Historical stories about the Erzya people in Russian folklore(on the material of "Tales of the Starling and the Woodpecker"and songs "On the mountains on the Dyatlovs")
Authors: Sharonova Elena Alexandrovna , Sharonov Aleksandr Markovich
Published: April 2023

The subject of research in the article is the specificity of the reflection of historical events and persons in oral poetic works. The object of the study is the legend "About the Starling and the Woodpecker" and the song "On the Mountains on the Dyatlovs". The authors consider in detail such aspects of the topic as the artistic comprehension of the processes of development of statehood, the transformation of nationality, etc. Particular attention is paid to the consideration of contacts between neighboring peoples, influencing the formation of the historical context, in folklore works. The goals and objectives of the work determined the choice of research methods: historical and literary, descriptive, genetic, on the basis of which the analysis of the legend "About the Starling and the Woodpecker" and the song "On the Mountains on the Dyatlovs" is carried out. The scientific novelty of the study is determined for the first time by the analysis of "The Tale of the Starling and the Woodpecker" and the song "On the Mountains on the Dyatlovs" in the philosophical and sociological aspects in terms of the unification of Russians and Erzya into one people represented in them. The main conclusions were: the song and the legend unite the Russian and Erzya worlds, form a common society for them, where the co-existence of the two peoples does not have antagonism, social and moral forces directed against each other. A special contribution of the authors was the discovery that the song artistically interprets the unifying processes, idealizes them, turns them into a poetic image that is attractive to both Russians and Erzya. The unification of the Nizhny Novgorod Erzya with the Muscovite state was a mutual benefit, as the Russian Tsar also speaks of, thanking God for giving him the Erzya land. The Erzya elders also took what happened for granted, especially since it happened during their prayer to the Supreme God, who approved everything with his non-resistance.
Evaluation of the Human Capital of the Enterprise: Problems and Solutions
Authors: Zhdanov D. A.
Published: April 2023

Measuring the value of human capital (HC) of an enterprise is traditionally, on the one hand, the key task of managing the human resources potential of a business, and on the other hand, it is a difficult task that has not found its correct solution yet. In this regard, the purpose of this study was to develop an approach that allows us to rank the methods for measuring the HC of an enterprise in terms of reliability of the obtained results. To achieve this goal, a methodological approach was used, based on a comparative analysis of existing practices for measuring HC, grouping these procedures according to key features, and followed by ranking the formed groups based on parameters that determine the adequacy of the estimates obtained.

As the analysis has shown, it is advisable to use the features of the indicators used for calculation as criteria for typing existing methods for measuring HC. These characteristics included the following options for initial data: investment; current indicators; return on investment. In order to determine the methods that provide the best reliability of the obtained results, such methods were distributed on the basis of features that characterize the reliability of the primary data. As a result, we formed an approach that made it possible to rank typical methods for assessing the value of the enterprise’s HC from the standpoint of the reliability of displaying the area under study, which distinguishes this method from other existing procedures. At the end of the work, the ways to increase the HC of an enterprise are proposed, taking into account the preferences of active workers, in particular, and their attention to ensuring the wellbeing of employees by the employer.
Digital Technologies in the Agro-Industrial Complex on the Example of the Electronic Platform of Rosselkhozbank svoe-rodnoe.ru
Authors: Batorshina G. D.
Published: April 2023

