Published: May 2023

Karies yang tidak dirawat dapat menyebabkan infeksi pulpa. Perawatan infeksi ini adalah perawatan saluran akar. Kegagalan perawatan ini bisa terjadi karena infeksi yang persisten oleh E. faecalis. Pemberian medikamen intrakanal merupakan upaya untuk menghilangkan persistensi mikroorganisme dalam saluran akar. Pasta Ca(OH)2 merupakan obat yang umum digunakan. Sediaan baru pasta Ca(OH)2 dibuat untuk meningkatkan efek antibakteri. Uji sitotoksisitas dilakukan untuk menilai sifat toksik sediaan baru ini sebelum menjadi produk jadi. Sel fibroblas jaringan gingiva dikultur dan diberi ekstrak sediaan baru pasta Ca(OH)2 dan Calcipex. Percobaan dilakukan dalam tiga pengulangan dan viabilitas sel dievaluasi dengan uji MTT. Analisis statistik dilakukan dengan uji One-way ANOVA. Hasil: Perbandingan viabilitas sel pada sediaan baru pasta Ca(OH)2 dan Calcipex menunjukkan bahwa sel yang diberi sediaan baru pasta Ca(OH)2 lebih banyak yang hidup jika dibandingkan dengan Calcipex (p0,05). Kelompok sediaan 1g Ca(OH)2 merupakan kelompok yang memiliki efek toksisitas paling ringan.
“Jroning Salah”, Realitas Sosial Politik: Sebuah Proses Kreatif Karawitan yang berpijak pada Salah Gumun
Authors: Subowo Yohanes , Wahyudi Aris
Published: May 2023

ABSTRACT“Jroning Salah”, A Socio-Political Reality: A Karawitan Creative Process based on Salah Gumun. “Jroning Salah” is a karawitan work that tells a social phenomenon based on one of Gender Barung, Indonesian traditional musical instrument, whose patterns called “salah gumun” become the basis of this artwork. This work is a new genre in karawitan projecting three “wrong” phenomena in Javanese: “Salah Gumun”, “Salah Kaprah”, and “Salah Kedadèn”. Therefore, the work is entitled “Jroning Salah”. The authors used acoustic approach whose point of view emphasizes combining two or more tones to express all ideas into karawitan compositions. The presence of dance in this karawitan composition is not a collaboration, but a strengthening of the presentation. Its function is to give tone pressure on certain instruments. Furthermore, the authors also implemented experimental method to avoid regulatory absoluteness for the sake of imagination development— an exploration process to find particular voices as alternatives that are relatively capable of representing ideas. Following the phenomenon of “wrong” as the source of the idea for this work, “Jroning Salah” was constructed in three repertoires entitled “Salah Gumun”, “Salah Kaprah”, and “Salah Kedadèn”. The presentation process was conducted sequentially and continuously, each of which was an expression of a situation in each story line.ABSTRAK“Jroning salah” adalah karya karawitan yang menceritakan salah satu fenomena sosial yang didasarkan pada salah satu pola tabuhan gender, yaitu “salah gumun”. Karya ini merupakan genre baru dalam karawitan untuk mempresentasikan tiga fenomena “salah”, yaitu salah kaprah, salah gumun, dan salah kedaden. Oleh karena itu, karya ini diberi judul “Jroning Salah”. Sudut pandang pendekatan akustik yang menekankan pada perpaduan dua nada atau lebih untuk mengungkapkan semua gagasan ke dalam komposisi karawitan. Kehadiran tarian dalam komposisi karawitan ini bukan sebagai kolaborasi, melainkan hanya sebagai penguatan presentasi. Fungsinya untuk memberi tekanan nada pada instrumen tertentu. Metode eksperimen digunakan untuk menghindari kemutlakan regulasi agar mampu mengembangkan imajinasi. Eksplorasi untuk menemukan suara tertentu sebagai suara alternatif yang relatif mampu merepresentasikan ide. Sesuai dengan fenomena salah sebagai sumber ide karya ini, maka “Jroning Salah” ini dibangun menjadi tiga repertoar, yaitu “Salah Gumun”, “Salah Kaprah”, dan “Salah Kedadèn”. Proses penyajiannya dibuat secara berurutan dan berkesinambungan, yang masing-masing merupakan ekspresi situasi fase cerita.
Sociologiska kritikbegrepp för utbildningsvetenskapen
Authors: Berglund Leo
Published: May 2023

