Obstructive sleep apnea and chronic pain as risk factors of cognitive impairment in elderly population: A study from Indonesia
Authors: Tiara Tiara , Fidiana Fidiana
Published: December 2021

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), one of the most prevalent sleep-related breathing disorders in the elderly, seems to be underdiagnosed. Meanwhile, the resulting complication on cognitive function could impact on patient’s quality of life. Association between OSA and cognitive function in the elderly varies highly, depending on study type, setting, and possibly by demographic differences. Therefore, this study sought to determine the risk of OSA among elderly and to assess the association of OSA risk and other plausible factors with cognitive function. In this cross-sectional study, patients aged 60 years and above who visited the outpatient clinic at two main hospitals in Surabaya of Indonesia were examined. A total of 178 participants were interviewed to evaluate the OSA risk using STOP-Bang questionnaire, the cognitive dysfunction using Montreal Cognitive Assessment Indonesian version (MoCA-Ina), depressive symptoms using Geriatric Depression Scale-15 (GDS-15), and sleep disorder using Insomnia Screening Questionnaire (ISQ). The Mann-Whitney and Chi-square tests were used to assess factors associated with cognitive impairment. In addition, logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the role of high risk of OSA on cognitive impairment. A total of 120 patients were considered having high risk of OSA (STOP-Bang score ≥3), and 129 had mild cognitive impairment (MCI) (MoCA-Ina <26). Among the elderly who had high risk of OSA, 94 were diagnosed with MCI (78.3%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high risk of OSA (OR: 2.99; 95%CI: 1.39, 6.46, p=0.005), chronic pain (OR: 5.53; 95%CI: 1.19, 25.64, p=0.029), and low education level (OR: 4.57; 95%CI: 1.79, 11.63) were associated with MCI. In conclusion, our data suggests a high prevalence of MCI among high risk OSA elderly. Screening and comprehensive management might be beneficial to improve or to preserve cognitive function in elderly group.

Жанр парафраза в балете
Authors: Саргсян Назеник
Published: December 2021

Партитура балета «Маскарад» создана Эдгаром Оганесяном на основе музыки Арама Хачатуряна к драматическим спектаклям «Маскарад» М.Ю. Лермонтова, «Лермонтов» Б. Лавренева и темы сонаты-монолога для виолончели solo. «Маскарад» ‒ это балет-парафраз, базирующийся на театральной музыке, прикрепленной преимущественно к драме «Маскарад». При сопоставлении драмы Лермонтова и партитуры балета выявляется идентичность построения развития действия по принципу «кумулятивной сказки»; основной художественный прием – это многократный повтор одних и тех же действий или элементов, пока созданная таким способом цепь не прервется. Даже при поверхностном прочтении драмы «Маскарад» можно выявить лейтмотив – это предмет и слово, обозначающее этот предмет – «браслет». Вся пьеса содержит 56 выходов, из которых в 26-и выходах действие стимулируется «браслетом» и вращается вокруг него. В балете же мотив «браслета» заменяет «Вальс», из которого вытекает все построение музыкальной композиции и музыкальной драматургии балета. Остальные музыкальные фрагменты определяются по отношению к «Вальсу». Он же является носителем нескольких смысловых функций.
Արցախյան հոռովելներ

The paper examines the peasant songs – horovels of Artsakh; it aims to cover the peculiarities of the musical linguistic language of the region. Work songs are one of the oldest layers of Armenian folk music. Our study is based on the notes made by Komitas Vardapet, Robert Atayan and Matevos Muradyan, in which horovels of the historical Varanda (present-day Martuni) region predominate. Back in the dawn of Christianity, Artsakh was one of the most important spiritual centers of the Armenian world with its folklore, unique dialect and song-making tradition. Presumably, this was the reason why Komitas Vardapet took a keen interest in music folklore of Artsakh (10 out of 20 peasant songs, recorded by him, are Artsakh horovels). As a result of comparative analysis of the musical material, we have identified several typological principles of structure and evolution of the musical language of horovels of the region under review (presence of metro-rhythmic, intonational and melodic patterns, prevalence of Phrygian scale with a tertiary secondary support). This, in turn, attests to the existence of traditional modular thinking in the peasant songs of Artsakh. “Horovel”, recorded by R. Atayan during his first expedition to Karabakh in 1957, when historical Artsakh was part of the Azerbaijani SSR, is published in the article for the first time.

