The North-Arctic Territories of the Far East: Influence of Infrastructure Factors on the Transformation of the Region’s Spatial Development
Authors: Krasnopolski B. H. ,   Economic Research Institute of Far Eastern Branch of RAS
Published: July 2024

The complex influence of infrastructure factors on the transformation of spatial development of various regions, including the North-Arctic, is very important but understudied. Theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of infrastructure do not correspond to its backbone nature and role in economic development. The paper aims to identify characteristics and causes of the ongoing spatial and economic transformations and determine their influence on socio-economic development and formation of integrated economic structures of Northern and Arctic territories. The research considers both the classic Arctic regions and high-latitude Far North regions, which are closely integrated in natural, ecological and socio-economic terms. To this end, theories of spatial economics, infrastructure and system-evolutionary analysis, as well as the authors’ relevant theoretical and methodological approaches are utilised. Additionally, the paper uses a hypothetical approach and indirect assessment methods based on the analysis of strategic studies and documents on the long-term development of the studied territories. As a result, the peculiarities of the ongoing transformations in this zone were revealed, associated with the advanced development of exogenous elements of critical infrastructure and formation of a special Northeastern mesoregion. This new integrated formation is an intermediate, median structure between the primary North-Arctic territories (microregions) and the Far East macroregion. This formation can significantly strengthen the economic and geostrategic stability of these regions in a fairly short time. It is necessary to further study the described problem based on interdisciplinary research within the framework of a target scientific and applied programme with the participation of natural and social science experts.

Published: July 2024

To understand current and predict future migration, it is necessary to consider historical trends in migration connectivity of important Arctic regions with other constituent entities of Russia. The article aims to examine migration links between the Arctic and other regions using data from the All-Russian population censuses and statistics on interregional migration of the Federal State Statistics Service for 2007–2010 and 2017–2021. The conducted analysis revealed a decrease in migration mobility of the population, especially in the Russian Arctic. Eight out of nine Arctic regions are characterised by a negative net migration. To describe population localisation, a three-component model was proposed: centres of gravity, regions with independence of mutual localisation, and regions with normal localisation. This model is valid for all Russian regions; additionally, there is a direct connection between in – and out-migration. Analysis of the variation of localisation coefficients showed that migration flows from the Arctic regions have already formed, and incoming flows are more dynamic. The paper proposed a new approach to measuring the stability of migration flows over time based on assessing the coefficient of variation. The regions of the Russian Arctic were classified according to the stability of migration flows: regions with stable migration flows, with mobile migration flows and with unstable migration flows. Statistical analysis of such stability confirmed their stabilisation during the studied period. A hypothesis about the influence of the remoteness of regions on the stability of migration flows was tested, the dependence was observed only within 2 thousand kilometres between regional capitals. The findings present trends of lifelong and long-term migration between the Arctic and other Russian regions and outline the main strategic management directions in the field of interregional migration.
Beyond Normality: Features of the Structure of Economic Activity in Arctic Cities and Settlements
Authors: Zamyatina N. Yu. ,   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Kulchitsky Yu. V. ,   HSE University,   HSE University
Published: July 2024

High transportation costs and the narrowness of the local market limit the development of Arctic cities, especially remote ones. However, specific demand for unique goods and services (including the so-called development services) and production of goods and services that are impractical/impossible to deliver from more southern areas (especially in the early stages of development) due to transport isolation contribute to the economic diversification of Arctic cities. The article aims to identify special mechanisms for the formation of economic activity in remote settlements. The study solves the following tasks: 1) theoretical substantiation of economic development factors in Arctic cities; 2) selection of indicators to assess the diversity of economic activities in remote settlements of the Russian Arctic; 3) analysis of the obtained results. The variety of economic activities of small settlements depends on the distance to the nearest larger settlement. Some remote towns and villages of Yakutia, Chukotka, etc., with a population of about 5,000 inhabitants (or even less) are characterised by a moderately increased diversity of economic activities in terms of both the total number of enterprises and organisations per 1,000 inhabitants and the number of types of economic activity (OKVED codes) per 1,000 inhabitants. According to the study, small settlements in remote conditions perform urban functions typical of larger cities in normal conditions, acting as economic and socio-cultural centres of the surrounding areas, in fact, as the base settlements of the Arctic. The expansion of the functions of small remote settlements plays an important role in the development of the urban network of the Arctic and the North. The findings can be used to create public policy measures in relation to the base settlements of the Russian Arctic.
WINTERING STELLER'S SEA EAGLES (HALIAEETUS PELAGICUS) IN KAMCHATKA AND NORTHERN KURIL ISLANDS UNDER THE ANTHROPOGENIC CONDITIONS
Authors: Lobkov E.G. ,   Kamchatka State Technical University
Published: July 2024

