Published: September 2022

Bu bilimsel katkı, Kuzey Kamerun'da yaşayan Müslümanların zorluklarını incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Fikrimiz, idari hizmetlerin mevcut durumunda ve siyasi hayatın yönetiminde, Kuzey Kamerun'daki Müslüman vatandaşların temsil gücünün çok düşük olduğu gözleminden esinlenmiştir. Birkaç yıl boyunca tarih ve sosyolojik ve katılımcı gözlem yoluyla, Kamerun'un bu bölgesindeki Müslüman toplumun gelişimini etkileyen sömürgeci geçmişin ve toplumdaki aşırı muhafazakâr fikirlerin etkisinin olduğunu anlıyoruz. Göreceli olarak ülkenin kuzeyi Müslümanlar, güneyi ise Hıristiyanlar tarafından gözlemlenebilen karışıma rağmen yaşamaktadır. Esas olarak Avrupa kökenli modern okulun ortaya çıkışının, hem sosyo-dini düzeyde hem de Kuzey Kamerun Müslüman topluluğu içindeki liderliğin konfigürasyonu düzeyinde bir etkisi olduğu ortaya çıkıyor. Bu çalışmanın yeniliği ve özgünlüğü, Kuzey Kamerun ve Türkiye'deki Afrika araştırmalarında İslâm tarihine tarihsel katkısını açıklamaktadır. Bu çalışma aynı zamanda Müslüman liderler ile Devletin, Kamerun'da mevcut Hristiyanlık karşısında Müslümanların durumunun bir azınlık bağlamında daha iyi diyaloğa girmesine olanak sağlayacak sosyo-politik bir katkıya da sahiptir.

Приведены результаты изучения материалов раскопок кургана раннесакского времени Кырыкоба в Восточном Казахстане. Памятник разграблен, содержал останки человека. По заключению антропологов, в кургане быта похоронена женщина зрелого возраста с признаками трепанации черепа. В захоронении обнаружены ок. 200 предметов, в основном украшения из золота и поделочных камней (поясные обоймы, золотой бисер, бусы). В статье дается описание наиболее интересной находки — биметаллической булавки: она изготовлена из железа, стержень обломан, миниатюрная головка диаметром менее 1 см покрыта золотой фольгой. На поверхности головки изображено копытное животное с изогнутым рогом на голове и перекрученным на 180° туловищем. Отмечено, что подобный стилистический прием в изображении копытных животных и хищников был распространен в скифо-сибирском искусстве на территориях Казахстана и Западной Сибири в VII-IV вв. до н.э. В числе незаурядных находок выделены украшения, изготовленные из мелового слоя створок устричных раковин. Это подвески в виде овальной пластины, которая по форме напоминает клык животного, а также фигурок хищного животного (20 экз.), различных по размерам — от 0,4 х 0,4 до 2,5 х 2,2 см. Отмечено, что устричные раковины с толстым меловым слоем добывали на побережье Индийского океана и Персидского залива. Указаны аналоги бусам и фигурке животного, изготовленным из мелового слоя моллюсков, в коллекции раннескифского погребения Гилёво-10 на Алтае. Сделан вывод о том, что рассмотренные материалы отражают характер региональных и внутриконтинентальных торговых и культурных связей Восточного Казахстана и Западной Сибири. Они проявляются в единстве технологических традиций, образов, композиций и орнаментальных мотивов.

