A Protestáns Tábori Püspökség története a megalakulásától az 1951-es megszűnéséig (2.)
Authors: Varga A. József
Published: September 2023

2023-ban emlékezünk meg a Protestáns Tábori Püspökség megalakulásának 100. évfordulójáról. A protestáns tábori lelkészek már az 1848–49-es szabadságharcban is kitűntek szolgálatukkal. Igazán az első világháború pokla mutatta meg, mekkora szükség van rájuk, de a két háború közötti időszakban, majd a második világháborúban, a fogolytáborok világában is helyt álltak. Az 1950-es évek elején szándékosan elsorvasztott szolgálatot a rendszerváltás után, 1994-ben szervezték újjá. A szerző háromrészes tanulmányában a Protestáns Tábori Püspökség történetét mutatja be a szolgálat megalakulásától 1951-es megszűnéséig.

Distribution of the Emperor Moth Caterpillar, Cirina forda (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) on Sheanut Tree Canopy a Ilorin, Nigeria
Authors: ODEYEMI M.O. , FASORANTI J.O
Published: September 2023

The distribution of larval instars of Cirina forda on the sheanut trees, Vittelaria paradoxa was studied in the permanent site of the University of Ilorin, Early instars were evenly distributed within the tree crowns. The downward movement of later stages was first preceded by a slight upward migration to ‘the tree top. Majority (90 %) of the penultimate larva instars live in the lower crown area on their way to pupate in the soil. High mortality factors due to predatory ant Oecophylla will not make the rearing of this insect economically feasible in the natural setting of Ilorin area. The paper suggests the adoption of artificial diet for the mass production of C. forda larvae.

Authors: OKUNADE S.O. , WILLIAMS J.O. , IBRAHIM M.H.
Published: September 2023

The efficacy of some botanicals were compared with one another and with that of two synthetic powdered insecticides, Pirimiphos – methyl (Actellic) and permethrin (Coopex) in Nigerian Stored Products Research Institute, Entomology Laboratory Kano, between February and April, 2000 for seven weeks on grains of sorghum. The botanicals tested include Arachis hypogaea, Annona senegalensis, Dichrostachys platycarpa, Eragrostic major, Euphorbia laterifora, Mitracarpum scabrum, Monechma hispida, Ocimum americium, 0. viride, Parkia Filieoidae, Pennisetum glaucum and Striga senegalensis. The botanicals were applied at the rate of 2.0g/100g grains while the synthetic powder were applied at the rate of 0.05g/100g grains. The results show that there was significant difference (P> 0.05) in adult mortality between the treatments after seven weeks of storage. While the two synthetic insecticides resulted in 100% adult. mortality, there was no significant difference between them and Ocimum americanum which gave mean mortality of 93. 25%. not significantly different (P 2: 0.05) in mean percentage adult insect mortality with 75.76%, 71.16% and 70.52% respectively. D. platycarpa followed with adult mortality of 60.96%; P. filicoidae (bark of stem) and P. glaucum recorded 50.70% and 44.60% respectively. The poor performance of the latter is traceable to the smaller quantity of the botanical admixtured. S. senegalensis, M. hispida and E. major gave mean percentage mortalities of 42.53%, 42.48% and 40.01% respectively, while A. hypogaea with mean percentage mortality of 30.46% was no significantly different from the control with a mortality of 19.86%.
Laboratory Study of Predatory Efficacy of Dragonfly Larvae, Catfish and Tadpoles against Container – Breeding Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in Makurdi, Nigeria
Authors: OMUDU E.A. , IBRAHIM H . K .
Published: September 2023

Three known predators of mosquito larvae namely; dragonfly larvae (Libellulidae), catfish (Clariidae) and tadpoles (Rana temporaria) were tested for predator efficacy. Four and two individuals of each of the predators were introduced into three replicates each of bowls containing 100 mosquito larvae in 10-12 litres of water with a control. Surviving larvae were counted at 8 hours interval for 48hours. The reduction of population of mosquito larvae was significant (P<0.05) for all predators. Dragonfly larvae consumed more mosquito larvae than catfish and tadpoles (reducing mean number of 100-6.0 in 48 hours). The outcome of this laboratory investigation revealed that larvae of dragonfly possess higher predatory potential as biological control agent for mosquitoes inhabiting man -made breeding habitats.

