This study examines awareness and attitudes of active seniors in their use of digital devices and technological informatization, and investigates obstacles to improving their digital literacy through focus group interviews. The results show that most respondents recognized the need to adapt to rapid changes and were accepting of new technologies such as AI and ChatGPT. They were experienced in using various digital devices and the Internet, such as searching and updating Internet websites, smartphone apps and messengers, creating digital documents, video editing and production, and using non-face-to-face meeting apps. As to difficulties, reduced physical capabilities and security issues were considered the major hurdles in adapting to new technologies. Active seniors saw a strong need for more infrastructure that could provide basic digital technology education as well as access to education and motivation for taking classes, not only at welfare centers as part of the public support system but also at locations where seniors frequently visit. They also mentioned that community efforts to lower senior citizens' fear against digital technology would be helpful. Furthermore, the necessity of supporting not only short-term but also long-term digital literacy education according to the level of digital literacy of the elderly was raised.
Effect of gibberellic acid and plant nutrition on the growth and yield of transplanted rice (Oryza sativa L.) in Cauvery Delta Zone
Authors: DHAYANETHI M. , RAMESH S. , ARIVUKKARASU K. , SUDHAKAR P. , BARADHAN G.
Published: June 2024

The present rate of rice production growth is far below the population growth rate. Therefore, the present deceleration trend in production and yield is a cause of concern and has to be reversed to meet the growing demand. Moreover, the profit margin in rice cultivation has eroded making rice cultivation unattractive. Therefore, new technologies are essential to increasing rice production in the country to meet the future demand of exploding population. Hence, there is an urgent need for enhancement of the productivity of rice by proper agronomic practices. One among them is foliar application of PGRs and NPK fertilizers for exploiting genetic potential of the rice crop. Therefore, a field experiment was conducted during 2022 at the Agronomy Experimental Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University, Tamil Nadu, India to study the effect of plant growth regulators and nutrients on growth and yield of transplanted rice under wetland ecosystem. The rice variety ADT - 43 was used as test variety. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design and replicated thrice with ten treatments includes foliar spray of plant growth regulators (Gibberellic acid, Triacontanol, Sodium para- nitrophenolate) (20 DAT) alone and in combination with macro nutrients like DAP, KCl and NPK (19:19:19) (40 and 50 DAT). The growth, yield parameters, grain and straw yield of rice viz., plant height (101.43 cm), number of tillers/hill (11.85), dry matter production (14847.67 kg/ha), number of panicles/m2 (372.30 m-2) number of filled grains/panicle (125.41), grain yield (6485.25 kg/ha) and straw yield (8890.34 kg/ha) were strikingly impressive by foliar application of gibberellic acid 40 % WSG @ 20 g/ha (20 DAT) along with 2 % DAP + 1 % KCl (40 and 50 DAT). The same trend was followed in harvest index (42.18 %). These combinations showed remarkable promise and seemed to hold greater potential as efficient systems.

Authors: Paronikyan Ruzanna , Grigoryan Anahit , Barkhudaryants Iren , Arshakyan Lilit , Harutyunyan Artur
Published: June 2024

Background: Amino acid hydantoins are widely used in various fields, particularly in pharmacy. For example, phenytoin is used to treat generalized epileptic seizures.
Objective: This study aims to investigate the neurotropic properties of new amino acid hydantoin derivatives in order to identify new anticonvulsants with psychotropic properties.Methods: The compounds mentioned exhibited anticonvulsant properties that were evaluated through a series of tests: maximal electric shock, pentylenetetrazole, thiosemicarbazide, picrotoxin, strychnine, nicotine, and camphor convulsions on outbred mice. The psychotropic effects of the compounds were assessed through various tests,including the elevated plus maze (EPM), forced swimming, and open field tests. Additionally, their effect on the activity of monoamine oxidase (MAO) was investigated under in vitro conditions. The neurotoxic effect of these compounds was further examined by conducting the ''rotating rod'' test on mice.
Results: The five studied compounds, which are byproducts of amino acid hydantoins, along with Phenytoin and their lithium salts, display neurotropic properties, demonstrating anticonvulsant and psychotropic effects. Compounds that inhibit clonic pentylenetetrazole, maximal electroshock generalized tonic convulsions, nicotine, and kamphoraconvulsions, as well as exhibiting antithiosemicarbazide action in animals, display pronounced anxiolytic and behavior-activating effects across various internationally recognized models. Simultaneously, the compounds show antidepressant (evidenced by the "forced swimming" model) and anti-MAO effects. The compounds did notdemonstrate muscle relaxant effects in the doses examined. In certain aspects of their neurotropic properties, the compounds outperformed drugs currently used in the clinic, including Phenytoin, Ethosuximide, and lithium chloride(antimanic drug), among others.
Conclusion: Hydantoins derived from DL-tryptophan, DL-β-phenyl-α-alanine, and Phenytoin, along with their corresponding lithium salts, were synthesized. Both the anticonvulsant and psychotropic effects of these substances have been thoroughly studied. In several models, compounds that inhibit maximal electroshock convulsions in animals and clonic pentylenetetrazole also display anxiolytic and behavior-activating effects. These compounds also exhibit antidepressant and anti-MAO effects. The investigated compounds can be used in medicine, as drugs, in the treatment of epilepsy with psychotropic disorders.
Keywords: antiepileptic drugs, derivatives of amino acid, lithium salts, neurotropic activity, pentylenetetrazole convulsions.
(Un)Erhörte Kritik – intersektionale Betrachtungen zu elterlichen Aushandlungen in der postkolonialen Schweiz
Authors: Chamakalayil Lalitha , Ivanova-Chessex Oxana
Published: June 2024