В статье рассматривается предположительный случай хронического верхнечелюстного синусита (ХВС), обнаруженный в серии неандертальских антропологических находок из Чагырской пещеры на Горном Алтае. Признаки заболевания зафиксированы на образце Чагырская 57, представляющем собой фрагмент левой верхнечелюстной кости с частично сохранившимися альвеолами корней первого моляра, вторым и третьим моляром, прилежащими частями стенок и дна верхнечелюстного синуса. Он был обнаружен в слое 6б, датируемом в интервале 53 100-51 100 л.н. Основной задачей исследования является анализ факторов, повлиявших на возникновение и развитие заболевания, и определение его этиологии и патогенеза. На 3D-модели, созданной по результатам компьютерной микротомографии, и оригинальном образце были зафиксированы поротические изменения, расположенные на линии слома альвеолы утраченного посмертно М1 и в области вестибулярных корней обоих сохранившихся моляров, а также изолированные костные спикулы размером 1,0-2,6 мм. Наблюдаемые признаки соответствуют начальной степени развития заболевания, причиной которого стал хронический пародонтит в сочетании с глубоким залеганием альвеолярной бухты верхнечелюстного синуса. По мере расширения периодонтальной щели произошло слияние нескольких мелких питательных отверстий, пронизывающих дно синуса, в результате чего сформировалось несколько каналов ороантрального сообщения, обеспечивающих проникновение инфекции в верхнечелюстную пазуху. Поскольку глубокое внедрение альвеолярной бухты в альвеолярный отросток верхнечелюстной кости наблюдается у подавляющего большинства неандертальских находок с опубликованными изображениями или реконструкциями полостей верхнечелюстных синусов, можно предполагать, что предрасположенность к одонтогенному ХВС являлась одной из особенностей патологического статуса неандертальцев.

Authors: AHMED Shwan , SARI Aysel
Published: September 2022

Vitamin D supplements are a beneficial health issue to benefit from insulin therapy. In those with T2DM, serum vit-D was checked and resuscitated. Serum vit-D was evaluated with its rich content. Serum vit D levels were statistically significantly lower in T2DM patients than in the control group. It was found to be significant in terms of the relationship between fasting blood sugar and vit-D and HbA1C. Vit-D in sugar will be used as a benefit from vit-D in patients with blood T2DM patients. The mean±SD vit-D level was 19.22±9.23 for the whole population with a fasting blood glucose level of 110 mg/dl or less, and 12.21±6.15 for people with a fasting blood glucose level above 130 mg/dl, and p<0.001. The relationship between vit-D level and fasting blood sugar is statistically significant with negative pearson correlation coefficient. Vit-D mean±SD 20.46±8.56 for the entire population with an HbA1C level equal to or lower than 6.5%, and 12.84±6% for individuals with a fasting blood glucose level above 6.5%, is 26 and p<0.001. The strong relationship between vit-D and fasting blood glucose and HbA1C is due to the fact that vit-D tends to specifically stimulate insulin production in β-pancreatic cells via the nuclear vit-D receptor (VDR) and that vit-D minimizes inflammation. Vit-D supplements are a beneficial health challenge to benefit from insulin therapy. Serum vit-D was checked in patients with T2DM. The serum has been evaluated with its rich content of vit-D. Serum vit-D levels were statistically significantly lower in T2DM patients compared to the control group. It was found to be significant in terms of the relationship between fasting blood sugar and vit-D and HbA1C. Vit-D in sugar will be used as a benefit from vit-D in blood T2DM patients.Keywords: Vitamin D, Serum, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Human.
Green Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles Using Aqueous Extract of Asphodelus Aestivus, Coating with Chitosan Biopolymer and Cytotoxicity Studies
Authors: YILMAZ Ersen , ATEŞ Mehmet , ERBAY Muhammed
Published: September 2022

The green synthesis of gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) was carried out by pouring the aqueous extract of East Anatolian origin Asphodelus aestivus plant onto aqueous gold metal ions and reducing them via single-step one- pot method. The absorption peak of the synthesized nanoparticles gave a maximum at 575 nm. All the X-ray diffraction peaks at 2θ = 38.25 , 44.46 , 64.64 and 77.20 that index to (111), (200), (220), and (311) planes verify the successful synthesis of Au-NPs. Mostly spherical shape particles showed a homogeneous distribution with size range 20±5 nm are measured using TEM. From the FTIR spectrum, the peaks are seems to be related to phenolic compounds, flavonoids, benzophenones, terpenoids and anthocyanins which assume that they could act as the reducing agents. The plant extraction, one-pot, single-step method used is environmentally safe without the role of synthetic materials which is highly potential in mild and green synthesis applications. The Au-NPs were coated with chitosan biopolymer in aquatic solution medium and verified by SEM. Then, cytotoxic investigations of the biosynthesized Au-NPs were carried out by HUVEC cells. Au-NPs were showed toxic effects on cell culture, even if in a small amount. However, chitosan biopolymer coating increased cell viability.Keywords: Gold nanoparticle, Biosynthesis, Asphodelus aestivus, Biopolymer coating, Cytotoxicity

