Authors: KAYABAŞI Hasan , ŞİT Dede , KADİROĞLU Ali Kemal , YILMAZ Mehmet Emin
Published: June 2023

Aim: End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients are subjected to
enhanced oxidative stress (OS), and osteoporosis (OP) is an
important cause of morbidity in patients with ESRD. Although it
is controversial, in many studies made in population without
renal disease, OS is related to increased OP risk. In recent study
we aimed to investigate the association between OS and OP in
dialysis patients.
Materials and methods: Sixty two patients on maintenance
dialysis programme were included into the study. Total oxidant
status (TOS), lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH), and total
antioxidant capacity (TAC) and bone mineral density was
measured. Demographic and biochemical parameters were
recorded. Patients were divided as group 1: Hemodialysis and
group 2: Peritoneal Dialysis and compared.
Results: Twentynine of 62 patients were on HD and 33 were on
PD. In Bone mineral density BMD T–scores while there was no
statistically significant difference between two groups at femur
neck, according to lumbar spine among HD patients T score was
better then PD patients. Mean serum concentration of LOOH
was 6.07±2.91 and 5.82±2.20 µmolH2O2Eq/L, TOS was
8.89±5.89 and 7.62±3.99 µmol H2O2Eq/L, and the TAC was
1.01±0.20 and 0.93±0.16 mmolTroloxEq/L in group 1 and in
group 2 respectively. Among all patients there was a positive
correlation between TAC and T score in FN. There was no
correlation between TOS and T-scores.
Conclusion: Although enhanced OS and reduced antioxidant
capacity in dialysis patients we did not find any effect of OS on
OP. This result may be due to low OP rate in our patients and this
novel topic needs further large scale studies in dialysis population.

Hemodiyaliz, kronik böbrek hastalığının tedavisinde sık
uygulanan bir tedavi yöntemidir. Diyaliz tedavisindeki tıbbi
ilerlemeler, hastaların uzun yıllar tedavi edilmesine olanak sağlasa
da komorbid hastalıkların gelişmesini ve diyaliz tedavisinden
kaynaklı semptomların görülmesini önleyememektedir.
Hemodiyaliz tedavisi alan hastalar fiziksel semptomlar yaşadıkları
gibi ekonomik, sosyal ve psikolojik sorunlarla da
karşılaşabilmektedirler. Bu sorunlarından en önemlileri psikolojik
olanlardır. Çünkü psikolojik sorunlar günlük yaşamda derin
değişikliklere yol açabilmekte, depresyon ve anksiyeteye neden
olmaktadır. Hemodiyaliz tedavisi alan hastalar, başta depresyon
ve anksiyete olmak üzere çoklu duygusal ve psikolojik
bozukluklardan etkilenebilmektedirler. Hemodiyaliz tedavisi
hastaların çoğunda kısıtlılığa yol açarak günlük aktivitelerini
yerine getirmelerinde sınırlılıklar oluşturmaktadır. Bu durum da
stres, kaygı, anksiyete ve depresyona neden olmaktadır. Bu
semptomlar hastaların yaşam kalitelerini azaltarak, daha uzun süre
hastanede yatışa, sağlık bakım maliyetlerinde artışa ve erken
mortaliteye sebep olmaktadır. Hemodiyaliz hastalarında semptom
yönetiminde kullanılan farmakolojik yöntemlerin yanı sıra
nonfarmakolojik tedavi yöntemleri de kullanılmaktadır.
Nonfarmakolojik tedavi yöntemleri hastaların depresyon ve
anksiyete düzeylerini azaltmakta ve yaşam kalitelerinin artmasına
destek olmaktadır. Hemodiyaliz tedavisi alan hastaların depresyon
ve anksiyete yönetiminde nonfarmakolojik tedavi yöntemlerinin
uygulanması, etkinliğinin değerlendirilmesi ve bu konuda hem
hastaların hem de sağlık personelinin cesaretlendirilerek
bilgilendirilmesi ve farkındalığının arttırılması gerekmektedir. Bu
derlemede, hemodiyaliz hastalarında görülen depresyon ve
anksiyete yönetiminde nonfarmakolojik yöntemlerle ilgili bilimsel
veriler incelenerek, elde edilen sonuçlar doğrultusunda önerilerde
bulunulacaktır.

