Pulmonary sequestration is an uncommon congenital malformation of the lung, generally diagnosed in childhood or adolescence, corresponding to dysplastic lung tissue not communicating with the rest of vascular or bronchial lung system but receiving an arterial blood supply from systemic arteries. Currently, surgical resection is usually indicated in order to prevent or treat related symptoms or complications, although controversy exists regarding its use in asymptomatic patients and adults. We present the case of a 32-year-old pregnant woman with acute chest pain and vomiting diagnosed with intralobar sequestration at 32+2 weeks of gestation and treated with pulmonary lobectomy after giving birth by cesarean section at 33+0 weeks of gestation.
Association of CYP3A5*3, CYP3A4*18 & CYP2B6*6 polymorphisms with imatinib treatment outcome in Azerbaijani chronic myeloid leukaemia patients
Authors: Asadov Chingiz , Karimova Nigar , Hasanova Aypara , Bayramov Bayram , Shirinova Aytan , Alimirzoyeva Zohra
Published: September 2023

Background & objectives:

Imatinib mesylate (IM) is a reliable first line treatment for chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). Nevertheless, despite promising results, a considerable proportion of patients develop resistance to the drug. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes play a crucial role in IM metabolism. Thus, point mutations in CYP genes may modify IM enzyme activity resulting in insufficient treatment response. This investigation was aimed to identify the functional impact of CYP3A5*3, CYP3A4*18 and CYP2B6*6 polymorphisms on the IM response in patients with CML in Azerbaijan.

Methods:

Genotyping of CYP3A5*3, CYP3A4*18 and CYP2B6*6 was performed in 153 patients (102 IM non-responders and 51 IM responders) with CML by the PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assays. The odds ratios (ORs) with 95 per cent confidence intervals (CIs) were applied to assess the association between allelic variants and IM therapy outcome. The results were validated by sequencing.

Results:

The frequency of the CYP3A4*18 allele was considerably lower in the responder’s group (97.1 vs. 100%; P=0.036). For CYP3A5*3, the allelic frequency was slightly higher among the IM responders (100 vs. 99.02%) with no significant difference. Although patients heterozygous (TC) for CYP2B6*6 demonstrated a higher risk of acquiring resistance (OR 1.04; 95% CI: 0.492-2.218), differences were not significant (P=0.909). In addition, the homozygous genotype (TT) demonstrated a lower risk of unresponsiveness (OR 0.72; 95% CI: 0.283-1.836), but associations were not significant (P=0.491).

Interpretation & conclusions:

Our results demonstrated that CYP3A4*18 was significantly associated with IM treatment response in patients with CML in Azerbaijan, whereas rather common CYP3A5*3 was identified to have no such association.
Prognostic significance of prolonged corrected QT interval in cerebral contusion
Authors: Yavuz Ahmed Yasin , Baskurt Ozan , Kurtulus Yunus , Avci Idris
Published: September 2023

Background & objectives:

Cerebral contusion (CC) results in a release of catecholamines, autonomic dysfunction and neural stimulation that can lead to a number of cardiac adverse events, so it is critical to determine these. So the objective of this study was to investigate the prognostic significance of electrocardiographic changes, particularly the effects of a prolonged corrected QT (QTc) interval in CC.

Methods:

In this retrospective cohort study, 110 patients with CC were evaluated. Age, sex, concomitant diseases, Glasgow Coma Scale on admission, radiological assessment of the contusion (location, size, course and presence of cerebral oedema), need for surgical intervention, length of hospital stay and the extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS-E) were statistically analysed within the QTc interval by routine electrocardiography (ECG) on admission.

Results:

The prolonged QTc interval was found to be associated with a higher incidence of cerebral oedema and a significantly higher risk of needing surgery. Patients with a prolonged QTc interval had a significantly larger contusion volume, greater midline shift and longer hospital stay, so their GOS-E score was significantly lower. A prolonged QTc interval on admission resulted in a hospital stay of more than eight days (sensitivity: 0.97 and specificity: 0.86), a higher risk of midline shift of more than 0.45 cm (P=0.006, sensitivity: 0.80 and specificity: 0.99) and a GOS-E score of <7 (sensitivity: 0.97 and specificity: 0.85).

