Background: The role of peripheral phosphorylated-α-Synuclein (p-α-syn) deposition on nerve degeneration in synucleinopathies is still unknown. Objective: To assess the cutaneous neural distribution of p-α-Syn deposits and its correlation with clinical data and with morphology and function of cutaneous sensory and autonomic nerves in early Parkinson’s disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy-parkinson type (MSA-p). Methods: We recruited 57 PD (F/M = 21/36; age 63.5±9.4 years) and 43 MSA-p (F/M = 16/27; age 62.3±9.0 years) patients within 2 years from motor symptoms. We applied questionnaires and clinical scales, sensory thresholds, and sudomotor testing to assess severity of motor and non-motor involvement and sensory and autonomic dysfunction. We quantified, in skin biopsy from thigh, leg, and fingertip, epidermal, pilomotor, and sudomotor nerve fibers, Meissner corpuscles and intrapapillary myelinated endings and the neural distribution of p-α-syn deposits. Results: Compared to controls, we found a cutaneous denervation paralleling functional and clinical impairment. Sensory and autonomic denervation was more severe in MSA-p than in PD. Deposits of p-α-syn were found in the majority of patients, with no significant differences among sites in both groups. Higher occurrence of p-α-syn deposits in autonomic nerves differentiated (p < 0.01) PD from MSA-p. p-α-syn deposits correlated positively with sudomotor function, epidermal, pilomotor and sudomotor nerve densities, and inversely with non-motor symptoms and disease progression. Conclusion: Our work demonstrated an early peripheral sensory and autonomic involvement in synucleinopathies, more severe in MSA-p than in PD. Higher p-α-syn deposits in autonomic nerves differentiated PD from MSA-p. p-α-syn deposits were associated with preserved innervation and slower disease progression.

Published: November 2022

PURPOSE: The incidence of dystonic cerebral palsy causing significant morbidity is on the rise. There is a paucity of evidence for the management of dystonia in children. METHODS: Forty-one children aged 6 months-5 years with predominantly dystonic cerebral palsy were started on a predetermined protocol of trihexyphenidyl (0.25–0.52 mg/kg) and followed up at 3, 6 and 12 weeks. Dystonia severity, motor function and developmental age at baseline and 12 weeks were compared using the Global Dystonia Scale (GDS), the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM), and Fine Motor/Perceptual Subscale of the Early Developmental Profile-2. Thirty-four children completed the entire 12 weeks of intervention. RESULTS: The mean age of participants was 25±11 months. A significant decrease in median total dystonia scores on the GDS was observed post-intervention (74.5 to 59, p < 0.0001), and 64% of participants gained motor milestones. GMFM scores increased significantly from a median of 19.8% pre-intervention to 26.5% post-intervention (p < 0.0001). There was improvement in the fine motor domain as compared to the baseline (p < 0.0001). The number of children classified at Gross Motor Function Classification System levels 1 and 2 increased to 47.05% from 5.88% in the pre-intervention group. CONCLUSION: Trihexyphenidyl significantly improved dystonia, motor function and development in children with dystonic cerebral palsy in this study. Additional studies are needed to clarify its role in larger numbers of children with this condition.
Applying interrater reliability measure for user credibility assessment in reputation-oriented service discovery
Authors: Paul Arnab , Dhar Sourish , Roy Sudipta
Published: November 2022

Service Oriented Architecture is built on services in which web service discovery is one of the most widely explored domains. Service reputation plays a vital role in the discovery process while selecting the optimal service from a large pool of functionally equivalent services. Reputation mechanism attempts to forecast the future performance of a service based on its past behaviors generally obtained in the form of feedback ratings submitted by users of the service. These feedback ratings about a service may vary from user to user. Variations in feedback ratings could be because of different users’ different subjective judgments and/or dishonest users’ purposely submitted unfair ratings. This paper proposes a service reputation measurement approach counting such diversified act of rating. To realize this goal, an efficient user credibility assessment methodology has been devised by employing the measure of interrater reliability. Experiments are performed to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed reputation measurement approach. The experimental results depict that the proposed approach can fairly assess service reputations in the presence of various kinds of raters in the system.
Ships that sail and other Divine signs; an analysis and contextualization of Surah 31:29-31
Authors: Dockrat Muhammad Ashraf Ebrahim
Published: November 2022

Chapter 31 of the Qur’an, known as Surah Luqman, verse 31 states: ‘Do not you see that the ships sail in the sea by the favour of Allah that He may show you of His signs’?. The addressee is alerted to a common phenomenon to which a theological explanation is then given. Additional to this immediate context, the expression, ‘ships sail in the sea’, may be framed in various ways. 

