Effect of chromium additions on the structure and physical properties of manganese-based films
Authors: Bashev V. F. , Kushnerov O. I. , Kutseva N. A. , Ryabtsev S. I.
Published: May 2022

The formation of metastable structures of manganese films with chromium additions obtained by the method of modernized three-electrode ion-plasma sputtering is studied. It is shown that the deposition of pure manganese leads to the formation of nanocrystalline β-Mn and MnO oxide. Heating in vacuum above 700 K leads to the film oxidation. The addition of Cr to the composition of the films prevents the formation of MnO oxide. It is shown that the activation energy of structural changes decreases with an increase in the energy of deposited atoms for pure manganese and MnCr films. Magnetization hysteresis is observed only in freshly sprayed Mn and MnCr films.

Etnodizajn and Folkstar Souvenirs: Polish Experiences in Uses of “Folk Art” in the 21st Century
Authors: Klekot Ewa
Published: May 2022

The present paper offers a critical reflection on folk inspirations in Polish design in the early 21st century. It discusses the question of folk as an artistic form, pointing to conceptualizations of folk style and its formal qualities within the field of modern artistic production to which design and craft practices belong. It also touches on the role of the rural actors involved in the processes of the construction of folklore and their attitude towards folk conceived as esthetics, artistic form, and style. For rural producers, folk style was a question of conscious choice, sometimes motivated by conformism and sometimes by a deliberate effort to contribute to local/class/national self-presentation, very often in contradiction to the individual's own taste and that of their peers. The paper then examines the involvement of Polish folk-inspired design (etnodizajn) in the early 21st century with national self-presentation, as well as the various folk (lore)-inspired design strategies followed by contemporary Polish designers. It concludes with the observation that 21st-century design practices drawing on folkloric inspiration are part of a long sequence of cultural appropriations, where appropriation can mean both the alienating inequality experienced by the rural manufacturers of folk, as well as a necessary condition for the understanding of alterity by both sides in the cultural exchange.
Introduction
Authors: Jamal Thornton Brendan , Hoenes del Pinal Eric
Published: May 2022

Religious studies is an interdisciplinary field encompassing a range of research methods and theoretical areas of analysis. Interest in ethnographic methodology has grown of late as scholars of religion with varying specialties and backgrounds have turned towards anthropology for inspiration on how best to analyze and interpret people’s variegated religious lives in the contemporary world. The special issue “Critical Terms for the Ethnography of Religion” considers eight key terms that are central to the conceptual grammar of the ethnographic method in order to highlight the opportunities and challenges this form of research offers the study of “lived religion”. By bringing together established scholars of religion who take ethnographic methodology seriously in their work, this special issue offers readers an opportunity to think with colleagues from across the discipline about what is at stake in their approach to studying, analyzing and writing about religion from an ethnographic perspective.
Data
Authors: Hoenes del Pinal Eric
Published: May 2022

Ethnographic research involves coming to know a society’s culture and religion in several different ways both quantitative and qualitative. Interviewing, field recordings, systematic observation and the researcher’s own (inter-)subjective experiences are some of the most common methods of ethnographic data collection, but integrating these multiple methods is no mean task. Every method presents unique possibilities and problems for answering our research questions. A method that at first seems to be revealing can end up having limited applicability; and conversely, others that may at first blush seem shallow can end up leading to significant insights. This article argues for the necessity of critically assessing how data is produced and suggests that data emerges when the researcher learns how to view their experiences and observations in new ways.
Interlocutors
Authors: Leve Lauren
Published: May 2022

A significant challenge for ethnographers since the 1980s has been how to name their relationships to the people with whom and about whom they produce knowledge. Following critiques of how the term “informant” encodes and reproduces colonial power dynamics, ethnographers have sought alternative language to describe fieldwork-based relations. This article examines one of the most commonly used terms—“interlocutor”—and considers the implications of adopting a word that emphasizes voice and speech over embodied participation. “Interlocutor” is appealing to contemporary scholars because it signals respect for the people we work with using a vocabulary that reflects modern secular ideologies. Yet, research that advances decolonial goals may depend less on transforming styles of ethnographic representation than on opening the ethnographer and ethnographic inquiry to other ways of knowing and being, via embodied experience and relational practices. When ethnographers of religion engage the people we work with primarily as voices we set ourselves up for misunderstanding and miss opportunities to trouble imperial structures of knowledge.
Ethics
Authors: Taylor Christopher B
Published: May 2022

Islamic scriptures teach that charity is best given in secret. If it is a secret, however, this poses a methodological problem for the ethnographer. How do we study it? Answering this question has led me to some surprising insights for fieldwork in religion. My recent research investigated five Islamic charity organizations operating in north India. As an anthropologist, I now see “ethics” not only as a critical component of culture, or what we take as the object of our study as ethnographers, but I argue that ethics are also a tool that enables our work. Our ethics, and the professional processes that encode them like the Institutional Review Board (IRB), are as much an indispensable tool for the field as the notebooks, pens and microphones we carry.

