TARAS SHEVCHENKO AND VIETNAMESE READERS
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Hoang T. V.
Published: November 2024

The article discusses some of the issues traditionally associated with the translation of the works of Taras Shevchenko, in this case Vietnamese. Some features of the Ukrainian and Vietnamese literary traditions have been analyzed, and so far have not been studied. For example, translating place names, people's names, translating ancient phrases, idioms... The most difficult thing is that ancient words have changed their meanings. In short, translating poetry is not simply translating words but also translating an entire culture. Translators must, on the one hand, be faithful to the original, while on the other hand not distort the target language. A successful translation is one that reconciles both poles. The translation must be Vietnameseized in a skilled and professional manner so that readers can feel the beauty and uniqueness of Shevchenko's poetry.

It is proved that all the unique individual characteristics of world cultures in general and their own representatives (in the case of this study, it was Ukrainian poet Taras Shevchenko and Vietnamese poet Nguyen Du) became more open to understanding as artists and personalities during the translation process. What is noted in the paper generally confirms the relevance of the study to problems of acculturation.

It is proved that Vietnamese poets with special responsibility approach the process of translation, trying to convey the fullness of Taras Shevchenko's words. Vietnamese translators put huge work into discovering and analyzing new sides of T. Shevchenko's works. One thing that makes Vietnamese readers and especially academic critics have a lot of love and admiration for the works of the great Ukrainian poet because they find similarities with the great Vietnamese poet – Nguyen Du. That similarity is reflected in the selection of typical female characters in the works.

Through the fate of a woman to tell the fate of an entire nation.
THE FUNDAMENTALS OF ANTI-COLONIAL DISCOURSE OF T. SHEVCHENKO'S POETRY
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Hudyma Anna
Published: November 2024

The article outlines the principles of the poet's anti-colonial discourse, relying on the authoritative judgments of Shevchenko's scholars and post-colonial researches by Ukrainian scientists. T. Shevchenko's creativity met the challenges and needs of national existence, when Ukrainians were threatened with the loss of their national identity under the pressure of the denationalizing imperial policy. The artist's anti-colonial discourse is updated in connection with modern challenges and the need to understand the cultural processes in the Ukrainian national liberation movement and needs careful reading. Such important forms of denial of the imperial policy in the artist's discourse are Shevchenko's Ukrainian centrism, the nation-building essence of his poetry, the image of the Russian Empire as a "dark kingdom" with all its characteristics: the boundless arbitrariness of the tsar as the primary source of evil and lawlessness, the arbitrariness of his officials, on the one hand, and on the other the second – Moscow serfdom; suppression of free thought, strict censorship; slavery, poverty, demoralization, wars of aggression. Within the limits of his anti-colonial concept, he debunks the idols of the empire –the tsars; contrasts Ukrainians as superior – humane and democratic – to Muscovites – as inhumane and slavish; interprets the pre-colonial Cossack era as a time of self-rule with the principles of freedom and equality rooted in it; laments the suffering of Ukraine oppressed by the Russian Empire; demythologizes imperial myths: the Pereyaslav Rada, the so-called "brotherhood" of Ukrainians and Muscovites; сondemnes malorosiistvo as a widespread phenomenon of mental disease among Ukrainians inspired by the empire, etc. Shevchenko's counter-discourse to the imperial discourse worked to assert national identity, challenged colonial policies and undermined the power and threatened the integrity of the empire.
GENELOGICAL ISSUES IN THE SHEVCHENKO STUDIOS OF LEONID BILETSKY
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Bernadska Nina
Published: November 2024

