Authors: Lotfi Jabar , Taghikhani Mohammad , Rabbani Ali , Khatami Shohreh , Rasaee Mohammad Javad
Published: August 2022

Background:

Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is the most common neonatal endocrine
disorder. This study aimed to investigate whether disturbances in amino acid metabolism and fatty
acid oxidation existed in neonates with CH compared to healthy neonates.

Methods:

In this case-control study, we evaluated the metabolomics of neonates with newly diagnosed
CH and healthy neonates. Forty-three metabolites, including 13 amino acids and 30 acylcarnitines,
were investigated.

Results:

Two hundred neonates with CH and 209 healthy children were enrolled. The mean age of
males and females was 4.8 ± 2.4 and 5.52 ± 3.2 days in the case group and 5.1 ± 2.6 and 4.7 ± 3.6
days in the control group, respectively. Of the metabolites, 34 were significantly different between
the two groups. Five amino acids and four acylcarnitines did not differ significantly between groups.

Conclusion:

These findings pave the way for a better understanding of the relationship between
alterations and the clinical manifestation of CH, which has the potential for identifying novel therapeutics.

Additive technology for manufacturing products and structures from reinforced concrete
Authors: Nakhaev M. R.
Published: August 2022

Objective. An analysis of already known technological methods for molding shotcrete and a construction 3D printer confirmed the effectiveness of building additive technologies. The proposed extended additive technology, the method of electrostatic molding of products and structures made of reinforced concrete, will find its practical application in construction.

Method. The principle of obtaining electrostatic concrete is the electrostatic deposition of a semi-dry mixture of binder, finely ground sand and fibers on a shaping base made of steel or carbon mesh. The resulting layers are dosed with finely sprayed water with various additives, the mixture sedimentation and moisturizing cycles are repeated until the desired thickness of reinforced concrete is obtained.

Result. Electrostatic buildup of concrete layers occurs without mechanical impact on the shaping base. This means that the basis of the product can be made from a small amount of material in a short time and in any available way. The first layers of fiber-reinforced concrete, after holding time, give strength to the shaping base. As the thickness of concrete increases, the strength of the product increases, outstripping the increase in mass.

Conclusion. The electrostatic molding method makes it possible to manufacture thin-walled body parts of complex shape, spatial shells, architectural and construction parts, and structures of membranes, hollow columns and racks, power line supports, reclamation gutters, large-diameter drainage pipes, tanks, etc.

Authors: Sidorkina Yu. A. , Aslanov T. G. , Magomedov H. D.
Published: August 2022

Objective. The purpose of the study is to determine the velocities of seismic waves on the ground.

Method. To determine the velocities of seismic waves in different parts of the earth's crust, using a sample obtained by mathematical modeling, an artificial neural network was trained. Using at the input of the trained neural network, the real values of the differences in the times of arrival of seismic waves on the ground, we obtain at its output the values of the velocities of seismic waves on the ground.

Result. A method for determining the velocities of seismic waves on the ground using artificial neural networks is proposed. Dependences of the root-mean-square error in determining the velocities of seismic waves on the ground on the training epoch, as well as the distribution of errors in determining the coordinates of the earthquake hypocenter using the obtained information about the structure of the earth, are obtained.

Conclusion. The proposed method makes it possible to determine the structure of the earth's crust more accurately than previously proposed mathematical methods.
Method for constructing a CAD training course
Authors: Hoang C.K.
Published: August 2022

Objective. In the development of the electronic industry, one of the strategic directions for the development of organizations is personnel training. The costs of training and the implementation of training courses in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic are significant. The purpose of this work is to increase the efficiency of engineers' activities in computer-aided modular design systems based on printed circuit boards (PCB) through the formation of the necessary competencies and recommendations for the designer.

