Authors: Akdag Turan , Tezcan Dilek , Unlu Ali , Onmaz Duygu , Ozel Zeynep
Published: June 2022

Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a progressive autoimmune disease characterized by lacrimal and salivary gland dysfunction. However, the underlying causes of the pathophysiology of SS disease are relatively unclear. New investigations suggest an association exists between the pathogenesis of SS disease and cytokines. This study purposes to investigate and examine the serum adropin and clusterin serum levels in patients with SS. A total of 88 participants, 44 patients with SS disease (2 men and 42 women) and 44 healthy subjects (2 men and 42 women) were enrolled in the study. Patients’ ages, age of disease onset, gender, SS disease duration, localization, and social history were recorded. Adropin and clusterin levels were determined using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. The adropin levels were measured as 110.43 ng/L in the SS patient group and 80.06 ng/L in the healthy control group. A remarkable increase was determined in terms of the SS group’s adropin levels compared to the healthy subjects (p=0.047). The clusterin levels were minimally higher in the SS patients compared to the non-SS patients, however, these differences were not statistically significant (p=0.110; 98.41 and 84.59 ng/ml, respectively). The average disease duration in the SS patient group was determined as 46.68 months. Also, the average Eular Sjögren’s syndrome disease activity index (ESSDAI) in the patient with SS was found to be 5.98. Elevated adropin levels were determined in the SS patients. Thus, serum adropin may be a potential biomarker of SS disease. To clarify these findings, further investigations are needed.

Authors: Gursul Cebrail , Akdemir Fazile
Published: June 2022

Methotrexate (MTX) inhibits mitosis by antagonizing the folic acid required for DNA synthesis. Since it is metabolized in the liver, it may cause toxic effects. In this study, the effect of barbaloin (BAR), an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory substance, against MTX-induced liver damage was investigated. Totally 18 animals were divided into control, MTX, and MTX+BAR groups. The study was terminated after liver and blood samples were taken. While liver malondialdehyde (MDA) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels raised in the MTX group compared to the control group, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities decreased. While MDA and MPO levels decreased in the MTX+BAR group compared to the MTX group, SOD, CAT, and GPx activities increased. The levels of blood aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase increased in the MTX group but decreased in the MTX+BAR group. MTX has toxic effects on the liver and this toxicity diminished with the application of BAR.

Published: June 2022

Depression, and anxiety are considered to be linked with hypertension. In our study, we planned to investigate association between depression /anxiety and hypertension (HT) in young patients . A cross sectional study was conducted .The study group consisted of 175 patients under 45 years of age with a mean arterial blood pressure above 130/80 in 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. The control group consisted of 125 volunteer health workers under 45 years of age with a mean arterial blood pressure below 130/80 in 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. All the participants were requested to answer the questions of 'Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale' (HADS). A score of above 10 was defined as depression or anxiety based on the chosen scale. In the study group ,the mean age was 38.15±4.62 years and the ratio of male was 45 % where as in the control group ,the mean age was 38.44±4.63 years and the ratio of male was %46. (P:0.537 for mean age, P:0.866 for the ratio of male ). The active smoking rate and the body mass index (BMI) value were significantly higher in the study group (p:0.005 and p: 0.029 respectively). The study group had the higher median anxiety score and depression score (p<0.001). Body mass index (BMI) (HR: 1.102, CI:1.014-1.199, p:0.023) HADS anxiety and depression scores above 10 (HR: 21.989, CI: 8.280-58.397, p:<0.001 and HR: 29.087, CI: 8.579–98.624, p<0.001 respectively) were associated with HT. In our study, the presence of depression/anxiety determined by HADS score and high BMI values were found to be associated with hypertension in patients under 45 years of age.

