Cardioprotective Activity of Costus Root Ethanol Extract in Experimentally-Induced Hypothyroidism in Female Albino Rats
Authors: Abdul Mohammed Rashed , Rahim Saleh Mohammed , Saleh Ahmad Hamad
Published: September 2023

Hypothyroidism is a popular endocrine disorder caused by a thyroid hormone deficit. Changes in the state of the thyroid gland significantly affect many organs, including the heart. This study examined the cardioprotective effects of an artificially induced hypothyroidism in female rats using an ethanol extract from the root plant Saussurea lappa (Costus). For the current study, 25 adult female albino rats were employed. They were split into five equal groups, including control, hypothyroid group, post-treatment group with costus extract, co-administered hypothyroid group with costus extract, and post-treatment group with levothyroxine. Thyroid hormones (T3, T4, and TSH), lipid profile, and oxidative stress indicators (catalase, superoxide dismutase, reduced glutathione, and lipid peroxidation levels) were also measured in the serum. The heart muscle was the subject of a histological research. The findings suggested that Costus root ethanol extract improved hypothyroidism in female rats, as proven by the reversal of many biochemical abnormalities and improvements in the heart's histology. Our study indicates that the root of Costus exhibited cardioprotection efficiency against hypothyroidism-induced serious effects on the heart, The antioxidant and radical-scavenging properties of its components may be responsible for this promising effect.

Published: September 2023

Drone technology plays a critical role in supporting conservation efforts for endangered species, not only in terms of species monitoring within various landscapes, but also potentially when applied to behavioral studies to investigate interaction patterns and response to environmental change. We tested a thermal drone to investigate thermoregulation and surface temperature of wild Sumatran elephants in the lowland tropical forest of Jambi, Indonesia. Thermoregulation data was obtained using RGB images and videos, while temperature values were measured from thermal images (R-JPEG) extracted into TIFF equipped with pixel temperature. We detected a visual thermoregulation mechanism known as mud bathing. Our study demonstrated that the trunk functions to draw mud and throw it onto the head, back, and stomach, the tail functions to distribute the mud to all parts of the back of the body, while the ears flapped to keep head temperature cool. Our measurements showed that the surface temperature of Sumatran elephants is between 28.9-30.3°C. The head had a relatively lower temperature than other body parts. This study also revealed that the environmental humidity variable significantly affects the elephant's temperature rise. The use of drone technology for future behavioral studies is recommended as it accurately provides high quality data and can be widely used in any type of terrain.

The forest conversion into oil palm plantations in Belitung impacts the plant source for pollen and nectar to support the honey bee Apis dorsata. This study aimed to identify the plants used by A. dorsata as pollen sources in honey and bee bread in honey bee nests and to analyze the vegetation composition and structure surrounding the sunggau (artificial nesting site) in Belitung Regency. Honey from A. dorsata was collected from bee nests in sunggau on Kampak Island and Tanjung Rusa. The pollen grains from 20 ml honey were acetolysed and counted until 1,200 grains for each honey sample. In Kampak Island, we found eight pollen types in honey dominated by Rhizophora mucronate mangrove pollen and eleven pollen types in bee bread dominated by Melaleuca cajuputi. The pollen type in honey in Tanjung Rusa was similar to those in Kampak Island, and nine pollen types were found in the bee bread dominated by Elaeis guineensis. The vegetation analysis revealed that mangrove and heath forests in Kampak Island were dominated by Lumnitzera littorea and Melaleuca cajuputi, respectively. The results of this study confirm the bees' notable use of the mangrove ecosystem, which adds conservation value, especially in supporting bee management efforts in Belitung.

