PROCESAMIENTO DE DATOS SATELITALES ÓPTICOS Y DE RADAR PARA LA DETECCIÓN DE CAMBIOS MORFOMÉTRICOS: EL CASO DE LA DESEMBOCADURA DEL RÍO SAUCE GRANDE (ARGENTINA)
Authors: Brendel Andrea Soledad , Ferrelli Federico , Echeverria María Florencia de Uribe , Piccolo Maria Cintia , Perillo Gerardo Miguel Eduardo
Published: April 2022

El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar los cambios morfométricos de la desembocadura del río Sauce Grande (Argentina) a partir del procesamiento de datos satelitales ópticos y de radar. Se realizó un análisis visual de imágenes satelitales de alta resolución durante el período 2011-2018. Las imágenes mostraron que, en el año 2018 en la desembocadura del río, se originó un nuevo canal distributario. Para detectar la fecha de su generación, se procesaron imágenes Landsat 8 OLI-TIRS y Sentinel 1A y 1B. Se analizó la variabilidad pluviométrica para comprobar si la variación morfométrica fue originada por la precipitación. La aparición del nuevo distributario ocurrió en la semana del 7 al 13 de septiembre, producto de una precipitación torrencial y un subsiguiente período húmedo con precipitaciones intensas que duró dos meses y que no son comunes en la región. El canal fue intermitente, dado que se observó sólo hasta noviembre 2018. Las imágenes ópticas no permitieron analizar los cambios morfométricos debido a la importante nubosidad, mientras que las imágenes de radar proporcionaron la información necesaria para observar el cambio morfométrico. El método empleado es muy útil en aquellas regiones que presentan datos escasos o inexistentes y que tienen una alta cobertura nubosa.

Authors: Alsafi Noufal H.J. , Zangana Bushra S.R.
Published: April 2022

The experiment aimed to study the use of different proportions of raw and treated Chenopodium quinoa seeds by soaking in the diet in order to identify the effect on the productive performance characteristics of broilers of 42 days of age. A 336 sexed broilers (Ross 308) were distributed randomly at one-day old, with an average initial weight of 39 g/chick, divided into seven treatments, 48 chicks/treatment, each treatment included three replicates, 16 chicks/replicate (8 males and 8 females). The chicks were fed on the starter diet (1-14) days of age, the grower diet of (15-28) days of age, and finisher diet (29-42) days of age, supplemented with raw quinoa seeds and treated by soaking as the first treatment (T1) was a control treatment without any addition. (T2) added 0.5% raw quinoa seeds, (T3) added 1% raw quinoa seeds, (T4) added 1.5% raw quinoa seeds, (T5) added 0.5% quinoa seeds treated with soaking, (T6) added 1% quinoa seeds treated with soaking, (T7) added 1. 5% quinoa seeds treated with soaking. The results showed a significant superiority (P<0.05) in the production performance in the final body weight rate, the total weight gain, and the cumulative feed consumption for the treatments of using raw and treated quinoa seeds (T2, T4, T5, T6, and T7) compared to the control treatment. It is concluded from the current study that the raw and treated quinoa seeds used in the broiler diet, and by increasing the concentrations, improved the production performance. Besides, this improvement appears obviously at the level of 1.5% of the seeds treated by soaking.

Published: April 2022

In this paper, we study and investigate the quark anti-quark interaction mechanism through the annihilation process. The production of photons in association with interaction quark and gluon in the annihilation process. We investigate the effect of critical temperature, strength coupling and photons energy in terms of the quantum chromodynamics model theory framework. We find that the use of large critical temperature Tc =134 allows us to dramatically increase the strength coupling of quarks interaction. Its sensitivity to decreasing in photons rate with respect to strength coupling estimates. We also discuss the effect of photons energy on the rate of the photon , such as energies in range (1.5 to 5 GeV).The photons rate increases association at Tc=116MeV with the more decreased photons energy compared with photos rate association n t Tc=116MeV. This relation of strength coupling a, critical temperature and photons energy are particularly relevant when parametrizing systematic photons emission.