The article depicts the Shevchenko studies of L. Biletsky, one of the famous literary experts, who throughout his life, in the 10–50s of the 20 th century, interpreted the life and work of the Ukrainian genius. Conventionally, these are two periods – Kamianets-Podilskyi and foreign. In the first of them, the scientist actively popularizes the artistic heritage of the Ukrainian poet in the form of reports, exploration of the scientific and methodological content of teaching T. Shevchenko's work at school. The second period is reviews of selected works of the poet by various compilers, translations into Ukrainian of the stories "The Artist", "The Diary" and the most significant achievement of the scientist – the monumental edition of T. Shevchenko's poetic work, "Kobzar" in four volumes (1952–1954) with a detailed commentary and separate articles-essays, as well as a special – cyclical, by groups of texts according to the poet's state of mind – composition. It traces (according to the Shevchenkian edition, volumes 1–3, published in Kyiv in 2013), how L. Biletsky defines the genre nature of both lyrical (elegy, personal, reflective, folk-based) and lyrical-epic works (poem, ballad , dialogue) of the poet. L. Biletskyi, characterizing individual genres of T. Shevchenko, relies on the concept of emotional and figurative thinking, the heart of which is the fusion of the author's and lyrical self, as well as such worldview and aesthetic dominants of T. Shevchenko's work as natiology, historiosophy, romanticism. The scientist uses various criteria to determine the genus-species specificity of the poet's works – thematic, formal and content. At the same time, he tries to find out T. Shevchenko's innovation in this field, to fit his genre searches into the all-Ukrainian and European context. And although his reasoning is random, unsystematic, they are interesting to both the historian and the theoretician of literature, because they add new touches to T. Shevchenko's work.
Semantic and Expressive Potential of Punctuation Marks in Headlines (Based on the Material of Article Headlines on OtiumPortal Website)
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Shumarova Nataliya
Published: November 2024

The purpose of the article is to determine the semantic and expressive potential of headlines through the use of punctuation marks. Research material included texts by journalism students, devoted to the topic of travel and published on the OtiumPortal website during 2022-2024.

The methods used in the research were determined by the necessary tasks to achieve the goal. Continuous sampling, comparative and semantic analysis methods were applied to discover semantic and expressive connotations influenced by punctuation marks in headlines.

The analysis showed that punctuation marks used in headlines perform two main functions for which they were introduced into the headline: semantic, which consists in transmitting and formatting fragments of information content, and expressive, which is designed to highlight this content and generate emotions and interest of the reader.

Among the three types of «the Dot Complex» – Period, Colon, Ellipsis – the period is the punctuation mark with the most blurred positional capabilities. It can easily be replaced with a colon or a dash without losing meaning, indicating a certain ‘defunctionalization’ of the sign. At the same time, as a semantic pause, a symbol of completion, the period carries a double meaning of the end of a statement and the beginning of something new, the learning of which necessitates a pause.

The colon realizes the greatest semantic power, being the most frequently used sign in the analyzed headlines. It is most often used in models of various positional relations of an object with its characteristics, place, and purpose of interaction.

Isolated cases of using ellipses in headlines demonstrate the significant expressive potential of this punctuation mark and, from a semantic perspective, predict the unexpected nature of the subsequent content.

Commas, dashes, and exclamation marks in headlines are used according to the rules of «Ukrainian Spelling» (2019). The question mark in headlines performs its direct function; its absence in headlines with indirect questions may indicate a change in the communicative positions of «author: reader».

The enhancement of meaning occurs due to the effect of the unexpected appearance of the punctuation mark and is enriched by expressive nuances.

Air Pollution as an Environmental Risk Factor for Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias
Authors: Park Heui , Armstrong Matthew , Gorin Fredric , Lein Pamela
Published: November 2024

Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias are a leading cause of morbidity in our aging populations. Although influenced by genetic factors, fewer than 5% of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia cases are due solely to genetic causes. There is growing scientific consensus that these dementias arise from complex gene by environment interactions. The 2020 Lancet Commission on dementia prevention, intervention, and care identified 12 modifiable risk factors of dementia, including lifestyle, educational background, comorbidities, and environmental exposures to environmental contaminants. In this review, we summarize the current understanding and data gaps regarding the role(s) of environmental pollutants in the etiology of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias with a focus on air pollution. In addition to summarizing findings from epidemiological and experimental animal studies that link airborne exposures to environmental contaminants to increased risk and/or severity of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, we discuss currently hypothesized mechanism(s) underlying these associations, including peripheral inflammation, neuroinflammation and epigenetic changes. Key data gaps in this rapidly expanding investigative field and approaches for addressing these gaps are also addressed.
"Everything thickens": Ngaio Marsh and an Intermedial Macbeth from New Zealand
Authors: Murray-Pepper Megan
Published: November 2024

