Published: January 2025

Introduction: Uric acid (C5H4N4O3) is a product of purine degradation and can act as a pro-oxidant substance because of the formation of ROS through the enzymatic activity of xanthine oxidase. Previous research has shown that uric acid can affect lipid metabolism in the body. Purpose: This study aims to explore the relationship between lipid profiles in MCU patients and uric acid levels. This study employs a cross-sectional design, and we will analyze the data using linear regression. Methods: This study is an observational analytic study without intervention, using a cross-sectional study design. The research data came from secondary data, especially the medical records of MCU patients. Researchers selected the study sample using a random sampling technique. The study uses 86 secondary data samples. Results: Linear regression analysis reveals a significant positive correlation between uric acid and triglycerides (p-value < 0.001 and r = 0.464), total cholesterol (p-value = 0.018 and r = 0.255), and LDL (p-value = 0.011 and r = 0.273). A significant negative correlation exists between uric acid levels and HDL (p-value < 0.001 and r = 0.477). Increased uric acid levels are associated with higher levels of TG, TC, and LDL, as well as a decrease in HDL levels. The average levels of LDL and total cholesterol are 140.27 mg/dl and 206.66 mg/dl, respectively, which are at the high threshold, while all other variables are within normal limits.

EFFICIENCY OF FERTILIZERS AND PLANTS PROTECTION AGROCHEMICALS INTEGRATED APPLICATION IN CULTURING SPRING RAPE IN THE ALTAI REGION CONDITIONS
Authors: Stecov Grigoriy , Peshkov Sergey , Sadovnikov Georgiy
Published: January 2025

The purpose of research is to study the influence and interaction of chemical protection agents (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides) and nitrogen fertilizers on the productivity of spring rapeseed. Research was carried out to improve the system for protecting spring rapeseed from a complex of pests at different levels of nitrogen nutrition in 2014–2016. During the growing season of the crop, pests such as rapeseed sawfly, cabbage moth, cruciferous bugs, and rapeseed flower beetle were identified. The EPV was exceeded only in terms of the number of rapeseed flower beetle. The application of nitrogen fertilizers contributed to an increase in the competitiveness of the crop, which is reflected in a decrease in the amount of weed component and its mass and resistance to phytophages. The rapeseed flower beetle prefers less developed and more weedy crops. The biological effectiveness of the insecticide against the background of fertilizers was higher and amounted to 89.6 %, and against the background without fertilizers it was 88.1 %. In the variant without fertilizers and protective agents, there were 234.4 pieces/m2 of weeds; in the variant with fertilizer there were 186.9 pieces/ m2, 20.3 % lower compared to the unfertilized background. The herbicides used on an unfertilized background (“Zellek Super” tank mixture, EC – 0.5 l/ha + “Galera Super 364”, VR – 0.3 l/ha) effectively suppressed the weed component – from 81.2 to 83.4 %. On a fertilized background, the effectiveness of herbicides was higher and varied from 92.4 to 94.3 %. The crops were treated against diseases after the first signs of Alternaria brassicae blight appeared on the lower leaves of the rapeseed. However, during the years of research, no further development of the disease was observed. As a result of the use of modern plant protection products against the background of nitrogen fertilizers, significant increases in the yield of spring rapeseed (0.23–0.58 t/ha) were obtained. Of the studied elements of the agricultural complex, the most significant factor was the application of nitrogen fertilizers, which ensured an increase in yield by 62.8 % without protective equipment. The maximum yield increase of 1.48 t/ha (112 %) was ensured by the use of complex protection against the background of nitrogen fertilizers.
MORPHOFUNCTIONAL AND BIOELECTRIC CHARACTERISTICS OF SOME MUSCLES OF THE WRIST JOINT IN A DOG: PILOT STUDY
Authors: Badanova Emma , Zubareva Ekaterina
Published: January 2025