Background: Radiation therapy is considered important for the treatment of intranasal tumors in dogs and is believed to be essential for prolonging their survival.
Aim: We investigated the contribution of clinical staging to improving outcomes of megavoltage radiotherapy for canine intranasal tumors.
Methods: A total of 123 dogs with intranasal tumors were included in the study. Forty-eight dogs received orthovoltage radiotherapy after cytoreductive surgery (Group I), 21 received orthovoltage radiotherapy without surgery (Group II), and 54 received megavoltage radiotherapy without surgery (Groupe III). All cases in each group were classified into clinical stages 1–4, and the median survival time (MST) was compared for each stage in all groups.
Results: The overall MST was not significantly difference among Group I (325 days), Group II (317 days) and Group III (488 days), however, the Group III was prolonged than Groupe I and II. The MSTs for stages 1, 2, 3 and 4 were 597, 361, 267 and 325 days in Group I, and 633, 260, 233 and 329 days in Group II, and 931, 860, 368 and 176 days in Group III, respectively. The MST for stage 2 cases in Group III was significantly prolonged when compared with that in Group I and II; no significant difference was observed at other stages, however, the MST in Group III was longer in stage 1. These results showed that megavoltage radiotherapy prolonged the MST in dogs with intranasal tumors when compared to orthovoltage radiation with or without cytoreductive surgery, and that improvements in MST at stage 2 contributed significantly to this.
Conclusion: The improvement in the MST in dogs with stages 1 and 2 intranasal tumors highlights the importance of starting megavoltage radiotherapy in the early stages.

Vitruvius Without Text: The Biography of a Book
Authors: Tavares André
Published: June 2022

Vitruvius’s “De architectura”, written in the first century BCE, has been revered as the first treatise on architectural theory. Since its resurrection during the Renaissance, its enigmatic text has been adjusted, refined, and redefined in subsequent iterations. The book at hand bypasses exegeses of the text to focus on the material history of the printed editions disseminated throughout Europe. It surveys over a hundred editions of Vitruvius from 1486 to the present, tracing the power of the printed page in establishing the Roman author as an authority. Focusing on the impact of the physical objects that embody the Vitruvian canon highlights how book history and architectural history cross paths and how a symbiotic relationship between the printed and the built emerges. The resulting picture is that of a zigzagging thread between practice and theory, an elusive network of fruitful carelessness in architecture.
Knowledge of official ethical standards and tolerance towards corruption: An exploratory study

Corruption is often defined as a deviant conduct from established legal and formal norms and expected ways of behaving in the exercise of official duties and the discharge of official responsibilities. Readiness to tolerate corruption will hinge primarily upon the evaluator’s understanding of what those ethical standards are. This means that citizens’ willingness to accept corruption as something “normal” to the functioning of democracy or “beneficial” to economic development is likely to be affected by how knowledgeable they are about the ethical standards of governing public office. Such knowledge can be instilled by academic and experiential learning. So, we question to what extent citizens’ knowledge of official ethical standards affect their tolerance towards corruption? Based on new individual level data collected from six focus groups conducted in Portugal, we show a possible negative association between the appropriate knowledge of official ethical standards and tolerance towards corruption. The results are exploratory, but sufficiently interesting to test our hypothesis with a larger sample.

Authors: Itiowe Kiamuke , Adebayo Lucas Frank , Ugwu Ugwueze Charles , Lawson-Jack Osaki
Published: June 2022

Chemostratigraphic characterization and correlation was carried out on two wells in the Niger Delta with the aim to integrate chemostratigraphic data with already existing biostratigraphic information from the Niger Delta. Shale cutting samples taken within the interval of interest from both wells were subjected to inorganic geochemical and mineralogical analysis using energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence spectrometry (ED-XRF) and x-ray diffractometry, respectively. The key elements used for chemostratigraphic characterization and correlation for both wells were Al2O3, K2O, Na2O and Fe2O3. Four geochemical packages and three geochemical boundaries at depths of 8265ft, 9120ft and 10080ft were identified in #3 well, while two geochemical packages and one geochemical boundary at 4500ft were identified in the Sahaiawei-1 well. The primary mineralogical controls on the elemental variations identified in both wells were clay minerals (kaolinite, illite/muscovite, and chlorite), plagioclase, microcline, jarosite and pyrite. In this study, chemostratigraphic data was integrated with already existing biostratigraphic information, enabling the establishment of some informal geochemical markers in the Northern Delta and Greater Ughelli depobelts. Our research results will improve on the inorganic geochemistry and chronostratigraphic charts of the Niger Delta, and it will in future facilitate seismic interpretation and the identification of the Niger Delta petroleum play elements.

