MOBILE CLOUD COMPUTING SERVICES AUTHENTICATION SCHEME
Authors: A. Abdulrahman Safana , F. Al-Gailani M.
Published: December 2022

Because of the rapid growth of cloud computing and the expansion of mobile phone users in recent years, mobile cloud computing has attracted wide attention. In the mobile cloud, wireless computing networks are the basics of sharing data between mobile devices and cloud services. Since air is the communication medium, it must be properly protected; otherwise, it will be subject to a variety of security threats, for example, attacks from middle-man, identity tracking, etc... Furthermore, mobile devices are limited in storage, resources, and computing powers. Hence, designing an efficient and secure balance of authentication schemes is extremely important. First of all, a multi-factor authentication scheme based on biometric (fingerprint information), hash function, and fuzzy vault algorithm is presented in that paper. Secondly, the Validation and Analysis tool of AVISPA Security was approved. Thirdly, the security of the scheme proposed is compared to other related schemes.
Restriction of Legal Capacity in the Slovak Law and Related Court Practice
Authors: Lanczová Ingrid
Published: December 2022

In the first part of the article, the author makes an excursion into history and gives the reader information about the legal capacity of persons in Slovak legal history. This part includes information about feudal law, the first related codification of 1877, the Czechoslovak Civil Code of 1950, and the Czechoslovak Civil Code of 1964. Further on, the author presents the up-to-date effective regulation encompassed in the Slovak Civil Code and in the procedural act, i.e., the Act on Non-Contentious Civil Procedure. At the center of attention is the abolishment of deprivation of legal capacity, introduced in 2016. The author reasons that this abolition was a response to the caselaw of the European Court of Human Rights and to the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Inevitable for this article, were the practice and experiences of The Office of the Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities. From the practical point of view, the most important is the last part of the article, where the author lists some examples of good and bad practices of the Slovak Courts concerning legal capacity. The author deems it necessary to pay attention to this important topic. The improvement of the legal position of adults with disabilities definitely contributes to legal certainty and the rule of law in modern societies. Last but not least, it reflects the degree of social forwardness.
Conflict of Values Subject to Mediation Proceedings
Authors: Broński Włodzimierz
Published: December 2022

The aim of this study was to reflect scientifically on the possibility of resolving value conflicts through mediation proceedings and on methods of resolving them. First, the relationship between law and values was discussed, stating that law and values form an interconnected system of vessels. When it comes to conflict resolution through mediation, law and values provide a mediator with a normative-axiological framework to communicate with the conflicting parties and assist in creating adequate solutions. A deeper analysis of the nature of value conflicts led to an observation that they are caused by divergent value systems upheld by the people involved, but that the difference in preferred values alone does not necessarily lead to conflict. A factor that is a catalyst for value conflicts is a determined imposition of one's own values on others, without tolerance towards the others’ axiology. The final section of the article emphasises that mediation is a legal and values-based instrument, but at the same time it offers an advantage of minimally formalised proceedings. This is why mediation provides an advantageous space for resolving values conflicts, when led by a professional mediator. Based on the assumption that values are non-negotiable, three possible ways for a mediator to intervene in a values conflict were identified, i.e. avoiding defining the problem in terms of values, seeking an overarching value, reframing the parties' perception of the object of the dispute and of the opposing party through the mediator’s sharing their own experience of values.
Tax Instruments for Supporting Persons with Disabilities as Seen in the Example of the Rehabilitation Relief in the Personal Income Tax
Authors: Święch-Kujawska Katarzyna
Published: December 2022

Problems of persons with disabilities should be examined also at a legal angle. Creation of legal instruments of support for such persons is absolutely crucial. With the assumption that tax law is one of the more intrusive branches of law, which on the other hand may serve non-fiscal, including social goals, this study analyses those instruments which may be elements of such support. The author concentrates on regulations of the personal income tax and the rehabilitation relief regulated by them as a tax credit that is fundamental for this research area. Special focus is given to interpretation dilemmas that accompany the application of these regulations, which may greatly limit their efficiency. The analysis of the normative material and views of legal scholars and commentators and the judicature has allowed a number of conclusions, de lege lata and de lege ferenda alike.

