Metaanalys av motionens roll i behandlingen av förstoppning
Authors: Weiser Thomas , Landes Sabine
Published: August 2022

Aktuella riktlinjer rekommenderar livsstilsförändringar (inklusive mer motion) som första åtgärd vid behandling av förstoppning. Denna metaanalys undersökte vilken inverkan motionsbehandling hade på symtomen för patienter med kronisk förstoppning. Ungefär hälften av deltagarna i ett motionsprogram som varade i flera veckor upplevde en positiv inverkan på sina symtom. Studier med laxermedlen bisakodyl och natriumpikosulfat visade att dessa i allmänhet lindrade symtomen till och med inom en dag efter behandlingsstart.
Farmakokinetik hos ibuprofen: jämförelse av den fasta kombinationen ibuprofen plus koffein med ibuprofenlysinat och ibuprofen som syra
Authors: Weiser Thomas
Published: August 2022

Analgetika som innehåller lättlösligt ibuprofen (t.ex. som lysinat) utvecklades i syfte att säkerställa snabbare smärtlindring än ibuprofen som syra genom snabbare absorption i mag-tarmkanalen. Då graden av magsäcksfyllnad kan påverka absorption signifikant undersökte man i två studier farmakokinetiken för ibuprofenlysinat och ibuprofen som syra (i kombination med koffein) på tom (fastande) mage och efter en normal frukost. Absorption av ibuprofen som lysinat var enbart snabbare när det togs på fastande mage; efter en normal frukost var tiden till maximala plasmakoncentrationer för ibuprofen som syra (med koffein) faktiskt kortare än för ibuprofenlysinat. Eftersom analgetika vanligtvis inte tas på fastande mage förtar detta de påstådda fördelarna med ibuprofenlysinat.
Здрави възрастни, страдащи от тежък стрес и хипомагнезиемия, се повлияват добре от комбинация на магнезий с витамин В6
Authors: Eberlin Marion
Published: August 2022

Това рандомизирано, едностранно сляпо клинично проучване изследва ефектите на добавка, съдържаща магнезий, с комбинираното приложение на магнезий и витамин В6. Въпреки че не бяха установени значителни различия между рамената по изпитването в случаите на умерен стрес, пациентите с хипомагнезиемия, изложени на тежък или много тежък стрес, се повлияха добре от комбинацията на магнезий с витамин В6.

Sur un total de 538 patients, des troubles du sommeil induits par les médicaments n'ont été constatés que chez un à deux sur 100 participants. Dans l'une des deux études, 0,8% seulement des participants ont rapporté des troubles du sommeil - exactement le même pourcentage que dans le groupe placebo.
Да заспите бързо и да се събудите ободрени!
Authors: Schuett Tanja
Published: August 2022

Различни причини, включително стрес и повишено излагане на медии, водят до намаляване или дори до пълното отсъствие на отделянето на ендогенен мелатонин, което води до проблеми със заспиването. Според Европейския орган за безопасност на храните (ЕОБХ), ако малко преди лягане се приема 1 mg мелатонин, „мелатонинът помага да се намали времето за заспиване“. По-високите дози при иначе здрави индивиди не са свързани с подобряване на ефекта върху латентността на настъпване на съня.

Общая характеристика керамики из поселений эпохи бронзы Жезказган-Улытауского региона
Authors: Калиева Жанаргуль Сериковна
Published: August 2022

Статья посвящена общей характеристике керамических коллекций из поселений эпохи бронзы Жезказган-Улытауского региона на основе изучения материалов памятников Талдысай и Балкан В статье представлены промежуточные результаты технико-технологического анализа исходного сырья глины, определены способы составления формовочных масс сосудов, выявлены включения органики и шамота, способы обработки поверхности. Проведен сравнительный анализ материалов из поселений Талдысай и Балкан. Среди общих признаков керамики названных поселений выделяется наличие примеси тальковой дресвы в качестве огнеупорного материала. Тальк, возможно, использовался древними гончарами для ограничения усадки и исключения деформации формы сосуда при обжиге. Особенностью керамики поселения Талдысай является наличие в тесте керамических изделий сырья и отходов металлургического производства, а именно шлаков и руды, что указывает на особую роль металлургии в культуре древнего населения региона. Результаты анализа керамики Талдысай и Балкан указывают на то, что названные поселения существовали синхронно в определенный отрезок времени, а именно в позднем бронзовом веке. Данный аспект наталкивает на мысль о возможной гомогенности населения объектов, либо же указывает на культурное взаимодействие населения локального микрорайона.

