Structural indicators and toxic species of cyanobacteria of Pskov Lake
Authors: Drozdenko Т. V. , Aleksandrova S. M. , Antal T. K. , Tikhomirova E. I.
Published: December 2022

The cyanobacterial communities of Lake Pskov were studied in several seasons of 2021, and a comparison was made with the data of earlier studies. Data on the taxonomic composition and quantitative characteristics of cyanobacteria have been obtained, and some species toxic to living organisms are shown. 196 species taxa of phytoplankton in total were recorded at four permanent stations of the lake, 15.8% of which were cyanobacteria. The cyanobacterial communities were most similar in terms of the specific composition in summer and autumn. Some quantitative indicators of cyanobacteria, such as their abundance and biomass, were minimal and maximal in spring and summer–autumn, respectively. Toxic and potentially toxic species belonging to the genera Anabaena, Aphanizomenon, Lyngbya, Microcystis, Nodularia, and Nostoc were present among the detected cyanobacteria in each of the studied seasons of the year. The total contribution of representatives of these genera to the total abundance of phytoplankton varied from 4.0% in spring to 65.0% in autumn. In summer, the share of cyanobacteria from the above genera in the total number of microalgae accounted for ~40.0%. The greatest role was noted for the algae Microcystis aeruginosa (Kützing) Kützing, which causes “blooming” of reservoirs and also produces the toxin microcystin with hepatotoxicity. Any study of Lake Pskov requires constant monitoring of the content of cyanotoxins, especially in autumn, when the maximum biomass content of cyanobacteria, including toxic species, is observed, which may lead to serious consequences.
Distribution of crustaceans (Malacostraca, Arthropoda) in rivers of the semi-desert zone (with the example of the Volgograd reservoir tributes)
Authors: Kurina E. M. , Golovatyuk L. V.
Published: December 2022

As a result of our studies of the macro- and nectozoobenthos of the rivers of the semidesert zone (the Volgograd reservoir basin), 16 Malacostraca species were recorded, most of which are representatives of the Ponto-Caspian complex. Compared to the Volgograd reservoir, there is an increase in the quantitative indicators  of mysids and isopods and a decrease in the number of species, abundance and biomass of amphipods and cumaceans in the semi-desert zone rivers. The average abundance and biomass of crustaceans in the surveyed rivers are approximately 2.5 times lower than in the Volgograd Reservoir. Crustaceans of the Ponto-Caspian and PontoAzov complexes, as well as the isopods Asellus aquaticus (Linné, 1758) inhabit fresh and oligohaline waters, while the gammarids Gammarus lacustris (Sars, 1863) live in oligohaline and polyhaline waters. Amphipods are characterized by the largest number of species, which, taking into account their morphology and the type of substrate which they live on, are assigned to three ecomorphs, namely: clingers, crawlers, and diggers. No symbionts in the Yeruslan basin rivers were found. The noted amphipod ecomorphs are distributed relatively evenly with a slight dominance of crawlers (45%). It has been revealed that two types of crustacean cenoses are formed in the surveyed rivers. The first type is formed mainly by consortium interactions of the edificatory mollusks Dreissena with amphipods Chelicorophium curvispinum Sars, 1895, Dikerogammarus haemobaphes (Eichwald, 1841), mysids Paramysis ullskyi Czerniavsky, 1882, P. lacustris (Czerniavsky, 1882), and associated species. The second cenosis in the rivers is represented by a complex of small coastal mysid species Katamysis warpachowskyi Czerniavsky, 1882, Limnomysis benedeni Sars, 1893, and amphipods Chaetogammarus warpachowsky (Sars, 1894), the relationships within which are based on common biotopic conditions and feeding patterns.
Phenological changes in the wintering end date of Pelophylax ridibundus (Pallas, 1771) (Ranidae, Anura) in the Medveditsa river valley (Saratov region) under conditions of climate transformation
Authors: Yermokhin M. V. , Tabachishin V. G.
Published: December 2022