In winter, in Kamchatka and Northern Kuril Islands (Paramushir Island) Steller's Sea eagles regularly patrol fishing vessels near marine harbors and control their unloading process to be able to eat the discarded and injured fish, other seafood and food household wastes from the ships. They also willingly use landfills and industrial water discharges as habitats in case food wastes are present there. Besides, in Kamchatka Steller's Sea eagles use artificial structures (in particular, power transmission towers) as roost sites, can pick up animals hit by cars on the roads as prey and land on the snow-free concrete surface of the runway at the airport (Yelizovo city). This is similar to the well-known situation for the wintering conditions of Sea eagles from Japan, and the difference is that the larger portion of the local winter population of Sea eagles winters in Hokkaido under the anthropogenic conditions, and a smaller portion winters in Kamchatka.

In this paper, we present results of the biochemical analysis of fresh garden strawberries cultivated under conditions of the south Amur region. The largest weight of 100 berries was found in the varieties Rumba, Mara de Bois and Elvira. The maximum acid content was registered in varieties Elvira and Mara de Bois. The highest content of ascorbic acid was found in varieties Deroyal, Festivalnaya, and Mara de Bois. The varieties Rumba, Elvira and Ostara hadthe highest accumulation of sugars. The berries of varieties Rumba, Ostara, and Florence, which showed the highest sugar-acid ratio (57.3; 17.31; 61.8, respectively), had a harmonious taste. Based on dry matter content, varieties Florence and Elvira can be selected, and based on ash content, varieties Florence and Elegance can be selected. The highest content of anthocyanins was found in berries of varieties Deroyal and Elvira. For cultivation in the south Amur region, we proposeto consider the short-day varieties Rumba and Elvira as the most promising.
Kant e Itard y la “educación” de un “niño salvaje”
Authors: Patarroyo-Rodriguez Yeny Marcela
Published: July 2024

Este artículo es una reflexión que surge del análisis realizado en la tesis presentada para obtener el título de Magíster en Educación de la Universidad Pedagógica Nacional de Colombia. En 1799, en Francia, un niño de 11 años fue encontrado en estado salvaje, las personas que lo hallaron se refirieron a él como “niño salvaje” para luego llamarlo “Víctor”. Jean Itard conoce a este “niño salvaje” e intenta educarlo, ya que, a diferencia de los académicos de la época que especulaban que el niño era un idiota sin remedio, Itard reconoce en Víctor a un niño normal, que, por eventualidades desconocidas, no había tenido contacto con otros humanos. Por la misma época se publica el Tratado de Pedagogía de Kant, en el que algunas posturas coinciden con las de Itard: 1) ambos destacan que la socialización temprana es condición necesaria para la concepción de la racionalidad y posteriormente de la moralidad en un individuo; 2) al igual que Kant, Itard rechaza la existencia de “ideas innatas” 3) los dos piensan que el cuidado, la disciplina y la instrucción son necesarios en la educación del sujeto (Kant como idea, Itard como práctica).
Tres críticas a Kant y sus válvulas de escape para no repetir Auschwitz
Authors: Vallejo-Merino Isabel Cristina
Published: July 2024

