Authors: - Francisco H. Bernal , - Ena A. Bernal
Published: April 2024

The water and wastewater construction company (WWCC) plays an important role maintaining water sustainability for human. It is a very intricate industry vulnerable to disruptions, delays, and disputes in times of crisis or pandemic. It is a system that has internal interactions on its 5Ms of management such as Man, Material, Machine, Method, and Money that are sensitive to change affected by external environment which in turn affected their current projects.
One of the external factors that affected WWCC in the year 2020 is the occurrence of coronavirus covid19. During the pandemic, the global construction industry including WWCC have experienced drastically altered risk environment applied to funding, labor shortages, material delays, suspension, and termination of contracts (Barriere 2020). The pandemic has affected WWCC’s 5Ms of management that ranges that eventually affected the triple constraints of projects such as scope, time, and cost.
The study has determined the level of severity of the effect before and during covid19 to WWCC’s 5Ms of management that eventually affected the three interdependent constraints of projects. The data gathered before and during covid19 were compared and ultimately utilized in formulating the adaptive mechanism for WWCC in coping with the disruption of projects during crisis. The adaptive mechanism comprises of the precontemplation and contemplation phases. During pandemic, WWCC has to determine if there is a need for change in their organization. They have to adapt through precontemplation through internal and external scanning and situational analysis in order for them to comprehend and adapt to the change. WWCC upon realizing of the needed change, has to continue with the contemplation stage by utilizing the stop, start and continue (SSC) principle. To be more precise with the implementation of change, WWCC has to exercise pause, focus and identify prior to executing the SSC principle, followed by implementation, action, and maintenance.

Considerations about the evolution of steam formation in discontinuous evaporating crystallizers by utilizing a camera
Authors: Geisendörfer Felix , Flöter Eckhard
Published: April 2024

Steam formation in discontinuous evaporating crystallizers experiences several transitions throughout the progress of a strike due to the applied processing methods. A microscope detects steam bubbles 0.3 m above the calandria at the wall of a typical batch evaporating crystallizer. The optical results of 15 strikes are analyzed and evaluated in the respective process control system data context. Excessive amounts of bubbles are only detected during the early stages of a strike, which agrees with the general assessment of the evaporation within the evaporating crystallizer regarding an upwards-moving steam formation front. Vapor contents close to PCS data estimations and literature reports are determined incidentally. The suitable utilization of cameras can offer more comprehensive information about the state of the process than is currently available.

Authors: Aini Julpa Nurul , Noza Hilbertina  , Pamelia Mayorita
Published: April 2024

Background: Collecting duct carcinoma (CDC) is one of the rare pathological subtypes of renal cell carcinoma, with high malignancy and poor prognosis. Pathological examination is the gold standard in confirming the diagnosis of CDC. CDC is described as a tumor that has a tubulopapillary architecture and forms a hobnail pattern along the glandular tube.
Case presentation: A 56-year-old woman with the main complaint of a lump in the right abdomen for 1.5 months before entering the hospital. The lump in the stomach is getting bigger, complaints are accompanied by intermittent pain, nausea, vomiting, body feeling weak, and decreased appetite. The patient then underwent a CT-Scan examination of the abdomen and concluded that fluid/water was found next to the right kidney, and a hypodense lesion appeared in segment 6 of the right lobe of the liver. Histopathological examination of large tissue shows pieces of kidney tissue with a connective tissue capsule on the outside containing glomeruli and tubules lined by cuboidal epithelium as well as a proliferation of tumor cells that grow infiltratively in the connective tissue stroma which is partly desmoplastic and fatty tissue between the glomeruli and tubules. Tumor cells are arranged to form tubulopapillary and tubulocystic structures. These cells with pleomorphic nuclei, some hyperchromatic, some vesicular, coarse chromatin, clear nuclei, and atypical mitoses can be found and tumor cell embolism in the blood vessels and perineural invasion can be seen. There were spots and clusters of lymphocytes and plasma cells as well as areas of bleeding and necrosis.
Conclusion: The patient was diagnosed with collecting duct carcinoma (CDC).

Published: April 2024

Aim: Since decades, decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM)-derived materials have received worldwide attention as promising biomaterials for tissue engineering and biomedical applications. Soluble dECM is a versatile raw material that can be easily engineered into the desired shapes and structures. However, there are still some limitations restricting its use, including low hydrophilicity and smooth surfaces, which negatively influence cell adhesion/spreading. The objective of the present study was to investigate surface modification by nitrogen/hydrogen (N2/H2) low-pressure cold plasma treatment as a potential technique to improve the biological response of bovine pericardium dECM films.
Methods: Bovine pericardium dECM was enzymatically digested and lyophilized prior to the preparation of thin films via solvent-casting method. Changes in surface properties after plasma treatment were investigated using water contact angle (WCA) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements. Immunofluorescence staining and resazurin assay for human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) cultured on the dECM films were used to assess the bioactivity of dECM films. Finally, the hemocompatibility of the films was investigated via clotting time and hemolysis assay.
Results: WCA and XPS results revealed that oxygen (O)- and N-containing functional groups were incorporated onto the film surface and an increase in hydrophilicity was observed after plasma treatment. In vitro experiments showed that cell adhesion in plasma-treated dECM films is much faster if compared to the untreated controls. Moreover, the fibroblast proliferation increased after plasma surface modifications. Finally, the hemocompatibility analysis results indicated a delayed blood clotting and no hemolytic effects for all the tested samples.
Conclusions: These findings confirmed the potential of dECM as raw material for biocompatible thin films fabrication. Additionally, plasma surface treatment emerged as an eco-friendly and cost-effective strategy to enhance in vitro cell attachment and proliferation on dECM films, expanding their applications in biomedicine.

