Current Status and Future Directions of the National Examination Standards for Certified Sports Leader (A Comparative Study to the National Examination Standards for Licensed Nutritionists)
Authors: Jung Deogjo
Published: January 2023

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to find a way to develop into the valid and reliable national examination standards that reflects field practical competency through comparative analysis with the national examination standards for licensed nutritionists, and also to find problems and future directions of the national examination standards for certified sports leader.
BODY In the national examination for certified sports leader, it is important to evaluate the basic ability of physical education instructors to perform their duties in the field. In order to select sports instructors with basic job competencies required in the field, it is necessary to increase the validity of the national examination standards for sports instructors. A virtuous cycle structure must be created by appropriately measuring practical competency in the field, updating the examination criteria based on these results, and increasing the relevance and accuracy of the criteria and practical competency in the field. In addition, it is necessary to periodically re-examine and evaluate the practical competencies of the field according to the changes of the times and environment, actively change the examination criteria and reflect them in the national examination.CONCLUSIONS The validity and reliability of the national examination standards for certified sports leader must be improved in order to nurture competent exercise experts equipped with academic, professionalism, and job performance skills required in the field of physical education and sports. As a way to increase validity, problem-solving standards and item development standards should be prepared, and job performance competency evaluation should be conducted in order to nurture competent sports leaders with practical capabilities.

The article proves that law is an effective means of regulation only in the rule of law. The rule of law underpins the work of the United Nations and other international organizations, as well as the political institutions of modern developed nations. It is shown that the concept of “rule of law” is lexically close to one of the basic elements of the positivist doctrine of law in the form of the concept of “rule of law”, which led to the identification of these concepts. It is substantiated that the Ukrainian vision of the rule of law is not limited to legislation as one of its forms, but also includes other social regulators, including morals, traditions, customs, etc., which are legitimized by society and conditioned with historically achieved cultural level. It is confirmed that justice is one of the basic principles of the law, decisive in defining it as a regulator of social relations, one of the universal dimensions of the law. It is proved that justice is considered as a property of the law, expressed, in particular, in the equal legal scale of behavior and in the proportionality of legal responsibility for the offense. In the field of the law enforcement, justice is manifested, in particular, in the equality of all before the law, the conformity of crime and punishment, the goals of the legislator and the means chosen to achieve them. In the article, that right, comes forward as effective means of adjusting only in the conditions of supremacy of thelaw. Principle of supremacy of right is the basis of activity of United Nations and other international organizations, and also political institutes of the modern developed states. It has been shown that a pan-European understanding of the concepts studied takes into account the main aspects of the concept of “rule of law”: all persons, whether public or private, must be bound by law and have the right to enjoy it. It is shown that modern society has developed an effective mechanism for ensuring the rule of law, which includes: the existence of the basic law of the country – the Constitution or its equivalent; clear and consistent system of legislation; institutions of justice, administration and security, which have the means and capabilities to ensure the application of legislation; legal culture. In the absence of equal law for all, the progressive development of society is impossible. Where there are groups above the law, as well as the practice of selective application of the law, incentives for development disappear. It is substantiated that the rule of law should be identified and implemented at the stage of law enforcement and the first step towards this is to increase the role of law as the main and primary regulator of public relations.

The question of the searching for fairness in the different areas of our life is still being important in modern world. Fairness may have different manifestations, which complicates it’s one unambiguous interpretation. Such situation are needed the endless seek of the practical fairness in the every individual administrative cases for the harmonious development of the entire judicial system, which determines the relevance of the study. The aim of the article to create the knowledge about the role of the standards of proof in it’s ability to get closer to the fairness during the evaluation of the evidence as the last stage of administrative procedural proving . During the research general scientific methods were used, including analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, abstraction, concretization, analogy, systemstructural method. A number of special methods were also used: the hermeneutic method for understanding and interpreting legal norms ; terminological and systematic methods to characterize the principle of justice; the axiological method helped to analyze justice as a universal value; the functional method helped to identify the function and role of the standards of proof in the way of establishing fairness in the evaluation of evidence in the administrative process. The logic of the presentation of the studied material. The ability of the fairness to correlate with the the principle of pluralism of truth were established. The fact that historical origins of universal values are not important for their consolidation at the level of fundamental principles of law were proved. The importance to adherence of the principle of justice not only in lawmaking but also in law enforcement were researched. The place of the standards of proof to be an important component of procedural (procedural) justice were detected Conclusions. Standards of proof contribute to the achievement of the justice’s ideals as they serve as a guide for the judge in the distribution and execution of the burden of proof. The higher the value of a certain value for society, the higher the standard of proof used and vice versa.
Парламентаризм в умовах політичного транзиту: досвід Чеської Республіки
Authors:   Prešov University in Prešov, Марадик Наталія
Published: January 2023

