Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Azadirachta indica and Vernonia amygdalina extracts on the morphoanatomy of striated  myofibrils in diabetic rat models.

Methodology: Thirty Wistar rats randomly assigned into 5 groups of 6 rats/group were used. Group A received distilled water only, B (herbal) received A. indica (500 mg/kg/day) and V. amygdalina (400 mg/kg/day) simultaneously, C were diabetic rats, D were diabetic rats treated with  herbal extracts combined and E, diabetic rats treated with metformin. Diabetes was induced with streptozotocin (70 mg/kg). Muscles glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and blood glucose levels were determined. The rats were sacrificed at the end of 60days treatment. The quadriceps femoris  muscle harvested for histology.

Results: Diabetic herbal treated rats became euglycemic by the end of 8 weeks. GPx activity was significantly (p<0.05) elevated compared to control.  The histology of skeletal muscle fibers of the diabetic rats treated with herbal formulation and metformin showed minimal level of damage.Conclusions: The findings in this study showed that the herbal formulation could be used in treatment of diabetes and in ameliorating the  associated muscular cytoarchitectural alterations.

Published: April 2021

The periosteum is a composite tissue comprising an outer protective fibrovascular layer and an inner cambium regenerative pluripotent layer. The regenerative function of periosteum has been put to clinical use by dental surgeons to manage alveolar ridge reduction and by tissue engineers to produce autologous micrograft and collagen used to manage complex wounds and scars. The essence of this study is to add to the body of knowledge on clinical use of periosteum to treat bone defects from the orthopaedic perspective. We highlight a case series to demonstrate the use of periosteum in managing bone defects caused by benign bone tumour, chronic osteomyelitis, tibial hemimelia and traumatic bone loss of the distal tibia in Delta State University Teaching Hospital, Oghara. Treatment of bone defects by this means is cost effective and the outcome is very satisfactory.

Background: COVID-19 is caused by novel Coronavirus Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Corona Virus (SARS-Cov-2). It is purported to have originated from bat in Wuhan province of China in December, 2019. The epidemic spreads rapidly, reaching a pandemic proportion in January, 2020. The economic implications of the pandemic and burden on health care are enormous. We, therefore, review the impact of this disease to orthopaedic practice.Methods: A comprehensive review of the literature, using suitable keywords, such as COVID -19, viral disease, orthopaedic surgery, on the search engines of PUBMED, Google Scholar and SCOPUS in June 2020.Results: The current treatment of COVID-19 is largely supportive. Lockdown, social distancing, are among many social preventive measures that had been adopted in an attempt to halt the spread of this disease. These Social adjustments, are achieving remarkable results. Intensive monitoring is key. Profound modifications had been made in all spheres of orthopaedic practice, suspending elective surgical cases and modifying the handling of inpatients and outpatients.Conclusions: Globally, orthopaedic practice has been altered in elaborate terms, to accommodate peculiarities of this emerging viral disease, COVID-19. Whilst not neglecting the needs of our patients who depend on us for due care, strict precautions have been adopted to protect patients and health care workers or halt the spread of the disease.

Cyprian Bazylik as the Author of Proteus

The anonymous poem Proteus was published in 1564 as the first literary response to Jan Kochanowski’s Satyr albo Dziki mąż (Satyr, or the Wild Man). In this article, authorship of Proteus is attributed on the basis of literary network analysis, the confessional sympathies that are present in the text (the influences of anti-trinitarianism), and the connections to the court of Mikołaj Radziwiłł the Black. The author of Proteus is Cyprian Bazylik, a poet, musician, printer, and translator who in the 1560s was associated with Radziwiłł’s court and was a follower of anti-trinitarianism.
"Jak gdyby to była prawda…" Podejrzany realizm i podejrzany modernizm Tadeusza Rittnera
Authors: Brzozowska Sabina
Published: April 2021

