Plasma copper levels in ankylosing spondylitis with cardiac involvements Cardiac abnormallities in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) have been associated with especially aortic valves and myocardial abnormalities. Otherwise, it has been known that copper deficiency can disturb the cross binding of elastin and collagen fibrils. So, the role of plasma copper levels in AS with cardiac involvement was investigated in this study. Twenty eight cases AS (ali patients met published New York Criteria for AS) were selected for the study. Cardiac involvement was investigated by colour flow Doppler echocardiographic examination. Then, patients divided to two groups. in group I (AS with cardiac abnormalities, n:14) plasma copper determined and compared with group Il (AS without cardiac abnormalities n:15). Plasma copper levels were found to be lower in group I than of the group il. Nutritional factors such as copper might be play a role in occurrence with cardiac abnormallities and effect on mortality. ·

The implementation of intellectual property rights to enhance music business in Zimbabwe: Challenges and prospects
Authors: Nyathi Albert , Maguraushe Wonder
Published: May 2023

In the Zimbabwe music industry, the issue of copyright law implementation has been problematic with intellectual property rights violations plaguing the society and resulting in musicians failing to fully benefit financially from their creations. This study is an attempt to find out how musicians are benefiting from their intellectual property that is being used by various businesses including broadcasters. We argue that the problem of piracy has become an Achilles tendon for many artists despite the presence of a copyright law enforcement regime in the country. This article examines the nature and consequences of the copyright law in the country, as well as the way in which ZIMURA is implementing it to advance the cause of popular musicians. The article illustrates how the challenges faced by ZIMURA serve to impoverish Zimbabwean musicians in unheralded ways that leave a good number of artists poor and famous. This qualitative study uses participant observation, document analysis and key informant interviews with purposively selected informants to elucidate the implementation of intellectual property rights in Zimbabwe’s music industry. The analysis is informed by the Sustainable Livelihoods Approach as well as Bourdieu’s concept of cultural capital. The findings show that in Zimbabwe music is taken as free property by most users who either sell pirated copies or access them for personal use without paying anything. From the study, it is clear that musicians are not getting a fair share of their intellectual property in the form of royalties. It is also notable that music that is appreciated more gets paid more royalties than music which is not popular with broadcasters and audiences.
Linearization via the Lie derivative
Authors: Chicone Carmen , Swanson Richard
Published: May 2023

The standard proof of the Grobman-Hartman linearization theorem for a flow at a hyperbolic rest point proceeds by first establishing the analogous result for hyperbolic fixed points of local diffeomorphisms. In this exposition we present a simple direct proof that avoids the discrete case altogether. We give new proofs for Hartman's smoothness results: A \({\cal C}^2\) flow is \({\cal C}^1\) linearizable at a hyperbolic sink, and a \({\cal C}^2\) flow in the plane is \({\cal C}^1\) linearizable at a hyperbolic rest point. Also, we formulate and prove some new results on smooth linearization for special classes of quasi-linear vector fields where either the nonlinear part is restricted or additional conditions on the spectrum of the linear part (not related to resonance conditions) are imposed.

Published: May 2023

Humans interact using verbal and nonverbal communication tools, such as messages, pictures, sounds, and gestures. This study is intended to examine the connotative and denotative meanings of verbal and nonverbal signs in the “Rexona Clinical Protection” advertisement. The study is designed with a qualitative approach. The observation method was used in collecting the data. The data was obtained from the website Rexona. There are three items of the data analysis, namely verbal and nonverbal signs analyzed based on Saussure’s semiotic theory, and the meaning of the verbal and nonverbal signs was analyzed using Barthes’s theory. Wierbicka’s color theory lends support to the denotative and connotative meanings. As a result, the writer discovered six verbal and six nonverbal signs in this advertisement. Advertisers highlight the products in this advertisement, attempting to persuade viewers that using “Rexona Clinical Protection” products is one of the most important things we can do to protect our bodies from body odor and excessive sweating. From this analysis, it can be concluded that the “Rexona Clinical Protection” advertisement uses meaningful sentences to attract the attention of its target consumers.

