The Lower Bug region is the habitat of the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra¬), which, relying on channel reservoirs as reserves, also exploits the seasonal and permanent resources of small steppe rivers. With the climate-driven decrease in surface runoff, small rivers have become subject to complete or partial drying up, making it difficult for semi-aquatic mammals to live. The survival of the otter in the Southern Steppe is ensured by its use of the static and foraging potential of channel reservoirs and ponds. The latter are the key sites that serve as permanent and off-season reserves for the species, ensuring the survival and sustainable existence of otters in the small river network. The habitat specificity of the otter's sustainable habitats covers areas with different spatial and landscape characteristics, and hydrological, and foraging features, which allows us to distinguish three ecologically and ethologically distinct forms of the species. The first is the primary riverine form, represented by animals inhabiting the Southern Bug, Syniukha, and Ingul rivers, the second is the lyman-estuarine form, and the third is the river-pond form associated with small rivers. The current number of otters in the Lower Pobuzhzhia is estimated at 86–108 individuals, which is 38.5% more than in 2000–2005 and 58.1% more than in 1992–1995. The average breeding density is 0.489 individuals/10 ha of water area (excluding the coastal and marine zone). In some habitats, the local density of otters ranges from 0.181 (Berezansky estuary) to 1.14 individuals/10 ha (lower reaches of the Syniukha River, Kovalivsky plains). At the same time, the main reserves of the species generally remain unchanged—the channel-floodplain habitats of the Southern Bug, Ingul, and Ingulets, from which the animals disperse to the tributaries of these rivers and adult males migrate through local watersheds. Some small otter habitats are associated with the peaks and banks of the Tiligul and Berezan estuaries. The least studied was and remains the Ingulets centre of existence of the species, which was significantly affected by the consequences of hostilities.

Peranan Data Mining saat ini sangat dibutuhkan dalam berbagai bidang. Tanpa data mining maka akan terjadi banyak penumpukan data seperti contohnya di klinik Romana. Adapun permasalahan yang terjadi adalah saat ini dalam menentukan persediaan obat sering kali terjadi kendala. Persediaan dibutuhkan karena tingkat permintaan yang tidak terorganisir dengan baik dan sering terjadinya stockout (kehabisan persediaan) sehingga mengakibatkan lambatnya pelayanan kepada pasien. Tidak tersedianya stok obat disebabkan kemungkinan karena stock habis dan belum melakukan permintaan ke Gudang. Maka diperlukan sebuah algoritma yang dapat membantu dalam menentukan pola persediaan obat di klinik tersebut yaitu dengan algoritma C4.5. Dalam penelitian ini data yang digunakan yaitu dilihat dari pola data transaksi setiap hari. Data yang digunakan nantinya adalah data transaksi 3 bulan sebelumnya. Tujuan diadakan nya penelitian ini adalah agar dapat membantu mempermudah dalam menentukan pola persediaan stok obat yang dapat memudahkan pelayanan terhadap pasien dalam meresep obat dan mampu mengatasi terjadinya penimbunan stok yang   berlebih dengan  menggunakan  teknik data mining dengan  algoritma C4.5.  Dengan adanya algoritma yang digunakan maka data yang dapatkan dapat diolah sehingga menjadi sebuah informasi yang berguna dan dapat membentuk sebuah pola untuk menentukan stok obat yang diperlukan.

In PUSKESMAS Dolo for diabetics who regularly come for treatment in 2022 amounted to 619 patients or as much as 7%. For early detection of diabetes, it is necessary to conduct counseling programs for the community to understand the importance of preventing diabetes early. This problem identification uses fishbone analysis. Then from the fishbone analysis, alternative ideas for solutions to existing problems are sought using ultrasound analysis. The following problem solving analysis can be done with SWOT analysis. Some of the factors that cause the non-optimal activities of the diabetes management and prevention program at the Dolo Health Center include educational factors, the lack of public understanding of diabetes, the distance between the house and the health examination site, the lack of support from the family in conducting health checks, and the lack of counseling on diabetes programs. One of the evaluations carried out was by using the paired T test. The significance value (2-tailed) of this case is 0.000 (p 0.05). So that the results of the pretest value and posttest value have significant changes (meaningful). It can be concluded that the posttest value has increased from the previous pretest value. There was an increase in community knowledge after being given education, distribution of leaflets and distribution of pocket books to visitors to the Puskesmas as a medium of counseling

