Authors: Chand Sahu Dimak , Kumar Gautam Girendra , Prasad Panda Durga , Rasool Mohd. Akhtar
Published: August 2022

The percentage of patients with diseases such as cancer, apoplexy, osteoporosis, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes mellitus has been growing exponentially in recent decades. A way of living related illness, type 2 diabetes, is recognised as a serious illness. It is a group of metabolic disorders marked by hyperglycemia due to insulin secretion abnormalities, insulin action faults, or both. There have been different types of diabetes pharmaceuticals used. We have been designing anti-diabetic metal complexes as new candidates, since the relationship between diabetes and biometals such as vanadium, copper, and zinc ions has been recognised for many years. Many zinc(II)(Zn) complexes have been found to have glucose-lowering activity in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In type 2 diabetic patients, high concentrations of salicylate have been recognised to reverse hyperglycemia. These results strongly suggest that synergism in the treatment of type 2 diabetes is achieved by the cumulative use of Zn and salicylate. Since aspirin, acetyl salicylic acid, has the capacity to chelate, we used this as a Zn ligand. The present study aim to prepare and evaluate the effect of Zn-Aspirin Coordination Metal Complex on Hyperglycaemic activity by Fructose induced diabetes on Wistar rat model for this Several complexes of Zn-salicylate were prepared and their Hyperglycemic activity was determined by performing different screening test and by statistical analysis.

Published: August 2022

The article presents a historical overview of the ground penetrating research (GPR) development. Although the theoretical foundations of the GPR method was formulated many years ago, it has been possible to practically implement this method only in recent years. Nowadays there are difficulties with GPR data analysis because the change in dielectric permittivity depends on a lot of factors. The aim of this study was to develop an effective GPR data processing sequence and interpretation of GPR profiles obtained on the basis of geophysical surveys in urbanized areas. The survey was conducted on the right bank of the Dnieper River in Mogilev (the Republic of Belarus), where previously residential quarters were located (according to architectural data). The developed GPR data processing sequence is based on a combination of the following methods: amplification of individual signals, the method of subtracting the average, a bandpass filter. The proposed data processing sequence is based on dielectric permeability. Information about the shape and depth of the objects buried in the cultural layer was obtained by using the proposed sequence.
MODELING OF THE BEHAVIOR OF REINFORCED CONCRETE ELEMENTS, STRENGTHENED IN THE TENSIONED ZONE, UNDER THE ACTION OF A LONG-TERM LOAD
Authors: LAZOUSKI D. , GLUHAU D. , LAZOUSKI Y.
Published: August 2022

This article provides suggestions for improving the method for analysis of the parameters of the stress-strain state of bent reinforced concrete elements, strengthened in the tension zone, taking into account the effects of concrete creep under a long-term load. The general non-linear deformation model for structural analysis of reinforced concrete elements under the combined action of bending moments and longitudinal forces is taken as a basis, using a mathematical description of the deformation diagrams of concrete and reinforcement. The proposed model makes it possible to take into account the effects of changes in deformations in concrete under the action of a long-term load. Experimental verification showed a satisfactory convergence of the results of the analysis by the proposed method with the experimental data.

Published: August 2022

In Cameroon, rivers are subjected to physicochemical disturbances, which increase the degradation of water quality. The aim of this study was to determine the spatio-temporal diversity of the phytoplankton groups and to evaluate the environmental parameters of the sampling sites in order to assess the quality of water in two hydrographic networks. Physicochemicals analyzes were carried out according to the standard methods while phytoplankton organisms were harvested by direct sampling and analyzed by the Utermöhl method. The analysis of Ammonia Nitrogen, Dissolved Oxygen, Electric Conductivity, Nitrates, Orthophosphates, pH, Temperature, and Turbidity.of water revealed the poor state of health of the water. Data from the Long Dry Season differed significantly (p < 0.05) from those recorded in other seasons. The phytoplankton communities were made up of Chlorophyta, Chrysophyta, Cyanophyta, and Euglenophyta with 11 classes dominated by Bacilliarophyceae (12 210 Ind/mL) and Cyanophyceae (6 208 Ind/mL). Phytoplankton densities were higher the Long Rainy Season and much lower in the Small Dry Season than in the Long Dry Season. Station near NODISCAM indicated significant organic pollution under the effect of agro-industrial discharges operating upstream of this company. For this station, the different values showed significant differences (p < 0.05) from one station to another. Finally, spatio-seasonal variations of phytoplankton densities showed logical responses to changes of physicochemical conditions in the environment. This work highlights the need to treat wastewater from collection channels before its dump into the natural environment, to prevent progressive eutrophication of the receiving aquatic environment, and poisoning by water consumption.

Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) are a global problem for environmental and human health. They are defined as “an exogenous chemical, or mixture of chemicals, that can interfere with any aspect of hormone action”. It is estimated that there are about 1000 chemicals with endocrine-acting properties. EDCs comprise pesticides, fungicides, industrial chemicals, plasticizers, nonylphenols, metals, pharmaceutical agents and phytoestrogens. Persistent Organochlorine Pollutants (POPs) are substances that persist a long time in the environment and pose a threat for human health. Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) are a group of POPs that were widely used and banned in 1980s. PCBs may have neurotoxic, carcinogenic, immunotoxic, hepatatoxic, nephrotoxic and cytotoxic effects. Some PCBs resemble to estradiol 17-β and hence can mimic estrogenic effects. In contrast, coplanar PCBs mimic dioxin that they bind to aryl hydrocarbon receptor and causes anti-estrogenic effects. Heavy metals (mercury, lead, arsenic, cadmium and uranium) have been reported to have endocrine disruptive effects. However, their carcinogenic, neurotoxic and other adverse effects on human health are more important. Parabens are methyl, ethyl, propyl and ester forms of PHBA that are commonly used in food, pharmaceutical and personal care products. They have weak endocrine disruptive effects. Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) are food additives as antioxidants. There are very few studies on the endocrine disruptor effects of BHA and BHT. Their use has been limited in USA, EU and Canada. Human exposure to EDCs mainly occurs by ingestion and to some extent by inhalation and dermal uptake. Most EDCs are lipophilic and bioaccumulate in the adipose tissue, thus they have a very long half-life in the body. It is difficult to assess the full impact of human exposure to EDCs because adverse effects develop latently and manifest at later ages, and in some people do not present. Timing of exposure is of importance. Developing fetus and neonates are the most vulnerable to endocrine disruption. EDCs may interfere with synthesis, action and metabolism of sex steroid hormones that in turn cause developmental and fertility problems, infertility and hormone-sensitive cancers in women and men. Some EDCs exert obesogenic effects that result in disturbance in energy homeostasis. Interference with hypothalamo-pituitary-thyroid and adrenal axes has also been reported. Potential EDCs, their effects and mechanisms of action, epidemiological studies to analyze their effects on human health, bio-detection and chemical identification methods, studying EDCs in humans and recommendations for endocrinologists, individuals and policy makers are reviewed.
Levels of Heavy Metals in the Soil of Illegal Open Dumpsites in Malaysia
Authors: Tang Kuok Ho Daniel , Goh Zhu Hang
Published: August 2022

This study aims to understand the soil impacts of illegal dumpsites in Malaysia through quantifying the heavy metals in the soil of two dumpsites, one receiving construction waste and the other receiving municipal solid waste. Five soil samples were collected from each dumpsite, and sampling was repeated in the second week to examine the temporal changes in the levels of heavy metals. All sampling was conducted in triplicates. The soil samples were sieved, dried, and digested with aqua regia at 70 °C, after which the digested mixtures were filtered. The filtrates were diluted and tested with an atomic absorption spectrophotometer for heavy metals. The soil heavy metal concentration ranges were as follows: Al (24.67-142.20 mg/kg), Cd (< 0.01-0.083 mg/kg), Cu (0.10-14.99 mg/kg), Fe (11.20-241.77 mg/kg), Mn (0.09-22.60 mg/kg), Ni (0.02- 0.77 mg/kg), and Zn (0.14-35.03 mg/kg). All the heavy metals have been detected at all the sampling points except that the Cd levels at some sampling points were below the detection limit. The levels of heavy metals varied spatially and temporally, though higher Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, and Zn were detected consistently at two sampling points of the dumpsite receiving municipal waste. This could be linked to the electrical and electronic waste at the dumpsite. The levels of heavy metals in the soil did not constitute soil contamination. However, it is important to control illegal dumping activities to reduce the associated health and safety concerns, such as infestation of vermin, fire, physical hazards, and odor.