Critique plays an important role within the educational field; yet it seems to function within a framework that is considerably limited by the presuppositions of its objects. Studying the debate on critique that takes place within the sociological field makes it possible to understand the forms and roles critique can take, and how to handle its immanent contradictions. It is argued that while social science can make way for critique by using totalizing theories, actors can be critical by referring to lived experience. But the latter form of critique risks to be neutralized by institutional instances of expertise. The theoretical framework presented is illustrated by an analysis of how two educations in pedagogy on an advanced level interpret their cause to equip their students with an ability to think critically. The comparison shows that one education tends to focus on expertise, and the other one is critical in a more reflexive manner. The article is concluded with a reflection on the need for a radical critique within the educational field.

Indirect Communication as a Language-Game: Kierkegaard Through a Late-Wittgensteinian Lens
Authors: Blagojević Bojan
Published: May 2023

Kierkegaard’s influence on Wittgenstein is widely recognized, but is most commonly treated in terms of (shared or opposed) views on religion, philosophy, ethics or nonsense. This paper will attempt to interpret Kierkegaard’s writing strategy known as ‘indirect communication’ in terms not of the Tractatus, but of Philosophical Investigations, namely as a language-game of sorts. We will attempt to show the deficiencies of Cavell’s and Conant’s interpretations and, by placing the concept of such communication in context, referring it to similar concepts, such as Socratic irony, we will aim to sketch its grammar and its relation to the ‘ordinary’ direct communication. Further, we will argue that indirect communication, pertaining to Kierkegaard’s concept of subjective truth, avoids the charge of being a private language.
The Influence of Wittgenstein’s Philosophy of Language on the Textual Production of the Vienna Group
Authors: Bešlagić Luka
Published: May 2023

The entirety of Wittgenstein’s problematization of language was of particular importance for numerous Austrian postwar artists and art movements, but was possibly most evident in the poetics and heterogeneous practices of the Vienna Group. Analysis of selected texts of the latter neo-avantgarde movement – namely, Konrad Bayer’s the philosopher’s stone1 (1963) and Oswald Wiener’s the improvement of central europe, novel (1969) – unveils the direct influence of both of the early and late Wittgenstein, paradigmatically represented by his two major books: Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (1921) and Philosophical Investigations (1953). Texts of the Vienna Group to which this article refers to are not interpreted as literary works, but rather as diverse examples of textual production; instead of being analyzed as aesthetic objects, these texts are examined as platforms of potential inscription of Wittgensteinian critique of language.
Modernism, Tehatricality, and Scepticism: Michael Fried and Cavell’s Conception of the Ordinary Language Philosophy
Authors: Dedić Nikola
Published: May 2023

The paper treats the relationship between the art historian Michael Fried and the philosopher Stanley Cavell, as well as their readings of Wittgenstein’s late philosophy. It argues that Fried’s entire historic-artistic method rests on Wittgensteinian grounds; there is special emphasis on theses concerning the grammatical criteria of language and scepticism. Namely, Fried, like Cavell, interprets modernism as a crisis of a priori criteria by which we come to think a given object as a successful work of art. Fried labels an artwork’s failure to convince, to communicate with the recipient, with the term theatre. This text establishes an analogy between Fried’s concept of theatre, Cavell’s concept of scepticism, and Wittgenstein’s thesis of the impossibility of a private language, situating those theses in the wider context of discussions of modernism.
How does industrial agglomeration affect firm performance of Chinese high and new technology industry?
Authors: Shu Qianfei
Published: May 2023

Many researches have discussed the relationship between industrial agglomeration and firm performance. However, the relationship between policy-directed industrial agglomeration in the context of Chinese high and new technology (HNT) industry remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the correlation between industrial agglomeration and China's HNT firm performance by using the two-stage least squares (2SLS) and the system generalized methods of moments (GMM) approaches on account of the panel data of HNT industries in China during 1998-2015. The estimation results revealed that industrial agglomeration has a positive impact on HNT firm performance, including productivity and sales growth. To be specific, by taking advantage of agglomeration effect, foreign-owned firms have demonstrated excellent performance in both labor productivity and sales growth. In contrast, private-owned firms have not performed well in terms of productivity, but have shown sound performance in term of sales growth. Unfortunately, state-owned firms do not benefit from the industrial agglomeration. Moreover, large firms perform better in respect of labor productivity, while small firms experience higher sales growth.
Ideological and political evolution of the Independent Social Democratic Party of Germany in 1920-1922
Authors: Lysenko Maksim
Published: May 2023