The discovery of organ damages and the presence of heavy metals on the tilapia fish body indicated that Batur Lake water has been polluted by human activity around the lake.
Diversitätsorientierte Öffnung in Öffentlichen Bibliotheken am Beispiel der Bücherhallen Hamburg
Authors: Linneberg Sylvia
Published: April 2022

Die Kulturstiftung des Bundes fördert seit 2018 die diversitätsorientierte Öffnung öffentlicher Kultureinrichtungen in Deutschland im Rahmen des Programms „360° – Fonds für Kulturen der neuen Stadtgesellschaft“. Es geht darum, die Sichtbarkeit, Teilhabe und Repräsentation derjenigen Menschen zu erhöhen, die aufgrund diskriminierender und rassistischer Strukturen Ausgrenzung und Marginalisierung erfahren. Dies betrifft Menschen mit Einwanderungsgeschichte, ebenso wie Menschen mit Behinderungen, queeren Personen, Menschen in prekären Lebenssituationen u. v. a. Die Bücherhallen Hamburg nehmen als eine von 39 Kultureinrichtungen an diesem Programm teil. In den Bereichen Personal, Programm und Publikum haben sie Maßnahmen eingeleitet, um Zugangsbarrieren und Ausschlussmechanismen zu identifizieren und abzubauen. Mit ihrem Vorhaben der „35 offenen Türen“ bemühen sie sich, in allen Stadtteilen neue Kooperationen und Netzwerke aufzubauen, um gemeinsam mit Communities, Initiativen und Vereinen partizipative Veranstaltungsformate zu entwickeln. Zur Erlangung von mehr Diversity-Kompetenz erhalten die Mitarbeitenden Schulungen und engagieren sich in Diversity-AGs. Die Zukunftsfähigkeit der Kulturinstitutionen in Deutschland hängt maßgeblich davon ab, inwieweit sie sich in den kommenden Jahren diversitätssensibel, rassismus- und diskriminierungskritisch aufstellen und positionieren werden. Die relativ homogene Gruppe der sogenannten Babyboomer geht in den Ruhestand und es rücken insbesondere in den Städten hyperdiverse Generationen nach, die dies einfordern und ihre Arbeits- und Wirkungsstätten danach auswählen werden.
Estimating the Effect of Transaction Costs Using the Tick Size as a Proxy
Authors: Sirnes Espen
Published: April 2022

A method is proposed for estimating the effect of transaction costs on volatility, using the tick size as a proxy. The method involves three steps: (1) collect only the cases in which the tick size changes from one regime to another; (2) estimate the effect with and without the order book size; and (3) use local data on the tick size and volatility but instruments from international markets. The first step handles stationarity and dependence. The second step is used to infer the effect of a symmetric transaction cost as the tick size is a revenue and not a cost for liquidity providers. Regressions with and without the order book may therefore indicate the extent to which this asymmetry is likely to affect the result. The third step handles endogeneity. The method is applied to intraday data from the Norwegian Stock Exchange. The results show that both the tick size and the inferred transaction costs have no significant effect on volatility.

The World Ear Project (1970–87)
Authors: Palmese Michael
Published: April 2022

This article presents an examination of the World Ear Project, a radio program developed by Charles Amirkhanian and Richard Friedman in August 1970 in Berkeley, California, that reframes the birth of acoustic ecology, conventionally viewed as a discipline created by R. Murray Schafer in Canada during the 1960s and ’70s. The article begins by presenting the sociocultural and musical circumstances that led to the creation of this radio program, emphasizing the compositional work of Luc Ferrari, whose interest in recording ambient environments was a major influence on Amirkhanian and Friedman. Analysis of archival broadcasts suggests that the World Ear Project was a space in which composers could contribute and use the medium of field recording to interrogate their creative practices, while average KPFA listeners also steadily provided diverse soundscape recordings of environments from across the globe.

