Osteoporosis: A Silent Life Threatening Disease
Authors: Roy Krishna
Published: May 2023

Osteoporosis is a pervasive multi-factorial chronic disorder, characterized by low bone mineral density and increased risk for bone fragility, with a claim for long term management procedure. Osteoporosis as a disease in general is a major threat due to our changed life style and aging demographic. It may be viewed as a heterogeneous condition which may occur due to various genetic, nutritional, mechanical, endocrine and other life style factors. Although post- menopausal women are the most vulnerable victims, aged men population cannot escape themselves from this disease, as can be diagnosed by Bone Mineral Density (BMD) test. This review work will give an insight about how the disease can be controlled by change in life style along with usage of some selected pharmaceuticals and nutritional supplements. Hence assessment of the prevalence and awareness of the risk factors associated with the disease may provide the basis of management and future health plans to combat it.
Impacts of Chemical Beauty
Authors: Samanta Saptadip
Published: May 2023

Cosmetics are the group of products, including sun-cream, moisturizers, powders, perfumes, lipsticks, nail polishes, hair colors, shampoo, deodorants, baby products, and others. The use of cosmetic products is increasing day by day throughout the world. Both men and women are using cosmetics for their beautification and attractive looking. Cosmetic products contain a variety of chemical ingredients and some of these can create toxicity. There is a restriction to the use of toxic and non-permitted chemicals in cosmetics but, due to poor surveillance, sometime product contains unauthenticated chemicals. Thus, there is every time chance for the intoxication of cosmetics. The common effects of cosmetic toxicity are skin damage, hypersensitivity reaction and allergic dermatitis, skin rash, skin irritation, the appearance of acne, formation of dry and scaly skin, and carcinoma. The present work has focused on the main toxic chemical substances present in cosmetic products and the possible health complications related to cosmetic use. The side effects of cosmetics are now being an emerging issue of public health. Proper surveillance, authentication of the product and public awareness will be helpful to prevent cosmetic-related health problems.

The aim of the experiment was to determine the amino acid content in 3 grape varieties by-products (bunch, pomace, stem) from Austria (AT) and Slovakia (SK). In total, 54 samples from 3 varieties Zweigelt (ZG), Pinot Blanc (PB) and Green Veltliner (GV) white skinned from 6 different locations (Nitra and Vienna wine region) of Vitis vinifera sp. were analysed. In each variety the amino acids composition was determined for the whole grape (bunch) and by-products of wine industry (pomace, stems). Samples of grape by-products were freeze dried, homogenized and analysed for amino acids concentration using amino acid analyzer AAA 400 (Ingos, Prague). Descriptive statistics (means, standard error of mean, minimum maximum), differences between varieties (Tukey test, p < 0.05) using One-way ANOVA and differences between the countries with independent samples T-test (p < 0.05) by IBM SPSS v. 20.0 were generated. After the amino acid analysis in grape bunch, pomace and stem in general the highest content of glutamic and aspartic acid was found. However, the grape pomace amino acid content is highly variable and statistically different between the varieties and countries. In contrary, lower variability in amino acids content between the varieties was found in grape stem. However, similar pattern in amino acids with the lowest content between the countries and varieties in grape by-products was observed. Finally, low content of Cysteine, Methionine, Histidine and Proline was found.

Published: May 2023

Aim: The aim of the study was to be thoroughly examined the chemical and lipid composition of three species of wild edible mushrooms (Boletus pinophilus, Cantharellus cibarius and Craterellus cornucopioides) grown in Bulgaria as well as performing a principal component analysis in order to clarify specific relationships between the species and their nutritional compositions. Methods: Standard methods following the ISO procedures were used for determination of the components. Results: Moisture, crude fat, proteins, total carbohydrates, crude fibre and ash were determined in the examined mushroom species. Potassium and phosphorus were the essential elements in the mushrooms. Unsaturated fatty acids predominated in the lipid fraction of triacylglycerols, and oleic acid was the main one. Ergosterol was the major sterol in the lipid fraction of all mushrooms (42.4 – 72.8%). Phospholipid composition of the mushrooms differed, and phosphatidic acids were the main class in B. pinophilus and C. cibarius, while in C. cornucopioides all phospholipid classes were present in similar quantities. Fatty acid composition of the main phospholipid classes of the mushrooms was determined for the first time and was observed that saturated fatty acids (51.2 – 73.3%) predominated in all main phospholipids except in phosphatidic acids from C. cornucopioides, where unsaturated fatty acids prevailed (54.9%). Conclusion: Some key differences were observed in the chemical and lipid composition of the examined mushroom species but all of them were abundant in valuable fat-soluble biologically active components which made them suitable for possible application as food additives in many products and functional foods.