Authors: Dechamps Pierre
Published: September 2023

The International Energy Agency (IEA) releases each year in October/November its World Energy Outlook (WEO). The IEA WEO 20221 provides analysis and insights on trends in global energy demand and supply, and what they imply for energy security, environmental protection and economic development. The WEO covers the whole energy system and uses a scenario-based approach to highlight the key choices, consequences and issues lying ahead, and to show how the course of the energy system can be affected by changing some of the key variables, mostly the energy policies adopted by governments around the world. This article tries to identify the main conclusions which can be drawn from this year’s edition, in the troubled context of the energy crisis stemming from the Russian aggression in Ukraine and with the pressing climate urgency in the background.
Translation Criticism as a Dialogue. A Hermeneutic Model
Authors: de Bończa Bukowski Piotr
Published: September 2023

In this article, I reflect on the productivity of hermeneutic translation criticism, focusing on literary translation. I pose the question whether the hermeneutic mode of translation analysis and evaluation – largely based on the premises of Romantic art criticism – has the potential to make a significant contribution to contemporary discussions on the functional model of translation criticism. My argument is that the source of the productivity (and functionality) of translation criticism is dialogicity – a feature that can be considered fundamental in the case of hermeneutics. Following the dialogical hermeneutics of F. Schlegel, F. Schleiermacher and H.-G. Gadamer, as well as H.R. Jauß’s aesthetics of reception, I formulate some general postulates regarding a hermeneutic critique of literary translations. This critical mode is interrogative: it locates and poses questions that are answered by the examined texts. The critic’s questions include those about the original and for the original, about the translator and for the translator, as well as about the reader and for the reader. Finally, I demonstrate cases in which a critical dialogue crystallizes around literary translations. It is a dialogue that can be shaped and interpreted by the postulated hermeneutic translation criticism.
“That hive of subtlety”: Retranslation as Criticism, or a New Polish Benito Cereno
Authors: Majer Krzysztof
Published: September 2023

The article focuses on my translation of Herman Melville’s novella Benito Cereno, published recently in a volume entitled Nowele i opowiadania (PIW, 2020), the work of eight translators into Polish. The volume contains new attempts at texts translated forty years earlier by Krystyna Korwin-Mikke; also featured is her own, newly revised translation of Melville’s classic – Bartleby, the Scrivener. Finding myself authoring a retranslation for the first time, I became intrigued by the affect accompanying such a ‘belated’ arrival at the text – not within a long, eminent ‘series’ (in Edward Balcerzan’s understanding of the term), but where only one previous, more or less canonical translation exists. Taking as my starting point Balcerzan’s terminology as well as Anna Legeżyńska’s notion of the ‘shared word’, I employ the concept of the translators’ agon, developed from Harold Bloom’s ideas by Kaisa Koskinen and Outi Paloposki (2015). On the basis of several examples from the field of Polish translations, and concentrating on the rhetorics of paratextual material, I briefly examine the positions that a second translator – fated to participate in an agonistic relation – may take with regard to his precursor; my examples here are three renowned practitioners: Michał Kłobukowski, Krystyna Rodowska and Maciej Świerkocki. Because my own experience is bound up with translation practice to a considerably larger degree than with its theoretical aspects, the heart of the article is an analysis of particular strategies in both of the Polish translations of Benito Cereno. I focus on issues such as nomenclature, narrative perspective, grammatical gender, as well as conventional and idiosyncratic metaphors. Exploring my own agonistic relations with Krystyna Korwin-Mikke, I attempt to determine the extent to which I have managed to avoid getting caught up in the affect produced by the uncomfortable yet inspiring consciousness of the first translator’s voice. The article is an extension of the critical gesture which I consider my retranslation, in itself, to be. Emphasizing the differences in our approach, I a so try to embrace what is shared, and to acknowledge my indebtedness to the precursor.
Backwoods of Language. The Modernist Prose of Djuna Barnes in Polish Translation
Authors: Sobczak Izabela
Published: September 2023

Only eighty years after the original publication of Djuna Barnes’s Nightwood was the Polish literary market enriched by a translation of one of the strangest novels of Euro- American modernism. Marcin Szuster’s translation, with the Polish title Ostępy nocy, has already garnered praise as well as prizes, leading to the first Polish discussion concerning the work of the eccentric American writer. The focus of this article is to analyze the Polish translation of Nightwood with a special interest in Barnes’s style, which itself becomes a central character in the novel and which connects, according to feminist critics (K. Kaivola, S. Benstock), to its emancipatory potential. In this article I discuss the claim that the complex style of such prose is the (conscious) manifestation of a woman’s voice (as an affect), behind which one can discover a body – one that experiences and is experienced (J. Taylor). The body, both a structural and a rhetorical category in feminist criticism, can be seen in Barnes’s prose as an element which organizes both time and space – therefore, the ambiguity of her terms and the complexity of style make for a real translation challenge. Marcin Szuster as a translator needs to follow Barnes’s “distinctive point of view,” which is a “feminine” one, distanced by gender, experience and time.

