Introduction. It is noted that extrusion is the main procurement process in the aluminum alloys forming operations. At the same time, the process has such a disadvantage as the nonstationarity of the metal plastic flow. The work aim is to establish the inhomogeneity deformation level of the pressed rod front part by numerical simulation using the finite element method. The study objectives are to formulate the extrusion process boundary conditions, to obtain a solution and to evaluate the inhomogeneity degree. Research methods: the finite element method was used to evaluate the deformed state. The actions sequence included the creation of primary deformation zone shape and the tool configuration. The mutual movement of the tool and the deformable material is set using the appropriate boundary conditions. The deformable medium is a ductile material with power-law hardening, the physical and mechanical properties correspond to the aluminum alloy of the 6000 series. Results and discussion: It is revealed that the strain degree in the pressed rod front part is extremely nonuniform distributed; differences above 300% are recorded. The strain degree distribution dependences in the rod cross sections are constructed depending on the distance from the front end at different relative radial coordinates. It is revealed that the rod central layers acquire a constant level of the strain degree earlier than the peripheral layers. The stationary process is achieved with less metal motion. The work result application scope is the technological study of rational metal cutting of aluminum alloys at the extrusion final stage in order to use recyclable waste more rationally. Conclusions. In the extrusion process with a low elongation ratio, the strain degree is distributed nonuniform both along the press rod cross and along its length. The rod front part remains weakly deformed both at the periphery and in the center in the nonstationary initial extrusion stage. It often forces to send for remelting due to the insufficiently developed metal structure. At the same time, if the limits on the minimum possible degree of deformation are set, then using the results of the calculation by the finite element method, the minimum length of the metal to be removed can be set, thereby reducing the mass of waste sent for remelting.

Introduction: Neck pain (NP) may have a local mechanical (non-specific) origin caused by dysfunction of the joint, muscle, and ligament structures in the neck or by a discogenic etiology. Most people (50–60%) suffer from NP at some point in their lives. They are more common in highly developed countries and in urban areas. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of NP and its impact on daily living activities in the student population.
Methods: The study included students of the University of Sarajevo - Faculty of Health Studies in the period from May 2021 to June 2021. The sample of respondents was formed by the method of random selection and included respondents of both sexes, aged 19–28 years. The study was conducted as a transversal cross-sectional study at a specific time point on the frequency of NP and the ability to perform activities of daily living in the student population.
Results: Out of the total number of 255 respondents, 77 (30.2%) reported that they have NP while 178 (69.8%) respondents reported that they do not feel NP and it was found that there was no statistically significant difference between the age groups of the subjects with and without NP. The study concluded that a higher percentage of respondents with NP did not engage in leisure activities and that respondents with NP had lower mobility in daily life, sleep disturbance, and poorer ability to perform activities of daily living due to NP.
Conclusion: The study conducted revealed that a significant percentage of the student population with NP has a lower ability to perform activities of daily living. Considering the above facts and the current transformation of the educational model, in which static postures dominate, it is necessary to design and implement programs for targeted physical activity and prevention of long-term inactivity that leads to painful musculoskeletal syndromes.

Published: June 2022

Objective: to assess the current state of the veterinary medical product market in the Tyumen Region.

Material and methods. The objects of the study included data from the State Register of Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use for 2019–2022; veterinary pharmacy organizations and veterinary clinics in the Tyumen Region (33); price lists of veterinary pharmaceutical organizations; questionnaires of veterinary specialists (69) and consumers of medicinal products for veterinary use (93).

Results. An analysis of the Register of Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use registered in the Russian Federation revealed a positive trend in the registration of new positions: with 2190 registered drugs about 300 more positions are registered annually. It was determined that the ratio of veterinary drugs of various pharmacotherapeutic groups is critically uneven (31.05% – antibacterial agents; 28% – immunobiological drugs; 0.46% – cardiovascular drugs; 0.14% – antitumor drugs). The study of the wholesale segment of the veterinary drugs market on the territory of the Tyumen Region showed that the range of wholesale trade organizations in veterinary drugs mainly consists of products for animals (at the largest one veterinary drugs account for only 16%). As a result, low indicators of the assortment are observed (breadth and completeness coefficients for pharmacotherapeutic groups), and there are problems with the availability of veterinary drugs. The analysis of the assortment of veterinary pharmaceutical organizations and clinics (retail segment of the market) revealed low breadth coefficients for medicinal products for veterinary use (median 0.09). A sociological survey showed a low level of awareness of all veterinary drugs consumer groups about the scope of their circulation.

