An Unsupervised Traffic Modelling Framework in IoV Using Orchestration of Road Slicing
Authors: Lanka Divya , Kandasamy Selvaradjou
Published: October 2022

Presenting better traffic management in urban scenarios has endured as a challenge to reduce the fatality rate. The model developed consolidates an evolving methodology to handle traffic on roads in an abstract way in internet of vehicles (IoV) orchestrated with unsupervised machine learning (USL) techniques. At first, the roads are sliced into segments with roadside units (RSU) that provide vehicle to everything (V2X) communication in a multi-hop manner and examine traffic in real-time. The unique nature of the proposed framework is to introduce USL into the RSU to learn about traffic patterns. The RSU upon learning the traffic patterns applies the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) to observe the variation in the traffic pattern to immediately generate warning alerts and collision forward messages to the vehicles on road. The application of USL and GMM ensures speed control of vehicles with traffic alerts, thereby deteriorating the fatality rates.

Driver drowsiness is one of the major problems that every country is facing. The ICT sector is continuously investing in the automaker industry worldwide to bring about digital transformation in existing vehicles and driving. The smart behavior of vehicles is becoming possible with the convergence of intelligent manufacturing, AI, and IoT. In this chapter, the authors are presenting a framework for efficient detection of driver's drowsiness by utilizing the power of deep learning technology. The use of convolution neural network (CNN) is explored, and the system is developed and tested using different activation functions. The proposed driver drowsiness framework is able to signify the drowsiness state of the driver and to automatically alert the driver. The accuracy of the proposed model is compared at different activation functions such as ReLu, SeLu, Sigmoidal, Tanh, and SoftPlus, and higher accuracy is achieved with ReLu as 98.21%.

Authors: H. Shaheen
Published: October 2022

Beyond the spread of the disease and efforts to treat, the coronavirus pandemic has far-reaching implications. It is crystal clear that the pandemic wreaked havoc on critical fields such as healthcare, business, and academic. In terms of academics, one direct outcome of the pandemic's spread was the decision to suspend traditional in-person classroom courses in favor of remote learning and home-based schooling through the use of computer assisted learning technologies, but these technologies confront numerous hurdles. The majority of these issues revolve around the effectiveness of these delivery modalities, as well as engagement and knowledge testing. These difficulties highlight the need for an advanced smart educational system that aids all types of learners, gives teachers a variety of smart new tools, and enables a more flexible learning environment. The internet of things, artificial intelligence and virtual reality is a blooming sector, and IoT-based devices have ushered in a revolution in electronics and information technology.

Published: October 2022

Spain is in a privileged position in the production and marketing of wine, being the world leader in terms of volume of wine exported. It is also the country where exports have grown the most since 1990, as companies have been pushed to increase their foreign exposure by the decline in domestic consumption and more recently by the financial crisis. The present research contributes to the literature on the international wine trade, given that, to the authors' knowledge, no previous research has so recently addressed the export intensity of Spanish wines by autonomous communities, as well as the geographical destinations of these exports. The results show a clear heterogeneity in value and volume between the different Spanish territories when it comes to marketing wine, revealing two competitive models in the Spanish wine industry: cost leadership (focused on volume) and differentiation (focused on quality).

Published: October 2022

Introduction: Delusional jealousy has received limited attention in the psychiatric literature. Information on prevalence and demographical trends of delusional jealousy are essential in the design of effective control measures are sparse and fragmentary. Present study was aimed to describe case numbers and socio-demographic characteristics of patients with delusional jealousy reported to selected mental health services in Sri Lanka. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from May to August 2017, in three public hospitals and one private psychiatric clinic. Data were collected using a general information sheet and a structured interview schedule. Results: Fifty (65.78%) out of 76 reported cases during the period were new cases. The mean (SD) age of the patients was 44.15 (11.58) years. Selected sample consisted of 55 patients (male=39, 70.9 %). Thirty-seven (67.2%) were married and lived with their spouses. The majority were Buddhists (N=50, 90.9%) and Sinhalese (N=54, 98.2%). Fifty (90.9%) had children together with the partner. Twenty-three (41.68%) were not Ordinary Level qualified and 36 (66.7%) patients were employed. Conclusions: The majority of patients were married, middle aged males, from lower educational and economic backgrounds. Follow-up consultations were less. Most patients were functional despite the condition. The majority of the patients lived together with their partners and children in the same household which might precipitate a risk of violence towards the partners and subjective exposure of children towards violence.

