Introduction. The language of the folk magic tale is characterized by a wide use of artistic means, including epithets; this may be explained by the worldview, aesthetic ideas, certain concepts that developed in the course of the people’s history, as well as with folk philosophy and the specific features of the language. So far there has been no special study devoted to imaginative-expressive means of Bashkir magic tales; hence, to fill in the gap, the present article undertakes the study of epithets of the stock of artistic means characteristic of the Bashkir folk magic tale that add to the expressiveness of the language in magic tales. Thus, the study aims at identifying and analyzing epithets that characterize the main character of the magic tale from different sides; A. I. Aliyeva’s method has proved useful for this part of the research, while the examination of their structural types draws on the method elaborated by the Altai researcher M. A. Demchinova. Data and research methods. The sources for the research data were the texts of magic tales published in the Bashkir language in the two books of the scholarly collection Bashkir Folk Art; the analysis of the data was carried out with the help of textual and analytical methods. Results. The texts of the tales were examined first to identify epithets; then, the analysis focused on the epithets that characterize the main character: their appearance, marital status, social status, clothing, housing, etc. It appears that the epithets that characterize the protagonists in Bashkir magic tales have a systemic character. There is a certain sequence in the complex portrayals of personages that help to create the image of an ideal hero who may be poor but, also, kind, generous, and always ready to help those in need. The second part of the article focuses on the structural types of the items, including simple and complex epithets. Each of the type is illustrated with examples.
ON THE PRESENCE OF A SPINY CHUCKWALLA Sauromalus hispidus IN RASA ISLAND, MÉXICO
Authors: Cerdá-Ardura Adrián
Published: October 2021

Resumen   ̶   En 2006 y 2014 se encontraron dos individuos diferentes del cachorón de roca o chuckwalla espinoso (Sauromalus hispidus) en la pequeña, plana, volcánica y aislada isla Rasa, localizada en la Región de las Grandes Islas, en el Golfo de California, México. No se había registrado la existencia de esta especie en la isla antes de estas observaciones. Una prospección de campo en 2014 revela la presencia de un único individuo hembra de la especie habitando la parte sur-central de la isla, localidad llamada Valle del Tapete Verde, y en un territorio no mayor a 100 m por 100 m. El análisis de heces revela que el único alimento consumido por el animal es la hierba alcalina (Cressa truxilliensis) que forma alfombras discontinuas en el valle. El individuo carece de varias falanges tanto en manos como en patas, que parecen marcas intencionales por amputación. Se concluye que los dos individuos observados fueron introducidos intencionalmente por humanos a la isla.

DATOS BIOLÓGICOS: FUENTES Y CONSIDERACIONES
Authors: Espinosa Martínez Deborah Veranea
Published: October 2021

La elaboración de modelos de nicho ecológico (MNE/Ecological Niche Models) y/o modelos de distribución de especies (MDE/Species Distribution Models) requieren de diferentes fuentes de información para poder hacer la inferencia de la distribución de las especies en un espacio geográfico y ecológico interactuante (Ríos-Muñoz & Espinosa-Martínez, 2019; Peterson et al., 2011).  La información biológica está representada por los sitios geográficos donde las especies han sido registradas (datos de ocurrencia) y por lo tanto, bajo la perspectiva de los MNE/MDE, representan los sitios donde existen las condiciones ambientalmente viables (tanto físicas como ecológicas) para que las especies puedan mantenerse a largo plazo (Pulliam, 2000). Por esta razón, es necesario considerar diferentes aspectos referentes a la calidad de la información que representan los datos de ocurrencia de las especies y hacer énfasis en algunas consideraciones que deben tenerse con este tipo de datos. Esta es la segunda entrega de la serie de editoriales que están enfocadas a este proceso.

Authors: Pereira Gisela , Elgue Ernesto , Maneyro Raúl
Published: October 2021

We present a list of amphibian species from the protected area Barra de la Laguna de Rocha (BLR), Uruguay. Fifteen monthly three-day field trips were performed between September 2011 and March 2013. During each field trip, active searches of individuals and auditive samplings were performed at seven selected sites. We recorded 19 species of amphibians belonging to five families: Bufonidae (4 especies), Hylidae (5), Leptodactylidae (7), Microhylidae (1) y Odontophrynidae (2). Comparing these data with historical records (obtained from cientific collections and literature), eight species represented new records for the study site. The species richness in the area represents 39.6% of the total richness recorded for Uruguay. We highlight the presence of Melanophryniscus montevidensis (Philippi 1902), a locally and globally threatened species. Information on BLR's amphibian species composition could help in the implementation of the management plan for this conservation unit, as well as to stimulate future studies in the area.

