Süleymannâme (TSMK, H. 1517) Vr. 503a’da Yer Alan Elçi Kabul Sahnesinde Kozmik Merkez Üzerinden Yol Alan İktidar Dili
Authors: PEÇE Zaliha
Published: June 2021

Kitap sanatları arasında önemli bir yere sahip olan minyatür sanatı, yazma eserler

içerisinde yer alan metinleri görselleştirmek amacı ile yapılmışlardır. Bir haminin desteği

ile vücuda getirilen resimli tarihlerde eserin metninde olduğu gibi içerisinde yer alan

minyatürlerde de hami lehine inşa edilmiş taltif edici bir dilin varlığı göze çarpar. Bu bağlamda

bizzat padişahın ya da yüksek makamdaki devlet görevlilerinin emri ile yapımına

başlanan resimli tarihlerde padişah lehine inşa edilen, onun iktidarını taltif edici bir görsel

dilin varlığı dikkati çeker. Ele alınan makalede, padişahtan yana olan bu iktidar dilinin

Osmanlı minyatürlerindeki varlığı, Türklerdeki iktidar sembolleri ve kozmik merkez

kavramları üzerinden analiz edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu analizin yapılacağı örnek olarak

ise bizzat padişahın talimatı ile yapımına başlanan 1558 tarihli Süleymannâme (TSMK,

H. 1517) adlı eserin vr. 503a da yer alan “Kanunî Sultan Süleyman’ın Halep’teki Sarayda

Hicaz’dan Sorumlu Mekke Şerifi’nin Elçisini Huzura Kabulü” sahnesi seçilmiştir. Yapılan bu analiz sonucunda mevcut minyatürde merkez ve iktidar sembollerinin varlığından

müteşekkil bir dikey kompozisyon şemasının varlığına rast gelinmiştir.

Published: June 2021

The spread of COVID-19 reached pandemic rates in a few weeks. People have turned

to coping and religious coping styles as a result of the psychological effects of COVID-

19. In this context, this study’s primary purpose is to reveal the relationship between

fear of COVID-19, resilience, coping, and religious coping. In this article, where the

quantitative research method was used, the relational screening design was adopted as the

research design. Collected data were analyzed using correlation and structural equation

modeling. According to the findings, women, single people, people from low-income families, and people with chronic conditions are more afraid of COVID-19. Also, resilience

has been found to play a mediating role in the negative relationship between task-oriented

coping and fear of COVID-19.

L’importance de la traduction en langues nationales pour l’essor de l’éducation multilingue au Cameroun
Authors: MANIFI Maxime
Published: June 2021

Les dispositions légales et les propositions d’aménagement linguistique préconisées pour un enseignement multilingue (langues officielles et langues nationales) ne sont pas suffisamment reflétées dans les programmes actuels de l’éducation formelle au Cameroun. Dans la répartition des fonctions des langues, les langues officielles ne cessent de se tailler la part du lion à cause, entre autres, d’une faible production de supports didactiques en langues nationales ainsi que des difficultés terminologiques auxquelles ces langues font face dans l’expression des réalités scientifiques et modernes. Il se trouve cependant que la traduction favorise l’intellectualisation des langues nationales ; mieux, elle contribue à la production écrite en ces langues, tout en leur permettant de s’enrichir sur le plan terminologique au contact des langues étrangères. Mais au Cameroun, cette activité n’est exercée que dans les langues officielles ou, s’agissant des langues nationales, réduite à quelques initiatives individuelles et privées. Une attention particulière doit être accordée à l’activité traduisante en langues nationales sans laquelle l’éducation multilingue aurait du mal à éclore au Cameroun.
Mother Tongue ICT Instruction in Cameroonian Languages
Authors: NGE MEH Deris
Published: June 2021

