Authors: Woźniczka Maciej
Published: December 2020

The thesis addresses the issue of functioning of philosophy in popular culture. The representative example for this problem is literature popularizing philosophy. The major historical determinants of the idea of propagating and disseminating philosophy have been indicated. An analysis of propaedeutic literature of philosophy has been carried out on the basis of the following criteria: history, selected issues, critical and systematic thinking, orientation toward the method/style of philosophizing. The main goal of the thesis is to attempt to explain the importance of all introductions to philosophy aimed at strengthening popular culture. The last decades are characterized by varied proposals in this regard, which the presented paper tries to discuss in detail. The convention of contemporary postmodern formation (homogenization, universal accessibility, universality) seems to foster these kinds of activities.
Popular culture in education and socialization – opportunities and threats
Authors: Nymś-Górna Agnieszka
Published: December 2020

The article is a review. The purpose of this text is to review the ideas about the impact of popular culture on children and adolescents. Due to the great possibilities of popular culture, this influence is ambiguous and predictable. The concepts therefore only show certain tendencies. Children and adolescents are certainly special recipients of popular culture content. The dynamics of their development affects the way content is perceived. On the other hand, however, they can be not only passive recipients, but also active recipients who, by processing the incoming content, may derive additional benefits from it. For this reason, popular culture becomes an educational space with great potential, which, however, must be skillfully disposed of in order to achieve the intended effects of work.

Authors: Marciniak Mateusz
Published: December 2020

The huge potential of popular culture shaped and transmitted over “mass-media” and “new” media is noticed. At the same time, they are criticized due to their content and their influence on human actions and social relations. A number of social researchers refer to the submission of media to popular culture and entertainment, promoting of immaturity of the recipients and in consequences withdrawn from the public sphere. On the other hand, the popular culture is consider as a factor important for development of the human capital, the bonding social capital, individuals identity and society’s cohesion. The aim of this paper is to analyse the relationship between popular culture and the civic engagement of youth. First, the basic assumptions of popular culture- civic engagement relations are introduced. The second section is based on the chosen findings of author’s pilot study into the field of The youth identity formation in the mobile society era (N=92). The mutual associations between the popular culture consumption of university students and their level of civic engagement are analysed. The research results show statistical significance of the positive relationship in the sample between analysed factors. The higher is level of students’ cultural participation and media consumption, the higher is level of their civic engagement. The article concludes with the explanation of those findings, which may be considered surprising in light of popular culture criticism.

Habeşistan İmparatoru II. Menelik’in Silah Taciri: Serkiz Terziyan (1868-1915)
Authors: ÇAKAR Sinan
Published: December 2020

1868 yılında Osmanlı İmparatorluğu topraklarında Arapgir’de dünyaya gelen Serkiz Terziyan ilerleyen yıllarda bölgede meydana gelen çatışmalar nedeniyle Habeşistan’a göç etmişti. Habeşistan’da yaşayan akrabaları vasıtasıyla ticarete atılan Terziyan, kısa süre içerisinde bölgedeki önemli tüccarlardan biri haline

gelmişti. Ancak hem Habeşistan’daki valilerin birbiriyle mücadelesi hem de İtalya’nın Habeş topraklarını istila etmesi bölgedeki dengeleri alt üst etmişti. Mevcut durum Serkiz Terziyan’ın, Habeşistan İmparatoru II. Menelik ile tanışmasına dek devam etmişti. Daha önce kürk ve fildişi ticareti yapan Terziyan, Habeşistan

