Panchayati Raj Institutions in India: An Overview
Authors: Roy Moumita Saha
Published: December 2024

The Panchayati Raj is a political system prevalent throughout South Asia, particularly in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal. It is a form of local self-governance. To extend democracy to rural India, the system of Panchayati Raj was established in India. The Panchayati Raj system is not a new concept and hence it is considered as one of the best ways of governance in rural India. However, the system of Panchayati Raj, despite deriving their powers and existence from the Constitution of India, faces many challenges in its day-to-day functioning due to various reasons, and hence this third tier of government has not been able to serve them for which it was introduced in India. It means that the system has been experiencing difficulties. The 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act of 1992 provided Constitutional status and institutional framework to panchayat to strengthen grassroots democracy through elected self-governing local bodies in rural areas. This paper discusses the historical background and structure of Panchayati Raj in India and the challenges that the present Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) face in their proper functioning. The paper also observes women’s participation in PRIs and recent initiatives in panchayat governance.

Correlation of Central Column Diaphyseal Angle, Humeral Head Height, Greater Tuberosity to Articular Surface Distance, Age and Fracture Pattern with Constant Murley Score Functional Outcomes in Post-ORIF PHILOS Patients with Proximal Humerus Fracture
Authors: Sanjay I Made Artha Wiguna , Suyasa I Ketut , Karna Made Bramantya
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Proximal humerus fractures (PHF) are common injuries, particularly in the elderly population, caused by both direct and indirect trauma. The Proximal Humerus Internal Locking System (PHILOS) is a widely used treatment for displaced or complex PHF. To assess shoulder function, the European Society for Surgery of the Shoulder and the Elbow recommends the Constant–Murley Score (CMS) as a reliable tool for evaluating shoulder joint outcomes.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at RSUP Prof I.G.N.G. Ngoerah, Denpasar, Bali, between May 2024 and July 2024. Descriptive analysis was used to determine patient characteristics. The relationships between Central Column Diaphyseal Angle (CCDA), Humeral Head Height (HHH), Greater Tuberosity to Articular Surface Distance (GT-ASD), and CMS were analyzed using Pearson correlation for normally distributed data and Spearman correlation for non-normal data.
Results: Statistically significant relationships were found between CCDA, HHH, and GT-ASD with the CMS in patients who underwent ORIF PHILOS for proximal humerus fractures (r=0.915; p<0.001). A significant correlation was also observed between fracture pattern and CMS outcomes. However, age did not show a significant relationship with CMS.
Conclusion: CCDA with a cutoff of 109.5 degrees was identified as a primary predictor of functional outcomes. HHH and GT-ASD were also significant, indicating the importance of anatomical restoration for shoulder function recovery. Age did not affect CMS outcomes, emphasizing that the quality of anatomical reconstruction is more critical than age in predicting functional recovery post-surgery.

Keywords: CCDA, HHH, GT, AS, Fracture Pattern, Constant Murley Score

Authors: Sireesha Vankodoth , Deekshitha Golipally , Divya Kanaje , Surendra Kummari , Rao T. Rama
Published: December 2024

Cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma often develop from Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD), a progressive condition characterized by hepatic steatosis, inflammation and varying degrees of fibrosis. The increasing incidence of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) highlights the need for effective diagnostic and treatment methods. Non-invasive tests (NITs) have emerged as promising tools for evaluating and monitoring NAFLD, offering safer and more cost-effective alternatives to invasive liver biopsies. This review focuses on the current state of NITs in NAFLD management, emphasizing their diagnostic accuracy, prognostic significance, and role in guiding treatment. NITs discussed include transient elastography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) and serum biomarker panels such as the NAFLD fibrosis score, Fibro Test, and Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF) test. Recent advancements in MRI and MRE have greatly improved the non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis and steatosis, enhancing sensitivity and specificity for early detection and risk stratification. Additionally, combined serum biomarker panels have shown promise in predicting disease severity and progression, aiding in the identification of high-risk patients who could benefit from early intervention. By enabling prompt diagnosis, comprehensive risk assessment and monitoring of disease progression, the integration of NITs into standard clinical practice offers significant potential for improving NAFLD management. Ongoing research efforts are focused on developing new NITs and optimizing existing methods to enhance diagnostic precision and prognostic evaluation in NAFLD patients. This evolving landscape of non-invasive assessment tools could revolutionize the approach to managing this increasingly prevalent liver disease.

