Preparation and Characterization of Gastroreten-tive Sustained Release In-situ Gel of Lafutidine
Authors: Malviya Vedanshu , Tawar Mukund , Burange Prashant , Bairagi Ritu
Published: December 2022

Background: The in-situ solutions, which float in the gastrointestinal region after gelation, is suited for long-term drug release. In this study, natural and synthetic polymers were used to try to build a Gastro-Retentive controlled release in-situ gel. To modulate the rate of drug distribution and increase bioavailability and stability, gastro-retentive controlled release in-situ gels were prepared. 

Materials and Methods: For this project, 32 factorial designs were chosen. The two independent variables were sodium alginate (X1) and the ratio of HPMC K100M: Gellan Gum (X2) was preserved at the same concentration. As the study mentioned, sodium alginate is a natural polymer that is employed to build the gel matrix, while HPMC K100M and gellan gum serve as release retardants. 

Results and Discussion: The drug and excipients study performed by FTIR and DSC revealed that both the drug and polymers used were compatible with other. Out of all the batches prepared LG7 proved to be the optimized batch because of the acceptable pH with a floating time of more than 24 hours and maximum drug content of 99.92 ± 0.04% and the lag time of 71 ± 0.57seconds. The viscosity of the optimized batch was found to be dependent on the concentration of sodium alginate and the viscosity before gelling and after gelling was found to be 32719 ± 1.65 and 39851 ± 1.77 cps. The mucoadhesion strength of the prepared optimized formulation was found to be 5.621 ± 0.41N/cm2. The optimized LG7 batch showed the most sustained rate of drug release with having a matrix model as the best-fitted model. The histopathology study revealed that the formulation was safe to use without causing any degeneration of the tissues. The stability study showed that the prepared formulation was stable for the time of the study as no significant changes were observed. Lastly, the sustained behavior of the prepared in-situ gel was due to the calcium carbonate in the gelling formulation which released carbon dioxide into the gastrointestinal environment, and the formulation became porous and buoyant, extending the residence period and the floating of the gel was due to the pH-induced ion gelation process that caused the gel to float.

Conclusion: It was concluded that the prepared controlled release in-situ gel of Lafutidine may prove to be a potential candidate for safe and effective controlled drug delivery for an extended period.
Comparative Study of Green Nano Synthesis of Versatile TiO2 with its Chemical Nano Synthesis – Application to Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Activity
Authors: S Shameem , A Nilufer , C Roumana
Published: December 2022

Background & Objective: Currently, Green synthesis/biosynthesis is a rapidly growing, advantageous method for nanoparticle synthesis and it inculcates interest among researchers. It has its own significance in the field of biomedical, industrial, pharmaceutical and other fields of science and technology. TiO2 has inimitable properties in the field of pharmaceutical/biomedical and industrial applications. Hence, the present facile study proposed to deal with the synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) through the chemical method and the green method. The synthesized samples are compared to prove the suitable methodology for synthesizing TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs). Methods: The TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized through a sophisticated chemical method. The green/biosynthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles was carried out using AdathodaVasica, Acalypha Indica and Annona squamosa leaf extract. Using the synthesized samples, the structural, morphological, optical, surface and antibacterial characteristics of synthesized nanoparticles were investigated using FTIR, XRD, EDAX, UV, PL, SEM and antibacterial analysis. Result: The FTIR spectra reveal the presence of a Ti-O bond. The structural characterization using XRD analysis confirms the crystalline size at the nano level. The bandgap energies were calculated through the UV spectrum and the photocatalytic behaviour of the TiO2 nanoparticle is further confirmed by the photoluminescence study. The SEM analysis pictures the morphology of TiO2 NP. The antibacterial study manifests the larger region of inhibition for the TiO2 NP obtained from the leaf extract. The results of the samples were compared and identified their efficiency. Conclusion: From the studies, it concludes that the green synthesized NPs are much more efficient than the chemically prepared sample. The green synthesized TiO2 NP is much more active than that obtained from the chemical method. The green synthesized TiO2 nanoparticles are more suitable for both industrial/photocatalytic and pharmaceutical applications.
CHAOS OF «HORIZONS OF EXPECTATIONS» IN F.M. DOSTOEVSKY'S NOVEL «THE POSSESSED»
Authors:   Leningrad Regional Branch of St. Petersburg University of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, Gorbarenko E.A.
Published: December 2022

