Authors: Jalilvand Tahereh , Salarinia Reza , Namdar Ahmadabad Hasan , Safdari Mohammadreza
Published: July 2021

Background: The expression pattern of microRNAs in placenta-derived exosomes plays a crucial role in the regulation of immune responses and inflammation at the fetal–maternal interface.
Objective: Considering the immunomodulatory properties of miR-17 and miR-29a, we determined their expression levels in placenta-derived exosomes in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced abortion mice model.
Materials and Methods: A total of 14 pregnant BALB/c mice, aged 6–8 wk, were randomly divided into two groups (n = 7/each) on the gestational day 11.5. While the mice in the experimental group were treated with LPS, those in the control group were treated with Phosphate buffered saline; 5 hr after the treatment, the placental cells were isolated and cultured for 48 hr. Then, the cell culture supernatants were collected and used for isolation of exosomes. The isolated exosomes were confirmed by western blot and scanning electron microscopy. The miRNAs were then extracted from exosomes, and cDNA synthesized. The expression levels of miR-17 and miR-29a were evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR analysis.
Results: Our results showed that the expression levels of miR-29a in placenta-derived exosomes obtained from the experimental group increased significantly compared to the control group. Also, the expression levels of miR-17 in the placenta-derived exosomes obtained from the experimental group were found to decrease; however, it did not show significant changes compared with the control group (p ˃ 0.05).
Conclusion: Inflammatory reactions at the fetal–maternal interface can alter miRNAs expression patterns in placenta-derived exosomes, especially miRNAs with immunomodulatory effects such as miR-29a.
Key words: Exosome, miR-17, miR-29a, Placenta, Inflammation.

Background: Small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs) are chromosomal fragments with abnormal structures found in patients with fertility problems and developmental delay. They may be detected in amniotic cell karyotypes. sSMCs are categorized as hereditary or de novo. Here, we describe a case of prenatal de novo 4q11q12 sSMC and its molecular cytogenetic features which had no apparent phenotypic abnormality.
Case: The fetus of a 36-yr-old pregnant woman was detected positive for Down’s syndrome (trisomy 21) at the 16th wk of gestation. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction technique was applied for the rapid detection of numerical aneuploidy of chromosomes X, Y, 13, 18, and 21 microsatellites. Array comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) technique was also conducted following the karyotype analysis of amniotic cells. The karyotype analysis was also done for the parents. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction result revealed a male fetus with a normal chromosomal pattern, while the amniocentesis karyotype analysis identified a male fetus with a marker chromosome (47, XY, +mar), and the sSMC were existing in 100% of amniocyte metaphase spreads. The parents’ normal karyotypes indicated that the sSMC was de novo. Array CGH analysis revealed a 6.48-Mb duplication at 4q11q12. Eventually, the parents decided to terminate the pregnancy by legal abortion.
Conclusion: Our study highlights the importance of the application of array CGH in combination with karyotype analysis for rapid and precise prenatal diagnosis of partial aneuploidy region.

Authors: Azouma KOMBIEN Hervé , M’Bouaré KOMBIENI Frédéric
Published: July 2021

In view of the profound changes that have taken place in agriculture, rice has become a major consumer crop. Thus, in addition to its important role in food security, rice is increasingly being transformed into small-scale by-products that are still poorly understood and marketed. The objective of this research is to study the process of transformation and commercialization of rice products in the township of Natitingou.

The methodological approach adopted consists essentially of collecting data from 78 actors, mainly processors and traders of rice derivatives, processing the data and analyzing the results obtained using the SWOT model.