Preceding verse 31 attention is drawn to another phenomenon (29-30), dawn and twilight, accompanied by a more elaborate explanation, calling the listener and reader to recognise the Oneness of God. Following verse 31, a storm at sea and shipwreck are described (32), after which is a strong comment on the response of those who survived in relation to their attitude to God, Who rescued them from disaster. 

These three occurrences link to one another and to verses adjacent to them in various ways, depending (inter alia) on how the 34 verses of the Surah are divided. 

The contextual scope may be further enlarged by juxtaposing the event of ships sailing as well as each of the other two occurrences with similar statements in the rest of the Qur’an. Parallels resembling the three phenomena are also to be found in the Old Testament, although the mentioning of a ship sailing as an amazing event features only once.

Immediate and wider contexts multiply the perspectives within which ships that sail may be viewed, but also bring to question the function of context in hermeneutics.

Effect of temperature on embryogenesis of Trichuris ovis during in vitro cultivation
Authors: Petrenko M.
Published: November 2022

One of the priority tasks of animal husbandry development is environmental protection from contamination of environmental objects with eggs, larvae of helminths, cysts, and oocysts of intestinal parasites, which are dangerous for animals and humans. For this purpose, it is relevant to determine the leading factors and ways of transmission of pathogens of parasitoses, the terms of their development, and survival under various abiotic influences in the conditions of certain climatic regions. The work aimed to determine the influence of the temperature factor on the embryonic development of nematodes of the species Trichuris ovis, parasitizing sheep. It was established that the embryogenesis of T. ovis varies from 27 to 36 days, depending on the temperature regime, where the development of eggs occurs in 6 stages. The duration of each stage of embryonic development of trichurises of this species also depends on temperature. The temperature at 25 °C was the most susceptible for developing T. ovis eggs in laboratory conditions, where 80.67 % of invasive larvae were formed on the 36th day. At this temperature, the zygote stage lasted up to 9 days, crushing and formation of blastomeres – up to 12 days, bean-like embryo – up to 18 days, tadpole-like embryo – up to 24 days, and larva formation – up to 30 days. The temperature of 20 °С was less susceptible to developing T. ovis eggs, where 77.0 % of invasive eggs were formed on the 33rd day of cultivation. At this temperature, the zygote stage lasted up to 9 days, crushing and formation of blastomeres – up to 15 days, bean-like embryo – up to 18 days, tadpole-like embryo – up to 24 days, and larva formation – up to 33 days. At a temperature of 30 °С, the term of embryogenesis of T. ovis turned out to be the shortest – 27 days, but at the same time, the smallest number of invasive eggs was formed – 71.0 %. At this temperature, the zygote stage lasted up to 6 days, crushing and formation of blastomeres – up to 12 days, bean-like embryo – up to 15 days, tadpole-like embryo – up to 21 days, and larva formation – up to 24 days. The obtained research results expand the existing scientific data and will also allow us to effectively plan the timing of measures for destroying pathogens of sheep trichurosis in the embryonic stages of development in the external environment.
Coronaviruses: modern taxonomy and research chronology
Authors: Kalinina O. S. , Avdosieva I. K.
Published: November 2022

