Fractional differintegral operators of the generalized Mittag-Leffler type function
Authors: Dinesh Kumar  , S.D. Purohit
Published: May 2023

In the present paper we study a new function called as R-function [6], which is an extension of the generalized Mittag-Leffler functions. We derive the relations that exist between the R-function and Saigo-Maeda fractional calculus operators. Some results derived by Kumar and Kumar [6], Kilbas [4], Kilbas and Saigo [5]; and Sharma and Jain [23] are special cases of the main results derived in this paper.

Concept Lattice: A rough set approach
Authors: Dipankar Rana  , Sankar Kumar Roy
Published: May 2023

Concept lattice is an efficient tool for knowledge representation and knowledge discovery and is applied to many fields successfully. However, in many real life applications, the problem under investigation cannot be described by formal concepts. Such concepts are called the non-definable concepts. The hierarchical structure of formal concept (called concept lattice) represents a structural information which obtained automatically from the input data table. We deal with the problem in which how further additional information be supplied to utilize the basic object attribute data table. In this paper , we provide rough concept lattice to incorporate the rough set into the concept lattice by using equivalence relation. Some results are established to illustrate the paper.

Caste and Religion Matters in Access to Housing, Drinking Water, and Toilets: Empirical Evidence from National Sample Surveys, India
Authors: Mishra Vinod Kumar
Published: May 2023

This article aims to provide a systematic analysis of inter-group inequality in access to good quality housing and basic amenities. It also attempts to discuss the socio-economic determinants of accessing housing and basic amenities. The article provides evidence of social identity-based discrimination by implying econometric analysis of decomposition methods. The findings of the article demonstrate that social group identities such as caste and religion play a significant role in determining the sufficiency, continuity and quality of housing and basic amenities. Inter-group inequality in accessing these essential services is significantly high in both rural and urban areas. The results of logistic regression model and decomposition method used in the article shows that social identity-based discrimination reduces the sufficiency and quality of housing and basic services availed by marginalized social groups such as scheduled caste, scheduled tribe and religious minorities. It can be argued from the analysis that right to adequate housing in terms of good quality dwelling and access to drinking water and sanitation is adversely affected by social exclusion and discrimination experienced by marginalized social groups.

Authors: ESKALEN Hasan , KAVGACI Mustafa
Published: May 2023

It is crucial to find effective solutions to environmental contamination that are also ecologically friendly. Zinc oxide (ZnO) is well-known as a good photocatalyst. In this work, ZnO microspheres were synthesized using the solvothermal technique. X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis, and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) were used to evaluate the structural, optical, and morphological features of ZnO microspheres . The hexagonal structure of ZnO was determined using XRD analysis. The crystal size of ZnO was calculated using XRD patterns and was found to be 44.27 nm by the Debye-Scherrer equation, 32.39 nm using the Williamson Hall model, and 9.92 nm by the Modified Scherrer formula. The SEM pictures of the manufactured ZnO revealed that it has a shape in the form of microspheres formed by the conjunction of hexagonal nanorods. The average diameter of these microspheres is 5.16 μm. ZnO has a band gap energy of 3.1 eV. The photocatalytic activities of ZnO microspheres against methylene blue and Rhodamine B dyes were examined. Under sunlight, photocatalytic removal rates for methylene blue after 90 minutes and Rhodamine B after 120 minutes were 98.95% and 98.62%, respectively.

Bu çalışmada, havada kür edilen uçucu kül (UK) ve atık cam tozu (CT) esaslı geopolimer, CEM I çimentolu (PÇ) geleneksel ve hibrit (UK+PÇ, CT+PÇ, UK+CT+PÇ) geopolimer harçların mekanik özelliklerine yüksek sıcaklığın etkisi araştırılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında üretilen harç karışımlarına eğilme ve basınç dayanımı ile 400ºC, 600ºC ve 800ºC’de yüksek sıcaklık deneyleri uygulanmıştır. Ayrıca üretilen harçlara Yaşam Döngüsü Analizi (YDA) uygulanarak karışımların Küresel Isınma Potansiyeli (KIP, eşdeğer CO2 emisyonları) değerleri hesaplanmıştır. Geopolimer ve hibrit harç karışımlarında alkali aktivatör olarak sodyum silikat (SS) ve sodyum hidroksit (SH) kullanılmıştır. UK, CT ve PÇ’nin eşit miktarda kullanıldığı hibrit geopolimer karışımda, bu üç malzemenin bir arada kullanıldığı diğer hibrit geopolimer harçlara göre daha yüksek dayanımlar elde edilmiştir. Üç malzemenin de eşit miktarda kullanılması hem malzemelerin etkin kullanımı hem de performans açısından sinerjik bir etki görülmesini sağlamıştır. Hibrit geopolimer harçlarda 800ºC’de deney öncesine göre %280’e varan dayanım artışları tespit edilmiştir. %100 PÇ içeren kontrol karışımına göre CO2 emisyonlarında, sadece UK veya CT içeren geopolimer harçlarda % 47.7’ye, UK, CT ve PÇ’nin beraber kullanıldığı hibrit geopolimer harçlarda ise %31’e varan azalmalar kaydedilmiştir.
The efficiency of volumetric apparent diffusion coefficient histogram analysis in breast papillary neoplasms
Authors: Nalbant Mustafa Orhan , Gemici Aysegul Akdogan , Karadag Mehmet , Inci Ercan
Published: May 2023