The Interpretation Of Chinese Empress Dowager Cixi's Image In The Portraits Of American Artists
Authors: Margaryan Ani
Published: December 2021

The Chinese themes in Early American art have long been obscured under the veil of Japonisme, Aesthetic movement, boundary-pushing modernism and more significantly because of the political circumstances - decline of China as an empire and complicated Chinese-American interconnections. One of the favoured theme of American academism at the period of the late 19th- early 20th centuries were genre scenes, street scenes, portrait d’intérieur1 , portraits, still life works related to China and Chinatowns. Nonetheless, the American press through the imagery created by illustrators and caricaturists was largely involved in interpretations of Western encounters with Chinese culture from the highlighted negative light, either being deeply affected by anti-Chinese flows or fuelling those xenophobic moods. Consequently, a few American artists featured Chinese people and Chinese settings from the perspective of admiration of their “otherness”. Only two American artists- Katherine A. Carl and Hubert Vos, succeeded to pave their career path to the Chinese court, enriching American arts of the early 1900s with the unprecedented depictions of high rank Chinese and the scandalously renowned empress Dowager Cixi (1835-1908) in the positive light of fascination. A number of publications have viewed and examined those portraits from the angle of "political self-fashioning”, but our research is another academic attempt to place those oil paintings in the context of China-related subject matter and its extension in the rising American art of the previous century, stressing their artistic value, function and their relations to the intended audiences.

On the issue of digital ecosystem of continuous professional educational training formation
Authors: Рожкова А.Ю. , Андреянова И.В.
Published: December 2021

Исследование, проведенное на основе теоретико-методологического подхода с позиции потенциального потребителя, связано с постановкой вопроса о предпосылках и перспективах формирования цифровой экосистемы непрерывных образовательных тренингов. Данная экосистема, позволяющая совместить интересы рынка труда и профессионального образования, предполагает создание сети образовательно-профессиональных площадок (онлайн-хабов) с использованием традиционных и платформенных цифровых носителей, объединенных
в «гибридную» инфраструктуру, а также с учетом новых экономических реалий. Непрерывные профессионально-образовательные тренинги затрагивают интересы в первую очередь лиц трудоспособного возраста и нацелены на сохранение трудовой занятости и снижение рисков безработицы на региональном уровне. Существующий разрыв между низкой производительностью труда и опережающей индексацией бюджетных доходов, невысокими доходами молодых работников и неконкурентоспособными программами дополнительного профессионального образования может быть компенсирован с помощью цифровой экосистемы непрерывных профессионально-образовательных тренингов, направленных на формирование опережающих компетенций. Они смогут привлечь на рынок труда молодых трудоспособных лиц как основных производителей валового регионального продукта. Положения и выводы статьи основаны на зарубежном
передовом опыте и отечественных образовательных стратегиях по созданию модели новой образовательной экосистемы.

This research is made with a theoretical-methodological approach from the perspective of the consumer. It is related to the question of the prerequisites and prospects for the digital ecosystem of continuous educational training formation. The new educational ecosystem brings together the interests of the labour market and professional education using a network of educational and professional platforms (online hubs), which is built upon a “hybrid” infrastructure of traditional and platform digital media, taking into account the new economic realities. The continuous vocational trainings focus on persons of working age, young people, and are aimed at maintaining employment and reducing the risks of unemployment at the regional level. The establishment of a digital ecosystem of continuous vocational training to form outpacing competences can compensate for the gap between low labour productivity and
outpacing budget income indexation, low staff rotation, low incomes of young workers and lack of competitive additional vocational training programmes. This could introduce young employable persons to the labour market as the main producers of common (regional) income. The ideas and conclusions are based on international advanced practices and national educational strategies of designing a model of a new educational ecosystem.

Изучение возможностей мозга для повышения качества обучения находится в центре внимания педагогической науки уже много лет. Развитие цифровизации позволило использовать в исследованиях специальное оборудование, с помощью которого можно оценивать и контролировать работу мозга, развивать умственные способности, познавательные функции и т. п. Нейротехнологии стали эффективным средством, позволяющим трансформировать образовательный процесс за счет подбора специального учебного контента с учетом индивидуальных особенностей обучающихся. Вместе с тем возникает необходимость в конкретизации терминологии и определении актуальных направлений исследований в данной области.

