Published: February 2022

İstanbul Boğazı’nda Sektör Kadıköy içerisinde yer alan demirleme yerleri (A, B, C demir sahaları) Türk Boğazları’nda gemi trafiğinin en yoğun ve en karmaşık yapıya sahip olduğu deniz alanlarıdır. Bu çalışmada, İstanbul Boğazı’nda gemi trafiğinin en yoğun olduğu Sektör Kadıköy içerisinde yer alan tanker demirleme sahasında olası bir ham petrol gemisi kazası sonucunda oluşabilecek petrol kirliliğinin, akut toksik etkisi modellenmiştir. Çalışmada olası petrol kaynaklı kirlenmenin denizel ekosistemde oluşturabileceği etkinin tespiti için, laboratuvar ortamında Bacterial Bioluminescence Bioassay testiyle, ham petrolün deniz ortamında akut toksisitesi araştırılmıştır. Çalışmada kirliliğin modellenmesi için GNOME Simulasyon Modellemesi yazılımı kullanılmıştır. Modellemede meteorolojik ve oşinografik veriler göz önünde bulundurularak, petrol kirliliğinin etkileyeceği deniz ve kıyı alanları tespit edilmiştir. Sektör Kadıköy olarak seçilen alanda, ham petrolün ulaşabileceği en son noktada bile petrolün toksik etkisinin devam edebileceği görülmüş ve bu noktadan itibaren gereken seyreltme değerleri hesaplanmıştır. Akut toksisite test ölçüm periyotları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. En hızlı müdahale gerektiren petrol kaynaklı kirlenmelerde, akut toksisite testinin 5 dakikalık maruziyet süresi sonuçlarından yararlanılabileceği belirlenmiştir. Bu çalışma ile hem bu özel alanın korunması ve hem de biyoçeşitliliğin etkilenmemesi için petrol kirliliği özelinde çalışmalar, senaryolar ve kıyısal alan koruma planları ile bütünleşik izlemelerin yapılmasının önemi vurgulanabilir.

Published: February 2022

Bioenergy therapy method Reiki, existing since 1922, is widespread in Europe, Asia, North America, Australia, and the former Soviet Union. According to the US National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), Reiki belongs to the methods of com­plementary and alternative medicine, but is increasingly used as a standard procedure in hospitals, hospices and rehabilitation centers. Most of the published results of Reiki efficacy studies relate to pain relief, anxiety, depression, and fatigue. The effects of Reiki for reducing the effects of strokes, epilepsy, normalization of the nervous, immune and endocrine systems in the rehabilitation and overcoming the effects of distress are studied. Studies concern humans, animals, and bacterial cultures. Special attention should be paid to recent studies conducted with a large number of patients, design and methods of evaluation of results that meet the standards of modern traditional evidence-based medicine. To determine promising areas for further research, PubMed information on the proven effects of Reiki on chronic and acute pain, stress-induced states, motor and sensitivity functions, immunity, metabolic and hormonal processes, inflammation, edema, microcirculation in the perspective of physical therapy and rehabilitation. Among the studies of the last twenty years are studies with small samples of patients and animals, which contain interesting hypotheses about the possible mechanisms of action of Reiki. In particular, this is a study by Dyer N.L. et al. (2019). The high interest of researchers in Reiki therapy and good acceptance of the method by many patients were noted. Researchers constantly note that the study of the effectiveness of Reiki should be continued, and determine what part of the effect belongs to the placebo. Other aspects of impact require standardization of methods, randomization, blinding, and strict control of results.

Published: February 2022

The measure of budget deficit has experienced very important semantic transformations as new economic phenomenon have been presented in economic life in México. In this way, we have gone –since origins of the Independent State of New Spain- from the concept of budget deficit to the concepts of economic deficit, operational deficit and financial deficit in the seventies and eighties decades, to get to the concepts of primary economic deficit, financial requirements of public sector and its historics balances nowadays. Searching for a measure indicating the financial position of the government and the public sector is a job that has required to get up to the new economic phenomenon. The empirical evidence documented here shows that depending on the aspects that you wish to highlight in relation to the financial position of the Mexican public sector, will be the selected indicator.
“Does It Identify Me?”: The Multiple Identities of College Students from Rural Areas
Authors: Cain Elise J. , Willis Jenay F. E.
Published: February 2022