Conclusion. The study of the current state of the veterinary medicinal product market in the Tyumen Region identified the problems of their availability both in the wholesale and retail segments, which need to be addressed with the help of state regulation (including the introduction of a minimum range of drugs for veterinary use) and normalization of the assortment policy at the level of veterinary pharmacies and clinics. Because of the lack of registration for some drugs necessary for the treatment of animals, veterinarians are forced to put into practice drugs for medical use, deliberately violating the law. Given the experience of many foreign countries, we consider it expedient to allow the use (in special cases) of medical drugs in veterinary medicine. This will solve the problem of pharmacotherapy availability and allow veterinarians to provide better care to animals.

Authors: KORKMAZ Huriye Yasemin , ER Mehmet Kubilay
Published: June 2022

This study was carried out to determine the post-treatment efficacy of three local Beauveria bassiana isolates by applying them against adults of three common stored-product pests, Sitophilus oryzae L. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Rhyzopertha dominica F. (Col.: Bostrichidae) and Oryzaephilus surinamensis L. (Col.: Silvanidae).
For the biological tests, wheat grains were mixed with fungal spores at 1000 ppm (w/w) concentration then 20 adults were released 1, 15 and 28 days after the treatments. For the tests carried out with S. oryzae; the mortality rate was initially 33.3-41.6% and 68.3-76.6%; and declined to 6.6-18.3% and 13.3-21.6% on the 7th and 14th day, respectively, when released 28 days later. The initial mortality of R. dominica was 46.6-50.0 % and 93.3-95%; and became 10-18.3% and 16.6-28.3% when released 28 days later. Oryzaephilus surinamensis mortality on the 7th and 14th day was initially 41.6-46.6% and 70.0-85.0%, and decreased to 8.3-15% and 13.3-20.0%, respectively, when released 28 days later. Mortality rates at the end of each incubation period, for all testing isolates and insect species, were significantly reduced when waiting time of spores on wheat was prolonged. For all incubation periods, similar mortality rates were obtained from all isolates and similar efficiacy loss was observed. All the results together indicate that the responsible factors for time-dependent loss of activity in B. bassiana isolates should be determined, and in line with these data, precautions need to be taken.

Authors: Souza Sergio , Barboza Thiago , Gutfilen Bianca , Monteiro Robson
Published: June 2022

Ixolaris is a tick salivary protein that binds to Factor Xa or Factor X as a scaffold for inhibition of the Tissue Factor (TF)/Factor VIIa (FVIIa). TF is not normally expressed in cells that are in direct contact with blood. However, TF is abnormally expressed under several pathological conditions, including inflammation, infectious diseases and cancer. It is known for decades that TF is a risk factor for metastasis, and in mouse models, TF drives metastasis in a coagulation-dependent manner. For these reasons, TF has recently been described as a potential target that can be exploited to image aggressive tumors. Ixolaris has been succcesfully used to treat some pre-clinical cancer models. It also has been shown its’ radiolabeling for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The aim of this article is to show that Ixolaris could be an interesting tool to diagnose cancer, and also treat it in a near future. Some key findings presented here are that TF has recently been described as a potential target that can be exploited to image aggressive tumors, once it is often associated with migration, invasion, proliferation, metastasis, the inhibition of apoptosis and the production of several pro-aggressive factors.
Persistent Pulmonary hypertension of the Newborn: Role of Platelet Activating Factor. A Mini Review
Authors: Ibe Basil , Hanouni Mona , Raj J , Popoli James , Popoli Steven
Published: June 2022

