Authors: Kumar Dr Vivek , Saikat Saha  , Goutam Kumar  , Dibyakar Chhetri  , Rumi Maitra  , Rajib Prasad
Published: July 2024

There are times when physical evidence found at post-mortem examination does not uncover the cause and mode of death. This is known as equivocal death. The psychological autopsy is an attempt to reconstruct the decedent’s life to get a better understanding of his cause of death. It is used to determine the victim’s psychological intent, using interviews and examination of documents to reconstruct the behaviour, personality, lifestyle, habits and history of the victim prior to death. Psychological autopsy helps as an investigative instrument which requires an application of abilities, experience, and training to assess a variety of factors including the behaviour, thoughts, feelings, and relationships of an individual who is deceased. There may be situations that the family members of the deceased does not want to reveal thefacts about his death. Hence the counselling and interviews of family members, friends, and relatives has to be done with empathy. So the interviewer has to be flexible. The interviewer should establish mutual respect and confidence, with the informant, and ensure confidentiality and anonymity, and also obtain an informed consent before the interview. Hence one should be qualified and skilled to conduct the interview. False information also can be given due to lack of memory or it may be intentional. Suicide note, Personal documents, Medical records, school records, military records, employment records, should be carefully analysed. With the above mentioned information, a psychological autopsy report is produced, the final conclusion depends on the accuracy of the data collected from the interviews, examination of relevant documents and other materials. Therefore the interviewee’s probabilities and limitation to science should be noted. Thus the final judgement as to the mode of death is based upon a review of all the known facts and circumstances; including the coroner’s report, forensic medical report, police reports, crime scene analyst reports, and the psychological reconstruction ,so that people may learn from the tragedy and, hopefully, be cautious and reduce the chances of similar occurrence in future. Psychological autopsy is most often used in cases of suspected suicide or homicide in an attempt to reconstruct the personal life and character of the deceased, to uncover hidden facts that may help to give family members peace of mind and also plays a role in revealing the manner of death.

Authors: Sarella Prasanth Kumar  , Akhila K  , Aswan Gaddala  , Shyam Sunder Junapudi
Published: July 2024

Background: Pesticide poisoning kills hundreds of thousands of people in the Asia Pacific region each year. The majority are from deliberate self-poisoning with organophosphorus pesticides (OP),paraquat etc. It is a critical health problem in rural areas, where hazardous pesticides are easily available. Very few studies were present regarding this in India and research on anti-dotes to commonly available pesticides is very minimal. According to WHO report, it is the 2nd most common cause of death among people aged 15-29 years.
Methodology: An observational study was conducted to study suicidal poisoning cases from Jan-June 2022 in a retrospective record-based manner.Qualitative variables were represented with graphs and tables. Quantitative variables were represented with mean and Standard deviation. Multinomial logistic regression was done to test the significance of poisoning agents with survival status. Nagelkerke R-squared mean regression model was considered in the analysis. p-value less than 0.05 was considered significant.
Results: The incidence of suicidal poisoning was 696(~0.46%) during the study period. The mean age of the study population is 32.5±12.3 years. Majority of the cases were Organophosphorus compounds and paraquat comprising a total of about 26.11%. Fatality rate was 17.4% Multinomial logistic regression of various poisoning agents showed high significance of mortality OP poisoning(p=0.03), Paraquat poisoning (p<0.001) and Herbicides(p=0.02).
Conclusion: Young populations were more prone to commit suicide suggesting increased recognition of the need for a coordinated response involving public health officials and psychiatric specialists to conduct mental health awareness camps and to provide counselling. Strengthening of translational research to develop anti-dotes for commonly available pesticides.

