Published: October 2023

Fungal infections are prevalent in a tropical country like India. Pharmacotherapy of fungal disease has been revolutionized by the introduction of relatively less toxic oral drugs, com- bination therapy, and new formulations of older agents. However, data regarding antifungal drug usage patterns in India must be more present. Hence, this study was planned to study the prescribing pattern and to compare the cost of antifungal drugs in patients attending a tertiary care teaching hospital. It was a cross-sectional, observational study carried out at GCS Hospital, Ahmedabad, from April 2021 to Sept 2021. Prescriptions of 130 patients were collected and analyzed using Microsoft Excel version 2013. A total of 213 antifungal drugs were prescribed to 130 patients. Most patients, 81 (62.3%) were from the 18-40 age group. Combined antifungal treatment (Oral + Topical) was prescribed in 77(59.2%). The most common class of antifungal drugs was imidazole 107 (50.23%), and clotrimazole was the most familiar drug. The most common indication for antifungal therapy was tinea cruris (45.38%). An average of 3.75 drugs were prescribed per prescription, of which 1.63 were antifungal drugs. Combined treatment of oral and topical antifungal drugs was common in dermatological practice. However, the cost of the treatment can be reduced by prescribing generic drugs.
Effect of combined drying on the physical properties and bioactive components of ‘Jonathan’ apple (Malus domestica L.)
Authors: Antal T.
Published: October 2023

The main objectives of the present study were to investigate the physical attributes and chemical characteristics of dried apple cubes. The apple cubes were dried in vacuum and infrared dryers at 40 °C and freeze dryer individually and in combination. The physical properties – texture and rehydration – of vacuum drying-assisted freeze-dried apple dices were close to the freeze-dried products. The hardness of vacuum drying-assisted freeze-dried apples was better, by at least 15.8%, than those dried by infrared-freeze, but rehydration capacities were similar. The freeze-dried control samples achieved a lower water activity (0.145) in comparison with infrared, vacuum, and combined dried ones. The infrared-freeze-dried samples retained 3.6 and 11.6% more polyphenols and antioxidant capacity than samples prepared by the other methods. The ascorbic acid content of the freeze-dried samples was significantly higher by about 59% than that of the hybrid dried samples.

The popularity of sweet potatoes in Central Europe has been increasing recently, mainly the high-quality, perfect, fresh tubers are in demand. However, out of class grade tubers could be marketed in dried, grounded form as sweet potato flour.

The aim of this study was to characterise some important nutritional properties of flours of three sweet potato genotypes with different tuber colours (white, purple, and orange) and to investigate how this raw material affects the rheological properties of sweet potato-wheat flour blends.

Dietary fibres are present in sweet potatoes in a significant proportion, orange coloured flour showed the highest values. The main free sugars were sucrose, glucose, and fructose, but sucrose was the dominant one. Antioxidant capacity and total phenolic content also varied considerably, the purple flour had the highest values. Mineral composition showed significant variability, the purple flour contained the highest level of minerals. It was confirmed that adding sweet potato flour to wheat flour affected its rheological properties, however in a varied manner. For the orange flour these properties have lightly decreased, though it had no significant effect on dough quality, while the white and purple flours with a dosage of 5, 10 and 15% could improve the dough behaviour. Thus, sweet potato in this form is a valuable raw material.
Polski Narodowy Komitet Demokratyczny wobec odwilży październikowej w Polsce
Authors: Witalec Robert
Published: October 2023

