The northern regions of Kazakhstan, including the Pavlodar region, are distinguished by rich and diverse nature, combining floodplain, steppe and forest landscapes. More than 500 species of wild higher plants grow in our region, and many of them can be used as food. However, the problem of using regional wild plants for food has not yet been sufficiently studied. However, plants serve not only as a direct source of food, but also as technological raw materials for processing traditional food products to obtain original taste qualities and maximum benefit. With the help of wild plants, it is possible to solve many everyday problems – both at home and in the field conditions, not only without a food store, but also without a hardware store. In addition, plants can provide for lovers of artistic creativity such an amount of decorative materials that it is impossible to find in specialized stores. The novelty of the results obtained consists in identifying the possibilities of using dozens of common wild plants of the Pavlodar region for food purposes, and some species are offered as raw materials for cooking, as well as in food processing technologies for the first time. The practical significance of the results obtained will make it possible to use the data obtained by food technologists, tourism instructors and school leaders for guides, as well as all nature lovers who want to diversify their menu with unusual products from wild plants.

Published: March 2023

This study aims to analyze halal culinary development in the digital Era based on e-commerce and ride-hailing orders. The conceptualization related to the development process needs to be explored. The method used in this research is a critical assessment of the literature review. By analyzing the patterns that have been done by the SMEs, a proposed framework could be conceptualized. By using e-commerce and ride-hailing appropriately in this digital era, it is able to increase the development of the halal culinary business where the majority of Indonesian citizens are Muslim and realize that consuming halal food is an obligation, not a habit. Thus, the proposed model expectedly will give impact on three sectors i.e., 1) SMEs could take advantage of the increasing demand for halal food products, lifestyle, and the advancement of digitalization, and expand the business potential; 2) the e-commerce and ride-hailing company to implement halal food products assurance by displaying some additional requirements; 3) the consumers, need to be aware when ordering food and beverages in e-commerce and ride-hailing.

Pop Culture Production in the Philippine Cordillera
Authors: Fong Jimmy
Published: March 2023

Most of the media representations of the Igorot continue to exoticize and freeze them in an ideal, primitive past. This paper foregrounds the cultural products not being produced by the Igorot using modern technology and media. In these self-conscious products, where they exercise agency, what can be learned from such pop culture products? How are the Igorot representing themselves? In pop songs, they construct who they are and what they have become. In recorded songs using mostly American folk, rock and country melodies and forms, they tell stories of how they are making sense of their experiences in an unevenly globalizing, runaway world.

Published: March 2023

Sûfilerin genel anlamda ilimlere, hadislere ve hadis ilmine yaklaşımları hem amelî hem nazarî açıdan irfân ve ma’rifet anlayışına göre şekillenmiştir. Bu yüzden Sufilerin hadisle ilişkisi konusunda tasavvuf geleneğinde zâhiri ilimlerden birisi olarak görülen hadis ve hadis ilimlerine karşı irfânî bakışın nasıl olduğunu tespit etmek gerekir. Özellikle Hakîm et-Tirmizî’nin (ö. 285/898) hadis metinlerini değerlendirmede “Hadisin ma’rufunu ve münkerini bilme/tanıma”ya yönelik ortaya koymuş olduğu irfânî teorisi, Ebû Tâlib el-Mekkî’nin (ö. 386/996) cerh ve tadil ilmi, zayıf hadisler ve rey hakkındaki görüşleri, Gazzâlî’nin (ö. 505/1111) irfân ve ma’rifet açısından hadis ilimleri hakkındaki değerlendirmeleri hadis ilimlerine ma’rifet temelli tasavvufî yaklaşımı temsil etmektedir. Sûfîler içerisinde farklı bir yaklaşımı Ebû Nasr Serrâc et-Tûsî ortaya koymuş, hadislerin senetleri ve hadis ilimleri ile ilgili teknik bilgilerin hadisçilere bırakılması gerektiğini belirtmiştir. Bu makalede sûfîlerin hadis ve hadis ilimleri ile münasebetini söz konusu bu müelliflerin görüşleri çerçevesinde ele almaya çalışacağız.