İmparatorunun himayesine girdikten sonra Avrupa ve Habeşistan arasında silah ticareti yapmaya başlamıştı. Zira II. Menelik’in, İtalya’ya karşı ülkesini savunabilmesi için Avrupa’da üretilen modern silahlara ihtiyacı vardı. Bu doğrultuda modern silahları temin etmesi için Terziyan’a birtakım imtiyazlar vermişti. Böylelikle imparator için gereken silahları temin etmek maksadıyla Avrupa’ya seyahatler düzenleyen Terziyan, Marsilya-Cibuti-Habeşistan hattında bir silah ticareti ağı kurmuş ve bu ağ sayesinde yıllarca bölgeye silah taşımıştır. Terziyan’ın Avrupa’daki hareketliliği, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun da dikkatini çekmişti. Avrupa’da bulunan Osmanlı elçi ve konsolosları Terziyan’ın faaliyetlerini Bâbıâli’ye rapor etmekteydi. Bu bağlamda Terziyan, bölgedeki Osmanlı diplomatlarını bir süre meşgul etmişti. Terziyan’ın temin ettiği silahlarla donatılan Habeş ordusunun 1896 yılında İtalya’yı mağlup etmesi ise onun tüm dünyada bir popülarite kazanmasına sebep olmuştu. Avrupa ve Amerika basınında kendine yer bulan Terziyan, kazandığı ün ile birlikte faaliyetlerine devam etmişti. Fakat 1906 yılında İtalya, İngiltere ve Fransa gibi devletlerin Kızıldeniz çevresinde ve Afrika özelinde yapılan silah kaçakçılığına engel olacak antlaşmalara imza atması sonucunda bölgedeki silah ticareti büyük oranda kesintiye uğratmıştı. Bu tarihten itibaren Terziyan, hayatının sonuna dek silah ticareti dışında farklı alanlarda faaliyet gösteren bir tüccar konumundaydı. Bu çalışmada silah taciri olan Serkiz Terziyan’ın yarattığı etkiye ve bölgedeki silah ticareti olgusuna yönelik farklı bir bakış açısı sunulması amaçlanmıştır.

In order to solve the problems of elderly citizens, there are various social service institutions, various innovative technologies are being introduced and used, but despite the common efforts of the state and the society to maintain their living standards , many elderly citizens, due to various circumstances, find themselves alone, deprived of the care of the people they are close to. Hence, there is a need to develop new forms of living arrangements for older people who need care and assistance. A foster family for an elderly person is a good alternative to in-patient institutions, first of all, being a possibility of extending the life of elderly citizens in a home family environment. To date, foster families for older citizens do not have a fixed provision in the Federal regulations. Therefore, the entities wishing to introduce the technology create their own regional laws. In order to study this form of living arrangement - a foster family for elderly citizens of Irkutsk Oblast, a sociological study has been conducted using the method of expert survey and SWOT analysis. The result of the expert survey reveals that the technology is quite effective, favorably influencing the psychological state of an elderly person, and also provides an opportunity to live in a family environment in a homelike manner. Based on the data of the study of the foster family for elderly citizens of Irkutsk Oblast, as a form of their life order, the article offers recommendations for further establishing and developing the technology of work with foster families for older citizens on the basis of national practices.

Oyuncunun Sanatı Olarak Aksiyon Yaratmak: Stanislavski, Brecht, Grotowski
Authors: SÖZER ÖZDEMİR Şebnem
Published: December 2020

Aksiyon kavramı 20. yüzyıldan itibaren Batılı tiyatro kuramları içinde oyuncunun sanatı üzerine geliştirilen düşünceler içinde önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Farklı tiyatro uygulamacıları/kuramcılarının bu kavrama getirdiği yeni yorumlar onlara ait kendine özgü tiyatro ve oyunculuk anlayışlarına biçim vermiştir. Bu makale oyuncunun sanatının her şeyden önce aksiyon(lar) yaratmak olduğu fikrini temel alarak, 20. yüzyılda yaşamış üç önemli tiyatro insanı olan Konstantin Stanislavski, Bertolt Brecht ve Jerzy Grotowski’nin aksiyon kavramına yaklaşımlarının ne olduğunu karşılaştırmalı olarak incelemektedir. Amaç bu üç sanatçının her birine ait özgün oyunculuk anlayışının daha derinlikli bir şekilde kavranmasını sağlamaktır. Bu bağlamda Stanislavski’nin geliştirdiği fiziksel aksiyon, Brecht’in karakterin aksiyonuna eklenmesini istediği oyuncu aksiyonu ve Grotowski’nin savunduğu literal aksiyon kavramlarına yakından bakılarak aralarındaki benzerlik ve farklılıklar tartışılmıştır. Sonuçta bu üç yaklaşımın hepsinde oyuncunun sanatının itkilerin keşfi aracılığıyla aksiyonlar yaratmak olarak kabul edildiği ortaya konmuştur. Bununla birlikte, Stanislavski karakterin itkilerinin keşfi aracılığıyla oyuncunun fiziksel aksiyon çizgisinin oluşturmasına odaklanmakta, Brecht karakterin itkileri yanında oyuncunun karakterin aksiyonlarına karşı geliştireceği tavrın da keşfedilmesi gereğini savunmakta, Grotowski ise oyuncuyu gündelik yaşamın dışına taşıyan ve ona bir insan olarak gelişiminde yol gösteren özel aksiyonların ortaya çıkmasına yol açacak itkilerin peşine düşmektedir.