“As If It Were True…”: Tadeusz Rittner’s Dubious Realism and Dubious Modernism This paper is an attempt at redefining selected plays written by Tadeusz Rittner in the modernist and symbolist convention. In the 1950s, they were evaluated by Zbigniew Raszewski as among the playwright’s lesser achievements. I have analysed three texts: the one-act plays Sąsiadka (“The Neighbour”) and Odwiedziny o zmroku (“A Visit at Dusk”) as well as the play Don Juan. There is no doubt that the author did not avoid stylistic exaggeration in his modernist works, but one can also find some distance from the conventions of the Young Poland period as well as the use of the grotesque, theatrical sham, and the poetics of intimate drama in these plays. Rittner’s Viennese character is an alibi for his aesthetic choices and the manner of staging emotions. The evaluation of these plays, which were written in the symbolist and modernist convention, was affected by the theatrical reception, the artists’ superficial reading of the instructions included in the stage directions, and the pigeonholing of the works as realism with a hint of Romantic mood.
Pomiędzy znanym a nowym. Nie tylko młodopolskie echa w liryce Jadwigi Gamskiej-Łempickiej
Authors: Pekaniec Anna

Between the Familiar and the New: Not Only Young-Poland Echoes in Jadwiga Gamska-Łempicka’s Poetry This paper, which is devoted to the poetic unveiling of Jadwiga Gamska-Lempicka,a forgotten female poet, translator, and editor of the interwar period, aims to evoke the character of her poetry. It is also an attempt at presenting her various texts. Closely influenced by the Young Poland movement, she was in constant dialogue with concepts taken from the Skamander Group or avant-garde poetics. However, since she used the prerogatives her education had given her, Gamska should be treated not only as a Young Poland epigone: as a doctor of letters, she was strongly aware that her poetry was a successful collage of poetic conceptions that were often starkly different from one other and tailored to her individual expression, discreetly but visibly breaking with concepts that had been taken from the poetry of Leopold Staff or Maryla Wolska. A closer look at the three volumes of Gamska’s poetry is also a significant attempt at filling one of the many gaps in the study of women’s lyrics published before the Second World War.

Post-Mortem Landscapes: Regarding the Solovetsky Islands and Kolyma River (and Others) in Contemporary Polish Travel Prose The aim of this article is to demonstrate how contemporary Polish reporters describe the areas of former labor camps located in the Russian Federation, especially near the Kolyma River and on the Solovetsky Islands. The interest of Polish visitors is aroused by the “landscapes of death” associated with the Gulag in their geographical, natural, cultural, and mental aspects. The essence of the traveler’s interest lies in the Russian attitude towards the victims and perpetrators of Soviet terror as well as the daily life of the inhabitants of these sites. The source materials include, among others, the works of Ryszard Kapuściński, Mariusz Wilk, Jacek Hugo-Bader, and Michał Milczarek.

How to Read Board Games: The Similarities between Narrative-Oriented Board Games and Hypertext Novels

In Storytelling in the Modern Board Game: Narrative Trends from the Late 1960s to Today, Marco Arnaudo describes how board games can create narratives by using the tools that ludology and postclassical narratology provide. The way narratives emerge from tabletop games is extremely unique and interactive: they are created through the synergy of the game rules, material components, and actions undertaken by players. Board games, treated as transmedial narrative systems in which the text is entangled in various relations with images, sounds, or the ludic aspects of games, can become an area of research in literary studies. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that a scholar can effectively use knowledge of hypertext novels or ergodic literature to study narrative-oriented board games.