Interpretation & conclusions:

ECG changes on admission showing a prolonged QTc interval have prognostic significance in CC. This simple and easily applicable information should be taken into consideration at the time of clinical decision making which may prevent an adverse events survivor.

Authors: LIU Guiying , ZHANG Yanyan , TANG Ling
Published: September 2023

Objective:

The objective of this study was to construct an early warning system (EWS) to facilitate risk assessment, early identification, and appropriate treatment of enteral nutrition feeding intolerance (FI) in patients with stroke, so as to provide a reference for risk classification standards and interventions toward a complete EWSs for nursing care of stroke.

Materials and Methods:

Based on evidence and clinical nursing practice, a structured expert consultation method was adopted on nine experts over two rounds of consultation. Statistical analysis was used to determine the early warning index for FI in patients with stroke.

Results:

The expert authority coefficient was 0.89; the coefficients of variation for the two rounds of consultation were 0.088–0.312 and 0.096–0.214, respectively. There were significant differences in the Kendall's concordance coefficient (P < 0.05). Finally, 22 items in five dimensions of patient age, disease, treatment, biochemical, and enteral nutrition-related factors were identified.

Conclusion:

The early warning index for FI in patients with a history of stroke is valid and practical. It provides a reference for the early clinical identification of FI risk.

Sodium/Iodide Symporter Analysis for Prognostication and Management in Thyroglobulin-elevated Negative Iodine Scintigraphy Syndrome: Current Advances and Future Prospects
Authors: Mohanty Abhishek , Ilapakruty Bhargaw , Kunigal Sateesh S , Kallur K. G. , Rao Vishal
Published: September 2023

Well-differentiated thyroid cancers are typically managed with surgery followed by radioiodine ablation. These cancers often retain the ability to concentrate intracellular iodine. However, cancer cell dedifferentiation frequently confers radioiodine resistance, termed thyroglobulin-elevated negative iodine scintigraphy (TENIS) syndrome. Elucidation of the sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) mechanism that mediates active iodide transport has enabled advances in the pathophysiologic understanding and clinical management of TENIS syndrome. This review summarizes molecular cloning of the NIS gene and implications for thyroid biology. It highlights studies of NIS gene regulation across tissues and utilization of NIS as a reporter gene to restore radioiodine uptake in advanced thyroid cancers. Quantitative NIS expression analyses and correlations with radioiodine uptake are also discussed. Overall, this review underscores the vital role of NIS-mediated iodide transport in thyroid pathophysiology and modern radioiodine therapeutic paradigms for advanced thyroid cancers, including TENIS syndrome. Further research into mechanisms underlying differential NIS expression and therapeutic modulation of NIS activity is warranted.

Authors: Bayón Luis , Ayuso Pedro Fortuny , Grau José María , Ruiz Maria del Mar
Published: September 2023

We settle the question of how to compute the entry and leaving arcs for turnpikes in autonomous variational problems, in the one-dimensional case using the phase space of the vector field associated with the Euler equation, and the initial/final and/or the transversality condition. The results hinge on the realization that extremals are the contours of a well-known function and that the transversality condition is (generically) a curve. An approximation algorithm is presented, and an example is included for completeness.

