Authors: Ogbeibu A.E. , Ehiorobo S.I
Published: December 2020

Water quality assessment was carried out within the 202 km2 Okomu National Park located within the 1,082km2Okomu Forest Reserve between January 2017 and December 2018. Water sampling was carried in ten compartments of approximately 1.6km2 each, covering Ponds, Stream and River, based on easy accessibility. No such study has been carried out for the Okomu Wetlands in the past three decades. Sampling protocols, laboratory analysis and quality control/quality assurance measures followed standard procedures. All physicochemical parameters showed significant (P < 0.001) spatial variations. The maximum and minimum values obtained for physicochemical parameters of the Okomu Wetland are 23.6 and 38.0°C air temperature; 21.0 – 38°C water temperature; 0.15 – 1.02m water level; 16.7 – 150.7mg/l total dissolved Solids (TDS); 0.5 – 18.8mg/l total suspended Solids (TSS); 0.2 – 14.8mg/l turbidity; 40. 0 – 307.4µS/cm electrical conductivity (EC); 4.4 – 6.7 pH; 0.02 – 0.14mg/l salinity; 0.7 – 5.5mg/l dissolve oxygen (DO); 0.5 – 3.8mg/l biochemical oxygen demand (BOD); 1.5 – 120.2mg/l chemical oxygen demand (COD); 23.8 – 593.6mg/l bicarbonates (HCO3); 69.9 – 245.3mg/l Chlorine (Cl); 0.02 – 0.59mg/l nitrite (NO2); 0.11 – 2.34mg/l nitrate (NO3); 0.04 – 2.11mg/l ammonium-nitrogen (NH4N); 0.05 – 2.96mg/l sulphate (SO4); 0.09 – 9.2mg/l phosphorus (P); 0.20 – 2.72mg/l sodium (Na), 0.03 – 1.32mg/l potassium (K); 0.88 – 5.88mg/l calcium (Ca); 0.13 – 3.1mg/l magnesium (Mg); 5.8 – 18.9mg/l iron (Fe); 0.04 – 1.1mg/l manganese (Mn); 0.02 – 0.09mg/l copper (Cu); 0.93 – 6.0mg/l zinc (Zn); 0.01 – 2.9mg/l lead (Pb); 0.01 – 0.18mg/l cadmium (Cd); 0.06 – 4.0mg/l chromium (Cr); 0.01 – 0.15mg/l nickel (Ni); 0.01 – 11mg/l vanadium (V). Air and water temperatures were mostly influenced by forest canopy cover. pH levels indicate that the water bodies within the forested wetland are slightly acidic. Higher DO values were recorded in the Arhakhuan Stream and Okomu River (Agekpukpu and Iron bridge) than in the temporary ponds. BOD levels of greater than 1mg/l were observed which is indicative of slight levels of organic pollution. Higher concentrations of TDS, TSS, turbidity, EC, Colour, HCO3, NH4N, NO2, NO3, P, Na, K, Ca Mg and heavy metals were recorded in the temporary ponds than in the Stream and River. Research on water bodies within wetlands should be carried out routinely in order to monitor changes in the water conditions that could occur overtime whether natural or anthropogenic. This becomes even more pertinent in the light of glaring impacts of climate change and increasing environmental modifications.
PULMONARY REHABILITATION PROGRAM – AN IMMINENT NEED FOR COPD
Authors: Saleem Saad
Published: December 2020

PR program is currently being offered in a number of hospitals in Pakistan but unfortunately, ATS/ERS defined PR programs, as structured in the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) guidelines are beyond the resources of health–care organizations and, consequently, are inaccessible or unavailable to the majority of the COPD patients. Moreover Pakistan has inadequate funds for patient care and is also deficient in the logistics for complex and multidisciplinary programs of PR according to the suggested guidelines. Hence, there is a need for more authenticated and basic programs that contain the essential components of pulmonary rehabilitation.