Published: July 2024

Background: Poisoning is acknowledged as a significant contributing factor to deaths in most of the low-income and middle income countries. Even though poisoning is regarded as a global burden, different parts of the world may experience different types of poisoning. For the purpose of creating and implementing appropriate policies to address this acknowledged public health issue, it is imperative to understand the epidemiology of poisoning cases in a given area.
Material & Method: The present study was a retrospective  study of poisoning deaths that were brought for medico-legal autopsy at a tertiary care facility in southern Haryana between January 2018 and December 2023. A total of 264 medico-legal autopsies for poisoning deaths were performed during the study period. Relevant information and subjective data like age, gender, marital status and occupation have been collected from medico-legal autopsy register from January 2018 to December 2013.
Results: It was observed that out of 264 cases female outnumbered male in ratio 1.3:1. Majority of the victims belonged to the second and third decade of life. Married couples were more vulnerable and the majority of the victims (64.77%) had accidentally consumed poison.
Conclusion: The epidemiology of poisoning is highlighted in the study, which shows that poisoning fatalities accounted for almost 30% of total autopsies. Since the region is heavily dependent on agriculture, to control deaths caused by poisoning awareness programs should be implemented vigorously to educate and nurture the character of young people.

Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is one of the main causes of respiratory diseases and mortality among premature newborns. It requires intensive medical care, including mechanical ventilation and surfactant therapy. Timely detection and treatment of RDS are vital to prevent severe complications and improve outcomes in newborns. The study of genetic mutations, such as SFTPB, SFTPC, and ABCA3, which affect the production and function of surfactant, contributes to a deeper understanding of the pathophysiology of RDS and the development of targeted therapies. Treating newborns with RDS requires significant resources, including prolonged stays in neonatal intensive care units, increasing healthcare costs. Understanding genetic predisposition and individual risks for developing RDS allows for personalized approaches to treatment and prevention, improving the quality of medical care. Identifying risk factors such as cesarean section, multiple pregnancies, and maternal diseases helps develop preventive strategies to reduce RDS incidence. Research is ongoing to improve existing treatment methods and develop new therapeutic strategies, such as stem cell and gene therapy, to enhance outcomes in patients with RDS.

Kerupuk merupakan makanan ringan yang umumnya dimakan sebagai pendamping makanan pokok. Pemanfaatan ikan lele dumbo dalam fortifikasi kerupuk dapat menjadi salah satu cara diversifikasi produk perikanan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui pengaruh penambahan ikan lele dumbo terhadap karakteristik kimia (kadar air, kadar abu dan kadar protein), fisik (daya kembang kerupuk) dan mutu organoleptik (warna, rasa dan tekstur), serta menetapkan formulasi kerupuk terbaik berdasarkan penerimaan konsumen. Rancangan percobaan yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) satu faktor dengan penambahan lele dumbo 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%. Data yang diperoleh kemudian dilakukan uji ANOVA, jika terdapat beda nyata dilanjutkan dengan Uji Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) pada taraf signifikansi 5%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa semakin tinggi substitusi lele dumbo secara nyata (α = 0,05) mampu meningkatkan kadar air, kadar abu dan kadar protein serta menurunkan daya kembang kerupuk. Hasil uji organoleptik dengan mutu hedonik menunjukkan penambahan ikan lele dumbo secara nyata (α = 0,05) menghasilkan warna yang semakin coklat, rasa ikan yang semakin kuat, dan tekstur kerupuk yang semakin tidak renyah. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian metode Zeleny, penambahan ikan lele dumbo 30% pada kerupuk ikan merupakan perlakuan terbaik yang dihasilkan pada penelitian ini.

