Hipotipoza prostora i karaktera u opusu F. M. Dostojevskog / Hypotyposis of Space and Character in the Work of F. M. Dostoevsky
Authors: Džafić Šeherzada
Published: December 2022

One of the key topoi in the work of F. M. Dostoevsky is the images of space, which with their impressiveness and intrigue depict the action like it is happening before our very eyes. This way, Dostoevsky brings hypotyposis of space through which, in addition to clear ideas of concrete spaces, we also get his characters vividly depicted. This paper will explore almost the entire opus of Dostoevsky with a synecdoche approach but pars pro toto to demonstrated that hypotyposis is, in fact, one of the key narrative devices of the Russian writer.
Fighting with “the tyranny of Distance”: History of transport in Australia
Authors: Zernetska Olga , Droniv Victoriia
Published: December 2022

Transport plays a vital role in the development of state of Australia. Transport can be compared with arteries of different industries of different types of economy. This infrastructure is especially important for Australia which has a great territory and low density of its population. That’s why the development of transport despite the remoteness of the continent from the Old World went parallel but sometimes even ahead of Europe. For the first time in Ukrainian science, an attempt has been made to investigate at the interdisciplinary level the formation of Australian state with the help of transport. Events are presented in chronological order because the very history of the discovery of the continent began from sailboats. Sailboat transport at the time of the discovery of Australia and the transportation of the first convicts, their supervising soldiers and administration together with free settlers from The Great Britain arrived on sailboats. The use of sailboats in transport along the coast of Australia is also clarified as well as hunting for whales, the future visits to the Pacific Islands and transportation from there valuable species of wood. The transition to steam shipping and later to motor shipping is distinguished, subsequently to motor shipping, innovative port changes of the coast of Australia for better floating and for better placement of cargo on steamers and their uploading taking into account the cost of human labour, of appropriate mechanisms and devices. Features of Australian river navigation are also considered. The development of land transport is studied. It is proved that the development of rail transport in the XIX st. became an important link in the transport system of Australia. Its advantages and obstacles which for many years stood in the way of development are allocated. The problems of different gauge in each Australian state are analysed and the difficulties of overcoming them are emphasized. Road transport and road construction have come out in Australia at a rapid space. It was found that road construction for Australian society was not only economic but also of great social importance because the soldiers who returned to their homeland from the First World War had their jobs on road constructions. The origin and development of aviation on the fifth continent are analysed. The figures of aviation designers are singled out. They pioneered aviation industry in Australia. Conclusions are drawn that this industry became dominant in Australia now.
Foreign Direct Investment from an Indian Perspective
Authors: Pushpalatha M. , Kumarasamy T.
Published: December 2022

Foreign direct investment has been crucial to the expansion of many countries in the current universal environment. This is essential for emerging and poor nations. The reality is that these developing and undeveloped economies typically lack the income and savings levels sufficient to support the degree of investment necessary to sustain economic growth. When this happens, FDI is crucial in linking the gap between the available and required incomes or finances. In addition to serving as a source of funding, it contributes to the nation's long-term growth by boosting infrastructure, boosting productivity, and opening up new employment opportunities through technology transfer play part of India, FDI is viewed as a development instrument that promotes economic growth and self-sufficiency in several different areas. Foreign direct investment inflows to India significantly increased after the economy's liberalization and externalization in 1991. The goal of this article is to examine changes in his FDI inflows into India, as well as to categorize them by country and analyze the sectoral distribution of those investments there. Secondary information used in this paper was collected from many reliable sources. For research, straightforward statistical tools like Percentage and CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) were utilized. The analysis demonstrates several tendencies in recent FDI inflows to India. This is reliable with the overall growth trend in the global economy. According to the survey, Mauritius has the most investments in India overall, and throughout the study period, the services sector attracted the most foreign direct investments from other nations. Most of the information gathered for the study is restricted to the previous 20 years and only pertains to the Indian economy.

