Translation Research in Practice: An Introduction
Authors: Titler Marita
Published: August 2021

Translation science is a relatively young area of investigation that is rapidly growing. Although a number of healthcare practices have an evidence-base to guide care delivery, their use is not a part of routine practice. The gap between the availability of evidence-based practice (EBP) recommendations and application to improve patient care and population health is linked to poor health outcomes. Translation science, also known as implementation science, is testing implementation interventions to improve uptake and use of evidence to improve patient outcomes and population health. It also helps clarify what implementation strategies work for whom, in what settings, and why. This scientific field emerged to investigate which implementation strategies work to promote use of EBPs, and uncover the mechanisms by which they work. Advancements in translation science can expedite and sustain the successful integration of evidence in practice to improve care delivery, population health, and health outcomes. This article offers an introductory overview of translation science and addresses issues in this field of science such as variation in terminology; theories and models; implementation strategies; and context and implementation related to EBPs.

Financial resources and junior secondary school students’ academic performance in Cross River State, Nigeria
Authors: Ofem Wokasor Eni , Akeke Mercy Nkiruka Godwin , Ameh Eyiene
Published: August 2021

The study investigated the relationship between financial resources and junior secondary school students’ academic performance in Cross River State, Nigeria. Four null hypotheses were formulated and tested. Ex-post facto design was used for the study. Subjects who participated in the study were 397 students from 277 public junior secondary schools in the study area but data was collected from only 386 representing 97.2 percent. Two instruments titled “Financial Resources Questionnaire (FRQ) and Junior Secondary School Students’ Academic Performance Scale (JSSSAPS)” were used for data collection. Data was analyzed using Population t-test and Multiple Regression analysis. The result indicated that junior secondary school students’ academic performance is significantly high. The result further revealed that financial resources in terms of: investment in school facilities, allocation of financial resources, structure of financial resources and amount of financial resources jointly predicts students’ academic performance. It was concluded that school business just like every other economic unit and business concerns alike, cannot thrive by mere availability of financial resources but by its utilization.

Authors: Ayodele John Alade
Published: August 2021

Upholding the rule of law and adherence to the principles of justice play an important role in the economic and social development of a Nation, this is because rule of law and justice to all guarantee peace, security and stability. For a Nation to be ranked among the committee of civilized and developed Nations, rule of law and principles of justice must be upheld. Using the doctrinal methodology, this work assessed Nigerian State from the perspective of her adherence to the rule of law and upliftment of justice. This work reaffirms that for Nigeria as a State to achieve the Sustainable Development Goal 16, will depend on her commitment to the notion of the ideal character of the rule of law as a guiding principle for organizing life in society and access to justice as the essential instrument for the protection of human right. The work concluded that upholding law and order, providing predictable and efficient judgments through the institutional framework and attributes believed necessary to actuate the rule of law such as well trained law enforcement officers, functional courts, independent judiciary, comprehensive law and equipped correctional facilities and homes are the things upon which the Nigerian state can continue, prosper and survive.

The objective was to evaluate the effect of diets containing various levels of phytate and phytase on broilers from 1 to 42 days old. The treatments consisted of a combination of diets containing high (HP), medium (MP) and low (LP) phytate with positive control diet (PC) and a negative control diet (NC) that was similar to the PC in energy and protein but with less calcium and phosphorus. Three additional diets, based on the NC were supplemented with 500, 1000, or 1500 FTU kg-1 of phytase. Broilers that received the NC diet exhibited the lowest weight gain (WG), whereas those supplemented with 1000 FTU kg-1 obtained 2.84% higher WG compared with PC. Broilers that received NC had the lowest breaking strength and dry matter. Birds fed HP diets that received NC and NC + 500 FTU kg-1 had a higher concentration of serum Ca and P than birds fed LP diets. Broilers fed the NC and NC + 500 and 1000 FTU kg−1 had lower tibia Ca levels compared with birds fed the PC. Broilers fed HP diets had higher tibia Ca content than MP. Phytase supplementation had a positive response in diets with reduced Ca and P. Based on regression analysis the optimum inclusion of phytase to improve broiler performance parameters was calculated as 952 FTU kg-1.

