Climate Change Impact Evaluation on Hydro-Meteorological Variables across a Semi-Arid Middle River Basin in India
Authors: Sharma Ankur , Khare Ruchi , Choudhary Mahendra Kumar
Published: May 2023

To understand how semi-arid regions can respond to future climatic
changes, it is crucial to understand how they often behave unpredictably
regarding water resources. Middle Tapi Basin, an agricultural watershed
in India’s central region, was the area of this study, where the SWAT
model with a combination of SWATCUP software and the SUFI-2 approach was
successfully implemented. This research examined how climate change will
affect the basin’s water availability over the following century from
2010 to 2100. Statistically downscaled future projected data for
rainfall and temperature for five different CMIP5 models (BNU-ESM,
CCCma-CanESM, CNRM-CM5, MPI-ESM-LR, and MPI-ESM-MR) were used for two
different RCP scenarios, RCP 4.5 or R1 and RCP 8.5 or R2, and were used.
The model performed well for the baseline scenario according to the
model performance criteria, ensuring accuracy and future predictability.
A monthly analysis of several water balance variables for the baseline
and future scenarios similarly revealed a rise in maximum temperature of
5.2% and 9.5% for R1 and R2, respectively, at the end of the century.
The contribution of monsoonal rainfall and streamflow during the
baseline period was also 89.3% and 90.6%, but for R1 these values tend
to decline to 75.2%, and 57.8% and for R2 scenarios 70.8% and 54.7%,
respectively. The study shows that less monsoonal rainfall contribution
and more extreme rainfall events elevate the basin’s overall water
availability. The rise in global temperature results in an increase in
evapotranspiration and revaporization at the root zone and thus
decreasing the percentage change in surface runoff and groundwater flow
in future scenarios. Flow duration curves for all the GCMs and both RCPs
gradually increase concerning their corresponding historical values for
future periods, indicating increasing water availability in the basin
during the close, mid, and distant future scenario.
Kontinencián innen, műsphincteren túl
Authors: Molnár Ágnes , Kenyeres Balázs , Pytel Ákos
Published: May 2023

Bevezetés: A súlyos férfi terheléses inkontinencia a radikális prostatectomia után kialakult leggyakoribb szövődmény, sebészi kezelésében „gold standard” a művi záróizom-beültetés. A készüléket dr. Brantley Scott fejlesztette ki és ültette be először 1972-ben, majd az évtizedek során számos fejlesztésen ment keresztül. A ma is használt formája 1982-ben került forgalomba AMS 800 néven, amely azóta több, mint 250 ezer esetben került beültetésre. Az irodalmi adatok alapján a leggyakoribb szövődmény magának az eszköznek a meghibásodása, uroinfekció, húgycsőlézió, illetve hibás méretválasztás. Ezekben az esetekben a műsphincter cseréje, illetve eltávolítása szükséges. A relatíve magas szövődményráta ellenére is a súlyos esetekben elsőként választandó műtéti terápiás megoldás, mivel a betegek 79%-ánál a kontinencia jelentős javulása érhető el. Betegek és módszerek: Munkacsoportunk által 2010 és 2022 között 21 betegnél került beültetésre AMS 800 műsphincter. Összefoglalónk célja az volt, hogy az általunk végzett beavatkozások szövődményeit összehasonlítsuk az irodalmi adatokkal. Eredmények: 21 beteg nyomon követését végeztük, 16 esetben radikális prostatectomia, míg 5 esetben transurethralis prosztatareszekció után történt AMS 800 beültetése. 6 beteg adjuváns irradiációban is részesült. Az esetek 9%-ában infekciós szövődményt észleltünk, emellett 9-9%-ban húgycsőatrófia, illetve húgycsőerózió került felismerésre. A készülék meghibásodását az esetek 19%-ában észleltük. Az adjuváns irradiáción átesett betegeknél a sebészei reintervenció szignifikánsan gyakrabban vált szükségessé. Következtetés: A jelentős és tartós kontinenciajavulás miatt a gyakori szövődmények ellenére a súlyos férfi terheléses inkontinencia kezelésében a műsphincter-implantáció a „gold standard” megoldás. A gyakori szövődményarány miatt ezen betegek rendszeres utánkövetése alapvető fontosságú.