This article presents the feasibility of conveying Information and Communication Technology (ICT) content in Mmɛn, a Bantu Grassfields language of Cameroon; a process which would imply a modernisation of the language, with a view to increasing its scientific knowledge base. It explores the processes used to create ICT terminology in this language in a bid to make such concepts relevant to the community. The focus is placed on the translation of a computer science manual used in primary schools within Cameroon’s language teaching project. Issues raised relate to translation, lexical innovation and mother tongue ICT instruction. Some solutions are proposed to problems inherent to official language into mother tongue translation, and the lexification of new phenomenon where adequate terminology is currently lacking. The results obtained highlight the role of translation and terminology in developing our languages, and indicate how ICT instruction in our languages justifies the claim that an idea expressed in one language can be expressed in any other. If well harnessed, this instruction will ensure access to innovative educational resources for rural and semi-urban Cameroonians alike, and will improve literacy and standards of living within a context of globalisation.
De la nécessité de former des spécialistes en communication pour le développement
Authors: TOURNEUX Henry
Published: June 2021

La communication entre acteurs du développement est généralement problématique. Les projets en ce domaine durent ce que durent les crédits dont ils disposent, c’est-à-dire quelques années tout au plus. Pendant ce laps de temps, les « développeurs », pris par l’urgence, omettent d’écouter vraiment leurs interlocuteurs. Un réel besoin existe de réfléchir à la communication technique pour le développement. Il serait indispensable que des linguistes s’y consacrent, en acceptant de se plier à l’interdisciplinarité et à la pratique de la traduction-adaptation dans les langues concernées.
A Critical Evaluation of New Challenges Pertaining to the Activities of Translation and Interpretation in Sub-Saharan Africa
Authors: ATCERO Milburga
Published: June 2021

Cette contribution vise à évaluer de façon critique les nouveaux défis liés à la traduction et à l’interprétation (TI) dans une Afrique subsaharienne caractérisée par sa grande diversité linguistique. L’auteur espère identifier et suggérer des méthodologies pouvant être appliquées pour rapprocher cette région du reste du monde. Il identifie, en outre, la nécessité pour l’Afrique subsaharienne de mettre en œuvre des politiques et pratiques qui favorisent le multilinguisme. Elles sont principalement basées sur la pluralité des langues, avec un espace adéquat pour les langues internationales, étant donnée le rôle crucial des parcours scolaires sur ce continent. Dans l’environnement de travail dynamique d’aujourd’hui, différentes institutions reconnaissent le rôle important joué par la TI dans la recherche et le renforcement de l’efficacité des individus comme des organisations. L’auteur s’appuie sur un cadre logique illustrant l’importance de la traduction dans les sphères socioculturelles et linguistiques, pour la production de connaissances sur l’Afrique. Il soutient que la traduction devrait être considérée comme une occasion d’explorer la diversité des possibles dans la littérature africaine. Il conclut en décrivant les méthodes envisageables et les nouvelles orientations.
Configuración de identidad racial de aprendientes de segundas lenguas en el contexto colombiano
Authors: Cruz Arcila Ferney , Bonilla Medina Sandra Ximena
Published: June 2021

Este artículo de investigación presenta los hallazgos de un estudio orientado a explorar el tipo de conexiones que pueden existir entre el aprendizaje de segundas lenguas y la configuración de identidades raciales de aprendientes de español y de inglés. Aunque este tipo de conexiones tiene grandes implicaciones para las prácticas de enseñanza y aprendizaje de lenguas en nuestro país, se ha dado por sentado y ha permanecido inexplorado. Apoyados en la teoría critica de la raza –en particular, en el concepto de blancura–, además de postulados poscoloniales, la investigación buscó problematizar la noción de identidad racial al analizarla como un factor relevante en procesos de aprendizaje de lenguas. Mediante una metodología cualitativa, el análisis de la construcción de identidades raciales se hizo por medio de narrativas escritas y orales. Entre loshallazgos principales se destaca la idea de que el aprendizaje de lenguas está directamente relacionado con formas de desafío de estructuras raciales en algunas ocasiones y de acomodación a estas, en otras. Dichos desafíos y acomodaciones se ven reflejados en diferentes tipos de posicionamientos ante diversos grupos sociales por parte de los aprendientes.