The fetus is exposed to chronic low oxygen environment, which is a desirable physiological condition for fetal pulmonary development and hemodynamics. On the other hand, if the newborn is exposed to low oxygen levels, the blood vessels of the lung thicken and narrow due to overgrowth of the smooth muscle cells in the vessel walls, the baby remains blue, resulting in the condition known as persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN). In the United States, PPHN occurs in 0.43-6.8 newborns per 1000 live births and is most common in term and near-term newborns. Despite the significant advances in management of newborn respiratory diseases, PPHN is still associated with a high morbidity and mortality, accounting for about 10-20% of neonatal mortality. The current mainstay of therapy for PPHN is mechanical ventilation, fluid therapy and use of anti-inflammatory agents for cardiovascular support. Correction of hemodynamic acid/base balance and oxygen supplementation are also commendable therapeutic interventions. New ideas in PPHN therapy should include incorporation of in vivo, ex vivo and in vitro studies on intracellular signaling pathways of pulmonary vascular development in the state of PPHN. These new ideas will entail studies of the cross talk between vasodilators and vasoconstrictors in perinatal pulmonary hemodynamics.

Published: June 2022

Castleman’s disease is a benign lymphoproliferative disorder affecting both lymph nodes and extranodal loci. Castleman’s disease can occur in practically any part of the body, but it occurs mainly in the thorax (~70%) followed by the abdomen and pelvis, neck and axilla. Clinically, Castleman’s disease can be classified into a unicentric or multicentric form, depending on the number of lymph nodes involved, and histologically into a hyaline vascular variant, plasma cell, mixed cellular or plasmablastic variant. In this mini-review we briefly report and focus on all clinical thoracic manifestations of Castleman’s disease resuming for each of them the possible strategy of treatment.

Quarantine in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania: the Voivodeship of Prince Vasily Borisovich Sheremetev During the Plague of 1657
Authors: Gerasimova Irina
Published: June 2022

The article reconstructs the activities of one of the closest boyars of the Russian Tsar Alexey Mikhailovich — Prince Vasily Borisovich Sheremetev on the Belarusian-Ukrainian lands during the war between Russia and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (1654—1667) during 1657. During this short period of time, he received four appointments from the Tsar as voivode of the cities of Smolensk, Vilna, Borisov and Shklov. At the same time, he could only get to the first city and immediately received a new order to be appointed voivode in Vilna. The paper considers the reasons for changing the Royal decree and the urgent need for the Prince to come to Vilna as a voivode, which was not previously discussed in the scientific literature. On the way to the capital, V. B. Sheremetev received information about the outbreak of the plague there. The news of this caught him not far from Borisov, in connection with which he was forced to be appointed voivode of Borisov together with the former voivode there I. A. Rzhevsky. In Borisov V. B. Sheremetev became a link between the Russian voivodeships in the territories of the Lithuanian Duchy, partially infected with the pestilence, and the Discharge order. He was responsible for all correspondence between the voivodes and the Tsar. Letters were repeatedly rewritten at the Borisov outposts, read by the Prince and retold in his replies to the tsar. Lists were copied in Borisov from the voivodeships of Kovna, Minsk and Grodno too. In addition, V.B. Sheremetyev established checkpoints for people-outposts, observed quarantine measures established in letters by the Russian Tsar, detained embassies and messengers to the Tsar from European countries to prevent the spread of a deadly disease. In his replies, he reported that he had to deal with the problems of the local population, which was being ravaged by the frequent raids of Cossacks due to the epidemic, to billet and provide for the regiments of the Russian army that came to Borisov, to supervise the issue of the oath of Lithuanian hetmans and their troops. In September, the Tsar decided to dismiss the army and appoint the Prince as voivode in another city of the Lithuanian Principality — Shklov, due to the outbreak of a pestilence in the Borisov district.