The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to determine the prevalence of undiagnosed hypertension and associated risk factors among adults in Gajida town. The blood pressure (BP) of 364 participants was measured. Risk factors of high BP (age, gender, obesity, occupational stress, family history, educational level, dietary habits and smoking) were assessed. The data obtained was analyzed using both descriptive and interferential statistics. The descriptive (mean, standard deviation & percentage) and inferential (Pearson, Spearman & Mann-Whitney-U) statistics were used to summarize/analyze the data at P<0.05 using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) (version 16.0). Out of 364 participants, 185 (50.8%) were males and 179 (49.2%) were females. On average, participant’s age was 33 years, systolic blood pressure (SBP) was 110 mm Hg, diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was 80 mm Hg and BMI was 19.96 kg/m2. About 153 (41.9%) of the participants were housewives and 138 (37.9%) were not educated. Prevalence of undiagnosed HTN was 23.6%. Gender, age, BMI, and educational level were found to be associated significantly (P ≤ 0.05) with HTN. Occupational stress, history of HTN, family history of HTN, dietary habits and smoking showed no significant relationship (p ≥ 0.05). A moderate prevalence of undiagnosed hypertension was found among adults in Gajida town. Hypertension is associated with gender, age, BMI, and educational level.

Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND AND AIM
Hip and knee OA has been ranked as eleventh maximum
contributor to global incapacity. The prevalence is expected
to increase up to 25.9% by 2040. Hip arthritis reduces the mobility
at the hip joint limiting flexion extension, abduction, and
adduction, internal and external rotation. Similarly knee pain
causes considerable disability among middle adult population
affecting both proximal and distal joint (hip and ankle)
respectively. Hence the present study aims to find out a
correlation between Hip Rotation Dysfunction and Knee Pain
METHODOLOGY
A cross sectional study was conducted on patient with hip
and knee pain of age in between 45 to 60 years. Ranges at
the level of hip joints were assessed using goniometer. Knee
pain was assessed using Visual Analog Scale.
RESULT
The result obtained from the study shows a moderate negative
correlation between knee pain and hip internal rotation,
r= -0.67 showing no significant correlation p=0.45. There is also
a weak negative correlation between knee pain and hip
external rotation, r= -0.37 with a p> 0.05.
CONCLUSION
The result obtained from the study concluded that no significant
co-relationship exist between hip rotation dysfunction
and knee pain, however more researches with larger number
of sample size is required to further evaluate the causal
relationship between the two variables.

Kehamilan usia < 20 tahun dan > 35 tahun dengan paritas grandemulti dapat menyebabkan terjadinya BBLR. Usia dan paritas bukanlah penyebab utama dari BBLR, namun BBLR dipengaruhi oleh banyak faktor. Ibu yang berparitas tinggi dapat mengalami gangguan pada organ reproduksi khususnya pada alat kandungannya serta adanya gangguan pada pembuluh darahnya. Maka dari itu hendaknya seseorang merencanakan kehamilan pada usia reproduksi sehat yaitu usia 20 - 35 tahun untuk mengurangi kemungkinan terjadinya masalah-masalah pada saat kehamilan. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui hubungan usia dan paritas ibu dengan insidence dan derajat BBLR di RSUD Kabupaten Kediri. Desain penelitian korelasional dengan pendekatan cross sectional, menggunakan data rekam medik. Populasi 2399 dengan menggunakan teknik simple random sampling dan memperhatikan kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Diperoleh sampel sebanyak 96, sampel diperoleh dengan perhitungan menggunakan rumus besar sampel Nursalam. Uji statistik spearman rank dengan nilai ἀ 0,05. Hasilnya usia berisiko yaitu 31,3%, paritas berisiko yaitu 50%, sedangkan derajat BBLR yaitu 20,8%. Hasil analisis penelitian antara usia dengan insidence dan derajat BBLR (p value = 0,000 < 0,05) r =0,440), paritas dengan insidence dan derajat BBLR (p value = 0,020 < 0,05) r =0,236. Usia < 20 tahun dapat menyebabkan BBLR dikarenakan ibu hamil usia < 20 tahun rahim dan panggulnya sering kali pertumbuhanya belum maksimal. Sedangkan yang berusia > 35 tahun ada perubahan jaringan organ reproduksi dan kelenturan jalan lahir. Paritas dapat menyebabkan terjadinya BBLR dikarena paritas yang tinggi mengakibatkan kerusakan dinding pembuluh darah uterus sehingga mengganggu aliran nutrisi ke janin yang menyebabkan terjadinya BBLR.

