Élet és tudomány: az agrárközgazdasági kutatás időszerű kérdései az MTA újjáválasztott Agrárközgazdasági Bizottságának nézőpontjából
Authors: Lakner Zoltán
Published: October 2022

A tanulmány célja kettős: egyrészt annak elemzése, hogy a nemzetközi és hazai agrárközgazdasági kutatások előtt milyen főbb kihívások állnak a 21. század második évtizedében, másrészt annak vizsgálata, hogy a korszerű tudománymetria módszertanát alkalmazva hogyan ítélhető meg a magyar agrárközgazdasági kutatás helye, szerepe a nemzetközi összehasonlítás tükrében. A szerző alapvetően a szakirodalmi adatbázisok elemzésére, a témakörbe tartozó nemzetközi és hazai források vizsgálatára, valamint saját tapasztalataira támaszkodik elemzései során. Megállapítható, hogy a nemzetközi agrárközgazdasági kutatásoknak jelentős, új kérdésekre kell választ keresniük, mert a népességnövekedés, a klímaváltozás, valamint a táplálkozás és egészségi állapot és annak gazdasági terhei közötti kapcsolat analízise számos megoldatlan, globális jelentőségű problémát vet fel. A magyar agrárközgazdasági kutatás az elmúlt évtizedekben mindvégig képes volt arra, hogy sokoldalúan elemezze a gyorsan változó valóságot ezzel is segítve a gazdaságpolitikai döntés-előkészítést, a vállalkozások fejlődését, támogatva a szakemberképzést. A közvetkező évtizedek növekvő fontosságú feladata, hogy még inkább képesek legyünk a hazai tudományos eredmények felmutatására a nemzetközi színtéren, fokozottan integrálódva az agrárközgazdasági kutatások főáramába. Ehhez – sok minden más mellett – az alkalmazott módszerkészlet tudatos bővítésére, a kutatói utánpótlás átfogó fejlesztésére van szükség.
A magyar élelmiszerek megítélése és vásárlása a koronavírus-járvány hatására - generációs különbségek
Authors: Garai-Fodor Mónika , Popovics Anett
Published: October 2022

A koronavírus-járvány hatására az élelmiszer-fogyasztási szokások hazánkban is jelentősen megváltoztak. A járvány újabb és újabb hullámainak hatására a fogyasztók tudatosabbá váltak beszerzéseikben, a helyi üzletek, piacok és a házhoz szállítás szerepe felértékelődött és megnőtt a bizalom a helyi élelmiszerek iránt. Az elmúlt két évben az online vásárlás trendje is felerősödött az élelmiszer-beszerzések tekintetében és a fogyasztók a hazai termékek esetén is változatlanul a jó minőségű, megbízható forrásból származó élelmiszereket részesítették előnyben. Jelen tanulmányunk egy korábbi kutatásunk folytatása: a szekunder források vizsgálata után primer kutatás elvégzésével arra kerestük a választ, hogy a koronavírus-járvány milyen mértékben hatott a magyar élelmiszerek vásárlására, különös tekintettel a generációk közötti különbségekre. Vizsgálatunkban kvantitatív eljárást alkalmaztunk, a sztenderdizált kérdőív segítségével lefolytatott online megkérdezés után 1151 válaszadó véleményének feldolgozásával vontunk le következtetéseket. Eredményeink alapján elmondható, hogy a magyar élelmiszerek vásárlása általánosságban előtérbe került a koronavírus-járvány hatására. A hazai élelmiszerek vásárlásának legfőbb motivációja a magyar gazdaság támogatása volt. Egyfajta érzelmi kötődés alakult ki a vizsgált időszakban: a válaszadók véleménye szerint a hazai élelmiszerek vásárlása összekapcsolódott a magyar gazdaság előmozdításával. Generációs aspektusból vizsgálva az X generáció tagjai részesítették leginkább előnyben a magyar élelmiszereket, ám kutatásunkból az is kiderül, hogy az Y és a Z generáció meggyőzésére is reális esély van további népszerűsítő kampányok keretében. A magyar élelmiszerek vásárlásának ösztönzését véleményünk szerint érzelmi alapú, a jó minőséget és a vásárlási élményt fókuszba helyező kommunikációs aktivitással lehetne megvalósítani, amely a közösséghez tartozás érzésén keresztül ismertetné meg a fiatalabb generációval a helyi termékek előnyeit.

