Case Report On Triple Vessel Disease
Authors: Walke Monali P.
Published: July 2023

Coronary artery bypass gratis (CABG) is the treatment of choice in patients with triple vessel disease (TVD). If the patient has TVD but is asymptomatic, the dilemma is whether to con nue with medical management or to op on for revascularization. CAD prevalence predicts that half of the healthy old males in the United States will grow CAD in the future, while 1 in 3 healthy females will develop CAD. Although the research differs, it is es mated that approximately 26-33 per cent of all CAD patients will experience triple vessel disease. This corresponds to around 1 in 8 males and 1 in 12 females who will grow TVD in their lifetime. In the US, 40.9 million men and 27.2 million women are currently affected by triple vessel disease in their lifetime. Since leti main coronary artery was involved, a person must undergo CABG to prevent sudden cardiac death.

African Media and the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) Agenda for Africa’s Emerging Democracies
Authors: Oluyinka Esan
Published: July 2023

The paper discusses the peculiar location and roles assigned to media of communication in the democratic ideal. It makes a modest attempt to identify the share of the media in the creation of the problems commonly identified by the leaders in the continent. There is also a critique of the roles assigned to the media on the defined path to recovery. It begins with an examination of the model advanced by Habermas. This is a model based on the Libertarian principles upon which Western societies are founded. The paper identifies some of the contrasts between this Libertarian orientation and other theories of the press, and argues for what should be the ideal role of the media. To this end, it explores the location of the media in the aspirations of New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD).
L’Afrique entre Dieu et dieux : le mouvement pendulaire de la foi
Authors: Assouman Bamba
Published: July 2023

L’esprit religieux est une constante qui traverse toutes les cultures de l’humanité. Chaque peuple du monde, sans consulter les autres, a, de façon innée, l’intuition du divin que traduit une terminologie précise. Alors que le divin se dit comme pluriel dans les pratiques animistes des sociétés traditionnelles d’Afrique avec un panthéon riche de dieux variés aux fonctions diverses que cordonne un Dieu suprême, il se vit de plus en plus dans l’Afrique dite moderne d’aujourd’hui comme un singulier sans assistants. On peut ainsi observer une interpénétration des modes religieux exclusifs qui vacillent constamment entre les dieux des animistes, le Dieu des monothéistes et le sans Dieu du bouddhisme. Ce syncrétisme religieux installe un pourrissement de la foi qui pervertit les valeurs en Afrique.
INFLUENCE OF NANOPARTICLES (Ti, Ni, Si) ON INDICATORS OF INDUCED MUTATIONS OF DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER
Authors: Yaschenko Anastasia , Yachna Maryna , Mekhed Olha , Tretyak Olexandr
Published: July 2023

In recent years, interest in the role of nanoparticles has increased significantly, in particular, their ability to influence mutagenesis is being studied. Studying the effect of nanoparticles on the functioning of eukaryotes using the example of a test object Drosophila melanogaster Meigen is used to assess the possible ecological consequences of their practical use.
The purpose: to investigate the effect of nanoparticles of Titanium, Nickel and Silicon on the features of development and mutagenesis in D. melanogaster. The object of the study: peculiarities of the development of flies of the species D. melanogaster line Canton S. The subject of the study: the effect of nanoparticles of Titanium, Nickel and Silicon on the development of flies of the species D. melanogaster line Canton S.
Methodology. To assess the genetic variability of experimental populations of drosophila, standard methods of accounting for the dynamics of adaptation were used based on numbers and sex ratios; fertility; statistical methods of information processing.
The scientific novelty of the work lies in the fact that for the first time the effect of Titanium, Nickel and Silicon nanoparticles on the occurrence of mutations in D. melanogaster and general biological indicators of animals.
Conclusions. The main requirements for nanoparticles in relation to their use in industry and provenance are: low or no toxicity, high biocompatibility, the ability to biodegrade or be removed from the body naturally. With the presence of nanoparticles in the nutrient medium, mutations were observed in flies: reduced wings and a discolored body and additional antennae and an elongated proboscis. In the second generation, the percentage of mutant individuals becomes smaller compared to the first generation. This is explained by the induction of repair systems in individuals that were developing in the presence of the investigated substances. In all recorded cases of mutagenesis, the number of females is statistically significantly greater than the number of males. When studying the mutational effect of nanoparticles in the offspring of both generations (F1 and F2), differences in the number of mutant individuals in males and females under the influence of the same substances are unlikely. Titanium nanoparticles have a more pronounced mutagenic effect. Taking into account the percentage value of mutations, we can conclude that there is a positive correlation between the concentration of the studied substances and the quantitative indicators of mutations.

