Authors: Di Guardo Antonio , Balampanos Charalampos G , Gargano Luca , Giordano Domenico , Capalbo Alessandro , Persechino Flavia , Persechino Severino
Published: October 2024

Introduction: Cutaneous chondroid syringoma (CS) is a rare benign mixed skin tumor originating from sweat glands. Despite its rarity, accurate diagnosis and management are crucial due to its potential for malignant transformation. Objective: This study aims to provide comprehensive insights into the main features of cutaneous CS, encompassing its epidemiology, clinical presentation, and particularly, dermoscopic findings. Methods: A systematic review was conducted to identify relevant literature on CS up to November 2023. Data extraction included clinical and histopathological characteristics from case reports and small case series. Results: The systematic review identified 347 unique CS cases, predominantly benign. Clinical features included a predilection for the head and neck region, with variations in morphology observed. Dermoscopic patterns, although limited, revealed recurrent features aiding diagnosis. Malignant CS cases constituted a notable subset, exhibiting distinct clinical and histopathological features. Conclusion: Cutaneous chondroid syringoma presents with characteristic clinical and histopathological features, necessitating comprehensive diagnostic approaches. Dermoscopy emerges as a valuable tool, although further research is needed to establish definitive patterns. Treatment primarily involves wide local excision, with collaboration among clinicians essential for optimal management. Future studies are warranted to address existing knowledge gaps and enhance understanding of this rare skin neoplasm.

Published: October 2024

Introduction: Seborrheic dermatitis manifests as greasy, itchy lesions, commonly affecting sebum-rich areas like the scalp and face. Its prevalence is 11.6% in the general population, with various internal and environmental factors contributing to its development. Objectives: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of rosemary extract lotion in the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis in comparison with topical 2% ketoconazole lotion. Methods: This double-blind, randomized clinical trial included 42 patients with scalp seborrheic dermatitis, divided into rosemary and ketoconazole lotion groups. Both lotions were applied twice daily for 2 months. The severity of scalp dandruff was assessed using the Adherent Scalp Flaking Score. Itchiness of the scalp and quality of life were assessed using itchy quant and the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), respectively. Stata software was applied for statistical analysis. Results: The reduction in the Adherent Scalp Flaking Score score was statistically significant the ketoconazole group compared to the patients in the rosemary group (P value = 0.011). However, the reduction in itching score was statistically significant more in the rosemary group at the end of the first and second months in comparison to the ketoconazole group (P value < 0.001). The statistical analysis demonstrated no significant difference in the reduction of DLQI scores between the rosemary and ketoconazole groups at the end of 1 and 2 months after starting the treatment in both crud and adjustment with base-line score analysis.  Conclusion: Both rosemary and ketoconazole lotions were effective in treating scalp seborrheic dermatitis and decreasing the patient's DLQI score.

Published: October 2024

Introduction: Lichen planus pigmentosus (LPP) is an acquired pigmentary disorder affecting the dark-skinned population. There is a wide range of differentials with substantial clinicopathological overlap. Dermoscopy may contribute to the better characterization of this dermatosis. Objective: This study aimed to describe dermoscopic features of LPP with a histopathological correlation. Methods: LPP lesions of 23 patients were studied using a polarized dermoscopy, followed by histological evaluation. Results: The most common dermoscopic finding was dots and/or globules (n=23) in different patterns: speckled (n=4), dotted (n=2), reticular (n=4), diffuse (n=9), hem-like (n=1), and circular (n=2). Other patterns were exaggerated pseudo-reticular pattern (n=12), sparing of follicular openings (n=23), targetoid appearance (n=3), blue-white veil (n=5), rosettes (n=5), erythema (n=4), and telangiectasia (n=7). Histological findings included pigment incontinence (n=23), the severity being mild (n=8) and severe (n=15). We found a statistically significant association between the intensity of pigmentary incontinence on the histological examination and the presence of blotches in dermoscopy (p=0.046); and between blue-white veil and rosettes in flexural areas (p=0.01). Also, a statistical relationship was found between severe pigment density (reticulated and diffused patterns) and a short disease duration (p=0.016). Conclusion: We described LPP dermoscopic changes according to disease progression. We found that blotches are indicative of long-duration disease and could be specific dermoscopic features of LPP. We demonstrated that a blue-white veil associated with rosettes could be pathognomonic features of LPP inversus.

