Published: September 2023

Out of all type of pollutions that exist, noise is considered as the most annoying one. Ambient noise has increasingly posed a problem to marine beings over the decades. Modern day humans have infested oceans with noise pollution. Noise can easily blanket a vast area below the surface of water and have underlying effects as a result. Whales and a few other cetacean species use a combination of sounds to create vocalizations. The use of SONAR and seismic guns underwater has caused a major hearing loss issue in cetaceans and altered their unique calls. Invertebrates; that consist of gastropods, annelids, cephalopods, etc.; too are affected by deep sea noise. Marine animals have found it difficult to sense their prey or predator, communicate with their species or even navigate through the oceans due to deep sea noise. The alienating noise creates a bubble around the ecosystem it travels through causing the habitants to experience a sudden parasympathetic surge and force them to flee.

Authors: Vilchez-Perozo Jorge , Albany Nilca , Pliego Fernando , Sánchez Carolina
Published: September 2023

Somatic embryogenesis is an alternative for the accelerated propagation of promising guava (Psidium guajava L.) materials of agronomic interest. However, low maturation and germination rates of somatic embryos are some of the aspects that limit its application in breeding programs for different purposes. In this sense, the effect of three concentrations (0, 1 and 1.5 mg.L-1) of abscisic acid (ABA) on embryo maturation and two concentrations of sucrose (3 and 5 %) and Murashige and Skoog (MS) macronutrients (50 and 100 %) on the germination of somatic embryos of guava var. Cuban Red Dwarf EEA-1840 were studied. After six weeks of culture, ABA had a negative effect on somatic embryo maturation in culture media supplemented with 1 or 1.5 mg.L-1, whereas 3.95 to 5.49 times more mature embryos were observed in the absence of ABA. Germination of somatic embryos was significantly improved when the concentration of macronutrient in the culture medium was reduced independently of the sucrose concentration [MS 50 % + 3 % of sucrose (73,3 %) and MS 50 % + 5 % de sucrose (55,0 %)]. It is concluded that the simplification of the culture media with reduction of the macroelements MS and sucrose to standard concentration favors the germination of mature embryos of guava var. Cuban Red Dwarf EEA-1840.

Authors: Rajitha Beerelli , Suvarna Padma
Published: October 2023

In this current research work, the sol-gel method was employed to synthesise, characterize and evaluate the photocatalytic activity of bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3, BFO) doped with two distinctive components consisting of a rare earth element Gadolinium (Gd) and a transition metal Copper (Cu). The dopant concentrations were systematically varied with different weight percentages (wt.%) denoted as Bi1-xGdxFe1-yCuyO3 (where ‘x’ = 0.10, 0.15 and 0.20 wt.%, where ‘y’ = 0.05, 0.10, and 0.15 wt.%). Subsequently, characterizations of the prepared samples were conducted using an array of cutting-edge analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), filed emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD analysis results indicated that the presence of small impurity peaks was found in both Gd-doped BFO and GdCu-doped BFO. The FE-SEM and TEM results provided confirmation that the material was observed as a spherical shape, and the elemental compositions were also confirmed through EDAX analysis. The photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B dye under the influence of visible light irradiation was carried out and the results revealed varying degradation times, specifically, for Gd and Cu-doped BFO (Gd and Cu = 0.1 wt.%) achieved almost 98% degradation occurred in 30 minutes.

Academic staff and students from diverse disciplines at University of South Australia’s (UniSA) Centre for Regional Engagement (CRE) were recruited to the study. The research investigated whether engagement in mindfulness meditation by lecturers can improve their mental well-being and contribute to affective teaching and learning. The findings show that staff members learned mindfulness meditation techniques, improved their concentration and mental health status and also improved with regards to the implementation of the affective teaching skills. The impact of affective teaching practices on student learning and the perceptions of students about what constitutes ‘good teaching’ were also investigated. Students reported that the affective teaching of especially excellent teachers was improved through the meditation intervention. Furthermore they reported that the most important component of affective learning is that lecturers listen to them as students. The study provides important data related to the value of affective teaching and learning in a tertiary environment, as well as the potential impact on the social responsibility of graduates employed by regional businesses.
Specifics of the Implementation of PPP Standards: Analysis of the State Audit on the Example of Foreign Practice
Authors: Tassybay Bayansulu , Zhusupova Aigerim , Bulakbay Zhanat , Amanova Gulnara , Rakayeva Aliya
Published: September 2023