The classification of coronaviruses began in 1968 when five viruses (IBV, MHV, B814, 229E, and OC43) were united into an independent group, “coronaviruses”, based on the characteristic morphology of the virions. In 1971, the genus Coronavirus was formed, and in 1975, the family Coronaviridae, which in 1996 was included in the order Nidovirales. In 2009, the Coronaviridae family was divided into subfamilies. In 2018, new taxa of viruses were created – region, suborder, and subgenus, and in 2019 – kingdom, type, and class. According to the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses, issue No. 37 of 07.2021 (ratification of 03.2022), the family Coronaviridae belongs to the region Riboviria, kingdom Orthornavirae, phylum Pisuviricota, class Pisoniviricetes, order Nidovirales, suborder Cornidovirineae. The Coronaviridae family includes 54 viruses, which are grouped into three subfamilies (Letovirinae, Orthocoronavirinae, Pitovirinae), six genera (Alphaletovirus, Alphacoronavirus, Betacoronavirus, Deltacoronavirus, Gammacoronavirus, Alphapironavirus) and 28 subgenera. Representatives of the most numerous subfamily Orthocoronavirinae infect various species of mammals and birds, causing various pathologies: respiratory and intestinal infections, polyserositis, myocarditis, hepatitis, nephritis, neuroinfections, immunopathology. In particular, viruses that cause infectious bronchitis in chickens, transmissible gastroenteritis in pigs, epidemic diarrhea in pigs, encephalomyelitis in pigs, coronavirus infection in cattle, and epizootic catarrhal gastroenteritis in minks are relevant for veterinary practice. The natural reservoirs of coronaviruses from the genera Alphacoronavirus and Betacoronavirus are bats and birds from the genera Gammacoronavirus and Deltacoronavirus. Particularly dangerous human coronaviruses are SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, which cause emergent infections. The circulation of SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2 among animals is shown. The natural reservoir of these viruses is bats, and the intermediate hosts for SARS-CoV are Himalayan civets, one-humped camels for MERS-CoV, and pangolins for SARS-CoV-2. The circulation of SARS-CoV-2 among different species of domestic and wild animals leads to the accumulation of mutations, which causes the adaptation of the virus to new hosts and ecological niches and its subsequent introduction into the human population.
Pathomorphological characteristics of hemophilic polyserositis of pigs

Published: November 2022

It is difficult to differentiate the disease by clinical signs; therefore, the main criteria for diagnosing hemophilic polyserositis should be considered pathological changes characteristic of the disease. Piglets are aged 30–60 days are most often affected. On average, pigs can die five hours after the manifestation of clinical signs. The autopsy results have revealed severe polyserositis, fibrinous layering around the lungs and heart, swelling of the liver with fibrinous deposition, and intestinal epithelium overloaded with fibrin pellicle. The autopsy of the dead piglets has shown the changes, characterized by massive overlays of fibrin pellicles and threads on the surface of the costal and pulmonary pleura, diaphragm, peritoneum, omentum, the serous membrane of the intestine, as well as the liver capsule. In the thoracic and abdominal cavities and pericardium, a significant accumulation of straw-yellow exudate with abundant fibrin threads has been revealed. Rib and lung pleura were covered with fibrinous overlays of gray-white and gray-yellow color. When the overlays were removed, swelling, dullness, matting, and sometimes bluishness of the pleura with a grayish tint were found. In several cases, fibrinous layering was of considerable thickness, which caused the fusion of serous sheets. Macroscopically, the bronchial and mediastinal lymph nodes were enlarged, juicy, grayish, or grayish-red in color; sometimes, dotted hemorrhages were observed in them. A cloudy, reddish liquid was flowing from the surface of their cut. At the pathological examination, the lungs were enlarged in volume, dense in consistency, and dark red. Interstitial pneumonia was observed, and in some cases, fibrinous inflammation of the pleura and foci of atelectasis alternated with small emphysema areas. The liver was enlarged and flabby; the lobular structure was weakly expressed. The cut surface was dull, gray-red, and sometimes red-brown. The vessels of the small intestine were injected. That is, fibrinous polysterositis, arthritis, and meningoencephalitis are characteristic of the pathology. Therefore, from the pathomorphological changes, it can be assumed that the dissemination of the causative agent of hemophilic polyserositis occurs in a short time. In the acute stage of the disease and fatal cases, the pathogen is often found in the joints, serous membranes, spleen, liver, lungs, pericardium, and brain. The localization of the pathogen is specific – it is the serous membranes. The penetration of the causative agent into the brain can indirectly judge the relatively high invasive properties of the microorganism.

