Authors: Rahman Dr. Md. Habibur , Hasnat Adnin , Mithen Md. Al Zabir Hassan
Published: December 2023

This study attempts to identify the application of indigenous knowledge of shrimp farmers that has passed through generations. In each step of the shrimp production process, such as pond preparation, seed selection, water management, disease management, feeding practices, and harvesting techniques, farmers use indigenous knowledge from one generation to another to gain sustainability. Knowledge is orally transmitted through imitation and demonstration. This study also examines the profitability of small-scale (land size less than 250 decimals or 7.5 bighas) shrimp farming in the Tala subdistrict of Satkhira district. Farmers try to minimize the cost of production and maximize profits. The primary data were collected through interviews with shrimp farmers and focus group discussions. The total number of respondents in the interviews was 35, with 10 farmers in a group discussion. The study found that shrimp farming is financially profitable (per bigha) in the study area. We obtain the mean net revenue per bigha as 1162.71 tk. The challenges in achieving the SDGs for the local community of shrimp farmers were also identified in our study. The challenges include poverty eradication, lack of quality education, gender inequality, and substantial environmental damage.

The use of electronic and digital media has been a growing concern worldwide in recent years. It is associated with some health-related problems, among children and young adults. However, few studies have examined this problem in Ondo city. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of electronic and digital media use on the health of adolescents. The study used an explanatory cross-sectional design. The population comprised 174 students who were randomly selected from 6 secondary schools. The schools were randomly selected from all senior secondary schools in Ondo city. The Electronic and Digital Media Questionnaire (EDMQ) was used. Two hypotheses were tested using an independent t-test and binary logistic regression. The result showed that female adolescents have almost 3 fold the male odds of having poor health outcomes after exposure to electronic and digital media (OR: 2.61; p<0.05). Whereas those who mostly liked mixed channels had 78 per cent lower odds (OR: 0.22; p<0.05) of having poor health outcomes following exposure to electronic and digital media. The study revealed that there is a significant effect of electronic and digital media use on the health of adolescents as well as a significant difference in gender difference regarding the effect of electronic and digital media use on the health of female and male adolescents in Ondo city.

A New Classification of the Parts of Speech in Modern Bulgarian. Taxonomic Terms and Principles
Authors:   PAISII HILENDARSKI UNIVERSITY OF PLOVDIV, Kutsarov Konstantin
Published: December 2023

In building my classification model, I have made several important theoretical up-dates and justifications. I take the term “word class” to be more accurate than “part of speech”, since the subject of discussion is the typological segmentation of lexemes. In this sense, the characteristics expressed by a word independently, without the need for context, acquire special significance in a taxonomy. Most prominently, these features are a word’s morphologically (inflectionally) conditioned grammatical meanings that make up the relevant morphological categories. This is the reason why in classifying variable lexemes in Bulgarian, I attribute a primary role to the morphological factor. I put forward the idea that a word class should include words with the same formative potential, expressing respectively the same grammemes and morphological categories. As a further condition for distinguishing an autonomous class, I propose a requirement that at least one semantically specific morphological category should be expressed. When establishing the taxonomic work base, I do not ignore the logical-semantic and the syntactic operational criteria. According to the former, words are defined as denotative or non-denotative, designators, attributes, attributes of attributes, substituting words, etc. According to the latter, lexemes belonging to one and the same part of speech must have identical syntactic functions. This factor takes on a leading role in the classification of invariable words.
Impersonal-predicative Words in Bulgarian and their Place among Word Classes
Authors:   ST. CYRIL AND ST. METHODIUS UNIVERSITY OF VELIKO TARNOVO, Sasheva Verka
Published: December 2023

The aim of the study is to answer the question whether impersonal-predicative words may be considered as an independent word class (part of speech). I present a summary of the views on the morphological status of these lexemes based on the study of the characteristics of impersonal-predicative words. In the search for arguments that their constitution as a separate part of speech is not linguistically founded, I consider the heterogeneous makeup of the category, the syntagmatic properties of these words, their (lack of) autonomy and lexical combinability with other language units. The communicative-pragmatic aspect (context and spoken language as factors) is also taken into consideration, as far as the impersonal-predicative nature and the semantics of these words is realized at the sentence and text level.
Some Aspects of the Voice in the Normative Grammar of the Bulgarian Language
Authors:   INSTITUTE FOR BULGARIAN LANGUAGE, BULGARIAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES, Aleksandrova Tatyana
Published: December 2023

