Authors: Contreras R. Pilar , Nazar S. Rodolfo
Published: December 2023

Tonsillectomy is the most common surgical procedure in ENT surgery. Indications are well known in the field. Upper airway obstruction caused by tonsilar hyperplasia and recurrent bacterial infections are the most frecuent indications of tonsillectomy, however there are many other pathologies where tonsillectomy is considered part of the treatment. Non traditional indications, include IgA nephropathy, pediatric autoinmune neuropsychiatric disorders associated with Streptococcus, periodic fever with aphtous stomatitis, pharyngitis and adenitis, some dermatologic entities, among others. In this review we compile recent scientific evidence supporting the non tradicional indications of tonsillectomy, in order to allow an informed decision when prescribing this surgical procedure for the treatment of entities which are not of high prevalence in the daily practice. Evidence supports tonsillectomy as part of the treatment of some deseases, such as IgA nephropathy, however further evidence is required to support this treatment for the other pathologies.

Valorization of spent mushroom substrate (SMS) along with rice straw as feedstock for efficient bio gasification
Authors: N. Sharma  , Phutela U.G. , Khattra S.K. , I. Singh
Published: December 2023

Wastes generated after mushroom harvesting are known as spent mushroom substrate (SMS) which causes contamination of the environment. Anaerobic digestion is an economical and viable technology used for the management of several types of agricultural wastes, thus generating syngas that has many thermal applications. The current manuscript reports the potential of SMS for anaerobic digestion in five different combinations with rice straw, cattle dung, and bio-digested slurry. The kinetics of the biogasification process occurring in digesters was analyzed by modified Gompertz model. Results showed that maximum biogas (3,12,664 ml) was produced in digester C containing SMS, rice straw, cattle dung, and bio-digested slurry in the ratio of 8:2:1:1 as compared to control (48,968 ml) consisting of only SMS and water in the ratio of 8:2. Evaluation of feedstock for proximate and chemical composition recorded a notable reduction in total solids (TS), volatile solids (VS), cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin content as compared to control. On the other hand, ash content showed a significant increase after anaerobic digestion. Modified Gompertz equation revealed that maximum biogas production potential (P) of 6,150.50 mLg-1 VS with a biogas production rate (Rm) of 134 mLg-1d -1 and lag phase () of 12.80 days was observed in digester C as compared to the control digester A (P= 12.24 mLg-1 VS; Rm = 8.56 mLg-1d -1; =8.80 days). The study demonstrated that the codigesting SMS with rice straw can be successfully implicated for producing biogas as an energy source rather making dumped at the village site for causing pollution.

Published: December 2023

Field study on evaluation and comparison of different refugia-in-bag patterns (RIB) against bollworm complex with special reference to pink bollworm was conducted at RARS, Nandyal during 2021 and 2022. Among different RIB patterns evaluated pooled results of two years indicated no significant difference in green boll and locule damage due to pink bollworm among different refugia patterns. Highest yield of 1002 kg/ha was recorded in 20% structured refugia which is statistically at par with all other refugia patterns except in 100% non Bt which recorded lowest yield of 762 kg/ha. Based on foregoing results it clearly states that refugia is longer effective against pink bollworm population which had already developed resistance therefore further development of resistance can be managed in pink bollworm and can be effectively utilized for other bollworm in slowing down the building up of resistance in Bt cotton.