The subject of the study is digital technologies in the sphere of agro-industrial complex on the example of Ecosystem “Svoe” of JSC Rosselkhozbank. The purporse of the work are: analytical assessment of the essence and function of digital technologies in the Russian agricultural industry using economic and statistical methods; identification of the problems that are an obstacle to the introduction of modern technologies; and providing practical recommendations on informing more agro-industrial companies about the resources of the “Svoe’’ ecosystem for their use in their current activities. In recent years, the digitalization processes in the industry have intensified, but not yet reached the required level for more efficient business. In addition, for the most part only large enterprises and agricultural holdings can afford the introduction of innovative products. Big business is ensuring the continuous growth of economic indicators in the industry. Small enterprises digitalization processes due to a lack of financial and human resources are slow. To assist small and medium-sized businesses, the ecosystem “Svoe” of Rosselkhozbank was launched in 2020, which is a high-quality example of the introduction of digitalization in agro-industrial complex. Finally, the conclusions are drawn in relation to the need of state support for digitalization pro­cesses in the agro-industrial sector, both through financial investments in the activities of enterprises and through reforming the educational sphere connected with training, education and retraining of industry representatives using the achievements of scientific and technological progress; participation of the state in the formation of the countryside as an attractive place to live. Some conclusions about the uneven nature of the implementation of digitalization processes at the enterprises of the industry, the need to reform the education system using innovative developments in the training of specialists for agribusiness enterprises, and the inevitability of improving rural areas to attract additional human resources to the industry are drawn. Despite the existence of the “Svoe” ecosystem of Rosselkhozbank for a short time, it is worth noting the huge benefit of the platform in solving many problems of its users.
Approaches to Accounting for the Financial Sector in Agent-Based Modeling
Authors: Ivershin A. V.
Published: April 2023

The article discusses approaches to introducing the financial sector into agent-based models, as well as various options for modeling the behavior of agents (firms and households) directly interacting with the financial system. Agent-based models can explain how some important macroeconomic phenomena can be generated by evolving networks of interactions between boundedly rational agents in economies, where the underlying rules of interaction can evolve endogenously over time. The importance of accounting for financial activity in macroeconomic models for reproducing business cycles and predicting financial crises is emphasized. Consideration of financial blocks in macroeconomic agent-based models includes an analysis of approaches to modeling the choice between household savings and consumption, making decisions about the amount of investment by private sector firms, as well as the rules for setting interest rates and regulatory limits by banks. Possibilities for improving approaches in terms of taking into account interest rates when modeling household savings are proposed, as well as long-term planning based on the calculation of discounted cash flows with an assessment of the impact of changes in output on market prices when forming firms’ investment plans.
Unity of tradition and innovation as a sustainable development factor of digital society
Authors: Chernavin Yu. A.
Published: April 2023

Against the background of many complex problems threatening the sustainable development of world civilization, the dialectic of tradition and innovation is considered as a pattern of social evolution. The specifics of its implementation are determined by specific historical conditions that allow us to distinguish three stages of development – with the dominance of tradition, the predominance of innovation, the unity of tradition and innovation. The need for such unity in a digital society is due to its characteristics of a “complex society”, a risk society, an increase in the number of social ontologies, and changes in indicators of human subjectivity. The disappearing unambiguity of cause-and-effect relationships, growing social uncertainty create the danger of going off the trajectory of sustainable and effective development, generating the need for a guideline that protects from mistakes. Centuries-old cultural experience, which appears in the modern world as a tradition, can become such a reference point. The mechanism of unity of tradition and innovation is revealed by relying on the structure of spiritual culture, which has a level character and has behavioral, ideological and genetic formations. The realization of their potential is presented as considering the requirements that have developed over thousands of years, and in the form of meanings and archetypes, often inexplicable, but encouraging certain choices and actions. In general, we are talking about the transition from one social type of thinking and activity to another, corresponding to the digital civilization and capable of ensuring the sustainable development of society and the individual.
Fraud in a digital society in the context of social change
Authors: Sergeyev A. Yu. , Shirokova O. V.
Published: April 2023

