Authors: Pamungkas Rezki Yoga , Akmal Nashruddin , Alqadri Suriya
Published: December 2021

Produk deterjen cuci Qiaobi merupakan merek deterjen pakaian yang mempromosikan produknya melalui beragam macam media, salah satunya media televisi. Tetapi, setelah beberapa bulan dipromosikan melalui media televisi, iklan ini dihapus oleh pemerintah Cina karena mengandung unsur rasis yang melibatkan ras kulit hitam. Artikel ini menggunakan teori semiotika dari Roland Barthes karena teorinya dapat mengungkap sistem dan aturan yang memungkinkan tanda memiliki makna. Selain itu juga dapat membagiisi makna teks dan menjangkau dengan waana yang lebih luas. Ras kulit hitam mendapatkan perlakuan berbeda dari masyarakat karena dipengaruhi oleh ideologi white supremacy, di mana kulit putih dipandang lebih superior dan unggul, dibandingkan kulit hitam yang dianggap inferior dan tidak unggul. Hal ini membuat sebuah kesimpulan kalau masyarakat lebih menyukai dan mengidolakan kulit putih dibandingkan kulit hitam, hal ini dipengaruhi oleh ideologi white supremacy, di mana kulit putih dipandang lebih superior dan unggul, dibandingkan kulit hitam yang dianggap inferior dan tidak unggul.

Authors: Rouf Abdul , Nazir Fouzia , Masoodi Muneer Ahmad
Published: December 2021

COVID-19 Pandemic has severely affected the health care delivery system, economic and social progress since its inception. Although COVID-19 vaccines have given, a new hope but Vaccine hesitancy has been recognized as a serious public health problem that needs extensive research among different population groups. This study was aimed to assess awareness, attitude and practice towards COVID-19 vaccination and its association with Sociodemographicvariables among social media users in Jammu and Kashmir, India.

The Department of Community Medicine, Government Medical College, Anantnag conducted this cross-sectional study in June 2021, among social media users, 18 and above years of age, using online questionnaire through Google Forms. The questionnaire comprised of four segments, sociodemographic details, awareness, attitude, and practice regarding COVID-19 vaccination, ten questions from each segment.

In this study, although the calculated sample size was 423, a total of 425 respondents were included. The mean scores of awareness, regarding COVID-19 disease and its vaccination, was 3.68 ± 0.44, with overall awareness was 73.6%, positive attitude 3.53 ± 0.41, with an overall positive attitude of 70.6%, and good practice towards adopting COVID-19 appropriate behaviour and vaccination was 3.43 + 0.71 with an overall good practice of 68.6% respectively. Participants with higher awareness regarding COVID-19 disease and its vaccination were 9.1 times (95% C.I = 5.16-14.32) more likely to have a positive attitude towards using COVID-19 appropriate behaviour and its vaccination and 7.8 times (95% C.I = 4.62-13.83) adopting good practice than with the low level of awareness.

In Jammu and Kashmir, social media users are having good awareness toward COVID-19 disease and its vaccination. Awareness generation seems to be a good tool for bringing behavioural changes and this platform should be used to disseminate information regarding COVID-19 appropriate behaviour and its vaccination.
Clear aligner therepy – A review
Authors: Shetty Sanjana , Shaikh Naazia
Published: December 2021

Aesthetics is a major factor in Orthodontic treatment and it is a primary concern among patients seeking orthodontic treatment. To meet the growing aesthetic desire for an alternative to traditional braces, researchers have created a variety of alternatives, including ceramic or composite braces, lingual orthodontics, and transparent aligners. Clear aligner therapy is a treatment that consists of a set of clear dental appliances that are custom-made to fit the contour of a patient's teeth. Clear Aligners are an alternative to traditional braces that are used to guide teeth into appropriate alignment. Clear aligners, like braces, utilise a progressive force to regulate tooth movement, but without the need of metal wires or brackets.