The time series of dates of the end of wintering and the beginning of spawning migrations of the marsh frog in the valley of the middle reaches of the Medveditsa river (Don basin, Saratov region) was analyzed. It has been established that in the period from 1892 to 2021, the phenological norm of this phase of the annual cycle shifted to earlier dates by an average of 6 days (from May 2 to April 26) against the background of climate warming. Possible consequences of this transformation of the spring phenology of anurans in connection with the changes established are discussed. Continued monitoring of phenological changes in the spring phase of the annual cycle is required to form a forecast of the population dynamics of this anuran species and the scientific basis for their conservation.

Di tengah kehidupan masyarakat Indonesia yang majemuk dari segi agama, pernikahan beda agama sangat potensial untuk terjadi. Namun hingga saat ini pernikahan beda agama masih menjadi perdebatan di kalangan umat Kristen. Rasul Paulus dalam 1 Kor 7:12-16 menyatakan larangan untuk menceraikan pasangan yang tidak beriman. Penelitian bertujuan untuk menggali makna larangan menceraikan pasangan yang tidak beriman tersebut dan relevansinya bagi umat Kristen di Indonesia. Metode yang dipakai adalah pendekatan kualitatif studi pustaka. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: 1) larangan Paulus untuk menceraikan pasangan yang tidak beriman karena keyakinan bahwa proses pengudusan terhadap pasangan tidak beriman tersebut dapat terjadi dalam pernikahan; 2) dalam kaitan dengan pernikahan, hal yang utama adalah terciptanya damai sejahtera; 3) pengajaran Paulus tersebut sangat relevan diterapkan di kalangan umat Kristen di Indonesia dalam bentuk penerimaan terhadap pernikahan beda agama, yang juga dapat dilihat sebagai bagian dari perwujudan damai sejahtera.
Kajian terhadap Tradisi Mohatu Suku Saluan di Desa Simpang II dari Perspektif Teologi Kristen
Authors: Bungalan Jhon Efrendi , Pasande Purnama , Ruindungan Leo Mardani , Parinsi Niel
Published: December 2022

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji dari perspektif teologi Kristen tradisi Mohatu yang masih dilaksanakan dalam kalangan suku Saluan di desa Simpang II. Tradisi Mohatu adalah upacara pelepasan arwah orang mati yang dilakukan enam belas hari setelah kematian seseorang. Upacara dilakukan dengan meletakan tujuh hingga sembilan jenis hasil kebun di atas kuburan almarhum/ah agar arwah tidak lagi datang ke kebun untuk mengambil hasil kebun yang dapat mengakibatkan petani gagal panen. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah etnografi  dengan wawancara mendalam sebagai teknik pengambilan data. Data dianalisa dengan teknik reduksi, display, kesimpulan. Informan yang dilibatkan berjumlah 15 orang yang terdiri dari tokoh adat dan tokoh masyarakat suku Saluan, juga Pendeta dan Majelis Jemaat yang pelayanan di suku Saluan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tradisi Mohatu merupakan media suku Saluan untuk menghadapi bencana gagal panen para petani. Dalam tradisi Mohatu, arwah dipercaya tetap tinggal di dunia (kuburan) dan beraktifitas seperti biasa, termasuk berkebun. Karena itu arwah masih dapat mengganggu kegiatan perkebunan. Tradisi ini perlu ditransformasi karena berpotensi memperlambat pengembangan dan penggunaan teknologi pertanian suku Saluan. Transformasi sangat mungkin dilakukan dengan pendekatan agama melalui kontekstualisasi teologi Kristen tentang kematian. Dalam teologi Kristen, Tuhan berkuasa atas kehidupan dan kematian. Setelah manusia mati secara fisik, rohnya akan kembali kepada Tuhan, sehingga tidak ada lagi arwah di dunia ini yang bisa mempengaruhi kehidupan manusia.