Social Media and Political Propaganda: A double-edged Sword for Democratic Consolidation in Nigeria
Authors: Osimen Goddy Uwa , Adeyefa Christianah Ronke
Published: July 2024

Social media serves as a powerful tool for politicians to engage with voters and drive the conversation in their favor. Still, the authenticity and accuracy of online information can be questionable as there are currently no mechanisms in place to regulate or sanction the spread of false or misleading information on social media, making it even more challenging to combat the proliferation of political propaganda. Also, the prevalent availability and lack of mechanisms to checkmate it allows individuals and political actors to spread misleading information which causes a significant problem. Therefore, the trust of this paper was to examine the role of social media platforms specifically Facebook and Twitter, as well as the gaps and challenges in identifying the dissemination and amplification of political propaganda in Nigeria. The study utilized qualitative research and was analyzed descriptively. The study revealed that Social media promotes political propaganda and manipulates the perception of the electorate which changes the outcome of elections.  Ultimately, the paper argues that a comprehensive approach is needed to regulate the spread of political propaganda on social media platforms in Nigeria, which include; the creation of digital literacy programs that focuses on media literacy and online etiquette, deeper cooperation between the Nigerian government and social media platforms to curb the spread of political propaganda, the establishment of legal frameworks to punish offenders, mitigating political propaganda are some of the recommendations highlighted in this study.

Следовательно, понимание схемы распределения и аллельного разнообразия генов яровизации и фотопериода важно в любой программе селекции пшеницы и тритикале. В данном исследовании проведен скрининг 86 сортов яровой тритикале по генам яровизации (Vrn-A1, Vrn-B1 и Vrn-B3) и чувствительности к фотопериоду (Ppd-B1)  с использованием диагностических молекулярных маркеров. Процент встречаемости в коллекции яровой тритикале доминантной аллели Vrn-A1 составил - 50%, а Vrn-B1 - 53,4%. Доминантная аллель гена Vrn-B3 не обнаружена, все образцы несли рецессивную аллель. Выделены 25 сортов коллекции, которые имеют доминантные аллели двух локусов Vrn-A1Vrn-B1. Идентификация коллекции яровой тритикале по гену Ppd-B1 показала, что все образцы несут чувствительный к фотопериоду рецессивный аллель Ppd-B1b. Установлено, что в условиях юго-востока Казахстана образцы несущие доминантную аллель Vrn-В1 имели более высокую скорость развития. Выделены из коллекции 3 образца (Cheetah, Whale, Fahad 8-2*2// PTP U 3878) с высокой скоростью развития как источники скороспелости. Информация по аллельной вариации генов яровизации и фотопериода в зародышевой плазме яровой тритикале будет способствовать планированию и внедрению молекулярных маркеров в программах селекции тритикале. Эта информация может быть полезна для разработки элитных сортов тритикале, несущих подходящие аллели генов яровизации и фотопериода с более высоким потенциалом урожайности зерна и лучшим качеством, подходящими для широкого диапазона выращиваний.

Погодные аномалии последних лет показывают, что в Казахстане повышению устойчивости растений к температурным стрессам следует уделять особое внимание. В статье приведены сведения об изменениях погодно-климатических условий в озимосеющих регионах Казахстана. В Алматинской области за 2021-2023 годы отмечено повышение температуры воздуха во время вегетационного периода на 1,73-2,60 °С по сравнению с среднемноголетними данными. В регионе в течение вегетации растений наблюдается уменьшение количества осадков и выпадение дождей отличается неравномерностью. Описаны основные показатели засухоустойчивости у современных сортов озимой пшеницы и методы их изучения. На основе литературных данных и собственных исследований установлено влияние параметров флагового листа (длина, ширина, площадь), скручивания листьев во время засухи, замедление старения растений «Stay-green», опущенности и воскового налета растений на засухоустойчивость озимой пшеницы. Оценены сорта озимой пшеницы по показателям продуктивности в условиях природной засухи. Отмечено, что в связи с потеплением климата в регионе необходимо продолжить исследования засухоустойчивости озимой пшеницы по признакам кустистость, вегетационный период, высота растений, длина верхнего междоузлия стебля, площадь флагового листа, скручивание листьев, восковой налет, а также по NDVI индексу растений во время засухи.