In this article, the subject of research is the internal ideological and political evolution of the Independent Social Democratic Party of Germany in the last years of its existence (1920-1922) to change the orientation of the party. The main emphasis is not on the organizational incapacity of the party, as was customary in historiography, but on the process of ideological shifts. This approach made it possible to identify the ideological crisis in the USPD in the conditions of the instability of the political system of the Weimar Republic, which turned out to be one of the most significant factors in the disappearance of the party. For historians who look to the experience of the Weimar Republic, the labor movement has always faced a choice between communism and social democracy, while the independents have, at best, the fate of an ill-fated utopian attempt at a "third way" in the post-war labor movement in Germany. The attention of scholars involved in the history of the USPD was mainly focused on the initial period of the party's existence from 1917 to 1920, namely on the reasons for the party's separation from the SPD in 1917 and the split in 1920, when most of the independents went to the KPD. The period from 1920 to 1922 was given a place where the “survival” of the USPD to the merger with the SPD was considered in an overview form, and there are no separate works devoted to this period of time at all.
Consular Reports as a Source of Information for Periodicals of the Ministry of Finance of Russia at the Beginning of the Twentieth Century
Authors: Kostrikov Stanislav Sergeevich , Kostrikov Sergei Petrovich
Published: May 2023

The author examines the reports of Russian consular services located in different countries, which served as important sources of various commercial and political information for periodicals issued by the Ministry of Finance of Imperial Russia at the beginning of the twentieth century. The subject of the study is the information policy of one of the leading government departments, which was one of the first to deploy a wide correspondent network around the world in order to obtain information about the most important events in the world economy and politics, analyze them and bring them to the main consumer – the domestic business class, who was extremely interested in promptly obtaining this information. The scientific novelty of the publication lies in the fact that the reports of the Russian consuls, revealed during the analysis of archival documents containing correspondence between the Trade Department of the Ministry of Finance and the Editorial Office of the time-based publications of this ministry, have not yet been reflected in the scientific literature. Meanwhile, market, industrial, stock exchange, banking, socio-political information, which regularly appeared in the "Bulletin of Finance, Industry and Trade" and the daily "Trade and Industrial Newspaper", played an important role for the orientation of business circles not only in the processes on world markets, but also for the political development of the domestic bourgeoisie, understanding its role in the socio-economic and political life of Russia during the period under review. And the correspondent network of these publications, the use of technological innovations became the basis for the creation of first a Trade and Telegraph Agency under the Ministry of Finance, and then a government agency.The St. Petersburg Telegraph Agency, which initiated the formation of the state information policy.
Mythopoetic Images of Irish Mythology in American Fantasy (the Case of Roger Zelazny's "Chronicles of Amber" - Corwin Cycle)
Authors: Anisimova Olga Vladimirovna , Makarova Inna
Published: May 2023

The article is devoted to the study of key images of Irish mythology, widely used in fantasy literature, in particular, in American novels written in the second half of XX-th century. The paper considers the images of ship, tree and raven. Special attention is paid to their artistic interpretation in the novels of a famous American science fiction writer, the representative of New Wave - Roger Zelazny. The paper examines the etymology of these images, their origins in Sumero-Akkadian, Jewish and Greek mythologies, their main symbolic meanings and further interpretation in Zelazny's key novel - "The Chronicles of Amber". As a result, the complex characteristics of the three images both in the ancient mythologies and in the context of first five parts of the novel by the American science fiction writer, namely in the Corwin Cycle, have been provided. The findings achieved show that ship turns out to be connected with the key image of the novel - the Pattern, among other things symbolizing the process of initiation of the main characters. The tree, in its turn, acts as the primary basis of the Amber universe, its multilevel structure. Finally, the raven, the alter ego of the main character - Prince Corwin - stands for his destiny, filled with contradictions and relentless battles.
Occasional complex words in the journalism of V. Nabokov
Authors: Knyazeva Natal'ya Vladimirovna
Published: May 2023

