An Environmental Perspective of Dracunculiasis and the Guinea Worm Eradication Programme on Human Behaviour in the Northern Region of Ghana
Authors: Yembilah Nicholas N-Kang , Dombo Simon Diedong
Published: March 2021

This article examines the role dracunculiasis (Guinea Worm Disease – GWD) and the Guinea Worm Eradication Programme (GWEP) played in changing community members’ behaviour towards the disease and their bio-physical environment. The research design that was used to collect data was the mixed method approach, in which questionnaire was administered, Focus Group Discussion (FGD) was held, and key informant interviews conducted. Krejcie and Morgan’s formula for determining sample population for research was used to determine the sample population of the study area, which was 860. It was found that bedrock lithology made community members to resort to unsafe sources of drinking water which exposed them to GWD. It was also realized that the educational programmes which the GWEP brought along with it changed community members’ behaviour towards their bio-physical environment, which ultimately resulted in eradicating the disease in the study area. It was therefore recommended that in carrying out disease eradication or control programmes, the environmental protection agency should be involved in the process of educating community members on methods of improving on the integrity of their natural and built environment to enhance the overall health status of the community.

Authors: Indiahono Dwiyanto
Published: March 2021

The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of the success of the Banyumas Complaint Outlet (Lapak Aduan Banyumas/ LAB) in increasing public trust in the government. One of the goals of bureaucratic reform is to build citizens’ trust, but it is rarely discussed how the bureaucracy initiates bureaucratic reform by building trust in citizens. This research used qualitative research methods, data collection techniques used are interviews, observation, and documentation. The data analysis techniques used were interactive data analysis and content analysis. LAB offers a framework that gives trust to the public to complain, many complaints from the public will create external pressure from the bureaucracy to make improvements to bureaucratic performance. Performance improvements of the bureaucracy will increase public trust. The increase in public trust in the government is evidenced by the high interest of citizens to provide suggestions and input to the government regarding public services or facilities. A simple complaint system and quick response has proven to strengthen public trust. Bureaucratic reform can be started by earning citizens’ trust.

Published: March 2021

O presente artigo propõe uma análise das demandas e reivindicações do movimento das mulheres indígenas de Roraima, a partir dos debates da Organização das Mulheres Indígenas de Roraima (OMIR). A contar de um processo de luta e empoderamento feminino, as mulheres indígenas em Roraima vêm ganhando espaços de participação e reconhecimento em suas comunidades de base e organizações estaduais. Primeiro, questionando o seu papel e participação nas reuniões e assembleias, logo levantando demandas e reivindicações. Nas linhas que seguem analisamos suas demandas e reivindicações, verificando como a partir delas podemos identificar suas preocupações, suas ideias, suas necessidades na luta por reconhecimento de direitos e de participação social e cidadã. Nessa perspectiva, dialogamos com o referencial teórico dos movimentos indígenas e das discussões de gênero, porém mediatizado pela perspectiva de construção de identidade étnica e de experiências de vida desde as comunidades indígenas, o que nos mostra uma perspectiva singular para compreender as lutas e construções históricas dos povos indígenas na Amazônia.
THE STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS OF THE BUDGET OF THE CITY OF CHELYABINSK IN THE 1950s–1980s
Authors:   Chelyabinsk State University, Bakanov Sergey A. , Botova Alina A. ,   South Ural State University
Published: March 2021

In the history of Soviet urban finance of the second half of the 20th century, the example of Chelyabinsk shows two periods of the most intensive growth of budget revenues in large industrial cities. These are the second half of the 1950s, when the city budget of Chelyabinsk grew by 136 % over five years, and the period of perestroika — 123 % over the same five years. In other time, the growth was much less rapid and sometimes even gave way to temporary declines. The structure of urban income has undergone a significant evolution from mainly local sources of income in the early 1950s to almost complete dependence on deductions from higher budgets by the end of the 1980s. The system of local taxes and fees has been constantly stagnating during the period under review, since the possibility of replenishing the city budget with deductions from all-Union taxes made the city authorities not interested in its intensification. This, in turn, led to the fact that the city budget was mainly used to finance public expenditures, such as the maintenance of health and education systems. That is why the city authorities were significantly limited in terms of spending budget funds for the actual city needs. And these needs in the form of a catastrophically increasing cost of maintaining the city’s housing and communal services steadily grew and became the largest item of expenditure in the city budget. This approach to budget policy and local finance made Soviet urban settlements subsidized, and even if real budget deficits were not often reached, dependence on external sources of income became one of the most important factors that hindered urban development.
SEMIOTIC MATRIX OF THE 19th CENTURY FACTORY CITY: MANCHESTER, IVANOVO-VOSNESENSK AND LODZ
Authors:   Ivanovo State University, Timofeev Mikhail Yu.
Published: March 2021