Published: July 2023

This research investigated the accumulation of four heavy metals: Pb, Cd, As, and Hg in male and female crabs obtained from four creeks in Bayelsa State and the potential health risks associated with their consumption. The heavy metals were analyzed using Micro-Wave Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrophotometer 4200 Agilent. The mean concentrations of Pb (mg/kg) in the male crabs obtained in Nembe, Taylor, Kolo and Nuno creeks were 41.13±0.17, 31.23±0.12, 38.70±0.33 and 11.63±0.37 respectively, whereas those of the female crabs were 45.63±0.25, 32.00±0.24, 40.00 0.08 and 12.20±0.08 respectively. The mean concentrations of Cd (mg/Kg) in the male crabs from the same creeks were 46.77±0.42, 37.23±0.17, 41.83±0.37 and 28.60±0.29 respectively, whereas those of the female crabs were 47.73±0.37, 39.65±0.45, 45.03±0.25 and 29.40±0.08 respectively. The mean concentrations of As (mg/Kg) in the male crabs from the same creeks were 5.067±0.21, 4.83±0.21, 4.73±0.21 and 1.77±0.12 respectively, whereas those of the female crabs were 6.03±0.17, 5.13±0.17, 5.10±0.08 and 2.07±0.12 respectively. The mean concentrations of Hg (mg/Kg) in the male crabs from the same creeks were 7.87±1.37, 5.57±0.16, 6.80±1.14 and 5.93±0.90 respectively, whereas those of the female crabs were 9.20±0.99, 6.40±0.54, 9.23±1.01 and 6.17 ±0.09 respectively. The concentrations of all the heavy metals were generally higher than the permissible level by Food and Agriculture Organization and World Health Organization in seafood. Statistical analysis of the level of the studied metals showed there is a significant difference p< (0.05). The Total Hazard Quotient (THQ) in all the blue crab in all the creeks were less than 1. The Estimated Metal Intake, Health Risk Index,  and Carcinogenic Risk indicated a risk of developing cancer over time due to the ingestion of Pb, Cd, and As. From the results, the health risks associated with exposure to the heavy metals through the consumption of the blue crabs for the inhabitants in the study area are in the order: Pb ˃Cd>Hg>As. Therefore, blue crabs from the creeks under study are considered unsafe for consumption.

Plato's Charmides
Authors: Woolf Raphael
Published: July 2023

Plato's Charmides is a rich mix of drama and argument. Raphael Woolf offers a comprehensive interpretation of its disparate elements that pays close attention to its complex and layered structure, and to the methodology of reading Plato. He thus aims to present a compelling and unified interpretation of the dialogue as a whole. The book mounts a strong case for the formal separation of Plato the author from his character Socrates, and for the Charmides as a Platonic defence of the written text as a medium for philosophical reflection. It lays greater emphasis than other readings on the centrality of eros to an understanding of Socratic procedure in the Charmides, and on how the dialogue's erotic and medical motifs work together. The book's critical engagement with the dialogue allows a worked-out account to be given of how temperance, the central object of enquiry in the work, is to be conceived.

The impact of childcare availability on maternal employment: Evidence from Czech municipalities
Authors: Kalíšková Klára , Münich Daniel
Published: July 2023

This study presents empirical estimates of the effects of local public kindergarten availability on the employment rate of mothers of preschool-aged children in the Czech Republic. It brings together data from the Population Census and School Register to form a unique database describing the demand for childcare (numbers of children aged 3–5) and supply (capacity) across more than 6,000 Czech municipalities between 2001 and 2011. We take advantage of variations in kindergarten availability over time to estimate the impact on maternal employment with a first differences model. Our estimates show that a 10 percentage point increase in the availability of kindergarten places led to a 0.2–0.4 percentage point increase in the employment rate of mothers of preschool-aged children. A drop in the availability of kindergarten places between 2001 and 2011 resulted in 9,000 fewer mothers being employed and a net loss to public finances of 1.2–1.7 billion CZK per year.
Legal Reform against the Conflict of Norms in The Corruption Eradication Commission Law
Authors: Pahlevi Reza , Bustomi Yazid
Published: July 2023

