Impacts of different types of El Niño events on water quality over the Corn Belt, United States
Authors: Chen Pan , Li Wenhong , He Keqi
Published: October 2022

Abstract. The United States Corn Belt region, which primarily includes two large basins, namely, the Ohio–Tennessee River basin (OTRB) and the Upper Mississippi River basin (UMRB), is responsible for the Gulf of Mexico hypoxic zone. Climate patterns such as El Niño can affect the runoff and thus the water quality over the Corn Belt. In this study, the impacts of eastern Pacific (EP) and central Pacific (CP) El Niño events on water quality over the Corn Belt region were analyzed using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) models. Our results indicated that, at the outlets, annual total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) loads decreased by 13.1 % and 14.0 % at OTRB and 18.5 % and 19.8 % at UMRB, respectively, during the EP El Niño years, whereas during the CP El Niño years, they increased by 3.3 % and 4.6 % at OTRB and 5.7 % and 4.4 % at UMRB, respectively. On the subbasin scales, more subbasins showed negative (positive) anomalies of TN and TP during EP (CP) El Niño. A seasonal study confirmed that water quality anomalies showed the opposite patterns during EP and CP El Niño years. At the outlet of OTRB, seasonal anomalies in nutrients matched the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phases, illustrating the importance of climate variables associated with the two types of El Niño events on water quality in the region. At the UMRB, TN and TP were also influenced by agricultural activities within the region, and their anomalies became greater in the growing seasons during both EP and CP El Niño years. A quantitative analysis of precipitation, temperature, and their effects on nutrients suggested that precipitation played a more important role than temperature did in altering the water quality in the Corn Belt region during both types of El Niño years. We also found specific watersheds (located in Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Indiana) that faced the greatest increases in TN and TP loads and were affected by both the precipitation and agricultural activities during the CP El Niño years. The information generated from this study may help proper decision-making for water environment protection over the Corn Belt.

Published: October 2022

Abstract. The Columbia River Treaty (CRT) signed between the United States and Canada in 1961 is known as one of the most successful transboundary water
treaties. Under continued cooperation, both countries equitably share collective responsibilities of reservoir operations and flood control and
hydropower benefits from treaty dams. As the balance of benefits is the key factor of cooperation, future cooperation could be challenged by
external social and environmental factors which were not originally anticipated or change in the social preferences of the two actors. To understand
the robustness of cooperation dynamics, we address two research questions. (i) How does social and environmental change influence cooperation
dynamics? (ii) How do social preferences influence the probability of cooperation for both actors? We analyzed infrastructural, hydrological,
economic, social, and environmental data to inform the development of a socio-hydrological system dynamics model. The model simulates the dynamics
of flood control and hydropower benefit sharing as a function of the probability to cooperate, which in turn is affected by the share of
benefits. The model is used to evaluate scenarios that represent environmental and institutional change and changes in political characteristics
based on social preferences. Our findings show that stronger institutional capacity ensures equitable sharing of benefits over the long term. Under the current CRT, the utility of cooperation is always higher for Canada than non-cooperation, which is in contrast to the United States. The probability to
cooperate for each country is lowest when they are self-interested but fluctuates in other social preference scenarios.
Electroplated waveguides to enhance DNP and EPR spectra of silicon and diamond particles
Authors: Himmler Aaron , Albannay Mohammed M. , von Witte Gevin , Kozerke Sebastian , Ernst Matthias
Published: October 2022

Abstract. Electroplating the waveguide of a 7 T polarizer in a simple innovative way increased microwave power delivered to the sample by 3.1 dB. Silicon particles, while interesting for hyperpolarized MRI applications, are challenging to polarize due to inefficient microwave multipliers at the electron Larmor frequency at high magnetic fields and fast electronic
relaxation times. Improving microwave transmission directly translates to
more efficient EPR excitation at high-field, low-temperature conditions and
promises faster and higher 29Si polarization buildup through dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP).
Physically based modeling of co-seismic landslide, debris flow, and flood cascade
Authors: van den Bout Bastian , Tang Chenxiao , van Westen Cees , Jetten Victor
Published: October 2022