La escritura de las mujeres: espada hecha arte
Authors: Castrillón Castrillón Sandra Elena
Published: June 2021

El siguiente artículo de reflexión surge del trabajo de tesis en curso que busca rastrear las representaciones sobre las mujeres en el ensayo titulado Una habitación propia, de Virginia Woolf (2001), en el cual se exponen algunos aspectos que ella sugirió a las mujeres escritoras. Un elemento que cruza este ensayo es la hipótesis que la autora demuestra a lo largo de su texto: unamujer debe tener dinero, espacio, independencia y libertad intelectual para dejar por escrito sus ideas. El artículo se compone de dos momentos: en una primera parte se muestran las dificultades que han tenido las mujeres en el oficio de escribir y, en una segunda, se señala cómo precisa situarse una escritora en dicha labor, desde lo inédito de la mirada de las mujeres que narran el mundo desde su lente. En conclusión, la escritura es el arte a través del cual algunas mujeres narran el mundo desde sus voces todavía nuevas, reinventándose a la vez, pero al mismo tiempo es el arma con el que se señala la falta de igualdad en derechos que todavía pervive.
Complejidad estructural en textos escolares descriptivo-expositivos: estudio de corpus
Authors: Ochoa Sierra Ligia
Published: June 2021

Este artículo de investigación tiene como objeto de estudio la complejidad lingüística estructural, específicamente larelacionada con los textos escolares descriptivo-expositivos. De esta forma, en el texto se indagó acerca de los factores (dimensiones) lingüísticos que permiten medir la complejidad y clasificar los textos de una muestra. Se analizaron 80 textosescolares a partir de una serie de rasgos (agrupados en dos niveles: morfosintáctico y semántico) y a través de un análisis factorial. Los resultados muestran que los factores cantidad, prototipicidad e informatividad, resultaron significativos y elfactor variedad parcialmente productivo. Frente a los rasgos, se valida la hipótesis de que es necesario incluir en el análisisno solo rasgos sintácticos sino también semánticos e incluso pragmáticos; no obstante, estos resultados son provisionalespues se requiere repensar los criterios y las hipótesis explicativas dadas.
Trascendencia y sacralidad implícitas en el lenguaje secular
Authors: Sarrazin Jean Paul
Published: June 2021

Inscribiéndose en el debate sobre el devenir de la religión en una era secular, este artículo de investigación analiza las expresiones de religiosidad presentes en lenguajes comúnmente considerados seculares. Para esto, se recurre a unametodología cualitativa centrada en entrevistas no estructuradas, abiertas y en profundidad, realizadas en un conjunto de estudiantes universitarios. Los resultados muestran que, para los entrevistados, lo más importante en sus vidas es su familia y sus metas, dos conceptos relacionados con valores últimos que constituyen una religiosidad implícita propia de la modernidad. Se concluye que esta religiosidad se manifiesta a través de la sacralidad del yo y la trascendencia mediante el progreso, nociones que deben ser comprendidas en el marco de procesos generales como la desinstitucionalización, la individualizacióny la modernización reflexiva.
Judicial Agency in the Grand Duchy
of Lithuania in the 16th Century
Authors: Belyaev M. P.
Published: June 2021

This article describes the development of judicial representation in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the 16th century. For the first time, the organizational design and legislative consolidation of judicial representation took place in cities with Magdeburg law. The emergence of professional judicial representatives was associated, first of all, with the adoption of the Statute of 1529, which contains legal norms that allow substituting parties in court. The status of professional representatives – lawyers who were called procurators – was consolidated. The statute of 1566, which actually summarized the 30-year practice of law, quite clearly regulated the conduct of the case in court, both personally and through a procurator. The grounds were established when a lawyer was provided free of charge by appointment of a court. The 1588 Statute regulated in detail the procedure for empowering a judicial representative. The author concludes that the institution of representation is firmly rooted in the judicial process, received its written confirmation in the Statutes and, as a result, led to the formation of the institution of the Advocacy.
Artificial Intelligence as a Subject of Criminal Responsibility:
the Present and Prospects
Authors: Kartashov Igor I. , Kartashov Ivan I.
Published: June 2021

