Engaging young learners in synchronous English learning with SDGs lessons
Authors: Chou Chiou-hui , Kao Hung-Hsuan
Published: December 2024

The benefits of technology-enhanced language learning have been advocated by researchers and educators. The use of new technologies can positively contribute to English learners’ learning skills and enhance their overall proficiency. As technology plays an important role in getting access to authentic English-speaking communities and broadening students’ international perspectives, this study set out to explore how to design synchronous English teaching and learning lessons to engage young learners in the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) lessons. In this paper, the researchers explored the topic: How to design bilingual tutoring lessons and materials to engage elementary school students in learning English. Ten lessons, covering ten SDGs, were designed. In each lesson, an English picture storybook was used as a literacy development lesson. Extended activities then covered SDGs discussion. Selected video clips of tutoring sessions were presented. Findings show engaging students’ emotional experiences in English learning and cognitive development is imperative. This study has important implications for theory and practice. From a theoretical perspective, technology resources can indeed enhance authentic English learning. Picture storybooks can increase learners’ learning motivation and facilitate their literacy development. This study suggests that with special attention on comprehensible input, structured task activities and controlled practice activities, the instructors can help young learners comprehend the ideas of SDGs lessons better.
Collaborative Writing Placement: Partnering with Students in the Placement Process
Authors: Hirsch Sarah , Smith Kenny , Sorapure Madeleine
Published: December 2024

This paper will discuss how the Writing Program at the University of California, Santa Barbara “flipped the script” on placement by implementing a model that emphasizes the importance of student voices. Our Collaborative Writing Placement (CWP) shares many similarities with Directed Self-Placement (DSP) in that its instrument consists of survey questions and reflective writing opportunities (Aull, 2021; Gere, Ruggles, et. al., 2013). But it differs from DSP in that students work with writing faculty in choosing the first-year course that is the best fit for them. Through an examination of our initial data, and the first two years of CWP’s implementation, our paper will discuss how the CWP offers another avenue for promoting student agency and generating more equitable placement outcomes.

Comentários sobre o testemunho em “A terceira margem do rio”, de João Guimarães Rosa
Authors: Machado Thalisson de Oliveira
Published: December 2024

“A terceira margem do rio”, do autor João Guimarães Rosa, apresenta uma clara estrutura testemunhal. Apesar dos inúmeros estudos acerca do conto, ainda há aspectos a serem explorados, notadamente em relação ao caráter testemunhal do conto. Uma questão não respondida: quais são os limites do testemunho do personagem-narrador? Em sua maioria, os estudos já existentes buscam analisar o conto a partir de perspectivas relacionadas à loucura ou ao paroxismo do pai canoeiro (Albert, 2003; Goulart, 2013). Mas talvez seja possível e interessante aprofundar uma análise do conto à luz de outras obras do autor cujas estruturas também simulam um testemunho. As obras mencionadas aqui, a modo de comparação, são Grande Sertão: Veredas e “Campo Geral” — textos do famoso ciclo de 1956, portanto anterior às Primeiras Estórias (2019). Não menos importantes para a reflexão sobre o caráter testemunhal da obra são as fontes que aprofundam e problematizam conceitos de testemunho e seu relacionamento intrínseco com a literatura (Derrida, 2015; Benjamin, 1995; Felman, 2014; Sarlo, 2007; Seligmann-Silva et al., 2009). A partir de uma análise com base nessas referências, é possível chegar a algumas considerações. Talvez a principal delas nos diga que o componente metafísico e transcendental do conto (relacionado a seu caráter insólito, paradoxal), diz respeito não tanto à loucura, mas ao próprio testemunho; mais precisamente à sua possibilidade (e, também, à sua impossibilidade) de pôr em palavras acontecimentos catastróficos, sejam coletivos ou individuais.
Quais os principais fatores que transformaram a indústria aeroespacial predominantemente pública para criar um mercado e uma nova economia?
Authors: Frauches Lívia de Paula Miranda Pereira , Do Nascimento Lívia Félix , Corrêa Paula Araújo , Costa Yara Cristine dos Santos , Da Silva Junior Luiz Honorato
Published: December 2024

