Fruits and vegetables are considered as good source of functional foods due to their health benefits and nutritional content. Dietary constituents of fruits and vegetable are commonly available and has significant application in management of chronic diseases such as; coronary heart disease, stroke, cancer and diabetes, many medicinal purposes, control of excess weight and obesity due to high fiber content present. Many phenolic compounds had been identified in garden eggplant such as; catechin, rutin, naringin, naringenin, syringic acid, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, p-coumaric acid, sinapic acid and anthocyanin. Health-conscious consumers generally focus on the antioxidant capacity, and the phenolic content, vitamins, carotenoids and phytochemicals. All varieties of garden egg vary in polyphenol endowed with antioxidant activity. Polyphenolic compounds and antioxidant activity in eggplants which depend on the cultivar, maturity stage and parts of the fruit. Growing conditions are also reported to significantly affect the phenolic contents. This review discussed the polyphenolic contents and antioxidant activities of different eggplant cultivars. Priority was given to green, white and dark-purple cultivars which are commonly grown in Nigeria. White and green eggplants possess higher phenolic contents when compared with dark purple eggplant which possesses higher antioxidant capacity. They contain about 92% water, 5% protein, copper (0.62mg/100g), magnesium (81.69mg/100g), potassium (87.22mg/100g), sodium (32.51mg/100g), irons (31.41mg/100g), zinc (1.41mg/100g), carbohydrate (7.2 g/100g), fibers (2.0g/100g), calcium (28 mg/100g), iron (1.5 mg/100g) and considerable amount of beta carotene (0.35 mg/100g), ascorbic acid (8 mg/100g), riboflavin (0.06 mg/100g) and thiamin (0.07 mg/100g). The species of African eggplant have nutritional and therapeutic values and can be used in the development of functional foods and these bioactive compounds are responsible for high functions of eggplants and provide antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, hepatoprotective, antithrombotic, antiviral, anti-carcinogenic and vasodilatory properties in humans.

Authors: Umar Siyudi Shafi’I , Iro Zaharaddeen S. , Zandam Abubakar Y. , Shitu Saifulllahi Sadi
Published: April 2023

Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) is an object detection algorithm used to detect people from an image. It involves features extraction called ‘HOG descriptor’ which are used to identify a person in the image. Several operations are involved in the feature extraction process. Hence performing numerous computations in order to obtain HOG descriptors takes some considerable amount of time. This slow computation speed limits HOG’s application in real-time systems. This paper investigates HOG with a view to improve its speed, modify the feature computation process to develop a faster version of HOG and finally evaluate against existing HOG. The technique of asymptotic notation in particular Big-O notation was applied to each stage of HOG and the complexity for the binning stage was modified. This results in a HOG version with a reduced complexity from n4 to n2 thereby having an improved speed as compared to the original HOG.
Giardiasis of domestic animals and its zoonotic significance: A review
Authors: Ayana Dinka
Published: April 2023

Giardiasis is the most common waterborne parasitic intestinal infection ofboth animals and humans worldwide, and it leads to significant morbidity and mortality in animals, particularly in young aged group like calves in the developing and developed world. It is a zoonotic infectious disease where animals are considered as sources of infection for humans through consumption of water and food contaminated with cysts of Giardia. Giardia species differ significantly in host range, with G. duodenalis having the broadest host range and greatest public health significance. Giardia duodenalis has eight different assemblages A through H. The disease Causes gastro intestinal disturbance, gall bladder colic and jaundice. Malabsorption and maldigestion mainly result from a diffuse shortening of epithelial microvillus. Giardia duodenalis (synonyms intestinalis, lamblia) is a flagellate binucleated protozoan, and it has two morphological forms: cysts and trophozoites. The life cycle of Giardia is direct, and the infective stage of the parasite, the cyst, is encysted when released into the feces and is immediately infectious. Trophozoites are pear-shaped, binucleate, multi-flagellated parasite forms and are the disease causing stage and colonize the upper small intestine, where they adhere to the epithelial surface and proliferate by binary fission. Infected animals, contaminated water and feed are main sources of infection. Age of animals, season of the year, area, housing, feeding, management practices are usually considered as risk factors for the occurrence of giardiasis. The infection can be transmitted by the fecal-oral route, or through contaminated food and water. To survive within the intestine, Giardia undergoes antigenic variation and few virulent factors have been identified to be responsible for the infection. These include ventral adhesive disc proteins and surface lectins, the four pairs of flagella which allow for movement and variant surface proteins. The clearance of Giardia from a host requires both innate and adaptive immunity effector mechanisms. The infection can be diagnosed by examining fecal specimens using different coproscopic techniques, serological tests and by molecular analysis. Restricting animals from surface water during periods of high cyst shedding may reduce watershed contamination. Health education on personal and environmental hygiene would help in reducing the occurrence of the infection. This review work tries to gather information on giardiasis of domestic animals with respect to its epidemiology, host immune responses, pathophysiology, distribution and its public health importance.

