Use of Figurative Language in Brand Taglines: A Stylistic Analysis
Authors: Mustansir Ayesha , Farid Aisha , Hussain Muhammad Sabboor
Published: June 2024

This study explores the use of figurative language in brand taglines, focusing on how stylistic devices like hyperbole, metaphor, personification, parallelism, and symbolism enhance marketing communication. Through a qualitative analysis of 20 taglines from various product categories, we identify hyperbole and metaphor as the most prevalent forms of figurative language employed to create memorable and impactful brand messages. Hyperbole, exemplified by taglines such as Olay's "Ageless," captures attention through exaggerated claims, while metaphors like Bounty's "A Taste of Paradise" evoke vivid, relatable imagery. Other devices, such as personification in Vaseline's "The Healing Power of Vaseline," parallelism in Lipton's "Drink Better, Live Better," and symbolism in Herbal Essence's "Take your hair to Paradise" further contribute to the persuasive power of taglines by making products more relatable and memorable. This study underscores the effectiveness of figurative language in distinguishing brands in a competitive marketplace and highlights its relevance for marketing professionals and students of stylistics and linguistics. The findings provide practical insights into the strategic use of language in advertising and suggest avenues for future research to expand on these insights across different product categories and stylistic features.

Vinpocetine Attenuates 5-Fluorouracil-Induced Renal Intoxication by Regulating Nrf2/ARE, NF-κB/TLR4, and NLRP3/ASC/Caspase-1 Signals in Rats
Authors: Al-Abbas Nouf
Published: June 2024

Background: One of the most commonly used anti-cancer medications for various tumors is 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). However due to the accompanying nephrotoxicity, its clinical use is restricted. Vinpocetine (VNP) is a derivative of vincamine alkaloid used to treat cognitive disorders and cerebrovascular diseases. Methods: In this study, 40 adult male Wistar rats were randomized into five groups, untreated animals (control), treated with VNP (20mg/kg), 5-FU (30mg/kg), 5-FU+VNP (10mg/kg), and 5-FU+VNP (20mg/kg). The results of all groups were compared to 5-FU rats. Results: VNP improved renal function by reducing serum urea, creatinine, and NGAL levels while it increased the serum level of albumin. VNP restored the oxidant-antioxidant balance of renal tissues mediated by increasing Nrf2/HO-1 expression. VNP suppressed the inflammation by decreasing MPO and NO2 and reducing IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 levels mediated by suppressing TLR4 and NF-κB expression. Moreover, VNP downregulates NLRP3, ASC, and cleaved caspase 1. Histological analysis of kidney tissues validated our findings. Of note, VNP's Reno protective effects were dose-dependent. Conclusion: Our data suggest that co-treatment of VNP with 5-FU is a promising agent for mitigating 5-FU-induced nephrotoxicity by NF-κB/TLR4, Nrf2/ARE, and NLRP3/ASC/Caspase-1 signals.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids in Cardiovascular Diseases: A Comprehensive Overview
Authors: Alshomar et al. Ahmad
Published: June 2024

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) increases worldwide with varying etiological factors. The considerable change in daily life or adoption of a modern lifestyle, including changing eating habits from conventional to modern high-energy foods, results in CVD. In addition to several factors, dietary modification is recommended to reduce CVD prevalence. Omega-3 fatty acids (ω-3 FAs) derived from various sources are beneficial for preventing CVD. This comprehensive review was undertaken to determine the dietary sources of ω-3 FAs and their impacts on the health of cardiovascular patients. Using keywords such as cardiovascular diseases, ω-3 FAs, and modern lifestyle, the literature was searched from PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, and the most recent relevant findings were discussed and cited in this article. The results show how dietary sources of ω-3 FAs positively impact human health regarding cardio protection. Furthermore, the data also provided pieces of evidence that the mechanism(s) by which Omega-3 fatty acids decrease CVD incidence help design new therapeutic strategies against the onset or treatment of CVD. In addition, dietary behavior, its importance, and the role that ω-3 FAs play in CVD in Gulf countries, mainly Saudi Arabia, are also discussed. The outcomes of this study concluded that much research has been done on the positive role of ω-3 FAs in lowering CVD incidence. Nevertheless, there is a need for device-specific recommendations of ω-3 FAs supplementation according to the region, as risk factors involved in the onset of CVD vary from region to region.
Propolis as an Immunomodulatory Agent: Evaluation of Antioxidant Activity, Cytokine Modulation, and Hematological Parameters in Albino Rats Infected with Escherichia coli
Authors: Abo Zaid Mabrouk
Published: June 2024

