Adapting to born-digital photographs : a case study of the Canadian Centre for Architecture
Authors: Moghtader Saba
Published: September 2022

As born-digital photography collections grow, so grows the need for a more defined set of guidelines on the best practices of how to acquire, describe and preserve said photographs. This paper is the result of a practical project conducted at the Canadian Centre for Architecture. The project uses the CCA as a case study and asks the question: how is the Centre adapting to the collection of born-digital photographs? During a six-month residency, the author, developed and implemented a description guideline, workflow, and donor guideline for the collection and cataloguing of born-digital photographs. These guidelines are the result of the steady growth in the volume of born-digital photographs coupled with the need for ensuring long term preservation for existing and potential collections.

The aim of this paper is to help improve the usefulness and clarity of the guidelines. The case study and paper was conducted in conjunction with the requirements of Film and Photography Preservation and Collections Management (FPPCM) master’s at Ryerson University. The title of the guideline is Guidelines for Describing Born-Digital Photograph.

Fiscal policy in a small open economy
Authors: Unknown Author
Published: September 2022

The great recession of 2008-2009 has brought fiscal policy modelling and analysis to the forefront, motivating a deeper understanding of fiscal issues. This thesis develops various strands of fiscal policy literature focusing on the identification of fiscal shocks, the modelling fiscal rules and the welfare implications of fiscal policy. The first few chapters are dedicated to building a rich fiscal model with debt rules for Canada and the last chapter explores the welfare implications of these fiscal rules. In the second chapter, we explore the role of temporary government spending shocks on macroeconomic fluctuations, primarily focusing on the response of private consumption. We estimate a four variable structural Vector Auto-Regression (VAR) model. We find across various identification approaches, a positive unanticipated temporary government spending shock generates a negative response in private consumption and a positive response in output. In the third chapter, we build a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model to account for these empirical findings. We use Bayesian estimation techniques to estimate five debt rules that correspond to various policy instruments and report the elasticities of these instruments to the cycle and the stock of federal government debt in Canada. We find an elasticity in response to debt of 0.26 for government spending and 0.16 for transfer payments. We find insignificant elasticities for the response of average effective tax rates to debt. Our findings support the presence of strong automatic stabilizers in Canada, with an elasticity of 0.41 and 1.73 for the response of average labour and capital tax rates to the cycle. In chapter four, we extend the homogenous framework in chapter three to a heterogeneous agent setting by introducing liquidity constrained agents and analyze the welfare effects of balanced budget rules and debt rules. Our results show that debt rules improve aggregate welfare in the economy compared to a balanced budget rule. This result is driven by the welfare gains of a large share of Ricardian households. The remaining liquidity-constrained households experience a welfare loss under debt rules, indicating that a balanced budget rule is preferable for agents who cannot engage in inter-temporal consumption smoothing.
Google's affair with Open Source Software: from browser wars to mobile domination

WEP Checklist Tool
Authors: Setayesh Azin , Greig Michael , Grosse Eric H. , Neumann Patrick , Glock Christoph H.
Published: September 2022

Warehouse Error Prevention Checklist Tool:

Manual Order Picking (OP) is a labor-intensive and time-consuming process. Poor human and OP system interactions can cause pick errors. The Warehouse Error Prevention Checklist tool (WEP) is to be used by warehouse designers and engineers for an assessment of the interaction of humans with the order picking system design to minimize the pick error occurrence. To do so, Human Factors (HF) which is a multidisciplinary scientific discipline which aims to optimize system performance and an individual’s well-being by understanding the system design elements and human-system interaction (IEA-Council 2000) has been considered. This tool consists of specific design criteria which are classified based on the OP design elements (Module 1- 5) and organizational behavior and facility design management (Module 6) with respect to HF as follows:

·  Module 1: shelf layout/layout design: This module includes defined facility and shelf layout to minimize an order picker’s physical and cognitive loads.

