Published: July 2023

Media helps learn so that the material or information conveyed is more precise and effective, and efficient learning is achieved so that learning objectives are achieved. Media is beneficial as a tool and guide for teachers to describe learning materials systematically to deliver teaching materials more creatively and enthusiastically. In addition, the media helps increase the interest and motivation of students so that students can stimulate and receive material well and quickly understand it. And can increase student creativity so that students are active and promptly digest the learning delivered. Effective learning will require a conducive classroom atmosphere to achieve learning objectives. Using such a method, students only focus on listening to the teacher, quickly feeling bored. By applying the capcut application, teachers can be helped both in explaining the material and by making students not forget to study at home.

Authors: Solopova Oksana Vyacheslavovna , Kozopolianskaia-Soloveva Aleksandra Vadimovna
Published: July 2023

The article deals with the main directions of cooperation in the sphere of education within the framework of the Union State. The novelty of the study lies in the fact that for the first time it formulates and introduces the authors’ research position, clearly outlines the boundaries separating the processes which take place within the Union State, and traces the development of the Russian-Belarusian interaction. In the context of this concept the authors identify and formulate the main stages of development of these processes and systematize the main trends of formation of the normative-legal base of the common educational space and measures for its practical implementation. They examine the interaction between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus within the Union State framework in the general context of the Union State building. The following stages are outlined: the preliminary stage from 1995 through 1999 included the maintenance of equal rights of citizens at the level of interstate relations and in the beginning of the Union State building; the second stage from 1999 through 2012 provided the normative-legal base of the educational space of the Union State and implementation of the existing norms; the third stage from 2012 through 2018 was characterized by gradual growth of attention of the governing bodies of the Union State to the problems of humanitarian cooperation, adaptation of the normative-legal acts to the actual changes in the sphere of education of the two countries; the fourth stage from 2018 until now is regarded as a high time for formation of a single space of education of the Union State for further development of integration. The article categorizes and characterizes the actions taken by the bodies of the Union State, educational institutions and professional circles in order to develop cooperation in the field of education. The study identifies the role of diaspora public organizations in the processes under consideration. The authors conclude about the special role of educational and scientific organizations, professional associations and civil society institutions of the two countries in the development of a unified educational space.
FORMER PALACE VILLAGES OF MOSCOW AND OTHER UYEZDS OF CENTRAL RUSSIA: THE CURRENT SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC CONDITION
Authors: Kanishchev Valery Vladimirovich
Published: July 2023

When setting the goal and objectives of this article, the author proceeded from the fact that the well-studied early history of the palace settlements (dvortsovoe settlements) of Moscow uyezd and other central uyezds of the Russian State is very rarely integrated into the study of their current state, largely formed under the influence of their past as palace settlements. The sources for the article comprise numerous reference books on the history of the former palace estates, as well as online resources based on official primary sources on the current state of particular settlements. The author has identified the main socio-demographic characteristics of 162 out of the 178 settlements included in the List of palace volosts and villages for 1705. The settlements whose historical fate has not been identified are either those whose names have changed beyond recognition or the ones that have completely melted into other settlements. A quantitative analysis of various administrative and socio-demographic parameters of the former palace villages, first of all, made it possible to trace changes in the settlement status of the former palace villages of Central Russia in the 18th - early 21st centuries and to reveal isolated cases of the complete disappearance of the former palace settlements. The analysis of the changes in the administrative status of the former palace villages has shown that the potential given to them when they were founded, was eventually instrumental in the transformation of the two-thirds of them into local administrative centers. The article interprets population growth in 70% of studied palace settlements, which continued up to the end of the 20th century, as an indicator of their successful demographic development. A study of the socio-economic development of the palace villages led to the conclusion that many of them in the 18th-19th centuries became and now remain local commercial, industrial and socio-cultural centers. In conclusion, the article states that a number of long-term historical, historical-geographical, historical-cultural factors contributed to successful, and unparalleled at present, socio-demographic development of almost one and a half hundred former palace settlements. This relative success manifested itself against the backdrop of the withering of thousands of Russian rural settlements.
Esclerosis múltiple: el rol de los agentes neuroprotectores en la progresión y nuevos estudios sobre remielinización
Authors: Berrezueta-Sigüenza Steven José , Ochoa-Bravo Andrea Catalina
Published: July 2023

