Authors: Vojnich Viktor József , Pető Judit , Palkovics András , Hüvely Attila
Published: November 2020

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is an annual plant belonging to the legumes (Fabaceae) family. The plant is a Mediterranean one, native to the Mediterranean coast. It is a multi-use plant that is used as a herb, spice, and fodder plant. Fenugreek has high protein content and is well suited for feeding domestic and wild animals. Our open-field experiment was set up at the beginning of April 2018 in John von Neumann University, Faculty of Horticulture and Rural Development (Kecskemét). The treatments were: treatment 1 = 150 kg/ha, treatment 2 = 300 kg/ha, treatment 3 = 450 kg/ha complex fertilizer. The treatments were carried out in plots of 50-50 m2. In the experiment, different nutrient supply treatments were set up to achieve the highest fresh biomass weight. The fertilizer used in the research was Novatec premium (15 N - 3 P2O5 - 20 K2O - 2 MgO). When measuring fresh weight of fenugreek, the highest value was measured after 300 kg/ha treatment (14.45 kg). The values of treatment 1 (7.8 kg) and the treatment 3 (8.5 kg) were almost the same. The highest dose of treatment (450 kg/ha) resulted a decrease in the yield of T. foenum-graecum in our experiment.

Authors: Ecseri Károly , Honfi Péter
Published: November 2020

The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of fertilization on segetal vegetation, and determine the level of potassium sensitivity in case of three wildflower species.

The investigated model species were: Cyanus segetum Hill. (cornflower), Consolida orientalis GRAY. (larkspur) and Papaver rhoeas L. (poppy). The fertilizer (potassium chloride 60 %) was applied on the 14th of October 2016 (at the same time with sowing). Each plot received 9.375 g, 18.75 g, 37.5 g and 75 g, which is equivalent of 25, 50, 100, 200 kg/ha potassium active ingredient. One plot was 1.5 × 1.5 m. During the trial we did not applied any form of agro- or phytotechnical method, the plants were extensively maintained. The examination method based on horizontal and vertical plant parameters, on phenological stages comparison.

The spring development (growth of rosette) began at 800°C in the case of Cyanus segetum and Papaver rhoeas, while the overwintered seedlings of Consolida orientalis developed after a heat sum of 900-1100°C. Due to autumn sowing, the vegetation period started in 2017 10-14 days earlier than in the 2016 experiment, when the sowing date was in February. 

Nutrient application increased the height of plant, but did not affect the width and length of the plants. The positive effect were detectable in all treatments (Papaver rhoeas); or just 100 kg / ha treatment (Cyanus segetum and Consolida orientalis). Treatment accelerated the growth of Consolida orientalis plants. Positive effect of treatment was observed in terms of germination percentages and overwintering of poppy plants.
Investigation of farmers’ markets from the sales side
Authors: Gombkötő Nóra
Published: November 2020

Farmers’ market may solve many problems concerning long-distance transport. In this sales form, physical distance is reduced between the producer and the consumer, furthermore personal relationships and trust can be also established between these two actors. In addition, it provides small producers with the opportunity for producing and selling local, high-quality foods, and consumers are able to enjoy delicious, mostly local organic food products. Farmers’ market is an increasingly popular sales channel in Hungary. While in 2010 there were 100, in 2014 there were around 200 farmers’ markets, in 2017 their number increased to more than 250. The National Rural Development Program also encourages the sale of local products in this form. In this paper, a questionnaire survey was conducted with producers in the largest farmers' markets of the Transdanubian Region in Hungary, which was used to analyse the farmers’ market features of the region.

