Textual Criticism of Ostrovsky’s Translations from Latin. Part 2. Plautus’ The Asses and Issues of the Text Source
Authors: Markov Alexander V.
Published: July 2022

The article continues the investigation of textological issues associated with the surviving draft translation of the comoedia palliata The Asses (Asinaria) by Plautus, made by A. N. Ostrovsky from Latin. For the translation of Plautus’ Asinaria, the edition remains a problem: arguments are offered both for and against Levée (1820) as the basic source. The article reconstructs in detail the biographical and creative context of this translation, which was supposed to be a contribution to the formation of a democratic theater. The author of the article argues that although we cannot say for sure that Levée was the main or the only source of the translation, a lot in the Russian text says about Ostrovsky’s highly likely intentional repulsion of the Levée’s conception of Roman drama. In Levée’s edition, the French parallel translation and rare commentaries should have made Plautus one of the Latin classics, while Ostrovsky emphasizes the non-classical and lowbrow moments in Plautus. This explains both the decisions in the preparation of the manuscript and a number of accents that he deliberately made in this alleged rejection of the French translation, as well as the refusal to rely on the French translation even in difficult cases and work only with the Latin original, despite the inevitable translation errors.
“On the Beaten Path of Russian Tourists”: Representation of the Germany Space in “Parisian Letters with Notes About Denmark, Germany, Holland and Belgium” by N. I. Gretsch
Authors: Zhdanov Sergey S.
Published: July 2022

The paper deals with German spatial images represented in the travelogue “Parisian Letters with Notes about Denmark, Germany, Holland and Belgium” by N. I. Gretsch in connection with the tradition of describing Germany in Russian literature of the 19th century. Several types of spaces are determined in the text by Gretsch. One of them is formed by deminatural and home idyllic loci for which the motives of orderliness, coziness, cleanness, lightness, domesticity, plentifulness, visual appeal are typical. There is a connection of this spatial kind with the sentimental world-image of Germany in Russian literature represented in its ‘wasted’ variant having no expression. Urban German loci are also marked with the motif of orderliness connected with the space not of the idyll but of the modern rational civilization. Prussia is determined as the main center of ordering the German space and contrasted with several conflicted liminal places bordering France and Denmark. Describing regulated non-idyllic, liminal as well as historical loci of Germany tends to the neutral factual world-image. Finally, there are some elements of the travestycomical German narrative mode in the text by Gretsch, they basically deal with representing the German philistine space.

Politicization, Foreign Policy and Nuclear Diplomacy
Authors: Guimarães Victoria Viana Souza , Silva Lucas Peixoto Pinheiro da
Published: July 2022

According to the current literature, since the redemocratization, Brazilian foreign policy has been marked by a process of politicization. This article’s main objective is to verify the relation between administrative shifts and Brazilian nuclear diplomacy. Accordingly, the question dealt with in the article is: since Brazil joined the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), have administration variations interfered with the formulation ofBrazilian nuclear diplomacy? This article argues that Brazilian nuclear diplomacy has been an exception to this trend. No matter how innovative some administrations have been in foreign policy, nuclear diplomacy has been insulated from governmental changes, havingconsolidated a coherent and stable rhetoric internationally. The research was carried out by analyzing the Brazilian rhetoric between 1998 and 2019 in the NPT Review Conferences and Preparatory Committees, vis-à-vis different administrations, through the method of substantive content analysis. The result was the verification that the majority of the rhetorical issues used were present in all studied administrations, indicating the absence of correlation between administration shifts and the Brazilian stance in the Global Nonproliferation Regime.