One of the fabrics is subjected to a deeper analysis in terms of the manufacturing technique.
Porównanie symboliki wierzby i lilii w chińskiej i polskiej kulturze na tle teorii językowego obrazu świata
Authors: Zou Jiahao
Published: September 2023

The article introduces the symbolism of the willow and the lily, which have played an important role in the lives of Chinese and Poles over many years. The research issue of this article is the question: What are the differences and similarities in terms of willow and lily symbolism in Chinese and Polish culture? The article is based on an analysis of literature. It aims to indicate the symbolism of the willow and the lily and to find the roots of their differences and similarities in Chinese and Polish cultures. The first part of the article is devoted to the theory of a linguistic worldview, which is the theoretical basis of the research. The second part of the article focuses on the most important and widespread symbolisms of the willow. The third part presents the most important connotations of the lily in both cultures. I It turns out that there are many similar symbolisms of the willow in Chinese and Polish culture, such as homesickness and vitality, etc. Nevertheless, the willow is an attribute of the noble hermit in Chinese culture, while in Polish culture it symbolizes susceptibility because of its pliancy. There are also many analogies in the associations of the lily in Polish and Chinese cultures, such as purity and holiness. Contrary to appearances, in the two civilizations the differences in lily symbolism are not readily apparent.

Authors: Kamiński Konrad
Published: September 2023

The purpose of this article is to identify the key issues arising in relation to the existence of de facto (common law, nai’en) marriages in Japan. This paper will first show the broader context of the impact of the pandemic on legal-family relations in Japan. The discussion will then focus on the issue of de facto marriages, i.e. the genesis and increasing role of de facto marriages in Japan will be presented. Indeed, there have been increasing symptoms of the inclusion of informal relationships close to the marriage relationship in a legal context. The examples presented in this article provide a starting point for an analysis of the demands that have emerged in Japanese public space in relation to the specific needs of the COVID-19 pandemic era, i.e. the change of the unified spousal name system, as well as the issue of access to the partner’s medical information, and legal regulation related to parental authority

The development of teaching materials is needed to actualize subjects, especially mathematics, as a contextual subject. This goal is to improve students' reasoning abilities in understanding and solving the problems in daily life. The function of the model is as an intermediary between students' mathematical reasoning abilities and the questions presented in the development of teaching materials. More mathematical reasoning abilities are found in trigonometry material. Trigonometry is the science of measuring the angles and boundaries of triangles (used in astronomy and so on) in which there are solutions for other problems, such as measuring the height of mountains, buildings, towers, etc. Method: This research uses a qualitative method. Results: The teaching material Trigonometry research is valid for module material validation, graphics or media validation, and obtained from audience validation results. The three percentages are at a very valid validation level and can be used in schools. Novelty: After the application of this teaching material, the result was that students' mathematical reasoning abilities became better.
Investigation of the Relationship Between Computational Thinking and Design Thinking Skills of Science Teacher Candidates
Authors: Türkmen Hakan , Öz Şahsenem
Published: September 2023

Objective: Today's problems, which affect society and the environment, require individuals to have comprehensive skills. In this regard, it is essential to possess Computational Thinking (CT) and Design Thinking (DT) because it encompasses many dimensions and facilitates learning. Since DT processes are production-oriented, they can concretize computational processes that seem abstract to students. Therefore, using DT and CT together can improve both skills' development. However, it is seen that there needs to be a gap in investigating the relationship between CT and the DT skills of science teacher candidates. Therefore, the current research investigated the relationship between CT and DT skills among 94 science teacher candidates in the first and fourth years of their education and whether their skills differed based on grade level. Method: For this objective, a relational research model from quantitative research methodologies was utilized to understand whether variables interacted and gain valuable insights. Results: The results showed a positive relationship between science teacher candidates' CT and DT skills. Moreover, their skills differed according to grade level. Novelty: In this respect, this research contributes to the literature by stating that it could be beneficial to incorporate CT and DT skills in courses designed to acquire these two skills.

