North Aceh district has 12,750 ha of idle land that has the potential to be planted with rice. This unused land becomes rice paddies because it has a large enough area and contains elements needed by rice plants. PT Pupuk Iskandar Muda implemented a program to turn sandy land into fertile rice fields called AMELASIR (Amelioration of Sandy Land) with an area of 278 m2. This program is carried out by offering intensive tillage and using ameliorants. The materials added were PIM organic fertilizer, clay, manure, rice straw compost, PIM Polivit and PIM Urea. The results of this program show an increase in rice yield from year to year. In the first growing season the harvest reached 3 tons/ha, in the second growing season it reached 3.45 tons/ha, and in the third growing season the harvest reached 4.5 tons/ha. This area has a faunal biodiversity index H' 3.22 and floral biodiversity H' 2.28. The conversion of idle land into paddy fields also increased the biodiversity of several interesting fauna species, namely 12 bird species, one reptile species, two mammal species, and 20 insect species. The AMELASIR program also made the soil more fertile for some trees so that four tree species, two pole species, eight sapling species and 16 seedling species grew in the area.

Authors: Franco Fábio André , Zotarelli Filho Idiberto José
Published: May 2023

Introduction: In the aesthetic scenario after abdominoplasty, umbilicoplasty stands out, as the navel forms the central aesthetic subunit of the abdomen, and it needs to be aesthetically pleasing. Thus, neoumbilicoplasty describes the creation of a navel again. The ideal umbilical reconstruction should be reliable, reproducible, aesthetically appropriate, and associated with low morbidity, as well as single-stage. Objective: It was to present a neoumbilicoplasty that uses a part of the native umbilicus, leaving the final scar with a hexagonal aspect, to provide a more natural and easy-to-perform result. Methods: This retrospective observational study on the analysis of the neoumbilicoplasty technique selected the results of six patients who underwent an abdominoplasty. The skin where the neo-navel was placed was incised in the shape of an X, for a perfect accommodation of the flaps and sutured. It is noteworthy that this technique has already been performed in more than 2,500 patients by the plastic surgeon in the present study, and all cases were successfully performed. The presentation of the neoumbilicoplasty technique consisted of keeping a part of the native umbilicus, leaving the final scar with a hexagonal appearance, with a very low level of occurrence of hypertrophic scarring, providing a more natural and easy-to-perform result. Results: This study demonstrated the success of the procedures in maintaining a part of the native umbilicus, with a final scar in a hexagonal aspect, and practically without the occurrence of hypertrophic scar, contributing to another advance in the quality and improvement of neoumbilicoplasty and patient satisfaction. According to the systematic review supporting the present study, it was found 105 articles involving neoumbilicoplasty. A total of 32 articles were fully evaluated and 11 clinical studies were included and developed in the systematic review. These studies did not present a risk of bias that could compromise the results presented, however, there is still no ideal and standardized technique for neoumbilicoplasty in abdominoplasty. Conclusion: The neoumbilicoplasty technique of this study presented all the necessary characteristics for an aesthetically favorable umbilicus, maintaining a part of the native navel with a hexagonal scar, providing a more natural and easy-to-perform result.

Slovenské košele ako príklad vzájomného ovplyvňovania mestského a tradičného odevu
Authors: Mrázek Tomáš ,   Masarykova univerzita v Brne, Filozofická fakulta, Ústav evropské etnologie
Published: May 2023

The present study deals with the mutual influence of urban and traditional clothing on the examples of so-called Slovak shirts. The emergence of these shirts is related to the efforts to create a ‘national garment' in the second half of the 20th century, through which the Slovak intelligentsia demonstrated their political and cultural convictions and nation-building aspirations. The credit for their spread goes to the exhibition of embroidery in Martin, organised by Živena in 1887, and later to the Národopisná výstava českoslovanká in 1895. Soon after their spread among the Slovak intelligentsia, embroidered shirts embodied the clothing of nationally conscious craftsmen and peasants. This happened first in Turiec, but soon afterwards we can find embroidered shirts all over Slovakia. In the regions of Hont, Novohrad, Gemer, Myjava and Turiec, they became an organic part of men's traditional clothing. The present work will attempt to describe the process of the emergence and establishment of Slovak shirts, both in urban and rural environments. It describes the individual variants of these shirts in their specific forms in which they have been domesticated in different regions of Slovakia. This topic has received almost no attention in literature, so the study seeks to contribute to a better understanding of the history of clothing in Slovakia.
Censorship of literature in Poland under communism (1944 – 1990). Summary of research and new perspectives
Authors: Budrowska Kamila ,   University of Bialystok, Faculty of Polish Philology,   Department of Philology
Published: May 2023

