Published: January 2025

Vikarabad district of Telangana is major pulse-producing district. the district yields are lower on average than the state yields. Vikarabad district are mostly Vertisols having the higher clay content also creates deep cracks in case of drought spells and water logging under the heavy rains. There is a usual practice of flatbed sowing of pigeon pea in the district. These aggravate the situation and subsequently adversely affect to the crop productivity. To address the above issue, an assessment was conducted by sowing pigeon pea variety TDRG-59 on raised bed, during the year kharif - 2022 and 2023 in five different locations of Vikarabad district by the DAATT centre PJTAU, Tandur. Treatments included raised bed sowing (T1) and flatbed sowing (T2). Results revealed that raised bed sowing improved pigeon pea performance compared to flatbed sowing. Average plant height (195 cm), number of pods per plant (209), and yield (2094 kg/ha) were higher with raised bed sowing, the benefit-cost ratio was also higher 2.77 for raised beds, when compared to 2.33 for flatbed. These findings demonstrate that sowing pigeon pea under the raised bed method is more effective for improving yield and profitability, particularly in the Vertisols of Vikarabad district, Telangana. This system ensures effective water management, promoting sustainable agriculture and maximizing productivity under diversify farming conditions.

Published: January 2025

Rice (Oryza sativa) cultivation is a cornerstone of India's economy and food security, with the nation ranking second only to China in annual production. Despite considerable advancements in recent years, rice yields remain below their maximum potential. Enhancing rice productivity through precise and advanced mineral nutrition techniques offers a promising solution for overcoming nutrient deficiencies in soils and improving crop yields. Zinc, an essential micronutrient, plays a crucial role in enzyme activation, protein synthesis, and overall plant metabolism. However, zinc deficiency is a widespread issue in many agricultural soils, particularly affecting rice crops, leading to reduced growth and yield. Addressing this deficiency through the application of appropriate zinc formulations is vital for improving rice productivity in zinc-deficient soils. A pot experiment was carried out in department of soil science and agricultural chemistry, Annamalai University, Chidambaram, Tamilnadu during kharif of 2023 and included four sources of zinc and four levels of zinc levels to study their comparative performances and improve the yield of rice.  Growth characters viz., plant height, number of tillers hill-1, leaf area index, chlorophyll content, dry matter production, yield characters viz., no of panicles pot-1, no. of grains panicle-1, panicle length and test weight and grain and straw yield were recorded. The results indicated that the application of zinc lysinate at 5 kg ha-1, either individually or in combination, produced the highest growth and yield parameters, with grain (43.01 g pot-1) and straw (58.87 g pot-1) yields surpassing those of other treatments, demonstrating its potential to improve rice productivity in zinc-deficient soils.

Published: January 2025

Aims: Antimicrobial resistance, defined by the WHO as “resistance of a micro-organism to an antibiotic to which it was previously sensitive”, results from the ability of the bacterium to withstand the attack of antibiotics. This resistance is a major factor in the risk of therapeutic failure and the spread of multidrug-resistant strains from animals to humans. The present study was aimed to assess the antibiotic resistance of strains of Escherichia coli and Salmonella sp. Isolated from cattle farms in the Department of Vina, Cameroon.
Place and Duration of Study: The study involved 30 strains of Salmonella (05) and Escherichia coli (25) isolated from 60 samples of raw cow milk, collected from July to August 2021 in Vina, Adamawa Province. The samples were each made up of 15 ml of milk, taken aseptically from cattle farms and sales depots.
Methodology: Antibiotic susceptibility of 25 strains of Escherichia coli and 5 Salmonella sp. strains was wanted, according to the standard Mueller-Hinton agar diffusion method 16 antibiotic discs.
Results: The diameters of the inhibition zones formed showed fairly high resistance rates, 87.5% for Salmonella sp. and 75% for E. coli. Bacterial strains are all resistant to the Penicillin, Macrolides and Diaminopyrimidines tested. Good sensitivity was observed with levofloxacin (100%), cefixime (82.14%) and gentamycin (78.60%).
Conclusion: The importance of these resistances reflects the intensive previous use of antibiotics in livestock farming as growth-promoting additives.

