Multiple linear regression for the estimation of steric effect in cyclic systems from calculation of C-13 chemical shifts and employing parameters derived using DFT method
Authors: Al-Hyali Emad A. S. , Othman Yosef
Published: April 2022

In this work, differences between C-13 chemical shift calculated by the linear addition method (LAM) and the practical values is used as a measure of the steric effects. The C-13NMR chemical shift of a number of saturated and aromatic cyclic organic compounds were selected for achieving this study. The results obtained exhibited high agreement between the calculated and practical values, deviation is only noticed on locations exhibited steric hindrance caused by the substitution of methyl groups on two neighboring carbon atoms. The study proved that the amount of shift resulting from the spatial effect is of an additive character. The amount of shift due steric effect noticed was similar in both aromatic or saturated systems unless other factor is interfered. Density functional theory (DFT) methods is applied to calculate the bond lengths, of the aromatic molecules (toluenes), electronic densities, and the heat of formation using the method B3LYP at basis set 3-21G by (Chem office V.12,2010). Their relationship to space interference were investigated.

Twierdzę, że Michael B. Roberts, autor tekstu zestawiającego poglądy Williama Bucklanda i Michaela J. Behe’ego na tematprojektu, błędnie przedstawił stanowisko tego drugiego. Roberts odniósł się do zaproponowanej przez Behe’ego „idei dwuaspektowego stworzenia”, która „w części dotyczy […] tego, co zaprojektowane, a w części tego, co pojmowane naturalistycznie”. Roberts pisał o koncepcji dwuaspektowego stworzenia, natomiast Behe dostrzegł trzy aspekty: pierwszy dotyczy struktur lub procesów, które noszą wyraźne znamiona projektu; drugi obejmuje struktury lub procesy, co do których nie można z całą pewnością orzec, że zostały zaprojektowane; trzeci dotyczy struktur lub procesów, które można wyjaśnić zdarzeniami przypadkowymi. Główny argument krytyczny Robertsa nie podważa trójaspektowego podejścia, które przyjmuje Behe.

Estimating the Tail Index of Conditional Distribution of Asset Returns
Authors: Davletov Feruzbek
Published: April 2022

Massive stock market failures in the past decades cast a doubt on the standard normality assumption of many economic models. Despite decent research on the non-Gaussian characteristics of many financial time series, the question of tail heaviness still remains open. We conduct diagnostic analysis on the conditional distribution of asset returns of small/large companies (Russell 2000 and S&P 500) to look for clear evidence on the presence of heavy tails. We employ extreme value (EVT) tools in order to estimate the shape parameter () of Generalized Pareto distribution (GPD) using a well-known “Hill estimator”. It turns out that the shape parameter lies in the interval  implying that the conditional distribution of asset returns supposedly has finite mean and variance. We also find an evidence that the tail estimates experience structural breaks during 2008 Global Financial Crisis.

Published: April 2022

Around the world, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) constitute the leading cause of morality. By 2030, it is expected that the number of persons killed by CVDs will have risen to more than 24 million. The majority of the raw materials used in pharmaceutical preparations come from medicinal plants. They are gaining popularity as a result of their efficacy and the rising expense of contemporary drugs. Aspirin is derived from willow bark, morphine is derived from the opium poppy, quinine is derived from the cinchona bark, and digoxin is derived from the foxglove. According to the World Health Organization (WTO), 70% to 80% of people across the world rely on botanical sources to manage their illnesses. Plant sources are recommended because they include a high concentration of antioxidants and phytochemicals, which assist to prevent and handle a number of ailments.

Phoenix dactylifera L., especially the Ajwa species, has the highest concentration of phytonutrients, which can help stabilize a number of cardiovascular disorders. It contains six vitamins (vitamins A, C, B1, B2, B3, and riboflavin), as well as a high amount of fibre, potassium, magnesium, and 23 amino acids, all of which help to prevent hypertension, involuntary spasms, and blood pressure regulation. Niacin (B3) has been shown to help reduce cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL) levels. Since excessive cholesterol is one of the leading causes of cardiovascular disease, Ajwa could be an important regulating source. In addition, ajwa pulp therapy increased HDL-C levels and antioxidant enzyme activity. Another in-vivo investigation found that Ajwa preparation reduced diclofenac-induced pulmonary and hepatic disruptions. Salicylic acid, according to the research, is a vitamin-K antagonist with the ability to impede vitamin K's action along the coagulation pathway. Salicylic acid is found in dates at a concentration of 3.75 to 4.50 mg/100 g. As vitamin k has a vital role in coagulation too therefore salicylic acid exhibits anti- coagulant role too. The prominence of the given data is sufficient evidence that plants can be employed as a key source of medication development for cardiovascular disease. They have real momentum to handle the rising number of ailments, which cannot be squandered by diversion or apathy.

