The effects of Dapagliflozin in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with complications of cardiovascular disease
Authors:   Department of Pharmacy, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, National University, Jaipur, Rajasthan India., Das Subhankar
Published: January 2024

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex metabolic disorder in which concomitant insulin resistance and beta-cell impairment lead to hyperglycemia. Cardiovascular problems are more common in T2DM but after the discovery of the dapagliflozin class of SGLT2 (Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2) inhibitor, the rate of cardiovascular disease (CVD) reduced slightly including heart failure (HF). Numerous recent clinical studies emphasized that dapagliflozin as monotherapy and combined therapy with another hypoglycemic agent help to improve glycaemic control and decrease blood pressure and body weight. In the present review, the safety and efficacy of dapagliflozin have been highlighted in patients with HFrEF(Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction), after comparison with placebo and dapagliflozin. It decreased the risk of total HF hospitalizations and cardiovascular death with a low-hypoglycaemic effect. Recurrent hospitalizations are a common problem in patients with HFrEF and it is also preventable. This review article also emphasized the comparative effects of drugs and placebo to prove the effectiveness of drugs and a further reduction in the rate of heart failure. The mild adverse effect is observed in clinical trials where urinary tract infection is most common.

Published: January 2024

Orchids have been used in various traditional medicinal systems for their potential therapeutic properties. Dendrobium anceps Sw. is an important medicinal orchid used to treat various diseases. The primary objective of this study is to analyze the phytochemical profile and conduct GC-MS analysis on different solvent extracts derived from D. anceps. The shade-dried leaf powder was subjected to cold extraction using n-hexane, acetone, ethyl acetate, and methanol as solvents. Qualitative phytochemical screening was then performed on the resulting crude leaf extracts, following established standard protocols, to identify various phytocompounds. Following this, the methanol and ethyl acetate leaf extracts of D. anceps were subjected to GC-MS analysis. The results of the qualitative phytochemical screening indicated that the methanol leaf extract of D. anceps exhibited the presence of phytochemicals such as proteins, carbohydrates, alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols, saponins, steroids, tannins, and terpenoids. Further, GC-MS analysis of ethyl acetate and methanol leaf extracts showed 33 different phytochemical compounds (18 in ethyl acetate and 15 in methanol leaf extracts). The major compounds recorded in ethyl acetate leaf extract are oleic acid, phytol, hexadecanoic acid methyl ester, 2H-1-Benzopyran-4,7-diol, 3,4-dihydro-2-phenyl-. Compounds such as oleic acid, flavone, thujopsene, bicyclo[7.7.0]hexadec-1[9]-ene, 1-eicosene, and 1-docosene were identified in both the leaf extracts. The findings of the present study conclude that the phytocompounds identified in these leaf extracts possess several biological activities such as antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. Further research on this plant has the potential to unveil novel bioactive compounds that can be utilized in the development of pharmaceuticals for various health conditions, thereby reducing our reliance on synthetic drugs.

Authors: Chantre da Silva Johny
Published: January 2024

O uso de fibras vegetais em substituição das sintéticas é cada vez mais valorizado, sendo usadas como reforço em matrizes poliméricas nas mais variadas aplicações como, por exemplo, na construção civil e nas indústrias automobilística, têxtil e de embalagens. Isto se deve ao fato das fibras naturais serem biodegradáveis, menos abrasivas, possuírem baixa densidade e baixo custo, além de excelentes propriedades térmicas, mecânicas e acústicas. Porém, as fibras naturais podem ser aprimoradas via modificação, potencializando suas propriedades físicas e químicas. As modificações variam de acordo com a natureza da fibra e sua aplicação final, exigindo assim, tratamentos químicos diferenciados. Assim, este documento aborda o uso de fibras naturais e modificadas como aditivos em matrizes para diversas finalidades e os tratamentos de base para essas aplicações.

Brazil is now the world's fourth-largest banana producer in the world with an annual production of 6.953,747 tons per year. In Brazil, the banana (Musa spp.) stands out, not only because it is the most widespread, but also because it is the most consumed by all social classes. Cassava is a renewable, almost unlimited resource and one of the most abundant substances in nature. It is one of the most important starchy root crops of the tropics used for food and industrial purposes. The present study evaluated the use of biofilms based on cassava starch in maintaining the quality and shelf life of the 'Prata' banana at room temperature. The filmogenic solution was created using the casting technique, with adaptations. Additionally, 2.6% cassava starch (m/v) + 2 g of gelatin + 100 mL of the aqueous extract were used. Additionally, the biofilm was applied in the film-forming solution for 1 minute and suspended for further drying at room temperature. After this process, were evaluated the loss of fresh mass, and total soluble solids. The present study revealed the efficiency of biofilm coating with and without gelatin to reduce the rate of enzymatic browning and increase the shelf life of bananas. It was possible to verify a smaller reduction in fresh weight loss in the treatments. Besides, no significant difference was observed in the addition of gelatin to the parameters evaluated in the fruit.