Este artículo de reflexión, el cual se deriva de una investigación, hace alusión a la teoría kantiana para problematizar aquellos elementos que podrían dar lugar a la repetición de prácticas excluyentes como las acontecidas en Auschwitz. De esta forma, se exponen las ideas de Kant que ayudarían a evitar este tipo de genocidios, las cuales se abordarán a partir de tres críticas basadas en el libro El Sueño de Eichmann de Michel Onfray. Primero, se tratará la crítica que se le hace al filósofo de promover la idea de la “obediencia a ciegas” y su negativa al derecho de rebelión. En respuesta, se sostiene que, si bien el mandato ético implica el acatamiento a las leyes, estas están inspiradas en una forma de gobierno republicana y no en el marco de un totalitarismo, razón por la que la educación en Kant ha de estar orientada hacia el cultivo de la razón y la crítica. Segundo, se muestra aquella crítica, según la cual, la dignidad en un sentido kantiano no es inalienable y que, antes bien, ha justificado prácticas excluyentes derivadas en exterminios. Ante este punto, se sustentará que dicha dignidad no se viste de clase social y se puede potenciar con la educación. Finalmente, está la crítica a la “idea alejada de la realidad” que tiene Kant. Como válvula de escape, se plantea la importancia de una formación sobre lo bueno, lo bello y lo verdadero. Se concluye que Kant sigue vigente para reflexionar pedagógicamente sobre problemas contemporáneos como la posible repetición de Auschwitz.
¿“Formación integral”? Resemantización y vínculo con el pensamiento crítico
Authors: Hernández-Rodríguez Juan Camilo , Castaño-Trujillo Cárol Viviana , Quiñones-Bermúdez Sebastián , Marín-Cardona Pablo Felipe
Published: July 2024

En las últimas décadas ha sido común escuchar el término “formación integral” en los entornos escolares e institucionales. Sin embargo, las confusiones, ambigüedades y el uso indiscriminado de dicho concepto han generado una trivialización de este. Por ello, en el presente artículo de reflexión se realiza una exposición acerca de cómo se ha venido entendiendo la formación integral y cómo debería asumirse según su etimología y las teorías de las ciencias de la educación. Posteriormente, se propone relacionar el concepto de “formación integral” con algunos modelos de pensamiento crítico, al igual que exponer su articulación curricular y funciones misionales de la formación universitaria.
Reformas curriculares e as contribuições antropológicas na formação de pedagogas no Brasil
Authors: Penteado Dourado Ivan
Published: July 2024

Em cada movimento de reforma curricular realizado no interior dos cursos de Pedagogia, é perceptível um conjunto de dificuldades em apontar critérios objetivos para definir os aspectos fundamentais na formação dos pedagogos. A presente pesquisa de ordem teórica e bibliográfica analisa as transformações propostas em documentos que resultaram em reformas curriculares brasileiras, resgatando as principais contribuições dos conhecimentos antropológicos na formação de pedagogos e pedagogas no Brasil. Questões que a antropologia como ciência social contribuiu ao longo da sua história serão aqui recuperadas e apresentadas com o objetivo de fornecer critérios claros, científicos e objetivos, relativos à importância de inclusão da referida disciplina nos currículos dos cursos de Pedagogia. Como principais conclusões, identificamos um conjunto de questões que corroboraram para a sua inclusão e permanência como disciplina, por todo o seu legado nas discussões específicas sobre cultura, diversidade, metodologia de pesquisa e suas discussões sobre infância, o que nos permitiu identificar os inúmeros desdobramentos fundamentais na reflexão sobre as práticas pedagógicas e a possibilidade de se desdobrarem em novas pesquisas no campo da Antropologia da Educação.
Investigación-formaciónacción: descubriendo la experiencia pedagógica del Ser docente
Authors: Ramírez-Cabanzo Ana Brizet
Published: July 2024

Este artículo deriva de los resultados de la investigación “Diá-Logos Maestros, encuentros de experiencia desde la pedagogía”,[1] en la cual se analizan tanto los estigmas alrededor del rol del educador infantil, como el debilitamiento de su formación pedagógica. A partir de la perspectiva metodológica de la investigación-formación-acción se producen encuentros dialógicos con maestros en ejercicio para adelantar procesos de sistematización de sus experiencias. Los principales resultados refieren el posicionamiento de la pedagogía como sustrato de la experiencia del ser maestra/o, el papel de las narrativas en la problematización de las prácticas pedagógicas, y cómo la investigación e innovación pedagógica se constituyen en trayectos de emancipación intelectual. Dentro de las conclusiones se destacan las elaboraciones epistemológicas y conceptuales alcanzadas por los estudiantes para identificar los lugares de enunciación de las experiencias pedagógicas en sus distintos modos de documentación textual; la reflexividad horizontal y colectiva como soporte del saber pedagógico que se genera a través de las narrativas de la acción educativa al interactuar como “par espejo”; y la aproximación a la comprensión de nociones propias del oficio docente como son experiencia, saber y práctica pedagógica. En su conjunto, estos hallazgos les permiten acercarse a los debates inherentes a su profesión, y redimensionar críticamente su compromiso ético-político, social y cultural como educadores de las nuevas generaciones teniendo en cuenta las realidades de país en este tiempo presente.