Authors: SEYHAN Sonat
Published: December 2020

Geçmişte zaman zaman Selefkos devleti ve Karaman beyliğinin başkenti olan Silifke, Erzurum Horasan’dan göçen Türk obalarının da merkezi olmuş ve bu sayede zengin bir halk kültürü merkezi haline gelmiştir. Silifke yöresi konar göçerlerinin (Yörüklerin) Türküleri de yörenin kültürünü yansıtan folklorik unsurlarını oluşturmaktadır. Derlenen ve notaya alınan Silifke Türküleri ile ilgili, müzikolojik açıdan bilimsel bir saha araştırması ve derlemesi yapılmamış olması, bu makalenin oluşumu ve ortaya konma sebebidir. Makalede insan, kültür, Silifke yöresi, Yörükler ve halk müziği kavramlarıyla ilgili bilgiler verilmiş, ve kavramlar halkbilimi araştırmacılarının görüşleriyle birlikte açıklanmıştır. Araştırma alanımız olan Silifke’nin dağ köylerinde konargöçer (Yörük) olarak yaşayan kişilerden derlenen ve kayıt altına alınan bu türkülerin tespiti yapılmıştır. Çalışmamızdaki kaynak kişiler Taşucu nahiyesinden Ahmet Bülbül, Burunucu köyünden Ahmet Ali Çavuş’tur. 1960 ve 1976 yılında makaralı teybe ses kayıtları alınmış ve notaya aktarılmıştır. Makalemizde derlenen türkülerin sesli kayıtlardan notaya aktarılmasında azami dikkat ve titizlik gösterilmiştir. Silifke müzik folkloru ile ilgili doğru, eksiksiz ve bilimsel bilgilere ulaşılması hedeflenmiştir. Geçmişimizden gelen bu türkülerin gelecek nesillere bozulup yozlaşmadan gerçeklerine uygun bir şekilde aktarılmasının sağlanmasına önem verilmiştir. Kaynaklarımızın başında türkülerimizi derleyen Özcan Seyhan gelmektedir. Derlenen bu türküler makaralı teypten tarafımca notaya aktarılmıştır. Araştırma kaynak derlemesine dayalı niteliksel bir çalışmadır. Mersin (İçel) ilinin Silifke ilçesinde yapılan derleme çalışması neticesinde serbest ölçülü iki yeni türkü derlenmiş ve notaya alınmıştır.
Copy of Quantification of plant hormones by standard addition method v1
Authors: Hashiguchi Takuyu , Hashiguchi Masatsugu , Tanaka Hidenori , Fukushima Koki , Gondo Takahiro , Akashi Ryo
Published: December 2020