The article presents the grammatical category voice of the verb within the framework of the normative grammar of the Bulgarian language. Two approaches to category research are contrasted: one is from content to form, and the other is from form to content. Briefly, the approach from content to form, as advocated in Bulgarian linguistics, is presented. The formal approach to the description of the voice is illustrated by tracing the techniques of syntactic accommodation and connotation - two main linguistic mechanisms that play a role in linking lexemes into grammatically correct constructions. The simple syntactic groups constituted by active and passive forms of two main types of verbs – transitive and intransitive – are studied.
Parts of Speech through a Cognitive Lens: Potential and Challenges
Authors:   PAISII HILENDARSKI UNIVERSITY OF PLOVDIV, Chakarova Yuliana
Published: December 2023

This paper seeks to answer the compelling questions outlined in the invitation to the 9th issue of the Forum on Bulgarian Grammar: Should parts of speech be viewed only as an instrument for description and classification, or can they be regarded as universal categories?; and Is it possible to find common criteria for defining word classes across languages, or are such criteria always language-specific? I look for the answers to these questions through briefly exploring and comparing the potential of various approaches to the study of parts of speech with a focus on the classification criteria adopted by these approaches. I pay special attention to the modern functionalist approaches of the past couple of decades and to the promising cognitive approach, in particular. Taking as a point of departure the premise that theories in this framework explore the connection between conceptual and language structures as well as between language and the human mind and drawing on the fact that the mechanisms governing the human mind are common for all human beings, I argue that the cognitive approach can provide a universal frame for the analysis and classification of word classes, which could then be employed as a basis for devising language-specific taxonomies. I believe that it is possible to give positive answers to all of the questions above, although each of them presupposes two opposite potential answers; the choice of a universal or a language-specific classification depends on the preferred theoretical framework and the goals of the particular scholar or school.

Published: December 2023

This study aimed to determine the negative impact of volunteer soybean plants on bean crop yield and the tolerance of bean genotypes to the herbicides ethoxysulfuron and halosulfuron. To determine the impact of volunteer soybean plants on bean crops, a field experiment was developed, with sub-sub-plots, and four replications. The main plots contained two bean cultivars, while the sub-plots received two soybean sowing times (0 and 7 days after the beans had been sown), while the sub-sub plots contained five soybean plant densities (0, 5, 10, 20, and 40 plants m-2). The tolerance of the bean genotypes was evaluated with two experiments in a completely randomized design with three replications. They were arranged in a 28 x 3 factorial design (bean genotypes x herbicide doses). Each soybean plant per m2 reduced bean crop yield by 4%. The recommended doses of ethoxysulfuorn and halosulfuorn resulted in tolerance levels above 70% for all the studied bean genotypes.
Highlights:

The herbicides ethoxysulfuron and halosulfuron, are registered in Brazil for the control of volunteer soybean plants in bean crops.
To date, the impact generated by volunteer soybean plants competing with bean plants is unknown.
The tolerance of 28 bean cultivars to herbicides ethoxysulfuron and halosulfuron was determined using dose label and double the dose.
The impact of volunteer soybean plants on bean crops was determined using two bean cultivars and two soybean sowing times.
The bean genotypes displayed a highly variable response to the herbicides ethoxysulfuron and halosulfuron; however, when the label recommended dose of the herbicides was used, the tolerance levels observed were over 70%.
Each soybean plant is capable of causing a 4% reduction in bean plant grain yield, regardless of the establishment time of the soybean plants or the bean genotype.

