ANTIBACTERIAL EFFICACY OF Anopheles gambiae (MOSQUITOES) EXTRACTS ON SOME BACTERIA CAUSING THROAT INFECTIONS
Authors: Kasim Lateef , Oladunmoye Muftau Kolawole
Published: February 2022

Introduction: Respiratory tract infection refers to any infectious disease involving the respiratory tract. In low-income and middle-income countries, respiratory tract infection is considered as one of the major public health problems. It can lead to severe mortality and morbidity in children as well as adults. Over the years there has been a development of resistance to antibiotics used for the treatment of throat infections which has led to the search for alternative therapy. Insects can be potentially useful as an alternative therapy because of the diverse bioactive compounds they possess.
Objective: This research investigated the antibacterial activity of the extract of Anopheles gambiae against bacterial isolates associated with throat infection.
Methods: The insects were bred in microbiology laboratory and identified in the Department of Biology, Federal University of Technology, Akure. The mosquitoes were collect and immobilized in the freezer at -4oC. The extracts were prepared by mecrating the mosquitoes into 30% Dimethlsulfoxide (DMSO) for its homogenization.  Extracts were then tested against bacterial isolates in-vitro using agar well diffusion method. Results: Extracts were tested against bacterial isolates using agar well diffusion method which showed activity against S. pyogenes (22.00 ± 0.58b mm), S. aureus (19.67 ± 1.20mm) and K. pneumoniae (24 ± 1.15mm), while it showed no activity against E. coli and S. pneumoniae. Conclusion: A. gambiae extract may be considered as an alternative in medicine to combat the issue of increasing multidrug resistance to conventional antibiotics, the side effects of these antibiotics and high cost of synthetic drugs production. The most prevalent compound was n-hexadecenoic with retention time of 20.997, which was reported to exhibit antioxidant and antimicrobial activity.
Implementing High Frequency Trading Regulation: A Critical Analysis of Current Reforms
Authors: Morelli Michael
Published: February 2022

Technological developments in securities markets, most notably high frequency trading, have fundamentally changed the structure and nature of trading over the past fifty years. Policymakers, both domestically and abroad, now face many new challenges influencing the secondary market’s effectiveness as a generator of economic growth and stability. Faced with these rapid structural changes, many are quick to denounce high frequency trading as opportunistic and parasitic. This article, however, instead argues that while high frequency trading presents certain general risks to secondary market efficiency, liquidity, stability, and integrity, the practice encompasses a wide variety of strategies, many of which can enhance, not inhibit, the secondary trading market’s core goals.

This article proposes a regulatory model aimed at maximizing high frequency trading’s beneficial effects on secondary market functions. The model’s foundation, however, requires information. By analyzing more data on how high frequency traders interact with markets, regulators can assess the viability and scope of other potentially worthwhile measures targeting more general market threats. Likewise, regulators can determine who is in the best position to bear supervisory responsibility for particular trading activities: agencies, exchanges, traders, or some combination thereof. Crucially, the model also calls on regulators to share information on a global scale: trading no longer only affects a single exchange, a single asset class, or even a single country. By sharing information, regulators can enact more informed regulations, stabilize secondary markets, and minimize regulatory arbitrage. In short, high frequency trading can be a force for good, but a principled and coordinated effort is needed to ensure it fulfills that potential.
Trump's "Big-League" Tax Reform: Assessing the Impact of Corporate Tax Changes
Authors: Clements Ryan
Published: February 2022

This Article reviews and assesses corporate tax reforms advocated by President Donald Trump during his presidential campaign and signed into law since taking office (the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017), in light of economic theory and the Modigliani-Miller Irrelevance Theorem. The Article argues that companies will adapt policies in light of new taxation measures, thereby impacting the effectiveness of reform. In support of this conclusion, the Article surveys two empirical studies—one in relation to the repatriation efforts of President Bush’s Homeland Investment Act and another in relation to unexpected changes to the taxation of Canadian income trusts—to highlight how reform measures can lead to unanticipated results. The Article then applies the principles of these studies, the general economic theories, and the Modigliani-Miller Irrelevance Theorem to cast uncertainty on the net effect of Trump’s tax reforms. Next, the Article reviews the constitutionality of a “border adjustment tax.” This tax was proposed during the election campaign, but was ultimately jettisoned in the final tax reform bill. Specifically, it analyzes whether such a policy is constitutional or whether it is an unconstitutional direct tax, not apportioned between the States that does not qualify as income under the Sixteenth Amendment. The Article shows that such a constitutional challenge is a difficult undertaking given the substantive arguments in favor of constitutionality, the rarity of judicial intervention in overturning tax laws, and the wide discretion of Congress to levy taxes on income. Finally, the Article concludes by considering the role of economic analysis on constitutional challenges to tax legislation and provides an overview of the arguments, both for and against, utilizing economic analysis in this regard. The conclusion includes a review of the various cases and defining principles (emphasizing the decisions of Judge Richard Posner) where economic analysis has been used in the statutory interpretation of tax laws.
COMPOSITION AND SENSORY ASSESSMENT OF PIZZA MADE FROM WHEAT (TRITICUM AESTIVUM), YELLOW MAIZE (ZEA MAYS), AND COWPEA (VIGNA UNGUICULATA) FLOUR
Authors: Mary Adusei  , Nanice Fosu  , Veronica Akwaah
Published: February 2022