Method. The article provides an overview of methods and systems for the formation of CAD content in various industries. It is proposed to create a training system updated in real time, which will improve the skills of engineers and overcome gaps in production The structure of an automated learning system (AOS) is developed. What makes this structure different from others is an ontological model domain and an adaptive model. An adaptive method has been developed for constructing a CAD training course for enterprises in the instrument manufacturing industry, which is distinguished by the use of mechanisms for the interaction of learning models. The individual characteristics of the engineer being trained to form an adaptive learning scenario are taken into account in these learning models. This allows providing the optimal learning trajectory to the student with a reduction in learning time.

Result. This research method is used to improve the skills of engineers in the course "Design of modules based on PP" at the X52 shipyard in Vietnam. As the results of the experiments, we can achieve a result that this effective method increases the level of engineering competence by 11.3% and decreases the total training time by 25.4 % compared to +the traditional method. Moreover, this method also reduces the cost of additional training for new engineers.

Conclusion. The obtained results demonstrate the need to develop an adaptive training system. Thank to this method, the competency of the software-based modular design engineers will be developed. The adequacy of this method has been previously confirmed by the experimental data and the previous studies.

Published: August 2022

Objective. In modern technology, elastic structures of structures, machines, and technical devices are widespread. In real conditions, the rods experience oscillations from dynamic and kinematic disturbances. The aim of the work is to develop methods and algorithms for solving problems of oscillations under dynamic and kinematic disturbances.

Method. The study is based on the application of the hypothesis of flat sections and the d'Alembert principle.

Result. The problem of longitudinal free and forced vibrations of rods is considered. As a result, the displacement function of transverse sections in the longitudinal direction of the rod was found, the spectra of natural forms jn and natural frequencies wn of vibrations were obtained.

Conclusion. A set of calculation programs has been created, which makes it possible to solve problems of rod vibrations. Spectra of eigenfrequencies wn and eigenmodes jn(x) of vibrations are obtained, and u(x, t) is found, the function of displacement of cross sections in the longitudinal direction of the rod.
Calculation model of thermoelectric system for cooling discrete semiconductor devices
Authors: Evdulov O. V. , Ibragimova A. M. , Magomedov T. Yu.
Published: August 2022

Objective. The aim of the study is to develop a computational model of a thermoelectric system (TPS) for cooling discrete semiconductor devices (DSD), implemented in the Elcut application software package, and to conduct a corresponding numerical experiment on it.

Method. A new type of DPP cooling system has been developed, which uses several TEM sections that provide heat removal from both the lower and upper surfaces of the fuel elements, which increases the heat exchange surface between the cold source and the REE element and increases the heat removal efficiency. Using the finite element method, a computational model of this system is constructed based on the solution of the problem of thermal conductivity for a multi-element structure of a complex configuration, each component of which is characterized by thermal and electrical parameters.

Result. A numerical experiment was carried out using the calculation model. As a result of it, the results of a numerical experiment were obtained in the form of a three-dimensional picture of the temperature field of the DPP - TPP system when it reaches the stationary mode, as well as graphs of temperature changes over time in the center of discrete semiconductor devices at various values of the cooling capacity of the thermoelectric module (TEM).

Conclusion. As a result of the numerical experiment, it was found that the proposed design of the cooling TPP fully allows solving the problem of ensuring the required temperature regime of the DPP in the range of its power up to 75 W. At the same time, the use of sections of thermoelectric modules from thermoelements identical in their geometric, electrical and thermal characteristics makes it possible to increase the manufacturability of the device, as well as to ensure its operation in optimal current modes.
Canadian Resources on Cannabis Use and Fertility, Pregnancy, and Lactation: Scoping Review
Authors: Sharif Ayni , Bombay Kira , Murphy Malia S Q , Murray Rebecca K , Sikora Lindsey , Cobey Kelly D , Corsi Daniel J
Published: August 2022

Background

Cannabis use among reproductive-aged Canadians is increasing, but our understanding of its impacts on fertility, pregnancy, and breast milk is still evolving. Despite the availability of many web-based resources, informed decision-making and patient counseling are challenging for expectant families and providers alike.

Objective

We aimed to conduct a scoping review of publicly available web-based Canadian resources to provide information on the effects of cannabis on fertility, pregnancy, and breast milk.