For a long time, the study of the brain capabilities for the improvement of the quality of education has been an urgent direction in pedagogical science. Due to the development of digitalization, new areas of research have emerged related to the use of special equipment that makes it possible to assess and control brainwork, develop mental abilities, cognitive functions, etc. One of them is neurotechnology, which is an effective means of transforming the educational process: it offers educational content based on the individual characteristics of students. Thus, a need to concretize the terminology and determine the current research areas arises. The article aims to attempt to fill this gap with the help of a representative analysis of publications on neurotechnologies, as well as the essence of neuroeducation.

Infections Independent of Contamination: From Organic Matter, Evolution or Stem Cells
Authors: Salerian Alen J
Published: December 2021

This study presents evidence to propose that some human infections may derive Independent of contamination by invading pathogens. Diverse data suggest multiple pathways Independent of contamination may generate human infections. For instance, the first microorganisms that emerged from lifeless organic matter 3.6 billion years ago indicated transformation of lifeless organic matter to micro organisms. Viral infections do correspondent to a lifeless protein particle in a cell of a complex multi- cellular organism reproducing and spreading infections to other complex multi- cellular organisms. Some microbes -such as pseudomonas aeruginosa with a larger genome and greater functional complexity than common bacteria -may evolve from human flora as observed in mammalian decomposition in sterile soil. For, decomposer species are not foreign Invaders from the environment and they represent evolution of common microorganisms during mammalian decomposition. Human cells may produce microorganisms consistent with a proven genetic link between humans cells and the Christensenellaceae (a family in the phylum Firmicutes). Human stem cells which are capable to differentiate to epithelial cells and cancer and have the essentials to produce microbes are the most likely candidates to produce microorganisms. What may be almost certain and not experimentally validated is the possibility that infections have multiple pathways of origin independent of contamination. Most nosocomial and opportunistic infections may be endogenous. Our knowledge may demolish the dogma of contamination by foreign microbes as the exclusive source of infections and pave novel avenues to prevent and treat diverse infections.
Protective Effect of QiOne® 2 Pro on Cultured Intestinal Epithelial Cells after Mobile Phone Radiation
Authors: Dartsch Peter C
Published: December 2021

QiOne® 2 Pro is a specific device which creates a static field that stimulates water molecules to undergo a transition into the coherent state. Since our body consists of about 70 to 85% of water (depending on age), this coherent state of the water molecules might increase the cellular resistance against exogenous reliabilities such as electromagnetic fields. In this study, the protective effect of QiOne® 2 Pro against mobile phone radiation was examined by using the cultured intestinal epithelial cells. Unprotected cells and untreated control cells served as point of reference. The cell regeneration process as well as the integrity of the intestinal epithelial barrier was investigated by measuring the transepithelial electrical resistance. Mobile phone radiation caused a reduced cell regenerative activity by approximately 60%, whereas the values were about 15% for QiOne® 2 Pro protected cells and untreated controls, respectively. Moreover, mobile phone radiation caused a rupture on the epithelial barrier in unprotected cells by cell death caused due to the oxidative stress with a complete loss of morphological integrity on the barrier. In contrast, untreated controls and QiOne® 2 Pro protected cells did not show any morphological change on the cell layers with an epithelial barrier of a 10-fold higher transepithelial electrical resistance than the unprotected cells. Overall the results clearly demonstrate the sensitivity of intestinal barrier against oxidative stress generated by mobile phone radiation. In addition, the results also show that the QiOne® 2 Pro device is able to reduce unwanted cellular effects of mobile phone radiation.

Leaf Polymorphism in the seedlings of Coscinium fenestratum (Gaertn.) Colebr.
Authors: Rajeswary Chitra , Hussain Abdul , Anilkumar C.
Published: December 2021

The type or nature of leaf is usually characteristic of a species (monomorphic), although some species produce more than one type of leaf (dimorphic or polymorphic). Some plants have small changes in leaf size and growth habit between juvenile and mature stage (Homoblasty), while some other species have marked changes in leaf shape and growth habit between juvenile and mature stages (Heteroblasty). In Coscinium fenestratum (Gaertn.) Colebr., as a part of seed biology studies, a number of seedlings were raised from the same seed sample which is from the same mother plant. Among the seedlings, 5-10% of the seedlings showed remarkable variations on leaf shape in their juvenile stage. Since leaf shape and allied morphological characters are significant for demarcating Coscinium fenestratum from similarly looking Anamirta cocculus (L.) Wight. & Arn. and Diploclisia glaucascens (Blume.) Diels. of the same family Menispermaceae, documenting the leaf characters of seedling and mature plants deserve unique attention.

