Authors: Araújo Neto Renato Américo , De Araújo Filho José Teodorico , Da Silva Fernando J , De Farias Joelmir José Albuquerque
Published: February 2018

A cultura do sorgo destaca-se pela sua eficiência em épocas com escassez hídrica, surgindo como forte substituto do milho na alimentação animal. A produção deste está dependente, dentre tantos fatores, da adubação orgânica. Visando isto,este trabalho objetivou estudar o desempenho da cultura do sorgo forrageiro submetido a diferentes fontes e doses de adubo orgânico. O experimento obedeceu ao delineamento inteiramente casualizado, em casa de vegetação, no esquema fatorial, com tratamentos contendo duas fontes de adubos orgânicos (esterco bovino e ovino) e cinco doses de cada adubo (zero; 5; 10; 15 e 20 t ha-1), com quatro repetições. Para avaliação da altura de plantas e área foliar da cultura do sorgo, utilizou-se da equação de Boltzmann, estimando o desenvolvimento dos mesmos quando medidos aos 14, 21, 28, 35 e 42 dias após semeadura (DAS). Aos 42 DAS, avaliaram-se estatisticamente as variáveis altura da planta (AP), comprimento e largura da folha +3 e número de folhas (NF). O esterco ovino apresentou melhores rendimento na AP e NF, havendo interação estatística desses, onde 15 t ha-1 apresentou melhores rendimentos para AP. Quanto ao NF, a testemunha assemelhou-se ao tratamento com maior aplicação de esterco. Quanto à estimativa de crescimento da AP e AF, todos os tratamentos apresentaram ótimos coeficientes de determinação (R2) para aplicação dos adubos orgânicos.

A polpa da acerola é um produto obtido através da fruta in natura, por processos tecnológicos adequados, que substitui a fruta em polpa de fruta, evitando o desperdício e minimizando perdas que podem ocorrer durante a comercialização do produto. Este trabalho teve por objetivo, avaliar o teor de vitamina C e analisar as informações rotuladas nas embalagens de marcas de polpas de acerola comercializadas na cidade de Piripiri, seguindo a legislação vigente. Após as análises observou-se que a Amostra 01, mostrou maior teor de vitamina C e maior pH quando comparada com as outras amostras. Em relação à acidez titulável, verificou-se que todas as amostras apresentavam valores semelhantes, entre 1,4 – 0,8 % de ácido cítrico/100 g de polpa, após o 1 experimento, tornando estes valores constantes, seguindo a lei vigente. Com o acompanhamento das análises, foi possível observar que o período de estocagem contribuiu para percas significativas de vitamina C, variações de ácido cítrico e de pH. A amostra 01, foi a polpa que teve maior variação nos teores de vitamina C, ácidos cítrico e pH, entre todas as amostras. Os resultados das análises de rotulagem, mostraram que apenas a Amostra 2 (25%), relata a presença de vitamina C em seu rótulo, mesmo assim mostra resultado inferior ao permitido por lei. Portanto, nenhuma das amostras analisadas seguem a Normativa do Ministério da Agricultura e do Abastecimento Nº 01, DE 7 DE JANEIRO DE 2000.

A antracnose é uma das mais importantes doenças do feijão-fava, sendo considerada fator limitante no incremento da produtividade da cultura no Nordeste do Brasil. O principal controle utilizado para essa doença é o químico, porém, encarece custos de produção, principalmente, pelo cultivo ser praticado no contexto da agricultura familiar. Desta forma, torna-se fundamental a busca por métodos alternativos para o controle da antracnose na cultura. Diante do exposto, objetivou-se com esse estudo avaliar a influência do silício e do cálcio na severidade da antracnose do feijão-fava. Utilizou-se uma fonte de Cálcio (Carbonato de Cálcio – CaCO3) nas dosagens 2, 4, 6 e 8 g kg-1 de solo e duas fontes de Silício (Rocksil e MB4) nas dosagens 0,05, 0,075, 0,1 e 0,15 g kg-1 de solo. Em condições de casa de vegetação fez-se o plantio utilizando sementes do genótipo de feijão-fava G35. Aos 30 dias após a germinação, as plantas foram inoculadas com suspensão de esporos de C. truncatum na concentração de 106 conídios ml-1. As avaliações da severidade da doença foram realizadas aos 25, 40, 55, 70 e 85 dias após as inoculações, com auxílio de escala diagramática. Os teores de clorofila nas folhas foram avaliados pelo índice SPAD aos 60, 75, 90 e 105 dias após a germinação das sementes.