Background: Propolis, a natural substance produced by honeybees, has a rich history in traditional medicine due to its diverse composition of phenolic compounds, including flavonoids, aromatic acids, and benzopyran. This study aimed to assess the effects of propolis on the immune system, blood parameters, antioxidant levels, and antimicrobial properties against Escherichia coli in male albino rats. Methods: The experiment involved thirty male albino rats divided into three groups: control, positive control, and propolis-treated group infected with E. Coli. The rats were administered propolis extract (400mg/kg) once daily for four weeks. Results: The results demonstrated that propolis exhibited immunomodulatory effects by increasing lymphocyte percentages and enhancing the production of antibodies (IgM and IgG). It also improved haematological parameters such as haemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell count, and platelets. Propolis showed higher nitric oxide levels and phagocytosis percentages compared to the infected group. Additionally, it reduced serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-1β while significantly decreasing eosinophil levels. Propolis lowered serum malondialdehyde levels but decreased superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione levels in rats infected with E. coli. Conclusion: These findings indicate that propolis holds promise as an alternative or complementary therapy for managing bacterial infections, providing a natural and potentially effective solution. However, further research and clinical trials are required to comprehend the therapeutic benefits of propolis fully and its applications in human health.
Utilization Pattern of Dental Plaque Indices by Dental Professionals
Authors: Alasmari Dhafer
Published: June 2024

Background: Dental plaque plays a substantial role in the onset of oral diseases, particularly periodontal conditions. Various plaque indices (PI) have been introduced as valuable instruments for assessing oral hygiene competence. Despite their advantages, dental practitioners, including both dentists and periodontists, often do not fully harness these indices as part of their regular clinical practice. The aim of this research is to assess the usage of various plaque indices among dental professionals in clinical practice, dental educational institutions, and research environments. Methods: The current cross-sectional study was conducted among 100 dental professionals, aged over 18 years, using a convenience sampling method, with both genders included. The study participants were interviewed about the role, use, purpose, and type of plaque index through nine well-framed multiple-choice questions. Data were collected using Microsoft Excel and analyzed statistically using SPSS version 20.0 software. Results: In the present study, a total of 100 dental practitioners participated; 70% males and 30% females. Their ages ranged from 24 to 47 years, with a mean age of 28.51 years. A significant proportion, 83% and 94%, agreed on the importance of plaque indices in both periodontal practice and periodontal epidemiological studies, respectively. Regarding the frequency of using plaque indices, 44% of participants reported using them very frequently in dental school, 11% in clinical practice, and 38% in epidemiological research. Conclusion: The study found a notable disparity between high awareness (83% and 94%) of plaque indices' significance and their limited practical integration, with only 44% utilizing them frequently during dental school and a mere 11% in clinical practice, highlighting the imperative need for targeted interventions to enhance their routine usage.
Effect of Root Instrumentation on Fibroblast Viability: Hyaluronic Acid, Ethylenediaminetetra Acetic Acid (EDTA), and Enamel Matrix Efficacy
Authors: Felemban Baher
Published: June 2024