Published: May 2023

The samples of leaves and roots of Nicotiana tabacum, the stems and tubers of Solanum tuberosum and the stems of pea Pisum sativum were examined by scanning probe microscopy in atomic force and magnetic force modes after cultivation without and with addition of magnetite nanoparticles in soil. Chains of both biogenic and anthropogenic magnetic nanoparticles are detected in the wall of the phloem sieve tubes i.e., the vascular tissue of plants. Such a localization of biogenic magnetic nanoparticles supports the idea that the chains of magnetic nanoparticles in different organs of plants have common metabolic functions. Stray gradient magnetic fields about several thousand Oe, which are created by chains of both biogenic and anthropogenic magnetic nanoparticles, can significantly affect the metabolic processes through the influence on mass transfer of vesicles, granules, organelles and other components. In view of the results of this investigation, both BMNs and anthropogenic magnetite nanoparticles chains can significantly affect the processes of mass transfer of vesicles, organelles, structural elements of the membrane and others components because they create stray magnetic fields and gradient magnetic forces.

Published: May 2023

People nowadays prefer functional food products that have health benefits beyond their nutritional benefits. Fruit-based products with additional benefits of probiotics are also gaining popularity worldwide. This study aimed to develop and evaluate the physicochemical characteristics and sensory properties of wood apple jelly infused with probiotic microbes. Firstly, different solvent extracts of wood apple pulp were tested for total phenol, flavonoid, and antioxidant activities. Wood apple pulp and sugar were used to prepare control jelly (WAJ). The experimental jelly (PWAJ) was prepared similarly with addition of immobilized L. acidophilus. The pH, titratable acidity, colour, texture, total phenol, flavonoid, total antioxidant capacity and sensory characteristics of WAJ and PWAJ were analysed using standard methods. The methanolic extract of wood apple pulp showed significantly (P<0.05) higher total phenol, flavonoid, DPPH radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant as compared to acetone and aqueous extract. There was no significant difference in pH, titratable acidity, colour, texture, total phenol, flavonoid, DPPH radical scavenging activity, or ferric reducing antioxidant capacity between WAJ and PWAJ. The sensory quality of both the jellies was stable during the storage period of one month except for flavour which was significantly reduced after 15 days. The probiotic count in PWAJ was 7.18 log CFU at zero day and did not change significantly up to 15 days. In conclusion, wood apple is a promising source of antioxidants. Incorporating probiotic organisms in wood apple jelly was found to be acceptable and can be used as a functional food.

De relatie tussen het mededingingsrecht en platformarbeid: effent de Europese Commissie de weg naar meer onderhandelingsmacht voor platformwerkers?

Op EU-niveau is men druk doende platformarbeid te reguleren. De Europese Commissie heeft in 2022 een pakket aan maatregelen gepresenteerd waarin zij verschillende maatregelen voorstelt. Veel aandacht gaat uit naar het richtlijnvoorstel inzake platformarbeid, dat onder meer een rechtsvermoeden introduceert en regels op het gebied van algoritmisch management bevat. Naast de ontwerprichtlijn bevat het pakket aan maatregelen echter ook richtsnoeren met betrekking tot collectief onderhandelen tussen zzp’ers. Met de richtsnoeren geeft de Europese Commissie te kennen hoe zij de (EU-)mededingingsregels toepast op (collectieve) afspraken tussen bepaalde zzp’ers. Het mededingingsrecht is veelvuldig genoemd als obstakel voor platformwerkers om hun rechtspositie te verbeteren. De richtsnoeren moeten de zorgen voor mededingingsrechtelijke sancties wegnemen. De ACM heeft de richtsnoeren inmiddels overgenomen in de Leidraad tariefafspraken zzp’ers. Het is echter de vraag hoe de richtsnoeren zich verhouden tot de benadering van het Hof van Justitie. In dit artikel worden de richtsnoeren geanalyseerd en afgezet tegen de rechtspraak van het Hof van Justitie en wordt nagegaan in hoeverre de regels platformwerkers rechtszekerheid bieden.
Vervalt indexatie ex-werknemers na opzegging uitvoeringsovereenkomst en liquidatie pensioenfonds? Rechtsbescherming ex-werknemers bij pensioenwijzigingen na einde arbeidsovereenkomst