Published: July 2022

Aynı coğrafyayı paylaşan, ortak kaygı ve değerler etrafında birleşen toplumların kendi tarihleri içinde sahip oldukları soyut ve somut değerlerini koruyarak gelecek nesillere aktarma çabası müze kavramının ortaya çıkmasında etkili olmuştur. Bu kurumlar, ferdin bilgilendirilmesi ve bilinçlendirilmesini sağlayarak daha yapıcı ve korumacı bir anlayışın gelişmesinin yanı sıra toplumsal hafızayı da canlı tutacaktır. Bugün, Anadolu coğrafyasında ait kültür varlıklarının korunduğu ve sergilendiği ulusal müzelerin dışında, köy müzeleri de yaygınlaşmaya başlamıştır. Bu mekânlar, köyden kente göçün hızlanması, gelişen teknoloji ile birlikte köylerdeki gelenekli yaşam ile üretim şekillerinin değişmesi neticesinde hızla yok olan kültür ürünlerinin korunmasını, tanıtılmasını ve gelecek nesillere aktarılmasını amaçlamaktadır. Benzer kaygılardan yola çıkılarak, Artvin Yaşam Eğitim ve Kültür Derneği (Ayek-Der), İçişleri Bakanlığı Dernekler Dairesi Başkanlığı, Şavşat Kaymakamlığı, Tepeköy Muhtarlığı, Artvin dışında bulunan Tepeköy Dernekleri ve Tepeköy halkının desteği ile yürütülen çalışmalar neticesinde 2015 yılında “Tepeköy Geleneksel Yaşam Kültürü Müzesi”nin açılışı yapılmıştır. Müzede, köy halkı tarafından bağışlanan eserler arasında, çoğunluğu yerel ustalar tarafından gelenekli usuller ile üretilmiş, hammaddesi ahşap, maden, hasır ve pişmiş toprak eşyanın yanı sıra, düz dokuma yaygı, çorap ile gelenekli giyim-kuşam örnekleri sergilenmektedir. Günümüzde birçoğunun kullanım alanını yitirdiği ancak bir zamanlar günlük yaşantının her aşamasında ihtiyaç duyulan bu eserler ve müzenin tanıtımı makalenin konusunu oluşturmaktadır.
Avances en la institucionalidad e instrumentos para la construcción de la cadena productiva de la guadua
Authors: Montealegre William Ignacio , Méndez Pedroza Nelly María
Published: July 2022

El Senado de la República de Colombia desde 2018 debate el Proyecto de Ley 68 de 2018, “Por medio de la cual se incentiva el uso productivo de la guadua y el bambú, y su sostenibilidad ambiental en el territorio nacional”, que cambia la normatividad actual, especialmente en su clasificación y trámites para su aprove-chamiento. Este nace de la necesidad de industrializar los múltiples usos de la guadua, con un enfoque extractivista del recurso natural renovable guadua, existente en las riveras de ríos y quebradas del país, pues son los únicos guaduales que requieren permisos o autorizaciones para su aprovechamiento y movilización. Sin embargo, el proyecto de ley adolece del análisis normativo respecto a las plantaciones forestales, que incluyen la guadua, que se registran y normatizan por el Ministerio de Agricultura. El esfuerzo del Congreso recae en su intento por definir la especie forestal no maderable guadua como una especie agrícola, como el arroz, el café o la caña, que al fin y al cabo no requiere de permisos o autorizaciones para su aprovechamiento. El tercer artículo es el del debate. Del resto del articulado, muchos de ellos hacen parte de la normatividad colombiana. Quedan muchas dudas sobre la legalidad de ley orgánica o reforma constitucional y su trámite en el Congreso de la República, como la necesidad o no de la audiencia previa con las comunidades indígenas.

Authors: Noriega Ome María de los Ángeles , Valbuena Calderón Oscar Eduardo
Published: July 2022

La expansión del área urbana dentro del municipio de Pitalito, Huila, así como de las actividades económicas a nivel comercial e industrial que esta involucra, genera una continua pérdida de la biodiversidad en la cuenca baja del río Guarapas, disminuyendo así los servicios que de manera natural son ofertados por las diferentes especies que ahí habitan. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo caracterizar los servicios ecosistémicos de la Guadua angustifolia Kunth debido a que son fundamentales para el desarrollo y sostenimiento de esta ecorregión pues incluyen servicios de aprovisionamiento como alimentos y agua, madera; servicios de soporte como formación de suelos y reciclaje de nutrientes; servicios culturales recreativos y espirituales; servicios de regulación como hábitat para polinizadores, retención de sedimentos, regulación hídrica y almacenamiento de carbono. Se presentó la distribución de los rodales de G. angustifolia en la parte baja de la cuenca del río Guarapas de Pitalito, Huila, determinando la oferta de servicios ecosistémicos que ahí se generan, con énfasis en su importancia para la región, obteniendo inventario de su estado actual. Además, se utilizó la metodología de análisis multicriterio (MCA) que tuvo como información base las encuestas realizadas a 25 expertos. Se realizó jerarquización y calificación a cada servicio ecosistémico ofrecido por la G. angustifolia, encontrando un conjunto mínimo que puede ser utilizado para la toma de decisiones sobre los eventos de manejo, conservación y aprovechamiento sostenible de esta especie dentro de la cuenca baja del río Guarapas.