Authors: Tadesse Abebayehu , Acklock Wondimagegn
Published: April 2023

A cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2021 to April 2022 to estimate the prevalence of bovine fasciolosis, assess the risk factors, and estimate the direct financial loss due to liver condemnation in cattle slaughtered at Yirgalem municipal abattoir. Furthermore, the comparison of the diagnostic efficiency of fecal and postmortem examination was evaluated. The study was based on both postmortem inspection of the liver for liver fluke infection and coprological examination using the sedimentation technique. Thus, a total of 400 cattle were sampled using systemic random sampling techniques and the prevalence was 27.0% (108/400) and 20.8% (83/400), by postmortem and coprological examination, respectively. The prevalence of F. hepatica, F. gigantica, mixed infections, and unidentified species were 56.5%, 19.4%, 16.7%, and 7.4%, respectively. The difference between age groups was statically significant (p<0.05). Coprological examination revealed the highest prevalence was recorded in the age group of > 7 years old (34%, adjusted odds ratio [AOR]=4.2) followed by 4-6 years old adults (26.8%, AOR=4.2) and in young cattle of <3 years old (6.7%). Prevalence by postmortem examination was 43.0% (AOR=4 0), 27.8% (AOR= 2.4), and 8.3%, for age groups > 7 years old, 4-6 years old adults and in young cattle of <3 years old, respectively. The body condition score result revealed a significant difference (p<0.05) as a greater magnitude of infections were detected in poor body condition animals (AOR=7.7) than in medium and good body condition (p<0.05). Considering the liver examination as a gold standard for diagnosis of fasciolosis, the sensitivity of the sedimentation technique was 76.8%, and the specificity of 100% with a very good agreement (kappa = 0.94) between the two methods. The total financial loss per annum due to the condemnation of infected liver was 945, 999 ETB (18,192.288 USD). Therefore, strategic control and prevention of the snail intermediate host should be implemented. Furthermore, upon diagnosis of fasciolosis, epidemiological information about the disease with suggestive clinical examination should be considered even in the absence of Fasciola eggs during coprological examinations and also other parasitological techniques such as the FLOTAC and FLUKE FINDER methods with high sensitivity and specificity should be employed.

Authors: Shittu O. M. , Achugasim O.
Published: April 2023

Transportation of waxy crude oil faces great challenges in pipelines, however, pour-point depressant could be employed to improve flow properties of waxy crude oil by modifying the morphology and structure of wax crystals. In this paper, modified and unmodified jatropha curcas seed oils was used as a green pour point depressants to evaluate the flow properties of a Nigerian waxy crude oil. Jatropha curcas seed oil (49.5%) was extracted using petroleum ether and the oil was analyzed for oil quality parameters (acid value, iodine value, free fatty acid and saponification value) and subsequently modified using diethanolamine and ethylene glycol to give fatty amides and glycol esters with sulphamic acid (2% and 10% respectively) as catalysts. The modified products were characterized using Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The modified and unmodified Jatropha seed oils were used treat a Nigerian waxy crude oil to determine their effects on the pour point of the said crude oil. This was done by determining the viscosity and pour point of the crude oil before and after it is dosed with different concentrations of the modified and unmodified Jatropha oils. The results revealed the efficiency of the fatty amides to reduce the pour point and viscosity of the crude oil from 180C to 150C and from 3.49 cst. to 2.0 cst respectively. Both ethylene glycol-modified Jatropha seed oil and the unmodified Jatropha seed oil were able to also depress the pour point of the crude oil to the same degree showing that modification with ethylene glycol did not improve the ability of ordinary Jatropha seed oil to act as pour point depressant.

