Published: August 2022

Under specific circumstances, organized columnar phases can be formed from the planar discoid shapes of the molecules that make up discotic liquid crystals. These materials offer unusual features because of their distinct columnar phase structure. They are utilized in organic semiconductors, liquid crystal magnetic materials, and photoelectric conversion. It has numerous applications, so researchers are paying more and more attention to it. In this paper, the effects of alkynyl groups on the properties of discotic liquid crystals at various positions are emphatically discussed. The main focus is on the alkynyl-containing discotic liquid crystal molecules and their properties reported in domestic and foreign literature in the past ten years.
In-Stent Restenosis after Carotid Stenting
Authors: Behl Daniela
Published: August 2022

Carotid artery stenosis is a major risk factor for ischemic stroke. Currently, carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is the surgical treatment of choice for carotid artery stenosis. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) increases the risk of carotid artery stenosis. CAS is one of the treatment options available, particularly for high-risk CEA patients. Although CAS has the advantages of being less invasive, causing less patient discomfort, and requiring a shorter hospital stay, some patients may develop in-stent restenosis (ISR). ISR is closely related to clinical events such as transient ischemic attacks and ischemic stroke recurrence. The author examines the mechanism, influencing factors, and research progress of ISR following CAS, as well as its prevention and treatment, in order to provide clinical insights for clinicians.
Pharmaceutical Therapies for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Complicated by Pulmonary Hypertension
Authors: Karyana Levina
Published: August 2022

As a chronic lung condition, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is well-known. As our understanding of COPD’s consequences has grown, pulmonary hypertension (PH) has drawn a growing amount of attention. Patients’ quality of life is significantly impacted by the higher mortality and poor prognosis of COPD patients with PH, and there are still no effective medications available to treat the condition. The development of medication therapy for COPD complicated by PH was examined in order to fully comprehend the state of the disease’s treatment at the moment. The findings suggest that for COPD patients with PH, the underlying disorders should be treated as well as possible. Statin and fasudil may also be advantageous, although the impact of targeted medications is still debatable. The effectiveness of various medications for COPD will eventually need to be further elucidated by larger randomized controlled studies.
A Look at How Philosophical Perspectives of Adult Education Shape the Practice at Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica
Authors: Barrantes-Elizondo Lena
Published: August 2022

Introduction. Looking close at the philosophical orientation of institutions and educators allows the examination of whether teaching practice, in this case, higher education, is consistent with the purpose of education. Objective. In the interest of gaining a historical understanding of the role of the Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica (UNA) in adult education in Costa Rica, this essay aims to analyze philosophical perspectives by drawing on relevant written documentation. Discussion. This institution is currently one of the five public universities in Costa Rica and has a robust student funding system. Under its necessary university principle, students with different economic and social statuses have access to high-quality post-secondary education. Having a clear educational philosophy is vital as it helps examine the educators’ and the institution’s practice critically. This essay gives a broader understanding of the philosophical perspectives behind the teaching and learning practices proposed by UNA’s core guideline, the Pedagogical Model (PM). Conclusions. As final conclusions, it can be stated that this institution has lost its driving humanistic perspective, established in the first Organization Statute. In addition, on a sad note, Nuñez’s founding philosophical orientation and goals for UNA are partially accomplished since even though there is an accessible education for all, teaching and learning practices do not guarantee any commitment to social action and social reform.
Política cultural como instância do desenvolvimento social e do interesse comum no Brasil
Authors: Gomes Cilene , Zanetti Valéria Regina
Published: August 2022