Published: December 2023

Finger millet (Eleusine coracana) is one of the rich sources of supplements contrasted with other minor developed cereal harvests. It contains dietary fiber (18%), calcium (344 mg/100g), tannins (0.04-3.47%), phytate (0.48%), oxalate (0.27%), cyanide (0.17%), saponins (0.36%), phenolics (0.3-3%) and polyphenols. It is likewise rich sources of amino acids (isoleucine, phenylalanine, leucine and methionine), minerals (calcium, phosphorous and iron) and nutrient including B (1.71 mg) and E (22 mg). Because of its high dietary nourishing substance, it can gives various sources as well as and restorative advantages like the expectation of diabetes (Type 2 diabetes mellitus), mitigating, against tumerogenic (K562 persistent myeloid leukemia), antiulcer, atherosclerogenic impacts, antimicrobial, hostile to diarrheal and cell reinforcement limit. Finger millet ought to be harvested as soon as conceivable to limit losses because of birds, and awful climate. Mature grain Finger millet in the field contains around 30% dampness. At moisture levels higher than 25%, the seeds are excessively delicate to endure the threshing activity. The seeds in the panicles of stopped plants sprout in the sodden field and accordingly influence grain yield and quality. The best stage to gather Finger millet is the point at which the plants arrive at the physiological development. Physiological development not entirely settled by the dark (dull) spot at the lower part of the grain. When the yield develops the leaves become yellow and present an evaporated appearance. The grains are hard and firm. The grain is isolated from the ear heads by utilizing a mechanical harvester or by drawing a stone roller over the ear-heads or stomping on under the feet of cattle. The isolated grain is then cleaned by winnowing and dried. Grain at or underneath 14% dampness is viewed as dry. For long haul stockpiling (over a half year), grain dampness content ought to be a limit of 13.5%. Generally Hagevu storage, mud container, bamboo container and metal receptacle are used for storing the finger millet grains.

Published: December 2023

Because of economical relevance of wheat being a staple crop, it is important to understand how this crop will respond to the foreseen increase in atmospheric CO2 conc. An experiment was conducted to know about the physiological and growth pattern of three genotypes PBW-373, PBW-343, PBW-502 of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under elevated CO2 condition. Two chambers one with increased CO2 and one with ambient CO2 were employed. Crop was cultivated within the chamber under ambient (400 ppm) and enhanced CO2 (800 ppm) conditions, from seedling to maturity. Compared to ambient CO2 , crop produced more biomass. The impact of EC on plant growth, reproductive structure, productivity and physiological parameters (photosynthetic rate, transpiration, stomatal conductance, morphology, leaf area and biomass) etc. were examined. The outcomes weren’t one way. For one plant growth cycle, all the parameters were recorded. Photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, stomatal conductance, and biomass all experienced significant increases among two genotypes out of three. Overall performance of PBW-343, PBW-373 was determined to be good in view of test weight under high CO2 conditions. Genotypic variation was also documented. Both genotypes are known to be tolerant of high CO2 conditions. Overall, it can be said that EC promotes plant growth and biomass, although further research is needed to determine how EC affects flowering. Increases in shoot length, root length, and the number of tillers in terms of their size and weight were caused by the high CO2 concentration. The economic yield of wheat per plant significantly increases when exposed to high CO2 . In this work, we investigated the impact of current and projected CO2 concentration on wheat crop growth, biomass, and yield.

Published: December 2023

In a variety of industries, including construction, automotive, marine, and aerospace, hybrid composite materials have great promise as engineering materials. By carefully choosing both the fibers and matrix employed, they enable designers to obtain desired qualities to a significant degree. The qualities of the material may be altered and adapted by adding various fiber types to a common resin matrix. In order to assess their potential for structural applications, the mechanical properties of a glass and carbon fiber epoxy composite reinforced with silica nanoparticles were examined and compared to those of clean epoxy. The samples were created using the vacuum bag process and heat-cured regardless of the laminated material. To guarantee accurate and trustworthy findings, mechanical characteristics including E1, E2, G12, and v12 were assessed using the tensile test and the relevant ASTM standards. To evaluate substantial variations in the mechanical characteristics of the glassy epoxy and carbon epoxy composites, experimental and numerical modeling will be used. The findings of this study suggest that silica nanoparticles improve the mechanical properties of composite materials. As a result, performance and strength are enhanced when using these reinforced epoxy compounds in structural applications.

Published: December 2023

In this study, the drying kinetics of sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L. 'Tres Cantos') and yellow onion (Allium cepa L. 'Yellow Granex F1') was experimentally investigated in a lab-scale tunnel dryer. The drying experiments were performed at three air temperatures (50, 60, and 70 °C) and three air velocities (1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 m/s). A volumetric shrinkage linear model from the literature was used to include the shrinkage effect on the drying process. From the drying curves, no constant rate period was observed. The drying process took place in a falling rate period. It was found that the changes in air velocity had essentially no effect on the drying process. In addition, a non-linear regression analysis was employed to determine the characteristic drying curve.