Musculoskeletal tuberculosis represents 1% of total tuberculosis cases. It affects young adults from endemic countries or immunocompromised patients, and may lead to severe functional impairment. We report a case of a 27-year-old male from an endemic country presenting with a 4-month history of fever, a major pectoralis abscess, and low back pain. A lumbar spine MRI revealed osteolytic lesions in multiple vertebral bodies along with a large iliopsoas abscess. Both abscesses were drained and the diagnosis was established by positive polymerase chain reaction assay for tuberculosis. The patient was initiated on anti-tuberculous treatment for 9 months. Musculoskeletal tuberculosis is rarely found in Western countries. If left intreated, it can lead to severe complications which may require surgical intervention.
Effect of adding dexmedetomidine to 0.75% ropivacaine in peribulbar block for vitreoretinal surgery
Authors: Subramanian Shalini , Bapat Medha , Braganza Sherine , Thirumalesh MB
Published: October 2022

Background and Aims:

Peribulbar anesthesia is suitable for vitreoretinal (VR) surgery. Dexmedetomidine has been used in peribulbar block (PBB) to improve akinesia and analgesia. We aimed to study the efficacy of adding dexmedetomidine to 0.75% Ropivacaine in PBB for VR surgery. The primary outcome was the requirement of block supplementation and secondary outcome was post-operative analgesic requirement.

Material and Methods:

100 adult patients undergoing VR surgery were included in this prospective randomized double-blinded controlled study. The composition of the drug used for PBB in the 3 groups was Group R (8 ml of 0.75% Ropivacaine +0.5 ml normal saline (NS)), Group D25 (8 ml of 0.75% Ropivacaine +25μg Dexmedetomidine) and Group D50 (8 ml of 0.75% Ropivacaine +50 μg Dexmedetomidine).

Results:

The groups were comparable in terms of patient demographics. The requirement for block supplementation was 16.7% in Group R (5/30), 12.5% in Group D25 (4/32) and 8.8% in group D50 (3/34) (P = 0.64).The mean time to first request for post-operative analgesia was432 ± 362 min in Group R, 572 ± 339 min in Group D25 and 614 ± 394 min for Group D50 (P = 0.26). There was significant difference in the heart rate (P = 0.047), mean arterial pressure (P = 0.012) at 30 min and sedation (RASS) score at 15, 30, 60 (P < 0.001) and 120 (P = 0.019) min between the D50 and group R. Patients undergoing buckling procedures had significantly shorter time to request for analgesia (P = 0.003).

Conclusion:

Addition of dexmedetomidine does not offer advantage over 0.75% Ropivacaine in PBB for vitrectomy. Its benefit in more painful procedures like scleral buckle needs further validation.
A cross sectional, observational study to evaluate the surgeons’ knowledge and perspective on preoperative fasting guidelines in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Southern India
Authors: Paul Pallapati Aparanjit , Joselyn Anita Shirley , Pande Priyanka Vandana , Gowri Mahasampath
Published: October 2022

Background and Aims:

The preoperative fasting orders given by the Anesthesiologists as per ASA and Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocol, are often modified by the surgeons, for practical convenience, which can end up with patients being starved for prolonged periods of time. Hence, this study was conducted among various specialty surgical colleagues, to evaluate the knowledge and their perspective regarding patients’ preoperative fasting guidelines.

Material and Methods:

A validated questionnaire was distributed to 68 surgeons belonging to various surgical specialties, which included consultants and postgraduate residents. The surgeons were grouped as surgeons operating only on children, only on adults, and on adults and children (mixed). Data were summarized using the mean (SD)/median for continuous variables and categorical data were expressed as frequency and percentage. The difference in knowledge score, among the surgeons of three groups, was analyzed using ANOVA, with Bonferroni as post hoc.