The article analyzes the problems of fraud in the modern digital society in the context of social changes caused by both the COVID-19 pandemic and the current geopolitical situation. The authors study in detail the types of financial fraud in this area. They pay special attention to the types of digital fraud: telephone fraud and IP-telephony, SMS fraud, phishing, sniffering (message interception), skimming (theft of card data), which are associated with the emergence of cryptocurrencies. The article presents the data of the authors’ sociological research conducted by the method of an online questionnaire survey (n = 765). The study showed that only 44 % of respondents are sufficiently informed about the types of fraud to protect themselves from modern internet scammers. An analysis of data on certain types of digital fraud showed that 20 % of respondents lost money due to telephone or Internet fraud, 16 % of respondents personally encountered IP telephony, and 40 % have no idea about such a type of fraud as sniffering and existing anti-virus protection against it. The research also showed the vulnerability, first of all, of the male half of the population over 40 years of age in the field of internet fraud. Therefore, public authorities, together with the media, business and other actors of Russian society, need to strengthen the policy in the field of improving the level of financial and digital literacy of the population.

Chemoresponsive liquid crystals (LCs) can be engineered to generate information-rich optical responses upon exposure to gas contaminants. We investigate the use of topological descriptors to extract information from these complex responses and with this facilitate sensor design and understand physical phenomena that govern responses. We provide a holistic view of topological descriptors using Minkowski functionals and fractal analysis and show how descriptors can be used for unsupervised (clustering, visualization) and supervised (regression, classification) machine learning (ML) tasks. Specifically, by using high-throughput, experimental data for LC films exposed to diverse contaminants, we show that topological descriptors can be used to effectively detect outliers and predict contaminant concentrations using simple ML models. Notably, these models achieve comparable accuracies to those of powerful convolutional neural networks, but with much lower computational times (from hours to seconds) and using less sophisticated computing hardware. This scalability enables high-resolution, space-time data analysis.
Chest Physiotherapy or Techniques in Cardio-pulmonary Physiotherapy?
Authors: Solomen Subin , Aaron Pravin
Published: April 2023

Not all the patients referred for chest physiotherapy require secretion removal as some patients may require management of breathlessness and others may require re-expansion of lungs. Hence cardiopulmonary physiotherapy techniques were evolved. The techniques thus evolved facilitated removal of secretions and even included techniques to improve lung volumes and capacities and techniques to reduce work of breathing. Even though breathing techniques and breathing exercises are different these terms were interchangeably used in the literature and practiced. Hence this commentary gives insight to these issues. Here the authors described in brief different techniques which are available in the literature.nbsp
Ethno-cultural component in the process of education in PRC Higher Education Institutions
Authors: Lu Baowen
Published: April 2023

In times of general turbulence in the economy, politics and international relations, the search for optimal ways of mutual understanding and respect for uniqueness in its various manifestations becomes one of the main tasks for any country. The largest population on the planet lives in China and this imposes a certain responsibility on the political leadership of the country in the process of maintaining a balance of interethnic interaction and building a harmonious society where diﬀerent ethnic groups and peoples can freely develop. The paper analyzes the works of leading scholars in the field of ethnocultural training and their vision of intercultural interaction. The paper uses theoretical methods of collecting and processing information in the context of analyzing the provisions of the ethnocultural component of the training of future professionals.Reasonable politics proceeds from an understanding of the causes and consequences of any phenomena, and in China they approach this with all thoroughness in terms of developing ethno-cultural interaction and inculcating correct behavior patterns in a multinational society. The history of ethno-cultural interaction in China has several thousand years, and this provides a wide field for research in this matter. An important factor in the gramonization of society is the instillation and formation of the necessary meanings in society. The Chinese educational system pays great attention to the ethno-cultural training of future teachers, especially those who are connected with creative areas such as music, painting, choreography, etc. The highest manifestation of these processes is the formation of competencies that will help future professionals on their path of development and influence in society. The entire education system in the PRC is aimed at the comprehensive development of the student’s personality and his awareness of his place in future activities.

