Published: April 2023

Introdução: A obesidade, definida como Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) ≥ 30 kg/m2 é uma problemática marcante na saúde pública devido à sua alta prevalência no Brasil. Essa é marcada por um desequilíbrio na microbiota intestinal, denominada disbiose e está inter-relacionada à presença de dois filos bacterianos no trato gastrointestinal (TGI), sendo esses: Firmicutes e Bacteroidetes. Tais mudanças constituem um importante fator na reiteração do contexto em pacientes obesos. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, utilizando as bases de dados PubMed, Scielo, periódicos capes/MEC nas línguas portuguesa e inglesa. Foram selecionados estudos no período de 2018 a 2021, sendo eles revisões da literatura, estudo descritivo transversal, os quais fizeram a relação de pacientes obesos e não obesos com a microbiota, excluindo-se os que não relacionaram a microbiota intestinal com a obesidade e estudos repetidos. Resultados: Vários estudos retrataram a obesidade como presença de disbiose intestinal. Em pessoas obesas, a disbiose intestinal parece estar relacionada aos aumentos do filo Firmicutes, do gênero Clostridium e da espécie Eubacterium rectale, Clostridium coccoides, Lactobacillus reuteri, Akkermansia muciniphila, Clostridium histolyticum e Staphylococcus aureus. Discussão: O estudo avaliou a relação entre as alterações na microbiota e o ganho de peso, sendo que o aumento na prevalência da obesidade, sua relação com microbiota intestinal e dieta vem sendo amplamente discutido. Além disso, o papel genético na determinação do risco de obesidade foi comprovado em diversos trabalhos. Conclusão: Observou-se que a obesidade foi associada a uma diminuição de Bacteroidetes e um aumento de Firmicutes em animais.
Are There Any Differences Between the Study of Animal Viruses and Other Species?
Authors: Venegas Carlos Navarro
Published: April 2023

One Health: an updated term. Perhaps it means that there should not be major differences between the methodologies that involve the study of pathogens typical of humans and other animals. The techniques are similar, the analysis carried out does not differ and the conclusions are direct. Unlike Human Medicine, Veterinary Medicine is a multispecies discipline that must also provide a solution to the patient. The study of a viral cycle goes back to the study of the “metabolism” of bacteriophages and today several pathways are known through a virus affecting the permissive cell. Legend has it that when André Lwoff was asked for a definition of a virus, he said: viruses are viruses. Let’s see why…

Rehearsing Upload
Authors: Sikau Lea Luka
Published: April 2023

This article examines the process of developing a posthuman opera, Michel van der Aa’s Upload (2021), from the perspective of a rehearsal ethnography. Proposing a rehearsal-oriented ontology of opera, this article avoids discussions of the performance and even the music itself to focus on stages of rehearsing with a virtual body. As a participant-observer, I examine how the rehearsal space of Upload evolves into a laboratory that negotiates receptacles of digital data with congenital bodies. Dissecting the avatar as a compound of (non)human agents, I interrogate how rehearsing a virtual body reconfigures operatic production dynamics. The operatic rehearsal processes repetition and connection, and co-evolves together with the technologies of production. With the example of various agents’ interactions during the rehearsal, I illustrate how the figure of the avatar reproduces Upload out of canonical rehearsal practices by recalibrating the connections between opera’s agents. These elaborations lead to an understanding of van der Aa as a composer who recalibrates himself into the posthuman form of an opera production.