The purpose of the study was to determine the proximate composition and acceptability of prepared pizza made with wheat, maize, and cowpea flour blends. Five types of pizza were made with wheat flour, maize flour, and cowpea flour as the main ingredients. The proximate and sensory properties of pizza samples were made with varied formulas, such as 100:0:0, 90:6:4, 80:13:7, 70:18:12, and 60:25:15%. As a control, a pizza made entirely of wheat flour was used. The protein content of wheat and composite flour pizza samples ranged from 12.14 to 12.92%, moisture from 12.59 to 12.82%, ash from 1.56-2.31%, crude fat from 1.22-1.48%, crude fiber from 0.77 to 0.43%, and carbohydrate from 53.2 to 53.44%. The protein content of the pizza samples varied greatly (P<0.05), with pizza made from 60% wheat flour, 25% maize flour, and 15% cowpea flour having the highest protein content and pizza made from wheat flour having the lowest protein content. A panel of twenty panelists was used to assess the sensory qualities such as colour, taste, texture, aroma, and overall acceptability of pizza samples using a 5-point structured hedonic scale. The pizza sample made with 80% wheat flour, 13% maize flour, and 7% cowpea flour received higher ratings than the control sample, but all of the pizza samples associated well with the control in all of the criteria examined. It was found that up to 13% and 7% yellow maize and cowpea can be included in wheat in pastry and dough preparations without affecting the nutritional composition or sensory qualities.
KEYWORDS: Pizza, Yellow corn, cowpea, local materials, dough, flour cookery, nutritional profile.

Published: February 2022

The introduction of fiscal policy transparency practices in the contemporary local financial management system is one of the prerequisites for increasing the socio-economic development of regions. Creating a transparent budget environment contributes to a faster and more effective solution to the region’s current problems. The lack of a sufficient level of budgetary transparency is a consequence of poor public interest consideration, which impedes the realization of their own democratic aspirations and freedoms. This article is aimed to look through the importance of budget transparency and its good effects on the budgetary system. The public finance transparency assessment of Uzbekistan has shown that its population needs a higher level of information disclosure, use of the latest information channels, and the creation of convenient forms of involvement in the budget process. The transparency evaluation results in the areas of budgeting, public procurement, disposal of property of the territorial community, etc. have been investigated. Besides, directions for improving Uzbekistan’s local authorities information policy are proposed to increase its transparency.
KEYWORDS: Budget system, budget transparency, local budget, local budget indicators, fiscal policy, budgetary system, open budget system.

Tarbela Dam is one of the world largest filled dams with a capacity of 13.69 km³. It is the backbone of Pakistan, and it is used for both power generation and irrigation. Like all dam reservoirs, sedimentation decreases the life of the Tarbela dam reservoir and affects the power generating unit and tunnel equipment’s and instruments. The Finite Volume Method was used to conduct a CFD analysis to investigate different parameters that influence sedimentation. The analysis was carried out using multiphase flow (air and water) considering the summer season for maximum reservoir inflow and discharge water through spillways and tunnels. Boundary conditions were applied to a 3D geometric model that had been meshed. The spillway outlet was found to have the highest velocity. Near the spillways outlet and tunnel inlets, strong vortex motion was observed. WAPDA were suggested to redesign tunnels 3 and 4 in order to reduce sediment inflow, as well as to improve the design of the spillways.