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the certificate programs that perioperative nurses working in different surgical clinics participate in on their self efficacy-sufficiency levels.

Methods: The sample of the study consisted of 68 perioperative nurses. The data were collected using "Personal Information Form" and "Self-Efficacy Scale". A pre-test was applied to the participants before the certificate program, and a post-test was applied at the end of the program.

Results: It was determined that the nurses' self-efficacy scale pre-test total score before the certification program was 90.44 ± 9.27, and the post-test total score after the certification program was 90.70 ± 9.04. While there was a significant decrease in starting behavior after the certificate program in the sub-dimensions of the scale. It was found that there was a significant increase in the sub-dimensions of completing behavior and struggling with obstacles.

Conclusion: Certificate programs have been found to be beneficial in the formation of behavioral changes of perioperative nurses and in increasing their self-efficacy perception.

Authors: KESER M. Gizem , UNUSAN Nurhan
Published: October 2022

Ailesel Akdeniz ateşi otozomal geçişli ve en sık görülen otoinflamatuar hastalıklardan birisidir. Özellikle Avrupa kökenli bazı etnik gruplarda daha yaygındır. Türkler, Kuzey Afrikalılar, Araplar, Yahudiler ve Ermenilerde sıklıkla görülmektedir. Ülkemiz de ise prevalansı 1/400 ve 1/1000 arasında değişmektedir. Patogenezinde 16p13.3. kromozomda lokalize olan 10 ekzondan oluşan MEFV genindeki mutasyon etkilidir. MEFV geni 781 amino asitlik bir proteini (pirin veya marenostrin) kodlamaktadır ve inflamasyon durumunda intranükleer peptidlerin transkripsiyonunu düzenlemektedir. Klinik olarak Ailesel Akdeniz ateşi, tekrarlayan ateş ve semptomların eşlik ettiği belirgin akut faz yanıtı (lökositoz, yüksek eritrosit sedimantasyon hızı, fibrinojen, C reaktif protein, serum amiloid) ile karakterizedir. Atakları uyaran ve sonlandıran nedenler tam olarak bilinmemekle birlikte enfeksiyon, menstrüasyon, cerrahi girişim gibi çeşitli faktörlerin, soğuk iklim koşulları, yüksek yağlı diyet ve fazla fiziksel aktivitenin atakları tetikleyebileceği bilinmektedir. Yürütülen az sayıdaki çalışmada Ailesel Akdeniz ateşi hastalığına sahip bireylerin mikrobiyotasında hakim olan türün de sağlıklı bireylerin mikrobiyota örüntülerinden farklı olduğu gözlenmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı Ailesel Akdeniz ateşi hastalığına sahip bireylerin atak sıklık ve sürelerine etki eden başta diyet örüntüsü dahil olmak üzere bazı faktörleri incelenmeyi amaçlamaktadır.
Pelvik Organ Prolapsusu Olan Postmenapozal Kadınlarda Pesser Kullanımı ile Pesserle Beraber Lokal Östrojen Kullanımının Vajinal ve Üriner Etkilerinin Karşılaştırılması
Authors: SAHİN Bugra , CURA ŞAHİN Gizem
Published: October 2022

Aim: To investigate and compare the vaginal and urinary effects of the use of a vaginal pessary ring and vaginal local oestrogen together with pessary prescribed for postmenopausal women with pelvic organ prolapse (POP) who did not wish to have a POP operation.

