A small number of cases may reflect the true rarity of the lesion or may be due to its undetected nature and / or underreporting. On the one hand, this will allow for a competent verification of the diagnosis. On the other hand, it will lead to the fact that the fact of malignant proliferation will not be missed, which significantly changes the tactics of a maxillofacial surgeon or dentist.
A 60-year-old woman came to the maxillofacial surgery department of the Yerevan Medical Center, complaining of facial asymmetry, swelling of the right half of the upper jaw, the presence of a tumor, and a feeling of heaviness. For the purpose of final diagnosis and treatment, an operation was performed: removal of the neoplasm, extensive biopsy. Pathohistological diagnosis: hamartoma of the infraorbital region. The postoperative period was calm and without complications.
Based on the results of the operation, it can be concluded that the surgical method used is low-traumatic for such a diagnosis, provides a sufficient surgical field of vision, increases the possibility of radical tumor removal, and reduces trauma around important anatomical structures

Connection of women's fashion designs and architectural constructions
Authors: Jankoska Maja , Stevkovska-Stojanovska Ruzica
Published: September 2024

Ideas of societal, cultural, and personal identity have long been expressed through the fields of architecture and fashion design. But in the last year, practitioners in both fields have expressed more nuanced and thought-provoking challenges related to ideas of identity, going beyond the idea of just denoting value, status, and belonging. The aim of this paper is to present the relation between architecture creations and fashion design, creating women's dresses inspired by Gothic architecture. Initially, technical sketches of the model are performed. The basic constructions of women's dress and tight sleeves are used as a starting point for designing. Later, with modeling, the desired type of model is performed. The ornaments from Gothic architecture are used for printing on fabric, and then these elements are sewn on the clothing. In the end, the combination of high fashion and architecture is proof of the inspiration and correlation between both disciplines and the long-lasting value of artistic expression.

Published: September 2024

The sacred land Anatolia, the cradle of many civilizations, covers many crafting traditions as clothing, kitchen tools, dowry items, carpets, rugs, socks, booties, jewellery works, pottery, or wooden products. These products, which people use daily from past to present, reflect the experience and knowledge accumulated over a long period of time, and carry historical values within themselves, ensuring cultural continuity. In this sense, it can be said that handicrafts are a part of life with their production and have a great value in terms of cultural history. Ethnography with a deeper understanding of culture, accept hand-knitted items not as mere garments worn on the body, but as nonverbal communication tools conveying the region, social life, feelings, and thoughts of the knitter through the colours, compositions and motifs. This paper aims at supporting the strong relationship between craft and ethnographic research by documenting it with the use of both traditional examples of handknitted socks and the identification of their common elements. Motifs used in traditional textiles play an important role in reflecting Turkish culture and identity and transferring it from generation to generation. In this context, 22 socks knitted in Ağrı were examined and the motifs used on the socks were determined. The motifs of hand-knitted socks, which are generally knitted for daily use and dowry, are stripes, diagonal stripes, cleats and hooks; It was concluded that black and white were preferred as colours. Nowadays, with the development of technology, the motifs in the products traditionally made in the regions have become more important, especially for use in culturally based textile products. For this reason, it is important to document and introduce the motifs that reflect our cultural identity to future generations.
The ethnographic research for cultural sustainable design
Authors: Gurcum Banu
Published: September 2024

The contribution of the designers using ethnographic research in any phase of implementation of design seems to have rooted in the deep understanding of 3Cs of design: concepts, contends, and contexts. Using ethnographic research, designers meticulously document the cultural practices, traditions, and daily routines of the communities they study. This detailed record helps create a comprehensive archive of cultural elements that can be referenced and preserved for future generations. Culturally significant design can profoundly impact sustainability by fostering environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and economic resilience. By utilizing traditional materials and techniques, these designs often employ sustainable practices that have been refined over centuries, such as organic farming methods for natural dyes or hand-weaving techniques that minimize energy consumption. Culturally significant design supports local artisans and communities, promoting fair trade and economic equity, which in turn helps preserve cultural heritage and craft traditions. Moreover, these designs emphasize durability and timelessness over disposable fashion trends, encouraging consumers to invest in high-quality, meaningful items that reduce waste. This approach not only honours cultural heritage but also aligns with sustainable development goals, creating a holistic model that benefits both people and the planet.