Authors: Osman M. Koko Isra , M. Barakat Taj Alasfia
Published: March 2023

This work aims to study the behavior of fluid mixtures in the dividing wall column, particularly from a controllability point of view. It covers the aspects of design, modeling, and control. A ternary mixture of benzene, toluene, and o-xylene (BTX) is selected as a case study. A controllability analysis for determining and screening the candidate control combinations of the manipulated variables is carried out with the aid of a linearized model using the concept of relative gain array (RGA). The manipulated variables are the reflux (L), the distillate (D), the side stream (S), the bottom (B) and the boilup (V). Based on RGA criterion, two of the candidate combinations are selected to control the column due to the low interaction between control loops. In each combination the manipulated variables are used to control the top level, the bottom level, the top composition, the middle composition and the bottom composition. Finally, the performance of these two combinations is examined and found to be successful in resisting the disturbances.

Published: March 2023

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of the combination of Lactulose and Polyethylene glycol (PEG) versus Lactulose alone in improving the grade of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) within 24 hours of hospital admission in patients with hepatic encephalopathy due to decompensated liver cirrhosis precipitated by constipation. Study Design: Randomized controlled trial. Place and Duration: The Department of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and GI Endoscopy, Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto Medical University, Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS), Islamabad, Pakistan from 07-05-2020 to 06-05-2021. Methodology: One hundred and sixteen patients (58 in each group) of either gender aged 20-70 years having decompensated liver cirrhosis with HE grade 2 to 4 secondary to constipation were enrolled. Patients were randomly and equally divided into either Lactulose and PEG (Group-1) or Lactulose alone (Group-2) by lottery method. West Haven Criteria was used for labeling HE grades at the baseline and after 24 hours of treatment in both study groups. A one-grade improvement in HE after 24 hours of treatment from the baseline was considered as effectiveness of treatment. Results: Treatment was found effective (at least one HE grade improvement) in 43 (74.1%) patients treated with PEG+Lactulose, while it was 32 (55.2%) in patients who were treated with Lactulose alone (p=0.033). When stratified for age and gender, PEG+Lactulose was significantly effective in improving HE grades in younger age group (p=0.007) and males (p=0.040). Practical Implications: Combination treatment with PEG+Lactulose can be a preferred option for improvement in HE grades in comparison to treatment with lactulose alone Conclusions: Combination treatment with PEG+Lactulose was found to be more effective in improving HE grades when compared to treatment with lactulose alone within 24 hours of hospital admission among patients who had decompensated liver cirrhosis precipitated by constipation.

Published: March 2023

Background: The use of medicinal plants in herbalism has been documented for thousands of years, with evidence dating back to ancient civilizations such as the, Chinese, Greeks and Egyptians1. Extensive clinical studies have demonstrated that Althaeaofficinalis has properties that promote healing of ulcers2. Aim: To evaluate effectiveness of Althaeaofficinalis seed extract compared to Daflon (diosmin plus hesperidin) in treating hemorrhoids. Methods: A double-blind, randomized clinical trial was carried out in Lahore's urban community. Patients with acute hemorrhoids were randomly divided into two parallel groups, each with 60 participants, for a one-week period. The selection of family physicians for the study was done randomly.6,7,8 Interventions: In the beginning, the participants were given either two capsules of 500mg Althaea seed extract or two tablets of Daflonin morning and evening for four days, followed by two capsules/tablets daily for the next three days. The primary measure of effectiveness was the alleviation of symptoms and signs.9,10 Results: Both groups demonstrated similar improvement from first day tolast day. The intensity of symptoms such as itching, tenesmus, and bleeding ,swelling, painetc reduced markedly in both groups, but the reduction was fast in the Althaeaofficinalis seed extract group observed initial days of the trial. Practical Implications: Estimated prevalence of haemorrhoids ranges from 2.9% to 27.9% worldwide.11,12.13 However, due to cultural practices, it is often ignored and left untreated, It is therefore essential to design preventive measures and control strategies for hemorrhoids. Conclusion: Both Althaea and Daflon were found relieving haemorrhoidal signs and symptoms of hemorrhoids. However, the use of Althaea seed extract resulted in quicker relief and it may be used as good alternative to Daflon.