·  Module 2: pick information and technology design: This module includes defined criteria needed to avoid exceeding order picker’s perceptual demands by minimizing reading mistakes while using traditional picklist and reading labels. The new pick technology criteria have been defined to reduce order pickers’ cognitive, perceptual, and physical demands.

·  Module 3: storage assignment design: This module includes defined criteria on item allocation to the storage location to minimize an order picker’s physical and cognitive loads.

·  Module 4: palletizing/batching: This module includes defined item batching and stacking criteria to minimize an order picker’s physical and cognitive loads.

·  Module 5: routing: This module includes defined routing strategy to minimize an order picker’s physical and cognitive loads.

·  Module 6: organizational behaviour management: This module includes defined psychosocial factors such as motivation and training to minimize an order picker’s psychosocial demands. Also, it contains defined environmental criteria such as light, noise, and temperature to minimize an order picker’s perceptual demands
Core/Cultural Borrowing in Sabaot from Kiswahili: An analysis of Sabaot/Kiswahili Bilinguals in Mount Elgon Region, Kenya
Authors: MACHANI ABRAHAM , Kebeya Hilda
Published: September 2022

This study is an analysis of lexical borrowing of nominals in Sabaot from Kiswahili. The two languages under study differ from each other in significant ways. Kiswahili, for example, is a language of the Niger-Congo family classified by Ethnologue as ISO 639-3: SWA, while on the other hand, Sabaot belongs to the Southern Nilotic group that occupies the Mount Elgon area. This research was guided by the specific objective; to investigate the spoken language of young, middle-aged, and older Sabaot/Kiswahili bilingual speakers. This research was guided by two theories, namely Borrowing Transfer Theory by Terence Odlin (1989) and Ethnolinguistic Vitality Theory (EVT) by Giles and Taylor (1977). As a way of data collection, a wordlist and questionnaires were issued to 30 Sabaot/Kiswahili bilinguals of Chepyuk ward in Bungoma County, Kenya. The results of the wordlist analysis indicated that there were extensive core borrowings of Kiswahili nouns into the Sabaot language. The findings further showed that the core borrowing of nouns was more among the younger and middle-aged than among the older Sabaot/Kiswahili bilinguals.
Reading Traumatized and Depressed Women: A Cognitive Study of Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar
Authors: Abdul-Kareem Fatima Mohammed , Rasheed Lamiaa Ahmed
Published: September 2022

Depression is a mental disorder that disrupts people’s thoughts and behaviors. Today, depression is recognized as one of the most common mental illnesses worldwide that need to be studied and investigated in some disciplines and through literature in particular. Anyone may develop depression regardless of age or social background, yet, women are most likely prone to depression. Numerous theories have studied the nature of depression, its causes, symptoms, and healing process; among these is Aaron T. Beck’s model of depression. Beck’s model gives a comprehensive examination of depression and provides a therapeutic theory based on the model, known as cognitive behavior therapy CBT. Therefore, to understand depression in terms of Beck’s cognitive model and uncover the reasons that lead women to develop depression, the study utilizes the literary text The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath, which is a semi-autobiographical novel; that recounts heroin’s battle with depression. The research opens new horizons for psychological analysis in the literary domain and directs people’s attention toward the threatening consequences of depression.
Air Quality prediction using Multinomial Logistic Regression
Authors: Ali Ahmad Najim , Nassreddine Ghalia , Younis Joumana
Published: September 2022

Nowadays, Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a primary role in different applications like medicine, science, health, and finance. In the past five decades, the development and progress of technology have allowed artificial intelligence to take an essential role in human life. Air quality classification is an excellent example of this role. The use of AI in this domain allows humans to predict whether the air is polluted or not. In effect, monitoring air quality and providing periodic and direct statistics are essential requirements to ensure good air quality for individuals in the community. For this reason, a decision-making system is built to decide whether the air is clean or not. Based on this system's decision, necessary practices and measures are taken to improve air quality and ensure air sustainability. In this paper, the multinomial logistic regression technique is used to detect the air pollution level. The proposed method is applied to a real dataset that consists of 145  responses recorded from an air quality multi-sensor device containing chemical sensors. The used device was placed in New York City, USA, from 1/1/2021 to 7/1/2021 (one week) and is freely available for air quality sensors deployed in the field. The result shows the efficacity of this method in air pollution prediction.

