Major evidence of clinical studies on the triad gut microbiota, ubiquinone and physical exercise: a systematic review
Authors: Schmechel Fernanda Rossi
Published: March 2023

Introduction: In the scenario of sports practices, the human gut microbiota is currently the focus of convergent interest in many diseases and sports performance. Sports performance studies have also shown interesting and promising results. Supplementation with certain antioxidants such as ubiquinone [Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)] is important for physically active individuals to speed recovery from fatigue and prevent exercise damage. Objective: It was to demonstrate the influence of the gut microbiota and ubiquinone on the performance of athletes. Methods: The systematic review rules of the PRISMA Platform were followed. The research was carried out from September to November 2022 in Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Scielo, and Google Scholar databases. The quality of the studies was based on the GRADE instrument and the risk of bias was analyzed according to the Cochrane instrument. Results and Conclusion: 104 articles were found. A total of 54 articles were evaluated and 27 were included in this systematic review. Considering the Cochrane tool for risk of bias, the overall assessment resulted in 13 studies with a high risk of bias and 27 studies that did not meet GRADE. Most studies showed homogeneity in their results, with X 2 =97.2% >50%. The composition and activity of the gut microbiota are influenced by many different factors, such as diet and physical activity. Cumulative data indicate that gut bacteria are sensitive to modulation by physical activity, as demonstrated by studies using models of training and hypoactivity. Supplementation with the antioxidant Coenzyme Q10 is important for physically active individuals to accelerate recovery from fatigue and prevent damage caused by exercise, in addition to optimizing training and improving sports performance. Clinical studies have shown that in physical fatigue concerning physical exercise, patients have low plasma concentrations of Coenzyme Q10.

Published: March 2023

Article 06 of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco control emphasizes the importance of implementing effective tax and price policies for Tobacco products. To fight against the Tobacco epidemic WHO has introduced the MPOWER package which R stands for raising taxes on Tobacco. According to WHO standards, 70% of the excise tax from the retail price will contribute to an effective Tobacco tax indexation policy. National Authority on Tobacco and Alcohol organized Tobacco Taxation and Illicit Trade virtual workshop with the collaboration of WHO FCTC Knowledge Hub on Tobacco Taxation, Research Unit on the Economics of Excisable Products, University of Cape Town. The developed Tobacco tax indexation formula of the National Authority on Tobacco and Alcohol was modified by including exogenous factor with the guidance of experts of WHO FCTC Secretariat Knowledge Hub on tobacco taxation. Tobacco tax simulation modeling can be used to predict how much tobacco consumption will decrease, and government revenue will increase if there is a change in the tobacco excise tax structure and an increase in the level of taxation. Preliminary evidence from the TETSiM model predicts that a 91.6 to 124.6 billion increase in tobacco excise taxation from the current 2022 to 2026 would lead to a 1.1 % drop in consumption and approximately 101.8 to 136.9 billion increases in government revenue. The finding of the modeling of Tobacco taxes with the TETSiM model will lead to an increase in Tobacco tax revenue and decrease Tobacco consumption in Sri Lanka.

Published: March 2023

The research paper “Employee satisfaction in an NGO working in the educational sector in Mumbai” aims to throw light on the fact that non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have risen as a lucrative career option, especially for the youths of the nation. NGOs do not only tend to support the government by working for the welfare of the people and especially for the deprived, and along with that, they are transforming into a sector that tackles the problem of unemployment by hiring young and creative minds with a will to do work for social causes. By offering a lucrative salary and a good work environment, NGOs provide a livelihood to people, and hence the employees gain an extraordinary experience of providing quality service at a subsidized or free rate and hence helping people gain equal status.

Published: March 2023

With the global epidemic, home entertainment is particularly important. Netflix streaming company offers a vast inventory of movies and TV on demand. Netflix has grown substantially since the 2020 epidemic, adding 16 million subscribers. As a leading company in the streaming industry, the reasons for Netflix’s success are worth analysing. This paper analyses Netflix’s promotional strategy, success stories and experiences and identifies problematic areas for advice. The study finds that Netflix’s promotional strategy is related to social media, which is used to increase interaction with viewers, such as the case of Netflix’s successful entry into the Spanish market using Twitter. The disruption of the business model and the creation of a recommendation system enhance the user experience. The development of original content attracts new subscribers through innovation, as in the case of Black Mirror, which created a new interactive model. At the same time, a number of problems have been identified, such as the limitations of Netflix’s international development, the dependence of revenues on subscriptions and the high cost of producing original content.

