Objective: Several chemotherapeutic agents, including cyclophosphamide (CP) and busulfan, have been shown to interfere with spermatogenesis. Accordingly, the main objective of this study was to evaluate the potential therapeutic effects of curcumin nanoemulsion (CUR-NE) on spermatogenesis in mice with CP-induced testicular toxicity. Methods: A total of 28 adult male mice were equally divided into four groups: control, CUR-NE (30 mg/kg, daily for 5 weeks), CP (200 mg/kg, single dose), and CP+CUR-NE. Each group was evaluated regarding sperm parameters, DNA fragmentation index, chromatin maturation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and histological parameters of the testes. Serum levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone, and testosterone were also assessed in all groups. Results: In CP-induced mice, CUR-NE treatment significantly improved sperm parameters, including total sperm count, motility, morphology, and DNA integrity. CUR-NE administration was also associated with significantly higher serum levels of testosterone and FSH, as well as testis weight and volume, in the mice treated with CP. Furthermore, CUR-NE treatment significantly increased the number of spermatogonia, primary spermatocytes, round spermatids, and Leydig cells in the testicular tissue of these animals. A marked reduction in ROS levels in the testes tissue was observed following administration of CUR-NE to CP-induced mice. Conclusion: CUR-NE appears to promote spermatogenesis in mice with CP-induced testicular toxicity by reducing ROS levels, improving testicular stereological parameters, and strengthening the reproductive hormone profile.

Food is important for all organisms because it provides the energy required by a person for proper physical and mental functioning. Fish provides the best nutrients that help our body build and repair. This study was to evaluate the effectiveness of replacing fish meals for production with high-quality culture fish that is less costly. This study was conducted from January 2024 to March 2024. The red Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus juvenile, is a member of the Cichlidae family. They were collected from the Fisheries Department's Neyyar dam at Trivandrum in Kerala. Third-instar larvae flesh flies are prepared by drying and pulverizing into powder form. Five groups of fries were maintained. Group 1 was fed on the usual fish meal. Group 2 was reared exclusively on the maggot meal made from the maggot reared on plant waste (MM 1). Group 3 fry were reared on maggot meal prepared from maggot reared or animal waste (MM 2), Group 4 fry were reared on mixed maggot meal prepared from plant waste (MM 1) with usual fish meal, and Group 5 fry were reared on maggot meal prepared from maggot reared on animal waste (MM 2) with usual fish meal. We were finally determined that Diet 5 (MM 2 + Usual Fish Meal) is more effective than other diets. The growth performance consists of the initial body weight being 0.12±0.12 and the final body weight being 4.57± 1.45, respectively. In the case of usual fish meal (Diet 1), it showed a lower growth rate (0.18±0.11) than other diets and finally attained 1.11±0.19 g. It therefore concluded that the maggot meal can be a good supplementary food with high nutrient values, which proved that the growth performance of O. niloticus
Language on the Road
Authors: Uwen God’sgift Ogban , Ohonsi Ugenlo Lucky
Published: September 2024

This paper examines (mis)interpretations of the semiotic components of road signs by road users within the Nigerian sociocultural environment using global standards as an evaluative framework. The selected roads were two Trunk A highways: Calabar-Uyo and Calabar-Ogoja in Cross River State, Nigeria. The study adopts insights from Geosemiotics theory to account for drivers' (mis)interpretation of road signs as influenced by their shared cognitive sociocultural knowledge. The data was generated using participant observation, semi-structured interviews with digital photographs, and field notes in a two-year fieldwork involving 32 drivers who plied the roads regularly. Findings indicate that motorists along the selected roads maintain a consistent road signs culture that contains mixed global and indigenous semiotic components. While certain road signs align with global standards and meanings, others represent index local comprehension derived from Nigerian ethnocultural backgrounds. The localised standards are prominent in warning and informative signs that are characteristically symbolic, iconic, and indexical, and are combined for the dissemination of messages. These mixed practices call for a blended road signs system that attends to the information needs for the safety of both Nigerian indigenous and foreign road users.
Technological Adaptation and the Role of Social Media in the Proliferation of the Newly Created Minim Script from Burkina Faso
Authors: Kostelnik Jannis
Published: September 2024

