The mechanism of parasite transmission as a tool of evolution and a criterion for a taxonomy of infectious disease
Authors: Kolpakov S. L.
Published: September 2022

This review discusses the principles of constructing epidemiological classifications of infectious diseases. A rationale is provided that taxonomy principles correspond to a combination of morphological and functional approaches. The former covers the shape and symmetry of parasites, while the latter is based on pathogen transmission mechanisms or the ‘function-and-energy’ approach. The idea that pathogen transmission mechanisms are an evolutionary tool implemented in the epidemic process is discussed. Transmission mechanisms are classified into those ensuring reproduction – hereditary, vertical, and contact, those supporting metabolic processes – necrophage, water-soil, and carnivorous for animal and plant infections, as well as those enabling transmission (for animals and humans) – fecal-oral and aerosol. As an example, a hypothetical model of the evolution of viruses based on their transmission mechanisms is substantiated.

Authors: Pavlyushchenko L. V. , Filimonova E. E. , Sorokin E. L.
Published: September 2022

Aim. To study the frequency and structure of hepatitis and cirrhosis among ophthalmic surgery patients.

Material and methods. Among 1706 ophthalmic surgery patients, 43 patients with chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis were selected. A clinical assessment of the etiology and severity of their condition was carried out and the possibility of performing ophthalmic surgery was determined.

Results. The average age of the patients included in the study comprised 64.1 ± 9.7 years, with 72.1% of the patients belonging to the elderly age group. 88.4%, 9.3%, and 2.3% (one patient) of the patients suffered from viral hepatitis (B, C, chronic HBV and HCV coinfection), toxic hepatitis, and autoimmune hepatitis, respectively. Among hepatitis patients, HCV monoinfection prevailed (55.4%). The majority (97.7%) of patients demonstrated minimal disease activity. Although violations of the hemostatic system were detected in nine patients, signs of significant hypocoagulability were observed in three patients (6.9%). Following a 3-day course of intramuscular vitamin K injections 2 to 3 times per day, these three patients underwent successful ophthalmic surgery. Out of 97.7% of patients admitted to surgery, 39 people were operated in a planned manner and 3 people required medical preparation. In one patient with suspected acute viral hepatitis B, planned surgical treatment was postponed.

Conclusions. The share of patients with hepatitis and cirrhosis in the general structure of ophthalmic surgery patients comprised 2.5%. Among them, viral hepatitis B and C prevailed (88.4%) with dominated HCV monoinfection (55.4%). The vast majority of patients (97.7%) showed minimal hepatitis activity; 6.9% had signs of significant hypocoagulability, thus requiring preoperative medical preparation.

Authors: Chaity Zarin Yesmin
Published: September 2022

Migration is influencing people’s livelihood choices as well as their household arrangements in various ways. This research aims to explore the livelihood changes and shifts in household structures and management systems among the families of migrating people through a gender lens. In this qualitative research systemic literature review and content analysis, methods have been used to fetch the secondary data for analysis. The discussion section shows that losing traditional livelihoods, men are shifting to day labour, rickshaw pulling, or other alternative sources of livelihood and women are increasingly engaging in agriculture, garments, or domestic work. Therefore, people’s migration to other areas restructuring household structures. This study found some emerging structures of households, such as families of women with children, grandparents with grandchildren or group living of working girls in their working areas. These changing structures are also impacting gender roles and interactions within families as well as society. Findings show that, where male members migrate outside and/or women engage in income-generating activities, women enjoy more mobility, bargaining and decision-making powers, economic freedom, and exercise their agency. However, the benefits of migration and new householding structures have some associated costs along with some dilemmas and subverting aspects.
Service Quality and Brand Experience as Factors Affecting Repurchase Intention through Word of Mouth in a Mexican Hotel Chain during the Pandemic Covid-19
Authors: Santarriaga María de Los Dolores , Soto Francisco Carlos
Published: September 2022