This paper explores the Shakespearean intersections in the works of New Zealand theater director and detective writer Ngaio Marsh (1895-1982) in the context of adaptation strategies within "settler cultures" and with Macbeth as a focus. Archival records of the New Zealand theater demonstrate the similarities between Marsh's productions of Macbeth in 1946 and 1962; the dramaturgy of the witches in particular distinguishes her stagings in the wider landscape of Anglophone production. Subsequently, Marsh reproduces and magnifies these productions in her final novel Light Thickens (1982). In reading closely the elements of montage, sensory crossover, and lexical repetition in Marsh's prose, I elaborate the precise formal relations of the intermedial approach that is at the heart of her aesthetic practices of adaptation. Where Marsh's multiple Shakespearean works appear to pursue a kind of inert repetition that reveals the play's essence, the play that "is," I argue that her work is characterized by a distinctive and interconnected accretion of Macbeth "performances." Culturally speaking, her multifocal engagement with Shakespeare is symptomatic of a settler culture that frequently experienced — through the complex dynamics of British affiliations — a sense of entitlement to or ownership of the Shakespearean canon.
Shakespeare and Politics Between Media
Authors: J. Williams Nora , Barnden Sally
Published: November 2024

The title of this special issue, "Shakespeare and Politics Between Media," does not imply that these essays are all concerned with Shakespeare's depictions of political processes as they have been remediated. Though certain essays address Richard's use in Richard III of direct address and the potency of a political appeal for empathy in Sir Thomas More, the issue's central concern is not with the politics depicted in the plays, but with the politics of returning to Shakespeare from the perspective of the present moment. The essays in this issue therefore address the political stakes of remediation, particularly the power dynamic between audience and media. They represent an understanding that the personal is political, including when it comes to media creation and consumption; they look at ways that Shakespeare adaptations may become entangled with issues which are, today, deeply politicised: particularly race and gender.

Shakespeare's Humanizing Language in Films and TV Series
Authors: Hatchuel Sarah
Published: November 2024

If Harold Bloom presented Shakespeare, in a rather essentialist way, as the author who invented the Human, US television series project Shakespeare as a playwright who conveys a humanity in constant redefinition, reconstruction and reassertion. Shakespeare is not mobilized to define the Human in a fixed way, but rather contributes to an extension of what we consider human. In such science fiction series as Star Trek, Person of Interest or Westworld, Shakespeare's words become the signs through which machines and robots reveal that they are becoming human or rather that they had always already been human. This dialogue between Shakespeare and "post-human" series echoes that established in The Elephant Man filmed in 1980 by David Lynch, a director who has invested the fields of both cinema and television.

Transformative Play in Pericles Behind Bars
Authors: Herold Niels
Published: November 2024

This essay examines the 20th anniversary production of Pericles by the Shakespeare Behind Bars theater program at the Luther Luckett Correctional Complex as an illustrative example of the "ordinary miracles" performed through the SBB's process of transformative play. Beginning with the company's initial disappointment with the play as a co-authored and ensemble piece, the essay traces Pericles' ability to speak to the individual lives of prison actors seeking acceptance and rehabilitation.
Shakespeare's Hand, or "the strangers' case": Remediating Sir Thomas More in the context of the Refugee Crisis
Authors: O'Neill Stephen
Published: November 2024