Authors: BASTUG Yavuz , ÇOLAKEROL Aykut
Published: September 2023

Background: This study aimed to investigate whether there is a difference in recurrence and progression rate before and after the pandemic in patients who applied for bladder cancer and/or were followed-up-treatment-operated in the urology clinic during the pandemic. Material and Methods: A total of 116 non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients with delayed cystoscopy and 90 control patients with timely cystoscopy were included in the study between June and July 2020. Demographic data of the patients were recorded. Recurrences and progression scores were calculated and grouped according to these scores. The cystoscopy delay time was calculated from the planned cystoscopy time to the performed cystoscopy time. The recurrence and progression status of the patients were recorded, and a comparison was made between the two groups. Results: The median age was 63.6 years (interquartile range [IQR] 35–85) in the delayed cystoscopy group and 67.3 (25-87) in the control group. In the delayed cystoscopy group, 29 (25%) patients had tumour recurrence on follow-up cystoscopy, and 3 (10.34%) patients had tumour progression on subsequent TUR-BT. The mean cystoscopy delay time is 89.27±27.35 days. As a result of the chi-square analysis performed on the group with 10-17 recurrence points found a statistically significant relationship between the experimental and control groups (χ2=5.792; p=.016; p0.05). Conclusions: In this study, we reported that superficial bladder cancers with low recurrence scores could wait 3-6 months, but delaying 3-6 months in cases with a recurrence score of 10 or more increases the recurrence rate.

Authors: Po-Hsun Lin  , Pin-Hui Lee  , Emily K. Kin
Published: September 2023

Membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology, a combination of traditional activated sludge and membrane filtration, has been widely used for industrial wastewater treatment and reclamation. This paper highlights a pilot-scale MBR system treating textile wastewater from a textile factory in Taiwan. Over 7 months of continuous operation, the average MBR influent chemical oxygen demand (COD) is 332 mg/L, and the average effluent COD is 38 mg/L, which results in approximately 88% COD removal. A reverse osmosis (RO) module is installed after 2 months of MBR operation and uses the MBR permeate as its influent. The RO produces pure water with average COD, conductivity, and color of 7 mg/L, 16 μS/cm, and 7 Pt-Co, respectively. The RO permeate is suitable for reuse in manufacturing processes, and the RO membrane shows stable performance with TMP, which is less than or equal to 0.5 kg/cm2 during the test. The study demonstrates the great feasibility of MBR combined with RO for treating and reclaiming textile wastewater.

Published: September 2023

Moderation is the best choice to be applied in the world of education or in the learning process considering that acts of violence and bullying disturb the community and tolerance is the right choice to practice in social life. To create a more tolerant social life, education is needed that initiates moderation in learning, especially in Islamic religious learning because Islam is one of the subjects in schools/madrasas and tertiary institutions which makes it possible to be directed to learning that contains moderation, especially in context of religious moderation. Islamic religious learning with a concentration of religious moderation is expected to minimize acts of radicalism, considering that Indonesian society is known for its pluralism and diversity of religions, ethnicities, customs, languages, and cultures. The method used in this research is to use a qualitative type with a literature study approach. The results of this study indicate that moderation in Islamic religious learning in schools/madrasah and universities must be demonstrated by utilizing learning dimensions that are rich in religious moderation values, while the learning dimensions are, 1) Direct learning strategies in the form of drills and indirect strategies in the form of relaxation, 2) Learning models with a multidisciplinary approach, inquiry methods, discussion and question and answer techniques as well as learning objectives based on religion and Indonesianness.

Published: September 2023

Since the early 1990s in South Korea, climatic and anthropogenic factors have incurred the reduction of the wild seeds of the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, which raised concerns about losing genetic diversity and accelerating genetic deterioration. We assessed the genetic diversity of C. gigas populations from two farms (Tongyeong and Gadeokdo) on the southern coast, where about 80% of the cultivated oysters in Korea are produced. Tongyeong showed slightly higher diversity than Gadeokdo, but both populations had a similar genetic structure characterized by low nucleotide diversity. Comparative haplotype analyses provided data supporting genetic features of the populations that include (1) weak genotype-locality relationship, (2) low levels of gene flow between populations, and (3) possible seasonal fluctuation of genetic variation within a population. Furthermore, the highly alike haplotype network patterns were observed between the wild and farm populations as well as among the populations in neighboring countries, which suggests that the genetic structure is conserved between wild and hatchery populations, and geographic proximity has minimal influence on the genetic composition.