Objetivo: investigar a capacidade tecnológica de Micro, Pequenas e Médias Empresas (MPME) Brasileiras considerando a utilização dos princípios e práticas da abordagem enxuta. Metodologia/Abordagem: pesquisa exploratória de natureza quantitativa e empírica com finalidade descritiva baseada em uma amostra não probabilística e intencional de 59 empresas com até 499 empregados pertencentes à indústria metalmecânica localizadas no estado do Rio de Janeiro. Resultados: confirmam a literatura ao revelarem a adesão incipiente das empresas pesquisadas ao pensamento enxuto e às práticas dele decorrentes, tornando as decisões de produção mais reativas do que proativas e configurando um quadro de baixa capacidade tecnologica e de inovação. Limitações: pesquisa restrita a empresas de menor porte de um setor econômico especifico, ainda que relevante por seu dinamismo que favorece encadementos produtivos com outros setores econômicos, além de benefícios para a economia regional. Originalidade/Valor do Artigo: existência de poucos estudos sobre a aplicação dos princípios e práticas da abordagem enxuta em MPME em geral, e em MPME industriais, especialmente no Brasil, e que ainda correlacionem capacidade tecnologica e capacidade de inovação.
CANINE PSYCHIATRY: THE IMPORTANCE OF APPROACHES TO ANIMAL PSYCHOPATHOLOGIES
Authors: Furtado Gil Dutra , Da Silva Darla Barboza , Sobral Felipe Eduardo da Silva
Published: December 2022

Animals exhibit analogous behavioral conditions that are equivalent to certain human psychiatric illnesses. Animal psychiatry is a growing field as more information about animals is uncovered, such as their ability to understand and interact with their guardians as well as their environment. The most commonly reported psychiatric disorders in companion animals such as dogs and cats are generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, separation anxiety disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. The behavioral disorders of animals have great similarity with human psychiatry (such as generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, impulse control disorders and panic disorder), and thus, models developed through scientific work with animals, may help in the understanding of human psychiatry, increasing the importance of veterinary psychiatric actions, bringing elucidations for the behavioral pathologies of pets and providing elements of the scientific basis for the advancement of human psychiatric actions. Problem behaviors are often the result of how an animal manages to interconnect specific factors such as how they reflect, how they feel, the genetic influence of each individual, and the environmental influences to which they are exposed. By taking these aspects into account and moving away from only direct description diagnoses of pathologies, and focusing on emotional and cognitive causes, we can diagnose, treat, and manage behavioral pathologies in pets, as well as generate valuable information for the many areas of psychiatric practice. The veterinary psychiatrist must evaluate physical disorders that may lead to or exacerbate abnormal behaviors so that these are not mistakenly dismissed. From there, noting the patients' ethological changes, the focus should shift to mental and emotional health, ranging from an assessment of normal behavior to the diagnosis of mental and emotional disorders, addressing emotions of anxiety and frustration, as well as other disorders. For each of these situations, actions such as behavior modification, management of the animal's environment, training, and, when necessary, use of medication, are methodologies that the Pv professional can and should use to seek to maintain the patient's well-being. The owner's concerns should never be overlooked, including management problems, aggression, affective disorder, elimination disorder, abnormal and repetitive behaviors, and ageing-related problems. In all these cases, help should be offered to the guardians with theoretical and practical actions focused on normal and abnormal behavior in dogs and cats from the point of view of emotion and cognition; provides protocols for behavior modification, doses and indications of drugs, in order to assist in the management of the case.
WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR RESEARCH? A FRAMEWORK FOR CLEAR ECOLOGICAL RELEVANCE
Authors: Costa Yuri , Nunes José A.C.C. , El-Hani Charbel Niño , Barros Francisco
Published: December 2022