A Literature Review
Authors: Alghani Farhan Aqsha , Rifqi Al Azim Muhammad , Rita Rauza Sukma
Published: December 2024

Breast cancer is a malignant disease affecting cells in the breast tissue, causing the highest mortality rate among women worldwide. As of now, the exact cause of breast cancer remains unknown, but several factors increase the risk for women, including genetics, lifestyle, direct radiation exposure, and others. In the development of breast cancer, numerous substances can influence the differentiation, adhesion, and motility of cancer cells, including the oncogene human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2). Various treatment methods for cancer have been developed, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery. However, due to the significant side effects and limitations of existing treatments, innovation is needed to support the success of breast cancer treatment. Recent research has explored green synthesis-based gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as a promising alternative anticancer therapy with several advantages. The rapid growth of natural herbal plants containing anticancer compounds like flavonoids can enhance the effectiveness of modified therapies in this modern era. The polymerization of gold nanoparticles with flavonoid fractions using Poly-Lactic-co-Glycolic Acid (PLGA) can facilitate the delivery of anticancer drugs to the target site. The research method employed is a literature review using e-resources from PubMed NCBI, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Keywords include Gold Nanoparticle, Breast Cancer, flavonoid, PLGA. Article criteria include full text, abstract, and publication within the last ten years (2013-2024). A total of 157 articles were obtained, and 7 articles were found to be relevant to the topic. Literature review results indicate the high anti-oncogenic effectiveness of gold nanoparticles with flavonoid-polymerized PLGA for breast cancer treatment. This finding can serve as a reference for the application of molecular therapeutic development that has proven to influence the suppression of HER-2 receptor growth expression.

Published: December 2024

Background: Straight line, the conventional incision technique, is against the principle of plastic surgery when it is not along the minimal line of tension on body. This incisional technique is widely practiced by general surgeons whilst zigzag incision if used, would be advantageous as it facilitates in enhanced exposure to surgical field and aesthetically better scar. In this study zigzag incisional technique was evaluated in terms of safety and efficacy in elective surgery cases of acute appendicitis, inguinal hernia and soft tissue tumour.
Methods: Stratified randomization done for the patients included in cases of general surgery like acute appendicitis, inguinal hernia and soft tissue tumor. These patients were divided in the two groups, conventional incision group and zigzag incision group. Exposure to the surgical field was recorded as qualitative- bad, good and excellent according to operating surgeon. Scar assessment was done after 1 week, 1 month and 6 months.
Results: Upon comparison of result, it was observed with zigzag incision, the exposure to surgical field was better than conventional straight-line technique. Additionally, the surgical scar was aesthetically better compared to the straight incision used in general surgery cases like appendectomy, inguinal hernia repair, soft tissue tumor excision but there was no significant difference in case of hernia and appendicitis cases.
Conclusion: Zigzag incision can be used safely in place of traditional incision in the elective general surgery cases of acute appendicitis, inguinal hernia and soft tissue tumour. Zigzag incision provides better exposure of surgical field although this is subjective measure of surgeon’s experience, shows statistically significant difference. Zigzag incision heals better than straight line and gives aesthetically better scar, it can be used in cases such as open appendectomy, open inguinal hernia repair and excision of soft tissue swelling.

