Published: December 2021

The study analysed consumer preference for cassava products in Akoko South local Government area of Ondo state, Nigeria. Data were collected from one hundred and ten (110) respondents with the aid of a structured questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and multiple regressions together with correlation Test were used to analyse the study data. The result revealed that the mean age of the household head was found to be 49.5 years and have a mean income of ₦26,800. The result revealed that garri is the major cassava product consumed. The result of the regression revealed that household size and income are the major factor that enhance the consumption of cassava products in the study area. The results of the Pearson Correlation showed that there is no significant relationship between income and the cassava products consumed. The major constraints faced were price of the products, taste, and household size. This research recommends that the Government, Ministries of Agriculture should provide improved technologies for production, processing and adding value to the cassava products. Scientists and bioengineers are encouraged to develop cassava varieties with less cyanide content and healthier for consumption by the old. Extension personnel should provide extensive services for actors of cassava value chain.
Does CEO Turnover Affect Stock Market Performance through Company Performance in Indonesian Companies?
Authors: Machdar Nera Marinda
Published: December 2021

This study analyzes whether CEO turnover affects stock market performance through company performance in Indonesian companies. Specifically, this study examines: (1) Does the CEO turnover affect the stock market performance? (2) Does the CEO turnover affect the company performance and (3) Does the CEO turnover affect the stock market performance through the company performance? This study does not test the CEO turnover due to death, forced resignation, voluntary departures, and age-related retirement considering that almost all companies in Indonesia are family companies. This study uses the manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange as an analysis unit with the study period during 2010-2015. The finding of this study concludes that (1) the CEO turnover has a positive effect on the stock market performance, (2) the CEO turnover has a positive effect on the company performance, and (3) the CEO turnover does not affect the stock market performance through the company performance. This study has an implication from a theoretical perspective, i.e. the CEO turnover has a positive effect on the stock market performance and the company performance. However, CEO turnover does not affect the stock market performance through company performance. Then, the company performance is not an intervening variable of the effect of the CEO turnover on the stock market performance.

Published: December 2021

This study examined the effect of Microfinance Banks on the development of Small and Medium Scale Enterprises in Nigeria. This study was specifically meant to assess the extent to which microfinance banks loans and advances, investments and deposit mobilization affect the productivity of SMEs in Nigeria. The study employed the ex-pose facto research design. Time series data were collected from the CBN statistical Bulletin and SMEDAN annual publications using the desk survey method. The data were analysed using the Vector Error Correction Mechanism. Result from the analyses revealed that Microfinance banks loans and advances and investments do not have any significant effect on SMEs’ productivity in Nigeria both in the long run and short run period. The study further reveals that microfinance banks’ deposit mobilization does not have any significant effect on SMEs’ productivity in Nigeria in the long run, however, within the short run period microfinance banks deposits mobilization has a significant effect on SMEs’ productivity. Based on these findings, it was recommended that MFBs should lighten the condition for lending and increase the duration of lending to their customers, spreading the repayment over a long period of time to assist SMEs meet their funding needs. Also, the Government and its institutions, including the Central Bank, should work in concert to promote the sector, as a means of mobilizing domestic savings, widening the financial system, promoting enterprises, creating employment and income and reducing poverty.
Not so hysterical now? Psychotherapy, menopause, and hysterectomy
Authors: Benamer Sarah
Published: December 2021

In the context of the body, the essentially female; wombs, menstrual cycles, and concurrent hormones, have seen women ascribed madness, insatiability, untrustworthiness, and danger. Female bodies have been identified in selective parts, considered in abstract, or envisaged as having overwhelming power over the mind. “Hysteria”, the problematic neurosis of uterine origin was at the heart of early psychoanalysis. This diagnosis enshrines a slippage from the physical to the fantastical, and ultimately to the denial of the lived reality of women’s and girl’s bodies.
In apparent collusion with patriarchy the neglect of some female bodily experience is perpetuated in contemporary psychoanalytic theory. Nowhere is this more evident than around menopause and hysterectomy (as experienced by either client or therapist). There has been little or no exploration of how practitioners might best support clients for whom menopause is significant, or how we might facilitate women before or after gynaecological surgery. It is as if removal and psychological loss of the same female body parts that our forebears used to so neatly differentiate, diagnose, and pathologise women are now not of note.
I am interested as to how we as psychotherapists reclaim female body narratives from this outdated theoretical paradigm to best serve clients experiencing menopause, gynaecological surgery, and mid life in the twenty-first century.