The object of the study is the individual author's complex lexemes of V. Nabokov. The source of the language material is the author's journalistic works, which, due to the specifics of the genre, contain a large number of occasional formations of various kinds, including word-formation derivatives. Composite words are considered as a manifestation of the phenomenon of language play in the author's text, on the one hand, and as the implementation of V. Nabokov's "game style" in journalistic texts, on the other. A wide range of philological research methods were used for the objective analysis of occasionalisms: semantic-stylistic, component and contextual analysis, and an intertextual approach was also implemented as meeting the content parameters of V. Nabokov's texts as a whole.   The novelty of the study lies in the fact that for the first time occasional composite words were analyzed in the framework of a multidimensional approach based on the material of V. Nabokov's journalism. As a result of the analysis, conclusions of general and particular order were drawn, namely: - the author's journalism of V. Nabokov is characterized by a deep game stylistics of texts, which is expressed, among other things, with the help of word-making; - the use of occasionalisms in journalistic texts makes it possible to actualize the author's meanings, give capacious, figurative characteristics, at the same time reflect the position of the author; - occasional composites as a result of word composition are distinguished by linguistic compression and at the same time a great semantic saturation, including connotative meanings; - in V. Nabokov's journalism, the comic often becomes ironic, even sarcastic, going beyond the comic is determined by the specifics of the style: relevance, sharpness of the subject, emphasized by the freedom of the author's self-expression; - from a semantic point of view, V. Nabokov's occasional composites have a high degree of generality, often created by the author for the nomination of typical phenomena of reality, including typical images, characters.
Fibroadenoma vulva: Experience based on FNA of vulvar lesion
Authors: Aden Durre , Saini Anuradha , Singh Mukul , Zaheer Sufian
Published: May 2023

Vulval fibroadenoma is an extremely rare lesion, mostly seen in young adults. A 51-years-old woman presented with a painless, mobile, and pedunculated vulval mass. Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) was performed and was diagnosed as a benign fibroepithelial lesion possibly fibroadenoma vulva, which was later confirmed as fibroadenoma vulva histopathologically. It is just not rare to find fibroadenoma vulva, but this should also be kept as a differential when diagnosing such cytomorphology in FNA lesions. This is important to avoid unnecessary incisional biopsy before excision.
Intra-and peritumoral hemorrhage in the meningioma of a nonagenarian due to administration of direct oral anticoagulants after mechanical thrombectomy
Authors: Miyashita Katsuyoshi , Nambu Kosuke , Kinami Shio , Nogami Kenshu , Nambu Iku , Tohma Yasuo
Published: May 2023

Background:

Spontaneous intratumoral hemorrhage of meningiomas is rare, and their incidence due to anticoagulants is unclear. The incidence of both meningioma and cardioembolic stroke increases with age. We report the very elderly case of intra- and peritumoral hemorrhage in frontal meningioma induced by direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) following mechanical thrombectomy, in whom, surgical resection was required 10 years after the tumor was first indicated.

Case Description:

A 94-year-old woman with independence in daily living who suffered sudden consciousness disturbance, total aphasia, and right hemiparesis was admitted to our hospital. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an acute cerebral infarction and left middle cerebral artery occlusion. There was also a left frontal meningioma with peritumoral edema, which was discovered 10 years prior, and the size and edema had remarkably increased. The patient underwent urgent mechanical thrombectomy, and recanalization was achieved. Administration of DOAC was initiated for the atrial fibrillation. Computed tomography (CT) revealed an asymptomatic intratumoral hemorrhage at postoperative day 26. The patient’s symptoms gradually improved; however, she suffered sudden disturbance of consciousness and right hemiparesis on postoperative day 48. CT revealed intra- and peritumoral hemorrhages with compression of the surrounding brain. Therefore, we decided to perform tumor resection instead of conservative treatment. The patient underwent surgical resection, and the postoperative course was uneventful. It was diagnosed with transitional meningioma with no malignant features. The patient was transferred to another hospital for rehabilitation.