The paper summarizes the results of monthly studies of phyto- and zooplankton communities of the estuarine region of the Northern Dvina, conducted during environmental monitoring from November 2020 to January 2022 at the water intakes of JSC “Arkhangelsk Pulp and Paper Mill” (Novodvinsk) and LLC “RVC-Arkhangelsk” (Arkhangelsk and Silikatchikov settlement). Based on the results of plankton surveys, the qualitative composition was studied and the intra-annual variability of quantitative indicators and structural features of plankton communities was described. In phytoplankton, 273 intraspecific taxa of microalgae were found, among which diatoms predominated (159 taxa). The indicators of abundance and biomass changed synchronously during the entire observation period. Primary production and P/B coefficients were at the level of digital values for the Arctic zone. The Shannon Index identified the phytoplankton community as medium-complex in a stable state. 45 species belonging to 4 systematic groups were found in zooplankton. Seasonal dynamics of zooplankton was characterized by 2 peaks of abundance and biomass – in November 2020 and July 2021. By species composition, the zooplankton community in the water intake areas in February–June 2021 it can be characterized as a kladocern, in July – as a rotifer-kladocern-copepod, in August as a rotifer-kladocern, and December can be considered the end of the growing season.

The degree of contamination was assessed according to the index of saprobity of phytoplankton and zooplankton. It was found that the state of the waters of the Severnaya Dvina River in the study area corresponded to the oligo-β-mesosaprobic zone or class II water quality (moderately polluted).

The interest and impact of scientific productions on dual-task and movement in recent years have demonstrated the worldwide relevance of this topic, especially in neuroscience, neurorehabilitation, and cognitive stimulation. Therefore, this research aims to conduct a bibliometric study on the scientific production published on dual-task and movement in high-impact search engines in the last decade, from 2012 to 2022. Once classified and parceled out all the information, screening was carried out, obtaining a final sample of 175 articles. The main findings that emerge from the research reviewed highlight the great benefits that dual-tasking and movement have on humans, especially in older age. Despite this, it should be noted that recent studies focus on younger participants, most of whom are of school age. Hence, considering that this practice has been proven to be highly effective, it would be convenient to implement it in the educational field in order to determine whether it can improve the integral development of the human beings.

Published: September 2023

This qualitative study aimed to describe the nature of mistreatment behaviours in the Athlete-coach relationship, in the region of Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro, Portugal. For our study, we interviewed 12 athletes of federated sports. We focused on young athletes, aged 13-18 years old, who practiced a collective, combat, or individual sports discipline. The data was then studied through content analysis.
In the case of athletes as victims, there were no mistreatment behaviours in the Athlete-coach relationship. However, as observers, the athletes have reported forms of abuse in the Athlete-coach relationship, such as verbal emotional abuse and denial of attention and support. As preventative measures for mistreatment behaviours, the athletes mentioned supervision and even the dismissal of the coach. Respondents stress the need to deepen the topic for the strategies to be effective. They emphasize the need to sensitize clubs for the protection of athletes, through investigations in the area under study, for fighting and preventing mistreatment behaviour in sports practice.
Keywords: Emotional abuse, sexual abuse, physical abuse, neglecting, federated sports.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to explore the influence of a Sport Education Model (SEM) season about colpbol on primary education students’ school climate, emotional intelligence, and perceived competence. Method: 77 (42 boys, 35 girls; 64% immigrant) fourth-to-sixth grade students (Mage = 10.87; SD = 1.09) from a southern Spain school took part in this study. Sixth-grade students were taught through co-teaching, while other grades followed traditional teaching. Over a five-week period, students participated in a season of 10 sessions of colpbol. Dependent variables were measured through questionnaires. Results: Results showed significant improvements in sixth-grade students (all analyzed variables) and fifth-grade students (perceived competence and emotional control and regulation). No significant changes were found in fourth-grade students. Discussion: It is shown the positive influence of co-teaching in culturally diverse classrooms on both psychological and socio-affective learning dimensions. Likewise, alternative sports could enhance the inclusive principles of the SEM inspired by the ‘sport for all’ policy.
Keywords: alternative sport, physical education, pedagogical model, culturally diverse classrooms, co-teaching.