Background: Scaling and root planing (SRP) is an established and efficient procedure for treating periodontitis-associated compromised root surfaces. SRP raises challenges, such as forming a smear layer, increasing surface roughness, and potentially destroying the cementum layer, which can profoundly impact the behavior and attachment of fibroblast cells. In conjunction with SRP, various chemical agents have been employed as adjuncts to achieve an optimized surface structure conducive to fibroblast cell attachment. This study aimed to investigate the effects of SRP on healthy root surfaces with and without the addition of different adjunct root-conditioning materials, and to evaluate the varying impact on fibroblast adhesion. Methods: A total of 60 single-root teeth were collected from individuals who exhibited no signs of periodontitis. The preparation process of these teeth yielded 120 root samples in total. Soft tissue samples were procured from patients undergoing a crown-lengthening procedure. These samples served as the source for fibroblast extraction. The root samples were systematically divided into two primary groups, SRP and non-SRP, and were further categorized based on the duration of chemical root surface applications. The chemical applications included hyaluronic acid (HA), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), enamel matrix derivatives (EMD), and a combination of EDTA and EMD. Following the division and treatment, the root samples and extracted fibroblasts were cultured for a period of 72 hours. The adhesion efficacy of the fibroblast cells was evaluated through a cell viability assessment. Results: The comparative analysis demonstrated an increase in cell viability in the group without SRP compared to the group with SRP. This increase was significant across all groups that underwent different chemical material applications, for both short and long durations. However, when data from short and long chemical surface treatments were compared, no statistically significant differences were observed among the treatment groups. This was the case regardless of whether the comparison was made within the non-SRP or SRP groups independently. Conclusion: SRP significantly influenced the effectiveness of surface conditioning agents. The combination of SRP with root-conditioning materials resulted in a significant reduction in fibroblast attachment compared to using the root-conditioning materials alone.

Authors: Babgi Walaa , Felemban Baher
Published: June 2024

Background: Early peri-implant complications may appear within a couple of weeks following implant installation. Such complications may compromise implant success and longevity. Prompt identification and treatment of these complexities can prevent complications and implant failure. Case presentation: The study involved two patients referred for implant therapy owing to tooth loss, with no significant medical history. Both patients underwent thorough periodontal and radiographical evaluation to assess the suitability of implant placement. The first patient, a healthy non-smoker, received a Bio horizons implant, while the second, a smoker, received a Nobel implant. Three weeks post dental implant placement, both patients experienced early complications, presenting with swelling and discomfort. Surgical intervention included anesthesia, flap elevation, granulation tissue removal, mechanical cleaning of the im-plant surface using a titanium brush, and filling of bone defects with grafting material (mixture of allograft and xenograft). Postoperative care included antibiotics, pain management, and oral hygiene instruction. After 4 months, the implants were uncovered, and the patients were then referred for the placement of implant crowns. Conclusion: The reconstructive approach employed in these cases appears to be an effective method for managing early biological complications following dental implant installation. The successful restoration of healthy peri-implant tissues was achieved, indicating the potential efficacy of this treatment strategy.

A study on impact of revolution of HRM, responsibilities of both organizational level and individual employee level with reference to Isthara parks private limited
Authors:   MBA & CMRIT
Published: June 2024

Abstract: The function of personnel specialists, line managers, and an organization's ability to create and implement people management policies throughout the whole enterprise are all significantly impacted by devolution. Businesses that use a devolution plan run a significant risk since they are giving managers, who may not have had any professional HR training, the responsibility for the "care and feeding" of their most valuable assets. The daily HR procedures of the company have a significant impact on its performance metrics. Large-scale environmental elements influencing HRM devolution practices are technical advancements, legal frameworks, and industrial dynamics. Businesses in highly regulated sectors or with volatile markets may approach HRM devolution differently than those operating in less constrained environments. Additionally, technology advancements in HRM, like as AI-driven analytics and HRIS (Human Resource Information Systems), which enable line managers to speed HR procedures and decision-making, have contributed to the devolution of HRM. Key Words: HRIS (Human Resource Information Systems), AI-driven analytics.