Published: December 2024

The International Astronomical Union (IAU) announced its Strategic Plan on Astronomy for Development in 2009, during the International Year of Astronomy (IYA) (for 2011-2020, extended to 2021-2030).
One of its main components was the creation of the Office of Astronomy for Development (OAD) and
corresponding Regional Offices (ROADs) for implementation and coordination of its aims. The OAD was
created in Cape Town, South Africa and later on ROADs were created in 11 regions. Since 2015, Armenia has hosted one of them, IAU South West Asian (SWA) IAU ROAD, later renamed South West and
Central Asian (SWCA) ROAD. At present, already six countries have officially joined (Armenia, Georgia,
Iran, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, and Turkey), but the Office serves for a rather broad region, from Eastern
Europe to Central Asia. Armenia’s geographical location and its historical role in astronomy (both for
well-known archaeoastronomical heritage and the presence of the famous Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (BAO) founded by Viktor Ambartsumian in 1946) serve as a link between Europe and Eastern
Partnership countries, Middle East and Asia in general. We run activities in 3 directions, Task Forces
(TF): TF1 Universities and Research, TF2 Children and Schools and TF3 Public Outreach. In addition,
we participate in the OAD Flagship Projects; Flagship 1: Astrotourism, Flagship 2: Astro for Mental
Health, Flagship 3: Hack4Dev. We present our projects and all other accomplishments and discuss the
role of our ROAD in maintaining contacts and development of astronomy in the region, as well as contacts
between Europe and the Eastern Partnership countries. The most up-to-date information about the IAU
SWCA ROAD is available on its webpage at http://iau-swa-road.aras.am/eng/index.php.

Published: December 2024

We conducted an extensive study of the spheroidal dwarf satellite galaxies around the Andromeda
galaxy to produce an extensive catalog of LPV stars. The optical monitoring project consists of 55 dwarf
galaxies and four globular clusters that are members of the Local Group. We have made observations of
these galaxies using the WFC mounted on the 2.5 m INT in nine different periods, both in the i-band
filter Sloan and in the filter V -band Harris. We aim to select AGB stars with brightness variations larger
than 0.2 mag to investigate the evolutionary processes in these dwarf galaxies. The resulting catalog of
LPV stars in Andromeda’s satellite galaxies offers updated information on features like half-light radii,
TRGB magnitudes, and distance moduli. This manuscript will review the results obtained for And II
galaxy. Using the Sobel filter, we have calculated the distance modulus for this satellite galaxy, which
ranges from 23.90 to 24.11 mag.

اعتبار المقاصد الشريعة في الفقه الحنفي
Authors: Jawwad Khalil
Published: December 2024

This research challenges the common perception that the Ḥanafī School of thought has neglected the concept of Maqāṣid al-Shari’ah (objectives of Islamic law). By examining Ḥanafī literature, the study demonstrates that Ḥanafī jurists have consistently incorporated Maqāṣid into their methodology of ijtihād. While there may not be a dedicated independent book on Maqāṣid by early Ḥanafī scholars, the concept is implicitly and explicitly present in their works on Fiqh and Uṣūl al-Fiqh. Through specific examples, the researcher highlights how Ḥanafī jurists have considered the underlying objectives of Islamic law in their legal reasoning and rulings.
Evolution of regulations in the field of immovable cultural heritage in MSSR (1944 – 1955)
Authors: Ostapov Alina , Ciocanu Sergius
Published: December 2024

The present research examines the evolution of cultural heritage legislation in the Moldovan Soviet Socialist Republic in the decade since the end of World War II. The normative acts reveal the entities responsible for heritage protection, define historical and archaeological monuments and impose rules and restrictions on their use, protection and restoration. Attention is paid to the protection of museum property, highlighting the importance of conserving and securing cultural heritage objects in museum collections. Lists of state-protected monuments provide details on each monument and their status, including information on location, category, and historical dating, along with reports on their current status and the protection measures implemented. The patrimonial policy is reflected in the obligation to inventory monuments and in the establishment of restrictions and penalties for non-compliance with protection norms. It is also important to divide monuments according to their degree of permissiveness of use, demonstrating a strong commitment to the protection and conservation of the cultural heritage. The analysis of legislation and administrative practices outlines a complex legal and institutional framework aimed at ensuring both the protection and the rational use of historical and archaeological monuments.
The perception of socialist realism in architecture: from triumph to fall, from stylistic variation to protected identity
Authors: Trifan Aurelia
Published: December 2024

