Authors: Lemos Nayara Alves de Freitas , Freitas-Junior Ruffo de , Gouveia Rebeca Mota , Lacerda Elisângela Silveira-
Published: February 2022

Objective: To identify the prevalence of the founding variant c.1010G>A (R337H) in the TP53 gene in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Methods: This is a cross-sectional study, carried out using data from the Goiania PopulationBased Cancer Registry, in partnership with the team from the Molecular and Cytogenetic Genetics Laboratory of the Federal University of Goias and Clinical Research Unit/HC. Peripheral venous blood collections, DNA extraction, and Sanger genetic sequencing were carried out in 27 samples from unselected patients diagnosed with DCIS in the period between 1994 and 2010, who agreed to participate in the research by signing the free and informed consent form. This work was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of Hospital das Clínicas/UFG, as a proposing institution, and Research Ethics Committee of the Co-participant Institution Hospital Araújo Jorge/Association for Combating Cancer in Goiás (ACCG) in attention to the resolution CNS: 466/2012 and its complementaries (1,940,921). Results: In our study, conducted in midwestern Brazil with a population of women with DCIS not selected for family history and involving 27 samples, 2 cases (7.4%) of the pathogenic TP53 R337H mutation were found. Conclusions: The present study showed that the prevalence of the founding variant c.1010G>A (R337H) in the TP53 gene in patients with DCIS proved to be considerably high, comparing the same rate found in other Brazilian studies for invasive breast carcinoma. This study warrants that there is a need for further studies testing not only the TP53 gene, but also other genes related to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome in DCIS. Although DCIS is a non-obligate precursor to invasive carcinoma, we highlighted the facts that strengthen the reflection on better genetic research in women with DCIS.

Published: February 2022

Objective: A systematic review was carried out using PRISMA methodology to evaluate indications, patient selection, surgery, and results associated with geometric compensation technique (GCT). Methods: Approved by Ethics Committee 1594/2018. A search was conducted for publications addressing patients with breast cancer undergoing extreme oncoplasty (EO) and/or reports of cases of patients with breast cancer undergoing GCT, split reduction technique (SRT), or techniques with same principles to evaluate indications and recent developments in literature. The research was carried out until October 12, 2020 in eight medical databases. The descriptors searched for in title/abstract were: (“Breast Neoplasm” AND “Mastectomy Segmental”) AND (Mammaplasty OR “Geometric Compensation” OR “Split Reduction” OR “Extreme Oncoplasty”). Results: In the systematic review, 3,584 articles were evaluated, 19 articles were selected, 243 patients undergoing GCT were found. Of the 19 articles, 6 need mention. The indication ranged from tumors close to skin in upper and outer quadrants to all quadrants and large (>5 cm) multifocal tumors, favoring breast conserving surgery instead of mastectomy, with high rates of free margins, low recurrence, and good aesthetic outcomes. Conclusions: GCT is an oncologically safe and aesthetically satisfactory option for the surgical removal of large tumors in breast or in unfavorable resection sites, which is the initial candidate for mastectomy. Regardless of the name used for its diffusion, split reduction, or geometric compensation, it is a really good surgical technique. It is important to organize literature because dissemination of GCT can benefit many women, otherwise it would be restricted to some surgeons.

Published: February 2022

This study aims to verify survival in female dogs with breast tumor by analyzing the expression of target proteins PIK3CA, ZEB1, and ZEB2 belonging to the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway through immunohistochemistry (IHC) test in a retrospective study. The samples were obtained from dogs with breast cancer, previously identified by standard histopathological analysis, from which tissue microarray (TMA) blocks were made, and then immunohistochemical analyzes (IHC) were carried out using the development kit “REVEAL Polyvalent HRP-DAB Detection System,” for the proteins previously mentioned. For the purpose of prognostic analysis, these dogs were monitored for 540 days after surgical resection and survival was related to protein expression using the histoscore (HS) method. The HS is a measure to convert the IHC into quantitative values, and it is based on the intensity of the staining and the percentage of stained cells, ranging from 0 to 300. Individually through the analysis of the IHC, it was observed in the PIK3CA protein that from the HS = 164 the survival was on average 189 days, for ZEB1, the HS = 100 the survival was on average 438 days, and on the protein ZEB2 with the HS = 157, the survival was on average 178 days. Thus, the high expression of PIK3CA and ZEB2 proteins was correlated with lower survival in the dogs. In all studied proteins, it was observed that HS > 100 was correlated with a significant reduction in overall survival (p>0.05). The lower survival in female dogs with breast cancer after surgical resection was related to low rates of expression of PIK3CA and ZEB2 and, therefore, these can be considered as prognostic markers reserved for breast cancer in female dogs.