Was the Constitution of May Third of 1791 a Source of Inspiration for 19th Century Polish Constitutional Drafts? The Problem of Using Polish Constitutional Heritage in the Congress Kingdom of Poland in 1815 and 1831

The article focuses on the problem of using the legal heritage based on the example of the May Third Constitution. This issue is considered in relation to two selected moments in the history of the Congress Kingdom of Poland – 1814/1815 and 1831. What connects them, and at the same time makes them unique periods in the political and constitutional history of Polish territories under the partitions, is the relative freedom the Polish elites had in their right to decide on the constitutional foundations of their own statehood. In 1814/1815, Prince Adam Jerzy Czartoryski was granted the emperor’s consent to prepare a draft which, after corrections, became the basis of the Constitutional Act granted by Alexander I. Similarly in 1831, after the dethronement of Tsar Nicholas I, the insurgent elites were free to embark on an unfettered constitutional debate on the systemic reform of the state. Both in 1814/1815 and in 1831, Polish political and intellectual elites faced a dilemma as to whether the May Third Constitution could serve mainly as a monument and symbol of Polish history, or whether it still had the potential to be directly applied; and if so, then to what extent and under what conditions. The publication is devoted to exploring answers to these questions.

Kim Tschang-Yeul: The Way of Water

From the series Event of the Night in 1972 to Neige in 2003, via Gouttes d'eau (1979-2013), the painter Kim Tschang Yeul has developed a poetics of formlessness in which negation, emptiness and absence direct the creative process. The Korean plastic artist offers through the materiality of the work a meditation on the fluence of worlds and forms. The drop of water expresses the precariousness of things, but also evokes a beyond of representation whose richness is as great as its restraint. Water is the metaphor of the void without which the full cannot unfold; it introduces the practice of non-action, which does not consist in doing nothing but in letting the supporting factors at work in the form happen. The creative process abstains from any intentional action, to let the invisible power of the tao act.
Pierre Klossowski. L’acte créateur de l’écrivain-peintre
Authors: Klettke Cornelia
Published: April 2023

The Creative Act of the Writer-Painter

Klossowski, who had originally started as a religious seeker of truth in his younger years, will – after his « reversal » – feel himself invested with the role of a « heretic » struggling with the libidinous search for truth. Even as the creator of a perverted metaphysics, he remains a seeker of the revelation of being, now in the role of the divine « adversary » who, thrown back on himself, tends to imitate a religious mystic. The divine is replaced by the whispers of the demon, which Klossowski experiences as « la complicité d'une force "démonique" » in the creation of his artworks. The Diana myth becomes a parable for the act of artistic creation. Sexuality, understood as the primordial ground of creative force that shapes the signe unique, the phantasm, shifts metaphysics to « phantasmaphysics » (Foucault), in which the mystery of the divine is exposed as a delusion (Wahnbild).

Published: April 2023

Music generation using Artificial Intelligence/ Machine learning (AI/ML) is a rapidly growing research area that aims to create algorithms capable of producing musical compositions autonomously. This paper provides an overview of the latest developments in the area of AI/ML-based music generation. The deep learning models have demonstrated promise in music generation, including Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), long short-term memory (LSTM), WaveNet, Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT), and Genetic Algorithms (GA). A review of the existing research work on the creation of different music genres such as classical, jazz, and pop music using these models is covered. The challenges in music generation are covered, including the difficulty in evaluating the quality and creativity of the generated music along with the social issues surrounding the ownership and copyright of the created music. The development of AI/ML-based music generation systems has made significant advances in recent years. The ability to create an infinite number of original musical compositions is one of the main benefits of employing AI/ML algorithms for music production. Content producers can utilize these technologies to rapidly and easily create original soundtracks for their projects, which can be of special utility to them. Moreover, the advancement in the music generating systems could make it possible for more people to contribute to the creation of music, regardless of their level of technical or musical proficiency. As technology develops, it might also create previously unimagined opportunities for new forms of musical expression. The applications include helping musicians with their work and creating music for video games and movies