Introduction: Metabolic syndrome is the association of chronic diseases related to diet and physical activity. Also recognized as a complex entity that associates well-established cardiovascular risk factors, such as hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and diabetes, among others, with central fat deposition and insulin resistance. Currently, Metabolic Syndrome has gained disturbing dimensions within clinical practice, becoming one of the greatest challenges at the beginning of this century. In contrast, the Mediterranean diet recognized by the combination of a tasty palate and nutritional benefits, in addition to the culture of its link between health and longevity is a strategy in the treatment of metabolic syndrome. Although there is no consensus on the most adequate nutritional strategy to treat Metabolic Syndrome (MS) in a way that reduces cardiovascular risk, recent studies show the efficacy of adopting healthy lifestyles capable of reversing this trend. Objective: To address the role of diet in MS therapy, with a primary focus on the interaction of the benefits of different nutritional interventions in the remission of MS, contributing to the integration of the current evidence in the preexisting context. Methods: The model followed for the systematic review was PRISMA. The search strategy was carried out in the databases PubMed, Embase, Ovid and Cochrane Library, Web Of Science, Science Direct Journals (Elsevier), Scopus (Elsevier), and OneFile (Gale), from September to November 2022, with articles in the last years. Results and Conclusion: In light of the studies carried out in the research it was found that the Mediterranean diet has shown benefits in the secondary prevention of this syndrome, although the underlying mechanisms are not completely clear. It is important to revitalize and apply this diet in the future in terms of preventive and therapeutic guidelines.

Authors: Hu Manran
Published: April 2023

The modern ink painting in China started in the 1980s and it didn't become popular until the  late 1990s. Up till now, it has become a major branch of Chinese art and painting. This paper makes a brief review on the historical development of Chinese ink painting based on the current studies on the topic. Compared with the western painting, the Chinese ink painting enjoys a special position in terms of spiritual forms, Artistic function, Language Structure, ink and brush form. The study finds that ink painting has a strong philosophical conception of Chinese cultural traditions and an ideology that matches its history, culture and religious beliefs. The values and ideology of the traditional Chinese philosophical outlook can be glimpsed in ink painting, and the ancient subsistence smallholder economic system also permeated and influenced the way of painting in terms of economic and social development. This influence ultimately reflected in the ancient philosophical system of thinking .

Published: April 2023

Increasing the sensor's lifespan is a major barrier to the major spreading use of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The mentioned problem is fixed by implementing Energy Harvesting (EH) sensors. Their usable lives could be increased by finding the energy they require from their surroundings in a number of different ways. We take into account a Wireless Energy Harvesting Sensor Network (WEHSN) based on TDMA where the time slot consists of two-time intervals, the first of which is utilized for sensor data transmission and the second of which is utilized for energy absorption. We analyze the effective resource allocation in WEHSN, in which energy harvest sensors be permitted for broadcasting their output stream if the quantity of energy it has gained exceeds the amount of power it has consumed, under consideration of things such as planning of timer and TX power usage. The closed-form equation of the energy efficiency modification issue is created using the Dinkelbach method, and it is then converted in to the parametric form. The new problem is then solved using Karush- Kuhn-Tucker criteria. The analytical solutions show that the suggested strategy is viable. Key Words: Energy Efficiency, Resource Allocation, Energy Harvesting, Wireless Sensor Networks.

Abstract—In this paper, a high-speed 32-bit single precision Floating Point Unit (FPU) using Vedic mathematics is proposed. In a general processor, the division architecture plays a crucial role in deciding the overall speed of the system. However, the standard algorithms are sequential units and reduce the performance of the processor. Vedic Mathematics onthe other hand offers a new holistic approach to realizing these operations in a combinational unit. In the proposed architecture an optimized binary division architecture using Nikhilam Sutra is realized. The proposed method is coded in Verilog High Description Language (HDL), synthesized for Artix 7 Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) board, and simulated using Xilinx Vivado Design Suite. Keywords:-Floating- points, Vedic maths, Nikhilam Sutra.

Published: April 2023

One of the most crucial aspects of dam construction is stability under a seismic load. The breakdown of the dam could cause a catastrophic effect on downstream areas. For that, the safety of the facilities lies in their stability. Dams must be stable and withstand the loads placed on them. They are national security facilities. Because dam collapse causes unbridled humanitarian, economic, and social disasters, its construction must be scrutinized and strive to reach the best design with the best materials. The researchers sought to conduct several studies to know the dam’s behaviour during earthquakes, the role of their geometric dimensions, and the technical condition of the soil on which the dam was founded or formed. The simulation and the results indicated that the soil liquefaction state should be reduced, and the three-dimensional results should be analyzed to predict the locations and forms of deformations and the ability to deal with them