The analysis of the results revealed that the process of processing rice derivatives in Natitingou takes into account the parboiling of rice during its transformation, the transformation of parboiled rice into a derived food product, the hygiene rules observed in the processing room and the fermentation of rice flour for consumption. Nearly 80% of those surveyed said that rice derivatives are processed with archaic tools, and marketing is not very profitable. Despite this situation, rice processing has made it possible to obtain several by-products such as cookies, cakes, akpan, and even tchoucoutou or tchapkalo, etc. Finally, the marketing of these products is done through the marketing used by the groups, the strategies of sale and distribution price of the products derived from rice, the publicity and means of communication for the sale of these products.
The Process of Musical Interpretation and the Play-Element in Music
Authors: Kashyrtsev Ruslan
Published: July 2021

The article is devoted to examination of such phenomenon as musical interpretation, which incorporates various aspects of composer’s and performer’s creativity, listener’s perception, different styles of musical art, creative communication in music. The attempt to find the traits of the play-element in the process of musical interpretation may help to define the mechanisms, through which “play” activity in music in general is realized. Systematic approaches of scholars of the play-element and theorists of artistic interpretation present great possibilities to conduct such a research.

Examination of theoretical points of view on beforementioned problems allowed to reach a conclusion that the play-element is inherent to the music and is expressed in the process of interpretation. This happens in the framework of the system “composer – performer – sound director – listener”, in which artistic interpretation plays a significant role.

Shareholders’ Lawsuit in Georgian Legislation and Case Law
Authors: Jinoria Khatuna
Published: July 2021

Obtaining shares in a joint stock company grants the owner important rights and imposes several obligations on them. In the list of shareholders’ rights, one of the most important subjects is the right to sue the shareholder’s lawsuit. The right to bring in front of courts certain aspects of company-related activities is the legal mechanism of protecting the shareholders other rights. Shareholders’ lawsuit plays an important role in the protection of minority shareholders. Shareholders’ lawsuit also includes two types of legal actions: direct lawsuit and derivative lawsuit. Georgian case law is not very advanced in this area. When shareholders bring matters in front of courts, the number of precedents adhered to is rare. As for the derivative lawsuit, the relative novelty of this legal institution in Georgian legislation causes the lack of deeper understanding. Georgian doctrine does not provide thorough analysis of legal nature and divergence of shareholders’ lawsuits when it comes to case law. As mentioned above, it is quite scarce.

Book Review: Author: Al Khanif; Title: Religious Minorities, Islam, and The Law: International Human Rights and Islamic Law in Indonesia; Publisher: Routledge, 2021
Authors: Hara Abubakar Eby
Published: July 2021

This book examines religious minority rights in Islam in Indonesia from the international and local human rights perspectives. Its main contribution lies in the effort to find Indonesia's uniqueness in managing minority rights in religion. This study leads the author to a rich discussion of how international human rights through its activists spread the need for freedom of every citizen and how advocates of religious orthodoxy ​​respond to it. In contrast to analysts who use the dichotomous view of the acceptance or rejection of international human rights values, the author sees complexity in the process of spreading these values. It can be said that there is a process of modifying the values ​​of secularism in human rights and localization to make these values ​​an integral part of society. In this line of view, the author calls the Indonesian state a quasi-theistic secular state which means that Indonesia is a secular country but friendly and tries to guarantee freedom of religion and worship. In the case of minority rights in Islam, the state prioritizes harmony in society and supports the orthodox views of the majority. The minority view must be assimilated with the orthodox teachings of Islam to get a place to live. The quasi-theistic secular state continues to experience contestation and has undergone a long construction process based on the narration of the peaceful entry of Islam and the relatively moderate character of Indonesian Islam. At a certain level, this state concept has developed to be an identity and norms that become a reference for how to treat religious minorities. The author thus succeeded in showing that Indonesia is an example of a country that can develop its own identity and norms of religious life that are different from that of the Western secular state system.

