Role of small-scale trees plantation and farmers' attitude and skill toward propagation of indigenous and exotic trees: The case of Sidama, Ethiopia
Authors:   Hawassa University, Keneni YG , Senbeta AF , Sime G
Published: December 2021

The tree land cover in Ethiopia is declining due to deforestation, agricultural land expansion, overgrazing, firewood use and construction. Farm tree plantation has a potential to improve tree cover and the country's vision towards reducing greenhouse gases (GHG) emission by 2030. This study was conducted in Sidama of Ethiopia to assess the role of small-scale tree plantations, and the attitudes and skills of farmers in propagating and conserving indigenous trees as compared to exotic ones, and to identify major impediments for exotic and indigenous tree plantation. By using stratified random sampling, 149 household heads were selected and interviewed, and the tree plantation practices of 46 randomly selected farmers were observed. Advice and support given to farmers concerning tree plantation and nursery care were collected from 16 Woreda Rural Development Experts. During the study a total of 46 tree species were identified, and 92% of the trees on the farmland were exotic. The percentage composition of the five most dominant tree species were Eucalyptus spp. (79.6%), Cupressus spp (8.5%), Cordia africana (4.8%), Grevillea robusta (3.3%), and Millettia ferruginea (1.8%). The trees provide several direct and indirect socio-economic and ecological importance (construction, fuel, income, medicinal value, fencing, asset for present and next generation, fodder for livestock, garden shade, aesthetic, recreation, spiritual value, improve soil fertility and environmental impact remediation). The majority of farmers prefer exotic trees due to their fast growth, ease of nursery preparation and fast establishment, and higher income generation in shorter period. Though farmers like to plant indigenous trees for their ecological services such as improving soil fertility, producing durable household utensils, shading and other ecological values; land shortage and lack of knowledge on plant biology, nursery preparation and propagation method constrained its plantation. Therefore, introduction of appropriate technologies to the existing farming system is required for sustainable indigenous tree plantation in the study area.

Authors:   Hawassa University, Gelaye G , Sandip B , Mestawet T
Published: December 2021

Wool is a natural fibre with a unique amalgamation of properties that are exploited in garment industry. The wool industry, in particular the production of fine wool, has a notable role in world trade and the price of the wool is dependent on quality. Accordingly, wool characteristics have direct impact on wool prices set by processors and industry. These properties can particularly benefit the wearer of the garment during exercise. There are different factors affecting wool quality parameters both with direct and indirect involvement. The environmental and genetics are the main factors affecting quality and quantity of wool from sheep. Infections related to skin and parasitic infestations have direct influence on the quality of wool. Breed or genotype is one of the main genetic factors that influences the product and productivity as well as quality of wool from sheep that is fleece from different sheep breeds is different in its both physical and chemical characteristics. Hormonal changes in relation to sex of sheep also have effect on the wool quality traits. The main objective of this review was to define and explore key wool characteristics, such as staple length, number of crimp, fibre type, fibre diameter, wool wax and scouring yield in regards to quality and interventions approaches for improving. In most of studies, non-genetic factors such as age, season, shearing period, shearing frequency and nutrition have a significant effect on traits viz. staple length, wool wax, scouring yield, fibre diameter and for other traits as well. Conducting a research on wool quality characteristics is an operative way of defining and differentiating the quality of wool. Acquiring knowledge of the wool quality characteristics can help to manage the end use products, consumers comfort and processing intensity. Therefore, an understanding of the factors affecting physical and chemical properties of wool traits is important to improve the quality of wool through genetics and management interventions. This article reviews some important quality attributes of wool for the product and productivity development and value addition.

One of the fast-growing major non-communicable diseases (NCD) that poses a danger to global public health is Diabetes mellitus (DM). Trends in the incidence of DM indicate a disproportionate increase in developing countries due to current rapid demographic transitions from traditional to more westernized and urbanized lifestyles. Knowledge of DM is vital for curbing or control. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the level of knowledge and awareness of DM among the Ho municipality general population, identify areas of deficiency for targeted health education efforts, and identify respondent characteristics that may be associated with knowledge of diabetes. A survey involving 132 respondents (age over 18 years) was conducted in the Ho municipality of the Volta region of Ghana. A 42-item pre-tested questionnaire was administered to participants to evaluate general and specific knowledge and awareness of DM. The Pairwise Multiple Comparison and Fisher’s Exact tests were used to test the hypotheses and associations between the respondents’ knowledge level and groups respectively. Of the 132 respondents, 22% were in the age range of 40-46 years; 72.7% were female. Mean over all diabetes knowledge composite score was poor: 32.99% (CI; 27.5, 38.5). Respondents performed best in the symptoms section: mean score was 36.247% (CI; 29.0, 43.4); and worst in the section on complications: mean score was 30.909% (CI; 23.6, 38.2). In multiple linear regression analyses, education level, older age, own self having diabetes, and having a family member/relative/friend with diabetes were significantly associated with knowledge of diabetes. Knowledge of diabetes among the inhabitants of Ho municipality respondents was interpreted as being inadequate 32.99% (CI; 27.5, 38.5). Some deficient portions and factors associated with knowledge of diabetes were identified. Relevant information for targeted health education programs in Ghana and beyond may be considered as one of such benefits of these findings.
Determinants of trade flow of some selected non-traditional agricultural export commodities in Nigeria
Authors:   University of Calabar, Etuk EA , Idem IF
Published: December 2021