For the first time in the Ukrainian political science, considers the development of parliamentarism in the Czech Republic in a context of political transit in a comprehensive manner. It indicates the ambiguity and complexity of the process of parliamentary democracy’s functioning in the country. The main stages of the Czech parliamentary institutions’ establishment have been identified. The key tendencies and the peculiarities of the current Czech parliamentarism modernisation have been defined. The constitutional and legal status of the Parliament of the Czech Republic has been outlined and its place in the existing checks and balances system determined; the Czech Parliament party structuring characteristics have been determined and the most important factors of the coalition formation potential of parliamentary fractions have been revealed; based on the empirical indicators, the party system’s stability and efficiency in the Czech Republic have been investigated. The fundamental principles of the liberal parliamentarism concept (Ch.L.Montesquieu, John Locke, John Mill) have served as the theoretical and methodological basis for these article, which considers the power division to be the main principle of the state system, in which the executive power is accountable and subject to the legislative power. In order to achieve the tasks, the author used general scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction) as well as special politilogical methods. The methods of induction and deduction have been used in formulating the concept of “political transit” and its constituent elements. The comparativehistorical method gave the defender of the thesis the opportunity to understand the main directions of parliamentary institutions’ development at different historical stages of the Czech statehood and identify the factors that influenced the change in their status. The system method allowed to assess the constitutional and legal status of the Parliament of the Czech Republic, primarily its place and role in the political system of society and the relationship with other bodies of state power. On the whole, we can assume that the experience of the parliamentarism functioning in the Czech Republic is of great practical significance for Ukraine and other post-communist states, since it gives a stimulus to the society and ruling elites of these countries to further improve and develop their political institutions.
Importance of the lignin content in the pod wall and seed coat on soybean seed physiological and health performances
Authors: Krzyzanowski Francisco Carlos , França-Neto José de Barros , Henning Fernando Augusto
Published: January 2023

Abstract: The effects of lignin on soybean seed quality have been studied since the early 1990s. Initially, higher lignin content in the seed coat was associated with greater resistance to mechanical damage by the seeds. Later, positive relationships of lignin content in the seed coat were associated with tolerance to stresses caused by weathering in pre-harvest, resulting in improved seed quality. Additional studies have shown that higher lignin content in the pod wall of soybean is also related to production of seeds with high physiological and sanitary qualities. Colored soybean seeds (black or brown) are known to have higher seed quality due to higher lignin content in the seed coat; in addition, the presence of anthocyanin in the seed coat of colored seeds also contributes to improve seed quality. Finally, the effects of boron on lignin synthesis are also highlighted in this review article. As demonstrated in this review article, lignin content in the seed coat and pod wall of soybean plays an important role in relation to physical, health, and physiological seed qualities. These parameters should be considered in studies related to evaluation of the quality of soybean seeds as affected by genetic factors. These parameters should also be strongly considered for inclusion in breeding programs to improve soybean seed and grain quality.
Targeting the V-Type Immunoglobulin Domain-Containing Suppressor to T Cell Activation (VISTA) with Agonist Monoclonal Antibodies in Autoimmunity
Authors: Jung Megan , Bonavida Benjamin
Published: January 2023