Abstract. The 2008 Wenchuan earthquake lead to various complex
multi-hazard chains that included seismically triggered landslide
initiation, landslide runout, river damming, dam breaching, and flooding.
The modeling of the interactions between such hazardous processes is
challenging due to the complexity and uncertainty. Here we present an
event-based physically based model that is able to simulate multi-hazard
land surface process chains within a single unified simulation. The final
model is used to simulate a multi-hazard chain event in the Hongchun
watershed, where co-seismic landslides led to a landslide dam and, 2 years
later, a debris flow that breached the landslide dam. While most aspects of
the multi-hazard chain are predicted well, the correct prediction of slope
failures remains the biggest challenge. Although the results should be
treated carefully, the development of such a model provides a significant
progress in the applicability of multi-hazard chain simulations.

Causes of parity-related pelvic pain found incidentally on sacroiliac joint MRI: Osteitis condensans ilii and pelvic congestion syndrome
Authors: ÖZBALCI Aysu Başak , TOSUN Migraci
Published: October 2022

Chronic Pelvic Pain (CPP) is defined as severe pain that persists continuously or intermittently for six months or longer in women, is unrelated to sexual intercourse or menstruation, is likely to cause functional limitation, and requires medical treatment. Osteitis Condensans Ilii (OCI) and Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS) are known causes of CPP. Sacroiliac joint Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can show different clinical mimickers of sacroiliitis and pelvic pain causes such as OCI and PCS. In this study, our aim was to investigate the frequency of OCI and PCS in patients referred to our clinic for Sacroiliac joint MRI due to low back-pelvic pain and to analyze their association with age, presence of sacroiliitis and multiparity. The the data of 700 female patients who attended the hospital with complaints of low back pain were investigated and it was found that the number of births experienced by the patient significantly correlated with OCI (OR:3.3) and PCS (OR:5.1). Even when MRI shows no evidence of sacroiliitis in a multiparous woman admitted with low back pain, these two differential diagnoses should still be considered by clinicians and radiologists.

Published: October 2022

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the degree of prolapse and bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women with pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Materials and Methods: This retrospective study includes 40 postmenopausal women who were operated for POP. While patients who had grade <3 vaginal cuff prolapse were accepted as low grade prolapse, patients with grade ≥ 3 vaginal cuff prolapse were accepted as high grade prolapse. Patients' demographic characteristics, obstetric and gynecological history, laboratory findings and dual- energy X-ray absorptiometry results (lumbar spine BMD, lumbar spine T and Z scores, femur neck BMD, femur neck T and Z scores) were recorded as study parameters. Results: There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of age, body mass index, gravida, parity, follicle-stimulating hormone levels. BMD of the femur neck and lumbar spine were significantly higher in the low grade prolapse group than in the high grade prolapse group. T score of the femur neck were significantly higher in the low grade prolapse group than in the high grade prolapse group. In addition, estradiol levels of the high grade prolapse group was lower than the low grade prolapse group. BMD and T score of the femur neck and BMD of the lumbar spine were found to be significantly lower in the high grade prolapse group, suggesting that, there may be an association between the severity of POP and the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.

Laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication is still the most widely used surgical technique in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in children. However, there are some technical and anatomical difficulties in the treatment of reflux in NIC with GERD. All these difficulties lead to the high rate of surgical failure observed in neurological impaired children (NIC). Robotic surgery provides several advantages in overcoming these difficulties. This study is the first study to evaluate the effectiveness of robotic surgery in the treatment of GERD in children with severe or moderate neurological impairments reported in Turkey. This study took place between January 2018 and February 2020. We retrospectively evaluated the records of eleven children with severe or moderate neurological problems who were treated using the robotically assisted laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication (RALNF) technique for demographic data, anesthesia time, pre-console time, console time, and postoperative complications. Nine of the patients (81.8%) had serious and two had moderate neurological problems. All of the patients applied to the emergency department at different times due to recurrent lung infections. While the first RALNF console time was 240 minutes, this study revealed that this time decreased to 45 minutes. None of the patients had complications related to the surgical procedure, but four patients required postoperative intensive care unit up to two months due to several problems related to NIC. RALNF can be safely applied to pediatric patients with GERD with severe and moderate NIC.

