A inclusão e a reserva de vagas para a pessoa com deficiência no ensino superior
Authors: Mendes Fátima Aparecida Gonçalves
Published: March 2022

O presente artigo pretende apresentar tratados e legislações relacionadas à pessoa com deficiência no que tange a inclusão e a reserva de vagas. Para abordar essas questões no ensino superior é preciso pensar como vem sendo tratada na educação básica. A partir da luta dos grupos de pessoas com deficiência, o olhar, na construção das leis, foi se voltando para a necessidade de inclusão e atividades direcionadas a esses indivíduos. A discussão sobre o tema da “inclusão” no âmbito da educação básica já ocorre há algum tempo, mas no âmbito do ensino superior é recente. A reserva de vagas está garantida por Lei, mas é necessária a discussão com relação ao acesso, permanência e o prosseguimento de estudos da pessoa com deficiência no ensino superior. Para atender a demanda a palavra-chave é acessibilidade, bem como também pensarmos na barreira atitudinal que é o grande entrave na questão da inclusão.
A cor da psicologia: um estudo sobre o Estado da Arte da psicologia sobre branquitude
Authors: Ramos Márcia Ribeiro , Carvalho Liandra Lima
Published: March 2022

O presente trabalho surgiu a partir das indagações realizadas pelas autoras acerca do posicionamento da psicologia brasileira frente ao combate ao racismo. A metodologia utilizada foi o Estado da Arte, que se propõe a um caráter inventariante e descritivo da produção acadêmica e científica da Psicologia sobre Branquitude no Brasil, de dissertações e teses presentes nos bancos de dados da Capes, da BDTD, do Domínio Público e do Google Acadêmico no período de 2003 a 2018. Conclui que a psicologia brasileira continua perpetuando o racismo, por meio de uma formação hegemônica, baseada em um modelo único de ser humano.
Menyelamatkan Korban dari Jerat UU ITE: Studi Kasus Baiq Nuril Maknun dan Relevansinya Bagi Penguatan Peran Pemerintah Melindungi Pelapor Tindak Asusila
Authors: Diniyanto Ayon , Kamalludin Iqbal Kamalludin
Published: March 2022

Permasalahan yang terjadi pada Baiq Nuril Maknun (BNM) mendapat respon yang kuat dab beragam dari masyarakat. Satu sisi menganggap permasalahan BNM adalah pelanggaran terhadap UU ITE. Disisi lain, permasalahan yang dihadapi oleh BNM adalah korban pelecehan seksual. Artikel ini merupakan studi kasus pada BNM. Paper ini fokus pada peran pemerintah dalam melindungi secara hukum pelapor dan korban tindak asusila sehingga korban terlindungi dan terhindar dari kriminalisasi. Penelitian yurisdis normatif ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa pelaku  tindak pidana asusila memanfaatkan celah hukum UU ITE sehingga justru membuat BNM menjadi bersalah sesuai konteks hukum formal, meskipun dalam hal ini sebenarnya BNM dapat tidak terjerat UU ITE apabila ada peran pemerintah dalam membangun norma hukum dalam UU ITE. Peran pemerintah yang lebih kuat tersebut yaitu dengan membuat mekanisme pelaporan yang mudah dan efektif. Pemerintah juga harus membuat pedoman mekanisme pelaporan yang tersosialisasi menyeluruh, mudah diakses, dan mudah dipahami. Lebih penting lagi, pemerintah harus melindungi pelapor selama kedudukan pelapor masih menjadi pelapor, saksi, atau korban.
Deconstruction of Landreform Policy in Indonesia (Study of Regulation of President Number 86 Of 2018 about Agrarian Reforms)
Authors: Alan Muhammad Fikri
Published: March 2022