The article is dedicated to the perception of socialist realism in the architecture of the period 1932-1955. It defines the essence of the meanings established in the concept of socialist-realist architecture based on the world cultural heritage of classicism, the perfect packaging for the representation of the greatness of Soviet state achievements. The approaches of the representatives of the architectural avant-garde and architectural theorists of the Soviet period regarding totalitarian architecture with variations from „neo-academic stylisation” to the Stalinist „Empire” are being presented. Attention is paid to the spread of this model of architecture, which gained momentum after the Second World War. As a result, socialist realism also finds its development in the architecture of the Moldovan Soviet Socialist Republic. The trends of the new stylistic orientation that influenced the architecture of the buildings built during the period in question are evident. These include well-known buildings such as: the Ministry of Food Industry, the Railway Station, the main block of the Academy of Sciences of Moldova, the Republican Library „Nadezhda Krupskaia”, the Republican Stadium and many other buildings – all a clear reflection of an „inconvinient” but valuable historical phase in the history of architecture. The current changed view of Soviet-era architectural landmarks demands that they be rationally filtered and catalogued in order to protect them accordingly.
Industrial design as a contextual way of intervention in public space
Authors: Stamati Mihai
Published: December 2024

The role of Industrial Design is obvious when is about capitalizing on public space and increasing its level of comfort. The design determines the quality, the way of use and the interaction of man with the space and this fact is valid when we refer to the design of serial objects for the public space in general and especially when we addressing to a concrete place. The subject addressed in the article starts from the question of how contextual the industrial design could be when targeting a well-defined public space and how versatile and adaptable this field can be to social circumstances, stories of places, natural phenomena and other factors that could be defining for the identity of the space. We make a synthesis referring to a project implemented in the public space of Chisinau, which coagulated through design, as a tool of expression, the local community and a working group made up of designers, sculptors and engineers. We report on the context in which the idea of the project arose and the creative process followed for the materialization of a product that conveys through its concept, the story of the place and of an atypical natural phenomenon in the Republic of Moldova that happened in April 2017.

Bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye’deki hayat dışı sigorta işletmelerinin etkinliklerinin 2022-2023 döneminde ölçülmesi ve değerlendirilmesidir. Etkinlikleri incelemek amacıyla Veri Zarflama Analizi (VZA) metodu kullanılmıştır. Hayat dışı sigorta işletmelerinin etkinlik düzeyleri çıktı odaklı olarak CCR ve BCC modelleri ile analiz edilerek karşılaştırılmıştır. 2022 yılında CCR modeli bulgularına göre 42 hayat dışı sigorta işletmesinden 5 tanesi etkin, 37 tanesi etkin değildir ve etkinlik düzeyi en düşük olan işletme 0,1680 ile Gri Sigorta’dır. BCC modeli bulgularına göre 8 tanesi etkin, 34 tanesi etkin değildir ve etkinlik düzeyi en düşük olan işletme 0,170 ile Gri Sigorta’dır. 2023 yılında CCR modeli bulgularına göre 44 hayat dışı sigorta işletmesinden 4 tanesi etkin, 40 tanesi etkin değildir ve etkinlik düzeyi en düşük olan işletme 0,265 ile Generali Sigorta’dır. BCC modeli bulgularına göre 12 tanesi etkin, 32 tanesi etkin değildir ve etkinlik düzeyi en düşük olan işletme 0,281 ile Generali Sigorta’dır. Literatürde, hayat dışı sigorta işletmeleriyle ilgili 2022-2023 dönemini kapsayan, CCR ve BBC modelleri birlikte kullanılarak ölçek etkinliği de hesaplanan bir çalışmaya rastlanılmamıştır. Etkin olmayan işletmeler projeksiyon değerlerine ulaşabilecek politika ve stratejiler ile etkin duruma gelerek ülke ekonomisine olumlu katkı sağlayacaktır.
Fatih Sultan Mehmed’e Atfedilen Farsça Bir Beytin İzinde
Authors: Kavaklıyazı Ahmet , Avcıoğlu Gamze Gizem
Published: December 2024

