Materiales y métodos. La población fue constituida por 100 órganos dentales molares maxilares y mandibulares, capturados de 52 tomografías, de pacientes masculinos y femeninos de edades entre 15 y 30 años; y 31 y 46 años. Se tomaron como parámetros la distancia de cuerno pulpar mesial a centro de cúspide mesial, distancia de cuerno pulpar distal a centro de cúspide distal, distancia entre cuernos pulpares, distancia del centro del piso de la cámara pulpar a furca, distancia de la parte media de la cámara de mesial a distal. Resultados. La distancia entre los cuernos pulpares y la parte media de las cúspides tanto distal como mesial fue mayor en los primeros molares inferiores, la distancia mesio- distal de molares inferiores fue mayor para los molares mandibulares. Conclusiones. El tamaño de la cámara pulpar en pacientes jóvenes es mayor comparado con los adultos, debido a la aposición de dentina secundaria durante toda la vida. La medida entre piso de cámara y la furca, no es significativamente representativo, por lo que se debería tener el mismo cuidado entre pacientes de diferentes edades durante los tratamientos endodónticos.

This study aims to determine the effect of IAA-producing bacteria and phosphate solvents from the rhizosphere of Serbania grandiflora (L.) Pers on the germination of Vigna radiata (L.). This research began by isolating the rhizosphere bacterium Serbania grandiflora (L.) Pers, which was then characterized by cell morphology, grammatical and morphological characteristics. The ability of bacteria to dissolve phosphate was evaluated qualitatively by observing the presence of clear zones in Pikovskaya media, and quantitatively with a spectrophotometer. The isolate's ability to produce IAA was tested quantitatively using Salkowski reagent, and quantitatively using a spectrophotometer. For the effect of isolates on the growth of green beans, a completely randomized design (CRD) research design was used, with 4 treatments, namely P0 (sterile distilled water); P1 (IAA-producing bacterial culture); P2 (phosphate solubilizing bacterial culture); P3 (IAA producer and phosphate solubilizer). Vigna radiata L. seedling growth test was carried out in vitro on Murphy's medium. The research data were analyzed using the one-way ANOVA test. The results showed that 5 isolates had the ability to dissolve phosphate, with a phosphate solubility index ranging from 1.70-2.14, where isolate RT7 showed the highest value. The isolate's ability to produce IAA at concentrations ranged from 7.1 - 62.7 ppm, with the highest value shown by isolate RT6. The results showed that treatment with IAA-producing bacterial isolates plus phosphate solubilization properties showed a significantly different effect on Vigna radiata L. plant height compared to other treatments.

Published: January 2024

The paper aims to determine the difference in science learning outcomes of students who apply the demonstration method and the science learning outcomes of students who use conventional learning in class IV elementary school. The type of research that the author uses is experimental research. This research uses a group of research subjects from a certain population, then grouped randomly into two groups or classes, namely the experimental class and the control class. The experimental class was treated using the demonstration method and the control class used the conventional method, then both classes underwent the same post-test. The sampling technique used was non-probability sampling with proportional sampling. The same number of students and class average scores that are close to the same are class VA and class VB. After getting the sample class, the two classes were randomly drawn, then class VA was obtained as the experiment and class VB as the control. The results of this research can be seen from the results of the hypothesis test using the t-test which was carried out so that the value of t_count=0 and t_table= 2.02 was obtained. From the distributed table t, we get ttable = 2.02. So, it can be concluded that t_count > t_tabel, where 0 > 2.02, thus the working hypothesis H_1 is accepted, meaning there are significant differences in learning outcomes in the two samples. This research concluded that the science learning results of class IV students who used the demonstration learning method did not have a significant difference because the two sample classes got the same learning results, due to the limited time of the researcher who delivered the material to the experimental class
As encruzilhadas do constitucionalismo no brasil
Authors: Oliveira André Soares , Scholz Mariana Caroline
Published: January 2024

O constitucionalismo é um movimento político, jurídico e filosófico, ocorrido nas margens norte do Atlântico, que promove a limitação do poder por meio do direito positivo sintetizado em um documento solene: a Constituição. O constitucionalismo nasce em sua versão liberal, prezando pela separação de poderes e a consagração de direitos individuais. Este artigo objetiva contrastar os objetivos do constitucionalismo com aquilo que a Constituição Política do Império do Brasil, de 1824, consagrou em seu texto e como isso, de alguma maneira, ainda pode repercutir no constitucionalismo brasileiro. Adotou-se o método histórico-crítico para a exegese do texto constitucional, identificando continuidades históricas entre a primeira constituição e a própria experiência que se seguiu.

