Effect of Preksha Meditation on efficiency of Respiration- A review
Authors: Paikaray Sujata , Kar Anukul Chandra , Nathani Neeru
Published: June 2021

Our body requires oxygen for its activities and the oxygen is supplied to our body through the respiratory system. It is important to increase the efficiency of respiratory system to increase the sustainable supply of oxygen to the body. Preksha Meditation is a procedure by which one can know and observe the main characteristics of consciousness. Covered consciousness looses its capacity to observe. To awaken spiritual consciousness, one should start its study from breathing. The main aims of Preskha Meditation are purity of mind, search for the truth, to experience independent power of consciousness and finally to develop a complete personality. Shvasa Preksha is one art of Preksha Meditation in which the movement of breathing is observed. It is done by two methods i.e. Dirgha Shvasa Preksha (Slow and deep breathing) and Samvriti Shvasa Preskha (Alternate breathing). Both the procedure have effect on brain particularly on respiratory center in medulla oblongata and normal breathing rate also slows down resulting in improvement of respiration efficiency. Anger and anxiety get reduced as a result of slow breathing rate. This helps in reducing the energy loss, concentration improves, which results in better efficiency.
Adolescence, corps et utopie dans Fish Tank d’Andrea Arnold
Authors: SÁNCHEZ Sonia
Published: June 2021

This article seeks to discover the relationships between adolescence and utopias in the film Fish Tank by British director Andrea Arnold, based on the fact that adolescence is a kind of "horizon of dreams" that galvanizes the hope to build other forms of life and thought. We are particularly interested in utopias fed by heroin, the most important of which is dance. In this sense, the analysis ventures to note that the body becomes the engine of the struggle to emancipate itself from the universe of adults. Also, our reading of the film attempts to establish to what point these utopias build the bases of a thought of emancipation. Although the film does not directly address the subject of utopias, several of the narrative and aesthetic elements evoke the question of ideals in adolescence, as well as the importance of these imaginaries for the projection of the future and to overcome the adversities experienced in adolescence.

This article examines the notion of a “situated utopia”. By relying on educational devices in an order/demand context, on questions of agricultural reterritorialization and/or weak economies, primarily in a peri-metropolitan and rural context, the authors attempt to show how this notion may create renewed perspectives for the theories and practices of utopia. After having defined the notion of « situated utopia » which draws on pragmatist approaches and action research, the article enters into educational project devices in participatory situations. This local, collective project wants to provide leverage for thoughts of a "situated utopia", which is to say an utopia achievable in the here and now, mainly deployed by people directly involved and in close connection with local resources (resources being understood in a very broad sense; aligned with social, cultural, economic, technical, landscape aspects, etc.). The authors, all three of whom are professors, thus identify the main features of this “situated utopia” by examining how it may call into question certain entrenched principles of our architectural and urban project, and help us rethink the collective fabrication of the city and the territory.

Effects of planting time on phenology of five strawberry genotypes Sweet Charlie, Festival,Camarosa, FA 008, and BARI strawberry-1 were evaluated at Bangladesh Agricultural ResearchInstitute in two consecutive years 2009-2010 and 2010-2011. Sweet Charlie took the shorter time tobegin flowering, followed by BARI Strawberry-1 and Festival when planted in 1st October. GenotypeFA 008 took longer time to flower when planted in 1st December. Days to flowering of all the varietieswas found to decrease with the increase in air temperature. Regardless of planting year, the genotype FA005 followed by Camarosa and Festival, planted on 1st September, exhibited the longest harvest duration,while Sweet Charlie planted on 1st December exhibited the shortest harvest duration in both years.Genotype Festival planted on October yielded fruit with the greatest fruit weight, followed by SweetCharlie and Camarosa planted on the same date. Plants of FA 008 and BARI Strawberry-1 plantedin December produced minimum fruit weight. Maximum number of fruits/plant as well as yield/plantobtained from Sweet Charlie planted in October, while BARI Strawberry-1 planted in December yieldedthe least. With the use of quadratic equation it was estimated that maximum yield was obtained at ambienttemperature 18.5 °C then it was decreased with the increase of temperature. Strawberry planted in earlyOctober was found to be the most suitable in Bangladesh. Among the studied genotypes, Sweet Charliewas found to be superior in yield and early planting, and Camarosa was suitable for late planting. Festivalwas found less sensitive to planting date.