O artigo tem o objetivo de compreender a trajetória histórica das políticas culturais no Brasil com a finalidade de situar a desconstrução em curso dessa mesma história e, no sentido inverso dessa tendência, acentuar a revalorização de suas importantes conquistas. Conjugados a esta perspectivação histórico-crítica da política cultural, valeu-se de aportes teóricos sobre as relações entre cultura e desenvolvimento, que culminam com o debate regional sobre a cultura no quadro das discussões gerais em vista do planejamento e do desenvolvimento regional no Vale do Paraíba e Litoral Norte Paulista. Com base em breve perfil de parâmetros indicativos da política cultural nos 39 municípios integrantes da região em foco, salienta-se que, embora a gestão cultural se mostre insuficiente, após a Constituição Federal de 1988, são perceptíveis movimentos regionais pontuais preocupados com a construção de sistemas municipais de cultura alinhados com as diretrizes democráticas da política nacional e interesses comuns de agentes locais comprometidos com a cultura e o planejamento do desenvolvimento regional. Percebeu-se que a discussão sobre sistema nacional, descentralização e atuação sinérgica de agentes locais é essencial para a promoção de políticas culturais; no entanto, é preciso que a cultura seja pensada à luz de um novo saber epistemológico de descolonização do olhar que promova a construção social de sentidos afirmativos de singularidades, de sujeitos, comunidades e lugares.

Autor wykorzystał literaturę przedmiotu: naukowe opracowania dotyczące historii zakonu oraz historii powstania Ratio Studiorum, a także roli rywalizacji w wychowaniu i edukacji. Analiza źródła pozwoliła badaczowi dostrzec istotny element, rozwijający ducha rywalizacji, czyli system kar i nagród oraz sposób doceniania najlepszych uczniów.
Wyniki i wnioski. Wnioskiem pracy jest stwierdzenie, że jezuici przykładali duże znaczenie do współzawodnictwa w wychowywaniu młodych chłopców oraz stymulowali ich rozwój za pomocą systemu kar i nagród.
Wartość poznawcza. Rozprawa prezentuje jeden z elementów programowych kształcenia jezuickiego w nowożytnej Europie i może stanowić element do szerszych badań nad historią zakonu oraz historią edukacji.
Proces decyzyjny na przykładzie przestępczości przeciwko mieniu. Analiza jakościowa wywiadów pogłębionych.
Authors: Tajak-Bobek Agnieszka
Published: August 2022

Cel: Celem artykułu jest prezentacja analizy procesu podejmowania decyzji przestępczej w grupie osób które popełniły przestępstwa przeciwko mieniu. Przedmiotem badań była analiza postrzegania przez sprawców swoich własnych decyzji przestępczych oraz swojej roli w tym procesie.

Metody badań: W badaniach wykonano jakościową analizę wywiadów narracyjnych, które zostały przeprowadzone w polskich zakładach karnych na grupie 45 osób pierwszy raz skazanych oraz recydywistów penitencjarnych, którzy popełnili przestępstwa kradzieży, kradzieży z włamaniem oraz rozboju. Model teoretyczny badań wpisuje się w nurt postrzegania przestępcy, jako osoby racjonalnej, ale i również ograniczonej poznawczo.

Wyniki: Model podejmowania decyzji przestępczych różni się w zależności od rodzaju popełnionego czynu karalnego. Mimo tego można wyróżnić 3 etapy tego procesu na które to składają się czynności przeddecyzyjne, czynności centralne i czynności postdecyzyjne. Na każdym etapie decyzyjnym występują różne zniekształcenia poznawcze.

Wnioski: Nie ma jednego uniwersalnego modelu decyzyjnego dla wszystkich sprawców przestępstw przeciwko mieniu. Na każdym etapie procesu decyzyjnego pojawiają się u sprawców przestępstw zniekształcenia poznawcze, które zaburzają racjonalne decyzje i tym samym ułatwiają łamanie prawa.

Wnioski dla praktyki: Należy prowadzić dalsze badania nad procesem podejmowania decyzji przestępczych w poszczególnych kategoriach przestępstw w celu identyfikacji zniekształceń poznawczych oraz lepszego dopasowania profilaktycznych i korekcyjnych oddziaływań do pracy z osobami niedostosowanymi społecznie. 