The understanding of identities is an important component to understanding students and their experiences in educational contexts, especially in postsecondary education. There is limited information about the identities of college students from rural areas because this student population is often neglected as a distinct group in higher education literature. This article details a study utilizing narrative inquiry to explore the identities of three college students who graduated from high schools in rural areas. The findings suggest that these students’ races and ethnicities, genders and biological sexes, and sexual orientations were their salient social identities. Rurality was not a prominent identity, but their perceptions and experiences were shaped by their rural backgrounds. Rural students’ places of origin and their multiple identities, therefore, should not be ignored within P-20 education.
Race, Repair, and Youth Participatory Action Research in one Rural School
Authors: Thompson Carol , Crockett Felicia
Published: February 2022

This qualitative study examines the progress of a rural New Jersey school in addressing longstanding racial conflict after implementing a Youth Participatory Action Research project two years prior. Here we take up the thread as students continued to develop activities meant to increase awareness of ongoing issues, and as adults used professional development time to model best practices in managing racialized interactions. Eight teachers and staff not originally involved and nine students who had been directly involved were interviewed and a student focus group conducted. All participants agreed that progress had been made though issues around curriculum and discipline remained. Both the adults and the students engaged in considerable self-reflection about their roles. Adults reported the impact of hearing the students’ voices on school practices, and students discussed how their roles as researchers and peer leaders had contributed to their standing as experts.
Grounded in Relationships of Support: Indigenous Teacher Mentorship in the Rural West
Authors: Anthony-Stevens Vanessa , Moss Iva , Como Jacobson Angela , Boysen-Taylor Rebekka , Campbell-Daniels Shawna
Published: February 2022

This article explores the power of Indigenous teacher mentorship as essential to address “the change in point of view” long called for in Indigenous education. Drawing from a longitudinal, ethnographic study of an Indigenous teacher education program in a predominantly rural, high need region, we examine the basic questions: What do Indigenous master teachers uniquely bring to teacher education? In what ways do Indigenous master teachers support the development of socially, culturally, linguistically, and place-responsive teachers? Using the theoretical frameworks of Tribal Critical Race Theory (TribalCrit) and situated learning, our findings elucidate the importance of Indigenous mentorship for re-membering and re-claiming Indigenous epistemologies, ontologies, and axiologies in relational and intergenerational learning—practices that interrupt coloniality in teacher education and school leadership. Discussion of Indigenous teacher mentorship centers the importance of relationships between people and place in teaching and learning and asks educators and school leaders to conceptualize Indigenous teacher education as a long-term project of tribal nation building and community wellbeing.
Just Southern: Navigating the Social Construction of a Rural Community in the Press for Educational Equity
Authors: Sutherland Daniella , McHenry-Sorber Erin , Willingham Jacquelyn N.
Published: February 2022

Rural communities in the Southern US are shaped by a legacy of racial oppression carried out through educational systems, in tandem with contemporary policies that perpetuate the marginalization of minoritized students. In this qualitative, revelatory case study, we examine the experiences of rural, southern school leaders who are tasked with ensuring educational equity. Using critical place-based leadership and bonding/bridging theory, we examine the social construction of belonging in a rural southern community, and the implications for equity-centered educational leadership. We find the community maintains tight-knit bonding capital that is rooted in land ownership and racial exclusion, which is conceptualized as southernness. Educational leaders who develop bridging capital were best positioned to shift community perceptions necessary to enact educational equity.
Direct electrospray patterning deposition for flexible organic devices
Authors: Kanno Ayaka , Moriwaki Takahisa , Yamauchi Hiroshi , Tadokoro Takashi
Published: February 2022

Organic electronic devices are attracting much attention because of their ease of thin-film processing such as inkjet printing. In general, the electrospray deposition (ESD) method is useful for forming uniform thin films. In the present study, we propose a new direct-patterning ESD method in which an electric field is applied between a syringe needle and a patterned counter electrode. Patterned organic semiconductor films were formed on flexible insulator substrates overlying the counter electrodes. In addition, we show that the width of the patterned organic film could be controlled by varying the applied electric field between the syringe needle and counter electrode.

