TÜRK KÜLTÜRÜNDE HAŞHAŞ (AFYON BİTKİSİ) KULLANIMI (11-14. YÜZYIL ANADOLU’SUNDA)
Authors: Kaya Selim
Published: February 2024

Haşhaş, Orta Çağda gıda maddesi olarak tüketilmenin yanında tıbbî bir ilaç olarak uykuyu teşvik etmek, sindirime yardımcı olmak, öksürük, mide ve bağırsak rahatsızlıklarını gidermek için insanlara tavsiye edilmiştir. İlk Çağdan beri kullanılan haşhaşın tohumu, kabuğu veya sütü Orta Çağda medreseler, tekkeler, zaviyeler ve halk hekimliğinde; sakinleştirici, uyutucu, ağrı kesici, bayıltıcı ayrıca keyif verici özelliği sebebiyle kullanılmıştır. Daha çok gıda, ilaç ve aklı gideren uyuşturucu özelliği ile bilinen haşhaşın zaman içinde organik gübre, enerji, ticarî ve sanaî bir ürün ve sanat eserlerinde motif olarak kullanıldığı da görülmektedir. Çalışma önemli bir kültür ögesi olan haşhaşın Orta Çağda tarihî, tıbbî ve tasavvufî eserlerdeki ifadesi ve kullanım alanlarını konu edinmiştir. Haşhaşın tarihi süreçte Orta Çağda, özellikle de Anadolu’da neden ve nasıl kullanıldığını tespit etmek amaçlanmıştır. 11-14. yüzyılları kapsayan çalışmada, karma araştırma yöntemi, literatür taraması ve metin inceleme tekniği kullanılmıştır. Makale haşhaşın Anadolu özelinde tarihî, tıbbî ve tasavvufî kaynaklarda ifadesini ve kullanım sebeplerini bütüncül bir yaklaşımla ele alan ilk çalışma olması nedeniyle önemlidir. Haşhaşın Orta Çağda halk hekimliğindeki yerine ve gelişim seyrine ışık tutan akademik çalışmaların azlığı sebebiyle, çalışmanın literatüre katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir. Ayrıca uyuşturucuyla aklın işlevsizleşmesine ve zihnin körleşmesine yönelik Anadolu tıp tarihi ile ilgili çalışmalara ve Orta Çağ Türk tarihine yönelik araştırmalara bilimsel katkı sağlayacağı ümit edilmektedir. Türkler Anadolu’yu fethettikten sonra binlerce yıllık haşhaş kültürünü devam ettirmiş ve haşhaşı daha çok gıda ve ilaç olarak kullanmışlardır. Orta Çağ tarih, tıp ve tasavvuf kaynaklarında haşhaş farklı şekillerde, bir konuyu örneklendirmek, izah etmek, insan akıl ve ruh sağlığına olan zararlarını dile getirmek ya da ölçülü kullanılması şartıyla faydalarını belirtmek için zikredilmiştir. Haşhaşın gıda olarak kullanımı ciddi bir sorun oluşturmazken, afyunun, eczacılık ve tıp alanları dışında kullanımı sağlık sorunlarının ortaya çıkmasına neden olmuştur.

The importance of day-ahead load forecasting cannot be overstated. Electricity load forecasting is highly important because it allows electric distribution utilities to increase their transmission efficiency and their revenues, increase the reliability of power supply, and correct decisions for future developments. In this paper, day-ahead load forecasting was studied using multivariate time series analysis. Traditional forecasting method such as seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) was used. Machine learning algorithms such as Feed Forward Neural Network (FFNN) and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) were also utilized to determine their applicability to short-term load forecasting. For SARIMA, only historical hourly load was needed while FFNN and LSTM required the addition of temperature data, hour of the day and day of the week, special events and previous hour load. In the prediction, FFNN and LSTM performed better with mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of 1.80 and 1.75%, respectively, compared with SARIMA with a MAPE of 4.48%. The study demonstrated that machine learning like FFNN and LSTM outperformed the traditional SARIMA models, highlighting their effectiveness in applications such as short-term load forecasting in time series prediction.