La esclerosis múltiple (EM) es una enfermedad autoinmune crónica del sistema nervioso central que se manifiesta mediante la desmielinización y neurodegeneración. A pesar de los avances significativos en el tratamiento, sigue siendo una causa principal de discapacidad en adultos jóvenes.

Esta revisión se enfoca en investigar el papel emergente de los agentes neuroprotectores en la progresión de la EM y examinar las estrategias de remielinización en desarrollo.

Metodología: Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica extensa centrada en la esclerosis múltiple y el uso de agentes neuroprotectores y estrategias de remielinización.

Los agentes neuroprotectores, como la ocrelizumab, el natalizumab y el fingolimod, demuestran potencial para limitar la neurodegeneración y posiblemente influir en la progresión de la enfermedad. Por otra parte, las terapias de remielinización, que tienen como objetivo reparar la mielina dañada, incluyendo el anticuerpo anti-LINGO-1, la clemastina, y la biotina de alta dosis, están mostrando resultados prometedores en los ensayos preclínicos y clínicos.

A pesar de los desafíos significativos, incluyendo la necesidad de biomarcadores más efectivos y de comprender mejor la biología de la remielinización, los avances en este campo son alentadores. Las terapias combinadas que incorporan agentes inmunomoduladores, neuroprotectores y remielinizantes podrían convertirse en un enfoque estándar para el tratamiento de la EM en el futuro, mejorando considerablemente la calidad de vida de los pacientes con EM.

Authors: Jalil-Delgado Rubén Ricardo , Lopez-Moreira Quinche Yamile , Veliz Castro Teresa Isabel
Published: July 2023

La sepsis neonatal, se considera como la presencia de un síndrome sistemático, provocado por la invasión y proliferación de microorganismos patógenos en el recién nacido, dentro de los primeros 28 días de nacido, o circunstancias mayores posterior a esta edad en neonatos de bajo peso al nacer. El objetivo principal del presente estudio fue determinar la prevalencia de la sepsis neonatal por Streptococcus agalactiae. Este estudio tuvo un diseño documental, basándose en la recopilación de datos mediante artículos científicos. Los hallazgos principales del estudio fueron que, en países como Ecuador registran una tasa de prevalencia baja con un 2.2%, por lo tanto, las pruebas de laboratorio como la procalcitonina, reacción de la cadena polimerasa e interleucina-6 son consideradas como marcadores de infección bacteriana, mientras que la prueba principal a considerar en el diagnóstico de sepsis neonatal son los cultivos que pese a su duración brindan un resultado confiable. Para finalizar, se determinó que, los diferentes factores de riesgo que provocan sepsis neonatal sobresalen la corioamnionitis o el bajo peso al nacer, las pruebas de laboratorio en el diagnóstico microbiológico son de vital importancia pues, los marcadores bioquímicos empleados en el diagnóstico de este síndrome suelen provocar resultados falsos negativos ya que tienen una limitada sensibilidad y especificidad.

Authors: Fitrya Fitrya , Muharni Muharni , Wahyuni Fatma Sri , Amriani Annisa
Published: July 2023

Context: The flavonoid and phenolic compounds found in Artocarpus altilis have made their popularity. This plant has been used as a traditional medicine in Indonesia for various diseases. Aims: To evaluate the toxic concentration of the A. altilis extract and to investigate the capacity of the extract to inhibit inflammation against the macrophage cell line RAW 264.7, which has been induced with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Methods: The MTT assay was used to determine the level of toxicity shown by the extract. The qRT-PCR method was used to examine the anti-inflammatory activity of the sample by comparing the relative expression levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10 mRNA in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells to those of dexamethasone, which served as the control. Results: The results of the test for toxicity indicated that the extract is safe. In RAW 264.7 cells that had been stimulated with LPS, we observed that the addition of A. altilis leaf extract drastically reduced the expression of IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA while simultaneously increasing the production of IL-10. Conclusions: The ethanol extract of A. altilis leaf was nontoxic and exhibited anti-inflammatory activity on LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells.