This study compared the effects of complex contrast training (CCT) on measures of physical fitness in stronger compared to weaker individuals. Forty-one participants were initially recruited for relative strength assessment in the back squat. Thereafter, 26 participants were purposively assigned to either a stronger group (CCT-ST; relative strength ≥1.75; n = 12) or a weaker group (CCT-WK; relative strength <1.55; n = 14). Physical fitness tests were assessed pre- and post-six weeks of CCT training. Tests included 30-m sprint for speed, standing long jump and countermovement jump for power, and isokinetic peak torque of the knee flexors and extensors for strength. ANOVA revealed a significant effect of time for all dependent variables (all p <0.001, ɳp2 = 0.83 – 0.89 [large]). Post-hoc tests indicated significant performance improvements within-group for CCT-ST (all p <0.001, Hedge’s g = 0.27 – 0.98 [small to moderate], %Δ = 3.0 – 16.4) and CCT-WK (all p <0.001, Hedge’s g = 0.37 to 1.34 [small to large], %Δ = 3.1 – 17.4) for all dependent variables. No group-by-time interaction was found for the included variables. In conclusion, CCT intervention provided similar effects on the assessed measures of physical fitness in both stronger as well as weaker active individuals. Therefore, CCT can be an effective training strategy to improve physical fitness among active individuals irrespective of their relative strength.

Speed strength performances are heavily dependent on maximum strength. However, various strength testing methods determined inconsistent relationships between absolute and relative strength and sprint and jump performances. The aim of the study was to calculate the one tailed correlation coefficients between both the One-Repetition Maximum (1RM) and 1RM in relation to body mass (1RM/BM) in parallel squats and different jump (squat jump and countermovement jump) and sprint performances (5-, 10-, 20-, and 30-m) in youth soccer players (n= 63, 17.9±2.1 years old). Relative strength showed significantly larger correlations with jump performances (r= 0.52 to 0.58) than absolute strength (r= 0.16 to 0.26, z= -1.81 to -1.90, p= 0.029 to 0.035). However, the r values between relative strength measures and sprint performances (r= -0.32 to -0.42) were of non-statistical difference to the correlations of absolute strength measurements with sprint performances (r= -0.19 to -0.3, z= 0.349 to 1.17, p= 0.121 to 0.363). The results of this study support findings in previous literature of enhanced speed strength performances by higher levels of maximal strength in youth soccer players, with faster and more powerful athletes being able to generate larger forces against their own body weight. The data suggests that strength expressed relative to body mass might be considered as a superior predictor of speed strength performance in general.

Given sustained high vaccination coverage and enhanced surveillance for measles, Spain has been free of endemic measles transmission since 2014, achieving elimination certification from the World Health Organization in 2017. In November 2017, measles was introduced through an imported case travelling to the Valencian Community, causing an interregional outbreak. Here, we describe the outbreak using data reported to the national epidemiological surveillance network. The outbreak involved 154 cases (67 males, 87 females) notified in four regions; 148 were laboratory-confirmed and six epidemiologically linked. Most cases were adults aged 30–39 (n = 62, 40.3%) years. Sixty-two cases were hospitalised (40.3%) and 35 presented complications (22.7%). Two thirds of the cases (n = 102) were unvaccinated including 11 infants (≤ 1 year) not yet eligible for vaccination. The main route of transmission was nosocomial; at least six healthcare facilities and 41 healthcare workers and support personnel were affected. Sequencing of the viral nucleoprotein C-terminus (N450) identified genotype B3, belonging to the circulating MVs/Dublin.IRL/8.16-variant. Control measures were implemented, and the outbreak was contained in July 2018. The outbreak highlighted that raising awareness about measles and improving the vaccination coverage in under-vaccinated subgroups and personnel of healthcare facilities are key measures for prevention of future outbreaks.

A hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae SL218 (ST23-KL57), phylogenetically distinct from the classical hypervirulent SL23 (ST23-KL1) lineage, was transmitted between hospitalised patients in Denmark in 2021. The isolate carried a hybrid resistance and virulence plasmid containing bla
NDM-1 and a plasmid containing bla
OXA-48 (pOXA-48); the latter plasmid was horizontally transferred within-patient to Serratia marcescens. The convergence of drug resistance and virulence factors in single plasmids and in different lineages of K. pneumoniae is concerning and requires surveillance.
Speculation of Withdrawn White Guard Banknotes: The Omsk Incident (1920)
Authors:   Omsk State Technical University, Omsk, Russian Federation, Petin Dmitry I.
Published: April 2023

This article analyzes an incident of speculation on withdrawn White Guard banknotes that took place in Omsk in the first months of the Soviet power restoration. It is of interest both from the standpoint of the history of finance and currency and from that of the history of law and urban everyday life. Illegal actions suppressed in 1920 by the Soviet police are spiced up by the fact that the main defendants were representatives of Eastern European peoples who, for various reasons, found themselves in Omsk: the Ukrainian, the Hungarian, the German, and the Chinese. Moreover, the “Chinese track,” notorious in the Siberian economy of the era, had actually created conditions for this rare type of speculation. The study draws on unpublished documents identified by the author in an archival criminal case considered in 1920 by the People's Court of the 1st section of the Omsk uezd of the Omsk uezd bureau of justice. They are stored in the Historical Archive of the Omsk Region in the fond of above mentioned judicial body. The methodological basis of the study is anthropological and systematic approaches, as well as problem-chronological method. This theoretical corpus enables to follow the logic of developments in the region’s socio-economic sphere as fully as possible and to explain the causes of the crime, bringing them into correlation with certain people who acted in specific historical situation of the military revolutionary period. The considered episode is unique and revealing in a number of ways. It characterizes the life of the West Siberian townspeople at the final stage of the Civil War in Russia and demonstrates what sophisticated measures the population (including former prisoners of the First World War, refugees, numerous representatives of underclass) was forced to take in order to survive. The case allows us to assess the peculiarities of the work of law enforcement and justice during Soviet power restoration in Western Siberia. This publication may be of interest to a wide range of readers: specialists in Russian finance and currency, Soviet law enforcement system, population’s adaptation to social cataclysms, and Siberian everyday life during the Civil War in Russia.
Historical and Anthropological Sketch on Parish Clergy Drunkenness in the Kazan Eparchy in Mid-19th Century
Authors:   Kazan (Volga Region) Federal University, Kazan, Russian Federation, Khokhlov Alexander A.
Published: April 2023

The article covers one of the least studied issues in Russian historiography — behavioral deviations of the Orthodox parish clergy in form of alcohol abuse (drunkenness). According to the authors, addressing this significant, interesting, and, most importantly, underestimated topic, can shed light on poorly studied aspects of the daily life of various social strata of the Russian Empire; reveal their cultural and socio-psychological features, specifics of mentality and mechanisms of everyday communication; expand the existing ideas on the appearance of parish clergy in the heyday of the Synodal era. To this end, the authors turn to archival materials stored in the State Archive of the Republic of Tatarstan. These are investigatory records of the Kazan Spiritual Consistory on priests and clergy of the Kazan diocese of the mid-19th century. Many are yet to come to the attention of researchers. Drawing on these records, a deep and complex scientific problem is identified, which is also yet to be addressed full-on. The article emphasizes the anthropological aspect and attempts to analyze the attitude to the phenomenon of “drunken cleric” in rural social space: diocesan authorities, clergy, and peasants. The study cites instances of addiction of individual representatives of the clergy, thus noting a habitude contributing to moral dissonance with the mission of the church. At the same time, there was a condescending attitude of parishioners to such deviations of their shepherds. One of the possible reasons for this, according to the authors, lies in the inherent desire of peasants to ward off all external interference in the space of rural world (in church terminology, parish), to maintain its closed character and ethical system that was formed and learned in older days. However, this attitude contributed to aggravation of negative trends among the parish clergy, to its polarization; transformed it from fighter against social vices into hostage of circumstances. Further study of this array of archival files is to clarify and expand the portrayal of this side of everyday life of the clergy of late imperial period, thus contributing to objectification of current scientific ideas on the history of the Russian Orthodox Church, its place and role in the Russian society of the second half of the 19th – early 20th century.
Peasants Divorcing Adulteresses in 1863–1917: Specifics, Difficulties, Results