Wartość poznawcza: Prezentowane wyniki badań uzupełniają znaczne braki w literaturze, szczególnie polskiej. Badania pozwoliły zidentyfikować i opisać czynniki związane z popełnianiem przestępstw, które to są ważne z punktu widzenia odziaływań resocjalizacyjnych.
Uczniowie kontra anachroniczny system oświaty
Authors: Miś Krystian , Krawczyk Aleksandra
Published: August 2022

Cel. Celem artykułu jest prezentacja refleksji dotyczącej wybranych elementów przemocy symbolicznej, funkcjonującej w przestrzeni szkolnej oraz niektórych strategii oporu społeczności uczniowskiej. Wybranym do analizy przykładem przemocy symbolicznej jest obecny w instytucjach oświaty determinizm aksjologiczny związany z intencjonalną (i nieskuteczną) izolacją dyskursu szkolnego od rzeczywistych doświadczeń młodzieży szkolnej. Omawiane w tym wystąpieniu aspekty wspomnianego zjawiska skupione są wokół zagadnień związanych z (m.in.) seksualnością oraz kontrowersjami polityczno-społecznymi i etycznymi w tym obszarze, zaś egzemplifikacją – analiza uczniowskich protestów.

Metody badawcze. Analiza materiałów bieżących (w tym materiałów ulotnych). Ramą teoretyczną dla tych analiz jest koncepcja przemocy symbolicznej Pierre'a Bourdieu (Bourdieu 2004, s. 45), dokonana przezeń oraz Jean-Claude’a Passerona (Bourdieu, Passeron, 206) krytyka systemu szkolnictwa oraz Michela Foucaulta (Foucault, 2009) koncepcja instytucji władzy (takich jak szpital, więzienie czy szkoła).

Wyniki i wnioski. Strategie przemocy instytucji szkolnych (reakcyjność zachowań, anachroniczne wzorce aksjologiczne, stygmatyzacja własnych przekonań) skutkują:

Zwiększeniem dysonansu poznawczego i aksjologicznego uczniów i pracowników szkolnych;

Osłabieniem efektywnej presji szkolnej, a co za tym idzie zmniejszeniem faktycznego oddziaływania szkolnej przemocy symbolicznej opartej o reakcyjne wzorce; co razem prowadzi do:

Nasilenia potrzeby działań kontestacyjnych (m.in poprzez udział w strajkach społecznych).

Anachronizm instytucji oświaty wpłynął na poszukiwania nowej, alternatywnej wspólnoty. Uczniowie organizowali alternatywne metody ekspresji i uczestnictwa. Na przykładzie uczestnictwa w Strajku Kobiet można zauważyć znaczącą polityzację języka uczniów oraz zwiększoną skłonność konfrontacji ze szkolnymi "tabu".

Słowa kluczowe: przemoc symboliczna, instytucja szkolna, władza; przestrzeń szkolna, uczniowie

Effects of Money Politics on Party Primaries in Nigerian 2019 General Election: Reflections on All Progressives Congress (APC) and People's Democratic Party (PDP)
Authors: Sule Babayo
Published: August 2022

Money politics has become an acceptable norm and a part of Nigerian political culture before and after the conduct of general elections since the resurgence of the democratic rule in the Fourth Republic (1999). The nature and dimension of money politics have taken a new picture in Nigerian politics during the party primaries in preparation for the 2019 General Election, particularly between the two major contending parties; the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who were involved in excessive use of money unprecedented in the history of Nigerian politics during the party primaries in September and October 2018. This work investigated the role of money in determining the outcome of party primaries in Nigeria in the ruling APC and the major opposition PDP and how it will affect the General Election in 2019. The research used a quantitative method of data collection and analysis. Both the primary and secondary sources were used during the conduct of the research. The data obtained were grouped in a thematic form where a simple tabular percentage was used for interpretations and results. The research discovered that there was an extraordinary deployment of money from the state-owned resources by politicians to arrest their campaign expenses and political ambition. In the process, vote-buying and excessive spending violated the electoral process and deprived the electorates of getting credible candidates in the parties' primaries. The research recommends that there is a need for a more aggressive and severe sanction on all politicians that are found in this evil act. The work also realized the serious need for massive public enlightenment on the evil of money politics.
Prioritization of Food-Chemical Hazard Pairs of Indonesian Fishery Products Based on Export Rejection Year 2017-2019
Authors: Indrotristanto Nugroho , Andarwulan Nuri , Fardiaz Dedi , Dewanti-Hariyadi Ratih
Published: August 2022