INFLUENCE OF EXTRACTION METHODS ON THE COMPOSITION OF VARIOUS FATTY ACIDS IN SHEA BUTTER PROCESSED FROM SELECTED SHEA KERNELS
Authors: Saba A. M. , Baba A. H. , Mohammed I. Y. , Abdulqadir M
Published: May 2023

The functional groups and the constituent composition of Shea butter (a mixture of stearic, oleic, linoleic, palmitic and arachidic fatty acids along with bioactive components) are greatly influenced by the climatic conditions of the Shea tree, the processing conditions of the Shea kernel, and the extraction methods of Shea butter. Also, the choice and application of Shea butter (Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics, Chocolates) are greatly influenced by the composition and functional groups present in butter. In this research, optimally processed Shea kernel (4.3-day Shea fruit picking period, 120 minutes Shea nut boiling duration, 86
oC drying temperature) and locally processed Shea kernel were subjected to a potpourri of Shea butter extraction methods to investigate their influence on the variations of the constituent fatty acids. Fourier Transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS) techniques were used to establish the functional groups and the mass composition of the constituent fatty acids. The results show that for all samples, stearic and oleic acids predominate jointly, constituting a minimum of 84%. Also, samples contained alkane, alkene, carbonyl, and ester functional groups. Shea butter obtained from optimally processed Shea kernel and optimum traditional extraction method gave 45.9% and 39.2% mass composition of Stearic and Oleic acid, respectively, and traces of the other acids and the balance bio-actives. Results for other Shea kernel treatment and butter extraction methods are also reported.
EFFECTIVE CAPACITY AS A MANAGEMENT AND ASSESSMENT TOOL FOR A HYDRO-POWER STATION
Authors: Ojongbede H. A. , Omeiza I. O. A. , Thomas C. T , Olufeagba B. J.
Published: May 2023

Management of large power stations in a developing nation like Nigeria is difficult due to inadequate technical expertise and funding available to plant managers, engineers and technicians. Often the effectiveness of the plants is couched in mystery as measures of “reliability”, “maintainability” and in aggregate terms “availability”, which are not easily understood by funding authorities. A more practical measure that can be easily interpreted by even the most technically uninformed, for the purpose of decision making is a new metric (Effective Capacity) that precisely represents the actual ability of the plant to power loads. Effective Capacity is determined for each unit by calculating its total energy output over a specified time and averaging it to determine the effective performance of the plant in that period. This method was applied quarterly in each year to the five turbo-alternators in the Jebba Hydropower Station (JHEPS) in Nigeria using the data collected over a total period of eleven years (2004 - 2014). The computed effective capacity for each turbo-alternator was studied by plotting the quarterly effective capacity, the frequency polygon of the quarterly effective capacity and their cumulative density functions over the said period. The results showed that the machines were working less than the rated values for most part of the period which implies under-utilization and wastage of substantial revenue - generation potential, making argument for additional funding of the station.
OPTIMIZATION OF MACHINING PARAMETERS OF LOW CARBON STEEL FOR TURNING OPERATION USING TAGUCHI ANALYSIS
Authors: Yakubu S. O. , Bello Y.
Published: May 2023

Cutting fluids play an important role in machine operations, tool life, workpiece quality, and overall productivity, because of their ability to prevent workpiece and cutting tool excessive heating. This paper investigates the optimal parameters for turning low carbon steel using formulated orange seed oil cutting fluid. The three process parameters considered in this paper were spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut. Orthogonal arrays, the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio, and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to find the optimal process parameter levels and analyze the effect of these parameters on surface roughness and flank wear. Following that, a confirmation test was run to compare the predicted results to the experimental results. From the results, the best S/N ratio of the main effect plot for the surface roughness stood at 180 rpm spindle speed, 0.105 mm/rev feed rate and 1.5mm depth of cut with R-Sq = 95.64% R-Sq(adj) = 89.09%. The Taguchi method has revealed that the feed rate has a significant role to play in producing the best surface quality and this was achieved at 64.50% of the contribution, followed by the spindle speed at 29.10% of the contribution, and the depth of cut at 20% of the contribution has the least role to play in producing the best surface quality. For flank wear, the S/N ratio of the main effect plot stood at 180 rpm spindle speed, 0.105 mm/rev feed rate and 1.0 mm depth of cut with R2 = 96.43%, R2(adj) = 91.07%. The least flank wear was obtained at 60.38% contribution of feed rate, 35.62% contribution for spindle speed and 0.43% contribution for depth of cut.