W artykule przedstawiono wyniki badań mających na celu sprawdzenie, czy wydatkowanie środków będących w dyspozycji Państwowego Gospodarstwa Leśnego Lasy Państwowe (dalej: Lasy Państwowe) odpowiadało zadaniom w zakresie gospodarki leśnej nałożonym na tę instytucję na podstawie przepisów obowiązującego prawa i czy było ono uzasadnione w kontekście zasady racjonalnego gospodarowania środkami publicznymi. Badania oparto na analizie danych wtórnych zebranych przez Dyrekcję Generalną Lasów Państwowych, oficjalnych danych statystycznych, informacji pokontrolnej Najwyższej Izby Kontroli oraz literaturze obejmującej obszar badań. Wyniki badań przeprowadzonych na podstawie danych z lat 2011–2016 wykazały, że ogólna sytuacja majątkowa i finansowa Lasów Państwowych w analizowanym okresie była korzystna ze względu na fakt, że co roku wspomniana instytucja odnotowywała znaczący zysk netto. Działania realizowane przez Lasy Państwowe były zasadniczo zgodne z modelem zrównoważonej gospodarki leśnej określonym w ustawie o lasach, jednak w przypadku ponoszenia nakładów inwestycyjnych na środki trwałe niezwiązane bezpośrednio z gospodarką leśną, zasada racjonalnego zarządzania środkami publicznymi nie zawsze miała pełne zastosowanie. Stąd też rachunek ekonomiczny powinien stanowić podstawę do prowadzenia działalności inwestycyjnej przez Lasy Państwowe.

Analysis of selected organizational and economic conditions in State Forests National Forest Holding

This paper presents the findings of a research study targeted at verification whether the disbursement of funds at the disposal of the State Forests National Forest Holding (hereinafter: the State Forests) corresponded to the tasks in the field of forest management imposed on the institution in question under the provisions of applicable law and whether it was justifiable in the context of the principle of rational management of public funds. The research was based on the analysis of the secondary data collected by the Directorate General of the State Forests, official statistical data, post-audit information of the Supreme Audit Office and literature covering the research area. The results of research carried out on the basis of data from 2011–2016 showed that the general property and financial situation of the State Forests in the analysed period was favourable due to the fact that each year the aforementioned institution recorded a significant net profit. The activities implemented by the State Forests were in principle compatible with a model of sustainable forest management specified in the Forest Act, however in case of incurring investment outlays of fixed assets not directly related to forest management, the principle of rational management of public funds was not always fully applied. Therefore, the conscious economic calculation should constitute the basis for conducting investment activities by the State Forests.

Published: April 2021

Work of Children in Arts Organizations. Two Faces of the Organizational Shadow Children-artists participating in film, show and media projects are, just like adult artists, participants in human resource management processes (e.g., recruitment, evaluation, training or derecruitment). However, children do not have professional competences similar to those of adult members of an organization, and their professional development is determined by the decisions of managers of arts organizations. The aim of the article is to deepen the reflection on the situation of children working in arts organizations in the context of the relationship “a child in the shadow of an adult”. In this article the shadow is the domination of adults, and the darkened space is the childhood of underage artists. The considerations lead to the conclusion that the work of children in arts organizations is a kind of challenge for adult members of the organizations.
Cień cyfrowy – „zacienione” elementy fandomów internetowych
Authors: Kosińska Olga