There is a large gap between the regulation of Land Reform in the UUPA, with Presidential Regulation No. 86 of 2014 concerning Agrarian Reform. On one hand, the UUPA states that Land Reform is a systematic effort by the state to rearrange ownership, control, and access to land. Whereas on the other hand, the Presidential Regulation stipulates that Land Reform is equated with Agrarian Reform, and the scope of the arrangement covers the arrangement of access and arrangement of assets. Nevertheless, this Perpres then only means Landreform merely as the legalization of assets, which is part of the structuring of assets. One thing that is very different from the UUPA version of Landreform. This study aims to uncover the causes of the gap, and formulate an ideal form of regulation. This study uses the normative juridical method, with the statutory approach and the conceptual approach. The results of this study are first, the difference in regulation is caused by the two legal products born from different features or characteristics. The Perpres on Agrarian Reform was born in a regime that tends to be instrumentalist liberalism, while the UUPA was born from a legal regime that tends to be socialistic-communal. Second, there are at least 2 things that need to be fixed in the Landreform settings. First, the affirmation of the state's position in implementing Landreform, whether to continue to use the instrumentalist, socialistic-communal liberalistic model, or the conception of a welfare state that is native to Indonesia. Second, TORA must be the object of Land Procurement for Public Interest. Thus, Landreform activities can become the main national agenda and must be carried out.
La violencia de la positividad como mutilación ontológica un acercamiento a la filosofía de Byung-ChuL Han
Authors: Mazo Gaviria Maicol , Restrepo Tamayo Juan Camilo
Published: March 2022

Un atento repaso por la concepción de la violencia chulhaniana en el contexto de las formas tradicionales que han estudiado este fenómeno social permite exponer con mayor detalle y claridad esta propuesta en cuanto a la relación con el otro se refiere. Cuando lo sucedido durante el colonialismo que azotó al mundo en el transcurso de los siglos XVIII y XIX se asumía como las más peligrosas acciones cometidas en procura de la supresión de las características propias de cada uno, en la medida en que los fenómenos de invasión suprimían materialmente la diferencia que poblaba el mundo, apareció la violencia de la positividad como la disposición sistémica que parte de la libertad y el consentimiento individual para, tácitamente, eliminar cualquier tipo de sentido de otredad presente en su constitución.
Mobile Livings: On the Bioeconomies of Mobility
Authors: Achtnich Marthe
Published: March 2022

This Colloquy brings into conversation two terms critical for an anthropological inquiry into our present condition: mobility and bioeconomy. It moves beyond established accounts of the bioeconomy based on biotechnology and biomedicine to draw attention to the tempo, intensity, and reach of the economization of mobile life across diverse scales and domains. Case studies include emerging forms of surveillance and bordering regimes that generate profit from the vitality and vulnerability of mobile life. They also entail the escalation of certain mobilities and the halting of others, not only demonstrating how value travels and is remade as it crosses boundaries of different kinds but also revealing how life’s disposability can make for a precondition for trading in life itself. Rethinking and extending conventional political economic analyses, the Colloquy offers new directions for anthropological understandings of economy and mobility.
Bioeconomy and Migrants’ Lives in Libya
Authors: Achtnich Marthe
Published: March 2022

This essay examines how a bioeconomy might be understood in a context of fragmented state authority in Libya, where mobilities are commodified by different actors, but not always tethered to a state-centric biopolitics of managing migration. It focuses on the unauthorized journeys of migrants moving through Libya and onward by boat to Europe. In this context, economies tapping into human vitality can be clandestine, where lines between state and criminal actors, as well as the value and disposability of life, become blurred. They are also contingent on intimate relations between migrants—proximities and labors of care through which mobile lives are reproduced and from which various predatory economic formations profit. Moving beyond the Foucauldian biopolitics that often inform studies of migration, security, and the state, ethnographic attention to value generation and extraction in the borderlands foregrounds economic relations as sets of intersecting practices in which mobile life and its disposability constitute a vital thread.
EU-Driven Border Control in Niger: From Migrants to Gold, Drugs, and Rare Animals
Authors: Lucht Hans
Published: March 2022

The Agadez province in northern Niger, a nucleus for trans-Saharan migration to Libya, has in recent years been at the forefront of Europe’s interventions to curb migration movements on the African continent. This essay discusses the transmutations of the cross-border economy in the wake of EU pressure and its implications for local lifeworlds. Trade and smuggling networks have shown resilience and adaptability in the face of the EU-driven crackdown on migration, but often at the cost of migrant safety. Border practices of the EU create situations where migrants are increasingly subject to predatory economic practices that consequently serve as necropolitical deterrence. At the same time, the cross-border economy is increasingly turning to other commodities to which Libya’s European partners are less sensitive, such as gold, synthetic opioids, and rare animals.
A Wild Boar Chase: Ecology of Harm and Half-Life Politics in Coastal Fukushima
Authors: Morimoto Ryo
Published: March 2022