Can Sclerotinia stem and root rot be managed effectively without causing environmental imbalance in soil?
Authors: Mihajlovic Milica , Rekanovic Emil , Hrustic Jovana , Grahovac Mila , Stevanovic Marija , Tanovic Brankica
Published: May 2023

Sclerotinia stem and root rot, caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is
considered to be an important soil-borne disease of over 400 plant species,
including a wide range of species important for agriculture. In vitro and in
vivo sensitivity of S. sclerotiorum to several commercial fungicides and
biofungicides was studied. The highest efficacy was achieved by boscalid
(98%) and fluopyram (80%), and the lowest by a B. subtilis-based product
(5%). The isolate was sensitive to all tested products in vitro. Considering
the tested synthetic fungicides, fluopyram exhibited the highest toxicity
(EC50=0.003 mg/l), while captan exhibited the lowest (EC50=8.94mg/l). Even
lower efficacy was achieved by tea tree oil and B. subtilis-based products.
The environmental impact of pesticides and biopesticides used for
Sclerotinia control was assessed. Modeling of predicted environmental
concentrations in soil (PECsoil), coupled with literature toxicity data,
served for assessment of pesticides soil risks. A high long-term risk for
earthworms was revealed for captan and thiophanate-methyl. Based on both
efficacy and risk assessment results, fluopyram was found to have the best
properties of all tested conventional pesticides, while tea tree oil exerted
better performance than the Bacillus product. Further investigation of
combined use of conventional and biopesticides might reveal new perspectives
regarding effective Sclerotinia control, while simultaneously reducing
negative environmental impact.

The article studies seven heating seasons’ data of heat consumption of heating in 24-storey residential apartment building in St. Petersburg with ventilated façade, office and commercial spaces on the ground floor. It is established that heat consumption for heating depends on the year passed in operation of building since completion. During the first three years increased heat consumption is observed due to drying of walls of the building, which must be taken into account in a design of the building’s heating and maintenance systems. It is concluded that in a period of no less than three years since completion, operated building should be tested to confirm values of required specific energy heat consumption for heating in the heating season.

An experiment was conducted to compare the estrus induction response, estrus pattern, endometrial regeneration and pregnancy rates following treatment with CIDR plus PGF2 α between normally calved (NC) and retained fetal membranes (RFM) affected water buffaloes. A total of 32 water buffaloes including 16 treated for RFM and 16 NC were selected and divided into 4 groups as I and II, and III and IV respectively. Buffaloes of group I and III were dewormed with Albendazole followed by the administration of mineral mixture in feed for 15 days. Buffaloes of all the groups were treated with CIDR intravaginally for 9 days and they received PGF2 α at 24 hours prior to CIDR withdrawal. After CIDR removal, the buffaloes of all the groups were artificially inseminated during induced estrus. Those buffaloes returned to estrus following breeding at induced estrus, were artificially inseminated twice at an interval of 24 hours. The estrus response following CIDR withdrawal was 100%. The RFM affected buffaloes had significantly longer interval to onset of estrus and shorter duration of estrus than NC buffaloes. More pronounced intensity of estrus following CIDR treatment was observed in NC buffaloes than in RFM affected buffaloes. The mean pregnancy rates obtained in NC and RFM affected buffaloes were 81.25% and 50%. Complete loss of epithelial layer, degenerative changes of endometrium and atrophic changes in the endometrial glands were observed in RFM affected buffaloes before estrus induction. After treatment, RFM affected buffaloes showed clear regeneration of endometrium and its glandular acini. It is concluded that estrus induction using CIDR plus PGF2 α might help to augment the fertility in NC and RFM affected buffaloes at field level.