Authors: Escobar Moreno Fabiola , Romero Vargas Sofía
Published: September 2022

Vincular los procesos de aprendizaje con la neurociencia es uno de los retos que la investigación educativa tiene que afrontar en el presente siglo, a modo de dar a los profesores universitarios las herramientas para gestionar de manera eficiente los conocimientos de los alumnos, creando experiencias de aprendizaje estimulantes. Con tal objetivo, se desarrolló y se aplicó en una escuela de nivel universitario una propuesta con enfoque neuro-educativo que pretende incrementar la habilidad en los estudiantes para la comprensión, análisis e interpretación de gráficas. La secuencia de aprendizaje propuesta se aplicó específicamente al tema de cinemática empleando el modelo ADDIE con un enfoque mixto: cuantitativo cuasi-experimental (utilizando la prueba Z) y cualitativo. Respecto a la ganancia conceptual no hay diferencias significativas entre el grupo de control y los experimentales, sin embargo, desde el enfoque cualitativo los estudiantes que antes de la secuencia didáctica propuesta tenían dificultades para expresar sus ideas por escrito y presentaban problemas para diferenciar los conceptos de velocidad y aceleración declaran que identifican el desarrollo de habilidades de orden superior.

Authors: Kang Nuree , Lee Cheol-Soon , Cha Boseok , Lee So-Jin , Lee Dongyun , Seo Jiyeong , Choi Jae-Won , Lee Young-Ji , Lim Eunji , Kim Bong-Jo
Published: September 2022

Objective: Internet addiction and smartphone addiction are emerging mental health concerns in adolescents. To determine the factors related to these conditions, we investigated their associations with sleep quality, chronotype, sleep patterns, daylight exposure, depression, and anxiety.Methods: Self-rated questionnaires, including the Internet Addiction Proneness Scale-Short Form, Smartphone Addiction Scale–short version, Insomnia Severity Index, Morningness–Eveningness Questionnaire, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, sleep-related questionnaires, and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, were administered in a study population of 1,610 Korean high school students. Multiple linear regression analyses were performed to evaluate the associations with internet addiction and smartphone addiction.Results: Multiple linear regression showed significant associations of internet addiction with poor sleep quality (β=0.094, p<0.001), eveningness (β=-0.071, p=0.006), less daylight exposure (β=-0.066, p=0.005), anxiety (β=0.252, p<0.001), and older age (β=0.295, p<0.001). Smartphone addiction was significantly associated with poor sleep quality (β=0.076, p=0.005), eveningness (β=-0.164, p<0.001), excessive daytime sleepiness (β=0.109, p<0.001), longer time in bed on weekdays (β=0.057, p=0.024), shorter weekend oversleep (β=-0.081, p=0.005), anxiety (β=0.192, p<0.001), and younger age (β=-0.145, p<0.001).Conclusion: Our findings suggest that poor sleep quality, eveningness, and anxiety can serve as predictors of both internet addiction and smartphone addiction in adolescents. Internet addiction seems to be negatively associated with daylight exposure, whereas smartphone addiction showed significant associations with sleep patterns. Additional studies regarding the causal relations between these factors are needed.