Background/Aim: Papillary neoplasia encompasses both malignant and benign lesions, and core needle biopsy (CNB) is crucial in their diagnosis. Histological findings determine their management. Here we compare volumetric apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) histogram analysis of carcinomas and benign pathologies identified by histopathology from excisional biopsies.
Methods: This retrospective study included 524 patients who underwent breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for a suspicious breast mass from January 2018 to October 2022. Patients with benign lesions, incompatible ultrasound-guided CNB results with papillary neoplasia, and those with MRI exams insufficient for diagnosis due to motion artifacts were excluded. After applying the exclusion criteria, the study included 48 patients (average aged 61.5 (14.8) years; range, 31 to 72 years). After excisional biopsies, 30 benign lesions and 18 carcinomas were identified. MRI was acquired at 1.5 T (Verio; Siemens Medical Solutions, Erlangen, Germany), and the b-values for diffusion-weighted imaging were calculated at 1000 s/mm2. Histogram parameters were computed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to investigate diagnostic accuracy, evaluate histogram analysis performance, and determine threshold values.
Results: The ADCmin, ADCmean, ADCmax, and all ADC value percentiles were significantly lower in the carcinoma group than in the benign group (P<0.001). The variance, skewness, and kurtosis were higher in the carcinoma group. ADCmax had the highest area under the curve (AUC: 0.985; cut-off 1.247 × 10-3 mm2/s; sensitivity 86%, and specificity 92%), followed by ADCmean (AUC: 0.950; cut-off 0.903 × 10-3 mm2/s; sensitivity 94%, and specificity 96%).
Conclusion: Volumetric ADC histogram analysis of papillary neoplasia at higher b-values can be an imaging marker to detect carcinoma and quantitatively reveal the lesions’ diffusion characteristics.

Some rhetorical devices in lyrical rock-discourse (at the example of the russian musical group «Elysium»’s discourse)
Authors: Alekseev Aleksandr
Published: May 2023

In the article, with the help of general scientific and linguistic methods, primarily linguostylistic and contextual analyses, the study of lyrical rock-discourse is continued. The emphasis is made on its hybrid nature, viz. Placement between rock, poetical and, perhaps, interactive (juvenile) discourses. It has been found out that among different tools of rhetorical influence, made use of in the studied variation of rock-discourse, tropes, the most common of which are metaphors and epithets, have an important role. In the research, the cases of pragmatic application of personal pronouns and graphics are considered. Attention is paid to the personality of the lyrical hero (heroine) that is shown to be a language personality as well.

Published: May 2023

Glucocorticoids are often used as immunosuppressant and anti-inflammatory therapy in various medical conditions. In addition to providing clinical benefits, glucocorticoids have various side effects, one of which is related to steroid-induced diabetes mellitus (SIDM). Steroid-induced diabetes mellitus can be a new onset or an exacerbation of hyperglycemia in patients who have previously been diagnosed with DM. Acute and chronic hyperglycemia due to steroids can have an impact on lengthening hospitalization, infectious complications, decreased response to therapy and increased mortality. The challenges of managing steroid-induced diabetes mellitus vary widely. Understanding of pathophysiology, risk factors, diagnosis and therapy can add insight regarding the comprehensive management of steroid-induced DM
Life Trajectories of the Yubi Zhiguolun: From Qing Dynasty to British Exhibitory Space
Authors: Xiao Si
Published: May 2023

Since the later stage of the Qing Dynasty, many imperial objects have been moved to Europe due to a series of Sino-European wars. Perceived as having less material value, Qing imperial books, manuscripts, and scrolls are studied less by contemporary scholars. The Yubi Zhiguolun (‘禦筆知過論’) is one example. The Qianlong Emperor wrote this introspective essay at the age of 71 (1781). Subsequently, it was reproduced as a scroll, carved in jade, presented in paper copies, and shared as a lacquered album. The lacquer album was originally stored in the Yuanmingyuan. It was brought to Europe after the Second Opium War. It is currently preserved in the British Library. To understand the Zhiguolun’s history, the author uses the concept of the ‘social life of things’. Travelling over time and space, its aesthetic value, social meaning, and emotional efficacy changed, corresponding to changes in its social relations. Here, the framework of the ‘social life of things’ will be mobilized to follow the Zhiguolun’s life trajectories over three phases: an indigenous life in the Qing context; the moment of rupture, as it departs from China; and its subsequent life in Europe.
Volunteering for Wellbeing: Improving Access and Social Inclusion by Increasing the Diversity of Museum Volunteer Training for Public-facing Roles
Authors: Thomson Linda , Elsden Esme , Chatterjee Helen
Published: May 2023