The influence of technology is very large, especially in the development of information. Accurate, fast, and precise information is very important for life today because information becomes a necessity in conveying something. The use of computers is one of the developments in information that is very useful because it can perform data processing, making reports and sending information remotely and in determining the potential of students. Determination of the potential is absolutely necessary by the school agency, namely the school, the guidance teacher has an important role in granting status to students. Determination of student potential requires special professional handling, because it involves the success of students in facing the examinations that will be given. Mistakes in determining students' readiness to face national exams can negatively affect the process and results of student exams themselves. So we need a method that can help minimize the impact of mistakes when determining the potential of these students, namely by grouping data techniques from the results of data mining. The need for data mining becauseof the large amount of data that can be used to produce useful information and knowledge. Naïve Bayes is a machine learning method that uses probability calculations. The use of this algorithm is considered appropriate because Naive Bayesian Classifier is one classification algorithm that is simple but has high capability and accuracy.

Resumen

El mejoramiento genético convencional de diversas especies requiere de la formación y evaluación de líneas, híbridos y testigos en extensos experimentos de campo, por varios ciclos y a través de diferentes ambientes. Tales procesos originan factores que causan afectación a los recursos naturales y/o daños a la salud del ser humano. La generación de dihaploides y el análisis molecular de la aptitud combinatoria general son metodologías viables que al integrarlas e implementar sus técnicas en los procedimientos clásicos del fitomejoramiento de especies anuales y perennes, contribuirían a que los programas de mejoramiento genético sean más eficientes y sustentables.

El nopal (Opuntia spp.) es una especie de gran importancia para México, ya que se cultiva para la producción de nopal verdura (nopalito), tuna y forraje. Dentro de estos tres objetivos del cultivo de nopal, la tuna ocupó más del 50 % de la superficie destinada al cultivo de esta especie en 2019. Para el altiplano potosino-zacatecano, la tuna ocupó más del 70 % de la superficie cultivada, volumen de producción y valor de la producción, en comparación con el nopal forrajero y el nopal verdura (Figura 1). Sin embargo, la tuna presenta una vida de postcosecha corta, debido a sus características fisiológicas. Además, la tuna requiere de procesos adicionales de eliminación de espinas, lo cual disminuye aún más su vida de anaquel.

Authors:   SASTRA Deemed University, J S Dr. Siva Prakash , Naidu Y Mr.Dinesh
Published: March 2023

Recent research on soil improvement have showed that the use of biopolymers can significantly enhance the various engineering properties of the soil. Soil improvement using biopolymers has attracted considerable attention in recent years, with the aim to reduce the harmful environmental effects of traditional materials. This report aims to provide a review on the environmental assessment of biopolymers as binders in soil improvement, biopolymer-treated with soil characteristics, as well as the most important factors affecting the behavior of the treated soil. Various geotechnical properties are evaluated and compared, including the unconfined compressive strength, and durability of biopolymer-treated soils. The usage of biopolymers has positive effects on the soil in the form of enhanced strength, However, a thorough understanding of the geotechnical qualities is required in order to completely apply the biopolymer technology to the fields. Biopolymer kinds, soil types, biopolymer contents, curing times, thermal treatment, and mixing techniques all play a significant role in how effective biopolymers are at improving the ground. In this part of study, the pycnometer method, sieve analysis, standard proctor compaction tests, unconfined compression test, durability, gel plug tests, pH test, and FTIR test, were used to understand and analyze the pectin-treated sand.

The Ethnonym русь and the East-Germanic *rauþs ‘Red’: new contributions to the
hypothesis
Authors:   Institute of Cultural Heritage of
            Academy of Sciences of Moldova, Romanchuk Aleksey
Published: March 2023