The article is devoted to the study of divorce cases initiated by men from the peasant class following adultery of their wives. The study is to identify specifics, common and distinctive features of peasant marriages dissolution caused by female adultery in the second half of the 19th – early 20th century in the Yaroslavl, Tver, and Tobolsk spiritual consistories. The source base is previously unknown archival materials from the State Archive of the Yaroslavl Region, State Archive of the Tver Region, and State Archive in Tobolsk. Documents stored in the state archives indicate the existence of a mandatory package of documents established by law, fees for opening a case, requirements for the evidence base, and established stages in office work. Comparative analysis of archival documents shows that women's infidelity was the most frequent reason of peasants requesting divorce in the spiritual consistories in the second half of the 19th – early 20th century. However, adultery was the most difficult to prove motive, making it almost impossible to get a divorce. Studying the papers of spiritual consistories permits to distinguish many degrees of the crime: one-time adultery, constant adultery, elopement, extramarital cohabitation, prostitution. Women’s actions were caused by resentment, beatings (on the part of husbands or mothers-in-law), or by forced marriages. The main difficulties in obtaining divorce among peasants were the same: difficulty of proving the birth of an illegitimate child and finding eyewitnesses, ignorance of the wife's place of residence. On the periphery in the Tobolsk gubernia with its large territories and lack of competent employees, the divorce action was hindered by priests’ incorrect paperwork and loss of documents in the mail. The relevance of the study is due to the current acute social problems (population decline, above all) caused by large number of family breakups. Turning to the history of divorce proceedings and methods of reconciling spouses (admonition by parish priests, mostly) can be useful for rethinking solving and preventing marital conflicts, as well as for revealing certain aspects of the history of institutions office work.

Published: April 2023

The activities of the prominent Russian organizer of science, scientist, and teacher of higher education, Lyudmila Alekseevna Verbitskaya (Bubnova), are extremely relevant. Studying of her experience allows us to form an effective work algorithm for our contemporary seeking to make a personal contribution to the development of national science and education. To conduct the study, the authors have used such methods as analysis, synthesis, generalization, comparison, as well as a number of purely historical methods: historical-systemic, comparative, retrospective. The publication is to analyze the previously unpublished documents from the archive of the Ivan Franko Lviv State University on Lyudmila Bubnova’s stay in the Lviv Children’s Labour Colony, where criminals and children of repressed Soviet citizens were kept together. Lyudmila Alekseevna Verbitskaya is a famous Russian philologist and organizer of science, the only female rector in the history of the St. Petersburg State University. Lyudmila Alekseevna began her career in Ukraine, being admitted to the Ivan Franko Lviv State University from the Lviv Children's Labor Colony, where she was kept as the daughter of an “enemy of the people.” The article is based on unique archival documents that permit to analyze the initial formation of the future philologist; among them L. A. Bubnova’s handwritten autobiography (1953), petition of the head of the department of children's colonies of the Lviv region, Major Chumakov, to the rector of the Ivan Franko Lviv State University for her admission to the faculty of philology (department of Russian philology), L. Bubnova's texts in Russian and Ukrainian written for entrance examination in the university, documentary data on her grades at entrance examination in Russian language and literature, Ukrainian language, history of the USSR, geography, and foreign language. Of interest is her personal data sheet, her academic certificate for the first year at the university with results of 8 exams and tests in the first semester and 12 tests and exams in the second semester, as well as her coursework. The authors conclude that the “Lviv period” in her life and education gave L. A. Verbitskaya (Bubnova) a launching pad for her future scientific and administrative career.