The development of technologies related to artificial intelligence affects more and more areas of human activity. Elements of artificial intelligence are present in many devices and systems. This area is actively developing in the field of financial services and consulting, healthcare, and transport.
The expansion of the scope of activities of AI systems creates certain prerequisites for improving regulatory regulation. The intensity of the use of AI currently does not allow us to talk about a significant number of facts of committing criminal acts with its participation. However, further improvement of such systems can have a more significant impact on human life. Nevertheless, it is already possible to talk about cases of committing socially dangerous acts using systems with artificial intelligence, which entailed serious consequences. In these circumstances, the legal regulation of the use of such systems becomes important.
The authors analyze the points of view on the understanding of the phenomenon of artificial intelligence and make an attempt to formulate its definition, suitable for use by legal science. Theoretical, legislative and practical issues related to the criminal-legal assessment of the activity of systems with artificial intelligence are considered, in particular, the possibility of artificial intelligence to act as a subject of crime.
Institutional Approach to Combating Corruption
in the Penal System: Foreign and Russian Experience
Authors: Uporov A. G.
Published: June 2021

The issues of corruption, which penetrates into any sphere of public life, are occupied by politicians and legal scholars of all countries. This article attempts to outline the system of legal regulation of corruption in international law and, in particular, in the penal system.
The aim of the work is to identify possible ways to combat corruption in the Russian Federation, based on international experience. To achieve this goal, a number of tasks are being solved, namely, the identification of the range of entities operating in the penal system at the international level and the legal basis for their activities, the analysis of the achievements of the largest public institutions regulating this area, the determination of corruption trends in this area and measures to combat them.
This study is based on the research of Russian specialists of the past five years. One of the main sources of practical experience in combating corruption is the report of the international non-governmental organization International Penitentiary Reform, one of the largest analytical documents of the last five years, detailing the specific problems of the penal system.
The study is carried out within the framework of an institutional approach, in view of the fact that in each country of the world the fight against corruption is carried out within the framework of a body.
Preparing Carbon Bactericide Sorbents from Waste Wood Boards
Authors: Glushankova I. S. , Kombarova M. M. , Atanova A. S.
Published: June 2021

The paper presents the results of research on the disposal
of large-tonnage composite polymer waste - wood-particle boards by the method of catalytic low-temperature pyrolysis for preparation of carbon materials. Salts and nickel were used as catalysts. The influence
of temperature, mass ratio “waste: metal ions” on the yield and properties of carbonizate was investigated. It was found that when pyrolysis is carried out at a temperature of 600 °C for 30 min in the presence of catalysts, carbon materials are formed with a developed porous structure and high sorption activity with respect to the methylene blue dye and iodine. It is shown that the metals catalyzing pyrolysis are incorporated into the processes of the forming sorbent.
The studies carried out on the treatment of biologically active river water showed a high bactericidal ability of the obtained samples
of sorbents. The developed method of catalytic pyrolysis of waste made
it possible to obtain bactericidal carbon sorbents that can be used for deep additional purification and disinfection of biologically treated wastewater.

Published: June 2021

At the present stage of development of society, management of large infrastructural objects of the regional economy is an important national economic task. The complexity of its solution
is primarily associated with the need to take into account in the long-term perspective the needs of yet unborn generations of people and qualitative changes in the control object that arise in the process of its operation.
In this paper, control objects are considered on a universal scientific platform of natural-industrial systems, and the control process itself
is presented as a multi-step one. Introduced and formalized the concept
of “problematic situation”, which prevents the system from advancing towards the goals of sustainable development, a method for reducing the number of indicators for assessing the state of the system is proposed.
The management strategy uses the “principle of foresight” and the scheme of making compromise decisions due to the presence of contradictions
in the indicators of development.

Lettere al Direttore
Authors:   ARCA Umbria
Published: June 2021

Pubblichiamo volentieri questa lettera indirizzata al Presidente Nazionale ARCA e agli Editors di Cardiologia Ambulatoriale dal Consiglio Direttivo e dai Soci di ARCA Umbria. Il titolo è particolarmente intrigante: La terapia del diabetico cardiopatico: il cardiologo dimezzato. Il tema, quello dei nuovi farmaci inizialmente proposti per il trattamento del diabete tipo 2 (SGLT2-i e GLP-1 ra) è quanto mai attuale, tanto che una intera rassegna in questo numero della Rivista e larga parte dell’Editoriale iniziale sono dedicate alla trattazione dello stesso argomento. Questi farmaci hanno oltrepassato lo stretto confine della terapia antidiabetica, per assumere indicazioni evidence-based nel trattamento del paziente cardiopatico, sia esso diabetico o non diabetico. Tuttavia i cardiologi non sono attualmente autorizzati a prescrivere liberamente in regime di rimborsabilità questi farmaci, privando di fatto i loro pazienti di benefici tangibili. ARCA Umbria è sempre stata sensibile a sottolineare, come in questo caso, il chiaro gap fra le evidenze scientifiche e la giurisdizione medica.
Insufficienza venosa cronica: epidemiologia, fisiopatologia e diagnosi
Authors: Cardinale Antonio , Calciano Francesco Paolo
Published: June 2021