Published: June 2023

Research of the frequency of increased ketone bodies in cows during the transition period three weeks before calving and three weeks after calving should determine the tendency of the Holstein breed to ketosis. It is also important to investigate the relationship between changes in blood biochemical parameters and the development and treatment of ketosis. The purpose of the study was to determine the effectiveness of using a probiotic strain of bacteria in subclinical ketosis in cows during drying off and after calving. The following methods were used: testing for determining the level of beta-ketones in the blood of cows; biochemical method of blood testing; clinical method; statistical method. A study of cows in the drying off group showed that the level of β-ketones ranged from 0.2 to 1.0 mmol/L. Application efficiency of Bacillus Pumilus L. A 56 in a concentration of 1×109 , CFU/g at a dose of 30 g per animal was determined to be 100%. In the study of metabolic changes in the body of cows after calving patients with ketosis, the content of total protein, albumins globulins of the enzyme aspartate aminotransferase, and urea at the beginning of the study was increased and went beyond the maximum permissible limits of the reference level. After seven days of using the probiotic, the content of ketone bodies and biochemical parameters decreased to normal. It was proved that at the end of the study, the activity of alanine aminotransferase increased, the level of potassium, vitamins A and E increased. Thus, it was determined that the enzyme alanine aminotransferase is one of the metabolites, an increase in the level of which indicates the accumulation of lipids in the liver. In addition, the content of Ca, P, and vitamin D decreased during treatment, which indicates the risk of hypocationemia. In the group of cows after calving, the incidence of ketosis was 27%. The therapeutic efficacy of a probiotic of 35 g per animal in the postcalving distribution group was 73%. The practical value of the study lies in the prevention of subclinical ketosis in cows in deep drying off and after calving, reducing the cost of treating concomitant diseases, and culling animals

An important sector of the Ukrainian economy is agriculture, which is based on the fertility of agricultural land, in particular, the land of the western region of Ukraine. Analysis of the structure, fertility of agricultural land, and its monetary valuation can provide insight into its productivity and potential for agricultural development. The purpose of the study is to analyse the structure and fertility indicators of agricultural land in the west of Ukraine, demonstrate their main characteristics, and compare land prices in the western regions of Ukraine. In the study, the materials of the land directory of Ukraine and regional reports on the state of the environment of the west of Ukraine were used, involving analysis and comparison of the state of land resources by the content of humus, mobile compounds of phosphorus and potassium, easily hydrolysed nitrogen, their material and monetary assessment. After analysing the structure of the land fund of the west of Ukraine (13125.5 thousand hectares), it was identified that agricultural land accounts for more than half of the total area (56.1%), and forests and other wooded zones – about a third of the total area (32.8%). Built-up land, open wetlands, open land without vegetation cover or with little vegetation cover, and other land account for less than 10%. Among agricultural land, the largest share is arable land, a little less is hayfields and pastures, and the least is perennial plantations and fallows. The total value of agricultural land in the western administrative regions is markedly different. The highest land value is in Khmelnytskyi and Ternopil regions (1.71 and 1.09 billion USD), and the smallest – in Ivano-Frankivsk and Zakarpattia (489.90 and 317.21 million USD). 1420223 shares were leased on the territory of western Ukraine. The largest number of them was leased in Khmelnitsky and Ternopil regions (25.2 and 20.7%), and the smallest – in Zakarpattia (1.0%). Thus, the total area of land cultivated by farmers is 330.8 thousand hectares, the largest in the Ternopil and Khmelnytskyi regions (23.3 and 22.7%). The findings of the study will contribute to the adoption of managerial decisions on conducting efficient agriculture and the preservation of soil fertility of agricultural lands in the region under study. Monetary assessment of these territories is useful for the country’s population in the context of changes in the law on the land market in Ukraine, and in the implementation of an environmentally balanced agricultural policy
Application of a TID Controller for the LFC of a Multi Area System using HGS Algorithm
Authors: Kumar Sambugari Anil , Narayana Mungara Siva Sathya , Gowd Kambali Jithendra
Published: June 2023

A Tilt Integral Derivative (TID) controller is designed in this paper for the Load Frequency Control (LFC) issue of a multi-area interconnected restructured power system. The suggested TID controller settings are fine-tuned using a novel optimization technique known as Hunger Games Search (HGS) algorithm. A multi-area interconnected power system with various generating units is used to test the performance of the proposed TID controller based on HGS. The suggested controller also takes into account system non-linearities such as Generation Rate Constraints (GRCs) and Governor Dead Band (GDB). The superiority of HGS's optimization over a range of other significant optimization techniques, such as the grey-wolf optimization algorithm, has been confirmed. The simulation results show that the proposed TID controller based on HGS improves system frequency stability significantly under a variety of load perturbation scenarios.