Authors: Corado Garcia Valerie Andrea
Published: October 2021

El objetivo del presente estudio fue brindar información actualizada sobre las poblaciones de Crocodylus moreletii en el departamento de Petén, Guatemala. Los muestreos se realizaron durante la época lluviosa del año 2013 en 10 cuerpos de agua, categorizados en sistemas acuáticos abiertos (ríos) y sistemas acuáticos cerrados (lagos y lagunas). Se avistaron un total de 301 individuos, con una Tasa de Encuentro (TE) de 1.11 cocodrilos/km en sistemas acuáticos abiertos y 0.7 cocodrilos/km en sistemas acuáticos cerrados. Sin embargo, las TE de C. moreletii en Guatemala son bajas en comparación con las de México y Belice, probablemente como consecuencia de las fuertes amenazas antropogénicas. Por esto se recomienda un monitoreo constante de las poblaciones silvestres, así como un programa de trabajo comunitario con las poblaciones humanas de la zona, con el propósito de promover la conservación de la especie desde la correcta coexistencia entre cocodrilos y humanos.

BIOTIC ASSESSMENT INDEX BASED ON ANURAN SPECIES TO EVALUATE THE BIOTIC INTEGRITY OF THE FLOODED SAVANNAS ECOSYSTEM FROM PAUTO RIVER BASIN (CASANARE-COLOMBIA)
Authors: Sierra Teddy Angarita
Published: October 2021

Currently, huge environmental impacts such as diversity loss, landscape fragmentation and pollution have been modifying the dynamics of the flooded savannas ecosystems from Pauto River basin in Colombia. Hereby, I have developed a practical management tool to support decision makers and stakeholders in assessing the state of biotic integrity within an ecosystem based on anuran species composition that inhabit this ecosystem. The IBIA shown be sensitive to native vegetation transformation which is correlated with anuran composition. Also, the index provided a clear indication regarding the biological integrity as well as environmental quality of the areas in which the IBIA was utilized. However, the IBIA requires medium and long term application and monitoring within different landscape mosaics present in the flooded savannas from the Orinoquia region for its calibration.

BATRACHOCHYTRIUM DENDROBATIDIS OCCURRENCE IN DEAD AMPHIBIANS OF CENTRAL MEXICO: A REPORT OF Ambystoma altamirani AND Lithobates montezumae.
Authors: Parra Olea Gabriela
Published: October 2021

Chytridiomycosis, caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) and B. salamandrivorans (Bsal), is an infectious disease of amphibians linked to mass amphibian die-offs worldwide. In this study, we sampled four dead and dying individuals of Ambystoma altamirani and Lithobates montezumae to detect the presence of Bd and Bsal. By real-time PCR (qPCR) and histopathology methods, we found the presence of Bd and the absence of Bsal in all individuals sampled. Our study indicates that chytridiomycosis may act as a threat for these species and highlight that future surveys are urgently needed to evaluate the Bd infection on populations of A. altamirani and L. montezumae.

Authors: Nuñez Yamila-Irupé
Published: October 2021

En Argentina, la propuesta de una Educación Intercultural Bilingüe (EIB) surge en 1999 como un enfoque flexible y abierto, dirigido a atender las necesidades de aprendizaje de las poblaciones indígenas, sus intereses y expectativas. No obstante, la EIB se implementó de manera dispar tanto en el tiempo como en la modalidad, con considerables variaciones según la provincia y la población originaria a la que estaba destinada. A partir de las experiencias educativas y laborales de un auxiliar docente indígena (ADI) mbya-guaraní de la Provincia de Misiones (Argentina), este artículo tiene como propósito presentar cómo se llevó a cabo el proceso de incorporación de la población guaraní de Misiones en la educación formal de la sociedad dominante y las implicancias tanto individuales como comunitarias de ello.