Method: This prospective case-control study was conducted in the Gynaecology and Obstetrics Clinics of Turhal State Hospital and Tokat State Hospital between May 2021 and July 2021. Two groups were formed of 25 patients given a vaginal pessary ring for treatment, and 25 who were given vaginal local oestrogen together with the pessary ring. Comparisons were made between the groups in respect of age, gravida, parity, pelvic pain, vaginal itching-discharge-dryness-bleeding, findings of urinary incontinence, the presence of bacteria in the urine, and white blood cells (WBC) and c reavtive protein (CRP) values.

Results: In the comparisons of women using pessary alone and those using local oestrogen together with the pessary, the complaints of pelvic pain (p=0.034) and vaginal dryness (p=0.037) were determined at a higher rate in the group that used the pessary alone.

Conclusion: The reason for the higher rate of pelvic pain and vaginal dryness seen in the women using pessary alone is that without oestrogen the pessary has the effect of a foreign body on the vaginal mucosa, thereby increasing vaginal inflammation. However, local oestrogen increased the complaint of unnecessary vaginal bleeding in some patients. Taking all these findings in to consideration, the use of pessary and local oestrogen should be applied carefully in POP treatment.

Published: October 2022

The composition of coconut water contains amino acids, organic acids, vitamins, and sugars that can be used for microbial growth and is very suitable for use as a medium for yeast growth. Saccharomyces cereviceae L is a yeast-type microorganism that is well known by the public as bakerâs yeast. The initial method for producing yeast was using the yeast culture method on a substrate in the form of coconut water and adding boiled sweet potato as an additional source of nutrients. Observations were made every 6, 12, and 24 hours. Local yeast from fermented coconut water was then applied to the process of making commercial bread. The study found several important things: 1.) The length of time of fermentation gave a very significant effect (P>0.01) at a significant level of 1% on the volume of bread development, moisture content, and organoleptic tests (color and aroma) of the bread produced. 2.) Appropriate treatment in producing good bread products (12 hours of fermentation) the average value of water content for each variable was 35.193%, expansion volume 123%), and color organoleptic test 3.6 hedonic scale really like, smell 3.667 hedonic scales really like. 3.) Microbes identified on petri dishes and on slanted agar were pure cultures of S. cereviceae L. Morphologically, S. cereviceae L. colonies had an oval shape, cream color, glossy, smooth, and flat surface characteristics, and had a distinctive aroma.
Ecotheology as a Basic Human Attitude to the Environment
Authors: Yuda Mr. , Jonathan Mr.
Published: October 2022

Discussions about the relationship between theology and ecology are getting more and more attention from various perspectives, not only in the Christian community but also in various communities (religions) in this world. The current state of the environment has been described as a âcrisisâ, and as an âearth destructionâ. Every year about ten thousand species are wiped out on earth. Soon the world will be wiped out with a large number of extinctions of that species. Soon the world will be wiped out with a large number of extinctions of that species. The church doesnât really care about this environmental damage problem. The church must be a pioneer in maintaining and safeguarding the universe created by God. All life on planet earth is being threatened with a âsecond deathâ. The first death is human death and the second death will soon follow, namely the death of the entire system of life. This environmental crisis is also seen in Indonesia, such as environmental pollution, especially plastic waste in the oceans, floods triggered by damage to ecosystems, dry seasons that cause drought, and forest fires that cause smog impacts on neighboring countries such as Singapore and Malaysia. Not to mention other disasters such as landslides, and others, which are caused by the ecological crisis. Ecotheology is expected to provide understanding and solutions to this problem.