Medicinal plants are frequently used in traditional medicine and about 80% peoples of developing countries use this traditional therapy to treat their ailments. Bombax insigne (Sw.). K. Shcum is a large deciduous tree, locally known as Bon or Pahari shimul or Tula gachh. The present study was designed to investigate the antioxidant and hepatoprotective potential of ethanolic extract of B. insigne fresh bark. In-vivo antioxidant activity tests were performed by determining the lipid peroxidation and catalase concentration of the homogenized liver of Swiss albino rats receiving two doses (1.5 and 3 gm/kg body weight) of the plant extract with 750 mg/kg body weight of paracetamol. For liver function tests (LFT), total 35 rats were taken and divided into five groups containing seven animals in each. Group I received distilled water; group II received only paracetamol. Group III received paracetamol with silymarin. Group IV and V both were treated with paracetamol along with two doses of B. insigne extract. To evaluate the hepatoprotective potential, seven liver test markers such as total protein, albumin, total bilirubin, alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) of rats were considered. Test’s result for antioxidant activity demonstrated that the plant extract could inhibit the level of lipid peroxidation (LPO) induced by paracetamol. Enhancement of the level of the antioxidant enzyme catalase (CAT) was also observed. Paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity in rats, as judged by the raised total protein, albumin, total bilirubin, serum enzymes, ALT, AST, ALP, GGT, were significantly prevented by the treatment with the extracts at different doses, demonstrating the hepatoprotective action of B. insigne. Histopathological observation also confirmed the hepatoprotective potential of B. insigne. Livers those were challenged with paracetamol exhibits the dishevelment of normal hepatic cells with centrilobular necrosis, inflammatory encroachment of lymphocytes and fatty changes were significantly protected by plant extract. The results of the present study suggested that B. insigne has antioxidant and hepatoprotective potential.

As a heterogeneous category of malignant neoplasms with a variety of histological characteristics, chondrosarcomas are distinguished by the production of cartilaginous matrix. Oncological surgical excision is the preferred form of treatment due to the disease's inherent resistance to chemotherapy and radiation. Histological grading and tumor localisation localization are the most crucial prognostic indicators having a huge impact on treatment plan. The prognosis for proximal humerus chondrosarcoma has marginally improved, particularly for low and moderate grade tumors.

This case reports a 32-year-old female who presented with shoulder pain for the past few days and was diagnosed with grade-2 chondrosarcoma. She was successfully treated with surgical excision of the growing tumor with reconstruction of the humerus.
Analysis on The Good Doctor Season 1 from the Perspective of Cooperative Principle
Authors: Fan Yuxin
Published: March 2023

In 1967, the American language philosopher Grice proposed the cooperative principle, which provided a new theoretical framework for conversation analysis. In the following decades, the cooperative principle has been a trending topic of discussion in linguistics and continuously developed. Leech’s politeness principle and Wilson and Sperber’s relative theory have improved the cooperation principle from different aspects. The cooperative principle has been widely applied in the analysis of conversations in films, dramas, and literature, which contributes to a holistic understanding of characterization and dramatic conflicts. In this paper, doctor-patient dialogues in The Good Doctor Season 1 are analyzed from the theoretical perspective of the cooperative principle. It can be discerned that healthcare workers should comply with the maxim of quality and quantity, to no little extent, when communicating with patients. However, in different contexts, healthcare workers sometimes choose to deliberately violate the maxim of relation and manner in order to achieve better communication effects, such as helping patients understand their conditions or relieving patients’ tension. This paper intends to provide effective suggestions for real-life doctor-patient communication by applying the cooperative principle to the corpus analysis in The Good Doctor Season 1, so as to improve the communication efficiency of both parties and create a harmonious doctor-patient relationship.
Analysis of Jack’s Mind, the Protagonist of : Based on Lacanian Psychoanalysis
Authors:   Liberal Arts Innovation Center, Chun Bum Sue