Fatih Sultan Mehmed, kudretli ve dirayetli bir hükümdar olmasının yanı sıra edebî kişiliğiyle de tanınır. Avnî mahlaslı şairin caize geleneğini başlatan ve divan sahibi ilk Osmanlı padişahı olduğu bilinmektedir. Arapça ve Farsçaya hâkim olmasına rağmen şiirlerini sade bir Türkçeyle söylemiş olan sultan, sayıca çok fazla şiir yazmasa da başarılı bir şair olarak kabul edilir. Klasik şiir geleneğine bağlı olan sultanın şiirlerinde Fars edebiyatının önde gelen şairlerinden Sa‘dî ve Hâfız’ın tesirlerini görmek de mümkündür. Fatih’in, İstanbul’un fethi esnasında söylediği kaydedilen “Perdedârî mî-koned ber tâk-ı Kisrâ ‘ankebût / Bûm nevbet mî-zened der kal‘a-i Efrâsiyâb” şeklinde Farsça bir beyit bulunmaktadır. Çeşitli kaynaklarda tekrar edilegelen ve onunla âdeta özdeşleşen bu meşhur beytin kime ait olduğu belli değildir. Bu çalışmada beytin söylendiği yer ve zamanla ilgili görüşler incelenecek, beytin kime ait olabileceği konusu tartışılacak; şerhi yapıldıktan sonra klasik Türk ve Fars şiirinde bu beytin nazireleri ortaya konacaktır. Böylece bir beyit etrafında gelişen edebî süreç incelenecektir.

Authors: Yılmaz Filiz Asuman
Published: December 2024

0-24 ay dönemi insanın fiziksel olarak hızla geliştiği, boy ve kilosunun arttığı dönemdir. Bu sebeple giysilerin kullanım süresi oldukça kısadır. Araştırmacılar bu konuya çözüm getirebilmek adına çalışmalar yürütmektedir. Sunulabilecek çözüm önerilerinden biri modüler giysiler geliştirmektir. Modüler giysi tasarımları ile hem kullanım çeşitliliği artırılabilmekte hem de giysinin kullanım süresi uzatılabilmektedir. Araştırmanın amacı; bebeklik döneminde kullanılan giysilerin modüler tasarımlar çerçevesinde geliştirilerek kullanım süresini uzatma önerileri sunmaktır. Bu sayede hem aile ekonomisine katkı sağlanmış olacak hem de giyside sürdürülebilirlik uygulaması ile doğa dostu tasarımlar uygulanacaktır. Araştırmanın evreni 18 yaşından büyük ve 0-24 ay bebeklik dönemini doldurmuş bebeğe sahip annelerdir. Örneklem ise bu anneler arasından rastgele seçilen 40 kadındır. Araştırmada yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniği uygulanmış ve katılımcılara bebeklerinin giysilerinde karşılaştıkları dar/küçük gelme problemleri sorulmuştur. Görüşme sonuçlarına göre elde edilen veriler sistematik bir şekilde tablolar halinde sunulmuştur. Bu çıkarımlar doğrultusunda belirlenen küçülme-daralma özelliklerine yönelik çözüm önerileri; 4 adet bebek giysi tasarımı üzerinden teknik çizimler ile aktarılmıştır.

Çalışmada, 1989-2022 dönemi için E-7 ülkelerinde Feldstein-Horioka hipotezinin geçerliliğini test etmek amaçlanmıştır. Feldstein-Horioka hipotezine göre yurt içi tasarruflar ile yurt içi yatırımlar arasındaki korelasyon, uluslararası sermaye hareketliliğindeki serbestlik derecesi için bir göstergedir. Buna göre yüksek sermaye mobilitesine sahip ekonomilerde yurt içi tasarruflar ile yurt içi yatırımlar arasındaki korelasyon güçlü nitelikteyken, tersi durumunda bu korelasyon zayıf olarak belirlenmektedir. Ekonometrik analiz için, yurt içi tasarruflar / GSYH oranı ve yurt içi yatırımlar / GSYH oranı verileri Dünya Bankası’ndan temin edilmiştir. Kurulan modelde öncelikle yatay kesit bağımlılığı araştırılmıştır. Ardından model, homojenlik ve eşbütünleşme testleri ile sınanmış; verilerin durağanlığı CIPS testi ile analiz edilmiştir. Son aşamada, AMG ve Dinamik CCEMG tahmincileri ile model değerlendirilmiştir. AMG tahmincisine göre, söz konusu dönemde ülke grubunda yurt içi tasarrufların yurt içi yatırımları karşılama oranı %40 olarak bulunmuşken, Dinamik CCEMG tahmincisine göre bu oran %45 olarak bulgulanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, E-7 ülkelerinde yurt içi yatırımların büyük ölçüde uluslararası sermaye ile karşılandığı ve yurt içi tasarruflarla finanse edilme oranının nispeten düşük olduğu görülmüştür.