Among the literary and artistic responses to the contemporary humanitarian crisis of refuge is Sir Thomas More, the late Elizabethan play that Shakespeare had a hand in and in which the protagonist offers a powerful articulation of "the strangers' case." It is the modern uses of this speech that this article focuses on, in particular on digital platforms, and as a response to the contemporary refugee crisis and discourses about migrants. Notable uses of the speech include Ian McKellen's recitations and their remediation on Twitter (with the hashtag #strangerscase) and YouTube (McKellen 2010); the Bell Shakespeare Company, who produced a video featuring "new arrivals to Australia" (Change Media 2011); Stephen Greenblatt's inclusion of it to suggest that Shakespeare is a "cure for xenophobia" (Greenblatt 2017); the Shakespeare Association of America (James 2017), which cited More's words in reaction to Trump's travel ban; and a series of events at Shakespeare's Globe to mark international refugee week (@The_Globe 2018). Tracking such examples, the article employs theories of remediation and of media flow to examine critically how the More speech, that itself imagines flows of people, circulates as a digital object online, be it in the form of the tweet hashtag #strangerscase, or a YouTube video. It also makes use of the digital affordances of Borrowers and Lenders, embedding links and samples to construct a digital archive of the speech's remediation and circulation. These iterations draw Shakespeare, long imagined as a type of transnational traveller, into urgent ethical questions about borders, displaced peoples, and responsibility to the Other, as More's empathetic plea comes to function synecdochally for Shakespeare, the "Hand D" of the play's collaborative authorship. The article explores how a dismembered Bard returns through processes of remediation in digital settings, where unseen or nonhuman agents are increasingly constitutive of the thing we call "Shakespeare." The article deliberately avoids rehearsing familiar debates about Shakespeare's cultural value, however, to address instead the challenges and also the possibilities of applying Shakespeare to humanitarian crises. I suggest that the remediated More / Shakespeare constitute spaces where values of empathy, tolerance, and diversity can find articulation.
Treading the Maze
Authors: Lutz Michael
Published: November 2024

As this special issue of Borrowers and Lenders demonstrates, there is indeed a variety of thinking and valuing at work in the Shakespeare games our contributors discuss. Games might make of Shakespeare a kind of cultural litmus test, a body of knowledge to be mastered in order to pass a difficult puzzle; but they might also give players the chance to speak back to or around the figure of Shakespeare by attending to characters left in his margins.
Roméo et Juliette: de la Haine à l'Amour: A Controversial Adaptation
Authors: Paravano Cristina
Published: November 2024

This essay examines the adaptation strategies adopted in Gérard Presgurvic's critically controversial Roméo et Juliette: de la Haine à l'Amour (2001). It investigates the factors which brought about the controversial response in France in 2001, analyzing the reception of the show from three perspectives: the audience, the critics, and the subsequent adaptors of the work. The essay also discusses the reasons for the negative reaction to its adaptation in 2002 in England, the country where Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet was staged for the first time.
Agency within Analog Shakespearean Games
Authors: Guy Dickson Vernon
Published: November 2024

Analog (board and card) gaming is gaining popularity, in part motivated by the influence of new design principles inspired by so-called eurogames (deriving from the tradition of board games begun in Germany, such as Catan). This article studies the development of new approaches to affording player agency within three analog games with developed Shakespearean themes: Kill Shakespeare, Council of Verona, and Shakespeare. Using Albert Bandura’s social cognitive theories of agency as manifested in playing analog games, this article argues that games offer a meaningful way to see agency within a discrete social space and that games offer distinctive sites for varying agentic opportunities for players, though often as limited as they are freeing due to game and social constraints. These contemporary games use Shakespeare as a thematic center, allowing players to become agents within new Shakespearean game worlds, engaging players in active and dynamic social roles and highly structured play.

Ekshumacje na Górkach Czechowskich w Lublinie w latach 2022-2024
Authors: Derewenda Robert
Published: November 2024

Obszar Górek Czechowskich w Lublinie był miejscem egzekucji więźniów Zamku Lubelskiego w czasie II wojny światowej. W latach 2020-2024 Instytutu Pamięci Narodowej podejmował działania mające na celu odnalezienie i identyfikację ofiar egzekucji dokonywanych na tym terenie. Górki Czechowskie stanowiły dogodne miejsce do przeprowadzania straceń. Oddalenie od zabudowań miejskich ułatwiało ukrywanie zbrodni przed mieszkańcami Lublina. Wąwozy zapewniały dyskrecję i utrudniały dostęp do miejsca pochówku ofiar. W latach 1940-1942 na tym terenie miało miejsce co najmniej sześć egzekucji. W latach 1947-1948, Polski Czerwony Krzyż (PCK) wspólnie z Okręgową Komisją Badania Zbrodni Hitlerowskich (OKBZH) w Lublinie i Starostwem Powiatowym w Lublinie przeprowadziło ekshumacje na Górkach Czechowskich. Wydobyto wówczas 231 ciał, jednak ofiar nie udało się zidentyfikować. W latach 2020-2024 IPN przeprowadził sześć etapów poszukiwań. Dopiero w 2022 r. udało się odnaleźć masowe groby. W 2023 r. odkryto trzy jamy grobowe, w których znajdowały się szczątki co najmniej 25 osób. Analiza odnalezionych artefaktów, takich jak guziki, wskazuje, że część ofiar mogła być związana z polskim podziemiem niepodległościowym. Kolejne dwie mogiły zostały odkryte w 2024 r. Odnaleziono tam szczątki należące do ośmiu osób. IPN planuje kontynuować prace poszukiwawcze na Górkach Czechowskich. Współpraca historyków, prokuratorów i archeologów ma na celu ustalenie tożsamości ofiar i okoliczności ich śmierci.
Importance of Showing Up (Virtually)
Authors: Lorenz Danielle E. , Patrie Nicole
Published: November 2024