Objectives: To assess and compare short-term outcomes of patients who underwent posterior fossa decompression with and without duraplasty for Chiari Malformation Type 1 (CM1).Methodology: This retrospective cohort study was conducted at Khyber Teaching Hospital's Peshawar, Pakistan, in December 2023 after securing permission from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) with reference. We included patients who underwent posterior fossa decompression for Chiari Malformation Type 1 (CM1) over a one-year period from March 2022 to March 2023 at Khyber Teaching Hospital. Retrospective data of specified duration concerning CM1 Patient’s demographics, preoperative symptoms, surgical details including the use of duraplasty, and postoperative outcomes were extracted from electronic health records at Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar. Data was analyzed by SPSS27. Descriptive statistics were employed to summarize demographic characteristics and baseline clinical data and frequencies were reported.Comparative analyses between posterior fossa decompression surgery with duraplasty and that without duraplasty groups were performed using t-tests for continuous variables and chi-square tests for categorical variables.
Results: 52 patients were included in our study out of which 28 underwent posterior fossa decompression with duraplasty and 24 without duraplasty. 8 patients (15.4%) experienced postoperative complications. Cerebrospinal fluid leaks were observed in 3 cases (5.8%), all of which occurred in the PFD with duraplasty group. The mean length of hospital stay for patients undergoing PFD with duraplasty was 6.2 days (SD ± 1.4), while for those undergoing PFD without duraplasty, it was 5.4 days (SD ± 0.9).Conclusion: Posterior fossa decompression with duraplasty carries the risk of CSF leak so the preferred procedure for Chiari Malformation Type 1 is posterior fossa decompression without duroplasty. Those patients requiring posterior fossa decompression with duroplasty should be highly individualized.

The climate evolution across the Oligocene–Miocene transition has been studied through a 23.5 to 22 Ma succession in the eastern Ebro Basin, dated by magnetostratigraphy. The study is based on the δ13C and δ18O composition coupled with sedimentological analysis of a dominantly lacustrine and palustrine carbonate succession, focusing on the limestone facies. The deposits formed in alluvial plain, saline mud flat, and carbonate lacustrine and palustrine depositional environments. Changes in lake water level and hydrodynamics, and biological processes triggered the formation of distinct carbonate facies, causing isotopic differences among them. The isotopic variations likely reflect changes in the precipitation/evaporation ratio and temperature in the Ebro Basin that might be the regional record of the Mi-1 Glaciation. A change in variability in δ13C and δ18O and an inflection in δ13C mark the Oligocene–Miocene boundary (23.03 Ma). The decrease in δ13C and δ18O variability may correspond to steadier depositional, climatic and hydrological conditions through time.

Published: June 2024

Relacionar el patrimonio cultural y la geología de un territorio permite acercar a la población esta ciencia, que, en la mayoría de los casos, es menos conocida. En los Geoparques Unesco la interacción con la población y las entidades locales es fundamental para establecer proyectos de desarrollo y conservación, sobre todo en zonas despobladas. Por este motivo las actividades de divulgación son esenciales. Este trabajo presenta dos talleres realizados en dos iglesias, situadas en el Valle de Valdelucio del Geoparque Unesco Las Loras, como ejemplo de divulgación geológica en torno al patrimonio cultural en una zona con alta tasa de despoblación. Este tipo de actividades ofrece a los lugareños y visitantes una perspectiva del entorno novedosa, geológica, que compagina con el patrimonio cultural y realza el valor de la zona.
Estructuras microbianas en la Laguna de La Playa (Bujaraloz, NE España)
Authors: Membrado Royo Inés , Gisbert Aguilar Josep
Published: June 2024

