Hz. Mevlânâ’nın Mesnevî Adlı Eserinde Bir İmtihan Biçimi Olarak Hastalık Meselesi
Authors: ÖZDEMİR Sema
Published: May 2024

Hazrat Rumi's Mathnawi has been accepted as a spiritual guide by the sûfîs since the day it was written. Mathnawi, on the one hand, sheds light on the preparation of the reader for the life in the hereafter, and on the other hand, gives important clues about how he should be in an attitude and feeling when faced with worldly tests. In this context, many issues such as separation, illness, death, losses, financial difficulties, problems in human relations are presented to the reader either directly by opening a title or in a scattered form in various stories. Considering the topics in question, one of the most striking points in question is the mention of disease. Accordingly, Hazrat Mawlana discusses subjects like "What is the truth of the disease?", "Why are people tested by the disease?", "What kind of meaning should be attached to the disease?", "What is the condition of the patient in the sight of God?". On the other hand, he emphasized that the main issue was to get rid of spiritual diseases and the temporariness of bodily ailments, and directed attention to the healing of the soul. In this communiqué, the issue of how Hazrat Mawlana evaluates the issue of illness in his Mathnawi and what kind of perspective he offers to the person who is tested by the disease will be discussed. As a matter of fact, a significant majority of people who want to make sense of the severe illnesses they experience today want to receive psychological support, and some of them state that they need spiritual guidance. In this context, it is beyond doubt that Mathnawi's guidance will fill an extremely important gap. Key Words: Mawlânâ, Mathnawî, Exam, Disease.

HEALTH STATUS, PHYSICAL FITNESS AND CORRELATES TO PHYSICAL ACTIVITY OF CHILDREN IN SOUTH ITALY
Authors: Monacis Domenico , Sannicandro Italo , Colella Dario
Published: May 2024

The inverse relationship between sedentary habits, physical fitness, self-perception, and enjoyment during physical activity (PA) has been widely demonstrated by international literature. Furthermore, according to recent epidemiological report, Italy is one of the European countries with the highest prevalence of overweight and obese children and adolescents. The present study aims to assess physical fitness levels, self-perception and enjoyment in a sample of 3676 primary school children (M = 1861, F = 1815, mean age = 9-10 years) attending the SBAM! project in Apulia, Southern Italy. The objective is to provide epidemiological data of the health status of children through the assessment of BMI Z-scores, physical fitness and factors related to the practice of PA. The following physical fitness test were proposed: standing long jump, (SLJ), shuttle run 10x4, (10x4), and 6 minutes walk test (6MWT), to assess lower limb explosive strength, agility and coordination, and aerobic endurance, respectively. Two validated questionnaires were used to assess self-perception and enjoyment. Results showed a large percentage of children that were overweight/obese or underweight, and a negative relation with physical fitness test and questionnaires. Moreover, normal weight sample had better motor performance, self-perception, and enjoyment during PA than underweight or overweight/obese groups. These results confirm the needs to promote and develop projects and institutional interventions aimed at enhancing physical activity and healthy lifestyles in Southern Italy.

Training routine is beneficial for people with intellectual disabilities, increasing their physical fitness, improving the balance and consequently reducing the risk of falls. However, during the COVID-19 breakdown, training restrictions could impair these benefits. This is a two-fold study aimed to compare the physical fitness performance and balance in table tennis athletes with intellectual disability (ID) during 2016 and 2022; and to analyse the association between the fitness and balance parameters. Table tennis athletes with ID, from both sexes and members of the Special Olympics Czech Republic, were assessed in 2016 (n=33) or 2022 (n=32). The FUNfitness protocol was used to measure the physical fitness parameters and balance (e.g., functional shoulder rotation, timed sit-to-stand test, partial sit-up test, handgrip test, single leg stance eyes open, single leg stance eyes closed). Comparison and correlation statistical tests were used (p<0.05). The physical fitness parameters and balance presented no statistically significant between the years (2016 vs 2022) or better results in 2022 (single leg stance, partial sit-up test). The correlation of physical fitness parameters and balance demonstrated that balance is positively related to flexibility (single leg stance eyes closed: r=0.32 and 0.58 for males and females, respectively) and lower limb strength (single leg stance eyes open: r=-0.31 and -0.52 for males and females, respectively). In conclusion, the development of flexibility and low limb strength in ID population can help improve the balance, and consequently minimize the risk of falls.
BUOYANCY ASSESSED WITH FLOATING TESTS AND UNDERWATER WEIGHING. A PILOT STUDY
Authors: Kapus Jernej , Jazbec Jure , Prevc Petra , Rauter Samo , Štirn Igor
Published: May 2024

