Relevance. Fixed prostheses made in the traditional way, as a rule, have an effect on the marginal periodontal. The objective criterion for assessing the periodontal reaction is the quantity and quality of the gingival fluid secreted as the physiological environment of the body, blood serum transudate filling the gingival furrow, the amount of which increases sharply with the development of the inflammatory process. The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of fixed prostheses made by traditional and digital methods on the condition of periodontal tissues by measuring the amount of gingival fluid. Materials and methods. The amount of gingival fluid was determined by absorption using strips of filter paper. Detection of areas soaked in gum fluid was carried out by staining strips of filter paper in blue or blue with 0.2% alcohol solution of ninhydrin, the effect of which is based on the discovery of α-amino groups in protein. After that, photographs of strips of filter paper were obtained and the area of impregnation of strips with gingival fluid was measured in the Image J computer program. Results. It was found that the amount of gingival fluid secreted in patients with prosthetics using digital technologies is 34,3% less in comparison with the traditional method of manufacturing prosthodontical structures. Conclusion. Evaluation of the periodontal reaction of the supporting teeth covered with artificial crowns made digitally by studying the amount of gingival fluid showed that the figures obtained are closer to the boundary values (average value 0,4372 ± 0,06277 mm2), reflecting their significantly less influence on the condition of the marginal periodontal compared with the traditional method of manufacturing fixed prostheses (average value 0,6597 ± 0,106 mm2) primarily due to their higher accuracy.

The Gampong-Owned Enterprises program is precisely in Gampong Lancang Barat, Dewantara District, North Aceh Regency. BUMG is one form of strategy to mobilize the economic sector and community empowerment, especially in Gampong. This BUMG is named BUMG Makmue Beusaree and currently there are two types of businesses that are still running, namely tent rental and ADG Printing located in Tambon Baroh Village, Krueng Geukueh. This research method uses a qualitative approach descriptive type of analysis and uses the theory of policy implementation proposed by Edward III which focuses on communication and resources.  The phenomenon that occurs is related to the obstacles that hinder the BUMG program, including the lack of human resources who have expertise and the lack of communication and special socialization that makes the development of BUMG not optimal and has not been able to develop a wide range of community economic empowerment through the BUMG program, thus causing community participation to reduce its contribution. The results showed that the implementation of the BUMG program has been running conceptually, this is indicated by the benefits resulting from the BUMG program can increase the original income of Lancang Gampong Barat, the obstacle is the lack of community participation to contribute due to a lack of understanding of the program caused by a lack of socialization and coordination this makes its implementation not optimal, thus making the BUMG program unable to absorb a lot of labor or human resources from the Lancang Gampong Barat community. The village government must be able to assess the quality of the community for their abilities and create programs that are in accordance with the potential of the village so that the objectives of the BUMG program will be carried out properly.

HSV-2 is a common human pathogen that can cause primary and recurrent infection of the mucous membrane. Genital infection with HSV-2 facilitates the acquisition of HIV, both mutually reinforcing infection. Infection with herpes simplex virus type 2 is a significant public health problem being the leading cause of genital ulcerative disease. This study aimed at Molecular investigation and association of HIV and HSV-2 IgM co-infection among asymptomatic pregnant women in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. This is a cross-sectional study conducted at the antenatal unit of the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital (UPTH), River State. A total of 168 consenting pregnant women were selected. The study involved collecting socio-demographic data and laboratory determination of HSV-2 immunoglobulin M (IgM) and HIV seroprevalence using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (DIAPRO Diagnostic Bioprobes, Milan, Italy) and ALERE determine/STAT PAK respectively. Data analysis was done using graph pad statistical package. Chi square analysis was used to determine the correlation of the infection with socio-demographic factors. The seroprevalence for HSV-2 IgM was 29.8% (50/168) of the respondents while there was no co-infection between IgM and HIV. All HIV respondents were married. Majority are trader having tertiary educational qualification and are in a monogamous relationship. With regard to IgM seropositivity age, marital status, religion and gestation period were significantly associated with IgM while educational level, occupation, type of family and parity were not significantly associated with HSV-2 IgM. There is a significant correlation between HIV seropositivity with parity and history of sexually transmitted disease while there is no significant difference between HIV prevalence with age, marital status education level occupation type of family, religion history of abortion and the prevalence of HSV-2 was high among women of childbearing age in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Effort should be made to increase the awareness of HSV-2 and HIV infection among the childbearing populace and serological testing of pregnant women should be included as a routine test.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui engineering performance and science performance siswa SMP pada materi kalor dan perpindahannya ditinjau dari perbedaan gender. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif kualitatif dengan pendekatan etnografi. Penelitian ini dilakukan sebanyak 4 kali pertemuan dengan partisipan 6 orrang siswa dari salah satu SMP di kabupaten Jember. Data diperoleh dari hasil observasi, dokumentasi, dan wawancara. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Engineering performance siswa laki-laki lebih unggul dibandingkan perempuan, tetapi tidak menunjukkan hasil yang sangat signifikan. Hal ini disebabkan karena siswa laki-laki secara signifikan lebih terlibat dalam kepemimpinan aktif, sebaliknya partisipasi siswa perempuan seringkali berfokus pada bantuan pasif. Selain itu, science performance siswa perempuan lebih mendominasi dibandingkan laki-laki, terlihat cukup signifikan jumlahnya. Perempuan lebih unggul di science performance pada bagian menjelaskan konsep sains kepada anggota kelompoknya, melalukan pencatatan, dan mengarahkan serta lebih berani untuk meminta pendapat dari guru. Sedangkan siswa laki-laki lebih kepada perilaku mengamati aktivitas secara pasif.