Wystąpienie Chruszczowa na XX zjeździe KPZR w 1956 r. stanowiło początek odwilży w ZSRS, a następnie w krajach Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej, w tym w Polsce. W polityce wewnętrznej PRL nastąpiła tzw. odwilż gomułkowska, będąca liberalizacją systemu komunistycznego. Wprowadzono amnestię, w ramach której wypuszczono wielu więźniów politycznych. Zmiany zachodzące w kraju spotkały się z żywym zainteresowaniem polskiej emigracji politycznej. W artykule przedstawiono powstanie i funkcjonowanie Polskiego Narodowego Komitetu Demokratycznego (PNKD) oraz stanowisko tej platformy politycznej wobec zmian w Polsce, w tym także buntu robotników poznańskich z czerwca 1956 r. Opisano kontrowersje związane z wizytą w Polsce członka władz Stronnictwa Pracy Seweryna Eustachiewicza, zupełnie inaczej ocenianej przez partnerów z PNKD. Zwrócono uwagę na rozbieżną ocenę sytuacji i przeobrażeń zachodzących w kraju pomiędzy Polskim Stronnictwem Ludowym i Stronnictwem Pracy będącymi głównymi ugrupowaniami PNKD. Podkreślono, że odmienne oceny odwilży październikowej w znaczący sposób wpłynęły na funkcjonowanie PNKD, były katalizatorem jego rozpadu. W artykule zaznaczono, że partnerzy z PNKD różnili się też w innych sprawach: w kwestii uzyskania przez Polskę pomocy ekonomicznej Zachodu, jak również w ocenie kampanii wyborczej oraz samych wyborów do Sejmu PRL z 20 stycznia 1957 r.

Authors: Bonusiak Grzegorz
Published: October 2023

Jednym z pogranicznych regionów europejskich, w których spotykają się ludzie przynależący do różnych grup językowych i kulturowych, jest Górna Adyga/Tyrol Południowy. Obecnie należący do Włoch region przez wieki poddany był napływowi germańskich osadników, którzy tworzą dziś grupę mniejszościową Tyrolczyków. Odczuwają oni silne związki z Austrią i zamieszkującymi ją Tyrolczykami. Jednocześnie obszar ten zamieszkuje znaczna liczba osób uważających się za Włochów i odczuwających związek z tym państwem. Współcześnie region stanowi modelowy przykład funkcjonowania autonomii terytorialnej zapewniającej wysoki poziom ochrony prawnej grupie mniejszościowej. Jego historia obfitowała wszakże w wydarzenia mogące podsycać wzajemną niechęć. Zwłaszcza ostatnie dwieście lat, kiedy to w całej Europie trwały procesy narodotwórcze, przyniosło zdarzenia, które pozostają żywe w pamięci mieszkańców. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie wydarzeń i procesów historycznych, które doprowadziły do ukształtowania się więzi regionu z Austrią i kulturą niemiecką, a jednocześnie związków z państwem i kulturą włoską.
Investigating the history of folk Taoism: the concept of magic in the study of zhuyou rituals
Authors: Muchowska Joanna
Published: October 2023

This article is devoted to the problem of applying the concept of magic in the study of Chinese Taoist pseudo-medical practices, particularly the therapeutic and apotropaic rituals of zhuyou 祝由, using incantations and talismans (fu 符). It addresses the question of whether, in the current state of sinological research, the use of the term "magic," which originated in Western culture, is still legitimate, and whether the phenomena in question meet the criteria for magicalness. This is an important issue because of the dissonance between the trends in contemporary theoretical research on magic, showing a tendency to interpret it as a parareligious phenomenon in which the concepts of religion and magic intermingle, and the practical approach of sinologists, who still clearly distinguish magical phenomena from religious phenomena and consistently use the term 'magic'. The article also attempts to answer the question of how classical definitions of magic should be modified to be consistent with the concept of magic actually used in sinological research.

At present, to create quantum frequency standards, the phenomenon of coherent population trapping (CPT) is widely used, in which, when a certain intensity is reached and the frequency interval between the spectral components coincides with the frequency of the hyperfine transition in an atom (most often in rubidium or cesium), a narrow resonance is observed in the absorption spectrum and the transmission of a cell with alkali metal vapor increases sharply. Since the amplitude of the CPT resonance critically depends on the intensity and position of the spectral components of the pump radiation, it is necessary to control the parameters of these components, which are usually recorded in digital form. This paper describes a fundamentally new method for processing the laser emission spectrum recorded with a scanned Fabry – Perot interferometer (FPI), based on using the experimentally recorded transmission form of the scanned FPI as a reference spectral component. The paper presents examples of processing the experimentally recorded radiation spectra of a diode laser with an external resonator under microwave modulation of its injection current. The error of processing by the proposed method turned out to be approximately an order of magnitude smaller than when processing by the well-known Airy formula describing the transmission of the FPI. This is explained by the fact that the Airy formula is valid for light beams whose wave front curvature is consistent with the curvature of the IFP mirrors, which is often not true in the case of a real experiment. The method can be used to process the spectra of modulated radiation of various types of lasers, which is an important task in detecting CPT resonances and further creating quantum frequency standards based on them.
Disorders Problem
Authors:   St. Petersburg State Electrotechnical University (LETI), Russian Federation, Grigoriev Yuri D.
Published: October 2023