In the article the author addresses the problem of censorship of literature in Poland during the communist years. The introduction describes the basic assumptions of communist censorship and emphasizes Poland’s close dependence on the USSR. The state of research on communist censorship in the former Eastern Bloc is briefly outlined in order to provide background for the discussion of the communist censorship in Poland. The methods of Polish censors are also described: preventive censorship, making two reviews, eliminating a part of the text or banning the printing of the whole text. The main part of the article details the methods of censorship in Poland by period (a chronological aspect), characterizes the banned topics (political, moral and ideological censorship) and gives examples of authors who had trouble with publishing. It also discusses the differences between censorship of Polish contemporary literature, classics and translations from foreign languages. It is argued that the existence of state control determined the peculiarity of Polish literature during the communist period. Censorship influenced the formation of the canon and restricted the development of some topics and aspects of poetics. Furthermore, state control destroyed the careers of writers and a broader potential of literature. Finally, the translations of important texts of world literature were not allowed to be printed or were very late, which resulted in the isolation of Polish literature (and readers). In the last part of the article the author presents new perspectives for further research: a transnational, postcolonial and “minority narrative” perspective.

Published: May 2023

This article describes the place of the literary genre of travelogue memoirs in the context of French literature in the 18th century. It analyzes the creation of this genre which is marked by hybridity and bears the characteristic traits of an autobiography, travelogue and memoirs. The typical case of this literary genre is a travelogue and memorialistic prose Memoirs of Turks and Tartars, written by Baron Francis de Tott, the son of a Hungarian squire and soldier who was born in France but acquired a lingustic education in Istanbul in the famous school for interpreters. As an official of the French royal court, he participated in various diplomatic and commercial missions in the Ottoman Empire. Knowing the Turkish world very well, in his text he furnishes a brilliant insight into the moslim world, which was perceived as exotic by his European coevals. The main goal of this article is to show the narrativity of this literary genre and to examine the main literary practices or techniques applied by this author who wasn‘t, by his personal itinerary, the man who wields the pen, but rather the diplomat and son of a soldier, with a light touch of adventurer as the majority of memorialistic travelogue authors in the 18th century.

Published: May 2023

The Rhesus blood group system is the second most important red blood cell antigen system after the ABO blood group system. The purpose of this study was to generate basic data on the prevalence of Rhesus D antigen among patients attending Wudil general hospital. Haemagglutination method was used to determine the presence of Rhesus D antigen using commercially available Anti-sera D. Anti-sera A and B were also used to investigate the ABO blood type. It was discovered that Rhesus D positive was the most prevalent with percentage frequency of 90.5% (181) and Rhesus D negative was the lowest with percentage frequency of 9.5% (19). It was observed that Rhesus D positive was higher in males than female (51.5% and 39.0% respectively). Rhesus D negative was also relatively higher in males than in females (6.0% and 3.5% respectively). A prevalent pattern of (B Rh-D +> O Rh-D +> A Rh-D +> AB Rh-D +> B Rh-D ->A Rh-D - > AB Rh-D - >O Rh-D -) was discovered. This study will be useful in studying the susceptibility of diseases with regards to Rhesus factor and may generate a vital information for population genetics and anthropological studies.