Authors: Singhal Meenakshi , Shetty Devi Charan , Juneja Saurabh , Jain Anshi , Gulati Nikita
Published: December 2021

Compound odontoma is considered to be a developmental anomalies of the dental tissues or a hamartomatous lesion rather than a true odontogenic tumour. It has an unknown etiology. Odontomas are further subdivided into compound and complex types depending on the extent of morpho-differentiation or on the resemblance to normal teeth. Since, these lesions are asymptomatic, they are usually detected in routine radiographs only. Early diagnosis, prompt clinical decision making followed by a proper treatment at the right time, results in a favorable prognosis. The present report describes a large atypical radiopaque mass located in the ramus of mandible. After the lesion was surgically removed under local anesthesia, histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of compound odontoma. The results achieved indicate that the early diagnosis of odontomas allows the adoption of a less complex and expensive treatment and ensures better prognosis.
Las memorias de Dios. Ateísmo, crisis y conversión de Giovanni Pappini (1907-1921))
Authors:   Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha, Mancebo Roca Juan Agustín
Published: December 2021

En su Biblioteca Personal, Jorge Luis Borges definió a Giovanni Papini (1881-1956) como «historiador de la literatura y poeta, pragmatista y romántico, ateo y después teólogo. No sabemos cuál es su cara, porque fueron muchas sus máscaras» (1997: 53). El escritor argentino señalaba la complejidad intelectual del toscano que adquirió diversos roles que se fueron metamorfoseando en las distintas etapas creativas y personales por las que transitó. Su imagen canónica lo identifica como uno de los autores cristianos esenciales del siglo XX a través de obras como Lettere agli uomini del Papa Celestino IV (1926), Il Diavolo (1953) o Giudizio Universale (1956).

Análisis filosófico sobre la concepción neurocientífica de los rasgos autistas: aportes desde el normativismo vital de Georges Canguilhem
Authors: Castañares Clara , Bagatolli Luis , Folguera Guillermo
Published: December 2021

A partir de la obra Lo normal y lo patológico de Georges Canguilhem, publicada en 1943, se explora cómo las neurociencias definen y legitiman, en la actualidad, la existencia de los rasgos autistas como expresión subclínica de autismo. La hipótesis general del presente trabajo es que en la bibliografía especializada de este ámbito parecen consolidarse diferentes supuestos asumidos en el marco de una perspectiva naturalista de la salud. Tales supuestos refieren a que los comportamientos deben ser explicados estrictamente en términos biológicos, que existe un parámetro de normalidad de carácter objetivo y estadístico, y que las conductas de los individuos pueden ser analizadas separadamente del contexto. Retomando algunos aspectos de la propuesta de Canguilhem sobre salud, normalidad y normatividad, se analiza de qué manera las neurociencias otorgan una cualidad cuasi-patológica a una noción descriptiva como la de rasgos autistas. A nuestro entender, este proceso involucra la asunción apriorística y acrítica de supuestos que impiden poner en discusión aspectos elementales asociados a la naturaleza del autismo y que conducen a patologizar la diferencia entre personas.
Identity, Religion and Difference in the Borderland District of Poonch, Jammu and Kashmir
Authors: Sharma Malvika
Published: December 2021

This article (part of a special section on South Asian border studies) is an exploration of a multi-religious ethnic group in the borderland district of Poonch in Jammu and Kashmir, India. The work focuses on the Pahari ethnicity and looks at how prominent religious identities within this group have been continuously aligning themselves along religious lines in the post-partition era. Partition of the Indian subcontinent in 1947 acted as a major disruption in the construction of identities. The evolution of national and ethnic identities went hand in hand with the evolution of religious identities, with the latter being more pronounced than the former. Such a fixation along religious lines in the socio-cultural and political sphere led to changes in everyday inter-community relations. Through oral histories and other accounts, this ethnography understands the new set of interactions that emerged in Poonch which have been shaping identities, while also analysing identity construction and its impact on the social organisation of space and neighbourhoods in general in the post-partition era.