O homem sempre olhou para o céu e manteve a curiosidade sobre o que poderia existir além de sua perspectiva. Com o avanço tecnológico se iniciou uma corrida espacial que frente aos desafios de financiamento e característica de bem público puro, tratou-se, inicialmente, de uma atividade eminentemente pública. Entretanto, a própria dinâmica converteu tal atividade e atraiu, mais recentemente, capitais privados. O artigo tem como objetivo identificar as principais causas que levaram à transição da atividade aeroespacial de natureza, predominantemente pública para um novo mercado e uma nova economia. Pretende-se ainda apresentar o estágio atual da participação do estado no setor aeroespacial; identificar as ineficiências do setor público; as principais transformações tecnológicas e mercadológicas e o novo papel do estado na regulamentação do setor aeroespacial e seus desafios.
A "anarchia das classes baixas":
Authors: Candido Tyrone Apollo Pontes
Published: December 2024

Este artigo discute a participação popular nas lutas da independência no Ceará, abordando uma plebe heterogênea, de condição livre ou escravizada, composta de indígenas, afrodescendentes e mestiços. Entre as agitações da Revolução do Porto e a Confederação do Equador, procura-se analisar a atuação das camadas subalternas da sociedade, como nos protestos dos cerca-igrejas no Cariri (1821), nos motins indígenas de Viçosa e Maranguape (1822), numa tentativa de levante de negros forros e cativos em Fortaleza (1823) e ainda quando “cabras em armas” se revoltaram contra o recrutamento forçado no Crato durante a mobilização de tropas enviadas ao Piauí e ao Maranhão (1823). O radicalismo variou de uma postura anticonstitucional, em defesa da autoridade do rei e da religião, até um antilusitanismo extremo que desafiou mesmo os mais exaltados projetos patrióticos das classes senhoriais. Mas a todo o momento expressou-se a resistência contra o que se via como a ameaça de escravização.

In this work, 2(3), 9(10), 16(17), 23(24)-tetrakis-[N-methyl-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)oxy) phthalocyaninato]zinc(II) iodide was synthesized and its agregation behavior was investigated in different solvents and concentrations. After the cytotoxic effect of 2(3), 9(10), 16(17), 23(24)-tetrakis-[N-methyl-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)oxy)phthalocyaninato]zinc(II) iodide was tested, the treatment at certain conditions with phthalocyanine was resulted in a significant cell death (around 30%) in AR42J pancreatic cancer cells and Sol8 normal muscle cells but same results were not observed in MDA-MD-231metastatic breast cancer cells.To evaluate mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), Mitotracker Red staining was performed and the treatment at certain conditions with 2(3), 9(10), 16(17), 23(24)-tetrakis-[N-methyl-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)oxy)phthalocyaninato]zinc(II) iodide was resulted in a significant decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential (represented by Δψm) in MDA-MB-231 cells, but the same situation was not observed inother cells. In silicoanalyseswere performed for intracellular target prediction of 2(3), 9(10), 16(17), 23(24)-tetrakis-[N-methyl-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)oxy)phthalocyaninato]zinc(II) iodide and we found that it has inhibitory effects on Sigmar1 protein and Adinopection receptors 1-2 with the lowest binding energiesas–13.07kcal/mol, –10.93kcal/moland –9.49 kcal/mol, respectively. Sigmar1 is an integral protein localized in mitochondrial membraneswhile communication between mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum and Adiponectin receptors are known to be associated with mitochondrial function. These results suggest that 2(3), 9(10), 16(17), 23(24)-tetrakis-[N-methyl-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)oxy)phthalocyaninato]zinc(II) iodide has a cytotoxic potential on cancer cells and inhibited MMP in breast cancer cells only.