Phytohormones are essential signaling molecules in multiple plant processes, including growth, development, and stress response. Simultaneous quantification of multiple plant hormones is required for understanding plant physiology because hormones typically change in tandem in response to external stimuli. Sensitive and quantitative analysis using liquid chromatography linked mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) adopts stable isotope-labeled compounds in previously published works. However, the method for quantifying phytohormones when isotopically labeled chemicals are not available remain to be established. This protocol can be used for measuring plant hormone content by standard addition method. Standard addition method has been used for quantification of various compounds such as drugs and pesticides especially when it is difficult to obtain stable isotope-labeled compound. Plant hormones are extracted from plant material such as Lotus japonicus with organic solvent and partially purified with reversed-phase solid-phase extraction (SPE) and ready for LC-MS analysis. Calibration curve is constructed by spiking pure standards to matrix. The method allows us to quantify plant hormones in plant tissue of interest by correcting matrix effects.
The Digital Transactions Currency for the BRICS
Authors: Zharikov Mikhail V.
Published: December 2020

The article deals with the circulation of a digital currency as a worldwide problem. The topic has theoretical and practical significance because price stability, economic growth and development and market equilibrium depend on the quality of this circulation. Currency digitization has become a particularly acute issue with the outbreak of COVID-19, which made central banks to think about contactless means of payment. The research identified the significance of the most important macroeconomic indicators which may characterise the hypothetical shared digital currency for the BRICS, namely, a shared interest rate and the quantity of digital money in circulation needed for the international use. The exchange rate of the BRICS digital currency, if it ever goes into being, is going to heavily depend on the amount of the interest rate of the hypothetical creditor of last resort. This problem is quite significant, since for the international circulation it is very important to know the proportions in which the digital currency is to be exchanged for the currencies of other countries. The theoretical significance of the article is the development of a model’s basis to find the exchange rate of the digital currency. The practical significance of the paper is that it contains recommendations for foreign-exchange-market players to optimise their investment portfolios as well as for monetary authorities in the emerging economies to make some policy choices

La topada de poetas
Authors: Rodríguez Hernández Agustín
Published: December 2020

El presente trabajo analiza una expresión de literatura de tradición oral de México: el huapango arribeño. La zona de influencia de esta tradición es la Zona Media de San Luis Potosí y la Sierra Gorda que abarca los estados de Guanajuato y Querétaro. Como eje central del análisis se encuentra la topada entre don Cándido Martínez y don Agapito Briones que se llevó a cabo el 16 de diciembre de 1987 en Villa Juárez, San Luis Potosí con motivo de un aniversario ejidal.El primer objetivo de este trabajo ha sido establecer vínculos entre la tradición del huapango arribeño y las otras manifestaciones de literatura popular que utilizan la glosa en décimas como estructura principal para sus composiciones. Se encontró que no sólo hay fórmulas y motivos recurrentes, sino que también se pueden encontrar formas de composición y recursos discursivos semejantes en distintas latitudes y todos ellos supeditados a la sintaxis de la décima.El segundo objetivo que se planteó fue establecer un diálogo con el cual se pudiera dilucidar el significado de la denominación “huapango arribeño”. En este sentido fue muy valiosa la aportación de Rolando Pérez, ya que se pudo vincular el aspecto festivo, ritual, con este concepto; además su propuesta de etimología múltiple fue muy sugerente para establecer que el concepto, en realidad, es complejo por los distintos elementos y características los que hace referencia.El tercer objetivo fue hacer un estudio sobre el contexto literario en el que surgió la décima y establecer la labor de Vicente Espinel con respecto a ella. Se pudo observar que los elementos que constituyen a esta estrofa ya existían con anterioridad a Espinel, esto sirvió de base para cambiar el enfoque y centrar la atención en la sintaxis de la décima y de las estrofas precedentes a ellas. Esta nueva perspectiva fue de gran ayuda para solventar la discusiónsobre el inventor de la estrofa y centrarla en la lógica discursiva inherente a esta estrofa y en la labor de sus cultores.El cuarto objetivo fue hacer un análisis de una topada con la intención de observar tópicos y fórmulas recurrentes. Un aspecto importante en este sentido fue observar la importancia que le dan los trovadores a los viejos maestros, a los cuales vinculan con el origen de la tradición. Además, se pudo apreciar que hay elementos recurrentes en el lenguaje y en el discurso que mantienen una línea de cohesión a lo largo de la topada y que esto configura el lenguaje particular de cada trovador, al mismo tiempo que le permite memorizar y recordar la gran cantidad de versos que canta en una noche.