How to clarify the relevance of research is a challenge for ecologists since this is not a trivial question for any scientist but may be especially difficult for early-career researchers, who often find more difficulty in providing answers that are synthetic, logical, and cogent. However, a clear answer to this question is critical for obtaining funding and is increasingly required by journal editors in order to send papers to review, let alone to attract readers to the published paper. Here, we argue that relevance should in fact appear in all steps of ecological research, including project preparation (e.g., for funding requests), manuscript submissions, oral communications, and also in media releases. Herein we discuss a framework for ecological relevance based on five key elements: clear connections with theory, knowledge gap, novelty, methodological innovation, and applicability. There are different ways of combining these elements, but in order to make the relevance of a study clear, ecologists should make explicit how these elements are connected with their main research question. Journal editors and grant agencies or donors decide on the relevance of the submitted works or proposals. We argue that categorically deciding whether or not an article is relevant is a delicate issue, particularly if one considers how scientific works can range from a gradient of no relevance to extreme relevance. We hope that with this simple “must-have argument list”, ecologists, especially in early careers, can enhance and show the relevance of their work in improving the field of ecology and, ultimately, human society.
Social Class and Self-Concept of Marginalized Adolescents
Authors: Fazny Bella Yugi , Saputra Randi , Lestari Chika
Published: December 2022

The current study aimed to describe adolescents' social class and self-concept at the "Khatulistiwa Berbagi” learning house. The present study used mixed methods combining quantitative and qualitative approaches. The data collection was conducted during the even semester in the academic year of 2022/2023, with 22 marginalized adolescents participating. All participants come from a family with a monthly income of up to IDR 1.800.000 (lower social class). Social class data was gathered using Interviews, observation and documentation studies. While data regarding self-concept was collected using the Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (TSCS). The current research used descriptive statistics and triangulation as data analysis techniques. The study's results found that parents' socio-economic class has a significant relationship with the formation of self-concept images of marginal adolescents. As a whole, the findings of this study revealed that 73.66% of the self-concept of marginalized adolescents is in the highly negative category. A negative self-concept is associated with the inability to control one's emotions and tends to have deviant behavior. Collaborative activities between parents, teachers, counselors, psychologists, and social welfare institutions are recommended to achieve the self-concept developmental milestone of marginalized adolescents.

BUDAYA LITERASI MEDIA TELEVISI
Authors: Anwas Oos M.
Published: December 2022

Pesatnya kemajuan industri televisi menuntut masyarakat memiliki budaya literasi. Tulisan ini bertujuan mengkaji: 1) hakekat literasi media televisi, 2) rasionalisasi perlunya memiliki budaya literasi, dan 3) langkah-langkah membudayakan literasi media televisi. Literasi media televisi adalah kemampuan dalam berperilaku terhadap siaran televisi mulai dari memilih, menganalisis, menyikapi, dan merespon siaran televisi secara sehat dan benar. Budaya literasi bermanfaat untuk menangkal dampak negatif dan mengambil manfaat positif siaran televisi sebagai media pendidikan dan informasi. Budaya literasi media televisi diperlukan karena siaran televisi adalah bukan peristiwa sebenarnya, akan tetapi hasil produksi dan rekayasa industri media. Budaya literasi perlu diarahkan sebagai gerakan masyarakat secara nasional dengan mengoptimalkan semua potensi dan partisipasi masyarakat yang dilakukan secara bertahap dan berkesinambungan. Adapun bentuknya dapat dilakukan melalui: membangun kesadaran terhadap siaran televisi, menanamkan pendidikan literasi di sekolah, menyelenggarakan pelatihan dan pembinaan literasi, membangun keluarga peduli siaran televisi, pemberdayaan lembaga kemasyarakatan, membentuk komunitas literasi melalui jejaring sosial, menyelengarakan lomba kreativitas literasi media, dan memberikan reward kepada masyarakat yang dinilai berhasil dalam membudayakan literasi media televisi.
MODEL PEMBELAJARAN DENGAN TIK DI SEKOLAH KATEGORI PERINTIS
Authors: Warsihna Jaka
Published: December 2022