Man is a creature of God who has a component of heart, mind and body. From his heart was born 'azm (determination), from his mind was born knowledge and from his body was born action. [1]These three components are great potential that must be maintained and used properly and correctly. On the one hand, man is facilitated by being blown away by his spirit, given many privileges beyond any other makhluq. But on the other hand, he was burdened with worship, the necessity of doing truth and goodness, unlike other makhluq. Although he was given the freedom to choose for faith or kufr, he must be held accountable for all his deeds and be rewarded with heaven or hell. Therefore, humans have different roles and responsibilities than other creatures. This study uses a comparative method that compares and analyzes the thoughts of asy-Shaukany in the book of fathul qodir and the thoughst of Sayyid Qutb in the book of fi dzilal Al- Qur'an about humans in the perspective of the Qur'an. As for the discussion, researcher uses the approach of science interconnection and the technique of literature studies (library research), while the data analysis method used is content analysis. The uniqueness of man in the view of the Qur'an through the thought of the mufassir can be seen from several aspects. Among them are the terminology in the Qur'an, the process of its occurrence, the secret of its diversity, its role and responsibilities.

This study aims to identify and determine patterns of social interaction in improving children's emotional intelligence. As homosocious, humans cannot be separated from interaction activities. The diversity of each person in the surrounding environment gives rise to patterns of social interaction. This study uses a qualitative research method design with a case study approach with 4 sources through data collection techniques in the form of observation, interviews, and documentation. Researchers get the results that the pattern of social interaction that occurs at the TPA Masjid Al-Ikhlash Tempel Sleman is an associative type of social interaction pattern. The interactions built by students tend to stand out in the components of cooperation and accommodation which are characterized by mutual cooperation, helping, and being a mediator when other students fight. Meanwhile, this associative interaction pattern is categorized as quite capable in increasing the emotional intelligence of students. This is because some students have not been able to control their emotions well so that they cross the line, the majority of students have a sense of sensitivity to others both peers and across ages (empathy), and some students have high social skills and motivation so they tend to be less productive and effective in doing anything.

A macro anatomic study was undertaken to compare the forelimb bones of predominant Black Bengal Goat (BBG) and Indigenous Dog in Bangladesh by means of visual observation. Twelve matured (6 BBGs and 6 dogs) male animals were sacrificed ethically to prepare the skeleton without any destruction. The observation revealed that the scapular spine unequally divided the lateral surface in BBG whereas it divided the lateral surface into two equal halves in dog. The tuber scapulae of dog was blunt but slender in BBG. On the other hand coracoid process was absent in dog. Acromion process was short, blunt and extended up to the level of glenoid cavity but in case of BBG it does not reach to the glenoid cavity. The humerus of dog was comparatively longer, less twisted, round head and more convex. A large supratrochlear foramen at the distal end of the humerus was present in dog but absent in BBG. Radius and ulna appeared as two separate bones in dog but fused in BBG where the interosseous space was narrow and extended throughout the length of the bones of dog. There were seven bones in the carpus of dog; three at the proximal and four at the distal row but six bones in BBG; three in proximal and three in distal row. On the other hand five metacarpal bones in dog but one bone in BBG were found. Only two digit where two sesamoid bones for each proximal digit and one for distal digit in case of BBG but five digits where nine proximal (two for each developed digit and one for first) and five distal sesamoid bones were found in dog. In conclusion, the present study suggests that the anatomy of the forelimbs bones of BBG were differed from indigenous dog in various point of view.

The hygienic, sanitary and nutritional conditions of institutional canteens are keys to protecting health. Objective. Evaluate these conditions in canteens in the Metropolitan Area of Caracas between 2016-2017. Materials and methods. Through a descriptive research, 7 canteens from four municipalities were intentionally selected to evaluate their hygienic-sanitary conditions, potential risks in food preparation, menus, supervision and management, as well as health education. National comparison forms, Food Code, HACCP and estimation scale were used, with structured direct observation. Results. The results included five dining rooms in category I, one in category II and one in category III., reaffirming that the number of menus, the complexity of dishes and the large number of meals/users represent greater health risks, with critical violations allowed. A satisfactory average overall hygienic efficiency (88.02%) was recorded. The failures, listed in decreasing order were: protection in storage, buildings and facilities, equipment and utensils, personnel, sanitary services, general provisions and environmental sanitation. They did not apply HACCP; there are deficiencies in good preparation and handling practices according to the potential risks of meal preparation: temperature control, uniforms, hygienic habits, witness meals, corrective actions. Temperatures indicated hygienic control of food, with increased risk at rest and refrigeration steps; suitable in cooking. Menu management and food was very good, but health education classified from regular too bad. Conclusions. It is concluded that even in crisis the canteens have adequate management, complying with the legislation in terms of sanitary hygienic conditions, parameters and nutritional characteristics of the food.

The development of the robot world is very rapid, including the humanoid robot, bioloid, not least the type of mobile robot. Therobot is created to have advantages that are not owned by humans. One of them is unlimited compatibility. This requires that therobot has a variety of sensor components for the creation of intelligent autonomous behavior in robots. This research is titled "design of human followers trolley using object tracking (colour detection) method ". The goal is to facilitate the transfer of goodsfrom one place to another. This tool will detect the color of clothing from humans that will be followed by using the camera(webcam) as the sensor and the camera captured will be processed using C# by utilizing the open source library AForge.NET todetermine the point X and Y at the position of the object to be followed. This data will be processed again to determine some angleof the object that appears on the frame, then this data will be sent on the Arduino as a minimum system to translate data from C#so that both DC motors can run and the robot always follows the object based on the color. In the design of this tool generated aprototype trolley followers of humans with the camera, can already be used with a good camera readings and ultrasonic sensorreadings are perfect.