Methods

Following PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews), we systematically searched 8 databases between January 1, 2010, and November 30, 2020, and web pages of 71 Canadian obstetrical, government, and public health organizations. We included English resources discussing the effects of cannabis on fertility, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or the exposed fetus and infant. Epidemiological characteristics, readability, and content information were extracted and summarized.

Results

A total of 183 resources met our inclusion criteria. Resources included content for public audiences (163/183, 89.1%) and health care providers (HCPs; 31/183, 16.9%). The resources were authored by national-level (46/183, 25.1%), provincial or territorial (65/183, 35.5%), and regional (72/183, 39.3%) organizations. All provinces and territories had at least one resource attributed to them. The majority (125/183, 68.3%) were written at a >10 grade reading level, and a few (7/183, 3.8%) were available in languages other than English or French. The breadth of content on fertility (55/183, 30.1%), pregnancy (173/183, 94.5%), and breast milk or breastfeeding (133/183, 72.7%) varied across resources. Common themes included citing a need for more research into the effects of cannabis on reproductive health and recommending that patients avoid or discontinue cannabis use. Although resources for providers were consistent in recommending patient counseling, resources targeting the public were less likely to encourage seeking advice from HCPs (23/163, 14.1%).

Conclusions

Canadian resources consistently identify that there is no known safe amount of cannabis that can be consumed in the context of fertility, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. Areas of improvement include increasing readability and language accessibility and encouraging bidirectional communication between HCPs and patients.

The Adoption of a COVID-19 Contact-Tracing App: Cluster Analysis (Preprint)
Authors: Hengst Tessi M , Lechner Lilian , van der Laan Laura Nynke , Hommersom Arjen , Dohmen Daan , Hooft Lotty , Metting Esther , Ebbers Wolfgang , Bolman Catherine A W
Published: August 2022

BACKGROUND

During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was limited adoption of contact-tracing apps (CTAs). Adoption was particularly low among vulnerable people (eg, people with a low socioeconomic position or of older age), while this part of the population tends to have lesser access to information and communication technology and is more vulnerable to the COVID-19 virus.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to understand the cause of this lagged adoption of CTAs in order to facilitate adoption and find indications to make public health apps more accessible and reduce health disparities.

METHODS

Because several psychosocial variables were found to be predictive of CTA adoption, data from the Dutch CTA CoronaMelder (CM) were analyzed using cluster analysis. We examined whether subgroups could be formed based on 6 psychosocial perceptions (ie, trust in the government, beliefs about personal data, social norms, perceived personal and societal benefits, risk perceptions, and self-efficacy) of (non)users concerning CM in order to examine how these clusters differ from each other and what factors are predictive of the intention to use a CTA and the adoption of a CTA. The intention to use and the adoption of CM were examined based on longitudinal data consisting of 2 time frames in October/November 2020 (N=1900) and December 2020 (N=1594). The clusters were described by demographics, intention, and adoption accordingly. Moreover, we examined whether the clusters and the variables that were found to influence the adoption of CTAs, such as health literacy, were predictive of the intention to use and the adoption of the CM app.

RESULTS

The final 5-cluster solution based on the data of wave 1 contained significantly different clusters. In wave 1, respondents in the clusters with positive perceptions (ie, beneficial psychosocial variables for adoption of a CTA) about the CM app were older (P<.001), had a higher education level (P<.001), and had higher intention (P<.001) and adoption (P<.001) rates than those in the clusters with negative perceptions. In wave 2, the intention to use and adoption were predicted by the clusters. The intention to use CM in wave 2 was also predicted using the adoption measured in wave 1 (P<.001, β=–2.904). Adoption in wave 2 was predicted by age (P=.022, exp(B)=1.171), the intention to use in wave 1 (P<.001, exp(B)=1.770), and adoption in wave 1 (P<.001, exp(B)=0.043).