Authors: ALAN Yusuf , ALMAZ Züleyha
Published: September 2022

Since the existence of humanity, plants have been used in many treatment methods. Members of the genus Verbascum, also known as mullein, a member of the Scrophulariaceae family, have been evaluated for their traditional use against various ailments. In this study, the anticholinesterase and anticancer activities of Verbascum member Verbascum insulare Boiss. Et Heldr. collected from Muş region were investigated. V. insulare leaf ethanol (L-EtOH), leaf purified water (L-PW), root ethanol (R-EtOH), and root purified water (R-PW) extracts were obtained. The anticancer activity of the extracts against HT-29, MCF-7, and L-929 cell lines was examined using the 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) test and the anticholinesterase activity was determined. It was found that the ethanol extract showed higher anticancer activity against cancer cell lines than the pure water extract and had more effective anticholinergic influences. No study has been found in the literature on the anticancer and anticholinesterase activity of this plant. Therefore, the results obtained from this study will contribute significantly to the development of herbal medicine in the future.
Effect of Silane-Coated SiO2 Nanoparticles on the Hardness Values of Glass FRP Composites
Authors: UZAY Çağrı , KAMER Muhammed Safa
Published: September 2022

In this study, silane-coated SiO2 nanoparticles (as-received) were used as secondary reinforcement for glass fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites, and the microhardness values of the developed composites were investigated. The nanoparticles were dispersed within the polymer epoxy at 1.5 wt.% and 3 wt.% ratios, respectively. Two different types of silane coating were used that were KH550 and KH570. The mixture of the epoxy resin and nanoparticles were subjected to ultrasonic homogenization to achieve a fine dispersibility of the SiO2 nanoparticles. Then the matrix was prepared with a suitable hardener at a weight ratio of 100:25. The strengthened polymer matrix was reinforced by woven glass fiber fabrics (primary reinforcing element). The vacuum bag method was applied to produce silane-coated nano SiO2 filled glass FRP composites. A digital microhardness testing device was used to determine the Vickers hardness values. While the pure glass/epoxy composite has resulted in a hardness of 20.69 HV, the maximum hardness value was recorded as 36.56 HV and it was obtained with 3 wt.% KH550-SiO2 filled glass/epoxy. The incorporation of silane-coated SiO2 nanoparticles has provided dramatic enhancements, approximately from 28% to 77%. The microscopic examination was also conducted via an optical microscope and the images were found helpful to explain the test results. Therefore, the findings of this study have shown that silane-coated nano SiO2 filler can be used as secondary reinforcement where high hardness and better wear resistance are desired for glass/epoxy composite applications.

Published: September 2022

Suspended substances in car washes can often be easily removed by physicochemical processes. The main problem is to remove dissolved substances such as detergents from the water. In this study, a biodegradable substance Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) was removed from the car wash wastewater by the use of Phragmites australis in the subsurface constructed wetland. For this study, 4 plexiglass reactors having an effective volume of 10.8 L with the dimensions of 15cm×45cm×20 cm were used. The experiments were conducted with vegetation which was called SCW and without vegetation which was named control group (CG), as two groups. A serial connection of two reactors was performed for each group. Up to 90% detergent removal was observed with the vegetation in the SCW with a loading rate of 75 L/(m2.d) The effluents quality showed that the treated water can be reused carwash or irrigation for landscaping.
Generation and Transmission of Action Potential in Nerve Cells and Neuron Populations Based on the Realistic Hodgkin-Huxley Neuron Model
Authors: TEKİN Ramazan
Published: September 2022

There are several types of nerve cells in the central nervous system. Thanks to the synaptic connections, these cells form large and complicated networks. However, these cells have a stereotypical electrical activity called action potential (AP) or spike. In this work, the mechanisms of formation of this typical electrical signal and the methods of transferring from one cell to another were investigated using Hodgkin-Huxley neuron model simulations. It has been seen that the formation of AP is based on the principle of "all or nothing" and that ion channel dynamics are critical in the typical form of AP. It has been shown that signal transduction between nerve cells is transmitted by post-synaptic potential and that these signals may be cell depolarizing or polarizing. Finally, it is discussed that these electrical activities are quantities that can be measured at micro and macro levels, and various methods are used for this purpose.