El objetivo del estudio es describir las características clínicas, de condición física y calidad de vida de una serie de casos compuesta por 162 pacientes crónicos diagnosticados de patologías hematológicas, trastorno mental o cáncer sólido en estadio IV, incluidos en el ensayo clínico EfiKroniK. Se recogieron datos sociodemográficos y clínicos además de realizar diferentes test para medir la condición física (test 400 metros, test de prensión manual y test de sentarse y levantarse cinco veces) y la calidad de vida general (SF-36, Golberg y Duke) y específica (PANSS y EORT QLQ-C30). Al analizar los resultados encontramos que tanto la condición física (262 segundos en el test de los 400 m, Intervalo de Confianza al 95% [IC95%] = 253 – 271; y 34kg en el test de prensión manual, IC95%=13 – 15) como la calidad de vida (41 puntos en el componente resumen de salud física del SF-36; IC95% = 39 – 42) son netamente inferiores a las de la población general, con diferencias significativas (p<0,05) entre grupos de patología. Las personas con enfermedades crónicas presentan un deterioro en su condición física y calidad de vida que deben tenerse en cuenta para prescribirles planes de ejercicio físico (CEIC de Euskadi, PI2014127).

Abstract. The aim of the study is to describe the clinical, physical fitness and quality of life characteristics of a case series of 162 patients diagnosed with a haematological pathology, a mental disorder or stage IV solid cancer, included in the EfiKroniK clinical trial. Sociodemographic and clinical data were collected and different tests were performed to measure physical fitness (400-metre test, handgrip test and sit-to-stand test five times) and general (SF-36, Golberg and Duke) and specific (PANSS and EORT QLQ-C30) quality of life. Analysing the results we found that both physical fitness (262 seconds in the 400m test, 95% Confidence Interval [95%CI] = 253 - 271; and 34kg in the handgrip test, 95%CI = 13 - 15) and quality of life (41 points in the physical health summary component of the SF-36; 95%CI = 39 - 42) are markedly lower than in the general population, with significant differences (p<0.05) between pathology groups. People with chronic diseases present a deterioration in their physical condition and quality of life that should be taken into account when prescribing physical exercise plans (CEIC de Euskadi, PI2014127).

The purpose of this study is to examine modern professional male boxing by analyzing world champions differences between winners and losers by categories. 322 male professional boxers (age 28.95 ± 4.10, height 175.26 ± 9.44 cm, and weight 147.82 ± 31.31 lb) were included in this observational descriptive analysis, through 320 fights separated by weight divisions [Heavy (H) (n = 24), Cruiser (C) (n = 48), Light Heavy (LH) (n = 62), Super Middle Weight (SMW) (n = 17), Middle Weight (MW) (n = 68), Light Middle Weight (LMW) (n = 42), Welter Weight (WW) (n = 49), Light Welter Weight (LWW) (n = 28), Light Welter (LW) (n = 33), Super Feather Weight (SFW) (n = 63), Feather Weight (FW) (n = 66), Super Bantam Weight (SBW) (n = 42), Bantam Weight (BW) (n = 30), Super Fly Weight (SFLW) (n = 39), Flyweight (F) (n = 29)]. Differences were found between winners and losers (U = 57804 - 90908.5; p <.001; d = 0.129 - 0.776) for all the variables analyzed. Four significant correlations were highlighted: %PL (Percentage of Punches Landed) (rho = .630); AVG PLxR (Punches Landed Per Round) (rho = .594); AVG PPLxR (Power Punches Landed Per Round) (rho = .517); %PPL (Percentage of Power Punches Landed) (rho = .672) and differences were also observed between weight categories (H = 32.29 - 93.11; p <.001 - .004), except for %PL, AVG JLxR, %JL (Percentage of Jabs Landed) and %PPL. This data suggests that in order to win these events, fighters must deliver precise punches, especially power punches, and that there are differences between the categories with this type of punch (AVG PPLxR).