Results:

This study shows an overall decrease in knowledge (score of 6.13 ± 1.74) about preoperative fasting guidelines among surgeons. We found that the level of knowledge about preoperative fasting guidelines and complications was higher among surgeons who operate only on children (score of 7.05) as compared to surgeons operating only on adults (score 5.5) and adults and children (mixed) (score 6.1), which was statistically significant (P = 0.013). We found no difference in knowledge level based on designation and gender. All the surgeons uniformly had the perspective that patients have to be kept fasting preoperatively.

Conclusion:

Preoperative fasting orders for all surgical patients, especially for vulnerable patients such as children and geriatrics, should be administered by the anesthesiologist or surgeon who is familiar with fasting guidelines. We intend to raise the awareness of fasting guidelines of surgical colleagues by putting up placards and posters in the wards.
An audit of questions asked by participants during the informed consent process for a phase 2/3 COVID-19 vaccine regulatory study at a tertiary referral centre
Authors: Chaudhari VL , Godbole CJ , Bendkhale SR , Desai NN , Gogtay NJ , Thatte UM
Published: October 2022

Objective:

To evaluate questions asked during the informed consent process by adult participants in a COVID-19 vaccine regulatory study conducted at our center in 2020.

Methods:

After approval by the IEC, informed consent documents and consent narratives were evaluated. We collated the total number and nature of questions. We then looked at the association between education, gender, socio-economic status, employment status, the language of consent, and number of questions. Between-group comparison (female vs male, unemployed vs employed, primary school vs secondary school vs graduate vs post-graduates, upper vs upper-middle vs middle vs lower middle vs lower) for the number of questions asked was done using univariate analysis followed by multivariate regression analysis with post hoc Tukey's test. Independent variables were gender, employment status, education and socioeconomic status and the dependent variable was the number of questions asked by the participant. All analyses were done at 5% significance. Content analysis was done in addition by creating categories after evaluation and coding them.

Results:

A total of N = 129 consents from the same number of participants were evaluated. A total of N = 127/129 participants asked at least one question. Sixty-seven percent of participants asked questions related to the study procedure, followed by 44.9% of participants who asked questions related to the safety of vaccine or placebo. A total of N = 295 questions were asked by the 127 participants. In content analysis, 149/295 (50.5%) questions were on study-related procedures followed by one quarter 76/295 (25.8%) based on safety associated with Investigational Product. Very few participants [2.4%] asked about post-trial access as the regulatory trial was a placebo-controlled trial. None of the independent variables were found to be associated with the number of questions.

Conclusion:

The majority of the questions asked by the participants were about study-related procedures and vaccine safety. No association was found between any of the independent variables and the number of questions asked. However, there were differences in the demographics of the trial participants between the pandemic and pre-pandemic era.

Authors: Akhtar Muhammad Shoaib , Feng Tao
Published: October 2022

WSN have many applications in different fields like medical, military, health and agriculture, etc., due to its data sensing and gathering abilities to Base station. The main issue in wireless sensor network is energy efficiency under consideration of QOS parameter like delay and security. Many of techniques have been proposed in literature but few work on energy efficient network with QOS. Due to lack of prior research in this area of study, this research will optimize the existing result in manner of giving efficient energy mechanisms and will also provide QOS as well as reduction of delay. It is very important to calculate energy efficiency and data transmission rate in wireless sensor networks because it is widely used in every field of life, especially when we are talking about medical, military and navigation system. After identifying main issues, this research will focus on energy efficiency and delay reduction. But other factors like security and average transmission time is not fully focused.
Decomposition of a symbolic element over a countable amenable group into blocks approximating ergodic measures
Authors: Downarowicz Tomasz , Więcek Mateusz
Published: October 2022