This article explores how the Japanese state’s radiation-centered approach to ecological redress in postfallout costal Fukushima impacts a local framework of relationality called en/縁. By ethnographically tracing encounters between humans and wild boars in the region through an ecosemiotic lens, the essay articulates the differences and tensions between en and the model of relationality that the government’s decontamination policy enforces. In so doing, I decenter and unsettle the dominance of biomedically oriented, anxiety-driven toxic discourses of radiological threat. Against the narratives of anthropocentric exposure and nuclear victimhood that tend to encircle Fukushima since the nuclear accident, the article illuminates the multiscalar and semiotic issue that decontamination efforts catalyze. The essay argues that narrowly defining safety in terms of distancing radioisotopes from humans engages what I call a half-life politics of nuclear things, through which locals, wild boars, and the land itself are made complicit in the production of nuclear waste. 

要旨

東日本大震災と大津波に起因する東京電力福島第一原子力発電事故は地域の環境、さらに人と自然との関わりに甚大な影響を及した。事故後耕作放棄地となった土地には野生動物が進出し、汚染された作物を食べ被曝し、原発避難民のスムーズな帰還や、帰宅民の生活を脅かしている。この論文は福島県浜通り地域に出没するイノシシと、それに日々対応する南相馬、相馬市民との震災後の関係性を追い、日本政府による測定可能な放射線の有無に特化した環境除染政策がもたらす『縁』という世界観への影響を考察する。さまざまの物事を分断し続けている原子力災害を『縁』という万物のつながりの視点からアプローチすることにより、人間と放射性物質の関係性を生物的ダメージに特化して語るフォールアウト関連の学術的思考や、事故後の政策に見られる科学技術、汚染中心の『半減期的政治』とは異なる人と自然との関係性の考え方の重要性を示し、人間のみの被曝を減らす環境除染政策の問題点を論じる。

Agency, social relations, and order: Media sociology’s shift into the digital
Authors: Hepp Andreas
Published: March 2022

Until the end of the last century, media sociology was synonymous with the investigation of mass media as a social domain. Today, media sociology needs to address a much higher level of complexity, that is, a deeply mediatized world in which all human practices, social relations, and social order are entangled with digital media and their infrastructures. This article discusses this shift from a sociology of mass communication to the sociology of a deeply mediatized world. The principal aim of the article is to outline a newmedia-sociological imagination: media sociology as a cross-sectional sociology, a sociology of entanglement, and a new critical sociology of technological deep structures.

Linear-to-linear polarization conversion using metasurface for X, Ku and K band applications
Authors: Roy Komal , Sinha Rashmi , Barde Chetan
Published: March 2022

Ultra thin wideband metasurface polarization converter is presented in this paper. The proposed structure is used for linear conversion i.e., X polarized to Y polarized and vice versa. The design of the structure consists of stair case shaped and is fabricated on FR-4 substrate having overall dimension of 3 mm × 3 mm. The Polarization Conversion Ratio (PCR) obtained is wideband having bandwidth of 10.81 GHz (10.57–21.38 GHz) above 89%. Two distinct peaks are observed in the range of interest having frequencies at 11.66 and 18.13 GHz with maximum magnitude of 99.30 and 99.90%. These two peaks occur due to plasmonic resonance. At these two peaks, surface current distribution is plotted to explain the wideband response from the structure. The structure is simulated using commercially available ANSYS HFSS 19.1 and measured inside an anechoic chamber with the help of Vector Network Analyser (VNA). The proposed structure find applications for X (8–12 GHz), Ku (18–21 GHz) and K (21–27 GHz) band. At last the structure is measured with already reported polarization converters and find practical applications for frequency reconfigurable antennas, linearly conversion of incident waves, etc.