CONCLUSIONS

The 5 clusters, as well as age and previous behavior, were predictive of the intention to use and the adoption of the CM app. Through the distinguishable clusters, insight was gained into the profiles of CM (non)intenders and (non)adopters.

The Impact Mechanism of Pro-Environmental Behaviours
Authors: Siyi Liu , Zhang Qian , Wen Julie Jie , Tisdell Clem
Published: August 2022

Based on the theory of relationship quality, the research constructed the impact mechanism model of pro-environmental behaviours by applying tourist’s perceived value as the antecedent variable, while relationship quality (satisfaction and loyalty) was treated as the mediators, and place attachment as a moderator. Surveys were conducted at the Daweishan National Forest Park in Hunan Province, China, with 674 valid questionnaires collected. The empirical results provided evidence that the direct effect of perceived value of tourists on tourists’ pro-environmental behaviours is significantly positive, and the indirect effect of relationship quality (satisfaction and loyalty) between perceived value of tourists. Recommendations and strategies for further research and implementing tourist stratification management are suggested.
A Project for Life Sciences Students and Physics Students Involving a Cell Phone
Authors: Abdul-Razzaq Wathiq , Rana Bilal
Published: August 2022

An increasing number of life science students are taking physics courses in college as more physics-based medical technologies are being implemented in hospitals and clinics. Most of these students are unable to appreciate the connection between physics and their fields when taking a typical physics course. One of the best ways to bridge physics with another area of study is to involve students in a small but exciting research project such as relating the physics of microwaves to biological organisms. A cell phone was used to study the effect of its emitted microwaves on the growth of tomato plants after exposing the seeds to the signal during germination.
A Timeline of the Risk Field: Bridging Fundamental Achievements and Modern Research
Authors: Costa Lucas Lopes , Sousa Fabiano Luis de , Junior Milton de Freitas Chagas
Published: August 2022

An evolutionary, diverse, and complex path of the risk conceptualization has been built along with the history of mankind. The current understanding and the variety of methods available to deal with risk and uncertainty are linked to the achievements made by several academics and researchers in the past. However, very little of the risk analysis literature has attempt to explicitly bridge or recognize this fundamental construction for organizational and research purposes. This conceptual paper presents the results of a literature research in a timeline framework. The significant accomplishments that collaborated to the modern knowledge in the field of risk are organized in five distinct phases and their connections to modern research topics are discussed. The aim is to provide a condensed but comprehensive overview of the foundations and evolution of the risk field and link the different conceptual paths that currently exist in risk analysis research. The present paper contributes to a systemic view of the risk discipline, which we believe will be a helpful review from which academy and industry readers would benefit.
Miguel Ferrante´s Seringal: human exploitation and violence in Amazonian rubber plantations
Authors: Nenevé Miguel , Costa Giselle Silva
Published: August 2022

In this article we explore the issue of violence and oppression suffered by rubber-tappers in the Amazonian rubber plantations, visible in Miguel Ferrante´s novel Seringal. The novel is set in the Santa Rita rubber plantation in the interior of Acre, in the Brazilian Amazon, and reproduces the oppressive life of rubber tappers who work for the owner of the rubber plantation, the “colonel. “Always aiming at “profit and more profit” rubber plantation´s owner exploits and enslaves the “seringueiros”, taking violent actions against the poor workers. The novel also reveals the subhuman condition in which the women in the rubber plantation live, subject to rape and other sort of violence. Women are more deeply colonized and exploited than the rubber men. We argue that violence against women and workers today reflects violence in rubber plantations in the XX century. Scholars such as the thinker Frantz Fanon (1979) who wrote about colonization and Cristina Wolf (2001) who researches violence in the state of Acre, among others, support our argument.