Punishing Environmental Offenses Without Guilty Mind: Regulatory Framework and Judicial Responses
Authors: Ali Mahrus , Setiawan Muhammad Arif , Sanjaya Wawan
Published: June 2022

This paper explores the legal considerations and the scope of application of criminal liability without guilty mind in environmental offenses in Indonesia. Under the existing Environmental Law, liability without fault has been applicable exclusively in civil cases. This paper combines literature and induction research methods. The first method dives into the legal provision in Environmental Law containing the formulation of the offenses, while the induction method refers to the analysis on judicial decisions in the application of liability without fault. The findings of the study show that most of the prohibited offenses in environmental legislation deal with the malum prohibitum crime tied to the violation of a permit. The mental element is not explicitly stated in these offenses. Hence, the culpability of the defendant is presumed to be displayed in the evidence of the prohibited conduct. Waste or emissions discharged into the environmental media without authorisation is prohibited and pertaining the potential to harm the environment. These offenses are included as formal offenses by removing the element of culpability in the structure of the offense. It is also sufficient for the court to rule that the defendants have committed the prohibited conduct as the basis for imposing criminal sanction.

Tourism is currently considered one of the most important economic sectors that directly or indirectly affect societies and have a positive role in achieving spatial development, whether on (the country, regions, or cities) and its sustainability, and one of the modern trends in the field of achieving sustainability is adopting Elements of (intelligence) in development activities, the most important of which is smart tourism, which has the potential to make a qualitative and quantitative transition in the life of the local community in various aspects (economic, social, environmental, and environmental urban) if smart variables (smart governance - sustainability - technology - innovation - accessibility and smart mobility - communication and information technologies - social capital - cultural heritage - creativity) are taken more seriously in applying them to the reality of the situation in planning, implementation and management, allowing the investment of strengths and positive disks to overcome risks, challenges and weaknesses. This study was distinguished from the previous studies on the topics of smart tourism in that it relied on all indicators that contribute to the development of smart tourism in the field of sustainable spatial development by relying on the development potential of the regions, which greatly encourages the introduction of smart technology mainly in development. As is the case in the province (Karbala) in Iraq, which was chosen as a study area because of its great tourism development potential to find the available and latent opportunities in the transition to smart tourism, as well as to assess its role in sustainable development. The study reached important results through the use of statistical methods, including SPSS, represented in the presence of a strong correlation between smart tourism indicators and sustainable spatial development. Tourism supply and demand directly interact intimately, whose results are reflected on the entire Karbala region in the short and long term.

Published: June 2022

The palm oil industry operational causes several debate, especially in environmental and social problems. Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) is presented as the institution that oversees sustainable development through the sustainable certification issued. The motivation of the adoption recently from the public pressure for palm oil companies to adopted this certification. However, this pressure is only the external factor to driven the sustainable development in palm oil companies. The internal factor from palm oil industry have not observed as the adoption of sustainable certification. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the factors that affected the adoption of sustainable certification in oil palm companies by using binary logistic regression. We examined 14 financial reports of the Indonesia palm oil companies that go-public from 2014 until 2019. The results show that Return on Assets (ROA), Current Ratio, Firm Size, and Oil Extraction Rate (OER) not affect the adoption of RSPO. However, the Return on Equity (ROE), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Export significantly influence the RSPO adoption by Indonesian palm oil companies. The internal factor, specifically in financial aspects be the main driver for adopting the sustainable certification. Therefore, the promotion of sustainable certification must lead on the growth of finance performance to maintain this adoption. The limitation of this research is only focused to listed palm oil companies in Indonesia.

Published: June 2022

The determination of the cost of production is a necessity for every entrepreneur to establish the cost of the goods sold. The methods commonly used are the Cost Structure method, the Activity-Based Costing method, and the Volume Cost Profit method. The solution proposed in this article is a cost-driven method which is considered simpler in determining the optimal selling price for the tofu agroindustry on a household scale. This study aims to analyze the correlational relationship between raw material costs, firewood costs and labor wages with production, and to find a cost-driven formulation by modifying the Volume Cost Profit method. The research was conducted in the tofu agro-industry center in Kekalik Jaya Village, Sekarbela District and in Abianbadan Baru Village, Sandubaya District with the number of respondents 40 units of tofu agro-industry selected by the accidental proportional sampling method consisting of 27 agro-industry units in Kekalik Jaya sub-district and 13 agro-industry units in Abianbadan Baru village. Collecting data using triangulation methods, namely the method of sending questionnaires to respondents, survey methods with direct interviews with tofu agro-industry business actors, and observation methods at the production process site. The results showed that there was a positive correlation between the cost of raw material for soybean seeds and production and was the largest component of production costs so that it could be used as a cost determinant in the processing of soybeans into tofu, the cost driven method could be used as strategic planning in determining the selling price.

