SWEDANA THERAPY A HOPE FOR MEDOPRADOSHAJA VIKARA W.S.R. CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE (CKD) PATIENTS
Authors: Mishra Dipti , Abhiranjan Abhiranjan , Kumar Sujeet
Published: May 2024

Swedana (sudation) therapy is a process which has a dual role in panchkarma as well as pradhan karma in relevance to
panchkarma and the treatment of various vata-kaphaja and medopradoshaja vikara. Swedana helps to relief stiffness
heaviness and coldness of the body and makes the body to perspire. It removes toxins from the body through hair follicles present all over the skin
.The perspiration brought about by the swedana is more than the normal. Swedana is preventive, supportive as well as therapeutic. Acharya
charak has mentioned the root of origin of swedavaha srotas (channels) lies in Meda (fat, lipids, Adipose tissue) and lomakoop (minute pores of
the skin located around base of hair follicles). Sweda is considered to be excreta (Mala) of meda dhatu. The root of origin of medovaha srotas
(channels) are Vrikka (kidney) and vapvahana(peritoneal membrane). The Vrikka (kidney) is originated from prasada bhag of Rakta (Blood) and
meda. In Chronic kidney disease (CKD), the hemodynamics of the kidney is hampered which leads to accumulation of toxins and unltered
excretory wastes. So with the help of swedana the hemodynamics of kidney and the body is improved which facilitates the expulsion of
accumulated toxins through activation of sweat glands to produce more sweat. It causes apana vata anulomana which further facilitates
micturition. In this article you will come to know the relevance of swedana in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients.
Assessing Small-Signal Grid Strength of 100% Inverter-Based Power Systems
Authors: Ma Fuyilong , Xin Huanhai , Liu Yun , Wu Di , Chen Xia
Published: May 2024

The increasing integration of renewable resources via power electronic
inverters is shifting a modern power system toward a 100%
inverter-based power system (IBPS). To maintain the stable operation of
a 100% IBPS, it is important to identify the small-signal stability
issues resulting from the interaction between the power network and
inverter-based apparatuses. While grid strength assessment is a useful
tool for quickly identifying the stability issues, the existing methods
are not applicable to the 100% IBPS dominated by grid-following (GFL)
and grid-forming (GFM) inverters. To fill this gap, the paper proposes a
method for fast assessing grid strength in terms of small-signal
stability in the 100% IBPS. First, we formulate a multi-inverter system
modeling for the small-signal stability analysis of the 100% IBPS.
Then, based on the analysis results, an index is proposed for
quantifying grid strength, and its threshold is also defined to
characterize the system stability boundary. Also, an analytical
expression is derived to determine the threshold and analyze the impacts
of GFL and GFM inverters on the stability boundary. With the defined
index and its threshold, our method is proposed and then validated on a
modified IEEE 39-bus system.

Published: May 2024

CHSE (Cleanliness, Health, Safety, and Environment) certification is implemented by the Indonesian government to restore tourism conditions post-pandemic. The research aim is to analyze tourists' visiting decisions to visit COVID-19 adaptive tourist attractions after the implementation of the CHSE certification policy as a strategy to restore tourism conditions post-pandemic. There were no studies that investigated the effect of CHSE implementation on West Sumatra tourist attractions such as Taman Margasatwa dan Budaya Kinantan (TMBK) and Taman Panorama Lobang Jepang (TPLJ). The descriptive research was carried out with a causal-associative quantitative approach using 100 respondents.  The result revealed that: (1) The implementation of CHSE in COVID-19 is in the quite good category with a percentage of 50%. (2) Visiting decisions are in the quite good category with a percentage of 37.8%. (3) CHSE as a strategy to restore tourism conditions has an impact of 13.4% on visiting decisions. So, it is concluded that tourists decide to visit a COVID-19 adaptive tourist attraction, not solely because the tourist attraction has been CHSE certified. But 86.8% are influenced by other factors.