Authors: Castillo-Valdez Alexa Yamileth , González-González Francisco Javier , Hernández-Montaño Valeria , Picos-Contreras Javier Alejandro , Ríos-Apodaca Juan Antonio
Published: May 2023

El cannabis es un grupo de sustancias químicas presentes en la planta Cannabis sativa, conocida común[1]mente como marihuana. El principal cannabinoide psicoactivo y el más estudiado es el tetrahidrocannabinol (THC). Es la droga ilegal de mayor uso tanto a nivel nacional como mundial. Globalmente, se estima que cerca de 180 millones de personas la usan, principalmente jóvenes, quienes representan la población más vulnerable. Su popularidad se debe en parte a sus efectos depresores del sistema nervioso, entre los cuales se encuentran relajación, sensación de bienestar y alteraciones en la percepción además de los innumerables mitos acerca de sus aplicaciones terapéuticas, entre las cuales se encuentran alivio de dolo[1]res crónicos, mayor concentración, y, recientemente, se ha comentado sobre el efecto neuroprotector de algunos cannabinoides y su papel en el tratamiento de enfermedades neurodegenerativas, como la enfermedad de Alzheimer, la Esclerosis Múltiple y la enfermedad de Parkinson, siendo esta circunstancia la razón que justifica la realización de una revisión bibliográfica acerca de los efectos verdaderamente benéficos y sustentados científicamente, así como de los efectos neurotóxicos que podrían presentarse a corto y largo plazo, de tal forma que ambos puedan contrastarse para llegar a una conclusión.

Penelitian ini berjudul ”Konsep Jihad Perspektif Syekh ‘Abdul RaufAs-Singkili (Kajian Analisis Tafsir Turjuma>n Al-Mustafi>d)”, tema inidiangkat karena keresahan penulis terhadap fenomena konsepsi jihad yangterjadi pada masa ini, khususnya di Indonesia. Pemilihan tokoh kepada AbdulRauf As-Singkili karena beliau adalah mufassir pertama di Indonesia,sehingga penulis ingin mengetahui tentang bagaimanakah konsep jihadmenurut ‘Abdul Rauf As-Singkili di dalam Tafsirnya Turjuma>n al-Mustafi>d?Penelitian ini membahas beberapa ayat-ayat jihad (13 ayat jihad) yangmemiliki peran vital terhadap kesalahfahaman makna bagi mereka pelakuteror dengan mengatsnamakan jihad. Pembatasan masalah terhadap 13 ayatjihad dikarenakan banyak sekali ayat-ayat jihad di dalam al-Qur’an.Setelah ditelusuri secara mendalam dan dianalisis secara detail, AsSingkili cenderung lebih memaknai jihad dari satu sudut pandang yaknidengan perang secara khusus (perang dengan senjata), kendati demikianterdapat juga pemaknaan jihad secara global. Dan hal yang demikian akanmembuahkan sebuah hasil yang akan mendorong pembaca tafsir Turjuma>n alMustafi>d untuk bersikap hati-hati dalam memaknai ataupun menafsirkan alQur’an agar tidak terjerumus ke dalam kesalahan yang fatal.

Berawal dari suatu acara disebuah acara di TV, M. Quraish Shihab menjawab pertanyaan salah satu audiens tentang jilbab, Shihab menjelaskan dengan berbagai macam pendapat para ulama'. Jawaban ini membuat semua yang mendengarkan jawabannya menjadi resah, karena dianggap bertentang dengan paham yang ada di Indonesia. Dari kejadian ini penulis ingin membedah bagaimana metode penafsiran yang digunakan oleh Shihab, sehingga berpendapat seperti jawaban yang telah di utarakan. Metode yang digunakan di dalam penulisan skripsi ini, menggunakan metode pendekatan kualitatif. Di dalam skripsi ini juga menggunakan kajian pustaka yakni meneliti dengan menggunakan data yang sudah ada dan data-data yang yang mempunyai relevansi dengan judul skripsi ini. Dari penelitian ini melahirkan kesimpulan, bahwa dari kedua mufassir tersebut di dalam penggunaan metode tidak jauh berbeda, hanya saja Shihab lebih banyak menggunakan pendekatan bahasa, dan penggunaan metode sumber penafsirannya, dengan menukil berbagai pendapat, namun tanpa ada pentarjihan darinya. Berbeda dengan al-Qurtubi yang lebih sedikit menggunakan pendekatan bahasa, dan di dalam penggunaan metode sumber penafsirannya, ia menyatakan pentajihan pribadinya. Dari metode yang digunakan masing masing mufassir tersebuat juga mempunyai kesimpualan yang sama, atas kebolehan perempuan menampakkan wajah dan kedua telapak tangannya, hanya saja Shihab mengatakan bahwa tidak pantas mencela perempuan yang menampakkan dari apa yang telah disepakati oleh keduanya, karena masih ada ulama' yang memperbolehkan menampakkan selain wajah dan kedua telapak tangan.