Authors: Selvam R Muthu , Pushpavalli M.
Published: December 2022

The electrocardiogram and temperature of the patient's body are continuously measured and displayed by the Smart Health Surveillance system, which also communicates with the doctor. The device uses an infrared sensor to measure ECG and temperature sensors to measure the patient's mouth and wrist temperatures. The microcontroller automatically talks with the web server and shows data from the sensors. The patient's vital signs are gathered using the current approach, which then manually enters the data into a database and sends it to a web server. The current approach does not warn the immediate area or the doctor when abnormal situations arise. An android device running our system's server application visualization module displays the gathered biological signals visually.
Few Prediction Techniques for Earthquake Events and their Analysis: A Brief Insight
Authors: Mukherjee Tilak , Roy Kushal
Published: December 2022

The lower atmosphere, specifically the troposphere zone, and its related impacts on earthquake (EQ) seismic events are examined in this paper. Most of these seismic events show prominent changes and sudden anomalies in temperature ranges, corresponding humidity levels, and radio refractive index profiles before and after the event, which offers a potential and feasible method or mechanism to predict the occurrence of EQ in the concerned risk-prone areas. This study examines anomalies using electromagnetic (EM) signals in the broad interdisciplinary field of communication and geophysics engineering. In this context, proper mutual understanding of the prediction signals consisting of complex seismic dynamics mainly based on troposphere conditions mainly linked with such devastating events and their further prediction with machine learning algorithms as well as their extended applications serves to be important.
Clase, racialización y poder: Una etnografía del golf en México
Authors: Ceron Anaya Hugo
Published: December 2022

El presente artículo utiliza una etnografía de exclusivos clubes de golf en México para analiza la reproducción de inequidades sociales en esta nación. El texto describe la manera en la que las dinámicas de clase generan procesos de inclusión y exclusión entre las clases medía alta y alta que constituyen estos clubes deportivos. Sin embargo, de forma novedosa, el estudio muestra que las inequidades sociales en México no sólo operan bajo patrones de clase. El artículo aborda la manera en que las nociones racializadas y los esquemas epidérmicos también son utilizados para generar distinciones jerárquicas. La incorporación de este argumento permite generar un análisis más complejo de la manera en que los procesos de dominación y subordinación funcionan en México. El argumento desarrollado en el artículo tiene profundas implicaciones para el estudio de las inequidades, ya que no sería posible entender la exclusión social simplemente analizando las estructuras de clase. Bajo esta novedosa perspectiva, temas como la pobreza y la riqueza estarían tan influenciados por asuntos económicos como por temas raciales (y racistas) en América Latina.
Karada de oboeru: el aprendizaje social de los fundamentales del kendo
Authors: Chávez Hernández Sebastián Franciso
Published: December 2022

El cuerpo como soporte para la experiencia somática integrada con la mente ha sido estudiado en las artes marciales, pero escasamente en el kendo (esgrima japonesa contemporánea), menos aún de manera empírica desde el cómo se conforma en la práctica marcial cotidiana. Para abordar esto se hizo un trabajo etnográfico en un periodo de entrenamiento especial en un dojo de Madrid (España), enfocándose en la interpretación de los aprendizajes fundamentales del kendo (kihon) en sus distintas vertientes. Se observa que el habitus “kendístico” se conforma a través de interacciones entre sus participantes que refuerzan el respeto a la jerarquía y roles internos de las sesiones, el seguimiento de la etiqueta conductual (reigi) y el desarrollo de un kihon apropiado a cada practicante, cohesionados a través de la repetición constante que acaba fusionando de facto el pensamiento con la acción corporal.