Leadless pacemaker implantation (LPI) has fewer device complications and
reduced chance of infection compared to conventional pacemakers.
Dextrocardia with situs viscerum inversus (DC+SVI) is a rare condition,
which seldom leads to cardiac complications. However, its presence poses
a challenge to operators in cardiac procedures. LPI reports in DC
patients are scarce. We report a case of LPI in a DC+SVI patient,
followed by a brief but comprehensive literature review.
INFLATION AND PRODUCTION COSTS OF SELECTED AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS IN POLAND IN 2022
Authors: Podstawka Marian
Published: July 2022

The aim of the paper is to present measures taken in recent years by state public authorities that affect inflation in Poland. An assessment was made of the growth in prices for purchased agricultural inputs, which was correlated with cost structures, and on this basis an increase in the production costs of basic agricultural products in 2022 was estimated. This projected increase in production costs was then related to estimated income. This made it possible to determine their growth, which would allow the current level of agricultural income to be maintained. The government rescue measures triggered by COVID-19 had three main sources of funding: expenditure of the state budget and the budget of European funds - PLN 23.2 billion, COVID-19 Counteracting Fund - PLN 92.7 billion, and financial shields of the Polish Development Fund - PLN 63.5 billion, While the government's intervention activities, under the conditions of the crisis, should be assessed positively, their methods of implementation should be assessed critically. Financial support under the shields was given to companies that showed a decline in turnover caused by the coronavirus pandemic. As a result, those companies that may have deliberately created the conditions to receive support were supported. In all analyzed types of agricultural crop production activities in 2022, there will be an increase in the cost of their production by about 50-60%. The exception will be the production of rye, where the cost increase will be even higher.
Withholding Taxes, Compliance Cost, and Foreign Portfolio Investment
Authors: Jacob Martin , Todtenhaupt Maximilian
Published: July 2022

We examine the effect of compliance frictions in reclaiming foreign withholding tax overpayments on foreign portfolio investment (FPI) using data on bilateral FPI around the globe and U.S. institutional investors’ foreign holdings. Exploiting variation in withholding tax overpayments for 36 investor countries and 110 issuer countries, we find that withholding tax overpayments adversely affect FPI because of the high compliance costs to international investors in claiming foreign tax credits. Cross-sectional tests further show that the adverse effect of withholding tax overpayments on FPI is reduced when compliance costs in claiming these overpayments from foreign countries are lower. Our results indicate that eliminating most of the compliance costs in the reclaim process by implementing a relief at the source mechanism could increase FPI by about 7.6 percent.

The Charcot Foot Reflects a Response to Injury That Is Critically Distorted by Preexisting Nerve Damage: An Imperfect Storm
Authors: Jeffcoate William , Game Fran
Published: July 2022

It has been recognized since comprehensive descriptions by Jean-Martin Charcot in 1868 and 1883 that development of what is usually known as neuropathic osteoarthropathy (or the Charcot foot) requires the coincidence of neuropathy and inflammation. Despite this, detailed understanding of the causes has remained remarkably limited in the succeeding century and a half. The aim of this descriptive account is to draw particular attention to the processes involved in both the onset and resolution of the inflammation that is an essential component of active disease. The principal observation is that while neuropathy is common in people with diabetes, the inflammation and secondary skeletal damage that characterize neuropathic osteoarthropathy are observed in only a small minority of people with diabetes and with neuropathy. We therefore argue that the key to understanding the causes of the Charcot foot is to focus equally on those who have active disease as well as those who do not. Although neuropathy is essential for development of the disorder, neuropathy also has an adverse impact on the mechanisms involved in the onset of inflammation, and these may be critically affected in the majority of those who are susceptible. The Charcot foot is uncommon in people with diabetes (or any other cause of neuropathy) because the large majority of those with neuropathy may have also lost the capacity to mount the specific inflammatory reaction that is essential for its development.

