Published: March 2023

A majority of the population will experience epistaxis at some time in their life. Most cases will be from an anterior source and can be treated with pressure, anterior nasal packing, or cautery. Intractable epistaxis is generally posterior in origin and may require endoscopic cauterization, posterior packing, ligation of external carotid artery or embolization. Here we report a case of bilateral posterior epistaxis in a 41 year old male patient with c/o spontaneous epistaxis from bilateral nostril. Digital Subtraction Angiography followed by Angioembolisation was done.

The initial phases of drug discovery - in silico drug design - could benefit from first principle Quantum Mechanics / Molecular Mechanics (QM/MM) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in explicit solvent, yet many applications are currently limited by the short time scales that this approach can cover. Developing scalable first principle QM/MM MD interfaces fully exploiting current exascale machines - so far an unmet and crucial goal - will help overcome this problem, opening the way to the study of the thermodynamics and kinetics of ligand binding to protein with first principle accuracy. Here, taking two relevant case studies involving the interactions of ligands with rather large enzymes, we showcase the use of our recently developed massively scalable MiMiC QM/MM framework (currently using DFT to describe the QM region) to investigate reactions and ligand binding in enzymes of pharmacological relevance. We also demonstrate for the first time strong scaling of MiMiC QM/MM MD simulations with parallel efficiency above 70\% with over 40,000 cores. Thus, among many others, the MiMiC interface represents a promising candidate towards exascale applications by combining machine learning with statistical mechanics based algorithms tailored for exascale supercomputers.

Structurally defined graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) have emerged as promising candidates for nanoelectronic devices. Low bandgap (< 1 eV) GNRs are particularly important when considering the Schottky barrier in device performance. Here, we demonstrate the first solution synthesis of 8-AGNRs through a carefully designed arylated polynaphthalene precursor. The efficiency of the oxidative cyclode-hydrogenation of the tailor-made polymer precursor into 8-AGNRs was validated by FT-IR, Raman, and UV-vis-near-infrared (NIR) absorption spectroscopy, and further supported by the synthesis of naphtho[1,2,3,4-ghi]perylene derivatives (1 and 2) as subunits of 8-AGNR, with a width of 0.86 nm as suggested by the X-ray single crystal analysis. The resulting 8-AGNR exhibited a remarkable NIR absorption extending up to ~2400 nm, corresponding to an optical bandgap as low as ~0.52 eV. Moreover, optical-pump TeraHertz-probe spectroscopy revealed a charge-carrier mobility in the dc limit of ∼270 cm2 V–1 s–1 for the 8-AGNR
Stochastic Simulation of Controlled Radical Polymerization of Den-dritic Hyperbranched Polymers
Authors: Tosaka Masatoshi , Takeuchi Hinako , Kibune Masato , Tong Tianxiang , Zhu Nanyi , Yamago Shigeru
Published: March 2023

We have recently developed a novel one-step method for the synthesis of hyperbranched polymers (HBPs) with a controlled molecular weight and branch structure and narrow dispersities (Đ = 1.5~2) based on the reversible deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) using a branch-inducing monomer, evolmer. While the observed Đs of the resulting HBPs were sig-nificantly smaller than those of HBPs synthesized by radical polymerization (Đ > 4), they were still higher than those usually observed for linear polymers (Đ < 1.5) synthesized by RDRP. The origin of the higher dispersity of this method was exam-ined by stochastic simulation of the formation process of the HBPs consisting of the elementary steps involving RDRP. The simulation program successfully reproduced the Đs during the polymerization process. Furthermore, the simulation sug-gested that the higher Đs are due to the distribution of the number of branches instead of undesired side reactions, such as the termination reaction. In addition, the majority of HBPs have structures close to the ideal one, and the HBPs have a well-controlled branch structure. In addition, the simulation also suggested the slight dependence of branch density on molecular weight, which was experimentally confirmed by synthesizing HBPs with an evolmer having phenyl group.
Engineering Host-Guest Interactions in Organic Framework Materials for Drug Delivery
Authors: Ernst Michelle , Gryn'ova Ganna
Published: March 2023