Published: May 2022

Bene oil (pistacia atlantica), as a plant source, is rich in phenolic and tocopherol compounds and has significant antioxidant, therapeutic and antimicrobial effects. Encapsulation of hydrophobic compounds in liposome system is an ideal solution for protecting them against destruction during storage. An important advantage of liposomes is the encapsulation of hydrophilic, hydrophobic and amphiphilic compounds by using natural phospholipids, such as lecithin, with beneficial effects. The aim of this study is to encapsulate the bene kernel oil in the form of microliposomes. For this purpose, the effect of composition of liposomes based on lecithin and cholesterol was studied using the Mozafari method. Liposomes are prepared using lecithin and cholesterol in the ratios of 60:0, 50:10, 40:20 and 30:30. Particle size, size distribution, zeta potential and encapsulation efficiency were characterised. According to the result, the size of liposomes was dependent on their composition, but the wasaffected significantly affected by adding cholesterol (P < 0.05). Average diameter of the particles was between 4 and 9 µm. Liposome with a ratio of 40:20 had the smallest size. By applying cholesterol, zeta potential increased from 16.4 mV to 32.39 mV, which indicates electrostatic stability of liposomes. In general, with encapsulation efficiency of 84.33%, the ratio of 40:20 is considered as an ideal concentration in the formulation of microliposomes. Based on the results, bene oil-loaded liposomes with a lecithin: cholesterol formulation ratio of :as 40:20 was chosen as an optimal formulation because of its smaller particle size, higher zeta potential and suitable stability, which can be used in trapping, delivering and releasing hydrophilic, adipose-friendly and amphiphilic compounds (dual-friendly).

Published: May 2022

Bone allografts are commonly used for surgical treatment of cancer patients. However, such complications as violation of allograft fusion, its lysis and fractures, infection lead to additional research in this field of medicine. Objective. To study changes in biochemical osteogenesis markers under the action of cytostatics on the process of incorporation of bone allografts. Methods. The work was performed on 20 male white rats (age at the beginning of the experiment 5–6 months). All animals have a perforated defect in the distal metaphysis of the femur filled with bone allograft (diameter 2 mm, height 3 mm), γ-radiation sterilized (Control-1 and Experiment-1) or saturation of the antibiotics sterilized (Control-2 and Experiment-2). In groups «Control» 14 days after implantation intraperitoneally injected 2.0–2.4 ml of 0.9 % sodium chloride solution, in the groups «Experiment» — cisplatin at a dose of 2.5 mg/ kgonce. 30 days after surgery, blood glycoproteins, total protein, Ca, chondroitin sulfates, acidic and alkaline phosphatase activity were evaluated. The index of mineralization (ratio of alkaline to acid phosphatases), degree is analyzed mineralization (ratio of calcium to protein). Results. In the experimental groups, compared with the control, a significant decrease in total protein and values was determined: total calcium, which indicates the suppression of processes mineralization during remodeling of bone tissue of the recipient and allograft. The highest indicators of activity acid phosphatase were recorded in groups Experiment-1 and Experiment-2, reflecting the predominance of resorption over bone formation. The degree of mineralization in the experimental groups was higher than in the control, and the mineralization index was significantly smaller. Conclusions. The detected changes in the values of biochemical markers of bone metabolism reflect the negative effect of cisplatin on osteogenesis under the conditions of allograft implantation, which leads to the lack of their fusion with the recipient bone.