Pemanfaatan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi (TIK) untuk pendidikan sudah dilaksanakan hampir sebagian besar sekolah di Indonesia. Bentuk pemanfaatannya sangat beragam mulai dari yang sederhana sampai pada tahap maju. Bagaimana guru memanfaatkan TIK untuk pembelajaran di kelas dan model pembelajaran dengan TIK seperti apa agar seluruh siswa dapat belajar secara optimal. Pembelajaran yang mengintegrasikan TIK di sekolah sangat beragam. Keberagaman ini disebabkan oleh empat hal yaitu kebijakan, infrastruktur, bahan ajar berbasis TIK, dan kualitas SDM. Berdasarkan keempat hal tersebut, sekolah dapat dikelompokkan menjadi empat kategori yaitu kategori rintisan, dasar, menengah, dan mapan. Sekolah kategori rintisan adalah sekolah baru memulai menggunakan TIK untuk pembelajaran. Model pembelajaran berbasis TIK untuk sekolah kategori rintisan adalah berpusat pada siswa. Pembelajaran yang berpusat pada siswa harus memperhatikan isi pembelajaran, strategi pembelajaran, lingkungan kelas, sistem penilaian, dan teknologi yang tersedia. Hal kedua yang perlu dilakukan oleh guru adalah pembelajaran aneka sumber. Pada umumnya guru belum memanfaatkan lingkungan dan teknologi sebagai sumber belajar. Ketika hal ini sudah dimanfaatkan, maka proses pembelajaran menjadi lebih alami, sosial, peran guru sudah berubah sebab guru bukan satu-satunya sumber informasi, dan siswa akan lebih aktif karena terlibat dari awal sampai akhir baik perencaaan sampai dengan evaluasi.
The Role of Working Bodies of Parliaments in Legislative Procedures
Authors: Trajkovska-Hristovska Jelena
Published: December 2022

The demand for rationalization of the work of parliaments and their greater efficiency leads to an increased activity of their working bodies. In the modern world, the task and the role of the working bodies of parliament (committees and commissions) in the legislative procedure is very important. As part of the structure of the modern parliaments, the working bodies are competent to carry out procedures that precede the enactment of the submitted legislative proposal (bill). The work of the working bodies (committees and commissions) in the legislative procedure covers the review of the proposed law and its amendments from the aspect of their purposefulness and from the aspect of fulfilling the formal requirements that the bill should fulfil, giving opinions and suggestions about the proposed solutions in the legislative proposal, and submission of amendments in order to improve the legal text. This paper will elaborate on the position and role of the working bodies in the legislative process in the USA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland. A special review will be given to the types of working bodies involved in the legislative process in the parliaments of the aforementioned countries, their manner of work and their influence in the improvement of the bill.
The Impact of the Native Speaker Ideal on Learners’ Motivation in an EFL Context
Authors: Araíz-Carrillo Patricia Paola
Published: December 2022

In the present time, English is widely used as the common language for global interaction. In other words, English is used by both native and non-native speakers of the language to communicate with a variety of individuals with different backgrounds, cultures, and first languages. Nevertheless, in language education, the native speaker ideal is still the model of reference for performance. This case study was concerned with examining the effects and influence of the native speaker ideal on students’ motivation in Central Mexico. The participants for this study consisted of 6 female college students. They were enrolled in English classes at the University of Guanajuato as part of their undergraduate program at the time of the study. An interview of 10 base questions was designed to gather data. The results conclude that the native speaker ideal usually has a negative influence on students’ motivation. For this reason, it would be valuable to approach English as an international language instead.

The Term Ṣāliḥ in Abū Dāwūd's al-Sunan: An Evaluation in Terms of Authenticity
Authors: TANRIVERDİ Mustafa
Published: December 2022

This article examines the degree of authenticity of the narration material as defined by Abū Dāwūd’s concept of ṣāliḥ. Although he answered some of the questions about Sunan that were directed to him in a small treatise he wrote for the Meccans, some aspects of the book remain ambiguous. The term ṣāliḥ and the scope of authenticity are perhaps the most important of these. Because Abū Dāwūd mentioned this concept in his letter, he did not explain what he meant. This situation caused the ḥadīth scholars after his death to present some different opinions around this term and to argue about what kind of meaning Abū Dāwūd attributed to the concept of ṣāliḥ in the categorization of ḥadīths in terms of authenticity. Considering the term’s emergence, contrary to popular belief, this study contends that the term ṣāliḥ does not only cover ṣaḥīḥ (sound) or ḥasan (fair) ḥadīths but also refers to a wide level of authenticity that includes ḍaʿīf (weak) ḥadīths, although not severe.
Mustafa Sabri Efendi’nin Kaderle İlgili Bazı Ayetlere Dair Yorumlarının Mukayeseli Tahlili
Authors: ÇELİKEL Fatih
Published: December 2022