Authors: Soorya V. , Radhakrishnan V. , Mohanan K.
Published: December 2021

Curcuma aeruginosa L., popularly known as Travancore starch plant is an underexploited starchy tuber crop belonging to the family Zingiberaceae. An experiment was designed and carried out presently to evaluate the performance of the crop of Curcuma aeruginosa in relation to the status of the planting materials used. Three types of planting materials such as the mother rhizome, primary fingers and secondary fingers of Curcuma aeruginosa collected from the northern districts of Kerala State of India forms the experimental material. Fifteen growth and yield characters were comparatively studied and among them only three such as the number of leaves per tiller, number of primary fingers and diameter of mother rhizome exhibited statistically significant variations in relation to the status of the planting material. The outcome of the present study indicates the advantage of using mother rhizome, primary fingers and secondary fingers as planting materials so that more number of seed rhizomes can be obtained from a single mother plant.

Authors: Chandola Vaishali , Nautiyal Anant
Published: December 2021

The current study was designed to survey the ethno-medicinal knowledge of a tribal community, the Bhotiya. The people of this community have rich ethno-botanic knowledge but due to rapid socio economic changes in mountains, the heritage of knowledge held within the elders is diminishing, and so proper documentation is a need. A door to door questionnaire survey on traditional medicinal knowledge was conducted during frequent visits from December 2012 to May 2013 at the Chhinka village. A total of 34 plants being used medicinally were identified. Out of these 24 (70.5%) were wild and 10 (29.5%) were cultivated. There was great agreement among the informants regarding ethno-medicinal uses of plants with Factor of Informants Consensus (FIC) value ranging from 0.50 to 1.00, with an average value of 0.80. The results show that herbal formulations can actually do wonders in treating some small issues immediately, while severe ones after prolonged use.

Published: December 2021

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is one of the most important plant viruses belonging to the genus Begomovirus of the family Geminiviridae. To identify natural weed hosts that could act as reservoirs of TYLCV, 100 samples were collected at a TYLCV-affected tomato farm in Iksan from 2013 to 2014. The sample weeds were identified as belonging to 40 species from 18 families. TYLCV was detected in 57 samples belonging to 28 species through polymerase chain reaction using root samples including five species (Eleusine indica, Digitaria ciliaris, Echinochloa crus-galli, Panicum dichotomiflorum, and Setaria faberi) from the family Poaceae. Whitefly Bemisia tabaci-mediated TYLCV transmission from TYLCV-infected E. indica plants to healthy tomatoes was confirmed, and inoculated tomatoes showed typical symptoms, such as leaf curling and yellowing. In addition, TYLCV was detected in leaf and root samples of E. indica plants inoculated by both whitefly-mediated transmission using TYLCV-viruliferous whitefly and agro-inoculation using a TYLCV infectious clone. The majority of mastreviruses infect monocotyledonous plants, but there have also been reports of mastreviruses that can infect dicotyledonous plants, such as the chickpea chlorotic dwarf virus. No exception was reported among begomoviruses known as infecting dicots only. This is the first report of TYLCV as a member of the genus Begomovirus infecting monocotyledonous plants.

In this study, we report genetic characterization of Orobanche cumana, the causal agent of sunflower wilting in Serbia. The genetic diversity of this parasitic plant in Serbia was not studied before. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers and partial rbcL gene sequences analysis were used to characterize the O. cumana populations at the molecular level. While phylogenetic analyses of RAPD-PCR amplicons were performed using unweighted pair-group Method analyses, rbcL gene sequences were analyzed using neigbor joining method and minimum spanning tree. Molecular analyses of RAPD-PCR analysis revealed high genetic diversity of O. cumana populations which indicated high adaptive potential of this parasitic weed in Serbia. Further analyses of rbcL gene using minimum spanning tree revealed clear differences among diverse sections of Orobanche genus. Although this molecular marker lacked the resolution to display intrapopulation diversity it could be a useful tool for understanding the evolution of this parasitic plant. Our results suggested that O. cumana has great genetic potential which can lead to differentiation of more virulent races which is important for determining crop breeding strategies for their control.