Hope is one of the dimensions of character strength needed in individual personal development. Various instruments continue to be developed to measure a particular hope. The hope scale instrument must be adapted to each culture and country. However, in Indonesia, there has been no research on the development and validation of the hope scale. This study aimed to develop and validate the Indonesian Hope Scale (IHS) using Rasch's model analysis. Participants in this study are 323 students (99 male and 224 female) aged 13-25 years. This study consisted of junior high school students, senior high school students, college students, and postgraduate students. The results showed that Cronbach's Alpha was in the excellent category with a value is 0.82. The item reliability value is 0.99, and the person reliability value is 0.82. The results of Rasch's analysis show that the psychometric characteristics of the 20 items from the Indonesia Hope Scale can meet the requirements and can be used to measure expectations by professionals.
The impact of expressive flexibility and self-control on moral competence following exposure to simulated combat-like environments in 18-22-year-old U.S. Military Recruits
Authors: Georgoulas-Sherry Vasiliki
Published: July 2022

The impact on moral competence following exposure to combat-like environments can be found in soldier narratives, however, limited scientific research investigates such effects. Moreover, the influence of one’s expressive flexibility and self-control on moral competence following combat-like environments is unknown. Employing a univariate design, this study recruited 107 participants (i.e., ages 18 to 22) from a private U.S. Military university to examine the impact on moral competence, including potential moderating effects of expressive flexibility and self-control, following exposure to combat-like environments. To simulate a combat-like environments, participants were placed in either immersive (i.e., Bravemind) or non-immersive (i.e., Virtual Battlespace 3) virtual environments. Self-reported expressive flexibility, self-control, and moral competence were assessed. Results revealed that following exposure to combat-like environments, an individual’s moral competence increased. A main effect of self-control on moral competence indicated that an individual’s self-control directly effects an individual’s moral competence. Findings from this study offers a richer comprehension of how, following simulated combat environments, moral competence can be influenced, and how expressive flexibility and self-control can aid in protecting mental health and wellbeing, even in judging moral dilemmas.
ROLE OF ACC DEAMINASE PRODUCING PLANT GROWTH PROMOTING RHIZOBACTERIA IN AMELIORATING THE SALINITY STRESS CONDITIONS: A REVIEW
Authors: Gupta Anmol , Singh Kratika , Charles Mark , Pathak Neelam
Published: July 2022

Salinity in agricultural soil is a severe problem that affects the growth and production in numerous crops all over the world. The country's salt‒affected land is estimated to be 6.74 million hectares. According to estimates, approximately 10% more land is becoming salinized each year, and by 2050, nearly half of all arable land will be contaminated by salt. Plants may have bacterial companions that shield them from the negative consequences of salt stress (SS). Plant growth‒promoting bacteria (PGPR) can minimize the usage of agrochemicals while also improving plant production, nutrition, and biotic–abiotic stress tolerance. The enzyme 1‒ aminocyclopropane‒1‒carboxylic acid deaminase (ACCD) is found in certain bacteria and works by degradingACC (ethylene precursor in higher plants) into α‒ketobutyrate and ammonia (NH3), thereby reducing the ACC levels, thus, inhibits excessive biosynthesis of ethylene under numerous stress circumstances. This is one of the most effective methods for inducing plant tolerance to SS. The current review highlighted the recent works of ACCD under SS environment. Further, the relevance of reducing the negative effect of ROS and increasing plant development under SS were also discussed.We propose a path for the community to employ beneficial microorganisms to boost agricultural yield and achieve sustainable developmentby highlightingplant‒microbeinteractionsin this review.

Published: July 2022

Parathyroid adenoma is a rare tumour and are generally small size (< 2 cm) and <1gm weight. Giant adenomas are infrequent, are mostly elucidated as > 3.5 gm weight, along with few reports weights up to 110 gm. Parathyroid adenoma are usually found with primary hyperparathyroidism syndrome which is common, seen as third most common endocrine disorder. In this study a case of 52-year-old lady was refereed with complain of neck swelling, lethargy and generalized drowsiness. The results obtained from laboratory revealed increased serum calcium and increased parathyroid hormone. There is no significant history of renal stone, renal dysfunction or any family history of endocrinal tumours. Ultrasonography revealed a composite nodule with cystic and solid elements. Focused surgical neck exploration was performed with removal of 4 gm adenoma . Microscopic examination showed, encapsulated lesion formed of chief cells of parathyroid organized within network of capillaries. The most exact mechanism for localizing a Parathyroid Adenoma is altogether MIBI scan along with neck ultrasonography. Surgical excision with monitoring of parathyroid hormone screening during operation is the recommended conductance. Need for the intraoperative Parathyroid hormone monitoring is debatable in Parathyroid adenoma due to accuracy of preoperative imaging.