The use of project management (PM) is of immense value in achieving project success that ultimately assists businesses to thrive and contribute to the growth of an economy. This research has one main research question “How does the use of PM techniques have positive impact on project outcomes in New Zealand (NZ) businesses?”. The research adopted inductive approach to build theory and qualitative research methodology to address the main research question using four research objectives. This is an exploratory research using a case study research strategy that is coherent with the inductive qualitative research design. Two organisations representing the construction services and the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) services business in NZ were chosen. In-depth interviews were used to collect data, data analysis was completed through thematic analysis techniques. Findings were assessed through a theoretical construct mainly based on the Project Management Institute’s (PMI) PM framework. Findings indicated that the two organisations had strong focus on PM function supported by their organisational structures. Organisation A relied more on Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and Gantt chart technics while organisation B adopted an agile approach. Both considered designating project manager when deploying a formal PM function. While Company A has not implemented dedicated technology to support PM function, Company B has though not fully utilised. Hopefully, findings from this study will assist organisations in the construction and ICT services business sectors being significantly reliant on PM function to deliver project outcomes and to be successful in their businesses.
Elastic Data Binning: Time-Series Sketching for Time-Domain Astrophysics Analysis
Authors: Phungtua-eng Thanapol , Sako Shigeyuki , Nishikawa Yushi , Yamamoto Yoshitaka
Published: July 2023

Time-domain astrophysics analysis (TDAA) involves observational surveys of celestial phenomena that may contain irrelevant information because of several factors, one of which is the sensitivity of the optical telescopes. Data binning is a typical technique for removing inconsistencies and clarifying the main characteristics of the original data in astrophysics analysis. It splits the data sequence into smaller bins with a fixed size and subsequently sketches them into a new representation form. In this study, we introduce a novel approach, called elastic data binning (EBinning), to automatically adjust each bin size using two statistical metrics based on the Student's t-test for linear regression and Hoeffding inequality. EBinning outperforms well-known algorithms in TDAA for extracting relevant characteristics of time-series data, called lightcurve. We demonstrate the successful representation of various characteristics in the lightcurve gathered from the Kiso Schmidt telescope using EBinning and its applicability for transient detection in TDAA.

Autonomía económica de las mujeres en la Región Andina
Authors: Itriago Déborah
Published: July 2023

A pesar de los avances en igualdad de género en la región andina, las mujeres aún muestran baja autonomía económica. El presente estudio propone promover iniciativas integrales que aborden las brechas de género y territoriales de manera conjunta. Una propuesta consistente con este enfoque es la promoción de clústeres (ecosistemas socioproductivos) en zonas de exclusión social. Estos clústeres buscan fortalecer el tejido asociativo de las mujeres y mejorar su acceso a recursos productivos, como servicios financieros y canales para la comercialización de bienes y servicios. Para diseñar ésta y otras iniciativas para el abordaje de los determinantes de la baja autonomía económica de las mujeres en la región andina y fomentar su empoderamiento económico, el informe plantea cuatro principios orientadores. Primero, se requiere un análisis detallado del contexto, identificando los factores estructurales que limitan la autonomía económica de las mujeres desde la perspectiva de la División Sexual del Trabajo. Segundo, se enfatiza la importancia del acompañamiento durante el proceso, superando discriminaciones y exclusiones históricas. Tercero, se destaca la necesidad de identificar y gestionar los impactos diferenciados de género. Por último, se propone la incorporación de elementos explícitos para contrarrestar estereotipos y prejuicios.