Superioritas Laki-laki atas Perempuan
Authors: Zaki M. Zaki Suaidi
Published: June 2022

The women's movement in Islam is in a dilemmatic position. One group thought there was nothing to argue about with women. While other groups consider the fate of women has not been completed. The first group views that Islam highly upholds the dignity of women. This group usually criticizes the Western-style women's movement which is considered un-Islamic. By stating that there are no similarities between men and women in any way. What exists is similarity in dissimilarity. Because even though there are many similarities that the Qur'an reveals, it turns out that there are many more dissimilarities. In principle, women and men are physically and biologically different. According to them, the best women's movement is the dedication of women in the household, helping husbands as defenders and guardians of family morality. Because the moral crisis that hit the younger generation is caused by the small role of women as guardians, educators and protectors of the household. While the second group, considers the problem of women's fate has not been completed. There are still many aspects that should receive attention. Theoretically and methodologically this group draws on concepts from the West, although sometimes without criticism. This is because Western feminism is more based on a paradigmatic and epistemological movement. However, ideally and normatively this moderate group still uses the Qur'an and Sunnah as the basis of its movement. Therefore, this group does not view the domestic role of women as a setback, as long as it is carried out not by force or coercion by men.

Thus, if a person feels unable to deal with situations that are considered difficult and lacks confidence in his own abilities, which means he has low self-esteem, this behavior is very likely to lead to social debut. worry. Therapy sessions help reduce and even eliminate this disorder. There are certain techniques that consist of dealing with the problem until the subject begins to feel comfortable with aspects of normal life that were formerly considered episodes of anxiety.

Revisiting the Description of Tense in English
Authors: Adejare Roseline Abonego
Published: June 2022

The controversy surrounding the description of tense in English has remained because scholars have concentrated on carving descriptive niches for themselves rather than paying appropriate attention to its causative factor(s), resulting in three different descriptions: traditional, structural, and systemic. This paper identifies the genesis of the problems, points out how this hinders the attainment of descriptive accuracy, and proffers some solutions. It contends that arguments, such as whether or not there is a future tense for English, stem from the way tense is generally conceptualised. It examined ten standard definitions of tense and found that the keyword grammaticalisation is narrowly interpreted to mean the morphological only, whereas a language’s grammatical system consists of both syntactical and morphological aspects. The non-recognition of the syntactical component—even by grammarians that acknowledge future tense—is the root of the descriptive issues with tense. The paper proposes syntactical marking, achieved by placing the auxiliary WILL/SHALL or BE GOING TO before the base form verb, as the mechanism for future tense marking in English. In effect, English has a three-tense system, and its modes of marking are morphological (for present and past tenses) and syntactical (for future tense).

Parlementair wangedrag

De huidige juridische infrastructuur om parlementair wangedrag dat verder gaat dan onparlementair taalgebruik effectief aan te pakken ontbreekt. Dat heeft enerzijds te maken met het feit dat fracties op dit punt vaak rechter in eigen zaak spelen en dikwijls meer bezig lijken met imagobescherming dan met een zorgvuldige afhandeling van klachten, en anderzijds met het feit dat klagen over grensoverschrijdend gedrag door mensen in een afhankelijkheidspositie thans weinig juridische waarborgen kent. Dit terwijl het ook voor beklaagde parlementariërs in de praktijk vaak aantrekkelijker lijkt om de eer aan zichzelf te houden en extern onderzoek niet af te wachten.

We conducted a comparative study of the effect of vitamin C (l-ascorbic acid) treatment on the yield of selected rice varieties grown in site-specific saline soil; the study area was Paluh Merbau, which is situated on the east coast of North Sumatra and has a salinity of 5.9 dS/m. Salinity causes osmotic, salt-specific, and oxidative stress, which negatively affects crop yields. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of l-ascorbic acid treatment on the yield parameters of eight varieties of rice grown on saline soil. This study was based on a randomized block design with two factors. The first factor was the rice variety (Ciherang, IR 64, Lambur, Batanghari, Banyuasin, IR 42, Inpara 10, and Margasari), and the second factor was the concentration of l-ascorbic acid (0, 500, 1,000, or 1,500 mg/L). The number of empty grains per panicles, grain weight per clump, and number of filled grains per panicles increased as the concentration of l-ascorbic acid increased. l-Ascorbic acid at a concentration of 1,500 mg/L exhibited the best results, and the grain weight of Banyuasin and Batanghari varieties was 33.22 and 30.18 g, respectively; however, there was no significant difference in grain weight between the varieties. Batanghari and Ciherang were the most salt-tolerant genotypes, with a high ability to produce high number of filled grains compared to other varieties. l-Ascorbic acid treatment can promote the yields of rice varieties grown under salinity stress.