Indoor and outdoor ultrafine, accumulation mode, and coarse fractions collected at two elementaryschools (S1 and S2) in Hanoi capital, Vietnam were characterized in terms of mass, numberconcentrations, particle morphology, and chemical composition to assess the indoor air quality atthe examined schools. The sampling campaigns were performed simultaneously indoors andoutdoors for three consecutive weeks at each school. Indoor average concentrations of CO2 and COat both schools were below the limit values recommended by the American Society of Heating,Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (1000 ppm for CO2) and World Health Organization(7 mg/m3 for CO). Indoor mass concentrations of PM10 and CO2 at S1 and S2 were stronglyinfluenced by the presence of children and their activities indoors whereas the numberconcentration of particlesseemed not to be impacted by occupantsâ activities. Water-soluble ionscommonly presented unimodal distribution for indoor and outdoor airborne particles at S1 and S2,which accounted for typically a proportion of around 3.5-5% of the total mass of particles. Oxygen(O) was the most abundant element in all fractions, followed by carbon (C) for indoor and outdoorparticles.

The numerous applications of citric acid have increased its demand. It is of great importance toproduce citric acid using adequate monosaccharides and dissacharides as they have proven to beeasily catabolyzed and decomposed by Fungi when compared to polysaccharides. The superiorityof sucrose to other sugars is a result of strong extracellular mycelium-bound invertase of A. nigerwhich rapidly hydrolyses sucrose at low pH. This project was undertaken to isolate, screen andproduce citric acid in a submerged fermentation by four different strains of Aspergillus niger usingsucrose. Aspergillus niger was isolated and characterized from garden soil. Citric acid productionfrom Aspergillus niger in a submerged basal medium was quantitatively determined usingtitrimetric method. Aspergillus niger strain HUS1 (ASHUS1), Aspergillus niger strain HUS7(ASHUS7), Aspergillus niger strain HG49 (ASHG49) and Aspergillus niger strain AN8 (ASAN8)showed significant accumulation of citric acid from the submerged basal medium, of whichASHUS 1 significantly (?<0.05) recorded the most yield from the production after 9 days ofincubation.

Leaf surface of plants acts as a sink for the deposition of air pollutants in the urban environment andis considered an ecologically sustainable cost-effective strategy to mitigate the impact of air pollution.In this context, assessment of air pollution tolerance index (APTI) and anticipated performanceindex (API) was calculated to observe the tolerant potential of fifteen plant species along roadsideof Kathmandu valley. APTI was determined by combining the four biochemical and physiologicalparameters; Relative water content (RWC), Total chlorophyll content (TChl), Ascorbic acid content(AA) and Leaf extract pH using a pre-defined formula. Results suggested that, TChl and pH werelower, and RWC and AA were higher at heavily polluted area in comparison to the control site. TheAPTI for the species ranged between 7.57 and 11.51, ideal for sensitive species category (APTI < 16),and the plants are classified as bio indicators of air pollution. Highest mean ATPI (11.51) wasrecorded in Callistemon citrinus and lowest (7.57) was recorded in Buddleja asiatica. The API notonly takes APTI into consideration but also the biological and socio-economic aspect of the species.The API grade indicates. Ficus religiosa and N. arbor-tritis (API = 5) as good performers whileCallistemon citrinus (API=4), Nerium oleander (API=3), Bougainvillea glabra (API=3) and Buddlejaasiatica (API=3) are predicted to be moderate green belt performers. On the basis of APTI and APIassessment, the study suggest that out of fifteen species, only six plants species were identifiedas suitable green belt development. The overall results highlight the suitability of APTI and APIas simple, inexpensive, and convenient methods for recommending plant species for urban areaswith sound environmental pollution with dust load.

The management of water resources is one of the essential factors as in the absence of water; lifeon the earth is not possible. The present study highlights the Heavy Metal contamination ofdifferent rivers of Baddi (H.P). The rising unplanned industrialization and their weak governancesystem adding toxic pollutants, therefore the rivers and riverine of Baddi area are degradinggradually. Heavy metals in riverine environment represent an abiding treat to human health. Theseheavy metals are not easily degradable in nature and accumulate in plants, animals and humanbodies leading to toxic effects. This study includes the six heavy metals namely Iron, Copper,Chromium, Lead, Zinc and Cadmium found in range of 0.19-2.3, 0.01-0.15, 0-0.09, 0.01-0.12, 0.01-0.12and 0-0.001 mg/l, respectively. The investigation of heavy metals can be done by using FlameAtomic Absorption Spectrometry (APHA). The overall mean concentration of heavy metals wasobserved in the following order Fe > Zn > Cu > Cr > Pd > Cd. The enhanced concentration ofcertain metals in the riverine ecosystem may be attributed due to anthropogenic contribution fromindustrial activities of the area. So itâs important to design strategies to control mismanagement ofvaluable water resources.