Vervalt indexatie ex-werknemers na opzegging uitvoeringsovereenkomst en liquidatie pensioenfonds? Rechtsbescherming ex-werknemers bij pensioenwijzigingen na einde arbeidsovereenkomst

In deze bijdrage bespreek ik de betekenis van het Euronext-arrest van de Hoge Raad voor de rechtspraktijk. Aan de orde is de rechtsbescherming van ex-werknemers bij (pensioen)wijzigingen nadat de arbeidsovereenkomst is geëindigd. De zaak ging, kort gezegd, over het vervallen van de indexatie van pensioengerechtigden nadat werkgever Euronext de uitvoeringsovereenkomst met het pensioenfonds had opgezegd. Voor werknemers werd de nieuwe pensioenopbouw en indexatie voortgezet bij Delta Lloyd. Na de liquidatie van het opgebouwde pensioen bij het pensioenfonds naar eveneens Delta Lloyd was er geen indexatie meer voor pensioengerechtigden. Volgens hof Amsterdam was de opzegging in strijd met goed werkgeverschap, want onder meer een schending van de wettelijke onderbrengingsplicht en gelijke indexatiebehandeling. Euronext moest een nieuwe uitvoeringsovereenkomst in stand houden en indexatie inkopen. De Hoge Raad vernietigt het arrest en verwijst terug. Daarbij neemt hij voor de praktijk fundamentele beslissingen. Zo oordeelt hij dat goed werkgeverschap niet eindigt nadat de arbeidsovereenkomst is geëindigd. Verder overweegt de Hoge Raad dat een werkgever niet verplicht is om een uitvoeringsovereenkomst in stand te houden nadat de verwerving van pensioenaanspraken is geëindigd. Volgens hem was er geen schending van de onderbrengingsplicht of de verplichting tot gelijke indexatie van slapers en pensioengerechtigden. De wettelijke norm van gelijke indexatiebehandeling van slapers en pensioengerechtigden (artikel 58 PW) richt zich tot pensioenuitvoerders en geldt niet voor werkgevers. Bovendien was niet voldaan aan het onder dat artikel vereiste van ongelijke behandeling van groepen die deelnamen in dezelfde pensioenregeling. Last but not least overweegt de Hoge Raad dat (ex-)werknemers met een pensioenovereenkomst via een derdenbeding weliswaar partij zijn bij de uitvoeringsovereenkomst, maar dat geeft hun geen recht op nakoming van de financieringsverplichtingen van de werkgever jegens de pensioenuitvoerder onder die overeenkomst. Het arrest levert een nuttige bijdrage aan de rechtsontwikkeling.

Published: May 2023

The effects of hypertension on the outcomes during the perioperative period are still unclear. No specific systolic or diastolic blood pressure measurement has been determined as the cutoff point to continue with the surgical plan or adjourn.This study is designed as a narrative review of the available scientific evidence on the perioperative management of hypertension. A non-systematic review was conducted in Pubmed considering the title and abstract; 120 articles were pre-selected of which 55 papers were selected for full-text eligibility and 16 were excluded for a total of 39 articles including  ACCF/AHA 2009 and ACC/AHA 2014 on perioperative cardiovascular care; 2013 ESH/ESC, 8 JNC, and the 2017 ACC/AHA/AAPA/ABC Guideline for the Prevention, detection, and management of hypertension in adults. Blood pressure values, target organ damage, and type of surgery should be considered for decision-making in the perioperative period. If surgery is an option, blood pressure fluctuations should be avoided and actively treat any potential causes. A patient with mild hypertension with values below SBP 160 and DBP 110 mmHg may be managed in the ambulatory setting during the postoperative period, as long as the clinical conditions are favorable.
El cólera en Barcelona. Respuestas institucionales y sociales frente a la epidemia de 1884-1885
Authors: De Miguel Salanova Santiago
Published: May 2023