Published: July 2023

Persistent endodontic infections (PEIs) mediated by bacterial biofilm are the main cause of persistent periapical inflammation, resulting in recurrent periapical abscesses and progressive bone destruction. However, conventional root canal disinfectants are highly damaging to the tooth and periodontal tissue as well as ineffective in treating persistent root canal infections. Antimicrobial materials that are biocompatible with apical tissues and have the ability to eliminate PEIs-associated bacteria are urgently needed. Here, poly(lysine) derived carbon quantum dots (PL-CQDs) are fabricated using a pyrolysis method for removing PEIs-associated bacterial biofilms. Due to their ultra-smaller size, high positive charge, and active reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation capacity, PL-CQDs exhibit highly effective antibacterial activity against Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis), which is greatly dependent on PL-CQDs concentrations. 100 µg/mL PL-CQDs could totally kill E. faecalis in 5 min. Importantly, PL-CQDs are effective in eliminating biofilms in the isolated teeth model, disrupting the dense structure of biofilms.PL-CQDs have acceptable cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility in vitro as well as good biosafe in vivo. Thus, PL-CQDs provide a new strategy for the treatment of E. faecalis-associated PEIs.

Published: July 2023

Natural steroids are organic compounds that play important physiological
roles in various organisms. They are the key components of a cell, which act as
important signalling molecules engaging in stress response, metabolic activities,
reproduction, inflammation, and behavioural uniformities. Naturally, the human body
embraces a cluster of steroids in the form of biological hormones, namely, sex
hormones, adrenal cortical hormones and bile acids. Steroidal derivatives can imitate
human hormones and exhibit their activities by boosting enzymes that the body lacks.
Clinically, it is evident that the distribution of synthetic steroids is high in
pharmaceutical use for hormonal anomalies, but they provide adverse side effects over
long term usage. Steroids work as immunosuppressants to control many autoimmune
disorders concerned with inflammation, but they also reduce the activity of the immune
system, which is the body’s natural defence against infection and illness. Replacement
of natural steroids sourced from herbal plants, marine invertebrates, bacteria, algae, and
fungi has a medicinal value that aids in the treatment of various ailments. Apart from
hormonal functions, bio-derived steroids also display a safe and copious
pharmacological profile for anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, anti-neoplastic, neuroprotective, and cardioprotective activities. This chapter discusses the
prevalence of various naturally available steroids in different entities and their suitable
applications in various fields.
False Positive Rose Bengal Test in COVID-19 Patients with Abnormal T3 And T4 Levels
Authors: Aziz Jasim Anam
Published: July 2023

Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection that is quite frequent. Fever, weakness, sweating, especially at night, and joint discomfort are indications of brucellosis. COVID-19 symptoms are similar to those of brucellosis, which may cause a delay in identifying the latter. Objectives: The study aims to investigate patients with COVID-19 who test positive for Rose Bengal and who suffer from high fever, persistent joint pain, and fatigue, as well as abnormal levels of T4 and T3 hormone determination. 19 was detected in 90 patients (45 males and 45 females) between July 1 and September 20, 2020. The patients' ages ranged from 20 to 63 years. Laboratory tests were 2019-nCoV IgG/IgM COMBO test card, T4, T3, Rose Bengal Plate Test, C-reactive protein test (CRP), and total white blood cell count (WBCs). COVID-19 was detected in 90 patients (45 males and 45 females) between July 1 and September 20, 2020. All patients suffered from fewer white blood cells (less than 4000 cells\ cm3). The level of CRP protein was slightly higher in men than in women during the first week of infection, 40 (88.88%) and 35 (77.77%), respectively. At the same time, the T3 and T4 hormone levels in both sexes were less than expected in most patients. The levels of CRP protein in most patients at the beginning of infection were high (13.7-97 mg/L in both sexes. Five days after contracting COVID-19, a Rose Bengal test was performed on all patients. The highest incidence of brucellosis in COVID-19 patients was in the age groups 21-30 (38.18%) and 31-40 (34.54%), respectively. Doctors worldwide are concentrating on the COVID-19 epidemic. However, they must pay close attention to one crucial point: distinguishing COVID-19 from brucellosis to receive the proper therapy and recover quickly without any drug-related complications.