SERGEI YESENIN’S TO PUSHKIN IN THE CONTEXT OF HIS WORK
Authors: Савченко Т.К.
Published: April 2024

В статье анализируется стихотворение С. А. Есенина «Пушкину» с его жанровыми признаками одновременно послания и посвящения, занимающее одно из центральных мест в творчестве поэта. Мотивом памятника Есенин продолжает исконную традицию как русской, так и мировой литературы. Прослеживается история создания произведения, выразившего стремление автора порвать с «богемой» после определенного этапа его творчества – создания поэтического цикла «Москва кабацкая». Творческую эволюцию Есенина на данном этапе подмечала как советская, так и эмигрантская критика. Подчеркивается сходство лирических героев обоих поэтов и доказывается: культовое отношение к Пушкину является одной из важнейших черт есенинского мифотворчества. В этом контексте он отождествляет судьбы – свою и Пушкина, творчество которого для него – эталон поэтического мастерства. В словах Есенина – «Постичь Пушкина – это уже нужно иметь талант» – заключено убеждение: звание подлинного поэта прямо зависит от его способности разгадать тайну гения Пушкина.

The article looks into Sergei Yesenin’s poem «To Pushkin», whose genre can be defined both as an epistle and a dedication. It is one of the most essential pieces in the poet’s body of work. With its subject matter, a monument, Yesenin perpetuates a long-standing tradition of both Russian and world literatures. The article traces the history of the creation of the poem, which is emblematic of the author’s desire to break up with bohemianism after a certain period in his writing during which he penned the poem cycle «Moscow of the Taverns». Yesenin’s artistic evolution «towards Pushkin» has been noted by both Soviet and émigré critics. The article stresses the similarity of both poets’ lyrical subjects and demonstrates that the cult of Pushkin was one of the most important features of Yesenin’s myth-making. In this context he identified his own fate with Pushkin’s, whose work for him was the standard of poetic skill. When Yesenin wrote that «to understand Pushkin, one must already have some talent», he meant that to be a real poet, one had to be able to find out the secret of Pushkin’s genius.
PUSHKIN - AN IMAGE AND A PRECEDENT PHENOMENON IN RUSSIAN SONG TEXTS OF THE 20TH–21ST CENTURIES
Authors: Матрусова А.Н. , Соломонова А.А.
Published: April 2024

В статье поднимается вопрос о функционировании имени Пушкина как прецедентного феномена в русской песенной поэзии от второй трети ХХ века до первой четверти XXI века. Отмечается, что прецедентность самого имени органично сочетается с использованием цитат пушкинских текстов, отсылками к биографии поэта и культурному контексту как Пушкинской, так и современной эпохи. В связи с этим авторы приходят к выводу, что потенциал прецедентности таких имен, как Пушкин, не снижается, а, скорее, наоборот, нарастает по мере изменения и раскрепощения текстовой песенной культуры современного русскоязычного пространства.

The article raises the question of the functioning of the name Pushkin as a precedent phenomenon in Russian song poetry from the second third of the 20th century to the first quarter of the 21st century. It is noted that the precedent nature of the name itself is organically combined with the use of quotations from Pushkin’s texts, references to the poet’s biography and the cultural context of both Pushkin and the modern era. In this regard, the authors come to the conclusion that the precedent potential of such names as Pushkin does not decrease, but rather, on the contrary, increases as the textual song culture of the modern Russian-speaking space changes and becomes emancipated.

The Moderating Effect of Income on the Predictors of Cassava Farmers’ Adoption of Agricultural Technology in Nigeria: A Conceptual Framework
Authors: Nkwuagba John Amaechi , Nkamnebe Anayo D.
Published: April 2024

This study endeavors to construct a comprehensive conceptual framework elucidating the moderating influence of income on factors influencing the adoption of agricultural technology among cassava farmers in Nigeria. Agricultural technology, herein, refers to the innovative utilization of emerging Information and Communication Technologies tailored for agricultural applications within remote environments. The agricultural sector holds paramount significance within the Nigerian economy, engaging nearly 70% of the labor force and contributing over 40% to the gross domestic product. The adoption of technology in agriculture signifies potential enhancements in income, poverty alleviation, improved national nutrition and health, reduced food prices, and employment opportunities. However, the income of cassava farmers plays a pivotal role in ensuring their sustainability. Regrettably, their income streams are often unstable due to fluctuations in market prices, adversely impacting their ability to finance the adoption of technology to bolster productivity. Therefore, this research aims to develop a robust conceptual framework delineating the moderating role of income on the determinants of agricultural technology adoption behavior, particularly pertinent within the Nigerian context. It is imperative to tailor conceptual frameworks specifically for Nigeria, given that frameworks derived from other regions may not be directly applicable to the unique challenges and dynamics of the Nigerian agricultural landscape.