Use the Plasma Equation to Find the Statistical Distribution Laws of Unbalanced Systems
Authors: Ali Elamin Abdelnabi , Dirar Abd-Alla Yagoub Mubarak
Published: August 2022

The plasma equation of motion of particles in the presence of afield potential per particle and a pressures force beside a resistive force have been used to find a useful expression of thermal pressure and non-thermal pressure. Another expression of ordinary Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution and Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution with stands for the kinetic energy is derived from the plasma equation with respect to x due to the potential changes only and due to potential changes with change in the density of the number of particles respectively. For non-uniform temperature systems, and non-uniform potential energy per particle, the statistical distribution law is described. This relation is different from where the temperature is assumed to be uniform when the thermal pressure changes due to the temperature change. The statistical distribution law is described when  the thermal pressure change due to the temperature change. This relation is different from where the thermal pressure changes due to the change of both particle number density and temperature in this case the plasma equation. Also Statistical Distribution Law from the Plasma Equation in the Presence of Friction has been derived.

Estimating returns to education: The control function approach
Authors: Çelik Keçili Merve , Esen Ethem
Published: August 2022

This study aims to evaluate the effect of schooling years on wage level in Turkey by using the Mincer wage equation. This function is used as the baseline for the investigation of earnings determinants. For this purpose, the relationship between wage and education level of people is estimated by using a semiparametric regression model considering the control function approach. Various variables such as education level, experience, gender and marital status are estimated separately in the wage model by utilizing the Household Budget Statistics micro data set of 2017 in Turkey obtained by the Turkish Statistical Institute. The parametric model does not clarify the model clearly when functional form of relation is not known. To overcome this drawback, semiparametric regression model, which contains parametric and nonparametric variables, can be successfully applied. This model is extended by adding the 1997 education reform as a control variable. The achieved semiparametric test results from this study showed that there is a positive relationship between schooling years and wage level. On the other hand, control function approach results indicate the existence of fluctuant progress for the effect of schooling years on the wage level along the period.

Nurses knowledge, awareness and confidence level to recognize stroke symptoms specific to women: A cross-sectional study
Authors: Colsch Renee
Published: August 2022

Background: Stroke remains the third-leading cause of death and a major cause of disability in women. Men and women share common stroke symptoms. However, women can also experience “specific,” or “atypical” stroke symptoms. Early recognition of stroke and recognizing sex race-ethnic differences in stroke symptoms is crucial to better outcomes. Nurses play a crucial role in identifying stroke symptoms and activating care early. However, the general nurse’s knowledge and confidence level to recognize stroke in women is unknown. This study aimed to provide insight into nurse’s awareness, knowledge and confidence to recognize women's specific stroke symptoms.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted over four months. 129 nurses were recruited via targeted social media platforms to complete an online survey. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, and one-way ANOVA.Results: Nurses were 86% women, and 55% held advanced degrees. Over 80% identified the common stroke symptoms; over 70% identified the additional stroke symptoms. Less than 25% could identify specific stroke symptoms in women. A majority of the nurses (76%) lacked the confidence to recognize stroke symptoms in women, with confidence scores statistically lower in advanced level trained nurses.Conclusions: The majority of nurses know and feel confident that they could identify the most common and additional stroke symptoms. However, there are knowledge deficits, and nurses lack confidence in recognizing stroke symptoms in women. Education targeted at nurses should include strategies to enhance their awareness, knowledge and confidence level in recognizing stroke symptoms specific to women.
Adrenal Hemorrhage Versus Neuroblastoma in Newborn with Right Suprarenal Mass and Hypertension: A Case Report
Authors: Osman Mahmoud , Hamid Suzan , Kira Hussein , Alatar Adel , Alhazmi Ahmed
Published: August 2022