Published: October 2021

Due to the complexity of the structure of the tooth periodontium, regeneration of the full tooth attachment is not a trivial task. There is also a gap in models that can represent human tooth attachment in vitro and in vivo. The aim of this study was to develop a bilayered in vitro construct that simulated the tooth periodontal ligament and attached alveolar bone, for the purpose of tissue regeneration and investigation of physiological and orthodontic loading. Two types of materials were used to develop this construct: sol-gel 60S10Mg derived scaffold, representing the hard tissue component of the periodontium, and commercially available Geistlich Bio-Gide® collagen membrane, representing the soft tissue component of the tooth attachment. Each scaffold was dynamically seeded with human periodontal ligament cells (HPDLCs). Scaffolds were either cultured separately, or combined in a bilayered construct, for 2 weeks. Characterisation of the individual scaffolds and the bilayered constructs included biological characterisation (cell viability, scanning electron microscopy to confirm cell attachment, gene expression of periodontium regeneration markers), and mechanical characterisation of scaffolds and constructs. HPDLCs enjoyed a biocompatible 3-dimensional environment within the bilayered construct components. There was no drop in cellular gene expression in the bilayered construct, compared to the separate scaffolds.

Development of Platooning Technology with Road Condition Monitoring
Authors: A Srinivaas
Published: October 2021

Abstract: In this paper, we present a complete platooning system using a time-delay algorithm. The platooning is achieved by measuring the driver inputs from the lead vehicle and sending these inputs to the trail vehicle with a time-delay so that the trail vehicle can exactly mimic the motion of the lead vehicle. This system also does a road condition monitor as an add-on benefit which will help in assisting the driver of the trail vehicle/vehicle which takes the same path. The function of this monitoring system is to analyse the road surface using a lead vehicle and acquire sensor data, this acquired sensor data helps in assisting drivers who take the same track. The combination of both this platooning method and road condition monitoring system could potentially reduce the current risk of utilising this semi-automated driving system. Index terms: Platooning, Semi-automated driving, Road condition monitoring, Time-delay algorithm.

They provide an advanced encroachment of the complex physics of downhole parameters, which directly add to their modeling ability compared to the traditional empirical and analytical methods. In this study, the development of a feed-forward neural network is presented. The purpose of the development is to predict the possible problems in case of a drilling operation, during running in and pulling out of the hole (RIH & POOH), based on the data acquired during the drilling of the hole.
EFFICIENCY MODEL FOR THE PROLIFERATION OF SECONDARY MARKET SUPPLY CHAIN – WITH REFERENCE TO THE INDIAN GARMENT CLUSTER
Authors: Suganya G. , Selvakumar Joshua
Published: October 2021

The growth of secondary market in retail garment trade has been a major boost to economic growth in developing nations. This paper highlights the importance of effective forward and reverse supply chain the garment sector as driver for this booming secondary market. A conclusive research technique has been adapted to study the supply chain practices followed in the garment business those in the primary and secondary market. Structural equation modelling is used to validate and test the proposed model for supply chain performance. Cluster sampling method was incorporated. Owners of garment manufacturing firms in and around Coimbatore, Tirupur, Salem, Bargur and Bengaluru region would form the respondent group. A structured questionnaire was given to them to understand their supply chain practices, supply chain flow velocity and flow efficiency and its impact on their business performance. The firms operating under uncertain circumstances in the secondary supply line have adopted practices which lead to appropriate velocity and efficient flow of money, material and information which has been proved through the testing of the model. The velocity and efficiency in the supply line has improved the performance thereby ensuring a more sustainable business for the firm operating in the secondary markets. This study has contributed in understanding the various dimensions of best supply chain practices and its effect on the flow velocity and flow efficiency of the money, material, and information in the secondary market garment supply chain. An assessment of the results of the study has opened a window to the operations of the secondary garment supply chain line in the Indian cloth market which have been more or less camouflaged under the primary market operations. The outcome of the research also shows that these secondary market players have evolved their own strategies to sustain in volatile and uncertain circumstances. These strategies have proved to be very effective in minimizing wastage and increasing profitability of the manufacturing firms. The implications of this study is bound to give much needed support and leverage to the frail and underperforming secondary garment cluster which is a major contributor of Gross Domestic Product and employment ratio.