In the quest towards achieving the Zero hunger agenda of the sustainable development goals by 2030, the utilization of organic fertilizers, for soil amendment purposes, has been posited as a feasible alternative for overcoming the negative impacts of inorganic fertilizers. Despite its manifold benefits, the use of untreated and improperly treated organic materials in agricultural production is however capable of introducing toxic metals in the soil-plant systems causing health and agro-environmental impacts. In this study, available organic fertilizers use by Nigerian farmers were selected and analyzed for nutrient values and most importantly, heavy metal contamination. The degree of contamination in each sample was modeled using fuzzy comprehensive assessment. The manure samples possessed optimum nutritional values; the nitrogen, phosphate, and potash contents ranged from 0.91 – 7.44, 0.06 – 1.61, 0.14 – 0.58% respectively. The fuzzy algorithm results categorized all the organic fertilizers as pristine, with a membership degree ranging from 35 to 99%. However, an excessive level of toxic contamination, with a membership function between 3 to 33% was observed. The major contaminants were identified as Zn, Cr, and Cd with an individual contribution of 16, 29, and 33% respectively. Adequate remediation techniques and good management practices that reduce the concentration of heavy metals in the organic fertilizers especially that of Zn, Cr, and Cd, should therefore be promoted among the producers and users of these soil improvers in Nigeria.
The institution of electronic appeals and its role in improving information and communication culture
Authors:   Saratov State University, Komkova Galina N. , Tyumeneva Nataliya V. ,   Saratov State University
Published: December 2021

Introduction. Currently, most of the public services are provided in a digital format, which triggers the activization of the “feedback” channel between authorities and organizations performing public functions and consumers of services. Functionally, this task can be solved with the help of the institution of electronic appeals. Theoretical analysis. It is noted that qualitative changes in the social setting in connection with the digitalization of the economy have led to a change in the relationship between the state and the individual. The management paradigm is built in accordance with the interests of the subject, i.e. the consumer of public services for the population, most of which are provided to the subject in the electronic form with their subsequent evaluation through the institution of electronic appeals. Empirical analysis. The authors analyze the legislation regulating the procedure for consideration of citizens’ appeals, including written ones, submitted electronically. The authors formulate the definition of the concept of “electronic appeals” and carry out the classification of electronic appeals. The researchers also characterize the legal regimes of filing and consideration of electronic appeals through the official websites of public bodies and organizations performing public functions, as well as through federal official (state) websites specially designed for citizens to submit appeals in the form of an electronic document. Results. In conclusion, the authors highlight the important role of the institution of electronic appeals in digital transformation and the increasing level of information and communication culture.
The positive legal uncertainty as a technical and legal method of exposition of law
Authors:   Saratov State Law Academy, Arkhipova Ekaterina Yu.
Published: December 2021

Introduction. In modern Russian society with high rates of development of market relations, digitalization of the main spheres of life, popularization of the ideas of self-organization and self-regulation, legal uncertainty acts as a bipolar phenomenon, which is not only a consequence of law-making errors, but an effective technical and legal way of presenting regulations. Theoretical analysis. The historical analysis of the formation and development of ideas of certainty and uncertainty in jurisprudence showed that these categories are considered as universal phenomena characteristic of any matter. It was established that absolute certainty is unattainable and not always in demand, while legal uncertainty is inherent in the very nature of law. Еmpirical analysis. It was revealed that the need to ensure mobility and flexibility of legal regulation imposes the task of a reasonable use of legal uncertainty as a technical and legal way of presenting law on the law-making subject, which is reflected in the current legislation. Results. Legal uncertainty is an objective and inevitable phenomenon, and the total regulation of social relations is not always justified. The law is being improved on the basis of the principle of transition from the casuistic to the abstract, which proves its universality.
Constitutional principles of the creation of federal territories in Russia
Authors:   Saratov State University, Starikov Sergey S.
Published: December 2021