Prior empirical research suggests that guests visiting a hotel chain during the Covid-19 pandemic are susceptible to have future behavioral intentions such as repurchase intention provided that they perceived a high service quality from the hotel chain. While service quality is important, also the paper discuss the relevance of brand experience define by (Brakus et al., 2009; Meyer & Schwager, 2007) “as consumers’ internal subjective and behavioral responses induced at different levels of interaction, both direct and indirect, with brand-related stimuli” and repurchase intention through word of mouth. We develop a conceptual model base on prior research (Gómez-Suárez. and Veloso, 2020; Prabowo, Astuti, and Respati, 2020). A quantitative research method was used; 351 useful questionnaires were obtained from three different locations of the Mexican Hotel Chain located in the Pacific Coast during the pandemic. Our results provide confirmation that positive evaluations of the service quality and a favorable brand experience increases behavioral intentions such as repurchase intention through word of mouth.

Panamanian composer Roque Cordero (1917-2008) is known for his use of twelve-tone technique but also for the incorporation of Panamanian music into his compositions. However, his methods for doing so have largely remained unstudied. This article examines the methodic juxtaposition of dodecaphonic technique and Panamanian elements in Cordero’s Rapsodia Panameña (1988) for unaccompanied violin. An analysis of the work, informed by a survey of Panamanian traditions and previous works for violin by Cordero, reveals how the composer weaves together a twelve-tone row and diatonic material built from deconstructed traditional elements through a series of strategies guided by a unified pitch center. The article further discusses Cordero’s “musical Panama” and how his youthful experiences with popular music and the study of Narciso Garay’s transcriptions contributed to his methods.

Globodera rostochiensis is one of the 100 most dangerous invasive species in Russia, causing significant damage to agriculture. In Russia, this nematode was first founded in Kaliningrad Region in 1949. In this study, we used ensemble modeling (ESDM) methods to predict the potential distribution of G. rostochiensis in Russia and found that with changes in global climate and land use in the future, there would be a tendency to expand the range in two directions - from the south to the north and from the west to the east. The history of the distribution of the species on the territory of Russia, the current and potential ranges of the species from 2020 to 2100 with a step of 20 years in the implementation of various models and scenarios of climate change and land use are presented. Information on native range, features of biology, signs of host plant damage and injuriousness of G. rostochiensis , methods of pathotypes identification, invasion vectors, and control measures are shown. The predicted ranges of the species are important for the development of measures to minimize future invasion of G. rostochiensis and their negative consequences
THE DYNAMICS OF TREMATODE PREVALENCE IN TWO PERMANENT SETTLEMENTS OF THE PONTO-AZOV MOLLUSK LITHOGLYPHUS NATICOIDES (C. PFEIFFER, 1828) (GASTROPODA, HYDROBIIDAE) AT THE NORTH-EASTERN BORDER OF ITS RANGE

The freshwater gastropod mollusk Lithoglyphus naticoides (C. Pfeiffer, 1828) is one of the most successful invasive species in waterbodies of the Volga River basin. One of the negative consequences of its spread is range expansion of trematode species, some of which are highly pathogenic for fish, fish-eating birds and mammals. The aim of this study is to analyze the formation features of the trematode fauna in settlements of L. naticoides at the north-eastern border of its range (the Rybinsk Reservoir). It is found that the formation of the first permanent settlement of L. naticoides took place in 2005-2010 in coastal shallow waters in the lower part of the Volga reach of the reservoir. There was no rapid spread of the mollusk throughout the entire water area of the reservoir outside the Volga reach zone with a relatively high mineral content of water. However, in 2011-2019, the formation of a new large settlement of L. naticoides was recorded in the upper part of the Volga reach characterized by faster flow. A relatively low density of mature individuals in the settlements of L. naticoides (up to 50 ind./m) makes it possible for at least five trematode species to complete their life cycle: Apophallus muehlingi (Jägerskiöld, 1899), Apophallus (= Rossicotrema ) donicus (Skrjabin et Lindtrop, 1919), Parasymphylodora markewitschi Kulakowskaja, 1947, Nicolla skrjabini (Iwanitzky, 1928), Sanguinicola volgensis (Razin, 1929). The prevalence of parthenitae of certain species depends on the reservoir water level regime but the overall infection of L. naticoides can exceed 90%. The slow-flowing lower part of the Volga reach is characterized by the dominance of P. markewitschi and trematodes of the genus Apophallus , but N. skrjabini and S. volgensis dominate in the upper section, which is close to the river type. In the future in the Rybinsk reservoir, we can expect naturalization of other trematode species associated with L. naticoides within its range.