Private companies use it to shred confidential private documents or other sensitive documents into small strips or rubble. Thus, these machines help secure information effectively and waste to the environment. The article offers an alternative to the design and calculation of a shredder model. In addition, the options for optimizing the cutting blade and evaluating the strength of machine parts are also discussed to ensure the reasonable of the model. The analysis results are carried out with CATIA software. The results can serve as a prerequisite for an optimal model of the shredder that will go into series production in the future.
The impact of Huddles on a multidisciplinary healthcare teams’ work engagement, teamwork, and job satisfaction: a systematic review
Authors: Rowan Brendan , Anjara Sabrina , Brún Aoife De , MacDonald Steve , Kearns Emma , Marnane Michael , McAuliffe Eilish
Published: October 2021

Job satisfaction and retention of healthcare staff remains an ongoing
issue in many health systems. Huddles have been endorsed as a mechanism
to improve patient safety by improving teamwork, collaboration, and
communication in teams. This study synthesizes the literature to
investigate the impact of huddles on job satisfaction, teamwork, and
work engagement in multidisciplinary healthcare teams. Five academic
databases were searched to conduct a systematic review of peer-reviewed
literature published from January 2000 – January 2020. Articles were
included if they (1) featured a daily huddle, were conducted in a
healthcare setting, and involved a multidisciplinary team and (2)
measured variables including job satisfaction, work engagement, or
teamwork. Results were reported in accordance with the Systematic
Synthesis Without Meta-analysis (SWiM) and Preferred Reporting Items for
Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. We identified
445 articles of which 12 met the eligibility criteria and are included
in this review. All 12 studies found a predominantly positive impact on
teamwork and job satisfaction. None of the studies discussed or reported
evidence of the impact of huddles on work engagement. This review
highlights the value of a daily multidisciplinary healthcare team huddle
in improving job satisfaction and teamwork for the healthcare staff
involved. However, there is a dearth of high-quality, peer-reviewed
evidence regarding the direct impact of huddles on job satisfaction,
teamwork and in particular on work engagement. Further research –
particularly controlled studies on adoption, implementation, and
outcomes for healthcare team culture – is needed to further assess this
intervention.
Flow characteristics around midchannel islands in lowland rivers
Authors: Heidari Naghmeh , Yagci Oral , Aksel Murat
Published: October 2021

Midchannel islands (MCIs) are influential instream geomorphic units
generally emerge in lowland rivers. Despite their significant
ecomorphological services in the river ecosystem, the flow structures
around these self-forming riparian landforms are not fully understood
yet. Understanding the flow pattern around these formations enables
practitioners to produce cost-effective, sustainable, and eco-friendly
river management projects/strategies. From this motivation, the
secondary flow pattern around MCIs was analyzed employing RANS based
numerical model. Flow around the simplified bodies were simulated to
give a more precise analysis regarding flow-island interactions. Once
the numerical validation process was completed for the cylinder using an
experimental dataset, the validated model was implemented for islands
(streamlined island, vertically sloped island (VSI), and realistically
sloped island (RSI)). The simulations revealed these findings: 1) The
RSI acted like a streamlined object and produced weaker lee-wake
vortices with a longer recovery distance. 2) The RSI gained a better
streamlined form near the bed than near the water surface due to
enhanced elongation. 3) This situation generated highly variable
coherent flow structures along the depth behind the MCI. 4) Due to the
three-dimensionality of the RSI, the generated large-scale vortices
propagated asymmetrically towards sides of the channel rather than
remaining around the centerline.

‘Covid-19 and Me’. A Serendipitous Teaching and Learning Opportunity in a 1st Year Undergraduate Medical Anthropology Course
Authors: Russell Andrew , Johnson Lucy , Tupper Emily , Keegan Alice-Amber , Akhter Halima , Mullard Jordan
Published: October 2021

‘Covid-19 and Me’ was an affective learning blog post exercise assigned to 1st year undergraduate students taking a medical anthropology module at the start of academic year 2020-21.  We describe the way in which a collective analysis of the accounts was undertaken and how these were presented and discussed in a set of online and face-to-face seminars. We discuss whether Covid-19 was indeed a ‘portal’ in Arundhati Roy’s use of the term, arguing that it was the written reflection and collective anthropological analysis of their accounts, rather than the virus itself, that enabled students to ‘imagine the world anew’.