Published: August 2022

Infrared thermography has become increasingly promising in veterinary medicine, for being a non-invasive method for detecting body thermal variation. The objective of this review was to elucidate some applications of infrared thermography and its importance on animal livestock. This tool can substitute conventional techniques for diagnosing diseases, inflammation and fever. The body temperature is an important indicator to diagnostics and to understanding physiological aspects due to the close relation between abnormal temperatures and inflammatory processes. Also, it can help monitor reproductive performance and identify more efficient animals, among other purposes. The measurement of infrared temperature allows identifying sick animals, before the appearance of clinical symptoms, making treatment and isolation faster and more accurate, enhancing the profitability and sustainability of the system. However, this tool has some limitations, such as the animal species and environmental factors. Thus, further studies are needed for the application of the thermographic on animal livestock.

Background: A previous study reported that hyperlipidemia increases the incidence of tears in the rotator cuff tendon and affects healing after repair. The aim of our study was to compare the gene and protein expression of torn rotator cuff tendons in patients both with and without hypercholesterolemia.Methods: Thirty patients who provided rotator cuff tendon samples were classified into either a non-hypercholesterolemia group (n=19, serum total cholesterol [TC] <200 mg/dL) and hypercholesterolemia group (n=11, serum TC ≥240 mg/dL) based on their concentrations of serum TC. The expression of various genes of interest, including COL1A1, IGF1, IL-6, MMP2, MMP3, MMP9, MMP13, TNMD, and TP53, was analyzed by real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). In addition, Western blot analysis was performed on the proteins encoded by interleukin (IL)-6 and TP53 that showed significantly different expression levels in real-time qRT-PCR.Results: Except for IGF1, the gene expression levels of IL-6, MMP2, MMP9, and TP53 were significantly higher in the hypercholesterolemic group than in the non-hypercholesterolemia group. Western blot analysis confirmed significantly higher protein levels of IL-6 and TP53 in the hypercholesterolemic group (p<0.05).Conclusions: We observed an increase in inflammatory cytokine and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) levels in hypercholesterolemic patients with rotator cuff tears. Increased levels of IL-6 and TP53 were observed at both the mRNA and protein levels. We suggest that the overexpression of IL-6 and TP53 may be a specific feature in rotator cuff disease patients with hypercholesterolemia.

Diabetes is the primary metabolic disorder listed among the top 10 death-causing diseases. The complete cure of diabetes is impossible, but the prevention and maintenance of glucose levels can reduce the diabetes severity. Objectives: To utilize the banana peel extracts to evaluate their antioxidant attributes and capability to attenuate diabetes. Methods: The antioxidant properties were assessed by measuring the DPPH, total phenolic contents (TPC), and total flavonoid contents (TFC) in ethanol, methanol, and acetone solutions. Moreover, the renal functional tests (Serum creatinine, serum urea, and BUN) and liver function tests (ALT, ASP, Serum Albumin, and total proteins) were also conducted during the 21 days experimental study in diabetes-induced (via Streptozotocin: 350 mg/kg) male Albino Wister rats. Results: The results indicated that the DPPH, TPC, and TFC contents were higher in methanol solution, i.e., 74.20±0.98%, 54.78±0.69mg GAE/g, and 39.48±0.37mg GAE/g respectively. Moreover, the results indicated that the unripe, ripe, and overripe significantly reduced liver and renal function parameters in diabetic rats. Conclusions: Banana peels have prominent potential to prevent diabetes-linked variables due to their higher antioxidant activity.