Metal-organic frameworks (MOF) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are promising nanocarriers for targeted drug delivery. Noncovalent interactions between frameworks and drugs play a fundamental role in the therapeutic uptake and release of the latter. However, the scope of framework functionalisations and deliverable drugs remains underexplored. Using a multilevel approach combining molecular docking and density functional theory, we show for a range of drugs and frameworks that experimentally reported release metrics are in good agreement with the in silico computed host-guest interaction energies. Functional groups within the framework significantly impact the strength of these host-guest interactions, while a given framework can serve as an efficient delivery agent for drugs beyond the prototypical few. Our findings identify the interaction energy as a reliable and relatively easy to compute descriptor of organic framework materials for drug delivery, able to facilitate their high-throughput screening and targeted design towards extended-release times.
Solid-Phase Synthesis of Iterative RAFT Single Unit Monomer Insertion Adducts
Authors: Hakobyan Karen , Noble Benjamin , Xu Jiangtao
Published: March 2023

In this communication, we disclose the use of a solid-phase methodology to synthesize iterative RAFT single unit mono-mer insertion (SUMI) adducts. This methodology features a reversible thiocarbonylthio protecting group and radical chain growth of vinyl monomers, with minimal purification required during the synthesis. To achieve this, a RAFT chain transfer agent was immobilized on a common peptide synthesis resin via the “R-group” in the first instance. Using an ox-ygen-tolerant PET-RAFT methodology, we then extended the iterative synthesis of sequence-defined indene-maleimide alternating co-oligomers to 18 units with minimal dispersity, completely unprecedented in SUMI chemistry. Furthermore, as we demonstrate, this solid-phase methodology can be generalized to other maleimide derivatives and other solid-phase resins.
Glucosinolate accumulation and hydrolysis in leafy Brassica vegetables are depending on leaf age
Authors: Púčiková Vanda , Rohn Sascha , Hanschen Franziska
Published: March 2023

The health-beneficial effects of Brassica vegetables are mainly attributed to their high contents of glucosinolates and the products of their enzymatic hydrolysis, especially isothiocyanates. Distribution of glucosinolates across plant organs can strongly vary. Consequently, the effect of leaf age on glucosinolate accumulation as well as hydrolysis was investigated in two leafy Brassica vegetables, pak choi and giant red mustard. Furthermore, activity of the hydrolyzing enzyme, myrosinase, was evaluated across the leaves. Additionally, a possible glucosinolate transport from older to younger leaves was monitored. Young leaves of both species contained of more glucosinolates than old ones. Accordingly, more isothiocyanates were released upon glucosinolate hydrolysis in young leaves. Myrosinases fully hydrolyzed the whole glucosinolates regardless of the leaf age. It was confirmed that older leaves can supply younger leaves with glucosinolates. The results can help to improve the health-beneficial value of Brassicas in the diet by an increased formation of isothiocyanates.
Modern transformation processes in the settlement system of the Zaporizhia region as a result of the reform of the administrative-territorial structure
Authors: Kobets Kseniia
Published: March 2023

Reforming the administrative-territorial structure on the basis of union village and urban councils into territorial communities has led to new transformation processes in the settlement system of Zaporizhia region and the country as a whole. The article analyzes the union of territorial communities in Zaporizhia region after the completion of the decentralization reform, calculates the density of population, settlements and the average quantity of settlements in territorial communities in the districts of Zaporizhia region.

The study region ranks fifth in Ukraine among of united territorial communities. Almost 65% of the total population of the region is concentrated in Zaporizhia, Melitopol, Berdyansk, Energodar and Tokmak urban territorial communities. In the course of the research it was determined that more than a third of all communities of Zaporizhia region have a population of 5 to 10 thousand people. In the region is dominated by communities with an area of 100-200 km2 and 200-300 km2. Chernihivska, Yakymivska and Primorska united territorial communities were created without taking into account the availability of public services for all settlements of the community.