Impact of Balanced Lifestyles on Childhood Development: A Study at Crèche
Authors: P Vasundhara , P Nagaraju
Published: January 2024

Introduction: In our fast-paced world, children’s dietary habits and behaviour are increasingly concerning, with a tendency toward indulging in sweets and snacks. Insights are derived from observations of 20 children at a crèche facility. Temptation of sweets: Children’s inherent attraction to sweet and salty snacks challenges maintaining a healthy diet. Excessive consumption can lead to health issues, recognizing the pivotal role parents and caregivers play in guiding children toward healthier choices. Significance of a balanced diet: A well-rounded and nutritious diet is crucial for a child’s physical and mental development. Providing fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins is essential. Role of activities: Diversifying a child’s routine with engaging activities is a powerful strategy to redirect their focus from unhealthy snacks. Sports, arts, outdoor play, and educational games promote physical fitness, creativity, and cognitive development, contributing to a well-balanced lifestyle. Strategies for encouraging healthy choices: • Lead by example: Modelling healthy habits inspires children to adopt similar behaviour. • Educate about nutrition: Imparting knowledge about the nutritional value of foods equips children to make informed choices. • Make healthy options accessible: Stocking the kitchen with nutritious snacks makes it convenient for children to opt for healthier alternatives. • Limit unhealthy choices: Setting clear limits on sugary snacks helps children develop moderation and self-control. • Create a fun and active environment: Fostering an enjoyable environment involves family outings, games, and making exercise a natural part of daily life. Results: Encouraging results were observed among the 20 children. Two children, aged around 12, demonstrated awareness of healthy habits. Excluding these two, others showed positive changes in behaviour towards sweets and snacks through activities and counselling. Conclusion: Maintaining a balance between a child’s consumption of sweets and snacks and engaging in diverse activities is crucial for overall development. A combination of nutritious choices and engaging activities guides children toward a path of health and happiness
The word kurtina (English curtain wall/clump): history and modernity
Authors: Nikolenkova N. V. , Borodina E. V.
Published: January 2024

The article discusses the main stages of analysing the agnonym kurtina ( curtain wall/clump). An agnonymis a lexical unit unfamiliar to native speakers. Words from Russian classical literature often become agnonymsfor modern youth who just skip unfamiliar lexemes while reading texts. Thus, such lexical units do not enrich schoolchildren’s vocabulary and remain incomprehensible and unrecognis able in other contexts. Drawing on the example of working with the agnonym kurtina when studying other unknown/forgotten units, the authors suggest using a linguistic questionnaire to identify unfamiliar words. Additionally, we recommend employing dictionary data and contexts obtained from the Russian National Corpus in order to trace the semantic transformation of these lexemes. While working with the word kurtina in Russian language classes, we were able to assume that the lexical status of this word changed at the beginning of the 21st century. One of its meanings has ceased to be obsolete passing into the layer of general professional vocabulary.
QR code: from a term to a colloquial word
Authors: Gromenko E. S.
Published: January 2024

Determinologisation is one of the actively growing tendencies in the modern Russian language development. However, the complex process of adapting a specialised lexeme to the general linguistic environment, its definition and criteria remain a controversial issue in modern linguistics, which determines the relevance of this study. The article aims to consider one way of transforming a term into a commonly used word. Based on the material of mass media texts of the 1990–2020s, the study traces the discursive migration path of the QR code term. The transformation of this term essential for modern society was complicated by the new loan word assimilation and consisted in a gradual transition from a term to a colloquial word. The research relied on distributional, source study, and corpus analysis in conjunction with comparative and statistical methods (using the "Integrum" database and the scientific electronic library elibrary.ru) when analysing the lexical material from the semantic, statistical, and functional perspectives to make reliable generalisations and obtain new conclusions. The article examines the process of adaptation to the Russian language environment the foreign language abbreviation, namely the first component of the word QR code, underwent. This adaptation is embodied in the functionally unrestricted variants k’yuar-kod/kuar-kod/kyuar-kod and in the colloquial variantskverkod/kver-kod/kiarkodkuar/k’yuar/k’yu-kod/kyuar/kyur-kod. Neutral variants are also analysed from the stand point of the principles of Russian orthography and norms. As one determinologisation stage, the study considers the process of semantic development of the neutral variants QR-kod/k’yuar-kod/kuar-kod/kyuar-kod, their derivational activity, and involvement in language game. The article also reveals extralinguistic factors that impacted on various stages of the QR code adaptation by the language environment. These include the approval of the QR code by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) as a standard for mobile phones (2011) and the COVID-19 pandemic (2020).