Published: May 2024

The mental health of nursing students is increasingly recognized as a critical issue, particularly given the high demands of their educational and clinical training. This study evaluates the prevalence and severity of stress among 94 nursing students, revealing a significant incidence of stress with potentially serious implications for health. According to the World Health Organization, optimal mental health enables individuals to manage life’s normal stresses and contribute positively to their communities. However, when stress becomes pathological, it can severely impact life balance and health, leading to conditions such as anxiety and depression. Our findings show that 38.3% of nursing students experience stress, with 61.7% exhibiting symptoms of stress and 35.1% facing mild pathological stress. Notably, severe pathological stress necessitating medical intervention was observed in 3.2% of the cohort. The average stress score was 21.2 ± 4.4, indicating a substantial risk of stress progression from normal to mild pathological levels. Demographic analysis revealed no significant differences in stress prevalence based on gender, age, or ethnicity. Living arrangements and economic status did not significantly influence stress rates. These findings underscore the urgent need for targeted interventions to mitigate stress and its detrimental effects on nursing students, potentially enhancing their educational outcomes and long-term mental health.
EFFECTIVENESS OF TREATMENT OF SPONTANEOUS MIXED COURSE OF ISOSPOROSIS AND CRYPTOSPORIDIOSIS IN PIGLETS
Authors: Bohach О. М. , Bogach M. V.
Published: May 2024

Intestinal coccidiosis, in particular isosporosis and cryptosporidiosis, lead to significant economic losses in the global pig industry. Piglets become infected immediately after birth through ingestion of sporulating oocysts from previously infected litter, as sows are considered a secondary source of infection for them. Proper housing and hygiene, which reduce the accumulation of oocysts in the environment and exposure of piglets to sporulation oocysts, are key to disease prevention.
The goal of the work. To determine the effectiveness of eimeriostatics for the mixed course of isosporosis and cryptosporidiosis in piglets.
The effectiveness of the drugs was determined on 14-day-old piglets of the breed ''Velika Bila''. The piglets of the first experimental group were given the drug Turil 5%, the second experimental group - Brovitacoccid, the third experimental group - Amprolev-plus." The dynamics of the infestation of piglets with isospores and cryptosporidia after the use of the drugs and their effectiveness were determined on the 7th, 14th and 28th days by counting the number of oocysts in 10 fields of view of the microscope according to the method of N.P. Orlova (1956).
After treatment of piglets with the drug Turil 5% on the 14th day, the release of I. suis decreased to 3.9 ± 0.1 oocysts, and on the 28th day they were not recorded, while on the 28st day C. suis was at the level 7.4±0.2 oocysts in 10 fields of view of the microscope.
When using Brovitacoccide on the 14th and 28th days, I. suis was not recorded, and the infestation of piglets by C. suis was 3.5±0.2 oocysts.
The best indicators regarding the reduction of oocyst excretion were obtained in the group of piglets treated with the drug Amprolev-plus. On the 14th day, only the release of I. suis oocysts was recorded (5.1±0.1 oocysts in 10 fields of view of the microscope), and on the 28th day, the release of C. suis and I. suis oocysts was not recorded.
On the 14th day, the effectiveness of Brovitacoccsid against I. suis and Amprolev-plus against C. suis was 100%, and already on the 28th day, 100% effectiveness of Amprolev-plus also showed against I. suis.

Authors: Stetsko T. I. , Perig Zh. M. , Padovsky V. N. , Balyan O. Z.
Published: May 2024