Proposta de educação de Jair Bolsonaro e suas comparações com a ditadura militar brasileira
Authors: Nunes Silva Brito Eugênio , Vilácio Pereira da Silva Magno , Calbino Pinheiro Daniel
Published: August 2023

O presente artigo tem como objetivo compreender as condições estruturais que condicionaram a qualidade da educação no Governo Militar (1964-1985) e a proposta de educação do Governo de Jair Bolsonaro (2019-2022). Pretende analisar as diferenças e semelhanças de concepção sobre a educação de ambos os Governos. Também faz uma reflexão sobre a implantação de uma educação militar como único caminho para se combater a má qualidade da educação e a violência percebida nas escolas. Mostra que o Governo Bolsonaro apontou a implantação de uma educação nos moldes dos colégios militares como único caminho para se chegar a qualidade da educação. Concluiu-se que não é a pedagogia aplicada nos colégios militares a única responsável pelo bom desempenho desses colégios. Percebeu-se também que as IFE’s e alguns colégios civis, que tiveram investimento para fomentar a educação, apontaram desempenhos semelhantes e até melhores, e com despesas menores para a sua manutenção ao serem comparadas às despesas elevadas com a manutenção do ensino militar.
The Fruits of Spiritual Experiences during the Pandemic: COVID-19 and the Effects of Non-Ordinary Experiences
Authors: Schmidt Bettina E. , Stockly Kate
Published: August 2023

This paper presents new research about spiritual experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim is to discuss the impact of spiritual experiences on people’s lives and relationships. Building upon William James’ four features of the “fruits” of religious experience as a conceptual frame, the paper presents data from two surveys in which participants narrated spiritual experiences and reflected on the impacts of those experiences. We start with a short presentation of James’ ideas about the fruits of religious experience. The next section outlines four themes that have emerged from the narratives of spiritual experiences during the pandemic: impacts on people’s relationships with their religious communities, shifts in one’s subjective sense of spiritual connection and intuition, encounters with spiritual figures and near-death experiences, and interpretations of COVID-19 as a spiritual contagion. The final section broadens the discussion from the impact of specific spiritual experiences to include spiritual responses to the pandemic more generally, leading to a discussion of the experiences within the wider debate in fruits of religious experience.
Phallogocentrism, Global Entanglements and Comparison in the Study of Religion
Authors: Maltese Giovanni
Published: August 2023

Along with the critique of generic terms, such as religion or mysticism, regarded as Western-centric, comparison in religious studies has been faulted for reinforcing Western dominance over the rest of the world. Global Religious History claims to constructively address these charges by focusing on global entanglements. On closer inspection, however, if the latter are theorized at all, an astounding exclusion comes to the fore: the omission of gender as category of knowledge. Engaging this phallogocentrism in Global Religious History, this article calls for a conceptualization of global entanglements that takes this omission seriously. As a case study, I use a tract published serially in a Singapore-based Islamic missionary journal (1938–1941), to argue that a revised conceptualization of global entanglements can help to uncover the contributions of non-hegemonic subjects to contemporary discourses on religion, mysticism, Islam, and Sufism, as well as to the comparative study of religion.
Toward a Conceptual Understanding of Inclusion as Intersubjective Experiences
Authors: Haegele Justin A. , Maher Anthony J.
Published: August 2023

Inclusion has become a global buzzword relating to education policy and practice. Mostly, it is tied to discussions about access and opportunities in education spaces as well as school policies and the curriculum decisions and pedagogical actions of teachers. As part of this critique, we propose defining inclusion as intersubjective experiences associated with feelings of belonging, acceptance, and value that are dynamic, ephemeral, spatial, and in flux. Here, we advocate for centering the experiences and amplifying the voices of disabled children and young people in and about education spaces, while acknowledging the wider social forces that structure those spaces, as only disabled young people can explain how they feel in the educational spaces where they find themselves.