Published: September 2023

The influence of various soybean and maize intercropping patterns on major insect pests and yield of soybean were studied in the 1995 and 1996 planting seasons (July -September) at Umudike, south eastern Nigeria. The most prevalent insect pests found infesting soybean at the vegetative and early flowering stages, 2 weeks after planting (WAP) to 8 WAP in all the intercropping patterns were the defoliators, Monolepta duplicata Sahl. and Ootheca mutabilis Linnaeus. The stink bugs, Nezara viridula Linnaeus and Aspavia armigera Fabricuis attacked soybean plants from 8 WAP to 14 WAP, at the reproductive stage up to the pod drying stage. During both years, the peak populations for the defoliators and stink bugs ranged from 4 WAP to 5 WAP and 10 WAP to 11 WAP, respectively. Soybean planted sole had more leaf damage and significantly (P = 0.05) higher incidence of M duplicata, O. mutabilis, N. viridula and A. armigera than in other cropping patterns, with soybean planted on the crest of the ridge in the maize/ soybean intercrop being the least infested. Seed yields were significantly (p=0.05) higher when soybean was planted on the crest of the ridge in the maize/soybean intercrop than in other intercropping patterns. Seed yield reductions of 16.0% and 12.5% were obtained in the sole cropping compared with when soybean was planted on the. crest of the ridge in the intercrop, in 1995 and 1996, respectively. The study suggests that maize offered protection to soybean in the mixture by reducing the population of defoliators and stink bugs which resulted in reduced yield losses

Published: September 2023

Objective: The aim of this study is to analyze the long-term outcomes of above-knee femoro-popliteal bypass procedures with Omniflow II biosynthetic grafts. Primary patency and graft related complications were the end points of the study.

Methods: Between January 2012 and January 2021, a total of 50 patients (42 males, 8 females) were revascularized using an in-situ Omniflow II graft. Demographic, clinical, operative and postoperative characteristics of the patients were analyzed retrospectively.

Results: Mean age was 63.8±10.1 (range 40-82) years. Fifty above-knee femoropopliteal bypass procedures were performed. Four patients (8%) were operated on due to a previous vascular graft infection where 8 (16%) were operated on due to a previous occlusion. Primary patency rate was 88%. Early graft thrombosis occurred in 2 (4%) patients where late graft stenosis unrelated to the anastomotic sites was encountered in 1 (2%) patient. An endarterectomy on either the proximal or distal site of the anastomosis were performed in 12 (24%) patients. Mean follow-up was 32.9±20.8 (range 12-90) months. Three (6%) patients died due to a COVID-19 infection. No graft infection nor mortality related to arterial bypass procedures was encountered.

Conclusion: The Omniflow II biosynthetic graft provides superior results in treatment of above-knee femoro-popliteal bypass procedures with high patency rates and low incidence of graft infection and aneurysm formation

Published: September 2023

Introduction and aim: Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of vancomycin aims to achieve an optimal response and minimize the risk of toxicity by keeping plasma levels within the therapeutic range. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the treatment and appropriateness of TDM in patients receiving vancomycin.

Method: For this purpose, patients who received vancomycin in the ICUs of a university hospital during 8-month period between January and August 2022 were retrospectively evaluated. Demographic data, presence of renal dysfunction, length of stay, duration of treatment, dose, concomitant medications, presence of extracorporeal method, TDM, sampling time (trough and peak level) were collected.

Results: Within the scope of the study, 213 prescriptions of 202 patients were evaluated and it was revealed that TDM was performed in 18 (8%). A total of 26 trough (n=12) and peak (n=14) level were obtained. Three (25%) of the trough and eight (57%) of the peak samples were taken at the wrong time. 50% of the trough and 64% of the peak level results were outside the reference range. TDM was not performed in 174 patients taking nephrotoxic drugs concomitantly with vancomycin. There were 84 patients who developed acute kidney injury during treatment. TDM was performed in 10 (15%) of 65 patients with pretreatment renal dysfunction.

Conclusion: In order to minimize the risk of nephrotoxicity and to get the appropriate response, it is recommended that physicians should have a conscious approach, clinical pharmacists should take an active role and hospital pharmacists should make arrangements in the orders of patients who do not have TDM.