Mustafa Sabri Efendi, Şeyhülislamlık görevini üstlenmiş, son yüzyılın önemli İslam âlimlerinden biridir. Oldukça çalkantılı bir hayat süren Mustafa Sabri Efendi’nin kader konusundaki görüleri dikkat çekicidir. Mustafa Sabri Efendi, kader mevzusunda önceleri Mâturîdî çizgiyi takip etmiş ancak özellikle Mısır’a yerleştikten sonra Eş’âr’î anlayışı benimsemiştir. Kader konusunda temel referansının Kur'ân olduğunun altını ısrarla çizmiş, görüşüne dayanak olarak gördüğü ayetleri büyük bir özgüvenle tefsir etmiştir. Ayetlere getirdiği yorumlarla bir yandan takip etmiş olduğu çizginin hakkâniyetini ispatlamaya çalışırken diğer taraftan ilgili ayetlerin Mâturîdî anlayışla tefsir edilmesinin hatalı olduğunu ortaya koymaya çalışmıştır. Bu çalışmada Mustafa Sabri Efendi’nin temel referans olarak gördüğü ayetlere dair yorumları, çeşitli tefsirler ve özellilke bu konuya hasredilmiş çalışmalar üzerinden mukayeseli bir bakış açısıyla tahlil edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Başta Muhammed Zâhid el-Kevserî ve Elmalılı Hamdi Yazır olmak üzere bazı isimlerin Mustafa Sabri Efendi’nin yorumları ile çatıştığı görülmüştür. Bu iki yaklaşımdan genel durumlar itibariyle Muhammed Zâhid el-Kevserî'nin yaklaşımının metodolojik açıdan daha isabetli olduğu görülmüştür.

A Connotative Analysis of Characters in George Orwell’s Animal Farm
Authors: MBON Armel , MABIALA Garice Revaud IBOUANGA
Published: December 2022

This article analyses the characters’ connotations in George Orwell’s political allegory, Animal Farm. Connotations generally fall into three categories: positive, neutral, and negative, categories that are clearly displayed when studying its characters. So, with the three kinds of characters, men, animals, and birds, that are found in this allegory, there are some that have positive connotations, like Old Major and Snowball, to quote but two, and others, negative connotations, like Napoleon and Squealer. Those who are neutral, like the Sheep, unwillingly lean towards antivalues for a simple reason: Animal Farm is, above all, a dystopia. Today, this allegory remains topical because it discusses the ever-growing abuses of political leaders over impotent peoples, but it is a hackneyed work, just like its themes. However, it arouses a lively interest when one touches on the figurative meaning of its characters. To do this, a semantic approach is used.

Determining the essence, correlation and types of objects of law and objects of legal relations is considered one of the most debatable issues in the theory of law, having significant theoretical and practical significance. This article analyzes the constitutional, subsoil and gemological legislation regulating relations arising out from material gemological objects. The objective of this study is to understand intersectoral aspects of gemstones of natural origin, having been considered as an object of legal relations. The methodology comprised of dialectical, comparative legal, formal legal (dogmatic), formal logical, critical legal, systemic-structural and systemic-functional methods. This is the first time when geological-legal science has proposed the foundation of a dualistic theory addressing the multi-level structure of objects of gemological legal relations. It consists of the symbiosis of gemologically-significant actions and goods. The article also proposes general legal definition (an object of gemological law, an object of legal regulation of gemological law, an object of gemological legal relations), and special-legal definition (amber-bearing subsoil, natural gemstones) aimed at developing and improving the national gemological law.