The article is devoted to the formation of an industrial urban narrative in the 19th century literature. Changes in the urban environment as a result of the industrial revolution presupposed creation of a new figurative language, which could be used to describe industrial centers. This concerned the portrayal of social changes and their context. The main antithesis of industrial loci is not the patriarchal city, but the natural environment or the countryside, changing as a result of expansion of a growing number of factories and plants. One of the most rapidly developing spheres of capitalist production in the 18th–19th centuries was the textile industry. In the middle of the 19th century, Manchester became a kind of benchmark for textile centers in different European countries. As an example of the depiction of industrial loci, the author considers texts about two “Manchesters” of the Russian Empire — the village of Ivanovo (since 1871, the city of Ivanovo-Voznesensk) and the Polish city of Lodz. In the first case, numerous essays, stories and poems are the basis used to form the local text. In the second case, it is the famous V. Reymont’s novel “The Promised Land”. The semiotic analysis is applied to the urban environment and landscape, the auditory and olfactory characteristics of typical industrial cities.
“MY GREAT-GRANDFATHER WOULD NOT HAVE RECOGNIZED HIS CITY”: THE IMAGE OF EKATERINBURG / SVERDLOVSK IN THE LITERATURE OF THE URALS IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE 1940S
Authors:   Institute of History and Archaeology, Ural Branch of the RAS, Litovskaya Maria A. ,   Ural Federal University, Nekrasova Yulia S. ,   Ural Federal University
Published: March 2021

The paper considers the image of Ekaterinburg / Sverdlovsk in the 1940s Urals literature. It analyzes the content of the literary and artistic almanac “The Ural Contemporary” (1949), dedicated to the anniversary of Sverdlovsk, the novel by I. I. Likstanov “Green Stone” (1949), poems by E. E. Khorinskaya and others. The characteristic features of the image of the “capital of the Urals” in literature for adults and children are highlighted. The changes that have occurred in depicting of Sverdlovsk in comparison with the previous periods are noted. With a limited list of depicted urban loci, constant mention in various texts of the same key figures and events of urban history in the post-war period, the emphasis is shifted to the image of Ekaterinburg / Sverdlovsk as a city not only with a rich history, but also with a heterogeneous, complex socio-cultural environment. Based on the literary analysis the authors conclude that, although the portrayal of Ekaterinburg / Sverdlovsk saved previously formed images of the city-worker, factory-city, the center of economic life of the mining region, special attention in the second half of the 1940s is beginning to give to the beauty to the urban landscape, the convenience of urban living, the dynamics of urban development. The action in the texts is carried out from apartments and factory shops to the streets, the characters are depicted not only in situations of heroic work and everyday survival, but as ordinary citizens, even idle flankers who notice the quality of their place of residence. It is concluded that such a significant change in the image of Ekaterinburg / Sverdlovsk is associated, on the one hand, with changes in notion of the previous stages of the history of the city, on the other hand, with the desire of the Sverdlovsk Writers’ Organization to prove its self-sufficiency.

Effect of inulin concentration on physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity of date powders obtained by hot-air tray dryer
Authors: AKSOYLU ÖZBEK Zeynep , ÇELİK Kıvılcım , GUNC ERGONUL Pelin
Published: March 2021

In the present study, it was aimed to produce free-flowing date powders using various levels of inulin as drying-aid agent (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%) through hot-air drying at 60°C for 24 h. Effects of different inulin ratios on physicochemical properties of date powders were investigated. This is the first report which evaluated the suitability of this prebiotic carbohydrate as drying-aid agent to fabricate date powders. Inulin addition yielded date powders with high flowability. On the other hand, contents of bioactive compounds including total phenolics, flavonoids, and condensed tannins of date powders decreased significantly (P<0.05) as the inulin concentration increased from 10% to 50% Accordingly, DPPH-radical inhibition capacities reduced in date powders containing higher levels of inulin. Furthermore, significant correlations were detected between bioactives contents and antioxidant activity of date samples. The results showed that free-flowing date powders with improved prebiotic content may be produced by incorporating inulin up to ratio of 50% and used as sugar substitute in different food products.