Authors: Orellana-Román Irene , Ruiz-Garzón Francisca
Published: July 2024

Una de las consecuencias del comportamiento disruptivo en las aulas es la limitación para el desempeño docente y uno de los mayores problemas de la convivencia escolar, por lo que su manejo permite mejorar la calidad de la enseñanza y la función del profesorado. Este artículo de investigación pretende responder a las preguntas ¿Saben los docentes qué es la conducta disruptiva? ¿Qué conocimientos tienen acerca de la misma? De esta manera, podremos conocer si los docentes precisan o no formación. Este estudio forma parte de una investigación más amplia cuya finalidad es el diseño de un plan de intervención formativo para los docentes. En esta parte del estudio nos planteamos el objetivo de describir los conocimientos que tiene el profesorado de Secundaria sobre la conducta disruptiva. Esta investigación se ha abordado desde el paradigma cualitativo, diseñando un estudio descriptivo a partir de la entrevista semiestructurada como instrumento para la recogida de datos. Parte de los resultados obtenidos mostraron dos variables más seleccionadas por los docentes como causantes de conductas disruptivas son las características familiares y personales, así como que las consecuencias afectan en mayor medida a la labor del profesorado, considerándose este colectivo como el más perjudicado por las conductas disruptivas en el aula frente al perjuicio que ocasiona en el alumnado.

Published: July 2024

O consumo de plantas alimentícias cultivadas em quintais residenciais urbanos pode contribuir para enriquecer a alimentação de famílias, contribuindo com a Segurança Alimentar Nutricional (SAN). Esta pesquisa investigou a presença de Plantas Alimentícias Não Convencionais (PANC) presentes em quintais residenciais, seu respectivo consumo e potencial contribuição para a SAN. O estudo ocorreu no município de Registro, SP, localizado na região do Vale do Ribeira, Estado de São Paulo, nos meses de fevereiro e março de 2023. Por meio da metodologia “Bola de Neve”, 20 residências foram estudadas. Para a escolha das residências foi seguido o Índice Paulista de Vulnerabilidade Social (IPVS) do município. Foi aplicado dois instrumentos de pesquisa, um roteiro semiestruturado, o qual direcionou as entrevistas gravadas e um instrumento de mensuração da insegurança alimentar. Os resultados demonstram que as plantas presentes nos quintais estudados e consumidas na alimentação das famílias são: ora-pro-nóbis (OPN), malvarisco, alfavaca-do-mato, cúrcuma e nabutitana. Todas elas com valor nutricional. No entanto, algumas PANC que podem contribuir com a qualidade da dieta, não são utilizadas pelas famílias, como: caruru, major-gomes, almeirão-roxo, aranto e inhame. Conclui-se que diagnósticos de plantas alimentícias em quintais residenciais urbanos são importantes fontes de informação para promoção de educação alimentar e nutricional.
Instagram para figurar, TikTok para entretenerse: caracterización de las redes sociales como plataformas publicitarias entre los menores
Authors: Zozaya-Durazo Luisa , Feijoo Beatriz , Sádaba-Chalezquer Charo
Published: July 2024

De acuerdo con McLuhan sobre la influencia del medio en la apreciación del mensaje, se analizó la percepción que tienen los menores de las redes sociales como contenedores publicitarios. Se planteó una perspectiva cualitativa mediante la realización de 12 grupos focales en los que participaron 62 menores de toda España. Entre los principales hallazgos, los entrevistados asocian distintas características a cada red social, buscando un tipo de input distinto dependiendo en qué plataforma se encuentren: mientras que en TikTok se procura diversión y aprendizaje (bailes y tutoriales), Instagram se utiliza para la exhibición y para chatear con personas recién conocidas. YouTube queda reservada para el mundo de los videojuegos, Facebook se califica como una red social de gente mayor y WhatsApp, una fuente de cotilleos y bulos. Estos resultados proporcionan información importante para marcas, anunciantes y gestores con el fin de aumentar la eficacia de la planificación de la publicidad digital.
Determining the Meat Consumption Preferences of Tourists in the Kars Province
Authors: Aksoy Adem , Uzundumlu Ahmet Semih
Published: July 2024