Gestützt auf empirische Analysen aus einem Forschungsprojekt zu durch Machtverhältnisse strukturierten elterlichen Aushandlungen in Bildungskontexten wird im Beitrag der Frage nachgegangen, was es für rassifizierte Eltern bedeutet, Kritik zu üben, und was dies für die Soziale Arbeit bedeutet. Mit postkolonialen und intersektionalen Perspektiven wird die Situiertheit der Kritik im Kontext von Differenzund Machtverhältnissen ausgelotet und auf diese Weise in ihrer Voraussetzungshaftigkeit und (Un-)Erhörtheit verstehbar gemacht. Am Beispiel des biographischen Interviews mit einer Mutter wird den Fragen nachgegangen, a) wie und wo Räume elterlicher Kritik von pädagogischen Institutionen und gesellschaftlichen Verhältnissen entstehen; b) auf welche Weise diese Räume (global)gesellschaftlich situiert sind und wie die vergeschlechtlichte, klassenbezogene, (post)koloniale Machtmatrix wirkt; c) inwieweit und wie sich rassifizierte Eltern diese Handlungsspielräume aneignen und wo die Grenzen der Hörbarkeit ihrer Kritik verlaufen. Auf dieser Grundlage wird ein Fazit zu Handlungsfeldern einer postkolonialen, intersektional informierten Sozialen Arbeit gezogen.
Empirische Intersektionalitätsforschung im Spannungsfeld zwischen Rekonstruktion, Dekonstruktion und Reproduktion von sozialen Ausschlüssen
Authors: Afeworki Abay Robel , Cholewa Julia , Korntheuer Annette
Published: June 2024

Die Rezeption und Weiterführung des Intersektionalitätskonzepts erfährt gegenwärtig eine erhöhte wissenschaftliche Aufmerksamkeit, u.a. in den Sozialarbeitswissenschaften. Dennoch bleiben viele methodologische und forschungspraktische Fragen weiterhin offen. Eine intersektionale Perspektive weist auf die komplexen Bedingungen der Forschungspraxis hin, die auch im Zusammenhang mit den machtvollen Mechanismen der Reproduktion von einseitigen Zuschreibungen wie z.B. ,be-hindert‘ und ,migriert‘ bzw. ,geflüchtet‘ steht. Die essentialistische Konstruktion von gesellschaftlich marginalisierten Menschen als scheinbar homogene Untersuchungsgruppen rückt so gleich zu Beginn des Forschungsprozesses in den Fokus der notwendigen Reflexionsarbeit der Forschenden. In diesem Beitrag möchten wir Potenziale und zentrale Herausforderungen der Rekonstruktion von sozialen Ausschlüssen und der Dekonstruktion bestehender Kategorisierungspraxen aus unserer intersektionalen Forschungspraxis anhand von zwei aktuell laufenden Promotionsprojekten beleuchten, um zur empirischen Exploration und Weiterentwicklung der deutschsprachigen Intersektionalitätsforschung beizutragen.

Today, significant changes are taking place in the educational process, affecting its various aspects: innovative methods and technologies are being added to traditional methods and technologies, new forms of interaction with students using information technologies are emerging, and learning is becoming more personal and practice-oriented.

However, despite all the innovations, the key figure in the learning process is still the teacher, whose personal and professional qualities play an important role in the process of formation of students' personalities. This means that it is necessary to look for ways to optimize the training of future teachers, aimed at forming those qualities of a teacher's personality that will contribute to the organization of an effective and efficient learning process and upbringing of the younger generation.

Since 2021, the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, together with the Academy of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, has begun work on the introduction of specialized psychological and pedagogical classes into educational organizations and their development. To date, there are already more than 3,300 classes in 80 regions of our country, and by December 2024 there should be at least 5,000 of them. Already at the stage of school education, it is advisable to form a students' knowledge base in the pedagogical field, which will serve as a basis for the formation of skills, as well as for further development and improvement in this area. Accordingly, the practical component of the learning process becomes important. One of the academic subjects within which it is possible to organize serious practical activities for immersion in the profession is an "Individual project".

The article presents methodological recommendations for organizing project activity aimed at developing knowledge and skills in the pedagogical field, in psychological and pedagogical classes within the framework of the academic subject "Individual project". This activity is organized using online cooperation. The basis of this project activity is the synergy of a practice-oriented approach, inter[1]disciplinary communications, information technologies and career guidance. The result of each student's project should be an individual finished product  — a digital educational resource. The placement of such products in a common space will bring students closer to understanding what the digital educational environment is and how it can be used in professional activity.