ORGANIZATION AND RULES FUNCTIONING OF THE COMMUNAL GUARD ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE CITY GUARD OF THE CITY OF LUBLIN
Authors: GULIŃSKA Emilia
Published: February 2022

Celem artykułu jest diagnoza sposobu organizacji i zasad funkcjonowania straży gminnej na przykładzie Miasta Lublin. Przedstawiono aktualne rozwiązania uregulowane w polskim systemie prawnym. Scharakteryzowano pojęcie bezpieczeństwa publicznego i porządku publicznego. Przeprowadzona analiza wskazuje, że pojęcia bezpieczeństwa publicznego i porządku publicznego w doktrynie traktowane są jako pojęcia tożsame. W związku z tym dobrą zmianą w polskim ustawodawstwie byłoby stworzenie definicji legalnych tych pojęć, tak aby kryteria rozróżniające te pojęcia były czytelne i jednoznaczne, gdyż aktualnie bardzo trudno jest wskazać granice, gdzie kończy się bezpieczeństwo, a zaczyna się porządek publiczny. Kolejną dobrą zmianą w polskim ustawodawstwie byłby obligatoryjny charakter utworzenia straży gminnych, których działania wspomagały działalność komisariatów Policji. W pracy wykorzystana została metoda dogmatyczno – prawna oraz metoda funkcjonalizmu prawniczego.

TESTIS UNUS TESTIS NULLUS - A CLAIM ABOUT THE RELIABILITY OF THE STATEMENTS OF A SINGLE EYE WITNESS IN CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS
Authors: WAWRZENIUK Adrian
Published: February 2022

Zgodnie z art. 7 Kodeksu postępowania karnego, organy postępowania kształtują swoje przekonanie na podstawie wszystkich przeprowadzonych dowodów, ocenianych swobodnie z uwzględnieniem zasad prawidłowego rozumowania oraz wskazań wiedzy i doświadczenia życiowego. Polski proces karny dopuszcza zastosowanie powyższego artykułu do wydania wyroku skazującego w oparciu o zeznania jedynego w sprawie świadka, co prowadzić może do nadużyć, tak ze strony organów postępowania, jak i samych świadków. Co istotne, składanie fałszywych zeznań nie musi być efektem umyślnego działania. Nieumyślne złożenie fałszywych zeznań nie wiąże się z odpowiedzialnością karną, a niewykryte – stanowić może poważne zagrożenie dla osoby, której zeznania dotyczą. Autor w artykule skupia się na aspekcie nieumyślnego złożenia fałszywych zeznań przez potencjalnych świadków zdarzenia. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest zobrazowanie zagrożeń, jakie niesie za sobą niestosowanie przez organy postępowania oraz organy władzy sądowniczej w Polsce, nieobowiązującej w polskiej procedurze karnej, rzymskiej zasady testis unus testis nullus (jeden świadek, żaden świadek), przy równoczesnym stosowaniu zasady swobodnej oceny dowodów oraz zasadniczym braku penalizacji czynu nieumyślnego złożenia fałszywych zeznań. W artykule skoncentrowano się na przedstawieniu wyników badań przeprowadzonych w formie ankiety, wśród grona 50 anonimowych ochotników, a związanych z potencjalnym uczestnictwem w zdarzeniach, w których zeznania świadków mogą mieć kluczowe znaczenie dla rozstrzygnięcia odpowiedzialności czy ustalenia przebiegu zdarzeń. Wyniki badań, w zestawieniu z przytoczoną literaturą, pozwalają, w opinii autora, wywołać przekonanie o wiarygodności zeznań jedynego świadka naocznego oraz ich przydatności w postępowaniu karnym. W przekonaniu autora, nieumyślne złożenie fałszywych zeznań winno podlegać penalizacji na równi z umyślnym złożeniem fałszywych zeznań. Z kolei dopuszczenie dowodu z zeznań jedynego w sprawie karnej świadka, winno być obłożone większym rygorem, aniżeli zasada swobodnej oceny dowodów, co z kolei podważałoby fundamentalne zasady stosowania instytucji świadka koronnego czy tzw. małego świadka koronnego i wymagałoby reformy systemu prawa karnego.

Sanitasi dasar merupakan sarana dan prasarana minimal yang harus dimiliki oleh setiap hunian. Fasilitas-fasilitas yang termasuk dalam sanitasi dasar meliputi penyediaan air bersih, pembuangan air limbah, saluran drainase, dan pengelolaan sampah. Buruknya kualitas sanitasi dasar dapat menyebabkan kekumuhan di suatu permukiman. Sayangnya, fenomena tersebut terlihat pada beberapa permukiman pesisir di Kepulauan Riau yang notabene memiliki potensi sebagai desitinasi wisata budaya. Oleh karena itu, penelitian kualitatif ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis ketersediaan dan kondisi sanitasi dasar di Kampung Datuk, Pulau Penyengat, Kota Tanjung Pinang, Kepulauan Riau. Observasi lapangan dilakukan untuk memperoleh data primer. Hasil penelitian mengungkapkan bahwa warga kampung ini masih menyalurkan air limbah dan drainase langsung ke laut. Meski dianggap belum memenuhi standar sanitasi dasar yang baik secara menyeluruh, permukiman pesisir Kampung Datuk di Pulau Penyengat telah cukup sadar untuk mengelola sampah dengan baik dan juga telah tersedia sarana air bersih yang cukup untuk memenuhi kebutuhan warga sehari-hari. Oleh karena itu, penulis memberikan beberapa rekomendasi dalam penelitian ini, khususnya yang berkaitan dengan sistem pembuangan air limbah dan saluran drainase di permukiman tersebut.