Published: December 2020

Introduction: Parkinson’s disease (PD) causes impairments in postural control and mobility that affect the individual’s independence. Manual therapy has been used in the treatment of these disorders and can change mobility and postural control. Objective: To assess the immediate effects of an approach in high cervical and occipitomastoid on postural control and mobility of individuals with PD. Method: Three individuals with PD, females, aged 52 to 73 years, participated in this case series. Participants were assessed immediately before and after therapeutic intervention through releases of suboccipital muscles and occipitomastoid sutures. Trunk mobility, functional mobility and postural control (center of pressure parameters - COP) were evaluated. Results: All participants demonstrated improvements in trunk mobility. Participants 1 and 2 slightly improved functional mobility. Participants 1 and 2 showed a decrease in the medial-lateral displacement of the COP. All participants showed increases in at least one direction to the limits of stability. Conclusions: The results showed that the intervention appears more effective on trunk mobility. Variables related to postural control changed with no consistent pattern. Further studies could investigate the association of other manual therapy techniques and their effects on mobility and postural control in individuals with PD.

Published: December 2020

The article provides a literature review of the methods for the prevention of local infectious complications preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative. The analysis of the literature is devoted to the methods of prevention of postoperative purulent inflammatory wound complications. The review of scientific medical literature is based on the analysis of this problem. The article presents risk factors that contribute to the development of postoperative wound complications. Classification of surgical wounds was adopted to determine the risk of developing a surgical site infection (SSI), which distinguishes 4 classes: clean, conditionally clean, contaminated and dirty. The presented classification is based on the postoperative assessment of the wound bacterial contamination rate. The ClavienDindo classification of postoperative complications is the most relevant. This classification presents the tactics of the surgeon, depending on the class. The results of various studies indicate that antibiotic prophylaxis in the preoperative period reduces the development of local complications. The description of prevention methods focuses on intraoperative methods (devices for bringing together the edges of the wound, devices for treating wounds, surgical needles, suture material) and various types of antiseptics, which can reduce tissue damage during surgical interventions, reduce microbial contamination and the number of wound postoperative complications. Intraoperative instrumental methods allow less pronounced trauma to the wound during its processing and suturing. The postoperative method for diagnosing wound complications is an ultrasound method, which determines various formations in a postoperative wound.

Published: December 2020

The publication presents an analysis of the modern regulatory framework for labor, shows controversial positions on each component of the labor rationing system in healthcare. The amount of normative time spent on visits to outpatient doctors, established by orders of the Ministry of Health of Russia, in the main medical specialties: doctors-therapists district, pediatricians district and general practitioners (family doctors), does not coincide with the data of the territorial program. Approved more than 20 years ago and currently in force standards for laboratory and instrumental examinations do not correspond to the modern equipment of medical organizations. The numbers of health workers providing primary health care to the population, established by the orders on Procedures and Regulations, for the majority of medical personnel have different meanings in the simultaneously valid regulatory documents for the provision of medical care to both adults and children. The planned and normative volume of work on outpatient care has not been reported since 2013, either in visits or in appeals about diseases. The planned and normative indicators for the amount of hospital care are characterized by sharp annual changes that are not justified either by the morbidity of the population or by the technologies of the medical process, do not correspond to the actual development of the bed stock and are not reflected by healthcare practice. Based on the analysis of time standards, norms of number and planned volume of work, the authors make a reasonable conclusion about serious problems in the system of labor rationing in healthcare. The authors identified the necessary measures for its restoration and revision of the entire labor regulatory framework, which are the need to include labor rationing issues in the program of diploma and postgraduate training of doctors in a healthcare organization; advanced training of developers of staff standards and specialists approving these documents; mandatory expert assessment of documents on labor standards prior to their approval by qualified specialists on labor standardization in health care.