Authors: Volodchenko A. N.
Published: September 2022

The emerald ash borer, Agrilus planipennis , which is native to East Asia, is a highly destructive pest of ash trees ( Fraxinus sp.) in European Russia and North America. This quarantine species is currently spreading in the European part of Russia and in the east of Ukraine. The purpose of this study is to determine the distribution of the species in the south-east of the main part of the invasive range. The material is collected in the Tambov, Voronezh and Volgograd regions of the European part of Russia in 2021. The pest has spread to the central areas of the Tambov region, has almost completely populated the Voronezh region and has penetrated into the north-western part of the Volgograd region. Findings of Agrilus planipennis have shown that the invader continues to spread to the southeast of the European part of Russia. Agrilus planipennis is already located in the immediate vicinity of the regions of the European part of Russia, in which the common ash occupies the largest share in the forest fund. Further expansion will cause significant ecological and economic damage.

Speculation in commodity market is an important indicator that affects the prices of the commodities. Speculation is known as the purchase of a good for resale, or for temporary sale of a good with the purpose of repurchasing it later by hoping that earning profit from an interceding price change. Normally, excessive speculation in commodity market pushes up the prices and speculation create more fluctuations in prices. In this background, the studies focus on trend of speculation in gold future returns and also assess the short – run relationship between Gold futures returns and Speculative ratio. The data have been obtained from the MCX website. The statistical and econometric tools, such as, descriptive statistics, OLS Regression Model and Granger causality tests have been applied to analyze the data. The result of the study reveals that, time trend affects the speculation and there is no short run relationship between Gold futures returns and Gold Speculative ratio. Hence, it is proved that speculation is independent of futures price.

Hellenized Jews for the Greek Word Ἑλληνιστὰι in the Indonesian Bible: A Semantic Study
Authors: Karman Yonky
Published: September 2022

The meaning of the neologism Ἑλληνιστὰι in the New Testament (Acts 6:1; 9:29; 11:20), although only three times, is not as simple as one might think. The Indonesian Bible (TB, BIMK) defines its first two usages as linguistic differences (“Greek-speaking Jews”). The third usage is not even clear whether it is the category of descent (“Greeks”) or religious (“non-Jewish peo­ple”). There is a tendency for Ἑλληνιστὰι to be translated non-uniformly, but there is also a uniformity. In the context of this word study, the first step is to determine Ἕλληνες as the root and origin of Ἑλληνιστὰι. Since the semantic meaning of Ἕλληνες includes Greeks by descent and Greeks culturally, the second step is to examine the consistency of the differentiation of Graeci and gentiles in the Vulgate for both Greekishness. The fact that Ἑλληνιστὰι trans­lations are so varied makes the final step nec­essary, namely to reinterpret the word in its context. As a result, neologism is needed for Indonesian vocabulary: “Helenis” (or Hellenist) for cultural Ἕλληνες and “Yahudi Helenis” (or Hellenized Jews) for Ἑλληνιστὰι.

Published: September 2022

Most commonly, COVID-19 presents as a respiratory disease, but a growing body of clinical evidence shows that neurological symptoms and complications contribute significantly to the clinical spectrum of the disease, especially in patients with severe disease. The public health impact of the long-term (or even life-long) consequences of the disease may be much greater than the acute manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection. As the pandemic has evolved, the number of neurological manifestations as part of the clinical spectrum of the disease has increased. The diverse neurological manifestations of COVID-19 range from mild symptoms (myalgia, headache, fatigue, dizziness, anosmia, ageusia) to more severe manifestations such as encephalopathy, encephalitis, acute and chronic polyneuropathy. Neurological symptoms and complications of COVID-19 do not necessarily require direct infection of structures in the peripheral or central nervous system, but may occur secondary to a severe systemic reaction to SARS-CoV-2 infection outside the nervous system. The neurotoxicity of SARS-CoV-2 infection may be secondary to immune-mediated pathogenesis and coagulation dysfunction. To substantiate the therapeutic choice, it is necessary to study the pathophysiological processes and clinical trials.