Esta investigación presenta las necesidades de capacitación sobre los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) referentes a educación de calidad (ODS 4), igualdad de género (ODS 5) y reducción de las desigualdades (ODS 10), en docentes de educación superior de El Salvador. Se determina el nivel de conocimiento sobre dichas áreas y su aplicación en el desarrollo de las tres funciones básicas: docencia, investigación y proyección social por parte del cuerpo docente de tres universidades salvadoreñas: Universidad Tecnológica de El Salvador, Universidad Luterana Salvadoreña y Universidad de El Salvador. Se encuestaron a 258 docentes de estas instituciones. Como principal resultado se establece que el cuerpo docente tiene interés en formación, pero hay un claro desconocimiento sobre cómo realizar acciones, desde las tres funciones de la educación superior, que coadyuven a la consecución de las metas de los ODS. Se incluye el diseño de un programa interuniversitario de formación docente que aborda los ODS y el marco referencial de las desigualdades en El Salvador, así como el rol de las Instituciones de Educación Superior (IES) en el cumplimiento de los ODS y en el cumplimiento de sus funciones básicas. Este programa se construyó sobre la base de la aceptación de procesos de formación en género expresados por docentes de las tres IES.

Published: August 2023

Maize and groundnuts are traditional nutrient-rich and high economic value foods grown in Uganda. However, these crops are susceptible to aflatoxin contamination which may result into aflatoxicosis related illnesses. Occurrence of flatoxins in the foods varies across food value chains, gender and agro-ecological zones of Uganda. Therefore, we conducted a cross-sectional study in 80 maize and groundnut foodstuff from Masindi and Soroti agro-ecological districts respectively. We determined levels of total aflatoxins in maize and groundnut samples across food value chains, gender and agro-ecological zones. This was aimed at assessing safety and quality status of the foods in Uganda. Questionnaires were administered to obtain information on food handling practices. 500g of each food sample were obtained and analyzed for total aflatoxin levels using ELISA assay. Data was analyzed using descriptive and analytical statistics. In overall, 45% of maize and 30% of groundnut foods were contaminated with aflatoxins. Mean aflatoxin levels in foods from Eastern and Western agro-ecological zones were 0.052±0.036ppb and 0.045±0.033ppb respectively (p=0.124). Mean aflatoxin levels in groundnuts from both male and female respondents were coincidentally 0.052ppb. Whereas, the mean aflatoxin levels in maize from male and female respondents were 0.056±0.037ppb and 0.039±0.029ppb respectively. Across the food value chain, wholesaler groundnut foods contained the highest mean aflatoxin levels of 0.088ppb (p= 0.27). Growing high polyamine containing crops, routine testing of aflatoxin prone foods and sensitizing food value chain players are important aflatoxin control strategies.
Atonement - God’s Plan for Reconciliation
Authors: Lamour Stephanie
Published: August 2023