This study aimed to understand the meat consumption preferences of local people and tourists in Kars, which is known for its high-goose production and cultural and historical tourism. The AHP method was used to analyze the data, with 250 consumers interviewed through proportional sampling. Fish was the top preferred meat type for 29.18% of visitors, followed by chicken meat (26.41%), red meat (24.64%), and goose meat (19.77%). The most important criteria for meat consumption in Kars were taste (27.08%), price (23.97%), ease of transportation (19.47%), nutritional content (18.18%), and smell (12.20%). In terms of taste, consumers prefer fish as their first choice, followed by goose meat as their second choice. In terms of affordability, chicken and fish are the first choices, followed by fish. They prefer fish and goose meat for their nutritional and safety value. In terms of smell, fish and goose meat are among the most important choices. The demand for organic fish with higher nutritional value from Çıldır Lake is higher than other types of meat. The affordability of chicken and fish also influences consumers' preferences for these meat types. However, loyalty to red meat and chicken remains low in terms of nutrition and safety. To enhance the economic conditions for producers, consumers, and restaurants, it is crucial to streamline the availability of fish, enhance trust and perception of the nutritional value of red and white meat, and make goose meat more cost-effective. This will lead to increased consumption of meat products and improved service opportunities.
Metadichol® induced expression of Sirtuin family 1-7 in somatic and cancer cells
Authors: Raghavan P R
Published: July 2024

The Sirtuins 1-7 family and Klotho (KL), Forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1), telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), tumor suppressor p53 (TP53) and growth differentiation factor 11 (GDF11) regulate aging, metabolism, and DNA repair and are involved in age-related diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Seven sirtuin genes in humans encode seven sirtuin enzymes (SIRT1–7), each of which has unique functions and subcellular locations. Sirtuins are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent protein deacetylases that play a significant role in physiological processes such as energy metabolism, stress responses, DNA repair, and gene expression and are potential targets for age-related diseases such as type 2 diabetes, inflammatory diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders. They also play a role in cancer by regulating critical cellular processes such as DNA repair and energy metabolism. Other genes, such as Klotho (KL), Forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1), telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), tumor suppressor p53 (TP53) and growth differentiation factor 11 (GDF11), also regulate aging, metabolism, and DNA repair and are involved in age-related diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. In addition, these proteins are closely related to sirtuins. A single molecule that can activate these five genes and sirtuin genes is challenging because each isoform has a unique structure, substrate, and regulatory mechanism. Most known sirtuin activators are specific for Sirtuin 1, the most studied isoform of the sirtuin family. This study was initiated based on previous work in which we showed that metadichol can express all nuclear receptors if it is possible to express all seven sirtuin families 1-7 using metadichol as a small molecule inducer. Herein, we report that at concentrations ranging from 1 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL, Metadichol®, a nanoemulsion of long-chain alcohols, induced the expression of the human Sirtuin 1-7 gene in dermal fibroblasts and a variety of cancer cells in a concentration-dependent manner and that KL, GDF11, telomerase, Foxo1 and P53 could have significant beneficial effects on mitigating age-related diseases. The results were quantified by using qRT‒PCR, and proteins were characterized using western blot techniques. The experimental procedure used is unique in that it did not involve the use of viruses or other gene insertion technique.

Authors: Herrera Roberto , Ledesma José , Rojas Héctor , Sanz Francisco , Herrera Juan , Estramiana Ariel , Bottan Juan
Published: July 2024

Background: Imaging systems placed into the operating theatre is becoming a standard practice in glioma resection surgery. Aim: To evaluate feasibility, safety, and utility of an intraoperative open low-field magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) to assess the extent of glioma resection. Methods: Study population sample included 28 patients undergoing first time surgical resection for brain gliomas. All patients underwent preoperative and postoperative high-field MRI scans, and one to four intraoperative MRI acquisitions, using a side-opening 0.25 T MRI system. Pre- and postoperative MRI scans were assessed to measure volumetric changes and the extent of resection. Surgical timing was also registered. Results: n=28 patients (19 men and 9 women, range: 6 - 71 years), underwent microsurgical resection of brain glioma for the first time (18 high-grade and 10 low-grade gliomas). Postoperative MRI indicated that gross total resection (>99%) was achieved in 23/28 (82%), subtotal resection (90-99%) in 4/28 (14%) patients; in the latter, residual tumor volume ranges between 0.5 and 8.2 cm3; and partial resection (<90%) in 1/28 (4%). Three patients (10.7%) experienced worsening of neurological symptoms (only one permanent). The average time required for each imaging session was 12 minutes. Conclusion and Relevance: Intraoperative low-field MRI-guided resections maximizes the extent of glioma resections, without significant interferences with surgical and anesthesiologic procedures and without excessive prolongation of the surgery, playing a relevant role in patient survival and quality of life.