This paper seeks to present an emerging, academically yet undocumented alphabetic script invented by Mahamadi Ouédraogo (*1983), an Islamic scholar from Burkina Faso. This script, called minim biisi (“Letters of Knowledge”) by its creator shows some historical continuities both to other West African Scripts as well as to Islamic traditions of cryptography and secret alphabets, yet at the same time offers interesting insights into the creative endeavours of a script creator in the digital age. Drawing on my fieldwork with the inventor of the script and some of his closest adherents in Ouagadougou, this contribution traces how Ouédraogo resolved the challenge of digitalizing his script by employing open-access font-creating software, thus avoiding regulating authorities such as the Unicode Consortium, Burkinabè policymakers, and software developers. It presents the various fonts he has created for his script and the possible issues and difficulties posed by some characteristics of his script, which are cross-linguistically rarely encountered. Additionally, it seeks to document how social media and social networks such as Facebook, YouTube, and WhatsApp play a role in the proliferation of this script and how these proliferation efforts are received by digital audiences. Due to the internationality of social media, these audiences are not only found within Burkina Faso, but also in the diaspora, which is reflective of the creative and decisive roles diasporas have played and continue to play in the creation and proliferation of West African Scripts, especially N’ko.
Counter-Hegemonic Gender Discourse in Jukun Proverbs
Authors: Agyo Azetu Azashi
Published: September 2024

Proverbs have long functioned as repositories of cultural wisdom, reflecting the values, beliefs, and social norms of diverse communities. The domain of gender discourse remains a dynamic arena for the negotiation of societal norms, power dynamics, and resistance to prevailing ideologies. Grounded in the theoretical framework of standpoint feminism, this study adopts a lens that acknowledges the complex interplay of gender dynamics within the Jukun community. This framework provides a nuanced perspective for understanding how counter-hegemonic gender discourse emerges within the broad context of Jukun proverbs. Employing a qualitative research approach, this project conducts a comprehensive analysis of a diverse range of Jukun proverbs, exploring the cultural, historical and social contexts that have nurtured counter-hegemonic expressions among the Jukun. The proverbs are examined not only as linguistic artifacts but also as reflections of lived experiences and resistance to dominant narratives. Within this rich linguistic framework, the work uncovers the subtle yet potent expressions that challenge, subvert or redefine traditional gender norms and ideologies. Ultimately, the study contributes to a deeper understanding of the intricate relationship between language, culture and gender, shedding light on the evolving dynamics of gender discourse within this diverse and vibrant community. It reaffirms the importance of linguistic and cultural analysis in the pursuit of gender equity and social change.

With the synergy of various parties, the integration of MIPA materials is expected to realize the goals of national education, namely creating a society that is intelligent, noble, and ready to face global challenges.
UYAP’IN HOLİSTİK GÜVENLİK DENETİMİ
Authors: Yıldırım Hakan
Published: September 2024

UYAP (Ulusal Yargı Ağı Bilişim Sistemi), Türkiye'nin adalet sisteminin dijitalleşmesi amacıyla oluşturulmuş büyük ve çok taraflı bir bilişim sistemidir. Bu geniş kapsamlı sistem, yargı süreçlerini daha hızlı, verimli ve şeffaf hale getirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Ancak, bu büyüklükteki ve bu kadar tarafı olan bir sistemin yönetim karmaşası yaşaması çok normaldir ve sistemin Holistik olarak güvenliğinin sağlandığını söylemek mümkün değildir. Holistik yaklaşım, sistemin tüm bileşenlerinin ve güvenlik unsurlarının bir bütün olarak değerlendirilmesi gerektiğini ifade eder. Bir bilişim sisteminin güvenliğinin fiziksel, sanal, politika, veri, bilgi, mahremiyet, kişisel ve ulusal gibi pek çok boyutunun birlikte alınmasına ‘Holistik Güvenlik’ denmektedir. UYAP’ın güvenlik politikalarının tüm paydaşlarca belirlenmesi ve denetlenmesi büyük önem taşımaktadır, ancak mevcut durumda UYAP’ın güvenliğiyle ilgili olarak kimin ne ölçüde yetki ve sorumluluğu olduğuna dair belirsizlikler bulunmaktadır. Bu durum, UYAP'ın denetiminin bağımsız ve UYAP'ı kullanan tarafların geniş tabanlı temsilinden oluşan bir kurul tarafından yapılması gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Bu kurul hem güvenlik hem de denetim politika ve standartlarını belirlemelidir. Bu makale, UYAP'ın etkili yönetim ve denetimi için politika belirleyici olarak oluşturulması gerekli bir kurulda temsil edilmesi gereken tarafları ve kurulun yetkileri hakkında bir öneri sunmuştur.
Encounters with Attractive Strangers: A Metaphor Analysis of Memorable Questions in Initial Interactions
Authors: Gibson Danna M. , Webb Lynne M. ,   Pennsylvania Communication Association
Published: September 2024