The problem of characterizing symmetric necklaces as disorders is considered. Such an idea is an alternative approach to the one using Poya's enumeration theorem, including Burnside's lemma. The relationship between partitions of numbers and permutation types is shown. Disorder types are associated with necklace types considered as permutations in which no element remains in place, as well as with disorders with fixed elements. The distributions of disorders by types for necklaces up to the seventh degree are studied. The number and enumeration of disorders of each type is carried out, and their evenness is established. Particular attention is paid to the study of the symmetric necklaces properties. Classes of symmetry and asymmetry are enumerated for each necklace type considered. At the same time, the concepts of chiral and achiral symmetry are introduced as varieties of axial symmetry. Relationships between the power of symmetry classes and the order of symmetry of necklaces are revealed. The concept of symmetry diagrams for necklaces is introduced. Diagrams could be applied for determining the properties of invariance of symmetric and asymmetric necklaces of a given length. The concept of congruence is used as an equivalence relation between necklaces. It allows implementing a geometric approach to the study of necklaces and the visualization of the results obtained. For this purpose, necklaces are associated with multiconnected non-oriented graphs, the vertices of which are the vertices of regular polygons. In this case, the number of vertices in the graph corresponds to the necklace’s length, and the number of connected components coincides with the number of bead colors. As an application of the results obtained, the possibility of studying the accent dynamics of poetic stanzas vertically using necklaces is considered. Empirical data on the use of various types of seven-line stanzas in poetic practice are presented. It is noted that approximately a quarter of the existing symmetric types of necklaces for various reasons do not find practical application.
Сравнительная оценка вентильно-индукторных реактивных двигателей малой мощности с аксиальным или радиальным магнитным потоком
Authors: Мустафаев Руслан Решатович , Цветков Алексей Александрович
Published: October 2023

Введение. За рубежом в последнее десятилетие существенно вырос интерес и, соответственно, объём прикладных научных исследований, посвящённых вентильно-индукторным реактивным двигателям с аксиальным магнитным потоком (АВИРД) в связи с их более высокими удельными показателями по сравнению с двигателями аналогичного типа, но с радиальным магнитным потоком (РВИРД).

Цели и задачи. Настоящая работа направлена на развитие этого направления в отечественной электромеханике.

Методы и результаты. Для расчёта магнитного поля в АВИРД использована трёхмерная конечно-элементная модель, а для РВИРД – двухмерная с целью сокращения расчётного времени. Сравниваемые двигатели имеют одинаковые числа фаз, зубцов статора и ротора, воздушный зазор, эквивалентированы по условию создания одинакового вращающего момента при равной линейной токовой нагрузке. Получены соотношения, устанавливающие связь между главными размерами, обмоточными данными АВИРД и РВИРД, обеспечивающие их эквивалентность. Дана оценка моментных характеристик и массогабаритных показателей. Приведены геометрические размеры и массы сравниваемых двигателей, результаты компьютерного моделирования: графики фазных момента в функции положения ротора и величины постоянного тока, задаваемого в одной фазе, а также картина распределения магнитного поля 3D модели для одного из вариантов расчёта АВИРД. При равенстве создаваемого вращающего момента активные массы электротехнической стали сердечников, меди обмоток, а также активный объём АВИРД меньше, чем у РВИРД на 30,6, 22,0 и 8,4 % соответственно. Проведено сравнение АВИРД с двумя внешними статорами и одним внутренним сегментным ротором и с двумя внешними роторами и внутренним двухсторонним статором. Кратко рассмотрены технологические вопросы изготовления АВИРД.

Заключение. Полученные результаты подтверждают перспективность индукторной реактивной машины с осевым потоком. Вследствие более детальной проработки конструкции АВИРД получены лучшие массогабаритные показатели по сравнению с опубликованными данными.