Published: July 2022

Signature is a biometric attribute that is quite important for each individual that can be used as self-identity. Until now, the signature is still used as a sign of legal approval and is agreed upon by everyone. This makes the signature worthy of attention from a security aspect. Various approaches have been proposed in the development of signature identification to minimize signature forgery. This study will discuss the identification of signatures by using the image of the signature on paper. This identification consists of two processes, namely training and testing by utilizing Artificial Neural Networks Backpropagation and Wavelet Transform. Optimal results are obtained by using ANN which has learning rate 0,09, two hidden layers, each 20 and 10 nodes with the most superior Wavelet Haar reaching 94.44%.

Published: July 2022

Sexual disorder behaviour is growing day by day in our society. This behaviour conflicts with religion and socio-cultural values. One of the behaviour is related to sexual intercourse, which is consisted of two categories, legal and illegal. Illegal sexual intercourse, homosexual intercourse (gay and lesbian) in particular, needs knowledge among many disciplinaries. Forensic is necessary in order to enforce the law regarding sexual violence. By using forensics, we are able to medically examine the victim and obtain the information on how the crime happened. The result of the examination will be recorded as visum et repertum which becomes one of the evidence during trial.

This research is conducted to find the sexual disorder behaviour in homosexual intercourse using forensics. The method of the research is juridical normative research discussed with law theories in accordance to the law regulations. This research aims to prove the disorder on sexual orientation by using forensics, which is by using either VeR or the experts testimony to solve sexual violence crimes.

Published: July 2022

Based on data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) in 2017, there were 1.6 million children with special needs in Indonesia. From 1.6 million children with special needs, the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbud) estimates that there are seventy percent or more than one million children with special needs who have not received proper education in accordance with their rights. Meanwhile, only eighteen percent from thirty percent of children with special needs have received special education for children with special needs. Article 31 of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia (UUD 1945) regulates that every citizen has the right to receive education, children with special needs are included in regulated "citizen". In addition, according to Article 5 paragraph 2 of Law Number 20 of 2003 concerning the National Education System, it is clear that every citizen who has a special disability has the right to obtain special education. The main problem from the data above is lack of attention and the quality of education for children with special needs. Implementation based on the laws and regulations that apply to children with special needs is expected to improve services and quality of special education.

ESL TEACHERS’ PERCEPTION AND ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE ADOPTION OF EMERGENCY REMOTE TEACHING IN TIME OF CRISIS
Authors: Junaidi Yazid , Hashim Harwati , Ismail Hanita Hanim
Published: July 2022

Background and Purpose: The operation of educational institutions was suspended for a certain period due to the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak as social distancing came into effect as one of the World Health Organisation (WHO) strategies to help prevent further spreading of the virus. Subsequently, the education field witnessed a drastic shift in the mode of instruction, from the traditional physical classroom learning to online education and distance learning. Particularly in Malaysia, the suddenness of the implementation of Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) as per suggested by the Ministry of Education Malaysia, has opened a new paradigm and brought a new experience in teaching for most teachers. With ERT being activated for the second time, it became a major concern to various parties on the effectiveness of the mode of instruction towards the teaching and learning processes for both teachers and students. Hence, this paper aims to investigate ESL teachers’ perceptions and attitudes towards ERT to further develop the quality and effective distance education programs should a crisis like the current situation ever happens again.
 
Methodology: This study employed a quantitative descriptive research approach as the research method. An online survey of 124 Malaysian English as Second Language (ESL) teachers was conducted for descriptive analysis. The respondents of this study were recruited using the purposive sampling technique. They should have at least one year experience in English language teaching prior to conducting lesson using ERT, and they should be in-service Malaysian ESL primary school teachers.
Findings: The findings revealed that most of the teachers support ERT as the alternative mode of instruction in substituting the physical classroom learning in unprecedented time of crisis. However, certain difficulties remain, most notably issues regarding the digital divide. These implications call for more attention to developing more infrastructure and facilities, providing amenities and equipment as well as providing appropriate training to teachers.
 