Published: February 2022

This pilot study presents a new technique of hybrid marking of non-palpable breast lesion with surgical margins evaluation “in vivo,” which we referred to as FLuorescence And Seed for Hybrid Intraoperative Evaluation (FLASHIE). Seven women, with one lesion each, were submitted to a previous implantation of 125-iodine seed in the center of the suspected area and then were injected with indocyanine green (ICG). During surgery, an optonuclear probe was used to detect gamma radiation and fluorescence. Gamma detection mode was used to locate lesions, and then fluorescence mode, to analyze the ICG concentration, which allowed distinguishing a benign tumor and six malignant lesions. These lesions were confirmed by conventional pathological and immunohistochemical analysis. In the malignant positive cases, fluorescence was also used for the orientation of the excision of the tissue in order to obtain more adequate surgical margins. This new promising technique may prevent the persistence of post-surgery tumor residues.

Published: February 2022

Objectives: Breast cancer is the cancer with the highest incidence in women in Brazil. The revelation of this diagnosis is considered a crucial moment, responsible for uncertainties and even affecting the doctor–patient relationship. Although the communication of bad news is one of the most frequent practices among physicians, difficulties are common. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the communication in the diagnosis of breast cancer and the repercussions on the treatment, using the parameters as suggested by the Centro Avançado de Diagnóstico de Câncer de Mama (CORA/ HC-UFG) in Goiânia-GO. Methodology: This qualitative and integrative study was conducted in the following databases: PubMed, SciELO, and MedLine with six selected articles. The keywords used were “communication,” “diagnosis,” “breast cancer,” “adherence to treatment,” and “doctor–patient relationship.” Based on the results, a comparison was made with the one carried out in the CORA/HC-UFG. Results: Through the analysis of the articles, it was observed that the no tification of the diagnosis of cancer is considered a critical moment and how professionals notify patients directly interferes in the relationship of the patients with the diagnosis itself. Thus, it is up to the professionals to provide psychological and informative support at the time of diagnosis in order to reduce pessimistic feelings and to avoid abandoning the medical–hospital follow-up. In addition, when analyzing the care provided at CORA, it was noted that the adoption of a more humanized and multiprofessional communication, with the help of the psychological team, it was noticed, in agreement with the studies, a better acceptance and treatment adherence. Conclusion: The notification of cancer should be done in the most empathetic way possible, using techniques of psychology and communication, so that the patient receives information about his health situation in a welcoming manner. Furthermore, although the diagnostic communication is a medical act, the presence of a psychologist to support the patient has shown benefits.

Objective: Chemotherapeutic-induced peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common side effects of breast cancer treatment. Such a condition impacts on quality of life and has repercussions in treatment. The aim of this study was to correlate, by literature review, the risk factors and impact of peripheral neuropathy in women with breast cancer treated with taxanes. Methodology: This is a systematic review to assess the risk factors associated with peripheral neuropathy related to taxane. The literature review consisted of searching the MEDLINE database. The terms used were “neuropathy” or “chemotherapy” or “breast cancer” or “taxane,” using filters in accordance with the inclusion criteria. Only randomized controlled clinical trials were included in the selection, with full text available in the database, in English, published in the last 5 years, with women above 19 years old with breast cancer. Results: Six trials were included in this literature review. In total, 3,026 patients were evaluated and the main outcomes were to assess the main risk factors related to the shortand long-term effects of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Bandos et al. showed 41.9% of peripheral neuropathy within 2 years after starting treatment. Quintela et al. showed that patients with telomeric shortening had more toxicity related to paclitaxel. Hagoiwara et al. showed that peripheral neuropathy influenced lower scores on the quality of life scale. Ciruelos et al. showed greater delay and dose reduction in patients with neuropathy. Lam et al. showed a rate of neuropathy grade ≥1 in 67% of women. Conclusions: The results include presenting symptoms of peripheral neuropathy before the start of chemotherapy, the cumulative dose of the taxane agent, female gender, advanced age, body surface area, and hyperglycemia predispose to taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy. The heterogeneity between individuals with regard to susceptibility to taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy can be attributed to individual genetic differences.