The relevance of the problem of determining toxic elements and micro-macroelements in biological fluids is increasing in connection with the pollution of the environment by such chemical elements as Lead, Fluorine, Cadmium, Mercury, Manganese, Copper, etc. Toxic elements in technological processing with gaseous, solid, and liquid waste enter the environment, forming artificial biogeochemical provinces in cities and industrial complexes. In this regard, the content of many chemical elements in the air, soil, reservoirs, and the organism of animals and plants, which the population uses as food products, increases. At the same time, trace elements are the essential catalysts of metabolic processes and play an important role in the body's adaptation. Metals are an essential structural component of biological macromolecules, ensuring their normal functioning. Although minerals do not have energy value like proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, many enzymatic processes in the body are impossible without their participation. An excess of metal can lead to the development of a pathological process, and an imbalance between essential elements causes severe disturbances in body functions. In most cases, the elemental content of the blood (plasma, serum) is an informative indicator of the state of the animal's organism. The method for determining 17 metals (Aluminum, Stybium, Arsenic, Boron, Cadmium, Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Ferrum, Lead, Manganese, Molybdenum, Selenium, Argentum, Sodium, Zinc, Sodium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Calcium) in biological samples was validated ( blood, serum, urine) by the method of optical emission inductively coupled plasma and determined validation characteristics of the way, namely: limit of detection, the limit of quantification, accuracy, correctness, convergence, reproducibility, selectivity, linearity, working range. This method was found simple, sensitive, practical, and universal, as confirmed by LOD and LOQ data. The way shows good linearity in the range of 1–1000 µg/l, depending on the investigated metal. The way is selective and precise. The obtained validation data meet the requirements of the Eurachem Guidelines.

The article deals with the influence of Globigen® Pig Doser and Globigen® Jump Start products, which contain specific Ig Y, which is characterized by pronounced immunostimulating properties. A comprehensive analysis of the use and influence of these agents on the morphological and biochemical indicators of the blood of young pigs under conditions of intensive technologies under different methods of cultivation in different periods of their growth and development – 30, 60, and 120 days – was carried out. It was set that the use of the proposed means had a prolonged positive effect, which concerning hematological indicators, mainly appeared by an increase in the number of erythrocytes and the concentration of hemoglobin in the blood of experimental groups of animals of both farms of all age periods. It is worth noting that in the farm with single-phase breeding of pigs (FE PE “Glynyany Agro”) under the influence of Globigen®Pig Doser, the number of erythrocytes in the blood of animals was increased and, corresponding to the physiological norm, fluctuated between 7.09 and 7.43 T/l, and the concentration of hemoglobin, having reached the maximum value, in the blood of all experimental groups of animals was 108.62–112.77 g/l. In the farm, which practices three-phase pig breeding (“Meat Resources” Ltd.), under the influence of Globigen® Pig Doser, a pronounced effect has appeared in animals 60 and 120 days old; the number of erythrocytes in their blood was increased to 7.46–7.69 T/l, and under the influence of Globigen® Jump Start, a tendency to a gradual increase in hemoglobin concentration was observed, which stopped at 99.28 g/l in 120-day-old piglets. Evaluating the level of protein metabolism in animals under the influence of Globigen® Pig Doser and Globigen® Jump Start, a tendency to increase the total protein content, compared to the control, in the blood of animals in all age periods in both farms was set. It was noted that under the action of Globigen®Jump Start, the total protein content in the blood of 120-day-old piglets from a farm with single-phase farming (FE PE “Glynyany Agro”) was 76.38 g/l, and in a farm with three-phase farming (Ltd. “Meat resources”) 75.08 g/l. In addition, it was set that the normalization of the ratio of protein fractions, in particular, the use of Globigen® Pig Doser and Globigen® Jump Start, increased the synthesis of albumin and normalized gamma-globulin to the level of the physiological norm. The “Glynyany Agro” FE found a more pronounced effect with single-phase piglet rearing. It was concluded that Globigen® Pig Doser and Globigen® Jump Start positively influence maintaining body homeostasis.