The recognition of self-antigens by the T-cell immune system can results in autoimmunity. Current treatments of autoimmunity include non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs and treatments aimed to control the immune system directly. Additionally, inhibiting signaling pathways that encourage T cell activation are promising strategies to help increase self-tolerance and control the inflammatory immune response. Despite the many treatments available, there are still great risks that accompanies each therapy; therefore, the shift towards immune checkpoint therapy is promising as it specifically targets the activated autoimmune T cells. In contrast to cancer, immune check point inhibitors (ICIs) for autoimmune treatment are attractive targets for the amplification of inhibitory functions of autoimmune T cells. A particular protein of interest for autoimmune therapy is the immune checkpoint protein V-type immunoglobin domain-containing suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) or programmed dealth-1 homolog (PD-1H) of the B7 family. VISTA acts as both a ligand [on antigen presenting cells (APCs) and other cells] and as a receptor (on T cells). It functions as an immuno-suppressor by decreasing T cell proliferation, balancing the T cell/T regulatory cells (Tregs) ratio, and inhibiting cytokine production and inflammation. For the treatment of autoimmunity, an agonist anti-VISTA mAb is needed to interact and activate the inhibitory intracellular signaling pathways that result in the inactivation of the autoimmune T cells. New developments such as VISTA.cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (VISTA.COMP) and anti-human VISTA (anti-hVISTA) mAbs 7E12 and 7GF are potential drug candidates to help downregulate autoimmune responses and reduce the inflammatory states of patients with autoimmunity.

The allelopathic effect of the freshwater alga Chlorella vulgaris on growth of the pathogenic microorganisms Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae and Leptospira interrogans - pathogens of human and animals was studied. The excretion by Chlorella vulgaris inhibited growth of the experimental samples of pathogenic microorganisms in all range of dilutions (1:100, 1:100, 1:1000). The freshwater alga Ch. vulgaris is promising for remediation of wetlands from pathogenic microorganisms, particularly E. rhusiopathiae and L. interrogans.
Water Level and Temperature as the Main Factors Responsible for the Formation of Conditions for Aboriginal Fish Fauna Effective Reproduction in the Kremenchuk Reservoir
Authors: Rudyk-Leuska N. Ya. , Potrokhov O. S. , Kotovska G. O. , Khrystenko D. S.
Published: January 2023

Modern dynamics of the main abiotic environmental factors responsible for fish fauna effective reproduction in the Kremenchuk Reservoir are discussed in the paper. Annual dynamics of water level and temperature were analyzed. It has been found that the main factor responsible for the rate of breeding stock maturation in the Kremenchuk Reservoir is water temperature dynamics rather than spawning temperatures. It is underlined that the operation of hydroelectric facilities and the spawning campaign must be synchronized to ensure sustainable fisheries. The drainage of spawning grounds in low-water years results in the decrease in their area and, as a consequence, in the formation of low-yielding generations. It is recommended to optimize the annual dynamics of water level according to the needs of fisheries.
Operation optimisation of integrated energy system
Authors: Jian Sun , Yun Qin
Published: January 2023

To effectively improve the absorption capacity of the integrated energy system (IES) to clean energy, reduce the carbon dioxide emissions of the system, and improve the economic benefits of the system, this paper constructs a comprehensive energy system model that includes both electricity to hydrogen and hydrogen to gas and introduces the carbon dioxide trading mechanism, the green certificate trading mechanism and the response mechanism to the load demand. Different scenarios are set for example analysis and the model is solved using Matlab software's CPLEX solver. The results show that the operation strategy of the IES considering demand response under the carbon dioxide–green certificate joint trading mechanism performs best, reducing the total cost of the system by 65.8% and the carbon dioxide emissions by 23.1%, which can provide a strong reference and guidance for the low carbon dioxide economy operation of the IES.