The aim of the research was to determine the age-related hematological and biochemical parameters in Croatian white goats in a traditional Mediterranean production system. The 36 lactating Croatian white goats were divided into three groups with 12 goats each, according to age: group I (1-2 years old), group II (3-5 years) and group III (>5 years). The mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (334 g/L) and lymphocytes (73.71%), as well as the concentration of iron (Fe 25.17 μmol/L) in the blood were higher, while the concentration of urea (3.86 mmol/L) was lower in group I compared to group III. The results of the present study are the first published blood analysis (hematological and biochemical parameters) for the Croatian white goat breed, and can be useful for understanding the metabolism and health status of this breed of goats, which helps in their conservation, promotion and breeding improvement.
Animal welfare in relation to human welfare and sustainability – a review paper
Authors:   Department of Veterinary Medicine and St. Catharine’s College, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom, Broom Donald M.
Published: May 2023

What should we change in the future? As a consequence of the one health, one welfare and one biology concepts, for most of our decisions we should be less human-centred if we want our species and other species to survive. Humans are less special than many people think. People consider that we have moral obligations to the animals that we use and to the sustainability of systems. A system or procedure is sustainable if it is acceptable now and if its expected future effects are acceptable, in particular in relation to resource availability, the consequences of functioning and morality of action. Consumers may refuse to buy unacceptable products and pressurise retail companies and governments to ensure that they are not sold. Poor welfare of people, poor welfare of other animals, genetic modification, or harmful environmental effects may make systems unsustainable. Most of the public now think of farm and companion animals as sentient beings and have concerns about their welfare. There are many components of sustainability and all should be evaluated and scored. Examples of attempts to do this are life cycle analysis and evaluation of externalities for agricultural or other products. Some topics considered include: straw use; which animals to keep as pets; stray dogs; free-roaming cats; feedlots; silvopastoral systems; free-range cattle; preserving land for hunting; land-sparing or landsharing; zoos and conservation; and cell-culture of meat.

The extensive impacts of climate change on the ecology and the environment have made it one of the biggest challenges being faced by the humanity today. Apart from the temporal scale, the climate patterns also vary on the spatial scale due to the different spatial features and the latitudinal location. This necessitates investigating the changing climate patterns over the different locales to formulate a holistic climate change adaptation and mitigation strategy. Therefore, this study was conducted to briefly investigate the annual and seasonal climate trends over the major climatic zones of Pakistan during the period 1990-2022 using the MK test and Sen’s slope estimator method. The results obtained from the study showed an annual mean temperature rise of about 0.1 to 1.0 °C over the Greater Himalayas and sub-Montane region, and about 0.15 to 1.2 °C over the central, southern, and the coastal parts of the country, while a declining trend was found over the Western Highlands during the study period. Seasonally, the spring season was found to be the warmest among all seasons in the country. For the summer season, a declining trend was found over the Greater Himalayas and Western Highlands, while warming increased over the other climatic zones. For the winter season, the temperature rose by about 0.1 to 1.0 °C over the Greater Himalayas and northern Balochistan, and by about 0.1 to 0.2 °C over the coastal zones. For annual precipitation, an increasing trend was found over the majority of the selected stations, whereas for the summer monsoon, a declining trend was found over the Greater Himalayas, while the other zones witnessed a significant rising trend, with the highest increment noted over the Western Highlands (100-300 mm), and about 50-150 mm in central Punjab and the lower Indus plain. For winter precipitation, the Greater Himalayas observed an upward trend (0.3-0.9 mm/year), while the southern and coastal parts of the country witnessed a declining pattern. Based on the findings, it was established that the climate patterns have varied greatly on the spatial scale over Pakistan, which necessitates the formulation of an integrated and effective climate change adaptation and mitigation strategy for the conservation of natural resources in the country.