Digital Shadow – “Shady” Elements of Internet Fandoms

Contemporary socio-economic changes affect organizations and management. Management processes more and more often concern spheres and groups that go beyond the “traditional”understanding of the organization. Among them are online communities such as fandoms. Along with the process of organizing, the organizational shadow is emerging. Organizational shadow is defined as “a set of unacceptable features, tendencies, aspirations rejected in the process of socialization” (Kostera 2014, s. 23), the appearance and functioning of which is negated or hidden within the organization. Fandoms are governed by slightly different rules, often more variable and more difficult to identify than in formal organizations. That does not make them free from “shady”elements such as certain people, activities, features and values that do not match the current shape of the community. The article describes fandoms as new, informal organizational forms and subjects of management processes, and then identifies examples of the emergence of organizational shadow within them. These are three main causes of such a shadow manifestation –excessive control (e.g., of the forum moderator), undisclosed actions of administrators of the internet platform used by the group, as well as negligence (e.g., forgetting someone’s contribution to the project). The conclusions indicate the need for a further, in-depth identification of the elements influencing the development of the shadow in non-standard organizational forms.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı kadın girişimcilerin işlerini kurarken karşılaştıkları sorunlar ile demografik özellikleri arasındaki ilişkiyi Şanlıurfa ili özelinde ortaya koymaktır. Yöntem: Veri toplamada anket tekniğinden faydalanılmış olup anket uygulaması yüz yüze gerçekleştirilmiştir. 31 sorudan oluşan anket Şanlıurfa Sanayi ve Ticaret Odasında 63 kadın girişimci ile yüz yüze yapılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma evreni içerisinden elde edilen veriler kodlanarak bilgisayar ortamına aktarılmış ve analizler için hazır hale getirilmiştir. Değerlendirmede nicel araştırma yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Nicel verilerin analizinde SPSS-21 paket programından yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma farklı sosyal-kültürel yapıya sahip bir şehirde yapılmıştır. Bu açıdan çalışmanın literatür ve örgütler açısından önemli olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bulgular ve Sonuç: Araştırmanın sonunda işlerini kurarken ailelerini ikna etmek zorunda kalmayan kadın girişimciler ile ikna etmek zorunda kalan kadın girişimcilerin karşılaştıkları sorunlar arasında anlamlı bir fark olduğu görülmüştür. İkna etmek zorunda kalmayanlar daha fazla sorun yaşamıştır. Yine işlerin kurulması aşamasında medeni durum, sahip olunan çocuk sayısı ve aylık gelir gibi demografik özellikler açısından ise kadın girişimcilerin karşılaştıkları sorunlar arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Özgünlük: Kadın girişimcilerin işlerini kurarken karşılaştıkları sorunlarla ilgili farklı bölge ve şehirlerde yapılmış birçok çalışma literatürde bulunmaktadır. Şanlıurfa’da ise bu anlamda yapılan ilk çalışmalardan biri olması çalışmanın özgün yapısını oluşturmaktadır. Zira bu şehir sosyo-kültürel özellikler ve bu özelliklerin belli ölçülerde şekillendirdiği girişimcilik olgusu noktasında bir takım farklılıklar taşımaktadır. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın literatüre katkı sağlayabileceği düşünülmektedir.

The Impact of Initial Public Offerings on Firms’ Performance: Disentangling Treatment from Self-Selection Effects
Authors: Salerno Dario
Published: April 2021

Using a unique sample of privately held and firms that went public on the European and Asian Stock Exchanges between 2007 and 2011, we investigate the IPO’s impact on the firms’ performance after correcting for endogenous selection and by disentangling equity issues effects from other effects. We find that companies that are going public are more profitable than their matched private firms, while they experience a decrease in profitability over the post-IPO period. These results are resilient to different empirical strategies that address selection bias. Second, after disentangling equity issues effects from other effects, we observe a continuous decline in firms’ profitability in each individual year following the IPO year.

A Candida albicans é uma levedura considerada oportunista responsável por causar infecções quando à uma baixa no sistema imunológico do indivíduo. Com o aumento do número de microrganismos multirresistentes a fármacos convencionais, é importante o estudo da composição destas plantas para descoberta de tratamentos naturais alternativos. Portanto o objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar o potencial antimicrobiano do extrato de Morinda citrofolia e o óleo de Melaleuca sobre Candida albicans. A preparação do extrato de M. citrtofolia foi obtida através do fruto maduro  descascado, despolpados e sem sementes, posteriormente foi filtrado em uma peneira de 400 micras e centrifugado a 600G durante seis minutos, após a centrifugação foram retirados os sedimentos filamentosos e filtrado em em um copo coletor com uma peneira de 10 micras. Já o óleo essencial de melaleuca foi diluído 10% em óleo vegetal. Para o cultivo de Candida albicans foi inoculado em ágar sabouraud dextrosado utilizando a tecnica de espalhamento e mantida em estufa por um período de 7 a 14 dias em temperatura de 28-30°C. Em todos os testes feitos o óleo essencial de melaleuca, foi o que apresentou o maior halo de inibição, seguido do Fluconazol (usado como controle positivo) que apresentou halos menores ou iguais ao do óleo de melaleuca quando comparado ao controle negativo e ao Noni (p≤ 0.05) que apresentou um índice inibitório considerável. O número de  triplicatas foi mais do que o suficiente para comprovar a hipótese experimental da eficácia do óleo de melaleuca e do extrato de Noni como inibidores do crescimento de Candida albicans.