Objectives. To assess the progesterone receptor expression in meningioma patients and to characterize the histopathological and demographic features of them. Materials and methods. A cross sectional study conducted during a period of six months from (April to October 2023) included 50 formalin fixed, paraffin embedded tissue blocks diagnosed histopathologically as meningioma. Progesterone receptor was detected using immunohistochemistry in the other section. Outcomes. The most common location of meningioma was cerebrum (56%) and the most common histopathological type was meningothelial. Regarding progesterone receptor status, negative score was presented in 44% of cases. There is a significant association between progesterone receptor status and both of grade and histopathological type of meningioma. Conclusion. High progesterone receptor positivity was linked to low grade tumors. Meningioma grade and many subtypes can be identified with the use of progesterone receptor expression, particularly in cases that are borderline.

Background. Hemiballismus is a rare hyperkinetic movement disorder characterized by irregular, poorly patterned, high amplitude involuntary movements of the limbs on one side of the body. While being usually a consequence of subthalamic nucleus lesions, hemiballismus is uncommonly associated with stroke in adults. Moreover, many debates remain regarding the physiopathology behind post-stroke hemiballismus and its optimal treatment. Case reports. In this context, the article aims to present two intriguing cases of hemiballismus arising from ischemic stroke, illustrating the intricate interplay between vascular pathology and movement disorders. Case 1 involves a 72-year-old female presenting with sudden onset left hemiballismus following incomplete right middle cerebral artery infarction, who received intravenous thrombolysis and had a good outcome. Case 2, an 80-year-old female presenting with abrupt onset right hemiballismus, with a suboptimal therapeutic response but self-remission after three months. Considering the inconclusive imaging results, this case highlights the diagnostic challenges and dilemmas encountered in the management of post-stroke hemiballismus. Conclusions. The authors propose a discussion by comparing the selected case reports with currently available data from the literature, focusing on the diagnosis and possible therapeutic strategies. These two cases underscore the importance of early recognition and tailored management of post-stroke hemiballismus, enriching the understanding of this movement disorder.

Introduction. Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a medical condition that leads to extremely high levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, increasing the risk of ischemic heart disease, including myocardial infarction. However, the link between FH and ischemic stroke is still debatable. In this case, we report a young adult female who had FH and high levels of LDL and suffered from an early-onset ischemic stroke. Case presentation. A 38-year-old female presented with acute numbness and weakness in her right limb, as well as speech difficulty. She had no history of hypertension, migraine, or diabetes, but did have a history of eyelid xanthoma. The results of the neurological examination confirmed a slightly gradual response, a mild weakness in her right limb, and a slightly reduced response to touch and pain. Laboratory tests showed very high cholesterol and LDL levels, as well as an increased CRP level. Radiological examination via a CT scan revealed lesions within the left frontotemporal region. The patient was prescribed dual antiplatelet therapy and vascular risk factor medication, and after 6 days of treatment, was discharged to go home. Conclusion. We present a case of ischemic stroke in a young patient with clinically diagnosed FH, highlighting the possibility of FH in those with early-onset cerebrovascular disease.

Background. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that targets the central nervous system (CNS). A patient’s degree of demyelination and axonal degeneration can only be roughly estimated based on clinical symptoms, neurochemical analysis or standard clinical MRI. Magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) may provide more information on MS pathology than T1- and T2-weighted MRI alone. Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) uniquely found in astrocytes in the (CNS), non-myelinating Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS), and enteric glial cells. GFAP is postulated to be a biomarker of astrocytic damage and reactive astrogliosis. Methods. A total of 60 patients with MS was categorized into three equal groups according to The Multiple Sclerosis Progression Discussion Tool (MSProDiscuss tool): RRMS, SPMS, RRMS with high risk to become SPMS and 20 healthy controls. Baseline clinical characteristics and detailed medical and neurological history were taken into consideration, as well as time of onset of MS, delay in diagnosis, initial symptoms, relapses features and behavior, EDSS and disease modifying therapy. They were subjected to DTI-MRI and blood sampling for GFAP. Results. DTI was able to differentiate between different MS phenotypes and was able to detect progression when we evaluated DTI changes in NAWM in different brain areas as low FA and high MD were associated with progression and increasing disability (p value =0.001). Serum GFAP differs significantly between patients with SPMS or patients in transition, also, it was higher in patients in transition than RRMS or control group (P value <0.001). There was a significant correlation between serum GFAP and DTI changes in NAWM as higher titres of GFAP were associated with lower FA and higher MD values in NAWM of frontal, temporal lobes, and CC body. Conclusion. Serum GFAP in addition to DTI measurable microdamage in NAWM can give us a wide scope of view about potential progression in MS pathology and related astrocytopathy.