Cankers leading to branch, stem and plant death were observed on the South African endemic Rafnia amplexicaulis (Fabaceae) in the Cederberg Wilderness Area, South Africa, during September 2021. Conidiomatal pycnidia were found developing on the cankers, and isolations
consistently yielded a Microsphaeropsis species. Phylogenetic analysis based on partial nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed spacers (ITS), the nuclear large subunit (LSU) and RNA polymerase II second largest subunit (RPB2) regions showed that the fungus represented
an undescribed species. Based on the multigene phylogeny and morphological characteristics, we describe the species here as M. rafniae sp. nov. Pathogenicity tests and the fulfilment of Koch's postulates confirmed that M. rafniae sp. nov. is the cause of the cankers of R.
amplexicaulis. Presently, this disease is known from a single location in South Africa, and further surveys are required to determine its distribution and relative importance.

Navigating the Complex Web of Insecure Attachments
Authors: Jin Ruining
Published: August 2023

The youth's insecure attachments during adolescence, particularly with significant family members such as parents, symbolize a profound lack of trust and a sense of security in intimate relationships. As these youngsters transition into adulthood, they often display heightened skepticism and distrust toward others. This defensive posture makes it challenging for them to solicit external help and support when confronted with problems or adversities [1].
Speed of gravity can be different from the speed of light
Authors: Sharipov Ruslan Abdulovich
Published: August 2023

In Einstein’s relativity each massless field should propagate with the speed of light, including the gravitational field. The 3D-brane universe model is an alternative theory of gravity. Unlike Einstein’s relativity, it is not so restrictive. In the present paper we build the theory of electromagnetism in a curved 3D-brane universe where the speed of gravity c_gr can be different from the speed of electromagnetic waves c_el, which is the speed of light.
How Implementation Barriers Reduce Program Effectiveness: A Quasi-Experimental Study on an Extended School Week in 30 Primary Schools
Authors: Custers Gijs
Published: August 2023

This study investigates the impact of an extended school week in 30 primary schools on track recommendations, an achievement-related outcome, at the school level. The intervention is part of a major urban policy in one of the most disadvantaged areas in the Netherlands. Register data are used to examine changes in track recommendations between 2010-2020. Control schools are selected through genetic matching based on educational and demographic variables, after which comparative interrupted time series estimate the causal effect. The findings show that, on average, track recommendations in the intervention schools did not structurally increase compared to the control schools. We critically discuss how these results might relate to implementation barriers such as the partial top-down design, program quality and coordination, and teacher shortages. We contribute to the literature by showing how difficulties with program implementation are likely to produce null findings.
Diplomatic Relations and Conflict Management: A Dynamic Analysis
Authors: Kenkel Brenton
Published: August 2023

Are formal diplomatic relations a cause of peace, and if so, why? I analyze this question using new data on the timing of changes in American diplomatic representation abroad in combination with an integrated formal and statistical model of a dynamic decision problem. Unlike reduced form models, the structural approach allows me to disentangle long-run from short-run influences in the reciprocal relationship between diplomatic ties and peace. The estimation results indicate that a reciprocal relationship indeed exists; diplomatic ties increase the US incentive to behave peacefully, and ongoing conflict makes the US more likely to cut off diplomatic relations. A close examination of the structural parameters suggests that this relationship is best explained by diplomatic ties serving as a long-run commitment device: it is costly for the US to maintain diplomatic ties during a time of crisis, so the US will be relatively hesitant to initiate a dispute with a country once it has established a diplomatic presence there.
Platform Governance: The Antitrust Option
Authors: Akanbi Opeyemi , Hill Stephanie , Shtern Jeremy
Published: August 2023

Background: This policy review unpacks the complexities of applying competition law to platforms. These complexities arise from competing schools of thought, multisided market environments, and a limited capacity to address broader questions of platform governance.