The aim of the present study was to compare the buoyancy assessed by floating tests with the buoyancy calculated using the variables measured during underwater weighing. We also aimed to evaluate the relationship between assessed buoyancy and body composition. Twenty-seven women (age: 20 ± 3 years, height: 1.66 ± 0.34 m, weight: 62 ± 7 kg; body mass index: 22 ± 2; vital capacity: 4.26 ± 0.47 l) and twenty-six men (age: 19 ± 2 years, height: 1.81 ± 6.76 m, weight: 79 ± 10 kg body mass index: 24 ± 3; vital capacity: 6.05 ± 0.7 l) volunteered to participate in the study. They performed floating tests, underwater weighing, pulmonary function measurement, and body composition procedure on the same day in random order with a 30-minute break. Floating testing consisted of one horizontal (HT) and two vertical tests with different arm positions, i.e., arms adducted to the body (VT1) or arms extended overhead (VT2). We assessed participants' buoyancy (B-HT, B-VT1, and B-VT2). In addition, we calculated participants' body volume and buoyancy (B-c) using variables measured during underwater weighing. Results showed that B-c was moderately correlated with B-VT1 (Spearman's ρ = 0.51; p < 0.001) and B-VT2 (Spearman's ρ = 0.55; p < 0.001), but not with B-HT. Multiple regression analysis showed that vital capacity and muscle mass had a positive and negative effect, respectively, on the scores of buoyancy assessed by vertical floating tests. In addition, the mass of the arms correlated negatively with the scores of buoyancy assessed by VT2 (β = -6.26; p = 0.005). According to the obtained results, we can conclude that both vertical floating tests i.e. with arms adducted to the body or arms extended overhead are suitable substitutes for underwater weighing to determine buoyancy, which is strongly related to vital capacity and lesser extent to muscle mass. Muscle mass is not a factor that can be changed immediately, while the amount of inspiration can be regulated. Therefore, the control of breathing and thus the reduction or increase of buoyancy is an important skill that novice swimmers should acquire as part of the learn-to-swim program.

Published: May 2024

Secular trends in body height and body mass serve as critical indicators of a population's nutrition, health, and overall well-being. This comprehensive study delves into the anthropometric data of Slovenian young adults spanning a remarkable 65-year period, comparing these findings with secular trends observed in other populations. Data acquisition was accomplished through the utilization of the SLOfit system and the integration of earlier research studies in Slovenia. Height and body mass measurements were collected employing standardized methodologies. Generalized Additive Models for Location, Scale, and Shape (GAMLSS) were harnessed to derive centile curves and establish reference values. Slovenian males consistently grew taller than females, reaching their peak in 2019. Young Slovenian adults continue to grow taller and gain more body mass, with substantial changes in recent years. The largest changes in body mass in both males and females occurred in years between 2015 and 2019, with wider spreads in mass centiles in these years compared to the beginning of the observed period. Healthcare and diet improvements likely contributed to increased body mass, yet sedentary lifestyles and altered diets may also be involved. This research enhances our understanding of environmental, and socio-economic factors in human growth, with implications for public health policies and long-term planning. While this study spans 65 years, it faces limitations in measurement consistency and demographic data. Future research should explore region-specific influences on these trends. In conclusion, monitoring secular trends in body height and body mass is crucial for evidence-based policymaking, health planning, and public health interventions, enabling the promotion of healthy lifestyles and the proactive management of emerging health challenges.
NEUROMUSCULAR COMPONENT OF MUSCLE QUALITY ASSESSMENT IN OLDER ADULTS: NARRATIVE REVIEW
Authors: Puš Katarina , Šimunič Boštjan
Published: May 2024