The paper presents the morphofunctional characteristics of some muscles of the dog's wrist joint, as well as their bioelectrical characteristics. The purpose of the study is to describe the bioelectrical characteristics of the radial and ulnar extensor carpi of the dog, taking into account the morphofunctional characteristics of these muscles. Objectives of the study: to conduct a morphological and electrophysiological study of the radial and ulnar extensor wrist muscles in dogs; identify patterns of EMG formation depending on the internal structure and innervation of muscles, and conduct a comparative assessment of the morphological and bioelectrical characteristics of the muscles being studied. Research was carried out at the Department of Anatomy, Histology, Physiology and Pathological Anatomy of the Omsk State Agrarian University named after P.A. Stolypin (Omsk). As a result of the studies, it was revealed that the innervation of the muscle fibers of the dog’s extensor carpi ulnaris and radialis has a similar, group character, that is, groups of muscle fibers have a large number of motor units. These groups are reflected on the EMG as separate complexes. An individual set of action potentials in the EMG signal pattern has duration of 0.01–0.014 s and a frequency of 600–800 Hz. The length of the muscle bundles inboth muscles is different: for the extensor carpi ulnaris it is 0.5 cm, for the radial one, respectively, 3.5 cm. Thus, it was found that the characteristics of the innervation and internal structure of the muscle affect the pattern of the EMG signal. The influence of muscle structure by the type of feathering and the length of muscle fibers (in feathery muscles) was not revealed. Thus, the resulting pattern (pattern) of the EMG signal is characteristic of statodynamic muscles. The proposed model of EMG signal formation, as a result of further development, will have the prospect of being used for qualitative and quantitative interpretation and assessment of the functional state of the neuromuscular system in animals and humans.

Published: January 2025

The use of alternative types of carbohydrate-containing raw materials to produce distillates is quite common throughout the world. These technologies are usually used to produce drinks with original organoleptic characteristics. Jerusalem artichoke (Heliantustuberosus) is a perennial crop that is used as a raw material for a wide range of products. Today, the most common use of Jerusalem artichoke is to obtain inulin, as well as for feed and fuel purposes. However, there is experience in processing Jerusalem artichoke to produce distillates and alcohol. In addition, Jerusalem artichoke is rich in dietary fiber and vitamins, which allows it to be used comprehensively: for the production of alcohol, as well as functional food and feed products. Jerusalem artichoke is unpretentious, disease-resistant, and also has a high yield, which reaches up to 130 tons of tubers per hectare. The paper provides an overview of the use of Jerusalem artichoke for various purposes. The current and promising market for its application is analyzed. Existing technologies for its processing to obtain various commercial products are considered. The topic of obtaining distillates and alcohol from dried intermediate products obtained from Jerusalem artichoke is touched upon. Examples of the use of Jerusalem artichoke distillates in recipes for the production of alcoholic beverages in different regions of the world are given. The use of Jerusalem artichoke as a source of carbohydrates in the production of distillates or alcohol today is a real prospect for reducing costs and creating alcoholic beverages with original organoleptic characteristics.

This research analyzed the mechanical properties of reinforcing steel bars used in Nigeria and compared them to four different standards (AISI 1018, ASTM A706, BS4449, and NST-65-Mn). This was done as a result of frequent building collapses in Nigeria, which has revealed the knowledge gap between what the designers expect and the true mechanical properties of the products they typically receive from manufacturers. Related literature from published articles was collected and analyzed based on the mechanical properties of locally produced and imported steels. Results showed that the tensile strength, yield strength, hardness, percentage elongation, and percentage carbon composition of most products met and exceeded the requirements of AISI 1018, ASTM A706, BS4449, and Nst-65-Mn when compared, while some fell below what these standards required. Federated Steel Mills Limited, Ogun State, has the highest tensile stress value at 799.49 MPa, followed by Real Steel Reinforcing Pty Limited, Auckland, New Zealand, at 726.34 MPa, and Landcraft Industries Limited, Ikorudu, Lagos, at 708.3 MPa, according to a yield and tensile strengths analysis of 16 mm steel bars produced locally and imported. The lowest tensile strengths ever reported are 410 MPa for African Steel Nig. Limited, Ikorodu, Lagos, and 538.51 MPa for steel imported from Brazil. It is hoped that the data from this study will bridge the knowledge gap between the team players in this field, thus preventing catastrophe.

Published: January 2025

Purpose of the study: Assessment of students' critical thinking skills and environmental care attitudes is crucial for science learning. This research aims to develop an essay test instrument for critical thinking and a questionnaire for environmental care attitudes, evaluating their validity through expert assessments and trials.
Methodology: Utilizing the Research and Development (R&D) model by Oriondo & Dallo-Antoio (1998), the study comprises three stages: test planning, trials, and validation. A random sampling technique was employed, involving 267 students. The critical thinking instrument consists of essay questions, while the environmental care attitudes are measured using a prosocial intentions questionnaire.
Main Findings: Validity results indicate a high Aiken index of 0.96 for critical thinking essays and 1.0 for the environmental care questionnaire. Reliability estimates were 0.73 for critical thinking and 0.71 for environmental attitudes, both good. The difficulty level for the critical thinking instrument was classified as medium (0.68), while the environmental care instrument was deemed difficult (1.65).