Published: December 2022

The mattampung  ritual is a practice of beliefs and traditions carried out by the Bugis in order to remember the spirits of the deceased by reciting prayers or verses of the Qur'an in order to gain salvation and get the right place by the side of Allah. The purpose of this study is to reveal an understanding of the ritual of mattampung among the people. This type of research is qualitative usingnormative theological proximity which is then supported by an interview with a local scholar. The results of this study revealed that the rituals of mattampung can be studied based on legal sources. The first source of law  based on naqly's postulates  is the Qur'an and hadith. While the second source of law is  the aqly  postulate which is the source of law based on reason. later, developed by the scholars of ushul fiqhi on the basis of ijtihad.  The difference in people's understanding of the death ritual in Soppeng Riaja District, Barru Regency, is because on the one hand that  the ritual  is an Islamic culture by relying on two postulates, namely the naqli  postulate (al-Qur'an and Hadith) and also  the aqli (reason consideration) postulate which is used by ushul fiqhi scholars as one of the sources of Islamic law, namely al- Urf' (the establishment of laws based on customs and traditions carried out by the local people).

Authors: Javed Sana
Published: December 2022

Background: Physical activities like sports gymnastics games, cycling, brisk walking, and running has always been a fun and important activities for people’s health and especially when it became their occupation. Due to increased unhealthy eating disorders in people, they have developed an unhealthy weight which is causing them to be weakened and causing pain especially at joints. For the diagnosis conventional radiography was never helpful because it is not for soft tissues whereas MRI is been using in muscoskeletal as modality of choice.

Methods: total 600 patients were included in this prospective study with acute knee pain held at Lahore. 1.5 T MRI is used to rule out meniscal tears. Duration was of one year. Scans were reported by 2 expert radiologists and spss version 25.0 is used for frequency analysis. Asymptomatic patients were excluded from this study.

Results: Knee meniscal tear frequency was ruled out in symptomatic patients including acute knee pain. Frequency was determined from 600 patients by determining male and female in them. Positive meniscal tear findings were discriminated by negative meniscal tear findings. Men has high ratio of meniscal tears because of many factors as compared to women.

Conclusion: Jumping, supports, running and high intensity physical activities can be the cause of meniscal tear. Early evaluation of tear is necessary for the treatment of symptoms such as acute knee pain etc. Magnetic resonance imaging is non- invasive useful muscoskeletal imaging modality which can detect the tear even at very small grade such as grade 1.
Review On The Role Of Host Immune Response In Protection And Immunopathogenesis During Entamoeba Histolytica
Authors: Hassani ALSalami Eman
Published: December 2022

Background: A protozoane parasite callede Entamoeba histolyticae (Eh) infects Entamoebae histolytica (Eh), a protozoane parasite that causese 100,000 deaths per year frome amebic dysentery and/or livere abscess, has infectede 10% of the entire world'se population. Usuallye, this extracellular parasitee colonizes the colone with high affinity bindinge to MUC2 mucin without causing illness symptoms, but occasionally, Eh invades the colonic mucosae and triggers an agressivee inflammatory responsee. The particulare host-parasite variables requirede for illnesse etiologye are still mostlye unknown. The parasite's cysteine proteasee cleaved thee C-terminus ofe MUC2, that causese the mucus layer to dissolve, followede by adsorption and cytotoxicitye of the mucosal epitheliume, are the disease's hallmark eventse that cause the condition to worsene. Every time a host cell that causes tissue injurye comes into contact with the host, the host generates an excessively inefficient pro-inflammatory responsee. They can cause cell death through phagocytosis, apoptosis, or trogocytosise (the absorption of livinge cells), which may be cruciale for immune evasion, as well as othere detrimental effects that are brought on by their attachment to the host cellse. Immune evasion techniquese are used by Eh to survive and induce diseasee manifestation in the host; these techniquese are the main focuse of this reviewe. eAn estimated 100,000 individualse are predicted to die eache year from E. histolytica infectione, which is thoughte to impact 1% of peoplee. Clinicale manifestations of a mebice infection can range frome mild to severee, causing extraintestinal abscessese and diarrhea. Onlye 20% of those whoe are affectede, like othere infectious diseasese, reportedly exhibite symptoms. The outcomee of an infection is controllede by both the genetic makee-up of the parasitee and the host ase well as environmental factors like the microbiome. Amebic infection goes through a number of critical stages, includinge the degeneratione of the mucosale layer and infiltratione into it, adherencee to the intestinal epitheliume, invasion intoe the tissuese, and diffusione to other organs.