This article aims to highlight the impacts of a social debt of the Sobradinho-BA dam that left 12,000 families disappropriated, around 70,000 people and 8,619,000 were from rural families (IPEA, 2018). This research is based on a bibliographic review, based on the theoretical and interdisciplinary methodology of political administration, strategic planning and territorial development that investigated the consequences in the social, economic, environmental, political and cultural dimensions of the construction of the Sobradinho-BA dam for those affected. As a result, it is perceived that there are only ruins of the 04 submerged cities, these riverside families and their descendants had their roots and ties of territoriality forbade, generating a social problem in the future generations of the population involved, requiring new scientific research of the administrative sciences of the theme.
Калмыцкий «каркасный» шлем из собрания Смоленского государственного музея-заповедника
Authors:   Novosibirsk State University (1, Pirogov St., 630090 Novosibirsk, Russian Federation), Bobrov Leonid A. , Alekseev Dmitry P. ,   Smolensk State Reserve Museum (4, Kommunisticheskaya St., 214000 Smolensk, Russian Federation)
Published: August 2022

Introduction. The article deals with an iron helmet stored at Smolensk State Reserve Museum (inv. no. OР-375) that has never been subject to any academic research. The goal. The paper aims to introduce the item into scientific circulation, describe its construction and design, clarify some dating and attribution properties. Results. The efforts to establish when and how the helmet had been obtained by the museum came to nothing but it can still be dated and attributed on the basis of a typological analysis. The headpiece clusters with a large group of riveted helmets characterized by a four-piece crown and a specific ‘frame’ consisting of narrow faceted overlays with a smooth edge and one (two) narrow hoops. Helmets of this type are equipped with a cylindrical (less often conical) pommel (top) with a plume tube. Another frequent design element of such helmets is a ‘box-shaped’ visor. Such headpieces come from Central Asia, South Siberia, and the Volga Region and are dated back to the Late Middle Ages and early modern period. The helmet from Smolensk State Reserve Museum is distinguished by multiple ornamental patterns on the crown, as well as the shape of the two-part top piece. It is very likely that the armorer to have authored this element of the helmet may have been inspired by images of Buddhist stupas inherent to the Kadampa tradition. The crown and other elements of the helmet bear a jagged ornament that creates rhombic and triangular patterns, as well as ones in the form of three-toed bird claws. Conclusions. The construction and design structures of the examined headpiece — including the Buddhist symbols on the pommel — suggest that the helmet was forged by armorers of Dzungaria or Volga Kalmykia for an Oirat Buddhist warrior between the 1610s and 1750s (most likely in the second half of this period). The available visual materials attest to that such helmets were long used in weaponry of nomads across the Great Steppe. So, in particular, one can see them on images of Bashkir warriors dated to the 1800s–1820s.
К вопросу о религиозных верованиях старых баргутов

Introduction. The paper discusses some religious beliefs — identified as original and authentic ones — based on shamanic traditions among the Old Barga (Barghuts). Despite the active presence of Buddhism and coexistence with the latter, the Old Barga shamanism remains viable enough. Goals. The study attempts to delineate elements that would indicate connections and interactions between the shamanic tradition of Old Barghuts and those of Buryats and Manchus. To facilitate this, the work pursues a number of objectives, namely: a brief review and analysis of published studies covering the topic; identification of common features inherent to Barghut, Buryat and Manchu shamanisms. Materials and methods. The main research methods employed are the historical/genetic one and that of comparative analysis (with due regard of historicism principles). Results. The available works and materials of different authors, mainly field studies, make it possible to reconstruct the structure and hierarchy of the Old Barga shamanic pantheon, highlight key religious cults that form their unified religious beliefs and preferences. At the same time, publications to have examined the Old Barga shamanism state a genetic relationship with the Buryat tradition — without any essential insights into ideas to be associated with a more archaic layer, and the strong influence of Chinese culture, despite the fact Old Barghuts had been rather placed in Manchu environments. The paper assumes the religious ideas of Old Barghuts which had begun to take shape during the medieval domination of Tengrism (with its central idea of worshiping and deification of the Eternal Blue Sky) also contain and essentially rest on Tengrian views and ideas. Conclusions. So, the Old Barga shamanism is a flexible and changeable system of religious views. However, the transformations experienced nowadays may attest to both its evolution and certain destructive processes.