Authors: Gandham Nageswari R. , Mirza Shahzad , Vyawahare Chanda , Patil Rajashri , Mukhida Sahjid , Kannuri Sriram , Bhaumik Shalini
Published: May 2023

Introduction: Enterococci are one of the common organisms isolated from hospitalized patients with urinary tract infections. Guidelines recommend testing enterococcifor susceptibility to high-level gentamicin (HLG) and streptomycin. The present study was planned to determine the susceptibility of uropathogenic enterococci to high-level gentamicin in a tertiary care hospital.

Materials and Methods: Prospective observational research was carried out at a tertiary care hospital for two years on all isolated enterococci from urine specimens. Identification and antibiotic susceptibility were performed as per standard methods. All the isolated enterococci were tested for high level gentamicin ((120µg) resistance and susceptibility to other recommended antimicrobial agents by standard methods.

Results: A total of 320 uropathogenic enterococci were isolated and tested for antibiotic susceptibility. The majority of enterococci were isolated from elderly (34.06%) and admitted patients (69.06%). A total of 68.4% isolated enterococci were HLG resistant. HLG resistant enterococci were highly resistant to erythromycin (96.3%), ciprofloxacin (96.8%) and nalidixic acid (97.7%). Enterococci sensitive to HLG were significantly (p <0.05) less resistant to the other antimicrobial agents except nalidixic acid. Only 20.5% isolated Enterococci were resistant to vancomycin. All isolated enterococci were susceptible to linezolid.

Conclusion: The study demonstrated high prevalence of HLG resistant enterococci causing UTI in our hospital setting. Compared to HLG sensitive enterococci, HLG resistant enterococci were more resistant to other antimicrobial agents tested. The findings highlight the need for mandatory testing of enterococci for HLG resistance to determine effective antimicrobials for treatment.

Authors: Udovichenko Hannah , Ostapenko Svitlana , Revutska Svitlana , Zinchenko Viktoriia , Herasymenko Olha
Published: May 2023

The article presents an attempt to clarify the essence of the concept of emotional lexical items and reveals the features of their translation into Ukrainian. The means of emotiveness is rendered specifically in different languages, thus complicating the work of translators. It is proved that E. Hemingway’s book “Across the River and into the Trees'' is an interesting example of the style of the famous writer. Emotions are expressed there in different ways. The syntactic constructions used in the text are a combination of descriptions of events or thinkings of the main characters, where simple, complex and compound sentences or their combinations are used, and dialogues characterized by the use of simple sentences, sometimes imperative ones. Descriptions are characterized by the use of completely neutral vocabulary, which, however, has a significant connotation. The translation of the book, performed by K. Sukhenko and N. Tarasenko is considered to be quite successful. The translators managed to preserve the style of the writer. Moreover, they preserved and rendered the emotionality of the work, using appropriate translation techniques, which was not easy given the significant differences in the means of expressing emotiveness.

Public Street Lighting (PSL) is one of the complementary road buildings used to illuminate the road. Solar Public Street Lighting (SPSL) is used in several places in Indonesia. Based on the background above, the objectives of this study are (1) to obtain the results of technical analysis of SPSL, (2) to obtain the results of economic analysis of SPSL development using investment schemes. The research was conducted in Manokwari Regency, West Papua. The research data were obtained from the results of measurements on solar panels to solar charge controllers and measurements from solar charge controllers to batteries in sunny, cloudy or rainy weather conditions from 08:00 WIT to 17:00 WIT. Economic analysis is carried out to obtain the parameters of Net Present Value (NPV), and Benefit Cost Ratio  (B/C Ratio) with discount rates of  10% and 0%. The results showed that (1) based on technical analysis SPSL in Manokwari Regency has met public street lighting standards, in accordance with  the Minister of Transportation Regulation No. 27 of 2018 concerning street lighting equipment. (2) An economic analysis shows that the development of SPSL with investment schemes is not feasible because the NPV value  < 0 with an IRR of 10%, and a B/C Ratio of < 1. The construction of SPSL is economically feasible if the calculation of 0% IRR with the price of electricity per kWh reaches a value of IDR 14,411.32 or approximately ten times the price of Non-Subsidized PLN kWh electricity which is worth IDR 1,444.70.