O artigo tem como objetivo identificar se as ideias do pastor Ronilso Pacheco e do rapper Emicida dialogam com as chaves interpretativas do pensamento social negro. Para tal, serão mobilizados livros do pastor, assim como entrevistas concedidas por Emicida ao jornal Le Monde Diplomatique Brasil em 2018 e ao programa “Roda Viva”, da TV Cultura, em 27 de julho de 2020, buscando identificar a relação que ambos estabelecem com o pensamento negro brasileiro e suas reflexões sobre o Brasil contemporâneo. Quanto à metodologia adotada, serão realizadas discussões bibliográficas nos dois segmentos iniciais do trabalho, além de uma análise de discurso para as entrevistas de Emicida. Com isso, visa-se destacar novos horizontes de interpretação da realidade, contribuindo para a formulação de diferentes possibilidades analíticas e investigativas sobre a sociedade brasileira, fazendo emergir e ressoar as vozes de sujeitos historicamente invisibilizados e marginalizados pelas narrativas oficiais e hegemônicas. Procuramos demonstrar as interlocuções entre os autores selecionados e o fazer social, entendendo a necessidade de “enegrecer” as políticas públicas e de pautar a compreensão do mundo social a partir de perspectivas descolonizadas e fundadas na e a partir da experiência negra.
Moral das senzalas versus luta por direitos
Authors: Sousa Juliana
Published: July 2021

Este artigo discute as relações de trabalho doméstico remunerado no Brasil contemporâneo, partindo da proposta analítica de compreender o entrelaçamento das relações sociais de gênero, raça e classe. Associando-se à persistente divisão sexual do trabalho, o racismo estrutural e a luta de classes têm produzido um quadro de acentuada desigualdade social. Como uma das expressões mais sensíveis desta desigualdade, a existência de um contingente que ultrapassava as 6 milhões de trabalhadoras domésticas no país, em 2019, das quais 61,6% são mulheres negras e somente 28,2% contavam com o registro na carteira de trabalho. A partir de dados estatísticos das últimas décadas, o estudo aponta um perfil do trabalho doméstico remunerado, como a expansão da modalidade de diarista, mantida à margem das recentes conquistas no plano normativo, estabelecidas na Emenda Constitucional nº 72/2013 e na Lei Complementar nº 150/2015.

Background: Based on the duration and intensity of the exercise, sports can b classified into two types: endurance and non endurance (strength and power). Endurance sports is a high risk sport with low diet quality, nutritional status (body mass index (BMI) and body fat percentage), and haemoglobin level. Objectives: The aimed of this study is to analyze the differences of diet quality, nutritionl status, and haemoglobin level of female adolescent athletes in endurance  and non endurance sports. Methods: An observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted on 23 endurance athletes and 21 non endurance athletes in BBLOP Central Java, UNNES swimming and athletic sports club, and Salatiga atlhetic sports club. Subjects were selected by purposive sampling. BMI and body was measured by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (Tanita DC-360). Haemoglobin level was assessed by cyanmethemoglobin method. Diet quality was measured by semi quantitative food frequency questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) and diet quality index-international (DQI-I) form. Data was analyzed by independent t-test and Mann-Whitney. Results: The majority of nutritional status based on BMI and perventage body fat in endurance and non endurance athlete were normal. About 9,5% of non endurance athlete had anemia. There were significant difference in diet quality (p=0,029) and variety of protein source, iron, vitamin C, and empty calorie foods intake (p<0,001; p=0,028; p=0,045; p<0,001) of endurance and non endurance athletes, but no significant difference in body fat percentage (p=0,573) and haemoglobin level (p=0,714).  Conclusion: There were significant difference on diet quality, variety of protein source, iron, vitamin C, and empty calorie foods intake between endurance and non endurance athletes.
The effect of the YouTube subscriptions button in the real-world and cyberspace
Authors: Lapalelo Putra Aditya
Published: July 2021

The virtual subscribe button feature on the YouTube platform, which is only the smallest technological element in cyberspace, has turned into a technology capable of dominating interactions in cyberspace and the real world. This growing influence cannot be separated from the subscribe button's function, which is increasingly changing, not just running a function to subscribe to the YouTube channel. Technically, this key determinism has turned into something very social to become a means of moving community groups to influence the economy, politics, social and culture. That can be seen from the results of observations of eight informants who are YouTube users. The eight informants acknowledged the subscribe button's existence, which has influenced social and economic interactions on social media in the last decade. Although several informants also pointed out that humans' role is still visible in the development of the subscriber button as one of the most crucial features in social media, YouTube, and the internet as a whole.
Embodiment Principles of Clearing Justice in Consumer Arbitration
Authors: Agus Azwir
Published: July 2021