Published: September 2023

Pancreatic cancer (PanCa) presents a catastrophic disease with poor overall survival at advanced stages, with immediate requirement of new and effective treatment options. Besides genetic mutations, epigenetic dysregulation of signaling pathway-associated enriched genes are considered as novel therapeutic target. Mechanisms beneath the deoxyribonucleic acid methylation and its utility in developing of epi-drugs in PanCa are under trails. Combinations of epigenetic medicines with conventional cytotoxic treatments or targeted therapy are promising options to improving the dismal response and survival rate of PanCa patients. Recent studies have identified potentially valid pathways that support the prediction that future PanCa clinical trials will include vigorous testing of epigenomic therapies. Epigenetics thus promises to generate a significant amount of new knowledge of biological and medical importance. Our review could identify various components of epigenetic mechanisms known to be involved in the initiation and development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and related precancerous lesions, and novel pharmacological strategies that target these components could potentially lead to breakthroughs. We aim to highlight the possibilities that exist and the potential therapeutic interventions.
Soft Computing-Based Driver Modeling for Automatic Parking of
Articulated Heavy Vehicles
Authors: Rezaei Nedamani Hamidreza , Soleymanifard Mostafa , Safaeifar Ali , Khiabani Parisa Masnadi
Published: September 2023

Parking an articulated vehicle is a challenging task that requires skill,
experience, and visibility from the driver. An automatic parking system for
articulated vehicles can make this task easier and more efficient. This article
proposes a novel method that finds an optimal path and controls the vehicle with
an innovative method while considering its kinematics and environmental
constraints and attempts to mathematically explain the behavior of a driver who
can perform a complex scenario, called the articulated vehicle park maneuver,
without falling into the jackknifing phenomena. In other words, the proposed
method models how drivers park articulated vehicles in difficult situations,
using different sub-scenarios and mathematical models. It also uses soft
computing methods: the ANFIS-FCM, because this method has proven to be a
powerful tool for managing uncertain and incomplete data in learning and
inference tasks, such as learning from simulations, handling uncertainty, and
capturing expert parking expertise. The results obtained from the proposed
method show that the use of a soft computation method significantly reduces the
cumulative errors: errors resulting from summing up each sub-maneuver. Of
course, the main source of these errors is related to starting from the random
point that exists at the beginning of the predefined complex scenario. This
implies that our method can effectively handle the uncertainty and variability
of parking scenarios.

Factors affecting Industrial Attachment Programme: Measures of academic performance and efficiency in Zimbabwe: A Review
Authors: Dondofema J. , Mwenje J. , Musemwa L.
Published: September 2023

Assessment of the Industrial Attachment Programme was deemed incomplete without reviewing measures of academic performance, efficiency, and the factors that affect performance and efficiency. The factors forming the basis for this review were found to human and system oriented. Academic performance of students has to be measured using examinations, tests, assignments and exercises. Data Envelope Analysis and Stochastic Frontier Analyst were the efficiency measures reviewed. Data Envelope Analysis was regarded appropriate for this study considering its ability to handle multiple inputs and outputs. Data Envelope Analysis estimates allocative, technical and economic efficiency which are key efficient measures. Some of the factors reviewed include financing, timing, evaluation and assessment methods of the programme. Linkage among students, tertiary education institutions, host organizations and various stake holders were other key factors. Courses covered before Industrial Attachment were noted as other key factors since the programme intends to marry theory learnt in the classroom with the practice. Industrial Attachment in Zimbabwe as with the Agricultural colleges and other institutions of tertiary education was also reviewed. The institutions use different approaches which will help much in the assessment of the programme. Measurement of performance and efficiency levels were found to be done with primary and secondary schools making reference to the academic side and not much was found to be done with agricultural colleges and the industrial attachment programme thereby forming the basis for this study. Colleges have to adopt models which improve performance and efficiency of the programme.
Fostering posterity and socio-economic transformation through the prism of indigenous languages in youth training: A participatory approach
Authors: Mavesera M. , Magege D.
Published: September 2023