Should the Private Sector and Prime Contractors Adhere to the Federal FASC and FedRAMP Regulations?
Authors:   Touro University Worldwide, Buresh Ph.D., Esq. Donald L.
Published: December 2022

This article argues that it is in the best interest of private sector organizations and prime contractors to adhere to the Federal Acquisition Supply Chain Security (FASC) and the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) regulations. The paper opines that an organization should follow a supply chain security program, whether from the federal government or otherwise, because such obedience tends to reduce the risk of loss from various factors, including cybercrime. In the modern world, where cyber-attacks from threat actors are common, and the illicit profits gained from such activities can be huge, devotion to a supply chain risk management program is paramount. Thus, loyalty to a supply chain risk mitigation program is critical.
The Effect of Impulsive Buying and Perceived Value on Repurchase Intention: The Mediating Role of Customer Loyalty Program and Moderating Role of Satisfying Customer Experience
Authors:   Master of Business Administration Diponegoro University Semarang, Indonesia, Damanik Martinus Koster
Published: December 2022

Based on Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) theory, this study identifies and empirically tests the effect of impulsive buying and perceived value on intention to install and repurchase intention by using the mediating role of customer loyalty programs and the moderating role of satisfying customer experience to reinforce the positive influence. Data collected from 168 small store owners using the Sahabat Warung shopping application through an online survey were analyzed using structural partial least squares (PLS-SEM) modeling. The results do not confirm the significant impact of impulsive buying but confirm the significant impact of perceived value on the intention to install. Intention to install was found to be strongly correlated with repurchase intention by mediating customer loyalty programs. Moderation of customer loyalty programs reinforces positive influence. The findings inform managers and researchers of the role of perceived value as being stronger than impulsive buying in driving intention to install and repurchase intention.
Avaliação do medidor portátil de teor de umidade pelo método dielétrico em madeira roliça de Eucalyptus sp.
Authors:   , Nascimento Raphael Almeida
Published: December 2022

Em 2020, o consumo de madeira roliça oriunda de florestas plantadas, representou um total de 84% de todo volume utilizado no Brasil, para abastecer indústrias de polpa celulósica, carvão vegetal (uso siderúrgico), madeira tratada, além do setor agropecuário e construção civil. Dentro do segmento de energia, um dos principais parâmetros que influenciam na eficiência da utilização da madeira é o teor de umidade. Tal parâmetro interfere no rendimento gravimétrico da produção de carvão vegetal, tempo de ignição, temperatura média e taxa de aquecimento durante a pirólise. O teor de umidade possui grande influência nos processos industriais, principalmente em teores de umidades acima do ponto de saturação das fibras. Assim, determinar o teor da umidade em madeira roliça de forma rápida, precisa e não destrutiva é um desafio para o setor florestal. Uma das opções para a determinação do teor de umidade é o método dielétrico pelo princípio capacitivo. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar o método dielétrico, para determinar o teor de umidade, em amostras da madeira roliça de Eucalyptus sp. por meio do equipamento UMILOG-M65 (Marrari Automação®). Foi avaliado o equipamento em sua configuração original, e foram elaborados modelos de calibração (equações matemáticas) de teor de umidade x número de BITS, para o equipamento UMILOG-M65 para as diferentes situações estudadas (modelo de sonda, posição de coleta e classe de diâmetro) e equações gerais (sem considerar classe de diâmetro) utilizando árvores de Eucalyptus sp. Os valores obtidos com o equipamento em configuração original, e após aplicadas as equações matemáticas, foram comparados com os resultados obtidos pelo método gravimétrico (testemunha). A precisão do equipamento foi avaliada, considerando um erro limite de 5 pontos percentuais. A variação no teor de umidade, base úmida, da madeira apresentou correlação positiva com o valor de BIT’s fornecido pelo equipamento, evidenciando a possibilidade de calibrar o equipamento a partir dos dados gerados pelo UMILOG-M65. A partir das equações matemáticas observou-se ganho na precisão do equipamento para todas as situações estudadas. A precisão do equipamento em configuração original não superou 42%, sendo que após aplicadas as equações matemáticas a precisão média variou de 60 a 70% (desconsiderando as classes de diâmetro). Ao considerar a classe de diâmetro, a precisão chegou a 83% nas menores classes, após aplicadas as equações matemáticas. Foram observados melhores resultados de precisão para as Classes de diâmetro inferiores. A precisão foi superior para dados obtidos na posição de coleta “Ponta” (topo dos toretes). Os dados sugerem que é possível utilizar equações matemáticas para melhorar a precisão do equipamento para determinar o teor de umidade, base úmida, em madeira roliça de Eucalyptus sp. Palavras-chave: Teor de umidade base úmida. Método não destrutivo. Sensor capacitivo.
Ainda sobre cubagem e equações de volume
Authors:   , Domiciano Carlos Alberto Ramos
Published: December 2022