The concept of muscle quality encompasses both micro- and macroscopic aspects of muscle architecture and composition and has gained increasing attention with inclusion in the definition of sarcopenia, indicating the significance of muscle quality in evaluating muscle function and strength among older individuals. Muscle quality consists of two main components: neuromuscular and morphological and is often defined as the ratio between the two. The aim of this review is to present currently used methods for assessment of muscle quality with an emphasis on neuromuscular component in older adults. The most used methods for assessing morphological component are imaging techniques, such as magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and non-imaging bioimpedance analysis. In the neuromuscular component upper and lower body strength are assessed with different methods such as hand grip strength, isokinetic lower limb strength and isometric lower limb strength. Currently, there are three proposed muscle quality assessment methods for field or population studies: muscle quality index, ultrasound sarcopenia index and bioimpedance-derived phase angle. Despite the exploration of muscle quality through various assessment methods, a consensus on the most appropriate and universally applicable approach has yet to be established.

ANALYZE THE IMPACT OF RISING COUNTRIES IN THE PRESENT GLOBAL CONTEXT: A COMPARATIVE STUDY AMONG CHINA BRAZIL AND INDIA
Authors: Dr. Zubaida Aziz
Published: May 2024

The US and other highly industrialized states' long-standing domination in the global economy is under challenge from the rise of developing economies like China, India, and Brazil. The global economy is evolving. At the same time, changes have been made to a number of international governance organizations to enhance the major growing economies represented. This article looks at the World Trade Organization, a key structure in the international regulation of trade, and the contributions and impact that Brazil, India, and China have had inside it. These shifts in power, which the rising nations are really influencing greatly, have resulted in the breakdown of multilateralism and the stillbirth of neoliberals at the WTO. There is now a battle between the new and old powers, despite the fact that the new powers are opposing US hegemony rather than the WTO's neoliberal worldview.

Published: May 2024

The aim of the research. Development of an additional diagnostic criterion for the early detection of CIRCI accompanied by vascular insufficiency in critically ill patients using ECMO.

Materials and methods. A prospective cohort study was performed in the intensive care unit (29 patients on ECMO). Patients with CIRCI were divided into: Ia (with vascular insufficiency and hyponatremia) and Ib (vascular insufficiency without hyponatremia). Both groups were treated with hydrocortisone when vasopressor requirements were ≥0,2 mcg/kg/min. Corticoresistance index CRI = 536 (nmol/l) / patient’s total cortisol value (nmol/l).

Results. According to the results of a comparative analysis, in group Ia the CRI compared to group Ib on the day of initiation of ECMO was higher Me 2,2-1,2, p = 0,03; in the last day ECMO was lower – 0,2-0,8 p = 0,003. Patients in group Ia were older in age (Me 58 vs. 33 years). On the day of ECMO initiation, patients did not differ significantly on the SOFA. Mortality in group Ia is 90,9%, in group Ib – 50%, p <0,05.

Conclusions. A prognostically high risk of developing corticoresistance and high mortality was observed in patients of the older age group with vascular insufficiency and hyponatremia when connected to ECMO with a corticoresistance index ≥2,2. Patients in the older age group (Me 58 years old) need to be prescribed hydrocortisone before the development of hyponatremia, an increase in the corticoresistance index ≥ 2,2, and therefore, it is not recommended to focus on the need for vasopressors ≥0,2 mcg/kg/min.

The aim of the research. Examine the features of prevalence of asthenia in patients with chronic noncommunicable diseases in real clinical practice.