This paper reviews thee mediating role of indigenous languages in vocational skills and national development in the Zimbabwean context. In the wake of the current outcry for jobs, employment creation and entrepreneurship the need for new strategies to revive industry by focusing on community resources has become imperative. Youths need to turn to themselves as repositories of skills required for operationalising dormant and fledgling industries. In pursuit of this new strategy they need the expertise of local artisans. The initiative, adopted in the spirit of national consciousness, should yield an indigenous brand of technology. It is from this perspective that the paper argues for a fresh, broader approach to youth training, through the identification of a national programme that encourages skilled artisans to use indigenous languages as vehicles for imparting industrial skills to out of school youths. The envisaged formal programme can be implemented through the identification of industrial bases that would tap the industrial skills of out of school youths, under the tutorship of local skilled artisans. For more effective implementation the proposed blueprint argues for the liberalization of instructional media. Trainers and trainees would switch on to their preferred language in skills’ acquisition. Such a flexible project, sustained through collaborative engagement, between skilled artisans and youths, would go a long way towards enhancing the latter’s creative potential, by fostering familiarity with the terminology required by a particular industry. Further, the article envisages learners’ progressive training programmes that motivate vocational training graduates to apply modern technology to productive processes demanded by the respective communities. The study concludes by emphasizing that the achievement of national goals for entrepreneurship and youth empowerment/employment requires the adoption of new strategies encapsulated in the Education 5.0.blueprint.
The genetic composition of the Traditional Irish Horse – towards the development of a DNA-ancestry test for the preservation of traditionally bred Irish Sport Horses
Authors: Hill Emmeline , McGivney Beatrice , Harty Deirdre , Corbally Alison
Published: September 2023

The traditionally bred Irish Sport Horse, known as the Traditional Irish Horse, is an important cultural asset to horse genetic resources in Ireland. We tested the hypothesis that the Irish Sport Horse, which was originally developed from the Irish Hunter, may contain a genetic background distinct from European horse populations that would be valuable to preserve. Using genome-wide single nucleotide (SNP) data, the results show that Traditional Irish Horses (with confirmed pedigrees) have lower levels of European ancestry components than other Irish Sport Horses. These results indicate that measurement of the levels of European ancestry components in the Irish Sport Horse may assist in the preservation of traditional Irish lineages.

Published: September 2023

Pautado na Filosofia da Diferença e referenciado principalmente em Foucault (2004, 2006, 2010) este artigo objetiva cartografar docentes de matemática quanto ao exercício profissional, discutindo conceitos e relações entre a política de subjetivação atrelada à instituição escola e o cuidado de si na perspectiva foucaultiana. Utilizamos a cartografia como pesquisa processual e interventiva com depoimentos de 8 professores de matemática da Educação Básica pública pernambucana, após discussões dos seguintes temas trazidos pela pesquisadora em função de estudos desenvolvidos na pesquisa: educação maior x educação menor; gestão de resultados; cuidado docente. Os depoimentos foram selecionados consoante os objetivos propostos e descritos conforme Rolnik (2011). Dessas produções foram observadas: linhas de forças, derivadas da incongruência: educação instituída x educação vivida. Performatividade e visão una, decorrentes de poder/saber legitimados. Rotas de fuga e reinvenção docentes em relação a si e à docência, evidenciando que mesmo perante controle externo, há nos sujeitos cartografados a capacidade múltipla e singular de exercer uma ética de si.

Terras da União: A comunidade quilombola Bom Jardim da Prata e as disputas territoriais no Vale Médio do São Francisco/MG
Authors: Sérgio Marques Amaro , Borsagli Alessandro , Melo Bernardes Brenda
Published: September 2023

Desde o processo de colonização do Brasil, o Rio São Francisco tem atraído povos tradicionais, que habitam, sobretudo suas margens, devido às facilidades associadas ao transporte fluvial, à possibilidade de uso de suas águas para atividades cotidianas e à fertilidade dos solos situados próximos ao curso d’água para cultivo. Apesar dessa dependência direta das comunidades tradicionais do Rio São Francisco como fonte de subsistência, verifica-se, ao longo da história, conflitos entre esses povos e outros grupos sociais que também têm mostrado interesse em usufruir dos benefícios do rio e da fertilidade de suas terras, por meio da exploração predatória dos recursos naturais para fins econômicos. Contudo, tais terras são legalmente pertencentes à União, o que torna ainda mais problemático os conflitos territoriais existentes. Desse modo, é proposto como objetivo deste artigo compreender a problemática existente vinculada ao processo de ocupação de terras da União por grupos sociais distintos e os interesses econômicos existentes. A análise apresentada tem como recorte de estudo a região do Vale Médio do São Francisco, com ênfase para os conflitos territoriais vinculados à comunidade quilombola de Bom Jardim da Prata, situada em região rural do município de São Francisco.