Lakes are versatile ecosystems thatperform valuable functions such as recycling nutrients,attenuating floods, recharging groundwater and also serve the water needs of the human populace.Nowadaysthe quality of surface water is getting deteriorating at a rapid pace due to excess waterwithdrawal and various anthropogenic activities. In this study, the water quality status ofSasthamkotta lake, a fresh water wetland in the south western part of India which is also a Ramsarsite is determined in terms of Central Pollution Control Board National Sanitation FoundationWater Quality Index. The study was carried out from the month of October 2018 to the month ofSeptember 2019 and parameters namely dissolved oxygen, faecal coliform, pH and biochemicaloxygen demand were analysed to determine the water quality status of the lake and the same wasmapped using Geographical Information System. It was found that major part of the lake comesunder the category good (Central Pollution Control Board National Sanitation Foundation WaterQuality index [CPCB-NSFWQI] ranging from 78 to 80). Localised moderately good water quality(CPCB-NSFWQI ranging from 76 to 78) was observed at sampling stations namely Bharanikkavuand Anjalimooduand very good water quality(CPCB-NSFWQI ranging from 80 to 82) was foundat the sampling stationnamely Kerala Water Authority main pumping station during the postmonsoonand the pre-monsoon season respectively. It was also found that the major portion of thenorth eastern part of lake comes under moderately good water quality during the monsoon season.Densely populated catchment area of the lake, physical setting of the lake characterised by steepslopes on three sides and excess runoff during rainfall could be attributed to the moderately goodwater quality of the lake. Water quality parameters namely faecal coliform exceeded thepermissible limits as per the Bureau of Indian Standards for drinking purpose at all the samplingstations throughout the study period. The designated best use of Sathamkotta lake belongs to thecategory ClassA (non-polluted source) (as per the various classes given by the Central PollutionControl Board based on the CPCB-NSFWQI values obtained during the study period.

Authors: Sáenz De Viteri Anzules Cristian
Published: October 2022

La creencia en el horóscopo y la astrología tiene una tendencia positiva, a pesar de que sus razones detrás de esto no están del todo claras. Se probó si los rasgos de personalidad individuales pueden predecir tales creencias epistémicamente infundadas. Se recopilaron datos de 300 participantes en la ciudad de Guayaquil, Ecuador a través de una encuesta anónima en las redes sociales. La encuesta constaba de cuatro variables: Creencia en Astrología (CEA), los Cinco Grandes rasgos de personalidad (IPIP-30), narcisismo (SD3) e inteligencia (ICAR16-R3D). El análisis de los datos se lo realizó con regresión lineal múltiple. El narcisismo fue sorprendentemente el predictor más fuerte, y la inteligencia mostró una relación negativa con la creencia en la astrología. En general, los resultados novedosos sugieren que algo tan inocente como la astrología podría atraer y posiblemente reforzar las diferencias individuales.