The problem of energy shortage is still a global problem which is especially felt in developing countries whose residents live in villages, which still require the development of more efficient energy sources. Limited fossil fuels make water energy the best energy option. The problem of meeting the availability of electricity in rural areas by utilizing water energy as new and renewable energy is a long-term goal in this research. The current research on kinetic turbines is a combination of two types of waterwheels, which have a vertical axis (overshot and swell turbines). The vertical shaft is made so that the generator is easier to install and all the blades get a boost in the flow of water. Most water turbines have fixed blades. In this research, the target of the novelty is a kinetic turbine with a vertical shaft which has a hinged blade. Hinged blades are blades that can move when the flow of water hits the blades, so that on one side of the turbine it will reduce the negative torque and on the other hand it will increase the rotation of the turbine. The results of the research that became the target, namely, obtained a turbine design that has more optimal turbine power and efficiency, compared to a turbine that has a fixed blade, so that this externally hinged blade kinetic turbine can contribute to the provision of rural electrical energy. This research method is an experiment by doing independent variations on the number of blades, and blade 10 has an optimum power value of 59.01 Watt.

World Health Day focuses on demonstrating the importance of food safety along the whole length of the food chain in a globalized world. Food safety is the shared responsibility. It is important to work all along the food production chain from farmers, manufactures to vendors and consumers. Unsafe food creates a vicious cycle of disease and malnutrition, particularly affecting infants, young children, elderly and the sick. Unsafe food is linked to the deaths of an estimated 2 million people annually including many children. There is an urgent need for strengthening the existing food policies to incorporate the importance of food safety, which is ignored most of the times, improving the food governance. This study is based on exploratory research by reviewing available literature on consumer perception and awareness on food safety in developing countries. The food we eat must be nutritious and safe, but we often ignore or overlook the issue of food safety. There is need to Improve the nutrition center in the country, actively spread information and raise consumer awareness about food safety issues. There are other issues related to the costs of implementation of food safety measures and the compliance with the standards which the Government should take care. There is an urgent need for strengthening the existing food policies to incorporate the importance of food safety. The policy makers must include “safe food” as a top priority and integrating “food safety” in the nutrition and food security policies and programs. Good collaboration between governments, producers and consumers helps ensure food safety.
Student Perceptions of Teacher Online Feedback
Authors: Leibold Nancyruth , Schwarz Laura M.
Published: December 2022

Teacher feedback is a core feature of the student educational experience and impacts student development. Educators can learn about teaching practice from student perceptions of teacher online feedback (TOF). This integrative research review explores student perceptions of TOF in higher education using modified PRISMA guidelines. The researchers searched six academic databases and included 12 articles for deep analysis and evaluation after three rounds of article reviews. Students reported a preference for timely TOF to help improve their performance. Participants noted a variety of preferred feedback mediums, such as video, text, and audio. Support for the Community of Inquiry (CoI) theoretical framework was present in the research findings. The studies reviewed ranged from high to lower levels of evidence. Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) implications stress that online teacher feedback is a complex and contextual skill to develop. The teacher’s online feedback method and medium should match the student population’s preference. Research findings about student perceptions of TOF in higher education are critical for application by faculty to advance the SoTL.
Video Feedback and Instructor Social Presence in an Asynchronous Online Course
Authors: Love Savanna , Marshall David
Published: December 2022

Understanding best practices in online learning environments has become an important area of research in recent years, both before and during the pandemic. Video feedback has been studied as a way to enhance instructor social presence and create classroom community, though more research is needed to understand these constructs in various contexts. The current study sought to understand the extent to which video feedback enhanced instructor social presence in an asynchronous online course. Participants included five sections of an advanced educational psychology course for pre-service teachers. A qualitative, descriptive design using both surveys (n = 63) and interviews (n = 10) was employed to explore student perceptions of video feedback. Findings demonstrate that video feedback enhanced instructor social presence and that weekly videos improved students’ overall experience in the course. The video-based feedback led students to develop a better relationship with the course instructor and improved their overall experience in the course. Implications for student outcomes and instructor planning in online courses are discussed.