Published: September 2022

Adverse drug reactions are one of the most complex and difficult diagnostic problems in the practice of allergists and clinical immunologists. This article presents a clinical case of a patient with an inborn error of immunity, known as common variable immune deficiency with the onset of the disease in adulthood and the presence of numerous infectious, structural, and immune complications. The patient had an adverse drug reaction represented by fixed drug eruption to the vital antibiotic therapy with ceftriaxone. We provide detailed information about this type of drug allergy and the structural features of cephalosporins and their cross-reactivity. In the diagnostic process, we ran phased drug allergy testing, including patch tests and a dose provocative test, which is considered a gold standard for this type of diagnostics. The diagnosis of fixed drug eruption to ceftriaxone and the absence of cross-reactivity to other cephalosporins in this patient were confirmed based on test results. Prohibiting the use of only one drug (ceftriaxone), which is especially important for a patient with primary immunodeficiency was made possible due to the compiled individual recommendations.
THE FEMINIST RESPONSES TO MARY WOLLSTONECRAFT: A READING
Authors: Anasuya Adhikari  , Dr. Birbal Saha
Published: September 2022

According to the well-known study on Wollstonecrafts reception in the early 20th century, some feminists embraced her unusual life experience as a personal model for their own experiments with, and literary reflections on, love, sex, and marriage. She frequently used the first-person plural to refer to herself as a part of the greater community of women who endure patriarchal oppression in A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. There is evidence that many intellectuals regarded Wollstonecrafts contributions to modern women largely from a biographical and literary standpoint. Examples include Virginia Woolf, Ruth Benedict, and Emma Goldman. Numerous important biographical studies of Wollstonecrafts life and literary critiques of her writing have been produced since the 1970s. The second wave of feminist researchers, however, were undoubtedly most influenced by this symbolic interpretation of Wollstonecraft as a personal figure. In this research paper, we aim to investigate the feminist theories of Wollstonecraft as well as her experiments with gender, life, marriage, literature, and society.

The underlying esoteric Ismaili doctrine in Abdullah Yusuf Ali’s translation of the Quran
Authors: Al-Hitari Abdussalam
Published: September 2022

Some researchers have identified doctrinal errors in Yusuf Ali's translation of, and commentary on, the Holy Quran. Ali's unconventional views have been attributed mainly to secondary reasons that do not fully account for his consistent departure from mainstream Islamic views on several issues such as prophethood, revelation and eschatology. It was hypothesized that Ali's Bohra affiliation informed his choices in the work under scrutiny. The interpretative qualitative approach is used. Select Ismaili/Bohra doctrines are used as a frame of reference. Representative examples of these doctrines were purposively identified in several suras (chapters) in Ali's work and examined for consistency. The extracted examples were analyzed in light of the selected Bohra doctrines. Results show that Ali's work is based on the esoteric Ismaili/Bohra doctrine and departs from  mainstream Quranic exegesis he claimed to have relied on. The study further finds that Ali's work belongs to the ta'wil (interpretation) genre of Ismaili literature. At best, Ali's work needs to be thoroughly revised and expurgated of the esoteric content in future editions.

Published: September 2022

The households’ socio-cultural characteristics are vital indicators of land use practices and human development. Attributes, for example, culture, education, and gender affect the tree species’ cover distribution. However, it is little known if they influence the dominant tree species diversity. The effort to alleviate low-level education, gender inequality accelerated by the local cultural beliefs and traditions has proved ineffective. This survey assessed the effect of culture, analysed the effect of education level, and evaluated the effect of gender on tree species diversity. A sample of 384 household heads was interviewed. A descriptive cross-section survey design and systematic random sampling were applied. Data sources were; Focus Group Discussions, key informants, observation, measurement, enumeration, and photography. Shannon Wiener’s diversity index was applied. Data was analysed using R statistics. Culturally non-adhering households t (363) = 2.62, p = .011, registered significant higher mean score (M = 1.49, SD = 0.82) compared to culturally conservative (M = 1.77, SD = 0.87). Households with higher education level registered (M = 2.02, SD = 0.12) which demonstrated lower score, compared to the households characterized by basic level of education (M = 2.43, SD = 0.26) with a significance of t (382) = 1.74, p =.036, There was insignificant mean score in species diversity contrast in the gender categories, t (382) = 0.639 p = .051, despite males (M = 2.40, SD = 0.26) attaining a lower diversity mean score (M = 2.43, SD = 0.12). The local dominant tree species’ diversity is affected by socio-cultural characteristics. Therefore, for the restoration and conservation of the tree species diversity, the socio-cultural functions should be addressed in the Ugenya Sub-County to attain net carbon sink prospects.