Published: May 2022

Long existing hip arthritis is accompanied by the development ofpain and contractures that cause contractile muscle spasm, reductionin the length of the adductor muscles and flexors of the thigh,relative overstretching of the abductor muscles, which over timeleads to changes in their structure. The result is weakness of thepelvic muscles, the clinical manifestation of which is a violationof postural balance — lameness, torso tilts while walking, changesin pelvic position, etc. Objective. To determine the effect of thehip joint adduction contracture on the ability to maintain balancestanding position with mathematical model. Methods: mathematicalmodel is worked out that represents the pelvis with the thigh andthe vectors of action of the adductor and abductor muscles. Themuscular effort required to maintain body balance during one-legstanding was normal and the hip position was set at 5° and 10°.Calculations were performed for patients weighing 70; 100; 120 kg.Results. It is determined that at the adduction contracture in 5°m. gracilis, m. add magnus, m. piriformis are not able to performthe functions of maintaining body balance due to the necessity todevelop greater efforts than their maximum possible, even at theminimal patient's weight. If the patient's weight exceeds 120 kg, thenalmost the entire muscular system of stabilization of the thigh worksbeyond its capabilities. The adduction contracture of 10° increasesthe required force of the thigh stabilizer muscles. The absolute valuesshowed an increase in their strength indicators. Conclusions.The adduction contracture of the hip joint causes a change in thebiomechanical conditions of the pelvic muscles due to changes inthe angles of action of the abductor muscles, reducing the effectivenessof their work to stabilize the pelvis. As the angle of adductioncontracture increases, there is a tendency for the pelvic musclesto work effectively. An additional factor that negatively affects thisindicator is the patient's overweight.
Infective Endocarditis with Multiple Valvar Vegetation in Uncorrected Tetralogy f Fallot: A Case Report of Rare Condition
Authors: Cool Charlotte Johanna , Fattima Eliza Techa , Febrianora Mega , Saboe Aninka
Published: May 2022

Objective: To describe a case of an adult patient with uncorrected Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) who suffered from Infective Endocarditis (IE) that involved the tricuspid and aortic valves. Methods: On October 2019, a-twenty-year-old male with uncorrected TOF was admitted to the emergency department of Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital with a chief complaint of fever. The echocardiography showed the presence of vegetation on the tricuspid valve and aortic valve. The patient was given empirical antibiotics therapy for IE treatment. The serial blood cultures did not yield any organism growth and the transthoracic echocardiography evaluation showed healed vegetation after 21 days of antibiotics treatment. Results: A high turbulence in small VSD and valvular stenosis, as found in TOF, can injure the endocardial surface. While bacterial adherence to the injured endocardial surface can cause IE, no specific criteria available for diagnosing IE in congenital heart disease (CHD) patients compared to other population. In CHD patients, it is necessary to consider the diagnosis of IE presenting with signs of infection or fever. Our patient was known to have uncorrected TOF and was admitted to the hospital with a chief complaint of fever. The uncorrected TOF was complicated by an unusual form of aggressive vegetation involving multiple valves. Conclusion: The incidence of IE in uncorrected TOF is around 4%. Patient is advised to receive a corrective surgery for the cardiac anomaly. Surgical repair of CHD with no residual lesion reduces the risk of IE.

Published: May 2022

Objective: To describe a case of a Cardio-Cerebral Infarction (CCI) male patient presented with a history of chest pain recognized using electrocardiography, brain computed tomography, and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). Methods: A 69 years old man came with history of chest pain since 13 hours before to the emergency room. Electrocardiography, brain computed tomography, and PCI were performed, leading to the diagnosis of CCI. Results: The electrocardiography showed ST Elevation in Antero-lateral, atrial fibrillation and left-sided hemipharesis, which occurred on the second day. Brain computed tomography demonstrated acute infarct stroke, while the Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) showed one vessel disease with severe stenosis in LAD and implanted stent in proximal-mid LAD. Therapy prescribed was providing antiplatelet and anticoagulation. Discussion: Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) and Acute Infarct Stroke (AIS) have a narrow therapeutic time-window and a delayed intervention may results in morbidity and death. Antiplatelet and anticoagulant used in PCI for AMI increase the risk for hemorrhagic, and AIS with thrombolytic increase the risk of cardiac wall rupture in AMI. Direct Oral Anticoagulant (DOAC) treatment should reduce ischaemia and lower bleeding. The optimal time point to start anticoagulant treatment might be between 4-14 days after the onset of stroke. Duration of post-PCI triple therapy should be minimized depending on bleeding and risks of ischemia.