Published: December 2021

This study aims to analyze the empowerment of people who live and settle on the banks of the river in Petuk Katimpun Village, Jekan Raya District, Palangka Raya City, especially in stunting prevention efforts. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 10 key informants who were considered to have distinctive characters. The data collected were analyzed by qualitative methods. The results of this study illustrate that there is a model in empowering riverbank communities because the character of the people who live on the banks of the river has its own characteristics and plus generally are Dayak ethnicities, people who live on the banks of the river are very dependent on all the potential of the river and its surroundings, especially in the field of fisheries with the karamba method. and the fish produced are partly a source of nutrition, then also by utilizing purun plants as their alternative livelihood. Then the position of the house on stilts occupied also affects the fisheries sector they manage. On the other hand, the flood impact caused losses to the fish seeds that were developed because they came from fertilizer residue from oil palm plantations upstream.

Authors: МОСОВ Сергій , ХИЖНЯК Володимир , ЛИТОВЧЕНКО Анастасія , ЯДЧЕНКО Дмитро
Published: December 2021

У статті досліджено питання класифікації безпілотних літальних апаратів, систематизації функцій і завдань безпілотної авіації у сфері цивільного захисту України. Наголошено на низці різноманітних підходів до її загальної класифікації, в яких не враховано чинні нормативно-правові документи, а також на браку відповідних досліджень. За гіпотезу взято взаємозв’язок між функціями, завданнями та класифікацією безпілотної авіації у сфері цивільного захисту України. Мета статті полягає в обґрунтуванні пропозицій щодо адаптації нормативної класифікації безпілотної авіації в Україні, викладеної в наказі Міністерства оборони України від 08 грудня 2016 року № 661, до особливостей сфери цивільного захисту України і систематизації функцій та завдань для цієї важливої галузі. На підставі результатів аналізу джерел визначено склад основних функцій безпілотних літальних апаратів у сфері цивільного захисту, до яких належать: розвідка (спостереження, моніторинг); цілевказання; відновлення та ретрансляція зв’язку; радіаційна, хімічна та біологічна розвідки; виявлення мін (вибухонебезпечних об’єктів); пошук і рятування; гасіння пожеж; транспортування вантажів. Виконано декомпозицію кожної функції на функціональні завдання, що в сукупності надало можливість систематизувати функції та завдання безпілотної авіації у зазначеній сфері й обґрунтувати підстави для переходу до класифікації безпілотних літальних апаратів. З огляду на аналіз класифікацій безпілотних літальних апаратів військового та загального призначення українських і зарубіжних авторів зроблено висновок про їх різноманіття, а також про необхідність їх класифікації, враховуючи специфіку сфери цивільного захисту. В основу покладено нормативну класифікацію безпілотних літальних апаратів безпілотних авіаційних комплексів, що наведено в наказі Міністерства оборони України. За призначенням їх запропоновано класифікувати таким чином: для розвідки та цілевказання; для підсвічування; для відновлення та ретрансляції зв’язку; для пожежогасіння; для транспортування вантажів (засобів рятування); для протидії аматорським апаратам, для комбінованого призначення. У класифікації виявився непотрібним ІІІ клас, оскільки його положення не є характерними для сфери цивільного захисту, враховуючи характер і масштаби надзвичайних ситуацій, а також функції та завдання, що виконуються рятувальниками ДСНС під час ліквідації надзвичайних ситуацій. Запропоновано розробити Концепцію створення системи безпілотної авіації у складі ДСНС