By observation and comparison, the author comes to the conclusion that the Council under the President of the Russian Federation for the Codification and Improvement of Civil Legislation is an effective social institution that organizes feedback based on the opinions of experts in the field of law. The transmission of a feedback signal through trade unions and employers’ associations is not able to give high results for the management of the rule-making system due to the existence of high requirements imposed by life on the quality of draft laws. Conclusions. In the presidential republic, the improvement of legislative work is possible through the organization of feedback – the creation of councils on the most important branches of law under the head of state.

Currently, the problem of prosecuting persons for cruelty to animals is actual for many countries. Legislative regulation and attitude to the problem of animal protection is a certain indicator of the civilization of society. Historically, China has all the prerequisites for the formation of a developed system of protection animals from cruelty, but at present, according to international experts, the People’s Republic of China is practically at the very beginning of the formation of legislation on the protection of animals. Hong Kong and Taiwan, as two separate administrative units, have more progressive legislation in this area. The purpose of the article is to research the legal experience of the People’s Republic of China of establishing responsibility for cruelty to animals. The authors set the following tasks: to analyze the regulatory legal acts in the field of regulating the responsible treatment of animals in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan and to identify positive and negative trends. As part of the work on the article, dialectical, comparative legal, and formal legal methods were used. The research revealed problems in the legislation of the People’s Republic of China, as well as to establish a trend in Chinese society aimed at protecting animals from an ethical point of view, and not from an economic one.

Authors: Rahim Abdul , Fajar Rahim Muhammad Ibnu
Published: September 2022

Penundaan pemeriksaan perkara dengan alasan adanya sengketa pra yudisial atau prejudiciel geschil harus didasari pada argumentasi hukum yang jelas dan konkret. Penerapan prejudicial geschile sering dilakukan dalam perkara dengan objek tanah maupun surat-surat yang mendasari kepemilikan tanah. Berbagai peraturan di Indonesia yang mengatur prejudiciel geschil hanya memberikan kewenangan dan bukan kewajiban untuk menerapkan prejudiciel geschil. Apabila status keperdataan hak atas kepemilikan tanah belum jelas dan harus ditentukan oleh putusan perdata, maka pemeriksaan perkara pidana dapat ditunda menunggu putusan perdata. Sebaliknya, apabila dalam suatu hak kepemilikan atas tanah dilatarbelakangi kejahatan, maka putusan perkara pidana yang akan menentukan status keperdataan hak kepemilikan tersebut. Kerumitan dan problematika penerapan prejudiciel geschil membawa kewajiban bagi maka penegak hukum dalam menerapkannya harus mengedepankan prinsip kehati-hatian agar penegakan hukum pidana berjalan untuk mewujudkan keadilan berdasarkan peraturan perundang-undangan.

Abstract. The postponement of case examination on the grounds of a pre-judicial dispute or prejudiciel geschil must be based on clear and concrete legal arguments. The application of prejudicial geschile is often carried out in cases with land objects or documents that underlie land ownership. Various regulations in Indonesia that regulate prejudiciel geschil only give authority and not the obligation to apply prejudiciel geschil. If the civil status of land ownership rights is not clear and must be determined by a civil decision, the examination of a criminal case can be postponed pending a civil decision. On the other hand, if there is a criminal background in a land ownership right, then the decision of a criminal case will determine the civil status of the ownership right. The complexity and problems of implementing prejudiciel geschil carry an obligation, so law enforcers in implementing it must prioritize the principle of prudence so that criminal law enforcement runs to realize justice based on statutory regulations.