Published: November 2020

Cryogenic freezing is a mild freezing technology due to the formation of small ice crystals. This preservation technology is well applicable for increasing the shelf life of bakery products. In our experiment, we made donut samples of matured dough, traditional dough with pork fat, and dough with increased fibre content made by adding flaxseed flour. They were fried in palm oil and also in high oleic sunflower oil. Donuts were frozen in liquid nitrogen for 60 seconds and they underwent a storage of 7 days at -18°C. Thawing at room temperature and thawing in oven were tested. We investigated how freezing, frozen storage and different thawing processes affect sample texture by penetration. The effect of freezing on water activity and sensory properties were also investigated. In our experiment we found that cryogenic freezing influenced the texture of prepared donuts, but sensory evaluation have shown that this does not lead to a decrease in popularity. In addition, a slight decrease in water activity was observed after freezing and thawing. Heating in oven proved to be the better method for the thawing process of donuts based on sensory properties of products. In addition, consumers preferred the increased fibre content of doughs.
Trade characteristics of new member states’ agriculture
Authors: Mizik Tamás
Published: November 2020

New member states (NMS) joined the European Union (EU) in 2004 or later. They became a part of the common, unified market. Without any trade restrictions, NMS were able to trade with every member state. On the other hand, generous support of the Common Agricultural Policy also boosted their agricultural sector. This paper gives an overview of the OMS’ agricultural performance, followed by a detailed trade analysis. It identifies major export products and the concentration of trade. Agricultural trade will be separated into NMS and old member states (OMS) to reveal differences and similarities in the trade patterns.

Published: November 2020

Development of nutrient-dense foods is one of the most important goals of today’s food industry. High protein content of foods helps to provide energy and aminoacids for human body.

In our study protein enriched filling was developed for doughnuts. The main ingredients of the product were pudding powder and egg white product (TOTu, ToTu milk, ToTu cream, and ToTu cream extra).

The texture of samples was analyzed by Anton Paar Mcr 92 rheometer and the quality of products was evaluated by sensorial tests. Microbiological decontamination of HHP was investigated (500 MPa, 5 min).

Our results show that high protein content did not influence the sensorial quality of filling, as long the microbiota of the products is highly improved by HHP treatment. Rheological properties is highly influenced by the concentration of egg proteins.

The overall quality will be better, if egg white products are used for the product.

Authors: Kristó István , Vályi Nagy Marianna , Jakab Péter , Tar Melinda
Published: November 2020

The research was established in one growing season (2018), in 4 repeats, on 10 square meter random layout plots in the research farm of the Department of Field Crops Research of National Agricultural Research and Innovation Centre, in Szeged-Öthalom.

In our investigation we used two different seeding rates (40 and 60 seeds m-2) on two soybean varieties (Pannónia kincse, Bahia). This study was carried out in inoculated field soil and non-inoculated field soil. We determined the yield and evaluated our results with ANOVA according to the different seeding density and varieties.

From the results of our one-year survey, we could determine that Bahia had a higher yield than Pannonia kincse, which could be proved at 5% level of significance. Based on this data, we can see that the 60 seeds m-2 plots produced higher yields than the lower seed density (40 seeds m-2) plots. The results show that soybean yields increased as a result of soil inoculation.

Modern and Postmodern Views of Education that Shape EFL Mentoring in the Teaching Practicum
Authors: Bonilla Medina Sandra Ximena , Samacá Bohórquez Yolanda
Published: November 2020

Educational settings are now characterised by ethnic, cultural, linguistic, sociocultural and epistemological diversity. This article analyses epistemological diversity as an important factor in shaping teacher education programmes. This involved exploring how teacher-educators and student-teachers align themselves or negotiate modern and postmodern views of education. The research employed a narrative analysis-based on a qualitative methodology to discuss the effects of modern and postmodern views of knowledge construction and pedagogical action during the English Teaching practicum at a state university in Bogota. The findings suggest that, even though teacher-educators and student-teachers position themselves with discourses of generational change regarding conceptions of knowledge construction, there is a tendency to shape practices based on the ideals of fixed-defined generations (e.g. old, young) who have fixed views of education (old/traditional, young/contemporary) which consequently give particular shapes to pedagogical actions.
Editorial
Authors: Colombian Applied Linguistics Journal Revista
Published: November 2020