Authors: Mostepaniuk Alla
Published: February 2022

The paper is devoted to investigating corporate social responsibility as a modern strategy of enterprises, including the historical conditions of its emerging and further modification in response to the continuous social and economic changes around the globe. Additionally, the impact of social practices of business was studied regarding their direct and indirect impact on the creation of human and social capital within an organization and at the national level as well, which forms the stable foundation for further economic growth of a company and national economy, simultaneously leads to the improvements in the public wellbeing. It was proved, that the positive impact of social practices can lead to the social capital formation in developed economies, where the state encourages those policies by providing benefits, while in developing/transition economies this impact can be minimized or eliminated by economic, political and social instabilities. Moreover, the link between the voluntary involvement of private companies in providing some extra social services and the modern transformation and reorganization of the state social protection policy was studied to identify the mutual benefits that can be obtained by the two parties and the society in general.

Published: February 2022

Blood transfusion plays a vital role in Obstetrics and Gynaecology and appropriate transfusion practices
can prove as a boon to patient with minimal adverse reactions. Several diseases in obstetrics like,
Obstetric haemorrhage, especially postpartum haemorrhage and antepartum haemorrhage, severe anaemia, ectopic
pregnancy, molar pregnancy requires immediate transfusion of blood to reduce maternal mortality. In gynaecological practice,
certain conditions like broids, cervical cancer, endometrium cancer, ovarian cancer, hysterectomy requires transfusion of
blood mostly to recover operative loss of blood. Written informed consent and pre-transfusion testing is very important before
start of transfusion. For this purpose, role of transfusion medicine specialist is equally important e.g. from the selecting of
appropriate blood and blood components to the pre-transfusion testing and antibody screening of patient's sample. Though,
blood transfusion is a lifesaving process in critical conditions but it is not without side effects and risks. Therefore, some
strategies have been designed to avoid blood transfusion. In conclusion, we can say that before every transfusion risk benet
ratio must be kept in mind and appropriate transfusion practices should be adopted for every blood transfusion.

ASSESSMENT OF OUTCOME IN CASES WITH EXTRAARTICULAR DISTAL THIRD TIBIA FIBULA FRACTURES TREATED WITH INTERLOCKING NAILING OF TIBIA WITH CONCOMITANT FIBULAR FIXATION BY ORIF WITH PLATE OR BY CLOSED NAILING
Authors: Kumar Rajnish , Mehrotra Ravi , Jaiswal Raj
Published: February 2022

BACKGROUND- The present study aimed to assess and compare the radiological and functional
outcome, union time and complications in cases of extraarticular distal third Tibia bula fractures
treated with interlocking nailing of Tibia with concomitant Fibular xation either by ORIF with plate or by closed nailing.
METHODOLOGY- This was observational prospective study which was carried out at Department of Orthopedics in Unique
Super Speciality Centre, Indore (M.P.) for a period of 1 year on adults belonging to age group between 18 to 75 years of either
gender. All the cases were randomly allocated in two groups. During surgery, fracture tibia was managed with the help of
interlocking intramedullay nail in all the cases in both the groups whereas bular fracture in group A were managed using
ORIF with semitubular plate or reconstruction plate and that in group B was managed using CRIF with rush nail/ square nail/ k
wire.
RESULTS-There was no statistically signicant association between the complications and the groups (p>0.05), showing that
the complications is independent of the groups. There was a signicant improvement in the score at 3 months and 6 months
(p<0.05) in both the groups; however, no statistically signicant difference in union time between the two groups (p>0.05). Also
no statistically signicant association between the outcome and the groups (p>0.05) was observed.
CONCLUSION- The choice of xation for adjunctive stabilization of bula has no effect on the fracture tibia union and the
ultimate functional outcome. Closed nailing is better where the soft tissue morbidity is high (as in high velocity trauma and open
fractures) and where bones are weak (elderly patients). Other immunocompromised states such as diabetes in which there are
higher infection rates with traditional plating techniques.

Published: February 2022

In this study the factors related to capital structure in Indian Real Estate Investment Trusts (I-REITs) have
been analyzed. An empirical investigation had been made by using predictors such as Return on equity
(ROE), Return on assets (ROA), Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) and Net Prot Margin (NPM). The capital structure (debt to
equity ratio) has been used as dependent variable. Secondary data has been gathered from nancial statements of the
company. The literature needed for this study has been taken from academic journals, books and internet. The major nding is
that a low Debt to Equity suggests I-REITs are less risky. We can understand that there is no signicant relationship exists
between capital structure and performance of the companies.

