Species Diversity, Abundance, and Habitat Association of Medium and Large-Sized Wild Mammals in Gelama Block of Arsi Mountains National Park, Southeast Ethiopia
Authors: Demisie Desalegn , Desta Hadis , Ahmed Jemal
Published: September 2022

This study assessed species diversity, abundance, and habitat
association of medium and large-sized mammals in the Gelama block of
Arsi Mountains National Park, Southeast Ethiopia. The study covered two
seasons extending between February and August 2020. Based on the
vegetation cover and topographic variation, the study area was
stratified into four habitat types. A total of 74 transect lines were
systematically established, 14 for Afroalpine, 26 for Ericaceous, 18 for
Natural forest, and 16 for Mixed plantation. The survey for mammals was
done by walking on foot along each transect. A total of 25 medium and
large-sized mammals were recorded, including globally threatened and
endemic mammals like Canis simensis and Tragelaphus buxtoni. Results
showed a signiﬁcant diﬀerence in the abundance of medium and large-sized
mammals among the four habitat types: dry (χ2 =126.256, df =3, P=0.000)
and wet (χ2 =74.822, df =3, P=0.000) seasons. During the dry season, the
highest and lowest species diversity was recorded in the natural forest
(H’=2.488) and mixed plantations (H’=2.154). During the wet season,
ericaceous vegetation sheltered the highest diversity of mammalian
species (H’=2.224), while mixed plantation forests inhabited the lowest
species diversity (H’=1.788). The presence of food, cover, and water
availability were the main factors for the differences in species
diversity and abundance across the habitats. Phacochoerus africanus was
the most abundant species during the dry (16.89%) and wet (18.81%)
seasons. However, Felis caracal (0.14 during dry) and Panthera pardus
(0.36 during wet season) were the least abundant species recorded.
Occurrence of abundant species was associated with their feeding habits
and physiological adaptation. Although the study area is home to
different species of mammals, including endangered and endemics,
livestock grazing and human encroachments are evident, putting strain on
flora and fauna. Hence, conservation measures should be taken to ensure
long-term conservation of the area.
Determination of the fibrinogenolytic activity of Montivipera raddei (Raddeʼs mountain viper) venom
Authors: Atasoy Fikriye , İğci Naşit
Published: September 2022

Snake venom fibrinogenolytic enzymes have diagnostic and therapeutic value and are important for snakebite pathology. In the present study, the fibrinogenolytic activity of Montivipera raddei venom was investigated. Crude venom was incubated with human fibrinogen for different time periods at 37?C. An inhibition study was carried out using different protease inhibitors. The fibrinogenolytic activity was assessed by SDS-PAGE and fibrinogen zymography. An HPLCbased method was used to obtain confirmatory data. Montivipera raddei venom predominantly cleaved the A? chain of fibrinogen in a time-dependent manner. A very slight decrease in band intensity of the B? chain was observable after a longer incubation time. Cleavage of fibrinogen was confirmed by HPLC. Zymography revealed that the venom contained 50 and 75 kDa fibrinogenolytic enzymes. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and 1,10-phenanthroline inhibited the overall fibrinogenolytic activity, while phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) only inhibited the degradation of the B? chain. These results indicated that metalloproteinases were major fibrinogenolytic enzymes in the venom. The inhibitor study suggested the presence of serine proteinases that broke down the B? chain. With this study, the fibrinogenolytic activity of M. raddei venom was shown for the first time. The results will be useful for further isolation and characterization studies.

Published: September 2022

Carbohydrate counting is an important component of type 1 diabetes management that is taught at the time of diagnosis. We implemented and validated a nutrition quiz to assess fundamental carbohydrate counting and nutrition knowledge in newly diagnosed patients. An interactive standard assessment for newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes patients was feasible and reliable to implement for patients and caregivers, but participants with public insurance scored lower overall. This assessment may help to identify nutrition knowledge gaps and provide opportunities for timely education, and providers should place additional focus on nutrition education for patients with public insurance.

Authors: Kunin Margarita , Mini Sharon , Abu-Amer Nabil , Beckerman Pazit
Published: September 2022