Contributions: The findings provide valuable insights from the teachers’ perspective, also known as the policy implementers, to help develop better e-learning curriculum and develop better contingency plans or strategies for emergencies and time of crisis.
 
Keywords: Emergency remote teaching, ESL, e-learning, distance learning, COVID-19.

MUSLIM FEMINISTIC NARRATIVE IN POETRY: A LITERARY ANALYSIS OF FAHMIDA RIAZ'S POEMS
Authors: Basra Zainab , Alvi Urooj Fatima , Nadeem Mubashar
Published: July 2022

Background and Purpose: Fahmida Riaz was able to articulate precise feminist politics through her voice because she was audible to many women in the Pakistani context. The current study investigates how her     writings about the female body were not merely a tool to celebrate or raise the sexual distance, but also influenced a political intervention and shifted the dominant patriarchal structures present in literary as well as other social and political levels. The purpose of the research is to shed light on how a specific poet's voice was able to reach a large audience of women and articulate explicitly feminist politics in Pakistan.
 
Methodology: The Feminist Discourse Analysis (FCDA), another dimension of CDA, is employed in the analysis. The application of the FCDA model is adapted to examine how textual representations of gendered practices produce and sustain one gender power and dominance over the other. For the study, an operational method based on four models has been developed: the Fairclough Model, the Porreca Model (Porreca, 1984), Halliday's Transitivity Model (1985), and the FCDA (Lazar, 2005).
 
Findings: The findings clearly demonstrated how power abuse and gender domination are explicitly present in women's literature. The analysis discusses in detail how gender is constructed in these poems, and how this construction gave women a new perspective on life and defined how they are exploited in the name of social and religious cultures.
 
Contributions: With the rise of religious extremism in Pakistan, the male-dominated patriarchal narrative is receiving renewed attention. However, based on the findings obtained,  greater attention should be paid to the female narrative and the discourse produced by female writers. A similar analysis can be performed on the writings of Kishwar Naheed, another feminist writer, to gain a better understanding of the poetics of Muslim Feminist Narrative.
 
Keywords: Feminist politics, feminist critical discourse analysis, Porreca Model, Halliday’s transitivity model.

THE EFFECT OF EXPLICIT FORM-FOCUSED INSTRUCTION ON THE IMPLICIT KNOWLEDGE OF MALAYSIAN ENGLISH AS SECOND LANGUAGE LEARNERS
Authors: Hojjat Majid , Hasim Zuwati
Published: July 2022

Background and Purpose: Explicit form-focused instruction has significantly contributed to second language learners’ explicit knowledge. However, the effect of explicit form-focus instruction (FFI) on second language learners’ implicit knowledge of grammatical forms has been argued by scholars. This study examined the effectiveness of explicit FFI on implicit knowledge of ESL learners.
 
Methodology: This quasi-experimental research was conducted at a selected international school in the Klang Valley, Malaysia. The collected data were analysed through the application of ANCOVA and Scheffe’s test.
 
Findings: The findings showed that when explicit FFI was implemented in the form of metalinguistic information and metalinguistic explanation of the target form, the implicit knowledge of students would not increase. This suggested that the role of explicit FFI as the most effective and reliable tool to enhance implicit knowledge of learners should be doubted.
 
Contributions: The theoretical implication of this study indicates that explicit FFI does not contribute to development of the second language implicit knowledge. Pedagogically, this study’s findings could be beneficial either for teachers looking for an effective method of teaching or for researchers to utilise it in their studies.

Templos do trabalho: o canteiro de obras no México do século XVI
Authors: Thiesen José Rodolfo Pacheco
Published: July 2022

As altas culturas pré-colombianas eram sociedades capazes de edificar grandes obras no espaço urbano, e isso resultava de um modo determinado de organizar e se relacionar com o trabalho. A colonização impõe muito mais do que outra forma para a arquitetura e o urbanismo, a ser absorvida pelos trabalhadores indígenas: ela impõe outro tipo de relação dos trabalhadores da construção com o trabalho, seus processos e produtos. À luz de categorias da economia política e com centralidade no trabalho, serão analisados aspectos da produção da arquitetura mexicana no século XVI (pré-colonial e colonial), buscando revelar os efeitos da transformação do canteiro de obras em uma manufatura de tipo europeia.