Authors: Blinov V. I.
Published: April 2023

The development of secondary vocational education in Russia under the influence of socio-economic factors requires full-fledged scientific and methodological support. Among scientific research, an important role is played by works related to forecasting, which is not limited to attempts to predict the future, but prepares for the adoption of promising management decisions, creates a meaningful ground for frontier developments of a scientific and scientific-methodological nature.

Many aspects of the development of secondary vocational education are deservedly called “eternal”, since the issues of material and technical support, qualification and training of teaching staff, the ratio of fundamental and practical orientation acquire new meanings at any stage of socio-economic development of society. It seems that the development of vocational education takes place according to the laws of reciprocating motion or a pendulum. From the pragmatic mission of providing the economy with personnel, to the humanitarian mission of comprehensive and harmonious personal development, bypassing the state of equilibrium. At the same time, the previous configurations of the system have never been repeated in full yet. This suggests that it is advisable to apply to many research topics repeatedly, without fear of coming to previously obtained results.

Modern pedagogy of vocational education needs reliable information about current topics, which makes it possible to make research really useful for the development of practice, to prepare researchers to solve problems of a proactive nature.

Covid-19 pandemisi, dünyada toplumları her alanda etkilemiş olup, sağlık ve eğitim faaliyetleri üzerinde de olumsuz etki yaratmıştır. Bu durum, sağlık hizmetinde yürütülen hizmet içi eğitim programlarının sürdürülmesine de yansımıştır. Sağlık Bilimleri Üniversitesi Etlik Zübeyde Hanım Kadın Hastalıkları Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi, eğitim faaliyetlerinden “Yenidoğan Yoğun Bakım Hemşireliği Sertifika Programı”nı çevrim içi platformda yürütmüştür. Bu modeli, ülkemizde birçok kurs merkezine, yüz-yüze eğitime destek olabilecek bir eğitim modeli olarak geliştirmiştir. Çevrim içi kurs programı, üç farklı dönemde toplam 48 kursiyer ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Eğitim programının sonunda; yüz-yüze teorik sınav ve çevrimiçi eğitim değerlendirme anketi uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar yüz-yüze eğitim dönemine ait üç farklı dönemdeki 48 kursiyerin verileri ile karşılaştırılmış ve SPSS 17.00 programı kullanılmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesi sayı, yüzde, ortalama, standart sapma ve t testi ile yapılmıştır. Yüz-yüze (ortalama:91,15±4,81) ve çevrim içi (ortalama:92,62±4,90) eğitime katılan kursiyerlerin başarı puanları benzerdir (p>0,05). “Genel olarak eğitimden memnun muydunuz?” sorusuna yüz-yüze eğitime katılan kursiyer %83’ü “çok iyi” veya “iyi” olarak cevaplarken, bu oran online eğitim alan kursiyerlerde %88 olarak belirlenmiştir. Aynı zamanda, kurs başarısının her iki eğitim modelinde de yüksek olduğu, bu eğitimlerin hemşirelerin bilgi düzeyini artırdığı saptanmıştır. Ek olarak, sertifikalı çalışan sağlık profesyoneli sayısının %23’ten %48’e çıktığı, bu sonucun da özellikli alanlarda çalışan personelin gelişimine önemli bir katkı sağladığı belirlenmiştir. Bu bakımdan, uygulamanın özellikle sağlık hizmeti sunulan alanlarda gerçekleştirilen eğitim modellerine örnek oluşturacağı ve eğitim faaliyetlerinin sürdürülebilirliği açısından kalite yönetim sistemi içerisinde güvenilir sağlık hizmeti sunumuna büyük bir katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.