Authors: Paganelli Alessia , Contu Luca , Ficarelli Elena , Garbarino Federico , Motolese Alberico
Published: October 2024

Introduction: Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis predominantly affecting the anogenital area, with potential systemic implications. Objective: Our aim is to elucidate its clinical characteristics and management strategies. Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational study on adult patients with LS referred to our center between January 2022 and December 2023. Results: Forty-six adult subjects affected by LS were enrolled in the present study. The majority of patients presented with genital involvement, but a significant subset exhibited extragenital LS and concomitant immune-mediated disorders. Common symptoms included itching, soreness, and dyspareunia, with characteristic skin findings of erythema and atrophy. Topical corticosteroids were the mainstay of therapy, complemented by alternative treatments in refractory cases. Alternative therapeutic approaches, such as platelet rich plasma or adipose-tissue derived stromal/stem cell-based strategies, were effectively employed in refractory cases, in the absence of major adverse events. Conclusions: Our findings underscore the importance of alternative approaches in the management of LS and highlight the need for further research to elucidate its pathogenesis and optimize therapeutic interventions.

Authors: Tas Aygar Gamze , Çevirgen Cemil Bengü , Nuri Aydın Fevzi , Buran Volkan , Pelin Kartal Selda
Published: October 2024

Introduction: Rosacea, a chronic inflammatory disease primarily affecting the central part of the face, is a complex condition whose mechanisms are still not fully understood. However, research has indicated a positive correlation between two molecules: Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and Interleukin-6 (IL-6). The levels of HIF-1α in rosacea patients have yet to be assessed. Objectives: In this study, the aim was to assess the levels of HIF-1α and IL-6 in patients with rosacea in relation to both the severity of the disease and the primary and secondary clinical manifestations of the condition. Methods: The study included patients diagnosed with rosacea and sex-and age-matched healthy volunteers (N: 40, N: 40). Serum HIF-1α and IL-6 levels were quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: When compared to the control group, serum levels of HIF-1α and IL-6 were significantly elevated in the patient group. A positive correlation was found between the level of HIF-1α and the severity of the disease (r: 0.374, p: 0.017). Furthermore, a significant association was observed between the presence of telangiectasia, one of the primary symptoms, and HIF-1α (r: 2.401, p: 0.016). Conclusion: The significantly elevated levels of IL-6 and HIF-1α in patients with rosacea compared to the control group support the hypothesis that they play roles in the pathogenesis of the disease. The correlation of HIF-1α with the severity of the disease and its significant elevation in patients with telangiectasia suggest its potential involvement in the pathogenesis of the disease, particularly in the formation of telangiectasia.

Authors: Kelati Awatef , Halli Wassim , Chiheb Soumiya
Published: October 2024

Introduction: Few publications are available on eyebrow trichoscopy in patients with alopecia areata and frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA). Objective: We aimed to investigate the validity of using trichoscopy to examine the eyebrow involvement in patients with lichen planopilaris (LPP) and its variants. Methods: In this case control study, 109 patients with eyebrow involvement in LPP and FFA (cases) and with acquired hair disorders of the eyebrows (controls) were included. Results: Trichoscopy was highly specific and sensitive for the diagnosis of LPP and its variants, including FFA. Trichoscopic features significantly associated with LPP were peripilar scaling, peripilar pigmentation, broken hairs, peripilar white halos, diffuse empty follicles, and vellus hair. Localized peripilar erythema and empty follicles were significantly associated with the diffuse form of LPP and zigzag-type FFA. Yellow dots, dystrophic hairs, regrowth in different directions, and diffuse empty follicles were associated with LPP activity and FFA severity. Conclusions: Trichoscopy is a valid tool for evaluating eyebrow involvement in LPP. Thus, it could help increase the diagnostic accuracy and predict the prognosis of eyebrow hair loss at an early stage.

Authors: Karpenko Yurii , Mekhed Olha , Kyryienko Svitlana
Published: October 2024