Authors: Randhawa Sukhman , Bhattacharya Jayatee
Published: May 2022

The analytical study of the secondary works on Bharati Mukherjee reveals the in depth study of her works majorly with reference to the alienation or strangeness of the protagonist. Whereas, this article aims to examine the operation of the marital relationships and the problems associated
with the interpersonal relationships, which has a consequent effect on the lives of the protagonist within the fictional framework. The research also makes an attempt to discuss the various expectations and roles imposed on women characters not only from the outside sources but from within
as well, which results in their subsequent disillusionment. The research further deals with the journey of the neurotic mental state of the selected protagonists portrayed through their frustrations and baffled desires, resulting in the final redemption, which leads to the final marital discord.
Many psychologists have made an in-depth study of the interpersonal relationship of husband and wife, moving in and out of their marital relationship. While on the contrary, this article focuses to explore the factors, which affects the adjustments and maladjustments in a marriage, which results
in harmonious or disharmonious relationships. The article also aims to draw a parallel between the marriage institute of western culture where theory like 'complementary mate selection' is brought in the scenario, whereas, in Indian culture the marriage is still based on 'arranged' basis with
elaborated traditional rites. It exposes the contemporary social structure of the modern world, where the need to stay bound in marriage has lost its importance to the happiness of an individual. The overall objective of the article is to outline the cause of the plight of women characters,
the expectation and roles assigned to them, the factors involved which affects the harmonious marital relationship and a journey to self-redemption within the fictional framework of Bharati Mukherjee.

RESUMO A contaminação da água devido ao descarte de poluentes emergentes como antibióticos, pesticidas, aditivos alimentares entre outros poluentes orgânicos tem efeitos adversos na saúde humana e é um problema ambiental mundial que necessita de ação imediata. A tecnologia de membrana é uma alternativa eficaz e atraente para esse tratamento, por oferecer alta eficiência de separação, baixo consumo de energia, e maior flexibilidade operacional. Além disso, uma grande atenção tem sido concedida à nanotecnologia, a qual, permite a produção de materiais com propriedades como, hidrofilicidade, permeabilidade e resistência. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo o preparo e caracterização de membranas poliméricas de matriz mista. Estas foram preparadas pela técnica de inversão de fases, utilizando como precursor polimérico o copolímero de estireno e acrilonitrila (SAN), com a adição de argila organofílica (0, 1,5 e 3,0% (m/m)) e como solvente N-metil-2-pirrolidona (NMP). A partir da análise dos resultados de MEV constatou-se que as membranas apresentaram uma estrutura assimétrica, compostas por uma fina camada seletiva no topo, macrovazios na forma de finger-like que se prolongam através da membrana, com poucos ou nenhum defeito na superfície. Já ao observar-se o efeito da adição de argila, percebeu-se que o mesmo causou um aparente aumento na camada seletiva e a diminuição na camada porosa. Ademais, na adição da argila para concentração de 3% percebeu-se uma maior formação de defeitos aparentes, tornando-a quebradiça. Baseado nos resultados da análise de BJH concluiu-se que as membranas apresentaram uma vasta distribuição de poros na faixa de meso, macro ou microporos.

Abstract Red pitaya (Hylocereus costaricensis) is a promising species, with high cultivation potential due to the organoleptic and functional qualities of its fruits. However, irrigation water salinity can affect the crop yield. Therefore, materials rich in organic substances can minimize the damage caused by excess salts in soil and/or water. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of organic matter sources as attenuators of salt stress on the production and biochemical responses of red pitaya seedlings. A completely randomized design in 4 × 5 factorial scheme, with five sources of organic matter (humus, sheep manure, biofertilizer, organic compost and sand + soil) and four salinities (0.6, 2.6, 4.6 and 6.6 dS m-1) with four replicates and two plants per plot was used. The shoot length, root length, cladode diameter, number of cladodes, number of sprotus, root volume, shoot dry mass, root dry mass and total dry mass, root and shoot dry mass ratio, chlorophyll a, b and total, amino acids and soluble sugars were evaluated at 120 days after the treatments began to be applied. Red pitaya is moderately tolerant to salinity (ECw from 4.0 to 6.0 dS m-1). Organic compost and sheep manure attenuate the harmful effects of salinity on red pitaya seedlings. Under salt stress conditions, red pitaya plants increase their levels of proline, amino acids and total sugars.