La medicina dovrebbe essere un gioco di squadra, oggi sempre declamato ma poco realizzato. Andare al di là dell'individualismo, valido in ogni disciplina, lo è anche in ambito angiologico. La gestione della insufficienza venosa cronica (IVC) coinvolge diversi specialisti, dal medico di medicina generale (MMG), all’angiologo, al cardiologo, al nutrizionista, al ginecologo, al chirurgo vascolare per citarne alcuni. La prevalenza dell’IVC è elevata: un italiano su due è colpito da questa malattia. L’età media di chi la contrae è in genere sopra i 50 anni, e sono le donne a esserne maggiormente colpite. I segni clinici sono correlati alle alterazioni fisiopatologiche. Il quadro clinico della IVC è caratterizzato da sintomi e segni legati all’ipertensione venosa, con alterazioni strutturali o funzionali delle vene. Vengono richiamati i punti fondamentali della fisiopatologia della IVC: ipertensione venosa passiva, stasi, aumento della permeabilità, disfunzione endoteliale, attivazione infiammatoria. La diagnosi di trombosi venosa profonda (TVP) è sottostimata. Il gold-standard diagnostico è l’eco-color-Doppler con l’utilizzo della ultrasonografia per compressione semplificata (CUS). Nell’era della digitalizzazione è nata l’esigenza di realizzare un database condiviso da tutti, con dati uniformi, per cui da alcuni anni è stata messa a punto la MEVec (mappa venosa emodinamica). Infine viene sottolineata l’importanza della tempestività nell'iniziare la terapia medica seguendo le linee guide emanate dalle società scientifiche per ridurre morbilità e mortalità associate e contrastare l’incidenza di sequele a distanza.
Morphological Variability of Leonurus quinquelobatus (Lamiaceae): Environmental and Resource Potential Perspective
Authors: Zagurskaya Yulia V. , Siromlya Tatyana I. , Bayandina Irina I.
Published: June 2021

The influence of the environment on the studied characteristics can be determined when growing genetically similar plants in different environmental conditions. The medicinal plant Leonurus quinquelobatus Gilib. (five-bladed motherwort) belongs to a group of plants that are most responsive to changes of environmental conditions. Plants were grown from genetically uniform seeds in trial plots in three different southern regions of West Siberia (Kemerovo, Novosibirsk, and Kamlak Village, Altai Republic). Measurements were performed for 10 model live plants in each trial plot three times per growing season during three years. Variability of 23 vegetative and generative traits was studied based on linear, quantitative, and calculated data. The following traits correlated significantly with the phase of development: height of plant; branching of first-order shoots; length of the generative parts; inflorescence size share in plant height; width of generative part of the shoot; number of generative internodes of the first-order shoot; numbers of internodes with buds, flowers, and fruit; flowering index; fruiting index. The following traits changed significantly in different habitats: plant height; branching of first-order shoots; all generative traits studied. The branching and flowering indices changed due to the interaction of factors. The projection area of the aboveground part and the number of third-order shoots on a second-order shoot did not depend significantly on either the development phase or the growing region. For further research, the number of morphological traits under study could be reduced depending on the aims of the research
Mercury Speciation in Natural and Mining-Related Systems
Authors: Gustaytis Maria A. , Myagkaya Irina N. , Malov Victor I. , Lazareva Elena V. , Shuvaeva Olga V.
Published: June 2021