Necessary approaches are needed to reduce the impact of rejected exported Indonesian seafood due to chemical contamination. This study aims to prioritize food and chemical pairs in the rejected fishery products. The rejection data from three major export destinations: the United States, the European Union, and Japan in 2017-2019 were used. Combinations of food and chemicals were developed and screened, followed by constructing a risk matrix to prioritize the pairs based on health and economic impact. Based on the health impact, a tuna–histamine pair was considered medium risk along with other commodities pairing with heavy metals. Tuna is the most exported seafood and suffers from the most loss; hence it has the highest score for severity and likelihood of economic impact. The combination of health and economic-based prioritization suggested that tuna–histamine was the top priority for immediate mitigation. The second priority consisted of shark–mercury, swordfish–mercury, octopus–cadmium; mahi-mahi–histamine was the third priority. This prioritization can assist risk managers in determining the order of commodities be acted upon based on health and economic considerations to enhance global market access.
Towards conflicting chronologies
Authors: Svampa Lucila
Published: August 2022

This article considers the role that spatiality played in Koselleck’s work. With that aim, we will examine how the writer dealt with the relationship between historicity and spatiality. His few theorizations regarding this topic will be taken into account, as well as different concepts relevant to his work that evoke this partnership. Through an analysis of five terms, Zeitschichten, Erfahrungsraum, Erwartungshorizont, Standortbindung, and Utopie, we will show how spatiality holds a secondary position in relation to history and how they affect Koselleck’s theory of historical times.
A agência dos mortos na teoria ator-rede a partir da descrição do translado da múmia de Ramsés II em Bruno Latour
Authors: Quirim Diogo
Published: August 2022

O objetivo deste artigo é traduzir a teoria ator-rede para a historiografia com a finalidade de descrever a agência de atores do “passado” no “presente”. Isto será feito a partir do resgate da descrição do translado da múmia de Ramsés II do Museu do Cairo para Paris em 1976, realizada por Bruno Latour em textos nos quais sustenta a sua tese da historicidade dos objetos científicos. A partir da descrição deste fenômeno, neste artigo visa-se a criar ferramentas etnográficas que permitam utilizar a teoria ator-rede na historiografia para traçar as políticas do tempo em redes compostas por agências multitemporais. Essa abordagem tem por justificativa contribuir para a investigação sobre as tanatoagências no “presente” como participantes legítimas que apresentam proposições nas controvérsias políticas. Por fim, neste artigo conclui-se que a teoria ator-rede pode ser uma metodologia eficiente para a descrição da agência dos mortos na coetaneidade desde que sejam consideradas as mediações implicadas nos processos de temporalização e seja assumido um pluralismo ontológico das formas de se fabricar o tempo.