The lateralization pattern has an influence on the severity of ankle sprains
Authors: Andrzej Mioduszewski , Mikołaj Wróbel , Emilia Hammar
Published: April 2023

Study design: Descriptive study. Background: Many risk factors contributing to ankle sprains have been studied in medical literature with coordination and balance being two of the major endogenous factors described. These are influenced by lateralization – a developmental and adaptive ability determined by the asymmetrical construction of the human brain, with cross-laterality referring to mixed limb dominance. Objectives: To determine whether cross lateralization is a risk factor for the severity of ligamentous injuries in ankle sprains since no data is yet available on such correlation. Methods: Two hundred forty-four patients with acute ankle sprains (136 men and 108 women) were prospectively evaluated between April 2006 and March 2009. The mean age was 30 (ranging from 18 to 76). Clinical and ultrasonographic examinations were performed on the study subjects. Laterality was then assessed by the Coren questionnaire and the AOFAS score was calculated. Patients with syndesmotic injuries and fractures were excluded from the study. Those qualified were divided into straight and crossed groups, according to their laterality type. Results: One hundred forty-four patients displayed straight lateralization, while cross-laterality was found in 100 subjects. Patients in the crossed group experienced more multi-ligamentous injuries than those in the straight group (p = 0.02). Following trauma, a higher AOFAS score was attributed to subjects that displayed a straight lateralization pattern, in comparison to subjects presenting with crossed laterality (p = 0.04). Conclusion: Crossed lateralization is associated with higher severity of ligament injuries in ankle sprains and may be considered a risk factor for calcaneofibular ligament injuries.

Surface finishing operation is a very vital aspect of the manufacturing process and would not fully be achieved without abrasives such as emery paper. Some materials used in the production of abrasives like alumina (Al2O3), and Boron Carbide (B4C) are expensive thereby limiting their usage. This work is aimed at producing abrasive materials from snail shells, silica (SiO2), and epoxy resin while melamine formaldehyde acts as a hardener. The raw materials used were sieved according to ASTM E11-20 standard to obtain an average particle size of 400 µm. The composites were produced by varying different amounts of the epoxy resin as well as the other materials. The samples were analysed using physical, mechanical, and microstructural characterization techniques. An analysis of the results showed that as the content of the epoxy resin in the composite increased, the hardness values increased. The wear rate of the samples containing snail shell powders are higher than those containing only silica. The morphology of the samples obtained through microstructural tests revealed that the silica-based abrasive has better interfacial bonding which helped to confer strength. Therefore, silica can be used to produce abrasives with the required mechanical properties comparable to those of conventional abrasives.

Aim: The search for cheap and potent antidiabetic agent with less adverse effects and efficient glycemic control than orthodox and allopathic therapies prompted this current study. Method: Forty-two (42) adult Wistar rats of between 150-200g were procured and acclimatized for two weeks for the study. They were first grouped into six (6) of seven rats (n=7) per group. Whilst group 1 received normal water and chow ad libitum (control), groups 2-6 respectively were steptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic, untreated (diabetic control), 50mg/kg metformin treated diabetic, STZ-induced, 250mg/kg body weight of D. senegalensis ethyl acetate extract treated, STZ-induced, 250mg/kg of D. senegalensis n-hexene extract treated, and 250mg/kg bw of D. senegalensis chloroform extract treated. While using the GCMS to analyze the active ingredients of the various D. senegalensis fractionates administered, fasting blood glucose levels were checked and compared weekly for 10 weeks before and during treatments; obtaining differences in mean with the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). All test statistics were performed with the graph pad prism 8.1, setting p < 0.05 as statistically significant. Results: Study observed the highest anti-diabetic bioactivity in experimental than control animals; especially confirming the presence of major phytochemicals but Glycosides. In diabetic rats, a significant increase was observed in α-amylase and α-glucosidase activities, but with administration of chloroform, Hexane and Ethyl acetate fractions from the methanol stem bark extract at 250 mg/kg and metformin (50 mg/kg) significantly decreasing the activity of the enzyme’s ability on the pancreas, with the most potent being the ethyl acetate extract group Conclusion: D. senegalense extract proved to be a potent alpha-glucosidase inhibitor with less potency for alpha-amylase. This action could be productive in preventing DM via decrease in blood glucose uptake.