Purpose. Adding new distribution and microphotographs of a rare taxon of the genus Cosmarium found in a small pond in Chernihiv Polesie. Review of the history of this taxon study in Ukraine and its taxonomy, infraspecific taxa characters are compared discussed.
Methodology. The new locality of C. taxichondriforme is situated at the border of the landscape reserve of national significance "Zamglai" that is one of the largest eutrophic swamps in the Chernihiv Polesie.
During the field research of the Zamglai bog complex, algal samples were collected from a small pond (2000 м2) situated along the road to Hrybova Rudnia village from route E95, at the distance of 1,8 km village and 0.8 km from the route. The samples were fixed with 4 % formalin for further study in laboratory conditions; pH and electrical conductivity of water were measured with a portable pH and conductivity meter. Microscopic examination of the samples was carried out using a light microscope equipped with a camera for taking microphotos. Identification manuals and monographs of the leading Ukrainian (Palamar-Mordvintseva, 1986, 2005) and European desmidiologists (Lenzenweger, 1999) were used for species identification. The iconotype provided in the original description of the newly recorded taxon (Eichler &Gutwiński, 1895) was used.
Scientific novelty. The fourth record in the Ukrainian desmidioflora and a new locality in Chernihiv Polesie of a rare taxon from the genus Cosmarium is documented. Previously it was discovered 26 years ago (Palamar-Mordvitseva & Shindanovina, 1998) in Soseske bog nearby Olyshivka village Chernihiv rayon and oblast. This is the first publication of Ukrainian cells microphotographs.
Conclusions. All records of this taxon in Ukraine are in Chernihiv Polesie. We hope this publication will provide good illustrative and informative basis for further findings of C. taxichondriforme in other regions of Ukraine. Sampling small water bodies should not be neglected.
ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ВИДОВОГО РІЗНОМАНІТТЯ ЦИКЛОПОІДНИХ КОПЕПОД ПРИРОДНО-ЗАПОВІДНИХ ОБ’ЄКТІВ УКРАЇНСЬКОГО ПОЛІССЯ
Authors: Гапонова Людмила
Published: October 2024

Мета роботи. Вивчення видового різноманіття циклопоідних копепод у водоймах природно-заповідних об’єктів з різним охоронним статусом та проведення порівняльного аналізу видового складу циклопід та їх комплексів в озерах в межах природно-заповідних фондів (ПЗФ) та за їх межами.
Методологія. Матеріал збирали протягом 2014–2021 років з березня по листопад у водоймах ПЗФ на території Київського та Чернігівського Полісся. Для порівняння, використовувався матеріал, який відбирали з озер міста Києва в 2013–2016 роках. Проби відбирали шляхом змиву з рослинності, вилученої з водойми та фільтрацією води за допомогою планктонної сітки. Видову ідентифікацію циклопід проводили на живих об’єктах, або готували препарати в гліцерині, використовуючи основні роботи по цій групі (Monchenko, 1974; Lee et al., 2005; Gaponova & Holynska, 2022). Для порівняння озер за видовим складом циклопід використовували ієрархічний кластерний аналіз на основі відсотку неузгодженості.
Наукова новизна. Наведено результати досліджень видового різноманіття циклопід водойм Київського та Чернігівського Полісся. Проведено порівняльний аналіз комплексів видів циклопід озер на території ПЗФ та м. Києва.
Висновки. Досліджені об'єкти ПЗФ характеризуються значним видовим різноманіттям циклопід – зареєстровано 27 із відомих для Українського Полісся 49 видів, та наявністю рідкісних видів (Eucyclops denticulatus, Paracyclops affinis та Paracyclops poppei).
В результаті порівняльного аналізу було виявлено, що озера об'єктів ПЗФ характеризуються більшим видовим різноманіттям циклопід у порівнянні з озерами м. Києва. Також відмінністю є незначна представленість (1–2 види) або відсутність у міських озерах видів, що належать до озерно-річкового та озерно-ставкового комплексів. 
Отже, наведені вище дані свідчать про те, що досліджені природо-охоронні об'єкти є цінними об'єктами природно-заповідного фонду і не зважаючи на те, що мають різний охоронний статус, забезпечують збереження видового різноманіття веслоногих ракоподібних, особливо рідкісних видів, а отже виступають резерватами біорізноманіття.

Authors: Dushechkina Nataliia , Moroz Vira , Yanitskys Volodymyr
Published: October 2024

The issue of environmental problems is particularly important today. The relevance is determined by the fact that global challenges arise every day, and global warming causes serious climate change and threatens the disappearance of the ecosystem.
The purpose of the article is to analyze current trends and consequences of global and regional climate change.
Methodology. A set of general scientific methods (analytical and synthetic hermeneutic, pragmatic, and generalization techniques) was employed to achieve the research goal and ensure the scientific reliability of the results.
Scientific novelty. The study reveals the main problems of nature management and changes in nature caused by anthropogenic activities. The importance of the population's counteraction to negative impacts on the planet’s ecosystem is emphasized. The study examines the main causes of climate change and substantiates the global risks associated with this phenomenon. The impact of climate change on the economic sector is analyzed. Special attention is paid to the terms “climate crisis” and “global climate change”. It is found that modern environmental problems include an increase in the number of wars, ocean pollution, global warming, resource shortages, and others. Each of these problems poses a serious threat to the development of any state. It is proved that in the context of political instability, Ukraine does not have the full potential to implement scientifically based balanced measures. The absence of an effective state policy on sustainable environmental management poses a threat to the economy and environment of Ukraine. It is necessary to find ways to solve the identified problems and consider promising areas for improving the factors that affect the environment and the environmental situation in general. Improving the environmental situation will allow Ukraine to rise to a new level in the global ranking.
The conclusions state that climate change threatens not only the economic and environmental security of the state, but also national security in general.