Authors: НОВАК Сергій , НОВАК Михайло , ДРІЖД Варвара
Published: December 2021

Математичні моделі для теплофізичних властивостей реактивного вогнезахисного покриття, що спучується, які застосовано в процедурі щодо визначення цих властивостей, наведеній в EN 13381-8 і ДСТУ Б В.1.1-17, не враховують повною мірою особливості процесу теплопровідності в такому покритті в умовах вогневого впливу. Це може призводити до значних похибок у встановленні його товщини, необхідної для забезпечення нормованих класів вогнестійкості сталевих конструкцій (колон і балок). У дослідженні ставилось за мету вдосконалити процедуру (що існує) з’ясування теплофізичних властивостей такого вогнезахисного покриття шляхом застосування уточненої моделі для них. За його результатами розроблено модифіковану процедуру визначення теплофізичних властивостей реактивних покриттів, що спучуються, які призначено для вогнезахисту сталевих конструкцій, в якій вихідними даними є температури в печі і сталі для ненавантажених коротких конструкцій, отримані під час випробування за EN 13381-8 або ДСТУ Б В.1.1-17 в умовах вогневого впливу за стандартного температурного режиму. Обґрунтовано застосування в цій процедурі уточненої моделі, в якій враховано залежність коефіцієнта теплопровідності такого вогнезахисного покриття від температури, його початкової товщини і коефіцієнта поперечного перерізу сталевої конструкції. З’ясовано алгоритм розрахунку теплофізичних властивостей покриття за модифікованою процедурою. Визначено напрями подальших досліджень, які орієнтовані на оцінювання достовірності результатів, отримуваних за розробленою модифікованою процедурою

Published: December 2021

Summary. The article substantiates the relevance of an adaptive approach to creating conditions in the educational process for the practical self-realization of students, considered as the implementation of the educational and research abilities of future teacher-programmers, and the formation of professional competencies. In the modern high-tech world, when digital technologies become the environment for the existence of future specialists with new opportunities for their interactions and the desire to solve problems through IT technologies, one of the trends in the development of the education system is to improve its quality, «... includes adaptive processes». Adaptive processes in the design of educational programs are based on the formation of a digital educational space, the availability of online training, the possibility of organizing mixed training, and building individual educational activities. Adaptive approaches are considered as personification of the practical-oriented component of educational activity, development of value orientations, attitudes, as a person-oriented interaction of a teacher-student and a weak impact, which under certain conditions can give a strong resonance. Adaptive approaches are presented as a system of flexible management methods that contribute to the practical realization of the interests, abilities and educational needs of students aimed at forming the basic professional competencies of future teacher-programmers. Adaptive approaches in learning management are considered as the personalization of distance activities, as the process of managing the personal and professional development of students; a process that contributes to the desired learning outcomes; the process of using management impacts. The adaptive interaction between the teacher and the student includes pedagogical support, allows you to focus on the abilities and professional preferences of future teacher-programmers, equalize their opportunities for self-realization, self-organization, self-development and personalize the accumulation of universal and professional competencies. The article notes that the widespread use of adaptive approaches has led to a shift in emphasis in education to the achievement of a practical result in the formation of professional competencies, which are not only the result of training, but also a resource for further quality education, training specialists for independent professional activities, the ability to quickly adapt to new socio-professional challenges and a willingness to study during life.

Key words: adaptive approaches, adaptive interaction, digitalization, practical self-realization, training results, personalization, professional competencies of future teacher-programmers.

In this paper, we observe the possibility that the group \(S_{n}\times S_{m}\) acts as a flag-transitive automorphism group of a block design with point set \(\{1,\ldots ,n\}\times \{1,\ldots ,m\},4\leq n\leq m\leq 70\). We prove the equivalence of that problem to the existence of an appropriately defined smaller flag-transitive incidence structure. By developing and applying several algorithms for the construction of the latter structure, we manage to solve the existence problem for the desired designs with \(nm\) points in the given range. In the vast majority of the cases with confirmed existence, we obtain all possible structures up to isomorphism.

