Background: Psychotic disorder is characterized by cognitive decline that compromises functioning of the individual. Its symptoms include speech disorganization, psychomotor and behavioral changes, delusions, and hallucinations. The condition can be associated with dissociative manifestations. In the case of an acute psychotic episode, the causes are diverse and include trauma, substances, mood or schizophrenic disorders, and other physiological conditions. Psychological therapies are indicated for treatment. Case Presentation: A 45-year-old previously healthy man contracted COVID-19 at the beginning of 2021. The patient had headache, fever, pulmonary alterations, and taste and smell changes. After 5 weeks, the patient started to experience periods of mental confusion, disjointed speech, aggression, and psychomotor agitation, which progressively worsened. In view of drowsiness upon neurological examination and the lack of changes in other imaging tests, the patient underwent a PET/CT scan that showed cerebral hypometabolism in the frontal lobes, more evident in the mesial portion, including the anterior cingulate gyrus, and in the superior portions of the parietal lobes. Conclusion: We found a clear association between previous COVID-19 infection and the development of a psychotic episode with dissociative manifestations after a few weeks. However, more studies are needed to better elucidate the results.

Authors: Surajo Nura , Bem, A. A.  , Musa, D. D.
Published: July 2024

Study’s Novelty/Excerpt

This study is novel as it provides the first detailed examination of the antifungal and phytochemical properties of methanolic extracts from Vachellia seyal leaves against Phytophthora infestans, a significant agricultural pathogen.
By employing both GC-MS analysis and qualitative phytochemical screening, this research identifies a wide array of bioactive compounds, including terpenoids and flavonoids, which are linked to the extract's antifungal efficacy.
Furthermore, the study highlights the superior inhibitory effect of the methanolic extract compared to ethyl acetate extracts, underscoring V. seyal's potential as a source of novel antifungal agents for managing fungal infections.

Full Abstract
Studies looking at the presence of potent antimicrobial compounds in plants have been sparked by the use of plants and their extracts as treatments for various illnesses. The study aimed to analyze the antifungal and phytochemical properties of a methanolic extract of Vachellia seyal leaves on P. infestant isolated from rotten potato tubers. Following drying, the leaves were extracted using methanol as the solvent using cold maceration and percolation. To check for the existence of bioactive components, the extract underwent GC-MS analysis and qualitative phytochemical screening. The antifungal inhibitory activity of the leaf extract was assessed using agar well diffusion techniques. The results of the phytochemical screening indicated the presence of secondary metabolites, including terpenoids, tannins, phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, and steroids, in the leaves. Thirty-five (35) compounds were detected from the GC-MS study; based on their peak, six (6) were determined to be the most prevalent. These compounds include 9-Octadecenoic acid (Z)-, methyl ester (23.35%), Squalene (11.84%), 9,15-Octadecadienoic acid, methyl ester, (Z,Z)- (10.63%), Pentadecanoic acid, 14-methyl-, methyl ester (7.95%), (E)-9-Octadecenoic acid ethyl ester (7.19%) and Butylated Hydroxytoluene (1.85%). With a growth inhibition zone of 37mm, the results showed that the leaf extract of V. seyal was effective against P. infestant. The response of V. seyal may have been caused by the presence of phenolic compounds and acetic acid from the leaf extract. Additionally, methanolic crude extract was more effective than ethyl acetate extracts in controlling the activities of certain fungal pathogens. According to the study, V. seyal has antifungal activity and needs to be considered as a possible antifungal agent while looking for novel treatments for fungal infections.