This study analysed the determinants of trade flow of some selected non-traditional agricultural export commodities in Nigeria, for the period 2007 to 2017. The objective of the study was to analyse the factors that determine the export of these commodities. The study used trade data of thirty-six importing countries of these commodities around the world. The secondary data used was sourced from various institutions’ databases. A balanced panel data from 36 countries for the years 2007-2017 were used with one dependent variable and ten explanatory variables (a total of n=396, N=36, and T=11); all variables were expressed in natural logarithm. The gravity estimation model was used in data analysis. The Hausman test was used in model selection and the test rejected the null hypothesis (random effects were efficient). Therefore, the fixed effects model was used in the gravity model results’ interpretation. The gravity model results indicate that Nigeria’s export of non-traditional commodities (classified as HS12 in the United Nations International Trade Statistics) follows the basic gravity model apriori expectations, implying that bilateral trade flows will increase in proportion to the trading partner’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and decrease in proportion to the distance involved.The level of openness of Nigeria’s economy and that of the importing countries were major determinants of trade flow of Nigeria’s HS12 commodity exports. This variable carried the expected positive sign for both Nigeria and its trading Partners and was also statistically significant at the 5% level. However, the real exchange rate variable was not a major determinant of HS12 commodity trade. The distance variable was statistically significant indicating the need for regional trade expansion. The dummy variable of the trading partner being an African country was positive and a significant factor in the determinants of the HS12 commodities. However, colonial or official language ties were negatively signed and significant, implying that this was not a major contributor to trade in these commodities. The study recommends that favorable import and export promotion policies and trade openness to boost growth in the quantity of non-traditional exports should form part of government trade policies; and Nigeria should also take advantage of the proposed African Free Trade Area considering the gains she stands to make through proximity in distance.

Authors: Choi Saemi , Kim Young Seo
Published: December 2021

Background: Neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) has a diverse and broad spectrum of severity and prognosis, with some devastating manifestations. However, its diagnosis and treatment remain unclear and controversial. Case Report: A 19-year-old woman with SLE presented with fever, headache, quadriparesis, and tremor. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed sulcal enhancement in the cortical sulcus, and intravenous methylprednisolone (500 mg/day) and immunoglobulin (2 g/kg for 5 days) were started under the suspicion of aseptic lupus meningitis. However, the patient’s neurologic symptoms worsened; brain MRI showed a newly developed brain parenchymal lesion, suggesting lupus cerebritis and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome. Two cycles of rituximab (850 mg/day, 1-week interval) were administered for the treatment of refractory NPSLE. Her neurologic symptoms gradually improved after the second cycle, and she was discharged with minimal neurologic symptoms. Conclusion: Rituximab may be a therapeutic option for refractory lupus cerebritis. Further research is needed to accurately determine its efficacy.

Published: December 2021

Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis causes bacterial wilt and canker disease of tomato. The objectives of this research were i) to characterize and identify the most aggressive Cmm in Chignahuapan, Puebla, ii) to evaluate the tolerance in two phenological stages of 10 tomato varieties to infection by CP_Cmm1 in the greenhouse and the in vitro sensitivity of the bacteria to bactericides. 12 Cmm isolates were collected from tomato plants and a strain (CP_Cmm-1) with greater aggressiveness was selected according to the time of manifestation of symptoms in plants of var. Reserva. Afterward, the strain was inoculated by cutting with scissors embedded in a suspension with 3 x 108 UFC mL-1 in two phenological stages (at five and 10 true leaves). Symptoms were evaluated for 30 days after inoculation. Additionally, the sensitivity of CP_Cmm-1 to eight commercial bactericides in vitro was evaluated. The results showed that the CP_Cmm-1 strain was identified with 97% similarity with the API20 E system, positive with DAS-ELISA, and by PCR it showed 96.6% identity with Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis. The Saher variety showed greater tolerance to infection (* = p?0.05) both in the stage of five and 10 leaves; the varieties Sv4401, Nápoles, and Súper óptimo showed greater susceptibility in the five-leaf stage. The Sv4401 variety was highly susceptible in both stages. Neither variety was resistant to infection by CP_Cmm-1. The use of the Sahel variety and kasugamycin could reduce the damage of this bacteria.