This study was conducted to investigate the biochemical changes observed throughout the ripening process from veraison to harvest periods of 13 table grape cultivars of Vitis vinifera L. species. Present findings revealed that total acidity, total phenolics and total antioxidant capacity of the grape cultivars decreased and water soluble dry matter (WSDM) content, must pH and total anthocyanins increased throughout the ripening process. In harvest period, water soluble dry matter (WSDM) contents varied between 17.0% (‘Trakya İlkeren’ and ‘Şilfoni cultivars’) and 21.6% (‘Kureyş’ cultivar); total acidity values varied between 0.42 g l–1 (Tekirdağ Seedless cultivar) and 1.26 g l–1 (‘Kızılatım’ cultivar); must pH values varied between 2.58 (‘Köhnü’ cultivar) and 3.29 (‘Trakya İlkeren’ cultivar); ripening index values varied between 15.60 (‘Şilfoni’ cultivar) and 41.90 (‘Tekirdağ Seedless’ cultivar); total phenolics varied between 723.5 µg GAE g–1 (‘Mazırım’ cultivar) and 2657 µg GAE g–1 (‘Banazı Karası’ cultivar); total antioxidant capacities varied between 4.27 µmol TE g–1 (‘Mazırım’ cultivar) and 8.21 µmol TE g–1 (‘Köhnü’ cultivar); total anthocyanins varied between 32.3 malvidin-3-o-glikozit µg g–1 (‘Kızılatım’ cultivar) and 205.2 malvidin-3-o-glikozit µg g–1 (‘Banazı Karası’ cultivar). Berry skin colors strongly correlated with total phenolics (R2 = 0.9376) and total antioxidant capacity (R2 = 0.8296).

Daminozide (B-Nine) it is a plant growth regulator, is translocated from the leaves to the stem to avoid elongation and produce more compact plants and uniform growth and vigor. For the cultivation of Lisiathus the information of the damonizide application is scarce despite of great marketing potential, so the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of daminozide on the vegetative growth and flowering of Lisianthus grown in pot. Granulated Lisianthus seeds were germinated and transplanted into pots under nursery conditions. Three foliar applications of daminozide were realized; two applications in vegetative stage and one in flowering, adding three concentrations in each of them (0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 ml L–1) were used and water was applied as a control during the vegetative and flowering phases. The applications of daminozide at 1.0 and 1.5 ml L–1 were optimal for the vegetative development in Lisianthus (plant height – 15 cm, size of the internodes – 2.5 cm, number of branches – 3, width and length of the leaves – 3 cm and 6.5 cm), while the dose of 0.5 ml L–1 was favorable for all flowering stages (beginning of flowering – 182 buttons, sepals closed and larger than the petals – 53), visible petals larger than the sepals – 25, floral opening and full flowering – 3 flowers per plant). Based on these results, the application of B-Nine at low concentrations (0.5 and 1 ml L–1) is recommended for the development of Lisianthus in pots.

Published: July 2022

Introduction

The present systematic review assesses the literature which identifies an association between surgical adjunctive procedures for accelerating tooth movement (SAPATM) during orthodontic therapy and orthodontically induced external root resorption (OIERR). By determining the level of association, the results may provide clinical evidence for minimising the deleterious effects of orthodontic tooth movement.

Methods

Electronic databases including Medline, PubMed, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL, Worldcat, OpenGrey, and the Cochrane Library were searched and followed by further searches from citations of included articles. Searches were undertaken with no restrictions on year, publication status, nor language. The selection criteria included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) conducted using surgical procedures to accelerate orthodontic therapy in conjunction with fixed orthodontic appliances on human patients. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias (RoB) Tool and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. Inter-rater agreement of the review authors was used for the inclusion of primary articles, RoB assessment and evaluation of the quality of evidence (GRADE) and was calculated using Cohen’s kappa statistic.

Results

A total of 1118 articles were retrieved in the initial search. After the review process, 13 article trials met the inclusion criteria. Sample sizes ranged from 20 to 52 patients. Two studies showed a statistically significant reduction in OIERR, with a third showing both an increase and decrease of OIERR on different roots of the same maxillary molar tooth. A significant decrease in treatment time was shown by four studies, while six studies showed increased tooth movement. All included studies were classified as having low to minor concerns of bias and a low quality of evidence.