This research aims to address and propose solutions to the issue of conflicting norms within Indonesian Anti-Corruption Act (Act 19/2019). It is a normative study conducted through a statutory and conceptual approach. Primary and secondary legal materials were collected and analyzed prescriptively. The study suggests resolving the conflict between Article 69D and Article 70B-70C by applying the principle of Lex Posterior Derogat Legi Priori. As a result of this conflict, there are ongoing corruption cases that must now follow the legal process outlined in Act 19/2019, even if the alleged offenses took place prior to its enactment. This situation creates a loophole for objections to the legal process, raising concerns regarding justice, benefits, and legal certainty. Consequently, legal reforms are necessary to address these concerns and improve Act 19/2019. Based on these findings, this research asserts that regulations pertaining to corruption eradication should ensure the integrity of the rules by eliminating conflicts of norms and conflicts of interest. In cases where the process of updating regulations faces challenges, the government can establish derivative regulations or implement conflicting norms to achieve the legal objectives of justice, certainty, and benefit within Act 19/2019.
Urban Green Space Policy Reform in Indonesia: Breathing in the Middle of Development
Authors: Valones Atty Genald Malvas , Junaedi Ulil Albab
Published: July 2023

Rapid population growth and limited land availability have resulted in a decline in environmental space utilization, including green open spaces, which are crucial for oxygen production and supporting biodiversity. Land conversion driven by increased land demand exacerbates this issue. This research focuses on two main problems: the adherence of the Salatiga City Local Government in Indonesia to the minimum area requirement for green open spaces mandated by Law No. 26 of 2007, and the forms and utilization of green open spaces within the city. This research reveals deficiencies and obstacles in implementing the policy, leading to a failure in meeting the minimum area target. Factors such as idealistic policy pursuit, delegation of authority issues, and excessive emphasis on perfection rather than practical relevance contribute to these challenges. The Salatiga City Regional Spatial Plan, outlined in Regional Regulation Number 4 of 2011, designates green open spaces as protected areas, encompassing city parks, cemeteries, urban forests, border rivers, and green belts. However, obstacles arise from small area sizes, incorrect initial land use practices, and inadequate resolution of land ownership issues. Despite these challenges, the City of Salatiga has partially maintained the functionality of these spaces, prioritizing their overarching purpose over specific land use. In conclusion, this research highlights the shortcomings in implementing Green Open Space policies in Salatiga. It emphasizes the importance of addressing land-related issues and ensuring proper management of green spaces. Resolving these challenges is crucial for enhancing environmental sustainability and benefiting both the community and the environment.

Published: July 2023

Háttér és cél – A poststroke afázia súlyossága számos demográfiai, laesiospecifikus és klinikai faktorral összefüggést mutathat, az eredmények azonban az egyes faktorok jelentőségét tekintve ellentmondóak. A jelen kutatás célja a demográfiai és klinikai faktorok afáziasúlyosságra, valamint a receptív és az expresszív nyelvi képességekre gyakorolt hatásának vizsgálata volt magyar anyanyelvű mintán. Módszerek – A kutatásban 94, többségében egyoldali, bal féltekei stroke (87,88%) utáni afáziát mutató személy vett részt. Többszörös stepwise lineáris regresszió segítségével vizsgáltuk a lehetséges prediktorok – nem, életkor, iskolázottság, az agyi történés óta eltelt idő, etiológia, lokalizáció, kisérbetegségek következtében kialakuló patológiás agyi elváltozások és egyéb neurogén kommunikációs zavarok/nyelészavarok társulása – és a nyelvi kimenet közötti kapcsolatot. Kimeneti változóként a Magyar Afázia Szűrőtesztben elért összpontszámot, a szűrőteszt receptív nyelvi mutatóját és a szűrőteszt expresszív nyelvi mutatóját emeltük a regressziós modellbe. Eredmények – Mintánkban az alacsony iskolai végzettség, a patológiás elváltozások (fehérállományi hipodenzitások/ hiperintenzitások és subcorticalis lacunaris laesiók) megjelenése és a beszédapraxia társulása súlyosabb afáziával, a patológiás elváltozások és a beszédapraxia társulása alacsonyabb expresszív nyelvi teljesítmén ­ nyel járt együtt. Az iskolai végzettség, a patológiás elváltozások megjelenése és a nem a receptív nyelvi teljesítményt jósolta be (mindhárom modell esetén p < 0,05). Következtetés – A patológiás elváltozások és a beszédapraxia társulása, az iskolázottság és a nem hatással lehet a nyelvi kimenetre poststroke afázia esetén. Eredményeinket a nemzetközi szakirodalom tükrében részletesen tárgyaljuk.