O trabalho está vinculado ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da Universidade Federal do Tocantins (PPGE/UFT), na linha Estado, Sociedade e Práticas Educativas. A pesquisa teve como objetivo investigar o Instituto Federal do Tocantins (IFTO) em seus usos pedagógicos de Ambientes Virtuais de Aprendizagem (AVAs). Para isso, realizou-se uma análise documental e uma pesquisa bibliográfica de publicações ligadas à Educação a Distância (EAD), nos espaços de tempo que envolveram o isolamento social de enfrentamento da Covid-19. A metodologia é fundamentada nos autores Marconi e Lakatos (2003), Gil (2008), Minayo (2008) e De Macedo (1995). As análises seguiram as etapas propostas por Bardin (2011): pré-análise, exploração do material, codificação, unidades de registro, unidades de contexto, enumeração, categorização, tratamento dos resultados obtidos e interpretação por inferência. A revisão bibliográfica abordou os autores: Almeida (2017); Barbosa (2005); Campos e Pessoa (2018); Cazorla, Kataoka e Silva (2010); Corrêa (2005); Levy (1999); Maia (2003); e Veiga (2006). A pesquisa revelou a contribuição dos AVAs para o alcance da missão do IFTO, quando decidiu usar as ferramentas para continuar seus processo de ensino e aprendizagem, por meio da EAD. Concluiu-se que há necessidade de continuar o diálogo com outras Escolas do Estado do Tocantins, de Educação de Jovens e Adultos e de outras modalidades, para compreensão de como as práticas educativas alcançam as possibilidades dos AVAs. Sendo assim, os serviços de interação à distância podem contribuir para uma educação de qualidade quando são usados, também, para fins educacionais. Afinal, no Século XXI, os alunos estão cada vez mais conectados e tal fato precisa ser considerado em projetos políticos e pedagógicos de escolas que almejam cumprir com suas funções  de desenvolvimento de potencialidades físicas, cognitivas e afetivas dos alunos que alcançam.

Authors: Guaragna Gabriel , Higashi Rafael , Viek Thiago
Published: October 2022

O presente estudo buscou avaliar a eficácia do modelo Random-Forest para o auxílio de mapeamentos de movimentos gravitacionais de massa. Neste trabalho o modelo foi definido em linguagem de programação R com o auxílio do pacote SDM. O algoritmo através deste pacote se mostrou de fácil implementação e possibilita a fácil interação com modelagens robustas, como o particionamento dos dados de entrada através de bootstrapping. Com o intuito de reduzir incertezas relacionados a um único modelo, definimos 20 modelos Random-Forest, dos quais foi realizado um ensamble – consenso. Como resultado obtivemos um mapa preditivo probabilístico caracterizado como a média ponderada entre os modelos, onde o AUC alcançado foi de 0,963. Ademais, a geração de curvas de resposta perante os pontos de ruptura nas encostas possibilitou uma análise mais profunda de como as diferentes variáveis utilizadas no modelamento de fato interagem e desenvolvem instabilidades na área de estudo.
Índices de aridez nos núcleos de desertificação da Paraíba
Authors: Almeida Hermes Alves de , Galvani Emerson
Published: October 2022

A desertificação é um processo de degradação de terras, influenciada pelo semiaridez, por ações antrópicas e/ou uma interação entre si. Diante disto, procurou-se estabelecer os índices de aridez nos núcleos de desertificação do Cariri e Seridó da Paraíba, localizados nas regiões geográficas intermediárias de Campina Grande e Patos, sendo essas determinações os objetivos principais. Utilizaram-se dados mensais e anuais de chuva e temperatura do ar das localidades de Cabaceiras e Santa Luzia, de uma série de dados equivalente ao período de 01.01.1970 a 31.12.2020, sendo estimados os índices de aridez, pelos métodos da United Nations Environment Programm (UNEP) e do balanço hídrico climatológico (BHC). Os principias resultados mostraram que os índices de aridez da UNEP e BHC diferem entre si. Os valores dos Ia UNEP, nos meses da estação chuvosa, em Cabaceiras, foram duas vezes maiores que os de Santa Luzia. O índice de seca (ID), estimado pelo método do BHC, foi diretamente proporcional ao déficit hídrico. Além disso, as médias anuais do ID foram sempre menores em Santa Luzia do que Cabaceiras e quanto maior for a razão entre a evapotranspiração potencial e a real, menor será o ID e vice-versa.