Conclusions

There is an apparent shortage of well-designed and reported RCTs on the effect of SAPATM on OIERR. However, there is some evidence to suggest OIERR is reduced following SAPATM. The use of SAPATM is also shown to increase tooth movement and reduce overall treatment time, but its benefits may be considered limited to the initial post-operative period.
Broadening Public Engagement in Spatial Planning through Digital Participatory Mapping: Experiences from Latvia

Published: July 2022

Digital participatory mapping is an emerging and largely unexplored practice in Latvia despite its potential to broaden and diversify public engagement processes. This study explores the spectrum of currently used digital participatory mapping tools through select examples from Latvian municipalities. Furthermore, the study examines the citizens’ participatory habits and preferences using a small-scale citizen survey and co-design activity. The obtained results allow reflection on the design, functionality, and engagement formats of the existing participatory mapping tools compared to the citizens’ expectations.
Estimation of optimal timing of early selection based on time trends of genetic parameters in Abies sachalinensis

Early selection is an imperative in ongoing forest tree breeding. This study estimated the optimal timing of early selection in Abies sachalinensis (F. Schmidt) Mast. based on time trends of genetic parameters obtained from two test sites. Tree height (Ht
) at 5, 10 (11), 15, 20, 30, and 40 years of age and diameter at breast height (DBH) at 20, 30, and 40 years of age were analyzed. The efficiency of early selection per year (E) for performing early indirect selection relative to performing direct selection at the earliest rotation age (40 years of age) was estimated based on narrow-sense heritability (h
2) and age–age genetic correlation (r). The h
2 of Ht
peaked at 10 or 15 years of age (0.52–0.71), and that of DBH was the highest at 20 years of age (0.19 or 0.22). The age–age genetic correlation between tree heights or between tree height and DBH at different ages decreased with increasing differences between ages (regression coefficients were −0.011 and −0.007, respectively). The E values were highest at 10 or 15 years of age (0.84-1.74 and 1.42-2.24 for Ht
and Ht
-DBH, respectively), indicating the optimum selection timing. In Japapnese forestry, the initial growth rate is considered important for reducing weeding costs. Selection at 10 or 15 years of age had more than in >65 % indirect genetic gain relative to the direct genetic gain at 5 years of age; thus, selection at 10-15 years of age is appropriate considering the initial and mature phases of tree growth.

Background:

Drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome is a rare idiosyncratic and unpredictable drug reaction most commonly attributed to anticonvulsants, allopurinol, and antibiotics. Fever in combination with cutaneous manifestations and eosinophilia are the cardinal clinical findings, while organ involvement and very rarely pancytopenia can be present.

Case presentation:

We describe a 26-year-old female patient with pancytopenia in the context of lamotrigine-induced DRESS and we summarize this as a potentially life-threatening hypersensitivity reaction.

Conclusion:

DRESS should be suspected in patients presenting with fever, eosinophilia, skin involvement, and/or visceral organ involvement, who have started a new drug during the past 2 to 6 weeks, as early recognition of this syndrome with subsequent discontinuation of the offending drug could be lifesaving.

This study was aimed to determine the effect of hatching system (house and machine) and egg weight (heavy and light) on growth performance and meat quality traits in geese. The study was carried out for 12 weeks with a total of 220 Turkish native geese. The geese were individually weighed every 2 weeks during the study, on these same weeks feed conversion ratio (FCR) was measured. Hot and cold dressed, blood, head, foot, edible internal organs (heart, liver, gizzard), abdominal fat, neck, back, breast, thigh and wing percentages were determined. Also cooking loss, drip loss, color and pH were determined as meat quality traits. There was no significant difference between the egg weight groups in terms of BW. However, the geese produced in the house hatching system showed more BW from 6 to 12 weeks of age onwards compared to the machine system. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of FCR by 8 weeks. Both 10 and 12 weeks FCR were determined as the worst house heavy, while the best house light groups. Hot and cold carcass percentages in geese hatched from heavy were higher rates than light eggs. The percentage of wings differed significantly among geese produced from different egg weight groups. Breast meat cooking loss was found higher rates in heavy eggs than light eggs, while thigh meat cooking loss was found higher rates in the house than machine system. The results of this study show that geese hatched in the house system had more BW at the slaughter age compared to machine system geese. In addition, geese produced from heavy eggs showed a higher hot and cold dressed percentages than geese produced from light eggs.