Authors: Caf F. , Inci H. , Ayasan T.
Published: August 2021

In this study, the effects of different methods of feeding turkeys on the neuropeptide nesfatin-1 and the hormone irisin were evaluated. A total of 90 turkeys were distributed to three treatment groups, namely T1: conventional system, T2: 50% feed and pasture, and T3: pasture. There were 30 birds in each group with three random replications. The birds were fed for 18 weeks. At the end of the study, blood was collected from 10 birds of each group. Plasma nesfatin-1 and irisin levels were measured with an enzyme-linked immunoassay. The nesfatin-1 levels of male turkeys in T1, T2, and T3 were 0.76 ± 0.1 ng/m, 0.41 ± 0.1 ng/ml, and 1.24 ± 0.2 ng/ml, respectively. Nesfatin-1 levels in the female turkeys in T1, T2 and T3 were 0.53 ± 0.07 ng/ml, 1.18 ± 0.3 ng/ml, 1.32 ± 0.1 ng/ml, respectively. The irisin levels in the male turkeys in T1, T2, and T3 were 575.93 ± 42.5 pg/ml, 188.39 ± 1.8 pg/ml, and 607.54 ± 24.1 pg/ml, respectively. Irisin levels of the female turkeys in T1, T2 and T3 were 603.20 ± 42.2 pg/ml, 241.42 ± 18.4 pg/ml, and 399.29 ± 21.5 pg/ml, respectively. Because nesfatin-1 is involved in regulating food intake, food intake by turkeys might differ, depending on the management system. Different management systems might also alter irisin secreation because it can be induced by exercise.

The Learner-Centered Syllabus: From Theory to Practice in Allied Health Education
Authors: Peer Kimberly , Martin Malissa
Published: August 2021

The national focus in higher education in shifting from the instructional to the learning paradigm where the emphasis on student-centered learning is of paramount importance. Instructional paradigms focus on “providing instruction” with distinct emphasis on the role of the teacher. Under this structure, students are typically passive listeners and the instructor is the center of teaching and instruction. The learning paradigm, on the other hand, focuses on the outcomes of the educational process thereby “facilitating learning”. The role of the student is one of an active participant who is encouraged to become engaged in the learning process through various interactive activities facilitated by the instructor. The learning paradigm strives to produce an empowered, informed, and responsible student by putting the student at the center of the classroom. This learner-centered process theoretically embraces continued improvement in the quality of learning. The learner-centered syllabus is a productive tool that can facilitate this transformation from teaching to learner-centered classrooms. The purpose of this manuscript is to integrate theory into practice as faculty shift towards more learner-centered practices. Deeply rooted in the literature, this manuscript provides suggestions for the implementation of a learner-centered syllabus from a specialized allied health care perspective – athletic training. A brief overview of student-centered learning theory coupled with a framework for constructing a syllabus that fosters an environment which focuses on learning is presented. Particular emphasis is placed upon successful implementation and integration of the syllabus throughout the entire semester to promote student success.

Teacher professionality at a time of mobility:
Authors: Wedin Åsa
Published: August 2021

This study aims to investigate how the educational and linguistic backgrounds of teachers affect how they are positioned and how they position themselves in relation to their profession in a language introduction programme at upper secondary school in Sweden. Material from two years of study at one school was used to conduct a nexus analysis. The material comprised policy documents at the national and local levels; interviews with principals and teachers; and classroom and school environment observations. Conflicting discourses appear in the analysis in terms of teacher competence and teacher roles. Those teachers who had the relevant professional competence, as according to national documents, felt that their knowledge was not acknowledged and that they were not listened to. Official documents state that principals are responsible for fulfilling stipulated demands; however, they do not always have the necessary knowledge as this is not a requirement for their position. Thus, an ambiguous picture appears where teachers who are positioned as competent at the national level are positioned only to teach their own subject and are not given voice on issues relating to general teacher competence and organisation of education at the local level. This article highlights the importance of knowledge and understanding relating to L2 student learning at the management level.
Capturando os anos: a representação da velhice nos projetos de Arianne Clément
Authors: Cantuário Victor André Pinheiro
Published: August 2021

O artigo tem por objetivo demonstrar como a velhice é representada nos projetos de Arianne Clément. Para tanto, utilizou-se o acervo composto por três álbuns de imagens disponíveis no sítio oficial da fotógrafa canadense, além dos apontamentos de Sontag (2005) e Flusser (2006) sobre a arte da fotografia. Tais aportes teóricos foram fundamentais para que se compreendesse a representação da velhice por Clément como uma busca por um belo que se afasta de uma ideia comum associando-o à juventude, como se somente fosse belo aquilo que aparenta ser jovem. Clément, por outro lado, não apenas se dedica a dar visibilidade a idosos acima dos 70 anos como expõe o que suas vozes dizem sobre sexualidade, longevidade, feminismo e beleza. Dessa forma, conclui-se que Clément é artista comprometida com uma leitura da velhice que desafia visões desta segundo as quais deve permanecer confinada ao silêncio e ofuscada por uma miríade imagética que artificializa as experiências da vida e tenciona apagar da paisagem humana qualquer manifestação da velhice porque isto sinalizaria para a visualização do declínio do próprio ser.