Published: October 2022

Objetivou-se com presente trabalho traçar o perfil das Cooperativas de catadores de materiais recicláveis (CCMR) de Jardim Gramacho visando identificar os fatores que limitam a autogestão e o crescimento dessas organizações no mercado de reciclagem. Foram entrevistados gestores de doze das dezessete cooperativas locais e realizada a análise de cluster. Verificou-se que as CCMR, de modo geral, têm localização privilegiada à logística de gestão de resíduos e oferta de mão-de-obra especializada, mas deficiência na infraestrutura básica e na formalização, com alta taxa de analfabetismo e dificuldades na destinação do rejeito. A análise de cluster permitiu a identificação de padrões nas cooperativas de Jardim Gramacho de acordo com o perfil, sob os aspectos culturais, político, econômico e ecológico, podendo ser utilizada como uma ferramenta auxiliar para políticas internas e públicas de auxílio ao desenvolvimento das cooperativas.

Authors: Ferreira Alves Pereira Emídia , Castellanos Samuel Luis Velázquez
Published: October 2022

Objetiva-se analisar as bases curriculares que orientam as mediações no ensino de leitura no 9º ano e suas possíveis implicações no processo de formação leitora dos estudantes. Avaliam-se neste estudo exploratório, via pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, as concepções de leitura e de currículo em uso e suas relações com as proposições curriculares do DCTMA configuradas na elaboração de uma Sequência Didática por uma professora de Língua Portuguesa da Escola Dom Ricardo Pedro Paglia (Presidente Sarney – MA). Conclui-se que as análises apontam ações inconsistentes articuladas à ideia de um currículo tradicional e à concepção de leitura como decodificação e descoberta de sentido, na contramão da perspectiva discursiva da leitura e crítica do currículo preconizada nas bases curriculares do DCTMA.

Detection of 13q deletion in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and its correlation to hematopathological parameters
Authors: Hadi Farah Ammar , Al-Mudallal Subh Salem
Published: October 2022

Background: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia(CLL) is a monoclonal malignancy characterized by an accumulation of small and mature looking B lymphocytes in the blood, bone marrow and other tissues, and is typically characterized by expression CD5+, CD23+, CD22 -, CD79b-, with weak expression of surface immunoglobulin (sIg). Two major clinical staging systems (Rai and Binet staging), that developed to estimate prognosis in CLL. However both these systems are unable to prospectively distinguish the rapidly developing patients from those appreciated to remain with a stable disease for decades. Several publications reported the prognostic important of 13q deletion in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. 13q deletion is the most important cytogenetic abnormalities detected by Fluorescence In situ Hybridization in CLL patients and represent a good prognostic marker with 60% of patients alive after 5 years as compared with 27% for patients with a normal FISH analysis. Aims of the study: To investigate 13q deletion in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia by using FISH technique. To correlate the presence of 13q deletion with hematological and clinical prognostic markers including complete blood picture, absolute lymphocyte count, and modified Rai staging.

Published: October 2022

In this work, a new thioxoimidazolidine derivative had been prepared by the reaction of bromobenzaldehyde with thiosemicarbazide then the resulting product reacted with ethelchloroacetate to produce the ligand, L= (3{(E)[(4-bromophenyl) methyldenamino-2-sulfanylideneimidazo lidin-4-one, in an attempt to synthesis its copper complex. The new ligand and its copper complex was isolated, studied and characterized in solid states by studying the analytical and physicochemical properties. It was found that ligand coordinate to copper ion as a bidentate ligand through nitrogen atom of Azomethine groups and sulfur atoms of the thione group. The outcomes recorded that copper complex could be founds in "[1:2] (M:L) molar ratio".  From study of geometrical shape, the copper ion has a square planer shape with Ligand. Twenty-four adult male rats were divided into three equal groups, with age 2-3 months old. The first group returned to the control group, as it was given the necessary food and water, second, third group was given 0.5% hydrogen peroxide in drinking water. The third group was dosage by orally copper complex of 2-Thioxo Imidazolidin-4-Ones by Cavage Needle. after thirty and sixty days of experimental period, blood sample was drawn from each animal.