Published: January 2024

The Automobile Registration System on Blockchain is a groundbreaking solution that utilizes blockchain technology to secure the process of automobile registration. Traditional systems often face challenges such as data manipulation, fraud, and inefficiency. In contrast, this proposed system leverages blockchain’s transparency, immutability, and decentralized consensus to overcome these issues. The central idea of this system is to establish a trustworthy, reliable, and impenetrable registration system for vehicles. The framework uses blockchain innovation to guarantee that enlistment records are immutable and safely put away. Exchanges and records are confirmed and approved through a decentralized organization of hubs, imparting an elevated degree of confidence in the enrolment cycle. The system’s ownership transfer functionality is critical, enabling secure and efficient transactions between vehicle owners. Whether it involves transferring ownership between individuals or manufacturers, the blockchain-based system ensures transparency and traceability throughout the process
Towards a Trustworthy and Efficient ETL Pipeline for ATM Transaction Data
Authors: Muhammad Ahmad Ashfaq  , Nimra Haq  , Usman Arshad  , Muhammad Farooq  , Rehman Shuja ur Rehman
Published: January 2024

ATMs generate vast amounts of data daily, which needs to be analyzed and stored. Dealing with this data, also termed big data, is a complex task, and here comes the role of ETL pipelines. ETL pipelines need extensive resources for operations, and their performance optimization is necessary as data must be dealt with in near or even real-time. If the pipeline deals with financial data such as ATM transactions, steps should be taken to ensure the data's security, privacy, confidentiality, and integrity. This can be achieved using Blockchain technology. It is a distributed ledger technology having an immutable nature. It has significant advantages in terms of providing security, but it has disadvantages as well, such as low throughput and transactional latency. If blockchain is used in an ETL pipeline, it will affect the overall performance. So, to prevent the decline in performance, steps should be taken to optimize it. In this paper, we are using parallelization and partitioning as techniques to optimize performance. The primary goal here is to achieve maximum security while maintaining performance.
Evaluation of the mechanisms acting on the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation in CESM2 for the 1pctCO2 experiment
Authors: Sancho Lívia , Passos Elisa , Cataldi Marcio , Paulo de Freitas Assad Luiz , Landau Luiz
Published: January 2024

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a crucial component of the Earth's climate system due to its fundamental role in heat distribution, carbon and oxygen transport, and the weather. Other climate components, such as the atmosphere and sea ice, influence the AMOC. Evaluating the physical mechanisms of those interactions is paramount to increasing knowledge about AMOC's functioning. In this study, the authors used outputs from the Community Earth System Model version 2 and observational data to investigate changes in the AMOC and the associated physical processes. Two DECK experiments were evaluated: piControl and 1pctCO2 , with an annual increase of 1% of atmospheric CO2 . The analysis revealed a significant decrease in the AMOC, associated with changes in mixed layer depth and buoyancy in high latitudes of the North Atlantic, resulting in the shutdown of deep convection and potentially affecting the formation of North Atlantic Deep Water and Antarctic Bottom Water. A vital aspect observed in this study is the association between increased runoff and reduced water evaporation, giving rise to a positive feedback process. Consequently, the rates of freshwater spreading have intensified during this period, which could lead to an accelerated disruption of the AMOC beyond the projections of existing models.

This study aims to introduce the concept of shared parenting as a solution to child custody disputes in religious courts. This research is a normative legal research, by analyzing the decision of Tarempa Religious Court Number 27/Pdt.G/2023/PA.Trp, the decision of Tarakan Religious Court Number 408/Pdt.G/2019/PA. Tar, and decision of Syar'iyah Kualasimpang Court Number 50/Pdt.G/2021/MS.Ksg. The results of this study show that the concept of shared parenting is one of the right choices to resolve child custody cases, this pattern is taken to break up situations when both parents fight each other for the right to hadanah. With this concept of co-parenting, it is hoped that after divorce, the relationship between parents and children will continue to be good and harmonious. The implementation of the concept of shared parenting in disputes in religious courts can be found in two products, namely rulings and peace deeds. The peace deed is also in the form of a ruling, but more specifically related to the legitimacy of the peace agreement that occurs in the mediation process, both within the court and outside the court.