Objective: To investigate the immunohistochemical expression of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in female invasive mammary carcinoma and to analyze the association of PD-L1 expression with clinicopathological characteristics, overall survival, and disease-free survival. Methodology: The expression of PD-L1 and its association with the main clinicopathological parameters have been evaluated in 232 cases. The Cox regression model was used to assess the possible association of PD-L1 expression with overall survival and disease-free survival. Results: A total of 58 cases (28.7%) were positive for PD-L1 expression. There is an association between PD-L1 expression with tumor size, negative hormone receptors, and triple-negative molecular subtype. Negative estrogen receptor and nodal status (≥10 positive lymph nodes) were associated with a reduction in overall survival, and the latter was associated with a lower disease-free survival. Luminal A tumor phenotype demonstrated a greater overall survival (p=0.042). Despite the significant association with unfavorable clinical and pathological characteristics in univariate and multivariate analyses, no significant correlation was observed between the expression of PD-L1 and overall or disease-free survival. Conclusions: Our data indicate that PD-L1 expression was associated with unfavorable clinical-pathological variables, such as greater tumor size, negative hormone receptors, and a greater number of metastatic nodes. No prognostic value was observed for the expression of PD-L1 in relation to overall survival or disease-free survival.

Plastic Plastic is a daily human need, excessive use of plastic has caused serious environmental problems and health problems for humans. The manufacturing process is not environmentally friendly and takes 10 - 50 years to decompose naturally by soil microbes. Therefore, the problem of plastic waste needs a solution, namely waste processing using the combustion pyrolysis method without air pollution which produces by-products in the form of liquids, steam, and solids that have economic value. In this study, Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic was processed by the pyrolysis method with variations in temperature (70,90,100,125,145) °C and processing time (30,60,90,120,150) minutes. For liquid output, the mass produced from PET (574 grams) is more than that of LDPE (197 grams) obtained at a temperature of 100 °C. The density of the oil produced by pyrolysis in Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is close to the density value of gasoline fuel of 731.250 kg/m3, while PETE plastic which is close to the density of gasoline is 767.213 kg/m3 and 784.615 kg/m3 the density is close to ethanol fuel. For solid output, the mass produced from PET (588 grams) is less than LDPE (1740 grams) The solid output quality of LDPE is more sturdy and strong than PET.

This study aimed to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics of raw milk produced by small producers in the Itamarati Settlement. The samples were collected in 10 different rural properties 3 times a week, during the month of July 2021, by students and teachers of the Faculty of Agrarian Sciences and placed in 1000 ml polyethylene pots and identified with numbering from 1 to 10 and transported under refrigeration in isothermal boxes containing ice sheets until the Food Technology Laboratory -TPA, of the Federal University of Grande Dourados (FUGD), to carry out the physicochemical analyzes such as alizarol stability, titratable acidity, relative density and cryoscopic index, fat, protein, defatted dry extract and defatted dry extract. After the analyzes were carried out, a visit was made to the Itamarati Settlement, with the producers, respecting all safety measures due to Covid-19, where the results were found in relation to the physical and chemical quality of the collected samples were presented and, afterward, they were discussed. if how this can influence the quality of milk and consequently the income of producers. Through the physical-chemical analysis, it was possible to identify that 90% of the analyzed samples were in accordance with the norms of IN 62, for all analyzed variables. Monitoring the quality of the producers' milk is of paramount importance because in many rural properties milk is the main source of income in some of them, it is even the only source of income for producers and their families.
Coronelismo e a propriedade dos meios de comunicação: a influência da mídia no poder político
Authors: Melo Vinicius Holanda , Feitosa Gustavo Raposo Pereira
Published: February 2022

O presente artigo visa investigar os usos políticos das concessões de rádio para titulares de mandatos eletivos após a redemocratização, tendo como eixo analítico o conceito de coronelismo e sua potencial renovação para o chamado “coronelismo eletrônico. Inicia-se a pesquisa analisando o conceito do “coronelismo” e as características do coronel desde a Primeira República brasileira. Em seguida, busca-se a compreensão do termo “coronelismo eletrônico” como um sistema de “barganha” política para manutenção dos poderes locais. Desse modo, pretende-se discutir os possíveis efeitos dos meios de produção da comunicação sobre os processos eleitorais do Brasil. A presente pesquisa será apresentada com base em estudo descritivo-analítico, utilizando-se o método dedutivo, com investigação documental e bibliográfica em livros e artigos dos autores de referência, relatórios, documentos oficiais e decisões judiciais. Conclui-se que a distribuição de concessões de rádio reproduz, em grande medida, as práticas reconhecidas como parte de um modelo político coronelista. Essas práticas violam a legislação e a constituição, revelam incompatibilidade com a democracia, contribuem com a preservação de práticas oligárquicas e dificultam a expressão de uma sociedade plural.
Judicialização da megapolítica e o argumento de Dworkin em xeque: o Supremo Tribunal Federal como foro de política
Authors: Sousa e Souza Caio Vinícius , Mendes da Costa Sebastião Patrício
Published: February 2022