Financial literacy is an essential life skill. Money
management is a critical intellectual competency and an
essential component of a student’s success in life. If
the purpose of education is to prepare a child for the
future, knowledge of personal finance cannot be left
out of the curriculum. However, our education system
is not geared to impart financial literacy. It teaches our
kids Science, Economics, Humanities and Mathematics
but does not prepare them for the real world. What
come out of the assembly line are the professionals who
earn well but have low money management skills. Even
IIT grads, Software Engineers and those in the financial
services sector are all at sea when it comes to
investments, tax planning or saving for retirement. They
learn their money lessons the hard way by burning their
fingers, which can dent their financial future.

Women have been struggling for self-respect and autonomy. Although women constitute one half
of the population, they continue to be subjugated, unequal in socioeconomic and political
status.There have been several attempts to improve the position of women since India got
independence in 1947. Since mid-1980 owing to questioning by women themselves about their
oppressed status and plight through varied women’s movements, the issue of ‘women
empowerment’ came into focus. The Government of India declared the year 2001 as year for the
‘Empowerment of Women’, but the struggle to reach this stage has been long and arduous. . It has
also resulted in the entry of a large number of women in decision-making bodies in rural areas, who
were otherwise homemakers. Political participation and grassroots democracy have been
strengthened considerably by the 73rd Constitutional Amendment that has created new democratic
institutions for local governance yet t women are facing the various problem in the functioning of
panchayats.

male members of their family. So for knowing the status of women in the all level of panchayats
in India, this paper is based on the secondary data and deals with the political participation and
representation of the rural women in the panchayats in India. The theoretical perspective of the
evolution of the panchayati raj system in India and the journey of the women in the local governance
has also been explained in the study.Several factors which responsible for women’s low participation
have been dealt with.In this context, the paper tries to analyse the government initiative for
women’s empowerment in the Panchyats, an opportunity to come forward through reservation and

The use of biotechnological tools and other techniques to improve crops has given rise to a
significant increase in the patenting of plant components and plants. As a result of these trends,
it becomes critical to examine the impact of concentration on market competition. This is especially
important in a globalized world, where seed varieties are continuously imported and exported by
countries with various levels of economic development. This aspect of globalization should be
kept in mind while analyzing the consequences of market concentration on societal welfare.