Mercury speciation and the composition of mercury phases in natural and mining-related environments is studied by the thermal release analysis combined with electrothermal atomic absorption spectroscopy (TA-ET-AAS), as well as scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis (SEM-EDS). The analyses are applied to laboratory-made samples bearing mercury selenide and to field samples from sites known for relatively high natural or industrially induced Hg background. They are, namely, material from the dispersion train of the Ursk sulfide tailings (Ursk Village, Kemerovo region) and debris precipitated from snow sampled in the Kurai mercury zone (Aktash Village, Gorny Altai). The TA-ET-AAS method works well in discrimination and identification of Hg sulfide and Hg selenide provided that the samples contain sufficient amounts of both compounds, but the sum HgS + HgSe can be determined at any contents of the two compounds. The presence of both mercury sulfide and mercury selenide in the samples has been confirmed by SEM-EDS microanalysis. The temperature ranges for the mercury species (Hg2+; HgS+HgSe mixture; mercury bound with organic matter (Hg-OM), including CH3Hg+) are identical in the laboratory and field samples. Therefore, the suggested approach can ensure fast and reliable detection of Hg phases in rocks exposed to supergene alteration

Authors: Sekushin Nikolay A. , Zhuk Nadezhda A.
Published: June 2021

A phase-pure mixed oxide of the composition Bi2MgNbTaO9 with a pyrochlore structure was obtained by the ceramic synthesis method. The sample was characterized by the methods of X-ray phase and EDS analyzes, electron scanning microscopy. The electrical properties of samples of different thicknesses were investigated by impedance spectroscopy. The unit cell parameter is a = 1.0544 nm (sp. gr. Fd3m). As a result of modeling the impedance hodographs, an equivalent circuit is proposed that satisfactorily describes the electrical behavior of the sample. Bi2MgNbTaO9 is characterized by a high activation energy of 1.28 eV; moderately high dielectric constant ~62–71 and dielectric loss tangent ~0.003 at 1 MHz and 18 °С. No ionic transfer was detected. The investigated ceramics can be used to create multilayer ceramic capacitors

Critérios de triagem em pandemia: o factor idade
Authors: Patrão Neves Maria do Céu
Published: June 2021

Triage, or patients’ prioritizing, started as a successful strategy to save as many wounded as possible. Throughout its short history, the triage system has evolved, responding positively to the clinical needs of patients in different situations. It has always taken on an unequivocal ethical dimension, being based on the recognition of the equal value of all lives and structured with the purpose of saving lives. The ethical scrutiny therefore focuses on the triage criteria: “first-come, first-served” and “high severity, high-priority”, “rationing” and “rationalization” of resources. The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic unleashed unparalleled pressure on human and technical health resources, which led to a rationing triage, based on chronological age as a factor of exclusion, which violates human dignity and social justice. At the same time, it presents itself as an equivocal reality, with a weak argument, shaped by a language policy, and revealing a logic of action abusive of human rights, being, therefore, ethically unacceptable.
Educar para la salud en tiempos de pandemia
Authors: Capella Vicente Bellver
Published: June 2021

La experiencia de la pandemia que estamos viviendo exige repensar la educación para la salud. En este trabajo lo hacemos a partir de dos conceptos procedentes de la Declaración Universal de los Derecho Humanos: primero, entender que el fin de la educación es el pleno desarrollo de la persona; y segundo, que los deberes para con la comunidad contribuyen a ese desarrollo. A partir de ellos, defendemos una concepción de la educación para la salud basada en el carácter relacional del ser humano, en la relevancia de los determinantes sociales de la salud y en los peligros del entorno digital, a pesar de los enormes beneficios que ha aportado durante la pandemia.