Fakat bununla birlikte benzetmedeki teşbih yönünün tespitinde ondan fazla yorum yapıldığı gözlenmiştir. Diğer taraftan ayetin bundan dolayı lafzı ile başlayarak gerekçesini önceki ayette yer alan Kabil’in Habil’i öldürme hadisesi ile irtibatlandırması ve İsrailoğulları'na şöyle yazmıştık buyurarak tahsis edici bir üslup takip etmesi, bu ayetin etraflıca ele alınmasını gerekli kılmaktadır. Bu makalede, Müslümanların yazı ve konuşmalarında özel bir yer işgal eden hatta gayr-i müslimlerin de aşina oldukları bu ayetteki ifade buyurulan benzetmenin, daha iyi anlaşılmasına katkı sunulmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu bağlamda ayete dair geniş bir yelpazede müfessirlerin yorumları gruplandırılmış ve yapılan tefsirler analiz edilmiş ve sonunda da ayetin meali ve tefsiri hakkında bir tercih sunulmuştur.

Prevalence and correlates of neurodevelopmental disorders among children in India: a narrative review
Authors: Gaikwad Leena , Lagala Sravani
Published: December 2020

Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) are seen disproportionately affecting the low-income communities. Paucity of consistent and large-scale studies in India and variations in assessment and diagnostic tools reduce the scope for generalization of prevalence estimates to national level. This review tried to consolidate the existing community-based evidence of the prevalence of NDDs, risk factors and comorbidities among children in India. We searched studies related to the review objectives on search engines PubMed and Google Scholar. The community or school-based studies in India, published in English language were included. The prevalence of each of these NDDs differed in different locations and age groups. The prevalence appeared to be increasing with increase in age. Non-institutional delivery, perinatal asphyxia or delayed crying, low birth weight or prematurity, neonatal illness or neurological infections were significantly associated with the NDDs. Most of the significant risk factors are modifiable with the help of effective programs to improve maternal and child healthcare and nutrition. Further large-scale, good-quality epidemiological studies in community settings are needed to develop and prioritize the delivery of the prevention and rehabilitation interventions.
Cherenkov Radiation of Gravitational Waves
Authors: Cheng Zhi
Published: December 2020

If the velocity of gravitational waves is less than the speed of light, the velocity of mass motion may exceed the velocity of gravitational waves. This will cause Cherenkov-like radiation similar to electromagnetic interaction. The Cherenkov-like radiation of gravitational waves will produce a relatively specific observable effect. Due to the concentrated release of energy, the easiest to observe is that a large number of photons are radiated from the Cherenkov-like radiation source to form optical effects of high intensity and relatively special shapes. The speed of gravitational waves is less than the speed of light, because the compression of space and time by very large masses causes the gravitational waves to travel less in the masses than the speed of light. The mass of the material itself is not affected by this space-time compression. Thus, under certain conditions, the velocity of the mass of matter exceeds the velocity of the gravitational wave, forming a Cherenkov-like effect. A typical example is the aura of special structures formed by the supernova explosion. Among them, the supernova 1987A has been in existence for more than 30 years. After several years of the explosion, through the observation of the high-resolution Hubble telescope, it was found that the supernova 1987A showed two distinct auras in its explosion direction. There are many explanations for how these halos are formed. This paper points out that the formation of the two halos of the supernova 1987A is related to the propagation of gravitational waves in the mass of matter. Due to the very high mass density of the supernova explosion area, the space-time compression effect is very obvious, which will cause the gravitational wave to have a wave speed less than the speed of light. The material ejected by the supernova after exploding is close to the speed of light, and it is easy to exceed the velocity of gravitational waves propagating in the cosmic fluid around the supernova explosion, which will form the shock wave effect of gravitational waves. The Cherenkov effect of gravitational waves can also be used to explain the origin of high-intensity photon radiation in some galaxy centers. When the black hole in the center of the galaxy attracts the outer mass, the closer it is to the central black hole, the faster it moves. In the right position, the mass moves faster than the gravitational wave. The Cherenkov-like radiation of gravitational waves will be product. In addition, if there is a white hole, the energy is continuously released from the source of the white hole, which will also cause the mass ejection speed to exceed the speed of the gravitational wave, and thus produces the Cherenkov-like effect. Since the dynamic mechanism of the black hole and the white hole are different, by observing the Cherenkov-like effect of the center of the galaxy, it can effectively distinguish whether the center of the galaxy is a white hole or a black hole.