Published: June 2023

This study investigated the coarse aggregate grades and the use of sugarcane bagasse ash as a replacement for cement to examine their effect on concrete strength. Ten concrete mixes were prepared in two groups using a 1:2:4 mix ratio and a 0.48 water-to-binder ratio. Sugarcane bagasse ash was used in 0 and 10% dosages by weight of cement. Five grades of aggregates were used: 4.75-7, 7-10, 10-13, 13-20, and 4.75-20mm. Six 6"/12" concrete cylinders were prepared for each group and cured for 28 days to test their compressive and split tensile strengths. The results showed that bagasse ash caused a reduction in strength properties in both well- and specific-graded concrete. It was also observed that 10-13mm aggregate concrete with and without bagasse ash had more strength than the respective well-graded. Although a minimum decrease in strength was observed, a 10% dosage of sugarcane bagasse ash was optimal to save cement content in both specific and well-graded aggregate concrete. This study provides a new framework for using graded coarse aggregates and replacing cement with bagasse ash.
Enhancing the Properties of Sulfate-Resisting Cement
Authors: Kammouna Zainab
Published: June 2023

Sulfate-resisting cement is used in construction works when a sulfate attack is probable. This type of cement withstands sulfates due to its low C3A content. On the other hand, the decrease in the quantity of C3A leads to a reduction in the rate of early strength development. To overcome this problem, a hardening accelerator was added to the cement mix. To estimate the effect of the accelerator on some properties of hardened cement, compressive and flexural strength, and drying shrinkage tests were carried out. Four series of cement mortar mixes were made. The hardening accelerator was not added to the control series, while it was added to the others with three different percentages (of cement mass) of 0.5, 1, and 1.5%. The results revealed that the hardening accelerator enhances the compressive strength of all mortar ages while it slightly promotes flexural strength only at early ages. It was also observed that the hardening accelerator strongly inhibits the drying shrinkage strain.
Classification of Cognitive States using Task-Specific Connectivity Features
Authors: Jeevakala Siva Ramakrishna , Ramasangu Hariharan
Published: June 2023

Human brain activity maps are produced by functional MRI (fMRI) research that describes the average level of engagement during a specific task of various brain regions. Functional connectivity describes the interrelationship, integrated performance, and organization of these different brain regions. This study investigates functional connectivity to quantify the interactions between different brain regions engaged concurrently in a specific task. The key focus of this study was to introduce and demonstrate task-specific functional connectivity among brain regions using fMRI data and decode cognitive states by proposing a novel classifier using connectivity features. Two connectivity models were considered: a graph-based task-specific functional connectivity and a Granger causality-transfer entropy framework. Connectivity strengths obtained among brain regions were used for cognitive state classification. The parameters of the nodal and global graph analysis from the graph-based connectivity framework were considered, and the transfer entropy values of the causal connectivity model were considered as features for the cognitive state classification. The proposed model achieved an average accuracy of 95% on the StarPlus fMRI dataset and showed an improvement of 5% compared to the existing Tensor-SVD classification algorithm.
Spectrum Sharing of HAPS and Fixed Link in Millimeter Waves
Authors: Shamsan Zaid Ahmed
Published: June 2023

A High Altitude Platform System (HAPS) is an emerging technology that can potentially bring connectivity to areas that are not partially or totally covered by cellular networks. However, allocating certain frequency bands for the HAPS alongside wireless Fixed Service (FS) imposes some restrictions on operating the HAPS systems to ensure no interference occurs between the two systems (HAPS and FS). This paper presents an analytical study of the spectrum sharing between the HAPS and the FS in millimeter waves, namely in 38- and 47-GHz bands. Some potential and significant interference scenarios have been applied in order to investigate the spectrum-sharing situations in urban and suburban areas. The Carrier to Interference plus Noise Ratio (CINR) has been adopted as the main criterion to assess the performance of the HAPS. It is found that the HAPS and FS systems can simultaneously share the 38- and 47-GHz bands with some restrictions to HAPS altitude, allowable CINR, and location of the HAPS user. These restrictions differ depending on the area coverage type.