Abstract Chrozophora tinctoria (L.) A.Juss. is herbaceous, monecious annual plant used traditionally to cure gastrointestinal disorders. The present study was carried out to find the bioactive compounds by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, the acetylcholinesterase inhibitory potential acute toxicity, and emetic activity present in the ethyl acetate fraction of Chrozophora tinctoria (EAFCT) and dichloromethane fraction of Chrozophora tinctoria (DCMFCT). The compounds detected in both fractions were mostly fatty acids, with about seven compounds in EAFCT and 10 in DCMFCT. These included pharmacologically active compounds such as imipramine, used to treat depression, or hexadecanoic acid methyl ester, an antioxidant, nematicide, pesticide, hypocholesterolemic, 9,12,15-Octadecatrienoic acid, ethyl ester, (Z,Z,Z)- is used as a cancer preventive, antiarthritic, antihistaminic, hepatoprotective, insectifuge, nematicide, Pentadecanoic acid, 14-methyl-, methyl ester have antifungal, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, 10-Octadecanoic acid, methyl ester have the property to decrease blood cholesterol, Antioxidant and antimicrobial, 1-Eicosanol is used as an antibacterial, 1-Hexadecene has antibacterial, antioxidant, and antifungal activities. Both DCMFCT and EAFCT fractions inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity with IC50 values of 10 µg and 130 µg, respectively. Both the fractions were found to be toxic in a dose-dependent manner, inducing emesis at 0.5g onward and lethargy and mortality from 3–5 g upwards. Both the fractions combined with distilled water showed highly emetic activity. The significant increase in the number of vomits was shown by EAFCT plus distilled water which are 7.50±1.29, 7.25±3.10, and 11.75±2.22 number of vomits at 1g, 2g, and 3g/kg concentration respectively, while DCMFCT plus distilled water showed 5.25±2.22, 7.50±2.52 and 10.25±2.22 number of vomits at 1g, 2, and 3g/kg correspondingly. The antiemetic standard drug metoclopramide has a higher impact against the emesis induced by both the fractions than dimenhydrinate. Metoclopramide decreases the number of vomits caused by EAFCT to 1.00±0.00, 2.00±0.00, 4.00±1.00 at 1g, 2, and 3g/kg sequentially, while dimenhydrinate decreases the number of vomits to 1.33±0.58, 2.33±1.15, 4.33±0.58 at 1g, 2, and 3g respectively. In the same way, Metochloprimide decreases the number of emesis caused by DcmCt from 5.25±2.22, 7.50±2.52, 10.25±2.22 to 1.33±0.58, 2.33±1.1, 4.33±0.58 at 1g, 2, and 3g/kg concentrations. The present study is the first documented report that scientifically validates the folkloric use of Chrozophora tinctoria as an emetic agent.
Duas críticas às normativas dos Núcleos de Apoio à Saúde da Família
Authors: Tesser Charles Dalcanale
Published: May 2022

Resumo Estudos empíricos identificaram insuficiências e precariedades na atuação de apoio matricial dos Núcleos de Apoio à Saúde da Família. Este artigo, baseado em experiências assistemáticas diversas e literatura selecionada, defende duas teses interligadas que criticam aspectos das normativas federais originais para atuação desses Núcleos: uma concepção − implícita nas normativas − de atenção primária à saúde como cenário de ações situadas apenas em campos de competência compartilháveis, por um lado; e a opção de inserção desses Núcleos relativamente fora do fluxo assistencial dos usuários, por outro. Argumenta-se que ambas, provavelmente, geraram efeitos adversos envolvidos nos problemas de atuação desses Núcleos: contribuíram para a superestimação dos seus resultados esperados, para o seu subaproveitamento e subdesenvolvimento institucional e para a precarização da sua legitimidade, dificultada com a Política Nacional de Atenção Básica de 2017 e atingida gravemente com o desfinanciamento federal em 2019. Defende-se o aperfeiçoamento dos Núcleos de Apoio à Saúde da Família e sugere-se sua inserção no fluxo assistencial entre a atenção primária à saúde e a atenção secundária, para reduzir o isolamento entre ambas e aperfeiçoar a coordenação personalizada do cuidado, facilitar a legitimidade dos ‘matriciadores’, o apoio matricial e a educação permanente dos profissionais.

Hunting the Hunter: Fowling and Interpretive Entrapment in Upon Appleton House
Authors: Prawdzik Brendan
Published: May 2022

Focusing on Upon Appleton House, this article seeks to illumine Marvell’s communication to audiences (or to the idea of audience) and thereby to find an embodied authenticity.  Examining the relationship between narrative and surface-level appeals, the article excavates stanzas that represent common hunting practices and thereby figure the interpreter's entrapment.  It focuses on the following intertexts: Gervase Markham’s Hungers Prevention (1621), a fowling text where Marvell found his “inverted tree”; Culex, a brief mock epic attributed to Virgil that locates Marvell’s comedic gestures in grand poetic ambition; and Augustine’s Confessions, which in its metaphorical treatment of birdlime helps us to understand Marvell’s investment in poetry to be a suspension in the self-conscious pleasure of a recursive embodied process.
Neomerkantilizam u međunarodnim (geo)političkim odnosima
Authors: Jakovac Pavle , Tomljanović Marko , Velić Ismar
Published: May 2022