Consider a subshift over a finite alphabet,

X\subset \Lambda^\mathbb{Z}

(or

X\subset\Lambda^{\mathbb{N}_0}

). With each finite block

B\in\Lambda^k

appearing in

X

we associate the
empirical measure
ascribing to every block

C\in\Lambda^l

the frequency of occurrences of

C

in

B

. By comparing the values ascribed to blocks

C

we define a metric on the combined space of blocks

B

and probability measures

\mu

on

X

, whose restriction to the space of measures is compatible with the weak-

\star

topology. Next, in this combined metric space we fix an open set

\mathcal{U}

containing all ergodic measures, and we say that a block

B

is “ergodic” if

B\in\mathcal{U}

. In this paper we prove the following main result: Given

\varepsilon>0

, every

x\in X

decomposes as a concatenation of blocks of bounded lengths in such a way that, after ignoring a set

M

of coordinates of upper Banach density smaller than

\varepsilon

, all blocks in the decomposition are ergodic. We also prove a finitistic version of this theorem (about decomposition of long blocks), and a version about decomposition of

x\in X

into finite blocks of unbounded lengths. The second main result concerns subshifts whose set of ergodic measures is closed. We show that, in this case, no matter how

x\in X

is partitioned into blocks (as long as their lengths are sufficiently large and bounded), excluding a set

M

of upper Banach density smaller than

\varepsilon

, all blocks in the decomposition are ergodic. The first half of the paper is concluded by examples showing, among other things, that the small set

M

, in both main theorems, cannot be avoided. The second half of the paper is devoted to generalizing the two main results described above to subshifts

X\subset\Lambda^G

with the action of a countable amenable group

G

. The role of long blocks is played by blocks whose domains are members of a Følner sequence, while the decomposition of

x\in X

into blocks (of which majority are ergodic) is obtained with the help of a congruent system of tilings.

Arts education has huge impact on our life today. Integrated art education does not stop at simply fostering specialized artists, but is becoming a holistic education that enhances emotions and character through art experiences, while serving as the foundation for this. It aims operating cultural arts education and cultural arts education spaces in the future. This study examined the concept of integrated art education and activity space elements, and it aims at using the results to search for sustainable utilization plans for the West Seoul Arts Center, which is the first cultural arts space established in Korea. The research method included case studies of foreign integrated arts education, and upon studying the regional and social environmental characteristics, as well as art experience activities per development stage in everyday life, it was possible to check integration with the local society for spacial elements according to the external environment, integration with the natural environment, reciprocal integration with life, as well as the features of variability, openness, and flexibility that are spatial elements according to the external environment. The West Seoul Arts Center for which such external and interior spatial elements apply will fulfill its role as a platform for regional hub cultural arts education space by improving friendly accessibility as an open space by establishing a citizen art gallery environment filled with the creative arts of citizens, while improving design that applies variability, openness, and flexibility with an image of an ‘empty space in nature’ considering the natural ecological environment and establishing a community activity space containing the local features.

Authors:   Korea Institute of Design Research Society, Liang Zhi Qi , Cho Taig Youn
Published: October 2022

Designers express diverse opinions on how to apply sharp shapes in buildings. Sharply-changed contour of sharp shapes is one visual primitive that can be quickly extracted by people1). As a critical part of architectural design, architectural surface boasts of some characteristics that affect brain to recognize threat of sharp contours. In this day with diversified aesthetics, aesthetics rests with audience’s visual perception and cognition of objective objects, as well as their professional knowledge, life experience, thoughts and culture. In the course of evolution, general aesthetic awareness acquired by the brain is minimally impacted by subjective factors. Under the background, this study, on neuroscience view, adopts interdisciplinary approach to explain brain’s perception mechanism to threats and selective attention mechanism by applying interdisciplinary approach. Starting with analyzing five stages of aesthetic cognition, it exposes brain’s preference for characteristics in line with survival instinct, such as “transparency” and “reflection”, in accordance with viewpoint of evolutionary aesthetics. Aesthetic preference can be triggered by both materials, and permeability of architectural shape structures. In summary, this study aims to reveal reasons of threat perception and attraction of sharp shapes, so as to determine influence of surface characteristics on cognition and aesthetic effects of sharp shapes. It is hoped to provide scientific references and proposals for applying surface characteristics in buildings with sharp shapes.