Although online discourses about dissertation writing (i.e., you should be writing memes) offer students levity, they function in stark contrast to how dissertation writing is treated in real life. Canadian education scholars with PhDs have examined the student-supervisor relationship (McAlpine & Weis, 2000), collaborative writing spaces (Eaton & Dombroski, 2022; Ens et al., 2011), and the overall difficulties of the dissertation process (Bayley et al., 2012; Walter & Stouk, 2020), but we have yet to locate literature on the perspectives of Canadian education PhD students who have generated online communities of practice to engage in their dissertation writing. To obtain better understanding of our personal relationships to writing and virtual communities of practice, we established an online writing group during the summer of 2023 where we wrote our respective candidacy proposal and dissertation chapters while also reflecting on and responding to prompts about the process of writing. This reflection on our writing practice concludes that if PhD students feel un(der)supported by institutional writing communities, or if said communities are not available, constructing their own community will be beneficial to their writing goals
Overseas voting: The case of Jamaica Nuh wey nuh betta than yard
Authors: Vasciannie Lisa
Published: November 2024

Este articulo aborda las perspectivas de permitir a los jamaiquinos residentes en el extranjero votar en las elecciones de su país de origen. Esta cuestión ha surgido en dos frentes: en el contexto nacional y en el discurso académico y político internacional. El Pacto Internacional de Derechos Civiles y Políticos (PIDCP) afirma el derecho de los ciudadanos “a elegir y ser elegidos en elecciones auténticas y periódicas”. En debates recientes se ha cuestionado la aplicación de estos derechos en Jamaica. En ese sentido, esta investigación indaga si los ciudadanos jamaiquinos residentes en el extranjero tienen derecho a votar en las elecciones de Jamaica desde el extranjero y, en caso afirmativo, en que condiciones lo pueden hacer. A nivel nacional, desde la diaspora se han hecho llamados a los dos principales partidos políticos, el Partido Laborista de Jamaica (JLP) y el Partido Nacional del Pueblo (PNP), para que permitan el derecho de voto a los jamaiquinos residentes en el extranjero. Las respuestas a estas demandas se han reflejado en diversas políticas nacionales. Un aspecto central de estos debates es si el derecho al voto, consagrado en el PIDCP y en varias constituciones nacionales, se extiende más allá de las fronteras. Este articulo examina críticamente la viabilidad de implantar el voto en el extranjero como opción política para Jamaica. La investigación aborda cuestiones de soberanía, ciudadanía y el papel y los derechos de la diaspora en las relaciones internacionales contemporáneas.
A identidade ambiental na pós-modernidade
Authors: Koch Rodrigo , Andrade Maria Eduarda Moraes
Published: November 2024

Discussão da constituição identitária dos sujeitos que se consideram vinculados ao ambiente natural e sustentável nos contextos pós-modernos, tendo como objetivos: conhecer e compreender os conceitos de Identidade, Identidade Ambiental e suas Pedagogias Culturais; compreender de quais formas a Identidade Ambiental do sujeito se estabelece na Pós-Modernidade e como as Pedagogias Culturais auxiliam este processo; examinar como as Pedagogias Culturais influenciam na formação da Identidade; debater sobre a construção da Identidade Ambiental na Pós-Modernidade, e investigar e analisar como os Discursos Ambientais podem nos persuadir nas atitudes ecológicas. A partir de uma revisão bibliográfica da temática, foram feitas entrevistas com professores da Educação Básica na Região das Hortênsias do Rio Grande do Sul sobre suas formações e práticas educativas dirigidas às crianças e o que pretendem ensinar sobre sustentabilidade e ambientalismo, além da análise textual discursiva do conteúdo do veículo midiático Menos1Lixo. É possível afirmar, que há indícios de que os discursos presentes na mídia e na educação produzem a identidade ambiental pós-moderna, com fortes vínculos em um consumo dito sustentável, mas que também carece de questionamentos.
ENVELHECIMENTO E CAPITAL NO MUNDO CONTEMPORÂNEO: transição demográfica e a interface com a economia prateada
Authors: Passos Aruanã Antonio dos , Alves Luiz Felipe Nunes de , Bernartt Maria de Lourdes
Published: November 2024