Tracking Brazil’s Colonization Footprints: First record of the tea plant (Camellia sinensis (L.) Kuntze – Theaceae) naturalized in the Atlantic Forest Hotspot
Authors: Antar Guilherme Medeiros , Almeida Roberto Baptista Pereira , Accardo-Filho Marco Antonio Palomares , Barbosa-Silva Rafael Gomes
Published: December 2022

The colonization of Brazil by Portugal left deep marks in Brazil’s current society and economy. The same applies to the country’s biodiversity, with several introduced plants persisting as naturalized or invasive species. Among these, the tea plant, Camellia sinensis, is a notable case. The species was first cultivated in Rio de Janeiro state during the 19th century, but the crops were later abandoned mostly due to the presence of parasite fungi in cultivations, so that the species’ cultivation continued in other states only. During recent fieldwork in the Atlantic Forest in the municipality of Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro state, naturalized individuals of the tea plant were discovered. This finding, alongside ecological evidence, highlights a new threat to the biodiversity of an area of high species endemism. We provide historical information on the introduction of the species in Brazil and discuss the threats it imposes to the flora in a world hotspot. Our finding adds C. sinensis to the list of naturalized plants of Flora do Brasil 2020 and emphasizes the importance of monitoring the invasive potential of the species in the area, given its allelopathic potential on the germination of other species and competition with native plants.

Ancient woodland indicator species: can old herbarium specimens supplement recent records to inform ecological management?
Authors: Hemmings Kelly
Published: December 2022

Old herbarium specimens have become increasingly well-recognised as a rich source of ecological baseline data. For long-continuity plant communities, such as ancient woodland, these records may be particularly important for present day ecological management. To evaluate this potential, searches for pre-1950 Ancient Woodland Indicator (AWI) herbarium specimens collected in East Gloucestershire, UK, were conducted using digital open access sources and the physical Royal Agricultural University herbarium. In total 305 specimens were retrieved from twelve herbaria, with small regional collections being particularly important sources. The earliest specimen dated to 1834. There was a significant association between old specimen availability and year of collection, due to a peak in the late-1800s and early-1900s. Over half of the AWI species for the region were represented, although some taxonomic bias was evident. To determine if old AWI specimens contributed any new location records, 246 unique specimens with detailed georeferences were mapped and compared to the locations of 1950-1999 and 2000-2021 biological records. One third of the pre-1950 specimens had not been recorded in the same locality since collection of the old specimen, indicating either a gap in recent records or floristic change. However, length of time since specimen collection was not a predictor of a 1950-2000 or 2000-2021 record in the same locality. Overall, it is highly recommended that policy-makers, land managers, and field surveyors consult old AWI herbarium records for ancient woodland identification, management, and restoration.

Published: December 2022

A ginger species collected in Palawan, Philippines was initially thought to be Wurfbainia palawanensis but differs by the dark brown fertile bracts and red spinose fruits. This species is also morphologically similar to the continental Asian Wurfbainia microcarpa but can be distinguished from this by the entire ligule, petiolate lamina, congested rachis, and presence of red stripes at the base of the labellum. Therefore, we here describe Wurfbainia rubrofasciata providing colour plates, data on phenology, distribution, habitat, and a provisional conservation assessment. A key to five species of Wurfbainia in the Philippines is provided and we discuss the likely closest relatives of Wurfbainia palawanensis.
The The ginger genus Burbidgea confirmed in the flora of the Philippines
Authors: Mazo Kean Roe F. , Docot Rudolph Valentino A. , Poulsen Axel Dalberg
Published: December 2022

The facultative epiphytic ginger genus Burbidgea harbours six species hitherto thought to be endemic in Borneo. Recent fieldwork in Zamboanga region, Mindanao, Philippines, resulted in the collection of a ginger, which we identified as Burbidgea nitida. The species, however, was already collected in Zamboanga region in 1919 but the evidence remained misidentified for a long time as Hedychium. Including the Burbidgea in the flora of the Philippines, increases the number of native ginger genera of the country to 17. Based on the recent collections, a complete description of B. nitida in the Philippines is provided here including illustrations and notes on ecology and a local name. We lectotypify Burbidgea nitida, the type of the genus, and clarify the overlap of native ginger genera and species between Borneo and Philippines.