Authors: Alev Ugur , Mutlu Ilven
Published: July 2023

In this study, biodegradable Zn-Mn-Mg alloy specimens were fabricated for temporary implant applications. Zn alloy specimens were produced by powder metallurgy methods. Chemical and mechanical properties of the specimens were studied. Zn is an alternative to the magnesium (Mg) and iron (Fe) as a biodegradable metal. Zn can have suitable biodegradation rate than the Mg or iron (Fe). Recent studies confirm that the Zn is nontoxic and can provide proper osseointegration. In general, Zn alloys have low melting temperature, machinability, and low oxygen reactivity. Electrochemical corrosion performance of the Zn-Mn-Mg alloys was tested in simulated body fluid. Biodegradation rate of the Zn-Mn-Mg alloys was investigated by using weight loss and metal ion release study. Zn ion release amounts were lower than the upper limit for the humans. Effect of the Mn and Mg contents on the Zn alloy was studied. Electrochemical corrosion tests of the Zn-Mn-Mg alloys showed that the corrosion rate increased from 0.30 to 0.66 mm/year by increasing Mg content of the alloy from 1.0 to 10.0 %.  Zn ion release amounts were about 177-211 ppm which were much lower than the upper toxic limit for the humans of about 40 mg/day.
Target Tracking Based on Radon Transform Data Appearance Modeling
Authors: Yang Lian
Published: July 2023

This article mainly focuses on an important challenge in target tracking in complex environments the real-time performance of algorithm operation. A new target appearance model based on Radon transform data is studied, and it is introduced into the correlation filtering framework for filtering template training. A fast tracking algorithm and target scale update scheme based on correlation filtering are proposed. The experimental results show that the tracking algorithm proposed in this paper has better robustness and real-time performance compared to current mainstream tracking algorithms, providing a new technical approach for research related to object detection and tracking. The tracking algorithm proposed in this article can also be seen as a framework, where the projected object can not only be the grayscale of the original pixel, but also include multi-channel color values, HOG, and other attributes.

Prospects of Integrated Deterrence for Pakistan Amid Conventional Asymmetry in South Asia
Authors: Hussain Nabeel , Malik Salma
Published: July 2023

This paper attempts to illustrate the relevance and importance of integrated deterrence in one of the most unpredictable regions of the world where India and Pakistan, have inched closer to crossing the nuclear threshold amid crises. Conventional asymmetry, offensive doctrines and the changing character of war impact South Asia's strategic stability. India’s existing doctrinal thinking, technological developments in the military domain and its temptation for a pre-emptive military strike demands a corresponding review of Pakistan’s doctrinal thinking. In this regard, Pakistan's shift towards integrating nuclear and conventional forces, effective diplomacy, and a quest for strong economy are integral for eradicating the probability of limited war in the region. The future of South Asian strategic stability lies in the practical implementation and adaptation of integrated deterrence by Pakistan into its doctrinal thinking and force posture, as this policy shift will help Pakistan develop a more cohesive, robust, and effective conventional response against offensive Indian military posturing.
Wigry Lake: The Cradle of Polish Hydrobiology – A Century of Limnological Exploration
Authors: Górniak Andrzej , Więcko Adam
Published: July 2023