A study was conducted to document traditional knowledge on plants with economic and ethnobotanical significance used by the communities in the vicinity of the boundary of Bungo Range National Park (BRNP). Eight key villages were selected for this study, viz. Tringgus, Pedaun Bawah, Bijuray Mongag, Puruh Semadang, Bengoh Rais, Temurang, Abang Kiding and Rejoi. The surveys encompass interviews, field samplings with documentation and the preliminary results are presented. A total of 366 species from 261 genera and 102 families of plants with ethnobotanical uses were recorded. The family Zingiberaceae (9 genera, 22 species) is most utilised by the communities near the BRNP, followed by Euphorbiaceae (11 genera, 18 species) and Fabaceae with 16 species from 13 genera; whereas Asteraceae and Piperaceae were the two most popular plant families used by the Bidayuh communities for medicinal purposes whilst Zingiberaceae, Anacardiaceae, Cucurbitaceae and Poaceae were the four most popular plant families harvested for foods. More work still remains to be done as this documentation is still far from satisfactory.

An Experimental Investigation of Syngas Composition from Small-Scale Biomass Gasification
Authors: Khezri R. , Azlina W. , Tan H.B.
Published: February 2024

The proposed study is to evaluate the performance of a modular biomass gasification to produce syngas for the purpose of utilizing as supplementary source for power generation application. Experiments were carried out in two different-scale reactors (a 1Kwfluidized bed cylindrical gasifier, 370mm height and 54mm of diameter and a 5Kw self-sustaining fluidized bed gasifier, 700mm height and 127mm diameter) at different temperatures and equivalent ratios (ER). The selected biomass is palletized Napier grass to be used as the feedstock for both reactors. The result data shows an increasing yield in syngas (CO + H2) by increasing the temperature. Furthermore, it shows that an ER of 0.2 is best performing. Apart from retrieving high syngas yields, an ER of 0.2 also showed to have the least oil production and the most heating value and carbon conversion which is desirable for a gasification process. Once with the optimum ER and the maximum yield of syngas, gasification efficiency and therefore the potential of its energy generation is expected to meet the prospects.

Keywords : Napier grass, gasifier, equivalent ratio, gasification efficiency

LA LITERATURA DEL BARROCO ESPAÑOL EN LA CULTURA Y EN LAS LETRAS SERBIAS
Authors:   Universidad de Belgrado, STOJANOVIĆ JASNA
Published: February 2024

In this article we summarize in what consists the presence of the Spanish Literature of the Baroque in Serbian Literature and Culture. We mention the three most important authors who have left the deepest mark (Cervantes, Lope and Calderón) and draw a list of their works ―translated, adapted, studied and / or represented in the Serbian stages. We also refer to the influence exercised by these authors in our Literature from the beginning of their reception (XVIII century) to the present day (Don Quixote in the first place, in the narrative, in children's literature, in the language and culture in general). We show that the dramas and comedies of Lope and Calderón have a history of premieres in our country that last almost 150 years. Don Quixote, Don Juan and Segismundo have become myths and are now part of the Serbian culture.
THE SOURCE OF SIN OR «AN INSTRUMENT WHICH ELEVATES SOULS»? TOMÁS LUIS DE VICTORIA: PROFESSIONAL ETHICS AND SELF-RESTRAINT
Authors:   SIAS – The State Institute of Arts Studies (Moscow), RIZNYCHENKO MARYNA
Published: February 2024

This article explores Tomás Luis de Victoria’s views on the art of music, its role in human spiritual development, the moral responsibility of a composer, as well as his own personal choice in the profession declared in the preface to the collection of liturgical works (Cantica B. Virginis vulgo Magnificat, 1581) published in Rome. Victoria’s beliefs are discussed in the context of the Renaissance culture with particular attention given to their correlation with the humanistic opinions on man’s self-improvement and the liberal arts’ role in the process. Particular attention is given to the influence of Victoria’s ethical position on his practice as a composer, namely, his decision to dedicate his talent to church genres exclusively. Additionally, the paper focuses on Victoria’s method of using rhetorical techniques in his motet Pueri hebraeorum in order to enhance an intellectual and emotional impact of his works on listeners.