Published: September 2022

Thailand is an upper middle-income country located in the center of mainland Southeast Asia with a population of 66.17 million as of 2021. The aim of this review article is to illustrate the development of community mental health in our country. We have divided the article into five main sections: namely, the mental health service infrastructure, the community mental health system, human resources, mental health financing, public education, and links to other sectors. Mental health care has been integrated into primary care since 1982, resulting in a major shift in focus on mental health at the community level; however, mental health problems and the mental health gap in service accessibility remain present, especially during the current COVID-19 pandemic. Community mental health care has been extended to networks outside the health care system, including the community authorities. It has been provided with psychiatric care and rehabilitation, together with the promotion of mental health and prevention of mental disorders for improving accessibility to services, especially during a pandemic situation. Finally, future challenges to face community mental health have been outlined, such as insufficient staff to develop rehabilitation service facilities for people with chronic, serious mental illnesses; identifying supporting funding from other stakeholders; and mental health care for persons with long COVID living in the community.
An Empirical Site Amplification Model for the North–South Seismic Belt of China
Authors: Bai Yuzhu
Published: September 2022

Considering 869 ground-motion recordings from moderate-to-strong earthquakes that occurred in 2007–2019, this work investigates the variation of site amplification factors and develops an empirical site amplification model of the north–south seismic belt of China. The work first regresses a simple empirical ground-motion model (GMM) for the averaged reference site (the average shear-wave velocity for the top 30 m of the Earth (VS30) is about 760 m/s) by 322 recordings of the dataset. The regressed reference site model indicates that the slow distance attenuation still exists in earthquakes of the north–south seismic belt. Then, using the derived reference site model and 869 recordings, empirical site factors are computed and an empirical site amplification model is regressed. For the earthquakes in the north–south seismic belt, the proposed site amplification model predicts the site amplification for the 50th percentile rotated pseudospectral acceleration (RotD50 SA) with a damping ratio of 5% and periods 0.01–10 s. Moreover, the difference in site amplification factors between the north–south seismic belt of China and those of the Next Generation Attenuation (NGA) database is investigated. In general, variations of site amplification factors of the north–south seismic belt of China with VS30 are less significant than those from the NGA database. Therefore, the regional differences of ground motions caused by site effects are significant for the north–south seismic belt of China. For short periods (<1.0 s) and large values of VS30 (>300 m/s), the median site amplification of the north–south seismic belt is fitted well with most model predictions and the NGA data. The residual regional differences in the north–south seismic belt of China after site corrections can be applied to develop the more efficient global GMMs.
Telegram-каналы в борьбе за электорат: формирование гражданского активизма в период белорусского политического кризиса – 2020
Authors: Зуйкина Кристина
Published: September 2022

В статье представлены результаты эмпирического исследования политической коммуникации в белорусских Telegram-каналах в период политического кризиса в Беларуси в 2020 г. Материалом для статьи послужили более 2 тыс. постов в восьми ключевых белорусских политических Telegram-каналах разной политической направленности, собранных за два периода: две недели до дня выборов (9 августа 2020 г.) и две недели после. Такие рамки позволили сделать ряд наблюдений относительно смены коммуникативных стратегий каналов и механизмов вовлечения граждан с учетом текущей повестки. Основной метод исследования – качественно-количественный контент-анализ с элементами ивент-анализа. Результаты показали, что провластные каналы придерживались ценностно-ориентированной стратегии (“режим близости”), пытаясь апеллировать к ключевым ценностям белорусского государства. При этом в поствыборный период провластным каналам пришлось перестраивать коммуникацию, “отзеркаливая” повестку каналов оппозиции. Последние использовали стратегию обличения, уничижительно описывая действия нынешней власти, апеллируя к общему благу, достижимому после смены власти (“режим критики и оправдания”). Оппозиционные каналы изначально делали акцент на мультимедийный “нишевой” контент, высокую степень его обновления, формирование механизмов мобилизации граждан и выпуск соответствующих инструкций. Четко выстроенная коммуникативная политика позволила оппозиционным каналам сохранить устойчивые показатели уровня вовлеченности пользователей в отличие от провластных каналов.
Культура отмены в мировой политике: историко-философские корни
Authors: Чугров Сергей
Published: September 2022