Describimos la presencia de matas microbianas en la Laguna de La Playa que condicionan la formación de determinadas estructuras que aparecen sobre su superficie. Estas estructuras, denominadas petees, se pueden clasificar en función de su morfología y origen. Así, se han clasificado en tres tipos diferentes y pueden estar formadas por la acción del viento sobre las matas microbianas poco desarrolladas (alpha-petees), por la acción conjunta de la acumulación de gases y la precipitación evaporítica sobre las matas (beta-petees) y por la expansión lateral producida por el crecimiento cristalino (gamma-petees). Los petees se distribuyen en función de las variaciones en el nivel del agua que inunda la salada en las estaciones lluviosas. De tal manera que en la zona NO, donde la lámina de agua se evapora antes, predominan los beta-petees y en la zona SE, donde el agua se acumula durante períodos de tiempo más prolongados, predominan los alpha-petees. Los gamma-petees se sitúan en la zona intermedia, donde la presencia de la lámina de agua es más variable. Durante las estaciones secas, la salada se seca por completo, dejando la mata microbiana expuesta a los procesos de precipitación evaporítica.
La Fosa de Morés (Cordillera Ibérica): extensión triásica e inversión cenozoica
Authors: Lázaro-González Raúl , Liesa Carlos L.
Published: June 2024

La Fosa de Morés (Rama Aragonesa de la Cordillera Ibérica) está rellena por materiales de edad triásica (facies germánica) que se superponen discordantes sobre materiales paleozoicos plegados y fracturados. La cuenca está delimitada por dos grandes fallas de dirección NW–SE, la falla normal de Purroy, invertida localmente, y la falla inversa de Inogés. Pliegues, cabalgamientos y fallas normales de dirección similar se observan dentro de la cuenca. Los cortes geológicos y los datos de estratificación y fracturación han permitido dar una interpretación de las diferentes estructuras de los márgenes de la cuenca. Una primera etapa extensional triásica dio lugar a fallas normales sinsedimentarias, como la falla de Purroy, y estructuras en horsts y grabens a escala mesoestructural. Una segunda etapa, de carácter compresivo, produjo en el Cenozoico la reactivación de fallas con componente inversa y la formación de pliegues.
Comportamiento de los metales en un estuario afectado por drenaje ácido de mina durante un ciclo mareal (estuario del Río Tinto, SO España)

El estuario del Río Tinto está gravemente afectado por drenaje ácido de mina. En este trabajo se estudia el comportamiento de los metales en las fases particulada y disuelta durante la mezcla de agua ácida fluvial y agua alcalina de mar a lo largo de un ciclo mareal. Los valores de pH oscilaron entre 4,0 con la bajamar y 6,3 con la pleamar. Durante la subida de la marea se produce una intensa precipitación de fases minerales de Fe y Al que pueden retirar de la disolución As y parte del Cu, Y y REE respectivamente. El As previamente retenido aumenta su proporción en la fase disuelta por encima de pH ~ 5,4 probablemente debido a procesos de desorción. Otros elementos como Co, Cd, Ni, y Zn se encuentran principalmente en la fase disuelta mostrando un comportamiento cuasi-conservativo. Durante la bajamar las concentraciones en disolución de todos los elementos analizados aumentan por la mayor influencia fluvial; sin embargo, las concentraciones de As aumentan también durante la marea alta evidenciando los procesos de desorción a valores de pH cercanos a la neutralidad. Comprender los procesos de sorción/desorción en estuarios es indispensable para predecir el comportamiento de los metales en estos medios.

Cognitive Implications of Polysemy in Bosnian Translations of Surah al-Balad
Authors: Tatarević Sinanudin
Published: June 2024

Using the descriptive-analytical method and grammatical analysis, this paper explores the phenomenon of lexical and grammatical polysemy in the 90 th Qur'anic surah al-Balad. Contemporary works from Cognitive Linguistics and the tafsir tradition form the basis of the research. Some key lexical units in this surah are characterised by polysemy, as observed by commentators of the Qur'an. The commitment to a specific semantic structure during interpretation can lead to semantic changes in the text’s higher structures. The paper’s aim is to present the cognitive implications of the use of such expressions, and to discover why Qur'an translators opted for specific interpretive matrices in the Bosnian language.