Published: October 2022

The initiative of One Belt One Road (OBOR) has economically benefited many countries in terms of export and import cargo. Malaysia is one of the countries that greatly export and import commodities business across international borders via different modes. However, this study shows that the OBOR initiative’s adaptation in Malaysia seaports is still beginning. The purpose of this study is to identify the issues faced by Malaysian seaports, to adapt the OBOR initiative, as well as to develop a new approach to overcome the obstacles that have been identified. A qualitative research approach was carried out to archive the objective of this study. A total of six maritime experts were interviewed and the results were analyzed by content analysis and coded using Nvivo 12 software. The results show that Malaysia suffers from financial instability, a lack of port capacity, and poor employee readiness. To overcome the issues, the experts proposed upgrading the port capacity, improving the port system with modern technology, and expanding the employee’s knowledge, as well as the safety and security of the port. This study proposes a novel framework to adapt maritime tourism as a new business market into OBOR strategy. This framework will overcome the current issues that Malaysian seaports have encountered. In the current digital world, the introduction of many advanced technologies known as “Smart” has great potential to progress the maritime tourism agenda into a smart maritime tourism industry to gain more benefits.
Unidroit 90th Anniversary: Forthcoming 2016 unidroit Principles of International Commercial Contracts
Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Vujicic Jovan
Published: October 2022

This paper begins with a general overview of the UNIDROIT contributions to the modernisation and harmonisation of private law during the 90 years of its existence. Special attention was paid to the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts. Welcomed from their first appearance as “a significant step towards the globalisation of legal thinking”, they represent one of the Institute’s most successful projects and one of the most important “soft-law” instruments. The paper explores the recently adopted amendments and additions to the 2010 UNIDROIT Principles particularly relevant in the context of long-term contracts. The analysis is limited to the notion of long-term contracts and supervening events. In the case of hardship, the UNIDROIT Principles, inspired by the principle favor contractus, which is one of the basic ideas that underlie them, encourage negotiation between the parties to the end of continuing the relationship rather than dissolving it. Similarly, in the case of force majeure, parties to long-term contracts may provide, in light of the duration and nature of the relationship and, possibly, large initial investments whose value would be realised only over time, the continuation, whenever feasible, of the business relationship and envisage termination only as a last resort. Although the preconditions differ from that in hardship clauses, in respect to the procedure for the solution of the problems and certain future consequences, they may be similar if not identical.

The subject of this work is comparative analysis and assessment of legal effects and legal nature of the finding of treasure trove in nine European regulations and in the Draft of Uniform Serbian Civil Code that impersonates the future Serbian law. Assessing the public or private property acquisition by finding the treasure trove, both relatively equally argumented, by observing this specific originary kind of finding, the author may come to the conclusion that the notice of the Draft is, in principle, pursuant to notices of neighbouring countries, aimed at harmonizing regulations on subregional level. Concurrently, the author accentuates how important it is that the bounty height and the cost of finding are properly determined for more optimal regulation de lege ferenda. Author also asks for the introduction of possibility of acquiring private ownership subsidiary, in the case when the state uses its abandon right.

Nis (Naissus), Nicomedia (Nicomedeia) and Byzantium (Byzantium) or the later Constantinople (Constantinoupolis) are connected not so much by centuries of Roman rule over them, by the fact that they were independent important urban centers in the Empire, but, as we can assume, on the basis of narrative and documentary sources, at the same time, had a special place in the life of one of the most important figures and rulers of the Roman Empire, the emperor who put the new religion, Christianity, on the same level with other religions in the Empire, Emperor Constantine (306-337). At important moments in his life, the emperor always returned to these cities. With this work, we tried to contribute to the study of the cities of the Roman provinces during the reign of Emperor Constantine. In his time, the Roman Empire was faced with various trials, however, Emperor Constantine remained attached to Nis, Nicomedia and Constantinople, thereby confirming that both emperors and ordinary people are attached to certain places as the cornerstones of their existencе.