Role of cortisol in the formation of metabolic syndrome in children: literature review and own observations
Authors: Gromnatska N. , Pasichnyuk I. , Tomashevska O.
Published: July 2023

Background. The issue of the pathogenetic influence of cortisol on the development of metabolic syndrome (MS) in children is considered. The above-threshold values of cortisol are proposed to be taken as a marker of MS. The purpose was to study the relationship between blood cortisol and MS components in children. Materials and methods. We have examined 44 children with MS (study group; waist circumference > 90th percentile of the distribution according to age and sex) and 14 children without signs of MS (controls). The children of the study groups did not differ in age and gender. Anthropometric parameters (body weight, height, body mass index, neck, waist, and hip circumferences, waist/hip circumference index), blood cortisol and leptin, blood lipid and carbohydrate spectrum (total cholesterol, high- and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, blood glucose, and insulin, HOMA-IR and glucose/insulin indices) were evaluated. The measurement of blood pressure with the calculation of the average level was conducted three times. The diagnosis of MS was formed according to the IDF guidelines, 2007. Results. It was found that the level of blood cortisol in children with MS (362.9 (255.5–634.1) µg/l) was 37.9 % lower than in controls (р > 0.05). The frequency of the above-threshold blood cortisol values in children of both groups was 31.8 and 50.0 %, respectively (р > 0.05). The study of dependence using the Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient between blood cortisol and anthropometric parameters (rmax = 0.16; p > 0.05), lipids (rmax = 0.4; р > 0.05), carbohydrate metabolism (rmax = 0.26; р > 0.05), and blood leptin (r = 0.19; р > 0.05) did not reveal any significance. A significant correlation was found between cortisol and systolic blood pressure. Conclusions. In children with MS, there was no significant difference in the level of blood cortisol compared to those without MS criteria. The association of blood cortisol and MS criteria other than systolic blood pressure has not been found. Although cortisol is important in the formation of systolic blood pressure, it cannot serve as a marker of MS in children since it is not a criterion-forming sign of MS.

Published: July 2023

The detection of high voltage permanent magnet motors has always been a
big problem due to the interference of high voltage and magnetic field
on the diagnosis. Especially the magenetic tile of the motor, the
failure of the magenetic tile will directly lead to the operation
failure of the motor. We propose Multi-view Unsupervised Consistent
Soft-label Feature Selection(MUCSFS). This method constructed consistent
pseudo-labels through soft labels of clustering affinity of each view
sample and constructed the model by integrating selection constraints
into the mapping model. This model is used to filter the fault data set
to get the feature subset, and the feature subset is used to cluster. We
verify the effectiveness of the method by simulating multi-view data and
through the fault clustering experiment of the magnetic tile fault data
set of high voltage motor, it is confirmed that our method can
effectively cluster the fault categories.

Durch die Covid-19-Pandemie gerieten Konzepte von Nähe und Distanz im Spannungsfeld von Körper, Ökologie und Atmosphäre ebenso auf neue Weise ins Blickfeld wie partizipative und interventionistische choreographische Projekte. Indem in der Pandemie die Nutzung des städtischen Raums für die Bewohner*innen reduziert wurde, beeinflusste dies auf gravierende Weise speziell solche choreographischen Projekte, die etablierte Raumwahrnehmungen durchkreuzen, den Modus von Räumen verändern und zugleich die ordnenden Kräfte solcher Räume deutlich machen wollten. Am Beispiel von zwei Produktionen – trajectory – pictures of the fleeting world des Münchner Choreographen Micha Purucker sowie Zerstreuung überall! Ein internationales Radioballett der Gruppe Ligna – konturiert der Beitrag, wie sich Projekte im Kontext der Pandemie auf je besondere kinästhetische und atmosphärische Weise im öffentlichen Raum situieren. Außerdem fragt er danach, welche Affizierungsstrategien mit Bruno Latours Wo bin ich? Lektionen aus dem Lockdown (2021) korrespondieren.