HEAT STROKE IN PAKISTAN AND ITS DEVASTATING PUBLIC HEALTH IMPACT
Authors: Shah Shafqat Ali
Published: July 2023

Over the last two decades, the incidence of heat-related mortality among individuals aged 65 and above has risen by 50%. In 2018 alone, the global toll of extreme heat exposure led to the tragic loss of 296,000 lives. Heat stroke, a life-threatening condition resulting from prolonged exposure to high temperatures, has become a growing concern in Pakistan. With scorching summers and the impacts of climate change, the country has witnessed a significant increase in heat stroke cases, posing a severe threat to public health. Vulnerable populations, such as the elderly, young children, outdoor laborers, and those with pre-existing health conditions, are particularly at risk. The lack of awareness, limited access to healthcare facilities, and inadequate infrastructure further exacerbate the problem. The rise in temperatures and the prevalence of heat stroke have transformed this issue into a public health crisis. Immediate health complications, including organ failure and death, are a direct consequence of heat stroke. Moreover, long-term health problems such as cardiovascular disorders and respiratory illnesses can persist even after recovery. The economic burden resulting from hospitalizations, loss of productivity, and increased healthcare expenditure adds to the gravity of the situation. Addressing the heat stroke epidemic requires a comprehensive and multi-faceted approach. Public awareness campaigns should be initiated to educate individuals on preventive measures, emphasizing the importance of hydration, appropriate clothing, and recognizing early signs of heat stroke. Additionally, the establishment of cooling centers in densely populated areas and low-income neighborhoods can provide relief to those lacking access to air conditioning. Furthermore, employers must prioritize the safety and well-being of outdoor workers by implementing protective measures and offering regular breaks in shaded areas. Adequate training and awareness among employers and workers about heat stress and the need for proper rest and hydration can significantly reduce the risk.

Authors: Gunarjo Suryanto Budi
Published: July 2023

This article reports the results of research on the application of the turbulent model to fluid flow in cavities. This turbulent model was developed using the turbulent kinetic energy equation k, dissipation ɛ and temperature variance θ2 and applying the damping function f. While the equations about the tensor of stress and the vector of heat flux are formulated algebraically. This simulation is carried out at the Rayleigh number Ra = 5 x 1010. This turbulent model is applied to a three-dimensional cavity in the form of a cube and a room with a ratio of 1:2:3. The results were validated using experimental results and Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) numerical data. Validation of the simulation results shows that the model can predict fluid flow relatively according to the DNS and experimental results. Besides that, this model is relatively simple, easy to use, the grid size is quite applicable for simulation, it is quite stable and the convergence time is relatively fast. From the simulation results it can be concluded that this turbulent model can be easily and fairly accurately applied to indoor airflow
TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION
Authors: Joshi Shveta
Published: July 2023

With the advent of innovative technology, many traditional schools have resorted to modern techniques to facilitate student learning. Early steps recognize the role of technology in education. Which indicates the importance of audio-visual equipment like tele media, recording media, computer etc. Thus, educational technology emphasizes the art of employing so-called hardware, innovative media, and machine industry methods for educational purposes. It has now become clear that the systematic way in which technology is used to achieve a purpose is as important as the use of technology. Today the software aspect of educational technology has reached an important point i.e. it is useful in molding behavioural practices or in other words useful for solving problems of promoting learning and motivation. The most widely known meaning of educational technology today is more special than the acquisition of its hardware or software.
Frequência de infecções urinárias causadas por leveduras do gênero causadas por leveduras do gênero Candida
Authors: Oliveira Viviane Regina de , Beretta Ana Laura Remédio Zeni
Published: July 2023