O presente artigo pretende explorar a relação construída entre o mercado de consumo para pessoas idosas (silver economy) e a diversidade socioeconômica dessa coorte, com o intuito de demonstrar que o acesso de bens, mercadorias e serviços ofertados pelo mercado, que não seja de bens massivos ou de manutenção da vida, somente está ao alcance de uma pequena maioria desse público. Para auxiliar na construção do texto lançou-se mão de uma vasta bibliografia, capitaneada por Ana Amélia Camarano (2002, 2004) e José Diniz Alves (2002,2006, 2008,2014, 2020), José Magno Carvalho (2003, 2005, 2008), que abordam a transição demografia e a subsequente transfiguração ocorrida na pirâmide etária do país. Essa metamorfose impactou o ápice da pirâmide etária, envelhecendo o país e que o envelhecerá ainda mais nas próximas décadas. Para substanciar a composição textual utilizou-se de diversas matérias jornalísticas que tecem loas sobre o mercado prateado, traçando analogias sobre o que vem ocorrendo com esse mercado nos países desenvolvidos. Esse pensamento desconsidera, por completo, a imensa desigualdade social vigente no país, na qual as pessoas idosas estão inseridos.

Growth and Decomposition Analysis of Major Fruits Grown in Punjab
Authors: . Rohlupuii
Published: November 2024

Background: Punjab has been gifted with the suitable agro climatic conditions and topography for the cultivation of horticultural crops, particularly fruits and vegetables. Due to its easy cultivation on sandy loam soils, increased profitability and good market value in comparison to several other crops in the state, Punjab has gained popularity among fruit growers. Methods: The study was based on secondary data obtained on the basis of the largest area sown over the period of 13 years i.e., from 2010-11 to 2022-23. Statistical tools like Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR), instability index and decomposition analysis were used to analyze the trends in area, production and productivity of major fruits in Punjab. Result: Results revealed that growth rates of area, production and productivity had shown positive and significant in all the major fruits during the study period. The growth rate of area and production under kinnow was found to be lowest due to decline in area and production during the last three years. Cuddy-Della Valle Index indicates that fluctuations in area and production was found to be tremendously high under lemon and litchi. Decomposition analysis revealed that area under kinnow was the major contributing factor causing the change in production but it was the yield that played a major role in other fruits.

Published: November 2024

Background: Intensive use of artificial insemination is the demand of the present era, it deals with cryopreservation. During this process many changes, especially oxidative damages, which affect fertility and can be neutralized by supplementing some antioxidants. Methods: To conduct this study, a total of thirty-two ejaculates collected from four bulls were preliminary evaluated. Based on progressive motility and viability, qualified samples were processed for cryopreservation. Diluted ejaculates with Egg yolk tris glycerol (EYTG) were split into four aliquots and grouped as Group I: control (without lycopene), Group II, Group III and Group IV as treatment group with 0.25 mM, 0.5 mM and 1 mM lycopene respectively. Post-thaw evaluation for progressive motility, viability, plasma membrane integrity, capacitation status, motility and kinematics, in vitro cervical mucus penetration and antioxidative enzymes activity was performed. Result: The treatment group containing 0.25 mM lycopene showed significant (P less than 0.05) improvement in post-thaw sperm progressive motility (%), viability (%), HOS response (%), capacitation status (%), motility and kinematics (CASA), bovine cervical mucus penetration and antioxidant activity (SOD, GST, MDA). This study concluded that lycopene supplementation in bull semen protects spermatozoa from cryo-injury and oxidative stress during the freezing-thawing process.
Protective Role of Antioxidants in Cadmium-induced Reproductive Toxicity