O estudo tem como objetivo explorar as diferenças do disclosure de Subvenção e Assistência Governamentais (SAG) nas empresas brasileiras de capital aberto. A amostra é composta por 353 empresas de capital aberto listadas na Brasil, Bolsa e Balcão (B3) entre 2017 e 2019. Os dados foram obtidos por meio da análise do conteúdo das notas explicativas referentes às Demonstrações Financeiras Padronizadas (DFP) disponíveis no site da B3 S/A, verificando as informações relativas às SAG, conforme enunciado nos Comitês de Pronunciamentos Contábeis (CPC), CPC 07 (2008) e CPC 07 R1 (2010). Para a realização dos objetivos do estudo, procedeu-se ao teste de comparação de médias t independente e análise de variância. Os resultados evidenciaram que as SAG têm, em sua maioria, origem Estadual (39,8%) e Federal (38,6%) e a SAG mais representativa é concedida para as empresas através de incentivos fiscais (54,1%). Os resultados dos testes estatísticos mostram que o nível de disclosure de SAG não difere a partir da governança corporativa e do período. Por outro lado, os resultados mostram que as empresas não reguladas apresentam maiores níveis de disclosure de SAG e que os setores de petróleo, gás e biocombustíveis e de saúde apresentaram, respectivamente, o maior e o menor nível de disclosure de SAG. O estudo busca contribuir para a literatura por evidenciar a existência de diferenças, ou não, do nível de disclosure de SAG a partir de características das empresas, como o nível de governança corporativa, a regulação, o período amostral e o setor de atuação.
Conflicting Communities The Global Imaginary in the South Asian Anglophone Novel
Authors: Sircar Sushmita
Published: January 2023

The novel, the nation and the family, arising in the age of colonization, are structures deeply imbricated in each other, providing the imaginaries that sustain each other. The contemporary emergence of  world literature therefore requires a model different from the family. This essay argues that the contemporary South Asian novel centers new modes of affiliation and kinship that are enabled by global institutions—the multinational finance company and the university—in order to provide an alternative to the site of the family, the imagined basis for the nation’s community. By looking at three novelswritten by authors of Pakistani, Indian and Bangladeshi origins respectively—The Reluctant Fundamentalist (2007), The Lives of Others (2014), and In the Light of What We Know (2014)—I indicate that rather than a unified ‘global imaginary’ that replaces a previous national one, these characters find themselves imbricated in conflicting contracts of affiliation. It is these contradictory communities that the contemporary South Asian Anglophone novel provides as a model of imagining the world through various acts of affiliation.  
Timing-driven derivation of a NOM/ACC agreement pattern
Authors: Pietraszko Asia
Published: January 2023

This paper reports a case of NOM/ACC alignment in agreement that results from the relative timing of A- movement and φ-agreement, and not from the position of φ-probes or the sensitivity of agreement to case. The NOM/ACC phenomenon discussed here is object agreement in Ndebele, which can be characterized as the systematic inability of Voice to agree with the highest argument, despite c-commanding it. I argue that this pattern follows from a general property of Bantu languages whereby every φ-probe obligatorily co-occurs with an EPP feature. In Voice, EPP probes before φ, removing the highest argument from the probing domain of φ, which gives rise to the unique status of the highest DP in terms of agreement. I explain why the bleeding of agreement by movement cannot be undone by cyclic expansion of the φ-probe and instead leads to a rigid downward agreement pattern. Finally, I conclude that the pervasive cooccurrence of agreement and movement in Bantu languages is the result of parametric cooccurrence of EPP and φ (Baker, 2003; Collins, 2004), and is not an indication that the two operations are triggered by the same feature, nor that Agree is upward in Bantu.

The rapidly changing landscape of information security threats, directly related to the development of information technologies, requires continuous automated monitoring of information security events for the purpose of quick response, retrospective analysis for targeted attacks, as well as compliance with the requirements of the regulators of the sphere. This article presents the process of creating a concept that is being implemented everywhere – an information security monitoring center. This complex, multifactorial process takes into account the elaboration of regulatory legal acts and regulatory and methodological documentation, the analysis of current international practices, the formation of a pool of technologies used, the formation of a service team and the debugging of workflows. At the same time, the possibility of the SOC's interaction with regulatory authorities, the specific of communication with customers, its own resistance to attacks, economic feasibility, the peculiarities of human psychology, etc. should be taken into account. To visualize the work of the SOC, a process diagram of the SOC's work is presented. In the article attention is paid to the choice of the core of the SOC – SIEM system. The result clearly represents the current cross-section of the Russian market of systems of this class, which is important in the context of import substitution.