The Colombian Applied Linguistics Journal has been a space for encouraging language teacher researchers to share their experiences and illuminate others’ experience. In this trajectory, applied linguistics and English language teaching have been intertwined fields, where the integration of theoretical tools has allowed new comprehensions of one another. Authors of the journal have demonstrated this mutual exchange with the multiple outlooks and topics that they have proposed as part of their writings. As mentioned in the previous editorial (CALJ, Vol. 21, Nº 2, 2019), applied linguistics has been useful to determine not only a variety of practices of language teaching and learning, but also the implication of those in broader areas (Quintero & Bonilla, 2020, p. 2). In the same line of thought, the reflections that have emerged in the process of language teaching and learning have originated new inquiries in applied linguistics that have further contributed to both fields. In the commitment that the Colombian Applied Linguistics Journal has taken on, authors continue to explore areas that have a variety of characteristics.

Authors: Angnes Juliane Sachser , Ichikawa Elisa Yoshie , Klozovski Marcel Luciano , Freitas Maria de Fátima Quintal de
Published: November 2020

Este ensaio teórico se propôs a compreender como se configura a concepção contemporânea de Direitos Humanos, e a partir disso, articular as Ações Afirmativas para os Povos Indígenas inseridas nesta concepção. Ou seja, se propõe em refletir de que forma ocorreu este processo na América Latina, ou seja, se estas ações propostas na América Latina para os Povos Indígenas adotam uma perspectiva constituída no “sujeito de direito” sendo visto em sua particularidade e peculiaridade, apresentando se houve avanços ou retrocessos. Os resultados apontaram que, especificamente, que a partir das concepções apresentadas na OIT houve uma quebra do paradigma integracionista mostrando um verdadeiro avanço frente às concepções e às formas como as sociedades indígenas são compreendidas, pelo menos na legislação aplicada na América Latina. Todavia, há muito ainda que se refletir e lutar.
Marcas étnicas y auto-reconocimiento de estudiantes indígenas en educación superior
Authors: Navia Antezana Cecilia , Czarny Krischkautzky Gabriela , Salinas Sánchez Gisela
Published: November 2020

En este trabajo se analizan experiencias de jóvenes indígenas que estudian en un programa educativo de la Universidad Pedagógica Nacional de la Ciudad de México. Se pone en cuestión algunos efectos que producen los programas con marca étnica, reconociendo las contradicciones y discriminaciones que atraviesan los sujetos portadores de éstas. Se busca contribuir al debate contemporáneo sobre los modos de autoreconocimiento de las juventudes indígenas en la educación superior y poner en tensión concepciones muy arraigadas como la identidad étnica, que sigue orientando las políticas educativas en nuestro contexto. Desde una perspectiva cualitativa e interpretativa, usando la técnica de grupo focal, se fueron reconociendo ámbitos como los vínculos y la confianza con los docentes, y cómo ello contribuye al reposicionamiento de los sujetos, sus procesos identitarios y caminos emancipatorios. Al mismo tiempo, se reconocen las discriminaciones presentes en la universidad, que se refuerzan en algunos casos por los modos esencialistas de entender la presencia indígena y se discuten algunos efectos que producen las acciones afirmativas, que reflejan situaciones de confrontación y  contradictorias en los procesos de habitar la universidad por parte de los estudiantes indígenas.
Educación indígena y diálogo Intercultural: una clase compartida entre estudiantes universitarios Kaingang de Brasil y estudiantes del Reino Unido
Authors: Santos Jorge Alejandro , Battestin Cláudia , Reid Darren R. , Piovezana Leonel
Published: November 2020