Authors:   University of East Sarajevo, Faculty of Philosophy, Laković Maja , Vulić Tatjana ,   University of Niš, Faculty of Philosophy
Published: October 2022

The Great Eastern Crisis (1875-1878) is considered one of the turning points in recent Serbian history, which occurred as a result of decades of agrarian and social dissatisfaction and the desire for the national liberation of the Christian population from the Turkish authorities. In historiography, the eastern crisis encompasses a somewhat wider chronological framework, and its beginnings are related to the uprising in the village of Krekovi, near Nevesinje, on July 9, 1875. In a short time, the uprising spread to Bosnia, and then to the Macedonian, Bulgarian and Kosovo territories. Taking into account the fact that this issue has attracted a lot of attention from the European public, the subject of this paper is the reports and announcements of the foreign press about the beginning of the Great Eastern Crisis, which “Srpske Novine” published in parts or in whole during July 1875. Due to the relatively fast flow of information and the use of telegraph services, the press was, at that time, an extremely important source. Based on the offered foreign reports and announcements, which were published almost daily by “Srpske Novine”, we analyzed the first conflicts in Herzegovina, in July 1875, in order to bring closer the way in which the appearance of the uprising was interpreted on the pages of the European press.

The establishment of the Commissariat for Refugees and Emigrants greatly facilitated the lives of people who fled from terror or were forcibly evicted due to war events. Occupied Serbia, in addition to ongoing problems that tormented the local population, also encountered a large number of refugees who came from the territory of the Independent State of Croatia, from Slovenia, Macedonia, and the Kosovo-Metohija region. In Serbia, in addition to the terror carried out by the occupier, a civil war was also simmering, while the population faced various restrictions, repressions and food shortages. In such conditions, it was necessary to organize the reception of exiled Serbs and Slovenes and ensure their survival in occupied Serbia. Within the limits of its capabilities, the Commissariat helped refugees and immigrants, taking care of their reception among the local population. The meaningfulness of the actions of the newly formed organization is also visible in the resettlement of refugees, considering their occupation and education, so intellectuals are placed in cities, while peasants are placed in smaller towns and villages. The number of refugees in certain places was difficult to control, due to illegal migration to Serbia and the aspiration of refugees and resettled persons to larger cities due to better employment opportunities. When accommodating Slovenian immigrants, care was also taken to continue the children’s education and their participation in food production. In order to make it easier to get a job, retraining courses were held, while some families of Slovenians successfully started production, and with their earnings helped the refugee colonies in the town. Bearing in mind the above, the integration of Slovenian refugees among the Serbian population should be a reason for pride for the Serbian people, who welcomed unfortunate Slovenians into their homes and shared with them everything that was necessary for life in occupied Serbia.
YENİ MEDYA EKOSİSTEMİNDE ARAŞTIRMACI GAZETECİLİK VE YURTTAŞ GAZETECİLİĞİ YAKINSAMASI: ARAŞTIRMACI YURTTAŞ GAZETECİLİĞİ
Authors: YILDIZGÖRÜR Mehmet Ramazan
Published: October 2022

Bu araştırma yurttaş gazeteciliği olarak tanımlanan haber üretme ve yayma pratiğinin araştırmacı gazetecilik düzeyinde de mümkün olup olmadığını bir örnek olay üzerinden sorgulamayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmacı gazetecilik, gazetecilik türleri içinde en çok zaman ve emek gerektiren, bunun yanında çoğu zaman değindiği konular nedeniyle gerek gazetecinin kendisi gerekse çalıştığı medya adına riskler üreten bir habercilik faaliyetidir. Bundan ötürü araştırmacı gazetecilik faaliyetleri hem dünyada hem de Türkiye’de giderek azalmaktadır. Çalışmada temel alınan bir diğer nokta genel olarak insanların gazeteciliğe olan ilgi ve güveninin azalmış olmasıdır. Okur ihtiyaç duyduğu enformasyon akışını diğer kaynaklardan sağlayabildiğini düşünmektedir. Bu durum profesyonel bir meslek olarak gazeteciliğin toplumsal görev ve işlevlerinde bir gerilemeye neden olabilmektedir. Profesyonel gazetecilik mesleğine en yakın haber akışı ise yurttaş gazeteciliği olarak adlandırılan olgudan gelmektedir. Çalışmada yurttaş gazeteciliği ve araştırmacı gazetecilik literatürü üzerinden bir tartışma yürütülmektedir. Çalışmanın amacı yurttaş gazeteciliği olarak tanımlanan olgunun araştırmacı gazetecilik ile ilişkisini tartışmaktır. Çalışmada örnek olay olarak incelenen durum gazeteci olmayan bir kişinin, araştırmacı gazetecilik kapsamına girebilecek bir faaliyet yürüterek, bir olayı kamuoyunun gündemine getirmesidir. Araştırmada olay biçimsel olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Araştırmanın ortaya koyduğu en somut bulgu gazetecilerin herhangi bir nedenle kamuoyunun gündemine getirmedikleri kimi olayların mesleği gazetecilik olmayan kişilerce gündeme getirilip kamuoyu oluşturulabildiğidir. Bu örnekte görüldüğü gibi yurttaş gazeteciliği rutin haber olarak tanımlanan olayların dışına çıkarak, araştırmacı gazetecilik olarak tanımlanan habercilik pratiğinin de sınırlarına girebilmektedir.