The theme of atonement is developed through Scripture from its introductory framework in the sacrificial system to its completion in Christ and culmination in his kingdom. This paper approaches the theme of atonement through the framework of biblical theology to trace the development of this theme through four key passages - Leviticus 16:15-19, Psalm 40:6-8, Hebrews 10:1-14, and Revelation 5:9-14. A foundation for understanding atonement is set forth in the sacrificial system which presents atonement as a particular, sacrificial, priestly activity to bring about reconciliation for sin. Psalm 40 develops this idea by explicitly stating the need for obedience and setting forth a type of a kingly, obedient one. Hebrews 10 shows how both Leviticus 16 and Psalm 40 are pointing to Christ - the priest-king who is the perfect, effective, once-for-all sacrifice. Lastly, the allusion to the subjection of all to the reign of Christ (Heb. 10:12-13), points forward to Revelation 5 where reconciled people have access to the presence of the reigning Christ.Tema penebusan dikembangkan di seluruh Kitab Suci dari kerangka awalnya dalam sistem korban hingga penggenapannya di dalam Kristus dan puncaknya di kerajaan-Nya. Artikel ini mendekati tema penebusan melalui kerangka teologi biblika untuk menelusuri perkembangan tema ini dalam empat teks kunci - Imamat 16:15-19, Mazmur 40:6-8, Ibrani 10:1-14, dan Wahyu 5:9-14. Pondasi untuk memahami pendamaian diletakkan dalam sistem korban yang menampilkan pendamaian sebagai kegiatan khusus yang berkorban dari imamat untuk membawa rekonsiliasi bagi dosa. Mazmur 40 mengembangkan gagasan ini secara eksplisit dengan menyatakan perlunya ketaatan dan menggambarkan tipe raja yang taat. Ibrani 10 menunjukkan bagaimana Imamat 16 dan Mazmur 40 menunjuk kepada Kristus-imam-raja yang adalah korban yang sempurna, efektif, dan sekali untuk selamanya. Terakhir, bicara tentang penundukan semua orang pada pemerintahan Kristus (Ibr. 10:12-13), mengarah ke Wahyu 5 di mana orang-orang yang telah didamaikan memiliki akses ke hadirat Kristus yang memerintah.

Objective: The present study aims to contribute to the restoration of degraded ecosystems for a sustainable management of resources. Methods: It is based on socio-economic surveys with structured and semi-structured questionnaires including closed, open and directed questions, administered to local populations to provide us with information. Results: It appears that agriculture (71.92%) is the main cause of degradation, followed by erosion (71.82%), deforestation (64.29%) and overgrazing (62.15%). As indices of degradation, the presence of gullies (23.72%), low yield (22.28%), the presence of Striga hermonthica (18.56%) and sandy soils (18.11%) are to be noted and the indices of fertility are observable through the good yield (40.23%), the presence of earthen glasses (7.79%) and the presence of flora such as pennisetum pedicellatum (3.34%). To remedy the degradation and increase their production, the population makes more use of chemical fertilizers and crop rotation and species such as Faidherbia albida (64.33%), Daniellia oliveri (17.89%), Pterocarpus lucens (7.99%), Acacia nilotica (4.42%) are retained as having restorative potential. Also, these farmers mention the importance of bank protection species (Khaya senegalensis, Ficus sycomorus, Mitragyna inermis and Daniellia oliveri) and living hedges (Acacia nilotica, Commifora kerstindjii, Jatropha curcas, Eucalyptus camaldulensis). Conclusion: The population is aware of the degradation that is taking place and is trying to develop remedial practices despite the pressure of nature and vital needs. It would be important to take measures to mitig
Protection of Performers’ Rights under the Copyright Act 2022: A Critique
Authors: Alabi Stephen
Published: August 2023

The protection of Neighbouring Rights is an essential aspect of the legal regime of copyright in every jurisdiction. This is more so in Nigeria where there has been an explosion of the film industry, musical performances and radio and television broadcasting which these rights protect and an even greater explosion of technology with which rights protectable under copyright statutes can be infringed upon. The Nigerian Copyright Act Cap. C28 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria 2004 made copious provisions for the protection of Neighbouring Rights in Part II thereof. However, over time, these provisions became inadequateto secure the protectable interests of performers with the increase in open and sleuth technology and the tenacity of infringers to undermine the interests of rights owners. The agitation of stakeholders to review the statute to accommodate new challenges in the industry has yielded fruit with the signing into law of the new Nigerian Copyright Act 2022 by former President Muhammadu Buhari. This paper looks at the provisions of the new Act to ascertain how well they protect performers’ rights against the background of the challenges that led to a review of the old Act. The paper does a comparison of the new provisions with the old provisions and with provisions in similar jurisdictions outside Nigeria. The paper finds that the new Act has greatly improved the protection available to performers and adequately meets international standards.
From Gilead to Syria: A Comparative Study of Patriarchal Oppression and Resistance in Margaret Atwood's “The Handmaid's Tale” and Nagham Haider’s “Winter Festivals”
Authors: Omar Abdulfattah , Alanazi Maha
Published: August 2023