Conclusion:

Peritumoral edema representing a pial blood supply might be a significant factor associated with intracranial hemorrhage due to DOAC administration in patients with meningioma. The evaluation of hemorrhagic risk due to DOACs is important not only for meningioma but also for other brain tumor cases.
Silk + flow-diverter stent for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms associated with balloon angioplasty: A retrospective study
Authors: Filho José Alberto Almeida , Oberman Dan Zimelewicz , Freitas Diogo Gonçalves , Costa Rodrigo Azeredo , Brandão Thiago Dantas S. , Junior Orlando Teixeira Maia
Published: May 2023

Background:

The silk + flow-diverter stent is increasingly used to treat complex intracranial aneurysms including wide-neck and fusiform aneurysms. Balloon angioplasty has been used to better appose the flow diverter (FD) to the vessel wall and, thus, improve aneurysm occlusion rates and decrease periprocedural complications. Sparse data are available concerning the results of this technique. We report our experience with silk + FD associated with balloon angioplasty for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms.

Methods:

A retrospective study was conducted on all patients treated by the silk + FD. Clinical charts, procedural data, and angiographic results were reviewed and compared between those treated with balloon angioplasty. A multivariate analysis was conducted to identify predictors of complications, occlusion, and outcome.

Results:

Between July 2014 and May 2016, we identified 209 patients with 223 intracranial aneurysms. There were 176 (84.2%) women and 33 (15.8%) men. The most common stent size used was 4.5 mm in 101 patients (46.1%), followed by 4 mm in 57 patients (26%). Univariate analysis observed that stent diameter was significantly related to aneurysm occlusion (P < 0.05). Patients with more than 1 aneurysm treated with silk + stent have a 9.07 times greater chance of having complications in the procedure than patients with only 01 aneurysm (OR = 9.07; P = 0.0008). Patients who had angioplasty without the use of a balloon have a 13.69-times-higher risk of complications (OR = 13.69; P = 0.0003). Older age, larger aneurysms, and the use of more than 1 FD device were predictors of recanalization.

Conclusion:

Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms with the silk + FD associated with balloon angioplasty is a safe and effective therapeutic option. Balloon angioplasty in combination with FD lowers the risk of complications. Higher complication rates and worse outcomes are associated with older age and large aneurysms.

Authors: Darji Deepali , Perse Jeremy , Arnold Yi
Published: May 2023

Introduction. Pretibial lacerations resulting from trauma may evolve into chronic wounds with worsening infections without treatment. There is a limited amount of literature on the presentation and treatment of recalcitrant pretibial ulcerations. Objective. This study aims to provide a review of surgical treatment methodology that successfully managed recalcitrant pretibial ulcerations. Materials and Methods. The authors conducted a retrospective case review of patients with pretibial ulcerations. All wounds underwent aggressive debridement in the operative setting. Next, the wounds were fenestrated with a needle before placing one application of an antimicrobial acellular dermal tissue matrix derived from fetal bovine dermis, which was tightly adhered onto the wound bed. All wounds received a uniform multilayer compression dressing. Results. Three patients with pretibial ulcerations were included in this study. Each wound was a result of mechanical trauma and deteriorated into a refractory ulceration despite initial conservative treatment for more than 6 months. All ulcers exhibited local infection of cellulitis, hematoma, and a collection of purulent fluid. None of the wounds had any signs of radiographic osteomyelitis. The application of the allograft following debridement and fenestration led to wound volume reduction by 75%, 66.7%, and 50% in 3 patients in 28 days. All wounds healed successfully within 4 months. Conclusions. The combination of a fenestration method and an antimicrobial fetal bovine dermal matrix successfully healed recalcitrant pretibial ulcerations in high-risk patients.

Authors: Snyder Robert , Driver Vickie , Cole Windy , Joseph Warren , Reyzelman Alez , Lantis II John , Kaufman Jarrod , Wild Thomas
Published: May 2023