The necessity to develop a state policy in the field of rational use of regional assets is due to the need to overcome the consequences of the economic crisis in the context of the introduction and development of effective application of international auditing standards in our country. This makes it possible to understand the requirements of the standards better, as well as accelerate their implementation into domestic audit practice. The study identifies the principles and strategic goals of public policy. In order to work successfully with the private sector, public authorities need to understand the fundamental principles and goals underlying PPPs clearly. Under PPP agreements, private sector contractors become long-term service providers rather than just initial developers of assets, combining the responsibilities of designing, creating, operating and possibly financing assets to provide services needed by the public sector. The article concludes that all the considered models of public policy development generally follow a common algorithm for making political decisions: interests - priorities - risks - goals - resources - decisions. Models define universal characteristics that are characteristic of policy-making processes. In conclusion, it is noted that in the process of developing and implementing state policy in the field of rational use of regional assets, it is necessary to take into account that its main role should not be in the distribution of income between regions but in creating conditions for involving regional assets in production processes through their rational use, in order to increase the economic activity of regions and the quality of life of their population.

A hanseníase seria uma doença comum se não fosse por seus episódios reacionais com risco de incapacidades mantendo o estigma relacionado à "lepra". Essas reações e a perda potencial da função neural podem ocorrer antes, durante e após o tratamento, feito com poliquimioterapia (PQT). A alta por cura se dá pelo número de doses e regularidade do tratamento, quando o paciente sai do registro ativo e dos coeficientes de prevalência. Objetivando avaliar a magnitude das reações hansênicas pós-alta e as questões operacionais referentes a qualidade da assistência, foram revisados prontuários de 149 pacientes quereceberam alta de hanseníase de 1994 a 1999, no Centro de Saúde Escola Jaraguá — UFU, utilizando a Ficha de Investigação de Intercorrências Pós-Alta por Cura do Ministério da Saúde. Destes, 34 (23%) apresentaram reação pós-alta, sendo 11,76% PB e 88,23% MB. Ocorreu uma média de 3 episódios por paciente dimorfo e 4 por paciente virchowiano. Dos PB, 100% apresentaram reação reversa (RR). Entre os MB, 50% apresentaram RR, 40% eritema nodoso hansênico (ENH), 7% neurite isolada e 3% reação mista. Em 91% dos casos, o primeiro episódio reacional ocorreu no primeiro ano pós-tratamento. Houve correlação positiva entre IB médio no diagnóstico e número deepisódios reacionais durante o tratamento e pós-alta. Dos pacientes com reação pós-alta, 97% utilizaram prednisona e 32% talidomida, significando 22% e 8%, respectivamente,dos pacientes em alta. Graus de incapacidade II e Ill ocorreram em MB da faixa etária economicamente ativa.Discute-se a necessidade de implementar programas de controle específicos para esse novo grupo de pacientes, com garantia de medicamentos, capacitação de pessoal para o monitoramento simplificado das neurites e o manejo dos efeitos adversos da terapêutica com corticoesteróides, visando à prevenção de incapacidades.

O abandono do tratamento entre pacientes hansenianos tem constituído um grave problema aos profissionais da área de saúde pública. Este trabalho tem por objetivo analisar os motivos alegados pelos pacientes para a falta e/ou abandono de seus tratamentos. Trata-se de um estudo retrospectivo, envolvendo uma amostra de 42 pacientes que faltaram e/ou abandonaram o tratamento no período de 1 994 a 1996. Para coleta de dados utilizouse roteiro semi-estruturado de entrevista. As respostas foram agrupadas em categorias gerais referentes a fatores intrínsecos e extrínsecos que caracterizam o abandono e/ou falta. A relação entre falta e abandono entre os pacientes multibacilares (MB) foi 0,8:1 e entre os paucibacilares (PB) 0,7:1. Entre os pacientes do tipo PB destacaram-se os fatores intrínsecos para justificar o abandono do tratamento e, entre os pacientes MB, evidenciou-se uma prevalência de fatores extrínsecos como jus ti f icação de suas faltas . Levando-se em consideração os dados apresentados, há necessidade de maior aprofundamento nessa área, a fim de orientar aproposta metodológica do trabalho no Programa deControle da Hanseníase.

