing developments lack adequate play spaces, outdoor spaces, and larger units. This research aims to explore how housing can be more suited to families with children, providing an alternative to existing intensification models. A selected site in Taita, Lower Hutt is the focus of this research, as Taita is a densifying suburb with a large demographic of families and children. Information from literature, case studies, fieldwork, site analysis, and design experimentation has been used. An iterative design process was conducted based on the collected data. These results and design ideas can be applied in other intensifying areas in Aotearoa New Zealand, enabling a wider demographic to have their needs met in higher-density housing.

Çalışmada önce 19. yüzyılda Farsçanın ve klasik Farsça şiirin modern bir kavrayışla yeniden tanımlandığı kültürel atmosfer tasvir ediliyor. Ardından, Avrupa ile karşılaşan ilk İran aydınlarının, eğitimi yaygınlaştırmak için 1863-1869 yılları arasında İstanbul merkezli yürüttükleri alfabeyi değiştirme mücadelesi inceleniyor. Oradan İran Meşrutiyet’ine geçilerek dönemin en etkili gazetesi Sur-i İsrâfil’de (1907-1909) modern İran şiirinin ve ulus söyleminin ortaya çıkışı Avrupa ve yeni Osmanlı-Türk edebiyatının etkisi bağlamında tartışılıyor. Devamında 1920’de İran ulus-devletine fikri zemin sağlamış Kâve dergisinde çıkan, Avrupa ile Osmanlı-Türk etkisini reddederek Farsçayı ve Farsça edebiyatı ulusal sınırlarına çağıran makaleler serisi inceleniyor. Son olarak Osmanlı-Türk ulusçuluğundan ayrılan yönü itibariyle İran ulusçuluğunun ana kaynağına ve özgün karakterine dair nihai görüşe yer veriliyor.

Yapılan bu araştırma durum çalışmasına göre yürütülmüştür. Alanda aktif görev alan sınıf öğretmenleriyle görüşmeler yapılmış ve ÖBA platformu incelenmiştir. Elde edilen veriler içerik analizine göre çözümlenmiştir. Bu araştırma sonucunda sınıf öğretmenlerinin ÖBA platformuna olumlu yaklaşım içinde oldukları belirlenmiştir. ÖBA platformunun tasarımı kullanışlı, işlevsel ve ergonomiktir. Görüşme yapılan sınıf öğretmenleri ÖBA’daki hazırlanan eğitimlerin yetersiz ve sınırlı olduğunu belirtmişlerdir. Sınıf öğretmenliği branşı temelli hizmet içi eğitimin sayısal olarak az olması ve eğitim çeşitliliğinin sınırlı olmasıdır. ÖBA platformunda 168 eğitimin olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bu eğitimlerin 6’sı sınıf öğretmenliği alan bilgisi, 35’i eğitim bilimleri, 67’si genel kültür, 35’i diğer branşlar ve 25’i ise diğer eğitimler ile ilgilidir. ÖBA platformundaki sınıf öğretmenliği alan eğitimleri yazma eğitimi, matematik eğitimi ve İngilizce eğitimi ile ilgilidir. Eğitim bilimleri teması altında toplanan eğitim içerikleri ise; rehberlik, ölçeme ve değerlendirme, yönetimsel beceriler, oyun terapisi, öğretim becerilerinin geliştirilmesi, taslak ders kitabı inceleme ve değerlendirme, uzman öğretmenlik ve başöğretmenlik semineri, gelişim ve öğrenme ve kapsayıcı eğitimdir. ÖBA’nın esnek yapısı, hizmet içi eğitimlerin maliyetlerini azaltması ve geliştirilebilir bir platform olması nedeniyle hizmet içi eğitimlerin daha kolay ve etkili yapılmasını sağlayabileceği söylenebilir.
Nasreddin Hoca fıkralarının İngilizce çevirilerinde kültürel öğelerin aktarımı
Authors: Öztürk Kasar Sündüz , Yaman Burcu
Published: June 2024

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Nasreddin Hoca fıkralarının
Türkçeden İngilizceye çevirilerindeki kültürel öğelerin aktarımlarındaki
kültürel farklılıkları çeviri örnekleriyle sunmak ve çevirilerindeki zorlukları
saptamaktır. Nasreddin Hoca fıkraları içeriğinde alt metinleri barındıran ve
Anadolu kültürünün gelecek kuşaklara aktarımını sağlayan folklorik metinlerdir.
Dolayısıyla bu metinlerin çevirilerinin bir kültür aktarımı olarak
değerlendirilmesi ve kültürel öğelerle sembollerin yeterli kültürel ve tarihi
bilgi edinilerek dikkatli ve özenli bir şekilde çevrilmesi gerekmektedir.
Nasreddin Hoca fıkralarının çevirilerinden seçilen örneklerin değerlendirildiği
çalışmada, çeviri eylemini kültür boyutunda ele alan Yuri Lotman’ın semiyosfer,
sembol, bakışımsızlık ve kültürel bellek kavramları temel alınmıştır.  Öncelikle, mizah kavramıyla birlikte Lotman
kavramlarının Nasreddin Hoca fıkralarıyla ilişkisi kurulmuş, sonrasında fıkra
örneklerindeki kültürel öğelerin aktarımında tespit edilen zorluklar örnekler
üzerinde tartışılmış ve Lotman’ın kavramlarıyla değerlendirmesi yapılmıştır.
Değerlendirme sonucunda kimi çevirmenlerin, karşılığı bulunmayan kültürel
öğelerin çevirilerinden kaçındığı, kimilerinin bu öğeleri yeterli açıklama ve
bilgi sunmadan kaynak dilde olduğu gibi bıraktığı, kimilerinin ise hedef
kültürde var olan benzer kavramlarla karşıladığı saptanmıştır. Bu bağlamda,
çeviri eyleminden önce yapılacak olan göstergebilimsel çözümleme ve
yorumlamaların kültürel öğelerin aktarımında çevirmene yardımcı olabileceği ve
çevirinin kültürlerarası iletişim işlevine katkı sağlayabileceği
düşünülmektedir.
Osman Kılıç’ın “Kader Kurbanı” Bulgaristan’da
Authors: Karasu Abidin
Published: June 2024