Social Media for Consumers and Value Creation Companies
Authors: Muraz Bayezid
Published: August 2022

In the mid-2000s, a digital marketing strategy gave numerous companies online prominence. Amazon posts unfavorable customer reviews on evaluation sites, while many corporations use email. Few people paid attention to digitalization's marketing advancements. Since 2006, when Facebook opened to the public, social media has influenced consumers and businesses. This trend is accelerating. Facebook, Google, and YouTube - live social networking sites or platforms with strong social networking aspects - had the most traffic in the summer of 2013. One in seven people in the globe are active Facebook members, despite being restricted to those over 13 and banned in China. Marketing managers and experts are just beginning to appreciate social media's explosive growth. It affected their beginning. The pinball analogy argues that social media marketing is chaotic and dynamic, replacing the bowling technique, which is linear and one-way. The pin-table example explains how value creation processes and structures might adapt to new marketing environments if organizations are to be regarded as profitable by active, highly connected consumers via networks. This study presents a fresh environment overview and important thoughts on marketing managers and enterprises.

Ethanolamine thioglycollate as a chemical agent for the neutralization & removal of oxidised pyrite
Authors: Cornish Lorraine , Doyle Adrian M.
Published: August 2022

A new technique for the removal of decay products from pyrltized fossil material is now employed in the British Museum (Natural History) Palaeontology Laboratory involving the use of ethanolamine thioglycollate. Dilute alcoholic solutions of this reagent effectively neutralize acidic pyrite oxidation products and removes the sulphates produced in one operation. As the reaction takes place in a water-free solvent there is little risk of damaging the intact pyrite and an added bonus is that the reagent is alkaline, allowing calcareous specimens to be cleaned safely.

Manufacturing in a Natural Resource Based Economy: Evidence from Canadian Plants
Authors: Moshiri Saeed , Østenstad Gry , Vermeulen Wessel N
Published: August 2022

This study investigates the effects of an oil boom on manufacturing plants performance. First, we derive several predictions using a model of heterogeneous firms. Second, we test these predictions on a plant level dataset using the Canadian Annual Survey of Manufacturers for 2000–2010. We exploit the time variation of the booming natural resource sector revenue in an oil-producing area in combination with the location of manufacturing plants to create an exogenous treatment variable. The outcome variables include plant level wages, employment, sales, and exports. We find that initial plant level productivity provides an important differentiation in average plants effects. Plants that are more productive become more likely to export in response to the oil boom, while less productive plants become less likely to export. Exporting firms become more likely to increase wages relative to non-exporting firms, but less likely to increase employment. While there is a great variety in the effect by sector, we do not observe that industry linkages with the resource industry drive plant performance.

A reneszánsz színpadi horror világképe
Authors: Koltai M. Gábor
Published: August 2022

This paper examines how the epistemological crisis born of the destabilisation of the old word order reshaped early Modern English theatre, and how its reaction to the threatening chaos led to the emergence of the genre ‘revenge tragedy’ – although ‘metaphysical horror’ would be a more accurate moniker. Three exceptionally important representatives of this unique genre, Thomas Middleton, John Webster and John Ford, all had a different way of processing the foundational cultural experiences of the era (in the fields of theology, anatomy, astrology, painting, politics and gender,) and elevating them to become a dramaturgical organising principle.

Integrating social media into classroom language teaching has been argued to be beneficial for both students and teachers. However, little is known about using two social media platforms in one online language class session, especially to support the teaching and learning process during the COVID19 transition to online teaching. This case study explores the use of Zoom and Facebook (henceforth referred to as Zoom-booking) as English language teaching support platforms during the COVID19 online teaching of a general English course by one English as a foreign language teacher (EFL) at a university in Thailand. We adopted the concept of teaching presence and netnography as a perspective. Findings from the online classroom observation, online traces (written text or posts, videos, PowerPoint slides, and images), and interviews revealed that our teacher-participant perceived Zoom-booking the online language classroom as personal and institutional. This suggests that while Zoom-booking supports teaching presence for synchronous and asynchronous teaching modalities, it also highlights the need for teachers to respond to their language learners’ needs. We discuss the implications, and we offer recommendations for future studies.