Strategic management of smart specialization in regional economic development: connection of export, sectoral, scientific, and technological competences
Authors: Lyshchikova Julia , Stryabkova Elena , Vladyka Marina , Kulik Anna , Bondareva Yana
Published: December 2023

The article proposes a methodological approach to determining the priorities of smart specialization based on the conjugation of industry-specific specialization at the global, national, and macroregional levels and the scientific and technological competences of the region in the context of geographical, structural, technological, and cognitive proximity. As exemplified by the Central Black Earth macroregion, the study establishes a managerial matrix and scenario models based on competences. As a result of testing the research tools, a unified template of the managerial matrix for conjugating the directions of export (national, macroregional) and scientific and technological specialization of the macroregion was developed and scenario models for determining the priorities of smart specialization of regions within the Central Black Earth macroregion were built as part of entrepreneurial search procedures with the participation of all parties involved (regional authorities, business community, scientific community, and local residents). The proposed approach will allow all regions, including those not widely included in the global or national division of labor, to find a promising niche for development at the macroregional (local) level. In addition, it considers the possibilities of intersectoral convergence and the use of the accumulated competences of these regions in the field of end-to-end digital technologies.
FEMICIDIO Y FEMINICIDIO EN HONDURAS
Authors: Flores Rodríguez Enrique
Published: December 2023

La dogmática jurídico-penal se encuentra en constante evolución y no puede ser indiferente al principio de progresividad, sin embargo, todavía algunos conceptos pueden generar conflictos hermenéuticos o interpretativos, sobre todo aquellos que surgen desde la reivindicación social. La incorporación de la perspectiva de género al principio de legalidad en Honduras, puede significar un paso importante para juzgar y litigar con enfoque de derechos humanos, pero sin el uso de herramientas como la interseccionalidad, los sesgos y estereotipos fuertemente arraigados en la cultura jurídica pueden generar algún tipo de violencia estructural. En el presente ensayo se busca diferenciar y aclarar dos conceptos interdependientes pero a su vez autónomos, que permiten visibilizar uno la problemática jurídico-social y otro contrastar los elementos objetivos de la máxima manifestación de la violencia basada en género constituida para su mitigación como tipo penal.
VOCES EN TORNO A LA CONVIVENCIA ESCOLAR. EL QUEHACER DE LA EDUCACIÓN EN LA CONSTRUCCIÓN DE ESPACIOS PACÍFICOS Y ARMÓNICOS
Authors: Morales Carrero Jesús Alfredo
Published: December 2023

La convivencia escolar como proceso asociado con la educación cívica y en valores, plantea el establecimiento de vínculos humanos sólidos, en los que cada individuo asumiéndose responsable y consciente de su proceder procure modelar su comportamiento en función de reconocer la valía de sus pares, el resguardo de su integridad, la protección de la dignidad y el respeto por los derechos que le asisten al Otro, como principios que por sus implicaciones se entienden como mediadores de la coexistencia. El propósito de esta investigación se enfocó en determinar las aportaciones teóricas y prácticas que desde el plano educativo diversos autores asumen como requerimientos para construir un acercamiento conceptual a la idea de convivencia escolar, así como los fundamentos axiológicos, institucionales e inclusivos para la edificación de espacios armónicos y pacíficos que redunden en la actuación funcional de los miembros del acto educativo. La puesta en discusión de estas aportaciones teóricas y prácticas permite determinar, que la convivencia escolar demanda involucrar valores democráticos que además de apuntalar la aceptación del pluralismo, posibiliten la cohesión en la diversidad, es decir, el establecimiento de puentes de entendimiento y reconciliación que refuercen la cohabitación tanto justa como con apego al bien común. Se concluye, que la vida escolar por su dinamismo y conflictividad, requiere la reivindicación de la solidaridad, la libertad positiva y la paz, como valores universales que, aunado a revitalizar el sentido de ciudadanía, sume a la praxis de la justicia social como modo de vida.
Der Hexenprozess gegen Ursula Lombarda aus dem Fassatal (1573)
Authors: Rabanser Hansjörg
Published: December 2023