Estudos empíricos evidenciam que, a partir da segunda metade do século XX, houve acentuado deslocamento de poder político das instâncias eleitas ao poder judiciário. Condições normativas, institucionais, interpretativas, sociológicas e, sobretudo, político-estratégicas explicam o quadro de expansionismo judicial até o seu estágio mais avançado: a judicialização da megapolítica. Nesse contexto, o poder judiciário para além de decidir sobre aspectos de bem-estar geral, passou a argumentar clara e evidentemente a partir de critérios político-pragmáticos. Nesse trabalho, defende-se que o argumento de Ronald Dworkin relacionado ao foro de princípio é inaplicável em comunidades cujas constituições são orientadas para política (policy) e não apenas para princípios (polity), como é o caso brasileiro. Argumenta-se que os princípios da democracia e da separação dos poderes restam vulnerados quando juízes constitucionais se utilizam de forma sincera de pautas políticas como elementos de razão judicial. Para tanto, utilizar-se-á no trabalho metodologia baseada em revisão de literatura.

From beacon to siren: the transformation of Brazil from racial utopia to racist/antisemitic dystopia
Authors: Klein Misha , Gherman Michel
Published: February 2022

Neste artigo, oferecemos reflexões sobre o significado dos usos de símbolos judaicos, israelenses e sionistas no contexto político contemporâneo brasileiro. Nesse contexto pretendemos também explorar os significados do aparecimento destes símbolos em protestos da “nova direita” brasileira a partir das manifestações de massa realizadas no país durante a segunda década do século vinte. Pretendemos aqui entender as relações de tais símbolos com grupos conservadores no país. É nossa intenção também discutir as relações dialéticas de ruptura e continuidade ocorridas no interior das instituições judaicas brasileiras, onde definições tradicionais de pertencimento e fronteiras são desafiadas quando setores da comunidade judaica apoiam efusivamente uma candidatura da extrema direita nas eleições de 2018, produzindo tensionamentos antes inimagináveis com grupos progressistas e de esquerda. Por fim, também buscamos aqui refletir sobre as mudanças de significado no conceito de raça no Brasil após a realização da Conferência de Durban em 2001 e seus ecos nas relações entre as populações judaicas e afrodescendentes no Brasil.

The internal friction method was used to study the behavior of the Zr – 1 wt. % Nb alloy after oxidation in air, nitriding in an atmosphere of technical nitrogen, and in situ carburization during measurements. In this case, carbon was deposited on the samples during measurements due to thermal decomposition of vapors of diffusion oil. The pressure in the system was about 10–2 Pa. The temperature dependence of the logarithmic decrement of damped bending vibrations with a frequency of 2.2 – 2.4  Hz was measured on specimens in the form of a rectangular plate 22 × 8 × 0.3 mm in size. The measurements were carried out at a constant heating rate of about 4 K/min from room temperature to 700 – 750 °C. The obtained temperature dependences of internal friction were divided into partial maxima using a special program. The program determines the temperatures of the relaxation maxima and calculates the effective activation energy using the Werth — Marx formula. The internal friction spectra in successive measurements on one sample changed due to the diffusion redistribution of the alloy components. The parameters of the relaxation maxima for carbon (153 – 159 kJ/mol), oxygen (203 – 207 kJ/mol) and nitrogen (235 – 238 kJ/mol) in the alloy under study, depending on the experimental conditions, have been established. Grain-boundary (Gb) impurity maxima due to these impurities were also found. The following activation energies were obtained: 173 – 179 kJ/mol for C-Gb, 216 – 219  kJ/mol for O-Gb and 222 – 229 kJ/mol for N-Gb. Impurity grain-boundary maxima associated with carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen were observed in each series of measurements. The activation energy of the grain-boundary maxima proper decreases monotonically from 202.4 to 194.5 kJ/mol in a series with oxidation in air (experiments 711 – 715), and remains about 200 kJ/mol in nitrided samples.
How to Translate a “Wild Tongue”: A New Perspective on Gloria Anzaldúa’s Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza
Authors: Cresci Karen Lorraine
Published: February 2022

Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza (1987) by Gloria Evangelina Anzaldúa, is a paradigmatic text when it comes to the representation of “mestiza” identities expressed through several tongues. The particular use of language in this book poses an interesting challenge in terms of translation. This article addresses the coexistence of languages for Spanish readers in three translations of the second chapter of Borderlands, entitled “Movimientos de rebeldía y las culturas que traicionan”. I focus on a comparative textual analysis of a collective translation of the chapter by Maria Serrano Gimenez, Rocio Macho Ronco, Hugo Romero Fernández Sancho and Álvaro Salcedo Rufo (2004), and the translations by Norma Elia Cantú (2015) and Carmen Valle (2016). The different approaches to the translation of multilingualism in these versions of Anzaldúa’s text are examined.
El bilingüe como doble en las memorias de Ariel Dorfman
Authors: Espino Barrera Tomás
Published: February 2022

Las obras memorísticas de Ariel Dorfman se centran en gran medida en los procesos de adquisición, pérdida y recuperación de lenguas por parte del autor a lo largo de sus varios exilios. De este modo, estos textos se pueden entender como “language memoirs” o “escrituras del yo translingüe”. La figura que preside estas narraciones en y acerca de dos lenguas es la del doble. En efecto, las descripciones de diferentes identidades según el idioma utilizado, así como las distintas estrategias de desdoble lingüístico en la autotraducción y dentro del propio texto, dominan las memorias en varios niveles. El presente trabajo, partiendo de los estudios acerca de la personalidad bilingüe de Grosjean, Klosty Beaujour y Pavlenko, tratará de investigar cómo la figura del doble lingüístico en el exilio vertebra las memorias de Ariel Dorfman.

In this work, we tested the possibility of determining the conditions for the occurrence of floods using available satellite data (Meteosat Second Generation products). For this, the data availability was checked, incl. availability for a specific time and territory (the Crimean peninsula and the adjacent waters of the Azov and Black Seas), which are ready-made products about precipitation and cloudiness, available on the EUMETSAT website. The process of obtaining and processing them with the help of specialized software packages for their study and possible subsequent compilation of an operational picture of the occurrence of floods has been worked out. The obtained results showed that these products can be used for flood detection, but a careful approach to their processing and mandatory comparison with data from other available information sources, including terrestrial ones, is required.

Authors: Алмухтар Омар А. Х. , Джабир Маджид С. , Цублова Елена Геннадьевна , Крылова Ирина Николаевна
Published: February 2022

В экспериментах на культуре S. aureus была исследована антибактериальная активность микотоксина патулина в чистом виде и в сочетании с наночастицами коллоидного золота. Установлено, что максимальный антибактериальный эффект наблюдается при совместном применении патулина и наночастиц золота в концентрациях 200 мкг/мл каждый. При этом зона ингибирования роста колонии S. aureus увеличивалась до 30,9 ± 1,5 мм (p < 0,001) в сравнении с раздельным действием патулина (15,80 ± 0,42 мм) (p < 0,001) и наночастиц золота (19,67 ± 1,32 мм) (p < 0,001). На фоне действия патулина, наночастиц золота и при их совместном использовании отмечали нарушение морфологии мембран, протопласта и снижение тургора клеток бактерий. В механизме антибактериального действия патулина и начночастиц золота значимым элементом является их окислительная активность.

Изучение влияния пикамилона (50 мг/кг внутривенно) на мозговое кровообращение крыс в условиях сочетанной сосудистой патологии мозга и сердца позволило установить, что в этих условиях препарат вызывает существенное увеличение мозгового кровотока (на 38 %). Менее выраженное увеличение кровотока (на 13 %) наблюдается после экспериментального инфаркта миокарда. Анализ механизма цереброваскулярного эффекта пикамилона в условиях глобальной преходящей ишемии головного мозга показал, что хлорные каналы ГАМКА-рецепторов участвуют в реализации сосудорасширяющего эффекта препарата. Вместе с тем, нимодипин при сочетанной сосудистой патологии мозга и сердца не только не увеличивает, но даже ухудшает церебральную гемодинамику. Следовательно, в условиях наиболее тяжелой сосудистой патологии, а именно сочетанной, ГАМКА-рецепторная система сосудов мозга играет более значимую роль в регуляции мозгового кровообращения по сравнению с медленными кальциевыми каналами.
Conducting a Global Quadruple Aim Thematic Analysis of Telemedicine Performance in Rural Indigenous Populations and Evidence-Based Recommendations for Improvement
Authors: Naqvi Hussain
Published: February 2022

As telehealth is a growing form of healthcare delivery across the world, particularly after the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s impact on patient populations particularly in aboriginal and rural communities boasts many questions. As the health disparities between aboriginal groups living in rural areas on reserves and the rest of the Canadian demographics remain to be mountainous, telemedicine is often seen as the new way forward in reducing these healthcare gaps.

