Introduction. The effect of various minimally invasive treatment for kidney stones on renal function has not been sufficiently studied. To assess the specificity, severity, and prognostic significance of renal injury of urolithiasis and its minimally invasive treatment, it is necessary to search for «biomarkers of injury». The concentration of serum urea and creatinine used in routine clinical practice, the glomerular filtration rate change in the later stages of the disease and are functional parameters. Materials and methods. The data were searched in the PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, еLibrary.ru using the following keywords: «acute kidney injury», «KIM-1», «kidney injury molecule 1», «NGAL», «neutrophil gelatinase- associated lipocalin», «L-FABP», «liver-type fatty acid binding protein», «cystatin C», «retrograde intrarenal surgery», «percutaneous nephrolithotomy», «kidney injury urolithiasis», «kidney injury nephrolithiasis». Results. Today new biomarkers have been proposed to detect renal injury at the initial stages. These are neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), cystatin C, kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and liver-type fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP). The level of NGAL and KIM-1 increases until the serum creatinine level increases and the corresponding histological changes in the renal parenchyma develop. In percutaneous nephrolithotomy, multiple punctures and postoperative bleeding are independent risk factors for deterioration of renal function in the long term, and the large size and high density of stones, staghorn stones, and long duration of intervention are largely associated with the development of acute renal injury in the early postoperative period. Obstructive uropathy affects kidney damage in the postoperative period. The elimination of obstruction leads to a decrease in KIM-1 in urine already in the early postoperative period. The dynamics of biomarker levels suggests that percutaneous nephrolithotomy causes more renal injury than retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). Conclusion. Аny minimally invasive treatment for kidney stones may lead to renal injury, which is not always accompanied by impaired function. The mechanisms of renal injury in various variants of minimally invasive treatment for kidney stones have specific features, and the short-term and long-term consequences are currently not fully determined. Further research evaluating the effect of various minimally invasive methods of urolithiasis treatment on the condition of the renal tubules using modern biomarkers is needed.

In a study on chemical control of sorghum downy mildew incited by Peronosclerospora sorghi (Weston and Uppal) Shaw, none of the tested fungicides were effective, as a dry seed treatment, against conidial and oosporic infections of the pathogen. In contrast, soaking of seeds with aureofungin 67 ppm a.i. (Aureofungin-sol 30% W/W), metalaxy1 0.2% a.i. (Apron 35 WS) metalaxy1-Ziram 0.2% a.i. (Ridomil ZM, 280 FW) and carboxin 0.1% a.i. (Vitavax 75 WP) for 2 hr effected complete control of the disease. But, metalaxyl, metalaxyl-Ziram, carboxin and not aureofungin significantly inhibited the germination of seeds. According to this study, aureofungin is superior to other selected fungicides from the standpoint of downy mildew control and seed germination. The result was confirmed by a repeated experiment.

In a study on the influence of varieties, spacings and pest management, spraying with monocrotophos 36 WSC at 500 ml/ha. recorded significantly lower infestation of pests and an increase of 10% grain yield. insect resistant cultures IET 6315 and ACM 8 recorded significantly lower incidence of gall midge and stem borer as compared to IR 20. Spacings had no influence on the incidence of the pests and yield. IR 20 at a spacing of 20 x 15 cm, sprayed at ETL recoided the lowest incidence of leaf folder. IET 6315 and ACM 8 recorded significantly lower damage in 20 x 15 cm spacing. The results suggest that gall midge incidence in the moderately resistant varieties can be reduced by adopting a wider spacing and on susceptible varieties with insecticides.

The effects of water stress imposed at different phenophases on growth, yield and its attributes of 'J 11' and 'GG2' groundnut were studied during summer 1985 in lysimeters. Leaf-arca index, days to 50% flowering, days to leaf opening were suppressed due to water stress imposed at all the phenophases, but more so when the crop was stressed during the flowering stage. Yield reduction due to waterstress was maximum during the pod development stage. Reduction in flower fertility, number of effective to total pegs and increase in the percentage of pods due to water stress finally reduced the pod yield. The pod development stage was critical for groundnut yield under water stress. 'GG 2' was comparatively drought tolerant.

Field experiment was conducted during summer season of 1988 to evaluate the availability of N, P, K, Ca and Mg in lowland rice soil (Typic Haplustalf) with the application of graded doses of magnesium and potassium at Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore. Rice crop (Var. IR 64) was grown with four levels of magnesium (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg/ha) combined with four levels of Potassium (0, 25, 50 and 75 kg K20/ha). Application of Magnesium influenced the availability of nitrogen and phosphorous during later stages of the crop growth. The availability of potassium at all stages and calcium in the panicle initiation stage decreased with increasing dose of magnesium indicating antagonistic effect. The availability of magnesium in soil increased due to increased magnesium fertilization while application of potassium decreased the availability of nitrogen and magnesium.