De onde vieram nossos antepassados? Essa pergunta tem guiado milhares de pessoas em uma busca por suas origens, alimentada pela divulgação de testes genéticos nas redes sociais, comercializados por empresas privadas que oferecem respostas para questionamentos como esse. Assim, os testes de ancestralidade vêm ganhando popularidade, levantando questões importantes sobre seu impacto na ciência e no cotidiano da sociedade. No presente artigo são abordados conceitos de genética de populações que constituem a base para os testes, além de reflexões sobre as possibilidades de aplicação das informações obtidas a partir dos dados genéticos - da expansão do conhecimento sobre a história evolutiva humana aos usos indevidos que podem levar à segregação social.

O PAPEL E A FUNÇÃO DO TRADUTOR E DA TRADUÇÃO NA ATUAL SOCIEDADE GLOBALIZADA
Authors: Vitti Sylvia Cristina de Azevedo Vitti , Salvador Busato de Azevedo Maria Alice
Published: August 2022

A prática da tradução é considerada uma das atividades mais antigas do mundo. A atividade tradutória tem sido praticada desde o início da história da civilização humana a partir da necessidade de comunicação entre povos de línguas distintas e costumes diversos.  São conhecidos relatos de traduções famosas realizadas na Antiguidade, como a da pedra da Roseta, dos trabalhos de Lívio Andrônico no séc. III a.C. e de Cícero no séc. I a.C.. Mais tarde, já no séc. XVI ficou famosa a tradução da bíblia do latim para o alemão por Martinho Lutero. Com o desenvolvimento da civilização, a atividade tradutória foi sendo sistematizada e aprimorada, surgindo teorias sobre a sua prática e ética e o papel e responsabilidade do tradutor em relação ao texto traduzido, assim como sobre as diferentes modalidades de tradução, a literal e a do sentido do texto. Atualmente, o fenômeno da globalização, decorrente dos avanços tecnológicos e a intensa comunicação e contato entre povos e culturas diversas ao redor do globo, colocam em destaque as atividades de tradução e do tradutor não somente na língua inglesa, considerada a língua da globalização, como também em outras línguas. É crescente a importância da tradução e do papel do tradutor, que tem sido considerado um mediador cultural, servindo de ponte entre diferentes culturas. Um dos exemplos mais expressivos da aplicação da tradução e do papel do tradutor para o progresso da humanidade a fim de promover o entendimento e resolução de conflitos em nível global é o do trabalho realizado dentro da Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU) e da União Europeia (UE), onde profissionais de muitas diferentes línguas trabalham como tradutores e intérpretes.

Peter the Great and the Formation of a Man of a New Culture
Authors: Pchelov E. V.
Published: August 2022

The article is devoted to the most important aspect of Peter the Great’s cultural policy – the formation of a new man. The way to do this was not only an external change in appearance (clothing, appearance, secular manners), but also the transformation of fundamental categories of everyday culture, which covered relatively wide segments of the population. These important categories include symbols and emblems, coins, awards, flags and coats of arms, letters and numbers, calendar, as well as geographical names. Peter consistently carried out reforms in these areas, carrying them out in the context of the general policy of westernization, however, adapting these categories of culture to domestic traditions. In some cases, innovations were introduced at the legislative level, in some - modernization took place in a gradual, evolutionary way. As a result, by the mid-1710s, a new calendar, a new appearance of printed and handwritten text, new numbers, new monetary denominations in coin incarnation with portrait images and coats of arms, new state symbols and national colors, a new name of the new capital, i.e. all those factors with which a person is constantly in contact in everyday life. The change in these categories of everyday life laid the foundation for a new culture of Russia and contributed to the formation of the consciousness of a new person of this culture.

Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) has been constructed for estimating the geometrical parameters of bead-on plate obtained through Pulse TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding, also known as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). For this, the dataset have been taken from the experimental work. Welding voltage, welding current, torch travel speed and pulse frequency have been considered to be the input parameters to predict weld bead width, height of reinforcement and depth of penetration. Hidden layers are varied. 6 numbers of nodes in the hidden layer has been found to give the best results in this work. Estimated values of bead width, depth of penetration and height of reinforcement have been found to be quite close to the experimental observation.