Introduction. During the constitutional reform of 2020, part 1 of Article 67 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation was supplemented with a provision on the possibility of creating federal territories. In this regard, questions need to be resolved about how the constitutional novel should relate to the principles of federalism established by the Constitution of the Russian Federation, and what the principles for the creation of federal territories in Russia are. Theoretical analysis. The creation of federal territories in the Russian Federation should take place subject to strict compliance with the principle of state integrity, the principle of equality and self-determination of the peoples of Russia; the principle of unity of the public power system; the principle of priority of individual rights and freedoms, their recognition, observance and protection by the state; the principle of compliance with the goals of the formation of federal territories with the strategic interests of the Russian Federation. Empirical analysis. It is revealed that the current version of Part 1 of Article 67 of the Constitution, firstly, establishes the possibility of creating federal territories as a new type of public legal territory, secondly, provides for a special organization of public power in these territories, different from the generally accepted organization operating on the territory of the subjects of the Russian Federation, and, thirdly, defines the constitutional and legal mechanism for their creation: the adoption of a federal law. This norm does not specify the types of federal territories and the possible goals of their creation. These issues are fully attributed to the discretionary powers of the Russian Parliament. Results. Based on the analysis of the scientific literature devoted to the problems of federal territories in Russia and abroad, and the legislation of the Russian Federation, the definition can be formulated: federal territory is a public legal entity that has a special constitutional and legal status determined by national strategic significance, created in accordance with a regulatory act providing for direct or indirect management of it by the federal government, defining the specifics of the exercise of public power in accordance with the goals of creation, additional guarantees and restrictions on the rights and freedoms of citizens.

Authors: Tonetti Juliana , Adami Rose Maria
Published: December 2021

O crescimento da população brasileira na última década incentivou maior consumo de água tratada para as atividades sociais, econômicas e culturais. Porém, a oferta de água em quantidade e qualidade inadequada nos mananciais faz com que ocorram conflitos entre os diversos consumidores. Diante disso, a presente pesquisa objetivou diagnosticar a demanda dos principais consumos da água captada pela empresa de abastecimento do município de Pedras Grandes, Sul de Santa Catarina e de possíveis conflitos existentes entre seus consumidores. A metodologia utilizada foi baseada nas pesquisas exploratória, apoiadas em abordagens quali-quantitativa, por meio de pesquisas bibliográfica, documental e entrevistas. Os resultados da pesquisa mostraram que a empresa de abastecimento do município capta 24m3/h de água em três nascentes localizadas na comunidade rural de Rio Coral. Essa água é tratada e distribuída para 494 ligações cadastradas e 23 não cadastradas destinadas ao consumo residencial, comercial e industrial. Em função da grande quantidade de água consumida pelas ligações não cadastradas, percebe-se que há um conflito latente no consumo da água da empresa de abastecimento, mas não entre os consumidores. Essa realidade solicita medidas de gestão da demanda e consumo da água.

Authors: KERGET Ferhan , KERGET Buğra , İBA YILMAZ Sibel
Published: December 2021

Aim: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a zoonotic infection characterized by fever and hemorrhage that is endemic to northeastern Turkey. This study aimed to examine the association between procalcitonin and venous blood gas parameters and clinical course and prognosis in patients with CCHF. Material and Methods: A total of 96 CCHF patients who were followed up in the infectious diseases department between March 2020 and September 2020 were included in the study. The patients’ routine laboratory tests, serum procalcitonin, and results of venous blood gas analysis were analyzed retrospectively. Results: There were statistically significant differences in serum platelet, aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, creatinine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, potassium, C-reactive protein, sedimentation, D-dimer, activated partial thromboplastin time, ferritin, procalcitonin and lactate levels, and platelet/lymphocyte ratio among the patients with mild, moderate and severe disease (p=0.017 for potassium, p=0.004 for D-dimer, and p<0.001 for rest of others). In receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of serum lactate for the differentiation of patients with severe disease and those with mild/moderate disease, the area under curve was 0.802 and a cut-off value of 1.9 mmol/L had 77.8% sensitivity and 76.9% specificity. For serum procalcitonin, the area under curve was 0.892 and a cut-off value of 0.61 ng/mL had 83.3% sensitivity and 89.7% specificity. Conclusion: Serum procalcitonin and lactate level may be useful and easily obtained parameters to guide the evaluation of clinical severity and follow-up in patients with CCHF.
Role-Identity Dynamics in Care and Household Work: Strategies of Polish Workers in Naples, Italy
Authors: Kordasiewicz Anna
Published: December 2021