Published: September 2022

Objective: Since sleep duration has been suggested to play an important role in the development of obesity in children, the risk factors for insufficient sleep have received increasing attention. The aim of this study was to investigate the sleep duration and compare it with obesity with sleep duration in children aged 5–9 years.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted using Dietary Screening Test which is a parent-reported questionnaire administered to Korean children aged 5–9 years between January 2021 and July 2022. Data including sleep duration and bedtime were obtained. Body mass index (BMI) was categorized into the following four groups according to the age-specific BMI criteria: underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obesity.Results: Altogether, 15,543 out of the 22,055 participants, comprising 7,605 (48.9%) boys and 7,938 (51.1%) girls aged 5–9 years, were finally included in the analysis. The proportion of participants above the 85th percentile was 24.3%. The average sleep duration was 9.40±0.88 h. A comparison of sleep duration between the four BMI groups showed a significant difference in sleep duration at 5, 6, and 7 years of age (p<0.05). The bedtime for children aged 5 to 9 years was 21.69±0.75 h. There was a significant difference in bedtime at 9 years of age among the four BMI groups (p<0.05).Conclusion: In this study of Korean children, the obesity group had the shortest sleep duration at the age of 5–7 years and latest bedtime at age 9. These results may contribute to a better understanding of interventions to achieve sufficient sleep duration and prevent obesity in children.

Anas Karzai, Nietzsche and Sociology: Prophet of Affirmation
Authors: Özen Vasfi Onur
Published: September 2022

Anas Karzai, Nietzsche and Sociology: Prophet of Affirmation. Reviewed by Vasfi Onur Özen. In Nietzsche and Sociology: Prophet of Affirmation, Anas Karzai attempts to revive and defend the thesis that there is a crucial yet neglected connection between Nietzsche and sociology. In particular, Karzai’s book discusses the relevance of Nietzsche’s critical reflections on society and culture to modern sociological theory, which descends from Kant and Comte through Marx and Engels to Durkheim and Weber. The book has a critical agenda as well. By making use of Nietzsche’s insights into society, culture, and politics, Karzai hopes to expose how modern sociological theory retains many of the assumptions and approaches that gained a foothold during the reign of orthodox positivism of the 19th century, which reflect traditional sociology’s stubborn preoccupation with the issues of social order and moral integration.
Metallurgic Matter(ing)s: Mirrored Mandalorian Metal-Scapes, Mining(s), and Mimesis
Authors: Varga Bretton , Adams Erin
Published: September 2022

This paper traverses the relationship between wo/man, metal, and the more-than-human world. Drawing for new materialisms, specifically Bennett’s (2004, 2009) notion of (metallurgic) thing-power and IJsseling’s (1997) conceptualization of mimesis, we entangle our (posthuman) perspectives with scenes from a popular science fiction show, The Mandalorian. Specifically, we are interested in how a fictional metal with extraordinary vibrant properties, known as beskar, reflects/mirrors aspects of identity articulation and formation for the show’s main protagonist, Din Djarin. Using a (mimetic) narrative approach, we constructed two composite narratives around two scenes depicting the aliveness of beskar in different ways. We also make an argument for the further interrogation into the way that metals are mined, manufactured, and manipulated and how these processes factor into the making and un-making of what it means to be human in a more-than-human world.
Posthuman Mimétisme: Caillois, Adorno and an Aesthetics of Mimesis
Authors: Wolf Philipp
Published: September 2022

My paper  focuses on a notion of mimesis which made a lasting impression on French sociologists and surrealists of the 1930s, most notably Roger Caillois. Mimicry or mimétisme denotes an instinctive (and not always beneficial) form of assimilation to (not of) another organism or object. Interestingly enough, Caillois, was fascinated by an active “natural imagination,” diagnoses a propensity among humans to abandon themselves to the “lure” of what he calls “represented spaces”—beyond the intentional grasp of the subject. However, what mimicry “morphologically” brings about in animals may lead in humans to a “depersonalization” or loss of self.  Theodor W. Adorno received Caillois’s pre-reflexive with (critical) approval, but he insisted on retaining an, albeit aesthetic, form of reflexivity, without falling back into conceptual subjectivity and categorial appropriation. Aesthetic mimesis, a willing abandonment to works of art, makes possible and actuates the experience of a material, sensuous and indeterminate Other. Indeed, in an open confrontation with art, one cannot help getting immersed, even lost, in its radiating presence. “Aesthetic rationality,” then, comes precisely down to a realization of the limits of human rationality along with a— posthuman—acknowledgment of a more-than-human world beyond instrumental reason.
Posthumanism and Mimesis: An Introduction
Authors: Lawtoo Nidesh
Published: September 2022