The etiology of acute and chronic wounds goes beyond those often reported in the literature, including those with exposed structures, those in which the entire wound bed cannot be visualized, and patients who are not candidates for typical standard of care. Treatment options for these patients may be limited. TABCT is a viable option for these complex wound types and is not hindered by logistical, procedural, or patient factors. A consensus panel of providers with extensive experience in treatment of these wound types was convened to develop consensus recommendations on the use of TABCT in specific complex wound types. Four consensus statements were defined for TABCT use in patients who cannot undergo sharp or extensive debridement, as a protective barrier to prevent further bacterial ingress, in patients with wounds in which the entire wound bed cannot be safely visualized, and in wounds with exposed tendon and/or bone. Consensus panel recommendations show that TABCT application assists in maintenance of a moist wound healing environment, autolytic debridement, recruitment and delivery of factors essential for wound healing, prevention of pathogen entry, and ability to completely fill wound voids that cannot be fully visualized. Additional advantages of TABCT use are its cost-effectiveness, ease of access, minimal related complications, and proven clinical efficacy.
Use of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy to Successfully Treat Postoperative Pyoderma Gangrenosum Following Laparoscopic Surgery: A Case Report
Authors: van Grinsven Vincent , Schouppe Ernest , Tollens Tim
Published: May 2023

Introduction. PG is a rare neutrophilic skin disorder with a variable clinical presentation, and diagnosis is often delayed. PPG typically presents as a necrotic ulcerative lesion with surrounding erythema and is often mistaken for a surgical site infection. Delayed diagnosis can lead to extensive morbidity and a prolonged healing time. Case Report. A 75-year-old male presented to the emergency department 2 weeks following laparoscopic appendectomy for acute appendicitis. He had fever and a suspected surgical site infection. Antibiotic treatment was initiated, and debridement was performed. Eventually, the diagnosis of PPG was made. Immunosuppressive therapy combined with NPWT was initiated. Complete wound healing was achieved 2 months after admission. Conclusions. Surgeons should have a high index of suspicion of underlying skin disorders when presumed postoperative wound infections do not respond to aggressive antibiotic and surgical treatment. Early multidisciplinary consultation should be considered. In the case of PPG, the authors of the present report advise early initiation of systemic immunosuppressive therapy combined with atraumatic wound care. NPWT should be considered as appropriate. Surgical debridement may be indicated in the setting of extensive necrosis or uncontrollable superinfection.

A potential remediation of chromium (VI) containing aqueous media onto surface-treated clinoptilolite vs. brief evaluation of other natural materials
Authors: Chmielewská Eva
Published: May 2023

A broad range of various natural and commercial adsorption materials and waste products was examined in order to verify the removal of commonly occurring cationic, anionic and some organic pollutants and briefly to compare each other. The inland natural zeolites of clinoptilolite type and its surface-treated modifications were used too. Actually, untreated clinoptilolite can compete with other natural materials or even waste products, occurring in the markets of many countries at very low prices. Industrial adsorbents are usually characterized with a high surface area, mechanical stability and uniformly accessible and interlinked pores. Abundantly occurring clinoptilolite tuffs, the Slovak one used in this research, possess the necessary interparticle mesoporosity. Moreover it is a natural cost-effective resource. The most extensive uptake of the studied chromate oxyanions at laboratory measure was observed by montmorillonite (142.86 mg/g), probably based on the large interplanar dimensions of this microcrystallite. The octadecyl ammonium hydrophobized i.e. ODA-clinoptilolite approached the second highest adsorption capacity to chromate (64.93 mg/g), while the MnOx-zeolite (clinoptilolite) proved the lowest adsorption ability (12.99 mg/g). Almost for all the systems studied, the Langmuir isotherm fitted better for mathematical description of the above adsorption process. From the breakthrough curves recorded, the Pb – and ODA – clinoptilolite packed column quantitatively removed chromate anion from the solution, apparently more efficiently using the lower flow rate.

Published: May 2023

Allelopathy activity of aqueous stems extracts of Dalbergia paniculata Roxb. using Vigna radiate L. and Zea mays L. seeds germination has been carried out using pot study. Dalbergia paniculata Roxb. showed positive allelopathy activity because of the large number of allelochemicals such as saponins present in aqueous stems extracts of Dalbergia paniculata Roxb. The investigated results suggested that aqueous stems extracts of Dalbergia paniculata Roxb. have showed positive allelopathic activity in seeds germination. The rate of seeds germination percentage and seedling vigor index increased by increasing the aqueous stems extracts concentration of Dalbergia paniculata Roxb. Therefore, stems extract of Dalbergia paniculata Roxb. can be used as natural fertilizer. By using natural fertilizer, crop production increases and shows better percentage of crop yields. The stems extract of Dalbergia paniculata Roxb. may act as herbicides, pesticides, fungicides because of large amounts of allelochemicals such as saponin present in plant products.
Single-Step Selective Oxidation of Methane by Iron-Oxo Species in the Metal-Organic Framework MFU-4l
Authors: Melix Patrick , Snurr Randall Q.
Published: May 2023