Authors: DAYI Eylem , BASIK Reyhan
Published: August 2022

Bu araştırma; Covid-19 pandemisi sonrasında eğitim-öğretim kademelerinin tamamında aktif olarak kullanılmaya başlanan uzaktan eğitim (UE) çerçevesinde, özel gereksinimli (ÖG) üniversite öğrencilerinin ve bu öğrencilere destek olmak için kurulan birim koordinatörlüklerinin iş birliği durumunu incelemeyi amaçlamıştır. Araştırma’nın çalışma grubunu Türkiye’deki vakıf ve devlet üniversitelerinde öğrenim gören ÖG 100 öğrenci ve beş devlet üniversitesinde aktif olarak hizmet veren engelli öğrenci birim koordinatörlüğünün ilgili beş personeli oluşturmuştur. Bu amaç doğrultusunda iki yönlü gerçekleştirilen araştırmanın nicel kısmında kullanılmak üzere araştırmacılar tarafından “ÖG Üniversite Öğrencilerinin UE Sürecini ve Engelli Öğrenci Birim Koordinatörlüğü ile İş Birliği Durumunu Belirleme Formu” isimli bir anket formu geliştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın ikinci aşamasında ise üniversitelerin engelli öğrenci birim koordinatörlüğünü yürüten personelin iş birliği sürecini belirlemek amacı ile yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniği ve bu doğrultuda hazırlanan görüşme soruları kullanılmıştır. Bu araştırma için geliştirilen anket formu kullanılarak toplanan nicel veriler IBM SPSS Statistics 23 paket programı ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bireysel görüşmeler yapılarak elde edilen nitel veriler ise, MAXQDA 2020 paket programı kullanılarak içerik analizi tekniği ile çözümlenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, ÖG öğrencilerin UE sürecinde yaşadığı zorluğun bir nedeni olarak bu süreçte üniversitelerin kullandığı teknik alt yapı ve sistemlerin (yazılımlar, araç-gereçler vb.), ders materyallerinin erişilebilirliği olduğu, bazı engelli öğrenci birimlerinin aktif olarak faaliyet göstermediği, aktif faaliyet gösteren birimlerin bir kısmının ÖG öğrencilerden yaşadıkları güçlüklere ilişkin dönüt alamadığı görülmüştür. Bazı birimler ise engelli ÖG öğrencilerin yaşadıkları güçlüklerle ilgili olarak üniversitenin üst yönetimiyle ortak çözümler üretilmesi gerektiğini ifade etmişlerdir. Üniversitelerde bulunan engelli öğrenci birimleri ile öğrenciler arasındaki koordinasyonun güçlenmesi, birimlerin öğrencilere daha iyi hizmet sunabilmesi için ihtiyaçlarının belirlenmesi ve bu ihtiyaçların karşılamansı gerektiği söylenebilir.
Waste as property: The law’s role in maximising value
Authors: Cramer Richard
Published: August 2022

The concept of waste is explored against the background of the law of property. Drawing on the work of Eduardo Peñalver, this article addresses how waste is a form of property, property for which the law heavily regulates disposal. Conceptualising waste in such a manner is possible, as it is possible for property to have not only a positive value but also a negative value. How the law regulates the disposal of our unwanted property has important ramifications for the waste cycle. Restricting the disposal of waste can encourage practices such as recycling, and ensure waste is directed to the waste streams in which maximum value can be extracted therefrom. This contribution aims to illustrate the above through the example of mine waste, as the value of mine waste is context-sensitive. It is possible for this form of waste to take on a positive or a negative value, depending on context. Furthermore, it is crucial that such waste be adequately regulated, to ensure the extraction of maximum value, both economic and social. Significance:

Waste can be conceptualised as property, and the law strictly regulates the disposal of all forms of property. The law can play an important role in ensuring that maximum value is realised from waste.
An estimate of construction and demolition waste quantities and composition expected in South Africa
Authors: Berge Sally , von Blottnitz Harro
Published: August 2022

Construction and demolition (C&D) waste is generated from the construction, renovation, repair and demolition of the built environment. It is one of the largest waste streams and is generally not well documented or understood. Various methods for estimating C&D waste are reviewed, and the development of two methods for estimating C&D waste quantities and composition generated in South Africa is discussed. The lifetime method is based on current production quantities of key construction materials and their typical stock life. This is contrasted with the scale-up of a pocket of reasonably good statistics for Cape Town’s C&D waste on a per-capita basis to determine totals for South Africa. The lifetime method yielded a result of 20.2 Mt of potential C&D waste generated in South Africa in 2017, while the per-capita method suggests that 10.8 Mt of C&D waste reached disposal sites. These quantities are much higher than the 4.48 Mt reported in official national statistics for 2017. It is important to understand and accurately quantify C&D waste in South Africa so that effective waste management can be implemented. Specifically, the reuse of C&D waste needs to be understood, as this takes precedence over recycling or downcycling according to circular economy principles. Overall, this research highlights that C&D waste quantities in South Africa appear to be considerably underreported, undermining attempts to introduce more sustainable waste management practices.Significance:

The results of both methods used in this study were significantly higher than reported in official South African statistics, indicating considerable underreporting in national databases as in most waste statistics worldwide.
The informal sector is plausibly an intensive reuser of discarded building materials and demolition products from the formal sector. The omission of these informal waste management practices is a likely contributor to the difference between the official statistics and both estimates.
It is important to accurately quantify this waste stream as this can contribute to increasing materials circularity in South Africa and lower environmental impact through the achievement of circular economy goals.
What material flow analysis and life cycle assessment reveal about plastic polymer production and recycling in South Africa
Authors: Goga Taahira , Harding Kevin , Russo Valentina , Von Blottnitz Harro
Published: August 2022

Global production and consumption of plastics have increased significantly in recent years. The environmental impacts associated with this trend have received growing attention internationally with single-use plastic packaging responsible for most plastic pollution. Locally, the SA Plastics Pact, the Industry Master Plan, and the National Waste Management Strategy all aim to transform the current linear sector model into a circular system by setting targets for increased collection and recycling rates and recycled content. However, the associated impacts of implementing such circular interventions have not yet been assessed across the plastics life cycle. Industrial ecology tools, material flow analysis and life cycle assessment, are used to generate mass-based indicators as well as indicators of climate damage in the form of the global warming potential. The carbon footprint of the South African plastics value chain from cradle to grave was estimated at 17.9 Mt CO2eq emissions in 2018, with 52% of these due to the local coal-based monomer production process. The end-of-life stage lacks proper waste collection for a third of the population, but contributes only 2% to the total greenhouse gas emissions, with recycling having a minimal environmental impact. Future projections of plastics production, use, disposal, and recycling for 2025 show that increasing mechanical recycling rates to achieve stated targets would start to have a significant effect on virgin polymer demand (in the order of several billion rands of sales annually) but would also reduce waste disposal by 28% relative to baseline growth and 18% below values calculated for 2018. Significance:

Despite increased attention, the flows and resulting life cycle-based carbon footprint of the plastics sector have not been evaluated on a local scale.
The carbon footprint of the South African plastics industry is sizeable at almost 18 Mt CO2eq per annum with emissions strongly associated with the linear rather than the circular stages of the value chain.
The impacts of a key circular economy intervention, namely increased recycling rates to achieve set targets include demand reduction for virgin polymer to the tune of several billion rands.
Definitions matter: Including the socio-economic dimension as a critical component of SADC circular economy definitions

Globally, scholars agree that there is a lack of clarity on the notion of the circular economy (CE) and a lack of consensus on a foundational definition of the term. Some definitions place greater emphasis on the socio-economic dimension of the CE than others. In Africa, notions of the CE are still evolving. This paper highlights the salient aspects of texts defining or informing the CE in the Southern African Development Community (SADC). In Africa, the transition to circularity is motivated by the need to stimulate job creation and income generation. At the same time, concern over mounting environmental impacts is increasing. Economic and population growth on the continent, continued urbanisation, and the resulting proliferation of municipal waste contribute to these economic, social and environmental challenges. African governments, business communities, civil society and academia need to collaborate on initiatives that build on circularity principles to advance sustainable development in pursuit of equitable and just societies. This exploratory semi-systematic literature review contributes not only to developing notions of the CE in Africa, but also to the dialogue on circularity in the Global South. In particular, it investigates the extent to which the socio-economic dimension is incorporated in notions of the CE. Moreover, it argues that a strong emphasis on this dimension is imperative in the conceptual development of circularity on the African continent. We argue for the future foregrounding of definitions of the CE that are consistent with social transformation as an aspiration in regional legislative and regulatory frameworks.Significance:

Contributes to conceptualisation of the CE in the Global South.
Indicates how SADC policy dictates the importance of the socio-economic dimension as a regional priority, and therefore signals the primacy of this aspect in the development of a contextual notion of CE.
Includes a review of grey literature related to the SADC region in the analysis of the notion of the CE.
Exploring community perceptions of illegal dumping in Fisantekraal using participatory action research
Authors: Niyobuhungiro Rissa V. , Schenck Catherina
Published: August 2022