El artículo presenta una experiencia de diálogo intercultural a través de una clase en compartida entre estudiantes brasileños del pueblo Kaingang y estudiantes de historia de la Universidad de Coventry del Reino Unido. Está inspirada en la propuesta de la filosofía intercultural que postula al diálogo entre culturas como método para articular un proyecto alternativo al proceso de globalización actual, sustentado en la diversidad de las culturas entendidas como reservas de humanidad capaces de brindar recursos para una mundialización solidaria, basada en la cooperación entre pueblos y culturas. La construcción de este diálogo requiere de acciones y propuestas concretas que lleven adelante lo meramente enunciado filosóficamente. Creemos que el ámbito educativo, y en especial la educación y la escuela indígena, es un espacio inmejorable para articular el diálogo intercultural de manera práctica y concreta. Por eso además de presentar la experiencia se evalúan cualitativamente sus resultados, mostrando el impacto positivo que tuvo en los dos grupos que participaron en ella.
Algorithmic governance in public sector: is digitization a key to effective management

Published: November 2020

While algorithmic governance in the public sector can lead to increased efficiency and cost-effectiveness, the implementation of those digital innovations can also result in multiple forms of harm: data bias can lead to reinforcement of inequality, discrimination, and criminalization of already marginalized populations; lack of accountability and transparency in decision-making can lead to injustices; societal trust and the legitimacy of public sector institutions may suffer; privacy and fundamental human rights may be threatened, ethical standards challenged. Digital transformation, leading to algorithmic governance, may be challenged in times of crisis, such as the recent pandemic outbreak, as new technologies in public sector institutions and forms of data-driven surveillance and intrusive monitoring are introduced in the name of public security and social need.  This research focuses in affirming the assumption that the effective management in the public sector, first of all, is determined by the ability of this sector to transform the perception of the services delivered; secondly, it requires strategic actions to enable the systemic and coherent digital transformation of the public sector; and lastly, the new strategies of human resources management in the public sector should be considered. The focus is concentrated on understanding how the implementation of digital tools to the public sector and public services correlate with algorithmic governance concept and what impact digitization has on the effectiveness of management in the public sector.

Published: November 2020

The article is about revealing the content and role of finance capacity and financial and economic results of enterprises activity under the crisis. The article provides an understanding of crisis results at the enterprises activity in conditions of poor management and weak financial strategy. It is analyzed current business situation, including results of the companies due to the coronavirus. It is established that not only the crisis management system (if it exists at the enterprise), but also the financial management system at the enterprise has great importance during a crisis and ensures its stable functioning afterwards. With unstable financial flows and their inept coordination, a crisis for an enterprise can come much earlier (due to internal disruption) than for the whole country or the world economy as a whole. The results are based on theoretical scientific researches and financial and economic data of enterprises activity. Based on system analysis, a number of features have been identified as the building elements for the formation of understanding how to manage an organization in a crisis taking into account the financial aspect. A logical sequence of factors and their interrelationships was established within the entire process of enterprise management during a crisis. Identified elements indicate the directions that need to be implemented at the enterprise for its stable functioning even in times of crisis. According to the analyzed data, most companies used their financial reserves and were able to improve their positions. It is investigated the main common ways to reduce costs in crisis: reducing the production capacity (including the number of purchases, storage), changing the schedule of employees working day (taking into account daylight hours), reduction (closure) of sale points (which, among other things, provokes staff reduction also). It is declined ways of manager’s behavior as decide with speed over precision, adapt boldly, reliably deliver, and engage for impact, which help them to manage company effectively.

Published: November 2020

The purpose of the study is to assess the institutional environment and determine the need for financing small agricultural businesses in Ukraine in order to facilitate access to financial resources in accordance with the need. The information base of the study is the regulatory and legal framework of state support for the agricultural industry, analytical studies of information agencies, data from the State Statistics Service of Ukraine and Ministry for Development of Economy, Trade and Agriculture of Ukraine. The data on the planned and actual indicators of budget expenditures for agricultural development were obtained on the basis of an analysis of the reports posted on the official website of the State Budget of Ukraine. The study determined the market capacity by financing the activities of small agricultural enterprises by sources and state support. An attempt has been made to outline the technology for a comprehensive assessment of the need for financing peasant and small farms in Ukraine through determining the capacity of financing the industry. As a result, it was established that the annual demand for resources for this type of entrepreneurship is at least UAH 370 billion, and in the near future it will grow at least UAH 26.5 billion annually. Particular attention is paid to the areas of micro crediting and state support for the development of small businesses in rural areas. The practical significance of the study lies in the fact that the implementation of the results of research work allows the implementation of technological support for the formation of a financing system for small agricultural entrepreneurship. This is necessary for the technical justification of state programs for the development of small business, strategies for the development of rural areas, state regulation of the development of the agricultural sector.