Intensification of the cattle population reproduction is an indispensable condition for the increase in the production of cattle breeding products. However, everyday abnormal effects of various factors on the intensively functioning organism of animals lead to the emergence of pathologies that restrain the rate of increase in the number of cows. Despite a wide range of problems, the results of numerous studies confirm and emphasize that a significant cause of symptomatic infertility in rejected cows is ovarian follicular cysts, accompanied with pathological changes in other organs of the reproductive system. Transrectal and ultrasound examination allows to diagnose pathology, but the issue of changes at the microscopic level in the ovaries and other organs of the reproductive system remains insufficiently studied, which inhibits the development of new methods of restoring the endocrine function of the gonads. In this regard, the morphology and pathology of the ovaries and uterus of cows require further careful study. The research was conducted in the conditions of the agricultural production cooperative “Agrofirma Semenivska”, Sumy region, on Holstein cows of different ages and productivity. At the gynecological stage of dispensation, the condition of the internal genital organs of 47 infertile cows, 14 of which were rejected, and 8 diagnosed with ovarian follicular cyst, was examined. In the conditions of the meat processing plant, the uterus and ovaries were dissected from the genitals taken immediately after slaughtering 8 cows. Pieces of tissue measuring 1 x 2 cm were cut from the walls of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries, then fixed in 10 % aqueous formalin solution; histosections were made according to the generally accepted method, being stained with hematoxylin-eosin, and examined by light microscopy. It has been established that on the histopreparations, made from the ovary with a follicular cyst, there is desquamation of individual cells of the covering epithelium, atresia of the obliterating type, which is characterized by dystrophic changes of granulosis with pronounced desquamation of follicular cells filling the cavity of the cystic follicle with the subsequent formation of a fibrous atretic body. While examining histological sections from the uterus, a large number of arterial vessels with thick walls surrounded by connective tissue fibers and groups of endometrial glands of a typical structure, which is typical for endometriosis, have been found in the thickness of the myometrium. The endometrium has turned out to be represented by a cytogenic stroma, the density of the cells of which gradually decreases from the surface to the muscle layer, in the basal layer, the stroma is almost entirely replaced by connective tissue. Behind the follicular cyst of the ovary, traces of mucus have been found in the lumen of the fallopian tube.

The spread of COVID-19, which is difficult to predict, has caused the community to experience shocks both mentally and psychologically which also affects the social relations of the community down to the lowest level. The culture of gathering in Indonesian society that has become a daily routine has stopped and there is no concern about when it will recover. The cracks for the sake of grazing in our society are beginning to be felt. People began to experience panic anxiety so that government recommendations and religious institutions were ignored by some people with logical defects and put forward emotional sentimentality. In that condition, social capital in synergy with local wisdom can be a solution so that social anxiety and fractures do not occur.

The Dayak Maanyan community recognizes two types of languages. The language used daily and the language used in traditional rituals. The language used in the ritual is arranged in the form of paired clauses with similar meanings. This article will examine the meaning relation between words in the paired clauses. The research was conducted in the East Barito district, Central Kalimantan province. This study's data collection area is the East Hamlet District in Jaar Village. Documentation of data in ritual leader utterances is done by transcribing recorded speeches during the ritual and recordings during direct interviews with ritual leaders to obtain the entire content of the ritual speech. Based on the results of data analysis from 840 pairs of transcribed clauses, The researcher found that the relation of synonymous meaning dominated the relation of meaning between the two clauses. The researcher also found the meaning relationship between class inclusion and meronymy and case relation. The pattern of meaning relations formed from the words in the paired clauses is that a is equal to b, b is a type of a, a is a component of b, a is a member of b, place b is part of the area of a, b is made of a, a has b, a is related to b, a is b, a does b, a becomes b, does a is accepted by b, does a uses b, does a aims to b.