Jack, the protagonist of , suffers from insomnia, and is tired of his daily routine in a capitalist society. After encountering his own alter ego, Tyler Durden, he founds the Fight Club in order to start a violent revolution in attempt to mock and resist the materialistic world.
Jacques Lacan establishes three stages in human psyche: the Imaginary, Symbolic and the Real. Each stage explains the mechanics of human desires. Most of us experience the Imaginary, then transition to the Symbolic stage. However, incomplete separation of oneself from the Imaginary in transition to the Symbolic causes paraphilia, and absence of any separation from the Imaginary inflicts one with psychosis.  shows Jack’s psychological journey that travels from paraphilia, psychosis and all the way to entering the Real. Particularly, by portraying Tyler Durden and Marla Singer as two opposite forces around Jack, the film alludes to the stark contrast between the traits of psychosis and the Real. Furthermore, as a commercial movie from Hollywood, the film successfully packages its plot and characters into the three act structure and heroism, prevalent in Hollywood action movies, making its psychological theme more accessible to general audiences.

Published: March 2023

The chemical composition of wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens L.) essential oil (WEO) was identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and evaluated for its biological activities. Methyl salicylate (100%) was the main compound in the wintergreen essential oil. The herbicidal efficacy of the WEO was confirmed by germination inhibition, radical and shoot length reduction, and phytotoxicity assessment with Echinochloa crus–galli and Amaranthus tricolor seedlings. The WEO significantly reduced the germination and seedling growth of both weeds. It showed highly significant inhibition of seed germination (93.37%) and seedling growth of A. tricolor at the highest dose (6 µL/petri dish) assayed. The WEO was formulated as an emulsifiable concentrate (EC-EO) for post-emergence application, and was applied at a range of concentrations from 10 to 80 mL/L. Both treated plant leaves appeared wilted and slightly discolored within 1 day of application (DAA). The visible weed control efficacy was most remarkable at 80 mL/L treatment, which was a level that ultimately killed the seedlings of both species at 3 DAA, suggesting promising herbicidal potential for the WEO. The WEO showed weak scavenging activity with a high IC50 value (IC50 >2"×" 104 and >5"×" 104 ppm) for DPPH scavenging and metal chelating assays, respectively. The WEO showed moderate antibacterial activity, and its zones of inhibition against bacterial test strains were 7.90±0.8 mm and 23.9±0.9 mm for Escherichia coli TISTR 780 and Staphylococcus aureus TISTR 1466, respectively. Therefore, the results suggest the possibility of using WEO as an active ingredient to produce natural herbicides.

Self-cleaning textiles can be divided into three categories, which are the physical, chemical, and biological self-cleaning types. Physical self-cleaning refers to the lotus effect, which relates to the hydrophobic properties of the textile. Chemical self-cleaning is the degradation of color stains, discolored solutions and other organic species that come into contact with textiles. The last is biological self-cleaning, which is the ability to kill bacteria that become attached to the textiles. In this research, the development of all three self-cleaning properties of polyester textile coated with zinc oxide nanoparticles/ polydimethylsiloxane (ZnO/ PDMS) composite was focused. The ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by a hydrothermal process, which involved blending PDMS with various concentrations of ZnO nanoparticles. The polyester textile was coated with ZnO/ PDMS composite solution via a dip coating technique done with various dipping times. The lotus effect, which depends on hydrophobic properties, was analyzed by water contact angle measurement. The chemical self-cleaning of the polyester textile was examined by photocatalytic methylene blue dye degradation with UV-Vis spectrometry. The inhibition zone of antibacterial activity was tested via disc diffusion technique. From these results, it was found that the polyester textile coated with ZnO/PDMS composite demonstrated all self-cleaning properties, physical, chemical and biological, in a significantly way.