Further analysis of broadcasts, scripts, and other archival materials related to the World Ear Project reveal that this egalitarian, listener-driven radio series exemplified the democratic, activist principles at the core of its parent organization, the Pacifica Foundation. Crucially, we find many soundscape recordings related to contemporaneous Cold War inflection points and decolonization efforts on the World Ear Project, highlighting the broader progressive contours in which the program was conceived. The article concludes by suggesting that the World Ear Project reframes our understanding of the early history of acoustic ecology, having developed independently of Schafer’s work in Canada and taking an optimistic view of recording technology and the soundscapes of the modern, industrial world.
The Use of Covid-19 Digital Applications and Unavoidable Threats to the Protection of Health Data and Privacy
Authors: Dąbrowska-Kłosińska Patrycja , Grzelak Agnieszka , Nimark Agnieszka
Published: April 2022

This paper starts with a dilemma. How to ensure the adequate protection of individual health data and privacy in a global pandemic, which has intensified the use of digital applications for the purposes of data sharing and contact-tracing? There is no simple answer to this question when choosing between the protection of public health and individual privacy. However, the history of the existing case-law regarding infectious diseases control, both Polish and European, teaches about numerous examples in which health data and privacy were not adequately protected, but, on the contrary, were misused leading to human rights infringements. In light of this case law and public health ethics, this paper argues radically that the use of digital applications to fight the Covid-19 pandemic has not been sufficiently justified at least in the Polish context. Especially, unconvincing benefits from the use of these tools do not outweigh the likelihood of human rights infringements with far-reaching consequences for political, social and economic rights now and in the future. In its novelty, this article combines a historical-legal method with the concept of public health ethics and a human rights-based approach and to foster further research and discussion. The text also responds to the pressing need to analyze those human rights issues embedded in the Polish reality.
Human Enhancement in the Context of Disability (Bioethical Considerations from the Perspective of Transhumanism)
Authors: Breczko Anetta
Published: April 2022

In the present paper we examine several problems associated with medical development in the field of human-enhancing technologies, particularly with respect to disability. The subject of our considerations partly focuses on the fact that progress in biotechnology and information technology in medicine has contributed to the elimination of diseases and various health disorders (including some aspects of disability). Furthermore, we centre our attention on the dilemma of increasing the efficiency and activity of those who are ‘fully functional’, by introducing, among others, the available exo-extensions (such as exo-prostheses), endo-implantation and reprogenetics (such as PDG and CRISPR methods). Finally, we point out several ethical and legal doubts surrounding the apparent intention of creating a transhumanist vision of the ‘perfect human being’ (‘post-human’, ‘bionic human’, ‘human cyborg’).

PRODUKTIVITAS, KOMPOSISI HASIL TANGKAPAN DAN DAERAH PENANGKAPAN JARING CANTRANG YANG BERBASIS DI PPP TEGALSARI, TEGAL
Authors: Ernawati Tri , Atmadja Suherman Banon
Published: April 2022

Jaring cantrang merupakan alat tangkap tradisional yang telah lama beroperasi di Laut Jawa. Cantrang merupakan alat tangkap yang cukup efektif untuk memanfaatkan sumberdaya ikan demersal. Sebelum tahun 1980 jaring cantrang dioperasikan dengan menggunakan kapal berukuran relatif kecil yaitu kurang dari 10 GT. Alat tangkap cantrang di Tegal dioperasikan oleh kapal-kapal dengan ukuran berkisar 5 -30 GT. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mendapatkan informasi mengenai produktivitas cantrang, komposisi hasil tangkapan dan daerah penangkapannya. Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah metode survei. Periode pengumpulan data dilakukan pada bulan Maret 2010 hingga Januari 2011. Data hasil tangkapan dianalisis dengan menggunakan ANOVA. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa produktivitas cantrang per trip, per hari dan per tawur berbeda-beda. Perbedaan hasil tangkapan antara lain disebabkan oleh: a) adanya perbedaan perlakuan teknik pengoperasian jaring cantrang karena pengaruh gelombang, arah arus dan kemampuan olah gerak kapal, b). jumlah tawur/setting yang berbeda-beda tiap hari nya dalam setiap trip dan c). kondisi fishing ground yang berbeda. Perbedaan komposisi hasil tangkapan cantrang disebabkan oleh kondisi sumber daya di daerah penangkapan dan perbedaan kedalaman perairan. Perubahan daerah penangkapan cantrang tidak dipengaruhi oleh perubahan musim. Perubahan daerah penangkapan lebih dipengaruhi oleh faktor kondisi cuaca dan pengalaman berdasarkan perolehan hasil tangkapan pada trip-trip sebelumnya. Danish seine (cantrang) is a traditional fishing gear having been used for a long time in Java Sea. Cantrang is an effective fishing gear to exploit the of demersal fish resource. Before 1980, cantrang was operated by using small boat less than 10 GT. In Tegal the danish seine were operated by boat with size were between 5–30 GT. The aimof this study is to obtain the information on productivity, catch composition, and fishing ground of cantrang. The research was conducted by survey method. Data were calculated during the period of March 2010 to January 2011. Catch data was analyzed by Analysis of Variance. The result showed that productivity of Danish seine per trip, per day and per setting was different. The differences of catch were caused by several factors such as: a) a different treatment of cantrang operation because of the wave influence, current direction, and ability of ship manuver , b). the number of setting per day in every trips and c). the different condition of fishing ground. The difference of cantrang catch composition is caused by condition of resource in different fishing ground and the waters depth. The alteration of cantrang fishing ground is not influenced by the change of season. It is influenced by the condition of weather and the experience based on the fish catch result on the previous trips