The realization of the principle of justice in proving the settlement of consumer disputes through arbitration in Indonesia is equally important. Undeniable, there is a weakness of the consumer protection law, both substantial norms and formal law. This article is normative legal research that refers to norms and legal principles in the legislation or court decisions. The results show that the proof is one of the trials that plays an important role. In general, the verification system is distinguished based on civil law and common law understandings influenced by various proof system theories such as the presumption of liability principle adopted in the Indonesian consumer protection law. The principle of justice in the consumer arbitration system is different from the arbitration verification system that is universally applicable in Indonesia. The ultimate goal of choosing consumer arbitration is to get substantial justice that is more dignified and not just obtaining formal justice.
DETERMINATION OF THE MAXIMUM VOLTAGE AT THE PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER PLANT CONNECTION POINT
Authors: Bazylevych Mykola Volodymyrovych
Published: July 2021

The modes of the electrical network have not been calculated for the photovoltaic power plants if they are used for small and medium-sized applications. It is known that the voltage at the point of installation of a photovoltaics power plant may exceed the critical limit voltage and as a result it may cause the emergency with the electrical equipment. According to the existing methods, it is possible to find the voltage only by full electrical network modes calculating. In practice such calculation is not convenient, especially for 0.4 kV distribution networks. The suggestion is to find the most probable limit voltage at the point of installation of a photovoltaic power plant without calculating the mode of the electrical network using instead the information about the voltage value in the power supply centre. The voltage at the installation point of the photovoltaic power plant mainly depends on the generated power of the photovoltaics power plant, line resistance, load power connected to a voltage of 0.4 kV and bus voltages of 0.4 kV of the power supply. The voltage hardly depends on the power of the power transformer, the parameters of 10 kV lines and the parameters of 0.4 kV lines, except for the line "power centre–photovoltaic power plant". The highest voltage at the point of installation of the photovoltaics power plant will be in the case when the load on the line is absent. The suggested methods allow finding analytically the maximum value of voltage at the point of installation of a photovoltaic power plant without using of the successive approximations methods. As a rule the photovoltaics power plant operates in the mode of delivery of the maximum active power. By the range of various analytical formulas, the value of voltage at the point of installation of a photovoltaic power plant has been determined. The accuracy of finding the voltage by different formulas has also been determined. It is established that in order to achieve the required accuracy, the dependence of the current at the output of the photovoltaics power plant on the voltage at the connection point should be taken into account. Modification of formulas for the purpose of simplification of their application is considered. The conditions for finding the maximum possible voltage value at the point of installation of a photovoltaics power plant are considered. This requires that the argument of the voltage drop vector on the line be equal to the argument of the voltage vector on the busbars of the power supply. This is achieved by the fact that the photovoltaic power plant generates active and reactive power in a certain ratio. It is shown the inexpediency of finding the maximum possible voltage value at the point of installation of a photovoltaic power plant due to a small difference with the most possible voltage value with a significant complication of calculations.
ANALYSIS OF ELECTRICAL LOAD SCHEDULES OF 10/0.4 KV TRANSFORMER SUBSTATIONS OF RESIDENTIAL AREAS FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF STATIONARITY PLOTS
Authors: Shcherbak Iryna , Kovalova Yuliia , Korobka Volodymyr
Published: July 2021