Published: October 2022

The objective of this research was to study the physical development of schoolchildren and teenagers with chronic gastroduodenal pathology (СGDP). The basis of the work was a multifactor analysis of 1547 schoolchildren from 6 to 15 years old. We carried out a study of physical growth indicators, including body height for age and weight for age and body mass index (BMI). To maintain the reliability of the study, we selected only children with СGDP, excluding children with functional impairments not associated with damage to these organs. СGDP included chronic gastritis, gastroduodenitis, duodenitis, gastric ulcers, and duodenal ulcers. The results indicated weight loss in children with CGDP against a background of increased growth compared to the control group (63.64%). These were mainly children with various forms of chronic gastritis and gastroduodenitis. Analysis of BMI evinced that 35.66% of children showed a decrease in the index (BMI<18.5), while 55.24% had BMI=20-25, and 7.69% BMI=25-29.9. We observed in children and teenagers with СGDP physical growth disorders, such as a reduction or increase in body weight compared with healthy coevals. The differences observed were dependent on the gastroduodenal area pathology type. Registered with ClinicalTrials.gov PRS ID: NCT04702542 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04702542).

Published: October 2022

Biceps tendon disorders are substantial cause of intense shoulder pain, and thus they require a careful medical attention. We compared the clinical outcomes of chronic rupture, tenotomy and tenodesis of proximal biceps tendon of patients underwent arthroscopic shoulder surgery. We included 98 patients over 50 years-old who underwent arthroscopic surgery for rotator cuff tears and grouped as tenotomy, tenodesis and chronic rupture of biceps tendon. Preoperative and postoperative 24-months follow-up Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score and the University of California–Los Angeles (UCLA) Shoulder Scale scores were compared. Chronic biceps rupture was the most common pathology in massive rotator cuff rupture group (75.9%). As tenotomy, tenodesis and chronic rupture groups were compared in terms of VAS and UCLA score improvements (preoperative and postoperative change); tenotomy showed better outcomes and there was a statistically significant difference between tenotomy and tenodesis groups in terms of improvements in VAS and UCLA scores (p = 0.036, p = 0.010, respectively). No statistically significant difference between chronic rupture and tenodesis in terms of VAS and UCLA scores improvements were observed (p = 1.000, p = 0.250, respectively). Also, tenotomy showed superior VAS score improvement than chronic tendon rupture (p=0.024) however no statistically significant difference was observed in UCLA score improvement between tenotomy and chronic rupture (p = 0.527). According to our study, tenotomy seems to be a more appropriate surgical method than tenodesis in massive and full-thickness rotator cuff tears with severe biceps tendon degeneration, and also it is not necessary to perform tenodesis in cases with chronic biceps rupture.

Published: October 2022

The cervical segment of an internal carotid artery (cICA) usually has a straight vertical course without any branching. In the present study, variations of the cICA were evaluated based on the three-dimensional volume-rendered neurovascular images. The computed tomography angiography images of 56 patients diagnosed with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) were evaluated retrospectively. Two separate researchers, blinded to each other and clinical information of the patients, evaluated the courses of cICA bilaterally. The variations were classified as tortuosity, kinking, and coiling. A total of 112 cICA segments of 56 patients were evaluated. The cICA variations were present in 21.4% of patients and 17.9% of segments. There was tortuosity in 5 (8.9%) patients, kinking in 4 (7.1%) patients, and coiling in 6 (10.7%) patients. Of 41 patients with aneurysmal SAH, there were a cICA variation in 8 (19.5%) patients. A cICA variation was detected in 4 (26.7%) of 15 patients with idiopathic SAH. The cICA variation ratio in SAH patients was concordant with studies performed in different patient groups. Although the ratio was slightly higher in idiopathic SAH patients, there was no statistical significance between the aneurysmal and idiopathic SAH groups. The coiling was more frequent in SAH patients compared to previous studies. The cICA variations tend to be bilateral in SAH patients.
Conversion from laparoscopic cholecystectomy to open surgery reasons and possible risks: A single center experience
Authors: ÖZDEMİR Ali , KARAKAYA Ahmet , PERGEL Ahmet
Published: October 2022