Published: November 2020

Cyber security has become an important issue both on the EU and the national level. Cyber security is now perceived as a part of national security. The newly emerging cyber security policy, comprising national cyber security strategies as an important constituent part, has been recently paid considerable attention. Speaking of national cyber security strategies, a positive thing is that the majority of EU member states have already approved such strategies. However, the approved strategies differ considerably in terms of their content and implementation. The present article aims at identifying reasons for differences in individual national strategies and analyses aspects of their unifications in expectation to find out an optimum balance between the degree of unification and the need to retain differences arising from intrinsic national singularities. To this end, the article analyses the issue of national cyber security on the basis of Lithuania's cyber security strategy as a sample in the context of ENISA good practices for the development of cyber security strategies and by application of ENISA developed KPIs and testing ENISA cyber security strategy evaluation tool. Finally, the article suggests recommendations on further development of national cyber security strategies in terms of their unification and national singularities.

McAllister, MJ, Gonzalez, AE, and Waldman, HS. Impact of time restricted feeding on markers of cardiometabolic health and oxidative stress in resistance-trained firefighters. J Strength Cond Res 36(9): 2515–2522, 2022—Firefighters are often exposed to numerous occupational stressors that cause inflammation, oxidative stress (OS), and elevated risk for developing cardiometabolic disease. Time-restricted feeding (TRF) has been shown to result in favorable changes in markers of inflammation and cardiometabolic health. This study investigated the impact of a 6-week TRF intervention (14:10; fasting:feeding) in resistance-trained firefighters. Blood was analyzed for several markers of inflammation, OS, and cardiometabolic health: insulin, ghrelin, leptin, glucagon, adiponectin, resistin, advanced glycated end products (AGE), advanced oxidation protein products, total nitrite-nitrate levels, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, IL-10, as well as glucose and lipid levels. A graded exercise test was also conducted before and after the TRF intervention, and substrate oxidation rates were calculated and compared before and after the intervention. Comparisons pre and post TRF were determined with dependent t-tests. Time-restricted feeding resulted in significant reductions in advanced oxidation protein products (∼31%) and AGEs (∼25%); however, no other changes were found. These findings suggest that TRF may be a nutrition intervention aimed at improving some select markers of cardiometabolic health in firefighters, namely, by the reductions in advanced oxidation protein products and AGEs.
“The Goddess is Alive. Magic is Afoot.”
Authors: Feraro Shai
Published: November 2020

This article analyzes the influence of radical and cultural feminist ideas on the writings produced by Zsuzsanna Emese Mokcsay (b. 1940), a seminal Pagan activist who spearheaded the development of the Dianic Witchcraft tradition during the 1970s and 1980s. An examination of Budapest's writings reveals the ideological background of Dianic Wicca, found in the specific aspects in the works of radical and cultural feminist thinkers such Mary Daly, Adrienne Rich, Robin Morgan, Susan Griffin, and Susan Brownmiller, which suited Budapest's lesbian-separatists leanings. The article thus sheds light on the politics of Goddess Spirituality during its formative years that have made modern Paganism what it is today. This is particularly important in light of the challenges to Dianic Wicca (and Goddess Spirituality in general) in recent decades, as third-wave feminism and transgender rights highlight a generational gap between veteran and younger Dianic women.
Performing (In)Attention
Authors: Weaver Erica
Published: November 2020