Correlation of inhibitions to structural aspects of chloroplast proteins: A murburn perspective
Authors: Manoj Kelath Murali , Gideon Daniel Andrew , Nirusimhan Vijay
Published: March 2021

In this manuscript, we we first present a brief review of the structural awareness on chloroplasts, the two photosystems (PS I & PS II, along with the respective light harvesting complexes and chlorophyll binding proteins). Thereafter, with an in silico approach, we attempt to correlate the photoactive proteins’ inhibition by various class of molecules, particularly weedicides. The prevailing understanding relies on topographical-affinity driven binding based explanations for electron transfers and inhibitions. The murburn model of photosynthesis deems DROS (diffusible reactive oxygen species) mediated constructive outcomes as the physiological mechanism for overall outcomes. We unravel key anomalous observations on the inhibitory aspects of the photosynthetic machinery, which were also noted in DROS involving systems like microsomal xenobiotic metabolism and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Via a comparative logic and applying Ockham’s razor, we infer that inhibitory outcomes in several photolysis-photophosphorylation processes are better explained by the murburn model.
On the generation of self-similar with long-range dependent traffic using piecewise affine chaotic one-dimensional maps (extended version)
Authors: Millán Ginno
Published: March 2021

A qualitative and quantitative extension of the chaotic models used to generate self-similar traffic with long-range dependence (LRD) is presented by means of the formulation of a model that considers the use of piecewise affine one-dimensional maps. Based on the disaggregation of the temporal series generated, a valid explanation of the behavior of the values of Hurst exponent is proposed and the feasibility of their control from the parameters of the proposed model is shown.

Originally it was considered that the times between arrivals of the demands of the users were independent of each other, as well as the same quantity of the demand (times between calls and duration of the calls, times between arrival of packages and length of the packages, times between requests for connections and length of sessions, etc.). Later, it was necessary to include the effect of the existing correlation between these variables, for which more elaborate models were developed in which the correlation declined exponentially with time. However, it has recently been shown that in modern communications networks, the correlation between these variables does not decay as rapidly and can persist across many time scales. This phenomenon, which significantly affects the performance of communications networks, can be adequately represented by fractal or autosimilar and multifractal traffic models. This article presents the basal concepts that are involved in the study of these models, in order to facilitate the reader introduction to the specialized literature on the subject.

Inclusion of long-range dependent temporary correlations and self-similar patterns in IEEE 802.3 network models
Authors: Millán Ginno
Published: March 2021

The foundation of a research project about a model of computer networks with media access control mechanism based on the IEEE standard 802.3-2005 is presented. The model draws from the theory of self-similar sets for establishing the impact level that the long-range-dependent temporary correlations have on the performance of such networks. A new method for the estimation of self-similar levels based on a variation of the Whittle estimator is postulated.

Differential expression of BUB1B in cancers of the breast.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: March 2021

Breast cancer affects women at relatively high frequency (1). We mined published microarray datasets (2, 3) to determine in an unbiased fashion and at the systems level genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with breast cancer. We report here significant differential expression of the gene encoding the BUB1 mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine kinase B, BUB1B, when comparing primary tumors of the breast to the tissue of origin, the normal breast. BUB1B was also differentially expressed in the tumor cells of patients with triple negative breast cancer. BUB1B mRNA was present at significantly higher quantities in tumors of the breast as compared to normal breast tissue. Analysis of human survival data revealed that expression of BUB1B in primary tumors of the breast was correlated with overall survival in patients with basal and luminal A subtype cancer, but in a contrary manner. BUB1B may be of relevance to initiation, maintenance or progression of cancers of the female breast.
ggsignif: R Package for Displaying Significance Brackets for 'ggplot2'
Authors: Ahlmann-Eltze Constantin , Patil Indrajeet
Published: March 2021

Research hypotheses are often concerned with the difference between two groups and statistical tests provide indicators (like p-values or Bayes factors) about the evidence for or against such differences. The R package, ggsignif provides a quick way to visualize such pairwise indicators as an annotation in a plot, for example showing if a difference is statistically significant. ggsignif follows the principles of the grammar of graphics (Wilkinson, 2012) and provides a new layer that can be added to plots made with the ggplot2 package (Wickham, 2016).
Sample Characteristics and Country Level Indicators Influencing the Relationship Between Biculturalism and Adjustment: An Updated Meta-Analysis
Authors: Stogianni Maria , Bender Michael , Sleegers Willem , BENET-MARTINEZ VERONICA , Nguyen Angela-MinhTu
Published: March 2021