Reusing domestic wastewater is an alternative for irrigated agriculture, helping to decrease pressure on good quality water. This study aimed to evaluate the biomass production and essential oil content and composition in the basil genotypes ‘Alfavaca Basilicão’ and ‘Grecco a Palla’ with different plant spacing in hydroponic systems. Two experiments were carried out between March and May (Experiment I) and July and September of 2015 (Experiment II) in a completely randomized design with four replicates in a 2×3 factorial arrangement. In Experiment I, two hydroponic systems (Laminar Nutrient Flow Technique - NFT and Deep Nutrient Flow Technique - DFT) and three plant spacings in hydroponic channels (0.20, 0.30, and 0.40 m) were evaluated. In Experiment II in the DFT hydroponic system, two types of water (tap water and treated domestic effluents) and three nutrient solution recirculation intervals (at intervals of 2, 4, and 6 h) were evaluated. In general, the dry biomass per plant, oil content and oil yield of the two basil genotypes were not influenced by the hydroponic systems, plant spacing, or water type. In Experiment II, the increase between the recirculation intervals (4 or 6 h) negatively affected genotype ‘Grecco a Palla’. Linalool was the major constituent in the essential oil of the two basil genotypes, ranging from 47.00 to 70.10% (Experiment I) and from 59.47 to 63.64% (Experiment II) in genotype ‘Alfavaca Basilicão’; in genotype ‘Grecco a Palla’, it ranged from 10.19 to 43.03% (Experiment I) and from 19.94 to 53.37% (Experiment II).

Cassava (Manihot esculenta) shows high phenotypic plasticity, acclimatization, wide adaptability, and resilience to adverse edaphoclimatic conditions. In this context, this systematic review aims to identify what were the factors that determined the production of cassava in Brazil in the last three decades, and to direct what are the possible perspectives of the crop in the country. The methodology to produce this review was based on studies that which integrate the academic information produced in different situations (1990-2020), environments, states, groups of researchers and existing scientific evidence for this theme. Based on the information, a binary matrix of information was assembled based on the following characters, plant density per hectare, soil type, city, state, average air temperature, planting line spacing, plant spacing on the planting line, implantation date, implantation station, harvesting station, productivity per hectare, days for harvest, liming, fertilization, precipitation and climate. It is evident that in the last 30 years the productivity of cassava in Brazil has been increased, mainly in low-income populations and those located in rural areas. There are prospects for increasing cassava production for fresh sale and industry. The crop is characterized as rustic, highly adaptive, tolerant of water stress and acidic soils, being highly influenced by the climate, rainfall, air temperature, and incident solar radiation. Productivity is determined by the time of implantation, liming, fertilization, density, and plant arrangement.
Current status of plant pathogens of agricultural importance for Colombia. A review
Authors: Amaro Tiago Miguel Marques Monteiro , Cope Jonathan , Franco-Orozco Bárbara
Published: June 2021

Plant disease still plays a major role in limiting agricultural production worldwide. Pathogens and pests reduce crop yield and can cause large reductions in crop quality. Colombia is no exception as it contends with many devastating pathogens that present a major threat to the country’s agricultural sector. This review is important because it highlights four of the more damaging pathogens that affect the economics of important crops in Colombia - Xanthomonas phaseoli pv. manihotis (Xpm), Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), Phytophthora palmivora, and Hemileia vastatrix. This paper was based on an extensive literature search for plant diseases in Colombia in databases such as PubMed and Google Scholar. Moreover, this search was complemented with research on crop production in the country in databases made available by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The four pathogens reviewed in this paper were chosen not only because of their current devastating effects on Colombia’s agricultural production but also because of their potential to cause further damage in the near future. Understanding the current situation of these crop pathogens in Colombia is imperative for state directives aimed at developing informed and efficient control strategies.
Context Lost: Digital Surrogates, Their Physical Counterparts, and the Metadata that Is Keeping Them Apart
Authors: Force Donald C. , Smith Randy
Published: June 2021

The digitization of archival collections has become ubiquitous in the modern age. Contrary to the prevalence and popularity of these virtual collections, they are not without their limitations. Archivists have not sufficiently addressed the relationship between digital surrogates and their original objects. This article reviews a project undertaken by the authors who examined forty-two digitized archival collections from seven midwestern states. The study sought to determine whether digital surrogates include sufficient metadata to enable the viewer to understand that the virtual object is a representation of a physical object, that the physical object may be accessed, and that the physical object is part of a larger collection. The article concludes that the metadata fields used to describe digital surrogates vary across repositories, as well as within the institutions; and that very little metadata provides strong connections between the virtual images and the physical materials they represent. The authors conclude by providing recommendations for how archivists might improve the linkages between digital surrogates and their physical counterparts.