Authors: Aberšek Boris , Kordigel Aberšek Metka
Published: December 2022

Evolution in computer and other information communication technologies have made also possibilities to develop intelligente computer-aided learning tools for enhanced learning. Today, most researchers in the field of educational technology seem to be preoccupied with either heuristic, the development of Artificial Intelligence application, or the epistemology, philosophy concerned with the nature and scope (limitations) of knowledge and representation or varius learning theories such as constructivism and conectionism by computer program. The enthusiasm to develop technologicall advanced learning tools resulted in technologies with limited application. The need to develop simple computer-based tools to assist instruction and demonstrate its impressiveness to enhance learning is most important, but those tools desperetly need to be designed with epistemological (didactical) knowledge and integrated into a pedagogical framework.
The paper presents researc connected with the design and use of an interactive computer-aided learning tool for enhanced learning and the impact of an interactive computer-aided e-learning tool on students learning achievement. The study was motivated by the need to evaluate the use and effectiveness of computer-aided learning applications as they are used in the instructional environment. The mayor research questions that guided this study are: Does the e-learning tool have a measurable effect on students learning? And what is the impact of the e-learning tool usage on students’ performance? The results of the study proof the impact of usage e-learning tools on students’ performance at knowledge assessment. While using the prepared e-learning tool, the score and the time of complete interactive session were measured.
Key words: education, ICT, intelligente learning tools.
COMPUTER SUPPORTED SCHOOL CHEMICAL EXPERIMENT IN COMPLEX APPROACH – “ACIDIC BUBBLES”
Authors: Braniša Jana , Jenisová Zita , Bílek Martin
Published: December 2022

Digital technologies are used in experimental practice under school conditions mainly for data statistic processing, computer modeling of natural principles and supporting the real experiments by computer, so that the measurement process can occur simultaneously with data recording during experiments. This study is focused on the use of computer within real experimenting. We have chosen the experiment “Acidic bubbles” as an example of running the computer-aided real experiment. Solubility of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the liquid is influenced by characteristics of the solvent and the solute, pressure and temperature. The aim of the experiments is to show changes in pH values in water/carbon dioxide (H2O/CO2) mixtures (differing in various CO2 content) in time and temperature. Experiments confirmed that the temperature increased in relation to increasing pH. CO2 solubility decreased along with increasing temperature and the resulting lower concentration of CO2 in the mixture also caused the reduction of the carbonic acid (H2CO3) concentration. Moreover, the acid was decomposed by the influence of the higher temperature. Advantages of using the measuring systems can be seen in their supportive functions leading to investigative experimental activities of students, which are gradually disappearing from both primary and secondary schools for various reasons. Advantages of this approach are increasing by applications connected with everyday life products as in presented example “Soda-stream” device in the kitchen.

Purpose. Development of a methodology for determining the level of actual losses and dilution of ore based on the identified patterns of the influence of occurring ore body elements and the stope parameters when mining thin slope deposits using a system for delivering ore by the blasting force. Methods. The task set is solved using an integrated approach, including the analysis of literary sources and the existing practical experience on the issues of losses and dilution, conducting experimental-industrial experiments in the conditions of the Akbakai deposit to assess the recommended method effectiveness for determining the values of excess losses and dilution of ore, geomechanical assessment of the mass using the methods of limit equilibrium, numerical and probabilistic analyses. Findings. A methodology for determining losses and dilution when mining thin slope deposits using a system for delivering ore by the blasting force is proposed, which makes it possible to predict excess losses and dilution coefficients arising from stope roof caving and incomplete ore delivery. The actual losses and dilution of ores in the Akbakai deposit have been determined based on the proposed methodology and instrumental surveys. The developed methodology for determining the values of excess losses and dilution makes it possible to take preliminary measures to prevent the stope roof caving with the complete ore mass delivery using the blasting force. Originality. New dependences have been revealed for the conditions of the Akbakai deposit: logarithmic – the value of dilution depending on the angle of the ore body occurrence; polynomial – the stope maximum span depending on the ore body dip angle; exponential – ore losses depending on the angle of the ore body occurrence. Practical implications. The practical significance, confirmed in the course of pilot-experimental work, is in minimizing the percentage of loss and dilution of the useful component when mining thin slope ore deposits using a sublevel blast-hole stoping system with an open stope space, which makes it possible to reduce the cost of the produced mineral.