Three large series of witch trials took place in the Fassa Valley/Val di Fassa in 1573, 1627–1631 and 1642–1646. The sources documenting the first of these trials and its main protagonist Ursula Lombarda were discovered in 1910 by Hartmann Ammann in the diocesan archives of Bressanone/Brixen. They were presented to the general public in 1950, after Ammann’s death. Owing to a new analysis of the documents and newly discovered sources, this article reviews the proceedings of the 1573 witch trial and reveals aspects hitherto unnoticed. The focus is not only on Lombarda, her confessions and acts of denunciation, but also on witness statements as well as petitions and certificates relating to conduct and behavior that were written by family members and Lombarda’s friends. While Ursula Lombarda was executed as a witch, most of the other prisoners were released. The concluding chapter presents various versions of the legends surrounding the witch Lombarda. According to most tales the events took place in the Tierser Valley. However, only some of the information and images presented are in line with historical facts.
Oswald von Wolkenstein e la Ladinia: alcune considerazioni
Authors: Capelli Dario
Published: December 2023

The present study intends to examine the different demonstrations of the relationship between Ladinia and Oswald von Wolkenstein, a South Tyrolean author born at the turn of 1376 who died in 1445. Despite of a life characterized by long periods spent far away, Oswald remained very attached to his homeland, as can be seen both in his literary work and in the extensive documentation that has been preserved. His affinity for the Ladin territories is reflected in special ways with regard to two main aspects: on the one hand, traces of the Ladin language of Val Gardena can be found in Oswald’s literary production, and on the other hand it shows by the way Oswald was received in the Ladin area from the 19th century onwards. With regard to the first aspect, Oswald includes semi-verses and/or specific terms in a language he called Welsch in two plurilingual Lieder, meant as a sophisticated divertissement and evidence of his mastery. A study published by Heinrich Kuen in this journal in 1979 which still is of major relevance today, identified this idiom with the Gardena variant of Ladin. Oswald probably acquired it during his childhood and recognized it as his second mother tongue together with German in the first of the two above-mentioned plurilingual Lieder. From a philological and linguistic point of view the Ladin element in Oswald’s literary work is without equal and of utmost importance because it anticipates by almost a century the first text partially written in a neo-Latin language in the South Tyrolean area. It also anticipates by three centuries both the creation of a Ladin identity and the very first Ladin literary texts that were also written in the Gardena variant. As far as literary reception of Oswald in Ladinia is concerned, notwithstanding numerous revivals of the legend of Oswald as a politician and as a literary author, there has been relatively little interest in the academic community. By comparing the studies of Hans-Dieter Mück and Roland Verra, the second part of this paper first reconstructs a plausible origin of Oswald’s legend from the Dolomites “Man di Ferro” (literally “Iron Hand”), and then examines the literary, translational, musical and artistic tributes paid to Oswald, including personalities that have been central to Ladin culture such as Frida and Luis Piazza. In conclusion, a strong and lasting connection between Oswald von Wolkenstein and Ladinia is revealed, reinforced on an institutional level. In the future one could focus on consolidating ties with the German-speaking and Italian-speaking communities in South Tyrol as well as with the rest of Italy and Europe that all proved vital to the background of Oswald’s life and work.
Zur Herkunft des gadertalisch-ennebergischen Movierungssuffixes -ia
Authors: Rainer Franz
Published: December 2023

The Ladin language of Marebbe and Badia Valley is characterised by the feminizing suffix -ia, which denotes feminine gender in adjectives or denotes females in nouns, and is foreign to all other Ladin idioms. This article argues that not all words containing this suffix can be grouped together. While, for exam-ple, superbia “a girl obsessed with dressing up” is a conversion of a feminine adjective, doturia “female doctor or the doctor’s wife” was presumably formed in analogy to the Venetian term capitania “wife of the provincial governor”. Both examples are borrowed from Veneto.