Authors: Kaykioğlu Gül , Görgülü Şeyda , Hanedar Asude
Published: September 2024

Discharge of colored wastewater, especially textile applications, into receiving environments can cause serious environmental problems. Conventional methods are not preferred because they are not successful in the treatment of colored wastewater or are not economical. Among different techniques, adsorption is gaining importance in pollutant removal from wastewater due to its low operating cost and ease of use. The use of agricultural wastes as low-cost adsorbents in the removal of dyestuffs from wastewater after applying various activation processes is of interest. The aim of this study is to evaluate the adsorption performance of methylene blue (MB) dye, which is used in textile, from aqueous solutions with walnut shell (WAC), an agricultural waste that has been pyrolyzed and activated with phosphoric acid. In the study, in batch experiments were carried out at fixed adsorbent dose (0.1 g/200 mL), constant temperature (20 0 C), different pH values (4, 6, 7, 9, 11), different contact times (0, 5, 15, 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes), different initial dyestuff amounts (2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 mg/L) and at different adsorbent doses (0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 1 g/ 200 mL) was carried out. Moreover; the effect of ionic strength on the color removal efficiency from the dye solution was evaluated by adding different salt doses (500, 1000, 1500, 2000 and 2500 mg/L NaCl). By increasing the pH value of the dye solution from 4 to 11, the color removal efficiency by WAC was determined as 65% at 90 minutes for pH:9, 4 mg/L MB concentration and 0.1 g/200 mL adsorbent dose. Optimum pH values were determined as 9 for WAC. In all experiments, adsorption increased with increasing contact time, and removal efficiency decreased with the increase in dye concentration. The color removal efficiency increased slightly with increasing ionic strength. While 38% removal efficiency was achieved with 2000 mg/L NaCl application in 90 minutes, the removal efficiency decreased to 30% with 2500 mg/L NaCl application.

Authors: Nileshbhai Solanki , Gosai Nita , Ramteke Leena , Bhimani Vasantray
Published: September 2024

Thoracoscopic esophagectomy is a complex procedure used for the treatment of esophageal cancer in which One Lung Ventilation (OLV) anesthesia is often used with several disadvantages associated mainly with respiratory system. But nowadays, the Two Lung Ventilation (TLV) approach has become popular due to reduction in induction time of anesthesia and better perioperative outcomes. The aim was to compare intraoperative respiratory functions and perioperative surgical parameters between One Lung Ventilation and Two Lung Ventilation anesthesia. Methods: In this randomised, prospective, double-blind study, a total of 80 adult patients (40 patients in each group), posted for video assisted thoracoscopic esophagectomy were included, from January 2021 to August 2022. In the OLV group (40 patients), a double -lumen endotracheal tube was used for One Lung Ventilation, and in the TLV group (40 patients), a single-lumen endotracheal tube was used for Two Lung Ventilation anesthesia. Intraoperative respiratory functions (PaO2 , PaCO2 ,) and perioperative surgical parameters were observed. Student's t-test and Chi-square tests were applied where appropriate. Statistical significance was defined as P < 0.05. (SPSS Version 20, IBM, USA) Results: All 80 patients underwent the thoracoscopic esophagectomy surgery successfully. The Two Lung Ventilation approach had better perioperative lung functions with statistically significant difference in PaO2 values (P value < 0.0001) at one hour and two hours of thoracoscopy, less preparation time for anesthesia (P value 0.014) and thoracoscopy operative time (P value 0.002) without any perioperative complications. Conclusion: Two Lung Ventilation anesthesia is a convenient and safe approach for thoracoscopic esophagectomy with better perioperative respiratory outcomes.

Published: September 2024

The present investigation assessed trait association and variability in biochemical and yield-related parameters in seventeen onion genotypes at ICAR-Directorate of Onion and Garlic Research, Rajgurunagar, Pune, during rabi seasons. The studied material included varieties, hybrids and promising lines of onion. On the basis of two years of pooled data, DOGR-344 recorded the highest marketable and total yield (385.53 and 398.55 q/ha, respectively) as well as the maximum average bulb weight (62.23 g). The hybrid BSS-133 recorded the highest pyruvic acid content (5.49 μmol/g), followed by Bhima Shweta (5.22 μmol/g) and hybrid DOGR WHY-2 (4.89 μmol/g). The DOGR Hy-8 (3.92%) and Bhima Kiran (2.91%) recorded the highest amount of reducing and non-reducing sugar content, respectively. Total soluble solids content was highest in L-355 (11.72%) followed by DOGR-361 (11.65%) and RGP-2 (11.63%). Marketable and total yield showed a significant positive correlation with average bulb weight, days to harvest, pyruvic acid content, non-reducing sugar content and total soluble solids. These traits have a significant negative correlation with neck thickness, percentage doubles and bolter bulbs. Findings from this investigation will be helpful in the selection of trait-specific genotypes for further improvement in onion.