İbn Meymûn’un Mucize Görüşü Üzerine Bir İnceleme
Authors: Arslan Hatice
Published: December 2024

Yahudilerin dinî ve milli kimliklerinin oluşumu açısından mucizeler önemli bir işlev görmektedir. Fakat Orta Çağ’da etkili olan felsefi tartışmaların etkisiyle Yahudi âlimler kutsal kitap boyunca anlatılan tabiatüstü olayların imkânını tartışmışlardır. Bu dönemin önde gelen Yahudi cemaat önderlerinden biri olan ve Yahudi teolojisi üzerindeki etkisi tartışılmaz olan İbn Meymûn da birçok eserinde söz konusu meseleye dair fikirlerini beyan etmektedir. O, bir taraftan mucizeyi dinin esaslarından biri olarak nitelerken diğer taraftan bazı kutsal kitap mucizelerini Yahudi geleneğinden farklı yorumlamaktadır. Buradan hareketle İbn Meymûn’un gerçekte hangi düşünceyi savunduğu meselesi birçok araştırmacı tarafından tartışılmaktadır. Türkçe literatürde müstakil olarak çalışılmamış olan İbn Meymûn’un mucize anlayışı bu makalenin konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Öncelikle İbn Meymûn’un mucizelere inanıp inanmadığı meselesi ele alınmakta, daha sonra eserlerinde ortaya koyduğu mucizenin mahiyeti ve ortaya çıkma gayesi üzerinde durulmaktadır. İbn Meymûn’un eserlerinde mucize meselesinin yer aldığı bölümler, çalışmanın ana kaynaklarını oluşturmaktadır. Makalede âlimin mucize hakkındaki görüşleri bir bütün halinde incelenerek konunun açıklığa kavuşturulması amaçlanmaktadır.

A lágerpókertől a vöröscsillagon át az árpádsávos zászlóig – Szimbólumértelmezés a jogi emlékezetben
Authors: Izsák-Somogyi Katalin
Published: December 2024

A tanulmány a szimbólum jogi relevanciáját vizsgálja emlékezetpolitikai aspektusból.
Kiindulópontja szerint ez inkább irodalom- és nyelvelméleti fogalom, mintsem jogi. A szimbólumokkal összefüggő elemzési lehetőséghez minden esetben értelmezési kötelezettség
társul. Az interpretáció mint kognitív folyamat nem különíthető el attól a társadalmi rendszertől, politikai berendezkedéstől, kortól, amelyben az értelmezési folyamat végbemegy.
Ennek eredményeként azt mondhatjuk, hogy a szimbólumok értelmezése specifikus és részben önkényes is lehet.
A magyar jogi emlékezetben vizsgálva a releváns szimbólumokat arra a következtetésre
juthatunk, hogy a XX. század történelmi traumái olyan tapasztalatokat hoztak létre, amelyek a nyelv ismert készletével elmondhatatlanná váltak. Így növekedett a jelképek jelentősége. A tanulmány központi kérdése az, hogy az önkényuralmi rendszerekben eltöltött évtizedek következtében létrejöttek-e olyan szimbólumok, melyek értelmezése minden esetben
ugyanúgy zajlik? Kimondható-e, hogy vannak olyan szimbólumok, amelyek értelmezéséhez érzelmi többlet kapcsolódik? Eme affektív többlet eredményezheti-e azt, hogy az áldozatok védelmét fókuszba helyezve bizonyos szimbólumok használata tiltott lehet?
A szimbólumokkal összefüggő magyar büntetőjogi tényállásokat kifejezetten emlékezetpolitikai szempontból vizsgálva kapunk kérdést arra a válaszra, hogy vajon a jogi emlékezetben megjelenő jelképek értelmezése minden esetben kiszámítható-e vagy sem.
Slovakia-Taiwan Relations: Slovakia's Pragmatic Approach as a Model of Engagement with Taiwan
Authors: Kironska Kristina
Published: December 2024