We present the results from two interactive methodologies (interview and focus groups) that were used as part of a participatory action research (PAR) project to identify the reasons for and solutions to illegal dumping in Fisantekraal, Cape Town, South Africa. Worldwide, PAR has been applied in the context of marginalised groups and in different fields to stimulate dialogue amongst research participants, with the ultimate goal of promoting social change. The opinions expressed by the research participants (community members, NGOs, municipal officials, academics) demonstrate that the voices of the community matter and illustrate the transformative potential of the PAR methodology to change the status of stakeholder engagement in decision making regarding a pressing concern such as illegal dumping in community. The research discussed here led to some planning of initiatives and to planned change because the conversations/interviews/focus groups at least allowed people to come together to discuss possibilities. It helped the community and other stakeholders to come together and share their views of the problem and to plan together for what could work to curb illegal dumping. Community projects were subsequently initiated, and their impact will be evaluated in future research.Significance:

This study shows the potential of the PAR process to facilitate conversations about a particular issue between various stakeholders in a community where effective communication is challenging. The inclusivity of PAR allows for the voices of marginalised communities to be heard and allows people to take ownership of an issue in their community, such as illegal dumping.
SOME FRAGMENTS OF FROM THE HISTORY OF THE PUBLICISTIC HERITAGE OF THE OCCUPIED TSKHINVALI REGION IN GEORGIA (Ivane Eliozishvili)
Authors: MGHEBRİSHVİLİ Aleksandre
Published: August 2022

Among the intellectual and creative forces of the Tskhinvali region of the second half of the 19th century and the end of the 20th century, the personality of Ivane Eliozishvili occupies a prominent place. In the history of Georgian culture and Georgian journalism, his name stands out together with brothers - Davit and Nikoloz Avalishvili.
Nikoloz Avalishvili, upset with the "Tsiskri" group, starts thinking about his own periodical publication. The young activist gathers like-minded people around him, who criticize the team of "Droeba" already existing at that time, refer to "Tsiskari" as a dead publication and believe that after the closure of "Sakartvelos Moambe" society needs a "regular Georgian magazine". (Mnatobi, 1869a).
Although the idea of founding one's own magazine was interesting, in addition to motivation, it was necessary to find financial resources, without which Nikoloz Avalishvili's initiative would have remained only a dream. Two figures, Nikoloz Avalishvili's brother - Davit Avalishvili and Ivane Eliozishvili, were the guarantors of financial support for the magazine, which was still in its infancy.
Davit Avalishvili dedicated his own house to the editorial office and printing house of "Mnatobi" magazine, organized a printing house at his own expense, and his companion Ivane Eliozishvili became the guarantor of the financial security of the magazine. This was even reflected on all issues of "Mnatobi", where it is written together with the editor - "Publisher Iv. Eliozishvili". It should be noted that with this fact, for the first time in the history of Georgian journalism, different persons were recorded as editors and publishers.
According to Prof. Al. Kalandadze, Iv. Eliozishvili participated in setting up a printing press, managed economic affairs and was legally responsible before the government. It must be said that none of the above-mentioned persons had any material interest in this case, they used Georgian literature free of charge and were ready to systematically cover the inevitable losses. (Kalandadze, 1986: 9)
Iv. Eliozishvili actively cooperated in his contemporary periodical press and tried not to ignore any important problem, especially if it concerns his native corner - Tskhinvali and its surrounding villages.
Operation of Software for Motion Correction of Cardiac MRI by Respiratory Phase v1
Authors: Van Doren Steven , Xu Jia , Luan Zhijian , Shammi Afia
Published: August 2022

Collection of real-time cardiac MRI scans during breathing is desirable for sick patients unable to hold their breath. The breathing motion in such scans can, however, can be distracting for physicians and clinical staff. Here we introduce the simple operation of our software that minimizes distracting breathing motion in a cardiac MRI scan. The software segregates the cardiac cycles at end-expiration and end-inspiration. The software generates two DICOM files: one with the cardiac cycles from end-expiration (recommended) and the other with the cardiac cycles from end-inspiration (use as needed). The software also plots the time courses of breathing and heart contraction during the dynamic scan, providing a temporal "road map" of the scan. Only a few clicks are needed to operate the software under Windows.