Published: March 2022

Little is known about the role of chronic gastritis on weight loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). This study aims to investigate the relationship between histopathologic findings of gastric specimens, excess weight loss (% EWL), and excess BMI loss (% EBL) at 6 and 12 months follow up after LSG. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical records of 95 patients who had undergone LSG between January 2017 and December 2019. Based on the histopathological findings of gastric resection specimens, patients were divided into those with chronic gastritis (CG) and those without chronic gastritis (NoCG) and compared for their % EWL and % EBL at 6 and 12 months. The mean BMI was 44.74 kg/m2 in the CG group and 44.14 kg/m2 in the NoCG group. At 6 months follow up, the CG group had a mean % EWL of 45.7 and % EBL of 40.5, while NoCG had a mean % EWL of 51.1 and % EBL of 46.7. After 1-year follow-up, the CG group had a mean % EWL of 53.1 and a % EBL of 44.8, while the NoCG group had a % EWL of 54.1 and % EBL of 44. This observational study does not support the hypothesis that the occurrence of chronic gastritis can affect postoperative % EWL and % EBL.
Evaluation of menstrual irregularities after COVID-19 vaccination: Results of the MECOVAC survey
Authors: Laganà Antonio Simone , Veronesi Giovanni , Ghezzi Fabio , Ferrario Marco Mario , Cromi Antonella , Bizzarri Mariano , Garzon Simone , Cosentino Marco
Published: March 2022

We investigated menstrual irregularities after the first and second doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. Women answered a customised online questionnaire (ClinicalTrial.gov ID: NCT05083065) aimed to assess the vaccine type, the phase of the menstrual cycle during which the vaccine was administered, the occurrence of menstrual irregularities after the first and second doses, and how long this effect lasted. We excluded women with gynaecological and non-gynaecological diseases, undergoing hormonal and non-hormonal treatments, in perimenopause or menopause, as well as those who had irregular menstrual cycles in the last 12 months before vaccine administration. According to our data analysis, approximately 50–60% of reproductive-age women who received the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine reported menstrual cycle irregularities, regardless of the type of administered vaccine. The occurrence of menstrual irregularities seems to be slightly higher (60–70%) after the second dose. Menstrual irregularities after both the first and second doses of the vaccine were found to self-resolve in approximately half the cases within two months. Based on these results, we suggest to consider these elements during the counselling of women who receive the COVID-19 vaccine, letting them know about the potential occurrence of temporary and self-limiting menstrual cycle irregularities in the subsequent month(s).
Prueba de hipótesis de la curva ambiental de Kuznets para residuos sólidos urbanos en municipios del Estado de México e Hidalgo 2010-2018
Authors: Flores-Xolocotzi Ramiro , Ceballos Pérez Sergio Gabriel
Published: March 2022

Se realizó una prueba de la hipótesis de curva de Kuznets para residuos sólidos urbanos per cápita en 208 municipios del Estado de México e Hidalgo en cinco periodos de tiempo (2010-2018). Se emplearon como variables independientes el producto interno bruto (PIB) y la densidad poblacional (DP) municipal. Los datos se transformaron con logaritmos naturales. Se hicieron estimaciones por efectos fijos. Empero, para autocorrelación y heterocedasticidad, se recurrió a los métodos de Prais-Winsten y mínimos cuadrados generalizados factibles. Aunque la literatura recomienda Prais-Winsten para tiempos cortos, no hay consenso a favor de algún método. Mediante Prais-Winsten no se encontró relación significativa entre residuos y PIB. En comparación, con el método generalizado se encontró una relación lineal positiva. En ambos métodos la densidad es positivamente significativa. Se concluye que no hay evidencia de curva de Kuznets; no obstante, futuras investigaciones deberán estudiar la curva en más municipios mexicanos.
Psychoanalysis, Trauma, and Giorgio Agamben
Authors: LaMothe Ryan
Published: March 2022

The author uses the work of Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben to reimagine the meaning and dynamics of trauma, as well as psychoanalysis as a process that remedies, in part, traumatic experiences. More particularly, trauma is conceptualized in terms of Agamben's notions of potentiality, singularity/suchness, and inoperativity, although these are inflected from psychosocial developmental and political perspectives. This provides a way to bridge the idea of individual trauma with the larger political milieu's apparatuses that can be systemically traumatizing, as seen in the social death of racism. This reframing of trauma leads to reconceiving the process of therapy as rendering inoperative memories of trauma and, in some cases, traumainducing apparatuses, while, in part, mending the dialectical and paradoxical tension between potentiality and actuality that is necessary for socialpolitical agency and experiences of singularity.
High Fidelity Theta Phase Rolling of CA1 Neurons
Authors: Sloin Hadas E. , Levi Amir , Someck Shirly , Spivak Lidor , Stark Eran
Published: March 2022