A obesidade é uma condição médica que acomete grande parte da população mundial, sendo considerada um grave problema de saúde pública, devido ao seu alto risco para a saúde dos indivíduos, custo elevado para a sociedade e marginalização social. A Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), define a obesidade como uma doença crônica não transmissível (DCNT), de caráter multifatorial, caracterizada pela concentração excessiva de tecido adiposo, em um nível que pode ser prejudicial à saúde, aumentando assim, as chances de desenvolver outras comorbidades. Tratar sobre a obesidade é de suma importância para entender as demandas da saúde coletiva. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste estudo é identificar o perfil das hospitalizações por obesidade no Brasil, no ano de 2022. Estudo é do tipo transversal, descritivo, ecológico e quantitativo da prevalência das hospitalizações por obesidade, realizado com dados obtidos por meio do Sistema de Informações Hospitalares (SIH) do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (DATASUS). As variáveis selecionadas foram: internações, sexo, faixa etária (< 1 ano à ≥ 80 anos) e óbitos. A tabulação e análise descritiva dos dados foram realizadas por meio do programa Microsoft Office Excel (Microsoft©, 2013). No período de 2018 a 2022 ocorreram 49.592 internações por obesidade, sendo as maiores prevalências encontradas na região sul (48,8%), e 38,1% no Sudeste. 86% das internações foram do sexo feminino, enquanto que os homens representaram 13,2%. Com relação a faixa etária, verifica-se que 32,4% possuíam idade entre 30 a 39 anos. 46,7% dos óbitos ocorreram no Sudeste e 39,4% na região sul. Sendo assim, é extremamente importante um maior investimento em estratégias de prevenção e intervenção nutricional, com objetivo de reduzir o desenvolvimento da obesidade, principalmente entre os grupos que são mais susceptíveis a doença, dessa forma tais estratégias contribuiriam para a diminuição das frequentes internações ocasionadas pela obesidade e consequentemente promoveria mais qualidade de vida para a população brasileira.

Authors: Dr. V. Sornaganesh  , T. Karthika
Published: September 2023

The concept of Green Banking differs from traditional banking as it promotes sustainable development. Banks, being major implementers of technology, can lead the way in adopting green practices to aid in environmental protection. By innovating products and leveraging technology, banks and their customers can reduce their usage of resources like paper. Green banking aims to keep the world liveable without causing significant damage. In India, banks are playing a vital role in sustainable development by introducing various green banking practices. Adopting these practices can result in savings of energy, fuel, paper, and other natural resources. The rapid growth of the banking industry has increased the direct impact of banks on the environment, which is why they can play a significant role in ensuring environmentally sustainable and socially responsible investments in the economy. The study aims to motivate customers towards green banking services and focuses on how they have implemented green banking before and after COVID-19. Primary and secondary data were collected for this research.

Brontë’s The Professor: Colonial Traces
Authors: Dohal Gassim H.
Published: September 2023

The colonial history and 19th c. English literature have a unique connection. Indeed, writings of this period, particularly novels, contributed to the development of the ideologies that enabled imperialism to continue and persist; the interactions, presentations, and support of the authors varied and took different and complex aspects and forms. In cases, some texts directly address the topic of colonization while other texts hint at, refer to, and address indirectly some behavior and various colonial tendencies. This paper aims to analyze and address Charlotte Brontë's The Professor (written in 1846 and published in 1857); her first book that was published after her death. A contrapuntal reading expresses the narrative's overt and covert references to colonialism though it is initially perceived as a naïve love story. It is one of the unpopular novels that have tackled colonialism in a way or another due to the fact it was written during the peak of the colonial period. This article will trace the colonial elements addressed in the novel. Examining colonial traits in the novel, such as oppression, subjugation, exploitation, the assertion of racial and cultural superiority, etc., is the goal of the current study.