Published: June 2021

Background: Safe blood is a critical component in improving health care and in preventing the spread of infectious diseases. Aims & Objectives: Blood transfusion can cause the transmission of infectious to recipients. This is an important mode of infection. The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of such type of infection among blood donors and to compare the seroprevalence of transfusion transmitted diseases in blood donors. Retrospective study was conducted for 5 years from January-2009 to December-2013 at KIMS Blood Bank, Secunderabad. Materials and methods: All donors reporting to the blood bank during the period January-2009 to December-2013 were screened for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) 1 & 2, hepatitis C viruses, malaria and syphilis. Screening of HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C viruses were done by chemillumiencies and syphilis was screened by RPR method. Results: A total of 39780 voluntary blood donors were screened, of which 38697 were males and 1083 were females. Seropositivity of HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C viruses & syphilis were 0.26%, 1.28%, 0.51% and 0.03% respectively. No blood donors test showed positivity for malaria parasite. Conclusion: With the implementation of strict donor selection criteria and use of sensitive screening test, it may be possible to reduce the incidence of TTIs.

Published: June 2021

Aim: The present study is undertaken to find out if obesity especially, visceral fat has any correlation with cardiovascular sympathetic activity in female undergraduate medical students. Materials and methods: 24 females with mean age of 20 ± 2 of same community participated in the study. They were divided into 2 groups: Group I- Normal (BMI < 25), Group II –Obese (BMI > 30). Group II was again divided in to two subgroups, with normal visceral fat (VF), with increased visceral fat (>10). Visceral fat, BMI and resting metabolism were measured using OMRON HBF - 362. Base line systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured. Sympathetic nerve activity was assessed using hand grip dynamometer, 30% of Tmax was calculated and simultaneously BP changes were monitored. Results: Results were assessed using ‘t’ test. A statistically significant difference (< 0.05) was observed in resting metabolism, baseline SBP, DBP and sympathetic activity between normal and obese groups. Baseline SBP varied significantly with visceral fat within the obese group. Conclusion: The present study shows obesity increases sympathetic activity and visceral fat plays an important role in regulation of baseline BP, especially SBP even in young girls. Keywords: Visceral fat; Obesity; Resting metabolism; Sympathetic activity
Broncho-esophageal fistula: Successful surgical repair after failed esophageal stent
Authors: RA Sastry , K Sanjeev
Published: June 2021

Introduction: Acquired broncho-esophageal fistulas are uncommon and typically malignant in origin. Because of their location, they are difficult to treat and involve complicated repairs with equivocal results. Prior treatment with self-expanding stents when not successful, makes the management even more complicated. Patients and methods: In a three-year period, three patients were seen with acquired broncho-esophageal fistulas of non-malignant origin. One of them was following trauma and erosion of a self-expanding plastic stent that was inserted for esophageal perforation. The second patient had tubercular lymphadenitis with erosion in to esophagus and left bronchus while the third followed long term impaction of a denture and a difficult endoscopic extraction. All the three had failed self-expanding stents as a treatment to bridge the fistula, over a varying period of time (three months to three years) and had expanded to 1.5 cm to 2.5 cm in diameter. All the fistulas were between the esophagus and left bronchus. Results: After the fistula was localized, the problem was addressed by a thoraco-laparotomy, direct incision over the stent, piece-meal removal of the self-expanding plastic stent that was in shreds and stapling the collapsed esophagus on either side of the fistula, leaving the esophageal remnant to bridge the communication. Following success of this manoeuvre, the same technique was applied primarily to the next two patients with successful results. At a follow-up of 1-3 years, all the three patients are symptom free. Conclusion: Long standing self-expanding stents used for benign esophageal fistulas may result in erosion to the bronchial tree or aggravation of the existing fistulas and require innovative management to avoid complicated repairs with high failure rates.

Tumoral lesions of bone
Authors: S Kakarla
Published: June 2021

In daily radiological practice, one often encounters problems in differentiating real bone tumors from tumoral bone lesions. Bone reacts in limited ways for any stimulus of developmental or acquired nature. These pathological reactions are reflected in radiology and imaging investigations. These include new or reactive bone which is dense, lysis of the bone are non-mineralized matrix which is lucent and periosteal reaction in several patterns. It may be a combination of these lesions.