Authors: Limiansi Kintan , Aw Suranto , Paidi Paidi , Setiawan Caly
Published: September 2023

Curriculum change is one way of adapting education in the face of various scientific and technological developments. These changes lead to different views from numerous educational actors, one of which is teachers. This study aims to explore biology teachers' perspectives on curriculum change in Indonesia. A qualitative phenomenological study with semi-structured interviews explored the biology teachers' perspectives. The interview results were analyzed using the thematic analysis method with ATLAS.ti 22 software to determine themes. The results showed four themes from biology teachers' perspectives on curriculum change, which are (1) the factors affecting independent curriculum implementation; (2) the teachers' concerns; (3) the teachers' efforts; (4) the support systems needed by teachers. Biology teachers' perspectives show that teachers experience various problems and concerns but still strive to implement learning according to the curriculum. Synergistic support from schools, colleagues, government, educational colleges, and parents of students is needed for the successful implementation of an independent curriculum.

ŠEST MODALITETA UTICAJA MEĐUNARODNOG PRAVA NA KRIVIČNOPRAVNU ZAŠTITU ŽIVOTNE SREDINE
Authors:   Lawyer Vojvodina Bar Association, Todorović Aleksandar
Published: September 2023

The subject of analysis in this paper are issues concerning the possible modalities of the influence of international law on the protection of the environment through criminal law, regardless of whether such protection is provided at the international or national level. The expertcritical analysis of the literature collected for the purpose of addressing the issues that constitute the content of this paper shows six modalities of the influence of international law on the protection of the environment through criminal law. These are: Complete international legal modality, General hybrid modality, Specific hybrid modality, Modality of indirect intervention in the national legal order, Modality of reference to international law, and Modality of supranational influence. Each of the six possible modalities of the influence of international law on the protection of the environment through criminal law, as a universal human value, is presented in the paper through the analysis of their essential characteristics, individually and with special emphasis on their specific characteristics that formed the basis of the classification of the modalities. Moreover, the research conducted for the purposes of this paper is based on three methods (normative, comparative, and historical), where the legal system of the Republic of Serbia (primarily its criminal legislation) was used as the basis of comparison, where appropriate. At the end of the paper, the author, among other things, points out the necessity of expanding research on the subject matter. The key reason for the necessity of such an approach to this issue lies, according to the author, in the fact that there is a disproportion between its theoretical treatment and the degree of its importance for the desired level of protection of the environment through criminal law as an ultima ratio means. Viewed in this context, the author, among other things, points out the possibility of expanding research on situations where international law affects the immediate legal protection another good, not the environment, but the protection of that other good through criminal law protects the environment as well. The author preliminarily designates this type of influence as an “incidental” modality of influence. According to the author, the same applies to the procedural aspect of the protection of the environment through criminal law, such as international cooperation in the detection and prosecution of perpetrators or issues related to jurisdiction in criminal offenses where pollution has a cross-border effect or is committed outside state territory (e.g. on the open sea ).

Numerous research studies examined the variables affecting internationalization. Market allure, demand ambiguity, country risk, and lastly cultural similarity were examined. Even though the research focused on a few variables, there was no systematic attempt to evaluate these variables and how they affect the service firm's choice of entrance strategy. According to this study, technology should be considered while deciding how to enter foreign markets. Some service businesses can go worldwide right away, but there are some services that cannot be produced and disseminated digitally. E-commerce technology can still be used to boost the effectiveness of service creation and delivery.