Published: April 2022

Informasi kondisi populasi ikan tuna mata besar di perairan Samudera Hindia belum banyak diketahui. Hal ini dapat diprediksi melalui pendekatan dengan menggunakan analisis DNA. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan informasi keragaman genetik dan struktur populasi ikan tuna mata besar dari perairan Samudera Hindia sebelah selatan Jawa dan Nusa Tenggara, dan barat Sumatera. Pengambilan sampel ikan tuna mata besar dilakukan pada bulan Maret sampai November 2010 berlokasi di perairan Samudera Hindia sebelah selatan Jawa dan Nusa Tenggara, dan barat Sumatera. Pengumpulan sampel jaringan (sirip) ikan tuna mata besar dilakukan oleh observer di atas kapal tuna longline. Nilai keragaman haplotipe (genetik) yang diperoleh adalah 0,8267 untuk kelompok sampel 1 dan 0,7766 untuk kelompok sampel 2 dengan nilai rata-rata keragaman genetik adalah 0,8017. Jarak genetik antara kelompok sampel ikan tuna mata besar di Samudera Hindia adalah 0,0038. Dendrogram yang dibentuk berdasarkan jarak genetik menunjukkan bahwa kelompok sampel ikan tuna mata besar yang diamati dapat dibagi menjadi dua kelompok populasi (subpopulasi), yaitu kelompok pertama terdiri dari ikan tuna mata besar yang berasal dari Samudera Hindia selatan Jawa dan Nusa Tenggara, sedangkan kelompok kedua yang berasal dari Samudera Hindia barat Sumatera. Information of bigeye tuna population condition in Indian Ocean has been not known. This can be predicted through the approach of using DNA analysis. This study aimes to obtain information on genetic diversity and population structure of the bigeye tuna from the Indian Ocean south of Java and Nusa Tenggara, and West Sumatra. Sampling bigeye tuna conducted in March until November 2010 is located in the Indian Ocean south of Java and Nusa Tenggara, and West Sumatra. The samples (fin) of bigeye tuna was collected by the observers on board tuna longline. Value of haplotype diversity (genetic) obtained was 0.8267 for the sample group 1 and 0.7766 for sample group 2 with an average was 0.8017. Genetic distance between sample groups of bigeye tuna in the Indian Ocean was 0.0038. Dendrogram established based on genetic distance shows that the group of bigeye tuna observed can be divided into two groups of populations (subpopulations), the first group consisted of bigeye tuna from the Indian Ocean south of Java and Nusa Tenggara, while the second group was from the Indian Ocean west of Sumatra.

Published: April 2022

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate gestational losses between 30 and 120 days of gestation and reconception in beef cows submitted to fixed-time artificial insemination (FTAI). The 18,462 information from the zootechnical file of animals submitted to FTAI in the period of the breeding season from November 2019 to April 2020 in the semiarid region of Minas Gerais were analyzed. The parameters evaluated were gestational loss, animal category, presence of the calf with the cow, body condition score (BCS) and final situation of the breeding season of the females that lost gestation after FTAI, the data were analyzed by Person's chi-square test (χ²) and Kruskal-Wallis test, with a significance level of 5% with use of the SPSS program. The final pregnancy rate was 58.52%. The loss rate between the first and second gestational diagnosis was 3.6%. Dependence was observed between the variables category and gestational loss (χ²= 12.374, p<0.05). The presence of the calf or not at the foot of the cow had no influence in relation to gestational loss (p>0.05). The difference in BSC between the categories was significant (p<0.05). Final situation was influenced (p<0.05) by animal category. Calving order and body condition score significantly influenced the gestational loss rate.
Recycled Pequi (Caryocar brasiliense, Camb.) Shell Ethanolic Extract Induces Apoptosis in Canine Osteosarcoma Cells
Authors: Braga Karla Márcia da Silva , Cruz Vanessa de Sousa , Arnhold Emmanuel , Araújo Eugênio Gonçalves de
Published: April 2022