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has grown in popularity since its introduction and has become the gold standard surgical method for treating cholelithiasis. It has several advantages over open surgery, including less postoperative pain, a shorter hospital stay, a faster return to normal activities, and better cosmetic results. Converting from laparoscopic to open surgery may be necessary in some cases, either to prevent or treat difficulties. The current conversion rate from laparoscopic to open surgery is between 2 and 15%. Open surgery may be required due to advanced age, male gender, acute cholecystitis, anatomical alterations of the gallbladder or biliary system, obesity, bleeding, adhesions, and biliary tract injuries. Our study aimed to determine the risk factors that influence the conversion to open surgery. Between January 2018 and December 2021, we analyzed 921 cholecystectomy cases retrospectively at the Recep Tayyip Erdogan University Training and Research Hospital. We excluded twenty-three of these patients from the study once it was revealed that they had undergone direct open surgery or an open cholecystectomy while undergoing another operation. Twenty-eight patients had a laparoscopic cholecystectomy but had to convert to open surgery due to difficulties. We obtained the demographic and clinical information about the patients from hospital records. We analyzed whether these characteristics had a significant impact on the conversion from laparoscopic to open surgery by comparing the data of an equal number of randomly selected laparoscopic completed patients. The most common reason for conversion from laparoscopic to open cholecystectomy was adhesion due to inflammation, which accounted for 3.04 percent of conversions. In our study, cholecystitis symptoms, including multiple calculi on ultrasonography and increased wall thickness, and raised GGT and ALP levels, all affected the decision to convert to open surgery. We discovered no significant associations between gender, pancreatitis, cholangitis, stone size, and ASA score. The duration of hospitalization was considerably longer in the group that converted to open surgery. Increased rates of conversion to open surgery are associated with advanced age, obesity, previous episodes of cholecystitis, and adhesions due to previous abdominal incisions, presence of cholecystitis findings such as multiple calculi on ultrasonography, increased wall thickness and high GGT and ALP values. The most influential factor in converting to open surgery appears to have previously had cholecystitis. A preoperative patient examination can aid in predicting the risk of exposure.
Histopathological effects of nimodipine and pentoxifylline on the vessel wall in end-to-end anastomoses in rat carotid arteries
Authors: ARPA Abdurrahman , AYDIN OZTURK Pınar
Published: October 2022

When reperfusion following ischemia occurs, oxygen returns to the ischemic tissue, increasing free oxygen radicals and inducing paradox secondary damage. Before infarction, revascularization may influence the morbidity rate. Successful revascularization is not always achieved due to stenosis incidence, proliferation of smooth muscle cells, and intimal hyperplasia. This study compares the effects of nimodipine that prevents vasospasm and pentoxifylline, which stimulates growth factors and reduces collagen synthesis on intimal hyperplasia. Eighteen randomly selected Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: Group 1, the control group; Group 2, intraperitoneally administered nimodipine; Group 3, orally administered pentoxifylline. Their right-sided carotid arteries were used for anastomosis and the left-sided ones for the control. After a 7-day treatment, both the right and left carotid arteries were removed. In the biopsy, the lumen’s area and diameter, thickness of tunica media thickness, thrombus, edema, intimal hyperplasia, vessel wall injury, and inflammation were analyzed. Pentoxifylline was effective in preventing intimal hyperplasia and tunica intima was similar to that in untreated carotid arteries. However, nimodipine inhibited intimal hyperplasia, but it was not as effective as pentoxifylline. The effects of pentoxifylline after anastomosis should be further assessed in vasoprotective treatment taking into account its efficacy against intimal hyperplasia.