The article presents the results of the study of the effectiveness of the feed additive EIMERIX® (powder for oral use, granulated), produced by JSC Biopharm (Ukraine), the active pharmaceutical ingredient of which is the polyester ionophore antibiotic monensin, when used for broiler chickens naturally infected with coccidia of the genus Eimeria.
The study was conducted on 17-day-old broiler chickens with clinical signs of coccidiosis. E. tenella and E. maxima were identified from faeces samples of sick broiler chickens. For three weeks (21 days), the sick bird the feed supplement EIMERIX® was added in feed at a dose of 0.5 g per 1 kg of feed, or 100 mg of sodium monensin per 1 kg of feed (experimental group). The control group consisted of broiler chickens suffering from coccidiosis, which were not given the supplement or any other anticoccidial drugs.
The main criteria for demonstrating the estimation of the feed additive EIMERIX® were: the number of Eimeria oocysts in feces; mortality and morbidity of poultry associated with coccidiosis. Additional indicators of the effectiveness of the feed additive were: average live weight; average daily increase in live weight of poultry; average daily feed consumption, the ratio of the amount of feed consumed to growth; data of bird health monitoring during the experiment.
On the 21st day of the experiment, the excretion of Eimeria oocysts in the feces of broiler chickens with coccidiosis practically stopped (<100 oocysts/g of feces), what was confirmed by the absence of clinical signs of coccidiosis in the birds. Addition of EIMERIX® additive in feed contributed for the reduction of morbidity and mortality among sick birds. More live weight gains and lower feed conversion ratios were observed in Eimeria disease birds treated with a feed additive versus untreated birds.
The results of the study showed that the use of EIMERIX® feed additive for broiler chickens with coccidiosis, in the recommended by the manufacturer dosage, causes a decrease of the eimeria infection degree of the bird, reduces its morbidity and mortality, and also contributes to an increase of average daily gains and improvement of feed conversion.
DETERMINATION OF PRODUCTIVITY OF COWS IN KETOSIS USING PROBIOTICS
Authors: Shkromada O. I. , Vlasenko Y. K.
Published: May 2024

High-yielding cows are prone to negative energy balance due to high lactation and insufficient dry matter intake after calving. This leads to the mobilization of fat and protein in the body to meet the nutrient needs of the lactating cow. High levels of nonesterified fatty acids are maintained by fat and protein mobilization, leading to ketosis due to incomplete oxidation of ketone bodies. The purpose of the research was to investigate the effect of probiotics on the productivity of cows and the quality of milk in ketosis. Research was conducted in the period from October to November 2021 on Holstein cows in the limited liability company "Lan" Agricultural Company of the North-Eastern region of Ukraine. It was found that in cows in the post-calving group, seven days after calving, the level of ketone bodies in the blood of the cows ranged from 1.0 to 2.1 mmol/l, which is higher than in the control by 71.42–185.71%. Two weeks after probiotic administration, ketone levels were between 0.5 and 1.2 mmol/L, 16.65–100% higher than controls. On the 28th day of the study, the content of ketone bodies in cows was within the physiological norm. In cows suffering from ketosis, productivity was reduced on the seventh day of research by 22.42–336.4%, on the 14th day by 11.6–29.35%. During the study of productivity, its restoration to the indicators of healthy animals on the 28th day after calving was established at the level of 28-29 kg/day. At the same time, the content of microorganisms and somatic cells had a direct correlation with productivity, and on the 28th day, the milk of all experimental cows was suitable for consumption and corresponded to the "extra" variety.
In the first week after calving, the ratio of milk fat and protein in the milk of cows with ketosis was slightly imbalanced, which is a sign of ketosis. On the seventh day of the study, the milk fat level exceeded the protein content in cow 6905 by 32%, in cow 6852 by 39.25%, in cow 6916 by 30.34%, in cow 7642 by 41.17%, in cow 6187 – by 33.62%, in cow 2563 – by 36.40%, in cow 3891 – by 41.63%. At the end of the study on the 28th day, the fat/protein ratio approached the reference level of 1:1 in all experimental animals.