The article offers a completely new perspective for Dostoevsky studies of the study of Dostoevsky's artistic creativity, specifically one of the novels of the «great five books» – the novel «The Prossessed». The concept of «horizons of expectations», which is used in the presented study, has received its justification within the framework of the receptive aesthetics of G.R. Jauss. In the works of Jauss, the main attention is paid to the peculiarities of the reader's perception of the text. In our study, we propose to expand the possibilities of this approach. Therefore, the concept of «horizon of expectations» is used by us in relation not only to the level of reader's perception of the text, but also to the «expectations» of the writer and the characters of the novel. For this purpose, draft versions of the text are involved, which help to trace the dynamics of the author's idea and, accordingly, the change of the «horizons of expectations» of the writer. Equally important is the analysis of the «horizons of expectations» of the most important characters, their change, mutual intersection or substitution. This allows, firstly, to rethink the plot roles of the main characters of the novel (Stepan Trofimovich Verkhovensky, Stavrogin, Pyotr Verkhovensky, Shatov, Kirillov), as well as a number of female characters, and, secondly, to expand the ideas available in Dostoevsky studies about the conceptual meaning of each artistic image in the novel as a whole.
MIMICRY AND THEATRICALITY: A FORMAL MODEL
Authors:   GITR Film & Television School, Pimonov V.I.
Published: December 2022

Object of the article: mimicry and theatricality. Subject of the article: difference and similarity between mimicry and theatricality. Purpose of the research: creating the semiotic model of transformation of mimicry into theatricality. Results: in mimicry, three meta-roles are at play: the mimic, the dupe and the model. The mimic imitates signals, emitted by the model. The dupe, being an enemy of the mimic, is thus deceived by the mimic's signals. Mimicry can be expressed by the scheme: “A” acts in front of “B” in the role of “C”, where “A” is the mimic, “B” is the dupe - a victim of deception, “C” is the model. Mimicry formally resembles theatricality, where "A" is the character of the play (functionally corresponding to the mimic), "B" is the character-spectator, corresponding to the dupe (victim of deception), "C" is another character, functionally corresponding to the "model". Even so, the difference between signals in mimicry and signs in theater is crucial. Field of application: semiotics, literary studies. Conclusions: The mimicry-to-theatricality transformation requires a real or imaginary border between the space of everyday life and “marked” territory (museum, houseof-worship, stage) that serves as a stop-signal inhibiting (or preventing) automatic actions.

Arreglos socioterritoriales diferenciales en la expansión del agronegocio en Argentina. Los casos de Río Cuarto y Malvinas Argentinas
Authors: Forlani Nicolás
Published: December 2022

La expansión y la consolidación del modelo de agronegocio experimentado en Argentina, ha conllevado profundas transformaciones socioespaciales, especialmente la renovada contigüidad/complementariedad entre lo urbano y lo rural. En el presente artículo, con base en un estudio de caso, divisamos que tales transformaciones socioespaciales no son homogéneas, dando lugar a configuraciones socioterritoriales diferenciales en las que ciertas localidades son dinamizadas por el circuito productivo del agronegocio globalizado, en tanto que otras permanecen escasamente asociadas a los fijos-flujos del modelo agrícola dominante. Ampliamos, en términos metodológicos, que las variables a contemplar constituyen los cambios en el uso del suelo y el tipo de explotaciones, las ramas industriales representativas de las redes de la agroindustria, la ocupación y condición según rama de actividad laboral, las infraestructuras y equipamientos urbanos.

Would the Professional Training Sector Take the Advantage of the Virtual Environment that Was Presented Forcefully by COVID-19?
Authors: Aloraibi Maitham , Karam Amira , AlSorani Amal
Published: December 2022

This applied research looks into the effectiveness of the virtual learning environment in the delivery of corporate and professional courses since the training provider was forced to shift to this mode of delivery since March 2020 due to the COVID-19 circumstances. 