WIKI: ferramenta de TI para gestão do conhecimento
Authors: Campos Cairo Aparecido
Published: January 2024

Uma das maiores dificuldades das empresas está em como reter o conhecimento de seus colaboradores. Nem todo conhecimento desenvolvido é armazenado de forma explícita em documentos ou sistemas. A maior parte do conhecimento está registrado na mente das pessoas de forma tácita. Então, quando um funcionário muda de empresa, parte do conhecimento é perdido. Uma forma de evitar a perda de conhecimento é converter o conhecimento tácito em explícito e armazená-lo em um sistema. Um exemplo de sistema que pode ser utilizado é o do tipo wiki. Wikis são ferramentas colaborativas que podem ser usadas para criação de artigos sem que seja necessário conhecimento técnico. Porém, ao utilizar um wiki, ele possibilita não só a conversão do conhecimento tácito para explícito (Externalização), mas também a conversão de explícito para tácito (Internalização) e a conversão do conhecimento explícito para explícito (Combinação), tendo-se, portanto, um ciclo de conversão de conhecimento que é conhecido como espiral SECI. Com o presente estudo, ao realizar uma revisão de literatura, busca-se entender melhor as características que definem um wiki e o seu papel ao ser utilizado como uma ferramenta de TI para a gestão e conversão do conhecimento.

Published: January 2024

Uma gama de percalços da ordem da saúde coletiva revela a indispensabilidade da Atenção Primária à Saúde no combate às iniquidades. Olhando internamente, nas nuances da rede de saúde, ainda que bastante efetiva, captura-se a imagem de um sistema fragilizado e por vezes fragmentado, em que suas particularidades são pouco visualizadas. Nesse sentido, o presente manuscrito incube-se de relacionar a vivência e a prática de discentes de enfermagem na construção do Diagnóstico Situacional de uma Unidade Básica de Saúde e de sua população adstrita. Para essa elaboração, resgataram-se conceitos de equidade, de determinantes sociais e de territorialidade como meio de entender a respeito das demandas em saúde das populações. Foi possível observar que as vivências proporcionaram aspectos positivos, como a identificação de obstáculos que dificultam a promoção da saúde e de suas possíveis soluções, e revelaram a necessidade de uma comunicação eficiente e articulada entre os discentes, os pacientes e as equipes de saúde. Essa integração, por sua vez, favoreceu a troca de conhecimentos, convergiu para o aprimoramento profissional e colaborou para a expansão do desenvolvimento pessoal e profissional no âmbito da saúde.

O bens naturais amazônicos tornam-se recursos naturais sob a lógica da dinâmica de reprodução do capital na metrópole Manaus, sob a égide da indústria da produção de biocosméticos. A categoria de análise geográfica território, privilegiada neste trabalho, favorece a compreensão da dimensão espacial das indústrias de biocosméticos, sobretudo para anuir redes produtivas regionais. A extração/exploração de tais recursos é existente desde o século XVII quando da extração das drogas do sertão, em uma primeira fase do extrativismo na Amazônia, e, neste ínterim, atendia o mercado europeu, e contemporaneamente, na virada do século XXI, sob a narrativa de agentes promotores do desenvolvimento regional, a bioeconomia e o setor de biocosméticos protagonizam como aqueles promissores no desenvolvimento econômico no Amazonas e na Amazônia, quando em voga a reprimarização da economia baseada na exploração de bens da natureza , que são em primeira instância, riquezas locais, dos povos e do território amazônico, e ao serem apropriados pela indústria para o mercado sob a mediação das relações de reprodução do capital, se tornam em recurso natural a fim de comporem a lógica econômica da mesma reprodução, a capitalista.