Authors: Kobleva Z. Kh.
Published: September 2023

Currently the institution of the family and marriage relations is undergoing serious changes due to transformational processes of the Russian society. These changes are reflected in the variability of forms and models of the modern family and the common-law marriage is universally popular.

In the context of the modernization of society, traditional gender stereotypes are being eroded, leading to a revision of established behavioral norms and social roles in the family, forming the value-motivational foundations of marriage.

The Methods. The works of domestic and foreign scientists who studied the peculiarities of the gender perspective in the system of family and marriage relations have become the theoretical basis of the research. The works of Russian sociologists and the results of an independent sociological study conducted within the framework of this problem have become the empirical basis.

The Results. The thesis has been confirmed that the distribution of social roles between a man and a woman in a common-law marriage is contradictory, revealing the features of the gender display, significantly different from the traditional system of gender interaction.

Practical significance. The conducted research confirms the need to create a comprehensive system of knowledge about the family, prepare the younger generation for future family and marriage relations that contribute to the preservation of the basic values of the traditional family.

The relevance of the research topic. Decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated November 9, 2022 No. 809 «On the approval of the Fundamentals of State Policy for the Preservation and Strengthening of Traditional Russian Spiritual and Moral Values» among the priority tasks facing the state and the education system, a strong family, high moral ideals and the preservation of traditional family values were proclaimed. Therefore, the formation of a responsible attitude to the creation and preservation of a family, conscious parenthood is one of the key problems facing the education system.

The relevance of the research is dictated by the contradiction between the need to prepare orphans for family life and insufficient theoretical and practical knowledge on the design and implementation of social work technology to solve this problem.

The research problem is to identify theoretical and methodological foundations for the design and implementation of social work technology to prepare orphans for family life.

The purpose of the research is to theoretically substantiate and experimentally test the technology of social work to prepare orphans for family life. Achieving the goal was carried out through the use of the following research methods: analysis, design, description, methods of mathematical statistics, questioning.

The results of the research have made it possible to draw key conclusions: maternal deprivation in orphans is the main factor in unpreparedness for family life; social work to prepare orphans for family life should be comprehensive and implemented in the form of technology, including diagnostic, organizational, formative and final stages.

Pemalsuan Sertipikat hak milik tanah seringkali menjadi masalah hukum bagi pihak-pihak atau oknum dari suatu lembaga yang tidak bertanggungjawab.  Pengaturan tindak pidana pemalsuan yang berlaku di Indonesia diatur dalam  Pasal 263 ayat (2) Jo pasal 55 KUHP dan diancam dengan pidana penjara paling lama enam tahun. Pertanggungjawaban pidana menggunakan surat palsu dalam pelepasan hak penguasaan dengan ganti rugi dalam jual beli tanah adalah terdakwa dijatuhkan pidana dengan pidana pidana penjara selama 3 (tiga) tahun. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pertimbangan hakim dalam menjatuhkan  putusan terhadap kasus menggunakan surat palsu dalam pelepasan hak penguasaan dengan ganti rugi dalam jual beli tanah adalah terdakwa telah terbukti secara sah dan meyakinkan bersalah melakukan tindak pidana menggunakan surat palsu dalam pelepasan hak penguasaan dengan ganti rugi dalam jual beli tanah dan  Majelis Hakim tidak menemukan hal-hal yang dapat menghapuskan pertanggungjawaban pidana, baik sebagai alasan pembenar dan atau alasan pemaaf, maka Terdakwa harus mempertanggungjawabkan perbuatannya.