Published: May 2024

The manuscript presents the results of the development and validation of UPLC-MS/MS method for the determination of piperazine residues in muscle and parenchymal tissues of pigs. Piperazine and its derivatives are well-known anthelmintic drugs used in human and veterinary medicine. Piperazine is a heterocyclic compound without any chromophore groups with a low molecular weight (86.1 g/mol), which makes its detection in biological samples by LC-MS/MS difficult. We have developed the confirmatory technique for the direct UPLC-MS/MS assay of piperazine residues (without prior derivatization) in animal tissues after sample purification using solid-phase extraction. The proposed sample preparation includes homogenization, liquid-liquid extraction using acetonitrile, concentration and purification of samples from matrix components using SPE cartridges Oasis HLB (Waters) and with additional concentration of the eluate by drying. The analysis of the prepared samples was carried out by the method of ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection using the precursor ion of 87.0 m/z and product ions of 43.9 and 70.0 m/z (ES+ ionization, multiple reactions monitoring mode).
In order to experimentally confirm the fitting-for-purpose of the developed confirmatory method for clinical studies of veterinary drugs based on API piperazine and to assess the safety of food products of animal origin for piperazine residues, the validation of the developed UPLC-MS/MS method for the determination of piperazine in muscle tissues and liver of pigs was carried out using approaches described in EMEA/CVMP/VICH/463202/2009 and in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/808. In the process of UPLC-MS/MS technique validation, various key operating parameters were established for both investigated matrices: limit of detection, limit of quantification, linearity, specificity, accuracy, trueness. In particular, it was established that the developed method provides determination of piperazine residues in muscle tissues and liver of pigs with a sensitivity of 50 and 400 μg/kg, respectively.The developed and validated confirmatory UPLC-MS/MS method for the determination of residual amounts of piperazine is highly sensitive, highly selective and rapid, appropriate for the control and monitoring of the safety of animal meat and liver samples, as well as to provide analytical support for clinical studies of veterinary drugs based on API piperazine and its derivatives.

Authors: Gostev S.D. , Gots I.Yu.
Published: May 2024

The article discusses the issues of determining the quality of the protective oxide film on the surface of stainless heat-resistant steel 20Cr23Ni18, used as a material for the manufacture of glass-forming equipment, by calculating the heat resistance of heat-treated samples, and the Pilling—Bedwords criterion, which determines the continuity of the resulting oxide film. The dependences of these criteria on the temperature-time regimes of heat treatment of samples, as well as on preliminary mechanical treatment—surface grinding—are shown. Samples and heat treatment modes were determined that provide the optimal combination of high continuity of the oxide film and heat resistance of the sample.

Published: May 2024

Therapy of malignant tumors still represents a huge problem for healthcare, since these diseases lead to a high rate of disability and premature death of the population. The main problems of adoptive cell therapy for malignant tumors are a low rate of migration of effector lymphocytes into tumors, as well as their low activity in tumors due to suppressive tumor microenvironment. In addition, it should be noted that systemic intravenous administration of a large number of activated lymphocytes may be accompanied by a pronounced cytokine release syndrome, which leads to significant negative side effects, including high temperature, blood clotting disorders, aggression of immune cells against their own tissues, even neurotoxicity. Functional nanomaterials, such as magnetic nanoparticles with various surface modifications (PEG, PEI, DMSA, citrate, etc.) are highly promising agents for targeted delivery of different anti-tumor substances. Magnet-driven enrichment of effector anti-tumor lymphocytes in tumors would highly increase the effectiveness and enhance safety of adoptive lymphocyte therapy. However, different research groups obtained opposing data about the feasibility and efficiency of such approach. Thus, this review is focused on experimental details of the contradicting studies and aims to elucidate the possible reasons of these controversies and the best practices to efficiently target lymphocytes into tumors.
Fighting corruption: A theoretical articulation of the themes of social responsibility, corporate governance, and agency theory
Authors: Machado Mônica Cristina Rovaris , Santos Ruan Carlos dos
Published: May 2024

Objective: Corruption, seen as the abuse or misuse of power or trust for one's benefit instead of the purpose for which that power or trust was granted, has caused problems for many countries and the principles of Social Responsibility through the models of Carroll and Schwartz and Corporate Governance (have been pointed out in the literature as a mitigating agent of this problem. On the other hand, other research indicates the need to be cautious when guided by the mentality of the Agency Theory, which defends it as a neutral and sufficient instrument to mitigate corruption problems.
Method: This study consists of a theoretical essay based on a bibliographical survey that exposes the themes of Corruption, Social Responsibility, Corporate Governance, and Agency Theory. It surveys the different definitions, lines of research, lines of thought, supporting theories, dualities, and conflicts around the mainstream.
Results: The study's justification is centered on the perception that while studies have empirically tested the relationship between corruption and countries' accounting environments, only some have dedicated themselves to critically reflecting on the knowledge produced about this relationship.
Originality/Relevance: In the context presented, a good governance structure is recommended for effective administration and management in anti-corruption bodies. The principles of Corporate Governance and Social Responsibility, which are Transparency (disclosure), Accountability, and Fairness, align with the principles of Agency Theory, which are mainly related to ethics and morality in interpersonal relationships in organizations.
Theoretical/methodological contributions: This contribution is intended to reflect on the need for organizations to contribute to the fight against corruption in their relations and to the realization of a socially responsible administration through Corporate Governance and Agency Theory, with consonance between the objectives of shareholders and agents in an intermittent fight against corruption.
Autistic traits specific to communication ability are associated with performance on a Mooney face detection task
Authors: English Michael C. W. , Maybery Murray T. , Visser Troy A. W.
Published: May 2024