Authors: Pérez-Jiménez David , Rodríguez Medina Soélix M. , Vélez Montalvo Vaneishka , Maldonado Martínez José A. , Cabán Ruiz Michelle A.
Published: August 2022

ANTECEDENTES: Muchos adultos jóvenes sufren altos niveles de estrés y están expuestos a conductas de riesgo como el uso de drogas y alcohol, y las relaciones sexuales sin protección. OBJETIVO: Conocer la relación entre el estrés, la violencia de pareja, y la satisfacción diádica en una muestra de adultos jóvenes de bajo nivel socioeconómico. MÉTODO: Llevamos a cabo un estudio descriptivo-correlacional mediante el diseño de encuesta a través del internet. Participaron 236 personas, siendo la mayoría mujeres (81.4%) entre las edades de 18-30. RESULTADOS: Encontramos una relación negativa, aunque no significativa entre el estrés y la satisfacción diádica (rτ =-.06, p > .05), una relación positiva y significativa entre el estrés y la violencia de pareja (rτ =.19, p < .001), y una relación negativa y significativa entre la violencia de pareja y la satisfacción diádica (rτ = -.21, p<.001). El análisis de mediación mostró un efecto indirecto significativo del estrés sobre la satisfacción diádica, a través de la violencia de pareja (b = -0.15, BCa CI [-0.26, -0.07]). CONCLUSIONES: Los resultados sugieren que esta población tiene altos niveles de estrés y es más propensa a incurrir en comportamientos violentos con sus parejas, lo que repercute en la disminución de la satisfacción diádica.

Published: August 2022

El objetivo del presente estudio fue de analizar la difusión de Fake News en el marco de la estrategia de comunicación de riesgo implementada durante la pandemia de COVID-19 por el gobierno en Argentina. La metodología utilizada fue el análisis cualitativo y cuantitativo de las notas publicadas a lo largo del año de 2020 en la plataforma Confiar de la Secretaría de Medios y Comunicación Pública, desarrollada por la Agencia Nacional de Noticias Télam.  Los resultados muestran una gran incidencia de contenidos sobre tratamientos no reconocidos por la ciencia, seguidos por teorías de la conspiración; ambas, características flagrantes de una Infodemia. También concluimos que, a pesar del enorme aporte, Confiar dejó algo que desear en algunos aspectos a la hora de manejar la maraña informativa del período.
La participación en las consultas, contralorías sociales y presupuestos participativos en México, 2020
Authors: Lugo Neria Bernabé
Published: August 2022

Se analizan empíricamente los factores que determinan el involucramiento ciudadano en mecanismos institucionales. Para ello, se estima un modelo logit que toma como variable dependiente la participación del ciudadano en al menos uno de estos tres mecanismos: contraloría social, presupuesto participativo y la consulta ciudadana. Las determinantes que se incorporan son: la confianza que tenga el ciudadano hacia las burocracias públicas; su participación en las elecciones y la comunitaria, su simpatía con gobiernos participativos, su grado de satisfacción con la democracia, y su opinión respecto al tipo de gobierno (autoritario o democrático) que prefiere. La principal conclusión es que la confianza hacia los empleados/servidores públicos sigue siendo un importante elemento que incentiva el involucramiento ciudadano.
El derecho a la libertad de expresión en Argentina. Estado de derecho, democracia y desacuerdos en el caso NODIO
Authors: Stropparo Pablo Ezequiel
Published: August 2022