Die rechtlich relevanten Umstände bei der Beurteilung der Verwechslungsgefahr im Kennzeichenrecht
Authors:   , Burkhard Daniel
Published: June 2024

Das Kennzeichenrecht besteht im Wesentlichen aus dem Marken-, Firmen-, Namens- und Lauterkeitsrecht. Diese Rechtsgebiete haben gemeinsam, dass sie den Schutz von Kennzeichen vor einer unzulässigen Beanspruchung durch Dritte bewirken. Im Zentrum steht dabei die Frage der Verwechslungsgefahr. An diesem Punkt setzt die vorliegende Dissertation an – untersucht werden die für die Beurteilung der Verwechslungsgefahr rechtlich relevanten Umstände. Soll es für die Beurteilung der Verwechslungsgefahr etwa eine Rolle spielen, zu welchem Preis die mit den Kennzeichen versehenen Produkte vertrieben werden, oder in welcher Branche die betreffenden Unternehmen tätig sind? Zur Beantwortung dieser Fragen werden in einem ersten Schritt die rechtsdogmatischen Grundlagen der verschiedenen Kennzeichenrechte erarbeitet. Ein besonderes Augenmerk liegt dabei auf der Rechtsnatur des Firmenrechts. In einem zweiten Schritt werden Umstände, welche die Verwechslungsgefahr beeinflussen können, erfasst und systematisiert. Ausgehend davon wird schliesslich für jedes Kennzeichenrecht einzeln hergeleitet, welche Umstände für die Beurteilung der Verwechslungsgefahr rechtlich relevant sind. Die Arbeit stellt damit ein Raster bereit, das nicht nur als Grundlage für weitere wissenschaftliche Studien dienen, sondern auch die Beurteilung der Verwechslungsgefahr für die Praxis erleichtern soll. Der Fokus der Arbeit liegt auf dem schweizerischen Kennzeichenrecht, wobei punktuell und ohne Anspruch auf umfassende Bearbeitung auch auf ausländische Rechtsordnungen – insbesondere das europäische und deutsche Recht – Bezug genommen wird.
Clinical evaluation and treatment of hypercortisolism that functional medicine practitioners should consider
Authors:   Korean Institute for Functional Medicine, Jung Susie
Published: June 2024

Hypercortisolism is a phenomenon identified in traditional medicine for Cushing's syndrome, an endocrine disease, but is
commonly discovered during clinical evaluation in functional medicine. Endogenous Cushing's syndrome itself is an uncommon
disease, but if not properly evaluated, it can cause various complications in patients, so early detection and treatment are
important. Additionally, pseudo-Cushing's syndrome, which may appear to be Cushing's syndrome, is often closely related
to mental illness and stress reactions. As a functional medicine physician, it is important to understand cortisol metabolism
and testing methods to evaluate hypercortisolism, and it is necessary to consider various patient’s conditions and solutions
when hypercortisolism is confirmed.
Case report on effect of the trigeminal ganglion block and thymosin alpha 1 for intractable postherpetic itch
Authors:   Korean Institute for Functional Medicine, Han Kyung Ream
Published: June 2024

Postherpetic itch (PHI), a common condition in neuropathic itch is not as well studied as postherpetic neuralgia. Intractable
PHI is thought to be hyperexcitability of itch-transmission nervous system caused by neural injury from herpes zoster. In
some cases, PHI is very severe to compromise patient’s quality of life and refractory to conventional treatments. Here, it
is reported that a case of severe chronic PHI was reduced with trigeminal ganglion blocks and thymosin alpha 1 injections.
A 74-year-old man complained of severe itching with hypoesthesia in his left eyebrow and scalp for 5 years after the initial
onset of herpes zoster at the same site, despite treatment with two types of antihistamines, gabapentin, and amitriptyline.
He developed ulcers on his forehead and scalp because of his scratching. Trigeminal ganglion blocks and thymosin alpha
1 injections reduced itching, with the ulcers disappearing within 1 month. In this case, it is suggested that trigeminal ganglion
blocks and thymosin alpha 1 injection may be a useful treatment option for PHI.
Business associations and the adaptation of Russian manufacturing enterprises to sanctions: 2018 vs. 2022
Authors: Kazun A. P. , Mukovnin S. K.
Published: June 2024

This study explores the role of business associations in adaptation of Russian companies to international sanctions. To address this query, we have used survey data from leaders of Russian manufacturing companies in 2018 and 2022, which are representative in terms of size and sectors. Membership in a business association has a dual nature: on the one hand, associations can act as a tool for adapting to sanction shocks (direct effect); on the other hand, because of the self-selection effect, they tend to comprise more proactive and resilient companies, which are less fearful of external shocks and, as a result, may be less inclined to take active measures (indirect effect). We distinguish these effects from our analysis by constructing models using a mediator. The findings indicate that in 2018, members of business associations perceived the consequences of sanctions as less severe and were less likely to take any action, possibly because sufficient time had passed for adaptation to them since 2014. Conversely, in 2022, membership in associations did not reduce leaders’ perceptions of the seriousness of sanctions. However, we have found a direct effect of associations, revealing in a quicker response of their members to sanctions, including seeking new suppliers and reducing costs.