O Programa Nacional de Alimentação Escolar (PNAE) está presente no Brasil há mais de 60 anos, sem interrupções. Durante esse período, o Programa adotou diferentes denominações e modalidades de gestão. Em 2009, com a promulgação da Lei n. 11.947/2009, estabeleceu-se que no mínimo 30% dos recursos repassados pelo Fundo Nacional de Desenvolvimento da Educação (FNDE) para a execução do PNAE deveriam ser utilizados nas aquisições de gêneros alimentícios diretamente da agricultura familiar e do empreendedor familiar rural ou de suas organizações. O objetivo deste artigo é verificar a adesão das prefeituras (entidade executoras) do estado de Mato Grosso do Sul na aquisição de alimentos da agricultura familiar no Programa Nacional de Alimentação Escolar (PNAE) para a rede municipal de ensino em observância à referida Lei. Para a fundamentação empírica foi utilizada a pesquisa documental, a partir da qual foram analisados documentos dos municípios de Mato Grosso do Sul e a coleta e a análise dos dados do Sistema de Gestão de Prestação de Contas (SiGPC). O recorte espacial foram os dados referentes aos municípios do estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, no ínterim de 2011 a 2017. Nesse sentido, foi feita avaliação da adesão das prefeituras ao Programa e os resultados apontam que 7 prefeituras no estado de Mato Grosso do Sul ainda não realizaram nenhuma compra de alimentos da Agricultura familiar.

Tujuan umum tindakan kolesistektomi adalah menyembuhkan atau meringankan gejala yang mengganggu atau bahkan dapat mematikan. Namun pascakolesistektomi dapat timbul keluhan, dikenal sebagai sindrom pasca-kolesistektomi (SPK). Angka kejadian SPK pada kolesistektomi laparatomi antara 25% - 40% untuk gejala ringan hingga sekitar 10% untuk gejala berat. Keluhan SPK dapat terjadi setelah 2 hari hingga 25 tahun pasca-kolesistektomi. Keluhan umumnya berupa nyeri abdomen kuadran kanan atas, dengan atau tanpa nyeri alih, mirip nyeri sebelum kolesistektomi. Penatalaksanaan SPK terdiri dari intervensi bedah dan non-bedah, farmakoterapi, dan pengaturan nutrisi.
The general goal of cholecystectomy is to cure or relieve the disturbing symptoms or even lethal. However, the procedure may be complicated by postcholecystectomy syndrome (PCS). The incidence of PCS in laparoscopic cholecystectomy varies from 25% to 40% for mild symptoms to about 10% for severe symptoms. PCS can occur in 2 days to 25 years after cholecystectomy. Most patients present with right upper quadrant abdominal pain, with or without referred pain, similar to the pain experienced before cholecystectomy. The management of PCS consists of surgical and non-surgical interventions, pharmacotherapy, and nutritional management.

Authors: Talib Ameen , Ang Yi Xin
Published: March 2023

The introduction of new products in a market would normally require an extensive marketing and promotion campaign. However, certain products are ‘regulated’ as they are deemed undesirable for society. Tobacco products are one such example. The regulation governing tobacco products does not allow for any marketing and promotion.  Shisha is a different form of tobacco consumption. Therefore, the introduction of Shisha in the Singapore market is introducing a new regulated product. This paper discusses a case study of the introduction and promotion of Shisha in Singapore. The study used qualitative approach with case study design. The data were generated from the researcher’s observation of a Shisha café in Singapore. The researcher made a field note as his data source and analyzed it by studying it and reduce them to only necessary ones. The case of the café is case that people can learn from in how to do personal based promotion and WOM. The strategy actually worked very well that the success of Shisha popularity eventually led to the banning of Shisha.