На Западе со скоростью эпидемии распространяется “культура отмены” (cancel culture), ставшая механизмом применения “новой этики” (new ethics). Несмотря на то, что понятие “культура отмены” остается конъюнктурным, возникла необходимость обозначить предмет исследования этого феномена с позиций политической науки и методов историко-философской деконструкции, чтобы понять: каков генезис и истинный смысл культуры отмены и почему она именно сейчас приобрела влияние на мировую политику? Гипотеза заключается в том, что культура отмены связана социогенетическим кодом с эволюцией (более того, мутацией) глубинных смыслов европейской культуры, восходящих к сакрализации жертвенных ритуалов древности, аристотелевскому закону “исключенного третьего”, идеологии крестовых походов, к “договорной истине” позитивиста Карла Поппера и школы аналитической философии, породившим соросовский культурный универсализм “открытого общества”. Новые медиа, прежде всего социальные сети, стали инструментами давления посредством культуры отмены на международном уровне. Пандемия коронавируса высветила глубину кризиса проекта “открытого общества” и глобализации, понимаемых как нивелирование ценностей национальных культур по стандартам американской политической культуры. Меры России, Китая и ряда стран по защите своего ценностного суверенитета вызвали жесткую реакцию Запада в виде “отгораживания” и схемы “наказания”, вплоть до объявления стран-“диссидентов” изгоями, мешающими “эффективному” проекту “демократической глобализации”. В этой дискуссионной статье автор рассматривает пути нейтрализации попыток “отменить” российскую культуру и доказывает, что у России есть рычаги противодействия в виде традиционных ценностей, противостоящих “новой этике”, в также в виде формирования новых связей и открытых площадок взаимодействия на международном уровне. Учитывая циклический характер отношений противостояния и сотрудничества с западной цивилизацией, в интересах России избегать самоизоляции от Запада, строить отношения с ним, сочетая надежную защиту ценностного суверенитета и медиасреды со взвешенной стратегической эмпатией во избежание катастрофического развития событий.
Россия: изменение порядка становления мировой державы
Authors: Шахалилов Шамансур
Published: September 2022

Кризис либерального порядка вызвал обострение геополитического противоборства держав из-за нежелания США и их союзников терять свои доминирующие позиции в мире. Они усиливают политическое, экономическое и информационное давление на поднимающиеся государства, претендующие на статус новых полюсов силы, наращивают свою военную мощь, приближают инфраструктуру НАТО и других военных альянсов к их границам. Все это увеличивает опасность перерастания соперничества государств в глобальную войну. Угроза такого конфликта будет возрастать по мере ослабления влияния единственной супердержавы на международной арене, что может усилить искушение одним ударом устранить соперников, пока сохраняется ее преобладание в военной сфере. В статье подчеркивается, что единственным способом недопущения подобного катастрофического сценария развития событий является восстановление стратегического баланса сил, нарушенного после холодной войны в пользу коллективного Запада. Решение такой задачи под силу немногим государствам, среди которых особое место занимает Россия. Подвергается критике либеральный тезис о первичности экономической мощи в процессе превращения России во влиятельного игрока. Раскрывается роль военной мощи в поддержании ее национальной безопасности, обретении статуса мировой военной державы, способной восстановить стратегический баланс на международной арене. На основе анализа результатов реформирования российских вооруженных сил, модернизации систем стратегической обороны формулируется вывод о принципиальном изменении Россией традиционного порядка обретения государствами статуса мировой державы. Она создает прецедент, который, возможно, позволит ускорить трансформацию однополярного порядка в более справедливую многополярную модель мирового устройства. В статье раскрываются особенности российского подхода к сдерживанию военной мощи единственной супердержавы путем использования метода асимметричного балансирования.
A CABINE DOS Can the tractor's cabin allow the noise at the operator's station?PODE ATENUAR O RUÍDO NO POSTO DO OPERADOR?
Authors: Marques Filho Aldir Carpes , Lanças Kléber Pereira
Published: September 2022