The highest population density is observed in the north-west of Zaporizhia region and in points in the united territorial communities, which include large cities in the region. In two thirds of the territorial communities of the region the amount of settlements does not exceed 15. Territorially, the highest density of settlements is observed in the north of Zaporizhia region, and the lowest - in the south-east and west. During the calculation of the population concentration index, it was determined that in Vasylivka and Pologi districts there is an uneven distribution of the population. Zaporizhia, Melitopol, and Berdyansk districts stand out with their abruptly uneven distribution of population.

As a result of the change of the administrative-territorial structure of the Zaporizhia region, the process of functional transformation of the settlement system began. The Chernihivska, Yakymivska, Huliaipilska and Primorska communities have merged a large amount of local councils, so they will be most affected by changes in the functional connections between the settlements. There was also a breaking in functional connections in the settlements that were separated from the main part of the territory of the former districts.

Authors: Duk Nataliia , Sumatokhina Iryna
Published: March 2023

The article is devoted to the problems and achievements of participatory budgeting as a new form of citizen participation in the regulation of the municipal budget. The current experience, features of implementation and prospects of development of participatory budgeting as a tool for solving urgent social problems taking into account the needs of citizens in cities on the example of Dnipropetrovsk region are analyzed. The research was conducted using the cartographic method and methods of geographical interpretation of the results of mathematical and statistical modeling. An attempt to make an assessment classification of the region's cities according to the sets of indicators (the amount of budgeting, project topics, citizen activity and the dynamics of the process and other) was made. The indicators were standardized and based on them, scores were calculated for each city. According to this the cities were combined into five groups that differ in the features, level and effectiveness of participatory budgeting.

The dependence of the level of development of this process on the population of cities, transparency and openness of information and level of population involvement in the solution of urgent needs is established. In large cities the activity of citizens and the categories of proposed projects depend on the city districts functional features and there centrality / peripherality.

The positive features of the implementation of participatory budgeting in the cities of Dnipropetrovsk region include the following: increasing the number of projects and the amount of their funding; significant positive changes in the level of amenities and infrastructure, the quality of educational services; strengthening the humanitarian policy development; increasing social activity of the population. In the region the most successful cities in participatory budget implementation are the largest cities Dnipro and Kryvyi Rih.

The analysis of the participatory budgeting process revealed a number of general, regional and local problems of both methodological and technological nature. It is emphasized that the geographical aspect of the study of such a new social phenomenon as participatory budgeting in the cities of Ukraine is a relevant and promising scientific field.
A critical review of pigging operations in the pipeline
Authors: Nath Aditya
Published: March 2023

Pigging is commonly utilized in pipelines for different maintenance tasks such as cleaning and inspecting pipes using pigging pigs. This is done without interrupting the flow of goods via the pipeline. The operation is carried out by introducing a pig from the source to the end-point of the pipeline. During the pig's travel through the pipeline, it brushes out the trapped product and cleans the pipe walls. It is also utilized for pipeline inspection, providing us with interior data such as corrosion characteristics, and identifying dents, wrinkles, buckles, welding faults, and fractures. It ensures product flow and reduces product contamination within the pipeline. It eliminates accumulated debris, which eventually helps to defend against the defects with heavy duty bristles and pit cleaning brushes are highly effective in both swiping the liquids downstream, and out of pits.

Kurdish Issue in Iraq and Justifications of Kurdistan Region’s Independence Referendum in 2017
Authors: Ali Sasan Hikmat , Ismael Sleman Abdullah
Published: March 2023

The right of self determination is an internationally endorsed right of nations, especially those nations affected by suppression and assimilation campaigns on their own land. Therefore, nations suffering from economic, political, cultural, and in extreme cases religious and historical marginalization have the right to establish their own independent states. One way to achieve this goal is holding public referendum. Referendums provide the oppressed nations with the opportunity to express their will in a democratic manner and ask for implementation of their inalienable right of self-determination.