Published: October 2022

In this study, we aimed to examine cost analysis and evaluate the results of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) performed with reusable and disposable flexible ureteroscope (FURS) devices in our clinic. In total, we included 96 patients who underwent RIRS surgery for kidney stones with reusable FURS (n = 49) and disposable FURS (n = 47). There were noted preoperative demographic data and stone characteristics of the patients. Also, operation time, fluoroscopy time, hospitalization time, urethral catheter removal time, return to work time, complication rates and cost per procedure were collected and analyzed. There were no significant differences between each groups in terms of demographic characteristics of retrospectively analyzed the data of 96 patients. In addition, the comparison made in terms of operative and postoperative results in both groups was similar. We determined significant difference for mean cost per case compared two groups. There were cost per case $ 293,87 in group 1 and $ 191,48 in group 2. We determined that the repeated use of disposable FURS compared in terms of cost analysis is a safe, effective and low cost method without increasing the infection frequency.

Basically, the preparation of regional regulations departs from the expectation of the realization of quality public services. One of the steps that can be taken is to bring input and aspirations from the community. The Government can capture the aspirations of the community as the parties affected by the presence of public policies. This service is carried out in Pekanbaru City, precisely in Marpoyan Damai and Senapelan District. This service activity also emphasizes the importance of community involvement in making regional regulations. Therefore, this service is carried out in the context of strengthening community participation in the formation of regional regulations. This activity is carried out using presentation and discussion methods to provide understanding to the community regarding three things, namely the concept of participation, participation channels and solutions in dealing with participation constraints. The results of this service activity further add to the public's insight regarding the technical delivery of aspirations. Through this service activity, the community gains reinforcement regarding ways that can be done to pass the proposal. Communities need to know specific ways to convey aspirations, including making superior programs, conveying aspirations in forums and synchronizing proposals with the sub-district agenda.

Avaliação dos desastres naturais no Estado da Paraíba entre 2010 e 2020.
Authors:   , Moura Rodrigues Layane
Published: October 2022

O desastre é tratado como resultado de eventos adversos, naturais ou provocados pelo homem. Os números de desastres naturais vêm crescendo cada vez mais no território brasileiro, sendo em sua maioria provocado pela falta ou excesso de água. A região Nordeste é a mais afetada por esta problemática e no Estado da Paraíba nota-se a ocorrência de estiagens, secas, inundações, erosão marinha e vendavais. Esses eventos naturais, comuns ao Estado, passaram a causar danos à população paraibana, na medida em que haja registros confirmados. Com base nesta situação o presente trabalho objetivou avaliar registros de desastres e danos relativos às ocorrências em arquivos e banco de dados do Ministério do Desenvolvimento Regional, no Sistema Integrado de Informações sobre Desastres e no Ministério da Integração Nacional e Secretaria Nacional de Defesa Civil, para o Estado da Paraíba no período 2011 a 2020. Os principais tipos de desastres identificados foram inundações, estiagens e erosões marinhas. No período 2011 a 2020, 14.732.491 pessoas da Paraíba foram impactadas pela estiagem. Entres os anos de 2010 a 2020, foram observados 84 casos de inundações. Ao longo de 10 anos foram registradas duas ocorrências de erosão marinha, uma em 2014 e outra em 2016. Durante o período estudado não houve ocorrência de vendaval e ciclone. Durante o período analisado, conclui-se que o desastre natural mais presente é o da seca e estiagem, isto é, devido a área de estudo estar localizada em região semiárida. Quanto aos danos provocados, todos os três fenômenos que tiveram ocorrências trouxeram prejuízos financeiros para a população, sendo o de erosão marinha, o que teve a quantidade maior de pessoas impactadas.