Do Belt and Road Countries Promote Global Value Chains?
Authors: Lim Siphat
Published: February 2024

ABSTRACT In order to strengthen the partnership both economically and politically among countries in the region, the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) was introduced and implemented since 2013 by the People Republic of China. The main purpose of this policy is to provide the financial aids to the member states to develop necessary fundamental infrastructures such as roads, bridges, highways, railways, hydro dam and develop other sectors. Such an investment is vital to the member states to build their capacity to increase and strengthen their domestic production, especially encourage exporting the products to foreign markets. Moreover, BRI also aims to connect the production chains among the member states to allow them to share technology and build a strong manufacturing foundation and strengthen the competitive advantage. The purpose of this study, therefore, is to understand how the BRI encourage and increase the Global Value Chains (GVCs) participation. The Probit model is adopted in this study to predict the propensity score and also used to compare the economic structure between the BR and Non-BR member states. Based on the Balancing test, the result shows that the economic structure of BR countries, known as the treatment group are not similar to the Non-BR countries or control group. Last but not least, the empirical results of Different-in-Different (DID) model has indicated in contrast that becoming the member state of the BRI does not encourage the GVCs. Despite BRI is implemented since 2013 until now, it does not encourage the GVCs participation, instead it decreases the GVCs participation. On the contrary, the FTA between China and other partners is the major factor that encourages the GVCs participation. Keywords: Global Value Chains; Probit Model; Different-in-Different Model.
Land Registration in Cambodia
Authors: Hap Phalthy
Published: February 2024

ABSTRACT The purpose of this article was to discover how private land in Cambodia has been registered since the introduction of land privatization in 1989. Many government strategies have been made in order to successfully grant private ownership to Cambodian citizens. The annual reports from the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction were mainly used to analyze the result of output of the land registration. The research result found that government commitment plays an important role in completing the nation-wide land registration via systematic land registration. The research suggested that speeding up land registration would attract investors to invest in land since the land ownership security can be guaranteed. Keywords: Land registration; land management; land ownership; land privatization; Cambodia
Why ASEAN’s Post-Pandemic Economic Recovery will be Mainly China-Dependent?
Authors: Sviatko Martin
Published: February 2024

ABSTRACT Historians will certainly dedicate particular attention to the period of 2020-2021, when the COVID–19 pandemic raged and wreaked havoc around the world – possibly viewing this event as a critical, once-in-a-lifetime disruptor that singlehandedly divided our era into a pre-and post-pandemic one. However, assessing the economic landscape of the ASEAN region allows us to take a slightly different approach, whereby the current pandemic is viewed as accelerating the already established underlying processes underpinning ASEAN’s economic realities. This article attempts to examine what the post-pandemic economic recovery of ASEAN might look like in 2021 and analyze those factors that are likely to facilitate such a recovery.

Fixing hair using a hair-fixing sheet: better than hairpins?
Authors: Lee Hye Mi , Lee Hyeon Hee , Na Young Cheon
Published: February 2024

Identifying tumors or wounds on the scalp is difficult because hair blocks the vision during surgery and suturing. In the meantime, we have commonly used hairpins to hold the hair for a clearer view; however, we would like to suggest a new method, a “hair-fixing sheet,” consisting of hook-like surface. We applied the two methods, hair-fixing sheets and hairpins, assuming several situations. In these situations, it was possible to fix a wider range or various shapes more conveniently using a hair-fixing sheet than using several hairpins at a similarly low cost. In addition, it was easy to change the hair to be fixed, remove it postoperatively, and prevent the hair from being pulled out, thereby preventing additional postoperative pain.
Facial palsy reconstruction
Authors: Woo Soo Hyun , Kim Young Chul , Oh Tae Suk
Published: February 2024

The facial nerve stimulates the muscles of facial expression and the parasympathetic nerves of the face. Consequently, facial nerve paralysis can lead to facial asymmetry, deformation, and functional impairment. Facial nerve palsy is most commonly idiopathic, as with Bell palsy, but it can also result from a tumor or trauma. In this article, we discuss traumatic facial nerve injury. To identify the cause of the injury, it is important to first determine its location. The location and extent of the damage inform the treatment method, with options including primary repair, nerve graft, cross-face nerve graft, nerve crossover, and muscle transfer. Intracranial proximal facial nerve injuries present a challenge to surgical approaches due to the complexity of the temporal bone. Surgical intervention in these cases requires a collaborative approach between neurosurgery and otolaryngology, and nerve repair or grafting is difficult. This article describes the treatment of peripheral facial nerve injury. Primary repair generally offers the best prognosis. If primary repair is not feasible within 6 months of injury, nerve grafting should be attempted, and if more than 12 months have elapsed, functional muscle transfer should be performed. If the affected nerve cannot be utilized at that time, the contralateral facial nerve, ipsilateral masseter nerve, or hypoglossal nerve can serve as the donor nerve. Other accompanying symptoms, such as lagophthalmos or midface ptosis, must also be considered for the successful treatment of facial nerve injury.