Published: June 2023

Until recently, lead-acid batteries were the go-to source for storing energy for UPS/Inverter applications. The most common types of batteries used in wind applications are Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid batteries (VLRAs). But, lead-acid batteries have drawbacks that make them risky and expensive to use in wind turbine applications. They are the element that is most likely to fail at the moment when they are most needed. It is hard enough to deploy and manage lead-acid batteries traditionally. But when VRLAs are used in remote facilities, there are some problems that increase the effort and the cost of using them. Currently, the Soweto Small Wind Turbine is incorporated with the Vertiv (Inverter) and VRLA battery type. TP 100 Vision lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries offer substantial advantages. This battery system is ideal for both UPS/Inverters and energy storage systems, offering excellent compatibility and a secure, durable lifespan. Factory testing was carried out on the installation and testing of a TP 100 Vision battery to a Vertiv-type UPS at a South African company. A variable resistive load bank was added to the UPS output in order to test and evaluate the outcome. This paper presents the factory testing results and proposes the implementation of the TP100 Vision battery to a 500W Small Wind Turbine (SWT) in Soweto, Johannesburg, South Africa.
Reliability-Constrained Optimal Scheduling of Interconnected Microgrids
Authors: Albaker Abdullah
Published: June 2023

This paper proposes a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) optimization model for the scheduling problem of the interconnected microgrid system. The proposed model is capable of efficiently minimizing the microgrids' total operating costs and improving the entire system's reliability, as it is constrained based on enhancing the interconnected microgrids' reliability. The Expected Energy Not Supplied (EENS) is considered in order to ensure minimizing the interconnected microgrids' power deficiency. Furthermore, the proposed model has the capability to solve the optimization problem considering the islanded operation of the interconnected microgrids, i.e. when disturbances occur on the upstream grid. Numerical simulations on a test system containing three interconnected microgrids are performed to evaluate the effectiveness of the model and the results demonstrate the merits and features of the reliability-constrained optimal scheduling model in minimizing the interconnected microgrids' total operating costs and enhancing the interconnected system reliability.
Relevance of the Performance of the Dipo Rite among the People of Yilo and Lower Manya Krobo in The Eastern Region of Ghana
Authors: Sewu Narh David
Published: June 2023

The Dipo rite is a traditional practice that has been deeply rooted in the culture of the people  of Yilo and Lower Manya Krobo in the Eastern Region of Ghana for many years. It is a rite of  passage that marks the transition of young girls into womanhood, and it is believed to be a  crucial part of the social and cultural fabric of the community. This paper provides a  comprehensive review of the relevance of the Dipo rite among the people of Yilo and Lower  Manya Krobo. The review is based on empirical and conceptual studies that explore the social,  cultural, and economic aspects of the rite. The studies reveal that the Dipo rite is an important  cultural practice that promotes social cohesion and fosters a sense of community among the  people. It is also associated with traditional beliefs and values that are deeply rooted in the  community's history and identity. The studies further show that the Dipo rite is an economic  activity that generates income for the community, particularly for those who provide services  and products associated with the rite. Finally, the paper proposes that the Dipo rite's relevance  can be explained through the lens of cultural ecology, which considers the relationships  between humans and their environment and how cultural practices are shaped by ecological  factors. In conclusion, this paper provides valuable insights into the relevance of the Dipo rite  among the people of Yilo and Lower Manya Krobo in the Eastern Region of Ghana and  highlights the importance of preserving this cultural practice for future generations.

A current approach to acute mediastinitis
Authors: Üçer Sengül
Published: June 2023

Acute mediastinitis is still among the major causes of high mortality despite advances in antibiotic therapies, intensive care support, and novel diagnostic techniques. Mediastinitis may develop due to esophageal perforation, by a downward spread of neck infection, or after cardiothoracic surgery. While computed tomography is the most preferred imaging technique in diagnosis, broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy and surgical debridement are the mainstay of the treatment. It is essential to combine multiple interventions, such as appropriate antimicrobial prophylaxis, minimization of contamination, elimination of preoperative nasal S. aureus carriage, and the adoption of relevant surgical techniques, to prevent particularly postoperative mediastinitis.

Objective: In this study the effects of carbonated drinks on the healing process of oral submucosa of albino wistar rats were evaluated.

Design: This study comprised of 24 adult albino wistar rats which were randomly assigned to a experimental group 1 and an experimental group 2. A circular wound of 3.0 mm was created on the buccal mucosa of each albino wistar rat at day 0. Animals in control group were fed with chow pellet and water while those in experimental group were fed with chow pellet and a commercially available carbonated drink instead of water. 6 animals from each group were sacrificed by decapitation under deep anesthesia at day 7 and 21. The tissue dissected from buccal area was serially sectioned and stained with Haematoxylin & Eosin stains. Wound site was histologically assessed for differences in the healing pattern of submucosa; inflammatory cell count and neovascularization between two groups.