Puberty, governed by the endocrine system, marks the onset of reproductive functions in animals and humans through a series of physiological and biological transformations. Although the mycotoxin DON can disrupt hormonal balance and cause reproductive abnormalities, its impact on puberty-associated reproductive changes remains understudied. Considering the increased exposure of children and adolescents to DON, our study aimed to elucidate its influence on follicular integrity and the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins (BAX and Caspase-3) and anti-apoptotic protein (BCL-2) in juvenile rat ovarian tissue. We divided ten 28-day-old prepubertal Wistar rats into two dietary groups for 28 days: a control group with a mycotoxin-free diet and a DON group with a diet containing 10 mg DON/Kg. After the experiment, ovaries and uterus weights were recorded, and the ovaries underwent morphometric and immunohistochemical analysis. DON exposure led to significant reductions in both ovarian and uterine weights. Although DON intake did not change the number of ovarian follicles across developmental stages, we observed an increased expression of BAX and Caspase-3 and a decreased BCL-2 expression in most follicular stages and corpora lutea. In summary, DON exposure during puberty can interfere with apoptotic processes in diverse ovarian cell populations during early adulthood.

In order to plan the fight against bovine brucellosis in the state of Alagoas, Brazil, a cross-sectional study was carried out between April and October 2018 to estimate the prevalence of infected herds and animals, as well as the risk factors associated with the disease. Through a two-stage sampling design, blood samples were collected from 3,046 bovine females aged ≥ 24 months from 634 herds, in two different regions of the state. A questionnaire was applied at each farm to assess the association of possible risk factors with the disease. All selected animals were screened by the Rose Bengal test followed by retesting of positives by the Complement Fixation test. For the state, the prevalence of infected herds was estimated at 3.2% [2.1; 4.9] and that of seropositive animals at 0.9% [0.5; 1.4], with no statistical difference between regions. The risk factors identified were pasture rent (OR = 3.11 [1.28; 7.37]) and herd size equal to or greater than 14 females aged ≥ 24 months (OR=4.91 [2.02; 11.66]). It was recommended that the state of Alagoas develop health education action with the beef and dairy cattle production chains, so that producers avoid renting pastures or start practicing it with sanitary care for brucellosis and that they also observe these same concerns when introducing animals in their herds. In addition, the state should consider the convenience of structuring a surveillance system aiming at the eradication of bovine brucellosis, given the low prevalence of infected herds and seropositve animals.

This research aims to determine the effect of giving Biohayati fertilizer, giving Rhizobium bacteria and also the interaction of giving Biohayati fertilizer on soybean production. This research was carried out in Laut Tador Village, Batu Bara Regency, North Sumatra Province. At an altitude of ± 12 meters above sea level with flat topography. This research used a factorial RAK (randomized group design) with 2 treatment factors. The first factor is the provision of Bio-Biological Fertilizer, which consists of four levels, namely: B0 = No treatment, B1 = Bio-biotic solution with a dose of 18 ml/liter of water, B2 = Bio-biological solution with a dose of 20 ml/liter of water, B3 = Bio-biological solution with a dose of 22 ml/liter of water. The second factor is that the administration of Rhizobium bacteria is carried out at three levels, namely: R0 = no treatment, R1 = Rhizobium at a dose of 1.6 kg/plot (seeds mixed with Rhizobium solution), R2 = Rhizobium at a dose of 1.8 kg/plot (Rhizobium is watered in land). The results of the research show that the effect of providing Biohayati has a significant effect on soybean plant production, namely the number of pods and filled pods. The effect of giving Rhizobium bacteria has a significant effect on soybean plant production, namely the number of pods and filled pods. The interaction effect of giving Biohayati and Rhizobium bacteria on soybean production did not have a significant effect. Providing a biological solution at a dose of 22 ml/liter of water and Rhizobium at a dose of 1.6 kg/production plot to soybean plants is the best dose.