Published: January 2024

The current problem of finding ways to master folk singing culture in the modern educational environment is being actively developed by T. V. Shastina. Acute issues related to ethnic vocal pedagogy, with the traditions and prospects of the Russian vocal school, with the differences in folk singing performance in the folklore environment and in the system of modern ethnic vocal education, are raised by her on the pages of the journal «Bulletin of the St. Petersburg State Pedagogical University». Many years of pedagogical and research activities, work in folklore and ethnographic expeditions allowed Tatiana Vladimirovna to identify the vectors of the development of ethical education and its effective methods are revealed, and also to develop a unique pedagogical technology for teaching folk singing, which is based on the method of speech articulation and resonating of the singing sound. The pedagogical beliefs of the teacher-researcher consist in the need to train ethno-local teachers who can independently solve professional tasks of various levels of complexity in modern conditions, to develop new directions of ethno-local pedagogical science and practice, for the development of ethno-singing culture of modern Russian society.

K. S. Petrov-Vodkin (1878–1939) is an outstanding Russian painter, graphic artist, book illustrator, theater artist. He is also known as the author of literary works, works of a theoretical nature on issues of art, and a person with a keen sense of music. Comparisons and images that carry musical semantics appear in the literary works of Petrov-Vodkin. He shares with his family and friends in letters about his experiences with music; from the memoirs of his contemporaries, we know about his successful experiences playing the violin and piano. It is not surprising that music on a symbolic level is organically present in a number of his paintings. First, this is the artist’s early symbolist work, where images appear that carry musical meaning or motifs of dance. However, already at the initial stage of post-revolutionary creativity, musical plasticity and rhythm in his works became less and less. However, it is possible to highlight a number of still life compositions that include the image of a violin, the artist’s favorite musical instrument. We can conclude that Petrov-Vodkin’s “musical” works are attractive, filled with expression and expressive color. Music at the associative level is present in each of them, which is achieved through the rhythmic organization of the composition and the presence of certain symbols, such as notes, musical instruments, dance movements of figures. All this enhances the artistic imagery of the paintings and deepens their ideological and semantic meaning. To date, no major research works have been devoted to the study of musical motifs and images in the work of Petrov-Vodkin, however, this aspect of studying the artist’s work seems relevant. This article attempts to systematize images with musical significance in the works of this artist, analyze them and outline new directions for studying the creative heritage of Petrov-Vodkin.

The genesis of media ecology as an independent scientific, practical and pedagogical direction of inquiry is explored. Its interdisciplinary essence is characterized and cross-curriculum connections are established with the disciplines of the library and information cycle, primarily with bibliology and book history. Two vectors of research in the field of media ecology are identified: technocentric and anthropocentric, and their fundamental methodological foundations are outlined in the context of a network understanding of the architecture of library and information activities. Based on the analysis of scientific literature and legal documents regulating library and information education, the key pedagogical tasks of media ecology are formulated: developing skills in identifying unreliable information and techniques of media influence, organization of professional activities in conditions of information overload, training in data verification technologies, bibliographic heuristics and professional navigation in specialized resources, dissemination of knowledge about models of text-mediated communications, information retrieval languages and the principles of their functioning.

The types of organizational and legal forms of non-commercial legal entities are described, which are cultural institutions: state, municipal, private. State and municipal institutions are classified according to the types of organizational and legal forms into state, budgetary, autonomous institutions. Crucial features for the classification of municipal libraries are identified: the form of ownership, the legal personality of the library, the type of organizational and legal form, involvement in the cultural sector, belonging to a certain type of municipality. Based on the given features, a working version of the classification of modern municipal libraries in Russia is presented. Modern organizational forms of municipal libraries are singled out: centralized library systems, central inter-settlement libraries, city (central city) libraries, rural and settlement libraries, library-type organizations with the functions of cultural, leisure and club-type institutions. Perspectives for the development of their networks under optimization conditions are outlined.
The Study of Spontaneity and Preparedness of Oral Speech in Forensic Linguistics: To the Formulation of the Problem
Authors: Berdnikova T. V.
Published: January 2024

The article considers different approaches to the study of spontaneity and readiness of speech – in linguistics and forensic linguistics.