This paper examines the influence of Margaret Atwood's concept of feminist dystopia on Nagham Haider's Winter Festivals. The main objective of the research is to explore how Haider's literary works, specifically her Winter Festivals, reflect Atwood's feminist dystopian vision. The study adopts Atwood’s approach of feminist dystopia as represented in The Handmaid's Tale to explore themes of gender oppression, objection of the female body, government control, and patriarchal power structures. In her novel, Haider draws heavily from Atwood's feminist dystopian vision, particularly in her exploration of the intersectional oppression faced by the women during the Syrian Civil War. Haider's novel portrays a society in which women are oppressed and denied agency and autonomy, which is a central concept in Margaret Atwood's feminist dystopia. It can be concluded that Nagham Hayder's Winter Festivals echoes Margaret Atwood's feminist dystopian theory in several ways. Both authors present patriarchal societies where women are oppressed and controlled, with women's bodies commodified and controlled by men. Both novels showcase governments exerting complete control over citizens through surveillance and propaganda. Additionally, they emphasize the significance of women's resistance and solidarity in the face of oppression. Winter Festivals' portrayal of a revolution against the Syrian regime and The Handmaid's Tale's depiction of Handmaid resistance show Hayder's apparent influence from Atwood's feminist dystopian ideas in her writing. Finally, this research contributes to the growing body of scholarship on feminist dystopian literature, shedding light on the global reach and impact of Atwood's vision, as well as the diverse ways in which feminist writers around the world adapt and re-imagine this powerful genre to reflect their unique experiences and perspectives.

Authors: Solvang Jensen Steen , Ketzel Matthias , Khan Jibran
Published: August 2023

Denne artikel beskriver resultaterne af en kortlægning af luftkvaliteten i 2019 langs statsvejene i hele Danmark. Kortlægningen er gennemført med en forbedret version af OML-Highway modellen, og anvendte metoder og datagrundlag er beskrevet. I luftkvalitetskortlægningen beregnes på alle adresser årsmiddelværdien af NO2, PM2,5 og PM10, som er udvalgte luftforurenende stoffer relateret til helbredseffekter. Antallet af berørte boliger og mennesker langs vejnettet er estimeret for at beskrive befolkningens eksponering for luftforurening. Luftkvaliteten er sammenlignet med nuværende og foreslåede EU grænseværdier samt WHO’s retningslinjer for luftkvalitet. Kortlægningen viser, at der i en afstand af 1.000 m fra statsvejnettet bor omkring 1,5 million mennesker i omkring ¾ million boligenheder fordelt på omkring en halv million adresser. Alle mennesker langs statsvejnettet bor på adresser, som er under grænseværdien for NO2. Kun godt 500 personer (0,04%) bor på adresser, hvor den forslåede EU grænseværdi overskrides. Til gengæld bor omkring 49% på adresser, som overskrider WHO-retningslinjer fra 2021. For PM2,5 bor alle på adresser, som er under grænseværdien, men omkring 49% bor på adresser med PM2,5-koncentrationer, som overskrider den foreslåede EU grænseværdi, og alle adresser overskrider WHO-retningslinjer fra 2021. For PM10 bor alle mennesker på adresser under grænseværdien, men omkring 2% bor på adresser med PM10-koncentrationer, som overskrider den foreslåede EU grænseværdi, og omkring 97% bor på adresser, som overskrider WHO-retningslinjer fra 2021. Luftkvalitetsniveauerne og befolkningseksponering langs statsvejene er en kombination af baggrundsbidraget og statsvejenes bidrag.
Индивидуальное представление образа тела и выбора одежды
Authors: Ефимкина Анна
Published: August 2023

Представлен обзор исследований, посвященных взаимосвязи образа тела и выбираемой одежды. Показано, что существенное влияние на формирование образа тела имеют транслируемые СМИ культурные стереотипы идеальной внешности. Формируется зависимость от соответствия этим образам, которая может приводить к негативной самооценке. Культурный образ тела влияет на отношение к весу и развитие самообъективации как у женщин, так и у мужчин. Последняя вредна для личности тем, что лишает иных ценностей, кроме тела. Однако если фокус внимания смещен на иные личностные проявления, человек легче переживает несоответствие культурным идеалам. Одежда имеет взаимосвязь с образом тела и идентичностью и может служить вспомогательным инструментом для изменения образа тела с целью улучшения психологического состояния человека.