This article examines the evolution of Slovakia-Taiwan relations, focusing on the early 2020s (specifically 2020–2023), a period marked by a shift toward closer ties. Despite adhering to the One China policy, Slovakia has strengthened its engagement with Taiwan, driven by both regional and domestic factors. Regionally, the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) region’s disillusionment with unmet Chinese economic promises has led to a pivot toward alternative partnerships, including Taiwan. Domestically, Slovakia’s 2020 government shift introduced a more Taiwan-receptive policy, aligning with the EU and NATO’s cautious approach to China. The analysis highlights Slovakia’s adoption of a low-visibility, pragmatic model that contrasts with the high-profile symbolic approaches of fellow CEE ‘vanguard’ states (the most active players in political interactions with Taiwan) like Czechia and Lithuania. Slovakia’s strategy involves pursuing a ‘positive’ agenda with Taiwan with minimal public attention, redirecting criticisms of China to parliamentary channels and conducting symbolic actions vis-à-vis China. While this approach reduces risks of Chinese backlash and minimises domestic politicisation, it also limits public awareness and support. Nonetheless, the Slovakia-Taiwan relationship has seen tangible, durable gains. Slovakia's approach offers a viable blueprint for other states interested in engaging with Taiwan without provoking China.

A pesquisa avalia se essa modificação é compatível com os princípios democráticos e constitucionais do Brasil, analisando sua conformidade com o atual ordenamento jurídico e a sua capacidade de fortalecer a democracia brasileira. Por fim, busca-se entender o grau de evidência da necessidade de ajustes no rol do artigo 60, de modo a aumentar a conexão entre a Carta Magna e os anseios do povo, promovendo, assim, um fortalecimento da participação cidadã no processo legislativo.
Quantifying the impacts of marine aerosols over the southeast Atlantic Ocean using a chemical transport model: implications for aerosol–cloud interactions
Authors: Hossain Mashiat , Garland Rebecca M. , Horowitz Hannah M.
Published: December 2024

Abstract. The southeast Atlantic region, characterized by persistent stratocumulus clouds, has one of the highest uncertainties in aerosol radiative forcing and significant variability across climate models. In this study, we analyze the seasonally varying role of marine aerosol sources and identify key uncertainties in aerosol composition at cloud-relevant altitudes over the southeast Atlantic using the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model. We evaluate simulated aerosol optical depth (AOD) and speciated aerosol concentrations against those collected from ground observations and aircraft campaigns such as LASIC, ORACLES, and CLARIFY, conducted during 2017. The model consistently underestimates AOD relative to AERONET, particularly at remote locations like Ascension Island. However, when compared with aerosol mass concentrations from aircraft campaigns during the biomass burning period, it performs adequately at cloud-relevant altitudes, with a normalized mean bias (NMB) between −3.5 % (CLARIFY) and −7.5 % (ORACLES). At these altitudes, in the model, organic aerosols (63 %) dominate during the biomass burning period, while sulfate (41 %) prevails during austral summer, when dimethylsulfide (DMS) emissions peak in the model. Our findings indicate that marine sulfate can account for up to 69 % of total sulfate during the high-DMS period. Sensitivity analyses indicate that refining DMS emissions and oxidation chemistry may increase sulfate aerosol produced from marine sources, highlighting that there remains large uncertainty as to the role of DMS emissions in the marine boundary layer. Additionally, we find marine primary organic aerosol emissions may substantially increase total organic aerosol concentrations, particularly during austral summer. This study underscores the imperative need to refine marine emissions and their chemical transformations, as aerosols from marine sources are a major component of total aerosols at cloud-relevant altitudes and may impact uncertainties in aerosol radiative forcing over the southeast Atlantic.
Sea-level rise contribution from Ryder Glacier in Northern Greenland varies by an order of magnitude by 2300 depending on future emissions

Published: December 2024

Abstract. Northern Greenland contains some of the ice sheet's last remaining glaciers with floating ice tongues. One of these glaciers is Ryder Glacier, which has been relatively stable in recent decades in contrast to the neighbouring Petermann and C.H. Ostenfeld Glaciers. Previous research suggests that fjord and bedrock topography, rather than atmospheric or ocean temperatures, may be the main factor behind these differences. Understanding Ryder Glacier's future behaviour is important as ice-tongue loss could lead to acceleration and increased mass loss from discharge. In contrast to Petermann and C.H. Ostenfeld Glaciers, where the impact of ice-tongue loss has been established by several studies, no previous research has assessed the risk and consequences of ice-tongue loss at Ryder Glacier. Meanwhile, it is unclear whether Greenland-wide modelling attempts are able to accurately resolve the influence of fjord/bedrock topography and small scale variations in ice dynamics for a glacier like Ryder. To fill these gaps, we here conduct targeted high-resolution modelling to Ryder Glacier until the year 2300. Thereby we aim to reduce uncertainties in sea-level rise projections from this area. We find that mass loss is dominated by discharge under all scenarios until 2100, after which surface mass balance losses take over under a high emissions future, leading to a much higher sea level rise contribution.
Fluorescence spectra of atmospheric aerosols
Authors: Reichardt Jens , Lauermann Felix , Behrendt Oliver
Published: December 2024