Published: August 2023

The effect of nursery manuring in rice was studied at Tamil Nadu Rice Research Institute, Aduthurai during 1985-1987. Two forms of fertilizers, diammonium phosphate (DAP) and urea plus super phosphate with different levels and time of application were compared. It was inferred that root and shoot length of rice seedlings were significantly influenced by the application of either DAP or urea plus super phosphate. Shoot length of seedlings was significantly increased by applying the fertilizer 10 days after sowing compared to basal application. Increased shoot length with lesser root length eased the pulling out operation with lesser per cent of seedling damage. Grain yield was not influenced by nursery manuring.

Published: August 2023

The study aimed to investigate the threats to the biodiversity of ethnomedicinal plants and to find consensus information on conservation and management practices of ethnomedicinal plants to contribute sustainable utilization of ethnomedicinal plants in Kore district, Southeastern Ethiopia. The result of the survey revealed that sixty-one medicinal plants were reported by the informants from the study area. These plants are distributed in 59 genera and 37 families. Family Lamiaceae and Asteraceae were represented by 5 (8.2%) species for each family and this is the highest number of species and followed by 4 (6.5%) species of Solanaceae and Fabaceae for each family. Preference ranking analysis shows that Eucalyptus globulus scored 47, indicating that it is the most used plant for firewood in the community, followed by Olea europaea (45) and the least used plant for firewood is Juniperus procera scored 36. Paired comparison analysis showed that Olea Europeae ranked first followed by Podocarpus falcatus for the use of charcoal production in the study area. The major purposes of plant species in the study area were construction, Charcoal, Firewood, Furniture, and Fences as well as for medicinal uses. Based on direct matrix ranking analysis Juniperus procera, Eucalyptus globulus, Podocarpus falactus, Olea europaea, Hagenia abyssinica, Croton macrostachyus, and Cordia africana were the most preferred medicinal plants by local people in the study area. The analysis's findings indicated that anthropogenic influences are endangering medicinal plants. In this study area, only about 13% of medicinal plants are collected from home gardens. This shows that the effort made by the community to conserve medicinal plants is not satisfactory. Therefore, encouraging NGOs and Government offices to participate in the conservation of medicinal plants to encourage the local people to plant indigenous trees for domestic use is necessary.

Authors: Sabeha Sabeha , J. Shanan Zainab
Published: August 2023

In the current work, Punica granatum L. peel, Artemisia herba-alba Asso., Matricaria chamomilla L., and Camellia sinensis extracts were used to prepare manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoparticles utilizing a green method. Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis, and Filed emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) analysis were used to evaluate the produced MnO2 NPs. FE-SEM pictures demonstrated how agglomerated nanoparticles formed. According to FE-SEM calculations, the particle size ranged from 18.7-91.5 nm. FTIR spectra show that pure Mn-O is formed, while EDX results show that Mn and O are present. The ability to suppress biofilm growth in the produced MnO2 NPs was examined. The outcomes showed that both bacterial and fungal biofilms were effectively inhibited by the MnO2 NPs produced.
Fractional Pantograph Delay Equations Solving by the Meshless Methods
Authors: M. N. Jasim Shefaa , H. Ibraheem Ghada
Published: August 2023

This work describes two efficient and useful methods for solving fractional pantograph delay equations (FPDEs) with initial and boundary conditions. These two methods depend mainly on orthogonal polynomials, which are the method of the operational matrix of fractional derivative that depends on Bernstein polynomials and the operational matrix of the fractional derivative with Shifted Legendre polynomials. The basic procedure of this method is to convert the pantograph delay equation to a system of linear equations and by using, the operational matrices we get rid of the integration and differentiation operations, which makes solving the problem easier. The concept of Caputo has been used to describe fractional derivatives. Finally, some numerical examples are identified to show the utility and capability of the two proposed approaches. Mathematica®12 program has been relied upon in the calculations.

The gland consists of two lobes (right and left), and it is surrounded by a capsule of connective tissue consisting of two outer and inner layers, and a layer of fatty tissue overlaps with the outer layer of the capsule. In addition, the results of this study found that the histological structure of the thyroid gland is composed of several follicles that appear in different sizes and shapes. The follicles are lined with simple cuboidal epithelial tissue and sometimes appear lined with high and low simple cuboidal epithelial tissue. The gland is histologically composed of two types of cells: epithelial cells and parafollicular cells, or calcitonin cells (C-cells), the latter being few in number compared to the epithelial cells and appearing as single cells or forming clusters in two locations: the first is between the follicular and the second is intrafollicular.