Published: June 2021

Avian coccidiosis has great economic impacts on poultry enterprise. Coccidiosis is caused byEimeria species mostly affecting epithelium of the birds intestines causing enteric problems. Prominentclinical outcomes are bloody diarrhoea, poor FCR, weight gain and growth rate with high morbidity andmortality rate. For the control of coccidiosis various strategies have been adapted including chemicalagents and feed additives. But due to their repeated use, drug resistance to Eimeria species emerged thusbadly affecting their efficacy. Moreover, these chemical agents have adverse effects on birds health andmeat quality. Therefore, alternatives are used nowadays including natural and herbal products having thedesired efficacy without harmful effects. Natural products and their anticoccidial activity have beenreviewed in this study. This group comprises herbal extracts, fatty acids, fungal extracts, probiotics andimmune response immunomodulators with proven anticoccidial activity. Additionally, poultry industryand economic cost of coccidiosis as well as classical strategies used in the control of avian coccidiosis arealso reviewed.

Published: June 2021

Laboratory studies were conducted to investigate the repellency effect of six plant species (Azadirachta indica, Caralluma fimbriata, Allium sativum, Curcuma longa, Citrullus colocynthis and  Calotropis procera) against Sitophilus zeamais reared on maize grains (Cv. Azam White) in the Laboratory of Entomology Department, Gomal University, Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan. Six concentrations viz. 5000, 10000, 15000, 20000, 25000 and 30000 ppm of each plant powder were applied to 20 g of sterilized maize grains under constant conditions of 27 ± 1°C and 65 ± 5% relative humidity. Twenty newly emerged adult maize weevil were introduced into glass petri dishes and percent repellency of plant powders was determined. A. indica seed powder  at 30,000 concentration showed 100% repellency against maize weevil followed by C. longa  (76%)  after 72 h exposure period whereas C. procera was found least effective showing only 39% repellency of the test insects compared to control. The powders of A. sativum, C. fimbriata were

found moderately repellent against the test insects. During the observations, it was also noted that repellency of the tested plant powders was dose dependent, the higher the concentration of the tested powders, the higher was the repellency and vice versa. The findings of this study indicated that the selected plant products could be used for a safer control of maize weevil.

Criteria air pollutants have their significance for causing health threats and damage to theenvironment. The study was conducted to assess the seasonal and temporal variations of criteria air pollutantsand evaluating the correlations of criteria air pollutants with meteorological parameters in the city ofLahore, Pakistan for a period of one year from April 2010 to March 2011. The concentrations of criteriaair pollutants were determined at fixed monitoring stations equipped with HORIBA analyzers. The annualaverage concentrations (µg/m3) of PM2.5, O3, SO2, CO and NOx (NO+NO2) for this study period were118.94±57.46, 46.0±24.2, 39.9±8.9, 1940±1300 and 130.9±81.0 (61.8±46.2+57.3±22.19), respectively.PM2.5, SO2, CO and NOx had maximum concentrations during winter whereas O3 had maximum concentrationduring summer. Minimum concentrations of PM2.5, SO2 and NOx were found during monsoon as comparedto other seasons due to rainfall which scavenged these pollutants. The O3 showed positive correlation withtemperature and solar radiation but negative correlation with wind speed. All other criteria air pollutantsshowed negative correlation with wind speed, temperature and solar radiation. A significant (P<0.01)correlation was found between NOx and CO (r = 0.779) which showed that NOx and CO arise from commonsource that could be the vehicular emission. PM2.5 was significantly correlated (P<0.01) with NOx (r = 0.524)and CO (r = 0.519), respectively. High traffic intensity and traffic jams were responsible for increased airpollutants level especially the PM2.5, NOx and CO.