Published: July 2023

The Basin of Mexico is an endorheic lacustrine basin with an outstanding ecological and social history. There is evidence that it hosted human settlers since the late Pleistocene. This basin was home to great antique civilizations and many endemic species of flora and fauna. The main lake in the Basin was the Great Lake of Mexico, which was divided into five lakes and provided goods and services to the native communities. After the Spanish conquest, a rule was established to drain the lakes to prevent flooding in the city. The naturalist Alexander von Humboldt visited Mexico City in the early 1800s, and carried out the first formal scientific water quality analysis of the lakes of the basin. The Basin of Mexico gone through serious modifications due to urbanization and changes of land use reducing the lacustrine area to the virtual extinction of the lakes. The lakes are currently reduced to wetlands accounting for only 2.83% of the former lake and receiving mainly treated wastewater discharges. We carried out a comparative study between Humboldt’s results and the current characteristics of water from these lake remnants analyzed with the same methods that he used. In addition, we assessed several morphometric parameters and performed water quality assessments using modern methods. Changes in water quality characteristics and ionic composition were detected, with Xochimilco being the lake with the highest water quality score and Texcoco and Chalco showing major alterations. The drastic reduction in the area of the remaining water bodies and the modifications in their water quality are discussed.

Authors: N. Gaidhani Sudesh , Viswanth Reddy S. , Ala Srikanth
Published: July 2023

Vasant Kusumakar Ras is an herbo-mineral formulation known for its anti-diabetic activity. Ayurvedic literature describes Vasant Kusumakar Ras
to possess Pramehgana (anti-diabetic), properties. The objective of the current study is to investigate the hypoglycaemic effect of Vasant
Kusumakar Ras in fasted normoglycemic and antihyperglycemic effect in oral glucose induced hyperglycemic rats. The male and female Sprague
Dawley rats were randomized in to 3 groups based on the bodyweight. One group serves as control which was treated with vehicle and other 2
groups of animals were treated with Vasant Kusumakar Ras 25 mg/kg and Glibenclamide 10 mg/kg respectively. The duration of the drug treatment
in hypoglycaemic study was for a period of 7days.The blood glucose levels were analysed in fasted normoglycemic animals on 1st, 3rd&7th day,
prior as well as post 01 hr of drug administration. Similarly,the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was carried out on day 8th by challenging the
same rats with oral glucose (2 g / kg). The drugs were administered simultaneously the blood glucose was analysed at 0th ,1st, 2nd and 3rdHr of post
drug treatment. During the hypoglycaemic study on day 7th, the Vasant Kusumakar Ras treatment signicantly reduced the blood glucose levels
(p<0.05). Similarly, during the OGTT the test drug reversed the hyperglycemia induced by oral glucose at 2nd and 3rd Hr intervals. From this study
it was concluded that the Ayurvedic formulation Vasant Kusumakar Ras possess signicant hypoglycaemic activity in fasted normoglycemic and
antihyperglycemic effect in glucose induced hyperglycemic rats. This may suggest the ethno pharmacological use of Vasant Kusumakar Ras to
reduce the hyperglycaemic episodes in diabetic and hyperglycemic non diabetic subjects.

La tecnica SBAR (Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation) e i suoi derivati ISBAR (Identify, Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation), SBAR-R (Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation-Review/Response) ISBARR (Identify, Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation and Repeat) e ISOBAR (Identify, Situation, Observations, Background, Agreedplan, Read back) rappresentano tecniche di comunicazione interprofessionale e intraprofessionale strutturate. La valutazione dellâ€™uso della tecnica SBAR in ospedale potrebbe essere utile per monitorare il suo impatto sulla sicurezza e sugli esiti dei pazienti. Per quanto ne sappiamo, ad oggi, nessuno strumento in lingua italiana per la valutazione dellâ€™uso della tecnica SBAR in ambito ospedaliero Ã¨ stato riportato in letteratura.