Adrenal hemorrhage is a potentially life-threatening condition that rarely presents in the neonatal period. The large size and increased vascularity of the average infant adrenal gland increase the tendency of bleeding. Predisposing factors may include macrosomia, birth asphyxia, perinatal injuries, septicemia, and coagulopathy. It can also occur without obvious risk factors. The most common presenting findings are poor feeding, vomiting, persistent jaundice, anemia, and abdominal mass. However, the event may be asymptomatic and be detected incidentally. Ultrasound imaging is the cornerstone of diagnosis and follow-up monitoring. Herein, we report an unusual case of a male newborn with an adrenal hemorrhage associated with hypertension. The lesion was detected by ultrasound as an echogenic cystic mass at the right suprarenal area. The mass was initially mimicking neuroblastoma. Nevertheless, the normal levels of urine catecholamine metabolites and the regression of the mass size verified the diagnosis. The infant was successfully managed conservatively, and the mass completely resolved without calcification or adrenal insufficiency.
Cumplimiento del ciclo de finalización en pregrado: Un estudio sobre licenciatura, egreso y titulación oportuna en la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales de la Universidad de Chile
Authors: Allende Pino Cristóbal , Arancibia Bustos Álvaro , Torres Llanos Constanza , Velasco San Martín Patricia
Published: August 2022

El aumento de la matrícula universitaria desde finales del siglo XX, tanto a nivel internacional como latinoamericano, ha transformado el panorama de las instituciones de educación superior. En ese contexto, una de las problemáticas fundamentales abordadas por la investigación y gestión en educación superior es la forma en que en estos nuevos escenarios se aseguran trayectorias académicas exitosas. Así, la presente investigación indaga en los factores que se corresponden con una licenciatura, egreso y titulación oportuna, en los estudiantes de la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales de la Universidad de Chile. Se utiliza el Análisis de Correspondencias Múltiples para integrar las variables de egreso, licenciatura y titulación oportuna, en conjunto con variables independientes socioeconómicas y académicas. Los resultados muestran que las calificaciones académicas previas a la universidad, y el desempeño dentro de la carrera, son variables que motivan una licenciatura y egreso más oportunos. Para el caso de Psicología, se observa correspondencia entre el nivel socioeconómico bajo y licenciatura y egreso oportuno, contrario a la intuición de que un menor nivel socioeconómico implicaría un peor desempeño. Así, resultaría interesante revisar en profundidad el caso de Psicología, buscando reconocer estrategias que permitan asegurar de forma exitosa la progresión académica de los estudiantes.
La “Diplomacia del Conocimiento”: Respuesta a los desafíos de la internacionalización de las IES
Authors: Salazar Dennis , Cao Aneris Mariana
Published: August 2022

El objetivo de este artículo es explorar una nueva forma de internacionalización de las Instituciones de Educación Superior (IES) a través del concepto de la “diplomacia del conocimiento”. Para ello, mediante un trabajo teórico-reflexivo estableceremos una relación triádica entre la diplomacia, las IES y el conocimiento. Partiendo de la definición de la ‘diplomacia del conocimiento’ de Jane Knight y vinculándola con los trabajos teóricos de la ‘diplomacia como mediación del extrañamiento’, trataremos de concebir una internacionalización más integral, inclusiva y transversal. Una internacionalización que, por un lado, nos permita mediar los múltiples extrañamientos que se generan en torno a los procesos de internacionalización y, por otro lado, responda a los retos del presente y del futuro de la educación superior. De esta manera, en este artículo de reflexión subrayaremos la transcendencia del conocimiento como pilar de la sociedad y la relevancia de las IES como actores que promueven el desarrollo del conocimiento mediante la cooperación y la colaboración; en definitiva, a través de la diplomacia.