One-way ANOVA at P < 0.05 showed Fcal (1.862) > Ftab (0.619), implying a significantdifference between the parameters for all locations.
An Investigation into the In situ Preparation of Hetero Bifunctional Monochlorotriazinyl-Vinyl Sulphone Reactive Dyes for Cotton
Authors: Pasha Khalid , Taylor John Anthony
Published: June 2021

An attempt has been made in in-situ preparation and application of two isomers (para and meta) of aminophenyl-b-sulphatoethyl sulphone reagents (PABSES and MABSES) with three dichlorotriazinyldyes i.e. CI Reactive Orange 86, CI Reactive Red 11 and CI Reactive Blue 168 to generate mixed hetero bifunctional dyes in dye bath. Dyeing results when compared with similar targeted type of commerciallyavailable Sumifix Supra dyes were found not up to the mark. Build up properties of all in situ prepared dyes were lower except for few light depth of shades as compared to preformed commercial Sumifix Supradyes. This could be because of inefficient condensation of dichlorotriazinyl dyes with the aminophenyl- b-sulphatoethyl sulphone. However, meta isomer of aminophenyl-b-sulphatoethyl sulphone appeared tobe more effective than the para isomer.

Objectives: Our objectives were to evaluate the long-term renal function after radical cystectomy (RC) and ileal conduit diversion (ICD) and to analyze year-by-year the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and morphologic upper urinary tract changes. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively identified 214 patients who had undergone RC and ICD from 2012 to 2018, with regular postoperative follow-up visits. The eGFR was calculated using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation at baseline and during follow-up. A renal function decrease was defined as a greater than 10 mL/min/1.73 m2 reduction in the estimated glomerular filtration rate. Results: The median follow-up period after RC was 24 months (range, 6-60 months). The median eGFR decreased from 64 mL/min/1.73 m2 (range, 9-125 mL/min/1.73 m2) to 61.5 mL/min/1.73 m2 (range, 8-125 mL/min/1.73 m2). A decline in renal function occurred during the first postoperative years (2.74 mL/ min/1.73 m2 and 3.95 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the first and second year, respectively), with a slight decrease in the subsequent years. The strongest predictor of an eGFR decline was CKD stage 1 or 2 (> 60 mL/min/1.73 m2). Urinary obstruction was diagnosed in 6 patients (2.8%). Among the patients who underwent prompt interventional treatment, we did not find any association with the eGFR decline. Conclusion: Patients with urinary ICD have a lifelong risk of chronic kidney disease. Regular monitoring of renal function and the morphologic upper urinary tract will permit early diagnosis and treatment of modifiable factors, avoiding irreversible kidney damage.

ВОСПИТАНИЕ В ПРОФЕССИОНАЛЬНОМ ОБРАЗОВАНИИ Воспитание в профессиональном образовании Германии: роль педагога
Authors: Goncharova A.
Published: June 2021

Educators involved in the implementation of vocational education and training (VET) are key actors ensuring its quality. This article focuses on professional responsibility of educators in the German VET system. More specifically, it concentrates on their task to educate. The explicit and implicit embedment of the educational task of vocational school teachers and company trainers in normative and regulatory framework of dual VET is explored. Further, the article addresses the development of the educational task of VET educators over the time. It is shown that in the course of the last decades, a transformation of VET educators’ roles and tasks as a result of the changing goals of VET took place. Along with these changes, the educational task of VET educators with respect to development of leaners’ personality and their personality-related qualities and virtues has gained importance. Furthermore, in light of the growing influence of globalization and migration processes, promotion of students’ intercultural competence becomes an integral part of their responsibility. Finally, the article shows that in spite of the growing importance of the topic, the empirical research on how role-related normative demands are perceived, adopted and fulfilled by VET educators in praxis remains scarce.

Статья посвящена вопросам профессиональной ответственности педагогов профессиональ- ного образования Германии за целостное развитие учащихся в условиях законодательно поддерживаемой системы дуального обучения. Повышение значимости воспитательной компоненты в деятельности педагогов профессионального образования обусловлено ра- стущим влиянием процессов глобализации и миграции, а формирование межкультурной компетенции становится важной частью педагогической деятельности. В статье приведены и проанализированы примеры и приемы явного и неявного воспитательного воздействия, применяемые педагогами и наставниками в процессе обучения. В заключение отмечается, что существующий на сегодняшний день уровень теоретического осмысления проблемы вос питания в системе профессионального образования не соответствует актуальности тематики.