A different, immanent, embodied, and relational conception of mimesis is currently informing the posthuman turn. Emerging from an ERC-funded project titled Homo Mimeticus, this opening essay introduces the mimetic turn in posthuman studies via three related steps: first, it differentiates aesthetic realism and the metaphysics of sameness it entails from a posthuman mimesis open to differential processes of becoming other; second it inscribes the mimetic turn in a brief genealogy of re-turns to mimesis in the history of western thought; and third, it turns to contemporary manifestations of hypermimesis—from Covid-19 to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022—to test the relevance of the mimetic turn. Together, these opening steps argue for the urgency to rethink mimesis in light of all too human, environmental, and posthuman challenges in the twenty-first century.

Authors: Jakipova Tanakoz , Adilbaeva Aigul , Bolatova Kalamkas , Mamyrbekov Arafat
Published: September 2022

This paper explores the demographic indicators of the East Kazakhstan region, formed as a result of the political campaigns in 1920-1930 period, especially forced migration and the confiscation carried out within the framework of the collectivisation policy, as a result of which the severe famine that took place considerably affected the decline in the population of East Kazakhstan. The historical fate of the Kazakhs who were resettled outside the border and in neighbouring countries and died as a result of famine in those years are discussed. We have used comparative-historical data to explore the region's demography and forced migration.
The Influence of Acculturation on National Identity
Authors: Zhumadilova Aigerim , Koptileuova Dina
Published: September 2022

The term “identity” has many specific definitions in the philosophical, psychological, sociological and cultural sciences, but can be defined as a set of individual personal and behavioural characteristics, attributes, beliefs and desires that define an individual as a member of a certain group. After gaining independence in 1991, Kazakhstan, which has experienced at least seventy years of “colonial” policy with various linguistic political strategies aimed at managing and strengthening the position of the Russian language, found itself in an interesting sociolinguistic situation, with a large number of Russian-speaking population consisting of both ethnic Russians and other national minorities, as well as ethnic Kazakhs, representatives of the titular nation. This article analyses the sociolinguistic phenomena, such as “shala-Kazakh/urban Kazakh” in independent Kazakhstan, and the Hebrew language of the Palestinians, the indigenous population of the territory now called Israel, as well as the influence of these phenomena on the national identity.

Authors: Tursun Khazretali , Idrisova Gulzhan , Dzhunsheev Rasylkhan , Dzhursunbaev Bakhytzhan , Musabekova Gaukhar
Published: September 2022

The object of the study is the history of the Kazakh traditional society in the XVII – early XX century. The relevance of the study is determined by the fact that the history of Kazakh-Russian relations needs a new methodological analysis. The article analyses the institutions of power established by the colonial government, the course and consequences of land transformation, the activities of political and social institutions of the Kazakh traditional society, the process of their transformation by the colonial government, systematises the characteristic features of the nomadic society of traditional society. The influence of the Russian Empire in Kazakh-Russian relations is considered as a reflection of the process of transformation of traditional society. In the course of this, the parallel implementation of two directions is revealed – modernisation and ethnodeformation. The authors suggest an interpretation of the concept of "ethnodeformation of traditional society" and its manifestations in Kazakh society.