Authors: Munguia Rina , Calderón Rutilia
Published: August 2022

La pandemia por el COVID-19 es visible en diferentes disciplinas, sectores y campos de acción y a su llegada la sociedad no estaba preparada para enfrentarla y contenerla. En las Instituciones de Educación Superior, la abrupta suspensión de las actividades presenciales de docencia, investigación y vinculación con la sociedad y gestión tuvo y continúa teniendo un fuerte impacto en la vida institucional. Existe una fuerte demanda interna y externa para hacer de la pandemia una oportunidad para que la Universidad se transforme, con el propósito de contribuir de manera más efectiva al desarrollo sostenible de los países y regiones. A partir de referentes teóricos y una base empírica construida, de la triangulación metodológica que integra aspectos cuantitativos y cualitativos, la revisión documental y de indicadores se argumentan y analizan los resultados del monitoreo de un Plan Estratégico para el Desarrollo de la Educación Superior en un país concreto. Esto, con el objetivo de establecer la planificación como proceso fundamental para que las universidades aborden de la manera más integral posible la complejidad, disminuyan los altos niveles de incertidumbre, logren unidad de criterios y acción en la diversidad y contribuyan desde el conocimiento científico a la superación de los principales problemas y retos que enfrentan nuestras sociedades y países durante la pandemia de COVID-19 y en la etapa de la pospandemia.

La Internacionalización de la Educación Superior desde perspectivas descolonizadoras: Una ruta posible
Authors: Romero Huesca Sonia Jaquelina , Sánchez Gutiérrez Maria Gabriela Guadalupe
Published: August 2022

En este artículo se analiza el tipo de internacionalización de la educación superior que se ha llevado a cabo en el marco de un modelo de desarrollo hegemónico, capitalista y neoliberal, así como sus efectos, particularmente en países del Sur o de la “periferia”, uno de ellos México. Se propone una reflexión general sobre dicho modelo y la construcción de algunas premisas desde perspectivas descolonizadoras que respondan desde el Sur y desde el empoderamiento de los actores locales y el reconocimiento de sus saberes y sus territorios. Para ello se lleva a cabo un análisis documental partiendo de marcos teórico-conceptuales construidos sobre todo desde América Latina, tomando como referente algunos aspectos de la realidad mexicana. Con base en estas reflexiones se presenta una posible ruta para llevar a cabo la internacionalización de la educación superior, partiendo del reconocimiento mutuo de los actores y de los saberes locales, de posturas co-construidas y planificadas desde lo local, del reconocimiento de los respectivos territorios donde están asentados y desde valores como la cooperación y el beneficio mutuo.
Factores incidentes en permanencia, rezago y egreso del profesorado en lengua inglesa de una universidad en Argentina
Authors: Somale Marisel Adriana , Bengoa Natalia , Ziraldo Ana Claudia , Díaz Gisela
Published: August 2022

El ingreso y la permanencia en la universidad son un derecho social que el Estado debe garantizar. Sin embargo, la deserción universitaria en la Argentina es una problemática compartida por diversas instituciones. En nuestro país, como en otros países latinoamericanos, la tasa de deserción es elevada. El Profesorado en Lengua Inglesa (PLI) de la Universidad Nacional de Villa María (UNVM) también experimenta esta situación. El número de estudiantes que se gradúa en tiempo real dista de lo establecido en el Plan de Estudios. Además, la tasa de deserción de quienes no logran cumplimentar los requisitos de graduación resulta relativamente elevada. El PLI de la UNVM presenta un escaso porcentaje de egresos en comparación con el índice de matrícula. Este estudio se basa en los postulados teóricos del Modelo de Integración Estudiantil y en la Teoría Fundamentada como estrategia para complementar la visión del objeto de estudio. Un estudio exploratorio y descriptivo con elementos de corte cualitativo y cuantitativo dividido en dos etapas permite identificar los factores académicos como principal causa incidente en la permanencia y en el rezago, lo cual explica en cierta medida el reducido índice de egreso.