Constant exposure to high noise levels can cause health problems for agricultural machinery operators. Machines equipped with closed cabs can attenuate noise and preserve the operator from an unhealthy condition. Some studies show that in cabin tractors it is possible to renounce the use of hearing protection, however indoor equipment and air conditioning can reach high levels of noise, which need to be further investigated. The present study aimed to evaluate the noise emitted by a cabined agricultural tractor, in different points, inside and outside cabin, in the engine rotations of 800rpm, 2180rpm and 2500rpm. In each reading, 100 noise intensity values were automatically collected, over two minutes with the aid of a digital decibel meter device. The results were compared with the levels assumed by Annex 1 of the regulatory Brazilian standard NR 15, and it was found that the cabin was able to isolate the noise emitted by the engine and its external components in 15%, however, the internal noise reached 81dB(A). The cabin can attenuate external noise and offer a healthy working environment, however, in long working hours it is recommended to use personal protective equipment such as ear protectors.
Népi hős vagy népi ördög? Érzelemgeneráló populista repertoár Orbán Viktor politikájában
Authors: Metz Rudolf
Published: September 2022

A populista politikusok megerősödését egyszerre kísérik szélsőséges pozitív és negatív érzelmi hullámok, amelyek erősítik a különböző politikai szereplők és a társadalom polarizációját. Politikai elkötelezettségtől függetlenül sokan – köztük a tudomány képviselői is – értetlenül állnak a kérdés előtt: hogyan képesek egyesek támogatni olyan vezetőket, akik politikai érdekeiktől vezérelve a vélt vagy valós problémákért előszeretettel tesznek egyes egyéneket vagy csoportokat bűnbakká, míg mások épp ezért elutasítják őket. A cikk ezt az összefüggést vizsgálja a társadalmi címkézési elméletekre (morális pánik és eufória, morális vállalkozás) és a hősies/karizmatikus vezetés elméletére támaszkodva. Ezen elméletek azt kívánják megmagyarázni, hogy az egyes egyének és társadalmi csoportok hogyan válnak a társadalom számkivetettjeivé („népi ördögökké”) vagy példaképeivé („népi hősökké”). A cikk amellett érvel, hogy a populista politikusok stratégiai megfontolások alapján indítják el saját morális vállalkozásukat, amely során kijelölik azokat, akik a korrupt elithez vagy a veszélyes/deviáns másokhoz tartoznak, és szándékosan polarizálják a róluk alkotott percepciókat. A tanulmány a populista repertoár egyes elemeinek megkülönböztetésére is kísérletet tesz, amelyet Orbán Viktor karizmatikus és populista elemeket felmutató vezetésével illusztrál. Olyan esetek kerülnek tárgyalásra, mint a migrációs válság, az implicit módon homofóbiát mutató gyermekvédelmi törvény, a felhatalmazási törvény és az Európai Néppártból való kilépés.

Authors: Agreda-Moreno Enrique Jorge , Rincón-Soto Carlos Augusto , Molina-Mora Francisco Ricardo
Published: September 2022

El análisis conceptual de los estándares de información financiera internacional trae implícita una discusión jurídica, que se puede remontar al debate entre el pensamiento iuspositivista - iusnaturalista del derecho, debate que puede dar pautas para dilucidar si los estándares del International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) están basados en principios o reglas, así como también, aportar en la conceptualización del marco teórico de las políticas contables. La discusión sobre las bases de la normatividad contable generalmente carece de una visión transdisciplinar académica y práctica. Se utilizó una metodología conceptual e interpretativa para comprender, desde la teoría del derecho y desde la perspectiva del análisis económico del derecho, el dilema sobre principios o reglas, esto contribuye a la reflexión sobre la elección de las políticas contables adecuadas para la representación financiera y contable de las organizaciones.

Published: September 2022

2019 yılının son aylarında ortaya çıkan ve tüm dünyaya hızla yayılan pandemi tüm ülkeleri sosyal, kültürel ve ekonomik olmak üzere birçok açıdan etkilemiştir. Virüsün yayılımını durdurmak amacıyla getirilen önlemler aynı zamanda ülke ekonomilerini de zorlamaya başlamıştır. Çünkü bu tedbirlerin başında gelen tam kapanma ve sosyal mesafe kuralları ekonomilerdeki talep ve arz dengesinin bozulmasına neden olmuş ve sektörlerin likitide riskini artırmıştır. Sektör işletmelerinin yaşadığı bu durum en çok bankaları ve özellikle de bankaların kredi süreçlerini etkilemiştir. Bu bağlamda çalışmada bir tahminleme yöntemi olan holt-winters yöntemi ile covid-19’un banka kredileri ve protestolu senetleri üzerindeki etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Krediler sektör bazında ayrı ayrı değerlendirilmiş böylece pandeminin sektör üzerindeki etkisinin de değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu bağlamda bazı sektör kredilerinin pandemi döneminde oldukça arttığı görülmüştür. Ancak bunun yanında tüketici kredilerinin de geçmiş yıllara göre çok arttığı tespit edilmiştir. Bu durum sadece işletmelerin değil bireylerin de pandemi döneminde ciddi bir likitide sıkıntısı çektiğini göstermektedir. Tüm bu sonuçların yanı sıra bankaların tahsilinde güçlük çektiği senet miktarlarında da oldukça büyük artış tespit edilmiştir.