Macroinvertebrados associados a macrófitas aquáticas tornam-se mais abundantes, pois as características morfológicas dessas plantas contribuem para o aumento da sua colonização, diversidade e avaliação da qualidade ambiental. Esse estudo apresenta o levantamento da composição e riqueza de macroinvertebrados (Classe Insecta) associados a diferentes espécies de macrófitas aquáticas e avalia a qualidade da água do reservatório Tanque de Aroeiras, Caetité, Bahia. Macroinvertebrados foram coletados em bancos de macrófitas de diferentes biótipos (Nymphaea L.; Ludwigia L.; Polygonum ferrugineum Wedd.) e identificados no nível taxonômico de família. Foram determinados os índices Biological Monitoring Working Party System (BMWP’) e Average Score per Taxa (BMWP-ASPT). O total de 7.120 espécimes foi registrado, com riqueza de 27 famílias, distribuídas nas ordens: Coleoptera, Diptera, Ephemeroptera, Hemiptera, Odonata e Trichoptera. Os coleópteros apresentaram maior riqueza; enquanto dípteros, maior dominância, sendo Chironomidae mais abundante. Tal fato pode estar associado à variedade de hábitos de vida aquático, o que contribui para uma maior disponibilidade de recursos alimentares. Os resultados do BMWP-ASPT classificaram a água desse reservatório como sendo de provável poluição moderada. Enfim, este estudo ressalta a importância de novas pesquisas para um maior conhecimento da comunidade de macroinvertebrados e sua aplicação na avaliação da qualidade da água desse reservatório.

Published: August 2021

К паранеопластическим синдромам относят заболевания, возникающие вследствие развития злокачественного новообразования и проявляющиеся симптомами, отдаленными от локализации самой опухоли и ее метастазов. Паранеопластические дерматозы – это многочисленная группа различных кожных проявлений, указывающих на возможность наличия опухоли, в том числе на ранней бессимптомной стадии развития. Одним из таких дерматозов является некролитическая мигрирующая эритема – патология кожи, имеющая ассоциацию с глюкагономой – альфа-клеточной опухолью поджелудочной железы, продуцирующей глюкагон. Представленное в статье описание клинического случая поможет улучшить понимание общности патогенетических аспектов между новообразованием и дерматозом, повысить онкологическую настороженность смежных специалистов и организовать эффективное междисциплинарное взаимодействие, улучшив качество жизни больных с опухоль-ассоциированными дерматозами.

Paraneoplastic syndromes include diseases that arise as a result of the development of a malignant neoplasm, manifested by symptoms that are remote from the localization of the tumor itself and its metastases. Paraneoplastic dermatoses are a large group of various skin manifestations that indicate the possibility of the presence of a tumor, including at an early asymptomatic stage of development. One of these dermatoses is necrolytic migrating erythema, a skin pathology associated with glucagonoma, an alpha – cell tumor of the pancreas that produces glucagon. The description of the clinical case presented in the article will help to improve the understanding of the common pathogenetic aspects between neoplasm and dermatosis, increase the oncological alertness of related specialists and organize effective interdisciplinary interaction, as a result, improving the quality of life of patients with tumor-associated dermatoses.

Published: August 2021

В статье рассматриваются факторы, связанные с пандемией COVID-19, влияющие на интимную жизнь в постоянных парах. Исследования сексологов, психологов, психотерапевтов, репродуктологов, объединение разносторонних проявлений самооценки и взаимоотношений в интимной сфере демонстрируют довольно стройную картину явлений, связанных с психологическими, психическими и физиологическими запросами и возможностями как отдельных индивидуумов, так и макросоциальных образований. Отмечается зависимость проявлений сексуальности от напряженности инфекционной ситуации и карантинной политики. Предлагаются практические подходы для стабилизации и улучшения интимного поведения в супружеских парах при проживании в ограниченных условиях в присутствии других членов семьи, направленные на снижение риска депрессии и сексуальных расстройств в условиях самоограничения при пандемии COVID-19. В настоящее время, после зимы 2020-2021 гг., сопровождающейся прогрессивным снижением уровня заболеваемости и смертности, растет число людей с рациональным отношением к происходящему, которые активно адаптируются внутри семьи, а также в социуме.