Isothermal Modelling of the Adsorption of Cadmium onto Activated Carbon from Tridax procumbens
Authors: Ubana Muhammed Abdullahi , Ya'u Murtala , Basirun Ain Aqilah , Sabullah Mohd Khalizan , Yasid Nur Adeela , Shukor Mohd Yunus
Published: August 2022

There is currently no feasible method of recycling Cd compounds, despite the fact that Cd production, consumption, and environmental release have all skyrocketed in recent decades. This raises serious concerns about the potential dangers of Cd compounds to human health. This highlights the pressing need for cadmium pollution cleanup. Biosorption is one of several viable technologies with several advantages, including low operating costs, very efficient detoxification of toxicants at low concentrations, and a low amount of disposal materials. The biosorption of cadmium onto activated carbon from Tridax procumbens is remodeled using nonlinear regression and the optimal mode was determined by a series of error function assessments. The Freundlich model performed best in statistical tests including root-mean-square error (RMSE), adjusted coefficient of determination (adjR2), bias factor (BF), accuracy factor (AF), and corrected Akaike Information Criterion (AICc). This is in contrast to the published work using a linearized form where the Langmuir model best represents the biosorption. The calculated Freundlich parameters kF value using nonlinear regression was 1.501 (1/g) (95% confidence interval from 1.223 to 1.778) and nF value of 4.943 (95% C.I. from 3.492 to 6.393). Confidence intervals for the uncertainty range can be calculated using nonlinear modeling and then used for model comparison and discriminant analysis.
Macro- and Micropropagation of Moringa oleifera Lam (Moringaceae): A Mini Review
Authors: Bukar Sani Mai , Abba Halima Mohammed
Published: August 2022

The most popular member of the family Moringaceae is Moringa oleifera Lam. While originally from the western sub-Himalayas, India, Pakistan, Asia, and Africa, this plant has since found its way around the world. Growth of the plant is slow in areas with harsh climates, despite evidence of its excellent adaptability in tropical regions. Moringa oleifera has been studied for its potential as a biodiesel source, as well as its usage as a natural coagulant for water purification. The maturation period of Moringa oleifera is rather long because it is frequently cultivated from seeds. Therefore, it is currently unable to meet the growing demand for this species to fulfil its many household, nutritional, economic, and medical purposes. This review covers the uses and the establishment, maintenance, and development of mass propagation of the plant. The review also covers extensive parts of the plant, from a single cell to an entire plant, under artificial and axenic conditions is the focus of plant tissue culture (PTC), which is an integral part of Plant Biotechnology due to the many benefits it offers over traditional methods of propagation. Plant hormones have been shown to improve the success of vegetative propagation from cuttings, but in order to obtain uniform planting materials, tissue culture techniques involving plant materials like nodal segments, indirect organogenesis, multiplication using immature seeds, and regeneration of axillary cotyledons and buds are preferable.
Antioxidant Vitamins and Minerals Composition of Fresh Carrot-Cabbage Juice
Authors: Sani Abbas , Sani Sanusi
Published: August 2022

Antioxidants are substances that protect cells from the damages caused by free radicals. Fruit and vegetables are rich in antioxidants and provide important sources of antioxidants. While the quest for an antioxidant supplement is ongoing, this study investigated the antioxidant vitamins and minerals composition of fresh carrot-cabbage juice. Antioxidant vitamins and minerals compositions of the juice were determined by standard methods using spectrophotometry and atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS) respectively. The concentration of antioxidant vitamins was found to be in the order; vitamin C > vitamin A > vitamin E. However, manganese has the highest concentration (P < 0.05) among minerals. There is no significant difference between the concentrations of manganese and copper (P > 0.05). The concentration of chromium is significantly lower (P < 0.05) than that of manganese and copper but greater (P < 0.05) than that of zinc. The study showed that fresh carrot-cabbage juice contains a respective concentration of antioxidant vitamins (A, C and E) and antioxidant minerals (Cu, Cr, Mn and Zn). The juice is hence a good source of antioxidant vitamins and minerals and may help complement the antioxidant system of the body.
Efficacy of Biochar and NPK Fertilizer on Soil Properties and Yield of Okra (Abelmeschus esculentus L.) in Guinea Savanna Region of Nigeria
Authors: Ibrahim Ibrahim Iro