A infecção do trato urinário (ITU) constitui uma das principais causas de consultas médicas, perdendo apenas para as infecções respiratórias. A ITU é uma afecção muito comum, correspondendo à grande parte dos processos infecciosos comunitários e hospitalares. Caracteriza-se pela presença de microrganismos, habitualmente bactérias, na bexiga, na próstata, no sistema coletor (rins) ou nas vias urinárias. As leveduras do gênero Candida compreendem cerca de 200 espécies na natureza. Quando a fonte utilizada é a urina, o isolamento de leveduras varia de 25 a 71% em indivíduos saudáveis, e a C. albicans aparece com 4 a 62% do total. Atualmente a Candida albicans tem sido citada como a espécie mais frequentemente isolada em infecções urinárias por fungo unicelular, seguida da C. glabrata. Os procedimentos invasivos, o uso intensivo de antibióticos, o tratamento neoplásico, os transplantes favorecem infecções fúngicas (oportunistas de vias urinárias) causadas por Candida. Objetivando-se analisar a frequência com que ocorrem as infecções urinárias causadas por Candida, o presente estudo foi realizado por meio de pesquisas em endereços eletrônicos e artigos científicos. Os resultados obtidos após a aplicação da metodologia preconizada sugerem que a frequência da infecção do trato urinário por leveduras do gênero Candida vem aumentando nos últimos anos; entretanto, mais estudos são necessários para concluir sua epidemiologia no Brasil e no mundo, visto que as publicações com essa temática ainda são muito escassas. C. albicans é a espécie mais comumente isolada na urina, sendo responsável por cerca de 50 a 70% dos casos clínicos, seguida de outras espécies.
O processo civilizador nas escolas

Published: July 2023

Este trabalho fundamenta-se em uma reflexão a partir da pesquisa desenvolvida por Boto (2010), em que aborda os trabalhos desenvolvidos nas escolas portuguesas entre o século XIX e início do século XX, objetivando o processo civilizador do alunado. Desde o início da préescola, a passagem por esse processo era vista como essencial para que o indivíduo aprendesse a conviver no “mundo dos adultos”, ou seja, constituindo-se como cidadão-restringindo interesses individuais em prol do bem-comum. A análise elaborada pondera sobre a atualidade dessa forma de se pensar a educação da criança na Educação brasileira contemporânea. A escola preocupa-se com o cumprimento curricular de conteúdos “enciclopédicos”, que, materializados nos materiais didáticos e práticas educativas, parece continuar a visar à domesticação de corpos e mentes, e não se compromete com os pré-requisitos de formação do pensamento crítico e autônomo, essenciais para a formação dos futuros agentes de transformação social e líderes do país.
A CONTRASTIVE STUDY ON THE STRUCTURAL MODEL OF COMPARATIVE IDIOMS WITH THE WORD “КАК” IN THE RUSSIAN LANGUAGE AND “NHƯ” IN THE VIETNAMESE LANGUAGE
Authors: Đoàn Thục Anh
Published: July 2023

Idioms play a key role in the lexical system of a language. Idioms often attract researchers’ interest as these fixed phrases contain historical and cultural information for which idioms are considered the most diverse cultural-linguistic unit. There are a large number of idioms containing the word “как” in Russian and the word “như” in Vietnamese. Russian comparative idioms have yet been researched but merely mentioned in idiom dictionaries. A similar picture can be seen in Vietnamese comparative idioms. We conduct this study with an aim to analyze and describe key attributes of comparative idioms, to compare those in Russian and Vietnamese as long as to provide evidences in an independent idiom group system. On the basis of analyzing the corpus collected in idiom dictionaries and Russian-Vietnamese dictionaries as well as literary works, we contrast basic structural models of comparative idioms containing the word “как” in Russian and the word “như” in Vietnamese.