Presently, much research has been conducted on these cohorts, particularly in the health equity atmosphere. However, much of this research lacks a comprehensive framework or tool in which it analyzes the efficacy of outcomes. In this review paper, the quadruple aim – the ideal standard of care which North American health systems seek to conform to – will be used to analyze telemedicine performance, and assert evidence-based recommendations for improvement.  

Therefore, this paper seeks to conduct a thematic analysis on the various issues and barriers to telemedicine delivery and usage in aboriginal populations with respect to the quadruple aim as well as identifying evidence-based solutions to alleviate some of these concerns and bolster care.
Self-Repairing Technique Based on Microcapsules for Cementitious Composites- A Review
Authors: H. Mahdi Zainab , Y. Al Goody Esraa , J. Qasim Tabarek
Published: February 2022

Self-repairing technology based on micro-capsules is an efficient solution for repairing cracked cementitious composites. Self-repairing based on microcapsules begins with the occurrence of cracks and develops by releasing self-repairing factors in the cracks located in concrete. Based on previous comprehensive studies, this paper provides an overview of various repairing factors and investigative methodologies. There has recently been a lack of consensus on the most efficient criteria for assessing self-repairing based on microcapsules and the smart solutions for improving capsule survival ratios during mixing. The most commonly utilized self-repairing efficiency assessment indicators are mechanical resistance and durability. On the other hand, Nondestructive methods have been widely used to visualize and assess cementitious composites, self-repairing behavior. However, certain issues remain, such as crack spread behavior, repairing agent kinetics on discrete crack surfaces, and the influence of inserted capsules on the mechanical characteristics of self-repaired cementitious composites, all of which require more investigations.

Authors: Ismael Mohammed , Fattah Mohammed Y. , Jasim Abbas F.
Published: February 2022

This paper focused on the stone matrix asphalt (SMA) technology that was developed essentially to guard against rutting distress. For this procedure, fibers play a racy role in stabilizing and preventing the drain down problem caused by the necessity of high binder content coupled with their strengthening effect. A set of specimens with cylindrical and slab shapes were fabricated by inclusions jute, polyester, and carbon fibers. For each type, three contents of 0.25%, 0.5%, and 0.75% by weight of mixture were added by lengths of 5, 7.5, and 10 mm. The prepared mixtures were tested to gain the essential pertained parameters discriminated by the values of drain down, Marshall quotient, rut depth, and dynamic stability. It has appeared that the fibers rate of 0.5% and 7.5 mm length is much appropriate to yield the best performance of modified mixtures. At these values, carbon fibers recorded the highest increase level of rutting resistance and dynamic stability by 53% and 100%, respectively while, jute fibers exhibited the lowest improvement by only 34% and 63%, respectively; nevertheless, they produced mixtures having the lowest drain down value. Regarding the index of plastic stiffness, polyester fibers embedded mixtures occupied the first rank of increasing by 38%.

The Narayani is the most important typical tropical river of Nepal. It has seven tributaries called the Saptagandaki and drains central Nepal between Langtang and Dhaulagiri himal. The Narayani river drains the edge of Chitwan National Park for down the Trivenighat section of narayani. The temperature of water at river was found ranging between 10.3-27.5°C. The maximum temperature was recorded at station Golaghat, the junction of Narayani and Rapti river in summer and lowest temperature of station was at Benighat, the junction between Trisuli and Budigandaki in winter season. Gandaki river system was found to be the best habitat for fresh water fishes due to its diverse habitat and ecotype. A total of 86 species were recorded from Narayani and Rapti river which belong to 18 family and 46 genera. Economically important fishes found are Tor tor, Tor putitara, Labeo agra, Labeo dero, Wallago attu, Bagarius bagarius, Anguilla bengalensis etc. During the study Tor tor, endangered species and some other nationally threatened species were also recorded from Gandaki river system.
Origin of Mass
Authors: Paudel Eak Raj
Published: February 2022

Thousands of physicists are working night and day to solve an even more fundamental problem. How do particles acquire mass? Although many of us would like to have less mass, particle theorists find it extremely difficult to explain how we have any at all. In this paper I attempt to explain the formation of mass by different approaches which may clarify the concept of mass.