The role of the globalisation process on mitigation of carbon dioxide emissions of Latin American & Caribbean countries
Authors: Koengkan Matheus , Fuinhas José Alberto
Published: April 2021

The impact of globalisation on carbon dioxide emissions was analysed in a panel data of thirteen LAC countries for the period from 1991 to 2012. A panel autoregressive distributed lag methodology was used to decompose the total effects of globalisation on carbon dioxide emissions both in short- and long-run components. There is evidence that globalisation contributes to reducing carbon dioxide emissions in the long-run. A possible explanation of this result is that the process of globalisation causes technological enhancement in LAC countries, which contributes to a decrease in environmental degradation. Globalisation has other implications, such as the transfer of responsibility from the state to the private sector, where this transfer corresponds to the shifting of regulatory attributes to independent governmental regulatory authorities, in other words, “regulation for competition”.

Published: April 2021

Ao contrário do que aponta a maior parte da historiografia, a reorganização do Exército Vermelho não se deu durante a Batalha de Stalingrado. Tampouco foi obra desenraizada, concebida e imposta rapidamente por um tirano. Ela se inscreve num processo mais lento, iniciado com a década de 1930. O governo soviético lançou uma campanha pelas reformas ainda em 1940, inclusive com o uso do cinema. Apesar da pressão financeira, legal e física sobre os cineastas, jamais conseguiu exercer um controle absoluto. O cinema, como aponta Marc Ferro, abre uma janela para uma visão minuciosa de uma sociedade, que poderia passar despercebida sem o uso dessa fonte. O filme Suvorov (1940), dirigido pelo cineasta soviético Vsevolod Pudovkin, permite realizar uma análise segundo a perspectiva mencionada acima.

Authors: Wibowo Moses
Published: April 2021

Teologi Perjanjian baru adalah bidang yang luas. Namun demikian fokus dari teologi PB adalah Allah dan karya-Nya dalam rangka misi penyelamatkan manusia berdosa dengan membentuk  komunitas baru. Karya keselamtan ini datang dari Allah, dikerjakan oleh dan dalam Yesus Kristus dan direalisasikan bagi orang percaya oleh Roh kudus dan karya-Nya. Artikel ini akan mengulas secara khusus tentang Roh kudus dan karya-Nya sebagai agen misi Allah kedua secara berkala dan berkesinambungan. Dalam mengulas, akan menggunakan pendekatan historis-teologis dengan menjadikan Alkitab dan khususnya PB sebagai dokumen kanonik yang Allah berikan kepada gereja sebagai sang pemelihara. Pengungkapan dan pengulasan pribadi Roh kudus dan karya-Nya sebagai agen misi Allah kedua dalam rangka menuntaskan misi penyelamatan akan dimulai dari dokumen Injil Sinoptik dan Kisah Para Rasul dengan menjadikan karya Marshall: New Testament Theology sebagai sebuah patron.
TINJAUAN TEOLOGIS-ETIS TENTANG BISNIS MEMBUNGAKAN UANG
Authors: Bambangan Malik
Published: April 2021