Wigry Lake, located in North-Eastern (NE) Poland, has a century-old history of limnological exploration and is an excellent place to assess the impact of catchment changes caused by urbanization on the functioning of a large, polymictic, and flow-through lake. The history of prewar limnological research, the course of hydrochemical effects of urbanization in the river flowing into the lake since the 1970s, and long-term changes in the functioning of Wigry Lake are presented. The collected archival and current results indicate that the hydrochemical type of the lake’s waters remained the same, and the inflow of river waters from the urban catchment strongly transformed the lake bay receiving the load. In the remaining part of the lake, the eutrophication load caused smaller changes because of a gradual reduction in the inflow of nutrients. Consequently, there was an increase in vertical differentiation of oxygen, algal biomass, and their structure. A significant share of supplying the lake with groundwater and the natural in-lake system of biotic and chemical regulations significantly reduced the effects of the eutrophication process. The existing lake biodiversity has been maintained, constituting a valuable element of the European NATURA 2000 system.
Temperature Regime, Dynamics and Water Balance of Two Crater Lakes in the Nevado de Toluca Volcano, Mexico

Published: July 2023

Volcanic lakes are ecosystems in which thermodynamic processes have a complex relationship with atmospheric variables. This study presents the results of an analysis of the thermal regime and dynamics of two high-altitude tropical lakes located in the crater of the Nevado de Toluca volcano in Mexico, at an altitude of more than 2200 m above sea level. Joint meteorological and hydrological measurements taken in two adjacent lakes revealed strong diurnal fluctuations in water temperature, which are caused by wind-induced internal gravity waves and free seiches oscillations. During the daytime, heating occurs in the near-surface layer of the lakes, which creates a thermocline at a depth of 2–3 m, but it is washed out at night. The heat penetration into the lakes is significantly different due to differences in water transparency and algae density, despite the small distance of only 200 m between the lakes separated by a 100-m high lava dome. Temperature and level fluctuations were analyzed using spectral analysis. The numerical model used in Lake El Sol allowed for the first-ever evaluation of the circulation and the impact of wind circulation regimes on lake-level fluctuations. Analyzing such physical processes is crucial in assessing the chemical and biological processes occurring in this reservoir. Field measurements uncovered unexpected temperature changes near the lake bottom, along with heat exchange between the bottom water layer and bottom sediments (during winter, sediments emit heat to the water column). The estimated heat fluxes through the lake bottom were less than 0.3 W/m2 during winter and less than 0.1 W/m2 for the rest of the year.

Management of Hajj Funds in Sukuk Investment from an Islamic Economic Perspective
Authors: Maulana M. Rifka , Mawadah Sokhikhatul
Published: July 2023

One of the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic is the cancellation of Hajj departures in Indonesia in 2020, based on the Decree of the Minister of Religion (KMA) Number 494 of 2020. The delay in the departure of the Hajj even though the more pilgrims register for Hajj, the more funds will be received. Banks cannot manage that much haj funds, so they are stored in state sukuk. Hajj funds are managed in State Sharia Securities (SBSN) or State Sukuk by the Ministry of Religion through the Hajj Management Financial Management Agency (BPKH). How is the management of Hajj funds on state sukuk, is it effective or not. This research is a qualitative research with literature study. The results of this study are that the mechanism for managing Hajj funds begins with the way pilgrims register and pay. After the funds have been collected, the BPKH manages the money through each congregation's account at the bank. Fund management exists in several placements, one of which is sukuk. Placement in this sukuk is good but not optimal when viewed from the yields obtained, but when viewed from the risks faced, this sukuk investment is very effective. Research can be used as a reference source for parties who need information about the management of Hajj funds, especially for pilgrims who are waiting for the pilgrimage to depart.

Spinal Nerve Sheath Myxoma
Authors:   Department of Neurosurgery, Mustapha PACHA Hospital Algiers, Algeria
Published: July 2023

Nerve sheath myxoma (NSM) is a rare myxoid form of schwannoma, which is a benign tumor that usually grows in the same place. They usually arise from small cutaneous nerves in the head, neck, and extremities, but exceptionally, they have also been reported to develop in the spinal canal. Here we describe a case of spinal NSM. The patient was a 4-month-old male who presented with incomplete tetra paresis. Spine magnetic resonance imaging showed a well-demarcated small intradural extramedullary mass at the T10-L1 level. The tumor has typical histological features of myxoid type NSM with myxoid lobules that are separated by fibrous septa or bands of more compact cellular area. Nerve sheath myxomas should be included in the differential diagnosis of spinal canal tumors. Ultrastructural observation of tumor cefis with perineurial, fibroblast-like, and Schwann differentiation suggests an origin from nerve sheath precursor cefis.