In Côte d’Ivoire, the quail breeding is confronted with the lack of food specific to the species. Thus, in the south-east of this country, an experimental study was conducted at the ISMOREL farm in the sub-prefecture of Adiaké. This study, which aims to improve the productivity of day-to-day farms, focused on the grain size of the feed. From grower (GD) and layer (LD) diets, 5 experimental diets have been manufactured. There are: LD 5 with a particle size of 5 mm, LD 3 and GD 3 with a particle size of 3 mm as well as LD 2 and GD 2 with a particle size of 2 mm. The growth parameters related to 750 two-week-old unsexed subjects weighing 49.67 ± 0.17 g on average. For egg-laying, 300 female quails were used at 6-week-old. The results showed an influence of the 2 mm grain size (LD 2 and GD 2) on parameters such as feed intake (186.96 ± 4.73 g and 153.46 ± 5.33 g), average live weight (142.37 ± 1.76 g and 155.85 ± 1.85 g), the average daily gain (4.29 ± 1.22 g/d and 4.74 ± 1.25 g/d), the age of first egg laid (49.33 ± 0.58 d and 46.33 ± 1.26 d) and egg-laying rate (67.24 ± 30.97% and 74.12 ± 34.03%). At the end of this study, it appears that the 2 mm particle size induces better growth and egg-laying performance in Japanese quail.

Background: The outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been designated by WHO as a pandemic, causing health services to be significantly disrupted and delayed globally, especially the implementation of the antenatal class. The participation of pregnant women in antenatal classes in Semarang City is only around 25% of the total number of the public health center in the Semarang city area during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021. There is need a for media innovation in the antenatal class during the pandemic so that antenatal class can still be carried out safely during the COVID-19 pandemic.Purpose: To produce an antenatal class application that can facilitate pregnant women to attend antenatal classes virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic and test the implementation effect of the application on the knowledge, attitudes, and behavior of pregnant women. Methods: This study uses the Research and Development (R&D) method, divided into five stages (Data Collection, Product Design, Design Validation, Design Revision, and Product Trial).Results: An application has been created named PiCCa (Pregnancy Class Center); the test result is feasible to use with a result of 82% and can be used as antenatal class media with a result of 4.32 (p=0.000). The implementation of the PiCCa application can increase knowledge from 12.8 to 18.13 (p=0.000), attitude from 65.36 to 92.3 (p=0.000), and behavior of pregnant women from 19.53 to 32.2 (p=0.000).Conclusion: The PiCCa application is feasible and can be used as an online media for antenatal classes during the COVID-19 pandemic, and its application has a significant effect on increasing the knowledge, attitudes, and behavior of pregnant women.

Visiones de Galicia y su historia en la obra de Rosalía de Castro
Authors: LOPEZ Cristian Javier
Published: April 2023

En este texto se tiene como objetivo reflexionar sobre la construcción identitaria de Galicia, así como la figura del emigrante y el destierro, presentes en la obra poética de Rosalía de Castro. La búsqueda por las raíces gallegas marcada por la resistencia frente a la desvalorización se encuentra expuesta, especialmente, en su obra Cantares gallegos, de 1863. Para tal reflexión, utilizamos los poemas “Adiós rios, adiós fontes”; “Airiños, airiños, aires” y “A gaita gallega”. La elección de esta producción se debe a su importancia en las letras españolas y a su contenido, que realiza una relectura del pasado retratando la historia de su gente, la emigración, la añoranza, el sentimiento de destierro y la discriminación que sufren los gallegos en España, revelando la perspectiva literaria sobre el pasado desde una mirada crítica.