Abstract Osteosarcoma is a mesenchymal cancer associated with high mortality in dogs and in humans. The biodiversity-rich Cerrado, the predominant biome in the Midwest region of Brazil, is native to locally appreciated fruits such as pequi (Caryocar brasiliense, Camb). Although this plant has been frequently used in folk medicine, the pharmacological properties of pequi fruit shells have not been fully evaluated. Thus, this study aimed to determine the cytotoxic activity of ethanol extract of recycled pequi shells on canine osteosarcoma cells in vitro. Cells were cultured and treated with final extract concentrations of 0, 0.029 µg/µL, 0.29 µg/µL, and 2.91 µg/µL for 24, 48, or 72 hours. Cell viability assay using trypan blue exclusion method and tetrazolium reduction method, cell survival assay, and double labeling with annexin V and propidium iodide were performed in the treated osteosarcoma cells. These allowed the determination of IC50, survival fraction, and type of cell death, respectively. Pequi shell ethanol extract at a concentration of 2.91 µg/µL showed the greatest inhibition of osteosarcoma cell growth in vitro, resulting in a 71.80% decrease in growth compared to the control. The mean IC50 was 155.2 μg/mL at 72 hours. The calculated survival fractions showed that cell growth at 72 hours was 3.33% lower in cells treated with 2.91 µg/µL extract. Results from the double labeling experiment suggest that apoptosis was the predominant type of cell death in cells treated with 2.91 µg/µL extract. These results demonstrate that ethanol extract of recycled pequi shells promotes apoptosis in canine osteosarcoma cells.

Abstract Objective: To describe the characteristics of stage-5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) children and adolescents undergoing renal replacement therapy (RRT) in Amazonas, Brazil, estimating the frequencies of current and new cases, describing the presence of anemia and bone metabolism disorders. Methods: Thirty-five patients aged 7 to 19 years-old on hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD) were studied between June 2018 and April 2019. The frequencies of current and new cases were estimated based on the 0 to 19 years-old population of Amazonas, in the same period. Data were collected about the underlying cause and diagnosis of CKD, dialysis, and biochemical analysis. Results: The frequencies of current and new cases were 24 and 15 patients per million people of compatible age (pmpca), respectively. The causes of CKD were nephrotic syndrome (22.8%), nephritic syndrome (14.3%), and neurogenic bladder (14.3%); in 48.6%, the cause was unknown/not investigated. Ten patients underwent renal biopsy, seven with segmental and focal glomerulosclerosis. The majority (80%) were on HD, with an average kt/V of 1.4, and in 51.4% the vascular access was the double lumen catheter. Hypocalcemia was found in 82.8% of patients, hyperphosphatemia in 57.2%, vitamin D insufficiency or deficiency in 60%, and altered parathyroid hormone values in 48.6%. Hemoglobin was low in 80%, with absolute/functional iron deficiency in 28.6%. Conclusions: In children and adolescents of Amazonas, Brazil, we found 24 pmpca with stage-5 CKU currently in RRT and 16.3 pmpca per year of new cases requiring RRT. Most patients were adolescents on HD, half without a causal diagnosis of CKD, with a high frequency of anemia and bone metabolism disorder.