We interviewed 16 undergraduate students soliciting (a) metaphors to describe initial interactions as well as (b) memorable questions posed by attractive strangers of the opposite sex. Using thematic analysis, we discovered that the interviewees metaphorically described initial interactions in terms of time, control, sexuality, valence, and extremes. All interviewees recalled memorable questions posed by attractive strangers of the opposite sex. Our analyses indicated that typical memorable questions could be characterized as nonsexual control attempts that were perceived by the receivers as positive but extreme. Interviewees’ initial impression of memorable questions typically became more positive over time.
Incarceration as Neo-Slavery: A Feminist Analysis of Angela Davis's Rhetoric
Authors: Russell Vincent ,   Pennsylvania Communication Association
Published: September 2024

This research explores rhetorical strategies employed by Angela Davis to (re)conceptualize liberal freedom as collective freedom and uncover hidden forms of oppression within America's criminal justice system. Criminal justice reform movements have gained increased attention in recent years, most notably through the Black Lives Matter movement, and Davis's rhetoric offers insights into how oppressive discourses can be deconstructed and challenged. Davis's strategies also demonstrate how abolitionist rhetoric from the 19th century has adapted to confront exigencies of the 21st century. This essay aims to understand how Davis relied on rhetorical strategies in two speeches she gave in the mid-2000s. I argue that Davis employed the metaphor of "prison is slavery" by using vivid examples and connecting present circumstances to historical beginnings. She also used contradiction as a rhetorical strategy and provided international comparisons to illuminate possibilities for transformation.

In this study, the use of interior dyes with antibacterial properties was examined. Boric acid (H3BO3), which is a cheap and easily obtainable boron compound from our country's resources, has an antibacterial effect. Within the scope of the study, firstly, boric acid mixtures were prepared in appropriate concentrations and antibacterial dye production studies were carried out by adding them to indoor dyes. The antibacterial properties of the obtained dye were investigated through the inhibition effect on E. coli bacteria and its antibacterial activity was tested, and then the brightness, density, film thickness, scorching, pencil hardness and drying time tests of the dyes and the suitability of their characteristics to TS 5808/2012 and the applicability of these dyes were evaluated. The results showed that the antibacterial effect of boric acid did not have a negative effect on the dye quality, but maintained the standard values of the dye.
Política de resposta a incidentes cibernéticos e estratégias de aderência à legislação brasileira
Authors: Vazquez Fabio José Buchedid
Published: September 2024

Com o crescente aumento dos riscos cibernéticos, a proteção de dados e a conformidade com a legislação têm se tornado prioridades cruciais para organizações no Brasil. Este artigo explora a importância da política de resposta a incidentes cibernéticos e apresenta estratégias eficazes para garantir a aderência às normas legais brasileiras. Os riscos cibernéticos, que incluem ataques a sistemas e vazamentos de dados, têm mostrado um crescimento exponencial, afetando tanto empresas quanto indivíduos. A Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD) impõe exigências rigorosas sobre a proteção de informações pessoais, com penalidades severas para violações. A política de resposta a incidentes é uma ferramenta essencial para mitigar esses riscos, permitindo que as organizações detectem, respondam e se recuperem de ataques cibernéticos de forma eficaz. Este artigo detalha as melhores práticas para desenvolver e implementar essas políticas, abordando desde a identificação e avaliação de riscos até a comunicação e o treinamento das equipes envolvidas. Além disso, discute a integração dessas práticas com os requisitos da LGPD, destacando a necessidade de uma abordagem proativa para a conformidade. Ao adotar estratégias robustas de resposta a incidentes e garantir a conformidade com a legislação, as organizações podem não apenas proteger seus ativos e dados, mas também fortalecer sua posição no mercado e aumentar a confiança de clientes e parceiros.

This study explores the impact of bank-specific characteristics and macroeconomic factors influence banks' profitability in an emerging economy. In order to evaluate the internal features of banks, the study takes into account a number of firm-level variables, such as the Liquidity Ratio, Loan-to-Deposit Ratio, Capital Adequacy Ratio, Investment Income, Non-Performing Loans, and Total Assets. The real interest rate, the GDP, and inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) are regarded as external macroeconomic variables. Return on Assets (ROA) and Interest Income are the two main metrics used to assess profitability. The research makes use of a panel data collection that includes 80 observations from 10 banks between 2014 and 2021. A multiple regression analysis is conducted to assess the impact of macroeconomic variables and bank-specific attributes on profitability. The findings demonstrate that capital adequacy ratio and investment income have large positive effects on profitability (ROA), whereas real interest rates, GDP, and non-performing loans have considerable negative effects. Liquidity, Loan-to-Deposit Ratio, Total Assets, and Inflation do not statistically significantly affect ROA.