Image segmentation is an effective computer vision method that expands on the concept of object. Recognition and brings in a whole new era of image data manipulation. This method offers up so many options and may be performed in several ways. However, in this paper, threshold and channel image separation were employed to perform two types of segmentation. Thresholding is a regional segmentation in and of itself. However, thresholding alone is insufficient to properly segment the image, necessitating the employment of additional image processing techniques, such as the morphological process, to provide sharper segmentation. Depending on the color diversity of the image's pixels, different segmentation parameters, such as the thresholding value and structuring element for the morphological process, are required for image segmentation. Overall, the two images have been successfully segmented via two distinct methods

Authors: Ng Lee Chuen , Abd Razak Shamsul Bahri , Rudiyanto  , Tan Say Peng , Tufail Ahmad Fauziah
Published: April 2023

The high moisture content of stingless bee honey (SBH) is a worrisome problem and heat treatment is used to reduce the moisture and maintain the honey’s quality by destroying the microorganisms that affect the physico-chemical properties of honey during storage. Low heat treatment (45 °C) for 0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min were conducted to determine the total microbial activity using fluorescein diacetate hydrolysis (FDA). The total microbial population that subsequently affected the physico-chemical properties was also analyzed. The total microbial activities of SBH were significantly reduced after thermal treatment at 45 °C for 90 min (63.76 µg FDA/g/h) and 120 min (62.43 µg FDA/g/h) compared with control (67.127 µg FDA/g/h). Also, the moisture content, electrical conductivity (EC), pH, and free acidity of the heat-treated SBH at all durations were significantly reduced compared with the control. The total microbial activity was detected as significantly correlated to bacterial and fungal populations, moisture content, EC, pH, and free acidity of low heat-treated SBH. Low heat treatment at 45 °C for 120 min was efficient to reduce the total microbial activity, and total acidity, and increasing the pH of SBH. Prolonging the heating duration is suggested to further reduce the water content, and total microbial activity and further increase the shelf life of SBH.

Türkiye farklı iklim kuşaklarını içinde barından nadir ülkelerden biridir. Oldukça soğuk bölgelerinin yanında ılıman iklim gösteren bölgeleri de bulunmaktadır. Bu çeşitlilik iklimlendirme uygulamalarında tek tip bir yöntem kullanılmasını da sınırlamaktadır. Güneyinde yer alan illerde ısıtma uygulamalarında çoğu zaman geleneksel elektrikli ısıtıcılar yeterli olurken, diğer bölgelerde yoğun olarak doğalgaz kullanılmaktadır. Diğer taraftan toprak kaynaklı ısı pompaları dünyada alternatif iklimlendirme sistemleri olarak kullanılmaya başlamıştır. Fakat bu sistemlerin ilk kurulum maliyetleri kullanımını oldukça sınırlamaktadır. Fakat son yıllarda enerji arzında yaşanan sorunlar özellikle de Avrupa bölgesindeki doğalgaz arzındaki sıkıntılar ciddi boyutlara ulaşmıştır. Bu kapsamda, bu çalışmada ısıtma uygulamalarında toprak kaynaklı ısı pompası ile doğalgaz sistemi karşılaştırılmış ve tekno-ekonomik analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar ile de bu sistemlerin yaygın kullanımı sağlamak için devlet tarafından sağlanması gereken optimum teşvik miktarları belirlenmiştir. Mevcut duruma göre yaklaşık %65 oranında teşvik gerektiği öngörülse de Avrupa bölgesindeki doğalgaz birim fiyat artışları göz önüne alındığında bu oran %36,8’e kadar düşmektedir.