Усвоение пространственных закономерностей относится к области визуального статистического научения и обеспечивается сложным взаимодействием различных когнитивных структур. Научение пространственным паттернам происходит непреднамеренно в процессе решения различных задач, подразумевающих обработку информации о множестве объектов. Таким образом, визуальное пространственное статистическое научение представляется тесно связанным с особенностями распределения внимания. Целью предлагаемой работы является рассмотрение существующих эмпирических результатов, касающихся зависимости научения от распределения внимания при решении той или иной задачи. В статье описаны основные экспериментальные схемы, применяемые в исследованиях статистического пространственного научения. Проанализированы данные о роли фокусированного и распределенного, глобального и локального режимов внимания в визуальном статистическом научении. Рассматривается связь статистического научения и восприятия зрительных ансамблей, а также статистического научения и глобального восприятия множества. В качестве одной из типичных для пространственного статистического научения ситуаций рассматривается феномен усвоения контекстной подсказки в задаче зрительного поиска. Сопоставляются эмпирические данные о роли режимов внимания в парадигме контекстной подсказки и исходном экспериментальном подходе в области пространственного статистического научения. В заключение обсуждаются основные проблемы статистического пространственного научения и возможные направления дальнейших исследований в этой области.

Kiểm soát tiếng ồn trong môi trường lao động là cần thiết cho sức khỏe con người và môi trường xung quanh. Mức độ tiếng ồn nguy hiểm, được coi là ngưỡng gây ra các vấn đề về tâm sinh lý cho người lao động. Mục đích của nghiên cứu này xây dựng bản đồ phân bố không gian mức độ tiếng ồn bằng số liệu đo được tính toán dựa trên mô hình tiếng ồn. Một khu công nghiệp sản xuất nhựa tại thành phố Hải Phòng đã được lựa chọn và mức áp suất âm thanh được đo tại 60 điểm riêng biệt tại khu công nghiệp. Các phép đo được tiến hành vào các khung giờ buổi Sáng (8h00 – 10h00) với mức độ tiếng ồn vào buổi sáng dao động từ 37,5 đến 95,2 dBA, buổi Trưa (11h30 – 13h30) dao động từ 17,0 đến 74,0 dBA và buổi Chiều (14h00 – 16h00) từ 38,7 đến 100 dBA. Dữ liệu mức tiếng ồn thu được của khu công nghiệp được lập bản đồ bằng mô hình mạng nơ-ron hàm cơ sở xuyên tâm (RBF). Kết quả chỉ ra rằng chất lượng môi trường lao động trong khu công nghiệp ở mức trung bình, có nghĩa là việc tiếp xúc với các mức độ này trong một thời gian dài có thể ảnh hưởng đến sức khỏe và chất lượng cuộc sống của người lao động. Đề xuất giải pháp khả thi để giảm mức độ tiếng ồn trong khu vực xuống các giá trị giới hạn cho phép nhằm nâng cao chất lượng môi trường lao động.
Office-based Percutaneous Needle Fasciotomy for Tubiana Stage 1 and 2 Dupuytren’s Contracture
Authors: lu Zeynel , lu Ender
Published: August 2023

Purpose
Dupuytren’s contracture (DC) is a common condition that causes flexion contracture of the fingers. Many treatment methods have been described for DC. Patients preferred outpatient treatment options during the COVID-19 pandemic, and percutaneous needle fasciotomy (PNF) can be performed in an office setting. This study reports the results of office-based PNF for Tubiana stage 1 and 2 DC.
Methods
A total of 44 rays in 29 patients (24 males and 5 females) were included. The mean age was 65.2 (49–76) years. Passive extension deficit (PED) of each joint, the visual analog scale (VAS) score for cosmetic appearance, and the Quick-Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (Q-DASH) questionnaire results were recorded before and after treatment. Complications and recurrence rates were noted. The mean follow-up time was 11.6 (8–16) months.
Results
The PEDs for the metacarpophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints decreased in all patients during the early post-treatment period. Q-DASH and cosmetic VAS scores improved in all patients. The recurrence rate was 18% (8 of 44 rays) and a major complication was observed in one patient (rupture of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon).
Conclusion
PNF is a relatively simple procedure that can be performed in an office setting. The functional and cosmetic results were satisfactory in this study, with low recurrence and complication rates. Therefore, PNF may be the first choice treatment option for patients with Tubiana stage 1 and 2 DC.