The author draws attention to a number of important unresolved problems (including
those recognized by leading supporters) of the currently dominant variant of the
Scandinavian etymology behind of the ethnonym Rus’/русь, He argues a new version of the
East Germanic etymology of this ethnonym. Following the explanatory model of
“Finno-Germanic militarized groups”, the author believes that for the Roman period we
should also assume the existence of such groups (in particular, on Saaremaa, Lanemaa and
Virumaa), controlling the sea route along the southern coast of the Baltic — but with
the East Germans as the dominant element. East Germanic *rauþs ‘red’ is proposed as the
original etymon for русь. Taking into account the phonetic processes characteristic of
the East Germanic languages (early contraction of the original Germanic diphthongs and
the tendency to increase vowels), a natural stage of evolution of *rauþs ‘red’ should be
the form *rōþs. Considering ethnonymic models of the Finnish peoples (and Goths), we
should justifiably obtain the form *rōþ (but with the meaning ‘red’) as the original
etymon for the Slavic русь.
Medieval Mace Heads and Flail Striking Heads of Undetermined Provenience from the

In the old collections of the Archaeological Museum in Cracow, Poland, there is a
small group of medieval mace heads and flail striking heads of various forms. A part of
them has been published by the author of this article, the rest is still waiting for
publication. Here, artifacts of undetermined provenience are presented. We may only
guess that they were discovered before the World War II in the Old Ruthenian areas of
the modern Ukraine. They are discussed in conformity with the typology of medieval maces
and East European flail striking heads elaborated more than a half century ago by
Anatoliy Kirpichnikov. Presented specimens of old weapons are not full-value
archaeological sources because they are devoid of the archaeological context. For this
reason, this short text is only a catalogue supplementing the corpus of medieval mace
heads and flail striking heads.
Finds of Small Leaden Seals of the “Drogichin Type” in Pskov (2017—2020)
Authors:   Pskov State University, Salmina Elena ,   Archaeological Centre of Pskov Oblast, Salmin Sergey ,   Archaeological Centre of Pskov Oblast
Published: March 2023

A collection of seals of the “Drogichin type”, most of which come from a limited area, was obtained during archaeological excavations on the territory of the former Pskov thermal power plant in 2017—2020. Despite relatively small size of the series, the collection is interesting for the following reasons: the finds were obtained right in the course of the excavations; the whole bulk of them can be associated with a rather narrow chronological period (mid-12th century), but their appearance in the cultural deposits corresponds to a later period, the time when a metalworking complex was functioning on the territory under consideration. Basing on this fact, we can assume that the seals entered the territory of the Mst-III excavation site as raw material for remelting. At the same time, the simultaneity of the existence of a significant part of the artifacts suggests the presence of some storage, which contained synchronous documents sealed with leaden seals (?), which were destroyed much later.
Appealing to the Gods and Ancestors: Ancient Maya Conch Shell Trumpets as Ritual Instruments
Authors:   Russian State Unuiversity for the Humanities, Beliaev Dmitri ,   Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology, Russian Academy of Sciences,   National Research University Higher School of Economics
Published: March 2023

The use of trumpets made from the conch shells of large marine mollusks was one of the peculiar traits of Mesoamerican culture. The earliest evidence of this practice can be placed in the Middle Formative (I mil. BC), but this tradition persisted among the native population of Mexico until the 20 th century. Conch shell trumpets were excavated in many Maya sites (Uaxactun, Kaminaljuyu, Mayapan, Tikal, Dzibilchaltun etc.). Since the 1960s it was believed that their main function was that of alarm, and sometimes they were considered as a type of musical instruments. The analysis of previously unpublished hieroglyphic inscription on the conch shell from Asunción Mita (Department of Jutiapa, Guatemala) preserved in the National Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology of Guatemala shows that it was used in the ceremony of appeal to the deities. New interpretation of the hieroglyphic texts on the Early Classic conch shells leads to the conclusion that, in the Classic Maya culture, their main function was ritual. They served as one of the main instruments of the ritual communication with the deities and ancestors, whose names and images were inscribed on the conch shells.

Published: March 2023

Today an important challenge is opening: designing public spaces by taking into account the augmented meaning carried by “new digital citizen and users”. New ways of digital communication, a broader network of digital information and the open data naturally transform also the physical space into something new we can call “phygital” (Momentum 2012). The usual way to read urban spaces could be improved with new digital technology. How is the boundary between virtual and real?; what if people overcome easily these boundaries? The phygital spaces are not the common urban spaces as we usually think but a place-based network of interaction among people. Throughout a research experiment carried out by Polytechnic of Turin in collaboration with the Municipality of Volpiano (TO), this paper proposes a community planning strategy where people keep their central role and virtual interaction empower the design of a new sustainable city space.