Published: September 2022

Transnational migration spaces and a system of diasporas are created and developed in the context of globalisation. The self-identification of an ethnic group in destination is one of the facets of modern human mobility. The development of the Kazakh diasporas in Germany is a vivid example of self-identification. The study aims to examine the mechanism of establishment and development of the Kazakh diaspora in Germany. As part of the analysis of the Kazakh diaspora in Germany, a four-polar identification model was used. The study identifies the main causes and outcomes of the ethnic identification of the Kazakhs in Germany.
The Kurds in Lebanon
Authors: Hourani Guita
Published: September 2022

This article looks at how the Lebanese Kurds negotiate their political survival as a community in the post-naturalization era. Using two focus group sessions to generate qualitative data, it examines the ways in which these formerly “stateless” people, outside the official forms of state recognition, have utilized their newly acquired status (naturalization) for political survival. It presents their views regarding the Lebanese confessional system, which recognizes them as Sunni Muslims rather than as an ethnoreligious group, thus reducing their opportunities for political representation and public employment. Thus, in the post-naturalization era, the Kurds of Lebanon are “politically surviving,” but in order to liberate themselves from a painful and degrading dependence on non-Kurdish “bosses,” they need to produce an educated and concerned elite group, overcome their internal differences, and invest in the education of their children and the broader development of their community.
“No sembramos en el vacío”. Politización y cultura de obreros argentinos (1955 a 1976).
Authors: Pozzi Pablo
Published: September 2022

Este artículo presenta una reflexión en torno a las características particulares en la narrativa de los testimonios brindados por entrevistados de extracción social obrera, en particular respecto de cómo explican su proceso de politización. La premisa básica es que las narrativas de estos entrevistados son significativamente distintas en cuanto a imágenes, énfasis, y cómo estructuran sus explicaciones, de las de aquellos que provienen de otros sectores sociales. Lo que parecen indicar estos testimonios es que la politización es comprendida como algo natural, o sea una extensión de su experiencia de vida, más que como un despertar o un proceso de politización. La imagen que emerge es una por la cual la incorporación a la militancia fue algo natural, producto de la experiencia de vida y de la estructura de sentimiento forjada durante varias generaciones de una familia obrera.
El baile de los que ¿sobran? Clases sociales emergentes y revuelta popular en el paro nacional de Colombia.
Authors: Guerrero Hurtado Alejandro
Published: September 2022

El objetivo del artículo es analizar las de acciones de protesta, jornadas de movilización y establecimiento de puntos permanentes de resistencia en el marco del Paro Nacional en Colombia. La perspectiva teórica del documento ve en las contradicciones propias del proceso de acumulación de capital en un período histórico determinado el fundamento material de la lucha de clases, de la cual los movimientos sociales son expresiones mediatas e indirectas. El análisis de fuerzas sociales y su contenido de clase, actualiza el debate sobre las las formas de exclusión social en el capitalismo dependiente y el peso relativo de la superpoblación relativa en las manifestaciones de protesta social. En consecuencia, el artículo analiza tres momentos: el estallido social de 2019; la prolongación económica de las consignas políticas causada por la pandemia en 2020; y el momento de mayor volumen e intensidad de la movilización social en 2021.
Autonomía indígena y defensa del territorio en la Sierra Sur de Oaxaca.
Authors: Castillo Farjat Luis Alfonso
Published: September 2022

En México, los pueblos indígenas han pugnado históricamente por su derecho a ejercer el autogobierno como forma de preservar su existencia. Este reclamo cobra mayor relevancia ante la dinámica de despojo que ha adoptado el sistema capitalista, pues gran parte de los recursos naturales explotables se encuentra en aquellos territorios que han ocupado las comunidades indígenas. A partir del caso de una organización, en la sierra sur de Oaxaca, mostraremos cómo la demanda autonomista se ha convertido en una estrategia de defensa del territorio mostrando los principales retos y contradicciones en un escenario de creciente despojo y violencia.
De las redes sociales a la calle: Ayotzinapa y la conformación de un movimiento social de resistencia.
Authors: Téllez Henry Harley
Published: September 2022