Published: December 2021

The Covid-19 virus is one of the deadliest viruses and kills almost every country. As a precautionary measure, the government provides policies that must be obeyed by all levels of society. According to WHO (World Health Organization) standards, the policy is known as the 5M, namely, wearing masks, washing hands, maintaining distance, reducing and reducing mobility. The policy must be applied to the daily activities of the community. Sidoarjo is one of the cities in the red zone recently. Data shows that there are more than 24.000 cases of COVID-19. For this reason, the Sidoarjo government applies 5M very strictly when people are carrying out worship. When the community does not implement it, the administrators of the place of worship will reprimand and give directions to the community. The result is that people in Jati Village apply 5M, including when carrying out worship such as congregational prayers, Friday prayers, and so on. The mosque management always provides masks for worshipers, as an anticipation for people who lose or forget not to bring masks. The purpose of this research is to analyze the rationality of people who apply 5M when worshiping in Jati Sidoarjo Village. Qualitative method using primary and secondary data sources. The theory used is the theory of Max Weber regarding the action of rationality.

Published: December 2021

The Software Engineering community has identified behavioral specification as one of the main challenges to be addressed for the transference of formal verification techniques such as model checking. In particular, expressivity of the specification language is a key factor, especially when dealing with Open Systems and controllability of events and branching time behavior reasoning. In this work, we propose the Feather Weight Visual Scenarios (FVS) language as an appealing declarative and formal verification tool to specify and synthesize the expected behavior of systems. FVS can express linear and branching properties in closed and Open systems. The validity of our approach is proved by employing FVS in complex, complete, and industrial relevant case studies, showing the flexibility and expressive power of FVS, which constitute the crucial features that distinguish our approach.

Published: December 2021

The purpose of this review was to give the reader an update about the postoperative period and healing outcome after surgical endodontic retreatment. Endodontic surgery has become a standard of care for dental maintenance if conventional endodontic retreatment is not able to eliminate the infection, it is important to know how to manage the post-surgical care, due it might directly interfere in the healing outcome after the surgical procedure. An electronic search of the relevant English-language literature was conducted in the MEDLINE/ PubMed database using the following key-words combinations: Postoperative care; apical surgery; apicoectomy; wound healing. Articles from 1980 to 2011 were included. Based on the results of this present review, the postoperative period after the surgery treatment is very mild, without any complications, being similar to any dental surgical discomfort, as swelling, bleeding and pain, which could be easily controlled with simple medicine. Regarding the repair after endodontic surgery, the length of follow-up time and the healing evaluation criteria affect the outcome, and 1-year follow-up periods might be insufficient to predict a long-term healing.

Published: December 2021

Inorganic sorbents are more selective in comparison with commercial ion exchange resins towards of metal ions. However, inorganic sorbents characterized not high kinetic properties. One of the way to increase the kinetic rate of inorganic sorbents is to reduce the particle size of these materials, other way is synthesizing inorganic sorbents as porous products from powder materials. A sample of such inorganic sorbents is titanium phosphate of various compositions.
Studying the properties of microfilters based on composition titanium phosphate - porous titanium has been developed. The sorbents based on acidic titanium phosphate Ti(HPO4)2∙H2O were used for filtering solution with Fe(II) content. It is found that the number of impregnations with inorganic sorbent modificator is important and influence filtration process. The obtained results demonstrated that after the first impregnation of porous material with a smaller pore size, it is possible to obtain such sorbent as a mass content of powder material. By varying the ionic form of titanium phosphate, the porosity of titanium, the amount of impregnation, it could be possible effect on the sorption Fe(II). The sorption properties of titanium-titanium phosphate microfilters were studied by potentiometric titration in the NaCl-NaOH system, as well as the sorption of Fe2+ ions. The degree of purification for Fe(II) from solution with a concentration of 10 mg/l is 64 %. Application an electric potential to the microfilter of porous titanium - phosphate titanium increases the degree of purification of Fe(II) to 88 %.
Introduction of Russian state judiciary on the territory of Ukraine (end of XVIII – early XIX century)
Authors: Byrkovych O.
Published: December 2021