Social Media Body Image Disorder-A New Diagnosis Facing Surgeons
Authors: L Barnouti , EA Stanley , S Azzawi
Published: April 2022

Body image disorders can have crippling effects on the physical and mental health of a person and their support networks. These disorders are common in younger generations and can lead to serious impact on their daily life. As global communities come together with the internet and social media, we are seeing their impacts on perceptions of appearance and body image. Younger generations are susceptible to these influences from social media, with mental health issues arising from appearance and body dissatisfaction. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders V (DSM-V) assists clinicians with understanding and defining many mental health disorders, however we believe that the influence of social media on body image disorders warrants its own diagnosis. We propose a new disorder termed Social Media Body Image Disorder (SMBID). Awareness of this disorder may help clinicians identify patients that have unrealistic expectations from cosmetic procedures.
A rare occurrence of ganglion cysts on the posterolateral aspect of the elbow without neurological manifestations: a case series and review of the literature
Authors: Meier Warren , Tsama Mluleki , A Aden Abdirashid
Published: April 2022

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The occurrence of ganglion cysts around the elbow is rare, and the occurrence of these lesions without any symptoms of compression to the nearby structures is even rarer. Most published cases of elbow ganglions have reported patients with symptoms relating to compression of the radial nerve, or branches thereof secondary to anteriorly located cysts. We present two cases of ganglions occurring on the posterolateral aspect of the elbow with no pressure symptoms to the radial nerve CASE SERIES: The first case is a 33-year-old male, with a seven-month history of a spontaneous, slow-growing mass on the posterolateral aspect of his left elbow. The second case is a 38-year-old female, with a 12-month history of a spontaneous mass on the posterolateral aspect of her left elbow. In both cases, the reason for presentation was the unsightly elbow with an enlarging mass. The lesions were painless and both patients were neurologically intact with no restriction on range of motion of the joint. Both patients underwent excision of the mass for aesthetic reasons DISCUSSION: Patients with elbow ganglions usually have cysts located anterior to the radiocapitellar joint and almost invariably present with an associated motor, or less commonly, a sensory deficit of the radial nerve. Various treatment modalities have been reported; however, the vast majority undergo open surgical excision due to their association with progressive neurological symptoms. This usually leads to resolution of symptoms, and recurrence is rare CONCLUSION: The clinical presentation of the two patients reported in this case series seems to be far less frequent than patients presenting with a neuropathy of the radial nerve due to an anteriorly located elbow ganglion. It cannot, however, be excluded that there is an underreporting of asymptomatic elbow ganglions. According to our review of the English literature, this is only the third report of an asymptomatic elbow ganglion in the lateral compartment of the elbow Level of evidence: Level 5 Keywords: elbow, ganglion, cyst
The Mediating Role of Life Satisfaction in the Relationship between Time Management and Communication Skills
Authors: Seyithan Demirdağ
Published: April 2022

This study was conducted as a descriptive correlational research with the purpose of examining the mediator role of life satisfaction in the relationship between time management and communication skills of graduate students attending to master’s and PhD programs in higher education. The study sample included 591 students (348 males and 243 females; and age range = 22 to 56). The data were collected using data collection instruments such as The Free Time Management Scale (FTMS), Communication Skills Scale (CSS), and Higher Education Life Satisfaction Scale (HELSS). SPSS and AMOS programs were used for data analysis. The data were analyzed using Pearson’ correlation, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), mediation analysis. The findings of the study showed that life satisfaction was a partial mediator in the relationship between time management and communication skills of master’s and PhD students. As the numbers of studies examining the relationship among graduate students’ time management, communication skills and life satisfaction in master’s and PhD programs are quite rare, this research is aimed to make contributions to literature for such matter.
Review on Genomics, Production Potential and Usefulness of Camel as the Animal of Future
Authors: Hussain Tanveer
Published: April 2022

Food security issues are persistently emerging in proportionate to the growth of human population. This scenario demands a search for alternate and development of new food sources. Camel can therefore be the best alternative and beneficial addition to food supply chain providing milk and meat for humans. It is an imperative component of desert ecosystem with much better feed conversion ratio. Hence in arid zones, it provides more milk and meat with less consumption of feed and fodder. Moreover, Heat Shock proteins present in camel serve as molecular chaperones and strengthen its resistance capability against hostile desert environment ultimately facilitating its survival. Distinctive nutritional value of its milk is thought to have therapeutic attributes. Furthermore, camel milk inherently possesses antimicrobial agents which promote its antiviral and antibacterial capacity. Its unique adaptability and superiority over other livestock has compelled scientists for the last few decades to explore its hidden potential. Its proper breeding and farming infrastructure, well backed by scientific advancements, does not exist which need to be essentially developed and established, the initiative not possible without collaborative research efforts. Under present conditions and keeping in view the requirements of the masses, the investigative work should focus on its therapeutic, biological, and functional properties instead of pursuing trivial aspects. Successful management and efficient handling of these researchable avenues can facility efficient utilization of this animal to meet the ever-increasing food demands of the masses. This review article will highlight its wonderful adaptive features, genetic make-up, usefulness at present, and its potential for future food security. © 2022 Friends Science Publishers