Authors: Winarti Endah , Abidin Zainal , Hamzah Akhmad Fauzi
Published: December 2021

Previous theoretical and empirical studies have directed partnerships as part of educational activities. However, implementation at the level of Islamic educational institutions is still less than optimum, and studies on the importance of partnerships in Islamic educational institutions are also minimal. In fact, during the current pandemic, partnerships are not the only choice activity for Islamic educational institutions to carry out but are a must for achieving educational goals. For this reason, there is a need to present an integrative literature review on partnerships in the context of Islamic educational institutions that analyzes the crucial reasons for implementing partnerships systematically by Islamic educational institutions. By first discussing what school partnerships are and who is involved in school partnerships, the results of the integrative literature review suggest three crucial reasons why Islamic Education Institutions need to develop partnerships: sustainability, good governance, and quality improvements. The development of school partnerships is urgent and strategic, not only for the sake of realizing the goals of Islamic education but also as an effort to maintain the viability of Islamic education institutions in rapid environmental changes.

Published: December 2021

Given the great energy demand to meet the needs of modern society, it is essential that new alternatives to replace fossil diesel are studied. And biodiesel is an alternative that has been gaining prominence on the world stage, mainly with the use of vegetable oils with a high lipid content, such as Pachira aquatica Aubl, also known as munguba. Given the above, the objective of this work was to extract the oil from the seeds of Pachira aquatica, evaluate the physicochemical characteristics of the oil and define the best conditions for catalytic mixing with temperature variation in the production of biodiesel from the oil obtained. Thus, the acidity index, saponification, refraction, peroxide, water content and fatty acid profile of the oil were evaluated. Fourteen treatments of biodiesel produced with different amounts of sulfuric acid and temperature were evaluated. They were analyzed for water content, specific mass, kinematic viscosity at 40 ºC, refractive index and ester content. It was found that the lipid content of Pachira aquatica seeds was 42.19% and its physical chemistry analysis showed that it can be used in the production of biofuels. There was a greater presence of saturated fatty acids, with a predominance of palmitic acid with 81.95%. Biodiesel produced from oil, on the other hand, showed higher production of esters in relation to the volume used at temperatures of 60 ºC and 0.6 mL of sulfuric acid, and that its properties showed that the plant can be a possible alternative for the production of biodiesel.

Published: December 2021

A presente pesquisa, é o resultado de um trabalho desenvolvido com alunos do 3° do Ensino Médio, que teve como objetivo o de avaliar a percepção dos educandos sobre conhecimentos estatísticos, assim como descobrir se a realização da atividade contribuiu para aprendizagem desses conteúdos. A ideia surgiu mediante a detecção da carência de práticas com esse propósito. O instrumento utilizado para analisar as contribuições da atividade, na identificação da percepção e aprendizagem de Estatística, foi um questionário e as informações obtidas foram organizadas em gráficos, para que se realizasse uma análise quanti qualitativa das informações, amparadas pela análise de conteúdo. A referida atividade, conseguiu evidenciar que uma parcela do público pesquisado, não conhecia a Estatística e desconhece a sua aplicabilidade. Outra situação também identificada, é que os alunos não veem a Estatística, reduzida apenas a conhecimentos matemáticos e que está associada, as mais diversas áreas do conhecimento, além de ser representativa a contribuição da atividade, quanto a aprendizagem sobre os conhecimentos estatísticos. A pesquisa pode proporcionar informações que podem ser utilizadas, por profissionais do ensino, e assim oferecer possíveis ações que possam atenuar as dificuldades presentes, quanto a aprendizagem de Estatística.  Assim este trabalho oferece caminhos de como realizar intervenções que envolvam conhecimentos estatísticos em diversas áreas do conhecimento, isto porque a metodologia do Arco de Maguerez é facilmente adaptada a todos os campos do saber, o que sem dúvidas pode contribuir significativamente na aprendizagem.

Authors: Carvalho Vinícius Dias de , Schwingel Paulo Adriano , Shiosaki Ricardo Kenji
Published: December 2021

School Physical Education works with a range of contents that aim to contemplate Movement Corporal Culture, among these are Struggles. Using literature in order to understand how research deals with this topic is essential for understanding its strengths and limitations. Following the integrative review method, this study’s purpose was to identify possible contributions of Struggles over integral human formation of students, into Educational Sports context. A preliminary literature search identified 192 articles published between 2015 and 2020. Studies were evaluated within three categories: Struggles into school environment, teacher formation and Educational Sport aspects. Review resulted to 6 articles according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Despite limitations around studies on area, results indicate Struggles content is recognized both in educational legislation and by researchers of this field; Physical education professionals have various difficulties for applying Struggles in their classes, mainly alleging problems in their teacher formation; and Educational Sports aspects appear in a non-convincing way, without empirical deepening, nor research applied to this specific theme. It is concluded that Struggles use is possible at school, but it requires confrontations, and Struggles contextualization inside Educational Sport principles is still vaguely explored, making it a field of possibilities for future researches.