El surgimiento del movimiento social de Ayotzinapa se constituyó a raíz de la desaparición de los 43 estudiantes normalistas, con una gran repercusión a nivel nacional e internacional, al integrar diversas formaciones ideológicas de resistencia y conformar un frente amplio, capaz de movilizar a organizaciones, colectivos y activistas. Las redes sociales fueron utilizadas como una plataforma de unificación para el movimiento, donde se informaba, comunicaba, se realizaban las convocatorias, además de ser un soporte vinculante, el cual permitió establecer dinámicas estratégicas y tácticas, con el objetivo de contrarrestar el discurso hegemónico del Estado y, así, construir una narrativa a través de las redes sociales y en los espacios, recurriendo a expresiones gráficas como el esténcil y el grafiti.
Neoliberalismo, austeridad y resistencia social: la movilización indígena de Ecuador de junio de 2022.
Authors: Dávalos Pablo
Published: September 2022

En junio de 2022 se produjo en Ecuador un levantamiento indígena liderado por la Confederación de Nacionalidades Indígenas del Ecuador, y sus aliados (FEINE y FENOCIN), que duró 18 días y que, finalmente, logró que el gobierno de Guillermo Lasso suscriba un acuerdo en el cual se compromete a reducir el precio de los combustibles, derogar decretos ejecutivos relacionados con el extractivismo y empezar un proceso de diálogo para resolver problemas sociales y económicos de los sectores más empobrecidos. Para comprender este levantamiento se analizan tres ejes básicos: (1) el programa de austeridad del FMI; (2) el sujeto comunitario y sus instituciones como el soporte organizativo del levantamiento; y, (3) la disputa por los significantes y el aparecimiento de medios de comunicación digitales comunitarios e influencers de redes sociales provenientes del mundo indígena y que jugaron un rol importante en la movilización.

Дуб на всіх дослідних варіантах характеризується добрим санітарним станом. Середній індекс санітарного стану насаджень на дослідних варіантах становить 1,1–1,5, а на контролі становить 2,0. Статистично доведено, що оптимальною схемою створення лісових культур дуба звичайного сіянцями із закритою кореневою системою, є 4 x 1,0 м.

Виявлено особливості поширення та сезонної динаміки щільності трьох видів адвентивних комах-мінерів із ряду лускокрилих (Lepidoptera) родини Gracillariidae у паркових і вуличних насадженнях м. Житомира: на гіркокаштані звичайному – каштанового мінера – Cameraria ohridella Deschka & Dimic, 1986; на робінії звичайній – білоакацієвого нижньостороннього мінера – Parectopa robiniella (Clemens, 1863); на липі дрібнолистій – японську липову міль-строкатку Phyllonorycter issikii (Kumata, 1963). Зареєстровано три максимуми щільності мін каштанового мінера (у ІІ декаді червня, ІІ декаді липня і ІІІ декаді серпня), два максимуми – липового мінера (у ІІ декаді червня та ІІ декаді серпня) і три максимуми – білоакацієвого мінера (у ІІ декаді червня, ІІ декаді липня та ІІ декаді серпня). Навесні щільність поселень каштанового мінера була найменшою в парках і вулицях центра, де восени прибирали опале листя. На величину пошкодженої площі листків гіркокаштана впливала не тільки щільність мін каштанового мінера, але також техногенні чинники та ураження грибами.

У насадженнях Містківського лісництва ДП «Сватівське ЛМГ» Луганського ОУЛМГ досліджували динаміку вильоту жуків ясенової смарагдової вузькотілої златки (ЯСВЗ) з модельних дерев ясена звичайного (Fraxinus excelsior) та ясена зеленого (F. pennsylvanica), зокрема дерев ясена звичайного, відібраних у сухому та свіжому груді. Перші льотні отвори виявлено 14 червня, а останні – 4 липня на деревах обох видів ясена. Динаміка вильоту імаго ЯСВЗ з дерев двох видів ясена достовірно корелювала та мала три хвилі. Коефіцієнти кореляції між часткою жуків ЯСВЗ, що вилетіли в різні дати з модельних дерев ясена звичайного та ясена зеленого, та відносною вологістю повітря не є значущими. З модельних дерев ясена зеленого вилетіла більша кількість жуків ЯСВЗ, ніж з модельних дерев ясена звичайного. У другій половині періоду спостережень із дерева ясена звичайного, яке росло у свіжому груді, вилітало достовірно більше жуків, ніж з дерева, що росло в сухому груді (59,0 % від усієї кількості жуків, що вилетіли з цих дерев).