Introdução: A vigilância da qualidade da água é a principal estratégia para garantir sua segurança e potabilidade para consumo humano. Entre os parâmetros analisados destaca-se o fluoreto em decorrência dos riscos e benefícios para a saúde resultantes de sua ingestão. Objetivos: Analisar a estrutura e o grau de implementação das atividades de vigilância da qualidade da água de abastecimento público em relação ao parâmetro fluoreto entre os Estados brasileiros, incluindo o Distrito Federal. Métodos: Foram utilizados dados obtidos por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas com responsáveis pela vigilância da água. O grau de implementação foi considerado incipiente, intermediário ou avançado, conforme critérios e indicadores definidos com base no modelo lógico. Resultados: Apenas sete unidades federativas realizavam a vigilância do parâmetro fluoreto. As demais necessitavam de melhor estruturação, incentivo e/ou interação entre os níveis de governo, os órgãos de vigilância e os especialistas para a implementação de atividades de forma abrangente. Conclusão: Para alcançar um grau avançado de implementação da vigilância da qualidade da água em relação ao fluoreto em todas as unidades da federação, mecanismos de coordenação e do processo de governança dessa política nesse subsetor institucional do setor saúde deveriam ser aprimorados.

Toward Better Posture: A Wearable Back Posture Alerting Device
Authors: Huang Calista , Kelly Jim
Published: April 2023

Back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, preventing many people from engaging in work or other everyday activities. Good posture entails training your body to develop a habit that exerts the least amount of pressure on supporting ligaments and muscles; however, posture is not consciously maintained. Instead, muscle groups automatically support and enable flexing the spine, meaning efforts to consciously improve posture will ultimately fail. Over time, muscles develop habits that can put extra strain on the back and make correcting posture difficult. The greatest contributor to postural problems is poor everyday postural habits, common in a work environment that requires long hours of sitting or standing. Harmful consequences of poor posture include misalignment of the spine, back pain, sore muscles, improper lung function, blood vessel constrictions, improper gait, and proneness to injury. Reversing bad posture should be tackled as soon as the problem is identified, and having an easily accessible posture monitoring device would be useful in preventing long-term detrimental effects of bad posture. In this project, I developed and tested a wearable garment that monitors, evaluates, and communicates real-time sensory feedback of back posture.

Objective. To examine the bibliometric characteristics of high-cited publications (HCPs) on Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD).
Design/Methodology/Approach. The Scopus database was searched to identify HCPs on OCD published from 2002 to 2021. Three-hundred and ninety-five (n=395) articles having at least 100 citations were included in the analysis. Quantitative and qualitative indicators were applied to measure and evaluate the research productivity and citation impact of authors from the most productive countries, organizations, and authors. The VOSviewer was used to visualize the collaborative interaction among the most productive countries, organizations, authors, and keywords.
Results/Discussion. The 395 HCPs published on OCD during 2012-2021 were cited 75197 times. The authors from the United States (n = 216), United Kingdom (n = 59), Netherlands (n =37), and Canada (n=30) were the most productive. Clinical studies accounted for the largest publications share among publication types, followed by studies focusing on treatment, epidemiology, genetics, risk factors, pathophysiology, and complications. Among important keywords besides OCD, other most common keywords were anxiety (n=89), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (n=87), Clomipramine (n=68), Fluoxetine (n=65), and Behavioural Therapy (n=53). The topmost productive organizations were the Harvard Medical School, USA (n=37), Massachusetts General Hospital, USA (n=36), Columbus University, USA (n-28), and New York State Psychiatric Institute, USA (n=27). The most productive authors were D. Mataix-Cols (Sweden)(n=21), followed by B.D. Greenberg (USA)(n=18), S.L. Rauch (USA)(n=17) and D.J. Stein (South Africa)(n=17). These 395 HCPs were published in 135 journals, with The American Journal of Psychiatry publishing many papers. Papers published in Neuroscience and Bio-Behavioral Reviews had the highest number of citations per paper (n=509.0).
Conclusion. The present study suggests that most HCPs have emerged from the United States, are based on funded research, and have involved authors from more than one country.
Originality/Value. This study presents significant results, in a more comprehensive manner, related to the high-cited publications (HCPs) on Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD).