Online teaching activities based on increasingly used computer-based educational systems lacks standard rules for its implementation. This paper describes the design of online training activities using Moodle as a Learning Management System (LMS) and, evaluate short-term and long-term students’ learning outcomes applying data mining techniques. Clustering and classification algorithms are combined to uncover valuable, non-obvious students’ patterns from a well-defined collection of data. Data results from online quiz-based activities in a subject of Computer Science show that students who are not engaged in the training activity during the short-term learning process fail. Data analysis also shows that the number of trials is a key attribute. Hence, it is important to develop user-friendly online activities with real-time feedback based on student behaviour. Moreover, according to our experiment, online training activities decrease in efficiency over time.

Disproportions in the Description Ability of Prediction Models for Change in the Accounting System
Authors: Lukáč Jozef
Published: June 2022

The change in the value of financial indicators can be triggered by several factors. A result of a change in the accounting system shows that the company’s achieved financial indicators may change. The reason for the differences is a different way of reporting and recalculation of items in the financial statements, where some items are recognized and classified in a different group of assets than under the accounting regulations in the Slovak Republic. The Balance Analysis of Rudolf Douch (1996), Taffler's model (1984) and Králiček's Quick Test (1993) were used to point out the differences in evaluation based on financial indicators in selected prediction models. The aim of the paper is to analyze the changes that result in the change of the accounting system from national accounting legislation to the accounting system according to IAS/IFRS. We assume that individual items of assets and liabilities or costs and revenues that enter into the calculation of individual prediction models achieved different values due to changes in the method of reporting in the financial statements of the analyzed company for the same accounting period in two accounting systems.

Nutritional and antinutritional properties of novel milk beverages produced from African breadfruit, tigernut, coconut and date fruit were studied in this research. The plant milk beverages were formulated from these plants and compared with the quality characteristics of conventional plant milk beverage “Vita milk” which served as the control sample. Mineral and phytochemical properties were determined for the raw plant samples and beverage products. The mineral composition analysis showed that the values for the contents of calcium, magnesium, sodium, and iron (8.25, 1.42, 9.50 and 0.33) percent from the control sample were higher than the average values recorded for the same mineral content from the formulated beverage samples (3.70, 0.63, 4.94 and 0.06)percent, while the average values for the contents of potassium and phosphorous (2.72 and 5.77) from the formulated beverage samples were higher than the values from the control sample (0.33 and 0.46)percent. Out of ten phytochemicals screened in the beverage samples viz; flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannins, phenols, oxalate, glycosides, carotenoids, terpenoids and steroids, seven were present in the formulated beverage samples (flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannins, phenols, oxalate and glycosides), while four were present in the control sample (flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins and tannins). The study revealed that plant milk formulated from breadfruit milk, tiger nut milk, coconut milk and date fruit juice gave products that are comparable to the conventional soy bean based vita milk in terms of their nutritional composition.

Published: June 2022

A etnomatemática é uma tendência no campo das ciências exatas que de certa forma humaniza a matemática, deixando-a mais acessível e compreensível dentro do campo cultural, pois não faz sentido segregar a matemática da cultura pré-estabelecida de outros povos, que trazem em sua bagagem de conhecimento uma estrutura não formal, mas rica de saber. Este trabalho foi realizado através de inspirações teóricas decorrentes de leituras e reflexões sobre educação matemática, pois ele consiste em uma pesquisa bibliográfica. O objetivo deste artigo é exatamente apresentar a etnomatemática como um programa que desenvolverá o aprendizado matemático de uma forma que alcance competências necessárias a cada grupo cultural. E assim mostrar que é necessário lembrar de como tudo começou pois todos trazem consigo uma herança cultural que não pode simplesmente ser esquecida ou deixada de lado, como se não tivesse a menor importância.