Migrant household work is a global phenomenon present across geographical contexts. Employing a household worker, especially a worker coming from another country, is a symbolically complex situation that requires interpretive work and negotiations of role-identities from interactional partners. There has been much debate about how to define the relationship between a domestic and/or care worker and her/his employer. It has been argued that the preferred definition by workers themselves is one that centers on work (Anderson 2000). In contrast, “fictive kinship” appears to be the employers’ almost universal strategy, which is usually portrayed in the literature as an exploitative practice (Romero 1992; Anderson 2000; Parreñas 2001; Constable 2003; Lan 2006; McDowell 2006).

In this paper, I offer a conceptual grid that consists of hierarchy/equality and distance/intimacy dimensions to examine complex relationships between domestic workers and employers, elaborated during the case study of Polish migrant domestic workers in Naples in 2004. Within the investigated site some elements of the traditional model of service culture have persisted. Migrant workers who come from a post-communist country, and who have rather egalitarian attitudes, have been confronted with these elements. The result has been a clash of definitions over the household worker’s role. Polish women developed two contrasting ways of experiencing and coping with it.

The strategies identified in the workers’ narratives are professionalization and personalization, and they refer respectively to emphasizing the professional and the personal dimensions in relations with the employer. They manifest themselves on the levels of action (as narrated by the workers) and narrative construction. The strategies on the level of action aim to shift the situation in a desired direction; the narrative strategies aim at framing the situation in a desired way within a narrative. The text underlines the diversity of migrant response and tentatively assesses the output of different strategies.
The River That Crosses an Ocean: Ifa/Orisha in the Global Spiritual Marketplace
Authors: Chirila Alexander
Published: December 2021

Ifa/Orisha, the traditional spiritual practice of the Yoruba nation, has entered the global spiritual marketplace. With thousands of worshipers on both sides of the Atlantic, practitioners and participants are engaging new arenas of discourse. In southwest Nigeria, storytellers are expressing the living religion through narratives that are relevant, adaptable, and meaningful in a plurality of contexts. From the often antagonistic relationship between Ifa/Orisha and the Abrahamic faiths, to the challenges posed by modernity and globalization, practitioners are renegotiating the identity of their religion in social and philosophical ways. Interpreting data gathered from interviews conducted in Nigeria and the United States, I present a qualitative analysis of how practitioners, participants, and non-practitioners interact with the fundamental premises underlying the matrix of symbols, rites, and narratives that represent traditional Yoruba religion.
The Postgraduate Supervisor Under Scrutiny: An Autoethnographic Inquiry
Authors: Lemmer Eleanor M.
Published: December 2021

Effective postgraduate supervision is a critical indicator of individual scholarship and institutional reputation. This paper uses autoethnography to scrutinize critical moments in the author’s enactment of the supervisory role over a lengthy career at a distance education university, where supervision takes place through face-to-face consultation, distance education, or a combination of both modes. Autoethnography, an innovative addition to the compendium of qualitative research methods, is gaining prominence as a means of examining the academic life through the personal and professional histories of individual academics. The author’s aim is to focus both inward on the vulnerable self as expressed in the role of academic supervisor and outward on the social and cultural aspects of this role as it is shaped within the context of the university. This has been done by constructing a text with a high degree of self-reflexivity, which combines evocative and literary elements with some explicit theorizing around generativity theory. Generativity is defined as an adult’s concern for and commitment to promoting the well-being of the next generation, in this case, the intellectual well-being of future cohorts of scholars. Against the framework of generativity, a series of autobiographical vignettes illustrate self-defining moments in the author’s development as supervisor. The role of memory and memory supports in producing an accurate story and measures taken to interact with the characters in the stories to enhance textual credibility are addressed. The vignettes illustrate the desire to conduct supervision as a generative act; cultural demand for generativity; the transmission of a personal aesthetic in supervision; the separation-individuation of the student; the redemption of generative commitment in the face of threats to generativity; and the perpetuation of the generative cycle. I conclude that autoethnography as method presents a useful route to both self-understanding and social understanding of the academic life, with particular reference to the role of postgraduate supervisor.
Reflexive Accounts: An Intersectional Approach to Exploring the Fluidity of Insider/Outsider Status and the Researcher’s Impact on Culturally Sensitive Post-Positivist Qualitative Research
Authors: Couture Amanda L. , Zaidi Arshia U. , Maticka-Tyndale Eleanor
Published: December 2021