It is proposed on the electrical load graphs of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV in residential areas to allocate the stationarity areas for further modelling of load schedules and the implementation of controlling influences on the modes of consumers-regulators in order to align the overall graph of the electrical load. The relevance and complexity of the problem under consideration is caused by the fact that the load variation of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV in residential areas occurs randomly. This is due to the significant number, nomenclature and diversity of types of connected consumers, as well as the lack of deterministic connections between consumers of electricity, in addition, the random load function in the daily interval is non-stationary. In this regard, there was a need to develop the stages of selecting the areas of stationarity on the electrical load graphs of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV of residential areas. A measurement of the load graphs of 10/0,4 kV transformer substations is carried out, according to the results of which the distribution law of active and reactive power measurements is investigated. After confirming the hypothesis of normal distribution law, parametric tests are performed. Fisher's F-criterion is used to confirm the hypothesis of a constant variance, and Student's t-criterion is used to confirm the hypothesis of a constant mathematical expectation. The next stage, based on constancy of the variance and mathematical expectation, is the determination of autocorrelation coefficients of the studied random function and plotting of the autocorrelation function. To approximate the function the autocorrelation coefficients are determined by the least squares method and the autocorrelation function attenuation analysis is performed. The implementation of the defined stages allows to identify the areas of stationarity on the load graphs of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV. For a reliable description of the process of changing the load of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV the use of probabilistic-statistical method of modelling is justified that takes into account the stochastic nature of the load changes on the selected areas of stationarity.

Published: July 2021

O presente artigo analisa as decisões jurisprudenciais do Supremo Tribunal Federal no tocante ao combate à pandemia da COVID-19 no Brasil. Enfoca desafios enfrentados pela Corte Suprema no conflito entre Poderes, na falta de concertação interfederativa e também no tocante aos critérios de cientificidade dos parâmetros utilizados nas medidas. Aborda o debate da responsabilização dos agentes públicos nos atos associados com a pandemia e a exigência de publicidade na divulgação dos boletins epidemiológicos pelo Ministério da Saúde. Também será analisada a proteção de dados pessoais e o controle da COVID-19. Por fim, haverá a exposição da decisão do Supremo Tribunal Federal que vedou a produção e a circulação da campanha “o Brasil não pode parar”, a qual entrava em conflito com as orientações de isolamento e de distanciamento social na ascendente da curva de contágio no Brasil. Espera-se, a partir do emprego de pesquisa qualitativa, baseada no estudo da jurisprudência, demonstrar que o Supremo Tribunal Federal teve um papel fundamental para afastar obscurantismos, opacidades e o arbítrio infundado cientificamente, sendo que, não fosse as decisões abordadas, o Brasil poderia ter vivido um caos ainda maior em termos de contágio e de número de mortes ocasionadas pela doença.

Published: July 2021

Uma abordagem etnometodológica foi adotada para analisar as imagens que orientam a prática policial comunitária de uma Unidade Operacional da Polícia Militar de Minas Gerais. Utilizou-se a pesquisa documental, entrevistas com policiais e gestores, pesquisa em rede social de interações virtuais entre policiais e comunidade e observação participante de práticas policiais no programa Rede de Vizinhos Protegidos. Estudos de gestão da segurança pública e teoria social fundamentam a pesquisa. Os resultados mostram que as dicotomias entre policiamento tradicional e policiamento comunitário – repressivo e preventivo – produzem imagens fraturadas da polícia e dos civis que orientam a prática policial. Os criadores e impositores de regras que definem “os de dentro” e “os de fora” da comunidade, por meio dos estigmas sociais, personificam o medo do “Outro” no trabalho policial, bem como as imagens do policial, temido e amigo, e as imagens do cidadão, “de bem” e “bandidos”.
Formal differentiated approach to managing women with stress urinary incontinence
Authors: Fedorova Daria
Published: July 2021

ABSTRACT

The object of research: treatment of women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI).

Investigated problem: substantiation of the choice of treatment methods in the management of women of different ages with SUI depending on the urogynecological status, age, financial capabilities, risk of complications and speed of achieving the desired result.