As dietas para aves são compostas principalmente por produtos de origem vegetal, em que a maior parte do fosforo (P) se encontra na forma indisponível, denominada fitato. A molécula de fitato e os nutrientes ligados a ela não podem ser absorvidos no trato digestivo sem degradação enzimática realizada pelas fitases. As fitases hidrolisam o fitato em uma molécula de inositol e seis moléculas inorgânicas de fosfato reduzindo os seus efeitos antinutricionais. A magnitude da resposta da fitase pode ser mais significativa com o aumento dos níveis de inclusão e a degradação do fitato se correlaciona com grandes aumentos na retenção de P, concentração de cinzas na tíbia, ganho de peso, consumo de ração, eficiência alimentar, retenção de nitrogênio, energia metabolizável aparente e retenção de Ca. Por isso, esta revisão tem o objetivo de caracterizar a fitase e abordar os aspectos relacionados na sua eficácia e seus efeitos extra fosfóricos em dietas para frangos de corte.

A correção do pH de solos ácidos é de suma importância para o aumento da produtividade das culturas, sendo a calagem uma das práticas mais usuais para essa correção. Nos estados da região sul do Brasil, essa recomendação tem como base a determinação do pH do solo com o emprego da solução tampão SMP. Esse método vem sendo utilizado nesses estados devido a sua praticidade e aplicação para o cálculo de calagem. Entretanto, é preciso que haja regionalização desta estimativa devido as diferentes características físicas, químicas e mineralógicas dos solos. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar as relações entre o pH SMP, os teores de H + Al e os s atributos químicos do solo, carbono orgânico total e fracionamento químico da matéria orgânica. Foram utilizadas 43 amostras de horizontes superficiais de solos altomontanos dede Santa Catarina. A partir dos resultados, pode-se verificar que o pH SMP apresenta uma correlação significativa com o teor de H + Al, assim como outros atributos químicos dos solos, sendo assim possível estimar a acidez potencial por intermédio do modelo exponencial 62,48e-0,41x, podendo os valores de H+Al serem estimados por essa equação

Published: June 2021

As pastagens cultivadas de inverno são um importante componente dos sistemas pecuários no sul do Brasil, oportunizando a produção de carne e leite a custos competitivos. A qualidade de sementes é fundamental para o estabelecimento de pastos produtivos, com alto potencial e livre de contaminação de patógenos e plantas indesejáveis. O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar a qualidade de sementes de forrageiras de inverno adquiridas por produtores rurais no Planalto Catarinense, no verão/outono de 2017 e 2019. Foram amostrados 78 lotes de sementes de forrageiras adquiridas no mercado local em 12 municípios da região. Parâmetros de germinação, pureza, outras sementes e material inerte foram analisadas em laboratório de análise de sementes credenciado no Ministério da Agricultura Pecuária e Abastecimento. A maior parte dos lotes de sementes analisadas estão abaixo do que preconiza a legislação vigente. Isto compromete o estabelecimento, produção e rentabilidade dos pecuaristas.

Published: June 2021

O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar o rendimento médio diário da atividade de colheita da erva-mate por funcionário (tarefeiro) em ervais cultivados e não cultivados. Inicialmente foram solicitados às ervateiras da região os controles de corte dos seus colaboradores com registro da produtividade individual (kg/homem/dia) nos últimos meses. Com estes dados, considerados ‘amostra piloto', calculou-se a média e o desvio padrão em função do tipo de erval (cultivado e não cultivado), determinando-se o número mínimo de colaboradores a serem avaliados. Foram amostrados tarefeiros de 11 principais ervateiras do Oeste e Meio Oeste de Santa Catarina. Por disponibilidade no momento das avaliações, foram avaliados 46 e 44 colaboradores nos sistemas não cultivado e cultivado, respectivamente. Com 95% de confiança, estimou-se que o rendimento médio amostrado tem um erro máximo de 6,36% e 4,05% para os ervais não cultivados e cultivados, respectivamente. O rendimento médio de poda de 734,5kg/homem/dia para os ervais cultivados foi significativamente maior em relação aos não cultivados, 535,8kg/homem/dia.

Readmissions are treated as adverse events in many healthcare systems. Causes can be physiological deterioration or breakdown of social support systems. We investigated data from a European multi-centre study of readmissions for changes in vital signs between index admission and readmission. Data sets were graded according to the National Early Warning Score (NEWS). Of 487 patients in whom NEWS could be calculated on discharge and again on re-admission, 39.6% had worse vital signs with a NEWS score difference ≥ 2 points while only 7.6% had improved by ≥ 2 points. Changes in individual vital signs of 20% or more were most common in respiratory rate and heart rate. Monitoring of respiratory rate and pulse rate post-discharge might predict some deteriorations.