Published: November 2024

Background: Studies on the role of oxidative stress in cadmium-induced reproductive toxicity have prompted numerous investigations into the use of antioxidants against reproductive toxicity. Natural compounds including curcumin and resveratrol have proven to be effective in mitigating oxidative damage. Ziziphus spina-christi (ZSC), is known for its abundance in antioxidant profile and has shown considerable protective effects against toxicity from heavy metals like cadmium. This current study seeks to uncover the mechanism behind which ZSC antioxidant properties protect against cadmium-induced reproductive toxicity. Methods: ZSC extract was prepared by harvesting, drying and processing the plant’s leaves. In-vivo experimental design was carried out, 24 rats were grouped in four groups: control group, ZSC treated group, Cadmium induced group and ZSC treated Cadmium induced group. To examine the oxidative stress, markers such as catalase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) were measured. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA, followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test to evaluate group differences. Result: Cadmium exposure led to a significantly decrease in catalase and SOD activities, alongside an increase in MDA levels, indicating an increased oxidative stress. Treatment with ZSC effectively restored these parameters towards normal levels, demonstrating its potent antioxidant activity. Interestingly, Females responded slightly better than males, suggesting a possible gender-specific effects. The observed reduction in cortisol levels further confirmed ZSC’s stress-reducing properties. These findings align with earlier studies on ZSC’s antioxidant and protective properties.

O ensino de ciências deve ser motivador em todas as fases do ensino fundamental. Para isso, é essencial que os educadores possuam sensibilidade para compreender as dificuldades de aprendizagem dos estudantes, adaptando suas estratégias para minimizar o insucesso escolar. O uso de modelos didáticos facilita significativamente o processo de aprendizagem, e uma alternativa inovadora é a utilização de fotografias. Dentro desta perspectiva, a partir de fotografias geradas ao longo de expedições científicas realizadas na Trilha do Tatu, criou-se um acervo que foi utilizado na estruturação de uma oficina pedagógica denominada “É o bicho!”, visando promover a conscientização e compreensão da biodiversidade de artrópodes do Cerrado. A oficina foi realizada em uma escola pública estadual, no município de Goiânia, Goiás, para uma turma do 7° ano do ensino fundamental. Observou-se que os estudantes possuíam um conhecimento superficial sobre animais invertebrados, e alguns estudantes foram capazes de fornecer exemplos de artrópodes. Também foi identificada a falta de conhecimento sobre as estruturas e divisão corporal de insetos e aracnídeos, além do desconhecimento sobre aracnídeos perigosos aos seres humanos. Ao final, a oficina demonstrou que o uso de fotografias e exemplares de artrópodes como recursos didáticos é uma estratégia promissora para despertar o interesse e a compreensão dos estudantes sobre a biodiversidade do Cerrado, proporcionando uma aprendizagem significativa.

A Toxoplasmose é uma zoonose de distribuição mundial causada pelo protozoário Toxoplasma gondii, a doença possui ciclo heteróxeno, onde o gato e outros felídeos são os únicos hospedeiros definitivos da enfermidade, enquanto o homem e outros animais endotérmicos são os hospedeiros intermediários. A doença é assintomática na maioria dos casos, porém quando contraída durante a gestação, pode apresentar sérios riscos ao feto. Considerando que o IBGE quantificou cerca de 13 mil gestantes adolescentes até os 17 anos no Maranhão no ano de 2017, que muitas estão em idade escolar e que bons níveis de educação e conhecimento, contribuem para uma população mais saudável, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar o nível conhecimento de estudantes de duas escolas públicas estaduais no município de São Luís, Maranhão. A pesquisa foi realizada durante os meses de dezembro de 2019 a fevereiro de 2020 e consistiu na aplicação de um questionário semiestruturado com perguntas relacionadas a hábitos de vida que podem levar à toxoplasmose e a conhecimentos específicos sobre a doença. O questionário foi aplicado juntamente a um termo de consentimento ou assentimento livre e esclarecido. A partir dos resultados obtidos, pôde-se notar que os estudantes entrevistados possuíam pouco ou nenhum conhecimento acerca da toxoplasmose e da toxoplasmose congênita, sendo assim necessária a implantação de medidas de educação em saúde pela comunidade acadêmica.