Discursive personality of a politician in the genre of American political debates: Intertextual references as a means of actualising discrediting tactics
Authors: Stepanova Nataliia Valentinovna
Published: August 2023

The aim of the study is to identify the role of intertextual references as a means of implementing discrediting tactics in the discourse of an American politician – presidential candidate. The study is novel in that it is the first to consider intertextual references in media political discourse as an effective tool for the implementation of discrediting tactics based on a three-stage analysis of the discourse of debates within the framework of N. Fairclough’s model. In addition, the scientific novelty of the study consists in identifying the features of the speech behaviour of each of the political figures, including some gender-specific characteristics. In particular, it was found that gender differences between candidates can serve as a basis for the implementation of discrediting tactics. The results showed that the dominant types of intertextual references as a means of implementing discrediting tactics were reference, allusion and quotation. Speech aggression can be considered the leading communicative tone of the discursive personality of a politician participating in the debates. It was proved that the discursive personality of a politician influences the choice and nature of the implementation of communicative tactics.
Linguistic means expressing the acceleration and slowing down of time in various types of literary speech (based on the novels by Anglo-American authors)
Authors: Demina Elena Anatolyevna
Published: August 2023

The paper examines linguistic means that express slowed and accelerated flow of time in the novels by American and British authors. The aim of the research is to demonstrate the fact that such types of literary speech as description and narration can effectively express different speed of time in combination with linguistic means. The scientific novelty of the work consists in determining the atypical meaning of Future Simple and Present Progressive in the context that reveals the character’s perception of time, as well as in identifying the specific contents of narration that can contribute to the transmission of time acceleration by linguistic means: changes in the size of objects, their rotational movement, illusion of counter motion, the character’s rapid movement in space. The results of the study showed that polysyndeton can create opposite effects: slow down (description of subjects) and accelerate time (narration about planned actions). It was also found that Present Progressive, if used unconventionally in the narration about events of the distant past, renders the slowing down of time.
Morality as a subject: Variability of evaluativeness and transformation of meanings (based on the material of the electronic corpus of the German language DWDS-Korpus)
Authors: Khakhalova Svetlana Alexeyevna , Nevolina Ksenia Viktorovna
Published: August 2023

The aim of the study is to determine the semantic and axiological features of morality as a subject. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the authors’ approach to analysing and describing metaphors-phrases with the common component ‘Moral’ in moral discourse. As a result of the study, it has been found that the abstract noun ‘Moral’, the basic semantic content of which is objectivity, undergoes culturally and socially conditioned changes and is able to transform its semantic content into subjectivity. Morality as a subject has an unstable status, is prone to changes in time, space and quantity. The strengthening of its semantic content is due to the use of the metaphtonymies ‘Moral siegt’ and ‘Moral sinkt’, which have the contextual meanings of UP and DOWN in their semantics, underlying the conceptual metaphors UP is STRENGTH, DOWNWARD MOVEMENT is THE LOSS OF VALUE. It has been found that in the German linguistic consciousness, there is a vector of negative orientation, while the lack of morality is a distinctive social feature of modern consumer society.

Smooth plant production is utmost expected by plant owners since any unplanned shutdown is very much undesirable as it may incur loss of company’s profits and other repercussions. Critical operational assets such as rotating machineries and their components, e.g., motor, pump, compressor, and turbines are crucial to be monitored in ensuring continuous operation of the plant. Therefore, vibration being one of the elements in predictive maintenance is much needed. This paper addressesthe monitoring and findings for predictive maintenance on high vibration of a make-up gas compressor in one of the oil & gas and petrochemical plant in Malaysia. The conventional vibration measurement using vibration analyzer was utilized to identify the severity of the machine vibrations through the overall vibration value obtained on the motor and compressor. A specialized vibration measurement technique, namely, Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) was further deployed to verify the presence of resonance on the equipment by obtaining its dynamic characteristics, i.e., natural frequency and mode shape. The findings showed clear indication of resonance occurrence as similar frequency (112 Hz) was identified from both vibration measurement and operational modal analysis.

This paperexamined the mediating roleof entrepreneurship knowledge and skill acquisition (EKSA) in the interaction between entrepreneurship education (EE) and students' intention to launch a business (SILB), in the case of Nigeria. A quantitative correlational design was adopted for the study. A structured questionnaire was used for data collection. The questionnaire for data collection was validated once by three experts, two from the field of business education and one from the field of measurement and assessment. Pearson's correlation statistic, linear regression statistic and bias-corrected bootstrapping technique were performed to analyse the data collected from a randomly selected sample of 412 university students. The results of the Pearson’s correlation analysis showed asignificant correlation among EE, EKSA and SILB. The results of the linear regression analysis also indicated asignificant association among EE, EKSA and SILB. The results of the bias corrected bootstrapping technique also showed that EKSA mediates the association between EE and SILB. The results showed the extent of association between EE and SILB and offer some logical implications for curriculum designers, university students anduniversity administrators. This study contributed significantly to EE, EKSA and SILB literature.
Commodities in Context

Earlier historians of medicine have often accepted medieval Russia’s isolation from Eurasian networks for exchanging knowledge, offering the absence of medical texts as proof of an absence of information. By contrast, this article argues that the Silk Roads’ connections to Russia consistently supplied pharmaceutical products and knowledge through merchants and their commodities, rather than through texts. This conclusion agrees with the idea of anthropologist Ken Adler, who advocated for considering commodities to be “thick things,” acquiring meanings and information necessary for their consumption and use. The study of material culture, therefore, offers an alternate approach for understanding Russia’s exchanges with East and West, rather than accepting that an absence of texts is proof of an absence of knowledge.