Les tableaux maudits, en France et en Russie
Authors: Gonneau Pierre
Published: February 2022

I. Repin’s “Ivan the Terrible and his son”, exhibited in 1885, in a very tense social and political context, sparked off fierce reactions. While the Itinerant painter Kramskoj is enthusiastic, the ge-neral-prosecutor of the Holy Synod, K. Pobedonoscev, finds the painting “simply repulsive”. In France a similar scandal was caused by Gericault’s “Raft of the Medusa” (1819). It represents the last instants of the martyrdom of the survivors of the Medusa’s shipwreck (1816). Repin’s painting, unlike that of Gericault, keeps on arousing a great hostility nowadays in conservative Russian circles.

Triplet loss for Chromosome Classification
Authors: Gajjar Pranshav , Shah Pooja , Vegada Akash , Savalia Jainish
Published: February 2022

The analysis of chromosomes, known as karyotyping, is essential in diagnosing various human genetic disorders and chromosomal aberrations. It can detect a variety of genetic diseases and provide a deeper insight into the human body. However, the process of manual karyotyping is highly time-consuming and requires accomplished professionals with a deep understanding in the field. An automated process is thus highly desirable to assist cytogeneticists and mitigate the cognitive load procured during karyotyping. With that intention, a similarity learning approach is proposed in this paper using ‘Triplet Loss’ for procuring high-dimensional embeddings. The Offline Triplet Loss, Semi-Hard Online mining, and associated hyperparameters are thoroughly tested and explored, and the obtained embeddings are used to classify the images into their respective chromosome classes and Denver groups. A comparative analysis on various embedding-classifying algorithms such as Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) and Nearest Neighbours is also demonstrated in this paper, along with experiments on associated distance metrics. The proposed methodologies deliver a superlative performance when compared to a baseline Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), on a publicly available chromosome classification dataset.
Analysis of Software Sizing and Project Estimation prediction by Machine Learning Classification
Authors: Sathesh A. , Hamdan Yasir Babiker
Published: February 2022

In this study, the outcomes of trials with various projects are analyzed in detail. Estimators may decrease mistakes by combining several estimating strategies, which helps them maintain a close eye on the difference between their estimations and reality. An effort estimate is a method for estimating a model's correctness by calculating the total amount of effort needed. It's a major pain in the backside of software development. Several prediction methods have recently been created to find an appropriate estimate. The suggested SVM approach is utilized to reduce the estimation error for the project estimate to the lowest possible value. As a result, throughout the software sizing process, the ideal or exact forecast is achieved. Early in a model's development, the estimate is erroneous since the needs are not defined, but as the model evolves, it becomes more and more accurate. Because of this, it is critical to choose a precise estimate for each software model development. Observations and suggestions for further study of software sizing approaches are also included in the report.

Published: February 2022

Provenance testing can provide information on silvicultural behavior and wood quality of species for selection of genetic material for different locations and conservation of the genetic base. The aim of this work was to study the longitudinal variation of basic density, volumetric shrinkage and microfibril angle of wood from two provenances (Assis and Bauru) of Handroantus impetiginosus planted in Luiz Antonio SP. After 26 years of planting, twelve trees were felled, six from each provenance. According to the results obtained, it could be concluded that the analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that for the provenance there was a significant variation for the volumetric shrinkage of the wood and for basic wood density and microfibril angle the significance of variation did not occur. The basic wood density varied significantly between the different positions, at the height of the tree and for volumetric shrinkage, and for the microfibril angle it did not occur. There is a positive relationship between tree height and basic wood density of wood, for Assis and Bauru provenances.

The development of national agriculture has an organizational and managerial dimension at the macro-, meso- and microlevels. Measurement at the macro level is characterized by the dynamics of such indicators as the number of people employed in agricultural production and the share of the rural population, the share of agricultural products in the structure of GDP, labor productivity in agriculture. The organizational and managerial dimension at the mesolevel gives an idea of the productivity of agricultural production in a spatial context. Finally, at the micro level, an assessment of the organizational effectiveness of the management of a separate agricultural enterprise is given. The article is devoted to the analysis and assessment of the organizational potential for the development of agriculture in the Republic of South Ossetia in 2016–2020 in the context of Tskhinvali, Dzau, Znauri and Leningor it regions.