While the field of social media is constantly expanding, so is the usage of self-sexualization, which is now referred to as the thirst trap. Thirst trap is an example of a widely practiced selfie culture, or the capacity to upload images in order to attract people’s attention to their sexy bodies. This research is a preliminary investigation into the characterization of the thirst trap concept in YouTube. Using the concept of thirst trap in YouTube, this study aims to start a new discourse about self-sexualization. This study’s findings can be used to further the discourse on new media and self-sexualization.
Dialogism, heteroglossia, and polyphony in Shyam Benegal’s teledrama series Amaravati ki Kathayen
Authors: Dash Amarendra Kumar , Behera Rashmi Ranjan
Published: October 2022

This study offers a critical analysis of ShyamBenegal’sHindi language-based teledrama series AmaravathikiKathayen utilizing Mikhail Bakhtin’s theories of dialogism, heteroglossia, and polyphony. It is common sense to think that Bakhtin, the philosopher of dialogism, would be sympathetic to the drama form in which dialogues are the most natural mode of expression. Instead, Bakhtin argues that the monological selection of languages in drama does not allow the dialogic interaction of different registers. Second, drama, for upholding its unity of plot, cannot allow its characters to abide by a truly multi-level dialogic engagement. However, this act is especially performed in the novel by the inter-animation of the narrator’s all-encompassing language and the language of the characters. Against this, this study brings to the fore the historical premisesof Bakhtin’s reservations against the dramatic form. Recognizing the merits of Bakhtin’s philosophy of literature and language, two episodes from AmaravathikiKathayen, a Hindi language-based teledrama series,areanalyzedto place them before the global audiences as well as to ascertain the relevance of Bakhtin’s poetics across the genres. Above all, a return to dialogism as a critical inquiry is important to promote the values of plurality, dialogue, and peaceful co-existence.
Cinema pandemia: Reflections on the underrated Netflix series La Révolution vis-à-vis current Philippine & international realities
Authors: San Juan David Michael M.
Published: October 2022

This piece tackles the underrated Netflix series La Révolution vis-à-vis current realities of the pandemic in a national and international context. Using data and statistics on the pandemic era in the Philippines and around the world, in combination with a social realist contextualization of the said history-inspired yet fantasy-imbued film series, this short article weaves numbers and stories into contemporary reflections on how the reel helps explain, inform, and even shape the real, through humankind’s dual role as not-so-passive viewers of the reel and as dynamic actors or subjects who are capable shapers of the real.
Гуманитарная деятельность как фактор изменения характера экономических взаимоотношений
Authors: Бегма Юрий Сергеевич , Елена Вячеславовна Зенкина
Published: October 2022

Затянувшийся экономический кризис экономики развитых стран мира (определяющих, по сути, состояние всей мировой экономики) обнажил принципиальную ограниченность (в отличие от множества предшествующих кризисов) дальнейшей экспансии прежнего пути экономического роста. Наметился предел территориальной экспансии: не осталось больше стран и рынков, не вовлеченных в международный товарообмен разделения труда. Определился также предел роста объема товарного производства и сбыта. Основные направления развития производства – технологические новации, обеспечивающие глубокую переработку первичного сырья и постоянное обновление товарной продукции, автоматизация и роботизация, позволяющие снизить расходы на зарплату наемных работников, привели к относительному снижению уровня потребительского спроса, т. е. к кризисному перенасыщению рынка товаров широкого потребления. Стимулирование спроса за счет экспансии потребительского кредита в свою очередь быстро привело к критическому уровню неоплаченной задолженности и невозвратов банковских кредитов. В силу этого, в данной статье впервые предпринята попытка проанализировать пути и перспективы глубокой перестройки модели индустриального капиталистического производства и сложившегося общества потребления. Целью исследования является обоснование того, что экономический рост за счет расширения нематериального производства принципиально меняет неоклассическую модель капиталистической экономики и стандартные теоретические методы преодоления возникающих проблем развития в рамках принятой парадигмы оказываются малоэффективными. В результате исследования показано, что преодоление границ традиционного товарного рынка капиталистических стран идет сегодня за счет коммерциализации новых сфер виртуальной деятельности – науки, спорта, искусства, истории и даже религии. Дано определение гуманитарной деятельности как особой сферы деятельности современного общества, в которой используются (и раскрываются) возможности человека как личности, и прежде всего, его потенциал интеллектуальной, творческой деятельности, которая порождает качественно новые эффекты, новые механизмы взаимодействия экономических параметров. Таким образом, результаты исследования обосновывают становление новой теоретической модели развития мировой экономики.