Authors: Wu Qing
Published: December 2020

After a lot of analysis and exploration, the researchers said that at present, there are still some shortcomings in the process of developing the earth science talents training in Chinese universities, which leads to the relatively low level of the earth science talents training, which is not conducive to the cultivation and construction of the earth science talents, and has a very adverse impact on the development of China’s earth science field. To solve this problem, college teachers should actively change and innovate their teaching ideas, so as to effectively realize the transformation of earth science talents training mode, and lay a solid foundation and guarantee for the construction of earth science talents in China. In this paper, the development of geoscience talents education in colleges and universities in China at present is analyzed, and the corresponding countermeasures are put forward in combination with teaching practice, aiming at further realizing the cultivation of geoscience talents, thus delivering fresh blood for the development of geoscience in China.

Authors: Molokova E. R. , Ryzhkova D. V.
Published: December 2020

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare and severe form of pulmonary hypertension, which is characterized by pulmonary vascular remodeling, as well as metabolic and functional alterations in the right ventricular myocardium. The proven metabolic shift towards anaerobic glycolysis in the heart and lungs can be quantitatively and qualitatively evaluated with a molecular imaging technique — 2-[18F] fluoro-2-deoxy-Dglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET). This review is devoted to the analysis of foreign scientific publications. There are presented research results that prove the diagnostic value of fused PET/computer tomography (CT) (PET/CT) images with FDG and other promising radiopharmaceuticals in patients with PAH. This tool allows estimation of the severity of the disease, to determine the clinical prognosis and monitor the effectiveness of treatment in each case. Furthermore, the methods of molecular visualization allow the analysis of the PAH pathogenesis and description of the new biologic targets, such as development factors of endothelial dysfunction and remodeling of pulmonary vasculature.
Effect of Improved Agronomic Approaches on Growth and Yield of Redgram [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] under Rainfed Ecosystem
Authors: Ammaiyappan A. , Sakthivel S. , Veeramani A. , Kannan P.
Published: December 2020

Background: Redgram is an important food legume which is largely cultivated under rainfed condition. In India rainfed agriculture contributes 80% of the total pulses production and the projected requirement will be 39 million tons by 2050 which necessitates an annual growth rate of 2.2%. The productivity has to be increased from the present level of 834 kg ha-1 to 1200 kg ha-1. With adoption of suitable agronomic management strategies the productivity could be increased to meet our demand and achieve self sufficiency in production. Hence the current study was carried out to increase the productivity of redgram under rainfed condition. Methods: Field experiment was conducted in farmer’s field in Madurai district, Tamil Nadu during North East Monsoon season of 2019 to study the effect of improved agronomic manipulations on growth and yield of redgram under rainfed ecosystem. Agronomic management approaches viz., nipping of primary branches at 45 and 60 days after receipt of soaking rain, high density planting at 30 cm × 30 cm in addition to recommended spacing of 60 cm × 30 cm and foliar application of 1% PPFM spray were compared with farmer’s practice in the redgram variety Co (RG) 7. Pre monsoon sowing has been taken up and the rainfall received during the cropping period was 521.7 mm received in 31 rainy days. Result: The field experimental results revealed that adoption of agronomic manipulation at the appropriate stage of the crop has increased the productivity of redgram. Nipping of primary branches at 45th day of the crop significantly increased the total number of productive branches, number of pods plant-1 and recorded the maximum seed yield of 1512 kg ha-1 (72 per cent increase over farmer’s practice) under rainfed condition.