Orbital floor fractures are commonly encountered, but the dislocation of the eyeball into the maxillary sinus is relatively rare. When it does occur, globe dislocation can have serious consequences, including vision loss, enucleation, and orbito-ocular deformity. Immediate surgical intervention is typically attempted when possible. However, severe comorbidities and poor general health can delay necessary surgery. In this report, we present the surgical outcomes of a 70-year-old woman who received delayed treatment for traumatic eyeball dislocation into the maxillary sinus due to a subarachnoid hemorrhage and hemopneumothorax. Additionally, we propose a treatment algorithm based on our clinical experience and a review of the literature.

Background: The pain caused by local anesthetic injection can lead to patient anxiety prior to surgery, potentially necessitating sedation or general anesthesia during the excision procedure. In this study, we aim to compare the pain relief efficacy and safety of using a digital automatic anesthetic injector for local anesthesia.Methods: Thirty-three patients undergoing excision of a benign soft tissue tumor under local anesthesia were prospectively enrolled from September 2021 to February 2022. A single-blind, randomized controlled study was conducted. Patients were divided into two groups by randomization: the experimental group with digital automatic anesthetic injector method (I-JECT group) and the control group with conventional injection method. Before surgery, the Amsterdam preoperative anxiety information scale was used to measure the patients’ anxiety. After local anesthetic was administered, the Numeric Pain Rating Scale was used to measure the pain. The amount of anesthetic used was divided by the surface area of the lesion was recorded.Results: Seventeen were assigned to the conventional group and 16 to the I-JECT group. The mean Numeric Pain Rating Scale was 1.75 in the I-JECT group and 3.82 in conventional group. The injection pain was lower in the I-JECT group (p< 0.01). The mean Amsterdam preoperative anxiety information scale was 11.00 in the I-JECT group and 9.65 in conventional group. Patient’s anxiety did not correlate to injection pain regardless of the method of injection (p= 0.47). The amount of local anesthetic used per 1 cm 2 of tumor surface area was 0.74 mL/cm2 in the I-JECT group and 2.31 mL/cm2 in the conventional group. The normalization amount of local anesthetic was less in the I-JECT group (p< 0.01). There was no difference in the incidence of complications.Conclusion: The use of a digital automatic anesthetic injector has shown to reduce pain and the amount of local anesthetics without complication.

Cherubism is a rare fibro-osseous condition characterized by bilateral expansion of the mandible and maxilla. Due to its rarity, treatment guidelines for cherubism have not been clearly established. Observation without surgical intervention is typically recommended, as cherubism often regresses spontaneously after puberty. However, a surgical intervention may be necessary if aggressive lesions lead to severe complications. In this report, we present a case involving surgical management of cherubism that did not spontaneously regress until early adulthood. An 18-year-old man was diagnosed with cherubism, presenting characteristic upward-looking eyes and a swollen face. He strongly desired surgical management. Gross contouring of the mandible was performed using an osteotome. Subsequently, delicate contouring was performed by bone burring and curettage. The remaining multiple locular bony defects were filled with demineralized bone matrix. No major complications, including infection and hematoma, occurred during the 8-month follow-up period. The facial contour remained stable without the aggravation of cherubism. The patient was satisfied with the cosmetic results. Considering that cherubism is a rare disease globally, with few reported cases in Korea, and that treatment guidelines are not clearly established, we anticipate that the results of this case will contribute to the development of future protocols for treating cherubism.