O objetivo é analisar o processo de constituição do professor, suas adversidades e desafios para atuar na Educação Profissional e Tecnológica (EPT), bem como investigar acerca do que vem sendo publicado em relação a temática currículo e formação de professores no contexto da educação profissional. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura, cuja análise teve como base os argumentos de Moraes e Galiazzi (2007) sobre análise textual discursiva (ATD). Para a realização foram utilizados os descritores: “currículo” and “formação de professores” and “educação profissional”; “currículo” and “constituição do professor” and “educação profissional”; “currículo” and “docente da educação profissional”. Ao total, foram encontrados 657 artigos, no entanto, somente seis se aproximaram dos objetivos deste estudo e dos critérios estabelecidos. Os resultados da pesquisa mostram que a EPT tem se configurado como importante campo de pesquisa, e que existe um crescimento de produções acerca do assunto, no entanto, com poucos escritos no que se refere à constituição do professor da EPT.

В статье рассматриваются особенности развития саморегуляции на этапе младшего подросткового возраста; дан анализ литературы, касающейся сущности, природы и роли сознательной активности субъекта в саморегулируемой деятельности. Дан анализ понятия «саморегуляция» с точки зрения различных педагогов-психологов. Рассмотрены особенности развития саморегуляции учебной деятельности младших подростков в зависимости от системы обучения. Определяются психолого-педагогические условия, способствующие более эффективной организации процесса обучения. Актуальность темы обусловлена особенностями развития общества и требованиями, которые оно предъявляет к развитию и обучению подрастающего поколения. Рассматриваются особенности развития учебной деятельности школьников подросткового возраста. Сравниваются два периода в развитии ребенка – младший школьный и подростковый. Описываются психолого-педагогические аспекты, которые необходимо учитывать учителю при организации взаимодействия с детьми данной возрастной категории. Автором рассматриваются такие условия, как наблюдение за самим собой, оценка и реакция на самого себя. Перечисленные факторы характеризуют саморегуляцию и поэтому оказывают влияние на поведение субъекта, развитие всех необходимых ему в жизни навыков и успешность достижения поставленных целей.
УЧРЕЖДЕНИЕ МЕНОВОГО ДВОРА ДЛЯ АЗИАТСКИХ КУПЦОВ ДЛЯ ТОРГОВЛИ В АСТРАХАНИ
Authors: Оздамирова Э.М.
Published: December 2020

Меновой двор был создан в Астрахани в начале XIX в. как средство для регламентации торговли купцов из среднеазиатского региона. Эта попытка была предпринята государством в связи с тем, что открываются новые торговые пути. Такая ситуация сложилась с расширением границ империи.
Главным торговым агентом в восточном направлении в это время становится среднеазиатское купечество. «Воротами» в среднюю Азию в течение нескольких веков оставались Нижнее Поволжье и Астрахань.