Auxílio Direto: Uma Cooperação Internacional no Combate à Lavagem de Ativos e os Crimes que a Antecedem
Authors: Franco de Lima Letícia Gabriela Camargo , Maciel-Lima Sandra
Published: February 2022

Contextualização: O processo penal precisa se adaptar ao mundo globalizado e aperfeiçoar as técnicas investigativas, sob pena de se tornar inoperante com relação à macrocriminalidade representada por crimes que geram consequências globais e se concretizam muitas vezes a partir da utilização do sistema financeiro de diversos países. Objetivo: O objetivo do artigo é analisar o auxílio direto, procedimento investigativo que propicia o diálogo, auxílio e compartilhamento de provas transnacional, previsto no Código de Processo Civil de 2015. Pretende-se verificar a necessidade de cooperação interna entre órgãos fiscalizatórios, poder judiciário e empresas privadas por mecanismos de compliance para efetividade punitiva. Método: O presente artigo utiliza a abordagem qualitativa; quanto ao procedimento técnico, utiliza a pesquisa bibliográfica, mediante revisão de artigos científicos realizados sobre o tema no Google Scholar, no período de 2018 à 2020, com os descritores “persecução penal”, “cooperação internacional” e “crimes financeiros; assim como, revisão da legislação relacionada ao tema. Resultados: As pesquisas realizadas contribuíram na verificação de que a solução para o melhor desenvolvimento investigatório e sancionador da macrocriminalidade econômica é isolar países não cooperantes buscando em última medida a proibição de relacionamento financeiro com os demais Estados, medidas que já vem sendo orientadas por organismos intergovernamentais. Conclusões: Observou-se que os órgãos fiscalizatórios e os procedimentos adotados caminham em direção ao compartilhamento de provas e auxílio internacional expandindo o alcance da investigação, porém ainda existem paraísos fiscais que impedem o aperfeiçoamento do sistema punitivo.

Published: February 2022

President Obama's 2011 Executive Order 13583 was expected to serve as a catalyst for a coordinated government-wide initiative to promote diversity and inclusion in the federal workforce. This order reinforced the government's commitment to equal employment opportunity by “using the talents of all segments of society,” achieved by recruiting, hiring, promoting, and retaining a more diverse workforce. The order mandated the creation of a government-wide diversity and inclusion strategic plan as well as agency-specific plans. This study uses institutional theory as a lens to examine agency response to EO 13583 to articulate diversity and inclusion rationales, practices, and correlating workforce demographic trends. We examine how three federal agencies articulated diversity and inclusion practices and activities in the plans. We explore demographic workforce trends prior to, during, and after adoption of the agency diversity and inclusion plans. Together, these analyses offer evidence of varied approaches to diversity and inclusion as well as uneven progress in pursuing the letter and spirit of the order. Specifically, the articulation of agency-specific diversity goals following Executive Order 13583 does not consistently translate to enhanced workforce diversity.

В работе представлен анализ промысловых материалов по отклонениям от проектных траекторий стволов при проводке наклонно-направленных, горизонтальных скважин (ГС) и скважин по зарезкебоковых стволов с горизонтальным окончанием (ЗБГС) по рассмотренным месторождениям. Результаты показывают на наличие большого количества скважин завершенных бурением с отклонениями от проектного профиля. Приведены факты о не корректном заполнении фактических инклинометрических замеров, а также из-за неясностей в заполненных данных о замерах, профили скважин в ПО «Petrel» загружались без учета поправки направления (П Н), которые привели к смещению забоев многих скважин в моделях по отношению к заданным. Для предотвращения указанных случаев в заключении работы даны соответствующие рекомендации.