Voices of Reticence, Desire, and Resistance in The History of Mary Prince, A West Indian Slave Related by Herself (1831)
Authors: Angeletti Gioia
Published: October 2023

Il saggio propone una lettura dell’io narrante in The History of Mary Prince, a West Indian Slave Related by Herself (1831), memoir di una donna di origini africane che divenne schiava nelle colonie inglesi dei Caraibi. Il discorso critico ruota attorno alle questioni di authorship, agency e autenticità, concentrandosi, in primo luogo, sulla nozione di invisibilità del soggetto subalterno femminile, così come fu teorizzato da Gayatri Spivak. Dopo aver analizzato il binomio presenza-assenza di tale soggetto, il saggio affronterà le questioni suddette in relazione alla resistenza e resilienza espresse dal narratore e ricorrendo, in questo caso, al paradigma antifreudiano del desiderio e del corpo politico enunciato da Deleuze e Guattari.
A Prayer for Life
Authors: Mantellato Mattia
Published: October 2023

Questo saggio analizza La terra desolata di T. S. Eliot da una prospettiva “ecocritica” (Glotfelty & Fromm 1996; Garrard 2004) e “blu” (Hau’ofa 2008; Ingersoll 2016; Mathieson 2021) ovvero inerente al significato dell’elemento acqua nel poema. Partendo dalle innovazioni estetiche e dall’elemento magico che Eliot ci presenta accanto alla sterilità e al degrado della vita dopo la Prima guerra mondiale, l’articolo si focalizza su tre episodi chiave del poema. Questi presentano le rivoluzioni artistiche di quel periodo e le forze evocative e spirituali provenienti dall’eredità americana di Eliot, nonché dal suo interesse per le religioni e filosofie d’Oriente. La lettura delle carte di Madame Sosostris diventa così una danza moderna di archetipi ‘liquidi’. Tiresia, il profeta e veggente, evoca una pittura cubista e richiama la necessità di visioni ‘fluide’ e positive nella nostra vita. La ripetizione della preghiera dello Shanti celebra il ritmo delle gocce d’acqua, unico elemento che potrà guarire e riconnettere gli abitanti de La terra desolata con la Vita – ‘the One life’. In questa mia lettura “indisciplinata” (Benozzo 2010) considero il poema una preghiera per l’acqua, una richiesta collettiva di “partnership” (Eisler 1988; Eisler & Fry 2019) per una rigenerazione e trasformazione del reale, nel riconoscimento che gli esseri umani rappresentino solo una parte della melodia cosmica del mondo.
Analysis of Turkish language teacher candidates' speech anxiety in terms of various variables in the context of 21st century skills
Authors: DAĞAŞAN Emre
Published: October 2023

The requirements of the 21st century encompass not only grammar and vocabulary but also effective communication through oral, written, and ICT-mediated processes. The teaching profession should be embraced as an art of addressing the student's soul and nurturing individuals. Speech anxiety is a common condition encountered in communication, language learning, and teaching processes, which can negatively affect students' language skills. The aim of this article is to analyze the speech anxiety of Turkish language teacher candidates in terms of various variables. The research was conducted using a survey model where the 'Speech Anxiety Scale,' a 5-point Likert-type scale, was employed. The sample of the study consisted of 200 voluntary Turkish language teacher candidates continuing their education at two different universities in the Eastern Anatolia and Central Anatolia regions in 2023. Descriptive statistics (% and f), independent samples t-test to determine changes in scores based on participants' gender, one-way ANOVA for class levels, and one-way ANOVA analyses to determine score differences based on the grade variable were used in the data analysis. After ANOVA, Dunnett C test was used for determining the differences that emerged. The research examined the levels of speech anxiety of teacher candidates and found that this anxiety was especially prevalent in items such as 'Fear of speaking in front of an audience,' 'Feeling embarrassed when talking about myself to people,' and 'Getting excited when talking to someone of the opposite sex' with 'Always' responses. While no significant differences were found between gender and class levels, factor analysis results revealed that the FF and DC groups had lower environmental-focused anxiety and overall speech anxiety compared to the BA group.