Authors: Ладиков Ярослав Сергеевич , Камышанченко Елена Николаевна
Published: October 2022

Референдум Брексит оказал влияние на миграцию польских граждан из Евросоюза в Великобританию. В силу того, что данное явление мало исследовано в русскоязычном научном сообществе, проблема в такой постановке рассматривается впервые. Целью данного исследования является выявление социально-экономических факторов в контексте Брексит, повлиявших на миграционный поток польских мигрантов в Великобританию. Для изучения проблемы были проанализированы статистические данные, представленные как исследовательскими институтами, так и государственными ведомствами. В результате исследования были определены количественные показатели граждан Польши в Великобритании среди остальных мигрантов. Были рассмотрены факторы, повлиявшие на динамику миграционных потоков, также был произведен расчет убыли и прироста польской миграции в Великобританию в период 2016–2020 гг., сделан сравнительный анализ польских и британских статистических данных. Результаты исследования открывают новое теоретическое направление в исследовании влияния референдума Брексит на польских мигрантов в Великобритании.
Модель многофакторного анализа конкурентоспособности корпоративных структур
Authors: Тин Лян
Published: October 2022

Выделены основные методические подходы к анализу конкурентоспособности корпоративных структур, которые в отличие от одного описательного подхода носят количественный характер. Дана их краткая характеристика. Один из подходов, построенный на основе корреляционно-регрессионного анализа, был развит до уровня построения мультипликативной многофакторной модели, которая для двух факторов близка к производственной функции Кобба – Дугласа. Разработанная экономико-статистическая модель многофакторного анализа конкурентоспособности корпорации позволяет осуществлять комплексное исследование конкурентоспособности развития корпоративных структур, ранжировать выделенные внутренние и внешние факторы с точки зрения влияния на процесс обеспечения конкурентоспособности, аргументировать организационно-экономические механизмы генерирования перспективных конкурентных преимуществ развития корпорации. Построенная для семи факторов математическая модель конкурентоспособности корпоративных структур апробирована на статистико-аналитических данных двух компаний: ПАО «Камаз» (Россия) и BAIC Group (КНР). Эти конкретные модели позволили выявить наиболее весомые факторы повышения конкурентоспособности рассматриваемых компаний.
Об изменчивости Pediasia kuldjaensis (Caradja, 1916) (Lepidoptera, Crambidae): проверка гипотезы о криптических видах с помощью маркера мтДНК COI
Authors: Корб Станислав Константинович
Published: October 2022

В работе использованы как молекулярно-генетические (исследование последовательности COI мтДНК), так и традиционные морфологические методы (изучение внешней морфологии, а также генитальных структур самцов и самок огневок на серийном материале). Выяснено, что P. kuldjaensis обладает широким размахом изменчивости по внешним признакам (размеры, окраска крыльев и крыловой рисунок); степень изменчивости по гениталиям самцов и самок значительно меньше. Среди выделенных шести фенотипов для трех предполагалась видовая самостоятельность; проверка этой гипотезы молекулярно-генетическими методами выявила ее несостоятельность, все выделенные фенотипы относятся к одному виду. Подобное исследование изменчивости для видов рода Pediasia проведено впервые.
Pharmacognostic standardization and qualitative analysis of Gymnosporia senegalensis
Authors: Jain Divya , Janmeda Pracheta
Published: October 2022