Published: January 2023

The monograph analyzes the influence of information processes on social morphogenesis leading to the formation of a hybrid society. The social and anthropological prerequisites and consequences of the transition to a "digital" society are analyzed. The concept of "ontologization of the figure" is substantiated and developed. Deep digitalization is interpreted as a catalyst for the morphogenesis of a hybrid society. The reasons for the emergence of a new type of social agent – a technosubject are revealed. The classification of types of technosubjects is presented. The author's interpretation of the path of the emergence of the phenomenon of hybrid sociotechnosystems and the emergence of a hierarchical social structure in interacting sets of intelligent machines with artificial intelligence is presented. For specialists in the field of sociology, philosophy, STS and experts in forecasting the social consequences of the development of technologies with artificial intelligence, for everyone who is interested in the processes of transformation of society under the influence of digital technologies.
Prospects for environmentally safe disinfection of urban sewerage with the help of compositions of non-toxic bactericidal metal complex reagents and surfactants
Authors: Tsivadze AYu , Fridman AYa , Barinov RA , Kruglina KA , Magomedrasul G
Published: January 2023

The prospects of environmentally safe disinfection of urban sewerage using compositions of bactericidal complexes of copper with amino acids and iminodiacetate derivatives of mucopolysaccharides and triglycerides of fatty acids are shown. When they are dosed into wastewater, the complexes penetrate into the structure of Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) and mucus and within a few minutes bind the structural fragments of pathogens and larvae, which leads to their death with the outflow of cell fluid, the disappearance of fecal odor, cessation of putrification and coagulation of SPM. The complete disinfection is achieved at doses of complexes of 0.8 - 1.5 mmol per 1 kg of dry matter. The composition is dosed into sewage wells. Organo-mineral masses settle from disinfected wastewater. The use of compositions will reduce the negative impact of sewerage on the sanitary-epidemiological and ecological situation in settlements, increase the efficiency of existing treatment facilities and produce organo-mineral masses as commercial products.
Characteristics of environmental degradation in mining areas (A case study of the Southern Trans-Urals)
Authors: Aufar Gareev , Emil Gareev
Published: January 2023

The areas affected by mining operations are characterized by extremely complex environmental changes that affect all components of the natural complexes. In several cases, radical negative changes (transformations) take place, which cause the formation of the habitat, characterized by changes in characteristics of all components of the natural environment, including geological structure, soil cover, surface and groundwater and atmospheric air, respectively, flora and fauna. This generally leads to a sharp deterioration of ecological conditions, including living conditions of living organisms and human habitation, causing stressful situations, inconveniences, as well as characteristic diseases due to the influence of factors of excessive pollution of components of the natural environment. As one of the objects of the study, the impact zone of mining enterprises within the town of Sibai and its surroundings in the Republic of Bashkortostan was chosen. It is typical for the assessment of occurring changes and other industrial centers and districts located within the vast strip of the Southern Urals. It has been revealed that the greatest damage is inflicted on ecosystems of small rivers, which is caused by both direct and indirect entry of pollutants into them as a result of dissolution, leaching and entry from rock dumps, emissions into the atmosphere, and settling on the surface of soil and snow cover; direct discharge of wastewater into them, etc. It is shown that with the lingering impact of the regional response to global climate change, environmental problems are exacerbated. This calls for urgent measures to restore favorable environmental conditions and address a wide range of economic and social problems.
Parental mediation of adolescents’ technology use: Unequal parenting practices
Authors: Kutrovátz Kitti
Published: January 2023

This study explores parental mediation – its patterns, purpose and intention, the intentions behind it, and related social inequalities – from the perspective of the ideal of intensive parenting. Parental mediation in the form of restricting or monitoring teenagers’ technology use might mitigate the harm of the intensive or risky online behaviour. Moreover, active mediation strategies might improve the teenagers’ digital literacy by obtaining specific skills that foster appropriate online behaviour. Therefore, the paper argues that parental mediation has become a highly relevant aspect of contemporary parenting practices. The paper is based on thematic analyses of semi-structured interviews on children’s screen time and parental mediation strategies. The interviews were carried out with 29 parents of adolescents in Hungary in 2019. The findings show that restriction and active mediation primarily aimed at protecting children from risks, as a resource-intensive practice, form part of the contemporary parenting skill set. This study contributes to understanding how these skills constitute a digital cultural capital, and thereby how parenting can enhance the digital inequality.
Creating the post-socialist middle-class mother: Global hierarchies and local distinctions
Authors: Cheresheva Irina Teodorova
Published: January 2023