Abstract. This study summarizes the results of 14 years of ﬂuorescence measurements with the spectrometric ﬂuorescence and Raman lidar RAMSES at the Lindenberg Meteorological Observatory, Germany. The focus is on ﬁndings that can only be obtained by spectrometric measurements and not with a single discrete ﬂuorescence receiver channel. The measurement parameters that are useful in the spectral analysis are introduced. In particular, this includes the spectrum of the ﬂuorescence capacity, which has proven to be instructive. A new method is described that has been employed to determine the aerosol source regions. It is based on the combination of ensemble back-trajectory calculations with satellite measurements of ﬁres and aerosol plumes. A total of 14 RAMSES measurements are discussed, which represent a selection of the most interesting measurement nights in the years 2020 to 2023. The emphasis is on biomass burning aerosol (BBA) in the free troposphere, but measurements of Saharan dust or boundary-layer aerosol are also provided. Excited at a wavelength of 355 nm, the BBA ﬂuorescence spectrum has a rounded shape with a maximum between about 500 and 550 nm. With height, it becomes increasingly Gaussian, and a shift towards longer wavelengths is generally observed (red shift). However, BBA layers which exhibit an opposite dependence (blue shift) can be found in speciﬁc cases as well. Overall, the spectral ﬂuorescence capacity is high with values up to over 9 × 10−6 nm−1. Fluorescence spectra of Saharan dust, on the other hand, are skewed to short wavelengths. The ﬂuorescence maxima are below 500 nm, and a linear decrease in the spectral backscattering coefﬁcient can be seen at longer wavelengths; the spectral ﬂuorescence capacity is low (< 1 × 10−6 nm−1). Our statistical analyses show that the correlations between the characteristics of the ﬂuorescence spectra and other parameters are relatively weak. Of the atmospheric state variables, the ambient temperature correlates best, and of the elastic-optical particle properties it is the particle depolarization ratio. In addition, indications are found for both BBA and Saharan dust that the spectral shape is inﬂuenced not only by the type but also by the source region of the aerosols, which would allow a more accurate aerosol typing if further substantiated. The importance of spectral ﬂuorescence measurements for investigations of aerosol-cloud interaction is also highlighted. Measurement examples reveal cirrus nucleation at low supersaturation on contact with an optically extremely thin BBA ﬁlament at the tropopause, and provide the clearest indication to date of interaction, rather than coexistence, between clouds with supercooled water droplets and BBA using lidar. This groundbreaking study opens up a new ﬁeld in atmospheric and aerosol research with exciting prospects for future studies, some of which will be presented.

It is a key variable in the context of climate change because of its direct feedback to the climate system, while at the same time being very sensitive to climate change. Long-term spatial data on snow cover and snow water equivalent are scarce, due to the lack of satellite data or forcing data to run land surface models back in time. This study presents an R package, SnowQM, designed to correct for the bias in long-term spatial snow water equivalent data compared to a shorter-term and more accurate dataset, using the more accurate data to calibrate the correction. The bias-correction is based on the widely applied quantile mapping approach. A new method of spatial and temporal grouping of the data points is used to calculate the quantile distributions for each pixel. The main functions of the package are written in C++ to achieve high performance. Parallel computing is implemented in the C++ part of the code. In a case study over Switzerland, where a 60-year snow water equivalent climatology is produced at a resolution of 1 d and 1 km, SnowQM reduces the bias in snow water equivalent from −9 to −2 mm in winter and from −41 to −2 mm in spring. We show that the C++ implementation notably outperforms simple R implementation. The limitations of the quantile mapping approach for snow, such as snow creation, are discussed. The proposed spatial data grouping improves the correction in homogeneous terrain, which opens the way for further use with other variables.