Reflexivity and acknowledging the role of the researcher in the research is a well-established practice in post-positivist research. In this paper we use reflexivity to examine our personal experiences in conducting qualitative research. We use reflexivity to understand how our intersecting identities and resulting insider/outsider status may have influenced the data collection phase of a study regarding the culturally and religiously sensitive issue of male-female intimate relationships. Using an intersectional approach, we explore the fluidity of our insider/outsider statuses resulting from our multiple and intersecting identities such as ethnicity, religion, age, and sex. The multiple identities a researcher possesses can cause him/her to be perceived as an insider and outsider simultaneously, which can play a significant role in shaping the interactions between the interviewer and interviewee. We present reflexive accounts on how our identities may have affected the data collection process and participants’ comfort level when discussing sensitive issues, in this case sexuality. Overall, we seek to provide insight into the role of intersecting multiple identities and the resulting insider/outsider status in qualitative data collection when examining culturally and religiously sensitive issues from the perspective of the researchers.

La vie et l’oeuvre de l’auteur français Jean Genet ont toujours été une quête de l’oeuvre d’art absolue. Dans cette quête, trois figures majeures le guideront : le sculpteur Giacometti, le peintre Rembrandt et le funambule Abdellah Bentaga. À travers les oeuvres de ces artistes, Genet découvrira l’identité absolue. Qu’est-ce qui le mena vers cette découverte et quelles conséquences eurent-elles sur l’écrivain ? C’est ce rapport à l’Autre, analysé dans les quatre textes que Genet a écrit sur ces artistes, que nous nous proposons d’interroger dans cet article, notamment à travers le mythe de Narcisse.
​Effect of Dietary Inclusion of Cumin Seed (Cuminum cyminum) on Voluntary Feed Intake, Milk Yield, Milk Quality and Udder Health of Dairy Cows

Published: December 2021

Background: Plants containing essential oils can be a cost-effective means of improving efficiency of milk production and optimizing milk composition of dairy cows. Cuminum cyminum (green cumin) belongs to the Apiaceae family and is a well-known herbal medicine in Iran. The medicinal properties of cumin may have beneficial effects on milk production. However, very few studies have been reported whereby cumin has been fed to ruminants. Therefore, the present study is design to investigate the effect of cumin supplementation on milk yield, milk quality and udder health of lactating dairy cows. Methods: Twelve multiparous lactating cows at early stage of lactation was selected and randomly allotted to two equal groups (n=6) on the basis of milk yield. In addition to normal routine feeds and fodders, cows in groups T1 was fed cumin seed @ 50 g/d/head for 90 days. Fortnightly body weight was determined on the basis of body measurement of animals. All feed samples was analysed for proximate composition, Ca and P. The daily milk yield (kg/d) of individual cows was recorded by weighing. Milk samples were collected after complete milking and thorough mixing for determination of milk composition. Udder health was monitored by MCMT (modified california mastitis test), measuring milk pH and SCC (somatic cell count) at fortnightly intervals. Result: The results indicated that overall mean body weight, average DMI was statistically (P greater than 0.05) similar in both the groups. The average milk yield (kg) of animals was statically non significant (P greater than 0.05) but numerically 20.64% higher milk yield was observed in cumin seed supplemented group than control group. There was no effect of cumin supplementation on chemical composition (Fat, TS, SNF, Lactose and Protein) of milk in dairy cows. Overall mean milk pH and somatic cell count (SCC) in both the groups was statically similar but numerically lower in treatment group. The overall mean (%) of MCMT positive animals was 14.29 and 9.52 in T0 (Control) and T1 (Treatment) groups, respectively. From the results it can be deduced that the cumin seed (Cuminum cyminum) supplementation improves milk yield by 20.64%. However, it has no effect on composition of milk in dairy cows. Supplementation improved the udder health and found no effect on dry matter intake (DMI) in dairy cows.