Istanbul Local Government Policy on Managing Syrian Refugees Integration
Authors: Muttaqien Audi Izzat , Jatmika Sidik
Published: July 2024

The integration of Turkish refugees is a policy of harmonizing refugees into society, and the Istanbul local government tries to implement policies in the same direction as the Turkish Central Government. This article examines the policies and role of the Istanbul government in handling Syrian refugees in the Istanbul area in refugee integration. Turkey has been one of the largest recipients and donors of aid for Syrian refugees. Meanwhile, Istanbul has been a place where many migrants live, especially Syrian refugees. This research uses qualitative methods by collecting data through literature studies and descriptive data analysis. The article uses the cosmopolitanism theory to explain how the Istanbul government's policy in accepting refugee arrivals and its intention to help refugees are based on humanitarian principles. The findings showed that the lack of clarity in the Turkish government's general policy, which does not provide general standards and procedures for refugee integration, caused the Istanbul local government to adopt adaptive policies. Health and education are still the main challenges constrained by resources and funds. The assistance the Istanbul government provides Syrian refugees is motivated by humanitarian reasons, where the Istanbul government views Syrian refugees as human beings with the same rights as other Turkish citizens through a cosmopolitanism approach.

Authors: Saha Somesh , Das Chinmoy , Dutta Swapnaneel
Published: July 2024

The study's primary objective is to assess the effectiveness of this accelerated approach in achieving successful early correction of clubfoot deformity and improving the overall quality of life for these patients

This is a prospective based hospital study where 50 patients (70 foot) taken into consideration. 50 patients randomised in two groups .one of which treated with conventional ponseti casting and other with accelerated ponseti casting.

The mean days of plaster duration in accelerated casting group was 19.25 days as compared to 45.25 days in standard casting group (statistically significant, p<0.001). Also, Pirani score at the end of last follow up was comparable in both the groups. Tenotomy rate was slightly higher in accelerated casting group (88%) as compared to standard group (80%) which may be attributed to higher initial Pirani score in former (5.5) as compared to later (5.0).

Clubfoot is socially stigmatized in underdeveloped nations; the early and optimistic outcome of the accelerated Ponseti casting procedure has a profound effect on parents as well as the orthopaedic surgeon treating them. The total length of the Ponseti casting treatment has been significantly shortened by the accelerated method without any complications.

The Effect of Potassium Humate and a Humic Preparation “Bio-Don” on the Nitrogen Regime of the Calcic Chernozem under the Peas
Authors: Kartashev Semyon S. , Bezuglova Olga S.
Published: July 2024

The article presents the results of short-term field experience for 2021-2023. Experience is laid down in the hospital of agricultural chemistry and plant protection FSBSI “FRARC”. The effect of the use of potassium humate and the humic preparation “Bio-Don” on the content of mobile nitrogen forms in the Calcic Chernozem in the cultivation of the pea Alliance (Pisum sativum L.) was studied. The experience scheme included options using mineral fertilizer (Azofoska 40:40:40) and without its use. Humic preparations were used in the phase of forming beans foliric, both together with insecticide and without it. It was established that the use of potassium humate shows a positive tendency to accumulate nitrate nitrogen in the Calcic Chernozem. The use of the “BIO-Don” humic preparation per year with an increased amount of precipitation has led to a decrease in the N-NO3 content, which may be associated with the migration of this form of nitrogen down into the subsoil horizon. The use of humic stimulants affected by the forms of ammonium nitrogen, which is available to plants, practically did not affect.