Results: There was a marked difference in the healing pattern between the two groups. Animals in group-1 showed a normal healing pattern with formation of a fibrous connective tissue at the end of day-21. In the group-2, there is altered healing phenomenon at the end of the experiment with a subsequent delayed inflammatory reaction at day-21

Conclusion: These findings suggest that consumption of carbonated drinks can disrupt oral wound healing. The contents in carbonated drinks have a proinflammatory action on the soft tissue.

Authors: منال محمد صالح
Published: June 2023

أدى التفاعل بين الدين والسياسة إلى خلق نمط جديد من العمل السياسي على الساحة التركية عرف بالإسلام السياسي والذي مر بعدة مراحل من التغييرات والتحولات على اثر التطورات السياسية والاجتماعية، فوجد تيار الاسلام السياسي طريقه في الامور الاجتماعية وانتقل مع التعددية الحزبية الى مرحلة اكثر وضوحا، فقاد التيار مجموعتين الأولى تنادي بعودة الاسلام شرعا وقانونا أما المجموعة الثانية تنادي بتفسير الاسلام حسب مقتضيات العصر المتغير، على اثر ذلك زادت النقاشات الحادة حول مكانة الإسلام السياسي التركي فمع تسلم رجب طيب اردوغان السلطة وتأييده للتيار الإسلامي، إلا أن خطابه يختلف اختلافًا كبيرًا عن معلمه اربكان زعيم التيار الإسلامي التركي، اذ انه يتبنى المفاهيم الإسلامية من خلال اعتناق الديمقراطية والدفاع عن حقوق الإنسان وسيادة القانون، وهي قيم نشأت في الغرب فتم تفسير استجابته للنظام العالمي المعاصر على أنه المصدر الأساسي لنجاحه وتم تقديم توجهاته كحركة إصلاحية مؤيدة للاتحاد الأوروبي داخل الإسلام السياسي التركي، حتى أنه تم اقتراحه باعتباره علاجاً لصعود الأصولية الدينية وكنموذج يحتذي به للعالم الإسلامي.

Published: June 2023

This study aims to investigate the influence of art teacher core quality improvement on student learning motivation and education policy in Chinese universities. The study also explores the moderating roles of classroom well-being and research-derived knowledge in these relationships. Data was collected through a closed-ended questionnaire from 376 art teachers in Chinese universities using simple random sampling. The findings of the study reveal that art teacher core quality improvement has a significant impact on both student learning motivation and education policy in Chinese universities. Therefore, this study provides evidence for the importance of investing in art teacher core quality improvement to enhance student motivation and shape education policies in Chinese universities. Moreover, the study reveals that classroom well-being moderates the relationship between art teacher core quality improvement and student learning motivation. This implies that creating a positive and supportive learning environment is critical to improve students' motivation. Furthermore, the study shows that research-derived knowledge moderates the relationship between art teacher core quality improvement and education policy. This suggests that teachers who have research-derived knowledge are more likely to implement effective education policies. In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights for art teachers and policymakers to improve student learning motivation and education policy in Chinese universities. However, the study's limitations include the fact that data was collected only from art teachers, and future studies should consider collecting data from other disciplines.

Published: June 2023

Physical education and sports are important aspects of the school curriculum because they promote students' physical fitness, intellectual achievement, and general well-being. Nonetheless, the link between involvement in folk sports and these results is still being researched, particularly in rural school contexts. As a result, the purpose of this study is to look into the impact of folk sports participation on academic achievement, well-being, and physical fitness in rural school children, with an emphasis on the mediating function of student engagement and student motivation. The study surveyed 450 rural schoolchildren from three Chinese schools using a standardized questionnaire. The questionnaire assessed folk sports, academic success, well-being, fitness, student engagement, and motivation. Smartpls 4 was used to evaluate the gathered data. The study's findings show that involvement in folk sports has a strong beneficial link with academic achievement, well-being, and physical fitness among rural school pupils. The study also discovered that student interest and motivation serve as a buffer between participation in folk sports and these outcomes. Folk sports increase academic performance, well-being, and physical health by engaging and motivating students. The study's findings can help rural schoolchildren exercise, study, and stay healthy. The study found that introducing folk sports to physical education programs can improve these results, especially when kids are engaged and motivated. In rural schools, contextual and cultural factors should be considered when creating physical education programs, according to the study. These findings can inform rural school students' evidence-based treatments to improve physical activity, academic performance, and well-being.