The article reveals the peculiarities of the implementation of the Russian judicial system in the Hetmanate in the second half of the XVIII - first half of the XIX century. It is pointed out that the incorporation policy of the Russian Empire provided for the full inclusion of Ukrainian lands in the empire, both in administrative and legal aspects. Beginning with the abolition of the institution of the Hetmanate, the regimental-hundred system, the imperial authorities tried to eradicate from life all the legal attributes of the Cossacks, which were traditional for the population and differed from the classical Russian. One of such attributes of statehood was the system of the judiciary and the judiciary. Having determined the specifics and characteristics of the traditional Ukrainian judicial system, which has been implemented in the Hetmanate since the middle of the XVII century, judicial reforms of P. Orlyk, K. Rozumovsky, the peculiarities of the introduction of the Russian class system of justice are established. After the liquidation of the regimental-hundred system and the introduction of division in the provinces, zemstvo (provincial) and county courts began to be established on the territory of Ukraine, which had a wide range of powers and were divided into criminal and civil departments. Zemsky courts were the court of the highest instance and the main appellate body, but decided only cases involving the nobility. The formal election of judges and their subordination to the emperor was a compromise that satisfied both the government and guaranteed the loyalty of the nobility. County courts were under the control of the nobility, which leveled the transparency of decisions. The lowest judiciary was the village courts, which dealt with most economic and administrative issues related to the most vulnerable. The practice of «arbitration» and «conscientious» courts, whose task was to resolve disputes at the pre-trial stage, can be considered a certain positive. They minimized and debureaucratized the judicial system, forming an effective alternative to county courts. Contractual principles in the judiciary, given the existence of about 10 thousand legal acts, some of which were naturally not known to judges, and sometimes contradicted each other, became the key to the stability of the judiciary in the pre-reform period.
Legal nature of state registration as a legal fact in the mechanism of dynamics of property rights
Authors: Hudyma M.
Published: December 2021

This scientific publication attempts to clarify the legal nature of state registration as a legal fact in the mechanism of the dynamics of property rights. There has been made a critical analysis of the viewpoint of supporters of the recognition of the right-establishing character of the state registration and the viewpoint of scholars who consider that the state registration has the function of confirmation, legalization of already established rights. The legislative approach to the relevant issues, which reveals the inconsistency of regulations on the place and importance of state registration in the mechanism of the dynamics of property rights is analyzed. The root of all disagreements and inconsistencies is seen in the desire to take a clear position that the state registration performs only one function: either statutory or confirmatory, while the possibility of simultaneous performance of these two functions was not practically considered.It is substantiated that the legal nature of state registration is quite heterogeneous. If we talk about the property and legal significance of the act of state registration, then for the parties to the contract or other direct participants in the relative legal relationship aimed at the transfer of property rights to real estate, it will have a confirmatory value, and for third parties in absolute legal relations it will be of legal significance, providing a proof of this fact known. If we consider the state registration from the point of view of the dynamics of the process of transfer of property rights, to determine its role in this mechanism, it is the final legal fact in the legal structure, which entails the emergence of a new right holder. The publication emphasizes that giving state registration the importance of the final legal fact in the legal structure that causes the transition of property right we should not, however, shift the emphasis and consider it a priority legal fact in comparison with others. Although the registration of property rights is mandatory, it is secondary to the mechanism of transfer of ownership and other property rights to real estate, because it loses any sense and is absolutely impossible without the occurrence of other legal facts, including – the conclusion of a contract (real or consensual).

We are faced with the task of making every effort to support social workers, and provide them with opportunities for safe activities in the provision of services. The article considers the functions and principles on which the organization of social workers in counteracting the pandemic is based. Aspects related to problems and risks in their activities are also considered. It is also important to develop priority actions in the context of their protection against infection. Due to the fact that the pandemic situation is constantly changing, there are changes in the priorities of action, there are also changes in the protocols of organization and provision of social assistance. In addition, the availability of testing, the level of health risks and the ethical consequences of social services interventions in situations related to social problems in families affected by the pandemic are assessed. This is based on the International Declaration of Ethical Principles for Social Work of the International Federation of Social Workers (IFSW). The article considers the level of vulnerability of a social worker, client or population to severe clinical symptoms and increased risk of death from infection. The context of new challenges also considers models of remote service delivery and situations in which this is not possible. It is proposed for social workers to conduct training sessions and conduct regular remote supervision of their activities during their response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Social workers are invited to create plans for social and psychological protection and self-care.