«Սակրալը» Միրչա Էլիադեի կրոնի ֆենոմենոլոգիայում / "The Sacred" in Mircea Eliade's Phenomenology of Religion
Authors: Abrahamyan Mariam A.
Published: October 2024

This paper is dedicated to the interpretation of the key concept of "the sacred," which is frequently encountered in modern religious studies. The fundamental concept is most thoroughly presented in the works of Mircea Eliade, who is considered one of the most studied phenomenologists of religion today. Eliade describes the sacred as a deep layer of reality, which is expressed as an absolute distinction from the worldly (profane). The sacred manifests itself through religious symbols, rituals, and myths, which connect humans to the cosmos and the divine. Eliade emphasizes that the sacred represents metaphysical and spiritual worlds that transcend human logic and experience and can only be revealed in special states or through unique experiences. The work discusses the differences between the sacred and the profane, their interaction in religious experience, and Eliade's influence on the study of religion. The article proposes the hypothesis that the sacred, over time, has not distanced itself or become alienated from modern humans but, by penetrating various spheres of human activity, has sometimes become even closer to them. The scientific novelty of the work is related to a deep analysis of the relationship between the sacred and the profane, their manifestations in the modern world, and the nature of religious experience.

Published: October 2024

As information technology develops, the utilization of the internet as a business platform has increased significantly, allowing companies to promote their products and services more widely and efficiently. This research explores the development of a mobile website for a homeware company in Batam, which currently relies on online platforms such as Shopee and Tokopedia. This dependency causes limitations in reaching customers optimally. Therefore, this research proposes the development of mobile web-based promotional media using the Waterfall method, which includes the stages of need analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. This method was chosen to ensure a systematic approach in designing and developing a responsive and appropriate website. Using Unified Modeling Language (UML) in system design possibly allows clear visualization and effective stakeholder communication. The implementation conducted by employing PHP, MySQL, and CodeIgniter framework resulted in a website which is expected to be able to fulfil the functional and non-functional needs of the company. The results show that developing this mobile web-based promotion system can potentially increase the company's market reach and operational efficiency as well as provide easy access for customers. This research provides an innovative model for similar companies to adopt digital technology to improve their business competitiveness.

The quality of irrigation water available to farmers has a significant impact on crop yield. Hence, it is need to better understand irrigation water quality. The present study mainly emphasizes the assessment of the suitability of 30 water samples from dug wells, bore wells and surface water bodies in Rajangaon Shenpunji and surrounding areas, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India. The groundwater sample datasets of post-monsoon 2013 season were collected. The water quality parameters, viz. sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), percent sodium (%Na), residual sodium carbonate (RSC), residual sodium bicarbonate (RSBC), Kelly’s ratio (KR), magnesium adsorption ratio (MAR), permeability index (PI) have been calculated. Based on these calculated parameter results, prepared spatial distribution maps in Arc GIS 10.3 software. These parameters were correlated with standard permissible/desirable limits for irrigation use for the prevailing crops. Based on these factors, most of the samples fall into the category of water suitable for irrigation. A few samples that exceeded permissible limits were discovered in various geological and anthropogenic activities near the water samples in the study area. A complete investigation of groundwater quality may be suitable remedial action. Artificial recharge techniques are developed to increase the chemical concentrations in groundwater or suitable crops are working to continue the present water quality.
Assessment of Bleaching Stress Vulnerability of Lakshadweep Islands using Google Earth Engine (GEE)
Authors: Mhalaskar Divya , Nandini Ray Chaudhury  , Chandra Mohan Bhatt
Published: October 2024