Published: September 2022

Surgical removal of third molars is still the most common routine surgical procedure done by oral and maxillofacial surgeons which is usually associated with postoperative sequelae. In order to avoid or minimize post-surgical complications such as swelling, pain and trismus, patients are advised to use proteolytic enzyme and NSAID’s along with routine antibiotics.

50 patients who have bilateral symmetrical impacted mandibular third molars were included in the study. Post operatively, all patients were given antibiotics and analgesics for 5 days. Patients were given bromelain for 5 days after the procedure on one side and trypsin-chymotrypsin for 5 days on the other side with an interval of 21 days between the two procedures. Patients were recalled on day 1, day 3 and day 7 for assessment of post- operative trismus, pain and swelling based on measuring inter-incisal distance, visual analogue scale and, facial reference points.

Data was gathered and statistical assessment was done using SPSS software by using descriptive statistics and chi square test.

The conclusion drawn from the study was that bromelain has a significant effect on swelling, mouth opening and pain after surgical removal of impacted third molar than chymotrypsin. We suggest its usage in reduction of swelling and pain post operatively after surgical removal of third molar. However further studies with larger sample size and randomizations are required to confirm the same.
Direito e tecnologia “em” interregno: a regulação como problema!
Authors: Bolzan de Morais Jose Luis , Penha Pádua Thainá
Published: September 2022

O trabalho proposto objetiva interrogar acerca das condições e possibilidades de o Direito como expressão da autoridade pública atuar e funcionar como instrumento hábil para regular eficazmente tais relações – entre Direito e Tecnologia, especialmente considerando as transformações e os impactos produzidos pela Revolução da Internet nas sociedades contemporâneas, respondendo aos conflitos emergentes neste âmbito. Para responder a essas e outras questões, foi utilizado o método de abordagem hermenêutico-fenomenológico, através da reflexão interpretativa sobre o objeto e o contexto, buscando-se evidenciar as contradições entre o que diz a teoria, a lei e o que a realidade concreta apresenta. Utilizou-se a pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, constatando-se a necessidade de uma regulação supraestatal que poderá, de forma mais eficaz, estabelecer parâmetros regulatórios que dialoguem com as conquistas civilizatórias e, sobretudo, com os direitos humanos.

Authors: Ruffo Thiago Leite de Melo , Cândido Allan Cézar De Andrade , Barbosa Filho Fabio Augusto Dias
Published: September 2022

A crise socioambiental atual exige um novo olhar para a relação entre sociedade e natureza. Soluções práticas, simples e acessíveis, que ajudem a reverter o atual quadro de degradação ambiental, podem contribuir para a construção desse novo olhar. Entre essas soluções, destaca-se a Bioconstrução, uma maneira de construir dotada de preocupação ecológica desde a concepção da obra até sua execução e que busca, também, a integração ser humano-ambiente e a valorização dos materiais e técnicas locais. Nesse sentido, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo geral construir a “SalaEco”, um espaço sustentável que utiliza princípios da Bioconstrução. As técnicas utilizadas foram hiperadobe, taipa de mão, tijolo ecológico e parede de garrafa PET. Através da construção da “SalaEco” foi possível perceber e tornar ainda mais evidente a possibilidade de edificação de uma casa sustentável. Trabalhar os conceitos relacionados à Bioconstrução por meio de práticas experimentais possibilitou a construção de saberes conceituais, procedimentais e atitudinais, que fazem parte do aprendizado técnico e científico, os quais promovem o crescimento pessoal, profissional e cultural.