In modern economic conditions, an effective way to form a digital infrastructure is a public-private partnership, which consists in mutually beneficial interaction between the state and business. The purpose of this article is to study the practice of using digital technologies in the implementation of public-private partnership projects, taking into account foreign experience. The paper uses general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, as well as the method of graphical interpretation of the results. A comparative analysis of budget and private investments in the total amount of financing of public-private partnership in Russian practice has been carried out; the main types of digital technologies used in the implementation of PPP projects have been studied. The possibilities of the digital solution of ROSINFRA, which allows to activate the processes of attracting investments, are considered. One of the possibilities of ROSINFRA’s digital solution is the formation of an interactive rating of the subjects of the Russian Federation according to the level of development of public-private partnership, which will strengthen the attraction of private investment for the implementation of infrastructure projects in a particular region. The results of the research are the generalization and systematization of the practical experience of digitalization of public-private partnership in Russian and foreign practice. Recommendations aimed at popularizing projects based on the principles of public-private partnership are formulated.

Evaluating the Intersection of Technology and Nuclear Escalation in South Asia
Authors: CHEN Kaiman
Published: February 2022

There are range of factors that are shaping nuclear issues in South Asia. Among these, India and Pakistan remain outside the Treaty on the Non-proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty. Further, their religious conflicts, ethnic disputes, military confrontations and territorial disputes remain fierce and acute. The confluence of these factors means that when a crisis occurs, India and Pakistan are more likely to misjudge the situation due to poor communication, or to even face the use of tactical nuclear weapons. This essay examines the convergence of technology and nuclear escalation. It concludes by offering some conclusions about external powers that are often involved in the technological procurement and their both stabilising and destabilising impacts on South Asia.

Keywords: Nuclear Escalation, Treaty on the Non-proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, South Asia

The multi-rotors have a short working duration and produce excessive noise, which is insufficient for complicated jobs and has a negative impact on human and animal health. Nonetheless, their market is growing in popularity. As a result, low-noise products are more competitive, and aerodynamic and acoustic enhancements are essential. The goal of this research is to create a small bioinspired propeller with the same power input as a conventional propeller that achieves the same or better aerodynamic performance while reducing noise. Accordingly, an experiment looked at the effects of different operating circumstances and geometric factors on the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic performance of a small propeller with a distinctive planform shape inspired by Hemiptera. This propeller was run at eleven rotational speeds ranging from 3000 to 8000 RPM with no freestream velocity to simulate hover circumstances. When compared to the baseline propeller, the Hemiptera propeller produce greater thrust for the same power source, reduce harmonic and broadband noise, and offer a better noise level. This noise reduction might be attributed to a decrease in Hemiptera propeller force fluctuation. Furthermore, its rotational speed is lower and its figure of merit is higher than the baseline propeller at hover flying with 3N thrust. Moreover, at this force, the Hemiptera propeller shows a 2.8W power reduction and a 5 dB decrease in acoustic signature. When it comes to hover efficiency, the Hemiptera propeller outperforms the baseline propeller across the board, regardless of thrust.

There appears to exist limited research regarding the integration of Knowledge Management (KM) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO)’s ISO9001 Quality Management Systems (QMS) for Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs), for Trinidad and Tobago (TT) and the Caribbean Region. TT has over 16,000 SMEs and approximately 10,000 micro enterprises, representing over 70% of all registered businesses, that employs over 50% of the workforce. SMEs spark competition, create jobs, as well as promote innovation and knowledge transfer, thus are the engine of economic growth. SMEs in TT need to develop KM practices to compete regionally and globally, especially with the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has triggered the deepest economic recession worldwide. Existing integrated KM models in other jurisdictions cannot be adopted in TT as KM is a culturally sensitive platform that needs to be customized to its applied environment. Results of a survey identified the Critical Success Factors (CSFs) for both Quality Management (QM) and KM required for the successful implementation of a Knowledge Management System (KMS). Data obtained showed that although the SMEs in TT demonstrated insignificant KM maturity, there is KM readiness, due to the existence of QMSs, significant information systems, human resource support, technical infrastructure, and senior management commitment. A five phase KM/QM integration model for SMEs in TT is proposed. Managers of SMEs and other similar operations may apply the findings of this study to develop strategies to integrate QM and KM to improve business results.