Background: The diagnosis of peritonitis among peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is based on clinical presentation, dialysis effluentwhite blood cell (WBC) count, and dialysis effluent culture. Peritoneal fluid WBC count is very important in the initial diagnosis of peritonitis.The purpose of this work was to determine the optimal number of peritoneal WBCs with different clinical presentations at admissionto define PD-related peritonitis.Methods: Medical records of chronic PD patients who underwent work-up for suspected peritonitis between 2008 and 2019 were reviewedretrospectively. Results of all peritoneal WBC count tests during this period were collected. Clinical manifestations and follow-up analysis of each peritoneal WBC count were performed.Results: The peritoneal WBC count cutoff of 100/μL recommended by International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis provided specificityof only 35%. Increasing peritoneal WBC count cutoff to 150, 200, and 250/μL provided sensitivity around 98% and gradually increasingspecificity. The chi-square automatic interaction detector model of statistical analysis determined that peritoneal WBC count below230/μL combined with absence of inflammatory markers (fever, increased C-reactive protein) ruled out peritonitis with 99.8%sensitivity. Peritoneal fluid WBC count cutoff of 230/μL provided specificity of 89% and good positive and negative likelihood scoresof 8.3 and 0.03, respectively. Peritoneal fluid polymorphonuclear count has lower discriminating ability for peritonitis compared toperitoneal fluid WBC count.Conclusion: Increasing peritoneal fluid WBC count cutoff to 230/μL in suspected PD-related peritonitis could improve specificity withoutcompromising the sensitivity of the test.
Human Factor Considerations in Virtual Reality: Adequate or Inadequate?
Authors: Easa Said
Published: September 2022

Despite the continued progress in human factor (HF) considerations in virtual reality (VR), health and safety issues persist in VR applications, especially in fully immersive VR. This article reviews those issues and the recent developments to address them and discusses the adequacy of current HF considerations in VR. The four types of realities are first defined: reality, augmented reality, augmented virtual reality, and virtual reality (non-immersive, semi-immersive, and fully immersive). A brief review of the general VR applications (arts, community services, engineering, and others) is presented, followed by a more detailed review of engineering applications (industry, research, and education and training). Notable general HF issues in immersive VR are discussed, including cybersickness, hygiene, immersion injuries, and repetitive strain injuries. Manufacturer support in addressing various health and safety issues, such as in-use symptoms, post-use symptoms, repetitive strain injuries, and system alerts is highlighted. An in-depth review of the research issues related to VR is presented. Based on this study, it is concluded that significant efforts by researchers and manufacturers are still needed to address several HF issues in VR.

Economic fluctuations have recently affected the nature of accounting systems in companies, especially small medium enterprise (SMEs). Therefore, this study proposes the Agile-Adaptive Balanced Scorecard (AABSC) as an integrated tool to support and improve the Management Accounting System (MAS) in Iraqi SMEs. The main objective of this study is to explore the role of the AABSC in improving the Management Accounting System (MAS) as a response to economic fluctuations. A qualitative semistructured interview was carried out in one Iraqi SME, with four top managers from different departments. The interviews are conducted online in the Arabic (Iraqi accent) and then translated into English by a linguist expert. The data were analysed and structured using content analysis and Atlas.ti 9 software. Such qualitative analysis is divided into two main categories and four sub-levels. The objectives and advantages of using the AABSC to improve the MAS of Iraqi SMEs are also examined. The adoption of AABSC as part of MAS has assisted companies in strengthening the system. Enhanced competencies are required for staff to increase productivity and improve their decision-making, which directly contributes to improving the business environment by enhancing the relationship with customers and stakeholders.

Consideramos que las historias del pasado, como aquellas presentes en el patrimonio literario-cultural inmaterial amazónico, son importantes para el desarrollo sostenible. Incluso que a través de proyectos de innovación educativa pueden proyectar futuros posibles. Consideramos que ese pasado de intercambios, mezclas y asimilaciones culturales, concretamente entre Brasil y España, son un depósito de soluciones sociales que la ciudadanía de cada tiempo ha resuelto para ampliar sus capacidades personales y colectivas. Pero, sobre todo, consideramos desde la Universidade Federal do Amazonas en Manaus y la Universitat de València que ese pasado es muy importante para la ciudadanía de hoy, para la construcción de sus opciones de vida y para ser agentes activos de su propio desarrollo y el de su comunidad. Nuestra metodología tiene en cuenta los valores a que habitualmente atribuimos al patrimonio cultural, pero añadiéndole su contribución al desarrollo humano. Para ello, dedicamos esfuerzos colaborativos por interpretar muchas de estas referencias culturales en clave de Objetivos para el Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) y de logro de Derechos Humanos. Desde esta base nació el proyecto de Educación para el Desarrollo y la Ciudadanía Global que generamos a través de un Taller de Escritura e Ilustración Creativa en julio del 2014 y que ha ido gestionando y ramificándose en numerosas colaboraciones, acciones y jornadas en clave ODS dirigido esencialmente a cualquier miembro de la comunidad universitaria.