भारतीय परम्परा के जीवन मूल्य
Authors: भारद्वाज आलोक
Published: February 2018

मानव मस्तिष्क स्वभावतया मूल्य शोधक है। मानव समाज ने सभ्यता और संस्कृति के क्षेत्र में जो प्रगति
की है उसकी आधारशिला भी मानव मूल्य ही हैं। मूल्यों का अन्वेषण करना युग विशेष का कार्य नहीं
है। यह एक अनवरत् चलने वाली प्रक्रिया है। मूल्य ही संस्कृति को वैशिष्ट्य प्रदान करते हैं।
भारतीय दर्शन के विकास के प्रथम सोपान से ही भारतीय मूल्य परम्परा का बीज रूप हमंे प्राप्त होना
शुरू हो जाता है। मूल्य-सम्बन्धी चिन्तन के सूत्र हमें वैदिक साहित्य से ही मिलने शुरू हो जाते
है।ऋग्वैदिक मूल्यों में ऋत के विचार का अत्यधिक महत्व है। ऋत हमारे आगे सदाचार के एक
मानदण्ड को प्रस्तुत करता है। संहिता काल में धार्मिक भावना प्रधान थी, परन्तु ब्राह्मण काल में कर्मकाण्ड
को अधिक महत्व दिया जाने लगा। उपनिषद्-काल में कर्मकाण्ड की अपेक्षा ज्ञान को अधिक महत्वपूर्ण
माना गया। जीवन के आभ्यंतर पक्ष को विकसित और विस्तृत करने का आह्वान इन उपनिषदों की
अन्यतम विशेषता है। महाकाव्यों के काल की जनता आध्यात्मिक एवं आधिभौतिक समस्याओं के साथ
संघर्षरत दीखती है।
वर्णाश्रम व्यवस्था, पुरूषार्थ, संस्कार, ऋणत्रय, पंचमहायज्ञ आदि को प्राचीन भारतीय व्यवस्थाकारों ने
सामान्य मानव के जीवन से जोड़ कर अपने उदात्त मूल्य बोध का ही परिचय दिया है। भारतीय चिन्तकों
ने जीवन के प्रत्येक क्षेत्र में मनुष्य के उत्थान के लिये एक अनुकरणीय पाथेय दिया जो उसके तथा समाज
के समग्र विकास के लिये आदर्श था।

but not global, hence leaves the possibility to explore the topology of the space (simply- or
multi-connected). By expressing the cosmological model in trms of energy density parameters,
we attempt to understand the geometry of spacetime. This is followed by a discussion on
the possibility to detect the signatures of topology of space imprinted on the Cosmic
Microwave Background (CMB).

Authors: Yoesdyanto Kennytha , Tertia Clarissa , Irfani Imam , Nara Mario GB
Published: February 2018

Latar Belakang:Atrial fibrilasi (AF) meningkatkan 4-5 kali terjadinya stroke iskemia. Insidensi stroke terkait AF berkisar 15-20%, dengan prevalensi antara 5-10 kasus per 1.000 populasi usia 65 tahun ke atas.

Kasus: Kasus 1: Seorang wanita berusia 85 tahun menderita diabetes mellitus dengan riwayat atrial fibrilasi (AF) persisten yang tidak diobati mendadak mengalami hemiparesis dekstra dan disartria sejak 1 jam sebelum masuk rumah sakit. Pemeriksaan penunjang menunjukkan normoventricular-respons atrium fibrilasi dan infark serebri multipel di ganglia basalis bilateral terutama sisi kiri. Pasien diterapi angiotensin-receptor blocker, antiplatelet, insulin, dan neuroprotektor dan dirawat selama 10 hari.

Kasus 2: Seorang wanita berusia 87 tahun menderita hipertensi dengan riwayat atrial fibrilasi AF persisten yang tidak diobati mendadak mengalami disfagia, afasia global, dan hemiparesis dekstra sejak 2 jam sebelum masuk rumah sakit. Pemeriksaan penunjang menunjukkan normoventricular-respons atrium fibrilasi dan multipel infark di daerah ganglia basalis bilateral dan substansia alba periventrikuler lateralis bilateral. Pasien diterapi antihipertensi, antiplatelet, dan neuroprotektor dan dirawat selama 10 hari.

Diskusi: Kondisi AF sebagai faktor risiko utama stroke kardioembolik pada kedua pasien. Penyebaran listrik ektopik menyebabkan irreguleritas kontraksi jantung yang menghasilkan stasis darah dan terbentuknya trombus yang sewaktu-waktu dapat terlepas menjadi emboli pada arteri serebral.

Simpulan: Manajemen yang tepat terhadap faktor risiko dapat mengurangi kejadian stroke iskemia dan memperbaiki prognosis pasien.