Pojava neomerkantilizma može se povezati s pojavom ekonomskog nacionalizma. Neomerkantilističku praksu moglo bi se također povezati i okarakterizirati kao protekcionizam jer dobrim dijelom koristi stari merkantilistički instrumentarij. Povijesna su zbivanja u 19. stoljeću dovela do povezivanja trgovinskih politika SAD-a i ondašnje Njemačke te su se počele primjenjivati one protekcionističke prakse koje su primjenjivale stare merkantilističke zemlje. Današnja moderna neoliberalna paradigma u praksi ekonomskih lidera povremeno i po potrebi poseže za merkantilističkim metodama pogotovo kada u globalnu jednadžbu ulaze strateški resursi. Iako su se industrijske zemlje (u početku) razvijale upravo na principima ekonomskog nacionalizma odnosno merkantilizmima, u planovima ekonomskog razvoja za nerazvijene zemlje (uz pomoć / financiranje Svjetske banke, Međunarodnog monetarnog fonda i Svjetske trgovinske organizacije) praktično je nametnuta potpuno tržišno orijentirana neoliberalna paradigma. Stoga je i u definiranju neomerkantilističke doktrine fokus na velikim gospodarstvima odnosno velikim (transnacionalnim) korporacijama koja mogu djelovati na globalne tržišne uvjete. Neomerkantilistička doktrina modernog svijeta zorno podsjeća na izvornu merkantilističku koja inzistira na profitu pod svaku cijenu, a nekadašnji trgovci koji su utjecali na državnu politiku suviše sliče modernim lobistima koji zagovaraju politike ovisno o interesima korporacija koje zastupaju. Neomerkantilistička praksa privilegija je super-sila svijeta, dok se nerazvijene zemlje nalaze u žrvnju između njih. Stoga, čini se da je tzv. politika sile zapečatila razvojne mogućnosti malim i slabi(ji)m zemljama.
Multimodality imaging based treatment volume definition for recurrent Rhabdomyosarcomas of the head and neck region: An original article
Authors: Ferrat Dincoglan , Omer Sager , Selcuk Demiral , Murat Beyzadeoglu
Published: May 2022

Objective: Rhabdomyosarcomas are among the malignant soft tissue tumors which may originate from primitive mesenchymal cells. These tumors may also be located in the head and neck region and may behave locally aggressive with the invasion of nearby structures. Radiation therapy (RT) may play a role as part of initial management as adjunctive therapy, or for treatment of recurrent disease. Accuracy and precision in RT treatment volume definition have gained utmost importance for achieving optimal treatment results. Herein, we assess multimodality imaging-based RT treatment volume definition for irradiation of recurrent head and neck rhabdomyosarcomas. Materials and methods: Multimodality imaging-based RT treatment volume definition for irradiation of recurrent head and neck rhabdomyosarcomas were evaluated in this study. RT target volume definition by incorporation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or by computed tomography (CT)-simulation images only was assessed with comparative analysis for patients receiving RT for recurrent head and neck rhabdomyosarcomas. Results: As the main outcome of this study, ground truth target volume has been found to be identical to treatment volume definition by CT-MR fusion-based imaging. Conclusion: Optimal management of recurrent head and neck rhabdomyosarcomas may be improved by precise and accurate RT treatment volume determination. Within this context, the incorporation of MRI in the target and treatment volume definition process may be strongly recommended to achieve improved accuracy and precision in target and treatment volume determination despite the need for further supporting evidence.
Evaluation of Turkish articles on historical consciousness according to the historical consciousness model of German history educator Jörn Rüsen
Authors: ASAR Serpil , GÜNAY Nejla
Published: May 2022