This paper discusses the ways class distinctions are upheld through the performance of culturally valued childcare practices in a post-socialist capital: Sofia. It is based on 19 in-depth interviews, concerned with the mundane everyday lives of first-time middle-class mothers on maternity leave. I use feminist critical discourse analysis to trace the ways classed power shapes the meaning my interviewees attach to their experiences of motherhood. Feminist academic literature on motherhood, generally originating in the global west, has long demonstrated how the labour-intensive, financially demanding and time-consuming practices of middle-class mothers historically inform the very idea of ‘good’ motherhood. Seeing the child as a project in need of managing, via an amalgam of diligent provision of organic home-cooked food options, skilful manoeuvring around pre-school selection and an endless supply of extracurricular activities, has been exposed as middle-class privilege and thoroughly critiqued. These practices are implicitly opposed to the more intuitive parenting styles of the working classes. However, automatically linking specific childcare rituals with a certain class standing is also a symptom of the global inequalities in knowledge production, which tend to naturalise western realities as universal truths. My research shows that class distinction, rather than being produced by the exact practices parents engage in, is the outcome of processes of symbolic and material exclusion through which one imagines oneself as superior. The mothering styles of the socially privileged correlate with the norms enforced by childcare experts and state institutions around the world, but these styles are essentially ‘glocal’ designs. ‘Good’ middle-class mothers in post-socialist Europe anxiously manage their classed performance of motherhood with an awareness of their inferior position in the global class ladder. As such, Bulgarian ‘glocally-appropriate’ parenting merges two symbolic strategies in order to secure a relative and fragile economic privilege: mothers’ preferred childcare styles deploy an array of technologies of exclusion of the socially marginalised poor as well as those perceived as nouveau riche; and they represent an attempt at imagining oneself and her children as ‘civilised’ and valuable Europeans, with a focus on rejecting the country’s socialist past.
Making distance from our displacement: A cross-section of the academic life of displaced scholars from Turkey working on displacement in Germany
Authors: Akdemir Refiye Nevra
Published: January 2023

The article interrogates the different ways in which exiled researchers, who have migrated from the field of uncertainty created by the authoritarian regime to the field of precariousness created by extensive marketization, address the issue of displacement in these two different fields of uncertainty. The first part of the article will elucidate how displacement turns into a transformative experience of loss, which is the starting point and direction of movement. In the second part, the tensions in the processes of exiled researchers seeking scholarship and writing in order to continue their careers through problematising the displacement that they themselves now experience. Following section aims thematising by an insider's look at their efforts to overcome marginalising or exclusionary attitudes that emerge through internalized patterns about the experience of being exiled and displacement, and to resettle. In short, how exiled academics' own experiences are reflected in their academic production and professions on the axes of gender and precarity can be summarized as the problematic on which the article proceeds. I can list the methodological resource of findings to be reached in this study as follows. I will draw on findings from my completed although yet unpublished research on the loss of status of the first highly educated refugees. Secondly, for this study, I will conduct a small ethnographic field study and incorporate the narratives of colleagues with similar experiences into the analysis. Thirdly, I will try to proceed with an auto-ethnographic method, with my own experiences. In this respect, data filtered from ethnographic field research, as well as an autoethnographic method, will enrich the article. Thus, in the article, as an academic in exile, I will consider a series of proposals regarding academic work facilities/spaces before and after being displaced. Moreover, my position as an author/researcher and my relationship to the profession, when and where I experienced the loss, and the relearned life/language will constitute the initial themes and methodological discussion of the article. In this context, the loss created by the experience of temporariness and insecurity becomes an essential area of discussion. In the article, the claim that the experience of loss is not post-migration, but pre-migration will be grounded first. Secondly, the lost conceptualization will be put into place. Finally, the possibilities of transition from insecurity due to the authoritarianism of the state I will discuss to the insecurity experienced due to market dominance in the academic system that needs to be adjusted after migration.
Shamed citizens: Exilic lived experiences of queer Mongolians
Authors: Tsedendemberel Otgonbaatar
Published: January 2023