A Duty to Cognitively Enhance Animals
Authors: Rohwer Yasha
Published: February 2018

In this article I argue that humans have a pro tanto duty to cognitively enhance some animals threatened with extinction. I will use as a case study a particular set of animals: smaller Australian marsupials. Many of these animals are on the brink of extinction thanks to the introduction of the fox and the domestic cat to the continent of Australia. Ecologists conjecture that these marsupials do not have the behavioural flexibility to cope with these introduced predators. By introducing predators, humans performed a wrong action because it led to the extinction of species and continues to threaten many marsupials species such as woylies, Gilbert's potoroos, numbats and mountain pygmy possums. This wrong action gives rise to an obligation to intervene to prevent further species loss. Traditional means of conservation do not seem sufficient to address this obligation; therefore, there is a duty to cognitively enhance these creatures as soon as the technology is sufficiently researched and safe.
Reframing Tacit Human–Nature Relations: An Inquiry into Process Philosophy and the Philosophy of Michael Polanyi
Authors: Kaaronen Roope Oskari
Published: February 2018

To combat the ecological crisis, fundamental change is required in how humans perceive nature. This paper proposes that the human–nature bifurcation, a metaphysical mental model that is deeply entrenched and may be environmentally unsound, stems from embodied and tacitly-held substance-biased belief systems. Process philosophy can aid us, among other things, in providing an alternative framework for reinterpreting this bifurcation by drawing an ontological bridge between humans and nature, thus providing a coherent philosophical basis for sustainable dwelling and policy-making. Michael Polanyi's epistemology can further help us understand these environmentally-oriented tacit processes of knowing, and also provide a basis for the political and educational implementation of process-philosophical insights, particularly via the nudging of mental models.

Authors: Hossain Md Zakir , Ali Md Sher , Hasan Md Mahdi , Zakir Shehreen
Published: February 2018

This case report describe the management of a 17 years old female patient having class II div 1 malocclusion with history of temporomandibular joint surgery. Intraoral examination revealed that patient have proclined maxillary incisors, exaggerated lower curve of spee, and moderate crowding in upper and lower jaw. Other complaints are bite problem, inability to grinding food and unaesthetic smile. After extraction of upper 1st premolars, canine retraction was done which was followed by retraction of severely proclined upper anterior teeth by third order bend in rectangular stainless steel arch wire. For anchorage management TPA, intra oral anchorage with tip back & toe in bends in stainless steel arch wire was satisfactory. Following treatment, marked improvement in patient’s smile, facial profile and lip competence were achieved and there was a remarkable increase in the patient’s confidence and quality of life.Ban J Orthod & Dentofac Orthop, April 2014; Vol-4 (1-2), P.31-34
The Effect of Premolar Extraction on Tooth Size Discrepancies of the Patients Treated in Orthodontic Department at BSMMU
Authors: Anwar Nabila , Hasan Gazi Shamim
Published: February 2018

Aims: The present cross sectional study was carried out to investigate the effect of first premolar extraction on tooth size discrepancies (TSD) in an orthodontic population seeking treatment at orthodontic department, BSMMU.Material and methods: Mesiodistal tooth widths were measured on 50 pair of pretreatment and post treatment dental casts of subjects with Class I variation – Class I with bimaxillary proclination, and Class I crowding. The overall ratios and tooth-size discrepancies were determined before and after 1st premolar extractions. Before and after extractions, the subjects were divided into Bolton small (BS), Bolton normal (BN) and Bolton large (BL) overall ratio groups categorized by the Bolton standard deviation definition.Results: The Bolton overall ratio after 1st premolar extraction was smaller than those before extraction in each group. Some of the patients in the BN group and BB group were moved into the BS group and BN group respectively after 1st premolar extraction. A tooth size discrepancy occurred in some patients with normal overall ratios  after premolar extractions, but a tooth size discrepancy might be corrected in some patients with big overall ratios  after premolar extraction.Conclusion: Orthodontists should take into account the following when devising a treatment plan for premolar extractions, overall ratios might decrease and remain normal, and clinically significant tooth-size discrepancies could change mutually after extractions.Ban J Orthod & Dentofac Orthop, April 2015; Vol-5 (1-2), P.13-16