The consciousness of history, which is one of the most discussed topics in the philosophy of history of the Age of Enlightenment and modernity, has been among the main goals and behaviors that students want to gain through history education, especially since the last quarter of the twentieth century. According to the German historical philosopher and educator, Jörn Rüsen, historical consciousness establishes a connection between the past, present, and future; shapes the future behavior of individuals. Rüsen, historical consciousness; He stated that he has four dimensions: traditionalist, idealizing, critical and dynamic conceptualization and examined them in terms of time experience, historically significant models, external life orientation, internal life orientation, relationship with moral values, and relationship with moral reasoning. The aim of this study is to determine which historical consciousness type Turkish articles on historical consciousness fall into according to Jörn Rüsen's "History Consciousness Types Performance Indicators" (HCTPI). Within the scope of the study, Hilmi Ziya Ülken (1948), Nihal Atsız (1951), Osman Turan (1968), Nevzat Kösoğlu (1970?), İbrahim Kafesoğlu (1986), Şahin Uçar (1987), İlhan Tekeli (1998), Oktay Ekinci (1999), İskender Öksüz (2007) and M. Şükrü Hanioğlu's (2012) articles on historical consciousness were evaluated within the framework of Jörn Rüsen's “History Consciousness Types Performance Indicators” (HCTPI). The method of the research was basic qualitative research, the technique of data acquisition was document analysis, the technique of data analysis was content analysis, and the sampling method was "criterion sampling". According to the results of the research, out of 10 Turkish articles, 1 article showed the features of Traditionalist Conceptualization Performance Indicator (TCPI), 2 articles of Idealizing Conceptualization Performance Indicator (ICPI), 4 articles of Critical Conceptualization Performance Indicator (CPCI), and 3 articles of Dynamic Conceptualization Performance Indicator (DCPI). As a result of the study, it has been determined that the writings of the study group on historical consciousness, which show dynamic and critical conceptualization features, are more than those that show traditionalist and idealizing conceptualization features.
Establishment of provincial darülmuallimin-i sıbyan in the Ottoman Empire: Adana Darülmuallimin-i Sıbyan (1892-1908)

Published: May 2022

In the multinational Ottoman Empire, different ethnic communities gave education according to their own language, tradition and religious beliefs in the educational institutions they established. In this context, Muslim Turks, who were the founding elements of the Ottoman Empire, also established their own educational institutions. Traditionally, Muslim Turks were educated in madrasahs and sıbyan schools (primary schools). These educational institutions were based on rote learning and partially dependent on Shaykh al-Islam in terms of their educational understanding and system. In the 19th century, innovations were made to save the disintegrating state. Innovations were also made in the field of education, and Ottoman junior high schools were opened in 1838, apart from traditional education institutions. The newly opened high school were tried to be kept out of the traditional education system and understanding. For this reason, the different course curriculum and application applied in high school is called the New Method. Darülmuallimin (Teacher's School) was opened in 1848 in order to train teachers equipped to implement the New Method. However, the known inadequacy of primary schools was seen once again in the inadequacy of students who came to secondary schools. Innovations at the Sıbyan level have become irrecusable. For this reason, usul-i cedit was tried to be spread in the ibtidai schools opened at the primary education level. Then, Darulmuallimin-i Sıbyan (The School of Primary Teachers’ Training) was opened in 1868 to train teachers for primary schools. Primary schools and Darülmuallimin-i Sıbyans opened in Istanbul were tried to be popularized in the provinces. In this context, a secondary school and a primary school were opened in Adana in 1880 and Darülmuallimin-i Sıbyan School in 1892. While teachers were trained in a new way in Adana Darülmuallimin-i Sıbyan school, existing teachers and village imams were trained in a way that can be called in-service training. However, Adana Darülmuallimin-i Sıbyan was not very popular and did not have many students. This study is primarily a historical one, and the establishment of Darülmuallimin-i Sıbyan in Adana and why it did not have many students and the problems that arose were examined based on archival documents. The establishment and development of Adana Darülmuallimin-i Sıbyan School between the years 1892-1908 has been tried to be explained in a cause-effect relationship with a historical perspective. In the study, Ottoman archive documents, educational yearbooks and Adana province yearbooks were used. In addition, copyrighted works were also used.

Published: May 2022

Introduction. The issues of rise in incidence and malignant transformation of endometrial pathology along with elevating proportion of postmenopausal women in global population remain relevant.

Aim: to evaluate clinical and laboratory data of postmenopausal patients with endometrial polyp.

Materials and Methods. There were enrolled 156 cases of morphologically verified endometrial polyp; the age of the study patients averaged 61.39 ± 7.78 years. Clinical and laboratory data of the obstetric and gynecological history were analyzed; the somatic history was assessed (cardiovascular diseases, arterial hypertension, coronary heart disease). Analysis of laboratory data was performed: complete blood count (CBC), general urinalysis, biochemical parameters – level of cholesterol (Cholesterol), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TG), glucose, alanine aminotransferase (ALAT), asparagine aminotransferase (ASAT), tumor marker CA-125. Statistical processing of the results was carried out.