Fenomena Penggunaan Cadar di Kalangan Pemudi Muslimah Banjarmasin: Identitas Sosial di Tengah Arus Tren Mode Berpakaian
Authors: Abdillah Muhammad Torieq , Rahmattika Nadia
Published: July 2024

The phenomenon of using the veil among Muslim youth Banjarmasin has pretty much been found since 2016. This study aims to determine the reasons and motivations, as well as the meaning of hijrah and fashion trends in dress, to participate in affecting young Muslim Banjarmasin in using the veil. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with field studies. The results of this study indicate that the reasons and motivations are based on a strong desire from oneself and the influence of a supportive environment and also because there is a figure who is used as a role model. Then, there are different meanings in mentioning whether to use the veil can be said to emigrate with opinions that are equally strong between mentioning part of the hijrah and not. Finally, wearing a face veil is not a fashion trend because wearing a face veil is part of the shari’a, as the opinion of the Shafi’i school. Fenomena menggunakan cadar di kalangan pemudi muslimah Banjarmasin cukup banyak ditemukan sejak 2016. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui alasan dan motivasi serta makna hijrah dan tren mode berpakaian turut serta mempengaruhi pemuda muslimah Banjarmasin dalam menggunakan cadar. Metode penelitian yang digunakan ialah kualitatif deskriptif dengan studi lapangan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa alasan dan motivasi didasari oleh keinginan kuat dari diri sendiri serta adanya pengaruh lingkungan yang mendukung dan juga karena ada sosok yang dijadikan panutan. Lalu, adanya pemaknaan yang berbeda-beda dalam menyebutkan apakah menggunakan cadar dapat dikatakan berhijrah dengan pendapat yang sama-sama kuat antara menyebutkan bagian dari hijrah dan bukan. Terakhir, menggunakan cadar bukan termasuk tren mode berpakaian karena menggunakan cadar bagian dari syariat sebagaimana pendapat dari mazhab Syafi’i.
Redefinition Of The Nasakh In The Modern Era (Study Of Zahrah Al-Tafâsîr By Abu Zahrah)
Authors: Idris Mhd
Published: July 2024

The discourse on the concept of nâsikh mansûkh is still controversial and still hot to talk about. This has become a prolonged polemic among scholars until now. The majority of scholars think that there are mansukh verses in the Qur'an. However, some scholars reject the textual concept of verses in the Qur'an. Among them is Abu Zahrah who emphasized that there is not a single verse in the Al-Qur'an that is transcribed. Therefore this research aims to find out Abu Zahrah's views and methods in understanding verses that are considered mansûkh by the majority of scholars and how it is applied in interpreting these verses in Zahrah al-Tafâsîr's book of Tafsir. This research is library research. The primary source of this research is the book Zahrah al-Tafâsîr by Abu Zahrah and related studies as secondary sources. The approach used in this research is the science of interpretation approach and the character study approach. Meanwhile, to process and analyze the data in this study, the content analysis method was used. The results of this study indicate that Abu Zahrah is one of the modern scholars who deny the existence of texts on verses of the Qur'an. The method used to complete the verses that appear contradictory is the al-taufiq (compromising) method. One of the forms among the texts that appear to be contradictory outwardly applies specifically, while the other applies in general so that the special one is the general one. The second form is interpreting one of the texts when meeting other arguments that support its interpretation. This is evidenced in interpreting the verses considered mansukhby the majority of scholars.

Authors: Nalbant Merve , Çetin Emine
Published: July 2024

Aim: Hypertension (HT), together with metabolic dysfunctions and insulin resistance (IR) in its pathophysiology, is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Identifying IR early could enhance HT management, especially in RA patients, where HT prevalence is elevated. The study aimed to assess metabolic indices, particularly the METS-IR, as predictors of HT in RA patients.
Material and Methods: This retrospective, cross-sectional study investigated the association between RA, IR, and HT in 80 RA patients and 80 age- and sex-matched controls. Patients with diabetes, pre-diabetes, or other conditions affecting insulin sensitivity were excluded, as were those on glucose-metabolism-affecting medications except low-dose glucocorticoids (