Single hippocampal cells encode the spatial position of an animal by increasing their firing rates within “place fields,” and by shifting the phase of their spikes to earlier phases of the ongoing theta oscillations (theta phase precession). Whether other forms of spatial phase changes exist in the hippocampus is unknown. Here, we used high-density electrophysiological recordings in mice of either sex running back and forth on a 150-cm linear track. We found that the instantaneous phase of spikes shifts to progressively later theta phases as the animal traverses the place field. We term this shift theta “phase rolling.” Phase rolling is opposite in direction to precession, faster than precession, and occurs between distinct theta cycles. Place fields that exhibit phase rolling are larger than nonrolling fields, and in-field spikes occur in distinct theta phases in rolling compared with nonrolling fields. As a phase change associated with position, theta phase rolling may be used to encode space.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTTheta phase precession is a well-known coding scheme in which neurons represent the position of the animal by the timing of their spikes with respect to the phase of ongoing theta oscillations. Here, we show that hippocampal neurons also undergo “theta phase rolling,” a phase change faster and opposite in direction to precession. As the animal advances in space, spikes occur at progressively later phases of consecutive theta cycles. Future studies may reveal whether phase rolling constitutes a novel coding mechanism of space.
THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT MALT FLOURS ON RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF DOUGH
Authors: KARAOĞLU Mehmet Murat , REİS Gül Seda , GERÇEKASLAN Kamil
Published: March 2022

The present work explored the effect of malt flours obtained from different grains (wheat, barley, rye, triticale, millet, maize, rice, oat) on rheology, fermentation and pasting properties of wheat dough. Malt flour and commercial enzyme added to bread flour decreased peak viscosity and peak temperature values measured in Amylograph. Wheat, rye and oat malt flours provided the best result, respectively, in terms of farinogram properties of flour samples such as water absorption, development time, dough stability, degree of softening and mixing tolerance index. In general, the addition of malt flour increased the extensibility of the dough, while lowering the dough resistance and dough energy. Oats, rice and corn malt positively affected the fermentation properties of the dough such as gas holding power, maximum dough height and gas escape point. It is possible to say that wheat malt gave the best results in terms of pressure, extensibility and energy values obtained by dough inflation analysis. When all the data obtained from the study were taken into consideration, it was seen that the use of malt flour as the enzyme source gave better results compared to the commercial enzyme in terms of dough rheological properties. It has been concluded that wheat malt gives the best results in terms of all dough properties.
COMPARISON OF POLLEN MORPHOLOGIES EXAMINATION OF SOME Rhododendron SPECIES - PLANT SOURCE OF MAD HONEY
Authors: ÖZKÖK Aslı , MAYDA Nazlı , ECEM BAYRAM Nesrin
Published: March 2022

Honey is one of the important natural products used for apitherapeutic purposes as well as food consumption. The authenticity of the products to be used for apitherapy is very important. Botanical origin is one of the most critical factors affecting the characterization of bee products, especially honey. Therefore, melissopalynological analysis is essential in honey samples. In this study, the pollen morphologies of four different Rhododendron taxa, the origin of the monofloral "Mad honey" used for apitherapeutic purposes in Turkey, were examined. Five different measurement parameters have been used to investigate the pollen morphology of the plants. As a result, it can be said that pollen morphology has an important place in confirming the botanical origin of “Mad honey”.

Infant language development includes a complex social dynamic between adults and infants. Infant vocalization is a well-studied area of development, however adult perception of infant vocalization is less well-understood. The effectiveness of identifications made by adults may impact the social feedback loops that drive development. We collected data from a final sample of 460 undergraduate students who listened to brief (100-500 ms) audio clips of infant vocalization. Participants were asked to identify infants in the audio clips as male/female, English/non-English, and their approximate age. Participants were unable to determine the sex of the infant better than chance but showed better than chance performance for language and age, albeit with low accuracy. Exploratory follow-up analyses did not reveal an effect of caregiving experience, childcare experience, or participant gender on a participants’ ability to correctly identify the infant’s age, sex, or language. These findings suggest that adult caregivers, regardless of experience, are able to perceive elements of infant vocalizations that may influence responsiveness to infant vocal development. However, performance is far from perfect.