Difficulties in global face processing have been associated with autism. However, autism is heterogenous, and it is not known which dimensions of autistic traits are implicated in face-processing difficulties. To address this gap in knowledge, we conducted two experiments to examine how identification of Mooney face stimuli (stylized, black-and-white images of faces without details) related to the six subscales of the Comprehensive Autistic Trait Inventory in young adults. In Experiment 1, regression analyses indicated that participants with poorer communication skills had lower task sensitivity when discriminating between face-present and face-absent images, whilst other autistic traits had no unique predictive value. Experiment 2 replicated these findings and additionally showed that autistic traits were linked to a reduced face inversion effect. Taken together, these results indicate autistic traits, especially communication difficulties, are associated with reduced configural processing of face stimuli. It follows that both reduced sensitivity for identifying upright faces amongst similar-looking distractors and reduced susceptibility to face inversion effects may be linked to relatively decreased reliance on configural processing of faces in autism. This study also reinforces the need to consider the different facets of autism independently.

Fashion in this world is very influential in its development of war, culture, politics, economic, social movements and many other supporters who take part in changing the existing fashion. Indi's Collection is a convection company which is the case study in this research. In determining the calculation of the cost of production, the Indi's Collection Convection still uses a very simple method and has not yet detailed all costs incurred in the production process. This study aims to find out the production cost calculations that have been carried out by the company in determining net profit on the Indi's Collection convection. selling price calculations that have been carried out by the company in determining Net Profit at Indi's Collection convection, calculating Production Costs using the Full Costing method, calculating Selling Prices using the Cost Pricing method – Plus, equal to find out whether there are differences in the calculation of Production Costs and Selling Prices based on company calculations using the full costing method and the cost-plus method in determining net profit on the Indi's Collection convection. The results of this study explain that the calculation of production costs carried out by Indi's Collection is still relatively simple without theoretical methods such as the cost accounting theory used in companies that produce a product. The selling price used is the market price of products of the same quality or can be calculated using the mark up method. The full costing method affects the cost of production produced in much more detail and is cheaper than the calculation obtained from the results of interviews with business owners. The use of Cost plus pricing in Indi's Collection can increase turnover and competitive prices by producing a much larger turnover at the previous selling price. At the selling price used, Indi's Collection is more relevant because the price used is the market price of similar products used in other convections. In the comparison of net income, Indi's Collection is considered to be inadequate in describing the cost of production and expenses contained in the income statement, so that the allocation of the translation in the financial statements is considered inappropriate.

Technological developments in Indonesia have encouraged the growth of the technology sector, however the tech winter phenomenon in 2022 caused a decline in investor interest, resulting in funding difficulties and potential financial distress for technology companies. This can be seen from the significant decline in the ROA profitability ratio. The decline in ROA indicates that technology companies are increasingly inefficient in managing assets to generate net profits. This condition has certainly received attention and the author wants to evaluate it in depth to prevent more severe negative impacts in the future. The aim of this research is to examine the influence of Earning Per Share (EPS), Price Book Value (PBV), Total Asset Turnover (TATO), and Fixed Asset Turnover (FATO) on predicting financial distress using the Altman Z-Score model in sector companies technology listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2021Q1 to 2023Q2. This research uses 13 samples of technology sector companies listed on the IDX with a study period of 3 years. The company's financial data was analyzed using panel data regression analysis techniques to determine the influence of the independent variables on the dependent variable. The results of this study show that TATO is partially significant and has a positive effect on financial distress. EPS, PBV, FATO are partially not significant  effect on financial distress. For EPS, PBV, TATO, FATO simultaneously have a significant effect on financial distress in technology sector companies. The findings of this research are expected to provide valuable insights for investors, creditors and other stakeholders in assessing the financial risks of technology companies and help them  reduce the risk of losses