Este artículo se aproxima a la última epidemia de cólera vivida por Barcelona en el siglo XIX, desde planteamientos analíticos e interpretativos relacionados con dos períodos. En primer término, se explorará el contexto en que la ciudad se vio amenazada por la posible introducción de la enfermedad y por la declaración epidémica tras la presentación de unos primeros casos aislados, poniéndose énfasis no sólo en las medidas preventivas establecidas por las autoridades locales, sino también en los planes de reordenamiento institucional que entonces se pensaron como necesarios para la mejora generalizada de la salud pública urbana a medio plazo. En segundo lugar, se estudiará la coyuntura inmediatamente anterior y coincidente con el desarrollo de la epidemia, observando tres escenarios específicos. En este sentido, se atenderá a los planes de contención diseñados por los organismos sanitarios, a la incidencia poblacional y socioespacial de la afección y a las diferentes actitudes y comportamientos presentados entre el vecindario. En última instancia, se generará una contraposición entre la resistencia activa y la solidaridad colectiva o el auxilio mutuo que podían detectarse durante el embate del cólera.
Entre divorcios, maleantes y "medicineros": los Tribunales de Raza en la Guinea Española (1938-1959)
Authors: Muñoz Martínez Celeste
Published: May 2023

Existen escasos estudios que aborden la construcción del sistema judicial en la Guinea Española como fuente para el estudio de las relaciones coloniales. El presente artículo propone analizar su evolución y sus tensiones, así como la interpretación de algunos pleitos representativos de los Tribunales de Demarcación entre 1938 y 1959. La justicia colonial de Guinea fue similar en estructura a la que implementaron otras potencias, organizada a través de un modelo de dualismo legal basado en la existencia de una justicia europea, bajo el ordenamiento peninsular, y de raza, supuestamente sujeta al derecho consuetudinario. El proceso de institucionalización de este modelo culminó en 1938, ya con la llegada del franquismo, cuando la acción colonial se intensificó considerablemente. La investigación se centra fundamentalmente en este período y sugiere que el sistema de Tribunales de Raza debe entenderse como el producto de un proceso bidireccional (evidentemente desigual) entre colonizados y colonizadores; es decir, como un espacio donde las estrategias de asimilación y disciplina social del Estado interactúan con las resistencias y la apropiación local de estos dispositivos.
The Influence of Profitability, Taxes, and Foreign Ownership on Transfer Pricing (An Empirical Study on Manufacturing Companies Listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2015-2021)
Authors: Purba Dianty Putri , Manalu Doanrikus , Ketaren Sinta Friska Br , Tampubolon Pebriyanti
Published: May 2023

The main point of this study is that transfer pricing, which is used by multinational companies to settle prices and transactions between divisions, allows businesses to reduce internal prices for commodities, services, and unwanted or excessive assets. The purpose of transfer pricing is to manage transfer prices between businesses with the specific goal of increasing the total tax liability within the company. The study population consisted of 143 manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) between 2015 and 2021. For the quantitative research type, 15 companies were selected using purposive sampling as the research sample. The information used was secondary data, namely the companies' financial records obtained from www.idx.co.id. Descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple regression analysis, outliers, F-statistics tests, and F-statistics tests were the data analysis techniques used. Transfer Price, the dependent variable of the study, was represented by RTP (Related Party Transaction). Profitability, Taxes, and Foreign Ownership were the independent variables used. Multiple regression analysis using SPSS 20 was the analytical approach employed in this research. According to the findings of this study, Profitability, Taxes, and Foreign Ownership do not simultaneously impact Transfer Pricing. The findings in this research explain that foreign ownership and taxes do not influence transfer pricing, nor do profits or taxes have any relationship with transfer pricing.