Proximity biotinylation of ATG8 proteins and selective autophagy receptors V2 v1
Authors: JW Harper , Hickey Kelsey , not provided sharan_swarup
Published: October 2023

Autophagy involves the formation of an autophagosome around a cellular cargo, and once encapsulated in this double membrane structure, the autophagosome fuses with the lysosome to facilitate degradation of the cargo. Membrane-bounded organelles such as mitochondria are frequent targets. This protocol concerns the use of proximity biotinylation with the engineered peroxidase APEX2 (doi.org/10.1038/nprot.2016.018) fused with either ATG8 proteins or autophagic cargo receptors in mammalian cells. There are six ATG8 proteins in mammals (MAP1LC3A, B, and C & GABARAP, L1, and L2). These proteins bind LC3 interacting motifs (LIR motifs) on cargo receptors. Therefore, proximity biotinylation can be used to identify proteins that are nearby ATG8 proteins in response to activation of selective autophagy in cells. This protocol uses nutrient stress as the autophagy activator. The protocol builds on a previously published method (Hung et al., 2016)
Steps for setup of AWS organization, S3 data storage, and EC2 computing for using Python notebooks v2

Published: October 2023

With the oncoming age of big data, biologists are encountering more use cases for cloud-based computing to streamline data processing and storage. Unfortunately, cloud platforms are difficult to learn, and there are few resources geared towards biologists for demystifying them. We have developed a guide for experimental biologists to set up cloud processing on Amazon Web Services to cheaply outsource data processing and storage. Here we provide a guide on setting up a computing environment in the cloud and showcase examples of using Python and Julia programming languages. We present example calcium imaging data in the zebrafish brain and corresponding analysis using suite2p software. Tools for management of users and budgets are discussed in the protocol. Following this guide should help researchers even with limited programming experience to get started or move existing coding infrastructure into the cloud environment. The last step in this version contains a supplemental video with extra context and tips, as part of the protocols.io Spotlight series, featuring conversations with protocol authors.)
Whole-cell proteomics and Analysis with or without nutrient stress by Tandem Mass Tagging-based proteomics V2 v1
Authors: Swarup Sharan , Hickey Kelsey
Published: October 2023

The analysis of relative protein abundance has emerged as an important tool in cell biology. Typically, it is possible to quantify >8000 proteins under standard conditions. Tandem Mass Tags (TMT) are isobaric reagents that contain a set of isotopically distinct reporter ions, which can be used to quantify individual peptides in distinct samples through multiplexing(McAlister et al., 2014). Because the TMT analysis is performed in multiplexed format (up to 18 plex), it is possible to examine the effect of different perturbations (treatments, time courses, etc) on the total abundance of the proteome and include replicate samples as desired. This protocol is applicable to many different cell types, although the number of proteins quantified may differ, depending on the complexity of the proteomes in individual cell types. The small amount of protein needed (50-100 μg) makes application of this approach simple for many different types of cells. This protocol explicitly is used to examine the effects of nutrient stress on protein abundance in cell lines with or without autophagy.

Public awareness is one of the most important parts of a city development process. This awareness is part of the form of public response to a policy. One of them is the use of bus transportation. The purpose of this study is to describe the level of public awareness in using public transportation services, especially DAMRI buses. Also, to find out the role of the Bandung branch of the DAMRI branch. The research is motivated by the level of congestion that is increasing every year, and the use of city buses as public transportation in the city of Bandung is decreasing. The approach used is a qualitative approach with a case study method, and data collection techniques use observation, interviews, documentation, and literature studies. The results showed that the level of public awareness in the use of public transportation services in Bandung was still lacking because the awareness that arises from each person can change according to his conditions and environment. Lack of public understanding of facility utilization, also the lack of attractiveness of service providers is one of the factors influencing the use of public transportation. This requires the role and encouragement of various parties, namely the City Government, City and Provincial Transportation Office, Bandung Branch of Perum DAMRI, the community, and other parties together, as an effort to raise public awareness of the use of public transportation services in Bandung