Objectives: To characterize real-world patient characteristics, prevalence of comorbidities, rates of HCRU, and direct healthcare charges and societal costs among premature infants in US Medicaid programs, with respect to GA and the presence of respiratory comorbidities. Methods: Using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth/Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification codes, diagnosis and medical claims data from 6 state Medicaid databases (1997-2018) of infants born at less than 37 weeks of GA (wGA) were collected retrospectively. Data from the index date (birth) up to 2 years corrected age or death, stratified by GA (EP, ≤28 wGA; very premature [VP], >28 to <32 wGA; and moderate to late premature [M-LP], ≥32 to <37 wGA), were compared using unadjusted and adjusted generalized linear models. Results: Among 25 573 premature infants (46.1% female; 4462 [17.4%] EP; 2904 [11.4%] VP; 18 207 [71.2%] M-LP), comorbidity prevalence, HCRU, and all-cause costs increased with decreasing GA and were highest for EP. Total healthcare charges, excluding index hospitalization and all-cause societal costs (US dollars), were 2 to 3 times higher for EP than for M-LP (EP $74 436 vs M-LP $27 541 and EP $28 504 vs M-LP $15 892, respectively). Conclusions: Complications of preterm birth, including prevalence of comorbidities, HCRU, and costs, increased with decreasing GA and were highest among EP infants during the first 2 years in this US analysis.

Published: December 2022

The implementation of projects is a generally accepted practice of achieving the set goals with limited resources and time. The quality of modern domestic education largely determines the achievement of strategic and tactical objectives, both at the level of an economic entity and the state as a whole. The incompetence of specialists in various fields, including accounting and analytical, leads to the impossibility of introducing innovative technologies and tools into practical activities, which affects the financial condition of economic entities. The study revealed the market’s need for project management accounting specialists based on the analysis of vacancies of the most popular online recruiting platforms in Russia. The assessment of the competence matrix of project management specialists during international certification was carried out with the identification of the relationship between project management and accounting, management accounting in terms of elements (stakeholders, requirements and objectives of the project, risks and opportunities, quality, design and final product of the project, time and phases of the project life cycle, etc.). The significance of the competencies of these specialists is determined by means of a questionnaire and factor analysis of its results. Based on the collected information base, a model of competencies of a project management accounting specialist has been formed (project planning, project monitoring and control, project closure, cost management, procurement management, human resource management).
Topical issues of youth entrepreneurship in Russia
Authors: Alymova Anna
Published: December 2022

Small and medium-sized businesses are the driving force behind the country’s economic growth. The indicators of the current state of this sector of the economy in Russia indicate an insufficient level of its development. The active involvement of young people in entrepreneurship will increase the number of small and medium-sized businesses, which is one of the strategic goals of our state. Today, the average age of an entrepreneur is 38 years old and indicates a small proportion of young people in the business environment. This situation is explained by a number of factors, the main of which are the lack of own funds and weak funding, lack of necessary knowledge and skills. State support for young entrepreneurs is carried out through the implementation of various programs aimed at involving schoolchildren, students and graduates in business, providing training in the basics of entrepreneurial activity, providing subsidies to organizations that make up the support structure for small and medium-sized, as well as youth entrepreneurship. It is fair to say that the current system is not perfect. There is no proper legislative regulation of social relations arising in connection with the implementation of entrepreneurship by young people and the activities of state bodies and public associations aimed at developing and supporting youth business. The article discusses the main problems in the sector of the economy under consideration and proposes priority areas for the activities of authorities, commercial and non-profit organizations, the implementation of which contributes to the strengthening and development of youth entrepreneurship.