The article presents an overview of studies on the sociological dimension of the phenomenon of religiosity in modern society. At the moment, as experts in the field of the sociology of religion note, methodological disputes regarding the measurement of the level and degree of religiosity of the population continue quite actively. Among the approaches to studying the religiosity of the population, there are both multidimensional and one-dimensional conceptual models. Within the multidimensional approach, religiosity is represented by a set of characteristics that describe this category. At the same time, researchers who use a multidimensional approach as part of their theoretical constructions have not yet reached a consensus on exactly what indicators can be used to describe the concept of "religiosity". In most cases, the authors measure religiosity based on such characteristics as faith, rituals and practices, as well as knowledge within a particular religious doctrine. Applied domestic research is based on indicators of both religious consciousness and religious behavior in the process of determining the level and degree of religiosity of both the population as a whole and social groups in particular. Also, the phenomenon of religiosity is studied from the standpoint of subjective indicators of respondents' self-identification, their personal interpretation of their religious consciousness, and from the point of view of the level of respondents' religious activity. The issue of religious self-identification in mass surveys is still debatable and requires more careful empirical substantiation in further research.
RELAÇÃO ESCOLA-FAMÍLIA NA PERCEPÇÃO DE EDUCADORES-FORMADORES E COORDENADORES PEDAGÓGICOS DA EDUCAÇÃO INFANTIL DE UMA REDE MUNICIPAL DE ENSINO
Authors: Argenti Perez Marcia Cristina , De Souza Araújo Caroline
Published: September 2022

Sendo escola e família instituições com formas de ensino diferentes, porém com objetivos semelhantes no que diz respeito ao desenvolvimento da criança, nota-se a necessidade de aproximação entre elas. O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar as percepções de educadores-formadores e coordenadores pedagógicos da educação infantil de uma rede municipal de ensino acerca das funções da família e sobre a importância da relação escola-família. Para isso, contou com a aplicação de questionários em um grupo de estudos e a análise desses dados com base no conceito de unidades significativas da Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin (2016). Os resultados nos mostram que, apesar de haver avanços na compreensão da importância da relação, ainda há alguns pontos a serem enfrentados em prol da organização das práticas pedagógicas com as crianças em ambas as instituições. Além disso, percebe-se a necessidade de aproximação também entre os níveis da educação dentro da própria rede de ensino para que alinhem suas similaridades, amenizando a forte ruptura de um nível para outro e a culpabilização das fragilidades formativas da criança direcionadas ao grupo familiar ou ao outro nível de escolarização frequentado.

Art and Nation Building in Meiji Japan : The Works and Ethos of Takamura Kōun
Authors:   The Korean Association For Japanese History, Oh Youn-Jung
Published: September 2022

With the Meiji Restoration, Takamura Kōun(1852∼1934), a craftsman specializing in carving Buddhist icons, lost his traditional job and got new ones. Instead of Buddhist icon commissions, which decreased because of Haibutsu kishaku(literally “abolish Buddhism and destroy Shākyamuni”), Kōun produced crafts for export and monuments of historical heroes. “Old Monkey,” the first Meiji wooden work designated as an important cultural property, was carved by Kōun to submit it to the World’s Columbian Exposition in 1893 in Chicago and the two most famous modern Japanese monuments, the “Kusunoki Masashige Statue” in front of the Imperial Palace and the “Saigō Takamori Statue” in Ueno Park, were produced under the direction of Kōun. Kōun’s transformation from ‘craftsman’ to ‘sculptor’ was closely intertwined with the Meiji government’s art administration, which used art as a tool for “Shokusan Kōgyō”(encouragement of new industry) and an apparatus for the construction of national identity and reinforcement of nationalism. However, Kōun’s son, Takamura Kōtarō(1883-1956) as a representative modernist of the Taishō era, could not accept Kōun’s work as art. To Kōtarō, strongly influenced by the art theory of modernism asserting that art should be the self-expression of autonomous individuals, Kōun seemed a figure lacking self-consciousness as an artist and an anachronism living in the modern era with a craftsman’s ethos. This article explores the ways in which the craftsman’s ethos of Kōun, which has been considered as a limitation for him and the legacy of the old days, worked for the production of “art for the nation” that the new era of Meiji required. By examining how Meiji artist Kōun, distinguished from Edo craftsmen and Taishō modernists, used his skills for the nation and succeeded in life and career, I explore the relationship between nation-building and art in Meiji Japan.

This qualitative study explores the lived experiences of Shona/Ndebele inter-tribal families in England, the challenges they face, and their responses to these. The findings show that the atrocities of the Gukurahundi continue to cast their shadow on some of these families. Disapproval of the marriage from one or both sides of the couple's parents leads to the couple's parents' subsequent lack of interest in the children born in these families. This is then extended to the wider family. Gender imbalances, culture shock and communication difficulties were other challenges faced by such couples. Couples learned to compromise and bring their cultures together, for example through cooking. The three-legged pot' metaphor was used by older women to teach younger, mainly Ndebele, women to accept male infidelity. This study will inform practitioners working with such couples as well as other mixed couples, especially those originating from areas of conflict.