Adhesion of titanium coatings applied by cold spraying on selected metal substrates
Authors: Makrenek M.
Published: January 2024

Measurement of the adhesion of a Ti coating applied by cold spraying on metal substrates with different elastic modulus. An attempt to analytically describe the experimental results, considering cold gas spray parameters such as working gas, pressure p and temperature T.Ti coating was sprayed on flat bars made of metal: copper, magnesium, brass, titanium, Al 7075, Al 2024 and steel with dimensions of 4x50x400 mm. All coatings were applied under the same spray conditions (p = 3.8 MPa, T = 800C, spray distance l = 50 mm, and spray spead V = 400 mm/s). The state of plastic deformation of coatings and substrates was examined using optical methods, and the adhesion strength was measured with the POSITEST tester.The experimental results are presented graphically. The adhesion force as a function of the relative modulus of elasticity showed a maximum. At this time, the mutual penetration depth of the coating and the substrate showed a minimum. The extremes of the relationships mentioned above occurred for points where the relative modulus of elasticity took the value one. The curve described by formula (1) was fitted to the distribution of adhesion points as a function of the relative elastic modulus. The function parameter described by formula (1) is related to the spray parameters (p, T).To achieve a better accuracy of the analytical description of the adhesion of coatings deposited with cold gas, tests should be carried out on a larger number of substrates. The validity of the presented interpretation should be checked by applying coatings from other materials.In coating technologies, adhesion is a key concept. A coating with high adhesion strength is used primarily in regeneration and anti-corrosion protection processes. The analytical relationship between adhesion, relative modulus of elasticity and cold gas spray parameters will significantly speed up the selection of optimal spray parameters. Cold spray technology is a cost-intensive technology, so the economic element is not without significance.The article presents a method for limiting the number of variables on which the quality of the applied coatings depends. The relationship between the adhesion force, the relative elastic modulus and the selected spray parameters are indicated.
Numerical investigation of the effect of topology optimisation methods parameters in the topology quality, the strength, and the computational cost
Authors: Ait Ouchaoui A. , Nassraoui M. , Radi B.
Published: January 2024

The literature abounds with many distinct topology optimisation methods, many of which share common parameter configurations. This study demonstrates that alternative parameter configurations may produce better results than common parameters. Additionally, we try to answer two fundamental questions: identifying the most effective topology optimisation method and determining the optimal parameter selection within this optimisation method. In order to respond to these questions, we conducted a comparative and objective analysis of topology optimisation methods.This paper evaluates four prominent topology optimisation methodologies, SIMP, RAMP, BESO, and LSM, based on three essential criteria: structural strength, topology quality, and computational cost. We conducted an in-depth examination of 12,500 topology optimisation results spanning a broad range of critical parameter values. These outcomes were generated using MATLAB codes. In the meantime, we comprehensively compared our findings with the existing literature on this subject.As predicted, our chosen parameters had a substantial effect on the topology quality, structural strength, and computational cost of the topology optimisation outcomes. Across the 12,500 results, many parameter combinations appeared to produce favourable results compared to conventional parameters commonly found in the existing literature.This study focuses exclusively on four specific topology optimisation methods; however, its findings may be extrapolated to apply to other methodologies. Additionally, while it extensively examines the effects of parameters on topology quality, strength, and computational cost, it does not encompass an exploration of these parameters' impacts on other performance criteria.Novel parameter configurations for topology optimisation have been identified, yielding enhanced outcomes in terms of topology quality, structural strength, and computational efficiency.

Authors: SHARMA R C , BANIK P
Published: January 2024

The study was conducted to estimate the nutrient-use efficiency and soil nutrient balance of integrated nutrient management, five combinations of organic and inorganic sources of nutrients. Both partial factor productivity and agronomic- use efficiency of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium was recorded maximum in F3 (70% RD of NPK through inorganic fertilizers + 30% N through FYM), F2 (70% RD of NPK through inorganic fertilizers + 30% N through vermicompost) and F1 (recommended dose (RD) of NPK (150:26:33) through fertilizers), respectively. Apparently recovery efficiency for N and K was highest in F1, whereas P in F3. Physiological-use efficiency (PFP) was highest in F3, followed by F1 and F2 treatment. INM showed actual N gain but apparent N losses. Maximum actual N gain was recorded where nutrients were applied through equal proportion (50:50) of organic and inorganic sources. Similar trend was recorded for actual and apparent P loss/gain as recorded for N. Results showed losses in actual K but gain in apparent K for all the treatments.
Perpetuation of Psidium species through stooling and assessment of growth behaviour of clonal rootstocks under subtropical conditions
Authors: SAROJ P L
Published: January 2024