The article will focus on written sources and folk tales about the medieval city of Syganak. Syganak, which was a city of the Oguz tribes, later passed into the jurisdiction of the Kipchak tribes. After the invasion of the Mughals led by Genghis Khan, Syganak was restored and became a religious center during the Golden Horde. After Berke Khan accepted Islam from the sages, the Yasaviya tariqa was revived in the city of Syganak. Relying on the hikmet of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi, one can see the revival of the Zhyrau oral literature of the Kazakh people on the basis of strengthening Sufi literature. In this study, based on the Sufi literature of poets and zhyrau, born in the era of Nogaili and the Kazakh Khanate, the formation of genres such as «terme», «tolgau», characteristic of oral literature, is analyzed. The development of the city of Syganak and the role of the indigenous population living in it in the spread of Islam since the adoption of Islam are mentioned, as well as the work of religious scholars from this city to convert the conquered Mughal tribes to Islam. In addition, the historical significance of the city of Syganak for the Kazakh people and its influence on the formation of culture is noted. It also emphasizes the importance of recording folk tales about the once spiritual and cultural city of Syganak, which are still preserved in the memory of the people, in light of the disappearance of legends that were passed from mouth to mouth.

This article discusses in detail effective methods and techniques for the formation of value orientations of adolescent children. Value orientations of a person are an important characteristic of a child's life, since value orientations fix the connection of children with the environment, differences in their own relationships and psyche. In addition, children, realizing their value orientations, look for their place in the classroom, reflect on the meaning and purpose of each action in society. Expressing a conscious opinion about actions in society, he formulates his attitude towards other people, the environment and himself, largely determining the direction and content of personal development. The formation of value orientations that occur intensively in children of early adolescence is an important stage for the formation of a worldview, the search for the meaning of life and the definition of their role in society. In the conditions of modern education, a set of effective methods of organizing the educational process is necessary for the formation of value orientations of adolescent children. Therefore, the authors of the article note that at the present stage of the development of pedagogical and psychological science, special attention should be paid to the peculiarities of the formation of adolescent children, including value orientations, emphasizing that classes using training exercises are an effective method of working with adolescents. Training exercises in a group under the guidance of experienced teachers-psychologists allow children to form the necessary knowledge, skills, skills, values, as well as to better understand themselves and others.

In modern education, the independent work of students is a necessary and important part of the educational process. Because it not only helps to consolidate the knowledge and skills acquired in practical courses but also contributes to the strengthening of cognitive activity. As a rule, one of the platforms for organizing independent work of students is an adaptive learning environment. The purpose of the study was to develop and implement a training course on the organization of independent work of students in an adaptive educational environment to increase the level of their cognitive activity. Research hypothesis: the level of cognitive activity of students increases when organizing independent work in an adaptive educational environment. By the purpose and hypothesis, the authors defined the objectives of the study: theoretical analysis of scientific literature, the study of the formation of cognitive activity of students, the study of the concepts of «pedagogical conditions» and «adaptive educational environment», diagnosis of the level of formation of cognitive activity of students; prepare students for independent work on the Moodle platform; analyze the results of the study. The proposed course included personalized adaptive learning. Second-year students of the specialty «Information Systems» of Aktobe Higher Polytechnic College in the course of mastering the subject «Mathematics» carry out training in this course. The statistics obtained indicate that the application of the developed training course in an adaptive personalized educational environment has a positive effect on increasing the level of cognitive activity of students. The data obtained by the authors can be used by teachers of other educational institutions in the process of forming the cognitive sphere of students.