The lack of character education will lead to a moral crisis that will have a negative impact on society. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach to the type of library research. The data collection technique is by collecting data and related sources from books, written materials and references that are relevant to the research being carried out. The result of this study is that providing moral education for students can change the behavior of students, so that when they are adults they have responsibility, respect each other, and are able to face the challenges of the rapidly changing times. The development of the times, family, peers, school environment, and social environment also have a major impact on students' moral damage so that character education can be a solution to these problems.
Echoes of the Activities of the Armenian National Committee Dedicated to the 100th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide in Tehran’s Daily Newspaper “Alik”
Authors: Sharoyan Elen

Key words: Armenian Genocide, Armenian National Committee, Diaspora, Alik newspaper, demand

The international recognition of the Armenian Genocide has always been at the center of the attention among the Armenians of the Diaspora, a vivid proof of which is the activity of the Armenian National Committee. On the eve of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, the activities of the Armenian National Committees attracted the attention of the Armenian press of the Diaspora: e.g. the Armenian press of the countries of the Middle East, including the daily newspaper “Alik” published in the capital of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The daily regularly discusses the demands of Armenians around the world: numerous and diverse publications of the newspaper have a national-ideological orientation and are aimed at the legitimacy of the Armenian demands.
The newspaper “Alik” is not limited to providing information about specific activities of the committee, so it often expresses its opinion and attitude towards the committee initiatives. “Alik” covers the activities of the committee with extensive and diverse publications, which is very important in terms of the unity and consolidation of all Armenians. The newspaper emphasizes the pan-Armenian structure of the Armenian National Committee and the importance of its activities in the fate of the Armenian people within the Armenia-Artsakh-Diaspora trinity, as well as in the discussion, recognition and approval of the Armenian Genocide.
The Complexity of Measuring the Effectiveness of Employment Regulation in Terms of Beneficiary Expectations

Key words: employment, efficiency, beneficiaries, beneficiary expectations, labor market flexibility, talent/brain utilization efficiency

Assessing the effectiveness of employment regulation is a difficult task, especially when it refers to the expectations of beneficiaries. Assessing the effectiveness of employment regulation within the expectations of beneficiaries can be difficult for several reasons. First, you need to understand what each beneficiary understands or expects by efficiency. There are many stakeholders involved in employment regulation, including employers, employees, government agencies, etc. Each interested party may have different expectations and goals from regulation, which makes it difficult to assess the effectiveness of regulation for all.
Data on the impact of employment regulation may be limited, especially in the short term. It may take time to see the full effect of regulation, and it may be difficult to separate the effect of regulation from other factors that can make it difficult to accurately assess effectiveness. Employment regulation can also have undesirable consequences that are difficult to predict or measure. For example, regulating the protection of workers’ rights can lead to higher costs for employers, which can lead to a reduction in hiring or a decrease in employment opportunities. Assessing the effectiveness of employment regulation may be complicated by political considerations. Political leaders may have different priorities.
To address these challenges, it is necessary to consider multiple perspectives and data sources when evaluating the effectiveness of employment regulation. The clear criteria and a starting point for comparison should be established. Beneficiaries should be involved in the evaluation process to ensure that their expectations are being met. In addition, a long-term monitoring should be conducted to track the impact of the regulation over time.
The Problem of Ethnic Self-Consciousness in the Crisis and Post-Changing Conditions of Society