Results. Endometrial polyps were found by 17% more frequently in patients with late postmenopausal age, which were more (95.5%) prevalent in subjects without history of impaired fertility. Moreover, they also had a high rate (84.6%) of medical abortions and use of intrauterine contraceptives (every second patient). In the vast majority of cases (1/3), the patients had a history of inflammatory diseases of the uterus and uterine appendages, whereas before surgery they had in 37.2% vaginal inflammation requiring sanitation. According to the clinical course, the endometrial polyp manifested equally in early and late post-menopause, with a predominance of spotting (27.5%) and complaints of pain (24.4%). A high frequency of relapses after polypectomy was revealed so that every third patient had already undergone relevant surgery. A high incidence of arterial hypertension (71.6%), fat metabolism disorders (82.1%) were revealed in both early and late postmenopausal patients, while fat metabolism disorders were associated with the symptomatic course of endometrial polyps.

Conclusion. The study results showed a statistically significant relationship between the endometrial polyp formation in postmenopausal patients and detected inflammatory pathology of the pelvic organs, diseases of the cardiovascular system and fat metabolism disorders. Further studies are necessary to verify importance of the identified factors as clinical prognostic factors.

BACKGROUND: Modern data from the scientific literature indicate that nitrate, when added to food, can serve as a precursor of nitric oxide (NO). According to research results, the concentrations of nitrates and nitrites in plasma increase when subjects are taking dietary supplements containing nitrates. Such an increase not only contributes to training performance by activating the nitrate pathway of energy supply to muscle activity but also generally improves physical performance.
AIMS: To evaluate the effect of consumption of beet juice, as a source of nitrates, on the performance of biathletes-sprinters.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty male biathletes aged from 18 to 22 years took part in the study. The study took place in a training camp in the summer of 2017. The athletes were divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group was given a preparation containing beet juice of a special variety twice daily after each training session, and the athletes of the control group did not consume anything after training sessions. Before the experiment and after 20 days of intervention, load testing before work refusal was carried out, as well as biochemical and general blood analysis.
RESULTS: In the athletes of the experimental group, who were consuming beet juice, there was a decrease in oxygen uptake per kilogram of body weight and an increase in heart rate at the moment of anaerobic threshold, as well as an increase in load time, which indicates an increase in endurance during anaerobic exercise. This parameter is one of the limiting factors of performance in cyclic sports. In addition, increases in blood iron content, transferrin saturation, hemoglobin concentration, and average erythrocyte volume were observed in participants who consumed the beet juice preparation.
CONCLUSIONS: The observed changes in indicators of the oxygen-transport system of the blood may be one of the mechanisms through which exogenous nitrates realize their positive effect on performance in the anaerobic phase.

The review was made based on https://cyberleninka.ru/, PubMed, MedArt and https://rucml.ru/. Uterine fibroid is one of the most common noninflammatory diseases of female reproductive system of reproductive age. Estrogens and progesterone are tightly connected with various growth factors such as transforming growth factor beta, insulinlike growth factor, endothelial growth factor etc. Dysfunction of sex steroids, alteration of myometrium vascularization and proinflammatory changes of endometrium, associated with leiomyoma can prevent from adequate preparation of endometrium to implantation. The situation is often complicated by combination of leiomyoma and adenomyosis. Pregnancy in women with leiomyoma is associated with increased risk of miscarriage, preeclampsia and placental insufficiency. Isthmic localization of uterine fibroid is considered to be the most unfavorable as it increases the risk of cervical insufficiency. Thus, uterine fibroid is a serious reproductive problem associated with fertility reduction and other problems with childbearing.

Cervical cancer is a leading global health problem and the second most common form of cancer in women living in developing countries. Despite the available methods of diagnosis and treatment, cervical cancer is still the cause of a large number of deaths among vulnerable groups of the female population, which makes further research relevant. The aim of this study was to summarize new technological developments and scientific information about proteomics, which will allow for deepening the understanding of the pathogenesis of cervical cancer and developing new methods of diagnosis and treatment of this pathology. Recent achievements in the field of analytical research methods and bioinformatics provide a wide range of alternatives in the field of proteomic research. To date, proteomic analysis can be performed on almost any biological sample (tumor tissue, blood, urine, saliva, vaginal secretions). Each type of biological sample represents a potential source of diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers, as well as potential targets for therapy. The main limitation of proteomic studies aimed at finding potential biomarkers of the disease is the high variability of the results depending on the specific laboratory. There is variability in concentrations and even in the type of biomarker identified, even though research teams are working with the same samples.