Authors: Martínez González Alicia , Santamaría-Herrera Alba
Published: July 2023

La formación permanente es un derecho y un deber profesional del profesorado de enseñanzas no universitarias. Se sustenta por el Ministerio de Educación y Formación Profesional en colaboración con las consejerías y departamentos de educación de cada comunidad autónoma, centros educativos y centros de formación de profesores. Dado que la competencia matemática se considera clave e instrumental y la necesidad de adaptar la docencia a los nuevos tiempos, este estudio pretende analizar la adecuación de los programas de formación permanente del profesorado de matemáticas de educación primaria. El estudio realiza un análisis descriptivo-comparativo de la oferta matemática anunciada desde los portales web nacionales y regionales centrada en los recursos, soportes digitales, competencia digital en primaria. Hay muchas iniciativas nacionales y regionales relacionadas con la formación de redes de profesorado, de alumnado, de recursos educativos abiertos libres y de distintos cursos. Sin embargo, la oferta educativa publicada por las comunidades autónomas es muy desigual, estando, casi todas, muy centradas en el desarrollo de la competencia digital relegando al resto de competencias. Con las fortalezas y singularidades de cada comunidad autónoma, se propone la página web ideal de formación permanente de profesorado en matemáticas.

Using A Mobile Game to Help Students Learning the Market Economy: Preparation of Camera-Ready Contributions to SCITEPRESS Proceedings
Authors: Ding Jiacheng , Wu Zhouhua
Published: July 2023

The economy is often tedious and complicated for the majority of teenagers from age 13 to 18. The old-fashioned way of using lectures and books to teach could be challenging since the students are only studying an abstract concept and trying to understand pieces of knowledge from graphs and phenomena. After a series of investigations and research, we found that economics teaching and game-based teaching can be very well combined to help the students to learn better. In terms of making the subject more appealing to the students, giving students a platform to apply their knowledge to simulations, and having a deeper understanding of the concepts in the market economy by playing an educational game.  A well-designed economic simulation game can stimulate students' interest, reduce the difficulty of teaching, and help them better understand the tedious content within their textbooks. Thus, we composed an 8 questions survey and collected data from 30 Chinese teenagers that come from different educational backgrounds. However, the survey was only given to Chinese students from different provinces. The total amount of samples may not be conclusive and cohesive. Meanwhile, future studies could give out surveys to students who come from different ethnic backgrounds to better understand how teenagers prefer to study around the globe.
Képeskönyvekkel az érzelmi kompetenciák fejlesztéséért
Authors: Szilvássy Orsolya
Published: July 2023

Az alábbi írás azokhoz az elméleti és kritikai diszkurzusokhoz kapcsolódik, amelyek a képeskönyvbefogadás komplex szerepével foglalkoznak a gyermekkori kompetenciafejlesztés területén. A képeskönyv óvodáskorú gyermekek esetében hatékony didaktikai eszközként működhet, mivel a befogadóik fizikai és szellemi fejlettségének megfelelő módon a gyermeki személyiség egészét átfogó fejlesztési lehetőségek katalizátoraként segíti a nyelvi, a kognitív vagy az érzelmi-szociális képességek kibontakozását, a literáció folyamatát. Itt csak az érzelmi kompetenciák területére fókuszálva azt kísérlem meg felvázolni, milyen lehetőségeket kínálnak bizonyos nem narratív képeskönyvtípusok, az érzelmi kompetencia mely aspektusaira, részterületeire irányul a belőlük nyerhető fejlesztő hatás. Igyekszem olyan példákat hozni, amelyek a hazai könyvpiac minőségileg igen heterogén kínálatából nemcsak didaktikai, de esztétikai szempontoknak is megfelelnek.