Mongolia has seemingly progressive national laws on sexuality, but its enforcement is poor. Criminalizing hate crime and speech against the country’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer, and other sexual and gender minorities (LGBTIQ+) in the 2017 Criminal Code appears to make Mongolia ‘a humane, civil, and democratic society,’ as envisioned by its constitution. However, an increasing number of Mongolian queers fleeing the homeland seeking acceptance and freedom shows the magnitude of discrimination, hatred and violence based on sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and sex characteristics (SOGIESC). This paper explores the lived experiences of repressed Mongolian queers and their exilic experiences. Semi-structured, in-depth interviews based on snowball sampling with 16 queers and allies reveal that shame, as a crucial identity construct of Mongolian queers, serves as a trigger for their forced and self-imposed exile. I argue that embraced and resolved shame of queer Mongolians in ‘exile,’ afforded to them by being exposed to somewhat better environment abroad, ease their exilic experiences, and transform shame into self-acceptance and self-esteem. This paper is original with its nuanced academic debates on the lived experiences of queer Mongolian diasporas in terms of shame, sexuality, and exile.
All different but all misogynists
Authors: Béres-Deák Rita
Published: January 2023

In recent years, with the strengthening of the populist right and its increased focus on gender and sexuality, there has been growing interest in studying this issue among researchers of social sciences, leading to the publication of several edited volumes (e.g., Kuhar & Paternotte, eds., 2017; Krizsán & Roggeband, eds., 2019, or Kováts & Põim, eds., 2015). Yet another volume on this topic, therefore, needs to promise something extra beyond the general description of right-wing anti-gender strategies most of us in the field are already familiar with. This collection of essays promises such an extra addition (a focus on paradoxes), and while it does not consistently keep this perspective, it does offer some exciting new additions to the literature of right-wing populism and gender. It grew out of a research project that would have compared right-wing discursive strategies regarding gender and sexuality in Europe, and which, though never completed, provided enough inspiration to a number of renowned researchers to explore these issues in their local context. This original background also accounts for the fact that most articles focus on analyzing discourses (of parties, organizations like the World Congress of Families, or even of researchers), and (with one exception) less attention is paid to the experiences of ordinary people.

Authors: Nagy Anna
Published: January 2023

West Nile virus is one of the most important endemic arbovirus in Hungary. For next-generation whole genome sequencing of West Nile virus lineage 2, a one-step reverse transcription PCR assay was developed. PCR amplicons can be used for further amplicon based sequencing protocols on Illumina MiSeq platform. The genome of the West Nile virus is a single-stranded, positive-sense, capped RNA of approximately 10–11 kb in length. The whole genome amplification was carried out by twelve overlapping PCR amplicons. For ampification of the whole genome primer sets were designed by Geneious Prime (version 2021.2.2) primer design tool.
RNA-Stable Isotope Probing v2
Authors: Angel Roey
Published: January 2023

The following protocol describes how to perform an RNA-Stable Isotope Probing experiment. The scope of this protocol only covers the parts involving separating labelled RNA from unlabelled RNA using ultracentrifugation in a caesium trifluoroacetate density gradient and downstream quantification to evaluate whether the labelling and separation of the RNA were successful. Total RNA should be extracted from an environmental sample or an enrichment culture that was incubated with an isotopically-labelled substrate. Labelling can be of the carbon, oxygen or nitrogen in the RNA (or any combination of the 3). For environmental samples, we recommend extracting RNA using our protocol Total Nucleic Acids Extraction from Soil and purifying it using the Purification of RNA from Crude NA Extract protocol. This protocol is based on the following papers: Whiteley et al. (2007); Dumont et al. (2011); Angel and Conrad (2013). For a comprehensive discussion on how to design a SIP experiment and how to analyse the resulting data, we recommend referring to the recent book on the subject: Stable Isotope Probing: Methods and Protocols, especially chapters: 1-3 and 9-18.

Objective. Analyzed in compared perspective perceptions about nursing care, nurse-patient interaction, and nursing care outcomes in two ICU nursing staff in a high-complexity hospital institution, whose Nursing are Delivery Models (NCDM) are differentiated by the proportion of nurses and nurse assistants (NA) per team and by the assigned tasks and responsibilities.