Kebutuhan hidup manusia dalam segala aspek semakin hari semakin meningkat seiring dengan naiknya harga sembako yang semakin tinggi.  Hal ini menuntut berbagai daya dan upaya yang dilakukan oleh manusia untuk memenuhi kebutuhan hidup tersebut agar tetap bertahan hidup. Namun karena himpitan ekonomi ini terlalu menekan hidup rakyat, maka banyak rakyat yang hidup miskin, melarat dan menderita.  Banyaknya tuntutan hidup dalam kondisi ekonomi yang semakin carut-marut ini, memaksa pemerintah untuk segera turun tangan menyelesaikannya. Sebagai upaya pemerintah telah mengadakan KUD, UKM, KUR, BPR dan BKK.  Program pemerintah dalam pengentasan kemiskinan seperti ini sedikit memberi solusi, namun sayangnya karena hal itu hanya berlaku bagi rakyat yang ekonominya menengah ke atas, untuk meningkatkan bisnis mereka.  Sementara itu, untuk kelas ekonomi menengah ke bawah,  semakin tertindas dalam kemiskinannya dan tidak diperhatikan.  Hal ini seakan-akan menjadi pembiaran oleh pihak pemerintah yang membiarkan rakyat kecil, miskin hidup dalam kemelaratan.  Sebagai dampak dari pembiaran ini maka muncullah kelompok yang ingin membantu sesamanya terbebas dari jerat kemiskinan itu.  Kelompok ini memberikan pinjaman uang kepada siapa saja yang membutuhkan pinjaman disertai dengan bunganya.  Kelompok ini sepertinya memberikan solusi yang cepat namun tidak tepat dalam memenuhi kebutuhan hidup. Karena pemberian pinjaman uang yang disertai dengan bunga serta waktu yang relatif singkat dalam pengembaliannya, hanya menguntungkan pihak pemberi pinjaman uang, sementara yang meminjam kembali terjebak dalam kubangan hutang bunga uang yang di pinjam untuk dibayar.  Itulah sebabnya kelompok pelepas uang atau pemberi pinjaman uang ini disebut RENTENIR.

Teologi Paulus mengambil peran yang signifikan dalam Teologi Perjanjian Baru. Teologi Paulus secara restropektif fokus pada karya Allah dalam dan melalui Yesus Kristus, terutama pasca kenaikan-Nya ke sorga. Dalam teologi Paulus karya Yesus Kristus diaktivasikan oleh Roh Kudus kepada gereja yaitu orang percaya. Essay ini memfokuskan pada bagaimana kiprah Roh Kudus dalam teologi Paulus. Untuk memahami kiprah Roh Kudus ini maka segala hal yang berkaitan dengan karya Roh Kudus dalam Paulin Corpus akan dicermati dan dipahami. Riset ini akan dilaksanakan dalam bingkai sejarah keselamatan yang merupakan karaya Allah di dalam dan melalui Yesus Kristus dalam prespektif teologi Paulus yang dipersentasikan oleh Marshall dalam bukunya New Testament Theology. Teologi Paulus mempersentasikan bahwa Roh Kudus adalah Agen Allah yang berkiprah untuk mengaktivasikan karya Yesus Kristus. Roh Kudus menjadi agen transformasi dan rekonsiliasi dalam prespektif karya penyelamatan untuk mengujudkan komunitas baru di bumi yang di sebut ciptaan baru yaitu gereja. Gereja sebagai ciptaan baru berperan sebagai objek karya Roh Kudus dan juga subjek yang berpartisipasi di dalam karya Roh Kudus di bumi ini.

TOWARDS A BIBLICAL THEOLOGY OF RELIGION FOR THIS TIME: CRUX AND POSSIBILITIES
Authors: Griffioen Dirk
Published: April 2021

In this article I point out that a reformed or practical biblical theology of religion still needs to adapt to our contemporary era. In order to achieve that this research makes use of the efforts made by other people. I am going to focus on the central problem - the questions which I think pertain to religious theology. In the past much attention has been given among us to theological questions but not much has been done to build a system. Hendrik Kraemer was the first missionary to develop a more or less comprehensive theology of religion. One of the results of this research shows that Religion and religions, Christianity and non-Christianity, are phenomena and / or institutions that must be described, compared, and assessed.
Halotolerance of pseudomonads isolated from aquatic environment and fish (Sander lucioperca) in the Volga River delta
Authors: Obukhova Olga V. , Lartseva Lubov V.
Published: April 2021