La gestión de residuos alimenticios es un reto global con implicaciones sociales, económicas y ambientales. La optimización de rutas de recolección es una estrategia clave para mejorar la eficiencia en su manejo. El presente estudio tiene como objetivo analizar la eficiencia en la recolección de residuos alimenticios en establecimientos de Riobamba, Ecuador, evaluando el impacto en la reducción de tiempos y distancias recorridas a través del método de optimización de rutas Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP), con miras a fomentar una gestión de residuos más sostenible y alineada con los principios de la economía circular. Se evaluó un total de 26 establecimientos analizando la ruta original (RO) y tres rutas optimizadas: más corta (RMC), más rápida (RMR) y más rápida con tráfico (RMRT), mediante un enfoque cuantitativo y pruebas estadísticas no paramétricas (Shapiro-Wilk, Levene, Kruskal-Wallis y post-hoc de Dunn) usando el software R. Los resultados mostraron diferencias significativas en las medianas de los tiempos (chi-cuadrado=11.1308, p=0.01104), y el análisis post-hoc de Dunn reveló que la RO difiere significativamente de las rutas optimizadas (RMC: p = 0.0034; RMR: p = 0.002210; RMRT: p = 0.046415). Los resultados demostraron que la implementación del método VRP optimizó notablemente las rutas, mejorando la eficiencia operativa y reduciendo la huella ambiental, destacando su potencial como herramienta para la gestión sostenible de residuos.

En el presente trabajo se analizan los factores que determinan el consumo de productos eco-friendly en la generación Z, utilizando la teoría del comportamiento planificado. A diferencia de la teoría económica ortodoxa, que enfatiza la maximización del bienestar individual dentro de restricciones presupuestarias, la teoría del comportamiento planificado considera dimensiones adicionales como la actitud, la norma subjetiva, el control conductual percibido y la obligación moral. La recolección de la información se llevó a cabo mediante el diseño y aplicación de un instrumento validado, a una muestra de estudiantes universitarios entre 18 y 25 años que residen en la Zona Metropolitana La Laguna. El análisis de los datos se realizó utilizando un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales y mínimos cuadrados parciales. Los resultados confirman que los determinantes de la Teoría del Comportamiento Planificado son relevantes para la intención de compra de productos eco-friendly y se concluye que la norma subjetiva no es una variable que determina dicha intención de compra. Por lo tanto, es relevante seguir aportando a la evidencia empírica del modelo.

O artigo apresenta uma pesquisa de iniciação científica que teve por objetivo investigar a concepção de alfabetização nos currículos dos cursos de Pedagogia, no Paraná, especialmente a concepção epistemológica proeminente. Problematiza-se: Qual base epistemológica é dominante nos currículos de Pedagogia nas disciplinas que tratam da alfabetização? Para tanto, foi utilizada a pesquisa exploratória qualitativa, tendo como procedimentos metodológicos a pesquisa bibliográfica e a pesquisa documental. A pesquisa bibliográfica é ancorada em autores que tratam da alfabetização e do currículo como, por exemplo, Smolka (2003), Ferreiro (1999), Ferreiro e Palacio (1990), Soares (2010). A pesquisa documental, por sua vez, teve como fonte os currículos dos cursos de Pedagogia presencial das Instituições de Ensino Superior públicas do estado do Paraná. A pesquisa mapeou a concepção de alfabetização mais presente nos respectivos cursos e as implicações na formação inicial docente, apontando que o construtivismo, neste caso a teoria cognitivista piagetiana, é proeminente.

We report new V, Ni, S, and Hg data for four condensates and seven crude oils from Central Northern and Eastern Bulgaria. The samples have relatively low trace metal contents compared with other published crude oils and condensates. These properties facilitate their production and reduce environmental concerns for trace metal release from the processed products. Low S contents at moderate Ni/V ratios for all oils from Central Northern Bulgaria suggest origin from clastic source rocks deposited in mildly reducing conditions. In contrast, the Tyulenovo oil from Eastern Bulgaria has high Ni/V ratios at low S contents, indicating possible origin from lacustrine source rocks.