The main scientific results: An approach has been developed to substantiate the most rational method of treatment of women of different ages with SUI, taking into account the provision of an adequate standard of living. It is based on the use of hierarchy analysis, which allows to determine the priorities between competing treatments - mid-urethral sling (MUS), pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) and containment (absorbent pads). The expediency of applying a formal differentiated approach is confirmed by the results of questionnaires of representative groups of women on the technology of UDI-6 and IIQ-7 questionnaires before and after treatment. It is recommended to choose a rational method of treatment or a set of treatment methods personally depending on the urogynecological status, age, financial capabilities, risk of complications and speed of achieving the desired result. MUS has gained the highest number of points due to the short time of treatment and rehabilitation, long-term postoperative effect, accessibility, low level of complications and significant improvement of life quality in young and elderly women. The most rational method of treatment of middle-aged patients with SUI is the method of PFMT as one that has a positive impact on the life quality of women and does not require financial costs.

The area of practical use of the research results: medical institutions providing urogynecological care to women.

Innovative technological product: development of a formal differentiated approach to the management of women with SUI, which allows to choose the most rational method of treatment taking into account the life quality.

Scope of the innovative technological product: clinical practice of treatment of women with SUI.

Published: July 2021

The boron active belite cement is a cement type different from the Portland Cement due to the presence of B2O3 at 3–4%. The prominent properties are low hydration temperature, low early strength, and high final strength for the boron active belite cement concrete. The aim of this study is to observe self-compacting concrete properties, which includes boron active belite cement and silica fume, at the high temperatures. Withal, the cement types were decided as CEM I, CEM II, and boron active belite cement. Some mechanical and durability properties of manufactured samples were also investigated, experimentally. The samples were designed for 0.35 water/binder ratio and 2% hyper plasticizer, while the silica fume is replaced 7.5% for cement. Some rheological properties of self-compacting concrete, such as the experiments of flow diameter, flow time (t50), V-flow time, L-box and J-ring were observed at fresh stage. As high temperature related parameters, the samples were planned to be tested for 100, 200, 300, 400, 600 and 750°C, to acquire the compressive strength, tensile splitting strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and the unit weight. All the samples met the mentioned relevant criteria of self-compacting concrete. Withal, the presence of the boron active belite cement was enhanced by the flowability of the fresh concrete. The long time resulting compressive and splitting tensile strengths of the samples, which were produced with boron active belite cement implied greater values, then the CEM I and CEM II ones. The increasing high-temperature, decreased the strengths for all samples, and weight loss for the boron active belite cement used samples.
Modelling the Migration of Anthropogenic Pollution from Active Municipal Landfill in Groundwaters
Authors: CIUŁA Józef
Published: July 2021

Landfill requires a systematic monitoring of its impact on groundwater and surface waters. The paper presents the modeling of pollution migration for cases when leachate penetrates the aquifer layer. For this purpose, a conceptual hydrodynamic model of the aquifer was developed in the program Visual ModFlow Pro, which is a spatial two-layer model. Chloride ion was used as an indicator defining the rate of pollution migration. The results of calculations and modeling of pollution migration in soil-water conditions demonstrated that it is practically impossible for pollutants to penetrate the aquifer, since a sufficient protection is provided by artificial insulation and a layer of sandy clays. A potential pollution migration to groundwater can only occur after a rupture – damage to the insulation layer. In such a case, vertical infiltration will be taking place in the 4aeration zone for a relatively long period, while the migration of pollutants already in the saturation zone (hydrated) will be taking place at a relatively high speed.

The study’s relevance relates to the transformation of the human capital reproduction during the transition to a new socio-economic model and changes (digitalization, cyberization, customization, etc.) that are now taking place within Industries 4.0 and 5.0. The purpose of the study is to formulate the content and key directions of learning processes based on modeling and the formation of digital twins for the production and consumption of goods. The research method is based on the analysis of structural links in socio-economic systems, where the potential of human capital is realized. The study describes a trialectic model for the system development mechanism, which gives grounds to distinguish three types of essential components of implementing the specialists’ competencies (material, information, and communication). Based on the concept of “system of systems”, the necessity of multifunctional training of specialists for socio-economic systems is substantiated and shown on the list of personal knowledge/skills in the renewable energy sector. Recent trends in the reproduction of human capital, such as intellectualization, increased communication, internationalization, acquisition of skills, customization, and communication with consumers, are stated in line with Industries 4.0 and 5.0. The potential for future research is aimed at harmonizing relations between humans and cyber-physical systems, motivating the needs for self-development, and using disruptive technologies in the reproduction of human capital.