The efficacy of biochar and NPK fertilizer on soil properties and yield of okra (Abelmeschus esculentus L.) is the central theme in this study. A randomized complete block design (RCBD) was used involving four (4) biochar rates (5, 10, 15 and 20 t/ha) and four (4) NPK (20:10:10) fertilizer rates (0, 100, 150 and 200 kg/ha) arranged factorially in 4 x 4 treatment combinations. Rice husk was used to make biochar since it was readily available and accessible in the study location. soil samples were collected at random locations on the field from two depths (0-15 cm and 15-30 cm) for analysis using standard procedure. Data were collected on plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, stem girth, days to 50% flowering, number of fruits per plant, fruit length, the weight of fruits and total yield. The result shows that biochar application at 20t/ha produced the highest plant height (67.75 cm), number of leaves(31.42), number of branches (16.00), stem girth (2.44 cm), number of fruit/plant (72.00), fruit length (14.33 cm), fruit weight (770.17 g) and total yield (855.74 kg/ha). Similarly, NPK at 200 kg/ha gave higher plant height (61.08 cm), number of leaves(26.75), number of fruit/plant (57.00), fruit weight (560.50 g) and total yield (622.78 kg/ha). The combination of 150 kg/ha and 200 kg/ha NPK fertilizer with 20 kg/ha biochar produced the highest yield (938.89 and 934.45 kg/ha) of okra which was at par. It can therefore be recommended that farmers in the study area can use biochar at 20 t/ha and NPK fertilizer at 150 kg/ha for optimum production of the okra plant.

Herbicides’ toxic impact on the non-target soil microorganisms which play roles in degrading organic matter, nitrogen and nutrient recycling and decomposition needs to be considered. In the present study, the effect of four (4) most commonly used herbicides, viz; atrazine, 2, 4- D amine, glyphosate and paraquat on soil microorganisms was assessed over a period of fifteen continuous days (exposure period). The herbicide treatments were the normal recommended field rate, (6.67 mg active ingredient per gram of soil for atrazine, 6.17 mg for 2, 4-D amine, 5.56 mg for glyphosate, and 2.46 mg for paraquat), half and double of the recommended field rates. Tables 4.1 through 4.5 showed the various heterotrophic bacterial colony counts obtained from the various treatments, ranging from the control (Day 1; no herbicide applied) to days 3, 6, 9 and 15 after the application of the various herbicides, respectively. Two general trends are readily observed: the first is that, upon application of the herbicide, the microbial growth steadily diminishes, up to the 6th day. However, from there it continues to increase till the end of the experiments (day 15). This applies to each herbicide. Firstly, the effect of the addition of the various herbicides was evaluated using two samples, a two-tailed Z-Test for means, at a 95% confidence interval, and the results showed that there is a difference in the bacterial counts before the application of the herbicides (Day 0) and immediately after (day 3), and the difference is statistically significant (Z = 3.32, Z critical = 1.96, P = 0.00090). This indicates that the application of the herbicides affects the bacterial population.
Activation energy, Temperature Coefficient and Q10 Value Estimations of the Growth of Serratia marcescens strain DRY6 on SDS
Authors: Aisami Abubakar
Published: August 2022

Sodium dodecyl sulfate, occasionally known as SDS, is a widely used anionic surfactant globally as a foaming component in a wide variety of cleaning products, including shampoos, toothpaste, and detergents. Large quantities of SDS are released into the environment despite the fact that they are hazardous and have the ability to create foam. This can lead to problems in sewage treatment facilities. There are a few different models that may be utilized to mimic the growth rate of microbes on a variety of different medium at various temperature. Arrhenius is one of the most often used models partly since it has a small number of parameters. Temperature frequently influences the progress and metabolic activities of microbes on the substrates they are growing on. Because of their small size, microbes are very sensitive to variations in temperature. In order to describe the development of Serratia marcescens strain DRY6 on SDS, a discontinuous apparent activation energy with a chevron-like graph was used, and the graph's break point was set at 28.05 degrees Celsius. Following the completion of the regression study, two activation temperatures were established: 20-27 degrees Celsius and 30-42 degrees Celsius, with respective activation energies of 41.72 and 84.72 kilojoules per mole. Within the temperature range that was taken into account, it was projected that the Q10 value would be 2.905, and the theta value would be 1.11. (30-42 oC). This study is especially helpful in projecting SDS breakdown and migration during bioremediation because of its comprehensive nature.