Published: December 2024

The Turonian concretionary phosphate-bearing bed outcropping NE of Srednya village consists of phosphate concretions and abundant phosphatized fauna, showing typical features of condensation and syn-sedimentary reworking. Key ammonite taxa indicate mixing of Collignoniceras woollgari and Subprionocyclus neptuni zones. The characteristics of burrows in the bed suggest an important role of biological activity for the formation of the concretions. The chemical composition of the phosphate-bearing bed is compared to the average phosphorite and non-phosphatized limestones and sandstones from the studied section. Authigenic and terrigenous chemical constituents are identified, and they correspond well to the authigenic and terrigenous fractions in the sediments. The PAAS-normalized patterns of the deposits reflect their high terrigenous content and imply possible post-depositional alteration of the primary seawater REY signal.

The main disadvantage of garden tillage machines is the impossibility of cultivating tree trunk strips – by passing tree trunks deviated from a row, the reason for which is the inability to fix the piston of the hydraulic cylinder of the control system of the working body in intermediate positions. In this regard, in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawback, a calculation diagram was drawn up and a functional relationship was derived between the diameter of the trunk, the deviation of the tree from the axis of the row, the width of the protective zone and the pitch of the hydraulic cylinder piston, as well as the angle of rotation of the working element/part. The intervals of changes in these quantities are determined, according to which it is necessary to fix the hydraulic cylinder piston in intermediate positions. It was found out that for precise interaction between the probe and the working organ, it is necessary to adjust the signal moment according to the intermediate positions of the hydraulic cylinder, based on the following values Si = 3.55-11.5 cm, φi = 9.970 – 30.60: ensuring the condition bi+fi+0.5(di+dա)≤Lmax.

The present study is aimed at establishing morphological changes in the placenta of cows with the normal course of calving and the retention of the placenta, the task was to establish histopathology and immunolocalization of matrix metalloproteinases. Placenta samples were taken from 10 cows, which were divided into two groups, ag (n=5) cows from whom placentas were taken during normal course of calving, and bg (n=5) cows from whom placentas were obtained at postpartum retention. In pathological parturition accompanied by the retention of placenta, hyperplasia of the uterine crypts was established, areas of hemorrhage, necrosis, inflammation and calcification were identified. In the stroma of the villi of the allantochorion an increase in the number of collagen fibers and an increase in the number of fibroblasts characterized by larger sizes than in normal parturition were observed. The reduced activity of matrix metalloproteinases in cows with the placental retention indicates degradation of the extracellular matrix of the maternal part of the placenta and may subsequently provoke reproductive pathology in puerpera, while the lack of expression of the matrix metalloproteinases in the fetal part of the placenta may be a predictive marker of neonatal diseases of newborns.

Published: December 2024

Introduction:
Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is a minimally invasive surgical approach for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) that aims to reduce morbidity and improve patients' quality of life without compromising oncological outcomes. In this study, we investigate the use of TORS in the management of OPSCC and compare it with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT), and open surgery.
Method:
We conducted a systematic review of systematic reviews using PubMed, Cochrane databases, and grey literature. We also searched the reference lists of these articles. The keywords used were "trans-oral robotic surgery" OR "TORS" AND "oropharynx" OR "oropharyngeal cancer". The inclusion criteria were systematic reviews of human studies that focused on patients diagnosed with OPSCC. We excluded non-English articles without translations and articles that did not meet the inclusion criteria.
Result:
Our review included a total of 10 studies, comprising 16,917 patients. TORS was found to have better oncological outcomes than other modalities, and was associated with similar overall survival and disease-free survival rates as IMRT and CCRT. Additionally, TORS was associated with less postoperative bleeding than open surgery.
Conclusion:
Our findings suggest that TORS is a safe and effective treatment option for OPSCC. It may be a good option for patients seeking a minimally invasive approach with less postoperative bleeding.