Bulgar parlamentosu, Ocak 2012’de kabul ettiği bildiriyle “etnik arındırma” olarak ilan ettiği ve İkinci Dünya Savaşı’ndan sonra Avrupa’nın en büyük zorunlu göçünün gerçekleştiği 1989 yılında basılan Osman Kılıç’ın anıları, Bulgaristan Türklerinin bir nevi ansiklopedisi niteliğini taşımaktadır. Bu eser, günümüz Bulgaristan coğrafyasında 1877-1878 Osmanlı-Rus Savaşıyla başlayan ve 100 yıldan uzun süren bir dönemde, Bulgaristan’da azınlık olarak yaşayan Türklerin kültürü, eğitimi, gelenek ve göreneklerinin yanı sıra çektikleri acıları da içeren birinci elden bir kaynaktır. Yazar, sosyalist öncesi ve sonrası dönemde Bulgaristan’da yaşayan Türklere yönelik devlet baskıları, yok etme planları ve buna karşı verilen mücadeleyi çok inandırıcı ama aynı zamanda duygusal ve etkileyici bir dille kaleme almıştır. Bulgaristan Türklerinin geçmişi ve tarihi konusunda yazılmış çok az sayıda kitap vardır. Bu nedenle “Kader Kurbanı” Bulgaristan ile ilgili yapılacak her bilimsel araştırmanın başvuracağı ilk kaynaklardandır. Fakat Bulgaristan’da yaşayan Türk ve Müslüman toplulukları açısından Osman Kılıç’ın Bulgarcaya çevrilmiş anıları , daha da büyük önem taşımaktadır.

The high cost of manual irrigation in dry land vegetable farming is a serious problem in dry land farming which is always faced by farming households every year. Therefore, innovation in drip irrigation technology with an automatic gravity control system using plastic waste is very necessary for irrigation of dray land vegetables farms. This research aims to analyze and find the level of savings in irrigation water use, cost efficiency and profitability of drip irrigation technology. It was a the short to medium-term Action research method starting at the beginning of the dry season. The research approach applied is participatory action research, namely action research by applying a rural community participatory approach. The results showed that innovative drip irrigation technology was able to save water and casual labors. Drip irrigation technology is very profitable, financially and economically feasible to develop in dry land vegetable farming. However, there is concern that there is a tendency for this technology to be difficult to implement in rural areas of Rural Salut because of the relatively expensive materials and equipment for drip irrigation. Therefore, irrigation equipment can be adjusted or adapted to overcome the high cost by replacing some components with cheaper and more readily available materials. The water requirement for chili cultivation in one growing season is around 22,000 liters per 500 m2 at the cost of IDR 150,000. Meanwhile, by manual method (surface flow), namely by draining water from drilled wells to the planting area of ​​75,000 liters per 500 m2 with a monastery of IDR 400,000. It proves that the drip irrigation technology can save water and energy consumption. The chili farming calculations show that the financial turnover obtained from chili cultivation using drip irrigation technology was IDR 5,525,000 per 500 M2, while that obtained by local farmers was IDR 3,365,000.00 per 500 M2.

Salah satu fase yang menentukan keberhasilan budidaya ikan adalah fase penetasan telur. Produksi larva tawes dengan kualitas yang baik dapat terjadi apabila daya tetas telur tinggi dan kualitas telur yang dihasilkan baik. Daya tetas telur tergolong rendah hanya sebesar 22% dan hanya mampu menghasilkan kurang lebih 10.000 benih, hal ini menjadi permasalahan penting dalam proses pemijahan ikan tawes di Indonesia. Sebagai upaya peningkatan derajat penetasan telur ikan tawes yaitu dengan perlakuan rasio indukan jantan dan betina yang berbeda pada setiap wadah penetasan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh perbandingan jumlah indukan jantan dan betina terhadap produksi benih ikan tawes dan mengetahui berapa banyak benih yang dihasilkan dengan perbandingan indukan jantan dan betina ikan tawes. Penelitan dilakukan selama satu bulan dengan metode eksperimental design. Parameter yang diamati berupa derajat penetasan telur dan pengukuran kualitas air kemudian data yang diperoleh dianalisis dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) menggunakan software SPSS 24 for windows. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rasio indukan jantan dan betina berpengaruh terhadap produksi benih ikan tawes (Barbonymus gonionotus) dimana produksi benih terbanyak diperoleh pada rasio indukan Jantan 2 : 1 Betina.