The central regulatory document of the tenth-century English Benedictine Reform, Æthelwold of Winchester’s Regularis concordia, contains an important performance piece: the Visitatio sepulchri, which standard theater histories understand as an anomalous originary text that marks the reemergence of drama in the European Middle Ages. This article resituates it alongside the schoolroom colloquies of Æthelwold’s student Ælfric of Eynsham and his student and editor Ælfric Bata to argue that these texts together cultivated monastic self-possession by means of self-conscious performances of its absence. By staging (in)attention, they thereby modeled extended engagement in moments and spaces that could otherwise seem too quiet or empty to hold concentration for long, from the classroom to the sepulcher to the page, while also exposing the limits of “distraction” and “attention” as analytical terms.

In 1541, the Franciscan friar Motolinía sent to Spain an account of the Tlaxcalan people performing the religious drama The Conquest of Jerusalem in Tlaxcala, New Spain. Previous scholars have read his festival account to reflect only local political interests. I argue that it is a palimpsest, containing both the Tlaxcalans’ ambitious diplomatic strategy, expressed in their performance, and Motolinía’s efforts to steer Castile’s policies in the Americas and the greater Mediterranean.
Building a “Stately Pleasure Dome”
Authors: Burns Andrea A.
Published: November 2020

The industrial heritage attraction known as AutoWorld, which opened in downtown Flint in July 1984, was intended to lure businesses and tourists to a struggling city. Yet just six months after opening, AutoWorld closed. This essay explores AutoWorld’s creation, its exhibits, and why audiences rejected it. I argue that this “half museum” and “half theme park” prioritized the auto industry’s agenda and white suburbanites over the needs of Flint residents. In doing so, I trace the connections between AutoWorld and the Flint Water Crisis, the origins of which are partially rooted in the subsidization of the auto industry’s expansion to the Flint suburbs. Because of misguided planning initiatives like AutoWorld, as well as the criminal enabling of the water crisis, the foundation of trust between Flint residents and those who operate the city’s institutions has been severely weakened.
Scaling Invisible Walls

Published: November 2020

California’s Franciscan missions were grounded in Indigenous homelands that to this day remain largely undertheorized and trivialized by scholarly and popular understandings of missions as inescapable fortresses of confinement. Narratives that position California’s missions as places of Indigenous imprisonment endure but they are at odds with a growing body of archaeological and documentary evidence demonstrating the persistence of Native lives, activities, and decision-making taking place within and beyond the walls of missions. We argue that interpretations of the missions in scholarly and popular conversation must make Indigenous persistence and resilient relationships to meaningful landscapes the cardinal priorities, not secondary attributes, in the study of Indigenous responses to colonization.
Ergonomics Study Among Operators in Water-Jet Production Area in Aircraft Industry
Authors: W. Mahmod W.N.F. , Abdullah U. N. N. , Othman N.
Published: November 2020

This paper is to conduct the ergonomics risks assessment (ERA) among the operators in water-jet production workstation area in aircraft industry, working with aircraft panels’ liners named Oriented Strand Board (OSB) and the aircraft panels which require forceful exertion, lifting and carrying task in order to complete the operation activity. The possibility of Work Musculoskeletal Disorders (WMSDs) among operators could occur due to their daily working activities. The objectives of this study are to conduct the initial ERA and advance ERA among the waterjet production operators. Twelve male operators had been participated in this study with range age 20 to 40 years old. Nordic checklist, operational interviews, observations, Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) tool and Manual Handling Assessment Chart (MAC) tool as part of advance ERA evaluation were applied in this study. The initial ERA results recommend for further investigation on awkward posture and forceful exertion among the operators in waterjet production. The results from REBA shows that all operators obtain high risk ergonomics score i.e. 10 scores for load weight and high repetitive in lifting and carrying task. The results from MAC validate that gripping mechanism during lifting and carrying activity requires ergonomics intervention for reducing the forceful exertion and high repetitive risk. The results from ERA, REBA and MAC assessment in this study are novel contribution in the aircraft production since the similar data is not exist yet. The results will be translated into measurable design parameters for waterjet workstation improvement in future design workstation.