In linguistics, there are two directions of studying the spontaneity and preparedness of sounding speech: the study of the speech flow as a whole and the analysis of speech by language levels. In the first case, the main attention is paid to the ontogenesis of speech thinking, the formation of a person’s communicative competence, as well as the mechanisms of speech generation. In the level-by-level analysis of oral speech, the study of the phonetic level of the language occupies a leading place, while research at other levels of the language is presented unsystematically. In the practice of forensic examination, gradations of sounding speech are determined according to the criterion «prepared speech – unprepared speech». The parameters that are taken into account in the study of sounding speech for the identification of signs of preparedness and spontaneity are established: type (form) of speech; genre in which the speech is performed; age of the speaker; the speaker’s level of education, his professional activity, social status; parameters of the communicative situation: the addresser and the addressee, the relationship between the speaker and the listener, the tone of communication, the purpose, means of communication, the place of communication, etc.; the nature of communication.

The author of the present article attempts to develop possible directions for the study of sounding speech in order to determine its spontaneity and preparedness.

Nowadays sex-age gap, stature, and ancestral ties are used as biological markers to identify people for forensic purposes. This study was carried out to investigate sexual dimorphic characterization in a small ethnic group in northern Nigeria as seen in hand lengths and ratios. The present study was conducted on 862 subjects (308 males and 554 females) aged 11 to 19. Hand length measurements were taken from the ventral crease to the tip of the finger as r2d, l2d, l2d, l4d, and 2d:4d respectively. Student’s t-test was used to describe data and sex differentiation. Pearson’s correlation analysis was applied to establish relationship between stature and age with hand length ratios. Multiple regression models were generated to back up the strength of relationship by prediction from digit lengths for stature. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
On the Question of the Applicability of Artificial Intelligence Systems to Forensic Examination of Documents and Their Requisites
Authors: Kupin A. F. , Kovalenko A. S.
Published: January 2024

The article describes the possibilities of applying artificial intelligence systems used in a number of tasks arising in the course of law enforcement activities and also beyond them. The author gives examples of solving identification, prediction, and detection problems that are successfully solved using such systems. Based on the analysis of the principles of the construction and functioning of the neural network, which forms the basis of artificial intelligence, as an abstract model created to solve a specific problem, the capabilities of neural networks as a whole are revealed, and thus the features of working with them are demonstrated. The procedure and principles of operation of convolutional neural networks are described and, using their example, the results that can be achieved during forensic handwriting and technical forensic examinations of documents, as well as studies conducted within the framework of forensic expert activities, in particular, the identification of signs of technical forgery of documents (installation, erasure, additions, finishing) are indicated, establishing the facts of the execution of several signatures or handwritten records by one or different performers, establishing the original content of the records, fragments of which have been partially lost or distorted. The prospects and significance of convolutional neural networks are revealed, the use of which in the expert research process makes it possible to increase the scientific validity and objectivity of the conclusions of forensic examination and, thereby, creates prerequisites for increasing its role in proving facts of importance.
Countering the threats of dis/misinformation: Fact-checking practices of students of two universities in West Africa

Published: January 2024

Although access is uneven, studies have shown a high uptake of digital technologies and platforms across Africa, with many accessing social media, which is a fertile ground for the spread of fake news and disinformation, calling for the need to factcheck information before consumption or sharing. The study was grounded in explore, engage, and empower (EEE) model of media and information literacy (MIL), which states that MIL competencies empower media and information users to identify, access, and retrieve information and media content skillfully (explore), analyze, and evaluate media and information critically (engage) and create, share, or use information and media ethically, safely, and responsibly (empower). The purpose was to assess fact-checking practices of students in two universities in Ghana and Nigeria to ascertain the extent to which they factcheck information, their levels of knowledge of fact checkers and the fact checkers that they use. The simple random sampling was used to draw a total of 316 respondents. It was found that although many respondents confirmed the authenticity of news and information received before acting on them, they mostly did so through social media and their networks. Few respondents knew about fact-checking platforms and could state names of actual factcheckers. The study makes a case for MIL, which includes fact checking, to enable media users to analyze and evaluate news and information critically to ensure the consequent ethical safe and responsible sharing and usage of information and media content, as EEE model proposes.