Taking into account the high demand for professional teeth whitening in patients, as well as a significant high percentage of hyperesthesia after this medical manipulation, the urgency of solving this problem becomes obvious. Our study was carried out in 17 patients aged 20 to 35 years with complaints of hyperesthesia after professional teeth whitening with a diode laser with a wavelength of 810 nm using President Sensitive toothpaste with potassium nitrate and strontium chloride at home. All patients underwent professional oral hygiene before teeth whitening, recommended toothpaste and a brush, and received training in home care and teeth cleaning. According to our research, the toothpaste with potassium nitrate and strontium chloride has a pronounced desensitive effect and corresponds to the declared parameters. Thus, after professional whitening with a diode laser with a wavelength of 810 nm and subsequent application of toothpaste with potassium nitrate and strontium chloride, a decrease in tooth sensitivity, remineralization of hard tissues and suppression of bacterial growth were revealed. However, the selection should be individualized, taking into account all medical indications and properties of hygiene products.

The temporomandibular joint is paired, a complex formation of an ellipsoid shape, which is formed by the articular head of the lower jaw, the mandibular fossa and the articular tubercle of the temporal bone, covered with fibrous cartilage. There are two types of movements in the temporomandibular joint: translation and rotation, which implement protrusion-retrusion, right and left mediotrusion, and opening-closing. Computerized axiography is used for assessment of the mandibular movements and the patient’s skeletal parameters. This type of examination allows you to adjust the articulator for an individual function and to study the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the temporomandibular joint.

Authors: Marinich Mihail
Published: December 2021

The aim of the research was to assess the breeding value of the source material of F. rubra of the lawn direction obtained under conditions of various ecotopes of the south of the Central Russian Upland with a predominance of carbonate substrate. In total, 106 numbers of red fescue of various genetic and geological-geographical origin were evaluated in the experiment: 4 varieties and 102 breeding samples. Tests of the breeding value of the collection numbers were carried out in comparison with the zoned varieties of domestic selection (‘Veselka’, ‘Gostenka’, ‘Iskrinka’) and foreign selection (‘Gondolin’). The forms of F. rubra have been identified, approaching erect in shape, having a high shoot-forming ability, pronounced antocian color of inflorescences, whitish bloom on the leaves, which increases the overall decorative effect of lawn herbage. According to a number of important traits for breeding for seed productivity, the forms selected in natural habitats with a predominance of carbonate substrate have wide limits of variation and can serve as genetic sources of individual breeding traits for obtaining new varieties of lawn management with high seed productivity and decorativeness.
Risk Assessment of Future Antibiotic Resistance—Eliciting and Modelling Probabilistic Dependencies Between Multivariate Uncertainties of Bug-Drug Combinations
Authors: Werner Christoph , Colson Abigail , Morton Alec , Bedford Tim
Published: December 2021

The increasing impact of antibacterial resistance concerns various stakeholders, including clinicians, researchers and decision-makers in the pharmaceutical industry, and healthcare policy-makers. In particular, possible multidrug resistance of bacteria poses complex challenges for healthcare risk assessments and for pharmaceutical companies’ willingness to invest in research and development (R&D). Neglecting dependencies between uncertainties of future resistance rates can severely underestimate the systemic risk for certain bug-drug combinations. In this paper, we model the dependencies between several important bug-drug combinations’ resistance rates that are of interest for the United Kingdom probabilistically through copulas. As a commonly encountered challenge in probabilistic dependence modelling is the lack of relevant historical data to quantify a model, we present a method for eliciting dependence information from experts in a formal and structured manner. It aims at providing transparency and robustness of the elicitation results while also mitigating common cognitive fallacies of dependence assessments. Methodological robustness is of particular importance whenever elicitation results are used in complex decisions such as prioritising investments of antibiotics R&D.