The article examines the factors associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, affecting intimate life in long-term couples. Research by sexologists, psychologists, psychotherapists, reproductologists, combining versatile manifestations of self-esteem and relationships in the intimate sphere demonstrate a fairly harmonious picture of phenomena associated with psychological, mental and physiological needs and capabilities of both individuals and macrosocial formations. The dependence of manifestations of sexuality on the intensity of the infectious situation and quarantine policy is noted. Practical approaches are proposed to stabilize and improve intimate behavior in married couples living in limited conditions in the presence of other family members, aimed at reducing the risk of depression and sexual dysfunction in self-restraint conditions in the COVID-19 pandemic. Currently, after the winter of 2020-2021, accompanied by a progressive decrease in the level of morbidity and mortality, the number of people with a rational attitude to what is happening is growing, who are actively adapting within the family, as well as in society.

Abstract. Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from permafrost-affected terrestrial ecosystems have received little attention, largely because they have been thought to be negligible. Recent studies, however, have shown that there are habitats in subarctic tundra emitting N2O at high rates, such as bare peat surfaces on permafrost peatlands. The processes behind N2O production in these high-emitting habitats are, however, poorly understood. In this study, we established an in situ 15N-labelling experiment with the main objectives to partition the microbial sources of N2O emitted from bare peat surfaces (BP) on permafrost peatlands and to study the fate of ammonium and nitrate in these soils and in adjacent vegetated peat surfaces (VP) showing low N2O emissions. Our results confirm the hypothesis that denitrification is mostly responsible for the high N2O emissions from BP surfaces. During the study period denitrification contributed with ~79 % of the total N2O emission in BP, while the contribution of ammonia oxidation was less, about 19 %. However, nitrification is a key process for the overall N2O production in these soils with negligible external nitrogen (N) load because it is responsible for nitrite/nitrate supply for denitrification, as also supported by relatively high gross nitrification rates in BP. Generally, both gross N mineralization and gross nitrification rates were much higher in BP with high N2O emissions than in VP, where the high C / N ratio together with low water content was likely limiting N mineralization and nitrification and, consequently, N2O production. Also, competition for mineral N between plants and microbes was additionally limiting N availability for N2O production in VP. Our results show that multiple factors control N2O production in permafrost peatlands, the absence of plants being a key factor together with inter-mediate to high water content and low C / N ratio, all factors which also impact on gross N turnover rates. The intermediate to high soil water content which creates anaerobic microsites in BP is a key N2O emission driver for the prevalence of denitrification to occur. This knowledge is important for evaluating future permafrost –N feedback loops from the Arctic.

Abstract. This study aimed to improve runoff simulations and explore deep soil hydrological processes for a watershed in the center of the Loess Plateau (LP), China. This watershed, the Wuding River Basin (WRB), has very complex topography, with soil depths ranging from 0 to 197 m. The hydrological model used for our simulations was the Community Land Model (CLM) version 5 developed by the National Center for Atmospheric Research. Actual soil depths and river channels were incorporated into CLM to realistically represent the physical features of the WRB. Through sensitivity tests, CLM with 150 soil layers produced the most reasonable results and was adopted for this study. Our results showed that CLM with actual soil depths significantly suppressed unrealistic variations of the simulated sub-surface runoff when compared to the default simulations with a fixed soil depth of 8 m. In addition, CLM with higher-resolution soil layering slightly improved runoff simulations, but generated simulations with much smoother vertical water flows that were consistent with the uniform distribution of soil textures in our study watershed. The runoff simulations were further improved by the addition of river channels to CLM, where the seasonal variability of the simulated runoff was reasonably captured. Moreover, the magnitude of the simulated runoff remarkably decreased with increased soil evaporation by lowering the soil water content threshold, which triggers surface resistance. The lowered threshold was consistent with the loess soil, which has a high sand component. Such soils often generate stronger soil evaporation than soils dominated by clay. Finally, with the above changes in CLM, the simulated total runoff matched very closely with observations. When compared with those for the default runoff simulations, the correlation coefficient, root-mean-square error, and Nash Sutcliffe coefficient for the improved simulations changed dramatically from 0.02, 10.37 mm, and −12.34 to 0.62, 1.8 mm, and 0.61. The results in this study provide strong physical insight for further investigation of hydrological processes in complex terrain with deep soils.