Background: The present investigation was accepted to study the impact of liquid microbial inoculants on the quality parameters of forage cowpea (Vigna unguiculata). There upon, the field experiment was conducted during kharif 2018 at Punjab Agricultural University, Regional Research Station, Bathinda and at Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, Punjab respectively. Methods: The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with a total of eleven treatment combinations of liquid microbial inoculants (Burkholderia seminalis, Burkholderia sp. and Bradyrhizobium sp.) with 75% and 100% RDF and replicated thrice. The qualitative properties including crude protein (CP), neutral detergent fibre (NDF), acid detergent fibre (ADF), in-vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD), total soluble sugars and ash content were determined on the forage samples. Result: The results indicated that the treatment T10 (75% RDF + Burkholderia sp. + Burkholderia seminalis) has reduced ADF% and NDF% at both the locations. Forage with high ADF and NDF% content tends to have low digestibility, low ADF and NDF% is desirable. In addition, treatment T10 showed significantly (p less than 0.05) improved IVDMD (79.98%) and total sugars (15.82 mg/g) at Ludhiana and at Bathinda, T10 treatment significantly escalated crude protein (19.93%), total ash content (11.55%), total chlorophyll content (2.07 mg/g) and total sugars (15.80 mg/g).Further correlation studies showed highly significant positive correlation among ADF% and NDF% and there negative correlation with all other quality components at both the locations. Consequently, liquid microbial inoculants can play pertinent role in ameliorating fibre quality and interrelation between the various quality parameters proposed that forage with low ADF% and NDF% can be selected for simultaneous amelioration in different attributes of quality.

Drought disasters that occur in the Sampean watershed from time to time have increased, both the intensity of events and the area affected by drought. The general objective of this research is to develop an assessment method for the impact of climate chan ge on vulnerability to drought disasters based on atmospheric circulation data. The specific objectives of this study are to model rainfall predictions based on atmospheric circulation data, predict rainfall in various climate change scenarios (Intergovernm ental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC – AR5), and assess vulnerability to drought disasters using a meteorological approach. The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) is one way to analyze the drought index in an area which was developed previous researcher. The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) is designed to quantitatively determine the rainfall deficit with various time scales. The advantage of the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) is that it is enough to use monthly rainfall data to compare drou ght levels between regions even with different climate types. To facilitate the presentation of the data base on the identification of d rought susceptibility, we need a system that can assist in building, storing, managing and displaying geographically ref erenced information in the form of spatial mapping. This research facilitates monitoring of the area of drought-prone areas, predicts drought levels, prevents future drought disasters, and prepares plans for rebuilding drought-prone areas in the Sampean watershed.
Zillennialsi — generacja między generacjami
Authors: Widawska Adrianna
Published: December 2021

Wyróżnianie generacji jest niezwykle przydatne z punktu widzenia wielu branż. Ustalanie ram czasowych pokoleń i ich charakterystyki jest procesem trudnym i zawiłym, opierającym się na generalizacji, więc możliwa jest sytuacja, w której jakaś grupa osób poczuje się wykluczona lub niedopasowana. Takimi zbiorowościami są mikrogeneracje — przestrzenie komunikacyjne zrzeszające ludzi o podobnym stylu życia, ale nieutożsamiające się z większymi tworami, jak pokolenia. Najnowszym powstałym mikropokoleniem są zillennialsi: osoby znajdujące się pomiędzy pokoleniem Y a pokoleniem Z. Nie przeprowadzono jeszcze wielu badań skoncentrowanych wokół tej grupy i jej fenomenu, dlatego nie zaproponowano żadnej definicji, która mogłaby ją dookreślić.