In the era of personalized treatment in multiple myeloma, high-risk patients must be accurately identified. The International Myeloma Working Group recommends using the Revised International Staging System (R-ISS) to pick out high-risk patients. The main purpose of our work was to explore the heterogeneity of outcome among R-ISS stage II patients assessing the impact of International Staging System (ISS) stage, chromosomal abnormalities and lactate dehydrogenase level in this subgroup. Data were collected from 1,343 patients up to 65 years old with newly diagnosed myeloma, enrolled in three clinical trials implemented by the Intergroupe Francophone du Myélome. All patients were eligible for intensive treatment. Patients in R-ISS stage II but ISS stage I had 1.6 times higher risk of death than patients in R-ISS stage I (adjusted hazard ratio=1.6; 95% confidence interval: 1.1-2.2; P=0.01) and patients in R-ISS stage II but with ISS stage III had a better overall survival than patients in R-ISS stage III (adjusted hazard ratio=0.7; 95% confidence interval: 0.4-0.9, P=0.02). However, among patients classified in R-ISS II, ISS stage and chromosomal abnormalities (del[17p] and t[4;14]) were still relevant prognostic factors for death. Dividing R-ISS stage II into three subgroups: ISS I with standard-risk chromosomal abnormalities, ISS II or III with standard-risk chromosomal abnormalities and patients with high-risk chromosomal abnormalities, median overall survival times were, respectively, not reached, 112 months and 71 months (P<0.001). In conclusion, stratification of patients in the R-ISS stage II group can be improved by taking into account chromosomal abnormalities and ISS. However, this does not improve predictive performance of survival models.

In this paper, we examined the development of small-scale business in Nigeria. Primary data were obtained using structured questionnaires to elicit information from the study population. Data were analyzed using simple percentages and non parametric test statistic. The result showed that there is significant relationship between Entrepreneurship and development of small-scale business in Nigeria. It also shows that there is significant role of government in the development of entrepreneurship in Nigeria. The study recommends that there should be compulsory inclusion of entrepreneurship development modules in the academic programme of Nigeria institutions of learning so that entrepreneurial skills can be nurtured from the cradle. The study also recommends that government should provide technical facillities and services for Small and Medium Entreprises (SMEs) in Nigeria.

Published: September 2022

Utilization of agricultural by-products in animal nutrition is a practice as old as the domestication of animals. The dried orange peel (DOP), by-product of citrus industry is a promising source of diversified bioactive ingredients with beneficial effects on health. Therefore, this study was carried out to assess the dietary effect of DOP on production and, internal and external egg quality characteristics of laying hens. A total of 60 layers of 25 weeks of age were segregated into three dietary treatment groups using a completely randomized design and reared up to 42 weeks. The dietary treatments were control (basal diet), 5% DOP (basal diet + 5% DOP), and 10% DOP (basal diet + 10% DOP). The study revealed that dietary DOP significantly decreased the feed consumption and feed conversion ratio of layers (p < 0.05) without having any significant effects on egg production, egg weight and egg mass. None of the exterior egg quality parameters were significantly affected by the dietary supplementation of DOP (p > 0.05). Among interior egg quality attributes, the albumen height, albumen index, yolk color, and Haugh unit were all considerably elevated through supplementation of 10% DOP (p < 0.05). Nevertheless, the yolk index was raised by both 5% and 10% DOP supplementation (p < 0.05).  The relative weight of ovarian grape and oviduct did not affect by the supplementation of DOP with layer diet (p > 0.05). In summary, it may be said that layer diets can be supplemented with DOP up to 10% level to improve FCR, albumen index, yolk index, yolk color and Haugh unit without compromising egg production or exterior egg quality. Further studies are recommended with layer diets supplemented with DOP at levels higher than 10% to determine the ideal DOP dose during other production periods in various layer strains.