Open Pedagogy Benefits and Challenges: Student Perceptions of Writing Open Case Studies
Authors: Chen Deborah , Hendricks Christina
Published: May 2023

In recent years there have been several studies reviewing the benefits and challenges of open pedagogy projects for student engagement and learning. This study adds to that literature by reporting on a survey of students who wrote case studies in three courses in forestry and conservation studies, most of whom agreed to publish publicly and with a Creative Commons license. Our results indicate that many students felt more motivated and engaged in the open pedagogy assignments compared to traditional assignments. Many also reported putting more effort into their assignment to ensure its accuracy and usefulness to others. In addition to improved understanding of copyright and citation practices, students learned how to translate knowledge for a broader audience and demonstrated an increased awareness of scholarly integrity. Still, a number of students reported increased stress with this assignment. We conclude with some recommendations to support students in such projects while reducing stress.

The emerging concept in culture tourism is creative tourism, which allows visitors to grasp themselves in local traditions and culture. It is a way that can be utilized for the growth and development of communities. Creative Tourism can be seen as means of promoting prosperity and well-being in different countries. Although, (UNESCO, 2017) assessed the alteration of cultural tourism into creative tourism as it addresses more to the Sustainable Development Goals. The Structured Questionnaire was formed and a survey was conducted and 50 samples from each village were collected from for analysis and interpretation. To exert the influence, this research paper has been designed to pertain the scope of creative tourism resources and to understand community willingness, awareness, and perception of the development and growth of tourism in the prospect of creative tourism destination. It has been unearthed that three villages (Puja, Garode, and Kashpo) in Himachal Pradesh's Kinnaur region require consciousness for creative tourism implementation. The residents with high education qualifications have shown a positive approach. The state of Himachal Pradesh is well notable of its community hidden treasure and represents it as a creative place making although it doesn’t have any region that represents itself as a creative tourism destination.

Metaverse and translation studies: analysis of machine translation
Authors: González Vallejo Rubén
Published: May 2023

Although translation is fundamental, in collaboration with artificial intelligence, for the development and success of interaction and communication in the metaverse, little attention has been devoted to the direct influence of linguistic communication in three-dimensional space. Therefore, in this paper we have analyzed different research focused on the metaverse, coming from various disciplines, which have used the machine translation service. The aim is to know the perceptions about its use and quality, and thus understand what potential it would have in virtual reality and the challenges it poses. Documents were retrieved from the SciELO, Google Scholar and Dialnet databases, and those studies that have directly or indirectly used the automatic translation tool to favor communication and interaction between users were included. The results show a generally positive perception on the part of the studies analyzed, although the imprecision of the automatic translation engines and the lack of linguistic combinations are qualified. Finally, the importance of studying communication in the metaverse, opening up the number of available languages and research on the training of translation engines is highlighted, as the revenue of the machine translation market is bound to increase in the coming years due to the pace of production and the productivity offered.

Authors:   The Korean Society for Veterinary Nursing, Lee Jae Yeon , Baek Jeong-In
Published: May 2023

Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a progressive genetic disease in which multiple small and large fluid-filled sacs (cysts or cysts) are formed in one or both kidneys. Polycystic kidney disease in cats is classified as an autosomal dominant genetic disease and has been found to be caused by mutations in the PKD1 gene that is coding a unit of mechanosensitive calcium channel, polycystin 1. It shows that humans and cats share a genetic cause for polycystic kidney disease. In this paper, we try to understand the pathogenesis of polycystic kidney disease through the genetic mutations and protein functions of feline polycystic kidney syndrome reported so far, and discuss the direction of genetic research that needs to be performed in the future.

After collecting livestock meat from cattle, pigs, chickens, ducks, sheep, and horses in the Gyeongnam and Gyeongbuk porvinde regions for three years from 2020 to 2022, hazardous residues were examined using LC-MS/MS. In the first qualitative test, a total of 45 cases (0.5%), 53 cases (0.58%), and 33 cases (0.47%) were positive for the three years from 2020 to 2022, respectively. In the second quantitative test, a total of 23 cases(1.58%), 26 cases (1.39%), and 25 cases (0.58%) of hazardous residues were found to be positive in 2020. Overall, the positive rate was high in beef, but there was not a single positive reaction in duck, lamb, and horse meat did not show a positive reaction for 3years. Therefore, it is necessary to further strengthen the inspection of harmful residues on beef in the future. To this end, the government will have to invest heavily in manpower and equipment in the livestock sanitation laboratory.