In literature, the effectiveness of virtual delivery in the basic schooling and higher education sectors is well researched and heavily debated amongst scholars and practitioners, especially during this pandemic. This is not the case, however, in the professional and corporate training field as this sector is often regarded as a voluntary provision that warrants the least priority to invest in during a global crisis; the like of COVID-19. The purpose of the research is to measure the effectiveness of virtual training provision, and how this mode of learning can help in developing skills and supporting learning to achieving their learning objectives.  The effectiveness evaluation in this research was measured from the perspective of the end-user (the learner). 

The research involved a quantitative questionnaire that was answered by 367 respondents amongst trainees who were enrolled in various professional training courses, post COVID-19, in virtual mode. The questionnaire items were purposely designed to gauge the learners’ satisfaction as a measure of effectiveness and quality of the virtual training environment. The questionnaire was distributed and administered electronically via a mass emailing campaign. Upon collecting the responses, the data was quantitatively analysed using descriptive quantitative analysis. 

The analysis of the data indicates indeed high satisfaction rates amongst learners (more than 72% were satisfied, or higher). The effectiveness of virtual learning in helping trainees achieve their learning objectives and make good progress, however, was lower than the overall satisfaction rate. After months of riding the learning curve of the virtual learning experience, the learners showed mixed picture of reflection on their preferred mode of delivery in the future. Almost a third of the learners opted for blended learning mode, whereas nearly another third preferred virtual, and the remaining liked to go back to physical classes. 

This research indicates that virtual learning is apparently lending itself to be a feasible mode of delivery of professional training courses. Its effectiveness, as perceived by the beneficiaries, is proven to continue improve as it matures over time. The prospect of this virtual learning methodology looks positive indeed despite the newness of its application on a massive scale post the COVID-19 pandemic.
When Opportunities Are Turned into Threats
Authors: Ait Ouarasse Otmane , Gourani Mohamed Essaid
Published: December 2022

The present paper tests a long-overlooked aspect of the association between school management and student mental health. Specifically, the question asked is whether and to what extent quality of information services is associated with students’ feelings of loneliness. Research on this relationship is almost inexistent—most probably because of the rather narrow conceptual framework within which loneliness research has been carried out. The present study attempts to fill this gap by looking at loneliness from a different conceptual angle, that of alienation, and from there to test a couple of hypotheses: (i) the significance of the relationship between quality of information services and student loneliness and (ii) the protective role of quality of informal student networks. Data from 439 undergraduate students from a Moroccan institution of higher education were used for the purpose. Both hypotheses were confirmed. Quality of information services, which a sweeping majority of students (64.2%) rated as unsatisfactory, was negatively associated with feelings of loneliness (β = -.17**, p < .01). To test the protective role of quality of student networks, a moderation analysis was conducted. Quality of student networks proved a significant moderator. Results and implication for educational management and future research directions are discussed.
Accentuating School Infrastructural Amenities, Socio-Economic Goods and Services to Realize Quality Education in South Africa
Authors: Sefoka Isaiah Mmatipe
Published: December 2022

The paper examines how infrastructural amenities, socio-economic goods and services, play an active role in ensuring the realization of quality education. It is an undisputed fact that teaching and learning have now become an essential tool in shaping the right to access quality education. However, quality education cannot be realized if infrastructural amenities, socio-economic goods and services are not up to standard. The judiciary, through its pronouncements has also reiterated on the significance of having a learning environment that is conducive for effective teaching and learning. This paper showcases the importance of infrastructural amenities and socio-economic goods and services, as an integral part of the realization of quality education. In doing so, the paper adopted a non-empirical approach generally acceptable in legal research activities. It concludes that the right to education is inalienable and as such, it is incumbent on the government and institutions responsible for the delivery of education, to ensure that the right is promoted and provided for at all costs. The paper recommends that the government must improve infrastructural amenities, socio-economic goods and services in schools, to create a learning environment conducive to r the realization of quality education.
Sport universitaire au Maroc
Authors: HARFOUF Soulaiman , MADRANE Mourad
Published: December 2022