O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar se indivíduos acometidos pela hanseníase realizavam adequadamente a prática do autocuidado e possíveis fatores interferentes. Trata-se de um estudo documental, observacional e descritivo de inquérito domiciliar. A amostra abrangeu todos os onze pacientes detectados durante um ano, em um município com 120.000 habitantes no interior do estado de SP. Foram coletados os dados clínicos e cuidados prescritos dos prontuários. A entrevista e a observação das práticas de autocuidado foram realizadas no domicílio. Foi solicitado aos participantes para identificarem os problemas decorrentes da doença, demonstrarem quais, como e quando faziam o autocuidado, o qual foi classificado como: realizado adequadamente, parcialmente ou não realizado. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa (Nº 06/2007). Dos cinco que apresentavam grau 2 de incapacidades, três realizavam parcialmente e dois não realizavam o autocuidado. Demonstraram dificuldades em aceitar o comprometimento físico e de incorporar as práticas diárias por fatores multicausal, o mesmo aconteceu com aqueles com grau 1. A necessidade da manutenção do trabalho laboral, com exposição a traumas físicos e em período integral, pode levar a ocultação da doença, seja para si ou para a sociedade, e dificultar as ações de autocuidado, tanto pela falta de tempo quanto pela não aceitação da doença. O modelo paternalista, fragmentador e mecânico da assistência em saúde, sugere uma tendência à dependência dos serviços institucionais, desconstruindo a autonomia e a responsabilidade individual sobre seu estado de saúde, desmotivando as ações do autocuidado domiciliar.

Let R be an abelian semiring with unity, U be an R-semimodule. The inclusion subsemimodule graph of U, indicated IS(U), is a graph with nodes that all non-trivial subsemimodules of U and two different nodes N and L are adjacent if and only if N ⊂ L or L ⊂ N. In this worke, proved that if U is subtractive semimodule then IS(U) is not connected if is a direct sum of two simple R-semimodules. Besides, it has been proved that IS(U) is a complete graph if and only if U is a uniserial semimodule. girth, diameter, chromatic and clique numbers of IS(U) have been studied. and only if U.

In our review of payments cryptography, we analyze the security of the Australian card payment system. In the analysis, we examine existing cryptographic protocols using well-known techniques. We discuss the Australian Triple-DES variant methods (AS 2805) which offer key usage division. We then compare Triple-DES variants with alternative mechanisms to discover a significant weakness in the AS 2805 methods.

Students are impacted by new developments in digital learning tools in various ways, enhancing their learning experience. The transition of the education system towards online education requires scrutiny of the satisfaction of the students with remote learning through the digital platform. This study intends to examine the level of satisfaction of undergraduate and postgraduate students through their experience with online learning. The present study took a sample of 147 students from higher education institutions and the data was collected through a questionnaire based on simple random sampling methods. The present study’s result shows a significant and positive relationship between students’ satisfaction and remote learning. The findings will aid educators and academics in identifying elements that can improve the level of students’ satisfaction with remote learning.

Published: October 2023

IntroductionThe American Urological Association (AUA) and the European Association of Urology (EAU) currently recommend partial nephrectomy (PN) over ablation for cT1b lesions. However, recent series have shown comparable outcomes for cryoablation (CA) when compared to PN, making it an appealing alternative for a select group of patients. The objective of this manuscript is to assess treatment outcomes and complications of CA for cT1b lesions.MethodsUsing Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a comprehensive search was done on MEDLINE and Cochrane Library electronic databases identifying studies that reported on outcomes and complications of CA for kidney tumors. Inclusion criteria included cT1b lesions between 4 cm and 7 cm, excluding treatment of other sizes.ResultsA total of 347 patients with cT1b lesions identified on imaging underwent percutaneous or laparoscopic CA. The average age was > 65 years, the median size of lesions and RENAL score ranged between 4.3–4.8 cm and 8–9, respectively. The majority of patients had a Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) of 2, and median follow-up ranged between 13 months and 95 months. Across all the series, primary and secondary success rates were between 84%–98% and 92%–98%, respectively. The local recurrence ranged from 2.8% to 27%. For patients with documented RCC on biopsy, the 5-year overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and metastasis-free survival (MFS) ranged from 56%–91%, 85%–100%, 70%–96.4%, and 90%–96%, respectively. The major complication rate (Clavien-Dindo III-V) was low, at 6.2%.ConclusionWith promising survival outcomes and low complication rates perioperatively, CA is acceptable in a select group of patients with T1b renal tumors, including those who are older, have multiple comorbidities, or have relative or absolute contraindication to surgery.

As the therapeutic landscape for metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (mccRCC) expands to include vascular endothelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGFR TKIs) and immunotherapies, new challenges are in place for evaluating and treating refractory disease. Assessing and managing refractory disease has several elements: (1) the mechanism(s) of front-line treatment, (2) timing of progressive disease, (3) rapidity and sites of progressing disease, (4) use of adjuvant therapy, and (5) incorporation of surgical and radiation techniques. These variables all have distinct impact on the biology of refractory or resistant mccRCC. A better understanding of the essential mechanisms of both primary and secondary immunotherapy resistance will inform biomarker development and therapeutic strategies in the refractory setting. This paper addresses the current understanding of treatment sequencing in refractory mccRCC, focusing on treatment options with prospective clinical trial data, considers refractory mccRCC after adjuvant immunotherapy, and incorporates radiation or surgical resection for oligoprogressive disease.