Authors: Musa Laila , Kamis Nadzri Che
Published: June 2022

Recently, the whole world has been struck with an infectious disease called Coronavirus (COVID-19) that gave major impact to every sector as well as education sector. Most of the education systems in the world shifted to a fully online learning method, either conducted in a synchronous or asynchronous method including Malaysian education system. In reality, the academic session in the Higher Learning Institution continued with the new norm and online learning has been implemented to ensure smooth process of teaching and learning throughout the pandemic. This paper is conducted to examine the readiness of students for emergency online distance learning due to the
COVID-19 pandemic. Data collected from 2,917 students showed that generally the level of computer and internet literacy, self-dependent learning and motivation towards online distance learning is at a high level. Moreover, these three dimensions are significantly influenced with respect to their readiness of online distance learning in terms of computer and internet literacy, self dependent learning and motivation. Findings indicated that students were moderate to strongly ready for their distance online learning. This study highly contributes to future research by looking
at the needs and demands for the upcoming year for the whole world to shift to another phase of society development by implementing technology in daily life in facing a new norm.
Är moderskap djuriskt?
Authors: M Holm Ulla
Published: June 2022

Vad mödrar är och hur de bör vara är inte samma sak. Att föda fram och dägga en unge är bara en dimension av ett mycket vitt, vagt, poröst och väsentligen omstritt moderskapsbegrepp. I ekonomiskt bistra tider vinner emellertid sociobiologer och andra deterrninister lätt gehör när de reducerar alla andra dimensioner av moderskap till blott en biologisk funktion. Då är det inte längre tal om en normgenomsyrad mänsklig praktik. Snarare blir det jämförbart med husdjurskap.
Den moderlige mannen kvinnors ideal i tvåloperan
Authors: Liliequist Marianne
Published: June 2022

Moderligheten är ett viktigt attribut för kvinnorna i tvåloperan, även om det praktiska modrandet sältan får något utrymme. Den moderlige mannen är en flitigt förekommande idealbild, men han är inte mjuk och vårdande från början. Det krävs en särskild kvinna - den rätta - för att locka fram hans inre egenskaper!
Maria en motsägelsefull symbol för Latinamerikas feminister
Authors: Mulinari Diana
Published: June 2022

I Latinamerika förhärligas mildrandet samtidigt som mödrar av kött och blod blir diskriminerade. Politiseringen av modrandet och bruket av katolska symboler i kvinnokampen är explosiva reaktioner på detta dominansförhållande som på samma gång hedrar moderskapet och berövar kvinnorna makten som mödrar.
Feministiska författare i renässansens Venedig
Authors: Datta Satya
Published: June 2022

Tlie steady economic growth and development of the Republic of Venice over many centuries bad made it possible to become one of the greatest economic powers in Europé by the fifteenth century. This was very much due to its strategically situated harbour by which it became a centre of vital importance for foreign trade between the Orient and Europé, and between ihe Mediterranean countries and Western Europé. Customs and practices stemming from many different cultures thrived in this metropolis by the crossroads, which was held in great esteem because of the freedom, openmindedness and tolerance it offered the individual with regard to intellectual, religions and even political standpoints. Compared to other Italian city-republics, on the other hand, Venice did in fact show a great degree of political and social stability. However, it was the successful juxtaposition of many apparently contradictory elements in the social foundation of Venetian society that can explain the logic of stability. In the early sixteenlh century, Venice was the world's most important centre of book printing. The great humanist Aldus Manutius published many classical works both in original and in Italian, and also literature of high quality written by women. Many other publishers soon followed his example, and printed works by women writers. In 1600, the major feminist works of the poet Moderata Fonle and I.ucrezia Marinella, author of epics and polemics, were published in Venice. Somc decades låter came a number of well-articulated feminist writings by the nun Arcangela Tarabotti. The common denominator of these three authors is a clear and very deliberate feminist approach. They focused on the oppression of women within the family and in society at large, and demanded rights for women to study and get an education. They themselves had not had any possibilities to go to school. Yet, today's literary historians claim that all three of them were well-read and highly cultivated personalities in 16th century Italian literature. Many latter-day feminists see these three Venetian writers as very influential in the history of the struggle for women's rights.
Kampen om E 1027
Authors: Colomina Beatriz