Study on the Awareness, Perception, and Willingness to Participate in Covid-19 Vaccine Trials Among Adults in FCT-Abuja, Nigeria
Authors: Adams Christie Omolola
Published: July 2021

The Corona Virus Disease 19 (COVID-19) Is The Greatest Threat To Public Health In Recent Times. It Has Infected Over 40 Million People Globally, Having An Untoward Economic Impact On Many Nations. A Global Race To Find A Safe And Effective Vaccine Is Ongoing, But Controversies Exist Over The Conduct Of The Vaccine Trials Among The African Population. We Assessed The Awareness, Perceptions Of, And Willingness To Participate In The Anticipated COVID-19 Vaccine Trials Among Adults In The Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nigeria. Method: We Used A Web-Based Cross-Sectional Correlational Survey And A Purposive Quota Sampling Technique To Select 478 Respondents. Results: 65.2% Were Aware Of The Anticipated COVID-19 Vaccine Trials, 73% Had Positive Perceptions About It, 63.1% Expressed Fear About It, 46% Are Not Willing To Participate In The Trials, And 65.2% Will Not Recommend The Trials To A Family Or Friend. The Correlation Between Perception And Willingness To Participate In The Trial Was Positive And Low (R=0.043, P<0.667). Sex, Age, Religion, Area Councils Were Significantly Associated With Willingness To Participate In The Trials. (P-Values 0.001, 0.003, 0.001 And 0.001 Respectively). The Primary Sources Of Information About The Trials Include Church/Mosque, Family, Healthcare Providers, And Friends. Conclusion: There Is A High Level Of Awareness Of The COVID-19 Vaccine Trials; Perceptions Of The Trial Are Positive, But Most People Are Afraid And Will Neither Participate Nor Recommend The Trials To Significant Others. We Recommend A Targeted Psychosocial Intervention To Increase Participation In The Trial And Future COVID-19 Vaccine Uptake.
Trends in Diarrhoeal Diseases, City of Bulawayo Clinics, 2007-2012

Published: July 2021

Diarrhoeal Diseases Are A Public Health Concern And Constitute About 5% Of All Main Causes Of Out-Patient Department Visits In The City Of Bulawayo. We Conducted A Dataset Analysis Of Diarrhoeal Diseases To Determine How The Trends Have Varied Over The Years. A Descriptive Cross-Sectional Study Based On An Electronic Database For Diarrhoeal Diseases (2007-2012) Was Conducted. Data Was Collected Using Compilation Forms And Checklists, Then Analysed Using Microsoft Excel. Three Key Informants Were Interviewed. The Formula, (Mean + 1.5SD), Was Used To Calculate Thresholds For Bloody Diarrhoea. There Were More Watery Than Bloody Diarrhoeal Cases Throughout The Review Period, With 2008 Having The Highest Number Of Such Cases Under 5. In Northern Suburbs, There Was A General Decrease In Both Types Of Diarrhoea Cases In Both Age Groups (<5 And >5) Whilst In Emakhandeni; There Was An Increase In Bloody Diarrhoea Incidence After 2009. The Incidence Rate For Bloody Diarrhoea Was Higher For Females Throughout. There Was An Increase In The Number Of Stool Specimens Collected For Examination Between 2008 And 2012. Overall, There Was A Decrease In The Incidence Of Diarrhoea In Bulawayo City, Partly Due To Regular Anti-Diarrhoeal Campaigns. Following The Study, The Following Measures Were Implemented: Health Education To Improve Hygienic Practices; Advocacy For Improved Water And Sanitation In Cowdray Park; Rotavirus Vaccination For Under-Fives; Maintenance Of All Records On Diarrhoea And Up To Date Thresholds In All Clinics For Use In Monitoring Diarrhoea.
Demographic Variables and Self-Management Practices as Correlates of Glycemic Control among Reproductive Age Diabetic Women in a Tertiary Hospital in Ile-Ife, Osun State, Nigeria
Authors: Opele Jacob Kehinde
Published: July 2021