Materials and methods. Research includes 2 373 patients, who are under the general practitioner’s care for chronic noncommunicable diseases. These patients are 1 337 (56,3%) women and 1 036 (43,7%) men. The average age of them is 56,3±15,0 year. We asked about complains, took anamnesis, examined the organs’ systems, and reviewed patients’ cards. According these data we confirmed the diagnosis of chronic noncommunicable disease. We diagnosed asthenia thanks to Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory – 20, MFI-20 and Fatigue Severity Scale, FSS. Statistic data processing was made with applying of Mann–Whitney U test

Results. The largest amount of patients, who we examined, have cardiovascular diseases (1 474 patients, 62,1%). More than one half of all examined patients are from 18 to 60 years (1349 patients). According MFI-20, 847 patients have asthenia (35,7%). According FSS, 701 patients have it (29,5%). 57,1% patients with asthenia are people elder 61 year (484 patients). Moreover, 334 citizens among elderly patients have polymorbidity (69,1%). The level of severity of asthenia is utterly higher in patients who elder 61 year (p < 0,001). Patients with multimorbidity have more sever asthenia that patients who have only one disease (p < 0,001).

Conclusion. Results of large spread of asthenia in patients with chronic noncommunicable diseases underline the necessity of awareness of general practitioners about right assessment of asthenia in real clinical practice, especially in elderly patients with multimorbidity.

Published: May 2024

The literature review examines the composition and properties of maternal breast milk and its impact on the complex process of human body development from the standpoint of modern pediatric science and practice. Various artificial feeding mixtures have a lot in common with breast milk for a number of nutrients, but there is no ideal replacement. The composition of breast milk can vary significantly depending on the lactation period, the effects of environmental factors, including the diet and lifestyle of the mother. It is noted that vitamins D and K may not be enough to ensure the normal growth of the child, therefore their additional subsidy is recommended. Previously, it was believed that breast milk of a healthy woman is sterile. However, several subsequent studies have found the presence of a diverse microflora in breast milk. Finally, mother's milk contains microRNA, which plays a role in various functions, such as immunoprotection and programming of further human development. Thus, from the perspective of rational feeding, maternal breast milk is the best possible source of nutrition for the baby.

TOLL-LIKE RECEPTORS AND BRONCHIAL ASTHMA: PART 1
Authors: Mineeva А. А. , Makarova L. V. , Antonov О. V.
Published: May 2024

Bronchial asthma is a chronic disease of the respiratory tract, which is formed by the action of endogenous factors and environmental influences. At the same time, T-helpers of the second type play a major role in the development of bronchial asthma, causing hyperreactivity and inflammation of the respiratory tract. However, the data that bronchial asthma in most cases is an allergic, eosinophilic, T-helper-mediated disease of the second type is insufficient to establish complete control over the course of disease. This is probably due to the fact that endogenous factors play an important role in the pathogenesis of asthma, knowledge of which is currently limited. Toll-like receptors are an established element of the development of bronchial asthma. Their insufficient function or, conversely, the launch of an excessive immune response is associated with the initiation of the disease or its exacerbations. Expanding the understanding of Toll-like receptors leads not only to a more detailed understanding of the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma, but also to the application of this knowledge in practice.

The On power integral bases of certain pure number fields defined by $x^{120}-m $
Authors: Didi Jalal , Ben Yakkou Hamid
Published: May 2024

Let $K$ be a pure number field with $\alpha$ a complex root of a monic irreducible polynomial $F(x) = x^{120}-m \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ with $ m \neq \pm 1 $. In this paper, we study the monogenity of $K$. More precisely, we prove that if $m$ is square-free, $m \not \equiv 1\md{4}$, $m \not \equiv \pm 1 \md{9} $, and $\ol{m}\not \in \{ \mp 1, 7, 18 \} \md {25}$, then $K$ is monogenic. On the other hand, if $m \equiv 1\md{4}$, $m \equiv 1 \md{9} $, or $m \equiv 1 \md{25}$, then $K$ is not monogenic. Our results are illustrated by some computational examples.
Sentinels of nth-order insensitivity
Authors: Hafdallah Abdelhak
Published: May 2024

This study generalizes the definition of the sentinel function, which was introduced by J.L. Lions to study identification problems, to a more insensitive kind of sentinel which is applied to identify pollution terms of the polynomial form w. r. t. the real λ. The main idea is to reconstruct the sentinel function to be nth-order independent of the incomplete data. Contrary to the original definition, information about the pollution term with an error of order n+1 is given by the sentinel of nth-order insensitivity.
Feasibility and limitations of combined treatment for lateral pelvic lymph node metastases in rectal cancer
Authors: Zheng Ying-Zi , Yan Fang-Fang , Luo Lian-Xiang
Published: May 2024