Epigenetyczne mechanizmy generatywnego rozmnażania roślin okrytonasiennych
Authors: Niedojadło Katarzyna , Bednarska-Kozakiewicz Elżbieta
Published: April 2022

Mechanizmy epigenetyczne, takie jak metylacja DNA, interfencja RNA oraz potranslacyjne modyfikacje histonów i rearanżacje struktury chromatyny, odgrywają istotną rolę w procesach reprogramowania genomu zarówno zwierząt, jak i roślin. Prawidłowy epigenetyczny wzorzec markerów eu- i heterochromatynowych pozwala bowiem na utrzymanie chromatyny w stanie aktywnym lub transkrypcyjnie wyciszonym. W cyklu życiowym roślin okrytozalążkowych mechanizmy epigenetyczne uczestniczą w reprogramowaniu genomu podczas: 1) różnicowania komórek sporofitu w komórki macierzyste spor (KMS), które przejdą podział mejotyczny, 2) rozwoju żeńskiego i męskiego gametofitu, w którym wyróżnicują się gamety, 3) po procesie podwójnego zapłodnienia podczas rozwoju zarodka i bielma. Specjacja KMS i kontrola mejozy, a następnie reprogramowanie genomu komórek plemnikowych i komórki jajowej, nie są autonomiczne i odbywają się na drodze RdDM. W procesy te zaangażowane są komórki towarzyszące, które produkują „mobilne” sygnały w formie siRNA. Epigenetyczna kontrola ekspresji genów z udziałem siRNA uczestniczy także w utrzymaniu integralności genomu gamet i zarodka oraz nałożeniu imprintingu rodzicielskiego.

Published: April 2022

The research aimed to assess the cases of domestic violence against women (VAW) in selected barangays in the Municipality of Santa Cruz, Laguna, Philippines and develop an action plan to enhance the VAW services of the barangays. Descriptive-qualitative research method was employed where documentary analysis and respondent interviews were used to gather data. Permission from concerned agencies and local government units (LGUs) was sought to use and analyze records and other relevant data regarding cases of violence against women. Consent and approval before conducting interview among victims and survivors of violence against women was carefully sought with utmost confidentiality. Results showed that physical abuse of women is the most common recorded case. Other reported cases include psychological abuse, threatening, abandonment of children, child support issues, child custody, and economic abuse. Cases of domestic violence against women occurred because of perpetrator’s dependence on illegal drugs, jealousy and the presence of third party in their relationship, perpetrator’s influence of alcohol, unemployment and provocation of the intimate partner. Barangay respondents provide services in addressing VAW in compliance with the Magna Carta of Women and R.A. 9262. Certain conditions and challenges regarding VAW services of barangay were observed during the conduct of this study.
Demystifying and Coping with English for Science and Technology
Authors: Forchap Justine
Published: April 2022

Abstract

Advancement in technology acts as a catalyst in the modern world as it constantly challenges old ways of doing things. Its impact on the English language has far reaching consequences in all walks of life. The English language is dynamic, adapting to the development in science and technology, which in turn responds to scientific, technological, social and economic needs.  Teachers of English for science and technology have a new function which is keeping abreast with the galloping advancement in science and technology. A crucial problem for students is using the new words flexibly, and in cases where there are other English meanings, be able to come out of the scientific boundary and  discuss scientific and non-scientific issues confidently Forchap (2016). This calls for hard, careful and thorough work so as to make the teaching and learning of EST meaningful. 

 Science and technology are problem-solving and so is the English language. It is therefore important to demystify the teaching the teaching of EST in order to solve a problem in the world of science and technology.       

In Cameroon, there is a dire need to raise awareness. As pointed out in Forchap (2016) the university authorities cling to the traditional methods of teaching English and resent changes. It is in this light that seminars and workshops are recommended to sensitize teachers of English on this issue. The university authorities are in control of the curriculums which makes it easier for English courses to turn to the right direction which aims at accelerating the growth in English courses to meet the needs of specific discipline.