Elucidating Spinal Dopaminergic Mechanisms That Modulate the Recovered Micturition Reflex after Spinal Cord Injury
Authors:   , DeFinis Jaclyn Helen , Hou Shaoping
Published: August 2022

Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) often results in lower urinary tract (LUT) dysfunction. Although a spinal bladder reflex can be established over time, loss of supraspinal modulation causes detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia and bladder hyperreflexia, which manifests as incontinence and inefficient voiding. As a result of incomplete emptying, residual urine leads to urinary tract infections and, in some cases, kidney failure. Currently, urinary complications are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in SCI patients. While spontaneous reorganization of spinal neuronal circuits occurs after injury, the extent is limited, and the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Recently, we discovered a subpopulation of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH+) cells residing within the lower spinal cord and a low level of dopamine (DA) that persists in the lumbosacral cord which could modulate the recovered, though limited, bladder reflex. This data suggests that there are spinal endogenous dopaminergic mechanisms capable of regulating LUT function after SCI. These studies tested the hypothesis that spinal dopaminergic mechanisms, such as spinal TH⁺ cells and dopaminergic receptors, emerge as a compensatory response to help regulate micturition reflexes following SCI. Aim 1 examined the dopaminergic features and connectivity of spinal TH⁺ cells and how they are affected by injury. Aim 2 elucidated whether dopaminergic receptors regulate micturition reflexes and if pharmacological manipulation of such receptors can improve urinary performance after SCI. Overall, this work provides a significant contribution to the field by thoroughly investigating injury-induced molecular, anatomical, and functional alterations in the dopaminergic system and its effects on micturition reflexes subsequent to SCI.

This dissertation reviews the impact that social media had on the process of legalizing marijuana. Since the first social media sites came online in the late 1990s, they have provided a means for average citizens and organizations to make impactful statements to their state-level legislators. Before the development of these platforms, lobbying for a change in policy was an expensive undertaking limited to professionals. Using social learning theory and field force theory, this dissertation will explore the role played by social media platforms in the successful campaigns to legalize marijuana in South Dakota, Florida, and Colorado. The goal of this paper is to identify the actions that were most instrumental in changing consumers' views and behaviors. Doing so could enable businesses to determine the most effective and efficient means of using social platforms to change the public's perceptions about their products and/or services.

Published: August 2022

Background: In vitro fertilization (IVF) is the need of modern era which was first developed to overcome the infertility resulting from irreparable tubal disease but now is applied more broadly for treatment of all causes of infertility including polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and is associated with obstetric complications as well. This study aimed to whether pregnancy-related outcomes and complications are differed between patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and those with other causes of infertility who had undergone IVF. Objective were to compare maternal and fetal outcome in IVF conceived women with PCOS v/s without PCOS. Prospective comparative study at a tertiary care hospital.Methods: After getting approval from institutional ethical and scientific research committee, 108 IVF conceived women are studied, where IVF is done using controlled ovarian stimulation with GnRH antagonist protocol followed by freeze all strategy and preparation of endometrial lining. Frozen embryo transfer done in subsequent cycle over a period of one year. Study group includes women with PCOS and control group includes women without PCOS. The entire data is statistically analysed using statistical package for social sciences (SPSS ver 22.0, IBM Corporation, USA) for MS Windows.Results: Out of 108 IVF conceived pregnant women studied, 50% were PCOS (study group) and 50% non PCOS (control group). We have compared maternal and neonatal outcome in both the groups which shows patient in PCOS group has higher incidence of GDM, severe pre-eclampsia, preterm labour, LBW babies, SGA babies and babies admitted to NICU.Conclusions: Women with PCOS should be given notice of additional adverse pregnancy outcomes as well receiving early diagnosis and treatment for these complications during pregnancy and postpartum period.