Purpose: This study examines the impact of trade liberalization (TL) on female labor force participation (FLFP) during the trade regime period in Pakistan, using sectoral panel data of the manufacturing sector for the period of 1990-2005.
Design/Methodology/Approach: We employed panel fixed effects (FEM) and Instrumental-variable (IV) regression models for empirical analysis.
Findings: Our study reveals that trade liberalization and FLFP are associated. Trade liberalization increases FLFP in the manufacturing sector. The results of both measures of FLFP (i.e., the share of female employment, and female-to-male ratio) verify each other findings. Our findings are robust to the inclusion of various control variables. Furthermore, our IV analysis also confirms that liberalization has given rise to female employment in the manufacturing sector. Our policy implication is that the government should liberalize trade sectors that can help to enhance FLFP.
Originality/Value: This study adds to the existing literature by exploring the association between TL and FLFP in the manufacturing sector of Pakistan by utilizing a better proxy of reductions in import tariffs for TL. The reduction of import tariffs is a policy-based measure that captures the pure impacts of trade policy as compared to outcome-based measures (i.e., trade ratios). We also consider the whole trade regime as a sample period (i.e., from 1990-2005) to examine the core impacts of the trade regime, as import tariffs drastically reduced during this period. Furthermore, we use two measures of FLFP for the analysis, i.e., the share of female employment, and the female-to-male ratio. Lastly, our use of sectoral panel data strengthens the empirical analysis.
Ruskin Bond's Looking for The Rainbow: My Years with Daddy: An account of Adventures and Misadventures in the Life of Ruskin Bond
Authors: Shaleen Kumar Singh
Published: April 2023

One of India's most adored authors, Ruskin Bond is well known for his touching prose and heartfelt tales. His autobiography, Searching for the Rainbow: My Years with Daddy, details his life's journey from early childhood through adolescence and his triumphs and setbacks. Ruskin Bond gives readers a look into his lovely upbringing in the little Indian town of Dehradun towards the beginning of the book. He talks about his father's time in the Indian Air Force and the effects his absence during World War II had on the family. Yet at this point, Ruskin Bond fell in love with reading and writing. Ruskin Bond was an inquisitive, daring child who frequently got himself into trouble. Throughout the book, he describes a number of instances where he was busted for stealing mangoes, engaged in altercations with other boys, and even got lost in the woods. Despite his naughty personality, his father constantly supported him and urged him to be loyal to himself.
Healing Power of Wordsworth’s Romantic Poetry
Authors: Prof. Mirza Sibtain Beg
Published: April 2023

Poetry has immense potential to soothe the senses and heat the wounds. Through poetry, mental health and peace of mind can be maintained with pace immeasurable. The waves of passion that runs through poet’s sensibility, soothes the senses of the readers. Poetry reading, writing and listening casts good therapeutic effects. Poetry provides peace, calmness, and comfort to the minds by elevating mood in distress and duress. Studies show that poetry therapy proves a boon to patients suffering from serious ailments and augment their emotional resilience and brings joy in their life. Our brains are electrified with rhyme and rhythm of the poetry to give emotional reaction to joy and sadness both. Like sweet melody of music, poetry heals our emotional hurts. The metaphors embellish the poetic lines with magical brilliance, and they glitter with astute meaning and message. Diction plays a very emphatic role in discerning poet’s leanings. Reflection, perception and attachment are interwoven in diction so inextricably that they turn poet’s mouthpiece, and roar and rave with perfect resonance to poetic experiences. Through the intoxicated taken-for- grantedness of the laidback reading public will take somersault by the melody of the tone and exquisiteness of diction. The paper, however, explores how poetry can be a natural tool to heal mental stress, trauma, and agony and maintain mental health well.  We will examine some poetic utterances of great romantic poet William Wordsworth and see how they can be a tool to heal the emotional hurts and wounds. Moreover, we will too examine that how the nature can extend peace, purpose, poise to mind.
Introduction to Pashtun Women’s Poetry
Authors: Ahmad Gul Momand & Fahim Rahimi
Published: April 2023

Much of human emotions are expressed via poetry and other literary genres but when it comes to women in Pashtun society we lose their voices. Afzal Raza believes it is impossible for Pashtun women to speak about their pain and misery or any other feelings (Raza). As women could be persecuted for writing poetry in Pashtun society thus much of the folklore poetry came to existence by female speakers anonymously. Recently, New York Times reported about several young girls set themselves on fire after they were caught reciting poetry to an FM radio from home (Griswold). Reading about women casualties for their poetry, Raza shall be true saying that Tapa or Landay (a two-verse poetry) is the ancient form of poems mostly created by women that still exist as its writer is unknown but has its female speaker for us to understand it. To study Pashtun women and their poetry Tapa or Landay is the primary source to begin (Raza).