Este artículo describe una política gubernamental implementada en Argentina frente a la desinformación y las noticias maliciosas. Se trata de NODIO, el Observatorio de la Desinformación y la Violencia Simbólica en Medios y Plataformas Digitales. El autor enmarca la libertad de expresión en el estado de derecho y la democracia, considerando que es uno de los derechos fundamentales garantizado por los mecanismos institucionales y normativos vigentes. Asimismo, muestra que los desacuerdos sobre la libertad de expresión que NODIO generó no permiten evaluar los resultados de esta política. Dado que no hay suficiente evidencia sobre lo que pretende el gobierno con este observatorio, solo se plantean cuatro hipótesis y los problemas que cada una conlleva en torno a la libertad de expresión. Concluye con una reflexión sobre la relación entre doxa y episteme en la era de la posverdad, mostrando un posible uso de la inteligencia artificial y los algoritmos que hacen los científicos sociales para conocer la opinión pública. Siguiendo la tradicional distinción entre responsabilidad y convicción de Max Weber, el autor sugiere que ambas son valores en peligro tanto para los políticos como para los científicos sociales.
Pandemia en tiempos de posverdad: Narrativas sobre desinformación acerca de COVID-19 en medios mexicanos
Authors: Galarza Molina Rocío Araceli
Published: August 2022

Esta investigación tiene como propósito establecer cuáles son las narrativas acerca de desinformación y fake news que se presentan en medios mexicanos. Se realizó un análisis temático de la cobertura del COVID-19 en la primera etapa de la pandemia en el 2020, a partir de una muestra compuesta por 3,284 notas de 5 periódicos y 3 cadenas televisivas nacionales. Del análisis se concluyó que la cobertura de los medios retrata un manejo de la información sobre la crisis de salud que hace eco de las narrativas predominantes en torno a la posverdad, por lo que el asunto de la desinformación y las fake news está sin duda presente y se manifiesta a través de tres temas: referencias al fenómeno de la desinformación, desinformación sobre COVID-19 entre la población y el gobierno como desinformante. En la conclusión se discuten las implicaciones de la falta de cohesión al cubrir los últimos dos temas, pues se manejan como problemas inconexos brindando un panorama incompleto y distorsionado del fenómeno.
Posverdad: construcción epistémica para la dominación
Authors: Chavarría Suárez Mario Cruz , Pérez Pérez Gabriel
Published: August 2022

El trabajo se presenta como una aportación teórica para la delimitación analítico-conceptual de la posverdad como instrumento de dominación propio de las sociedades contemporáneas. La estrategia metodológica consiste en un estudio cualitativo que vincula el análisis teórico con la investigación documental a partir de la crítica hermenéutica interpretativa de algunos de los principales teóricos que abordan la construcción del conocimiento, del lenguaje, de los significados y de las ideologías como mecanismos de dominación. Se describen algunas de las características más importantes de las sociedades actuales mediante dos perspectivas, una histórica y otra sociológica. Si consideramos que las creencias, las emociones y los deseos de las personas son lo que determinan la opinión pública, encontramos que para distorsionar la realidad, de manera deliberada, y manipular las actitudes sociales, se requiere de la imposición de la propia voluntad sobre un contexto social; de la obediencia de las personas, de grupos sociales o sectores de la población; y de creer en las personas facultadas para gobernar, para generar y controlar los de temas de agenda pública y su información. La posverdad se constituye así, como un mecanismo de dominación que moldea y manipula la opinión pública y las actitudes sociales.

The objective of the study is to determine the antibiotic resistance and biofilm formation of Klebsiella pneumoniae in different surfaces. In this study, 47 K. pneumoniae strains were procured from K.A.P. Viswanatham Government Medical College, Trichy, Tamil Nadu. All the isolates were reconfirmed through biochemical reactions. Maximum resistance was observed against Ampicillin, Cefepime, Cefotaxime, Co-trimoxazole, Aztreonam, and Imipenem. The lowest resistance was noticed against Cefuroxime. Among these 85% strains exhibited multidrug resistance with 13% was carbapenem and 98% ESBL resistant strains. The biofilm formation of all the strains in different surfaces revealed that stainless steel surface found to be adhered high number of cells than in other surfaces. Similarly, the biofilm formation of strains grown with glucose in tryptic soya broth (TSB) enhanced adherence ability. It is concluded that presence of glucose or any sugar substrates enhances the biofilm formation thereby developing high resistance against different antibiotics. This condition is detrimental to human health and causes considerable concern.