Negative impact from pandemic of COVID-19 suffered the whole world. Either its government or non-government sectors, all of these has been critically challenged by the pandemic. To understand the situation better, we had systematically reviewed existing academic articles from all around the world to discover what is the roles played by the NGOs in facing the pandemic and also the strategies used by them for community development during the pandemic. The existing articles with different research approaches had reported four categories of roles played by the NGOs including (1) a consultant on health awareness; (2) basic necessities provider; (3) training provider for NGOs in pandemic related skills; and (4) educator for COVID-19 awareness. As for the strategies, there are three strategies used in by the NGOs in facing the pandemic including: (1) an innovative technology approach; (2) collaboration for coordination; and (3) capital raising through funding. These roles and strategies slightly differ from existing roles of NGOs as it focusses more on managing the pandemic among the community as well. Nevertheless, further research is needed to explore more on how collaboration between government and NGOs can improved the community development.

This article examines the dynamics of religiosity in Kazakhstan, focusing on the impact of traditional and new forms of religiosity on sociocultural self-identification. The research utilizes a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis techniques.

Authors: Gjerazi Blerina , Skana Pranvera
Published: September 2023

Developments in technology, communication, and various spheres of economic and social life have brought about new approaches to public relations management. As companies continue to develop, there is a growing need not only for capital management, but also for reputation management. Over the last two decades, charity has been a vital element for corporate image consolidation and participation in addressing social needs in the Albanian society. However, recently there has been a shift in managing public relations and charity in corporations, leading to philanthropy as a more sustainable means of creating long-term strategies for reputation management. This paper aims to explore this evolution in the Albanian companies, focusing on their philanthropic activities. The study looks into the reasons why companies engage in such activities and the possible role the latter play in improving their reputation. For this study, we selected cases from five of the largest companies that utilize philanthropic activities as part of their PR strategies in Albania. In-depth data collection and analysis provides a comprehensive and contextualized understanding of the impact philanthropy has on reputation management. Additionally, the study employs a qualitative method, including interviews with industry professionals, academics, and media experts. The collected data shows that philanthropy has become a long-term and strategic element of corporate plans, influencing thus reputation management approaches that aim for continuous and sustainable relationships with all involved stakeholders.

Exploring the Impact of Strategic Leadership on the Sustainability of Technology-Centric Companies: An In-Depth Case Study from Colombia's Northern Coast
Authors: Fontalvo Heidy Rico , De La Puente Mario
Published: September 2023

This research examines the relationships among various elements of Strategic Leadership and Business Sustainability within tech-based firms located in the northern coastal region of Colombia, spanning the years 2015 to 2019. Initially, a correlation assessment was conducted to pinpoint variables that may be linked. Subsequently, a Dickey-Fuller analysis was employed to ascertain the presence of non-stationary variables and to determine if there was any causality between them, using a significance threshold of P ? 0.05. To substantiate the relationships among the scrutinized variables, a dispersion analysis was carried out, supplemented by a review of scholarly works that previously explored the subject matter. It emerged that solely the variables related to human capital and organizational contexts have an impact on the conduct of the social milieu, which acts as a catalyst for the growth of tech-based enterprises. This research is an enriching addition to existing literature, as it dissects the dynamics of tech-centered companies through a lens that transcends conventional narrative frameworks. This study was based on Heidy Rico doctorate research entitled “Incidence of strategic leadership on business sustainability of Technology-Based Companies in the Department of Atlántico”, Universidad Simon Bolivar, Colombia.

Determinants of Local Government Financial Performance in Indonesia
Authors: Zamzami Faiz , Rakhman Fuad
Published: September 2023

Regional autonomy is expected to promote financial performance and people’s welfare. This study investigates factors that affect local governments’ financial performance in Indonesia, where performance is defined as the ability to generate local revenues. To test our hypothesis, we used panel data regression analysis. From 2012 to 2019, this study collected 3,747 observations on municipal governments. The dependent variable is local government financial performance, while the independent variables include region size, capital spending, financial reporting quality, audit recommendations, and the horizon problem. We find that the size of the local government, financial reporting quality, and the follow-up on audit recommendations positively affect financial performance. Larger local governments have more resources to generate revenues. High financial reporting quality and accountability are supposed to improve public trust and increase their willingness to make contributions through local tax payments. Capital expenditure, on the other hand, is associated with lower financial performance. This study contributes to the literature on financial performance, especially in the public sector, by providing empirical evidence on factors affecting local government financial performance. This study provides insight to stakeholders by providing evidence on the role of size, capital spending, audit opinion, and follow-up of audit recommendations in accelerating the improvement of financial performance.