Published: July 2024

Soil quality and health, in the environment of agrarian ecosystems, pose significant enterprises due to environmental decline and overreliance on chemical inputs. To address this challenge, there is a pressing need to borrow and incorporate an approach that combines both organic and inorganic sources of plant enriched. In pursuit of this objective, a field trial was led in rabi season 2023 to evaluate the synergistic effect of organic and mineral nutrient sources on soil characteristics and the growth and yield of wheat crops. The experimental design featured four distinct treatments planned in a randomized complete block design (RCBD), each with four replicates. These treatments involved the application of poultry manure at varying rates: T1 0 ton ha-1, T2 4 ton ha-1, T3 6 ton ha-1, and T4 8 ton ha-1. The chosen wheat variety for cultivation was Benazir. Notably, the treatment involving the application of 650 kg ha-1 of poultry manure alongside half of the recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer (Treatment 4) yielded the most promising results. This treatment yielded a wheat crop with a maximum plant height of 73 cm, an average of 14 tillers per plant, a spike length of 12.51 cm, and an impressive grain yield of 3268 kg ha-1. The grain yield was increased by 11.4% over the control treatment. Consequently, this study's findings suggest that farmers may benefit from adopting the practice of applying 650 kg ha-1 of poultry manure in combination with half of the recommended quantity of chemical fertilizer. Such an approach not only reduces the reliance on chemical fertilizers but also enhances soil quality and overall soil health. Soil organic matter was enhanced by 24% at the dose of treatment 4. Additionally, it contributes to lowering production costs and improving the livelihoods of small-scale farmers.

Published: July 2024

Speleonyms have a special place among opinions about the development and evolution of modern life. At the same time, their semiotic property is very strong, because a large amount of extralinguistic information is stored and accumulated in the form of codification in general onyms. The research aims to reveal the mythonymic and folklore image of spelenonyms in the works of A. Seydimbek. Taking into account speleonymic materials in the works of ethnographer-scientist, the semiotic aspects of speleonyms in toponymic space, the connection of legend and truth in toponyms with folk etymology, how the concept of space is established in the linguistic consciousness and linguistic image of Kazakhs is determined. An attempt is made to show the mythical image of the universe at the level of speleonyms (myphonims). Taking into account the fact that there are different scientific views on the concept of mythology in modern science, it is possible to reveal the mythonymic and folklore image of speleonyms. It was considered that speleonymic concepts form multi-layered diachronic and chronological levels. By uncovering, analyzing and describing those layers and levels, the importance of describing the mythonymic and folklore image of speleonyms was determined. Evidence was given that the acceptance of speleonyms in national knowledge is always carried out in the system of worldview associations characteristic of the historical and cultural community. In addition, it is reported that speleonyms (caves) in the Kazakh steppe need to be studied and widely studied in the future, as part of the knowledge of nature, preservation of the ancient names of this natural environment is included.
Are Human Rights Universal?
Authors: Al-Fahad Fahad A. S
Published: July 2024

In this essay, I will argue that "human rights are not universal" by analyzing the human rights discourse and the narratives that control it. Challenging the claim of universality will be highlighted from three different angles. First, the essay argues that the experience of women is often overlooked in the human rights narrative; making it non-inclusive. Furthermore, the second major issue with human rights universality is that such a claim is driven by western liberal thought that has hegemonic agenda instead of universal purposes. Finally, the third dimension that I will focus on in this essay is the strong presence of neoliberal ideas in the human rights discourse which aim at serving the interests of the few elites rather than all people around the globe. Before going into the analysis, I will start by explaining a key term in this essay which is the “universality” of human rights by shedding the light on the context of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR).

A Study on the Location Error Reduction Method of GPS-based Augmented Reality App.: A Research Focused on Miracle Game
Authors: Lim Jia ,   Global Knowledge and Convergence Association
Published: July 2024

This paper investigates the incremental “distance difference” between the point on a display where an object should be created to where it is actually created on GPS-based AR (Augmented Reality) apps. This virtual gap, however small, is an issue for accuracy and user satisfaction. To correct this inaccuracy, a reduction method is offered here to reduce it. To this end, the researcher has developed a prototype AR game called “Miracle” to simulate adjustment differences through the basic game premise where the user saves cartoon ducks through location hunting. The impetus, therefore, for developing this game takes a different anaytical direction compared to other analyses of the social, cultural or political elements found in the popular AR mobile game “Pokemon Go” developed in 2016. By focusing specifically on GPS and topographical methods, this article will elaborate and offer solutions to spatial, programming, and technological glitches that made game play difficult on “Pokemon Go.” To enable this outcome, a series of tests were administered by the author through their amateur build “Miracle” game. After several tests were concluded the results offer several solutions through an error reduction method.