Medicinal plants and their endophytes are one of the efficient producers of diverse secondary metabolites with therapeutic importance. In the present study, an endophytic fungus Talaromyces spp. isolated from Syzygium samarangense was subjected to whole-genome sequencing and Antibiotics and Secondary Metabolite Analysis Shell (AntiSMASH) annotation to identify biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) of secondary metabolites and their biosynthetic pathways. The Funannotate results revealed that the Talaromyces isolate has a total of 30.5Mb genome consisting of 372 contigs, 372 scaffolds and 47.64% GC content. In addition, 114 tRNA, 12722 functional mRNA, 12721 CDS transcripts, and 12721 protein-coding sequences were predicted and annotated using various BLAST databases. AntiSMASH revealed the presence of 76 BGCs, including 28 T1 Polyketide synthase (T1 PKS), 10 Nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs), 9 terpene, 1 Indole, 12 NRPs like, 4 T1 PKS and NRPs like, 2 T1 PKS Indole, 1 NRPs like terpene, 3 NRPs T1 PKS, 1 Indole NRPs, 2 betalactone, 1 phosphonate, 1 fungal-RiPP T1 PKS and 1 Other type. The analysis also predicted the occurrence of enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of some of the important secondary metabolites such as Pyranonigrin, Squalestatin -S, Azanigerone -A, Asperterpenoid -A, Napthopyrone, Clavaric acid, and Fusarin.

usarium wilt disease is a major biotic factor limiting watermelon production in the derived savanna agroecology of southeast Nigeria. The study hypothesized that variety could interact with the fungicide spraying regime to improve the agronomic performance of watermelon (Citrulus lanatus (Thunb) Matsum and Nakai). The objectives of the study were: to assess the effect of fungicide spraying regimes on disease incidence, severity, and agronomic performance of three watermelon varieties; and to identify and characterize the fungal causal organism of Fusarium wilt of watermelon in the derived savanna agroecology of southeast Nigeria. Three varieties of watermelon (Jubaly, red diamond, and sweet sangaria) and four fungicide spraying regimes (No spray, weekly, bi-weekly, and tri-weekly spray) were evaluated for agronomic performance, and disease incidence and severity in a 3 × 4 factorial in a randomized complete block design replicated thrice. Data were collected on phenological, growth and yield indices, and disease incidence and severity. Analysis of variance was done using Genstat 16th edition and GraphPad Prism 9 was used to construct the graphs. Variety significantly affected agronomic traits as well as disease incidence and severity. The Jubaly variety performed better than other varieties in most of the growth and yield parameters measured despite recording higher disease incidence and severity scores. Weekly application of fungiforce recorded the lowest disease incidence (16.67, 16.67, and 50%) and severity (6.7, 6.7, and 10%) at 9, 10, and 11 weeks after planting, respectively. The interaction effect of the Jubaly variety and weekly spray was consistently higher in vine length, node number, fruit number, and fruit yield. Morphological isolation and identification of the fungal causal organism showed the presence of Fusarium species. Further molecular characterization by DNA extraction from the Fusarium isolate and sequencing using the Sanger sequencing method confirmed the presence of Fusarium equiseti. The basic local alignment search tool result showed 94–100% similarity with F. equiseti strain WZ-98 from the NCBI Gene bank. The organism was identified as F. equiseti based on the Phylogeny.

Triphala is an equal mixture of the three myrobalans Terminalia chebula (Haritaki), Terminalia bellerica (Bibhitaki), and Phyllanthus emblica (Amalaki), according to the Ayurvedic Formulary of India. Triphala is an herbal supplement that is high in antioxidants and has a number of advantageous qualities. Numerous investigations conducted in recent years have shown that Triphala has anti-mutagenic and radioprotective properties. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to examine if an ethanolic extract of Triphala had any inhibitory effects on hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HCCs). Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis was used to identify and quantify various phytochemicals in triphala extract (TE). Further, in two human liver cancer cells (HepG2 and Hep3B), TE was examined for its cytotoxic potential by [3-(4,5- dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] assay. Apoptosis was promoted by TE, which also suppressed the production of anti-apoptotic proteins and triggered poly-ADP ribose polymerase cleavage. Significantly, TE has a cytotoxic effect against liver cancer cells. The current study demonstrated that the ethanolic extract of triphala has anticancer properties against HCC. As a result, Triphala may offer a potential alternative to conventional therapy for cancer patients.