Authors: Zhao Feng , Chen Xiangyong , Cao Jinde , Guo Ming , Qiu Jianlong
Published: November 2020

This paper investigated observer-based controller for a class of singular nonlinear systems with state and exogenous disturbance-dependent noise. A new sufficient condition for finite-time stochastic input-to-state stability (FTSISS) of stochastic nonlinear systems is developed. Based on the sufficient condition, a sufficient condition on impulse-free and FTSISS for corresponding closed-loop error systems is provided. A linear matrix inequality condition, which can calculate the gains of the observer and state-feedback controller, is developed. Finally, two simulation examples are employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches.
Future decade of ocean science: prospects of interaction of Ukraine with the intergovernmental oceanographic commission of UNESCO
Authors: SHCHYPTSOV O.A.
Published: November 2020

The article considers the prospects of Ukraine’s cooperation with the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO in the scope of the forthcoming United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development. According to the resolution adopted on the 72nd Session of the UN General Assembly, the Decade is to begin on January 1, 2021 and take place within the existing structures and available resources. The purpose of the Decade is to implement the objectives of the Sustainable Development Goals, namely “Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development”. The Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO (IOC), maintained by Member States, facilitates international cooperation and the coordination of programs to deepen knowledge about the nature and resources of the oceans and coastal areas. The IOC is currently finalizing draft implementation plan for the Decade (2021—2030) in consultation with Member States, specialized agencies, funds, programs and bodies of the United Nations, as well as other intergovernmental organizations, nongovernmental organizations and relevant stakeholders with the aim to identify specific objectives, crosscutting issues and key Decade`s themes. Ukraine’s membership in the IOC UNESCO is strategically focused on expanding international cooperation of domestic scientific and educational institutions by ensuring their participation in the program activities of the organization. There should be only one national coordinating body for liaison with the Commission within each IOC member state. Unfortunately, in Ukraine there is no such legitimate coordinating body today. Considering the intergovernmental character of the Commission, this officially designated body is governmental by nature and relies on institutional basis as well as answers directly to a ministry. Therefore, in accordance with the requirements of the IOC UNESCO it is necessary to establish the Interdepartmental National Oceanographic Commission as a national coordinating body in Ukraine that will determine one or two coordinators, a professional national correspondent in the relevant IOC field, as well as representatives of intergovernmental programs and thematic groups.

For the first time the data on the distribution of the potential (ϕm) and resistance (Rm) in the plasma membrane and cell wall (R0) of Chara fragilis cells were obtained using the Hogg method by the number of C. fragilis cells in standard conditions. The Hogg method allows simultaneous measurement of electrophysiological parameters, such as ϕm and Rm. The stationary values of the membrane potential and resistance varied in a rather wide range: –90...–300 mV and 1.0–32.6 Ohm·m2, respectively. The average values of ϕm were –183.0 ± 4.9 mV, Rm –9.0 ± 1.2 Ohm·m2. Using standard modifiers of membrane transport, the electrogenic activity of the cells was differentiated into two types: K+-channels and H+-membrane pumps. The activation ranges of the K+-inward rectifying channels and K+-outward rectifying channels are –130...–50 and –300...–162 mV, respectively. The cytosolic activity of K+-ions was 61.6 mmol/L. Since in our research, C. fragilis cells were studied for the first time, their electrogenic activity and ionic conductivity were tested using ammonium metavanadate (VO3ˉ) – a proton pump inhibitor and tetraethylammonium (TEA+) – a universal blocker of K+-channels of plasma membranes. Chara fragilis cells can be recommended as a test object for establishing the mechanisms of changes in plasma membrane transport under exogenous stress factors influence.
Inappropriate hospital site selection: A case report‎
Authors: Zarei Mohammad , Kameli Ahmad , Dastras Majid
Published: November 2020

Introduction: Health centers as one of the main urban services, and one of the key factors in assessing the feasibility of sustainable development in cities have a high sensitivity to location and choice of accommodation.