The direct and selective conversion of methane to methanol can be considered a holy grail for catalysis research. In this work, we study a metal-organic framework known as MFU-4l, modified by design to include highly reactive iron-oxo species for the catalytic C-H bond activation of methane. We investigate the oxidation of methane and the further potential oxidation of the product methanol using N₂O as an oxygen source and map the potential energy landscape of these reactions using density functional theory calculations. We show that the highest energy barrier encountered during the methane oxidation process is not the C-H bond breaking, but the activation of the iron center by N₂O. Furthermore, the potential energy landscape for the C-H bond activation exhibits a large, high-energy plateau region instead of a sharp transition state, thus differing from the traditional radical rebound mechanism. This insight offers interesting potential routes to enhance the catalytic activity of the catalyst, to hinder unwanted deactivation pathways, and to reduce the activity towards the over-oxidation of the product.

Begriffsgeschichte) Reinharta Kosellecka oraz socjologii refleksyjnej Pierre’a Bourdieu, mikrohistorię narodzin, upowszechnienia się i zaniku owego uwidocznionego w tytule, podszytego rasizmem demona potocznej wyobraźni (ang. racialized folk devil) dającego o sobie znać na styku badań naukowych, dziennikarstwa i oficjalnej filantropii podporządkowanej polityce. Rzeczona historia pokazuje sposób uprawiania polityki wiedzy dotyczącej grup mieszkańców metropolii, wywłaszczonych i odartych z godności – w związku z nią proponuję trzy pojęcia, które mogą pomóc badaczom w analizowaniu używania i nadużywania innych konstruktów nauk społecznych, przyczyniając się tym samym do zwiększenia dbałości o higienę myśli: „efekt leminga” odnoszący się do znanego fenomenu zachowań stadnych (przykładem szalony pęd ku „diasporze”); „konceptualną bańkę spekulacyjną” (jak w przypadku „kapitalizmu rasowego”) oraz „problematykę szablonową” (ang. turnkey problematics) (jak w przypadku „odpornego miasta” i „miasta kreatywnego”). Ponadto omawiam czynniki sprzyjające rozwojowi koniukturalizmu epistemicznego (ang. epistemic bandwagons), spekulacji oraz szablonów pojęciowych (turnkeys) i wskazuję kryteria tworzenia efektywnych pojęć i koncepcji, biorąc pod uwagę ich aspekt semantyczny (klarowność i neutralność), logiczny (spójność i specyfikę kategorialną) oraz heurystyczny (adekwatność empiryczną i płodność teoretyczną).

Butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea L.) is an indigenous Indonesian flower that is usually consumed as a natural ingredient in herbal drinks and nutraceutical products. It contains several bioactive compounds that showed strong antioxidant activity to neutralize free radical compounds from foods. The aim of this study was to identify the bioactive compounds, antioxidant capacity and the organoleptic characteristics in the brewed of dried butterfly pea. The experimental design of this study used a completely randomized design with two factors: 1) dried butterfly pea content in water : 0,5; 1,0; dan 1,5 (g/200 ml) and 2) brewing levels (1, 2, and 3 times). The phytochemical screening analysis revealed that the brewed butterfly pea contained bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, saponins, steroids, and triterpenoids. The longer dried butterfly peas soak in water showed the higher level of total anthocyanin content, total phenolic compounds, and antioxidant activity. Organoleptic analysis showed significantly effect of the colour but not the odour or flavour of the brewed dry butterfly pea.