Coral reefs, among the Earth’s most diverse and valuable ecosystems, face unprecedented challenges due to climate change. Coral bleaching is a phenomenon wherein corals lose their symbiotic zooxanthellae owing to various stressors, leading to a whitening effect of the coral tissues. In recent decades, climate change has intensified coral bleaching events. Multiple stressors, including elevated Sea Surface Temperature (SST), extreme irradiance levels, and various biotic and abiotic factors trigger bleaching events. Coral bleaching is primarily driven by thermal stress caused by elevated SSTs. Climate change has worsened bleaching’s frequency and intensity. Global bleaching events are often linked to planetary ocean-atmospheric circulation processes such as El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD).
This study focused on assessing the vulnerability of coral reefs in the Lakshadweep region of India from 2016 to 2023 using National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Climate Data Record Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature (NOAA CDR OISST) daily data. GOOGLE EARTH ENGINE (GEE) is a cloud computing platform which is used to collect and generate the base data for this study. The vulnerability assessment utilized two bleaching indices: SST anomaly and Degree Heating Week (DHW). Analysis of DHW data reveals that 2020 experienced the highest SST anomaly residence time due to IOD event of 2019, as compared to 2016 and 2023 which are known El Niño years. All Lakshadweep islands exhibited vulnerability, although in varying degrees across different areas. Based on the magnitude, intensity, and frequency of bleaching stress, the islands are categorized into different categories of vulnerability. This study identifies Baliyapaniyam, Cheriyam-Kalpeni and Suhelipar reefs as very highly vulnerable reefs in Lakshadweep. This study highlights the urgent need for monitoring and management measures to mitigate the impacts of climate change on coral reef ecosystems using spatial vulnerability patterns.

MÜBADİLLERİN ‘SEVDA TÜRKÜLERİ’NDE MELANKOLİ İZLERİ
Authors: Esen Hüseyin Cem
Published: October 2024

Kök anlamı iktisadi bir temele dayanan, “malın değiş-tokuşu, bedeliyle değiştirilmesi” anlamına gelen mübadele, yirminci yüzyılın başlarında yaşanan trajediler sonucunda ödenen bedellerle birlikte insanı temel alan disiplinlerin çalışma konusu haline gelen bir olguya dönüşmüştür. Söz konusu trajedilere yol açan durumlardan birisi de güvenlik kaygısı gerekçe gösterilerek Yunanistan ve Türkiye arasında Lozan Kongresi sırasında karşılıklı anlaşmayla karara bağlanan 1923 tarihli zorunlu nüfus mübadelesidir. Bu mübadele sırasında bir buçuk milyona yakın Ortodoks Rum vatandaşı Türkiye’den Yunanistan’a, yaklaşık beş yüz bin Yunanlı Müslüman Türk ise Yunanistan’dan Türkiye’ye zorunlu göç etmiştir. Konunun trajik boyutu ise rıza ve kabul sorgulanmaksızın bir göçe zorlanmaları sonucu hayatlarının şekillendirildiği anılardan, aidiyet hissettikleri mekanlardan, kimliklerinin ve benliklerinin gömülü olduğu tüm kültürel bağlarından koparılan insanların deneyimlerinde saklıdır. Bourdieu’cu bir ifadeyle, mübadillerin zorunlu göç sürecinde ve sonrasındaki tüm deneyimleri, mübadele sonrasındaki yeni yaşantılarını sarmalayan sembolik sermayelerinin de bir parçası haline gelmiş, belirli metaforlar aracılığıyla oluşan semiyosfer üzerinden mübadillerin kültürel belleğinde kendine yer edinmiştir. Bu çalışmada, mübadillerin sembolik sermayelerinin kültürel belleğin önemli aktarım ve ifade araçlarından biri olan müzik kültürü içerisindeki dışavurumuna dikkat çekmek ve bu ifade biçiminde başvurulan metaforik anlamların melankoli kavramı etrafında tartışılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda birinci bölümde ait oldukları yerden ayrı düşerek “öteki” konumunda olan mübadillere temas edilmiş, yaşadıkları trajik deneyimlerden örnekler sunulmuştur. Ardından gelen ikinci bölümde ise, mübadillerin kültürel hafızası Bourdieu’nun sembolik sermaye kavramı üzerinden değerlendirilerek, ayrılık, özlem, gidip de dönmeme, kavuşamama, imkansız aşk temalarıyla ‘sevda türküleri’ndeki melankolik yansıması gözler önüne serilmiştir. Nihayetinde, belirli bir grubun deneyimlediği trajik olaylar, kültürel aktarım sırasında metaforik anlatımlarla toplumsal alana taşmakta, bu paylaşım sırasında imgelemdeki çağrışımlarla ortak algıya temas eden bir yapıya bürünmektedir.