Ce travail traite de la question du Sport Universitaire (SU) au Maroc. Il adopte une problématique liée aux pratiques managerielles et à la gouvernance du SU dans les établissements marocains d’enseignement supérieur public. Il examine les facteurs responsables du dysfonctionnement de ce système et émet subséquemment une proposition susceptible de contribuer à l’amélioration de son rendement.  Afin de réaliser ce diagnostic, un système de recueil et d’analyse de données a été utilisé.  Une enquête de terrain a donc été menée dans 14 universités et 8 cités universitaires.  120 personnes-ressources ont été interviewées. 34 rapports, de contenus différents, ont par ailleurs fait l’objet d’un examen approfondi et guidé.

Les résultats mettent en évidence que le SU marocain souffre d’un manque plus ou moins important, en nombre et en qualité, de ressources humaines, financières, matérielles et infrastructurelles. D’autre part, l’organisation déficiente, l’absence de stratégies de gestion de l’existant, l’omission de l’évaluation régulière du secteur, la faible motivation   et le   défaut   d’engagement des   acteurs   administratifs   et associatifs marquent la démarche managériale du SU dans la majorité d’établissements d’enseignement et de la vie universitaire.
The Virgin’s heavenly rapture as a theme in Yaroslavl art of the late 17th and early 18th centuries
Authors:   Yaroslavl Art Museum, Makarova Ekaterina Yu.
Published: December 2022

In its heydays, Yaroslavl art expanded its range of literary sources. The composition of Ioanniky Galyatovsky “Nebo Novoe” (“New Heaven”) was very popular. The miracle of St Thomas Becket of Canterbury, in which the Virgin tells him of her rapture in Heaven, became an iconographic subject. In Yaroslavl art this theme can be found in several versions, both in icons and in monumental painting. It is believed that the theme appeared and was developed in the school of Yaroslavl icon painter Feodor Ignatiev. Currently, this plot has not been identified in other centres of art.

This statement can be attached to Surikov’s creative activity as well. Unfortunately, the researchers of Surikov’s works have to realize that painter’s secluded lifestyle obviously led to an insufficient number of letters and memoirs. The information on the Polish artist Jan Matejko is more extensive though he also was a recluse in his life. The author of the article pays special attention to Italy, and its role in private and artistic life of Surikov and Matejko. Both represented Slavonic culture, both were adherents to historical painting, and, moreover, had much in common as for their tempers, existential and creative principles.

Authors:   St Petersburg Repin Academy of Fine Arts, Arutyunyan Julia I.
Published: December 2022

The creative heritage of the Venetian Cosroe Dusi accumulated all the leading artistic styles of the second quarter –middle of the 19th century. Working in Italy, Munich and St Petersburg, the painter created intimate and formal portraits. His historical canvases have absorbed the features of classicism and romanticism with special interest in medieval history. The few landscapes of Cosroe Dusi are close to the romantic concept of spiritualized nature. In sketches from nature and drawings, the influence of the academic art education system is obvious. He also created a number of monumental works in St Isaacʼs Cathedral, and his technique and iconographic solutions indicate an interest in the Russian national tradition. Academic training, classicism, romanticism, historicism are mixed in Dusi’s heritage in complex stylistic dialogue.

Stylistic Symbiosis as the Basis of the Artistic Method of Efim Chestnyakov
Authors:   Museum of Russian Lubok and Naive Art, Artamonova Maria M.
Published: December 2022

The article traces the connection between the iconographic system of Efim Vasilievich Chestnyakov’s artworks and the Northern European Romantic tradition of the late 19th century, in particular the artworks by the Swedish artist Vicken von Post Börjeson Totten. The researcher concludes that the themes of Chestnyakov’s works are based on the folklore and ethnography of his native Kologriv region, and his visual method is rooted in the principles of neo-romantic art. These two lines are connected through the primitivist approach that is chosen as a vector of a creative path. This approach gives rise to stylistic symbiosis which becomes the basis of the author’s artistic method.