A considerable number of studies have explored the relationship between biculturalism and different types of adjustment (psychological, sociocultural, health-related), showing that individuals who are highly engaged in both their heritage and the dominant culture demonstrate positive adjustment outcomes in various life domains. In the present study, we investigated the biculturalism-adjustment hypothesis in different samples from diverse cultural backgrounds, extending the meta-analysis of Nguyen and Benet-Martinez (2013). We conducted an updated meta-analysis that included 90 new studies. We assessed the magnitude of the relation between biculturalism and adjustment, and whether it remains stronger compared to the single cultural orientations (i.e., host, heritage). We further investigated the role of moderators for the association between biculturalism and adjustment: sample characteristics (e.g., gender, migration status, cultural group membership), the manner in which biculturalism is operationalized (unilinear, bilinear typological), and in what way the societal context in which people reside amplifies or dampens the effect size (i.e., degree to which integration policies are benevolent, socioeconomic status indexed by the HDI [Human Development Index], and global fit/distance between host and heritage cultural background). The findings confirmed that there is a positive relationship between biculturalism and adjustment which is stronger than the relationship between adjustment and heritage culture orientation. This relationship was moderated by the way in which biculturalism was assessed and the type of adjustment. Importantly, we did not see indications for the presence of publication bias. We formulated recommendations for future studies on biculturalism.
Understanding Mechanisms Behind Discrimination Using Diffusion Decision Modeling
Authors: Axt Jordan , Johnson David Jeffrey
Published: March 2021

Past research has documented where discrimination occurs or tested interventions that reduce discrimination. Less is known about how discriminatory behavior emerges and the mechanisms through which successful interventions work. Two studies (N > 4500) apply the Diffusion Decision Model (DDM) to the Judgment Bias Task, a measure of discrimination. In control conditions, participants gave preferential treatment (acceptance to a hypothetical honor society) to physically attractive applicants. DDM analyses revealed participants initially favored attractive candidates and attractiveness was accumulated as evidence of being qualified. Two interventions—raising awareness of bias and asking for more deliberative judgments—reduced discrimination through separate mechanisms. Raising awareness reduced biases in drift rates while increasing deliberation raised decision thresholds. This work offers insight into how discrimination emerges and may aid efforts to develop interventions to lessen discrimination.
There Is No Psychology Without Inferential Statistics
Authors: Alzahawi Shilaan , Monin Benoît
Published: March 2021

Quantification has been constitutive of psychology since its inception and is core to its scientific status. The adoption of qualitative methods eschewing inferential statistics is therefore unlikely to obtain. Rather than discarding useful tools because of improper use, we recommend highlighting how inferential statistics can be more thoughtfully applied.
Within and Cross-Domain Effects of Choice-Induced Bias
Authors: Zajkowski Wojciech , Zhang Jiaxiang
Published: March 2021

Recent evidence suggests choices influence evaluation, giving rise to choice-induced bias. It is however unknown whether this phenomenon is constrained to the domain of choice, or spans across domains, allowing a decision to influence evaluation of unrelated item-specific information. In a set of 5 experiments (4 preregistered, total of 425 participants) we show that people can be influenced by their choices not only when the choices are relevant to the evaluation (within-domain), but also when they are not (across-domains), and explore the differences between the two. Our generative cognitive model reveals that the bias is driven jointly by two mechanisms: a domain-general, conflict-sensitive consistency bias, and a domain-specific value-update. These two mechanisms can be mapped to two prevalent theories of choice-induced bias: cognitive dissonance, and self-perception theory.

Vulnerability in the neighbourhood: A study of gender differences in perceptions of control
Authors: Keel Chloe , Wickes Rebecca , Lee Murray , Jackson Jonathan , Beiner Kathryn
Published: March 2021

Women perceive themselves as more vulnerable to crime than men, and report greater sensitivity to risk in their environmental context. This heightened sense of vulnerability is associated with women’s perceptions of control over victimisation. Yet, the specific features of neighbourhoods that foster perceptions of control are not well understood. Drawing upon administrative data and a survey of 80 neighbourhoods and 2,862 participants in Victoria, Australia, we test whether gendered neighbourhood-level inequalities or broader neighbourhood characteristics are associated with lower perceived control over victimisation for women. Results indicate that gendered neighbourhood inequalities are less important for women’s perceptions of control compared to men. However, women’s perceptions of control are lower than men’s in neighbourhoods with lower collective efficacy and higher disadvantage.

Chronic Inversion of Uterus Following Spontaneous Abortion: A Case Report
Authors: Manandhar Tara , Shah Deepa , Rijal Pappu
Published: March 2021

Uterine inversion is a rare entity but poses a serious threat if not diagnosed and managed timely. Here we present a case of chronic uterine inversion in a 30-year-old lady who presented in emergency with a mass coming out per vagina, blood mixed vaginal discharge, and lower pain abdomen for the last 15 days. She underwent laparotomy and was found to have uterine inversion. The patient was attempted for repositioning of uterus with the Huntington’s approach, but it was unsuccessful, hence Haultain’s operation was done with a total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingectomy with right-sided ovarian cystectomy for a dermoid cyst. Our case emphasizes the importance of keeping chronic uterine inversion as a differential diagnosis in women presenting with pain abdomen, mass, and bleeding per vagina, and with a recent history of second-trimester abortion. Timely recognition, especially in chronic inversion, will decrease the morbidity and mortality associated with this rare but life-threatening condition.