This article reports outcomes from a 15-month (2018-19) study led by UCL on behalf of the Culture, Health and Wellbeing Alliance in partnership with three London museums of differing sizes with natural or local history collections. The study aimed to address mental health inequalities by diversifying volunteer populations through reforming recruitment procedures to overcome perceived barriers, and enriching training programmes to improve wellbeing. A mixed methods approach was used to assess wellbeing and mechanisms by which key benefits were derived, such as social interaction and forming connections. The article considers how increasing the diversity of volunteer training in museums can improve wellbeing, widen access and promote social inclusion. Policy and practice implications are discussed in relation to embedding wellbeing training strategies into heritage organizations.
'Together We Curate': Cultural Participation and Collective Curating
Authors: Nikonanou Niki , Misirloglou Thouli
Published: May 2023

In the frame of the museums’ reflexive and participatory turn and given that curation has rarely been used as an inclusive practice, the co-curating program 'Together We Curate', initiated by the MOMus-Experimental Center for the Arts (Thessaloniki, Greece) after the first lockdown of the covid-19 pandemic, has served as an attempt to break with established theory and practice. The paper discusses the participatory experience of a co-curating exhibition and critically examines if and how such an approach enables curating to become an inclusive practice.

Persistence and dissipation properties of dichlorvos and profenofos in/on mulberry leaves were studied. Dichlorvos (76 WSC) and profenophos (50 EC) were sprayed at recommended dose (2 mL/L) and double the dose (4 mL/L) and leaf samples were drawn at different intervals in triplicate and residues derived from the QuEChERS method were quantified on gas chromatography-electron capture detector (GC-ECD). The initial deposits of dichlorvos and profenofos were between 1.18 to 2.79 and 2.19 to 4.72 μg g-1 in the recommended and double the dose, respectively. Dichlorvos dissipated to 0.03 (98.8%) and 0.031 μg g-1 (97.38%) in recommended and double the doses, respectively three days after spray. Residues of profenofos dissipated to the extent of 95.8% and 94.30%, respectively, at recommended and double doses in 15 days. Dissipation pattern followed first order kinetics for both the insecticides with half life periods of 0.52 and 4.29 days for dichlorvos and profenophos, respectively. Present studies suggest that the use of dichlorvos and profenofos at the recommended doses does not pose any hazard to silkworm, if waiting periods of 2.89 and 32 days respectively,were observed before harvesting mulberry leaves to feed silkworms.

Linguagem, educação e decolonialidade: caminhos para pensar a ecologia dos saberes
Authors: Paulino Vicente
Published: May 2023

O humano é feito pela linguagem e com ela produz sentidos das coisas. O humano é verdadeiramente humano pela educação, pois sem a educação o humano não pode transformar-se e transformar o mundo. Portanto, a linguagem, a educação e decolonialidade são, de alguma forma, identificadas como caminhos para pensar na ecologia dos saberes que se caracterizam pela presença de múltiplos arquivos do passado. Especialmente, no que diz respeito ao mundo da educação, entende-se pela classificação de múltiplos mundos educativos. Os fenômenos culturais, literários e linguísticos oferecem acesso privilegiado para entender a linguagem, a educação e a decolonialidade.

Results of a prospective strategy for focused Minimally Invasive Parathyroidectomy (MIP)
Authors: Rosyli Reveron-Thornton , Jeffrey Norton
Published: May 2023

Neck exploration for primary HPT is the standard operation in which 4 parathyroid glands are identified and one abnormal parathyroid gland is removed. This is recommended for all patients with primary HPT. We hypothesized that most patients with primary HPT have a single abnormal parathyroid gland (adenoma) and parathyroid imaging studies will identify it and support a focused minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP). This can be combined with ioPTH monitoring making bilateral exploration unnecessary. This paper reports a 93.4% success rate in 249 consecutive prospective patients with primary HPT over a 15-year period with a short operating time and few complications. The findings suggest that this alternate surgical MIP approach should be the procedure of choice for HPT patients.

Implications of the UNESCO’ Historic Urban Landscape Approach to ‘Eupchi’ Landscape in Korea - Case of Gongju Eupchi in Joseon Dynasty -
Authors:   The Association Of Korean Cultural And Historical Geographers, Jeon Jong Han
Published: May 2023

Today, the ‘landscape’ concept of geography is an important part of the UNESCO’s approach to evaluating, inscribing, and managing World Heritages. Recently the UNESCO’s ‘Historic Urban Landscape (HUL)’ approach contributes to a comprehensive coverage by maintaining a holistic view based on the landscape concept of geography, relating the historic districts within the city to ecological, social, and cultural dimensions, daily life of citizens, promotion of current happiness, and sustainable development. The UNESCO’s HUL approach should be taken seriously when our designing plans for re-recognition and management of the heritage values of eupchi (county seat) landscapes of the Joseon Dynasty scattered throughout the Korean Peninsula today. From this point of view, the author took Gongju Eupchi as a case, drew values as the traditional cityscape of Korea, reflected on the existing understanding of the Eupchi landscape from academic, civil society, and institutional aspects, and presented future development tasks.