Published: November 2022

O Projeto Descritorizando é uma iniciativa para trabalhar os descritores de Língua Portuguesa e Matemática que não foram consolidados no SAEB (Sistema de Avaliação da Educação Básica) na aprendizagem dos estudantes do ensino fundamental I (5º ano). O Projeto Descritorizando foi realizado em uma escola pública de Manaus/AM, situada em um bairro periférico, idealizado após uma análise dos resultados obtidos pela participação dos estudantes no SAEB no triênio de 2007 a 2011. Na análise realizada, verificou-se que os estudantes do 5º ano estavam tendo baixo rendimento na avaliação externa supracitada devido à falta de domínio de leitura/interpretação de texto e noções básicas de matemática. Mediante tal problemática, elaborou-se o seguinte problema: como é possível melhorar o desempenho dos estudantes do 5º ano do ensino fundamental que apresentam falta domínio de leitura/interpretação de texto e noções básicas das operações matemáticas no resultado do SAEB? O presente estudo tem como objetivo geral analisar a contribuição da realização do Projeto Descritorizando para a elevação do rendimento escolar dos discentes do ensino fundamental I (5º ano) com dificuldades em leitura/interpretação de texto e nas noções básicas das operações de matemática. A matriz metodológica configura-se de natureza qualitativa, com foco no tipo de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental. Para análise dos resultados da implementação do Projeto Descritorizando, mensurou-se os resultados do SAEB de 2013 a 2017 e comparou-se com os obtidos no período de 2007 a 2011. O triênio de 2013 a 2017 foi o período em que o projeto foi implementado na escola. Constatou-se que, durante a realização do Projeto Descritorizando na escola, houve uma melhora nos resultados obtidos no SAEB da escola e uma evolução no domínio da leitura/interpretação e noções básicas de matemática dos estudantes. Demonstra-se, nas considerações finais, a necessidade de compreender que avaliação do SAEB é um processo e norteador de novas ações pedagógicas nas escolas, visando a melhoria não somente nos índices do SAEB mas também na oferta da aprendizagem significativa para os discentes. Tendo em vista que tanto as avaliações internas quanto as externas precisam assumir caráter formativo.

One of the implementations of Pancasila democracy in Indonesia is the implementation of the election of leaders, by voting. In addition to within the scope of government, the implementation can also be carried out within the scope of educational institutions such as schools or campuses, where voters are referred to as novice voters. Elections are still carried out conventionally which requires a large nominal budget, as well as problems or fraud that often occur during elections. So in this study, a digital voting system was created using an electronic device, namely an Android-based mobile e-voting system that can be accessed via a smartphone. the existence of this system is considered to be able to provide convenience and comfort in the implementation of the voting process and provide an important role to the generation of novice voters who are now entering the digital era where technology is developing rapidly, namely to continue to cultivate democratic values in it. Based on the data obtained, smartphone users now have a percentage value of 66.31% among the public and 33.69% of people do not own a smartphone. While the survey results related to the operating system market pairs in Indonesia, accounting for 91.56% of Android users, show that the majority of smartphone users in Indonesia use Android, with this the e-voting system has the potential to be used by the general public, especially novice voters. For this reason, this e-voting system aims to provide convenience and comfort in the implementation of the election process.
Staging Shakespeare in Social Games: Towards a Theory of Theatrical Game Design
Authors: Roberts-Smith Jennifer , DeSouza-Coelho Shawn , Malone Toby
Published: November 2022

This essay discusses the theoretical implications of a recent experiment with game-based social media to increase Shakespeare literacy in eleven to fifteen-year-olds. In collaboration with the Stratford Festival, we aimed to make the gameplay of our pilot, Staging Shakespeare, and the social space it generated, experientially theatrical in some way. While the pilot itself was not, in our view, successful, the design process helped us articulate a theory of theatricality grounded in the ontological complexity of theatrical things and the ontogenetic conditions of theatrical environments. Our conclusion is that literal simulations of Shakespeare's plays or of Shakespearean theater production may not be the richest way to teach Shakespeare through social games. Instead, we may need a design theory grounded in the adaptation of theatrical principles to electronic media, and perhaps a new aesthetic and even a rhetoric of gameplay only associatively related to Shakespeare.