Methods. Particularist ethnography with adaptation to virtual methodologies. It included the sociodemographic characteristics of 19 nurses and 23 NA, 14 semi-structured interviews, review of patients’ clinical records, and a focus group. Coding, categorization, inductive analysis, validation of results with participants were conducted and thematic saturation was achieved.

Results. Four themes were identified: i) Professionalized care: a nursing of superior value; ii) senses and feelings of care; iii) nursing workload, generating factors and impacts; and iv) nursing missed care as concrete expression of the nursing workload.

Conclusion. Compared nursing teams perceived nursing care in different ways, since it was experienced based on the assigned responsibilities and the possibilities of interaction with patients. Nursing care in the NCDM of the ICU with prevalence of direct bedside care by nurses with support from NA, it was perceived as holistic, comprehensive, and empathetic; whereas in the ICU with prevalence of delegated care to NA, it was related with administrative leadership and management of the ICU. Regarding the results, the NCDM of the ICU of direct bedside care by nurses showed better performance in patient safety and was closer to the skill level and legal responsibility of the nursing staff.

This work evaluated the antioxidant activity of ethanol extracts from 11 species of the genus Bomarea (Alstroemeriaceae) by means of two in vitro methods. Values of CE50 between 51 and 333 μg/mL were obtained for DPPH the test, and the highest activity levels were found for B. glaucescens, B. setacea, B. pardina and B. euryantha, which presented a similar CE50 or lower than the reference used, silymarin (70.6 μg/mL). Likewise, the TBARS method showed that the maximum inhibition of lipid peroxidation of the linoleic acid was produced by B. hirsuta (malondialdehyde = 0.429 μM), followed by B. bredemeyerana (0.474 μM), B. callejasiana (0.479 μM), B. euryantha (0.489 μM), B. glaberrima (0.497 μM), and B. setacea (0.500 μM). Additionally, the concentration of phenol compounds was evaluated by the Folin-Ciocalteau method, finding that B. setacea presented the highest content of these (159.75 gallic acid equivalents/mg of extract). Bomarea setacea showed the highest antioxidant properties demonstrated by its free-radical scavenging and significant inhibition capacity of the oxidation of linoleic acid.

Electronic nose systems, more commonly known in the food industry as electronic noses, are considered nowadays as an analytical technique with wide applicability. This is a non-destructive technique designed to analyze, recognize and identify very low levels of chemical volatile substances. An array of electrochemical sensors creates a unique digital fingerprint of the food, enabling quality control, product development, characterization, classification and origin identification, maturity stage, assessment of shelf-life and as a tool of control to identify problems that threaten the market, such as counterfeiting and adulteration. This paper reviewed the literature of the last 10 years on the basic principle of operation of an electronic nose: the components used in its operation such the sensor system and the processing information system obtained by using multivariate statistical techniques and artificial intelligence. Electronic nose data so obtained were objective, reproducible, reliable and acquired in real time. Sensors identify volatile compounds by functional groups and through statistical analysis techniques guarantee their usefulness in different industrial applications.

Polyphenol oxidase activity is responsible for the enzymatic browning of fruits and vegetables, and the end products of the catalyzed reaction are detrimental to food quality, in both sensory and nutritional properties. In this study we evaluated the influence of the extraction conditions (pH, concentration, composition of extraction buffer and protein precipitation agent) on the activity of golden berry polyphenol oxidase. The extraction of proteins with a mixture of Triton® X-100 and polyvinyl pyrrolidone in 0.2 M phosphate buffer at pH 6.0 and precipitation with cold acetone in a ratio supernatant-acetone of 1:1 gave the higher polyphenol oxidase activity. Partial purification of polyphenol oxidase was achieved using an aqueous two-phase system composed by polyethylene glycol and phosphate. Effect of phase composition, molecular weight of polythylene glycol and pH of the system on enzyme partitioning was studied. The optimum system was found at pH 5.5 containing 5% polythylene glycol 8000 and 14% phosphate, with Ka of 4.70, purification factor of 4.65 and a 74.29% yield of enzyme activity in the top phase. These results show a significant effect of extraction conditions on polyphenol oxidase activity and provide a quick, simple and efficient method for polyphenol oxidase isolation.