This study aims to evaluate the pharmacognostic parameters of different parts of Gymnosporia senegalensis (Lam.) Loes. These parameters play a vital role in the traditional medicine system for administering the drug and their therapeutic effects on various ailments. Standardization parameters include sequential extract preparation, physicochemical studies (ash value, moisture content, pH, fluorescence analysis), and phytochemical screening of the three parts of G. senegalensis. Various macro and microelements (in ppm) were estimated by using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Total ash content (3.04±0.02), water-soluble ash (2.63±0.01), and insoluble acid ash (0.72±0.01) were found to be the highest in the leaf. Foreign organic matter was observed higher in stem (0.07±0.04) followed by bark and leaf. The moisture content was found lowest in bark (2.02±0.01), preventing microbial growth. The pH of the crude drug of plant parts is weakly acidic, ranging from pH 5.33 to 5.96 at 1 % and 4.93 to 6.03 at 10 %. Fluorescence results were also helpful in detecting the substituents and adulterants and assessing the crude drugs qualitatively. The present study revealed the presence of various primary and secondary metabolites (terpenoids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponin) in high and moderate amounts in the extracts of different parts of the plant. The stem and bark also showed a reasonable presence of macro and microelements (As, Cr, Cd, Pb, Zn, Mn, and Cu). The complete analysis provides valuable information for the quality assurance of G. senegalensis as a crude drug for preparing formulations of herbal medications.
AEROBİK EGZERSİZ MOTOR ÖĞRENME SÜRECİNİ HIZLANDIRABİLİR Mİ?
Authors: YILDIRIM Muhammed Şeref , GÜÇLÜ GÜNDÜZ Arzu
Published: October 2022

Düzenli fiziksel aktivitenin dikkat, yürütme ve hafıza gibi beyin fonksiyonları üzerindeki olumlu etkileri iyi bilinmektedir. Son yapılan araştırmalarda ilginç bir şekilde tek bir aerobik egzersiz seansının, frontal ve motor bölgelerde kortikal aktiviteyi ve bilişsel işlevi artırdığı ve bu etkinin egzersiz bittikten sonra da en az yarım saat devam ettiği gösterilmiştir. Fakat klinikte hastaların (inme, parkinson, kafa travması vb. sonrası) ya da sporcuların edinmesi gereken beceriler tek bir kognitif paramatreye bağlı olmayan kompleks motor görevlerdir. Son yıllarda araştırmalar egzersizin kognitif paramatrelerde ortaya çıkardığı bu artışları teker teker incelemek yerine, kognitif fonksiyon artışının gerçek hayat görevlerindeki motor beceri öğrenme hızına etkilerine yoğunlaşmıştır. Bu araştırmalar sonucu elde edilecek bilgiler, doğrudan klinik katkı sağlayacaktır. Seçilen aerobik egzersiz şiddeti ve zamanlamasının motor öğrenme üzerinde etkileri tam olarak bilinmemektedir. Aerobik egzersizin motor beceri pratiğinden önce ya da sonra yapılması da motor öğrenmenin farklı fazlarına etki etmekte ve böylece egzersiz zamanlaması motor öğrenme sürecinde önemli rol oynamaktadır. Egzersizin şiddeti ile ilgili ise şiddet arttıkça artan nörotransmitter aktivitesine bağlı olarak öğrenme hızının artacağı düşünülebilir. Fakat motor beceri pratiğinden önce yapılan yüksek şiddetli bir egzersiz seansının yol açacağı yorgunluk faktörü denklemin işleyişini tamamen değiştirebilir. Motor beceriyi artırma hedefiyle uygulanan aerobik egzersizlerde optimal zamanlama ve şiddetin belirlenmesi için çok sayıda yeni çalışmaya ihtiyaç vardır. Bu klasik derlemede, günümüze kadar bu konuda yapılmış çalışmalar sonuçlarıyla birlikte verilmiştir.