Introduction: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) are the most common skin malignancies in the heterogeneous group of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). Due to increasing incidence these tumours remain significant health problem worldwide.
Methods: We conducted retrospective analysis to evaluate the incidence of primary BCCs and SCCs in our institution from 2003 to 2022, and to correlate it with available clinical data.
Results: We noticed that the incidence of NMSC increased between 2018 and 2022 (p<0.01). Among 1570 patients diagnosed with NMSC, BCC represented 77.9% of cases. BCC was constantly more common type of NMSC with statistically significant difference in the period from 2003-2005 and in the period from 2017- 2022 (p<0.01). Nodular subtype of the BCC was the most common, affecting primarily face. Superficial BCC occurred most commonly on trunk (p<0.01), affecting younger patients than the other histological subtypes (mean age 61.29±13.47 years (p<0.01). High-risk BCCs in men were more common on face and scalp (p<0.05). BCCs were predominantly smaller tumours (<2 cm) in contrast to SCCs with highest incidence in pT2-pT4 group (p<0.01). SCC patients were older (mean age 72.89±9.7) than BCC patients (mean age 65.15±12.80) (p<0.01).
Conclusion: In order to improve prevention strategies and prevent further increase in incidence, there is need to develop current and exact registries of these malignancies, especially separately BCC and SCC.

Highlights

The review analyzes the studies devoted to the possibility of using machine learning methods to predict the occurrence of atrial fibrillation, cardiovascular risk factors, carotid atherosclerosis, and total cardiovascular risk. The combinations of machine learning methods with mobile, cloud and telemedicine technologies have significant prospects. In the near future, such technologies are expected to be used for atrial fibrillation screening and risk stratification using cardiac imaging data. Based on machine learning methods, mobile preventive technologies are being developed, particularly for nutritional behavior management.

 

Abstract

The article reviews the main directions of machine learning (ML) application in the primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and highlights examples of scientific and practical problems solved with its help. Currently, the possibility of using ML to predict cardiovascular risk, occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF), cardiovascular risk factors, carotid atherosclerosis, etc. has been studied. The data of questionnaires, medical examination, laboratory indices, electrocardiography, cardio visualization, medications, genomics and proteomics are used in ML models. The most common classifiers are Random Forest, Support Vector, Neural Networks. As compared to traditional risk calculators many ML algorithms show improvement in prediction accuracy, but no evident leader has been defined yet. Deep ML technologies are at the very early stages of development. Mobile, cloud and telemedicine technologies open new possibilities for collection, storage and the use of medical data and can improve CVD prevention. In the near future, such technologies are expected to be used for atrial fibrillation screening as well as cardiovascular risk stratification using cardiac imaging data. Moreover, the addition of them to traditional risk factors provides the most stable risk estimates. There are examples of mobile ML technologies use to manage risk factors, particularly eating behavior. Attention is paid to such problems, as need to avoid overestimating the role of artificial intelligence in healthcare, algorithms’ bias, cybersecurity, ethical issues of medical data collection and use. Practical applicability of ML models and their impact on endpoints are currently understudied. A significant obstacle to implementation of ML technologies in healthcare is the lack of experience and regulation.
O Enigma da Súplica Constitucional Portuguesa de 1808
Authors: Domingues José , Moreira Vital
Published: October 2023

A Súplica constitucional de 1808 foi a primeira tentativa para introduzir o constitucionalismo moderno em Portugal, mas sem sucesso. Com efeito, a petição dirigida a Napoleão Bonaporte, no contexto da primeira invasão francesa (1807/08), pedindo um rei francês uma Constituição semelhante à do Grão-Ducado de Varsóvia, caducou com o fim da ocupação francesa, pouco tempo depois. A reação popular contra a invasão gerou um movimento de rejeição antifrancesa, que levou à destruição geral dos documentos oficiais desse período. Em 1810, Acúrsio das Neves forjou uma versão, segundo a qual a Súplica não teria passado de uma iniciativa em segredo de um grupo de intelectuais afrancesados e teria sido apresentada pelo juiz do povo de Lisboa na Junta dos Três Estados do reino, em sessão de 23 de maio de 1808, sem desenvolvimento posterior. Este artigo diverge dessa versão tradicional, que tem prevalecido há mais de duzentos anos, e propõe uma leitura diferente sobre a origem e a importância da Súplica constitucional portuguesa.