Authors: Ekin Nevbahar , Uyanik Osman
Published: October 2021

Anisotropy is expressed as the direction-dependent change of material
properties and it is a very important parameter to the correct determination
of the concrete quality. For the aim of determining the concrete anisotropy,
geophysical measurements in the study were carried out on the reinforced
concrete samples with different strengths, before concrete strengths were
determined from Uniaxial Compressive Strength test. Since the propagation
direction of concrete pores and saturation type of it is important
parameters in affecting the concrete anisotropy, prepared samples were cured
as oven-dried, water-saturated, and dried in outside. Thus, the effects of
curing conditions on the anisotropy of reinforced concrete were investigated
by geophysical measurements. For this purpose, ultrasonic P and S wave
measurements were made on two opposite surfaces of cubic samples with
different reinforcement diameters. In addition, a total of 8 resistivity
measurements were performed by taking two diagonal measurements on each
surface in except of reinforced surfaces of the sample. The velocity and
resistivity anisotropies of samples were determined by using the anisotropy
relations given in the literature. As a result, it is determined that while
reinforcement diameter has no distinctive effect on anisotropy, curing
conditions are especially very effective on resistivity anisotropy.

In this study, basic statistical tools viz., measure of central tendency, dispersion, skewness, correlation and ANOVA tests were applied to analyze the marine capture production data of different groups like Pelagic, Demersal, Crustaceans and Molluscs collected from Marine Products Exports Development Authority, Cochin for the period from 1985 to 2011 pertaining to three costal states of India such as West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala. Each group of fish was considered as a treatment for the chosen time series period. Descriptive statistics revealed the elevation of production levels of different groups for states studied. Molluscs production from Andhra Pradesh did not vary much between the years having low standard deviation (918.46) while pelagic fish production varied highly in Kerala having standard deviation (86818.71). In the case of crustaceans, West Bengal had high coefficient of variance (100) and Kerala had low coefficient of variance (19.50) for demersal group. Various kinds of skewed distribution could be observed between groups in all three states. Marine fish productions of different groups from the states of West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh had good correlation except with Kerala where even negative production was observed especially in crustacean production. ANOVA also endorsed that significant production level among various fish groups could be observed in all the states. Similarly, the fish production of every group obtained from the states of West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh differed significantly with Kerala despite no difference in various fish production between the states of West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh could be found.

The aim of this study was to know the relation between the grain yield and its components in order to identify the most important attributes in grain yield prediction which would serve as a criterion for the selection of genotypes growing under semi-arid conditions. Fifteen genotypes were studied composed of 11 advanced lines, 03 local landraces and 01 introduced genotype used as controls. Analysis of variance, simple linear correlation multiple linear regression, stepwise multiple linear regression, path analysis, principal component analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis were used to evaluate six traits including grain yield, plant height, days to heading, number of grains spike-1, number of spikes m-2 and thousand kernels weight. Analysis of variance showed that genotype effect was significant for the majority of traits studied (p=0.001), advanced line G10 was shown to be most performing (4.723 t ha-1). Simple linear regression revealed that the number of grains spike-1, number of spikes m-2 and thousand kernels weight contributed significantly in grain yield changes (R2=43, 17%). Path analysis showed that the number of grains spike-1, number of spikes m-2 and thousand kernels weight had a direct and significant effect on grain yield. Principal component analysis showed that thousand kernels weight and negative days to heading were most important factors traits in grain yield. According to these results number of grains spike-1 and thousand kernels weight were crucial for the majority of static analysis.

A 51-year-old female with a past medical history of poorly controlled diabetes mellitus presented to the emergency department with signs of emphysematous cystitis and pyelonephritis with associated Enterococcus faecalis bacteremia and Candida Glabrata (C.Glabrata) fungemia. She was treated with micafungin and amoxicillin with improvement in her symptoms. During her course she underwent repeat imaging which showed improvement in her cystitis and no obstruction in her bladder. She was discharged on home IV micafungin. She returned to the emergency department the next day with acute urinary obstruction and was found to have a completely obstructing mucus ball in her bladder. This was removed cystoscopically and surgical cultures grew C. glabrata. She was successfully treated with intra-vesicular amphotericin B and was discharged.