В работе сделана попытка подробно рассмотреть и проанализировать понятие разделяющей поверхности. С понятием разделяющая поверхность непосредственно связаны представления об идеализированной системе сравнения и избыточных величинах, которые имеют специфические особенности, обусловленные тем, что их значения зависят от положения разделяющей поверхности. В статье дается подробный анализ выражения, которое позволяет вычислить расстояние между различными положениями разделяющей поверхности. Поверхностное натяжение расплавов этой системы было изучено нами ранее экспериментально, что позволило найти зависимость расстояния между различными положениями разделяющей поверхности от состава раствора. Показано, что вопреки существующему мнению о сильной зависимости расстояния между разделяющими поверхностями от состава раствора в изученной системе, отличия положения разделяющих поверхности друг от друга находятся в пределах нескольких межмолекулярных расстояний, т.е. хотя расстояние между различными положениями разделяющей поверхности и зависит от состава, но эта зависимость не выходит за пределы нескольких атомных слоев. На наш взгляд, этот вывод, имеющий принципиальный характер при анализе адсорбционных явлений, требует дополнительных исследований на большом количестве двойных систем, но эта задача выходит за рамки данного исследования.

ЖАН-БАТИСТ СЕНАК – ОСНОВОПОЛОЖНИК СОВРЕМЕННОЙ КАРДИОЛОГИИ
Authors: Гантамиров Т.Т.
Published: December 2020

Данная статья посвящена анализу жизни и деятельности выдающегося французского врача, члена Французской академии наук, одного из основателей кардиологии Жана-Батиста Сенака (1693-1770 гг.). Выявлен его научный вклад в становление и развитие клинической кардиологии. Изучено творческое наследие, изложенное им в произведении «Traité de la structure du coeur, de son action et de ses maladies» («Трактат о строении сердца»), в котором он глубоко исследовал проблемы анатомии, физиологии, мышечной структуры сердца и сердечно-сосудистых заболеваний. Рассмотрены основные факты его биографии. Отмечено, что учащенное сердцебиение, аневризмы, расширение и воспаление сердца, клапанное поражение и сгустки крови являются проблемами, остро волновавшими не только самого Сенака, но и его современников. Раскрыты используемые им новые методологические принципы изучения анатомии, физиологии и патологии сердца. В своем трактате он показывает состояние кардиологии до разработки таких диагностические методов, как перкуссия грудной клетки и опосредованная аускультация.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring polymer that is found in variety of tissues and biological fluids. Due to its unique properties such as biodegradability and biocompatibility, HA can be applied in fabrication of nanofibers for tissue engineering and wound healing. Electrospinning as one of the methods of creating such structures allows to obtain fibers and particles with nano- and microscale from polymer solutions utilizing the high voltage power supply. However, the electrospinning process directly depends upon different parameters, including physical characteristics of the polymer solutions. This paper reviews physical properties of aqueous-organic HA solutions considering their suitability for electrospinning

Standar kompetensi yang dimiliki kepala SMP berbeda-beda sehingga kurangnya pemahaman dan pengetahuan kepala SMP dalam tugas dan fungsinya berdasarkan peraturan menteri pendidikan nasional Nomor 13 Tahun 2007 tentang Kompetensi Kepala Sekolah.  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui implementasi standar kompetensi kepala SMP dan untuk mengetahui hambatan yang dihadapi oleh Dinas Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan dalam mengimplementasikan peraturan ini serta untuk mengetahui upaya dalam mengatasi hambatan tersebut. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Sampel dalam penelitian ini yaitu kepala dinas, pengawas dan kepala SMP. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa implementasi standar kompetensi  kepala SMP di Kabupaten Bungo sudah memenuhi standar kualifikasi umum 100 %, sedangkan untuk standar kualifikasi khusus sekitar 56%. Hambatan yang terjadi dalam implementasi yaitu kurangnya sosialisasi mengenai standar kompetensi kepala SMP, lambatnya informasi yang disampaikan, minimnya dedikasi dan tingkah oknum yang menghambat jalanya implementasi, dan kurangnya koordinasi antar birokrasi. Upaya yang dilakukan dalam mengatasi hambatan tersebut yaitu memperbanyak sosialisasi mengenai standar kompetensi kepala sekolah, menegur dan membina staff agar tepat waktu dalam menyampaikan informasi, memberikan insentif yang lancar kepada birokrasi, dan birokrasi dituntut agar bekerja sesuai SOP yang telah ada pada pekerjaan tersebut.