Para alcançar alta produtividade, as florestas necessitam de acompanhamento e intervenções constantes, sendo recomendado que as atividades de manejo florestal sejam realizadas com base em informações técnicas. Os procedimentos dos inventários florestais são a base para obtenção das informações que são utilizadas nas tomadas de decisão do manejo florestal, sendo o volume de madeira considerado por muitos autores como a informação mais importante na definição de ações de manejo de florestas equiâneas para fins comerciais e que demanda recursos financeiros e tempo para obtenção das estimativas. Embora essenciais, a obtenção de dados e de informações no campo geram custos, que afetam diretamente o retorno final do investimento, sendo necessário a redução destes sem afetar a exatidão das estimativas e sem comprometer a execução das atividades de manejo florestal. Nesse contexto os procedimentos de cubagem de árvores-amostra para obter estimativas dos volumes de árvores individuais devem ser otimizados a partir da compreensão do processo de coleta e análise dos dados. No presente estudo foi avaliado: i) o efeito do número de árvores por classe de diâmetro sobre a exatidão das equações volumétricas e ii) os efeitos dos comprimentos das seções de medição e de fórmulas matemáticas sobre as estimativas dos volumes das árvores-amostra e sobre os ajustes das equações de volume. De acordo com as análises, foi constatado que: 1) equações de volume referentes ao modelo de Schumacher e Hall (1933), em sua forma linear, ajustadas a partir de 8 árvores por classe de diâmetro, forneceram estimativas volumétricas similares às obtidas pelo emprego da equação resultante da cubagem de 48 árvores; 2) o aumento do número de árvores por classe de diâmetro resultou em uma diminuição dos erros médios e da variabilidade dos erros em todas as classes, sobretudo nas maiores, uma vez que as estimativas dos parâmetros das equações ajustadas foram não viesadas; 3) as fórmulas de Huber, Newton e Smalian utilizadas para totalização do volume do fuste resultaram em equações com pouca diferença estatística, para um mesmo tamanho de seção, mas aumentando-se o comprimento da seção, em alguns casos, as equações foram estatisticamente diferentes, mesmo para uma mesma formula matemática; 4) o tamanho da seção afeta a exatidão das estimativas de volume, sendo que seções de maiores tamanhos resultam em equações com erros maiores. Ao final deste estudo, pode-se inferir que pode-se diminuir os custos nos procedimentos de cubagem por meio de uma avaliação criteriosa dos dados, visando reduções no número de árvores cubadas por classe diamétrica e com o aumento do tamanho das seções de cubagem. Palavras-chave: Determinação do volume. Fórmulas de cubagem. Comprimento de seções. Modelo volumétrico.
Inhibition of hepatic energy metabolizing enzymes in murine model exposed to diisononyl phthalate
Authors: Kehinde Samuel , Ore Ayokanmi , Olayinka Ebenezer , Olajide Abosede
Published: December 2022