Published: September 2022

The study attempted to unravel the influence of occupational stress to employee performance. The findings revealed that 97.6% of respondents have experienced stress at their place of work. 60% of respondents attributed occupational stress to work overload, 31.7% reported stress arising from negative work relations, 21.9% reported role ambiguity and conflict as a source of stress and 14.6% reported long hours as a source of stress. Other minor causes of stress include lack of job security, low salaries, and facilitation, which in turn creates financial strains, hence the occupational stress. Findings further show that occupational stress has an effect on the employee at work. 51.2% reported a fall in their job performance as a result of stress, 29.2% reported psychological effects like mood swings, feelings of anger towards other employees, and frequent arguments with co-workers, and 19,5% reported physiological effects which include excessive perspiration, frequent headaches, and nausea coupled with fatigue. Occupational stress has an effect on the organization itself. 41.5% of respondents observed a decline in the overall performance of employees who experience occupational stress due to the delays observed in the execution of tasks at the organization. 26.8% reported a fall in timely and quality service delivery from the organization. A few respondents reported no significant effect noticed on the organization, in fact, it improved service delivery and performance. Using relaxation techniques like listening to music and watching soccer as a means of managing occupational stress, 22% of respondents utilized social support networks like counseling and interacting with colleagues, and 29.3% had to improve on-time management in order to manage occupational stress. The study recommends more personal and group wellness programs, improvement in workplace communication and working environment, redesigning of jobs and their description to reduce on job ambiguity hence managing occupation stress.

Due to the growth of the internet of things, applications, and smartphones, the food industry and online food delivery (OFD) applications have grown significantly. Given their rapid growth, food delivery businesses in Indonesia have a huge amount of space to grow. Proving that during the COVID-19 pandemic, the biggest routine expenditure by Indonesians was on food purchased through internet delivery services. The purpose of this study is to analyze the factors influencing the continuance intention to use OFD applications in Indonesia by using modified the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT2) Model, which includes Trust as an additional variable. The findings of this study reveal that the Indonesian people have a good attitude toward the continuance of the use of OFD applications. The R² value indicates that Habit, Social Influence, and Trust all have a 61.7% influence on the Continuance Intention to use OFD applications in Indonesia. Meanwhile, Age moderates Habit and Trust variables towards Continuance Intention; gender becomes a moderating variable on the Habit towards Continuance Intention.
ENHANCING TRANSACTION THROUGHPUT IN PUBLIC BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK USING NESTED CHAINS
Authors: MATTILA VILMA , DWIVEDI PRATEEK , GAURI PRATIK , AHBAB MD
Published: September 2022

In this paper, we propose a new transaction sharding technique that aims to improve the scalability of the 5irechain network. This sharding technique called “nested chain” can be easily implemented in a decentralized setting like the blockchain. The sharding technique reduces cross-chain dependencies by ensuring that all the transactions sent from the same address will be found in blocks along the same chain and there will be no possibility of double-spending of the same token in two different chains. Our technique does not require additional tokens and it operates only on the same token across multiple shards.
Reductive opening of a cyclopropane ring in the Ni(II) coordination environment: a route to functionalized dehydroalanine and cysteine derivatives

Published: September 2022

The involvement of an α,α-cyclopropanated amino acid in the chiral Ni(II) coordination environment in the form of a Schiff base is considered as a route to electrochemical broadening of the donor–acceptor cyclopropane concept in combination with chirality induction in the targeted products. A tendency to the reductive ring-opening and the follow-up reaction paths of thus formed radical anions influenced by substituents in the cyclopropane ring are discussed. Optimization of the reaction conditions opens a route to the non-proteinogenic amino acid derivatives containing an α–β or β–γ double C=C bond in the side chain; the regioselectivity can be tuned by the addition of Lewis acids. One-pot combination of the reductive ring opening and subsequent addition of thiols allows obtaining the cysteine derivatives in practical yields and with high stereoselectivity at the removed β-stereocenter.