Colorectal cancer ranks among the most commonly diagnosed cancers globally, and is associated with a high rate of pelvic recurrence after surgery. In efforts to mitigate recurrence, pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) is commonly advocated as an adjunct to radical surgery. Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) is a therapeutic approach employed in managing locally advanced rectal cancer, and has been found to increase the survival rates. Chua et al have proposed a combination of NACRT with selective PLND for addressing lateral pelvic lymph node metastases in rectal cancer patients, with the aim of reducing recurrence and improving survival outcomes. Nevertheless, certain studies have indicated that the addition of PLND to NACRT and total mesorectal excision did not yield a significant reduction in local recurrence rates or improvement in survival. Consequently, meticulous patient selection and perioperative chemotherapy may prove indispensable in ensuring the efficacy of PLND.
Integrated System Responses for Families Impacted by Violence: A Scoping Review
Authors: Gear Claire , Ting Chien , Manuel Carey , Eppel Elizabeth , Koziol-McLain Jane
Published: May 2024

Introduction: Violence within families is a complex problem which significantly impacts health and wellbeing. Despite the ubiquitous call for integrated family violence service delivery, integrated approaches vary significantly and challenges to implementation remain. This scoping review explored how integrated approaches to family violence service delivery are conceptualised within international and Aotearoa New Zealand literature.
Methods: Following a documented scoping review process identified from literature, dynamic interplay between system agents within integrated family violence service delivery were mapped with the assistance of a complexity theory lens. We analysed characteristics of included studies, agents involved, how they interacted and the methods and mechanisms of integration among them.
Results: Seventy-two published reports were included. The most common interactions occurred between statutory agencies such as police and child protection. While health care service providers were included within 55 studies, their engagement was often peripheral. Qualitative analysis elucidated three broad pathways to service delivery impact underpinned by systems-centred, person-centred, or Indigenous-centred worldviews.
Discussion and Conclusion:: Integrated approaches to family violence service delivery are highly variable. Despite a strong assumption that integration leads to improved safety, health, and wellbeing for care-seekers, most studies did not include evidence of such impact. Consideration of how worldviews characterise service provision provides insight into why integration has proven challenging over time.
E-Waste – Introducing Gen Z Pollution
Authors: Sangwan Khushbu , Srivastava Shubham
Published: May 2024

E-waste in simple words is the waste that is generated from devices like mobile phones, computers, ACs, fridges etc. The different types of waste are the outcome of our daily or industrial activities. E-waste is generated when the devices we use in our daily lives are broken or worn out of use they are either thrown in the garbage or sold at the value of it, which ultimately results in the accumulation of unwanted electronic waste. The paper discusses the generation of mounting quantities of e-waste leading to increased threats to the environment due to multiple reasons such as industrialization, urbanization and changes in the pattern of life, which accompany the process of economic growth. In recent years, technologies have been developed that are triggering a substantial quantity of energy and waste from the devices posing a threat concerning e-waste for its safe disposal. The paper discusses in depth the methods of how western countries are responsible for the accumulation of E-waste in the South Asian region in the name of used goods. The authors explain in detail what steps can be procured to prevent such accretion, moreover emphasizing the methods inculcated by various countries to deal with such type of waste. The authors have attempted to suggest steps, with the help of which the recycling of the e-waste generated can be made sure along with the methods to control the generation of e-waste simultaneously.
Combating Signal Piracy- A Shift From The Signal Based Approach
Authors: G Vinu Sree
Published: May 2024