Published: December 2021

Heart failure is treatable, but in the United Kingdom, the 1-, 5- and 10-year mortality rates are 24.1, 54.5 and 75.5%, respectively. The poor prognosis reflects, in part, the lack of specific, simple and affordable diagnostic techniques; the disease is often advanced by the time a diagnosis is made. Previous studies have demonstrated that certain metrics derived from pressure–velocity-based wave intensity analysis are significantly altered in the presence of impaired heart performance when averaged over groups, but to date, no study has examined the diagnostic potential of wave intensity on an individual basis, and, additionally, the pressure waveform can only be obtained accurately using invasive methods, which has inhibited clinical adoption. Here, we investigate whether a new form of wave intensity based on noninvasive measurements of arterial diameter and velocity can detect impaired heart performance in an individual. To do so, we have generated a virtual population of two-thousand elderly subjects, modelling half as healthy controls and half with an impaired stroke volume. All metrics derived from the diameter–velocity-based wave intensity waveforms in the carotid, brachial and radial arteries showed significant crossover between groups—no one metric in any artery could reliably indicate whether a subject’s stroke volume was normal or impaired. However, after applying machine learning to the metrics, we found that a support vector classifier could simultaneously achieve up to 99% recall and 95% precision. We conclude that noninvasive wave intensity analysis has significant potential to improve heart failure screening and diagnosis.

The anticancer properties of erianin have been recently discovered. However, the antitumor effect of erianin in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that erianin can hamper OSCC cells growth both in vitro and in vivo. Erianin induced obvious G2/M arrest as well as apoptosis and gasdermin E (GSDME)-dependent pyroptosis in OSCC cells. Moreover, erianin increased autophagosome formation but decreased autolysosome function. Further study indicated that erianin significantly suppressed the expression of protein-palmitoyl thioesterase 1 (PPT1) and mTOR signaling. PPT1 has been reported to be a critical regulator of cancer progression by its modulation of autophagy and mTOR signaling. According to online databases, higher expression of PPT1 has been observed in OSCC tissues and is associated with poorer patient prognosis. As overexpression of PPT1 significantly reversed erianin-induced growth inhibition in OSCC cells, we identified the importance of PPT1 reduction in erianin-induced growth suppression. With the xenograft model, we confirmed the antitumor effect of erianin in vivo. Erianin efficiently decreased the tumor sizes, together with visibly reduced expression of PPT1 and phosphorylation of mTOR in the xenograft tumor tissues. Therefore, the present study indicated that erianin may be potentially used in OSCC therapy.

Published: December 2021

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by diastolic relaxation abnormalities in its initial stages and by clinical heart failure (HF) without dyslipidemia, hypertension, and coronary artery disease in its last stages. DCM contributes to the high mortality and morbidity rates observed in diabetic populations. Diabetes is a polygenic, heritable, and complex condition that is exacerbated by environmental factors. Recent studies have demonstrated that epigenetics directly or indirectly contribute to pathogenesis. While epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNAs, have been recognized as key players in the pathogenesis of DCM, some of their impacts remain not well understood. Furthering our understanding of the roles played by epigenetics in DCM will provide novel avenues for DCM therapeutics and prevention strategies.

Published: December 2021

Cells and tissues in the human body are subjected to mechanical forces of varying degrees, such as tension or pressure. During tumorigenesis, physical factors, especially mechanical factors, are involved in tumor development. As lung tissue is influenced by movements associated with breathing, it is constantly subjected to cyclical stretching and retraction; therefore, lung cancer cells and lung cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are constantly exposed to mechanical load. Thus, to better explore the mechanisms involved in lung cancer progression, it is necessary to consider factors involved in cell mechanics, which may provide a more comprehensive analysis of tumorigenesis. The purpose of this review is: 1) to provide an overview of the anatomy and tissue characteristics of the lung and the presence of mechanical stimulation; 2) to summarize the role of mechanical stretching in the progression of lung cancer; and 3) to describe the relationship between mechanical stretching and the lung cancer microenvironment, especially CAFs.