Authors: Shin Heekyung ,   Global Knowledge and Convergence Association
Published: July 2024

Jeju Island is an international tourist destination in name and reality, but compared to nature tourism content, the number of humanities tourism content utilizing history and relics is insignificant. The Jeju Literature Museum is meaningful as a tourist content that shows Jeju’s identity by using Jeju literature containing myths and legends, history and reality, life and culture. However,『 Baebijangjeon』, the only classical novel set in Jeju, Jejumok government office, and Jeju, is excluded. In this regard, there is a need to induce pride and interest in『 Baebijangjeon』, which is set in Jeju, and develop original tourism content for Jeju Mokgwana.
This study aims to develop tourism content using the classic novel 『Baebijangjeon』, mainly set at Jeju Mokgwana. To this end, we spread awareness of Jeju’s representative novel, Baebijangjeon, and cultivate the history and importance of Jeju Mokgwana as a tourist destination. Currently, most major government offices lack accessibility as tourist destinations, have problems with proximity, and lack original content. In comparison, the Jejumok government office has high accessibility and proximity. And it is advantageous to utilize the historical and cultural significance of the place as the background of the novel『 Baebijangjeon』.『 Baebijangjeon』 is content that satirizes government officials with the people of Jeju as the subject, and by taking advantage of the fact that it has pansori-like characteristics, we can devise a plan to link the Jejumok government office with『 Baebijangjeon』 with tourism. First, it will create a separate exhibition space for works in the Gyobangji area inside the Jeju Mokgwana. In the exhibition room, it is proposed to display the book 『Baebijangjeon』, the main contents of Baebijangjeon, and Jeju-related contents of『 Baebijangjeon』. Second, it is proposed to be a permanent performance of Madanggeuk, a dramatization of『 Baebijangjeon』. Third, it is proposed to reproduce the Jeju Moksa procession.
Our proposal highlights the difference between government agencies in other regions through a unique form of tourism content that combines government agencies and literary works. In addition, by utilizing historical relics, it responds to recent changes in tourism behavior of exploring and experiencing cultural relics. Producing and holding local events or festivals, such as Madanggeuk, can revitalize performing arts in the Jeju region and promote the revitalization of related cultural industries and the local economy. Also, it means supporting the economic activities of the local workforce by increasing the number of associated curators and resident personnel at government office exhibition halls.

This study analyzed how Chairman Kim Jong-un’s image has changed for North Korea’s New Year’s address TV broadcast from 2013 to 2019. In his first TV New Year’s address in 2013, Chairman Kim Jong-un showed an uneasy image due to his inexperience and lack of gaze, but since then, his appearance and attitude have matured and transformed into an image of a power heir. Through the introduction of broadcasting equipment, the use of press photos and videos, and the imitation of New Year’s address broadcasts in major countries, North Korea has diluted Kim Jong- un’s negative image and actively paved the positive image of the people. However, as shown in the image of Kim Jong-un on a white horse, North Korea’s personal idolization still remains, so there is a limit to seeing the change in the New Year’s address broadcast as a fundamental change in the North’s propaganda.
Are Short Sellers Informed Traders?: Focus on the Impact of Tax Avoidance Information on Short Selling
Authors: Kang Hyunjung ,   Global Knowledge and Convergence Association

Short selling, in Korean, has both positive and negative sides. On the positive side, it can help balance the information about a company in the stock market, making it more efficient and preventing stock prices from rising too much. This ensures that stock prices stay reasonable. On the negative side, it could lead to a situation where stock prices drop too much, causing problems in the market. Moreover, there’s a concern that individual investors might find it harder to participate compared to big institutional or foreign investors, making the process less fair for everyone.
Our study aims to figure out if short sellers use information about a company’s tax practices to make their trades. If they do, it could mean they are helping to make the market more efficient by reducing information imbalances. Our research results show that there is a positive connection between a company’s tax practices and the amount of short selling happening (both in terms of how much is traded and the value of those trades). This suggests that short sellers are indeed using information about a company’s tax practices, which is contributing to making the market work better.
Considering the ongoing debates about whether short selling is good or bad, it might be more useful to focus on making sure short selling is done correctly instead of completely getting rid of it. This could involve investigating and punishing illegal short selling, and giving more opportunities for regular people to take part in short selling. This approach takes into account short selling’s potential to make the market work better by reducing information imbalances and suggests that making it work better might be more helpful than just getting rid of it.