Case Report: Shirvan is the largest city after the capital of the province in North Khorasan of Iran. On the southern edge of the city of Shirvan, there is a seasonal river between the city and Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani Hospital. The need to build a solid bridge is essential for safe access to the hospital, which, unfortunately, has not been achieved. The constructed roundabout passes approximately one meter from the river floor. In the spring of 2019, there was heavy rainfall in most parts of the country, and the area was not poor. The rains blocked access to Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani Hospital as water flowed into the seasonal river.

Conclusion: A hospital that should help itself to a crisis was itself a cause of the crisis in a short time.

Published: November 2020

This project report describes policy, practice and theory related to a cross-sectoral international project funded by the European Union’s Erasmus+ programme. STALWARTS– Sustaining Teachers and Learners with the Arts: Relational Health in European Schools–aimed to promote relational health in schools through engagement with the arts. The project was developed in five European countries: Estonia, Italy, Norway, Portugal, and the UK. The local partnerships between five universities and community-based schools are diverse in terms of their locations in the European region and the populations they serve, in terms of age, social status and learning conditions.

In this article we focus on the link between ELET policies in each country and local context. We ask: How can identified ELET policy initiatives in the five partner countries relate to the achievements of the STALWARTS partner schools when working with the expressive arts? Some related theoretical background underpinning the practical aspects of the project brings this report to a conclusion.

Authors: Tania Tania , Yunivita Vycke , Afiatin
Published: November 2020

Objective: Adherence to medication is crucial for hypertension patients in order to control and prevent complications. This study aimed to describe the adherence to antihypertensive drugs among patients with hypertension in Bandung District, West Java, Indonesia. Methods: This was a cross-sectional observational study on patients with hypertension in the work area of Cileunyi Public Health Center (PHC), Bandung District, West Java, Indonesia. The inclusion criteria used were patients with hypertension who were prescribed an antihypertensive drug by a physician, above 18 years old, and had been using an antihypertensive medication for at least two months before the study. Data were obtained through interviews during the month of July to August 2018 using a modified MMAS-8 questionnaire of the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8), which includes Likert-type scale questions. Data collected were then analyzed using the Rasch Model, and the mean logit person was used as a cut off between adherence and non-adherence categories. Results: A total of 75 patients with hypertension were recruited. The prevalence of adherence to medication was 59%. Most patients who adhered to the medication were > 55 years old (31%), female (59%), had been diagnosed with hypertension for < 5 years (31%), and received support from family/social environment (40%). Conclusion: Many factors support the adherence to antihypertensive medication, including age, gender, time of hypertension diagnosis, and support from family or social environment. The adherence to antihypertensive medication among patients with hypertension visited Cileunyi Primary Health Care, Bandung District, West Java, Indonesia is good.

Authors: Mathew Sherman David , Abraham Betsy
Published: November 2020

Objective: To desribe a case of cranial subdural hematoma as an atypically sporadic and potentially devastating complication of a lumbar puncture mimicking post-dural puncture headache which may lead to delayed diagnosis. Method: This is a a case report of chronic intracranial subdural hematoma as a complication of lumbar puncture for spinal anaesthesia in a forty-eight-year-old male underwent an uneventful ureterolithotomy. In the postoperative period, the patient complained of excruciating headache which partially subsided with symptomatic treatment. However, after four weeks, the patient presented with worsening headache and vomiting. Results: A contrast enhanced computer tomography study revealed a subdural haematoma in the left fronto-temporo-parietal-region. The patient underwent an immediate decompressive craniectomy for subdural hematoma. The postoperative period was uneventful and the patient was discharged without any neurological deficits. Conclusion: Intracranial complication such as subdural hematoma is rare after a dural puncture and is often masquerading as a post dural puncture headache. Imaging studies like computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are to be considered in earlier stages of non-retractable headache to rule out such rare complications.