Нефтяная компания, разрабатывающая месторождение, в первую очередь должна поставить перед собой задачи по проектированию и внедрению разработки системы поддержания пластового давления. В любой нефтяной компании основными задачами являются количество добываемой нефти и минимальная стоимость ее добычи, но не следует забывать о таком понятии, как коэффициент извлечения нефти. Актуальность работы заключается в поддержании пластового давления закачкой воды, что обеспечивает высокую нефтеотдачу. В результате проведения анализа была изучена система поддержания пластового давления.

Бүгінгі таңда мұнай компаниялары қорларының жартысынан көбі рентабельділік шегінде ұңғымалардың төмен дебиттерінің диапазонында тұр. Егер 10 жыл бұрын ұңғымалардың дебиттері бар қорларды игеруге тартылған үлесі тәулігіне 25 т-дан кем 55% -ды құраса, бүгінде мұндай үлесті тәулігіне 10 т-ға дейінгі дебиттері бар қорлар құрайды.

Objective

Early prognosis of sepsis, which affects millions of people all over the world every year and can have a mortality of more than 25%, is very important especially for emergency services where patients spend their most critical golden hours. Lactate and lactate clearance are also potential marker candidates that can be used to predict mortality, which has now started to take place in sepsis guidelines. The aim of this study is to investigate the power of lactate and lactate clearance to predict mortality in sepsis.

Material and Method

All patients over the age of 18 with a diagnosis of severe sepsis and septic shock who presented to the emergency department during a one-year period were included in this prospective observational cohort study. The lactate clearance was calculated by taking the blood gases of the patients at the time of admission and six hours later, and evaluated in terms of predicting mortality along with other parameters.

Results

The decrease in lactate values at the sixth hour of 90 patients included in the study was found to be statistically significant (p=0.001). A positive and significant correlation was found between the lactate values of the patients at admission and mortality (p=0.046). A negative significant correlation was found between lactate clearance of the patients and mortality (p=0.001).

Conclusion

In patients with sepsis, the lactate value is important in determining mortality and prognosis. Regardless of arrival lactate value, the high rate of lactate reduction at the sixth hour indicates a good prognosis. In addition, it was determined that the sixth hour lactate value also had an effect on predicting mortality. When all these results are taken into consideration, it can be said that the lactate value and lactate clearance are useful predictors of prognosis in sepsis patients admitted to the emergency department. However, they are not sufficient on their own to determine the prognosis and should be used together with other markers and clinical evaluation.

Customers’ preferences for prefabricated building or conventional cast-in-situ building directly affect the decision-making process for strategic selection of building developers. This study utilizes a Hotelling model integrating game theory, including the market share function, product price function, and profit function of duopoly building developers to contribute a new approach to assist decision makers in their selection of developers for their projects. By analyzing different strategy combinations and the income matrix, we obtained the strategy combinations of duopoly building developers and the income matrix strategies, market share, optimal price and maximum profit. Managerial implications were discussed for government and building developers. Finally, we presented the research contribution as well as future research direction.

To explore the law of megaproject social responsibility behavior (MSRB) among internal organizations under institutional pressure, this paper presents a theoretical and empirical study to investigate how institutional pressure affects MSRB through the mediating role of organizational social responsibility cognition and the mediating roles of the communication mechanism and relationship strength based on new institutional sociology. Based on a total of 147 responses from a broad questionnaire survey, structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to test the proposed hypotheses. The research results show that institutional pressure has a promoting effect on MSRB, and organizational social responsibility cognition mediates the relationship between institutional pressure and MSRB. Additionally, the communication mechanism and relationship strength have no effect on the relationship between institutional pressures and MSRB. The research results provide a new theoretical foundation for the analysis of MSRB and practical suggestions for policymakers on the governance of MSRB.

Understanding the preferences of transient types for host galaxies with certain characteristics is key to studies of transient physics and galaxy evolution, as well as to transient identification and classification in the LSST era. Here we describe a value-added database of extragalactic transients—supernovae, tidal disruption events, gamma-ray bursts, and other rare events—and their host galaxy properties. Based on reported coordinates, redshifts, and host galaxies (if known) of events, we cross-identify their host galaxies or most likely host candidates in various value-added or survey catalogs, and compile the existing photometric, spectroscopic, and derived physical properties of the host galaxies in these catalogs. This new database covers photometric measurements from the far-ultraviolet to mid-infrared. Spectroscopic measurements and derived physical properties are also available for a smaller subset of hosts. For our 36,333 unique events, we have cross-identified 13,753 host galaxies using host names, plus 4480 using host coordinates. Besides those with known hosts, there are 18,100 transients with newly identified host candidates. This large database will allow explorations of the connections of transients to their hosts, including a path toward transient alert filtering and probabilistic classification based on host properties.