Introduction: Long-term data on gender-related outcomes after transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TF-TAVI) using newer generations heart valves in lower-risk patients are sparse. We aimed to evaluate gender-dependent long-term outcomes after TF-TAVI in lower-risk patients using the third-generation balloon expandable bioprosthesis.
Methods: Data of 103 patients undergoing TF-TAVI using the third-generation balloon expandable bioprosthesis were analyzed. We conducted up to six years follow up and performed comparison on gender basis: men (45 patients; 82 ± 4.7 years; STS Score 3.7 ± 1.6%) vs. women (58 patients; 83.2 ± 4.5 years; STS Score 3.6 ± 1.8%). The mean follow-up time was 30 months.
Results: Cardiovascular risk factors at baseline were similar, without significant differences between men and women. The 30-day mortality was 4.4% in men vs. 3.4% in women (P = 0.745). The 30-day stroke was 4.4% in men vs. 1.7% in women (P = 0.582). The major vascular injury rate and the pacemaker rate was 2.3% vs. 10.7% (P = 0.134) and 19.5% vs. 18.9% (P = 1) in men vs. women, respectively. There was a significant difference of mean long-term survival: men, 42.1 months [95%CI: 33.154–51.101] vs. women, 57.3 months [95%CI: 50.618–64.159], P = 0.015.
Conclusion: Although considerably more prone to procedural complications, women had a significantly long-term survival benefit after TF-TAVI in lower-risk patients despite similar baseline characteristics.

El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la prueba de inmunoelectrotransferencia blot (EITB) en el diagnóstico serológico de la hidatidosis ovina. Se trabajó con 80 ovinos Corriedale de la SAIS Pachacútec, Junín, Perú y se comparó los resultados con la necropsia (Gold estándar). La presencia simultánea de tres bandas antigénicas (8, 16 y 21 kDa) en el EITB fueron consideradas como un resultado positivo, en tanto que el resultado a la necropsia fue positivo si existía al menos un quiste a nivel del hígado o de los pulmones. El EITB evidenció una baja sensibilidad (31.2%) y una alta especificidad (100%). Así mismo, se obtuvieron valores predictivo positivo (VPP) y negativo (VPN) de 100 y 5.4%, respectivamente, pero sin asociación significativa (p=0.55) entre el resultado de la prueba y la presencia de quistes. Para determinar la utilidad del EITB en la detección de quistes activos, se consideró como positivo la presencia de al menos una banda antigénica y como quiste activo (infección activa) a aquella estructura que por sus condiciones macroscópicas podría contener células capaces de proliferar en condiciones adecuadas. Los resultados mostraron una alta sensibilidad (93.6%) de la prueba para identificar lesiones quísticas activas con VPP de 60.3% y VPN de 57.1%, aunque los resultados no fueron estadísticamente significativos (p=0.439). Los hallazgos evidencian que la reacción de la prueba de EITB no necesariamente es más sensible cuando hay presencia de quistes activos.

Coccidiosis is the most important intestinal parasitic disease of broiler chickens in poultry industry. Because of the increasing resistance to anticoccidial agents and presence of their residues in meat and eggs, it is necessary to find safe and new anticoccidial compounds. This study was conducted to compare the effects of two herbal compounds, including Artemisia sieberi and Curcuma longa, and their mix with a chemical anticoccidial drug on broilers’ performance during a mixed coccidian challenge. A total of 216, one-day-old Ross 308 broilers were randomly divided into six groups. Different herbal extracts and one chemical anticoccidial agent were used in each group. Five groups were infected with a mixture of Eimeria sporulated oocysts at the age of 21 days with crop gavage. Body weight and feed intake were measured then feed conversion ratio was calculated on a weekly basis. Mortality was recorded when occurred throughout the experimental period. Oocysts excretions and lesion scores were investigated weekly up to three weeks after infection. Eimeria-challenged birds had a reduction in growth parameters compared to the uninfected birds (P<0.001); the best performance values were recorded for the groups treated with a mix of two herbal extracts and amprolium ethopabate (P<0.05). The groups treated with herbal extracts had a significantly reduced oocyst excretion per gram of faeces compared to the positive control group. Lesion score of the amprolium ethopabate group was better than those of the other groups. As a conclusion, herbal extracts, especially a mix of them, could be effective in controlling coccidiosis and its complications.