CULTURAL COMPONENTS IN THE SEMANTICS OF KINSHIP TERMS IN RUSSIAN AND VIETNAMESE CULTURES
Authors: A.S. Mamontov  , M.A. Nefedkina
Published: July 2023

The article examines the kinship terminology presented through the comparison of Russian and Vietnamese lingua-cultural aspects to identify their functional features, amount and structures. In modern linguistics, the issue of lexical units having the same “kinship” seme in the Russian and Vietnamese languages is relatively under-researched. To contrast the kinship terminologies, the authors use the following methods: comparison, synchronic linguistic analysis and classification of research materials, comparative-typological investigation, component analysis and linguocultural analysis. The research finds that the Vietnamese language has more terms of kinship than the Russian language. Moreover, the semantic features referring to “age in one generation” and “paternal or maternal kinship” play the most important role in Vietnamese linguistic culture. Both cultures are characterized by respect to hierarchy and androcentrism. A lot of semes rarely used in Russian language are typical of Vietnamese language.

Authors: S. Khalid
Published: July 2023

Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVEs) are used for training, education, tele- conferencing and assembly of synthetic objects. Network latency, loose coordination, no task distribution strategy and less awareness are the main factors that affect user performance in CVEs. The effect of network latency on user performance in CVE was analyzed. Visual and audio feedback was used for communication between the collaborators. Based on task distribution model, a simulated environment for collaborative assembly task was developed to conduct the experiments. The experiments were performed on different college students comprising of 20 virtual teams of 40 individuals using the latency from 0 to 5000 msec in LAN. The result showed that the user‟s performance was better in dynamic with audio with no latency, but whenever the lag was increased the task completion time increased than dynamic with textual based. At 1000 msec latency, the dynamic with audio and textual modality values were almost the same. Above 1000 msec of latency, the user performance in dynamic with textual was better as compared to dynamic with audio.

Authors: M. U. Chattha
Published: July 2023

Zinc (Zn) is an integral part of many enzymes and proteins required by plants for different physiological functions. The field study was conducted to determine the influence of zinc on growth and yield of maize hybrid under skipping irrigations at different growth stages. The experiment comprised of two factors, irrigation treatment viz regular irrigation system (8 irrigations, control) and skip irrigation at knee high and tasseling stages and Zn application treatments i.e. non-Zn application as control, soil application @ 9, 18 and 27 kg ha-1. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with split plot arrangement having three replications. The results showed that application of zinc @ 27 kg ha-1 gave maximum leaf area index (5.16), crop growth rate (20.26 g m-2 day-1), 1000-grain weight (255.03 g), grain yield (5.64 t ha-1) and harvest index (34.5%) than lower doses of zinc and minimum was recorded for control treatment. Similarly, for skipping irrigations, maximum improvement in growth and yield was observed with full irrigations, while irrigation skipped at tasseling stage negatively influenced the growth and yield of hybrid maize than at knee height stage. In conclusion, soil applied zinc at 27 kg ha-1 and normal irrigations helped in improving the growth and yield of autumn planted maize.

Published: July 2023

The sugar industry wastewater contains huge amount of pollutants. Different treatment methods for the effluent are available like biological, ion-exchange, electrocoagulation, ozonation, coagulation-flocculation and adsorption etc. Rapid development by industrialization in developing countries, less environment friendly measures cause of water pollution. This in turn, results in lack of quality for drinking and irrigation. Single treatment way is not feasible to treat the highly polluted effluent and not possible to manage the permissible limits of National Environmental Quality Standards which is getting more strict with passage of time, by the regulatory bodies like Pakistan Environmental Protection Agency in Pakistan. In this study the effluent was treated by coagulation followed by activated charcoal. Three coagulants, alum, ferric chloride and ferrous sulphate were applied. Using different doses of coagulants and activated charcoal achieved remarkable results. The total dissolved solids were decreased upto 87% and total suspended solids upto 98%.

Published: July 2023

For singular even order symmetric differential operators we find the matrices which determine all symmetric extensions of the minimal operator. And for each of these symmetric operators which is bounded below we find the boundary condition of its Friedrichs extension. The operators of regular problems are bounded below and thus each one has a symmetric extension and thus its symmetric extension has a Friedrichs extension.