Background: Plant nutrient deficiency is the major challenge in agriculture results in lower crop yield and quality. This may lower the farmer’s income by reducing marketable value. In other hand, eating nutrient dense vegetables is the most cost effective strategy to combat malnutrition. The efficiency of inorganic micronutrients applied into soils is low as they become easily fixed to soil particles. Hence, exogenous application of nutrients is an effective option to enhance plant nutrient use efficiency. Methods: This study was conducted at SRM College of Agricultural Sciences, Chengalpattu, Tamil Nadu during 2022-2023 to alleviate nutrient insufficiency challenges in bhendi variety Senora by using Randomized block design with seven different treatments viz., T1- Control, T2- Nutrient consortia 1 (N + K + B + Fe+ Mn + Zn @ 1% ), T3- Nutrient consortia 2 (N + K + Fe+ Cu + B @ 1%), T4- Nutrient consortia 3 (N + K + Mg + B + Fe + Zn @ 1%), T5- Nutrient consortia 4 (T2 + NAA + SA@ 1%), T6- Nutrient consortia 5 (T3 + NAA + SA @ 1%), T7- Nutrient consortia 6 (T4 + NAA + SA @ 1%), sprayed at 30, 45 and 60 days after sowing. Result: Various physiological, biochemical, yield and quality parameters were measured to evaluate the effects of Nutrient consortia. The results of field experiment strongly improved that the eight biochemical parameters viz., chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll content, chlorophyll a/b ratio, chlorophyll stability index, leaf soluble protein, lipid peroxidation by melondialdehyde and proline content. The yield and quality traits such as number of fruits per plant, total fruit yield, total phenolics and total antioxidants activity were significantly increased through application of Nutrient consortia 6 followed by Nutrient consortia 4. So this can be used as yield and quality enhancer formulation of bhendi crops.
Are Differences Evident in the Ways Boys and Girls Appraise and Interpret Their Traumatic Experiences? A Qualitative Analysis of Youth Trauma Narratives
Authors: Ascienzo Sarah , Sprang Ginny , Royse David
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this study was to explore potential similarities and differences in the ways boys and girls appraise and interpret their traumatic experiences, and better understand how gender roles, performance, and socialization processes may impact trauma experiences, appraisals, and narratives within the context of trauma-focused treatment. We used thematic analysis to analyze the trauma narratives of youth (N= 16) ages 8–16 who had experienced multiple types (M= 5.38) of child maltreatment and who were receiving Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address clinically elevated posttraumatic stress symptoms. Four themes emerged: variations in the content of negative cognitions, differences in relational emotion, adoption of socially prescribed gender roles, and symptom differences. Although many similarities existed in youth’s trauma narratives, differences emerged that point to the importance of social context and the ways gender role expectations and socialization processes influence youth’s appraisal of and responses to traumatic events. Findings indicate the importance of considering distress tolerance, relational emotion, gender identity development, and role socialization within the treatment milieu.

Published: July 2024

Cervical cancer is one of the most important types of cancer that is caused by the Human Papilloma Virus and affects women. HPV is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases among young women and men. This study aimed to compare the knowledge of male and female university students studying in the field of health about cervical cancer, HPV infection, and their awareness of HPV vaccine. A cross-sectional questionnaire was used, which was appropriate for both male and female students separately. A total of 100 university students attending a foundation university were asked to fill out a questionnaire by taking a consent form. It was observed that sexually transmitted diseases, HPV, HPV vaccine, cervical cancer and risk factors, and PAP smear awareness were not very high. These findings showed that it is important to provide education to both male and female university students to increase their awareness about cervical cancer, risk factors, diagnosis and treatment methods, and the HPV vaccine.

This study presents a comprehensive investigation into the design and structural analysis of lightweight chassis for electric vehicles. A chassis needs to be able to withstand twist, shock, vibration, and other stresses caused by acceleration, braking, road condition, and shock initiated by other parts of a vehicle. It should carry a maximum load under all operating conditions. Two materials, 304L steel, and Ti-6AL-4V alloy were evaluated, with parameters such as total deformation, equivalent stress, and equivalent elastic strain under consideration. The outcome of the Finite Element Analysis revealed that Ti-6AL-4V can withstand higher stresses than 304L Steel. By investigating the static behaviors of the chassis under static loading due to weight and overload conditions, Ti-6AL-4V was chosen as a suitable replacement for a 304L Steel chassis.
Modernidades dissonantes
Authors: Alencar Ana Caroline Matias
Published: July 2024

O presente artigo pretende recompor o quadro multifacetado das modernidades artísticas emergidas nas primeiras décadas do século XX, no cenário cultural brasileiro, tomando, para tanto, como linha diretiva o exame de alguns aspectos do projeto estético-musical delineado por Heitor Villa-Lobos (1887-1959). Nesse sentido, os “afrotropos” – conceito formulado por Huey Copeland –, ficcionalizados pelo compositor, e por ele convertidos em signos de uma suposta “brasilidade musical”, serão contrastados com o contexto de consolidação da “Pequena África” carioca, convertida naqueles anos em epicentro de modernidades alternativas potencialmente capazes de expandir, para além das fronteiras do modernismo paulista, a reflexão acerca dos modernismos artísticos atuantes no país.