n experiment was performed with a total of 280 one-day old SPF broiler chicks to evaluate the effects of probiotics, alone or in combination, on growth performance, gut morphometry and immune response to fowl cholera vaccination. The birds were randomly divided into seven groups each of 40 chicks and the experiment lasted for 42 days. The probiotic microorganisms that were offered via water included Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Enterococcus faecium, Bacillus subtilis and Saccharomyces cervisiae. Significant increase in the food conversion rate was recorded in group 4 that received probiotic mixture composed of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bacillus subtilis. Also, significantly high geometric mean titre (GMT) of P. multocida specific-antibodies and lowest morbidity and mortality rates post P. multocida challenge were recorded in this group. The effect of different probiotics on the morphometric changes in the gut tissues was determined, where significant increase in the duodenal and ileum villus height and average crypt depth were recorded in probiotic treated chicks compared to the negative control. The increase in the gut villi height is proved to be associated with increased absorption capability of nutients from the intestine.

Authors: Farley Jonathan David
Published: March 2022

Proctor and Scoppetta conjectured that

(1) there exists an infinite locally finite poset that satisfies their conditions VT and NTC but not SIS;

(2) there exists an infinite locally finite poset satisfying their conditions D3-C and D3MF but not both VT and FT; and

(3) there exists an infinite locally finite poset satisfying their conditions D3-C and D3MD but not NCC.

In this note, the conjecture of Proctor and Scoppetta, which is related to d-complete posets, is proven.

Authors: Alcala Chelsea , Corwin Melinda , Kroll Tobias , Whitaker Melissa
Published: March 2022

Purpose: In group therapy, participant engagement is integral for achieving effective and meaningful interactions. Engagement is necessary not only for ensuring participation in the group, but also for promoting overall life engagement. Although engagement is vital to group therapy, it has remained largely unstudied, particularly in treatment for persons with primary progressive aphasia.

Methods: Using samples from a videotaped small group interaction involving two graduate student clinicians and two persons with primary progressive aphasia, conversational actions contributing to engagement were identified and analyzed via content analysis and principles of conversation analysis.

Results: Conversational actions resulting in engagement included clinician-appointed turns, participant affirmation, and member support. These conversational actions were found to maintain and/or increase wavering levels of participant engagement.

Discussion: Findings for the study yielded clinical applications for clinician promotion of engagement during small group interactions involving persons with primary progressive aphasia to increase participant involvement and maximize therapeutic outcomes.

The Human Factor in the Hungarian Business Services Sector Development in Comparison with Regional Competitors
Authors: Gál Zoltán , Marciniak Robert
Published: March 2022

Objective: The Hungarian Business Services Sector (BSS) is an important part of the CEE business services market. As this market is not homogenous, Hungary is in several aspects different from the other regional countries. The study aims to examine the market position of the Hungarian Business Services Centres (BSC) in the Central and Eastern European region with special attention paid to the available human resources and the comparison of its advantages and disadvantages with that of Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania, and Bulgaria as the main competitors.
Research Design & Methods: The research is based on literature review and statistical comparison made using databases of international and national business services associations and national statistical organisations.
Findings: First, the study explores the literature on the development of the global, regional, and Hungarian BSS. Then, through a comparative statistical analysis, it presents the situation of the Hungarian market within the CEE region. The development of the region’s business services sectors was unbroken between 2015 and 2020, but there was a downward trend as to growth in most countries in terms of the number of employees.
Implications/Recommendations: The study underlines the significance of intrinsic labour market and spatial distribution factors in the competition for business services investments, as well as it reveals how these factors influence the development paths of the countries under scrutiny.
Contribution/Value Added: Different growth trajectories can be explained by different quantitative, qualitative, and spatial distributions of human resources. However, the study not only sheds light on regional disparities, but also helps to overcome inequalities, thereby recommending more effective investment promotion and human resource development policies.