The situation formed in our society after the war and the epidemic, the socio-economic, financial, informational, and environmental rapid changes lead to a change in ethnic self-consciousness. It is also necessary to add the processes of transformation and globalization of ethno-cultural values in the current period, because they also play a major role in shaping the ethnic self-consciousness of the younger generation.
The established realities necessarily predetermine a person’s self-consciousness and, shaped under their influence, realized by a person, and manifested in crisis and stressful situations in accordance with the characteristic individual reactions.
The ethnic meaning emerges in the space of consciousness and self-consciousness, because in order to gain truth, a person does not directly refer to the objects of the ethnic world, but to their meanings, ideas about them. And in this situation, a person's cognitive ideas about the characteristics of his/her own group, as well as self-consciousness as a member based on his/her ethnodifferentiating characteristics and affective experiences, are very important. These ideas include a person’s sense of belonging to the group, an assessment of his or her personal qualities, and an attitude toward membership, all of which are used to determine the types of behavioral responses to a crisis under changing conditions. Currently, the study of ethnic self-consciousness conceals new possibilities for explaining the objectively existing relationship of the individual with the outside world. After all, it is the ethnicity that in the conditions of the current crisis is recognized by the scientists as a historically relevant “reference point” of human behavior, while ethnology is perecived as a basic science in the methodology of analysis and forecasting of this behavior. It must be acknowledged that the time has come for a global reevaluation of this complex psychological phenomenon regarding the realization of the world’s true multi-ethnicity, the idea of forming a world community and planetary thinking. Under these circumstances, it is increasingly important to realize the ongoing changes in the ethnic self-consciousness of an individual in a multicultural world.
Coding Application

Key words: message code, coding equivalence, subset code, discrete optimization problem, set partitioning, knapsack problem, variant observation algorithm

The work is devoted to the development of the algorithm for observing all subsets of the set.
For that purpose, coding for subsets of the set is considered, in such a way as to create a 1-1 correspondence between the set of subsets of the set and the set of codes.
A convenient arrangement of the observation of all those codes allows the observation of all subsets of the set in a convenient way.
Subsets of a set are coded in the binary number system (with binary numbers). The problem of considering subsets of a set arises when solving the knapsack problem, set partitioning problems, and other problems.
To the mentioned general problems are included a number of specific problems arising in many fields.
In the work, an algorithm for observing all subsets of the set is developed, which is suitable for solving all the mentioned problems.
The developed algorithm can be applied to the optimal solution of non-large NP-complete problems. All the known optimal solution algorithms for solving large-scale problems run in practically unacceptable time (have very long execution time). As a consequence, for the solution of large NP-complete problems, approximate algorithms with polynomial time complexity are developed, by means of which approximate solutions of the problem are obtained.
On a Method of Solving the Thermal Conductivity Equation of an Inhomogeneous Isotropic Body

Classical problems in various formulations have been solved by many authors (Cauchy, Dirichle, Neumann and others) for isotropic homogeneous bodies in the theory of elasticity. Such boundary value problems have been reduced to solving differential equations with constant coefficients [1-3; 5].
The paper considers the problem of thermal conduction of an inhomogeneous isotropic body, which leads to the solution of a second-order partial differential equation with variable coefficients (1.3). With sufficient smoothness of the variable coefficients, through transformations, as well as the characteristic equation, this second-order differential equation in a given region can be reduced to one of the following forms; elliptic, hyperbolic and parabolic. Here, the boundary value problem is reduced to solving a second order differential equation with variable parabolic coefficients.
A small physical parameter is introduced, and a recurrent sequence of boundary value problems for the Cauchy boundary value problem is obtained in the article. When solving these boundary value problems, the general solution is represented as a series by formula (2.2) and under certain conditions depending on δ and σ the convergence of the series is proved and the solution is reduced to (5.4). In case of varying the inhomogeneity function f (x,y,z), a small physical parameter δ and a constant σ, a set of inhomogeneous isotropic bodies is obtained, the results of which will be compared with the results of homogeneous isotrpic bodies.