Broadcasting organization can be defined as an entity which shoulders the complete responsibility for broadcasting the signal. This would also include assembling and scheduling the programmes. The entities which delivers the signal exclusively by means of a computer network are also brought under the purview of the broadcasting organization.1 Several international conventions were drafted intending to confer effective protection to the broadcasting organizations against illegal use of the program- carrying signals. In spite of all these legal instruments, infringements are happening in the form of signal thefts which is disadvantageous to the broadcasting organizations. Signal piracy, if left unchecked can cause a serious concern for the proliferation of the entertainment industry. This can affect the marketability as well as the profitability of the broadcasting organizations This will eventually affect public interest, in case if the broadcasters restrict broadcasting programmes of public importance. Traditional broadcasters and in most cases the public broadcasting organizations in developing and least developed countries are the worst affected. Signal piracy, not only affects the interests of broadcasting organizations, but also it affects the rights of the copyright holders of the content which is being broadcasted. In this paper, the author intends to analyze the scope of the existing national as well as international legislations in combating signal piracy and to the extent in which they could protect the rights of the broadcasting organizations. While analyzing the legislations, the paper intends to demarcate signal based and right based approach in protecting the broadcasting organizations.
Oppression and Mismanagement the Notion of Rule of Majority
Authors: Hussain Arif , Khatoon Fatima
Published: May 2024

The Prevention of Oppression and Mismanagement1 is a fundamental clause in the Companies Act that seeks to protect the interests of minority shareholders and prohibits firm management from abusing authority. However, although being a major clause of the Companies Act2, oppression and mismanagement3 are not defined. Because the meaning of mismanagement or oppression prevention might be broad, these phrases must be construed based on the facts of each instance. However, if we try to define Mismanagement, it relates to practises that violate the Memorandum of Association, Articles of Association, or other legislative rules, resulting in mismanagement inside the organisation. This provision empowers shareholders to sue the company’s management or majority owners in court if they think their rights are being violated or the business is being mishandled. The purpose of this article is to examine the portions of the Companies Act’s Prevention of Oppression and Mismanagement Act4, which is found in Chapter XVI of the Companies Act5, and contains its purposes, scope, and implementation as found in sections 241 to 246. It discusses the many behaviours that may constitute oppression and mismanagement, as well as how minority shareholders can seek redress through the legal system. The study also highlights the role of the Company Law Board and the National Company Law Tribunal6 in resolving oppression and mismanagement issues, as well as other particular directives such as A member’s shares or interest are purchased by another member, resulting in a capital decrease. Transfer/allotment of shares is restricted. Contracts between the company and the MD, or any other director or administration, may be cancelled or set aside as the tribunal thinks necessary. Any further agreements between the firm and anyone other than those stated above shall be dissolved. Only with proper notification and the approval of the affected party may the agreement be cancelled. Putting aside any transfer/delivery/payment/execution or other act pertaining to property made by or against the corporation during a period of three months of the date of the request under this section, which would be constituted fraudulent preference if done by or against the individual.7 Overall, this paper provides a thorough examination of the Companies Act’s Prevention of Oppression and Mismanagement provision and its significance in protecting minority shareholders’ interests and encouraging effective corporate governance.

Mangrove forests occupy less than 1% of tropical forest areas, but account for approximately 3% of global tropical forest carbon sequestration and act as a natural atmospheric CO2 sequestration mechanism, which gives them an important role in climate change mitigation. However, different anthropogenic disturbances continue to negatively impact the structure and function of mangrove ecosystems; therefore, it is important to investigate the effect of specific anthropogenic alterations on the capacity of mangroves to store carbon. The present study aimed to test the hypothesis of a direct relationship between the degree of anthropogenic intervention and the reduction of mangrove carbon stocks. Eight edge forest types with different degrees of anthropogenic intervention and multiple uses were selected. Six 100 m2 plots were established in each forest to determine its structure and evaluate the concentration of sedimentary organic carbon and biomass. The anthropogenic disturbance index (ADI) was used to quantify the degree of specific disturbances in the studied forests. The results supported the proposed hypothesis, showing that the mangroves with the highest anthropogenic disturbance measured through the ADI registered the lowest values in blue carbon. However, it is evident that in addition to anthropogenic disturbances, impacts such as coastal erosion pose a very important threat to some of these forests. Estimated organic carbon losses in the study area were between 8.4% and 49.3%, corresponding to 158 and 929 Mg CO2 eq ha−1, respectively. Logging is one of the main disturbances that affects forests differently according to their structural development. Forests with higher structural development are subject to greater pressure. Carbon losses from logging are not only reflected in aboveground carbon, but are also evident in sedimentary carbon.