Authors: Azizah Afina , Fauzan Muhamad Rafly , Humaedi Sahadi
Published: May 2023

Orang dengan HIV/AIDS atau yang biasa disebut dengan ODHA merupakan salah satu kelompok rentan. Hal demikian disebabkan oleh karena status positif HIV/AIDS yang melekat di dalam tubuhnya. Kondisi tersebut yang menyebabkan Orang dengan HIV/AIDS (ODHA) dalam kesehariannya dihantui dengan stigma dan diskriminasi yang diberikan oleh masyarakat. Orang dengan HIV/AIDS (ODHA) kerap kali menghabiskan hidupnya tidak hanya mendapatkan permasalahan kesehatan dirinya saja, permasalahan psikososial pun turut menyengsarakan hidupnya. Terkait dengan permasalahan tersebut, Orang dengan HIV/AIDS (ODHA) tentu tidak dapat menjalankan peran peranannya dengan baik, memenuhi kebutuhan hidupnya juga menghadapi goncangan dalam hidupnya. Tiga hal tersebut merupakan indikator dari keberfungsian sosial seorang individu dalam menjalankan kehidupannya. Ketakutan dan kekhawatiran yang berlebihan yang berasal dari masyarakat menyebabkan berbagai penolakan dari masyarakat, dengan status positif HIV/AIDS. Sehingga dapat disimpulkan Orang dengan HIV/AIDS (ODHA) tidak dapat memenuhi keberfungsian sosialnya yang disebabkan oleh karena stigma dan diskriminasi yang melekat di dirinya. Dalam hal ini penulis bertujuan untuk meneliti bagaimana upaya peningkatan keberfungsian sosial Orang dengan HIV/AIDS (ODHA).

Abstract:  The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the process of implementing classical guidance services using poster and video media. The success of this study occurs when there is an increase in the understanding of the dangers of smoking in active smokers. Counseling Guidance Action Research (PTBK) was carried out in 2 cycles using questionnaires, interviews, observations and documentation. Based on the results of study, it can be concluded that the use of video media in cycle 2 is considered more effective in providing classical guidance services than the use of poster media in cycle 1. Submission material of understanding the dangers of smoking using poster in cycle 1 received a passive participation response from students. After the students finished studying the poster information, the students looked bored, and not enthusiastic until the activity ended. That contrast with cycle 2 of providing classical guidance services using the video media, students seemed to be more actively focused on listening to videos, expressing themselves during the brainstorming session. Submission of material using video is considered more effective, because it appears a decrease in the number of students experiencing boredom. The results of the evaluation of the questionnaire on the understanding of the dangers of smoking showed that before the provision of classical guidance services, the level of students' understanding of the dangers of smoking was low (mean score of 25). After cycle 1 was run using poster media, there was an increase in understanding of the dangers of smoking to a moderate level (mean score 38). Then after the researchers ran cycle 2 the provision of classical guidance services using video media, students experienced an increase in understanding the dangers of smoking to a high level (mean 60). The use of video media is considered effective and recommended in providing classical guidance services to active smoking students at Madrasah Aliyah Miftahul Ulum.

Abstract: The strategic plan of the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia regarding the profile of Pancasila students needs to be realized by various parties on a macro and micro scale, including the role of a counselor in schools as an important part in achieving these goals. This article analyzes the role of counselors in shaping the profile of Pancasila students and their implications for students' personal resilience by using the literature study method. Counselors in schools have tasks that are closely related to the mission of character education which implies that students have the values ​​of personal resilience, namely self-confidence and adhering to principles, being independent and free from a sense of responsibility. This is in accordance with the six character profiles of Pancasila students that were formed, namely faith, fear of God Almighty and noble character; global diversity; worked together; independent; critical reasoning; and creative. In addition, the synergy of all parties is needed to anticipate the impact of non-constructive implementation for the counselor profession.

To address the limitations of traditional IACUC review of clinical research studies involving client-owned animals, the AVMA issued a policy describing the use of a veterinary clinical studies committee (VCSC), analogous to an institutional review board, as a way to ensure the adequate review and oversight of such studies. While IACUC composition, review, approval processes, and responsibilities are well established, uniform guidance for VCSCs is not readily available and not included in the guidance for IACUCs. In this manuscript we describe suggested best practices for scientific and ethical review of veterinary clinical research studies, regardless of the specific research setting. This resource complements the AVMA policy mentioned above by providing additional thoughts on aspects of VCSCs, including considerations necessary for the adequate review and oversight of clinical research studies using client-owned animals by VCSCs or IACUCs.