Since the establishment of the state of Iraq, Iraqi Kurds have been repeatedly oppressed and marginalized by successive Iraqi governments. Brutality of governments in Baghdad pushed Kurds to seek independence to no avail. The region’s geopolitical realities and ongoing conflicts and rivalries over controlling the natural resources of the region have played a major part in Kurdish failure in establishing an independent state. This research explores the diverse aspects of the Kurdish issue in Iraq with the aim of signifying the role geopolitics has played in creation and continuation of problems between the Iraqi government and Kurdistan Region.

In order to achieve its stated goal, the research is divided into the following sections: First, an introduction, followed by a section dedicated to emergence and evolution of the Kurdish issue in Iraq. The third section discusses the justifications of Kurdistan’s independence referendum, which is followed by the conclusion section that presents the findings and recommendations of the study.

Published: March 2023

This study, which is entitled “Language and Linguistic Violence in Education Field”, deals with the use of language in educational field. The use of a violent language entails psychological and physical violence. There are many factors for an individual to have a violent language, including community, family, and school environment. Therefore, this issue has to be addressed seriously in educational settings. Schools should be made like a centre where positive influences to be placed on individual’s language and intellect. The texts studies in schools should be composed in a way that takes into account the feelings of all. Besides, the nation’s philosophy of forming individual’s language and thought is reflected in these texts in terms of individual’s behaviour and etiquette. Hereby, there must plan for building individuals free from hatred and violence. This study is divided into two sections, conclusions, and list of references.

Section one is entitled “Language and Linguistic Violence from Social Perspective”. It covers the concept of language and its use; linguistic violence definition; psychological concept of linguistic violence; characteristics of a violent language; the impact of linguistic violence on family and society; and the social factors of linguistic violence. 

Section two, Language and Linguistic Violence in Education, addresses linguistic violence in education; the connection between linguistic violence and violent behaviour; the relationship between linguistic violence and communication; language plans in education system; characteristics of language in educational field; and language functions.

Post-Production Stage is considered as one of the most important elements of production. Through this stage, the process of editing, organization and the consistency among video shots, sounds and colors is done by color-artists, designers, video editors, sound editors and animators. Post-Production Stage appeared with the development of television production technology. As such, how the Kurdish TV Channels use Post-Production Stage is becoming an increasingly critical subject of analysis and research. The need for researching, understanding and uncovering the use of post-production stage is very important.

   In this paper, the researcher has taken NRT channel, its second season of “Ba Wrdi” program as a case study. The analysis-method was used for this study. The second season of “Ba Wrdi” has 26 episodes and 172 scenes. The researcher has studied 150 minutes and 33 seconds in the total of the 26 episodes. The present paper has arrived at the following conclusions that Designers of the program used color correction for the same purpose. They used color correction for the purpose of visual appeal rather than solving color issues, and in the programs designed by local NRT staff members, there are statistical discrepancies in color grading. This shows a limitation of experience and expertise of the NRT local post-production staff, also Designers of the channel have mostly used text and pictures in motion graphics.

Published: March 2023

This thesis focuses on the role of the European Court of justice (ECJ) in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. It thoroughly examines the ECJ’s ruling on the legality, or lack thereof, of extending duty-free entry to the European Union to Israeli products that are manufactured in settlements in the occupied West Bank. The thesis studies the political and legal background to the ECJ ruling. It further argues that the ECJ verdict that these products are not covered by the free trade agreement between the EU and Israel will have significant legal, political and economic ramifications for Israel and for the Palestinians. Equally important, it will help define the applicability of international law to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, especially as far as delineating the borders of a future Palestinian state.

The results of this research examine that child marriage according to KH. Husein Muhammad is still happening in society because of culture. Then, children should marry with the requirement that they have reached puberty and have mental and physical readiness in line with KH. Sahal Mahfudh suggestion revealed that mujbir's guardians might marry their children. However, it requires permission and approval from prospective adult women. It is very important because if the woman has no inner and outer consent, the marriage carried out will be very dangerous.