The investigation was carried out to standardize vegetative means of mass perpetuation of Psidium species through stooling technique and to assess growth behaviour of clonal rootstocks under subtropical conditions. The coppicing capacity among Psidium species varied with maximum number of desirable shoots/ plant in Psidium chinensis (27.33) and minimum in P. friedrichsthalianum (9.12). All the Psidium species under investigation, viz Psidium cujavillis, P. molle, P. chinensis and P. cattleianum except P. friedrichsthalianum can be successfully perpetuated by stooling with the combined treatment of IBA+NAA (7500 ppm). The rooting success varied between 9.53 and 100.00%, and field establishment of rooted shoots between 0.0-97.13%. The P. chinensis gave cent per cent rooting with 93.13% field establishment while P. friedrichsthalianum gave only 9.53 % rooting and no plants were established under field conditions. The remaining species, viz P. cujavillis, P. cattleianum and P. molle gave more than 91.69% rooting and more than 84.03% establishment of rooted shoots. The correlation between rooting versus biochemical and anatomical parameters revealed that higher phenol content and C:N ratio of stooled plants as well as more intercellular space and breadth of sclerenchymatous cells have better impact on rooting while higher protein and longer length of sclerenchymatous cells did not make any impact. Under uniform management, maximum plant height (106.90 cm) was obtained in P. cattleianum while minimum in P. chinensis (55.80 cm) after six months of transplanting. The stock girth was also maximum in P. cattleianum (3.91 cm), followed by P. molle (3.69 cm), P. cujavillis ( 3.32 cm) and minimum in P. chinensis (2.89 cm). The number of branches, intermodal length (cm), number of leaves / plant, average leaf area (cm2) and total leaf area / plant (cm2) also varied significantly. Based on initial growth behaviour, these Psidium species can be relatively categorized as dwarf (P. chinensis), semidwarf (P. molle) and vigourous species (P. cattleianum and P. cujavillis).
Quality production of kharif onion (Allium cepa) in response to biofertilizers inoculated organic manures
Authors: YEPTHO AVITOLI K , SINGH A K , KANAUJIA S P , SINGH V B
Published: January 2024

Onion (Allium cepa L.) is a highly nutrient responsive vegetable crop. In the light of fragmental information available on the response of kharif onion to biofertilizers enriched organic manures, a field experiment was conducted during rainy (kharif) season of 2006–08 on acidic kaolinitic Rhodustalf soil representing foothill conditions of Nagaland. Amongst different organic manures, poultry manure produced the highest response on bulb yield (21.18 tonnes/ha), followed by FYM (16.74 tonnes/ha), vermicompost (14.37 tonnes/ha) = pig manure (12.74 tonnes/ha). Incorporation of Azotobacter chroococcum into different organic manures failed to improvise any significant changes in bulb yield due to high initial microbial abundance in organic manures. Different growth-attributing characters followed the similar response. Poultry manure similarly registered highest nutrient uptake as kg/ha (26.39 N – 10.91 P – 55.96 K), followed by FYM (22.80 N – 9.10 P – 47.90 K) with Pig manure and vermicompost (15.08/16.72 N – 7.30/10.91 P – 51.02/55.96 K) displaying no significant difference. Economic analysis in terms of cost : benefit ratio supported these observations. These studies proposed that if organic manures possess enough initial microbial load, the biofortification of organic manures need not be exercised.

Petrographic and heavy mineral compositions of the Oligocene Barail sandstones exposed in and around Longsa village of Wokha District, Nagaland, have been utilized for provenance interpretation. Grey and yellow coloured sandstones of the study area are comprised of angular to sub-rounded monocrystalline, non-undulatory quartz and the various lithic fragments. The overall composition of sandstones (Q-90.10%, F-1.70 %, RF-8.18%) matches with those of sublith-arenites category. The heavy mineral assemblage of the studied Barail sandstones is represented by euhedral/rounded to sub-rounded grains of zircon, tourmaline, rutile, kyanite, sillimanite, andalusite, titanite, staurolite and iron oxide. The studied sandstone composition suggests that the Barail sediments were derived from mixed provenance. Heavy mineral analysis also corroborates the above.