This research aims to determine whether there is a connection between M-Banking usage, lifestyle factors, and financial literacy. With a positive data collection strategy and a sample size of 150 participants, this research applies an associative methodology. Participants must be Singkawang City residents, aged 17–50, and M-Banking app users in order to be considered for the study. Statistical methods are employed in the analysis, including the following: multiple linear regression, correlation and determination coefficient, simultaneous testing (F test), and partial testing (t test). The data is linear, has a normal distribution, and does not show signs of multicollinearity; these findings are confirmed by the standard assumption test. The variables are strongly associated with one another, as shown by the correlation value of 0.523. According to the coefficient of determination (R2), the variables that were included in this research accounted for 28% of the variance in financial behavior, while other unexplained factors influenced the remaining 72%. Preliminary research shows that financial literacy and M-Banking use significantly affect financial behavior for the better. In contrast, lifestyle has a positive effect but is not statistically significant in influencing financial behavior.

The significance of the research roadmap's position within the study program stems from the fact that it serves as a guide, control, and assurance of the research quality for lecturers and students. Obtaining a research roadmap development design for the sharia insurance study program is the objective of this investigation. This research employs a qualitative approach. Qualitative analysis was employed to examine the data utilizing the 4D model in conjunction with the R&D (Research and Development) method. The research findings indicate that the formulation of the Research Roadmap Design for the Sharia Insurance Study Program was influenced by the following factors: the Scientific Vision of the program, the Field of Expertise of the Lecturers, ARKAN, industry needs and graduate profiles, and research topics conducted by both students and faculty. The research conducted by lecturers at Homebase remains below 50% compliant with the research roadmap outlined for the sharia insurance study program. The research road map indicates that fifty percent of students have completed sharia insurance study programs; however, a substantial amount of research remains that centers on the identical subject matter. Consequently, further deliberation is required to select and disseminate the remaining themes outlined in the research roadmap for sharia insurance study programs

Introduction. Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) offers an alternative renal replacement therapy for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), combining the benefits of mobility and a home-based treatment regime. Since its introduction at Najaf Center's Al-Sader Nephrology Center in 2011, techniques have evolved from open laparotomy to laparoscopic methods, starting officially in 2018. This study aims to evaluate patient outcomes, trends in CAPD techniques, and factors contributing to mortality. Methods. This retrospective study collected data from 643 patients who initiated CAPD between 2014 and 2022 at Najaf Governate's three centers. The study focused on demographic data, technique survival, transitions to other dialysis modalities, patient outcomes, mortality, and trends and complications associated with various CAPD catheter insertion techniques (open laparotomy, percutaneous insertion, and laparo­scopic). Out of these, 211 patients died, and 432 continued with CAPD or switched to other modalities. Twenty patients received a kidney transplant, 189 transitioned to hemodialysis and 130 remained on CAPD. Result. Technique-wise, laparoscopic insertions showed higher patency rates and fewer early complications, while percutaneous insertions had higher instances of needing revisions, and open methods were most associated with infection complications. The technique success rate was highest for laparoscopic CAPD (79.5%), followed by percutaneous CAPD (45.6%) and open laparotomy (46.5%). Conclusion. CAPD is a vital renal replacement therapy, yet it carries risks, including mortality. This study's insights into the causes of death, technique efficiency, and patient outcomes are crucial for enhancing patient care and clinical practices in CAPD. The shift from open laparotomy to laparoscopic techniques at Najaf Centers mirrors a broader trend in medical practice favoring minimally invasive procedures, which have shown better outcomes in this study.