On top o f a steep cliff, in a secluded spot some 90 ft above the Mediterranean, architect Eileen Gray designed and built a house for herself and Jean Badovici in the 1920's. She called it E 1027 - E for Eileen, 10 for ] which is the tenth letter of the alphabet, 2 for B and 7 for G. Some ten years låter, architect Le Corbusier lived in the house where he made eight mural paintings without asking permission by Gray who had then moved out. She was infuriated and saw the murals as vandalising graffiti. When l.e Corbusier published pictures of the murals in Oeuvre complete and L'Architecture cVaujtmrd'hui, he didn't even mention ber name. Låter on, the house and some of the furniture designed by Gray were said to be designed by him. l .e Corbusier has said that murals to him were weapons aimed at clestroying the architecture of a house, and he has described wall paintings as a hostile invasion of "the house of a stranger". I.ike all colonizers, however, he did not see the invasion as an act o f violence but rather as a present, a gift.
Butiken ett kvinnligt rum
Authors: Olofsson Anna
Published: June 2022

Every age htiilds its own monuments: palaces, chnrches, cathedrals. At the tum of the last century, business tycoons had the means and incendves to build "palaces". Architects were hired to design buildings which allowed them to experiment freely with glass, colours and patterns to create something out of the ordinary. The department store represented a new type of space. It was the first non-religious meeting place where respectable women could go alone without being accompanied by a man. They could go there with the purpose of shopping, in their new role as consumers. The importance of the department store for women's liberation in the USA is similar to that of the tearooms for the Suffragette movement in Britain. The shopping mall originates from two traditions: one is the fashionable shopping arcade catering for the affluent middle classes during the nineteenth century, the other from the department store which focused on selling mass-produced merchandise. The shopping mall presupposes the possession of a car and the idea of "one stop shopping". One has to drive to the shopping mall, but once there, one should be able to buy almost anything one wants. The architect behind the first American shopping mall was Victor Omen. He modelled it on the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan, Italy. The shopping milieus attempted at US highway crossings are artificial versions of the European inner city shopping districts. In Europé, there are certainly also shopping malls or gallerias, but they are there for a different reason than those in the US and North America. The European galleria attracts the buyers with a special atmosphere which reinforces thejoy of consuming, whereas in the US, the malls are built because there are not normally such concentrated shopping areas in the cities.
Äventyraren, passionen och kvinnan
Authors: Öhman Anders
Published: June 2022

This artiele deals with adventure-ideology and its role in the formation of male identity. Adventureideology is therefore crucial in determining relations beteween men and women. According to Michael Nerlich, who has studied the emergence of adventure-ideology, this ideology is a corner-stone of modernity in Western Europé. For the first time in western civilization, change is regarded as a positive value, and adventure entails the active search for change and the unknown. What Nerlich doesn't consider, however, is the role of woman in this transformational process. By relating the theory of adventure-ideology with the theory of the ideology of love, as it was developed by Denis de Rougemont, it is possible to find a connecting link between man and woman. One aspect of the ideology of love as it emerged in the middle ages, was that it obviously prepared the male for adventure. I.ove as passion is synonomous with suffering and disorder, and everything that is opposite to the routine of everyday life. 1 then examine two nineteenth-century novels from the viewpoint of adventure-ideology, and the ideology of love. In the first novel, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein or the Modern Prometeheus, I lind a high awareness of the importance of adventure-ideology in forming the relations between the everyday and the extraordinary, between common knowledge and new knowledge, and between man and woman. Mary Shelley definitely criticizes adventure- ideology from a woman's perspective, but she is also ambivalent. The second novel I examine was written in 1888 by the swedish author Bernhard Meijer, and is fairly unknown today. In this novel I find the basic characteristics of the male identity in the twentieth century, an identity which I call the frustrated adventurer.