Analysis: A comparative analysis of a selection of cases and legislation is used to illuminate the diversity of approaches within competition and antitrust laws.

Conclusions and implications: Reform-minded scholars, activists, and policymakers should engage the antitrust option with realistic expectations and simultaneously continue to seek policy alternatives to this framework.

Beyond Funding: Barriers to Extending Broadband in the Indigenous North
Authors: Hudson Heather E. , McMahon Rob , Murdoch Bill
Published: August 2023

Background: Policies for developing broadband in rural and remote regions typically focus on infrastructure funding. This article postulates that funding may be necessary but is often not sufficient to install and operate sustainable broadband services in these areas.

Analysis: This article analyzes issues raised in recent Canadian regulatory proceedings concerning broadband deployment and evidence submitted by Indigenous and community broadband providers that serve rural and remote regions in the Canadian North.

Conclusions and implications: Several suggestions are provided to improve policies designed to extend reliable and affordable broadband and to facilitate the provision of services by small and Indigenous providers. These include reconsideration of northern jurisdictions to harmonize regulations, a Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission office dedicated to Indigenous issues, requirements for Indigenous consultation and training and hiring of residents, and procedures to expedite installation and procurement for Indigenous networks.

Abstract The purpose of research. To substantiate the agrotechnical requirements for the seeder for accurate (uniform in depth and placement on the area) sowing for grain ear crops of the continuous row method of sowing. The optimal area for plant nutrition and the depth of wrapping winter wheat seeds were determined. Research methods. A field method – to determine the interaction of the object of research with the elements of technology: depth of seed wrapping and feeding area; calculated and weighted – determining the yield of winter wheat. Results. The best conditions for realizing the biological ability of winter wheat plants of the Tobak variety to form the highest grain productivity were during sowing according to the scheme of 7х7 cm and a feeding area of 49 cm2. The yield increase compared to the control (row method of sowing with 15 cm between rows) is 1.05 t/ha, or 13.1%. On the variant with a feeding area of 36 cm2 with a 6х6 cm sowing scheme, the grain yield decreased by 0.15 t/ha, compared to the 7x7 cm scheme. On these two most productive variants, the sowing rate was only 130 kg/ha and 97 kg, respectively /Ha. It is important to note that even with the maximum feeding area (10x10 cm), where only 45 kg/ha of seeds (1.0 million/ha) were sown, the yield remained high and amounted to 7.40 t/ha. In the experiment to study the depth of sowing, the highest yield of the RZHT Reform variety of winter wheat was formed on variants with a 2 cm and 3 cm depth of wrapping, respectively 8.22 t/ha and 8.30 t/ha. Deepening of the seeds by 4 cm led to a yield decreasing by 0.22 t/ha. For sowing to a 5 cm depth the yield was decreased by 0.43 t/ha. Increasing of the sowing depth to 6 cm and 7 cm significantly reduced the yield. Conclusions. The need for uniform placement of seeds on the area and depth requires the creation of a seeder with precise sowing of grain crops seeds of continuous row method of sowing. However, precision sowing has no proper biological and technological grounds. As a result of the research, the optimal parameters of the area of winter wheat plant nutrition (6x6 cm and 7x7 cm) and the depth of seed sowing (2-3 cm) were substantiated. It was concluded that the application of the appropriate technology for growing grain crops with the use of precision seed drills will allow to reduce seed sowing rates by half and increase the field productivity of grain. Key words: winter wheat, feeding area, sowing depth, precision seed drill.