The development of tourism without causing harm to the surrounding natural environment, the so-called sustainable tourism, is an integral part of the sustainable development of society, which can ensure powerful harmonious development of territories. Sustainable development in the tourism industry means a harmonious combination of ecological, socio-cultural and economic factors of tourism, which are implemented in parallel with cultural and ecological development, maximally excluding harmful effects on natural ecosystems. Taking into account the negative impact of tourism on the surrounding natural environment, the issue of implementing the provisions of the concept of sustainable development in the activities of tourist enterprises requires additional research. The purpose of the study is to develop theoretical and organizational and methodological provisions of accounting in tourist enterprises as a means of achieving the goals of sustainable development, which will contribute to the growth of their investment attractiveness in the post-war period. In order to develop the tourism industry in accordance with the concept of sustainable development, it is advisable to develop and implement environmentally-oriented business management based on accounting information. It is proposed to include expenditure items related to environmental protection in the financial accounts of tourist enterprises. Such actions are aimed at the search for more ecologically sound directions for the development of tourist activity, which, in turn, can ensure a more rational use of natural resources and determine methods of restoration of damaged natural territories and objects. The implementation of the above proposals on record keeping and reporting by tourist enterprises will contribute to the information provision of interested users and will allow the creation of an environmental management system of the enterprise, as well as an effective environmental policy in tourism activities, aimed at minimizing the negative impact of tourism on the state of natural ecosystems, which will contribute to the growth of their investment attractiveness in the post-war period.
Needs and requests of users of information on the innovative capital of the enterprise: the problem of relevance
Authors: Makarovych V.K.
Published: May 2023

The need to solve the problem of the relevance of accounting information regarding the innovative capital of the enterprise has been grounded. Two main types of relevance of financial reporting (cost, credit) have been identified and characterized. The classification of subjects forming information needs and requests regarding the innovative activity of the enterprise has been carried out. The information needs of various groups of subjects regarding the enterprise's innovative capital (internal users, external users, accounting researchers, economist researchers, representatives of consulting companies, professional evaluators and analysts) have been analyzed. The reasons for the loss of relevance of accounting information in the part of the enterprise’s innovative capital generated by the current accounting system in terms of two main components of relevance (predictive value, confirmatory value) have been grounded. Two main groups of proposals have been identified to eliminate the problem of loss of relevance of accounting information in the part of innovative activity of the enterprise (within the existing accounting model, within the new accounting model).
Study of the accuracy problem of the integrated reporting assurance
Authors: Orlov I.V. , Zakharov D.M.
Published: May 2023

The article examines the problem of ensuring the reliability of information in an integrated report. The need for sustainable development has led to the emergence of integrated accounting and analytical systems that combine financial and non-financial information to support transparency of information and trust in the enterprise. Integrated accounting and analytical systems can facilitate processes such as planning, forecasting, analysis, and task execution. Integrated reporting is a forward-looking report that presents strategy, management, performance indicators, development prospects and business risks, and requires the creation of a quality internal audit service to provide control of actions and technical support for the analysis and consolidation of information. The requests of information users require transparency and reliability from integrated reporting, therefore, to ensure the fulfillment of these requirements, the enterprise must use special mechanisms and procedures, an internal audit of integrated reporting in particular. Ensuring reliability can be implemented through both external and internal audits. Companies are working to provide external guarantees on the quality of integrated reports through external independent audits and internal audits, which have the effect of reducing information asymmetry and facilitating risk assessment. Internal audit helps ensure the accuracy and reliability of data in integrated reporting, taking on a strategic role in preparing the company for the implementation and use of this report, which helps to ensure a quality level of information confirmation and ensure the trust of interested parties.

Authors: Calvo-Salvador Adelina , Rodríguez-Hoyos Carlos , Fernández-Díaz Elia
Published: May 2023

Se presentan los resultados de un estudio exploratorio descriptivo focalizado en comprender qué concepciones previas tienen los futuros maestros de Educación Infantil y Primaria de Cantabria sobre tres cuestiones centrales en el enfoque de la Educación para la Ciudadanía Global (ECG): a) qué es la «ciudadanía global» y qué características tiene un «ciudadano global», b) concepciones sobre pobreza en un mundo globalizado y c) cuál debe ser el papel de la educación enfrentándose a estas realidades. Se analizan 248 respuestas obtenidas durante dos cursos académicos tras la aplicación de un cuestionario de preguntas abiertas. El objetivo es comprender sus visiones previas para, en una segunda fase, ampliarlas y desafiarlas con la elaboración de proyectos de ECG en sus titulaciones universitarias. La ECG es aquí entendida desde la pedagogía crítica y se orienta a organizar un currículo universitario desafiante, que permita discutir temáticas vinculadas a cómo afecta la globalización a nuestras vidas.