This study was carried out to examine the effect of selected fruit peels on growth and yield of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus). 10g of ground fruit peels of banana, watermelon, pawpaw, pineapple, plantain, orange was applied to 7 kg of soil and left for 7 days before planting of okra seed. NPK (15:15:15) serves as positive control while groups without fertilizer served as negative control for the study. Each treatment was replicated five times in polythene bags used as pots and watered every three days. The setup was arranged in Completely Randomized Block Design (CRBD). Plant height and stem girth were measured while number of leaves were also counted from 1 to 8 Week After Planting. The numbers of days to 50% flowering, pod length and pod diameter were also recorded from 1 to 8 Week After Planting. Data pooled in this study were subjected to Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and means with statistically significant difference at p<0.05 were separated using Duncan Multiple Range Test. Generally, results across weeks showed statistically significant difference for plant height, number of leaves, stem girth, days to 50% flowering, number of fruit and pod length while only the diameters of fruits did not respond to different nutrient sources. Okra grown with banana and watermelon peels gave the best overall performance which indicates that they contained sufficient nutrients for optimum production of okra. This study clearly indicates that banana and watermelon fruit peels could be used singly or in combination to effectively boost yield of okra.
World-Traveling to Redesign a Map for Migrant Women: Humanitarian Technical Communication in Praxis
Authors: Aguilar Gabriel Lorenzo
Published: August 2022

Purpose: Humanitarian audiences are inaccessible to our traditional methods of research. Audiences like migrants often rely on technical communication to find humanitarian aid; however, there are few methodologies that can help us improve materials for them. This project explores
world-traveling to demonstrate how the methods of other fields can help us take a proactive approach in critiquing and improving the technical communication from humanitarian operations. Methods:World-traveling is the practice of seeing through another's eyes to anticipate what
they may need (Lugones, 2003). It calls us to travel from our privileged "worlds," spaces we inhabit as scholars, into the worlds of vulnerable populations. The practice helps researchers understand the worlds of marginalized populations and help them. I world-travel to migrant women in an
archive to improve a map that migrants use to find water in the Arizona desert.Results: World-traveling allowed me to anticipate problems. I found that migrant women are at a much higher risk of death by exposure than men and that the current maps of water hide this risk. I redesigned
the map with the intent to lessen the risk of death by exposure for migrant women. The redesign made it clear that women are at risk of a certain harm while also taking steps to humanize the women displayed on the map. Conclusion: World-traveling allowed me to show migrant women
the increased risk of death by exposure through a redesigned map. The result is more useful and humane technical communication.

In Hungary, the amateur theatre movement is acknowledged to have had a significant tradition within child, student and youth theatre, therefore this paper seeks to answer the question: how is a student theatre group leader-director ‘born,’ how does one become one? What do the words ‘student director,’ ‘student theatre director,’ ‘group leader,’ ‘extracurricular project leader,’ and ‘theatrical workshop leader’ mean?
Brechttel vitázva – Bond posztstrukturalista esztétikájának politikussága
Authors: Katafiasz Kate
Published: August 2022

This article challenges David Allen’s conclusion, following his production of Edward Bond’s The Children, that the play is essentially didactic, a ‘new form of Lehrstück’ (Allen 2007). I will focus on one particular action (the slow raising of a towel from this production) to argue that Brechtian denaturalisation (which comprises a modernist challenge to social values by championing their binary opposites) is unhelpful when applied to Bond’s work. This is because Bond acknowledges the post-structuralist collapse of binary (moral) values. All drama uses a live combination of language and image, opening up an (Oedipal) gap between symbolisation and sensation. It is argued here that the Verfremdung sutures this gap, fulfilling the role of ideology by prioritising rational thought. The Bondian ‘centre’, on the other hand, can be seen to technically incorporate Jacques Lacan’s ‘lack’ into the symbolic by challenging the logic of the signifier with physicality.