The analysis began by finding the frequency of rain using the Log Pearson III method. The rain data used came from two rain posts, namely the Araren-Pinenek MRG rain post and the Maen Climatology rain post. The rainfall data used is the maximum daily rainfall data from 2002 to 2019. Rain flow modeling on the HEC-HMS komputer program using the HSS Soil Conservation Services method, and for water loss with the SCS Curve Number (CN). For baseflow using the recession method. HSS SCS parameter calibration was performed before simulating flood discharge using peak discharge test. The calibrated parameters are lag time, curve number, recession constant, initial discharge and ratio to peak. For the limits of each parameter is adjusted to the standard values in the HEC-HMS komputer program. The peak discharge test results show 2.2 m3 / second. Then a flood discharge analysis was carried out with calibrated parameters using the HEC-HMS komputer program. The peak discharge results simulated each time are re-entered in the HEC-RAS komputer program, then simulating flow profiles including flow velocity and high elevation of the water table. The flood discharge plan used is the 25 years period of 24,5 m3/second by installing several Eco Hydraulic constructions such as vetiver grass, bush grass, bamboo plants, logs, and a combination of vetiver grass and logs. The flow speed of the existing cross-section with the application between vetiver grass and logs can be reduced by 62%. With the use of Eco Hydraulics, it can reduce and optimize flow speed and looks aesthetic considering Pulisan is a superpriority area

The motif pattern of cloths can be designed in fractal form based on Collage components composition by means of the iterated function system (IFS) encoding algorithm to encode the design position into a code and decoding algorithm to decode the code and to display the fractal object. In this paper, two kinds of Collage component composition in straight lines and self-similarity feature are discussed. The first model consists of four lines and one square shape of Collage component. The second model consists of three lines and one square shape of Collage component. The composition is made in a such way, that there are several closed planes to be colored later. The IFS code generated by the IFS encoding algorithm is normalized to ensure that the straight lines are crossed to one or two neighbor lines in the right position and the self-similarity feature is also fitted to fill the void and integrated with the lines

Metamorphic as a keyword has several implementations in digital era. The basic implementation is in image processing that can be extended to other fields. The metamorphic process in image processing as a series transition visualization of two source images can be simulated in fractal model. As long as a pair of fractal objects of the iterated function system model uses the affine coefficients as a result of transformations in initial state, so it can be transformed to other states easily just applying gradually manipulation on each set of coefficients based on the interpolation values between the source and destination objects. In this paper there are two kinds of metamorphic transition effects on two pairs of fractal objects with five collage components discussed. The first model exhibits the metamorphic transition effect in radial direction and the second one exhibits the metamorphic transition effect in vertical direction between the pair of similar objects.

In the processing and utilisation of cassava, stems and leaves usually become waste. The tender stems of cassava were analysed by electrospray ionisation high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Using UPLC BEH C18 column (50 × 2.1 mm; i.d.: 1.7 μm), the mobile phases were H2O (0.1% FA) and CH3CN (0.1% FA), the column temperature was 30°C, and the flow rate was 0.30 mL/min. Mass spectrometry was performed by the Waters SYNAPT G2 HDMS system. This gave excellent reproducibility and avoided the interference of some similar substances. A total of 33 compounds were identified in Bzhe samples of cassava tender stems by this method, mainly cyanosides, catechins, flavonoids, glycosides, glycosides, phospholipids, and other components. The present work provided reference value for the development and utilisation of cassava tender stems.
Combating Greenwashing Tactics and Embracing the Economic Success of Sustainability

Green Washing refers to the deceptive practice of making a company or its products appear more environmentally friendly than they genuinely are, often to capitalize on the growing consumer demand for sustainable and eco-conscious choices. Eliminating Green Washing is essential for the development of sustainable business practises and for safeguarding customers from fraudulent, greenwashed promises. The paper seeks to bridge theory and practise by offering an analysis of ten firms accused of greenwashing. Thus, the paper considers deliberate organisational and communicative practises that go beyond greenwashing's most obvious forms. Based on these instances, prevalent communication blunders and corporate misconduct behaviours in corporate sustainability are exposed. A strong legislative framework is urgently needed to make sure that businesses that make false environmental claims are held accountable and subject to severe fines to have a deterrent impact. Better consumer education and knowledge about the problem of "green washing" and how to spot it are also necessary. Businesses can adopt third-party certification programmes and independent audits. Companies should endeavour to be upfront and honest in their environmental claims, prioritise sustainability, and encourage good governance to avoid "greenwashing."