Introduction. The material shows halophiles bacteria R. Psendomonas the water’s microbiota and the pikeperch in spring and autumn. The attachment of Pseudomonas isolated from these habitats, certain Delta areas has not been identified. Materials and methods. 190 “water” strains and 720 ones isolated from fish were experimentally tested. In meat-peptone broth (MPB) with 3.0, 7.0, and 10.0% NaCl content, daily cultures of analyzed bacteria were sown, incubation of which was carried out at 37 0 C, and the results were taken into account after 24 and 48 hours. Results. There were no significant differences in halophilicity in the analyzed strains, except for the autumn season, especially in 10.0% salt solution. Among the isolated pseudomonads, the maximum halotolerance in both biotopes was observed in P. fluorescens and P. alcaligenes in P. putida. Halophiles strains of Pseudomonas that infect the water and fish had seasonal cycles. A slight decrease in the halophilicity of pseudomonades persistent in water and fish only at concentrations of 3.0 and 10.0 mg/l from spring to summer (1.1-1.2 times), and their significant rise in autumn (1.5 and 1.4 times) in the salt concentration of 3.0 mg/l. In the tested strains in spring and autumn, increased salt tolerance values were noted, which was determined by the hydrological and hydrochemical features of Delta waters and the “transfer” of bacteria in the body of walleye during its migration from the sea to the river. Conclusion. Analysis of long-term material showed high halophiles studied strains of pseudomonad, indicating that their sanitary and epidemiologic danger, and the ability to remain viable in salted fish products

Introduction. Since the end of the last century, changes in society have reflected on the morphophysiological status of the indigenous population of Yakutia. The work investigated the dynamics of the physical constitution and functional indicators of the circulatory system in young Yakuts, students of the North-Eastern Federal University, over the past two decades. Material and methods. The study involved young men 18-21 years old: 54 born - in 1998-99 and 63 in 2019, anthropometric studies were conducted, and physical development and body type were assessed. Hemodynamic parameters heart rate and blood pressure were determined: Results. The determination of body mass index (BMI) revealed a high degree of discrepancy between bodyweight and height in students of this century. In 1998-99, the normal BMI value was found in 85.2%, above the norm - in 7.4% of the examined. While in 2019, normal BMI values are observed in 58.7%, in 36.5% - above the norm, including 9.5% - 1-2 degree obesity. In 2019, the distribution of students by somatotype changed: along with a decrease in normosthenics by 14.5% and asthenics by 13.2%, the number of hypersthenics increased by 36.5%. Analysis of hemodynamic parameters depending on the type of constitution revealed significantly higher blood pressure (BP.) values in hypersthenics compared to normostenics and asthenics. Over the 20-year period of observation, students had a significant increase in the values of systolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, and the greatest increase was noted in students with hypersthenic constitution. Conclusions. The revealed shifts of anthropometric indices in modern Yakut students, compared with the young men of 1998-99, indicate an increase in the prevalence of overweight and the development of a constitution according to the hypersthenic type. Against the background of body hypersthenization, the adaptive capabilities of the circulatory system decrease.

In present era 80% of the disorders in the world are of Samarogas. Out of them the most crippling disorder, which hampers the economy of the world as well as the individual, are musculo-skeletal disorders. These are best known as Rheumatic disorders. Out of them many disorders have got signs & symptoms similar to Amavata. So the Amavata description given in the Madhavanidana covers a variety of Rheumatological disorders. Due to wide spectrum of disease, much prevalence in the society and lack of effective medicament, the disease is being chosen for the study. This research study was conducted on 30 patients with classical sign & symptoms of Amavata by adopting proper assessment criteria. In group A 15 patients were treated with Prasarini Taila and Doshahara Basti for 8 consecutive days. In group B 15 patients were treated with Prasarini Taila and Vaitarana Basti for 8 consecutive days. The pharmacodynamic property of Basti dravyas are having Laghu- Tikshna guna, Katu-Tikta rasa, Ushna virya are against the Guru, Pichchila, Sheeta properties of Ama. Thus Basti proves an effective treatment in Amavata. The overall effect of therapy in Group A was 78.57 % and in Group B was 51.19%.