Published: December 2023

As we concentrate on addressing the challenges in responsible beauty product recommendation, particularly when it involves comparing the product’s color with a person’s skin tone, similar as for foundation and robe p conditions. The features uprooted using the prints from illuminated terrain can be largely deceiving or indeed be inharmonious to be compared with the product attributes. Hence bad illumination condition can oppressively degrade quality of the recommendation. We introduce a machine learning frame for illumination assessment which classifies images into having moreover good or bad illumination condition. We also make an automatic stoner guidance tool which informs a stoner holding their camera if their illumination condition is good or bad. This way, the stoner is handed with rapid-fire feedback and can interactively control how the print is taken for their recommendation. Only a many studies are devoted to this problem, substantially due to the lack of dataset that's large, labeled, and different both in terms of skin tones and light patterns. Lack of similar dataset leads to neglecting skin tone diversity. Thus, we begin by constructing a different synthetic dataset that simulates colorful skin tones and light patterns in addition to a being facial image dataset. Next, we train a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for illumination assessment that outperforms the being results using the synthetic dataset. Eventually, we dissect how the work improves the shade recommendation for colorful foundation products.

Published: December 2023

The serial-peripheral interface (SPI) protocol also called asynchronous serial interface specification is used for communication between single master and single/multiple slaves. With the increase in number of slaves causing high complexity of circuit creates a demand in self-test ability feature for SPI module in order to test for fault free circuits. Built-In-Self-Test (BIST) in the answer for self-test in circuits as well as it helps in reduction of maintenance and testing cost. Design of BIST embedded SPI module with single master and single slave configuration has been introduced in these paper, Here 8-bit is transferred across the module, Where the Circuit under Test (CUT) is being Self-Tested with BIST feature for its correctness. This SPI module is designed using Verilog hardware description language(HDL) using EDA playground platform for application like applications specific integrated circuit (ASIC) or system on chip (SOC). SPI stands for the Serial Peripheral Interface. It is a serial communication protocol that is used to connect low-speed devices. It was developed by Motorola in the mid-1980 for inter-chip communication. It is commonly used for communication with flash memory, sensors, real-time clock (RTC), analog-to-digital converters, and more. It is a full-duplex synchronous serial communication, which means that data can be simultaneously transmitted from both directions. The main advantage of the SPI is to transfer the data without any interruption. Many bits can be sent or received at a time in this protocol. In this protocol, devices are communicated in the master-slave relationship. The master device controls the slave device, and the slave device takes the instruction from the master device. The simplest configuration of the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is a combination of a single slave and a single master. But, one master device can control multiple slave devices

Objective: To assess CHADVASC score in predicting in-hospital mortality in patients presenting to the hospital with ST segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction undergoing primary PCI.
Study Design: Analytical Cross-sectional study.
Place and Duration of Study: Armed Forces Institute of Cardiology/National Institute of Heart Diseases, Rawalpindi,Pakistan, from Mar 2023 to Apr 2023.
Methodology: A total of 198 patients were enrolled. Their CHADVASC scores were recorded and were divided into Group-A (score of 0-1), B (score 2-3) and C (score 4 and above). Sampling was done by using non-probability consecutive sampling. A brief clinical history including duration of symptoms, comorbid, duration of hospital stay and survivability status were recorded. Chi-square and Independent sample t-test were applied to find the association between In-hospital mortality and CHADVASC score, duration of hospital stay as well as comorbids. p-value <0.05 was taken as significant
Results: Among study participants, majority were males 133(67.2%). Mean age of patients was 60.86±9.02 years. In-hospital mortality was noted in 13(6.56%) patients. There was a significant association between CHADVASC score and mortality (p<0.001). It was also noted that mortality increased with prolonged duration of stay in hospital (p=0.03). Another observation noted was that males presented at an earlier age (59.45±9.79 years) than females (63.63±6.54 years).Conclusion: CHADVASC score like the TIMI score and GRACE score can be used to stratify risk in patients presenting with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). It is a fairly easy to use test at bed side and can help clinicians decide further treatment strategies and how .............