. Mediastinal cystic formations are well-shaped, often round formations that contain fluid and are lined with epithelium. The main cystic formations include congenital benign cysts (bronchogenic, duplicating the esophagus, neuroenteric, pericardial and thymic cysts), meningocele, mature cystic teratomas and lymphangiomas. Many tumors (e.g., thymomas, Hodgkin's disease, germ cell tumors, mediastinal carcinomas, lymph node metastases, nerve root tumors) may undergo cystic degeneration, especially after radiation or chemotherapy, and show mixed solid and cystic elements on computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), as well as acquire the structure of cavity formations during the tumor destruction. If the degeneration is extensive, such tumors may be virtually indistinguishable from con­genital cysts. However, the history of the disease, visualization of the anatomical location of the formation, some details visible on CT or MRI, allow in many cases to make the correct diagnosis. Familiarity with the radiographic features of mediastinal cystic lesions facilitates accurate diagnosis, differentiation from other cystic lesions, and thus ensures optimal treatment of a patienta.

Introduction. At present, the mechanisms of the processes of resolving chronic inflammation in asthma are not fully understood. A search for new pharmacological preparations and substances for the treatment and control of the course of asthma is required. Promising in this direction are N-acylethanolamines (NAE) of polyunsaturated fatty acids - bioactive lipid molecules that exhibit many signaling functions. NAEs are capable of influencing the synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines and are also appear to be a substrate for the synthesis of pro-permissive lipid signaling molecules. This review collects data on NAE, provides an overview, biosynthesis, and describes their anti-inflammatory effects.

Aim. Summarizing the data of domestic and foreign researchers on the possibility of NAE in the treatment of respiratory diseases on the example of bronchial asthma.

Materials and methods. The review uses data from articles published in PubMed, Google Scholar, eLIBRARY.

Results. The study and compilation of literature on this issue made it possible to conclude that synthetic NAEs are promising pharmacological objects for asthma therapy, however, further testing of the anti-in­flammatory effects of NAEs and the establishment of the molecular mechanism of their action on inflammation processes are needed.

Introduction. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels expressed on many cells, including macro­phages, are an attractive target for pharmacological modulation for the treatment of various diseases. At the same time, currently available data on the functional role of TRP on macrophages are scarce.

Aim. To establish the effect of TRPA1 and TRPM8 channels on the production of cytokines by macrophages during pro-inflammatory (M1) and anti-inflammatory (M2) polarization.

Materials and methods. Macrophages were obtained from monocytes of 8 healthy donors by differ­entiation in the presence of GM-CSF or M-CSF. Cell polarization was achieved by adding to the culture medium 100 ng/ml LPS + IFN-y 20 ng/ml (M1) or IL-4 20 ng/ml (M2) for 24 h. In order to modulate TRP activity, cinnamaldehyde 100 цМ (TRPA1 agonist), HC-030031 100 цМ (TRPA1 blocker), WS-12 10 цМ (TRPM8 agonist), or RQ-00434739 1 цМ (TRPM8 blocker) were used.

Results. It was found that during M1 polarization TRPA1 channels inhibited the pro­duction of CXCL10, and TRPM8 increased the level of IL-8. Under polarization to the М2 phenotype, TRPA1 suppressed the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-ie, TNF-a, IL-6, IL-12p70 and IFN-y, and TRPM8 did not significantly affect the levels of the analyzed mediators.

Conclusion. The obtained results indicate that in terms of cytokine production by macrophages, TRPA1 has a predominantly anti-inflammatory effect, while TRPM8 shows a limited influence, which come to the regulation of IL-8 synthesis.