Scientific research in the field of automated sign language translation represents a crucial stage in the development of technologies supporting the hearing-impaired and deaf communities. This article presents a comprehensive approach to addressing semantic and technical challenges associated with the uniqueness of sign language. The research goal is to create an innovative system that combines semantic analysis, sign synthesis, and facial mimicry for the most accurate conveyance of emotional context. The study focuses on the unique features of the Kazakh language and cultural contexts that influence sign communication. The research centers on the development of a semantic system capable of adequately interpreting metaphors, idioms, and classifier predicates of sign language. The three-dimensional nature of signs is analyzed, and a solution to the formal description problem is proposed. The article introduces a database, analysis algorithm, and a prototype 3D avatar capable of translating textual data into sign language. Special attention is given to the processing of idioms and variability in expressing emotions in sign language. Utilizing machine learning principles and computational linguistics algorithms, the authors present an integrated approach to sign language translation, considering linguistic, cultural, and emotional aspects. The proposed algorithms and formulas facilitate effective interaction between textual information and sign expression. The research results not only provide an overview of current challenges in automated sign language translation but also offer practical approaches to addressing them. The developed approach could be a key step towards creating more efficient communication systems for the hearing-impaired and deaf.

This paper explores the essential dynamics of social networks, specifically examining the phenomenon of information confrontation among users. The goal of the research is the development of a novel simulation methodology that integrates game-theoretic principles with probabilistic techniques to provide a robust model for these interactions. The theoretical framework of the study is founded on the conceptualization of user conflicts as a strategic game between two players. The primary objective for each player in this game is to exert influence and control over as many nodes within the network as possible. To capture the essence of these strategic interactions, we have introduced an innovative algorithm that facilitates dynamic strategy adaptation. This algorithm is pivotal in allowing players to modify their decision-making processes in real-time, based on the continually changing conditions of the network. For practical implementation and validation of the methodology, we used the Facebook Researcher open dataset, with a particular focus on its Kazakhstani segment. This dataset provides a rich source of empirical data, reflecting diverse user interactions and network configurations, which are essential for testing the model. This approach stands out by offering significant improvements in computational efficiency and resource management. By dynamically tracking and updating the network's status, the proposed method reduces the computational resources required, thereby enhancing the scalability of the simulation. In comparing our methodology with other existing models in the field, it becomes evident that it not only matches but in several respects surpasses these methodologies in terms of flexibility. This study makes substantial contributions to the field of social network analysis by providing a sophisticated tool that can be effectively employed to navigate and analyze the complexities of information confrontation in digital social spaces.

One of the most important issues in the design of cryptographic algorithms is studying their cryptographic strength. Among the factors determining the reliability of cryptographic algorithms, a good pseudorandom sequence generator, which is used for key generation, holds particular significance. The main goal of this work is to verify the normal distribution of pseudorandom sequences obtained using the generation algorithm and demonstrate that there is no mutual statistical correlation between the values of the resulting sequence. If these requirements are met, we will consider such a generator reliable. This article describes the pseudorandom sequence generation algorithm and outlines the steps for each operation involved in this algorithm. To verify the properties of the pseudorandom sequence generated by the proposed algorithm, it was programmatically implemented in the Microsoft Visual C++ integrated development environment. To assess the statistical security of the pseudorandom sequence generation algorithm, 1000 files with a block length of 10000 bits and an initial data length of 256 bits were selected. Statistical analysis was conducted using tests by D. Knuth and NIST. As shown in the works of researchers, the pseudorandom sequence generation algorithm, verified by these tests, can be considered among the reliable algorithms. The results of each graphical test by D. Knuth are presented separately. The graphical tests were evaluated using values obtained from each test, while the chi-squared criterion with degrees of freedom  was used to analyze the evaluation tests. The success or failure of the test was determined using a program developed by the Information Security Laboratory. Analysis of the data from the D. Knuth tests showed good results. In the NIST tests, the P-value for the selected sequence was calculated, and corresponding evaluations were made. The output data obtained from the NIST tests also showed very good results. The proposed pseudorandom sequence generation algorithm allows generating and selecting a high-quality pseudorandom sequence of a specified length for use in the field of information security.