Glycemic Control Remains A Major Cornerstone In The Management Of Diabetes Mellitus. Despite Consistent Studies, The Incidence Of Both Short-And Long-Term Complications Of Diabetes Had Been Quite Alarming. This Study Employed A Descriptive Design. A Total Enumeration Of 185 Diabetic Women Of Reproductive Age Constituted The Sample Size. A Self-Structured Questionnaire With 40 Items Divided Into Five Sections And A Checklist For Recording Glycemic Control Were Used For Data Collection. The Data Analysis Involves The Use Of Statistical Package For Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 23. Results Were Presented As Frequencies, Mean And Standard Deviation, And Regression Analysis. The Findings From The Study Revealed That 112 (67.1%) Of The Women Had Normal Glycemic Status While 55 (32.9%) Had High Status. Furthermore, It Revealed A Significant Negative Correlation Between Educational Qualification And Glycemic Control (R = -.161, P= 0.049). The Study Revealed A Slight Significant Correlation Between Diet And Glycemic Control (R = -.148, P=0.052). Other Practices Did Not Share A Significant Correlation With Glycemic Control. The Study Concluded That An Appreciable Percentage Of The Respondents Had High Glycemic Control Status, Education And Diet Had A Significant Partial Correlation With Glycemic Control. Most Of The Women Had Good Practice Of Diet, Exercise, Medication, And Self-Monitoring Of Blood Glucose As Shown In Their Health Records. However, A Sharp Contrast Exists Between Their Record Of Glycemic Control, Which Was Good, And The Current Level, Which Revealed No Significant Correlations Between Self-Management Practices And Glycemic Control. Hence, The Need For More Patient Education On Self-Management Practices.
Critiquing Child characters as Heroes, Villains, and Victims in Ru Freeman’s On Sal Mal Lane
Authors:   Department of Languages, Manipal University Jaipur, Rajasthan, India, Choudhary Sneha Choudhary , Chaudhary Priyanka
Published: July 2021

Social behaviour and filial background define the formation and development of a character that is bound by cultural influence in South Asian fiction. Ru Freeman weaves numerous characters and their stories in a single lane as a synecdoche of Sri Lankan history. On Sal Mal Lane (2014) showcases the different social groups defining Sri Lankan conflict in the 1980s with the presence of child characters who are unaware of the extent of the ethnic conflict swirling in the background of the narrative. This paper tries to define the concepts of heroes, villains, and victims through the socio-emotional development of the characters to determine the contradiction between their intentions and subsequent actions. The study uses Character Theory and elements of Affect Control Theory for critical analysis. The paper analyses the change in personality traits of child characters in response to the violence wrought by Sri Lankan ethnic prejudices and the extent of destructive development from the unstable familial and societal environments.
How Hercules cleans up the Augean stables: differentiated implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive

Published: July 2021

Realising the goals of the European Union (EU) Water Framework Directive is difficult. The differentiation of water policies according to local conditions enjoys increasing attention and may be necessary to achieve good ecological status in all European waters. This paper seeks to explore to what extent and how local water quality determines the degree of coercion, i.e. the extent to which differentiated policies are voluntary or rather imposed upon policy addressees, of spatially differentiated water policies. It does so on the basis of seven cases in five EU Member States. For highly polluted waters, spatially differentiated policies tend either to make the use of authoritative policy instruments, i.e. coercion by way of formal regulation, or to rely on the threat to introduce such regulation. For preventing the deterioration of relatively ‘clean’ waters, voluntary instruments based on information and persuasion dominate, often supported by subsidies and/or the direct input of public resources. In relation to the spatial differentiation of water policies, issues of data demand, equality and legitimacy have to be taken into account.