Purpose. The research purpose is to study the peculiarities of chemical pollution of the Nadiya mine rock dumps in the Chervonohrad Mining District, depending on the relief conditions and slope exposure, as well as to analyze the general trends in the distribution of chemical elements compared to the natural background. Methods. The chemical pollution differentiation of the Nadiya mine rock dumps at the level of ecotopes is studied on the basis of dispersion analysis; multidimensional ordination of ecotopes in the space of geochemical indicators – based on the Principle Component Analysis; a typological scheme of mine rock dump ecotopes is constructed based on discriminant analysis; statistical processing of chemical pollution parameters. Findings. It has been determined that the level of chemical pollution of the Nadiya mine rock dumps is characterized by significant heterogeneity even within the same slope exposure. Similarity in the distribution of chemical elements makes it possible to distinguish 6 of their associations, the main of which are I (Mg, Ca, S) and II (Al, Fe, K, Si). An analysis of the dependence between the chemical element concentrations indicates a close link between many parameters. It has been revealed that the closest dependence on the anthropogenic load intensity is demonstrated by such elements as Mg, Pb, Sn, Fe, Al, Cu, P, Ni, Zn. It has been determined that the difference between the ecotopes of different dump exposures is explained mainly by the level of Ca and Al concentration. Originality. It has been revealed for the first time that the Nadiya mine rock dumps of the Chervonohrad Mining District are characterized by an ecological space, which is assessed on the basis of the ordination of ecotopes on the axes of complex geochemical gradients of the environment. The typological scheme of mine rock dumps reflects the gradient of soil cover chemical pollution compared to the natural background. Practical implications. By determining the geochemical conditions of ecotopes in a certain period of time, it is possible to identify their position in the ecological-cenotic space of dump vegetation, as well as to predict the stability and possible changes in the vegetation cover as a result of various forms of anthropogenic impact.

Lifetimes of the upper states of excited oxygen atoms corresponding to transitions to the common lower state in the case of the emission lines around 777 nm and 844 nm have been estimated by measuring the line intensities as a function of the delay time between the Q-switching of the laser and the opening of the window of the ICCD. In the case of the emission line around 777 nm, resulting from the transitions from the three very closely spaced upper energy levels, 2s2 2p3 (4S0) 3p5P3 (777.194 nm), 2s2 2p3 (4S0) 3p5P2 (777.417 nm) and 2s2 2p3 (4S0) 3p5P1 (777.539 nm) to the common lower energy level 2s2 2p3 (4S0) 3s5S2, the lifetime was measured to be 253 ns. Similarly, in the case of the emission-line around 844 nm, resulting from the transitions from the three very closely spaced upper energy levels 2s2 2p3 (4S0) 3p3P0 (844.625 nm), 2s2 2p3 (4S0) 3p3P2 (844.636 nm) and 2s2 2p3 (4S0) 3p3P1 (844.676 nm) to the common lower energy level 2p3 (4S0) 3s3S1, the lifetime was measured to be 278 ns by this technique. The measured lifetimes in our experiment, for both 777 nm and 844 nm atomic transition lines of oxygen (O), are almost nine times higher than the theoretical value. Self-absorption and radiation trapping are possible mechanisms responsible for the mismatch between measured and intrinsic lifetimes. Last but not least, utilizing the TR-LIBS technique is yet another incredible application to estimate the prolonged lifetime of closely spaced excited states of an atom in the presence of self-absorption and radiation trapping. The average plasma cooling temperature (excitation temperature) lifetime was found to be 1183 ns, which is compatible with the previously reported values.

Bloodstream infections (BSI) are serious, life-threatening, and critical clinical conditions with high global human morbidity and mortality rates. This study aimed to determine the Gram-negative bacterial profiles and antimicrobial resistance patterns of acute bloodstream infections in rural patients. Three hundred forty-six blood samples were collected and analyzed with the BD BactecTM FX40 automated culture system, selective media culture, and biochemical parameters. Finally, antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the disk diffusion method. The most common age group affected out of 51 cases was 41-60 years, with 20 patients (39.22%), and 1-15 years, with 2 patients (3.92%). Male patients were more susceptible (66.67%) than female patients. Among the isolates, E. coli was the most common, with 23 cases (45.1%); Cephradine was the most resistant antibiotic, and Imipenem was the most sensitive. Multiple drug-resistant pathogens were one of the most notable findings in our work. Our study will surely provide the best guide for properly treating antibacterial-resistant bacterial diseases and minimizing their critical mortality and morbidity.

Published: December 2022

An experiment was conducted during 2020-21 at Jute Research Substation, Jashore, to study growth and seed yield response of kenaf to different sowing times. Seeds were sown from 15 July to 1 October, an interval of 15 days, as treatment variables under RCBD design with three replications. Greater seed yield was obtained from the 1st September sowing, which was at par with 15 September and 15 August sowings values. So, maximum seed production of kenaf may be ensured with optimum seed sowing between the 1st and 15thof September.