Decades ago, people hurried to read newspapers. He was ready to count to the last penny in order to buy an interesting edition. At that time, the format and size of the newspaper were different, external beauty was not paid much attention to, it was strict, standard, gray. There were long columns and sloppy lyrics. However, the public was interested in the abundance of news on the pages of the publication. It is not easy to please the modern reader. Television, radio, computers, various CD-MD-DVD players, satellite and cable TV channels attract audiences and make periodicals uncompetitive. However, editors of newspapers and magazines tend to compete and consider different ways to meet the needs of the reader. Undoubtedly, there is room for an attractive design of the publication. The designer and layout designer of a newspaper can be compared to an architect and a builder, and the main elements of the design of a newspaper can be compared to the bricks from which a building is being built, that is, a newspaper issue. Designers and layout designers solve a complex of problems related to the plan of this construction – with the composition of numbers and bands, with the placement of materials, etc. The composition of the pages depends on the composition of the entire issue of the newspaper, which in turn is determined by the content of the published materials and their nature. In almost every newspaper, a more or less stable composition is gradually taking shape, which means the design of the pages, the main sections and headings characteristic of this publication. The article discusses some methods of layout of newspapers and magazines.

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are one of the most commonly given prescribed drug in both outpatient and inpatient settings. Hence in this present scenario, where the use of PPIs is overwhelming, the present study aims to know the rational use of PPIs in the patients of General Surgery ward of a rural tertiary care hospital. The objective of the study is to study the drug utilization and evaluation of proton pump inhibitors in surgery unit at Adichunchanagiri Hospital and Research Center (AH&RC) BG Nagara, Mandya of tertiary care teaching hospital. A Prospective and Observational study was carried out for 6 months in the surgery department. A suitably designed patient profile form was used to record all the necessary data and the collected data is subjected to suitable statistical method for analysis. In the study, out of 200 patients on PPI, 73% were females and the rest were males. Most of the patients belonged to the age group of 36-55 years. PPIs were most frequently prescribed mainly to treat gastritis and to prevent the gastric irritation caused by analgesics. Most commonly prescribed PPIs were found to be Pantoprazole through IV route and oral route. Majority of the PPIs prescribed were appropriate based on NICE guidelines. Pantoprazole was the PPI having the greatest number of interactions with other drugs in the prescription and no ADRs were reported during our study period. PPIs should be used only when there is valid documented evidence and when their use is clinically justified. Various efforts should be made to reduce the unnecessary use of PPIs to minimize drug interactions, related risk, and the health care burden of the patients.

Fish are relatively sensitive to changes in their surrounding environment including an increase in pollution. Fish health may thus reflect, and give a good indication of the health status of a specific aquatic ecosystem. Common Carp (Catla catla) is an important commercial species around the world to feed populations and is as an economic rather than an ornamental fish. Certain heavy metals are necessary for specific body functions due to their nutritional value. High concentrations of these metals can however cause a toxic effect within an organism. Copper is an essential trace metal in small concentrations for several fish metabolic functions. Essentiality of copper arises from its specific incorporation into a variety of enzymes, which play important roles in physiological processes (e.g. enzymes involved in cellular respiration, free radical defense, neurotransmitter function, connective tissue biosynthesis and other functions), as well as, into some structural proteins (WHO, 1998). Although the crucial role of copper in several enzymatic processes, this heavy metal can exert adverse toxicological effects, when present in high concentrations in water. In the present study enzyme and biochemical changes have been related to copper. It can be concluded that muscle alterations as a result of heavy metal exposition of fish may serve as a sensitive biomarker for the toxicity of sublethal concentrations of metals as well as other pollutants. However, complementary studies are necessary for a better understanding of its deleterious effects.