Southern Granulite Terrane (SGT) of India preserves extensive high-grade granulite facies rocks of Archaean and Proterozoic age. The SGT is divided into number of blocks by several suture/shear zone. Structural investigations on the basement gneisses and younger mafic/ultramafic dikes have been carried out within the Salem block which is part of Northern Granulite Block (NGB), north of the Cauvery Suture Zone (CSZ). The present work emphasizes various scale fold styles and other structural patterns of the area, which includes regionally metamorphosed high-grade rocks as basement for the multiple ultramafic intrusions to the north of Cauvery Suture Zone (CSZ) which highlights the finite strain geometry, complex deformation pattern and high-grade metamorphism. Structural map of the study area is prepared showing two generations of folding, namely F1 whose axial trend is NE-SW, subparallel with general trend of gneissic foliation and are tight isoclinal folds while F2 which are open folds with axial trend NW-SE.E-W structural cross section across the foliation planes, characterizes antiformal and synformal fold patterns of the basement due to varying dip directions which also reflects type-3 interference pattern of folding. Mesoscopic scale shear zones of dextral kinematics in response to E-W collision during Paleo-Meso Archean time, delta type porphyroclasts, S-C fabrics with the dextral movement of CSZ system, Riedel shear, thrust imbricates implying duplex structures, rotation of mafic boudins along shear zones are the most prominent ductile structural features of this area. Brittle structures like different sets of cross cutting joints and faults indicate younger deformation as well. Petrography of major lithologies has classified them into amphibolite gneiss, migmatite gneiss, charnockites, granulites and mylonites as basement rocks to the younger pyroxenite intrusions. Typical textures like, perthite, granulose, reaction rims, sieve textures and microstructures like S-C fabrics, kink bands, rotated porphyroclasts, etc are observed within the basement rocks. Coarse grained textures with fractured porphyroclasts of garnets indicating the water interactions and retrogradations within the granulite facies rocks. Reaction rims observed in charnockites and granulites are indicative of retrogression during shearing. The coarse grained cummulate nature of pyroxenites neither represent deformation nor metamorphism.

This paper presents the results of Eocene molluscan fauna and benthic foraminifera from the Upper Disang Formation of Indo-Myanmar Ranges (IMR) and discussed here the biostratigraphic zone and depositional environment. These fauna and foraminifera are composed of Bivalvia viz. Noetia magnifica, Pitar (Calpitaria) carteri, Corbula (Bicorbula) rakhiensis, Gastropoda viz. Turritella sp., Turbinella premekranica, Lyria samanaensis and foraminifera Nummulites sp. On the basis of molluscan fauna Noetia magnifica, the biostratigraphic zone (Zone-I) is established and assigned middle-late Eocene age to Upper Disang Formation of IMR, Nagaland. The presence of invertebrate fossils and benthic foraminifers indicate a warm tropical-subtropical climate and shallow marine (neritic) depositional environment during the sedimentation of the Upper Disang Formation.

L1-orienterad grammatikundervisning i L2-kontext
Authors: Bandh Erik , Collberg Philippe , Lundin Katarina
Published: January 2024

Artikeln beskriver hur en grammatikdidaktisk modell utformad för en L1-kontext kan användas för grammatikundervisning såväl som för ett språk- och skrivutvecklande arbete i en L2-kontext. Eftersom klassrummen i Sverige, Danmark och Norge allt mer blir språkligt heterogena behöver lärare kunna erbjuda en språkutvecklande under­visning för elever med skilda språkliga förutsättningar. Den modell som presenteras bygger på explicit undervisning med utgångspunkt i det gemensamma typplatsschemat (se Bilaga 1). Den har som syfte att fungera som redskap för ett språkutvecklande arbete och samtidigt bidra till att befästa grammatikkunskaper. I artikeln presenteras resultat från en interventionsstudie där modellen använts i grammatikundervisning och process­skrivning i en klass med L2-elever. Utifrån begreppen appropriering, internalisering och implementering undersöks elevernas grammatikinlärning som den yttrar sig dels i deras svar på grammatikprov, dels i deras hantering av lärarens textkommentarer. Elevernas provsvar ger en bild av i vilken grad de har approprierat den grammatiska kunskapen, medan hanteringen av lärarens textkommentarer kan visa huruvida de även har inter­naliserat och eventuellt också implementerat grammatikkunskapen. I analysen jämförs elevernas prov och texter med fokus på satshierarki, inversion och V2 samt nominal­fraser med fokus på kongruens och bestämdhet – områden som tidigare visat sig vara centrala i språkutveckling och samtidigt särskilt problematiska vid inlärningen av grammatik. Analyserna tyder på att eleverna approprierat grammatikkunskaperna i olika utsträckning och att somliga är på väg mot en internalisering av kunskaperna. En slutsats är att arbetssättet visserligen kräver stora insatser av lärare och elever men att de formella grammatikkunskaperna och det praktiska textarbetet verkar gynna varandra.
Definithet, bestämdhet och artikelbruk – en missad svårighet i L2-svenska?
Authors: Flyman Mattsson Anna , Nyqvist Eeva-Liisat
Published: January 2024