Summary The purpose of research: Evaluation of the impact of soil tillage systems on grain productivity and efficiency of growing new corn hybrids in the soil and climatic conditions of western Ukraine. Research methods: Field trials were conducted in Western Ukraine on fields with sod-podzolic carbonate-gley soils. The total experimental field area of 6 ha was divided into 15 experimental plots with three tillage systems (conventional, conservation, mulching) and five maize hybrids of different indices and maturity groups («Ajax» (FAO 210), «Amaros» (FAO 230), «Danubio» (FAO 260),» DSK 3730» (FAO 280) and «Artenio» (FAO 340)). The indicators were determined in three replications at each experimental site. Research results: The research has established that the highest yields of corn grain were obtained in plots with hybrids «Amaros» (FAO 230) and «DCS 3730» (FAO 280), which amounted to 11.59 and 11.37 t/ha, respectively. It should be noted that the «Amaros» hybrid responds well to shelf loosening of the soil, with a grain yield of 12.34 t/ha on the background of ploughing, and the «DCS 3730» hybrid formed the highest grain yield (12.18 t/ha) in the variant with mulching tillage. The grain productivity of hybrids «Ajax» (FAO 210) and «Danubio» (FAO 260) is approximately the same and was at the level of 10.24 and 10.65 t/ha, respectively. The lowest average grain yield (9.72 t/ha) for all tillage options was obtained in the mid-season hybrid «Artenio» (FAO 340). Grain yields of the studied hybrids in plots with conventional tillage ranged from 10.34 to 12.34 t/ha, with conservation tillage - from 9.03 to 11.42 t/ha, and with mulching tillage - from 9.57 to 12.18 t/ha. On average, all plots with conventional tillage had a profit of 43518 UAH/ha, which is 10.0% and 6.9% higher than in the variants with conservation tillage and mulching systems. Conclusions. It was found that medium-early maize hybrids Ajax, Amaros, Danubio respond positively to the depth of cultivation and intensity of soil crumbling (traditional and conservation systems). The hybrid DKS 3730 produced the highest grain yield in the area with mulch tillage. The highest economic efficiency of growing corn for grain was obtained in variants with traditional tillage, with the exception of the DSK 3730 hybrid, for which mulch tillage was the most effective. In terms of economic effect, the conservation tillage system was the worst. Key words: corn, tillage systems, corn hybrids, yield, efficiency.

Summary Purpose of the study is to analyze the requirements for the construction of modern small poultry farms for keeping poultry of various species. Research methods. Analytical studies devoted to the requirements for the construction of small poultry farms were conducted based on available scientific and informational reports by means of an analysis of the current state of this problem in European countries. Results. It was noted that during the construction of small poultry farms, it is important to comply with the requirements for the placement of poultry, depending on the available land in the farm and the dimensional characteristics of buildings for keeping poultry. Research in the conditions of a poultry farm was analyzed, with a comparison of different types of bedding materials. The main trends in the construction of small poultry farms were noted: the placement of poultry depending on the available land in the farm and the dimensional characteristics of the buildings; small hangar-type buildings for keeping poultry; mobile poultry houses; the main method of keeping poultry is floor; cascading keeping of chickens on three levels; the floor in the poultry house must be waterproof; the slatted floor can occupy only a limited area of the poultry house; use of bedding materials, including non-traditional ones; calculation of the thermal balance of the building; organic production of poultry products; landscaping of walking areas for birds. Conclusions. The analysis of the requirements for the construction of modern small poultry farms testified that in European countries with developed poultry farming there is a constant process of improving buildings for keeping poultry in order to effectively manage the industry and obtain high-quality products.

Summary The purpose of the work is to highlight the results of forecasting the yield and production of the main agricultural crops in 2023 based on the operational data of remote agromonitoring and the assessment of indirect losses of the gross harvest of grain and leguminous crops in Ukraine under martial law. Methods and materials. Predictive estimates of the yield of agricultural crops are calculated on the basis of statistical data on their productivity for the period 2000-2022 and remote agricultural monitoring data (NDVI indices) on the state of crops in Ukraine in the spring of 2023. Standard methods of correlation-regression analysis were used to establish relationships between NDVI indicators and regional average yield values of the main field crops. Potential indirect production losses of the group of grain and leguminous crops in Ukraine in 2023 were calculated based on the dynamics of the reduction of sowing and harvesting areas in the conditions of martial law and, accordingly, from the losses for the country’s agrarian sector due to the lack of potential profit from the sale of grain, estimated at domestic purchase prices. Results. According to estimates based on actual winter sowing volumes and spring sowing rates, the harvested area of grain and leguminous crops in 2023 is expected to be about 10.4 million hectares. The average yield of grain and leguminous crops in Ukraine as a whole is predicted with a probability of 80-85% at the level of 47-49 t/ha, which according to preliminary estimates is close to last year’s value and the average indicators of the pre-war level. At the same time, the gross harvest of grain and leguminous crops is expected at the level of 48.4-50.5 million tons, compared to the average pre-war level of 75 million tons. That is, the losses from military aggression only for the loss of production of this group of crops currently reach about 25-24 million tons or more than UAH 150 billion. Conclusions. Military aggression against Ukraine will have negative consequences for the cultivation of agricultural crops in 2023, mainly due to the shortage of mineral fertilizers, pesticides and other means of production, the general reduction of sown areas and a number of other negative economic consequences, however, the projected production volumes of grain crops are currently sufficient to ensure needs of the Ukrainian population.