Suppose R is a commutative ring and H is a subset of R. The complement of the generalized total graph is a simple graph with all the elements in R as points and two different points x and y are directly connected if and only if x and y are not elements of H. This study aims to determine the general form of the VLRS index in the generalized total graph complement of the integer ring modulo 2p where p greater than or equal to 3 is the prime number for H the set of zero divisors and H the set of units of the ring integer modulo 2p. The steps in this study are to determine the set of zero divisors and the set of units of the integer ring modulo 2p, determine the distance of each point in the complement of the generalized total graph of the ring of integers modulo 2p, determine the reciprocal state in the complement of the generalized total graph of the ring integer modulo 2p, and determine the VLRS index in the complement of the generalized total graph from the integer ring modulo 2p. The results of this study are related to the general form of the VLRS index on the complement of the generalized total graph of the 2p modulo integer ring where p is a prime number and p is greater than or equal to 3 with H the set of zero divisors and H the set of units of the 2p modulo integer ring.

Fuzzy ELECTRE is one of the methods based on the concept of outranking and comparing alternatives based on each relevant criterion. Currently, the Indonesian government has several programs as poverty alleviation, one of which is providing PKH assistance. The results of the implementation and interpretation of the fuzzy ELECTRE method using TrFN weighting to decide PKH beneficiaries.  This method requires several processes, namely determining alternative decisions that are in accordance with the number of PKH beneficiaries, determining decision criteria, determining linguistic variables and giving values to each criterion based on the TrFN scale, determining the weight of the criteria based on the level of importance, determining the decision matrix, determining the normalized decision matrix, determining the weighting value on the normalized matrix entry, determining the concordance index, determining the calculation of concordance and discordance index values, determining the calculation of final concordance and discordance, and determining the ranking of the sum of the final concordance and discordance values. Thus, it can be shown that there are people who get the highest rank, namely alternatives 25,47,53,65,71,72,81,82 and 96 with a value of 184.90487 and people who get the lowest rank, namely alternative 79 with a value of -73.51765. So, this research can provide a higher level of accuracy and PKH assistance can be distributed on target.

K-Algebra is constructed on a group using binary operations ⊙ on (G,*), so for each x,y∈G defined as x⊙y=x*y^(-1)=xy^(-1) with certain axioms on K-Algebra. K-Group summation is defined as the elements of K that operate summation in K, similar to addition in K itself. Meanwhile, the K-Ring has two basic operations, namely addition and multiplication, both of which must satisfy certain properties and use the K-Field as a scalar field. Finally, the K-Field is described as a special K-Algebra structure in which the multiplication operation is distributive to the addition operation. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of structures and operations in K-Algebra. The next research is that K-Algebra can be applied in sets meaning that it can be applied to sets of numbers, dihedral, and modulo or congruence, which are equipped with theorems, proofs, and examples.

Fractional integral operator itself maps any real-valued function into the integral form  of the division of the at function. One of the expansion of fractional integral operator is generalized fractional integral operator. Morrey space is an extension of Lebesgue space. Morrey space is the set of all Lebesgue measurable functions, whose norm is finite over Morrey space. In this study, we will discuss the inequalities of the generalized fractional integral operator on a generalized non-homogeneous Morrey space. We proved of this inequality using the Chebyshev inequality and the Holder inequality.

Hypertension is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. This disease is often referred to as the silent killer because it can lead to death without noticeable symptoms, leaving those affected unaware of their condition. Therefore, early detection and management of hypertension are crucial. This research aims to obtain the classification of hypertension using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) method by utilizing various attributes such as age, smoking habits, lifestyle, blood pressure, and hypertension diagnosis, as well as determining the accuracy level of hypertension classification results using the SVM method. The SVM method is trained with various kernel parameters and hyperparameters to find the best model. The research findings indicate that the best model for classifying hypertension using the SVM method employs the RBF kernel with parameters = 100 and  (gamma) = 0,1, achieving an accuracy of 97.15%. This demonstrates that the SVM method is capable of classifying hypertension very well and significantly contributes to the early detection and management of hypertension.