Background and objectives: Diisononyl phthalate (DINP) is a class of phthalates and phthalates are known to be metabolism disrupting chemicals (MDCs). Numerous MDCs, to which humans are exposed, have an effect on every aspect of energy transduction. They affect the liver by impairing insulin secretion in pancreatic cells and altering the liver’s insulin-dependent glucose metabolism.
Methods: For this study, eighteen male albino rats weighing 200±20g were randomly assigned to three groups (of six rats each) and followed for a 14-days period. The groups were: group A or control which was given Tween-80 orally, group B or DINP1 group which was given 20 mg/kg b.wt. DINP, and Group C or DINP2 group which received 200 mg/kg b.wt. DINP. The rats were then sacrificed, their livers were removed, and the glycolytic and oxidative phosphorylation enzyme activities were evaluated.
Results: Activities of the glycolytic, tricarboxylic acid cycle and electron transport chain enzymes under investigation were significantly down-regulated with severity observed in decreased activities of hepatic oxidative phosphorylation enzymes when compared with control (P<0.05). Hepatic tissue sections of 20 and 200mg/kg DiNP group revealed distorted cytoarchitecture of hepatocytes ranging from histocellular disarrangement to vaocular changes suggestive of loss of liver integrity or fibrosis.
Conclusions: Finally, DINP exposure impairs hepatic energy transduction enzymes as evident in down-regulation of the various enzymes of energy metabolism under investigation and this may invariably be a good tool for the diagnosis of hepatic energy impairment as seen in some disease conditions.

O tema deste artigo é a importância da educação para a sexualidade e tem como objetivo investigar as potencialidades de ações educativas com enfoque no HIV/Aids, analisando a sua contribuição para a promoção da saúde no âmbito do ensino médio. É um assunto que tem muito a ser explorado e gera grandes polêmicas na sociedade, pois encontram-se entraves a serem superados. O estudo em questão justifica-se porque a educação para a sexualidade busca esclarecer dúvidas que os adolescentes normalmente não discutem no âmbito familiar e a desinformação pode acarretar problemas de saúde e até gravidez indesejada. É importante que os professores busquem formação adequada para incluir esse tema sem preconceitos e tabus na sala de aula. Discorre-se também a diferença entre educação para a sexualidade e orientação sexual, pois trata-se de uma temática ampla, porém muito importante e cabe à escola incluir isso em seu programa de ensino. A fundamentação teórica teve como base os autores Furlanetto; Lauermann; Costa; & Marin (2018); Higa;  Bertolin; Maringolo; Ribeiro; Ferreira; Oliveira (2015); Flora; Rodrigues & Paiva (2013) que, com enfoques diferenciados, revelam que educadores não se sentem à vontade em versar sobre o tema por questões de não ter afinidades e domínio com o assunto, levando assim a abordagem de forma pontual. A metodologia utilizada foi a revisão bibliográfica a partir da análise de conteúdo através de artigos e livros. Os estudos visitados indicaram que a educação para sexualidade é de extrema importância e de utilidade pública para a promoção da saúde.

The article examines the concept of sports injury and provides a research overview devoted to this phenomenon.A sports injury is considered as special life event. Unlike domestic injuries, its probability is determined by the subject's voluntary choice of a sports career, and the normative moment of its realization. It has been established that it has a high intensity of experience, combines painful sensations and emotional stress, and the significance of the consequences. It was determined that a sports injury has different consequences for the subject: it can be both positive gains (post-traumatic personal growth) and negative consequences (post-traumatic stress disorder, termination of a sports career, new injuries).

A total of 90 respondents made up the empirical base of the study, including: 60 athletes and 30 non-athletes. The article analyzes the results of using the standardized interview «My trauma». It was shown that sports injuries differ from everyday ones in content, dynamics and phenomenology as a whole and therefore can be studied as a special life event using special research tools.

Biographical (number of events before the injury) and personal (locus of control) were identified as prerequisites for traumatization in athletes. Differences in the prerequisites and experiences of athletes with a sports injury and non-athletes with a household injury have been revealed. Athletes are twice as likely to indicate the presence of significant events before receiving an injury. A comparison of emotional and painful experiences accompanying trauma in athletes and non-athletes showed that their variability and nuances are much higher in the group of athletes.

In general, athletes show a higher level of negative affect compared to people who do not play sports.