To Investigate the Properties of Concrete Having Partial Replacement of Fine Aggregate with Copper Slag and Coarse Aggregate with Ceramic Tile Waste
Authors: Khanji Mr. Mohammad Aslam , Lalotra Sourabh
Published: August 2022

Abstract: The process of smelting copper produces copper slag as a by-product. The disposal of such a massive volume of copper slag raises environmental concerns. So, recycled copper slag can be utilised in place of fine aggregate or cement. This has several benefits, including lowering disposal costs and increasing recycling rates. In terms of coarse aggregates, their supply is a serious challenge in the construction industry. As a result, ceramic tile waste can be used as a coarse aggregate substitute. They are tough, long-lasting, and resistant to degrading forces. Ceramic tile wastes are simply leftover tiles from construction projects. Waste generated during building and demolition activities accounts for over 70% of all waste worldwide. Furthermore, approximately 60% of the waste generated during the creation of tile is discarded. As a result, discarding such a large amount of rubbish causes environmental issues. Concrete costs are lowered when they are used. The results of an experimental inquiry into the impact of partially substituting fine aggregate with copper slag and coarse aggregate with ceramic tiles waste on the strength properties of concrete are presented in this study. Utilizing 150x300mm cylindrical specimens for split tensile strength research and 150x150x150mm cubes for compressive strength testing. As the amount of ceramic waste in the mix rose, the concrete's workability, density, compressive strength, and flexural strength all decreased. The mix M5 had a compressive strength of 44.40 N/mm2 after 28 days of curing. Ceramic waste is porous and lighter than conventional coarse aggregate, resulting in lower density and strength. This study shows that ceramic waste may be utilised for both structural and non-structural purposes.

The Syari'iyah Court is an Islamic Sharia Judicial Institution in Aceh as a Development of the Religious Courts which was inaugurated on 1 Muharram 1424 H/4 March 2003 AD based on Presidential Decree No. 11 of 2003. In accordance with Article 1 paragraph (1) of Presidential Decree No. 11 of 2003 the Religious Court in Aceh Province was changed to a Syar'iyah Court. The Syar'iyah Court has special powers that are different from the Religious Courts outside the province of Aceh. The Syar'iyah Court through Qanun number 6 of 2014 concerning Jinayat Law has the authority to hear cases in the Jinayat field in Aceh. As a consequence of the absolute authority of the Syar'iyah Court in the field of Jinayat, the Syar'iyah Court also handles cases related to Pretrial. Rules regarding Pretrial are regulated in Qanun number 7 of 2013 concerning the Jinayat Procedural Law. The Syar'iyah Court which often handles civil cases is a new thing when faced with pretrial cases. The purpose of this paper is to find out the legality and description of the pretrial examination at the Syar'iyah Court, so as to gain a comprehensive understanding of the process of examining the pretrial case.Abstrak.

Though Rice is cultivated in huge quantities, various disease causing agents will reduce the yield leading to not only losing the economy but also a food crisis. Production of rice is constrained by fungal, bacterial and viral diseases. In the current review, we focused on various pathological symptoms in Oryza species that cause high yield losses. In this context, plant breeders are attempting progressive research activity to achieve more yield and disease-resistant varieties that balance the world’s rice demand and increase the farmers' income. Rice was recognized as a genetic model for research in genetics and molecular biology, for understanding growth, development, tolerance to stress and disease resistance because of its small genome. The present review focuses on the various causative agents of diminishing rice yield along with the strategies to eradicate the pathogen and thereby increasing the yield. Recent research advances at genetic level have paved a way for novel approach to understand the significance between the pheno-genotypic variations with the crop yield of rice. Further, the review also includes the advanced methodologies at molecular level so as to save the rice cultivators from economic crisis. Disease resistant genes are identified and screened using molecular markers like SSR (simple sequence repeats), RAPD (Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA), and RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphisms) analysis. There exist few reports in the literature about rice cultivation, but to the best of our knowledge in a single review both cause and remedy were not discussed in detail. In this context, our review provides an insight into the aspects attributing the crop loss followed by suggesting the suitable alternative method for enhancing crop yield.