Amaç: Türk çocuklarında, panoramik radyografilerle yapılan antegonial açı (AGA), antegonial derinlik (AGD) ve bigonial uzunluk (BGU) ölçümlerinin cinsiyet tahmini için güvenilir bir yöntem olup olmadığının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma çocuk hastaların rutin dental muayene ve tedavileri amacı ile alınmış olan panoramik radyografiler üzerinden retrospektif olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmaya, süt dentisyon (4-6 yaş), karma dentisyon (7-12 yaş) ve daimi dentisyon (13-15 yaş) dönemindeki hastaların (n=60) toplam 180 panoramik radyografisi dahil edilmiştir. Her grup için, 30 kız ve 30 erkek hastanın panoramik radyografileri üzerinden AGA, AGD ve BGU parametrelerinin ölçümleri yapılmıştır. Cinsiyete göre tüm ölçümler arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek için bağımsız t testi ve Mann-Whitney U testi kullanılmıştır.

Bulgular: AGA, AGD ve BGU parametrelerinin, bütün yaş gruplarında, cinsiyetler arasında istatiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık göstermediği bulunmuştur (p>0,05).

Sonuç: İç Anadolu Bölgesindeki pediatrik popülasyonda, AGA, AGD ve BGU ölçümlerinin, cinsiyet tahmininde faydalı bir yöntem olmadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
Experience in successfully applying SIR model in Covid-19 pandemic control policy in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
Authors: Van Dieu Nguyen
Published: August 2023

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (Covid-19) has caused considerable chaos around the world. In Vietnam, with a large population and a lack of specialized medical equipment, the disease quickly spread throughout the country. Ho Chi Minh city, where the population density is the highest in the country and is a place of trade and commerce, here the disease outbreak is strongest and has the highest number of deaths in the country. At first, the Ho Chi Minh city government was also confused in the fight against the epidemic because there was no precedent, but in the end, the government thoroughly applied the SIR model and succeeded in extinguishing the disease. This post is intended to provide an overview of the SIR model and the experience that the Ho Chi Minh City government has applied to replicate this model in future epidemic prevention in developing countries like Vietnam.
A systematic review and network meta-analysis of injectable antibiotic treatment options for naturally occurring swine respiratory disease
Authors: O'Connor Annette , Totton Sarah , Shane Douglas
Published: August 2023

Based on an a priori protocol, a review of injectable antibiotic regimens to treat swine respiratory disease (SRD) in weaned swine was conducted to assess the first-treatment failure at 5 to 14 days post-treatment. Information sources included Cambridge Agricultural and Biological Index, MEDLINE, Food and Drug Administration New Animal Drug Approval summaries, Swine Information Library abstracts, and bibliographies of relevant studies and reviews. Two reviewers screened the records, extracted data, and assessed bias risk. From 1266 records screened, 25 relevant records described 41 relevant studies. Thirty-four relevant studies were included in a meta-analysis. The top 3 model-estimated SRD treatments based on mean rank were enrofloxacin (7.5 mg/kg once or 2.5-5 mg/kg once daily for 3-5 days; n = 5; rank = 2; 95% CI, 1-4), gamithromycin (6 mg/kg once, n = 2; rank = 5; 95% CI, 1-14), and marbofloxacin (8 mg/kg once, n = 1; rank = 6; 95% CI, 1-16). When treating SRD, this information should be combined with antibiotic treatment selection criteria including sensitivity testing results, the farm’s pathogen susceptibility monitoring data, local antibiotic prescribing policies, product label recommendations for use and warnings, cost, convenience, importance of the antibiotic to human health, and prudent antibiotic use guidelines.