Entre sequías y huracanes en Cuba. Burriel, un Acueducto para Matanzas (1800-1872)
Authors: Atencia Gil Esther
Published: December 2023

La sequía, como amenaza de impacto lento asociada a riesgos y desastres, es un fenómeno extremo de difícil cuantificación y complicada delimitación temporal cuyos efectos destructivos han incidido directamente en el desarrollo socioeconómico del país o región afectados. Por ello, la respuesta de la sociedad no ha sido siempre la misma ni se han podido implementar medidas de forma inmediata.En el presente estudio, teniendo en consideración la globalidad del fenómeno en otras zonas, se analizan tres episodios de sequía más o menos intensos ocurridos en Cuba durante la primera mitad del siglo XIX, detallando sus efectos concretos en la provincia de Matanzas. Como medidas adoptadas, destacan las tradicionales “rogativas pro pluvia” y los proyectos de canalización de aguas para el abastecimiento de la ciudad que culminaron con la inauguración del Acueducto Burriel en 1872, conocido como Acueducto de Matanzas, con gran impacto en la sociedad matancera del momento.
EUROPEAN UNION LAW IN TRANSLATION: CORE PRINCIPLES AND USEFUL TOOLS FOR UNDERGRADUATE TRANSLATION COURSES
Authors:   NOVA University Lisbon / CETAPS, Neves Marco
Published: December 2023

The translation of European Union (EU) law can be seen as a specific case of international law translation and thus relevant only to legal translators. The author argues that concepts related to EU law and tools developed by the EU to support translators should be taught as early as possible to all undergraduate students of translation. This is due to two specificities of European law: it covers a great range of different areas, many of them of a technical nature, thus being useful to many (if not all) translators outside the legal field; and it is mentioned in many non-legal texts, from catalogues to journalistic texts. Therefore, professional translators are bound to find references to EU law throughout their careers and should know how to deal with them and how to avoid common pitfalls. Furthermore, tools created by the European Union — terminology tools, publicly available translation memories, and provision of legislation in multilingual format — are very useful to any translator and knowing how to use them is a skill essential to translation professionals. This study will make suggestions for teaching principles, tools and common sources of translation errors related to EU law to students who do not have any form of legal training.

Não úng thuỷ và nhiễm trùng sơ sinh là thách thức đối với ngành y tế của các quốc gia trên thế giới, tỷ lệ trẻ mắc não úng thuỷ và nhiễm trùng sơ sinh ở các nước thu nhập thấp và trung bình là cao hơn nhiều lần so với các nước phát triển, đặc biệt là khu vực châu Phi và Đông Nam Á trong đó có Việt Nam. Để xác định một số đặc điểm của não úng thuỷ và nhiễm trùng sơ sinh ở trẻ, chúng tôi đã tiến hành nghiên cứu trên 35 trẻ sơ sinh mắc não úng thuỷ và 123 trẻ nhiễm trùng sơ sinh, từ 10/2019 đến 12/2020 tại bệnh viện Nhi trung ương. Kết quả cho thấy, ở cả hai nhóm bệnh có một số đặc điểm giống nhau: Tỷ lệ bé trai mắc bệnh cao hơn bé gái, phân bố địa lý ở nông thôn và miền núi cao hơn thành phố, kháng sinh điều trị đều sử dụng phối hợp 2 và 3 loại. Ở nhóm não úng thuỷ, tỷ lệ trẻ sinh non chiếm 42,9% và có tỷ lệ tử vong ca bệnh là 2,9%. Ở trẻ nhiễm trùng sơ sinh, tỷ lệ trẻ sinh đủ tháng (63,4%) cao hơn so với trẻ sinh non (33,3%), nuôi cấy máu dương tính chiếm 27,1%, chủ yếu là vi khuẩn Klebsiella pneumoniae và tỷ lệ tử vong ca bệnh là 6,5%.

Published: December 2023

Deformed clan culture is the influential factor of collective corruption, group fighting, clan evil force and so on. Moreover, it may also cause problems such as destroying rural autonomy, hindering criminal investigation, illegal criminal private settlement criminal, etc. However, clan culture has two sides, which can produce moral introduction, condense criminal struggle consciousness, improve governance standard system and so on. Historical research has found that the governance effects produced by clan culture are strongly correlated with the state's treatment of clans. Clan culture may have a two way affects both in crime and crime governance, and it needs to be adjusted in the context of modern rule of law. Clan culture should be guided towards benign development, avoiding cultural conflict and promoting benign interaction between State law, State subjects and clan norms and organizations, so as to optimize the effectiveness of the governance of clan-based crime.