Przedstawiona praca jest próbą scharakteryzowania mikrogeneracji amerykańskich zillennialsów, zaproponowania ram czasowych i czynników, które mogły doprowadzić do jej powstania. Z przeprowadzonych obserwacji wynika, że miejscem, w którego obrębie najczęściej się ujawniają, jest TikTok. Wobec tego wszystkie hipotezy zostały poparte tymi spostrzeżeniami. Technikami badawczymi, mającymi je potwierdzić lub odrzucić, były studium przypadku (facebookowej grupy Born Zillennial) oraz indywidualne wywiady pogłębione (w których wzięło udział pięcioro amerykańskich zillennialsów). Pytania zadawane respondentom oscylowały wokół następujących wymiarów: zwyczajów zakupowych, aktywizmu, nawiązywania relacji, podejścia do życia i zdrowia psychicznego oraz korzystania z technologii i mediów społecznościowych. Dodatkowo badani opowiadali o odczuciach względem poczucia przynależności do mikropokolenia i słuszności tworzenia podziałów generacyjnych.

Przeanalizowanie wyników pozwoliło na wysnucie ciekawych wniosków. Zillennialsi są pokoleniem „pomiędzy” i chociaż pozostają pod wpływem starszej oraz młodszej generacji, ich charakterystyka jest wyjątkowa. Wydarzeniami, które pomogły im się ukształtować, były przede wszystkim pandemia COVID-19 i wojna generacyjna na TikToku. Badania wykazały też istnienie pewnych zależności wewnątrz grupy, które nie pojawiły się u żadnej poprzedniej generacji. Z tego powodu zillennialsi są zdecydowanie jedną z najbardziej interesujących mikrogeneracji.

COVID-19 w Polsce — sekwencja epidemii według modelu SIR
Authors: Pastuszka Katarzyna , Pastuszka Sławomir
Published: December 2021

The paper aims to indicate the duration and intensity of the COVID-19 epidemic in Poland. To achieve this goal, the SIR interval model was used. The study was based on data from the Central Statistical Oﬃce, Hopkins University, and the Institute of Global Health at the University of Geneva. Based on the analysis results, it was established that the prognosis of the epidemic’s course largely depends on the size of the adopted R virus reproduction coeﬃcient. The higher the coeﬃcient, the more rapid the predicted course of the epidemic, the shorter the duration, and the greater the number of infected. And vice versa: the smaller the coeﬃcient, the milder its course, the longer its duration, and the smaller the number of infected. For this reason, it is important to accurately assess the intensity of the epidemic’s development measured by the virus renewal rate, depending on the nature and intensity of interpersonal contacts. Perhaps in a given country diﬀerent values of the coeﬃcient for urbanized and rural areas should be used.
Nutrición y medios de comunicación. ¿Podemos distinguir la información veraz de los mitos? Estudio piloto en población adultos y adolescentes
Authors: Lucas-Muñoz Andrea de , Martín Maria Angeles , Mesías Marta
Published: December 2021

Introducción: La alimentación y la nutrición son ámbitos de gran interés para la población debido a su relación con la salud, la estética y el medio ambiente. Este interés va ligado al aumento de información sobre estos temas en los medios de comunicación. Sin embargo, en muchos casos, la información transmitida no es al 100% veraz, conduciendo a falsas creencias y a la creación de los mitos alimentarios. Objetivos: Analizar el conocimiento de la sociedad española sobre los mitos alimentarios y evaluar los medios más utilizados para obtener dicho conocimiento. Metodología: Se elaboró una encuesta, distribuida electrónicamente a 200 participantes, con preguntas sobre algunos mitos alimentarios y sobre los medios de comunicación empleados para adquirir información sobre alimentación y nutrición. Resultados: La mayoría de los encuestados respondió correctamente a las preguntas. Casi un 80% admitió buscar información sobre alimentación de forma voluntaria, utilizando fundamentalmente internet y visitando principalmente redes sociales como Instagram, Facebook o Twitter. Conclusión: La población recibe noticias sobre alimentación y nutrición a través de distintos medios, por lo que es importante concienciar a la sociedad de que hay que tener espíritu crítico y contrastar la información transmitida con el fin de erradicar mitos y noticias falsas.