En välkänd svårighet för inlärare av L2-svenska är komplexiteten kring definithet, bestämdhet och artikelbruk (DBA). Flera studier har indikerat att inlärare som saknar morfologisk bestämdhetsmarkering i sitt L1 har svårare för strukturer inom DBA, men att även inlärare med motsvarande strukturer i sitt L1 har rapporterats ha svårigheter. I denna artikel redogör vi för hur den komplexitet som DBA utgör i svenskan presenteras i svenska Sfi-läromedel för inlärare med varierande L1 (sju bokserier) och finländska läromedel avsedda för finskspråkiga tonåringar som lär sig svenska i grundskolan och gymnasiet (sex bokserier). De olika läromedlens CEFR-nivåer varierar mellan A1 och B1. Resultaten visar att den komplexa helheten i DBA inte adresseras i något av läro­medlen. De finska läromedlen behandlar fler detaljer kring denna problematik än de svenska – till exempel substantivets form efter adjektiviska pronomen – troligen på grund av att DBA utgör en notorisk svårighetskälla för finskspråkiga svenskinlärare. Även det faktum att svensk grammatik kontrasteras med den finska stöder detta antag­ande. Gemensamt för läromedlen i båda länderna är att direkt anafor får mer utrymme än de olika typerna av definit betydelse, vilket inte stämmer överens med hur vanlig den är i svenskan samt att förhållandet mellan form och betydelse inte tas upp. En kon­sekvens av denna förenkling av DBA-problematiken är att det i stället kan försvåra inlärningen, oavsett om inlärarna har motsvarigheter i sitt L1 eller inte.
Grammatikken og læreren

Leseforståelsen til andrespråkselever henger tett sammen med deres metaspråklige bevissthet (Brenne, 2005; Stone et al., 2004; Kuo & Anderson, 2006; Clahsen et al., 2003; Carlisle, 2004, 2007). Hvis læreren selv har god grammatisk kunnskap, kan denne koblingen utnyttes didaktisk (Lyster, 2002; Bowers et al., 2010). Vi rapporterer her fra en undersøkelse av et norsk kommunalt kurs som ble etablert for å gi lærerne et bedre språkdidaktisk fundament i leseopplæringen. Vi spør hva slags aktiviteter for styrking av elevenes metaspråklige bevissthet lærerne rapporterer å ha gjennomført i klassene etter kursforelesningen, og videre spør vi hvordan disse aktivitetene ser ut til å være knyttet til innholdet i kurset. Gjennom ikke-deltakende observasjon fulgte vi kurset og de påfølgende lærerpresentasjonene, og vi har analysert læremiddelet som ble lagt til grunn i kurset. Vi finner at kurset og læremiddelet har store faglige og strukturelle mang­ler. Disse manglene reflekteres delvis i lærernes didaktiske opplegg presentert i etterkant av kurset. Lærerne blander sammen lyd- og ordstruktur, og de bruker lite grammatisk terminologi. Samtidig vitner de beskrevne didaktiske oppleggene om at lærerne har grepet hovedpoenget i kurset, nemlig at man kan øke den metaspråklige bevisstheten til elevene ved å utforske form-siden ved språk.

Published: January 2024

The Artik Reservoir, located in Shirak region within the Karangu River basin, is poised for reconstruction beginning in 2023. This initiative is spearheaded by a consortium consisting of the Institute of Water Problems and HydroEngineering after Academician I.V. Yeghiazarov CJSC and the Shushi Technological University Foundation, commissioned by the Water Committee of RA MAIE. The reservoir, essential for irrigating agricultural lands in five villages, namely Nor Kyank, Panik, Vardakar, Anushavan and Meghrashen, faces reconstruction due to a dam failure during floods in 1994. The affected communities, integral to the Artik expanded community, are primarily engaged in agriculture, facing income constraints & labor migration due to water scarcity. Despite this, the region boasts historical and cultural monuments, presenting an opportunity for diverse forms of tourism. The region is also diverse in flora & fauna representatives with a significant number red listed since 2010. The article emphasizes the importance of adhering to environmental and social standards within the framework of the project, as well as seeks to contribute valuable insights to the ongoing discourse surrounding the project, highlighting the critical role of sustained environmental and social studies throughout its development. The primary objective is to assess the expected benefits and risks associated with the Artik Reservoir Reconstruction Project, with a particular focus on its environmental and social aspects, ultimately striving for a balanced and sustainable outcome.