Purpose:Since conventional composite resins have some disadvantages such as polymerization shrinkage and secondarycaries formation, indirect restorations are preferred in cases where tooth tissue loss is high. The aim of this study is toexamine the water absorption and color change of indirect composite resins in different beverages.Materials & Methods:In the study, 40 specimens (10×2 mm) were arranged from each composite using three indirect(Signum Composite, Signum Ceramis and Gradia Plus) and one conventional (GrandioSO) composite resin. After thespecimens were polished, they were used for water absorption and color change test. The water absorption test wasperformed through keeping them in water for 7 days as specified in ISO 4049:2009. Samples were kept in coffee, tea anddistilled water for 7 days in order to examine color differences. The water absorption and color change values of thecomposite resins at the end of the 7th day were appraised using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey’s test(p<0.05).Results:While there was no statistically considerable difference between the water absorption data of the indirect andtraditional composite resin materials we used in the study (p>0.05). When the color changes of resin-containingcomposites in water, coffee and tea were examined, traditional composite resin (GrandioSO) showed statistically lesscolor change than indirect composites in water, coffee and tea (p<0.05).Conclusion:Although indirect composite resins showed similar water absorption with conventional composite, theyshowed more color change than conventional composite. The highest color change in indirect composites was seen incoffee solution. Particle size of the indirect composites do not affect water absorption, but the decrease in particle size ofcomposites shows less color change.

Pembinaan keberagamaan siswa pada dasarnya merupakan tanggung jawab dari orangtua dalam keluarga serta peran penting guru disekolah. Namun orangtua dan guru di skolah mempunyai keterbatasan dalam berbagai hal sehingga tanggung jawab pembinaan pendidikan yang dipikulkan kepadanya tidak semuanya dapat dilaksanakan. Orangtua menyerahkan anaknya untuk belajar di sekolah atau menuntut ilmu kepada guru mengaji. Namun demikian tanggung jawab pembinaan keberagamaan siswa ini tidak hanya tanggung jawab orangtua dan guru. Seluruh anggota masyarakat juga bertanggung jawab terhadap pembinaan pendidikan agama anggota masyarakat yang ada di lingkungannya. Selain itu efek pola hidup materialis tersebut merenggangkan ukhwah Islamiyah di antara sesama muslim, di mana masing-masing orang cenderung untuk individualis dan kehidupan manusia semakin gersang karena tidak memiliki pegangan hidup. Di sini pembinaan pendidikan agama semakin penting “karena kondisi masyarakat yang diperlukan sekarang adalah memiliki pola hidup yang sesuai  bahkan dapat menguasai segala akibat yang ditimbulkan oleh kemajuan teknologi, agar manusia muslim tidak mengalami bahaya degradasi martabatnya.
Inclusive education in public schools

Inclusive education is based on the approach, at the center of which is a student of his own abilities and needs, not a specific subject or program. Quality education can be achieved when teaching methods and strategies are tailored to the student's capabilities and needs, and not vice versa. Consequently, the difficulties that the child is experiencing at school will be considered a blemish of school and general educational system and teaching methodology, and not as a student's weakness. One of the most important factors in effective implementation of inclusive education is the highly qualified specialty teacher. Since 2010 the Ministry of Education and Science has initiated the development of professional standards for the special teacher. Since 2014, the National Center for Teacher Professional Development has developed training modules based on the standards that are prepared by special teachers. The standard is the foundation for universities, to develop special teacher's undergraduate and graduate programs.

Authors: Gogia Katuna
Published: August 2021

The article presents an innovative method of characterization of literary characters. It is known that the moral attitudes and the process of their formation equally raises the interest of psychologists and writers, which gives an absolute freedom to use psychological-philosophical theory for opening the character of literary characters. Moral development theory of American philosopher Lawrence Kohlberg is used for a new purpose in this work, which is the main novelty of the article. Literary character is assessed according to Kohlberg’s stages of moral development and is defined to which level it is relevant according to Kohlberg’s developed scale. Famous characters of two well-known Georgian writers Vazha-Pshavela and K. Gamsakhurdia have been selected for observation. The article is based on two articles already published by the author, which follows: ”Concept of Freedom and characters of Vazha-Pshavela” and “Jacob wrestling with God”, As a prototype of Constantine Arsakidze In K. Gamsakhurdia's historical novel “The right hand of the Great master".

In any country in the world, the importance of small business development is great in establishing a stable economic and political environment. Small business is recognized as a guarantor of employment, revenues growth and social stability. In the development of small business, the state's particular interest lies in it's socioeconomic role. Solving problems in a small business is the same as sustained economic development. Development of small business has a special role in the regions of Georgia. Today an important issues are resolved for the development of entrepreneurship. "Rules of the game" of small business are relatively acceptable and stable. An administrative barriers ar fewer. Nevertheless there are still a number of problems in a small business development today. Many institutions of market infrastructure are not fully accessible to small entrepreneurs yet. Anty-monopoly activities are not enough. We don't have different approaches in small business policy by region specifics. The main problem of small entrepreneur is finances , expensive bank loans, which significantly interrupts start-up and development of new business.
